Chapter 172 is a dating game.
On the internet.
After Bian Ji experienced the incident of being harassed by stalkers, enthusiastic fans and passersby launched a fierce protest against those who disregarded laws and regulations.
At the same time, it also offered warm comfort to Bian Ji.
Passersby were impressed by Bian Ji and his team's quick response in seeking police assistance to bring the unscrupulous paparazzi to justice.
Some say that Bian Ji's approach is the benchmark for dealing with obsessive fans in the entertainment industry, a textbook-level response model.
[It's always a pleasant surprise to see Bian Ji trending, and this time is no exception. Bian Ji is just so cool!]
[Stalker fans, be smart and stop harassing Bian Ji! Brother Ji is a tough guy, doesn't mince words, and will send you to jail, want some?]
Thankfully, nothing serious happened, otherwise these paparazzi would be in jail. A bunch of money-grubbing lunatics!
[My brother Ji has really become famous now, with so many stalker fans surrounding him. Brother Ji, you should hire more bodyguards; being a celebrity is a dangerous profession.]
[I hope the studio I support will learn from Bianji Studio's swift and decisive approach and better protect its artists.]
To be honest, Bian Ji's schedule is really well-kept secret. If it weren't for the sasaeng fans revealing his whereabouts, I wouldn't even know where he's been doing his recent gigs. Sigh, but I still hope he's safe and sound.
The matter circulated online for two days and then faded away.
Then, quietly, Bian Ji updated a set of photos on Weibo.
The caption reads: "[Benefits for reaching 10 million followers]".
【Bianji V】：［Image］×9
These photos were taken by Lu Yinzhao after he finished his exams.
Its simple yet sophisticated image is presented to the public, making a striking impression.
[Holy crap! This outfit is so cool! I declare Bian Ji the master of minimalism!]
[My brother either doesn't post anything at all, or he posts something big. This set of pictures is enough for me to admire for a month.]
[Is this a perk for reaching 10 million followers? Does that mean there will be more perks for followers if they keep reaching that milestone? What are you waiting for? Quickly follow my Weibo account!]
[Every single one of them is so handsome! I'm saving them all! I'll have them as my weekly wallpaper from now on!]
[Brother Ji, promise me you'll take more photos in the future, okay? You're so photogenic!]
No, everyone who's met Bian Ji in person thinks he's even more handsome; he's so handsome it's like he's on another level.
[Hey? Everyone, look! The photographer who took these photos of Bian Ji is Teacher L! He retweeted Bian Ji's Weibo post!]
[What?! Wow, I absolutely love this photographer! No wonder he made my brother look so handsome. If it were Teacher L, this would definitely be a perfect shot.]
After Bian Ji posted on Weibo, Lu Yinzhao didn't say anything, but directly reposted his Weibo post without adding a single word.
This only means that he took the photo.
This has made netizens who like both him and Bian Ji extremely happy.
[Oh my god! My wish came true! I wished in Teacher L's comments section that he would film "The Edge"! I thought it was impossible!]
[Is it really that effective? Then I'll make a wish! Teacher L, could you also take some photos and videos of my son Feng?]
[Let's take a set of photos for my Lily too! She's so cute!]
[My daughter Feifei also wants to collaborate with Teacher L; she really wants to see the beautiful photos Teacher L takes.]
[Among the artists L has worked with in the past, is he the only one who reposted Bian Ji's photos? Is it because L is satisfied with this photoshoot?]
[I've discovered a blind spot! I just checked Bian Ji's following list, and guess what I saw? The first person Bian Ji followed after joining Weibo was Teacher L!]
I feel that Bian Ji was probably planning to collaborate with Teacher L beforehand, which is why she started paying attention to him.
Do you think they might have met offline?
[That shouldn't be possible. It's normal for celebrities to follow photographers they admire. I don't see that Teacher L replied to Guan Bianji, so how did you all interpret it that way?]
[Is it because Teacher L has never reposted photos of him collaborating with other artists before? Could it be... that Teacher L is actually a fan of Bian Ji? Hahaha, I'm just guessing.]
【What? They're going in both directions?】
At this moment, Lu Yinzhao was lazily leaning back on Bian Ji's sofa, reading these Weibo comments.
I almost choked when I saw this comment.
Heading in both directions...
I think so.
This netizen inadvertently revealed the correct answer.
His relationship with Bian Ji won't remain a secret forever. If they start laying the groundwork now, people should be able to find clues later.
I didn't pay attention to Bian Ji originally to avoid suspicion, but now...
Lu Yinzhao clicked on Bian Ji's Weibo, pressed the "Follow" button, and the button immediately switched to "Mutual Follow".
Hehe, let them guess.
[Breaking news! Teacher L has followed Bian Ji back! It seems these two had a very pleasant collaboration this time!]
Does that mean Teacher L might take more photos of Bian Ji in the future? More handsome pictures, please!
[This set of photos is really well done. The lighting and background composition are excellent and can be used as a template for learning. I'm also a photography student, and L is truly talented. His photos have a warm quality, which I really like. I hope to reach his level someday.]
A blueberry was fed to Lu Yinzhao, who didn't even look at it before taking a bite.
Their lips and tongues touched each other's fingers, a soft, moist sensation.
Bian Ji carried the fruit platter to Lu Yinzhao's side, pulled him into her arms, and fed him fruit with her other hand, as if petting her beloved kitten.
