Chapter 72 Rival in Love? A Living Celebrity?! Something's Happened?

This is a selfie.

In the photo, the background is dim, as if at home. The man is sitting on the sofa, wearing a gray silk loungewear. A cat's head is lying on his chest, and his slender, jade-like fingertips are touching the cat's forehead.

What's most striking is the man's face: short, smooth black hair, mixed-race features, and a pair of bright, phoenix-shaped eyes with upturned corners and a small red mole at the corner of his right eye.

Her skin is fair and cool-toned; even under such close-up pixel exposure, you can't see a single acne scar!
Those eyes lifted, gazing quietly at the camera, as if looking deeply into Nan Shu's eyes through the screen.

Nan Shu raised her hand and patted her flushed cheeks.

Late at night, she had to admit that she was attracted to him.

but……

Nan Shu turned her head to look at the life-sized cardboard cutout she had casually placed on her bedside table. It was a free gift with her potato chips purchase; it was palm-sized and had fine glitter and rhinestones. It looked quite nice under the light, so she hadn't thrown it away.

The signboard has a flamboyant signature: Wei Yue.

It must be some celebrity. Nan Shu doesn't follow entertainment news much and doesn't know much about him.

But can someone tell her why the person in the photo looks exactly like a life-size cardboard cutout?!

If Nan Shu hadn't recognized the fish balls, she would have suspected that my love for fish was just a random picture of a celebrity I found online to fool her.

Nan Shu took a deep breath and tapped the screen.

Nan Shu: [Wei Yue?]

There was no reply from the other side.

The next second, a video request popped up.

Nan Shu paused for a moment, thought about it, and then pressed the call button.

As the screen zoomed in, the beauty filters in the photo delivered another stunning visual blow to Nan Shu.

"Xiao Nan..."

Seeing that Nan Shu didn't speak, Wei Yue nervously plucked a few hairs from the fish egg.

Fish balls: ?
This is the best video angle he could find, with perfect lighting, atmosphere, and profile... Xiao Nan shouldn't think he's not good-looking, right?
"Wei Yue?"

The girl's slightly surprised voice rang out. She was wearing a pink bear-patterned nightgown, her soft hair draped over her shoulders. She looked slightly different from how she appeared during the live stream, and seemed more approachable... Wei Yue thought he liked this closeness.

"Well, it's me."

Wei Yue smiled brightly; he also liked the feeling of Xiao Nan calling his name.

"Is it really you?" Nan Shu straightened up. She actually saw a live celebrity?!
"Ah."

Wei Yue responded patiently.

"Is it really not AI?" Nan Shu was still not quite convinced.

Wei Yue chuckled, picked up Yudan and brought it in front of the camera, gently patting its bottom. Yudan meowed in dissatisfaction.

"what?!"

Fishball's familiar little boy voice rang out.

It's confirmed, it really is fish balls. No beauty filters, no editing, the fish balls are still plump. Brother Fish Eater really is Wei Yue.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Nan Shu remained silent again, Wei Yue asked anxiously.

"No, I'm just a little surprised." But then she thought about it, and realized that Nan's brother was a movie star, so Wei Yue's identity didn't seem so shocking after all.

Thinking of this, Nan Shu remembered something.

"Brother Fish Eater, is your friend Nan Sinian?"

Although Wei Yue didn't like other people appearing in their conversation, when Nan Shu asked, he still answered truthfully, "Yes, it's Brother Si Nian."

What a small world!

Having received an affirmative answer, Nan Shu couldn't help but think.

"what happened?"

Wei Yue asked.

"Didn't I tell Brother Eating Fish that I found a job? I'm a special consultant for the Criminal Investigation Division. Our captain is Nan Sinian's younger brother."

"That's quite a coincidence. I didn't expect Xiao Nan to be so amazing."

Wei Yue said with a smile.

Why did you suddenly praise her? Nan Shu scratched her head.

"Xiao Nan, may I... know your name?" Wei Yue asked cautiously.

"Of course, Nan Shu, Brother Fish Eater, my name is Nan Shu."

In the shot, the man raises his eyes, his eyelashes drooping slightly, revealing an indescribable sense of humility.

For some reason, this reminded Nan Shu of the big dog at Captain Li's house in her past life. Whenever it wanted a snack, it would look at her with those pitiful eyes. Nan, Shu?

Shushu.

Wei Yue chewed on the two words between his lips and teeth, "A very nice name."

"Xiao Shu, when I come to Hangzhou, can I treat you to a meal? Would that be too much trouble for you?"

Here we go again, with those pitiful eyes.

"How could that be? When are you coming to Hangzhou, Brother Fish? I'll treat you to a meal, a real feast!"

Nan Shu, who has 800,000 yuan in savings, spoke with great confidence.

Wei Yue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll fly to Hangzhou next Tuesday night."

"Okay, see you then."

"it is good."

The two chatted for a while longer, and Wei Yue noticed Nan Shu's fatigue, so he hung up the phone.

"Was it your idea for the production team to suddenly change the filming location to Hangzhou this time?"

A lazy voice rang out.

Wei Yue's smile vanished instantly. He slowly and methodically buttoned up the button that had 'accidentally' come off and looked toward the source of the sound.

Nan Sinian, dressed in black pajamas, leaned against the island counter with his arms crossed, a glass of lemonade beside him, and it was unclear how long he had been listening there.

"Why is Brother Si Nian still up so late?"

When Nan Sinian isn't working, he usually goes to bed at 10 p.m., but now it's almost midnight.

Wei Yue stroked the fish egg's fur gently, without answering the question he had just asked.

This brat!

Nance smiled, his peach blossom eyes narrowing. Was he treating him as a rival in love?

"I'm not interested in your little female anchor; she's not my type."

"Oh."

Wei Yue paused, tilting his head. "S baby?"

Nan Sinian: ...

Who said this kid is innocent and naive?
He's clearly a heartless sesame dumpling, yet the Wei family is worried he'll be bullied in the entertainment industry. Nan Sinian thinks the Wei family head is overthinking it.

"I just……"

Nan Sinian pinched the bridge of his nose. Usually eloquent, he suddenly found himself at a loss for words. Just what? Pleasant to look at? Pitiful? Thankful?

None of these seem quite right, and he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Humph╭(╯^╰)╮"

Wei Yue stood up, carrying the fish balls, and brushed past Nan Sinian.

Goodnight, baby S.

Nan Sinian: ...

……

The next day.

The phone rang urgently. Nan Shu raised her hand to answer it, and when she saw Nan Punian's name flashing on the screen, she frowned. She had a very bad feeling.

Sure enough, I pressed the answer button.

"Xiao Shu, something's happened."

Nan Shu's heart sank.

"I'll be there soon."

If the homeowner is in a hurry, the property management can help with transportation, but even so, it was already half an hour later when Nan Shu arrived at the branch office.

Nan Shu thought she should put getting her driver's license on her agenda.

Yes, the original owner still doesn't have a driver's license.

Such emergencies will only increase in the future, so having a car will definitely be more convenient.

Open the door to the conference room.

Besides Nan Punian, Xu Yunli, Li Feng, and other members of the Qingshan District branch, there were several comrades that Nan Shu did not recognize sitting opposite Nan Punian.

"Xiao Shu, these are the comrades from the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Wancheng District. This is Guan Min, Captain Guan."
