“Brother Mingyu, the three of you are dressed like a family today. It’s like the eldest brother, second sister, and third brother!” Xu Fu remarked, looking at the three of them in matching black outfits.
Chen Su agreed, “Indeed, it’s quite similar.”
With all three of them gathered, the tension dissipated. It was like a sibling version of a matching puzzle game.
“You little rascal, ” Lu Mingyu patted Jiang Jinshi’s hat and stared down at him.
“Where is your little uncle?”
Jiang Jinshi’s eyes were blocked by the hat, making it difficult to see the person in front of him. He lifted the hat upward, tilting his head back, and sulked, ‘You messed up my hairstyle!”
Jiang Jinshi inwardly sighed, remembering to be polite. He decided to forgive this seemingly not-so-bright uncle.
“Uncle, do you need something with my little uncle?”
This time, Lu Mingyu didn’t pay much attention to the way he was addressed. “Should I ask you, or should you ask me? Little rascal, you’re throwing a question back at me without answering mine. Do you always get zero on your exams?”
Jiang Jinshi replied without hesitation, “Of course not!”
The lounge suddenly became noisy.
“Teacher Qin.”
Lu Yang turned to the source of the voices and saw Qin Yitan, whom he hadn’t seen since the survival variety show.
Qin Yitan entered with great fanfare, not at all low-key.
Qin Yitan had a new set of managers and assistants with him, different from the ones seen on the variety show.
When he saw Lu Yang, he quickened his pace and stood in front of her, pleasantly surprised. “I didn’t expect to see you here!”
Lu Mingyu’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, instantly displeased, but he didn’t show it as directly as usual.
Lu Mingyu was well aware of what lay behind Qin Yitan, but he didn’t want to engage. He remained calm and indifferent, allowing Qin Yitan to do as he pleased. However, it didn’t mean that the other party could freely touch the people around him.
Before long, another rat had come on its own.
Lu Yang pursed her lips slightly and smiled lightly. “Hello.”
“Qin San Shao, we have a performance to prepare for later, so it’s not appropriate to linger here.” Qin Yitan’s manager reminded him. “Our lounge is elsewhere. ”
Lu Yang glanced at them, her gaze meeting the manager’s for a brief two seconds, and she could see the calculated cunningness in the other person’s eyes.
The enemy’s helper was cunning, while our side’s brother was naive and sweet.
Despite such an obvious disparity, Lu Mingyu was still able to stay in the entertainment industry, and Chen Suls contribution couldn’t be overlooked.
However, a special elite team had been set up to manage the entertainment industry, which seemed like a waste of talent.
When Lu Yang didn’t speak, she wore a relaxed and faint smile, devoid of any seriousness. But sometimes, it gave an unexpectedly oppressive feeling.
Qin Yitan’s manager sensed a hint of pressure.
“Why the rush? We’re not the first ones performing,” Qin Yitan didn’t want to leave so early. “Lu Yang, will you be participating in any other variety shows recently?”
Chen Su, who was standing aside, spoke seriously, “Whether Lu Yang participates in any variety shows or records any programs seems to have no relation to Qin San Shao.”
“Who said there’s no relation?” Qin Yitan instinctively said, “I can help make announcements then!”
Flattery was ineffective against an NPC. Even the title of the first president of the fan club had been taken by Jin Yao. He could reluctantly accept it the first two times, but three times was too much. The next president of the fan club must be Qin Yitan!
Chen Su was speechless.
“I, who is diligently guarding against flatterers, seem like a clown.”
Lu Yang’s gaze once again swept over Qin Yitan’s manager, casually asking,
“What kind of publicity?”
Qin Yitan replied, “Of course, it’s about how outstanding you are!”
“Is that so?”
“Of course, your excellence is evident to everyone!” Qin Yitan shivered every time he recalled the sinister eyes of the wolverine.
“I can’t see the eyes of a senior, but I noticed you,” Lu Yang’s tone was calm, without any trace of strangeness. “What makes me outstanding?” The listeners, however, had their own thoughts.
Qin Yitan thought she was being modest, so he quickly said, “It’s true!”
The manager noticed that Lu Yang was reprimanding Qin Yitan for not greeting Lu Mingyu on her own and silently cursed her for being blind and ignoring her senior, while Qin Yitan seemed happily accepting it.
Chen Su also noticed this and said, “Qin San Shao, having small eyes is not an excuse for considering no one else important.”
Qin Yitan was taken aback.
The rest of the people were immersed in watching the scene and quietly discussing when Lu Mingyu and Qin Yitan would start fighting.
After waiting for a while, the expected confrontation didn’t happen. Lu Mingyu remained unusually calm, while Qin Yitan began acting overly accommodating, which was extremely strange.
