Director Xu's face showed a helpless expression: "He asked me to change his partner to Lu Rongyu and let Lin Yimeng partner with Lu Yixuan. This request is quite tricky. After all, our program's practice is for guests to bring their own relatives. Even if a new guest is added, we have carefully confirmed that there is a deep friendship between them before inviting them. Who knows why he suddenly wants to change the guest."
He sighed, "Besides, Lu Yixuan is in jail now, and Lu Rongyu will soon be going to be with her brother. Do you think I'd dare let her stay on the show? I'm not made of iron, how could I take such a risk!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanli chuckled softly and said meaningfully, "Director Xu, you should be prepared. Perhaps Lu Rongyu really will be able to continue participating in the program."
Director Xu's expression froze: "What does Yan Li mean by that? Could it be that... something has changed regarding Lu Rongyu?"
Lu An'an tapped her knee with her hand, a playful smile curving her lips: "That young master of the Zhao family went to great lengths, even using his elite legal team, to try every possible way to clear Lu Rongyu's name. For him, it's not difficult to get Lu Rongyu to continue appearing on the show."
Director Xu looked shocked: "Zhao Junyi...he and Lu Rongyu...?"
Lu An'an shrugged: "I don't know."
[This is really interesting. Zhao Junyi wants to bring Lu Rongyu onto a variety show, and it seems like the plot has come full circle again?]
Her eyes held a hint of inexplicable amusement.
[Alright, I'm also very curious about Zhao Junyi's current identity. If it's really as I think, that would be very interesting.]
With that thought in mind, Lu An'an turned to Director Xu and smiled calmly, "In that case, my second brother and I will attend on time."
Director Xu was still in shock when he heard this and quickly nodded in agreement: "Okay, this special episode will be on the Nagqu Grassland, just like before, we'll meet there."
After saying that, Director Xu slowly stood up, smiled and said, "Then we'll head back now. We're sorry to have bothered you all so late."
Song Shiyun also stood up, smiling politely and gently: "Director Xu, you're too kind."
Lu Yanli put down his crossed legs and stood up straight: "I'll see you off, Director Xu."
After Lu Yanli returned, Song Shiyun asked, "An'an, did you encounter any danger at Baoshan Cliff? Who was your master who kidnapped you?"
Lu An'an's eyes flickered slightly, but she finally nodded gently: "Yes, it's him."
Lu Mingqian's expression instantly turned serious: "You... did you see him with your own eyes?"
Lu An'an lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly, concealing her complicated gaze, and gently shook her head: "I didn't see him. He only looked at me through the surveillance camera, he didn't actually show his face."
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingqian frowned deeply, as if he could wring water out of his brows, and said in a deep voice, "This person is very cautious in his actions."
He then asked, "Did he say anything useful?"
Lu An'an paused for a moment, subconsciously omitting the words the pervert had said, and picked out the less strange ones, slowly saying, "He said that Li Hao, Lu Rongyu, and Lu Yanhua were all pawns targeting the Lu family, and that his goal was to destroy the Lu family."
She paused slightly and continued, "After that, he said some tough things to me, basically saying that I should take on his challenge? That's all."
A subtle glint flashed in Lu An'an's eyes as she silently weighed the situation in her mind.
It's best not to tell my parents about his supposed nemesis for now. Besides, I haven't figured out whether what he said is true or false, so I don't want to cause them any more trouble.
Lu Mingqian and Song Shiyun exchanged a glance without making a sound. Meeting their eldest son's deep gaze, they remained silent for a moment before speaking gently, "It's getting late, An'an. Get some rest. You have to record a variety show tomorrow. We can discuss this matter in detail when you get back."
Song Shiyun also softly echoed, "Yes, it's too late. An'an, you should rest peacefully."
Lu Yanli yawned lazily as he stood up, casually pulling Lu An'an, who was still sitting on the sofa deep in thought, to her feet. He then pushed her upstairs, saying as they walked, "Alright, little sister, go to sleep. You have work tomorrow, so get some rest. Don't think too much. We'll deal with anything when we get back."
Lu An'an was pushed by Lu Yanli. After turning around and saying goodnight to her parents and brothers, she went upstairs with his help.
Upon arriving at the room, as Lu Yanli gently closed the door, Lu An'an's smile gradually faded, replaced by a thoughtful and solemn expression.
She sat cross-legged on the bed and called for customer service.
【7758, explain to me why all the items I obtained before, like the hypnosis item, are now grayed out?】
The customer service representative was very friendly.
【Honey, it's like this: because what you drew belonged to our seasonal blind boxes and limited-time blind boxes, the items are also limited-time only~】
Lu An'an didn't believe it; she thought the customer service representative was lying to her.
[Really? Are you trying to trick me again? Then why wasn't my Jade Needle retrieved?]
Upon hearing this, the customer service representative paused slightly, then explained in a more refined tone.
【Sweetie~ That Jade Needle isn't a virtual item, it's a real-world tool, so it won't be recycled~】
Lu An'an's lips curled into a mocking smile.
Is it because it's a tool, or because the blind box store that your Time and Space Bureau claims to be is just a scam to fool me?
The customer service representative on the other end was clearly taken aback by the sudden question and quickly tried to defend themselves.
【Honey~ Your words really make me, customer service, feel wronged~ Our Time and Space Bureau has always been based on integrity. Aren't the tools you used perfectly designed to solve your problems? This assistance is genuine.】
Lu An'an raised an eyebrow slightly, her eyes filled with even more inquiry.
[It's precisely because it was such a timely help that it seems a bit suspicious, as if it were a prop tailor-made for that particular incident and for me at the time. Then, seeing that I no longer needed it, you took it back. The traces of intention are very obvious!]
The customer service representative's figure trembled slightly in the virtual light and shadow, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and tried to defend himself.
Haha, darling, you're really joking! Every limited-time item in the system shop is the same; there's nothing specially designed for anyone.
Lu An'an's eyes remained deep and cold, and her words filled the customer service representative with panic and astonishment.
Oh? So it seems I was overthinking it?
However... 7758, you should know what kind of person I am, right?
