The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Novel - Chapter 418

Chapter 418: Fu Zhi, The Best Sister In The World

At around five o’clock in the evening, they reached the hot pot restaurant next to No.1 High School that Song Fang had highly recommended.

This hot pot restaurant was particularly popular in Yu City, and it was frequented by many online celebrities. They would come to this restaurant to sample the food and give recommendations to their followers.

Just now, a girl holding a selfie stick while having a live-streaming session had darted a few glances at Fu Zhi and her group when they’d entered the restaurant.

Song Fang raised a wine bottle in the air just like people usually did when they were celebrating something. “Honestly, I didn’t expect us to beat Hang Yuan at all today. After all, all of them are professional athletes! Even the school authorities didn’t harbor much hope for us!”

However, life was unpredictable, and they had won the basketball match in the end. Song Fang pointed at Fu Zhi, who was nibbling on a pork rib and added, “All of this would have been impossible without our Sister Zhi. She first joined the cheerleading team, and then she helped us beat Hang Yuan in the basketball match. I, Song Fang, will never forget…”

Song Fang wiped invisible tears off his face, pulled Fu Zhi’s hand, which was holding a pork rib up, and forced her to lift her chin with the wine bottle. Then, he said, “Your great contribution!!!”

As she looked at Song Fang, Fu Zhi did not know what to say. She just wanted to enjoy her pork rib, and honestly, she thought Song Fang’s acting skills s*cked.

However, Song Fang did not know this. He put her hand and the wine bottle down, raised his arm into the air, and shouted heroically, “Bottoms up, guys! Don’t worry about me!”

The first day of the exchange meeting ended with No.1 High School’s victory. Everyone in the school had learned about it, and most of the boys that had come to the gathering were from Class 21.

Class 21 had been known as the worst class in No.1 High School. Every student in the class was a delinquent or a young master from a rich family.

Right now, all of them felt as if they were in seventh heaven after the exchange meeting today.

Wang Yu slammed a wine bottle on the table and said, “Today is the best day of my life. Did you guys see that? The students from Qian Wenrui’s class act as if they’re the best in the world—of course, I’m not talking about you, Yubai—but they still need us, Class 21, to come forward and save the world when a problem arises.”

“Yeah, right! When I was on the bleachers, I heard the Chemistry teacher from Class 16 tell Qian Wenrui that she really regretted that she hadn’t gotten Fu Zhi into her class and she also asked if Qian Wenrui felt the same way. You guys don’t know this, but Qian Wenrui’s face was so dark that I have never seen anything darker.”

“I’m sure no one will dare say we’re a bunch of good-for-nothings anymore! However, all of this would have been impossible without Sister Zhi. Come on, let’s drink to Sister Zhi!”

This restaurant lived up to its name as one of the best hot pot restaurants in Yu City, and Fu Zhi fell in love with the barbecue there.

While the boys were chitchatting, she sent a message to Li Nanli on WeChat.

[Have you had dinner yet?]

[The first picture is the barbecue, while the second picture is the menu. See if there’s anything you want to eat and transfer the money to me through WeChat. Oh yeah, remember to add the car fare. I will deliver the food to you later.]

——

Li Nanli had an important meeting with a customer from the capital. By the time he returned to Yu City, it was already 6:00 p.m.

Once he got off the plane and turned on his phone, he saw the messages that Fu Zhi had sent to him at roughly 5:40 p.m.

The first thing he saw was not the menu but a slender hand in the picture. It was a beautiful hand, and there was a white electronic watch that cost about 6 digits on the wrist.

Lu Yumo did not like to wear electronic watches, while Lu Yushen had a small mole on his right index finger.

Pressing his lips firmly, Li Nanli replied, [I have to earn money so that I can buy more milk for you. It’s too expensive for you to come to the Li Mansion by cab. Send me your location and I will come to pick you up later.]

Almost at the same moment that he sent the message, Liu Mi, who was sitting on the passenger seat, suddenly exclaimed, “President Li! There are a few hot topics about Ms. Fu on Weibo again!”

