After hearing what Meng Lan said, Zhuang Li took out his mobile phone and checked Weibo.
Lin Caixiu pointed out, "Search for 'Zhuang Li's ex-boyfriend.'"
When Zhuang Li typed in this keyword, Han Kun's exposé post immediately came into view.
Everyone stared at him intently, trying to catch every subtle expression, eager to observe his next reaction. Would he shamelessly carry on, flee in shame, or burst into tears to gain sympathy?
However, no matter how Zhuang Li responded, this moment was destined to be the most embarrassing scene in the entire show.
Wan Anni hugged Xu Jingjing tightly, her legs shaking uncontrollably. Her toes had already dug out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment on the floor.
"Forget it, forget it, just stop looking at it. There are all kinds of people on Weibo, just ignore those boring words. It's your freedom to choose your own lifestyle." Wan Annie said something that was bound to offend many netizens.
But she has no regrets. She doesn't think it's funny at all to let Zhuang Li face online violence in front of so many cameras. How is this different from a public execution?
Xu Jingjing remained silent, her eyes blank, her mind wandering. The people and events in the room seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Except for the two of them, all the guests were looking forward to Zhuang Li's next performance.
However, Zhuang Li showed no shock or panic, nor did he feel ashamed, nor did he burst into tears or run away. He read his ex-boyfriend's blog post with a half-smile, and his tone was calm: "That's it?"
All the guests: "..." What else do you want? You didn't peel it clean enough, did you?
Cameraman: “…” Stop making a fool of yourself, you guys. I really can’t stand it anymore.
Zhuang Li locked his phone, shook his head, and chuckled, "How can you trust everything you see online? I use Weibo too, and to conceal my identity, everything I post is fake. If you take it seriously, you'll lose."
All guests: "..."
They were completely convinced! With his past exposed, why was Zhuang Li still so confident? Was it just because his name had the character "Li" in it? He knew all those Weibo posts flaunting his wealth were fake! How could he possibly continue filming the show? His second-generation-rich persona was already ruined, and everyone knew he was a fraud. Wasn't he afraid of being slammed by the entire nation?
Other people only have one layer of skin, but Zhuang Li may have ten thousand layers of skin!
The cameraman: "..." He was stunned! He finally understood why Zhuang Li posted those stolen photos online!
Everyone thought he was showing off his wealth, but he was actually pretending to be poor! Do you dare to believe this? Before today, the cameraman would never have believed it.
Those so-called luxuries in the pictures are nothing compared to the luxuries Zhuang Li actually enjoys! He buys a castle like a toy!
The cameraman wiped his face, feeling more and more that he was not filming a dating show, but a movie about an embarrassing situation. One day, these guests would find out how embarrassing they were.
Chang Jinbo clapped his hands gently and sighed sincerely: "Zhuang Li, you have a really strong psychological quality!"
He really admired this man. He could be so calm in public execution. If it were him, he would definitely not be able to do it.
"What does this have to do with mental strength?" Zhuang Li tossed the six of spades onto the table and stood up lazily. "I need to go back and catch up on some sleep. I've been working for three days and three nights straight."
"Ah, then go to bed! Don't work too hard; your health is most important," Wan Annie urged, relieved. She had a strong sense of empathy, so she felt even more embarrassed than Zhuang Li himself.
Zhuang Li walked up the spiral staircase carrying his computer bag.
Until this moment, Xu Jingjing, who was still in a trance, hesitated and said, "Ah! I finally understand why your words sound so strange! Although your idol is very far away from you, you still have the extravagant hope of being with your idol, right?
"If you simply wanted him to see you, you should have participated in 'Youth' and strived to debut as the center. Why are you participating in a dating variety show? Wouldn't it be weird for the idol to see you dating someone else? I think this decision is wrong."
Is this what the kid has been thinking about for so long? He's very logical, but his brain is a little slow. Zhuang Li pursed his lips and smiled, saying without turning his head, "No, this is the best decision I've ever made."
With this hoarse low laugh, his back disappeared at the stairs.
Xu Jingjing was confused again by this illogical statement, biting her fingers and starting to daydream.
Zhou Banxia, who ignored everything, glanced at her secretly, then smiled a little.
Lin Caixiu complained, "This guy is so mysteriously confident. I don't understand why he came to this show. He still refuses to leave after all this. I'm impressed. He might not live in the same dimension as us."
The cameraman who had captured Zhuang Li's elegant back hurried up to the second floor. He nearly slipped when he heard Lin Caixiu's words.
Is this a mysterious confidence? Zhuang Li is simply confident! With such strong abilities, why wouldn't he be confident? He exists in a different dimension than the rest of you. He's a god-like figure, didn't you know that?
At this moment, the cameraman actually developed a mysterious sense of superiority.
When Zhuang Li returned to his bedroom, he found that Chang Jinbo, who had originally shared the same dormitory with him, had moved out.
When he called, this man had clearly agreed with Han Kun to hook up with Zhuang Li and then ruthlessly abandon her. However, in the process of doing it, he simply could not stand being in the same room with someone he disliked.
