Ai Bing seemed to have heard a great joke, and laughed so hard that his whole body trembled: "Me? Apologize to you? Who do you think you are? Do you deserve my apology? You are already honored that I am willing to use you."

Ye Qingshan's worldview was blown away. She pointed at herself in disbelief: "You hurt us, and you want us to feel honored???"

Ai Bing was fearless and said nonchalantly: "What can we do? I am more powerful than you two. If you want to blame someone, just blame your bad luck."

"Hey, tell your cousin to do it."

Seeing Ye Qingshan talking to someone on the phone, Ai Bing looked at her in surprise: "What do you want to do?"

Ye Qingshan hung up the phone, looking harmless: "What do I want to do? Of course I want to ban you."

Ai Bing almost laughed to tears: "Banned me? Just because of you?"

Ye Qingshan crossed her arms and looked at him coldly: "Just me."

"Oh my god, so she is a rich girl, no wonder she dares to say such things!" Qiansui patted Lu Jinzhao's face. The two of them looked at Ye Qingshan's message and watched the show.

Ye Qingshan didn't move or say anything, but she made Ai Bing feel uneasy. Until his cell phone rang, breaking the strange silence.

Seeing it was his agent, Ai Bing picked up the phone and asked impatiently, "Hello? What's up?"

"What did you say??!"

I don't know what the agent said on the other end, Ai Bing's expression became more and more ugly, and finally turned into fear. He hung up the phone, knelt on his knees, and looked at Ye Qingshan pleadingly: "Ms. Ye, I didn't know you were the person in charge. If I knew, I would never dare to use you like this! Please spare me this time!"

After hearing this, Ye Qingshan rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "From what you said, if I'm just an ordinary wage earner, you can use me if you want, or crush me if you want, right?"

Ai Bing choked: "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I shouldn't use anyone or frame anyone. I deserve to die! I won't dare to do it again!"

"You should apologize to my brother Chao, right?" Ye Qingshan put her hands on her hips and pointed at Lu Jinzhao: "If brother Chao agrees to forgive you, I will consider letting you go this time."

Ai Bing knelt down in front of Lu Jinzhao and said with a pleading face: "Mr. Lu, please forgive me this time, I beg you, I shouldn't have framed you, I deserve to die! I kowtow to you! I shouldn't have tried to step on you to get to the top, my popularity has declined recently, I want to buy a black press release saying that you stole my singing opportunity, abuse my fans and drag you down..."

"I was bewildered for a moment and believed other people's slander. Please let me go!"

Lu Jinchao raised his voice and said "Oh", as if he was curious: "Whose slander did you believe?"

Ai Bing began to stammer: "No...I can't say."

Ye Qingshan pretended to sigh: "Hey, I was planning to let you go if there was someone behind this, and go find the culprit. Now it seems that you don't need my mercy?"

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you! It was Mr. Huo! It was Huo Zhou! He told me that if I could cause you some trouble today, he would give me the resources for a new song! I've told you everything, please be magnanimous and let me go!"

Ai Bing kowtowed while crying. Lu Jinzhao moved aside and smiled softly at Ai Bing's pleading eyes, "I refuse."

"You! You go back on your word!" Ai Bing collapsed, "You bully others by taking advantage of your power!"

"I took advantage of my power to bully others...what's wrong?" Lu Jinzhao said slowly: "Who do you think you are? Do you deserve my forgiveness?"

Ye Qingshan realized that it was Ai Bing who had just said this, and quickly added with a smile: "What can we do? We are more powerful than you. If you want to blame someone, just blame your bad luck."

She was the only daughter of the Ye family, the daughter of Sui Ruling's younger sister, and she called the two brothers of the Ji Lian family her cousins. Now that Ji Lianxing had become her cousin, and Lu Jinchao was also considered her half cousin, there was absolutely no reason for her not to help her family.

Chitose narrowed his eyes and purred, "Great."

Ai Bing was taken away wailingly by the Ye family bodyguards who were waiting outside the house.

Lu Jinzhao thanked him sincerely: "Thank you."

In fact, he could have dealt with Ai Bing himself, but it felt really good to have someone backing him up.

Ye Qingshan pouted, "Who told him to use me? And he used me to hurt you. It's unforgivable! If I hadn't told my cousin that I was going to the scene to chase stars and asked him to give me the title of the person in charge, the original person in charge might have been killed by him today! Losing a job is a small matter. You may be besieged by your fans! What's the grudge between Huozhou and Brother Chao? Why do you have to go to this extent?"

Qiansui happily jumped onto Ye Qingshan's shoulder and licked her face: "I was wrong, I will never believe those romance novels again. Who said that rich daughters are all love-brained vicious female competitors! She is obviously a beautiful and kind-hearted female Bodhisattva!"

The scene was a little funny, and Lu Jinzhao couldn't help but chuckle: "I don't know, I don't even know who Huozhou is."

Ye Qingshan didn't know what he was laughing at. She turned around and took out a few brand new autograph plates from her bag. "I'll ask someone to check for you later. Brother Chao, can you sign a few more for me? I'll go back and give them to my roommates!"

