Lin Yunfei didn't really care about him.
But she didn't want to make any more enemies on the show.
She suppressed all her negative emotions and smiled gently at Li Ze: "No, my brother and I were just chatting casually. We talked about the tug-of-war that day, which made me quite embarrassed, since it was my first time having close contact with a boy. My brother misunderstood... I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it that way. Think about it, if I really said anything bad about you, would my brother still be willing to let me live with you?"
"..." Li Ze thought about it carefully for a while, but couldn't find any logical flaws in what he said.
But he still felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Seeing that he didn't reply, Lin Yunfei went to get her pajamas, intending to take a shower.
It seemed as if they really had no precautions against Li Ze.
However, since Li Ze was suspected of harassment by her, he naturally had to know how to avoid suspicion.
She's taking a shower here, he should go out.
That way, she won't go back and "chat" with her brother, trying to label herself.
Moreover, he had been thinking all night but had no inspiration for writing songs, so he might as well go out for a walk and get some fresh air.
So Li Ze left the room directly.
He wandered around the empty courtyard for a while.
I didn't find any inspiration for songwriting, but I ended up getting hungry from walking around.
So he went to the kitchen and made himself a bowl of clear soup noodles.
A few minutes later, the noodles were ready.
Li Ze absentmindedly scooped up the noodles.
When they were halfway through scooping the fish, they suddenly heard Xu Qiuyuan's voice behind them: "Can I have some?"
Li Ze turned to look at her, and she was staring straight at his face.
He also remembered that Xu Qiuyuan had low blood sugar and had to come down for a late-night snack every day.
But he was a little embarrassed: "I'm a terrible cook, I usually just make do with what I have, and you're a gourmet, I'm afraid you won't like it."
Xu Qiuyuan smiled and said, "When you're hungry, you won't be picky about anything."
"Okay then." Li Ze also served her a bowl.
The two of them sat down in the kitchen and started eating.
After taking a bite, Xu Qiuyuan felt that it wasn't very tasty, but at least it was cooked.
She stood up, took soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, chili powder, chopped green onions and other seasonings from the shelf, mixed them, and poured hot ramen broth over them, instantly spreading the aroma.
She poured the prepared soup into her own bowl and also poured half of it for Li Ze: "Try it."
Li Ze took a bite, and his eyes immediately lit up: "Wow, it's so delicious! It's a world of difference compared to before."
Xu Qiuyuan smiled, said nothing, and continued eating.
Li Ze finished his meal in a few bites and even drank the soup.
He thought Xu Qiuyuan would take a long time to eat, but when he looked up, he found that Xu Qiuyuan's bowl of noodles was almost empty.
He was surprised and a little confused: "Don't female celebrities pay a lot of attention to their figure? How can you eat so much? And your cooking is so delicious too."
Xu Qiuyuan looked up at him and said, "A few years ago, when I was being sidelined by the leek (a term used to describe someone who exploits others), I was busy researching how to cook. I would usually spend half a day cooking and the other half exercising. I ate a lot and exercised a lot, which was enough to maintain my figure."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued eating.
Li Ze waited quietly until she finished her bowl of noodles, then continued to press, "When I first debuted, I was also attacked online. I really couldn't take it and didn't have the mind to do anything else. How could you concentrate on cooking when you were being attacked online by everyone?"
The Xu Qiuyuan incident caused quite a stir back then.
The entire internet is condemning the mistress, and many people are even demanding that she commit suicide as an apology.
However, those extremely extreme people are very likely the online trolls hired by that honey trap couple.
Li Ze had also been following the story, and he felt that compared to what Xu Qiuyuan had gone through, his own experience was nothing.
More importantly, Xu Qiuyuan was completely slandered.
He was scolded back then... He admitted that half of the reason was because he had a bad temper and had actually fought with the paparazzi who were taking pictures of him.
Even so, when I experienced cyberbullying, I was so upset that I wanted to quit the entertainment industry.
So he was very curious about how Xu Qiuyuan could remain so calm.
Xu Qiuyuan put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and smiled faintly: "Actually, the most effective way to deal with cyberbullying is to disconnect from the internet. After returning to real life, those negative voices will gradually fade away. After all, everyone is unrestrained online, but most people are normal in reality. Even if there is a criminal walking on the street, no one will rush out to slap him or point at him and curse him."
Li Ze nodded silently: "I understand the reasoning, but can you really disconnect from the internet whenever you want? Don't you feel anxious and panicked, and the more negative news there is online, the more you want to go online to persuade them?"
Xu Qiuyuan remained silent for a moment, then sighed silently.
What Li Ze said was indeed her own mental journey at that time.
However, she was lucky; her internet was forcibly cut off.
Looking back now, she is still very grateful: "Back then, in order to prevent me from talking out of turn and to prevent me from being interviewed by reporters and having explosive revelations dug up, Leek Entertainment rented an apartment for me and locked me up under the pretext of writing interview articles. They delivered vegetables to me every day at set times."
"Not far from that apartment is a large square. At that time, they were setting up a large performance there. During the construction, they accidentally broke the signal base of the apartment building. It seemed to be very serious, which caused my apartment to be forcibly disconnected from the Internet."
Upon hearing this, Li Ze's eyes lit up.
However, he did not interrupt Xu Qiuyuan and continued to listen to her.
"I was very anxious when I couldn't get online at first. I couldn't help but think that there were more people cursing me online today... But I was forcibly disconnected from the internet and couldn't go out, so there was no use being anxious."
"I was anxious and bored, and I kept looking at everything in the house over and over again. I was so anxious that I even memorized the ingredient list on the back of the toilet cleaner."
"Finally, I got really bored and happened to find a cookbook on the bookshelf, so I started to teach myself to cook. Once I really got into it, I gradually broke away from the online world."
At this point, Xu Qiuyuan couldn't help but sigh, "Forced internet disconnection is really the fastest and most effective way to get away from cyberbullying. Although I don't know what kind of performance was involved in cutting off the signal base, I am really grateful to them. If it weren't for them, I definitely wouldn't have been able to get over it so easily."
Li Ze tentatively asked, "Is the plaza next to your apartment called Mingrui Plaza?"
Xu Qiuyuan nodded.
Li Ze couldn't help but smile: "If you find that production team, will you have to repay them?"
Xu Qiuyuan nodded: "We should indeed repay them."
Li Ze laughed out loud and pointed to himself: "Then you should repay me! I was about to hold a concert there when I accidentally dug up a signal base station."
