In the area.
Several guests were praising Zhou Jingming for his cooking skills.
Left out, Liu Qiang stood to the side like an outsider, unable to help with anything.
She could even mix old and tender vegetables together and couldn’t recognize all the types of green vegetables.
Standing by Zhou Jingming’s side, she would just add to the chaos.
In the end, Zhou Jingming asked her to stand outside, and she felt wronged to the point of tears.
[Damn, I really want to strangle Liu Biao.]
[It’s affecting my enjoyment of watching Dancing King Zhou cook. Liu Biao, step back…]
Liu Qiang’s manager was pinching his phone, his expression fierce, wishing he could rush in and wake up his artist.
Bored, Shen Yan sat to the side and finally walked over, “Is there anything I can help with?”
Zhou Jingming looked up from the long table and met Shen Yan’s gaze, smiling, “You are the Ying family, just sit and wait to eat! Do you like braised lion head meatballs?”
“Not particularly, I just remember there’s such a dish,” Shen Yan put her hand on the barrier and said earnestly, “I’ve never had it, so I wanted to try it.”
She thought the name sounded quite imposing!
A nice sounding name must mean it’s delicious too.
[Wow! Why do I feel that Dancing King Zhou is so gentle towards Yanyan.]
[What should I do, I want to ship this couple!]
Zhou Jingming was startled when he heard Shen Yan’s words and couldn’t quite tell if she was being sincere.
“Once the show is over, I’ll learn it myself, and then you’ll have to honor me by trying it!”
“Uh… I was just saying. Don’t take it seriously,” Shen Yan didn’t expect Zhou Jingming to actually want to learn the dish just for her, and she gave an awkward smile.
She really wasn’t a foodie.
But Zhou Jingming just laughed, “I’ve recently become obsessed with making all kinds of delicious foods. It’s not just for you.”
His words carried a hint of cover-up.
Smartly, Shen Yan didn’t continue the conversation but just smiled and said, “Is that so?”
“I heard something! You guys are actually thinking of cooking privately!” Song Xuan said teasingly, “It seems that Dancing King Zhou and Shen Yan are so familiar that they can cook for each other privately!”
With Song Xuan’s words, everyone seemed to catch the scent of a story between them.
Zhou Jingming did not explain but just smiled and continued with his work.
Shen Yan gave Song Xuan a look.
There wasn’t a trace of intentionality in Song Xuan’s eyes; it seemed like a casual tease to stir up the atmosphere.
Xu Zishen frowned slightly, discreetly scrutinizing Zhou Jingming.
Was Zhou Jingming’s attitude towards Shen Yan too friendly?
Outside, Liu Su watched the scene and took a deep breath.
Reminding himself.
Miss Shen was just recording a dating reality show, not flirting with a man.
“Are you Shen Yan’s manager?” behind him, a man in his thirties, smiling, handed over his business card, “I am Xu Zishen’s manager, Li Kunzhe!”
“I’m Liu Su,” Liu Su took Li Kunzhe’s business card and put it into his coat pocket, “What can I do for you?”
“It’s like this, Zishen really admires Miss Shen, and our company is also interested in having the two create some buzz, mutually benefiting each other…”
Before Li Kunzhe could finish, Liu Su understood his intention, “You want my artist to create a scandal with your artist to mutually boost popularity?”
Li Kunzhe did not deny it, “Zishen has a larger presence than Miss Shen, it would be a great opportunity for her. Once the popularity reaches a certain level, both sides can clarify, and no one loses.”
On the contrary, Shen Yan gains from it.
Liu Su was not foolish.
Although this was his first time as a manager, he had some understanding of the stars in the entertainment industry, big and small.
Xu Zishen’s popularity was high, but Miss Shen’s popularity wasn’t low either, and there was still a lot of room to rise.
For Xu Zishen to climb another step wouldn’t be so easy.
The other party wanted to ride on Miss Shen’s popularity.
Such righteous sounding words, yet such audacity.
“My artist is still young, this path is not suitable for her, the company replaced the former manager precisely to avoid these crooked approaches,” Liu Su spoke quite bluntly, unafraid of offending anyone.
“Refuse any paired-up CP!”