"Are you still watching?"
"I just wanted to admire the photos I took. The netizens were right, you do look good in photos, and I did take pretty good ones." Lu Yinzhao proudly raised her head.
In front of Bian Ji, he was no longer modest, and even showed off a little.
"I'm always ready to take pictures whenever you want," Bian Ji said with a gentle smile.
"But that doesn't mean I can break the rules I set."
"What rules?"
"It means that the same artist cannot be filmed repeatedly within six months. If you want to film, you have to wait in line. If you want to contact me in the future, you still have to make an appointment. The artists I have worked with before have already started to wait in line."
"I see... Then I'll book you permanently, Mr. Lu. When will you be available again so we can collaborate?"
“Rules are rules, but people are flexible. Given our relationship, I can give you special treatment and put you a little ahead in the queue when you make your appointment.” Lu Yinzhao’s eyes were full of sly smiles.
"Oh? Really? You're already prepared to give me special treatment?" Bian Ji's eyes held a hint of danger.
"?"
This sounds a bit off.
A few seconds later, Lu Yinzhao, realizing what had happened, shoved the man away. "..."
This man's brain is starting to get filled with lewd stuff; he's actually saying dirty things.
"Get out of my way, I won't let you get away with this so easily!" Lu Yinzhao rolled her eyes at Bian Ji.
He stopped sitting on the side and moved his buttocks to the other side.
Bian Ji watched Lu Yinzhao's little actions with amusement. "Who's thinking the wrong thing? I didn't say anything."
Lu Yinzhao curled her lip, not believing Bian Ji's nonsense at all.
Lu Yinzhao would never admit that he had been cramming on educational films.
Although he said it on purpose, he actually hoped that one day he could completely exchange bodies and minds with Bian Ji.
It is said that after experiencing the Great Harmony of Life once, one's body will feel exceptionally different.
However, he was still a little scared and wanted to make thorough preparations before testing the waters.
He had seen Bian Ji's engine firsthand... it wasn't small.
What if the size doesn't fit later and the car won't start, or the car parts break down?
The thought of a screw not fitting properly sent shivers down Lu Yinzhao's spine.
At this moment, he felt that things were fine as they were, and they could kiss and hug each other when the emotions were high, and they could also help each other.
"What are you spacing out for? Still thinking about what just happened? I was just teasing you, don't mind it." Bian Ji leaned in again and hugged Lu Yinzhao, his lips brushing against Lu Yinzhao's earlobe.
Lu Yinzhao shook his head, "I don't mind, I..."
"Huh?" Bian Ji didn't hear clearly and moved even closer.
Lu Yinzhao said with a smile, "Brother, I won't keep you waiting too long."
The boy stared intently at the other person, and a fire instantly surged within Bian Ji.
He made a move to kiss her.
Bang--!
A loud thud made the two people who were embracing freeze instantly.
Lu Yinzhao caught sight of someone at the door, stumbled off the sofa, sprinted into Bian Ji's room at top speed, closed the door, and buried himself in the covers.
Bian Ji stood alone in the living room, glaring at the culprit who had made the noise.
Bian Nan stood blankly in the entryway, still in the same position she had when she first entered.
His usual black cell phone was on the floor.
He witnessed a scene that left him speechless, and his hand slipped and fell to the ground. He didn't even think to pick it up.
Bian Ji calmly walked over, picked up his phone, and put it into Bian Nan's hand.
“You’re not young anymore, your hands shake so you can’t hold things properly, I understand.” Bian Ji attacked the other person’s weakest point.
Normally, Bian Nan would have already exploded and cursed, "You little brat!"
But today he didn't say a word, and just stared at his younger brother in disbelief.
He rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things, and asked with difficulty, "Was that... Zhao Zhao who just ran into your room?"
"Um."
Since Bian Nan had seen it all, Bian Ji readily admitted it.
"So... were you playing some new game for young people just now?" Bian Nan asked again with difficulty.
"A new game?"
"Is it about hugging each other and counting each other's eyelashes?"
Bian Ji was speechless. He had always felt that although Bian Nan had some minor issues, at least his intelligence was normal.
Why are you acting like an idiot today?
Bian Ji sighed helplessly and said truthfully, "It's a dating game that you and Pei Jingyuan also play..."
Bang--!
Bian Nan's phone fell to the floor again.
He pulled Bian Ji over, his expression a mixture of shock and seriousness. "Are you serious?"
"Otherwise what? How could it be fake?"
Bian Nan asked with a stern face, "When did this happen?"
"It's been almost two months."
Bian Nan suddenly remembered the scene she saw when she visited Bian Ji's studio last time.
At the time, Lu Yinzhao was sleeping in Bian Ji's office. He thought his brother had found a mistress, but when he found out it was Zhaozhao, he dismissed his doubts.
Looking back now, it seems that it was already...
Bian Nan had a headache.
Why Zhao Zhao of all people?
His younger brother stole the Lu family's most prized possession. Would the Lu family agree to that?
-----------------------
Author's Note: Bian Nan: How did my little brother manage to steal that beautiful, fresh-faced cabbage? [Cracks open] (Die)
Ah Ji: Dude, when I'm playing dating sims, can't you have a little sense of boundaries? [Shrugs]
Zhao Zhao: I'm so ashamed! [Clown]
