Chu Qianze gave up after a while of getting no response.

As for his response to the invitation, since the plot requires it, he would have to agree.

Chu Qianze looked at the news on his phone. He was going to wait until he got home to read all the contents of the event, and then give a reply.

“Where’s your home?” Yun Zhoujie asked.

“Just drop me on XXX Road.” Chu Qianze put away his phone, putting it in his pocket.

“XXX Apartment?” Yun Zhoujie asked.

Chu Qianze was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, “Yes, that’s right. It’s quite close to Group A.”

Yun Zhoujie is the president of Group A, so it’s not surprising for him to know the community nearby.

“Yeah.” Without making a sound, Yun Zhoujie turned around. 

Seeing that he was near Chu Qianze’s neighborhood, he asked. “Do I need to take you in?”

“No need. Just stop by the side.” Chu Qianze said and smiled.

Yun Zhoujie found a place to stop.

 

“Thank you, I’ll go first.” Chu Qianze unfastened his seatbelt, opened the door, and prepared to get out of the car. 

“Wait.” Yun Zhoujie stopped him.

Seeing that Chu Qianze had stopped moving and was looking at him if he had something else to do, he said. “This is my business card. You can contact me if you need anything.” 

Chu Qianze took the business card and glanced at it, then smiled and said, “Okay, then we are destined to meet again~”

After saying that, he got out of the car and closed the door. He waved at Yun Zhoujie and walked towards the community.

Yun Zhoujie watched the other party leave. He glanced at the name of the community, and then drove away.

He originally planned to go home, thinking about giving himself a day off, but since he was already near the company, he simply went.

He still prefers the company’s office atmosphere.

 

Back at the company, he went to the secretary’s office and knocked on the door.

The secretary was stunned when he saw Yun Zhoujie, but he quickly calmed down. He stood up and said to Yun Zhoujie, “President Yun, what are your orders?”

“If there’s anything I need to do today, send it all to my office.” Yun Zhoujie said, then added. “Where’s Ye Zhong? Let him come to my office.”

“Yes.” The secretary responded.

Yun Zhoujie went back to his office and started working on the documents.

“Cousin, you’re here! Where did you go last night? You promised me that I could take you out to relax, but I waited for no one for a long time, and you didn’t even answer my calls. Did you block me again and stay up late for work?” Ye Zhong opened the door. His complaints were heard even before he arrived, and his tone was still accusatory.

Yun Zhoujie snorted coldly, “You still have the nerve to say that? I went to that bar and didn’t see you at all. Moreover, the place you said to relax was a gay bar?”

“What gay bar?” Ye Zhong’s eyes widened, “Brother, don’t slander me! I’m talking about Qing bar here! It’s clearer1 than drinking water!” 

Qing?

Seeing that Ye Zhong really didn’t seem to be lying, Yun Zhoujie turned on his phone. Ye Zhong did call himself several times yesterday, but he muted his phone because of a meeting, and he forgot to change it later.

 

He opened the chat page with Ye Zhong, glanced at the bar name sent by the man, and then searched for the name of the gay bar.

There is only one difference between the store name of the gay bar and Qing Bar.

Last night was so dark that the only way to tell the name of the bar was by gazing at the neon light sign. Regarding the gay bar, it appears that a stroke was not displayed as a result of a malfunction. As a result, it has the exact same name as the Qing bar.

“Why do you want to take me to Qing bar?”

Ye Zhong replied, “Isn’t it because you are like an ascetic monk every day? I wanted to show you the nightlife of young people. This is what I knew when I was watching the live broadcast.”

“Live broadcast?” Yun Zhoujie raised his voice a little.

“It was Zhong Mu’s live broadcast. He said at that time that there were two bars; one was the Qing bar, and the other was the gay bar. I thought that Qing was very good, so I wanted to take you there. As for Zhong Mu.. this morning, the official website released the event. He asked me to take him to the anchor offline event.”

Yun Zhoujie thought of that person. His expression became a little cold, “You agreed?”

Ye Zhong quickly shook his head and said, “Not yet. I thought you two had something going on before, so I’m willing to be an assist. As a result, you guys aren’t what he said at all. Why else am I going to be involved with him?”

“He wants to go to the event?” Yun Zhoujie asked.

“Yes, I don’t know why though.” Ye Zhong said heavily.

“Go, and give him a ticket.” Yun Zhoujie gave the order.

Ye Zhong was puzzled, but he still responded. He noticed something was wrong, and asked. “Cousin, did something happen?”

“Nothing.”

Seeing Yun Zhoujie like this, only a ghost would believe it. Ye Zhong couldn’t wait any longer. “Cousin, did that Zhong Mu do something? I’ll go teach him a lesson!”

“I will investigate this matter clearly, you don’t need to get involved.”

Thinking of what happened yesterday, Yun Zhoujie said in a faint tone, “I can deal with it myself.”

Ye Zhong’s arrogance was extinguished immediately.

