Li Jianyu came out looking for Shi Sui only to bump into a Bai Ruoruo who was crying and running away. Confused, he asked: “What happened, Daddy Shi? Why did you make the little girl cry?”
Shi Sui lowered his head and found his cigarette pack. He knocked out a cigarette and said in a lazy tone, “I don’t know.”
“…” Li Jianyu felt the corners of his mouth twitch. “Bad mood? You are being way too cruel aren’t you…”
Shi Sui’s cigarette addiction was well known to the industry. Apparently, it was because of a habit left from filming “Rainy Night”. The tone of the movie was gloomy and wet, and it was filmed during the humid rainy season. The character he played smoked throughout the entire film.
Afterwards, it became too difficult to quit, plus Shi Sui didn’t seem to have any plans to quit smoking either.
Shi Sui stuck the cigarette in his mouth, his eyes narrowing. “Something wrong?”
Li Jianyu was usually aloof, but when it came to discussing work, he was serious. “I have analyzed the live broadcast data over the last few days, and our momentum is really good. It seems Xiang Yi’s cooking is very popular, and during mealtimes, we get lots of views and new fans from the foodies searching for a mukbang. I also have some ideas I wanted to discuss with you…”
The two talked for about ten minutes. Shi Sui didn’t have much to say, but the advice he did give was sharp and straight to the point. Li Jianyu felt like he had suddenly been enlightened and was ready to go back to talk with the rest of the crew.
Only, he couldn’t help but fuel the gossip before he left. “Daddy Shi, do you feel that mentor Xiang Yi treats Smog… Uhm you know, a bit special!”
Shi Sui looked at him with shifty eyes. “Are you out of work to do?”
“I’m being serious, does mentor Xiang Yi like this type of little brother? She took good care of Yan Nai as well.” Li Jianyu scratched his head. “To be honest, it would be a good thing if she were to be in a relationship with a gege. I can be counted as half a matchmaker, but I think the netizens right now seem to be resistant to her behavior, saying she’s trying too hard to please Smog…”
Shi Sui spat out a smoke ring. “You’re overthinking. When you invited the guests, do you not bother to check their last names?”
“Smog was arranged to come here by Xing Chen streaming platform, so I didn’t notice his real name…”
Li Jianyu pulled out his phone to do a quick search as he spoke. His eyes widened instantly. “Xiang Yu? Xiang Yi? These two… are relatives? Wait no, why does Smog have such a bad attitude toward Xiang Yi then…”
“Figure it out yourself.”
“Hey, hey, daddy Shi, don’t leave. F*ck, so what if your legs are long!”

In the bedroom.
With Xiao Naofu there to dispense cuteness and act coquettishly, Xiang Yi’s depressed mood did not last long.
She took a siesta and saw Xiao Naofu sleeping on the pillow next to her when she woke up. The little buddy’s feet were up in the air, and its tail curled around her wrist as it snored away.
Xiang Yi felt her heart turn into mush. For a system, it should have received a better place to go, yet it chose this world, mostly because of her.
“Tonight, I’ll cook you something yummy,” she whispered. She squeezed its chubby paws and said, “From now on, I’ll make you yummy food everyday.”
Different from the peaceful atmosphere where Xiang Yi was, Xiang Yu felt as if he were sitting on pins and needles as he paced back and forth outside of Xiang Yi’s room.
In the last year, his sister’s behavior had been so abnormal that even amnesia wasn’t an excuse to explain it.
Xiang Yu soon had a vague guess—his sister’s body had been occupied by someone else.
But he couldn’t be sure, so he could only feign indifference.
Until today, Xiang Yu was finally able to confirm that his sister had returned!
But now she’s angry…
Xiang Yu squatted outside her door, head and ears drooping like an abandoned puppy.
‘Will my sister really ignore me forever…’
