Aunt Zhao stormed out of the room.
Everyone: "...."
During dinner that night, the atmosphere at the table was quiet. Only Qiao Xi was struggling with a pork knuckle.
Yu Siyan rested his chin on his hand, watching Qiao Xi eat.
Across from them, Yu Zheng was silent, He Xuefang had no appetite, and Li Cheng barely touched his food.
Xiao 6 was heartbroken: "Everything's ruined... everything's ruined... Master, how can you still have an appetite?"
Qiao Xi: "How can I stir things up if I don't eat well? Xiao 6, don't cry. Tears are precious pearls; the more you cry, the more you look like a pig."
Xiao 6: "..."
"Actually, Aunt Zhao and Li Cheng would make a good couple. How about we work hard and get Yu Siyan involved in competing for Aunt Zhao? As long as they both fight over one woman, it doesn't matter the age, right?"
Xiao 6: "..."
It would definitely format itself and erase this memory when it got back!
He Xuefang observed Yu Zheng's expression and put some food on his plate.
She said, "Dear, Ah Cheng has some free time these days. Maybe he can start at the company..."
"Let him stay in his current position for now," Yu Zheng said, wiping his mouth calmly. "He can start as the general manager."
General manager?!
Hadn't it been decided he would be the executive director?
For a moment, both He Xuefang and Li Cheng's expressions darkened.
Before they could say anything, Liu Bo came in with some documents and handed them to Yu Siyan.
Yu Siyan raised an eyebrow.
Yu Zheng got up and said, "And you, stop thinking about playing in the entertainment industry. Go to work with your brother."
With that, he left, leaving an oppressive silence in his wake.
Qiao Xi stopped gnawing on the pork knuckle.
Sigh, this atmosphere was really killing her appetite.
She picked up the pork knuckle, planning to eat outside.
Suddenly, Liu Bo said, "Young Madam, don't just look at the elder young master. Our younger young master's management skills aren't bad either!"
Qiao Xi: ?
She turned around and saw Yu Siyan, who was about to throw the contract, suddenly stop and narrow his eyes.
Then, the young master quickly snatched the contract back, hugged it to his chest, and left with a cold snort.
Liu Bo chuckled happily.
Qiao Xi: "..."
You think you're so great using me as a motivation?

He Xuefang took Li Cheng to their room and slammed the door!
"Keep it down," Li Cheng said.
"Living under someone else's roof is so frustrating! It would be great if that old man kicked the bucket one day!!" He Xuefang took a deep breath and said, "You must perform well in the company and surpass Yu Siyan!"
Li Cheng narrowed his eyes, "Don't worry. Yu Siyan is just a business idiot. Stepping on him will be a piece of cake."
Outside.
Yu Siyan happily held the contract and took a stroll in the moonlight.
When he stopped in the yard, he said, "Liu Bo, what's all this? It looks so barren. Move the trees back!"
Liu Bo: "Huh?"
Didn't you pick these yourself?
The young master's mind was a mystery!
"And also," Yu Siyan pointed to the corner of the wall, "the corner there is cracked. Fix it. If the corner is well-repaired, the wife will come home early."
Liu Bo: "..."
"Young Master," Cheng Xi reminded him softly, "weren't you planning to get a divorce?"
Yu Siyan paused, remembering.
He did want a divorce.
"Isn't there no chance to talk about it yet?" he said. "I'll find an opportunity in the next few days to discuss it with her."
Cheng Xi twitched his lips.
He's not just naive; he's also stubborn.
There have been hundreds of opportunities in the past few days, yet not only did the young master not mention divorce, but he even carried her princess-style at the banquet!
Can this marriage really end?
His phone rang with a message from the show team.
[Director Jin]: "Please provide your home addresses so the crew can arrange transportation and pick you up on time."
In her room, Qiao Xi's phone buzzed.
Half-asleep, she picked it up and glanced at it with sleepy eyes.
She casually typed a few words and then tossed the phone aside.
*
Director's Office.
The assistant suddenly gasped!
Director Jin frowned, "Did Qiao Xi curse again?"
"No..." The assistant shook his head and handed over the phone.
Director Jin took it and looked.
[Yu Siyan]: "Yu Siyan's address: No. 1, Nanhu Bay."
Director Jin said, "That's where the Yu family lives. Why are you so surprised?"
"Director Jin, keep looking!"
Director Jin's gaze moved down.
Below was Qiao Xi's message.
[Qiao Xi]: "No. 1, Nanhu Bay."
Director Jin: ?!?!?!
*
The live broadcast started at 8:30 sharp.
Due to Qiao Xi becoming a hot topic in the first episode, with the viral video creating a huge buzz, the second episode also had a lot of hype.
As soon as it started, there were already 100,000 viewers online.
The first scene was to pick up the guests.
The first ten celebrities had already been picked up and were sitting in different cars. The last stop was the Nanhu Bay area.
[I never thought I'd see a rich neighborhood in my lifetime!]
[Wow, I heard a lot of big shots live here! The Yu family's villa alone takes up half the area! Even a small piece of land here can be exchanged for 50 houses in the capital!]
[Little Master, Little Master! Ahhh! I'm fangirling!]
[Aren't there two more guests? Why does the show only have one live feed left?]
[Qiao Xi won't be coming, right? I specifically bought a membership for her! To be honest, I want to learn about postpartum care for sows.]
[Same here. I want to see what kind of trouble she stirs up next.]
At this moment, the car stopped.
Director Jin said, "We've arrived at the address of our last two guests—No. 1, Nanhu Bay! Follow the camera to get a glimpse of their lives!"
The bullet comments froze for a moment.
[??????]
[What does this mean? Two guests????]
[Qiao Xi also lives here?!]
[Are they living together?! What the heck!]
[Is Qiao Xi pretending to be rich? If she lives here, I'll cut off my head and give it to her as a poop stirrer!]
The camera moved, and the photographer knocked on the main door.
Cheng Xi opened the door, looking surprised, "Weren't you supposed to arrive at nine?"
It was half an hour early!
"Yes, nine, nine!" Director Jin didn't care and barged in!
She had purposely come early to catch some big news.
Yu Siyan, dressed in a bathrobe, walked out and stopped in his tracks when he saw the crew.
[Wow, he's truly photogenic!]
[Licking my screen, don't bother me!!!!!!!]
[He's really handsome. If he were a bit more normal, I'd replace my husband with him.]
[Sorry, Yi Han, I'm only cheating for a second.]
[Yu Siyan's godly looks are incredible. His youthful appearance is unmatched in the industry!]
Yu Siyan glanced sideways at Liu Bo.
Liu Bo immediately coughed and raised his voice, "Why did the crew come so early?"
In the master bedroom, Qiao Xi, who was still asleep, was woken up by Xiao 6.
Xiao 6: "Master, get up quickly! The crew is here!! They're going to film the bedroom!"
"Ah, let them come... what?!"
Qiao Xi jumped up.
Then she saw the director's reply from last night on her phone.
Director Jin: [Alright, I'll be there on time.]
Oh no, she had sent the address while half-asleep.
Their relationship couldn't be exposed, or it would ruin Yu Siyan's love life!
Outside, Director Jin's voice rang out, "We're going to film the bedroom now!"%MCEpastebin%
