"Knock knock," there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The secretary walked in with a stack of documents in her hand and stood respectfully in front of the desk, "Mr. Lin."
The man sitting at his desk, who was correcting documents, heard the voice, put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and placed his hands on the table with his fingers folded. "What's the matter?" His voice was low and carried the majesty of a superior.
"This is the relevant data from monitoring online public opinion over the past few days," the secretary said, forcing herself to remain calm. She met his calm and intimidating gaze and continued, "Although the public opinion situation regarding the young lady and the young master was not good at the beginning, it is gradually improving now."
Lin Ye picked it up and flipped through a few pages, frowning, "Is someone manipulating this behind the scenes?"
"Yes," the secretary answered carefully, "We found out it's another step-sibling pair from the same group. Do we need to intervene?"
"Not for now." Lin Ye covered the information and tapped it with his fingertips. "Let her handle this matter herself. You keep an eye on the public opinion first."
The secretary nodded and lowered her brows. Mr. Lin and the eldest lady had exactly the same temper. They were indeed father and daughter.
After dinner, the director did not arrange any other mandatory tasks, and everyone could arrange their time freely.
This program does not confiscate anyone's electronic devices, except that they are not allowed to use their own money.
Yan Ru returned to the room. There was no camera installed in the room. She hurriedly took out her mobile phone from her bag and opened Weibo.
Because the program has popular traffic stars and young actresses, it has a large fan base, so even if it is broadcast live or recorded, it still attracts a huge amount of attention.
There were five program-related hot searches on Weibo. Yan Ru took a look and found that except for #《Brothers and Sisters, Go Forward》# which was obviously a promotional hot search bought by the program itself, and #Huai Shen Chi Ling Brothers and Sisters#, the other three were all about Lin Chaojin and Lu Ge.
#Lu Ge stinky hands#
#Lin Chaojin Lu Ge Kitchen Killer#
#Lin Chaojin#
Yan Ru bit her lower lip and read through the comments. Most of the comments were netizens making fun of Lin Chaojin and Lu Ge.
[Oh my god, is this the top star? I usually only remember him being handsome and cool, but is he looking so silly? This variety show doesn't have any other scripts, right?]
Some Lu Ge fans gathered to reply to this comment.
[Please don't blame fans for idols' behavior. I've actually considered unfollowing him, you idiot.]
[Thanks for the invitation. I just ate a pack of Lychee Plum to calm my nerves. I actually hope this is Director Zhang's script. I don't really want to recognize this idol anymore. Laughing and crying.]
Some bloggers also edited some clips of Lin Chaojin and Lu Ge interacting with each other.
[Hahaha, this is incredible. What kind of combination is this, a sister and a brother who are born out of wedlock?]
[I've found something in common between me and the rich: I also have a brother who deserves a beating, Doghead.]
Some people also refuted it.
[Ah, am I the only one who notices that Lin Chaojin is quite mean to her brother, and that Lu Ge doesn't really listen to his sister either.]
[I agree with the above comment, since they are stepsiblings after all. On the other hand, the other set of stepsiblings, Yan Ruo and Yan Sinuo, seem to have a very good relationship.]
[Uh, I think Yan Ruo's group lacks a bit of authenticity, it's very fake.]
[I think so too. Don’t you think Lin Chaojin and Lu Ge are just like how I usually get along with my stinky little brother?]
For a while, netizens started arguing.
Yan Ru's face turned ugly for a moment, and she exited. She saw the single #林朝顿# hot search and clicked on it.
Inside is a photo of Jiugong Green Chaojin that was screenshot by a blogger: Oh my god, what a divine beauty, I'm doing a 360-degree invincible spin, ahhh, today I'm a screaming chicken who is conquered by the beauty of the young lady.
This Weibo post received 50,000 likes and over 10,000 comments.
Inside are passers-by who are excitedly licking the blogger's face.
[Is this a new star from some company?]
[No, this is Lin Chaojin, the eldest daughter of the Lin Group.]
[Fuck, what kind of life is this? I’m pretty, I’m rich, my family is super wealthy, and I’m an Ivy League graduate, sob.]
[This woman is absolutely stunning, her beauty is killer. Please, sister, give me a chance to marry her. I'm an ordinary 985 university student, and my family has two apartments. I can marry into her family!]
[Sister above, is there no one on the internet you're calling anymore, you idiot? But I'll call you wife first.]
With a "bang", Yan Ru threw her phone on the bed, her face distorted and ugly, no longer as gentle as usual.
"Bang," the door was opened. "What's going on with these hot searches, Lu Ge, Lu Ge again," Yan Sinuo pushed the door open and walked in angrily.
"Keep your voice down." Yan Ru frowned when she saw the person coming, and a flash of disdain flashed across her eyes. "Close the door."
Yan Sinuo slammed the door shut, still feeling furious. Lu Ge's reputation had clearly been getting worse two days ago, but now seeing a bunch of idiots online actually finding him funny, he was practically pissed off.
"I don't care about you. You promised your mother to come and help me." Yan Sinuo said to her rudely, with a domineering look on his face, and he was no longer as obedient as usual to Yan Ru.
Yan Ruo's hands on the bed tightened for a moment, her eyes obscure, she sorted out her expression, raised her head again, and comforted him, "This is just the beginning, don't make things difficult for yourself, I will take care of it."
"That's better. Humph, you and your mother are only this useful." Yan Sinuo said this sarcastically and walked out.
