Chapter 180 Explosion! Huo Yanmo Pursues Shi Nian
seaside.
The blue rain had stopped, and Shi Nian looked outside.
Huo Yanmo just asked her if she would mind if their affair were exposed.
"No," she smiled. "It's only a matter of time."
She looked at the sea over there. She had just had a little drink and suddenly felt like going to the water's edge to wade in it.
As she said that, she went to do it.
She took off her high heels, carried them in her hand, and walked to the water's edge to play with them.
Huo Yanmo followed behind her, smiling as he watched her.
Shi Nian had a wicked thought, so she threw her high heels aside, scooped up a handful of water, and turned around to splash it on Huo Yanmo.
He was caught off guard and got splashed.
But he only paused for a moment, then smiled helplessly.
He crouched down, scooped up some water, and splashed it on her.
"Haha, you won't get splashed." Shi Nian was prepared and had already jumped away.
I jogged along, splashing water under my feet, dodging the water he stirred up while scooping it up and splashing it back at him.
The two were playfully bickering, and Huo Yanmo's hair was covered in water droplets. His previously meticulous hair was now wet and drooping, with some of it still dripping water.
Shi Nian's lips curled up in a smile, then suddenly...
In a daze, Shi Nian looked at this face, and her memories seemed to be stirred.
It seemed that she had seen him like this somewhere before.
But he wasn't smiling then.
"What's wrong?" Huo Yanmo noticed her strange expression and came over, even finding her high heels and carrying them over as well.
Shi Nian smiled and shook her head, trying to shake off those images; all she wanted to do now was be happy.
She had forgotten how long it had been since she had played like a child.
It seems that she has to shoulder a lot of responsibilities at all times.
She has never truly relaxed since her father died.
She has so many things to consider.
This left her barely able to breathe.
She stopped wading and walked to the other side, where she had just seen a piano.
After wiping her hands clean, she spontaneously played a piano piece.
The sea breeze, her hair flowing freely, the cool and relaxed seaside, the empty piano, and a person who made her feel at ease.
She liked this feeling of freedom and ease.
Just like when I was a child.
When she finished playing the piece, applause of admiration erupted around her.
She opened her eyes, looked at him, and smiled and nodded.
He was watching her too, the night breeze ruffling her long hair.
He liked her free-spirited and flamboyant personality.
He loves her anytime.
...
Meanwhile, Huo Zhiyao was training his cat at home.
“Mimi, you’re a real hero in the family now,” Huo Zhiyao said to the fat doll. “You can’t just do backflips all you want; you need to do more and seduce that little Sisi over here.”
"Meow~"
The fat doll turned around, its backside facing Huo Zhiyao.
Huo Zhiyao's lips twitched slightly, and he forcefully straightened the fat doll.
"This is what my brother said, he wants you to learn more, you have to listen to him," Huo Zhiyao instructed. "Besides, you like them very much, right?"
The kitten glanced at Huo Zhiyao and finally meowed in agreement.
"That's more like it," Huo Zhiyao said with a smile, then took out his phone to show it. "Come on, let's do this, open! Open! Let's turn the tide!"
Last time he tried to get the fat doll to imitate him, it refused.
This time they seem quite willing.
It's already baring its teeth.
Just then, his phone rang.
Huo Zhiyao glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.
Remembering what his older brother had told him earlier that day, he coughed twice to clear his throat and then answered the call.
"Hello? Who is it?" Huo Zhiyao asked.
"Hello, Second Young Master, we are reporters. We just got some scoops. Would you be interested in buying them?" the other party asked bluntly.
Huo Zhiyao understood, recalling his brother's words, and continued to ask, "What exactly is it?"
"It's a video of the young master and Shi Nian on a date," the other party replied.
Huo Zhiyao smiled and said, "My brother said he's not buying it, so you can do whatever you want with it."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
After hanging up, he showed the video of the dramatic turn of events to Fat Puppet, while he picked up another phone and started browsing trending topics to watch the excitement.
"Hehe." Huo Zhiyao chuckled at the thought of what was about to happen. "I hope Lu Yanzhi won't be so angry he'll die, haha."
...
The two paparazzi looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Brother, what should we do?" one of them asked.
"Huo Er said it was his brother who said it, which means Huo Yanmo expected it all along." Another person replied, "Then let's just post it online, that way we'll still have some traffic!"
"good!"
“I’ll do it. You need to be skilled. Learn from me,” the man continued.
...
At this moment, another video suddenly appeared on the internet, which was already a hot topic of discussion.
In the video, a man and a woman are playing on the beach. The woman is wading through the seawater and splashing it on the man, but he doesn't seem annoyed at all. He just holds her high heels in his hand and symbolically splashes some water on her.
Anyone could see that he didn't really want to splash her; he was just teasing her.
Similarly, the video angle is extremely tricky, showing women trying to avoid the water so their faces are not visible.
This really worried the onlookers.
"These paparazzi are doing this on purpose! They're just showing me this much!"
"I'm so anxious! Quickly bring out the stock with frontal shots!"
...
At that moment, the leader smiled slyly and typed a line on his account: "[100,000 likes unlock the next video.]"
The most upvoted comment from netizens was: "Holy crap, this is a real dog!"
However, despite being a dog, netizens quickly gave him likes, and the number of likes soon exceeded 100,000.
It's not just 100,000, it's heading straight for a million.
The hype is skyrocketing.
"Brother, it has to be you!" exclaimed the paparazzi beside him.
The boss gave a wicked smile and uploaded the video.
So, the video of her playing the piano appeared, but she still didn't show her face.
Then, he posted another long update—[Once I reach 500,000 followers, I'll release videos showing all the female leads' faces.]
Netizens groaned in despair, calling it a truly outrageous and bizarre move!
The most upvoted comment was: "Stop pointing fingers! Stop pointing fingers!"
Below is a whole bunch of pointing emojis.
If there was already some buzz from the beginning, now the buzz has snowballed, attracting the attention of countless people and turning into a nationwide frenzy of guessing who the female lead is.
"I guess she's the Zhou family's daughter."
"I bet it's from the Xu family!"
"They might be foreign nobles!"
"Are you stupid? This body type and outfit are obviously from China!"
...
Countless people followed this account, quickly surpassing a million followers, all hoping to get a video showing their faces.
"Brother, want to come again?" The paparazzi next to him watched as his big brother took a huge amount of money for traffic while also accepting an advertisement that required him to be inserted in the middle of a video showing his face, and he rubbed his hands like a fly.
He rolled his eyes: "If you do it again, you'll get beaten up."
Then, a series of videos were released.
All the photos displayed showed the front of the subject.
This time, the whole nation was in an uproar.
"What?! This person is actually Shi Nian!"
"The mysterious woman Huo Yanmo is chasing so relentlessly is actually Shi Nian!"
"I can't believe my eyes, can I? My God, what about Lu Yanzhi's side...?"
#Huo Yanmo is pursuing Shi Nian#
This trending topic remained firmly at the top of the list.
It attracted the attention of countless people.
In the apartment, Lu Yanzhi looked at the series of videos featuring his face and the trending topics, then suddenly glanced at the table next to him.
"Clang, clang..."
Countless objects crashed to the ground with a loud bang.
His hand was cut by shards of metal, and blood dripped down his fingers.
But he seemed oblivious, staring intently at the video feed.
