Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Someone is Coveting Your Cabbage! Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Someone is Coveting Your Cabbage! Cao Mei chuckled, “Silly child, how could I let you do such a thing? I just think that the artist’s appearance is not bad, if we could make him exert some pressure on Lu Zhaozhao…”

Xia Wenjin rubbed her temples with her hand, “Mom, what are you thinking? With a man like Song Sinian by Lu Zhaozhao’s side, how could she possibly take a liking to Yin Zhuhai?”

Even she wouldn’t.

After all, Song Sinian and Yin Zhuhai were not in the same league.

Cao Mei’s laughter came over from the other end of the phone, “The crux of the matter isn’t to make Lu Zhaozhao fall for that artist, but to make Song Sinian believe that those two are involved with each other, as for whether it’s true or false, does that really matter?”

Xia Wenjin immediately understood Cao Mei’s meaning.

As long as Song Sinian believed Lu Zhaozhao was cheating, it no longer mattered whether she really was or not!

Xia Wenjin couldn’t help but feel a sense of admiration at the bottom of her heart, indeed, the old ginger is hotter than the new!

After the live broadcast ended that morning, all the guests returned to the Dining House.

Because of Pei Huai’s confusing behavior earlier, Lu Zhaozhao didn’t want to get too involved with him, so she tried her best to avoid spending time alone with him when not broadcasting.

As soon as she got back to the Dining House, Lu Zhaozhao immediately ran to the second-floor rest area.

But as soon as she turned to the second-floor corner, she ran into Yin Zhuhai, a guest who had come to join the show.

He was holding a stack of things in his hands, which seemed like props that were to be used for the live broadcast.

Lu Zhaozhao asked subconsciously, “Do you need help?”

Yin Zhuhai politely chuckled at her, then spoke with a bit of embarrassment, “Although it’s not very gentlemanly to have a lady help carry heavy objects, I really do need Miss Lu’s assistance.”

His candid manner didn’t cause any displeasure.

Lu Zhaozhao casually replied, “Since you’ve asked so sincerely, I definitely should help.”

She naturally took over the things he was holding and together, they headed towards the direction of the storage room.

The two chatted casually as they walked.

Suddenly, Yin Zhuhai said somewhat awkwardly, “Miss Lu, when we reorganize teams for the live broadcast tomorrow, could you pick me?”

Lu Zhaozhao raised her eyebrows skeptically, looking puzzledly at Yin Zhuhai.

He was currently part of a team with Xia Wenjin, if she picked him tomorrow, she guessed it would likely stir up the news again, right?

Yin Zhuhai, as if seeing through Lu Zhaozhao’s thoughts, quickly explained, “I’m not intending to have Xia Wenjin step on you, and we’re not really close, we’re just colleagues from the same company.”

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyebrows knitted slightly, “Do you have any reason for asking to change team members?”

Yin Zhuhai gave a wry smile, “Xia Wenjin and I are from the same company, and almost all of the company’s resources are piled on her alone. This variety show is one of the few good opportunities I have, and if I don’t shine in the upcoming live broadcast, I might never make a name for myself…”

When he said this, the light in his eyes clearly dimmed.

Filming the show with Xia Wenjin, he indeed couldn’t shine.

Even if he did, he’d probably have his thunder stolen by Xia Wenjin, right?

After all, Xia Wenjin was very good at doing so.

Lu Zhaozhao sighed, looking at Yin Zhuhai and asked, “Then why me?”

Yin Zhuhai did not hide it, “Because you have popularity, but you don’t want to be famous, and in addition… during the live broadcast just now, whether intentionally or unintentionally, you tried to avoid Mr. Pei. I was thinking that maybe being teamed up with him made you uncomfortable…”

He said this, glancing at Lu Zhaozhao, then quickly added another sentence, “Of course, the last part is just my speculation, and I apologize if it offends you.”

He looked incredibly sincere, and what he said seemed logical and well-founded.

Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know what excuse to use to refuse him in that moment.

After hesitating for a bit, she continued, “Although I really want to help you, I also don’t want to stir up trouble. You should know that my relationship with Xia Wenjin isn’t good to begin with.”

Yin Zhuhai was indeed pitiable, but he wasn’t the only one in the entertainment industry.

Besides, there were plenty of pitiable people in the world, and she wasn’t a saint; she couldn’t help them all.

Yin Zhuhai pursed his lips, “If I can find a way to deal with this tricky problem, then could you pick me for your team tomorrow?”

His pathetic gaze at Lu Zhaozhao, his appearance of weakness, reminded her of Song Sinian for a fleeting moment.

She wondered what he was doing now and if he missed her…

Lu Zhaozhao’s silence led Yin Zhuhai to assume she agreed.

He immediately said with a smile in his eyes, “Thank you! Miss Lu! I’ll solve the rest very soon! Just wait for my action!”

With that, he happily left embracing his things.

Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes widened suddenly, and only after Yin Zhuhai had left did she come to her senses.

She scratched her head in annoyance, feeling like she had just invited big trouble for herself.

What Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know at the moment was that Yin Zhuhai, who had just run off, was now standing around the corner of the corridor.

Only when the footsteps in the hallway faded away did he reveal a smug smile.

Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t understand what Yin Zhuhai meant by his last remark before leaving.

It wasn’t until the afternoon livestream started that she realized what his “action” was.

Xia Wenyan was already sticking to her closely during the livestream, nearly assisting her with everything.

If his help wasn’t needed, he would be doing something else beside her.

What was supposed to be a 1V1 had now turned into a 1V2.

Lu Zhaozhao was doing everything with not just Xia Wenyan but also Yin Zhuhai close by her side.

This gave her a massive headache.

Xia Wenyan, of course, was not pleased to have someone else vying for his sister’s attention besides him.

He looked at the man beside him with crossed arms and annoyance, “Yin Zhuhai, don’t you have any other work to do?”

Yin Zhuhai’s face was smiling warmly, his demeanor gentle, “I’ve finished everything else, the only thing I want to do right now is to watch my sister.”

Xia Wenyan’s mouth twitched, disdainfully glancing at Yin Zhuhai, “Zhaozhao is my sister. I’m here, you’re not needed.”

His annoyed gaze all but had ‘don’t look’ written across his face.

Yin Zhuhai, pretending not to understand, propped his chin with his hands, and swiftly changed the topic, “I rarely see someone who can make an apron look this good…”

Xia Wenyan paused, instinctively looking towards Lu Zhaozhao, then instantly boasted with pride, “That’s right, did you see who’s sister she is~”
[Hahaha, I’m going to die laughing at Yan Bao. One second you’re the protective brother, and the next you’ve been tricked? What’s happening?!]
[Sister’s really got divine beauty, can’t blame Yanyan and Zhuhai for being infatuated, hahaha, I’d watch too if I were there!]
[Mr. Pei, save her, your little wife has been brainwashed, hahaha…]
[Has Yin Zhuhai taken a fancy to sister? Tsk tsk, Yanyan, someone’s after your cabbage!]