"Okay." Lu Jinzhao signed seriously.

Ye Qingshan took a photo of him signing and sent it to the group: "I asked for an autograph for each of you. I think that's very considerate of me!"

"Aaaaah! Love you! Can you open a video and let Chao-nii say hello to us!"

"We just put on full makeup for the exhibition match! We're waiting for you!"

Ye Qingshan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Chao, my roommates are also your fans and want to video chat with you. Do you think it's convenient for you?"

Lu Jinzhao nodded: "Okay."

The video call was connected, and Lu Jinzhao raised his hand to greet them: "Hello."

The girls on the opposite side were relatively reserved. "Finally I meet Brother Chao in person. Hello, hello!"

"We are Shanshan's roommates, and we are all your fans!"

"Really? Thank you for your love."

Lu Jinzhao asked their names respectively, signed their names, took out some gift bags of peripherals and small cards from his peripheral backpack, and handed them to Ye Qingshan.

Qiansui rubbed his eyes and said, "This dormitory is full of rich ladies who are on the list of your live broadcast room."

Ye Qingshan was flattered and happily accepted it. She noticed that there was a 10cm cotton doll in Lu Jinzhao's backpack, and pointed at the doll and asked, "Brother Chao, is this the new peripheral you are going to release?"

Lu Jinchao took out the dolls, exactly four of them, and put them into the gift bag. "These are the samples from the previous cotton doll proofing where the size was wrong. There are no flaws, but the shape is not right. Director Tao sent them to me. Please accept them if you don't mind."

"I don't mind, I don't mind! Thank you, Brother Chao! But why do you carry all these with you?"

Qiansui curled his lips: "Of course I took it out temporarily from the system space. Who would carry their own peripherals with them?"

Lu Jinzhao took a look at it and smiled without showing any unusual emotions: "Sister Fanyin asked me to carry it with me, saying that I could give it to a lucky fan."

Ye Qingshan winked playfully: "Then I am really lucky."

He chatted with them for a while until the staff knocked on the door. After that, it was the professional players' special match. Lu Jinzhao only needed to sit in the audience seats outside the venue to watch the entire match. After the first day of competition, everyone went their separate ways in the underground garage.

While waiting for the traffic light to turn red, the central control screen popped up the reservation: "7pm, Rose Court, Lanxuan, Suman."

Qiansui slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot about this."

Lu Jinzhao raised his eyebrows: "I always feel that you are not like a sophisticated system, but more like a clumsy human being."

"You are...hateful!" Chitose said, "I will ignore you!"

"Sister Man, can I not go to the Rose and Lanxuan event later?"

After finishing the negotiation with the manufacturer and hanging up the phone, Su Man looked at the assistant in front of her who was hesitant to speak, and smiled helplessly: "What's the matter? Are you going on a date with your boyfriend?"

Xun Xun chuckled: "Yes, yes, Sister Man, you understand me!"

Su Man raised her hand and patted her shoulder. "Go ahead, go ahead. I won't ask you to work overtime today. You've worked hard during this period. I'll give you a bonus."

"Wow! Thank you Sister Man! Goodbye Sister Man!" Xun Xun happily picked up his bag and left work.

At seven o'clock, Lu Jinchao stepped into Lan Xuan's private room on time, and Su Man was already waiting for him inside.

Su Man was stunned when she saw the person coming. The "brother" that Xun Xun always recommended to her appeared in front of her. Should she call the assistant back to work overtime? Maybe she could even get an autograph...

She quickly gathered her thoughts, stood up and extended her hand to Lu Jinzhao: "Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm Su Man. I never thought that you are the boss behind Wangshu. You are really young and promising."

Lu Jinzhao politely shook his hand back, "Thank you, Mr. Su."

Su Man called the waiter to take the order. She politely asked Lu Jinchao if he had any dietary restrictions. She ordered some common and luxurious dishes. After closing the menu, she said, "I'm sure Mr. Lu is well aware of my purpose. Let's talk about product pricing and commissions?"

Qiansui displayed her desired price on the screen. Lu Jinzhao glanced at it and said, "Let's get straight to the point. The official price of the set is 899. It will be launched on all platforms simultaneously. We can give you an exclusive coupon for spending 800-100 in your live broadcast room. We guarantee that you get the lowest price on the entire network. The commission is 10%. What do you think?"

Su Man was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that Lu Jinchao's bid was exactly what she wanted. She smiled and said, "Deal."

The two chatted about some details of the cooperation while having dinner and signed the contract.

Su Man extended her hand: "Happy cooperation."

"It's a pleasure working with you." Lu Jinzhao shook hands again.

The phone rang, Su Man clicked to answer it, "Hello?"

"Sister Man, has the contract been signed?"

"I've signed it, what's wrong?"

"Then take a photo and send it to me. I'll upload it to the company's electronic file. I'm going to be on vacation starting tomorrow, so I'm afraid I'll forget it when I come to work the day after tomorrow. So do what you can do today."

"Okay." She switched off the phone interface, took a photo of the file and sent it to Xun Xun: "It's been sent, take a look."