He then showed his phone to Li Nanli.

##Fu Zhi, the best sister in the world#

#108 reasons why Fu Zhi is the best girlfriend#

When Li Nanli saw the titles of those topics, he was dumbfounded.

He began to wonder if Fu Zhi had cheated on him.

——

After Fu Zhi finished the barbecue, Song Fang threw a few sliced beef and lamb pieces in the hot pot.

Before the meat was cooked, Fu Zhi’s phone rang.

She unlocked her phone and saw two messages from Li Nanli.

[You joined the cheerleading team?]

When Fu Zhi saw the message, although messages could not convey emotion, she did not know why but her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She could not explain or describe the feeling well. She knew that Li Nanli had gone to the capital for a meeting today.

Perhaps Ye Jiu had been poisoning his mind with soap dramas filled with nonsensical plots of phony female characters that would cheat on their husband or boyfriend, as she had a feeling that she was cheating on Li Nanli.

Usually, a phony female character did not meet a good end.

Most of them ended up with a failed marriage, their companies went bankrupt, or they went crazy.

Thus, Fu Zhi felt that she should explain a bit.

[The leader of our school’s cheerleading team quit, so for the wellbeing of my school, I had to pick up the baton!]

[Of course! I’m just rooting for my own brothers!]

[How did you know that I joined the cheerleading team? Did you come to my school today?]

Li Nanli then replied, [Nope.]

Just as Fu Zhi started wondering how Li Nanli knew she had joined the cheerleading team, Li Nanli sent another message.

[I learned about it on Weibo.]

Fu Zhi replied, [???]

She was even more confused.

‘Weibo? How did he learn about it on Weibo?’

With that thought in mind, Fu Zhi exited WeChat and entered Weibo. As she was scrolling through Weibo, the young lady who had been holding a selfie stick and looking at Fu Zhi this whole time said something to her fans and got to her feet.

“Erm, I’m sorry, but can I have a few minutes with you?” the young lady asked Song Fang.

Perhaps he had drunk some wine, but the moon tonight was bright and his friends were whistling at him as Song Fang took Fu Zhi’s bag, pulled out a pen, and began writing his QQ number on the young lady’s palm.

“As long as you take the initiative, then we can write a story of our own!”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t want to write a story with you.” The young lady pulled her hand away from Song Fang’s paw and looked at the girl beside him. “Are you Fu Zhi?”

Fu Zhi did not raise her head as she answered, “Yeah.”

“Erm, my stage name is Ginger, and I’m a content curator for Bilibili. I like you very much…”

“Pfft—” Lu Yumo spilled all his milk on Song Fang’s face.

While he broke into laughter, he wiped Song Fang’s face with a paper towel and explained, “I’m so sorry about it. I just… Ha ha ha… I just can’t. This is so hilarious. Do you know how funny it is?”

Song Fang said, “Nobody would say you are mute if you didn’t talk!”

When the young lady who called herself Ginger saw Fu Zhi’s Weibo, her eyes glowed and she said, “Are you watching the video that I posted on Bilibili?”

On the screen of the ultra-slim phone, the top hot topic on Weibo was a video of a dance and a basketball match that someone had transported from Bilibili.

No sooner had the gentle, melodious music rang out than a group of girls wearing short-sleeved shirts and skirts appeared on the screen.

The girl that captured the most attention was the girl standing in the center of the team. Her attire was slightly different from the rest of the team members’ clothes as well.

Perhaps the cameraman was attracted to Fu Zhi, as he had not moved the camera away from her even once.

Fu Zhi was so shocked that she was bereft of speech.

She looked toward the bottom left corner and realized that this video had garnered more than 200,000 views.

Although the number of hits was not overwhelmingly high, it was growing steadily.

The bullet comments had not stopped coming since the music had started.

[Wow! Isn’t she Fu Zhi? So she’s also the leader of No.1 High School’s cheerleading team?]

[She is so adorable! Although the song is not sung by her, she’s still really cute!]