Yan Ru looked at the closed door and sneered, "Idiot." If she didn't need to use him to appear on this variety show, she would not bother to pay attention to him. She picked up her phone again, logged out of her Weibo account, logged into another one, edited a message and sent it out.
Yan Ru glanced at the Weibo post and curled her lips.
The villa has three floors, and both Lin Chaojin's group and Chi Huai's group live on the third floor.
Lin Chaojin had just finished taking a shower and was wearing a suspender skirt, leaning against the window with a glass of water.
"Knock knock." There was a knock on the door. Lin Chaojin put the quilt on the coffee table, opened the door, and saw the person leaning against the door. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Mr. Chi?"
Chi Huai crossed his arms, looked at her suspender skirt with her bare hands exposed, glanced at the camera not far away in the corridor, frowned, pushed her in with a "bang", and closed the door.
Lin Chaojin was pressed against the wall without showing any sign of panic. Her lips curled up as she spoke lazily, "Mr. Chi, are you breaking into my room at night?"
"Mr. Chi?" Chi Huai withdrew his hand from her shoulder, pulled the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were obscure. "It seems that the young lady is really forgetful."
Lin Chaojin raised an eyebrow after hearing this, and suddenly moved closer to him, breathing close to him. She studied his face for a while, a smile on her face, "Well, Mr. Chi, you look a little familiar. Is there any service I didn't pay you for?"
"You," Chi Huai gritted his teeth in anger after hearing her words. This woman always had a way to make him angry, even though she looked calm and relaxed.
He raised his chin, lowered his head, fixed his gaze on her, and said in a low voice, "I don't mind you remembering it."
"Okay," Lin Chaojin heard his words, without any panic on her face. She didn't hide or avoid, but looked straight at him.
An undercurrent flowed between the two of them.
There was an impolite knock on the door, followed by a nonchalant voice, "Sister, open the door."
Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Chaojin calmly pushed the person in front of him away, opened the door with a click, and looked up. "What's going on?"
"Too boring, let's play a game together." Lu Ge started to speak, but when she saw the person standing behind her sister, she frowned and asked in confusion: "Hey, Chi Huai, why are you here?"
Lin Chaojin was about to speak when Chi Huai walked up to him calmly, his hands in his pockets. He glanced at him and said, "If you're not playing with friends, add me in."
Lu Ge's eyes lit up when he heard that. He was a professional player, so he immediately agreed, "Okay." He excitedly followed him, not remembering his previous question. He turned around and told his sister, "Sister, hurry up and grab your notebook. I'll take you flying tonight."
Lin Chaojin watched him follow the man foolishly, curled the corners of her mouth, went back to her room to pick up the notebook from her suitcase, and when she walked out, she saw the shawl draped over the sofa, her fingers paused on it, thinking of the man's gaze, she picked it up and put it on.
When Director Zhang heard that they were going to play games, he quickly asked people to set up a few more cameras in the living room on the third floor.
Lu Ge sat on the sofa, turned on his computer, raised his chin, and said proudly, "Hey, today I'm going to kill everyone."
Fans and netizens who heard the news entered the live broadcast room one after another. After hearing these words, the screen was filled with “…”
[Huai Shen, you are still sitting there. How can Master Ge kill so many people?]
Lin Chaojin turned on the computer and showed no expression when she heard his words. She didn't really want to pay attention to him.
Lu Ge glanced at Lin Chaojin and Chi Huai who were sitting on either side of him. "Just the three of us?"
Chi Huai held the phone in his slender hands and typed a few words, "I'll pull two people."
Over here, Xiaoyao from the FUI team was playing games live on the daily schedule, completing his weekly tasks. When he received the message, he looked up at the live stream and said, "You guys are in luck today. Brother Huai is pulling me into a 5v5."
After hearing what he said, the live broadcast room was flooded with comments.
[What, Huai Shen? Ahhh, I want to watch Huai Shen live stream his game. Is Huai Shen also live streaming?]
[Sisters upstairs, it seems that Huai Shen participated in a variety show, and there should be a live broadcast over there.]
[Really? I’m going to sneak off to Huaishen’s livestream~]
[Add me.]
A long string of people followed, "Add me in." Xiao Yao saw this and her eyes widened. She looked incredulous, as if she had been dumped by a scumbag. She was heartbroken and said, "No way, you are so heartless. You're abandoning me just like that."
The fans who stayed behind found it funny to see him like that and tried to comfort him.
[Haha, Yaoer, don't be angry, that's your boss, Huai Shen.]
[It’s okay, baby, mommy is here.]
Xiao Yao pretended to be coaxed and pouted, "Humph, I remembered those IDs just now, and you actually climbed the wall in front of me."
There was another round of hahahaha in the barrage.
In the live broadcast room here, the barrage of comments was also flying, and Chi Huai pulled two teammates from his team.
In an instant, more people poured into the live broadcast room. Director Zhang looked at the ever-increasing traffic in the background, and his face became rounder with smiles.
[Ahhh, just came from Xiaoyao's live studio, wow, a fresh Huaishen.]
[Sister Xiaoyao in front said to remember your ID.]
[Hahaha, scared.]
[Hey, does Missy play League of Legends too? I wonder how good she is.]
[Ahhh, I’m here to lick their hands. These three people’s hands are amazing.]
Seeing that everyone was ready, Lu Ge was eager to try. "Come on, I'll lead you guys tonight." His face was full of confidence.
[Scared, Ge Ye's confidence is back.]
[Ahem, just to make it clear, please don't blame fans for idols' behavior.]
[Front + 1]
[Hahaha, Lu Ge’s fans ran away overnight.]
