Chapter 644
After dinner, Yan Yuansen went out for a stroll alone. He drove around several places and spent a lot of time before finally catching the rat demon that appeared in the crew.
It was not easy to find him, thanks to the fact that he left his demonic aura with the crew, the smell of which was stronger than that of other demon cultivators.
Yan Yuansen lifted the fat rat by the scruff of its neck and shook it a few times, saying, "It looks like this rat has had a good life, otherwise it wouldn't be so fat. Now disinfect it and put it in the pot. Bamboo rat meat tastes good, so this kind of rat meat should taste good too."
The rat demon was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He quickly raised his two front paws to bow to Yan Yuansen and said in a human voice: "Master, please spare my life. My rat meat is not tasty. Master, I will catch you whatever you want to eat."
"Oh, you're not pretending anymore?" Yan Yuansen glanced at him. When he first caught him, the rat demon was still pretending to be an ordinary rat. "I was planning to throw you into a hot oil pan to see what it feels like in the boiling oil pan of hell."
The rat demon was about to cry: "Master, please spare my life. I will never dare to do that again. Woohoo."
He actually started crying. Yan Yuansen threw him away in disgust. The rat demon immediately changed into a human form and lay on the ground, not daring to offend the master anymore.
"Get up." Yan Yuansen kicked him lightly.
The rat demon got up from the ground swiftly. He was quite short, with shifty eyes, and didn't look like a good person. Yan Yuansen asked, "What's your name, and why haven't you gone to the special department to register your identity?"
The rat demon shrank back. Why did he need to register his identity? He didn't want to be controlled. It was so good to be free like this.
"My last name is Shi, and my name is Shi Shu."
But Yan Yuansen couldn't hear his inner voice, and even if he heard it, he pretended not to hear it. He took him to the special department to register first. He and Yuan Jing had been coming here frequently recently, so the gatekeepers greeted him warmly. Seeing the short man behind him, they asked curiously, "Could this be another demon cultivator? What kind of demon is it?"
Yan Yuansen smiled and said, "It's a rat demon. I found it running around in the imperial capital. I have to catch it and register it."
The guard's eyes widened even more. Since the implementation of this rule, he has seen many kinds of demon cultivators, but this is the first time he has seen a rat demon: "Go in quickly."
After completing the registration, he was given a booklet that he had to memorize. If he violated any of the rules, he would face punishment. The stone rat was in tears. Did this mean that he could no longer cheat and deceive people?
Of course, mice are the best at digging holes. Who knows better than mice where the most hidden valuables are? But now they have to return the unclaimed property they find to the public. So how can they make money in the future?
A manager could see that the stone rat was very afraid of Yan Yuansen. With Yan Yuansen around, he was not afraid that the rat demon would break the law. He asked Yan Yuansen behind his back, "What does Mr. Yan plan to ask him to do?"
Yan Yuansen smiled and said, "My detective agency is in need of someone to work with. I think this stone rat is just the right person for the job."
The manager immediately looked at Yan Yuansen with admiration. This place was perfect for the rat demon. It would allow him to follow anyone without being discovered.
After leaving the special department, Yan Yuansen took Shi Shu to the car and explained his plan for Shi Shu. Shi Shu was just feeling depressed, but at this moment his eyes lit up: "Really? I can do this?"
Yan Yuansen started the car and drove out, saying, "Aren't you the best at following people? You can also use other mice to help you get information."
The stone rat nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, all rats obey my orders."
"That's all. Do something for me first and let me see what you are capable of."
"Okay, leave it to me, Stone Rat."
Yan Yuansen handed over the people and matters to be investigated to Shi Shu, and released him halfway. He also gave him the address of the detective agency and told him to report in after he had done the job. Shi Shu stood on the side of the road and had a strange feeling in his heart. He actually worked for someone, and for a high-ranking person at that. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about being eaten by the high-ranking person.
Seeing that the master has a high status in the special department, his status is actually improving by working with the master, right? Will he be able to stand up straighter when facing Cen Yu in the future? Humph, forget it this time. Next time the snake demon wants to ask him to do something, he will definitely not do it without paying.
Cen Yu didn't know that the stone rat had found a backer. Of course, the stone rat didn't go looking for it on his own, but the backer came to him on his own initiative.
Yuan Jing knew at the first moment that the rat demon had been recruited by Yan Yuansen, but he also felt that Yan Yuansen's detective agency was better off using these demon cultivators than humans. Yan Yuansen could do all the work that humans could do, and the errands could be done by the demon cultivators.
Shi Shu worked diligently for Yan Yuansen's detective agency and reported to Yan Yuansen whatever he found out. Even the matters concerning Cen Yu were reported to Yan Yuansen. Yan Yuansen raised his eyebrows when he saw this and turned around to tell Yuan Jing.
Yuan Jing used the Horcrux to communicate with Yan Yuansen in surprise: "Are you saying that Fan Yu is maliciously hyping up the scandal between Cen Yu and Zhong Lichu?"
Yan Yuansen replied on the other end: "Yes, but Cen Yu is not that stupid. He is just waiting for Fan Yu to take action, and then throwing out all the evidence and skinning Fan Yu."
Yuan Jing said with a sigh, "No wonder I saw someone secretly taking photos in the crew these past two days. The photos were of Cen Yu and Zhong Lichu."