Zhuang Li naturally didn't care whether Chang Jinbo stayed or left, and started taking off his coat and shirt as soon as he entered the room.
The cameraman who hurriedly followed captured an extremely beautiful naked back, then immediately said sorry and ran outside.
Realizing that Zhuang Li would go to bed after taking a shower and there would be nothing to shoot afterwards, the cameraman left the love cabin and went to the work shed to have breakfast.
When he walked into the monitoring room, the chief director was making phone calls everywhere: "Hello, Mr. Zhao, have you contacted the owner of Green Lake Castle? Wait a minute, I'll write down the number. Okay, okay, thank you for helping me connect, I'll treat you to dinner next time!"
The cameraman holding the instant noodle bucket stared at the director, because he knew that Zhuang Li was the owner of Green Lake Castle and this number would be called to Zhuang Li.
The director shook the note in his hand and sighed, "It's said that the owner of Green Lake Castle has a very prominent background and can walk sideways even under the imperial city. Look at this phone number, it's all 8s. You can't buy such a number with money."
Everyone gathered around to look at this magical phone number and exclaim in amazement.
The cameraman craned his neck to see it wasn't Zhuang Li's number, and he was a bit confused. Was Zhuang Li acting all along? Had he been tricked?
Just as he was beginning to doubt it, the director called and said respectfully, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Yao? We're from Strawberry TV's 'Love Shack' production team. We'd like to rent your Green Lake Castle as a filming location. Is that convenient for you?"
The cameraman pricked up his ears and eavesdropped.
The other end said, "Sorry, I'm not Mr. Yao, I'm Mr. Yao's assistant."
Oh my god! Even his assistant uses this kind of account. Is Mr. Yao himself going to be in trouble? Everyone looked over, their expressions of surprise.
The director was embarrassed for a moment, but still repeated his request.
The assistant denied it, saying, "The castle has already been sold. It's no use looking for us."
"What? Sold?" the director couldn't help but raise his voice. According to Mr. Zhao, this castle was Mr. Yao's most cherished possession, and he wouldn't sell it to anyone. China's richest man had approached several times to fulfill his daughter's birthday wish, but Mr. Yao had always turned them down.
Now he's selling it without warning, so the buyer must be even more influential than China's richest man? Who could possibly help connect someone like that?
The director had begged countless people to rent this castle. Just contacting Mr. Yao's assistant had used up all his connections. The more he thought about it, the more heartbroken he became, his eyes reddening.
The cameraman, who had just been a little suspicious of Zhuang Li, covered his mouth and chuckled. Seeing the director begging for help but getting nowhere, and thinking about how he usually cursed people, it felt really fucking good!
However, he could only feel happy secretly, as he didn't dare to reveal Zhuang Li's true identity.
The director sniffed and asked with a thick face, "Can you help me contact the buyer?"
"Sorry, I don't have the authority to help you contact the buyer." The assistant hung up the phone directly.
The director looked at his phone, which had suddenly gone black, and for a moment he really wanted to quit. He had had enough of the pain of asking for help!
The cameraman slurped his instant noodles, his heart filled with a sense of superiority that "everyone else is drunk but I am sober."
At this moment, a staff member raised his phone and said, "Boss, I know who the new buyer of Green Lake Castle is. Look at this Weibo."
The director quickly took his phone and looked at it. He saw that China's top-ranked lawyer had attached a picture of Green Lake Castle with the message: [Help Mr. Zhuang buy an item he likes.]
Of course, he dared to do this because he had Zhuang Li's instructions.
Director: "..." Damn! A castle worth billions is just an object in the eyes of these rich people? At this moment, he really felt a bit of hatred for the rich!
But the biggest problem is that the person who bought the castle turned out to be Mr. Zhuang! This is a top boss in the global financial market. Where can the director find someone to help him?
The director squatted on the ground, stroking his half-bald hair, and fell into a state of despair.
But thinking about how his career would be devastated if the show didn't take off, he slapped his thigh and stood up, cursing, "Fuck it, what are you afraid of? Even if it's the US President's castle, I'll try to contact him! I have to film the love scene I imagined!"
The cameraman put down his instant noodle bucket and applauded the director wholeheartedly. He finally understood why he was still a cameraman after all these years, while the director was now the director. No one could match his unyielding spirit.
The director tentatively sent a private message to the golden lawyer, explaining his purpose, and then began to contact his friends in the legal field to help connect them.
Unexpectedly, the lawyer quickly replied: "What a strange fate! Since you are the director of "Love Shack", I can give you Mr. Zhuang's number directly. It will be more convenient for you to contact him yourself."
The director blinked, spun his phone around for everyone to see, and asked in disbelief, "Was this really a private message from Lawyer Ou himself? Didn't someone hack his account? Why would he contact me? What strange connection do we have? How come I don't know about it?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
Cameraman: "..." Are you stupid? Take a good look at this phone number, doesn't it look familiar?