Yes.. how could he forget this man’s past deeds just because of that innocent appearance? He didn’t know who was so unlucky to be targeted by his cousin.

Ye Zhong thought for a while, and suddenly remembered. If Zhong Mu wasn’t the anchor that his cousin was watching, then who was it?

“Brother, have you been addicted to watching live broadcasts recently? If there’s something good, can you recommend one to me?”

Ye Zhong had just finished speaking when he saw his cousin looking over.

His eyelids couldn’t stop twitching, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

“Cousin, it’s fine. I’ll go first.”

“I see that you haven’t been busy. Take these things away and deal with them.” Yun Zhoujie assigned the task to him again.

“..!”

Ye Zhong’s face turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he said with a bitter face, “Cousin, you’re killing me.”

In the end, he still picked up the documents and walked out of the office.

Ye Zhong: I’ve carried a burden that, at my age, I cannot bear.

Yun Zhoujie opened the document on the table, which was Zhong Mu’s information.

On the surface, this person wanted to chase after him, but in fact, he had been using what happened at the reception to stir up heat. He was ambiguous and was entangled with many people behind his back.

Recently, he was even inquiring about Chu Qianze, saying that he wanted to fall in love with him wholeheartedly?

He wanted to see what kind of calculations Zhong Mu had in mind.

 

After returning home, Chu Qianze directly turned on the computer and browsed the schedule of the anchor offline activities in detail.

“There are morning sessions and afternoon sessions at the Anchor Offline event. The period can be chosen by the anchors according to their own requirements. The anchors must coordinate with the company in advance to arrange the time and place for the organization to sign and take photos with fans. The plaza will host a night time talent show.” There are quite a few tricks.

Chu Qianze glanced at the schedule selection above and was troubled.

Too lazy to make a choice, he simply opened the live broadcast app, switched to his channel, and sent a message out.

[Received an invitation to the Anchor Offline event, do you want me to participate in the morning session or the afternoon session? By the way, I was delayed at noon today, so I’ll make it up during the live broadcast tonight, and everyone, remember to bring something to eat. (laughs)]

[The anchor posted a poll.]

[☐ Morning session]

[☐ Afternoon session]

“That’s it.”

It’s better to leave it to the fans.

Chu Qianze felt relieved and began to think about what to eat during the live broadcast later tonight.

After rummaging through the ingredients in the refrigerator, he made a decision.

Seeing that the time was approaching, Chu Qianze was just about to start the live broadcast when he suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.

He didn’t remember until he saw himself through the black screen of his mobile phone.

Forgot to change clothes.

Chu Qianze was still wearing the shirt that Yun Zhoujie gave him, with a low collar.

“The fans would have indiscriminately bombarded me with comments if this was seen.”

Chu Qianze pulled out a high-collared shirt from the closet. After he changed, he observed himself in the mirror and felt that it was fine. Only then did he return to the live broadcast page.

The live broadcast started, and the number of viewers started to soar.

“Hello everyone, I’m your anchor, Yangshengzhai. Today’s dinner is very simple. It’s a combination of a main dish, dessert, and drinks. I also made a fruit salad.”

[The anchor is wearing a high collar today, don’t you think it’s uncomfortable for your neck? But it looks good~]

“It’s fine to occasionally change your style.” Chu Qianze said.

[Anchor, anchor, do you want to participate in the offline event?]

[Are you going to meet us?! So exciting!!]

[Shouldn’t you pull up the camera before participating in the event for us to see what you look like? In this way, we won’t climb the wall2 and go to other anchors when the face-to-face activities happen.]

“I’ll participate in the offline activities. That’s right, I’m going to meet you guys, you’re welcome to come and play with me. I won’t show my face in the live broadcast.” Chu Qianze finished all the questions in one breath.

[Why do we have to choose between the morning or afternoon? Only children make choices! I want them all! Strongly requesting to add a third option!]

At this time, Jie entered the live broadcast room and was stunned when he saw the fast-moving barrage. He swiped a plane to suppress those barrages.

Jie: [What’s the matter?]

[Tyrant Jie! The anchor has agreed to participate in the offline event of the live broadcast! He let us choose which time to attend.]

Jie: [Oh, have you chosen?]

“Not yet, the results haven’t come out yet. The poll will end after the live broadcast, so everyone can pay attention to the live broadcast.”

Chu Qianze held his chin with one hand and said, “If you actually wanted me to participate in both times, this would’ve killed me. Who would make you food and broadcast with you, chat with you, and make you drool at the screen?”

[I originally wanted to just choose one. After listening to what you said, you should participate in both events. (sincere face)]

[According to our past experience, I feel that the anchor will not follow our voting results and then choose the one with fewer votes.]

[Upstairs is right; I also think that it’s possible!]

[Seriously, the cooking isn’t delicious, the voice isn’t good, the looks are ugly, the hands aren’t good-looking, and the skin isn’t so good…this is probably the gap between me and the anchor (dog head)]

[Holding my 40-meter machete that can let you fly 39 meters. Pfft, I almost injured an ally!]