"Party A...Lu...Jinzhao? Is that the Lu Jinzhao I was thinking of?!" Xun Xun's roar came from the other end: "Ahhhhhhh Sister Man, why didn't you tell me earlier that you were going to meet my brother! If I had known, I would have worked overtime to accompany you! Is it too late for me to rush over now!!!"

"Your brother is still here, so be careful about your image!" Su Man tilted her head, held her phone away to avoid the high notes, and smiled apologetically: "My assistant is a fan of yours, can you give me an autograph? I'll bring it back to her so she doesn't have to come to work and grab me and scream."

Lu Jinzhao didn't expect this to happen. He searched his pockets but didn't find his signature board or photo. He reluctantly took out two lollipops from his pocket and said, "Mr. Su, please leave your address. I'll send some peripherals to the assistant later."

Su Man let out a long sigh: "Okay, thank you Mr. Lu."

Xun Xun listened to the whole thing and was extremely excited: "Ahhh, thank you Sister Man, thank you Brother Chao! You are my gods!!!"

After dinner, Lu Jinzhao sat in the car for a while as he had nothing to do. He took out his phone and checked Weibo, where there was a huge uproar over Ai Bing.

The cause was that a passerby took a picture of Ai Bing being dragged out of the backstage by the Ye family bodyguards, and then posted it online. A fan saw it and soon discovered that almost all of Ai Bing's works had been removed from the shelves. Everyone thought that his reputation had collapsed, but when they searched for negative information, they found nothing.

So some netizens believed that Ai Bing had offended the Ye family and was banned by them.

Ai Bing's fans were not convinced and believed that the Ye family was bullying others by abusing their power and demanded an explanation from the Ye family.

Ye Qingshan would not tolerate them and directly dumped out a series of evidence including the deleted backstage recordings.

She was well prepared when she went to settle the score with Ai Bing.

@叶青珊v: Regarding Ai Bing's matter, I would like to formally respond here. I asked my cousin for an opportunity to go backstage to chase stars, but Ai Bing was scheming and said that his throat was not feeling well and asked me to find Brother Chao to replace him. I foolishly told Brother Chao and Brother Chao agreed to take over the job temporarily. However, when Ai Bing went on stage, his throat was fine. How could I not understand? I thought that this guy must have bought a negative press release to drag Brother Chao down. I originally wanted him to apologize after the exhibition match and withdraw the negative press release he had prepared, and let the matter be over. But... just listen to what he said.

"Don't you think you should apologize to us for what happened before?"

"Me? Apologize to you? Who do you think you are? Do you deserve my apology? You are already honored that I am willing to use you."

"You hurt us, and you want us to feel honored???"

"So what can I do? I am more powerful than you two. If you want to blame someone, just blame your bad luck."

There was a crackling noise.

"I shouldn't have tried to step on you to get ahead. My popularity has been declining recently. I wanted to buy a negative article saying that you stole my singing opportunity and abuse my fans to criticize me..."

Just a few sentences of audio can cause a huge uproar.

"Damn, I don't know what the melon is, but Ai Bing's face is really disgusting."

"So he wanted to bully others by taking advantage of his power, but ended up meeting someone tougher than him, right?"

"Although I think he deserved it, this incident shouldn't be enough for the authorities to ban him, right?"

@叶青珊v specifically forwarded this: You are right. I checked his dirt on him, guess what I found? [Tax documents] [Donation documents] [Video files]

Tax evasion, fraudulent donations, bullying of ordinary people, suppression of juniors, unspoken rules, one by one, all five evils are present.

"Damn it! No wonder this guy was banned!"

"Miss Ye did a great job! It's so satisfying!"

"I figured out the truth! The video of today's league is out, come and check it out [web link]. Remember when Ai Bing posted on Weibo a while ago that he would sing a new fan song at the league? It was indeed Lu Jinzhao who sang at the league today (I think he sang very well!), and the host also said that Ai Bing's throat was uncomfortable, but there was no sign of any problem with his throat at the scene."

"So actually it was Ai Bing who was trying to stir up trouble but failed. So funny."

"Am I the only one who thinks that Lu Jinzhao is a resourceful guy? He debuted with high ticket sales, his first work was a big production by Director Hu, he signed with the film emperor Yan's company, became the official spokesperson for General Seal, sang the theme song at the league, and there are so many men and women who publicly defend him. I really don't believe that he is just an ordinary person from a small town."

"Don't be so ridiculous, haters above. He has so many backgrounds in variety shows and tacky dramas, top scorers in the college entrance exams, a degree from Imperial University, all-A's in talent shows, gaming records, and acting skills shown in the audition clips that Director Hu released. You can't see any of this, right? If this level of ability is still considered a resourceful person, then how can you make some people feel bad? May I ask?"

"You are just jealous that so many rich and beautiful women like you, right? If you have the ability, you will also be liked by rich women. If you can't do it, stop talking here."

"I'm dying of laughter. You're so concerned about my brother. Is it because your boss has no schedule and is just sitting around doing nothing? My family is so busy that I don't have time to care about the other family's affairs~"
