This is the entertainment industry! No tantrums or shouting allowed!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Gu Yan knelt on the ground, his hands tightly locked by Wen Yao!

A standard fighting stance, without any fancy moves, a single strike to defeat the enemy!

Even Wen Yao herself was stunned.

It seems like she... hasn't learned this move before?

It was entirely out of instinct from her body's muscles, as if someone had supervised her practice a thousand times.

"Ouch, that hurts!" Gu Yan grimaced. "Wen Shi Yao Yao, I'm your own brother! Did you have to be so cruel?"

They're practically treating him like a bastard!

Wen Yao snapped out of her daze and said coldly, "You're not my brother, you're a liar, a big liar!"

Gu Yan: ? ? ?

"When did I ever lie to you!"

"You stood me up!" Wen Yao became agitated at the mention of this. "Gu Yan, I trusted you so much, how could you lie to me..."

Realizing her loss of composure, Wen Yao shook off Gu Yan and, with a straight face, quickly used the coupons she had snatched to buy things.

"District 4, first place, Wen Yao!"

"time up!"

"Game over! The winner is—Yao Mei! Congratulations, Yao Mei!"

The audience erupted in applause.

The live stream was filled with people sending firecracker emojis.

Wen Yao, however, showed no excitement at winning the competition. She politely nodded to the staff and accepted the trophy.

【Oh dear, why does my little sister seem a bit unhappy?】

Indeed... my 18-year-old sister doesn't seem happy at all.

After watching for a while, I feel the root of the problem lies with Yanzi. Meibao interacts normally with other people, but as soon as she encounters Yanzi, she starts acting emo!

[I know how to do this! Send the inkstone to Ningguta, and I'll solve it in a flash!]

...

Gu Yan rested one hand on his knee, staring blankly at Wen Yao, who was surrounded by the crowd.

As far as I can remember, his relationship with Wen Yao deteriorated to an extremely bad state a year ago...

He had always thought Wen Yao was just a child with a big temper, but what she just said... made all his questions answered.

Something must have happened.

That's why her relationship with him completely deteriorated.

Then came the turning point—her agent invited her to join him on this live variety show.

Once Gu Yan understood this, he propped himself up and wanted to catch up with Wen Yao to explain things clearly.

Fu Wanzhou, however, walked up to Wen Yao before him:

"Now it's time to fulfill our promise."

Wen Yao's eyes lit up: "Okay."

Gu Yan: "Where are you going?"

Everyone was completely baffled.

Only Wen Yao solemnly unfolded the poster featuring Fu Qianchuan:

"He said he would take me to meet this handsome guy."

Gu Yan: !!!

Everyone:! ! !

"Why do you all have that look on your faces?" Wen Yao glanced around, sensing something was off. "Shouldn't I have gone?"

"Ahem, Yao-mei, don't overthink it, we're just a little surprised." Yun Yue cleared her throat.

Yunxing couldn't hold back any longer: "Yao-mei, you really don't remember at all? This is your ex-boyfriend!"

Eh?

Wen Yao was stunned.

She picked up the poster and examined it closely, but she really couldn't recognize the face...

If there's anything special about it, it's that she has a natural affinity and trust in this face.

Does she really like this ex-boyfriend?

Or is it that she just likes this type of man?

Wen Yao fell into deep thought.

Jiang Jinghuai smiled slightly and put his arm around Fu Wanzhou's shoulder:

"Dude, let's talk."

Once they reached a secluded corner, Jiang Jinghuai stopped acting and punched Fu Wanzhou in the face!

"Are you fucking crazy? We've all been competing on the same track for so long. My sister's memory loss means a major reshuffle. We're all back to the same starting line, and you're just helping your uncle get to the finish line? What kind of operation is that?!"

"What? Can't wait to make your sister your aunt?"
