Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!

Chapter 67 Nezha: I'm definitely going to take this old flame back!

Nezha's assistant suddenly shouted this out to Chen Xiu.

The three people at the table looked at each other in bewilderment, and then Chen Xiu remembered the role she was playing.

Have you watched "My Sunshine"?

"Yes! Teacher Chen, your portrayal of He Yichen really captured the feeling of a college heartthrob."

The assistant clenched her hands, a shy smile appearing on her face.

She looked quite young; she was probably a senior in college doing an internship, or had just graduated not long ago...

The other party was so friendly that Chen Xiu returned a polite smile: "Thank you. I only appeared in three episodes of 'My Sunshine,' I didn't expect you to remember me."

"My Sunshine" premiered on the 10th, and Tang Yan even took leave from the production team to promote it.

Chen Xiu, being a minor actress whose status was difficult to determine, didn't go along.

Seeing Chen Xiu's gentle demeanor, the assistant relaxed considerably: "I remember, Teacher Chen, there are many people discussing you online right now, and there are even trending topics about you on Weibo."

"Really? I don't usually check Weibo, I haven't paid attention to this."

Chen Xiu didn't seem to care much, and didn't think that a minor supporting character who appeared in three episodes could become very popular.

Of course, whether it becomes popular or not is not actually within his consideration.

Hearing him say that, the assistant was momentarily at a loss for words.

Meng Ziyi and Nezha, who were sitting face to face, almost simultaneously figured out what the two were talking about.

"Brother Xiu, your drama has aired?"

"Chen Xiu, your role has become a hit?"

Two questions were thrown at Chen Xiu, one after the other.

Chen Xiu first looked at Meng Ziyi, then followed her gaze to Nazha. From their intertwined eyes, he sensed that the tension at the table was getting a bit too intense.

“It was a short drama I acted in last June, which only took 10 days to film.”

After saying that, Chen Xiu picked up another xiaolongbao and stuffed it into her mouth, thinking that she should finish eating quickly and then take Meng Ziyi away from this troublesome place.

However, a battle between women doesn't require a formal declaration of war...

"Brother Xiu, I want to eat xiaolongbao, can you get me one?"

Meng Ziyi slightly opened his mouth and gave Naza a provocative glance.

Although Chen Xiu thought Meng Ziyi's actions were a bit childish, she still picked up a small steamed bun, blew on it to cool it down, and then fed it to Meng Ziyi.

While eating the xiaolongbao, Meng Ziyi looked quite smug, thinking to himself, "Where did this guy come to share a table with me? He's just asking for trouble!"
Faced with Meng Ziyi's lovey-dovey basic attack, Nezha also unleashed his ultimate move, a flashback attack that could kill the enemy and win back his love.

"Chen Xiu, do you remember the breakfast we had on our first day in Jinxiu Jiayuan?"

"Ok??"

Meng Ziyi stopped chewing the xiaolongbao in her mouth and turned to look at Chen Xiu beside her.

"Um???"

Nezha's assistant also had an expression that said he had been caught off guard by some juicy gossip.

She was also wondering why her artist, who clearly had no scenes to film today, had gotten up so early and then dragged her to the restaurant where they had been sitting since morning...

So it was all because of an old flame?!
Wait a minute, Nezha is chasing after her ex... Ugh... Should I tell K-jie? She gave me a death order to keep a close eye on Nezha. I'm so conflicted!

The assistant was inwardly agonizing, but the other three people at the table treated her as if she were invisible.

"That happened so long ago, how could I possibly remember it?"

Chen Xiu chuckled and shook her head, her performance remaining consistently strong. Meng Ziyi's lips unconsciously curled up slightly.

However, Nezha dared to use this ultimate move, so it must have been combined with a set of skills.

"Take a look, is this what you're looking for?" Nazar pushed the plate forward, on which were placed the most ordinary boiled eggs, steamed buns, and corn on the cob.

Chen Xiu paused for a moment, but recovered quickly: "It seems you quite like eating these things."

“I remember, back then, you would always get up earlier to prepare breakfast…”

"I'm stuffed!"

Meng Ziyi quickly emptied his bowl of tofu pudding and placed it heavily on the table, thus interrupting Nezha's chanting and spellcasting.

Meeting Naza's glaring gaze, Meng Ziyi's body suddenly went limp, leaning against Chen Xiu's shoulder and reaching out to take his arm.

"Hey Xiu-ge, are you full? If you are, let's go out and play soon!"

"Yes, I'm done eating."

Chen Xiu held Meng Ziyi's hand and gently pinched it, indicating that if she had simply changed tables earlier, none of this would have happened.

The silly beauty pretended not to understand and chuckled. As she got up from her seat, she glanced sideways at Naza, thinking to herself with even more smug satisfaction.

"So what if you have flashbacks?"

"I'm the one standing next to Xiu-ge now! You want to go back to your ex? No way!"

When Meng Ziyi reached the door, she turned back and gave Nezha a smug smile, then took Chen Xiu's arm and left the restaurant.

Watching Chen Xiu leave, Nezha began peeling eggs on his own.

The assistant, who had been ignored for a long time, finally found an opportunity to ask Nezha for advice on her dilemma: "Sister Nezha, what about you and Teacher Chen?"

“I’ve spoken to him about this, and K-jie knows about it too, so you don’t need to go through the trouble of reporting it!”

Nazar peeled the eggshells, squeezed out the yolks, and ate only the egg whites.

Her depressed state made her assistant, who had initially wanted to say more, start stammering.

"Sister Nezha, um..."

"What do you want to say?"

"I feel like you really liked Teacher Chen, so why did you break up with him back then?"

"Hehe, at that time, I wasn't famous, so of course I wanted to be famous. I originally thought he would wait for me or debut with me, but he broke up with me that day."

Nezha chewed the egg white in his mouth, his expression somewhat bitter.

Normally, celebrities shouldn't talk about such private topics with their assistants, but right now she desperately needs someone to be her emotional confidante.

Nezha swallowed a large mouthful of egg white, then suddenly turned around and grabbed his assistant: "Xiaoyue, do you think I can win Chen Xiu back?"

"Sister Nezha, you want to go back to your ex?!"

"Look, do I still have a chance?"

Looking at the somewhat dazed Nezha, Xiaoyue swallowed hard, instinctively feeling that if she didn't answer well, the consequences would be severe.

"You're so beautiful, if you really want to eat—no, to win back Teacher Chen—you still have a chance, right?"

"But he has a girlfriend now!"

"Maybe they'll break up someday?"

"What did you say?"

Nezha stared wide-eyed at Xiaoyue, as if he had grasped some key element.

"I mean, maybe Teacher Chen and Meng Ziyi will break up in the future..."

"Yes! As long as I try my best to win her back, Chen Xiu will definitely accept me again."

A smile bloomed on Na Zha's face, making her look so beautiful and charming that the male actors who came in couldn't help but turn their heads. But unfortunately, her love-struck mind had already taken the shape of someone else.
