"Did I hear that right, Ah Qing?"

"No, Xiaoxiao, Brother Zhongze is going to spend money on us!"

"The three of us used to chip in to support him in the charts. Sometimes he even asked us to send him the money directly, saying it was an investment in advance. Is he now going to give back to us?"

The three women's words caused Liu Zhongze, Jiang Yue, and Xie Yukai's expressions to change simultaneously, and they all had different thoughts about each other.

Jiang Yue calmed down. Perhaps it was too abnormal for her to be so curious about him just because she watched a TV series. She needed to control her behavior.

Xie Yukai secretly wrote down what he heard in his phone's notes app, as if he had some kind of secret.

Liu Zhongze sighed. Who told his predecessor to be so irresponsible? He could only atone for his predecessor's sins.

"Is it okay if I rent the apartment downstairs from us?"

After Liu Zhongze finished speaking, he went to the front desk to book two more rooms.

The three girls waved their hands with smiles, and Wang Xiaoxiao said, "No need, we've booked three rooms in the shopping street ahead. Has Brother Zhongze forgotten Xiaoxiao's capabilities?"

"Yes, Brother Zhongze, Xiaoxiao is an only child in Jiangcheng. She doesn't need to worry about anything in life. Xiaoxiao helps with all the travel arrangements."

Huang Qing pointed ahead towards the noodle shop and said, "It's right there. There are several restaurants downstairs, and it looks like they're doing pretty well."

Wang Xiaoxiao shrugged and said nostalgically, "It's been so long since I've voted for Zhongze-gege. I really miss it."

"yes."

Liu Zhongze asked them a few more questions and found that the three of them answered his questions perfectly, even more obedient than children. Was this the power of idols? Liu Zhongze couldn't figure it out.

Perhaps others would have gone back to their rooms to rest at this time, but Liu Zhongze would not. He tried his best to maintain good relations with these three fans, even if they were just fans of his predecessor.

Jiang Yue smiled gently. The slight misunderstanding she had with Liu Zhongze earlier disappeared after seeing how genuinely he cared about his fans.

After watching the TV series about the Ugly President, she was amused by the plot and became curious about the main character, Thomson, and even considered becoming his best friend. She hoped that Thomson, off-screen, could help her become a happy woman.

Although it was a naive idea at the moment, it fermented during the week that Liu Zhongze disappeared, and her strong curiosity eventually led her to maintain such high enthusiasm during her first actual contact with Liu Zhongze.

Xie Yukai was mesmerized. He never imagined that a girl's mere smile could be enough to make his heart tremble.

He has seen many female stars in TV dramas and met some female internet celebrities in person. He knows that they are not as good-looking as they appear on camera. Some are enhanced by special effects, some by makeup, or both.

But none of them could compare to the girl before him. Her natural, cool, and slightly alluring aura made him understand for the first time what it meant to fall in love at first sight.

"Let's go to where you're staying. There's a really good noodle shop there. I'll treat you to a meal."

Liu Zhongze looked at Jiang Yue and Xie Yukai who had followed behind him and asked, "Why are you following us?"

Xie Yukai was unsure about his relationship with Jiang Yue, so he didn't speak but waited for Jiang Yue's answer.

"Didn't my brother ask you to take good care of me? What? You tricked me into coming here and now you're turning your back on me?"

Jiang Yue's joke immediately changed the expressions of the three female fans.

Although Liu Zhongze, who has been in the industry for 25 years, doesn't usually flirt, it doesn't mean he won't do it. Whenever a woman helps him climb the charts, he will add her on WeChat and start showing her concern for his well-being.

During the time the three women knew about it, several accounts had already spammed the live stream with comments like "heartless man" and "womanizing radish," but they hadn't taken it seriously before.

Could this girl be the biggest competitor to my sister-in-law?

The three girls stopped in their tracks. Li Dan pursed her lips and said, "Brother Zhongze, how about we skip the noodles?"

"Yeah, yeah, I suddenly don't want to eat noodles anymore."

Seeing Huang Qing's meaningful look, Wang Xiaoxiao spoke up, "I'll treat you somewhere else, not a noodle shop for now. What would you like to eat, Zhongze-gege?"

"That restaurant is delicious, why don't you guys go there to eat noodles?"

While Liu Zhongze was still wondering, a little girl ran up to him, and after confirming his appearance, shouted behind him, "Sister-in-law, it really is my brother!"

"Liu Yiyi? What are you doing here?"

Liu Zhongze's mind was about to explode. He was terrible at handling interpersonal relationships, and today he was surrounded by a tangled mess of complicated connections.

Everyone looked behind them and saw a sweet-looking girl with an innocent yet alluring aura walking straight toward Liu Zhongze.

The girl lowered her voice and asked, "So, you've been ignoring me these past few days because of this vixen?"

While the group was chatting, they were completely unaware that Lin Luoying was also heading towards the hotel where Liu Zhongze was, accompanied by Liu Yiyi.

Lin Luoying told the three female fans Liu Zhongze's location as a reward for their help in fighting back in the comments.

The five of them appeared in Haicheng at the same time and came to Jiujiang, but Liu Yiyi didn't like her eldest brother, so she made a fuss and didn't come immediately.

The three women had intended to surprise the two men, but they never expected Jiang Yue to suddenly utter such a remark just as they were about to arrive at their residence.

As the daughter of a high-ranking executive at Jiujiang Film and Television, how could Jiang Yue tolerate being called a vixen? She glanced sideways at Lin Luoying and asked, "Who are you calling a vixen?"

"That vixen is insulting you!"

Lin Luoying was unaware of Jiang Yue's trap, and the two women clashed like needles against wheat awns.

This put Xie Yukai in a dilemma. The two women were equally beautiful, though their temperaments differed slightly, each possessing their own unique charm, making them two completely different beauties.

"Don't be angry, sister-in-law." Liu Yiyi came over and tried to mediate. When she finished speaking to Lin Luoying, Lin Luoying had actually regained some of her composure. However, her next sentence made everyone present feel the atmosphere of a battleground, and even passersby avoided her.

Liu Yiyi turned to Jiang Yue and said, "New sister-in-law, I don't agree to my brother being with you. I will firmly stand by your side!"

Liu Yiyi proudly raised her head, trying her best to stand on tiptoe so that she could attract attention in the crowd.

In her mind, her brother was useless and capable of anything.

Every time there was a knock at the door at night, what the little girl feared most was not the creditors, but news of her brother, Liu Zhongze. She was afraid that even if she heard that her brother had committed a crime, the police would come to the door and take her away as well.

Perhaps at that time, I could take the blame for my older brother and sever ties with my parents, so that my brother's bad deeds wouldn't cause problems for my parents.

While the little girl thought she had done something amazing, Lin Luoying and Jiang Yue were practically spitting fire in their eyes, and the people around them felt their scalps tingle just watching.
