Chapter 22 – When the successors of the two top wealthy families become fans of the same celebrity.

This morning, Xia Shi reported to her about the team’s work and gossiped a little. She said that Song Wen has been feeling down lately because Lu Jin, the CEO of the Lu Group, works hard every day from 9am to 9pm, while their boss is getting worse and worse every day.

These are all intentionally leaked by Song Wen to Xia Shi, hoping to make Gu Fuchen more normal through Miss Ruan’s connection and stop him from going crazy!

Ruan Yōu listened carefully.

Gu Fuchen seemed to be watching attentively, and Ruan Yōu was satisfied. She stared at the chicken leg that the male lead was eating in the movie and licked her lips.

She wasn’t hungry at all, but why did he have to eat so deliciously!

Slurp.

Ruan Yōu licked her lips and restrained her desire for the honey-glazed chicken leg. She crossed her arms and watched the movie on the couch.

Hold back.

She couldn’t interrupt her brother and dampen his enthusiasm for his career!

The first time Ruan Yōu watched this movie was two years ago. She focused on admiring the male lead’s acting skills and didn’t think much about what he was eating with his hands. But now…

In her eyes, this drama of wealthy families and power struggles had turned into a gourmet competition.

The scene where the impoverished male lead eats jianbing guozi1 on a stall looked so appetizing, and it was almost as if she could smell the aroma of eggs, chicken fillets, ham sausage, and vegetables from the jianbing guozi.

The perfect combination of meat and vegetables is only found in the humble jianbing guozi.

She even came up with a slogan for it.

Apart from the jianbing guozi, the hot and sour rice noodles also looked delicious. Slurp, slurp, the male lead ate the noodles quickly.

Later on, after the male lead returned to his wealthy family, everyone else was indulging in Western cuisine, while he was enjoying oil-braised prawns with his business partner. The peeled prawns glistened with a light sheen, covered in the oily, spicy sauce with Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and small hot peppers, making the mouth water just by looking at it. The first bite was an explosion of spicy and numbing flavors in the mouth, and the prawns were chewy and delicious. It was truly a heavenly delicacy.

It was an exciting and wonderful life!

But the male lead didn’t even eat it and absent-mindedly chatted with his partner while holding a peeled crayfish.

Ruan Yōu was anxious.

Let me eat!

What’s the point of holding the crayfish meat while chatting? Give it to me!

She would invest not just one million, but ten million, if she could eat it!

When the male lead was finally about to put the crayfish in his mouth, the plot skipped to the next scene.

Ruan Yōu : ?

Not even pretend to eat, just don’t eat at all?

Where is your professional ethics, entertainment industry celebrities? Are you worthy of the big crayfish in your hands?

Ruan Yōu sat on the sofa, eyes blazing with anger.

One hour and twenty minutes later, the movie finally ended.

The male lead never ate, and Ruan Yōu’s expectation couldn’t be met. It left her with an intense desire for food.

At the moment the movie ended, she really wanted to drive out and buy some crayfish. Fortunately, she still had a last bit of reason, remembering what she endured this hour of torment for.

Ruan Yōu turned on the lights in the private cinema and said with a fake smile, “This movie is really good and has given me a lot of inspiration.”

She had done so much, so Gu Fuchen should have some changes, right?

Next time she met Song Wen, she would definitely complain.

For the entire Bozhan Group, she had paid too much QAQ

Especially her stomach, it endured too much hunger and pain that shouldn’t have been endured.

After dropping subtle hints, Ruan Yōu heavily nodded at Gu Fuchen, then opened the door and walked quickly towards the elevator.

[Wei Wen!!]

[I’m here. Miss, what can I do for you?]

[I want to eat crayfish, jianbing guozi, hot and sour rice noodles, fried chicken legs, barbecue, stir-fried cold noodles, and takoyaki. Buy them secretly and don’t let anyone find out.]

Wei Wen : […Understood.]

Forty minutes later, Ruan Yōu sat in the small dining room on the seventh floor, secretly eating barbecue.

The oil-dripping beef skewers were sprinkled with lots of cumin and Sichuan pepper, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with a soft and juicy texture. The feeling of eating meat in big bites was too joyful!