The manager composed himself and said, “Qin San Shao has a discerning eye and naturally recognizes intelligent people. Miss Lu doesn’t need to be modest. Besides, there aren’t many intelligent people in the world. I think Qin San
Shao’s eyes are just right.”
He looked at Chen Su and continued, “As for considering no one else important, true disregard for others should be when someone insults and physically attacks others in inappropriate places. Wouldn’t you agree?” Insulting her brother, considering no one else important.
Lu Yang quietly tugged at her lips and smiled faintly, saying, “Your eyes are very sharp.”
The manager was confused.
Why was she praising him now?
“The only downside is the lack of clarity between black and white. I suggest you make an appointment with an ophthalmologist to see what the reason might be.” Lu Yang paused for a moment and continued, “It’s very likely a result of neurological disorder.”
The manager was baffled.
If he hadn’t investigated Lu Yang’s background, he would have surely taken her serious suggestion and not heard the underlying meaning.
Now he was certain that she was mocking him for being unable to distinguish between black and white and implying that he had something wrong with his brain for praising Qin Yitan so highly.
Qin Yitan couldn’t grasp the hidden meaning behind their conversation and was completely confused about what they were talking about.
“Lu Yang, are you serious?” Qin Yitan urged his manager, “You go, I’ll handle the program myself.”
“No need,” the manager replied.
“Lu Yang, do you think he can be saved?” Qin Yitan asked again.
Jiang Jinshi racked his brain trying to understand their conversation but couldn’t quite follow. He decided to give up and as he snapped back to reality, he heard Qin Yitan’s question. Taking the opportunity, he spoke up:
“He can be saved, but you’re so rude.”
Qin Yitan looked down at Jiang Jinshi, ‘What did you say?”
Jiang Jinshi sneered, “Such a big person, yet you’re asking such a silly question. ”
Although Jiang Jinshi didn’t fully understand the dynamics between adults, he could tell that Qin Yitan was intentionally ignoring Lu Mingyu and trying to embarrass him.
Qin Yitan instantly became annoyed, thinking the little brat wanted to scold him. But before he could react, Jiang Jinshi wrinkled his little face and said to Lu Yang, “Sister, I want to go to the restroom.”
He had drunk too much beverage just now.
“Brother, take him to the restroom,” Lu Yang said, looking at Lu Mingyu.
Suppressing the urge to curse, Lu Mingyu glanced at Jiang Jinshi and said reluctantly, “Fine, little ghost, come with me.”
Just as Lu Mingyu turned around, he exchanged a look with Chen Su, indicating that the latter should take care of Lu Yang.
As soon as Lu Mingyu left, Lu Yang made it clear, “If you don’t want to say hello, then don’t approach.”
Qin Yitan immediately said, “Of course I want to! How could I not!”
“With so many people wanting us to greet them, there’s no chance, ” the manager scoffed, “They don’t know how to appreciate.”
Hearing this, Lu Yang wasn’t angry. Instead, she smiled and said, “Lu Mingyu’s sister, please call me like that from now on. Thank you.”
This was clearly playing along.
Everyone knew the relationship between Lu Mingyu and Qin Yitan.
However, before the manager could say anything, Qin Yitan agreed.
“Of course, I’m happy! Lu Mingyu’s sister, Lu Yang!”
Onlookers: ‘
Truly a sight to behold.
The long and convoluted name and the eccentric heir with a sycophantic attitude.
The manager led Qin Yitan away to record the program while Lu Yang, Chen Su, and the returning Lu Mingyu and Jiang Jinshi waited.
“Will my brother’s performance be deleted?” Lu Yang abruptly asked. “Huh?” Chen Su was surprised, “Deleted? Why would it be deleted?”
Lu Yang replied, “I don’t know, I was just curious.”
Chen Su looked at her.
Lu Yang said, “I’m guessing.”
Chen Su was at a loss for words and thought, “Couldn’t she have guessed something good?”
However, deleting segments or scenes from programs was not uncommon in the industry. Chen Su thought that Lu Yang had reminded him to be more attentive.
After all, Lu Mingyu had put a lot of effort and sweat into presenting such a great stage, and they couldn’t let it go to waste.
Lu Mingyu was originally supposed to change his clothes after the performance, but upon hearing Xu Fu’s words, he decided not to and kept wearing the same outfit.
“Yang, what do you want to eat tonight?” Lu Mingyu asked.
“I’m fine with anything. What were you planning to eat?” Lu Yang responded.
Chen Su chimed in, “We were originally planning to starve, but unfortunately, we’ll have to settle for a southeast wind tonight instead of living on air. We won’t even get to taste the northwest wind.” Lu Yang was speechless.
It sounded truly pitiful and utterly bleak.
“I’m happy as long as my brother is here. No one else matters.”
“I care.”
He stared straight into her eyes and repeated, “I care..”