…

The dance only lasted about 3 minutes. Fu Zhi not only danced well, but she had a good-looking face as well. Everyone who clicked on the video was not able to peel their eyes from her.

Then, after she finished her dance, she shouted toward the crowd, “Go get them, brothers!”

[D*mn it! She’s good! How could anyone resist a girl like her?]

[She dances even better than Sugar Pops!]

[Can I be your brother too?]

[Stop dreaming. As one of Fu Zhi’s loyal fans, I can tell you that she has 3 brothers and all of them are extremely good-looking! You wouldn’t even get a chance!]

[Is Fu Zhi going to be a celebrity? Does she have a team as well? She’s pretty good at marketing herself, and if she’s cast in a movie with other actors, I’m sure she will be able to become a popular figure in no time.]

…

The video had not ended yet. The background dimmed for a moment, and a second later, a row of words written in a special font popped up in the video: [Do you think this is the end? No! Now is the best part!]

The remaining 2 minutes of the video were filled with Fu Zhi’s one-handed dunks, behind-the-back shots, and steals with dribbles to name a few.

[Erm, something must be wrong with my eyes. The dancer and the basketball player are the same person, right?] someone asked in the bullet comments section.

[I think so…] somebody else replied.

The crowd fell silent for a moment before blowing up.

[Holy sh*t!]

[Who can resist a girl that can dance and play basketball at the same time? She’s such a keeper!]

[Is Fu Zhi going to become an actress too?]

[Will she be cast in the same movie as Ye Shiyun? I’m sorry if I offended Ye Shiyun’s fans, but they do look like they could make a good couple.]

…

She was cool, she was rich, and she was good at basketball. In just a little time, Fu Zhi had become the second most sought-after girlfriend in her country.

After she finished watching the video, Fu Zhi pinched the spot between her eyebrows and said, “So you’re the one who made this video?”

Ms. Ginger nodded profusely. “The view count on Weibo is not that high, but the video has garnered more than 600,000 hits on Bilibili!”

Ginger had only heard about the exchange meeting between No.1 High School and Hang Yuan when she’d arrived in Yu City this afternoon to have a traveling tour of Yu City. Since she had a lot of time and she did not have any activities yet, she had gone to No.1 High School to watch the exchange meeting. Initially, she’d planned to take a few photos of Ouyang Ya to increase her popularity, but little had she expected that while she was holding a live-streaming session, many of her viewers would recognize Fu Zhi, who was playing basketball at the time.

Ginger was just a novice content curator on Bilibili. After seeing how popular Fu Zhi was, she’d asked the reporters of Yu City for the recording. Then, she had turned the recording into a video and uploaded it to Bilibili. She initially had not had much hope for it, but to her surprise, the video had received a good response, and she had obtained quite a number of new followers.

“Erm, Ms. Fu, do you have an account on Bilibili?”

“Nope. She doesn’t have one,” Lu Yubai chimed in as he pushed Ginger’s selfie stick away. Then, he wrapped his arm around Fu Zhi’s shoulder and added, “She only cares about learning and doesn’t need to gain popularity. We do appreciate your kindness, but if possible, can you delete the video now?”

Every coin had two sides, and so did the comments on the internet. Some of them were nice, while some of them were harsh.

Fu Zhi did not need any popularity at all, and judging from the previous incidents, Lu Yubai was worried that someone might misunderstand Fu Zhi again.

Ginger was stunned. She did not want to give up such a good chance to become famous, so she pressed on. “Huh? Delete the video? But after you become famous through this video, you can pursue a full-time career as an actress. Have you thought it through? I can help you…”

Fu Zhi replied simply, “No, thank you. Please delete the video.”

——

It was 7:00 p.m. by the time Ouyang Ya saw the post.

Truth be told, Ouyang Ya had underestimated the imaginative power of the netizens. She let out a scoff, and while she was going through her Wechat Moments, her finger suddenly froze on a post.

It had been published by Mrs. Li.