Li Kunzhe’s face turned dark in an instant.
Liu Su even said he was unorthodox!
“Shen Yan has many haters; it won’t be easy to turn a disliked celebrity around. Missing this opportunity would be Shen Yan’s loss,” Li Kunzhe, somewhat infuriated and embarrassed, tossed out these words and walked to the other side.
Liu Su was dismissive of this.
It was just a mere entertainment industry; even if Miss Shen was useless, he could still lift her to the clouds with his financial power!
One hour later.
Liu Su, looking at the guests sitting around a large dining table, took a photo of Shen Yan alone and sent it out.
“Sir, Miss Shen appeared on the reality show. Also, I found out she likes braised lion’s head meatballs.”
Overseas, in a business negotiation, Qi Si glanced at the photo against a pink wall background and slightly raised his handsome brows.
The counterpart, sweating and feeling parched, stuttered upon seeing Qi Si’s subtle expression.
Was that a sign of dissatisfaction?
The sweat on the counterpart’s brow flowed even faster.
Qi Si glanced at the message sent by Liu Su and subtly furrowed his brows.
Was Liu Su too idle? Reporting such trivial matters to him.
With his slender hand covering the phone on the table, his icy eyes glanced at the counterpart, and he spoke indifferently, “Continue.”
Having eaten their fill, everyone gathered around the living room sofa to chat and digest.
Tao Rongye and Song Xuan, true to their skilled acting talents, naturally led the younger crew, playing according to the director’s script.
That meant sharing stories of first loves or secret crushes.
Everyone was an adult and had walked a long path; certainly, there had been a pure “moonlight” or a deep “cinnabar mole.”
This topic indeed excited the audience!
Tao Rongye and Song Xuan both shared a real yet ordinary secret love history, then exchanged smiles. In that moment, a faint pink aura naturally radiated between them.
To salvage her earlier image, Liu Qiang tenderly recounted a first love story.
It was a brief college romance, sprinkling her stellar academic achievements throughout her tale and seemingly boasting.
Then the others talked about either secret crushes or open romances, nothing novel.
Xu Zishen painstakingly crafted a deep tale of first love, speaking of how his significant other had gone abroad for education, and how he had followed them to the airport but ultimately missed their farewell.
After finishing, he did not forget to impersonate a dejected expression.
The audience’s hearts went out to him.

Sitting near Shen Yan, as soon as she heard this, she felt it was phony.
Her story was different.
She directly faced the camera and declared, “I’ve had neither a first love nor a secret crush.”
Instantly, all the guests turned to look at her.
Dai Molin exaggeratedly said, “No way, Shen Yan, you’re so beautiful. How can no one have pursued you? You’re surely lying, or perhaps you didn’t fancy any of those men who chased you?”
Liu Qiang sneered inwardly, twisting her body as she said seemingly casually, “That’s not right, Shen Yan, I remember during the survival show, you were confessing your feelings to Mu Jincheng! That counts as a crush, doesn’t it?”
Shen Yan glanced at her lightly and responded coolly, “Mu Jincheng isn’t my type, and I don’t remember chasing after him to confess. Perhaps Teacher Liu is mistaken? The internet still has memories; shall we check?”
Liu Qiang gave a forced smile, “Maybe I remembered wrong…”
Xu Zishen and Zhou Jingming simultaneously furrowed their brows; Liu Qiang was bringing up an uncomfortable topic.
Zhou Jingming slowly spoke from behind, “Shen Yan just saw Mu Jincheng as an idol, which shouldn’t count as a crush.”
This comment drew Shen Yan’s sideways glance.
Wasn’t Zhou Jingming obviously defending Shen Yan?
Recalling their interaction while cooking earlier, the atmosphere suddenly became a bit subtle.
Liu Su, closely monitoring the live broadcast, his forehead twitched.
Anyone with eyes could feel Zhou Jingming’s special treatment towards Shen Yan.
Yet, Shen Yan herself remained unaware of this peculiarity, giving Zhou Jingming a thankful smile.
Seeing that smile Shen Yan directed at Zhou Jingming, Xu Zishen’s face darkened; why was he so displeased?
