She became a heartthrob among internet celebrities.

Jiang Lai smiled and extended her hand to shake the man's hand. "Hello, Mr. Fu, I'm Jiang Lai."

The two shook hands politely for a moment, then quickly let go.

Just as Jiang Lai was about to speak, the back window rolled down, and Ye Kongxing's entire head popped out, waving cheerfully: "Little Jiang!"

"Brother Ye!" Jiang Lai exclaimed in surprise, "I was just about to ask why I hadn't seen you."

Ye Kongxing: "I've been standing here for ages, so I'm getting on the bus now. I was worried you wouldn't be able to find us, so I had Lao Fu get off and wait for you. Little Jiang, get on the bus quickly! I'll take you to get something good to eat!"

Jiang Lai nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay!"

Fu Changyuan watched as the girl's eyes curved into crescent moons with joy, and he couldn't help but be infected by her emotions, which made him feel much more relaxed.

Fu Changyuan said, "Get in the car!"

"Mmm!" Jiang Lai reached out to open the back door, but unexpectedly couldn't open it right away.

She tried harder again, but still couldn't open it. "?"

Jiang Lai blinked in confusion, then saw Ye Kongxing.

"Brother Ye, can you open the door for me?"

Fu Changyuan held out his hand: "Let me do it!"

"Hey!" Ye Kongxing exclaimed, "Didn't I already say I've been standing for ages? My legs hurt! I want to lie down in the back by myself. Little Jiang, you can sit in the passenger seat! Otherwise, we can all sit in the back. Aren't we treating Lao Fu like a driver? We're both working for Lao Fu! We can't let the boss drive us!"

Fu Changyuan: "..."

Jiang Lai hesitated, then looked at Fu Changyuan, "President Fu—"

Fu Changyuan said first, "Then sit in the front!" He then opened the passenger door for her, holding it open with one hand to prevent her from hitting her head.

"Alright!" Jiang Lai didn't dwell on it too much. "Thank you, Mr. Fu."

Fu Changyuan closed the door for her, then glanced at Ye Kongxing, who was still making a big face through the back window.

Seeing the look in Fu Changyuan's eyes, Ye Kongxing gave a smug thumbs-up.

Fu Changyuan ignored him, walked to the other side and got into the car. He wasn't going to lower himself to Ye Kongxing's level.

The car drove steadily on the road, and inside, only Ye Kongxing and Jiang Lai were talking non-stop.

"If it weren't for you, Little Jiang, Lao Fu and I wouldn't have come to this presentation in person!" Ye Kongxing was lying back in the back seat, looking quite lazy. "I'm exhausted!"

Jiang Lai said helplessly, "Brother Ye, you've only been standing on stage for a maximum of 20 minutes. If you're already complaining of being tired, then you really need to take some nourishment! How can you be weaker than a young girl like me?"

Ye Kongxing: "..."

Fu Changyuan chuckled softly.

Ye Kongxing was so angry his teeth ached. Who was he doing this for?

"Yes, I'll make sure to have some good nourishment later. The private chef we're going to later has a really good chicken soup, I'll order that later!" Ye Kongxing said through gritted teeth, "I'm going to rest for a bit, Lao Fu, you keep my little sister Jiang company for a chat!"

After saying that, he really didn't say another word.

Jiang Lai turned to look at him and saw that he had his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep immediately.

Not knowing what to say for a moment, Jiang Lai turned her head away.

Without Ye Kongxing's voice, the car suddenly became too quiet.

Fu Changyuan turned his head slightly to look at her and asked, "Should we play some music?"

"Ah? Okay!" Jiang Lai sat up straight, with her back straight, legs together, and hands obediently placed on her knees.

"No need to sit so formally," Fu Changyuan said with a hint of a smile. "What, am I that scary?"

Ye Kongxing thought to himself from the back seat, "He always has that deadpan expression, it would be strange if he wasn't scary!"

Jiang Lai immediately denied it, saying, "Of course not! I'm just a little surprised. After all, this is the first time I've met President Fu, so it's always good to be serious, right?"

“No need for that, I actually—” Fu Changyuan wanted to say, “I actually know you very well,” but he didn’t say it. Instead, he said, “I’m actually very easy to talk to.”

Jiang Lai instinctively felt that this wasn't what he originally meant, but she didn't press him for details. "Okay."

"Just select what you want to hear on the screen!"

Jiang Lai reached out her hand: "Anything is fine, just put it back in whatever you were originally putting there!"

As she pressed the play button, Jiang Lai instantly heard her own voice coming from the car stereo.

"—He will marvel at you, remember you, paint you, and forever depict your youthful song, but he will not pursue you, will not climb the ladder to you, will not fight for you, will not sing serenades under your balcony, no, unfortunately, he will not fall in love with you—"

Help!!!!

Jiang Lai immediately pressed pause; her embarrassment was deafening, and her toes seemed to dig right through the car's chassis.

This is a passage from a famous book that she read aloud to her fans, meant to lull them to sleep.

Fu Changyuan remained calm, saying, "Your voice makes me feel relaxed, so I will listen to you read those classic works."

Jiang Lai tried to ease her embarrassment, "Really? Does President Fu still suffer from insomnia these days?"

"No, I've been sleeping very well ever since I heard your voice."

Ye Kongxing silently gave Fu Changyuan a thumbs up from the back seat. "Not bad, Lao Fu!!!"

Jiang Lai turned her head to look at Fu Changyuan, and remained silent for a moment.

Fu Changyuan knew she was staring at him and felt inexplicably nervous. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing much, I just wanted to say thank you to President Fu! My life wasn't easy at first. If it weren't for Douyin, President Ye, and President Fu's help, I don't think I would be doing so well now."

Fu Changyuan disagreed with her words, saying, "I don't think I've helped you at all. On the contrary, your current achievements are all due to your own hard work."

Jiang Lai: "But President Fu is my benefactor! He's also my boss, so I'm not wrong to say these things."

Fu Changyuan paused for a moment, then said, "There's no need to be so serious."

Ye Kongxing sat up: "That's right, little Jiang, it's not work time now, don't be so serious. Don't call him President Fu, just call him Lao Fu or Brother Fu."

“This—” Jiang Lai hesitated.

Fu Changyuan said, "Let's listen to him!"

Jiang Lai: "Then, Brother Fu?"

Fu Changyuan: "Mm."

"That's right! There's no need to call him President Fu. Speaking of which, Little Jiang, you don't know! Old Fu used to suffer from insomnia night after night. If it weren't for your voice curing him, he would be dead now. If you really think about it, you are Old Fu's benefactor!"

Jiang Lai: "Hmm? Common ailments of domineering CEOs? Insomnia, allergies to women, stomach problems, obsessive-compulsive disorder?"

"Hahaha, little Jiang, you're so funny! You were right! Old Fu, he's never had a woman by his side, his meals are always irregular, and he's a germaphobe. You really know him!"

Fu Changyuan issued a warning: "Ye Kongxing!"

"Okay, okay, I'll shut up and continue resting. You can chat with Little Jiang!" Ye Kongxing felt he had completed his task, so he lay down peacefully again.
