Chapter 56

Xiaomi, the assistant, nodded quickly: "I know, sis. I was just listening and didn't say anything out of turn. I was just telling you secretly."

Li Xueer nodded. Once Minglan finished filming, she could rest for a few days and then have time to visit Lingju to see Jiang Mo.

Because of his cultivation and her work, Jiang Mo and she haven't had a chance to meet during this time.

Moreover, Jiang Mo had recently taken a pill to dispel cold toxins and was kept under the supervision of Master Yunqing to help him digest the effects of the medicine.

Amidst the commotion, a group of people entered the photography studio. Li Xue'er looked up and saw Luo Hengzhi and Ye Zi walking at the front.

Li Xue'er was surprised to see the two of them here and happily stood up: "Ye Xian... Senior Ye Zi, what brings you here?"

"I was just passing by and knew you were filming here, so I came to see you on behalf of Jiang Mo," Ye Zi said.

Li Xueer: "After this is over, could I treat you to lunch?"

“I’ll arrange the meal,” Luo Hengzhi said.

Ye Zi nodded. Their original plan was to visit Li Xue'er and then go to the nearby Lianxiang Stone City.

However, Huo Zhongkui had contacted the people on the list by phone yesterday in advance, and Wen Tianyang and others from Lianxiang Shicheng had already gone to Lingju Temple to seek refuge.

Therefore, Ye Zi and Luo Heng changed their next stop to Han Hai City, leaving Pang Hewen of Han Hai City as the only one they could not contact.

"Xiaomi, these are my friends. Please take care of them for me during the filming." Li Xueer turned to her assistant and instructed her as the filming was about to begin.

"Sis, is your friend the boss of Minglan?" Xiaomi shook Li Xueer's arm and whispered a reminder, "President Lu is standing in the back."

Li Xue'er then looked behind Luo Hengzhi and Ye Zi, first seeing Luo Yi, and then Lu Fei: "Senior Brother, President Lu, what brings you here too?"

After Li Xue'er finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and then realized that Luo Hengzhi... could he be the boss behind Minglan?

Li Xueer looked at Luo Hengzhi with some surprise, and then belatedly said, "No wonder Senior Brother Luo's move was so 'dazzling'. Thank you, President Luo, for giving me this opportunity to be your spokesperson."

“No need to be so polite, we’re all family. Besides, your image suits this theme.” Luo Hengzhi recalled Lu Fei’s words about her nephew’s wife, Jiang Mo, being Ye Zi’s apprentice, so they were practically family.

"Sister, we're family!" Xiaomi happily tugged at Li Xueer. Her sister not only had the Li family backing her, but now also owned Minglan Jewelry. Her sister was a very powerful person with strong connections.

When it was time to shoot, Li Xueer went over to take pictures. Ye Zi looked over with curiosity. She had seen photos of celebrities online and realized that they were taken with these kinds of machines.

Luo Hengzhi suddenly leaned closer to Ye Zi: "I want to take a picture too."

"Huh? What?" Ye Zi turned around and looked at Luo Hengzhi.

Luo Hengzhi: "We haven't taken wedding photos yet, and we haven't even had a wedding ceremony. We can't go without wedding photos too."

This was the second time Luo Hengzhi had brought up marriage. Ye Zi asked, "Do you really want to have a wedding?"

"It's alright." Luo Hengzhi wasn't too insistent, but he felt that it was his wedding with Ye Zi.

But Ye Zi is different from him; it's not wrong for cultivators to care more about the Daoist partner contract.

Ye Zi immediately recalled some wedding photos she had seen online. For some reason, it seemed like everyone who got married took wedding photos.

“Okay, let’s take pictures.” Since Luo Hengzhi wanted to take pictures, then let’s take pictures. Besides, there didn’t seem to be anything else for them to do while they were waiting here.

"Luo Yi." Luo Hengzhi beckoned to Luo Yi, who immediately understood, "Boss, the shed next door is available anytime."

"Come on, let's go over there." Luo Hengzhi led Ye Zi towards another photography studio.

