During this period, Ji Yan's popularity has not decreased at all. Qin Xue has repeatedly reminded Ji Yan to update his Weibo more often, and many fans are waiting for his Weibo every day.

Ji Yan also finally updated with a new selfie, which garnered over 10,000 views within minutes of being posted.

The comments below were full of praise. A while ago, the company said that Ji Yan's fans were about to break 40 million, so they suggested that they hold a fan meeting for Ji Yan in the future.

It just so happened that Ji Yan was off work that day, so Ning Yi called him via video, and Xu Zhizheng brought Ji Yan's lunch over.

"It's only lunchtime now? Let me see what we should have today," Ning Yi said on the other end of the video call.

Ji Yan took the lunchbox, opened it, took out his phone, zoomed in on the camera, showed it to Ning Yi, and said, "I've been preparing for a fashion show, so I've been managing my figure lately."

Ning Yi saw a box of weight-loss meals and looked completely unappetizing. She swallowed hard and said, "They don't even look appetizing. Do you eat this every day?"

Ji Yan chuckled, then picked up a piece with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth, replying, "It's okay, I'm full."

Ning Yi pursed her lips, thinking, "No one would believe that such a small amount is enough to fill you up."

"You must take care of yourself. You've been so busy lately, don't overwork yourself," Ning Yi said with concern.

Ji Yan smiled slightly and replied, "Okay, I understand."

"After this fashion show is over, I'll start preparing for the advertising shoot."

Ning Yi asked in surprise, "You're doing advertising?"

Ji Yan nodded: "I recently landed a new endorsement deal; iResearch contacted me."

I've seen the brand "Airi" in shopping malls and on big screens.

“Then your fans must be very happy. I see there’s a lot of controversy surrounding your refusal to accept advertisements,” Ning Yi said to Ji Yan, playing with the strands of hair in her hand.

Ji Yan picked up a cup from the side, took a sip of water, and said slowly, "If you're going to accept something, accept something of value."

Ning Yi nodded: "That's true."

Ji Yan stared at Ning Yi, who was wearing pajamas in the video, and then asked, "Aren't you going out on Saturday? What are your plans lately?"

Ning Yi shook her head and replied, "I'm not too busy lately, so I can sleep in a bit and do some skincare."

His gaze softened, and he continued, "That's fine too. We probably won't see each other for over a month. I'll make it up to you properly after I'm done with this busy period."

Ning Yi smiled and said, "I'll wait for you. You have your work to do, so just focus on it. I'm not that petty."

They chatted for a while longer. After Ji Yan finished her meal, she needed to rest before going back to work, so Ning Yi didn't want to disturb her and hung up the phone.

Ji Yan also participated in one or two interviews in the past two days. He also specifically told everyone that this year's concert could not be held due to scheduling conflicts and personal reasons. He hopes that everyone can pay more attention to his new movie and will continue to write new songs to live up to everyone's expectations so that everyone will not wait in vain.

Then there was another meet-and-greet. I heard the tickets were selling like hotcakes, but the meet-and-greet was still the same as always. The tickets were cheap and not many, limited to about five or six hundred people, but it was a very generous event.

Since Ning Yi had nothing better to do, she decided to invite Yun Xia to go to the beauty salon for a skincare treatment.

"This feels so good. I've been so busy with work all day that it's been ages since I've had a facial at a beauty salon," Yunxia said, lying down and enjoying the massage from the beautician with her eyes closed.

Ning Yi replied, "I know you're busy with work, and since you had some free time, I thought I'd invite you out for a beauty treatment together."

Yunxia opened her eyes and asked, "Your boyfriend has been quite busy lately. I saw on Weibo that he's been quite popular lately."

"Yes, I've been very busy, and I haven't had many opportunities to see him lately," Ning Yi replied.

After the beautician finished applying the face masks for them, she left the room, leaving only Yunxia and Ningyi in the private room.

Yunxia asked curiously, "You two have been together for so long, and you've never been photographed together even once?"

Ning Yi shook her head, thought for a moment, and said, "I haven't seen it online yet. I don't know if Ji Yan specifically handled it."

Yunxia raised an eyebrow: "Judging from this, your boyfriend seems to be someone important."

Ning Yi slowly sat up, leaned against the small bed, picked up the lemonade from the table next to her, took a couple of sips, and said, "I also heard my brother mention it. Some things can be done with money. His family runs a business."

"Tsk tsk tsk, the lives of the rich are beyond my comprehension as a working-class person," Yunxia replied.

Afterwards, Ning Yi and Yun Xia went for a bath together. Although she wasn't as busy as Ji Yan, she hadn't had time to enjoy life for a long time.

Yunxia had work the next day, so she drove away early to say goodbye to Ningyi and leave.

When Ning Yi returned to the Ning residence, she saw An Hui sitting on the sofa chatting with Gu Ai.

"Aunt An, you're here too," Ning Yi greeted her.

When An Hui saw Ning Yi arrive, she greeted her with a smile, "Little Yi's back! Come here quickly!"

Ning Yi obediently walked over and sat down to the side.

An Hui took a bag from the coffee table, then took out a box from it, opened it, and handed it to Ning Yi, saying, "This is a bracelet that my friend and I picked out while traveling. We thought it was very pretty and would suit you, so we bought it for you. See if you like it."

Ning Yi said somewhat shyly, "Thank you, Auntie, it's very beautiful, thank you for spending money."

Gu Ai took a sip of tea, a smile on her face: "Only with a future mother-in-law like you can I feel at ease letting Xiaoyi marry you."

A hint of smugness flashed in An Hui's eyes: "Of course, you can rest assured. I won't let Xiaoyi suffer the slightest grievance after she marries into our family. If that brat Ji Yan dares to bully her, I won't protect him just because he's my son."

An Hui noticed that Ning Yi didn't have pierced ears, and then said, "Xiao Yi doesn't have pierced ears? Why didn't you take Xiao Yi to get her ears pierced? We can't buy these earrings!"

Ning Yi touched her earlobe. She had long since realized that she didn't have pierced ears, but she thought it was optional and didn't care.

Gu Ai put down her cup, looked at Ning Yi, and then replied, "I originally wanted to take her to get vaccinated when she was younger, but she was unwilling and afraid of the pain, so I thought we could do it later. Then Xiao Yi went abroad and we forgot about it."

An Hui then said to Ning Yi, "Xiao Yi, find some time to get your ears pierced, so Auntie can buy you more pretty jewelry. Girls should have lots of jewelry."

"Is Xiaoyan usually generous to you? Has she bought you many things?"

Ning Yi quickly said, "A-Yan is very kind and generous to me, and he bought a lot of things, so Auntie doesn't need to worry."

Is this what it feels like to be pampered by everyone?