Ruan Yōu was so happy that she rolled around on the sofa, whimpering. There is nothing happier in the world than being able to eat whatever you want.

Wei Wen watched with drooling mouth on the side.

If Miss could do some eating broadcast when she was still in the entertainment industry, she might’ve gained a lot of fans.

She looks so immersed when eating, making people happy!

Ruan Yōu waved at her, “Let’s eat together.”

She couldn’t finish all this food alone.

Good things should not be wasted!

Wei Wen had never eaten with her employer before, let alone now that it’s already past ten o’clock, and the soundproofed mansion was becoming increasingly quiet. When she returned, she could only see the lights still on in Gu Fuchen’s study on the sixth floor.

The housekeepers had already returned to the residential area to rest.

Ruan Yōu pushed the lamb skewers and chicken bones to the other side of the table. “Go ahead, eat.”

Wei Wen couldn’t resist the temptation and sat down, tentatively eating two bites.

Ruan Yōu took a sip of water and took a bite of the jianbing guozi.

Now that so much time had passed, the outer layer of the jianbing guozi made of mung bean flour and eggs had already become soft and no longer crispy like when it just came out of the oven.

Wei Wen put down the barbecue skewer and frowned slightly, “The owner of the food stall suggested that we should eat it as soon as possible, but it still took me some time to come back.

“This time was a bit rushed, next time if you want to eat, I’ll invite the food stall owner to come to our place and cook for you.”

Or she can have the chef at home learn to make it.

Ruan Yōu waved her hand, “It’s okay.”

Being able to eat so much of what she wanted in just a few minutes already made Ruan Yōu very satisfied.

She suddenly remembered something, put down the jianbing guozi with a face so stern that made Wei Wen shiver.

Then she whispered to Wei Wen with a mysteriously coaxing tone, “If someone finds out, you have to say that you ate all of these things.”

Wei Wen : ?

This was the first time she had to take the blame for her employer’s strange behavior.

Ruan Yōu blushed as she felt Wei Wen’s gaze on her and bit her lip, feeling a bit embarrassed. “If Gu…if my brother finds out that I ate all of these, then I’ll have to do a new round of spending homework.”

With watery eyes, she blinked at Wei Wen and unconsciously twisted her hands together, showing a mixture of frustration and coquettishness.

—Please, my dear butler, pretty please!

The Miss was acting cute, who could resist!

Wei Wen nodded like a little chick pecking at rice and hungrily ate several skewers of beef. “Mmm-hmm, I ate it, I ate it.”

Ruan Yōu breathed a sigh of relief and divided the takoyaki and large lobsters in half for Wei Wen.

Last time she ate egg waffles, she ended up doing her first-ever spending homework.

The bicycle she bought yesterday was her reward for doing her second homework.

Ruan Yōu now had a rough idea of what Gu Fu Chen was thinking.

Spend a few hundred million, and she can spend a little money a reward, like eating at a roadside stall or buying a simple bicycle.

Ruan Yōu’s life had been very rich and exciting lately. She even got to enjoy her private plane on the way to eat hotpot in City C today. Rolling around on the plane’s big bed, she didn’t have to squeeze into a seat and was comfortable and carefree. This is how the rich find happiness, in such a simple way.

But for now, she didn’t have any places to spend money. All her needs had been met.

If she were to be “punished” with another homework for eating some street food, she would really lose her mind!

At ten o’clock in the evening, Gu Fuchen was still sitting in his study.

He was thinking about how to talk to his sister.

Ruanruan said that today’s movie gave her a lot of inspiration.

The male lead’s acting was decent, but most of the plot involving the business district and business wars was far-fetched.

By taking this as her learning material, Ruanruan has gone down the wrong path.

But his sister liked it, and Gu Fuchen didn’t want to spoil her excitement.

After thinking for a moment, he sent a message to Song Wen.

[Contact the Wen family tomorrow and have their film and television company look for good business war scripts. If there are none, find a screenwriter to write an original script. The main content should revolve around the experience of a lost true daughter who returns to a wealthy family and climbs up step by step from the bottom to become the highest heir position.]