Upon receiving Lu Fei's instructions, the staff immediately turned on the studio lights and contacted the photographer.

"Boss, boss lady, is it alright to do our makeup and change clothes now?" A makeup artist and a costume designer walked over with smiles. They could finally get up close to their boss and boss lady.

"No need." Luo Hengzhi raised his hand and waved it over Ye Zi's body, and Ye Zi's plain clothes were changed into the red dress she wore yesterday.

Luo Hengzhi then used a changing technique to change herself into a black formal suit to match Ye Zi.

The makeup artist and costume designer next to them were dumbfounded. This is acceptable?!

Everyone at the scene was stunned; the only sound was the noise of the machines!

"This is so convenient and saves so much time."

"I want to learn these skills. Are there any makeup tips or anything? That way, my wife won't have to spend so much time putting on makeup before going out." Lu Fei silently practiced the gestures and movements Luo Hengzhi had just made.

Luo Yi: "My master looks so good in red."

"Yes, why is my master only wearing red now? She looks so beautiful!" The fire phoenix couldn't stay calm and fluttered her little wings.

Longbao retorted, "My master is handsome too! Of course, both masters are good-looking!"

"Indeed, my boss and my master... are the perfect match!" Luo Yi couldn't help but exclaim repeatedly.

Lu Fei took out his phone and snapped a picture of Ye Zi and Luo Hengzhi: "The boss is handsome, and the sister-in-law is beautiful. They are a match made in heaven!"

When the staff members saw Lu Fei taking pictures, they also took out their phones and started taking pictures of Ye Zi and Luo Hengzhi.

"Find out who did this morning's incident?" Luo asked.

Lu Fei: "He's an old rival. This time we have evidence, including a recording. We'll send him in directly."

Luo Yi: "Yeah, you should be more careful. Once the boss's identity is exposed this time, you'll be safer from now on."

“I’m safe now, they all need to keep an eye on the boss,” Lu Fei said.

"Keep an eye on them, but we need to be able to find them, right? The boss isn't the same boss he used to be," Luo Yi said.

Lu Fei smiled and said, "That's true."

Just as the two finished speaking, they saw Luo Hengzhi wave her hand, and Ye Zi and Luo Hengzhi changed into another outfit.

Luo Yi suddenly had an idea: "If our future filming could be like that of the boss and the master, wouldn't we be able to save a lot of time?"

"But...how do we do it?"

"When I get back, I can have my junior uncle research some talismans and bring them over to use."

“That works. If you put it that way, this line of thinking can be extended to many other applications.” Lu Fei brainstormed.

Luo Yi: "Okay, I'll talk to my junior uncles about this idea when I get back to Lingju Temple. Also, the Pill Pavilion is about to open, and I need to go back and help out since the boss has left."

"Hearing you talk about Lingju Temple, I'd like to go and see it too." Lu Fei, having spent too much time in the shopping mall, also wanted to go deep into the mountains to cultivate his mind and body.

Luo Yi poured cold water on the idea: "Just think about it. You signed a 20-year contract with the boss for Minglan. You should just stay put and be a good slave. Freedom... is still a long way off."

Finally, Ye Zi and Luo Hengzhi had dinner with Li Xueer, and then they all went their separate ways.

The city of Hanhai was quite far away, but the two still flew there on their swords, hoping to encounter some other opportunities along the way.

The following day, Minglan Jewelry released a set of photos on its official website, which attracted widespread attention online.

"Isn't this Luo Hengzhi and Fairy Sister? Why are they acting as spokespeople for Minglan?"

"What spokesperson? Neither of them was wearing any jewelry or accessories."

"What does Minglan mean by this?"

Then a pinned comment appeared: "Sorry, I forgot to include the caption. Let me introduce you to my boss and his wife!"

"What! Luo Hengzhi is actually the boss behind Minglan? Wasn't it said that after Luo Hengzhi was kicked out of the Luo family, he was living a miserable life and had to live off Lingju Temple?"

