After walking for a while, Yang Xue and Fu Qingyang sat down on a bench by the lake.

The sunlight slanted across the lake, making it shimmer and sparkle.

The two of them stared ahead, and the atmosphere became somewhat quiet for a moment.

That's how it is when introverts get together; they all expect the other to initiate the conversation.

Yang Xue had a cold, pretty face, like an ice queen, but she had a lot of inner monologues.

"Although you are the CEO, I am still a noble transmigrator. It would be too beneath me to speak first."

"I won't move until the enemy moves."

Fu Qingyang, on the other hand, lost his domineering demeanor at the conference table.

For President Fu, the first sentence he speaks to Yang Xue is always the hardest.

As their relationship deepened, he became increasingly conflicted about how to address each other.

Calling her "Miss Yang" was appropriate at first, since we weren't familiar with each other.

But now that she has changed her nickname to "Dumb Beast" and occasionally calls herself "Dumb," it's no longer appropriate for me to call her "Miss Yang."

Of course, he considered calling her "Xiaoxue," but he was worried that she wouldn't be happy with the name.

So President Fu was constantly conflicted and conflicted.

After a full three minutes of silence, Fu Qingyang finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"What...do you want with me?"

Yang Xue's lips curled slightly upwards, then she suddenly turned her head, her little face stern, and asked:

"When I searched for my own songs online, I found that the top content sections were all covers by internet celebrities."

"It took a lot of effort to find the video of my own competition."

At this point, Yang Xue raised her hand and made a meme of Wang Jingze pointing at someone.

"Tell me the truth, did you tamper with this place?"

Yang Xue thought that Fu Qingyang would be taken aback or deny it outright.

However, the other party responded with a very cold and indifferent "yes".

"Yes."

Yang Xue nodded knowingly upon receiving the answer, not annoyed, but more curious.

As the only person who can truly understand the other person, Xiao Fu would never harm himself.

But what was his purpose in doing this?

Fu Qingyang quickly offered his explanation.

"Before you have a solid foundation, I want to hide you away first."

"Hide it? Why?"

Yang Xue didn't quite understand the character "藏" (cáng).

"Today's entertainment industry is more like a giant gambling table."

"If you're a newbie and win big at the table, all the losers will team up to go all in on you."

"In their eyes, whether you are lucky or strong, your existence is a threat."

Aside from important meetings and strategic planning, Fu Qingyang would never say so much.

But since the other party was Yang Xue, he needed to explain things in more detail.

Yang Xue was very clever and quickly figured out the advantages and disadvantages involved.

She nodded slowly, then continued to ask:

"What if I learn from them and operate slowly and steadily?"

Fu Qingyang had already prepared his answer in his mind and continued:

"From the moment you sat down there, you were an outsider."

"Those poker table big shots won't reject you immediately."

"Instead, they will observe you slowly, fatten you up, and then devour you all at once when you are ready."

"And you, in the future, only have two choices."

"Become a part of them, gamble for them. Or become their fuel and get eliminated directly."

After listening, Yang Xue nodded solemnly.

"Looks like I made the right decision to look for Slowpoke this time."

"Just as I predicted, the entertainment industry is really too complicated."

"But I still underestimated its depth."

Yang Xue felt a chill run down her spine whenever she recalled Feng Xin's ordeal.

After several teaching interactions, she discovered that Feng Xin was not a fool at all.

Her musical talent and understanding even far surpassed Gao Linlin's.

If Yang Xue hadn't possessed such overpowered system abilities and foresight, she would have undoubtedly suffered a devastating defeat that day.

Even with her exceptional talent, Feng Xin, at the peak of her career, still lost to capital.

Now, after Fu Qingyang's prompting, Yang Xue thought of that woman who was chasing her dreams again, and began to have doubts.

Will she be able to do it this time?

Yang Xue's thoughts returned to reality. She looked at Fu Qingyang seriously and asked:

"So, if I want to achieve your current status in the entertainment industry, what do I need to do?"

Upon hearing Yang Xue's words, Fu Qingyang was momentarily dazed.

He thought of his mother again; she had once dreamed of becoming a star, but unfortunately, she gave it to the wrong system.

Fu Qingyang noticed that Yang Xue's expression had also become serious and earnest.

"Nurture chess pieces, hide cards, and develop secretly."

He presented three solutions and added supplementary information.

"If you possess two of these three qualities, you are qualified to sit at the poker table; if you possess the third, you are at least halfway to success."

Yang Xue couldn't help but smile.

By Fu Qingyang's standards, his current strategy and operations are already resembling those of a skilled poker player.

But unlike Fu Qingyang, she was not cultivating "chess pieces," but "partners."

“I roughly understand how to cultivate chess pieces, but tell me more about hiding cards and developing secretly.”

Fu Qingyang looked calmly at the tranquil riverbank, his pupils becoming deep.

After a brief moment of thought, he said in a deep voice:

"Unlike card tables, which have fixed rules, the game between people's hearts has no rules."

"You can hide a card that your opponent doesn't know about to use as a way to bounce back, or you can hide a backstab card in your opponent's deck to use as a backstab."

"Never reveal a hidden card if you never need it."

Yang Xue laughed immediately after hearing this, and said in a very teasing tone:

"It seems that President Fu has hidden quite a bit inside."

"I guess you've already deeply corrupted your opponent's deck...?"

Fu Qingyang felt that Yang Xue was praising him, and he suddenly chuckled and said:

"It's not about the quantity of cards you collect, but the quality."

"If you hide too much, your opponents will be wary of you and may even retaliate against you if they discover it."

"Holy crap, this is way too deep."

"Xiao Fu, how on earth do you manage to hide such a black heart with such a righteous face?"

"Could you have been Tobirama Senju in your past life...?"

Yang Xue sighed inwardly, then raised her hands in a fist salute to express her sincere admiration.

"My daughter is completely convinced!"

"To be honest, President Fu is practically Sima Yi reincarnated."

"Who can beat you!"

Fu Qingyang seemed dissatisfied with this assessment. With a cold, handsome face, he earnestly defended himself:

Even if we compare, I am still Zhuge Liang!

"Even if I'm a little bit cunning, I'm still Jia Xu."

Yang Xue pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself:

"Hmph, you really have no self-awareness at all."

Immediately afterwards, Yang Xue continued to ask:

"Then what about developing in secret?"

"What are your thoughts on my future development, Mr. Fu?"

Fu Qingyang stood up with his hands in his pockets, giving off a cool, aloof, god-like vibe.

"Meeting Liao Qingsong that day and discussing public welfare projects with him was a very correct choice."

"Mr. Liao has the backing of the country and is of impeccable national character, and his status in the music industry is endorsed by the state."

"Therefore, communicating with him and developing connections through him is a very wise move!"

Yang Xue was speechless for a moment and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself:

"I knew you had people watching me!"

Yang Xue did not feel pressured by Fu Qingyang's attention.

At least his intentions were good, especially given the recent Gu Dayong incident.

He says he won't retaliate, but what if he changes his mind?

Anyway, as long as you show resistance, Slowpoke will cower and restrain itself.

As Yang Xue was slowly digesting these suggestions, Fu Qingyang suddenly changed the subject.

"As for Liao Chen'an, it's best to stay away from him."