Yuan Jing looked at the autographed photo in his hand. It was the one he asked Zhong Lichu for on behalf of his parents. Fan Yu seemed to be respectful and gentlemanly to Zhong Lichu, but he was ruthless when he stabbed her in the back. It would be misfortune for any woman to find such a man.
Cen Yu already had all the evidence, including the recording of Fan Yu talking to his agent about how to teach him a lesson, but he felt sorry for Zhong Lichu. He had a pretty good impression of this female human. When everyone was ostracizing him to show favor to Fan Yu, Zhong Lichu was the only one who didn't mind.
So Cen Yu thought about it and gave Zhong Lichu a reminder so that she wouldn't be caught off guard: "In the next two days, someone will come to hype up the relationship between me and Sister Zhong. This time I have implicated Sister Zhong. I will apologize to Sister Zhong after the matter has settled down."
Zhong Lichu looked at Cen Yu in surprise, pointed at him and then at herself: "Hype you and me?"
Cen Yu nodded affirmatively.
Zhong Lichu still couldn't believe it: "You are kidding, Xiao Cen, I am more than ten years older than you. In the old days, I could be your mother."
Cen Yu didn't care about the age issue: "What's the big deal? I've always been criticized for relying on sponsors to climb up. I know those people are just jealous that I look better than them."
Zhong Lichu chuckled. She didn't expect her brother to be so broad-minded. But looking at his face, it really made both men and women jealous.
"Is the news true? Is there anything I need you to do?"
Cen Yu waved his hand: "No, I'm ready. This time I'm going to skin him alive."
Zhong Lichu also had a suspect in her mind and couldn't help but sigh. If this was true, then her vision was indeed lacking and she failed to see through that person's true nature. Fortunately, they didn't have a very close relationship, so she wouldn't be too disappointed.
Sure enough, a marketing account broke the news that night, and by the next day, rumors about the actress Cen Yu and Zhong Lichu were everywhere. At first, many people couldn't believe it, because those who knew the two knew that they belonged to two different generations, so how could they be mixed together? Even when standing together, they looked like siblings. Don't talk about sister-brother love, the two didn't have that CP feeling.
But the whistleblower released a series of photos, in which the two were smiling at each other, two were sitting side by side, and two were very close to each other. No matter how you looked at them, it looked like they were kissing. What shocked fans the most was that there was a photo with a background of late night, and the two looked like they were going to get a room, which seemed very ambiguous. Cen Yu's fans were the first to lose patience.
Their brother is only 25 years old, but how old is the woman in the photo? She is over 40 years old. How can such an old woman be worthy of their brother? The fans were so angry that they shouted for the old woman to stay away from their brother.
Although Zhong Lichu's fans are much more rational, they were also furious when they heard their idol being called an old woman. Not to mention that a 40-year-old woman is not old, and who doesn't get old one day? These fans are too uncultured and too humiliating.
The black fans of both families were fanning the flames from behind, while passers-by were just watching the fun, ignoring the age difference. In fact, both of them are handsome men and beautiful women, and it is quite pleasing to the eyes standing together. Although, it is more like a tolerant sister taking care of the arrogant brother.
By the evening of that day, all major forums and Weibo were flooded with fans of both teams. The incident was getting more and more noisy, with some fans even going to the crew to make a scene, saying that it was either him or me between Cen Yu and Zhong Lichu, and they would never appear in the same frame together.
There was no way the crew wouldn't know about such a big commotion on the Internet, so everyone had to secretly watch Cen Yu and Zhong Lichu during the day, but the two of them seemed to ignore the online revelations and continued to communicate normally.
In fact, it was Cen Yu who was apologizing to Zhong Lichu for the fierce and offensive words said by his fans. In his opinion, Zhong Lichu was a very charming woman, which made Zhong Lichu feel better. In fact, seeing those words, how could a woman of some age remain indifferent? She looked in the mirror and found that her skin was not as tight as that of young people, and there were crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.
Cen Yu specifically asked Hua Yicai for some skin care products, which were made by Sister Hua herself, and the materials used are definitely not found anywhere else. Sister Hua has always been the most concerned about beauty, so even the skin care products he usually uses are from Sister Hua.
He gave the skin care products to Zhong Lichu: "Sister Zhong, this is what I asked Sister Hua for. Hua Yicai, that woman has always loved beauty, and she uses skin care products made by herself, and the effect is definitely good."
"Hua Yicai? You and her..." Zhong Lichu asked curiously. If she remembered correctly, the two of them had been rumored to be in a relationship, and there were often photos of them together that were circulated.
Cen Yu smiled and said, "I asked that woman to call me brother, but if I lose the bet, I can only call her sister. That's the relationship between us."
He spoke with disdain, but Zhong Lichu could see that they had a really good relationship, perhaps as close as siblings.
Thinking about Hua Yicai's beautiful face, Zhong Lichu accepted the gift and gave it a try, saying, "The person behind the scenes knows how to manipulate fans. He has caught the most unacceptable part of you and my fans. When are you going to fight back?"
"It's tonight, when there are the most people. It's not easy to drag this matter out. I don't want to be hated by Sister Zhong's fans."
Zhong Lichu smiled: "Okay, then I will cooperate with you."