Song Wen happened to be still awake.

When he saw this message, his heart skipped a beat.

Miss Ruan has only returned for a few days, and Gu Fuchen has already gone so far as to “guide his sister to the top of the Bozhan”!

Maybe next time, he should directly call Miss Ruan as his boss. Anyway, in this prosperous world, it will eventually belong to her.

Lying Flat And Lazy.jpg

Song Wen doesn’t understand.

Miss Ruan, who has just returned home, is so noble that she doesn’t even care about money. If the position of successor is placed in front of her, she would probably only give a four-word evaluation of “stay away from me.”

While other wealthy families are fighting tooth and nail for the position of successor, why is the Gu family different?

What, is the seat of successor burning their butts?

As long as the siblings of the wealthy Gu family have some career ambitions, he doesn’t have to worry so much.

Lu Jin’s special assistant sends Song Wen messages every day bragging about how his boss works 996 every day, and as he watches the boss work hard and the company’s profits go up and up, he’s thrilled to death.

Bozhan, on the other hand.

The family is wealthy and powerful, living in a prosperous era, and outsiders who don’t understand the situation are completely unaware of Bozhan’s true state—

Its core has already rotted away.

Completely gone to the dogs.

No matter how much he wanted to criticize, all Song Wen could do was respond with a simple “Understood.”

Not long after he sent the reply, he received a message from another person surnamed Gu.

Gu Zexi : [Tomorrow, I’m going to pick up my Cousin Sister at the Gu’ family tomorrow’s mansion?!]

Gu Zexi is currently the only person in the Gu family besides Mr. Gu, Mrs. Ruan, and Young Master Gu who knows Ruan Yōu’s identity. He was excited all day to accompany Ruan Yōu to the Economic Conference.

They say it’s hard to be chase stars, but Gu Zexi never thought it would be this difficult.

In the past few days, Ruan Yōu’s Super Topics has been very lively, with a fierce competition revolving around the early morning sign-in event.

Super Topics sign-ins are a simple activity that records how long one has liked their idol, but in the past few days, the Super Topics has completely changed.

At 11:50 pm every night, there would be a lot of posts in the Super Topics discussing who would be the first to sign-in and win the title of “First Signed-in” in the group.

It all started two days ago.

That night, two male fans, “star” and “The Only Brother,” were staring at the sign-in page. Later, “The Only Brother” won and proudly posted a picture of himself showing that he was the First Signed-in, along with the caption:

[I, forever number one.]

It was very arrogant and proud.

Without even thinking, Gu Zexi knew that the person who posted it was Gu Fuchen. He spent three hours digesting the news that Gu Fuchen was a childish person and then spent another hour trying hard to restrain himself from sending this news to someone else.

Gu Fuchen’s post did not attract the attention of most people. As a cousin, Gu Zexi gave precious likes and commented, [Great job, definitely a true fan!]

Gu Fuchen was praised so much that he was proud enough to reply with two words:

[Of course.]

In Gu Zexi’s mind, he suddenly saw the image of a proud Shiba Inu lifting its noble head and looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, revealing its beautiful profile and noble jawline.

It was probably around the time when Gu Fuchen replied to Gu Zexi’s message.

The incident began to escalate. The male fan “star” suddenly joined the debate, claiming that he was the “truest true fan.”

Next, nder the hype of the Super Topics fans, Gu Fuchen and “star” childishly started a zero o’clock sign-in competition:

[Fighting for the title of ‘true fan,’ let’s go!]

[My fate is in my own hands, and I’ll be the first to sign-in.]

[This is not just a game, it’s a battle for glory!]

However, “star” suddenly withdrew from the competition two days ago, but re-joined last night.

The competition was intense and full of twists and turns, and in the eyes of the Super Topics fans, it was as exciting as the World Cup.

Gu Zexi watched the whole thing as a bystander and couldn’t help but think:

You guys are really boring, childish, and wasting time!

Is there really so much drama over a sign-in page?

Gu Zexi couldn’t help but worry about Bozhan.
