Chapter 120: Full-scale Boss Has Become the Top Streamer In the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 120: Find a Spot to Hang It
At Li Ji.
Once they left, Guo Jie finally dared to take a deep breath.
He nudged Lu Yao with his hand, a hint of dissatisfaction on his face. "Bro, you should've told me you knew her earlier. That was really inconsiderate."
Talking behind someone’s back and getting caught by the person in question was just too embarrassing. Moreover, Yan Zhixu's gaze left him feeling unsettled. He felt small and uneasy.
He grabbed the water cup on the table and took several big gulps. The refreshing coolness eased the pressure a little.
"…"
Lu Yao rubbed his forehead. If he remembered correctly, this guy was barely scraping by as a playboy, right?
But he had learned none of the typical traits of a rich second generation—he couldn't fight, didn't race cars, and certainly didn’t gamble or hire escorts.
Fine, he let all of that slide. But he should at least have a bit of backbone. How could he talk trash and then act like a scared dog when confronted?
He met Guo Jie’s resentful stare but lacked the confidence to explain. "What if I told you I don't know her, would you believe me?"
"Cut it out, keep talking and let’s see if I’ll believe a word that comes out of your mouth," Guo Jie snorted, rolling his eyes in exasperation.
Lu Yao: "…"
This world was tough. Even when telling the truth, no one believed you.
But he was just as confused. He didn’t understand why Yan Zhixu could recognize him so quickly. Had she looked up his information before?

Back at Shengshi Haoting.
Yan Jinxiu, who had been playing games upstairs, came down and saw what Yan Zhixu was holding. "What’s this thing? Why’d you buy it?"
Why come back with a bright red flag?
Yan Zhixu sat on the sofa, leisurely pouring herself a glass of water.
After drinking, she set the white glass cup down, then tossed the banner towards him. "Here’s your chance. Look closely before you speak."

....Yan Jinxiu, puzzled, opened the banner and read the large words on it. He gently set it down and looked at her suspiciously. "How much did you pay for this banner?"
Seeing the gentle way he laid the banner down, Yan Zhixu sneered softly.
Leaning back against the sofa, she lazily lifted an eyelid. "Guess."
Unable to extract any more information from her, Yan Jinxiu lost interest in continuing to press her.
He held the banner up and shouted loudly, "Aunt Wang! Aunt Wang!"
Aunt Wang, busy in the kitchen, hurried out.
Before she could speak, Yan Jinxiu shoved the banner into her arms.
"This kind of useless thing has no collection value. It’ll just gather dust in the storage room. Find a place to hang it up."
Aunt Wang opened the banner and saw the words of gratitude on it. She smiled joyfully and cradled it carefully. "Alright, I’ll hang it up properly."
She glanced around the living room, searching for the most prominent spot to display it.
Yan Zhixu shook her head lightly after glancing at both of them.
He was dismissing it with disdain, but it was clear he planned to hang it up anyway.
Her proud and easily irritated little brother was amusing when teased.
Ding—
Her phone vibrated.
She picked it up and saw a message from their mother.
[Ah Xu, your dad and I will be back tomorrow. Don’t miss me too much. Kisses. image]
Reading the message, a gentle smile appeared in Yan Zhixu’s eyes.
She knew very well that their mother had gone to support Rong Cheng at the Z.S.E fashion event. After attending the event, instead of returning to Haishi, she went to be with their father. There was definitely something more to the story.
Yan Zhixu: [Alright.]
After replying, she tossed her phone aside and closed her eyes to rest, teasing lightly, "That old man’s jealousy is still pretty strong."
Their mom had traveled all the way to be with their dad, probably to calm his jealousy down.