“I think you’ve misunderstood me.” Chu Qianze’s tone was humble. “This vote will be based on the results of the poll. After all, it’s our first meeting, and I want to leave you an unforgettable memory and experience it with you. Thank you for your company for so many years.”

[Suddenly emotional, I can’t stand it.]

[Anchor I love you! Zhai Zhai3~]

“Don’t look at me being so naughty in front of the camera. In fact, in reality, I’m just a shy, introverted little otaku who dares not look up when I go out every day. I never talk unless necessary, and refuse to contact others…” Chu Qianze’s voice was somewhat low, and he seemed to be caught up in some kind of memory.

[Anchor, I am also a homebody, the kind that doesn’t go out every day. I really understand you well.]

[I doubt it.]

“For an ordinary guy like me, if I hadn’t started this live broadcast, maybe everyone wouldn’t look at me. It was because of the live broadcast that everyone noticed and understood me.”

[My tears fell. qwq anchor Yangshengzhai, I love you!]

“Look at this bowl of snail noodles.”

Chu Qianze said, lifting the lid in front of him, causing the hot air to rise.

“If you smell it, you stay away, but because of this, you lose the opportunity to taste its deliciousness. We always need to experience and try to discover the extraordinary.”

“It’s like no one knows about my ordinary life. Underneath, there is actually…”

[A sand sculpture?4]

Chu Qianze was brewing his emotions, and when he saw this barrage, he couldn’t help laughing.

Hearing his laughter, everyone reacted one after another. They were deceived! The fans left barrages, condemning the anchor’s behavior.

“Okay, okay. I was wrong.” Chu Qianze coughed lightly. “Today I’m eating snail noodles5. It really stinks and I feel that the one I made myself stinks much more than the one I bought.”

[Don’t change the subject. You pay for my tears, Anchor!]

[You stink!]

“To be honest, before the live broadcast, I deliberately closed the doors and windows, afraid that I would spread the smell for ten miles and then be reported by people going up and down the stairs.”

“Huh? ‘Why didn’t the neighbor report it?’ Because the neighboring room was always empty, it looks like no one lives there.”

Chu Qianze was talking when suddenly there was a voice, which seemed to be knocking on the door.

He was stunned for a moment, rushed to the live broadcast room to inform the viewers to wait for a while, then got up and walked towards the door.

Yun Zhoujie, who was watching, could hear some vague words through the live broadcast.

This is… someone knocking on the door?

After a while, Chu Qianze returned to the live broadcast room.

“Complaint? It’s not a complaint; my doors and windows are all closed. Didn’t I confirm it?”

Chu Qianze informed them of the matter when he saw the barrage being swiped happily. “Someone knocked on the door just now, saying that they’re going to be moving furniture in these two days, so it may be a little noisy. They negotiated with me about the time.”

“I may have a neighbor soon.” He concluded.

“Forget about it; now it’s time to eat.” Chu Qianze said, and started today’s eating and broadcasting.

 

At the end of the polling time, Chu Qianze glanced at the results, and most of them were in favor of the afternoon session.

“It’s afternoon.”

He wrote a reply directly to the staff, marked the time, and chose to submit it.

After that, he found that Jie had sent him a private message.

Jie: [Are you sure it’s the afternoon session?]

Yangshengzhai: [Well, everyone thinks it’s better. Anyway, the location is in City A, so you can sleep in and go.]

Jie: [We can also meet.]

Yangshengzhai: [Of course, let’s meet together face-to-face~]

At this time, a private message notification appeared, which was the official broadcasting account.

Customer service: [Is this Anchor Yangshengzhai?]

Yangshengzhai: [I am.]

Customer service: [According to the program of the event and also to give some fanservice, an anchor who participated for the first time should prepare a show and perform it at the event.]

Yangshengzhai: [?]

What can a food anchor do on stage: cook a fragrant snail noodle and then bring everyone to taste it?

Yangshengzhai: [Can I refuse?]

Customer service: [Yes, yes, but why don’t you think about it again? This is a rare opportunity. (poor)]

Yangshengzhai: [I won’t think about it.]

It’s very troublesome at first glance. Isn’t it good for him to just sit down and watch the show? Why does he have to work so hard to perform?

At that time, the script refreshed a new mission.

[New Mission: Perform on stage and receive audience applause.]

???

Chu Qianze: I suspect you’re messing with me. Are you avenging me for saying that you weren’t connected to the Internet earlier?

The script was silent, so he clicked his tongue.

The customer service is still there, convincing him softly.

Customer service: [Don’t be nervous, it’s mainly to increase your interaction with fans. You can sing, tell a story, or a poem, and jokes, even if you perform as a wooden man on stage, we will applaud!]

Yangshengzhai: [So that’s the case, my previous understanding was a bit different.]

Customer service: [Ah?]

Yangshengzhai: [I will prepare for the performance carefully, and inform you before the deadline.]

Customer service: [Okay! You have worked hard~]

Yangshengzhai: [You’ve worked hard too.]