"You believe whatever you hear online. Don't you remember how Luo Hengzhi earned his reputation as a 'business prodigy'? He was only 15 when he was at the height of his fame. How could he have fallen apart after leaving the Luo family?"

"A bunch of Monday morning quarterbacks. Now you're saying this, but when the whole internet was criticizing Luo Hengzhi as a good-for-nothing, where were you all, defending him and calling him a 'business prodigy'?"

"Speaking of the Luo family, without Luo Hengzhi, their stock price has plummeted, and they're showing signs of decline. I heard they can't even pay salaries anymore."

"Of course, the Luo family's rise in status is all thanks to Luo Hengzhi. Once Luo Hengzhi was crippled, the Luo Group immediately kicked him out. I don't know who gave them the courage to even make Luo Kun think that he built the Luo family from scratch. It's utterly ridiculous!"

"Are you all only interested in the Luo family gossip? Fairy Sister looks so beautiful in her red dress, and none of you are paying attention?"

"Of course I'll look! Fairy Sister is always beautiful, that goes without saying."

"I never expected that the aloof and elegant fairy sister would look so stunning in red. I'm so envious of Luo Hengzhi for having such a beautiful wife."

"I'm actually envious of Luo Hengzhi's wife. Luo Hengzhi's face, height, and figure... I have to say, this fairy sister really eats well!"

"Where can I find something this good? I want to eat it too! I'm asking online for advice, it's urgent!"

Sleep well, child, for anything is possible in dreams.

"Luo Hengzhi was really won over by the fairy sister's group purchase. It turns out the fairy sister is quite down-to-earth, even going online to group purchase."

......

Just ten minutes later, Minglan Jewelry's official website released another set of high-definition photos with the caption: "New product: Qingyu series - Dream Making" and tagged Li Xueer.

"Li Xueer is getting more and more beautiful, and she matches this 'Dream-Making' jewelry series perfectly. Minglan knows how to choose its spokespeople."

"Li Xueer is so beautiful! Her face looks so much more refined. Did she get plastic surgery?"

"Your facial features haven't changed, but your skin has become fairer, making you look more refined overall. However, it's likely you've had some minor cosmetic procedures."

"So beautiful, it's like a dream, it perfectly fits the 'dream-making' theme."

"Li Xueer has boarded the big ship of Minglan Jewelry; she's about to become a star."

"No, isn't Li Xue'er a member of the Li family? Luo Hengzhi should hate the Li family to the core, yet he still chose Li Xue'er as his spokesperson."

"A picture has surfaced showing that Li Xueer, Fairy Sister, and Luo Hengzhi seem to be very familiar with each other, suggesting they've known each other for a long time. It's said that Luo Hengzhi and Fairy Sister came specifically to see Li Xueer, and the group chatted happily and appeared quite close."

"So Li Xue'er knew the Fairy Sister before? Could her transformation into a beautiful woman not be due to plastic surgery, but related to the Fairy Sister? Perhaps she took some kind of elixir?"

"Returning the elixir? It's clearly been altered! What elixir in this world could be so miraculously transformed?"

"No wonder Minglan's official website suddenly revealed the owner and his wife. It turns out they were using the popularity of their own Longbao Luohengzhi to attract traffic. And now the new product ad is following suit."

"Absolutely. When it comes to advertising and marketing, we still have to look to President Lu. By the way, President Lu was so handsome during his live stream last night; netizens even called him a handsome uncle."

"Haha, I was there at the time, and because he was called 'handsome uncle,' Mr. Lu was teased and mocked by the handsome young man next to him."

"What live stream? Did Lu Zong stream live? Where can I watch it? Please provide the link."

"It was a live stream from two pets. Oh, and those two pets even revealed that their owner was Luo Hengzhi. By the way, surprisingly no one was curious why CEO Lu would be in Luo Hengzhi's pets' live stream."

"What are you talking about? A pet livestream, and the pet even revealed that its owner is Luo Hengzhi? How can it reveal that? Can pets talk?"

"Yes, it can not only talk, but it can also turn from a bird into a human."
