I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

“President Zhou of their family had personally stated before that he doesn’t like women, yet someone still tried to get to him through a woman. Such a little trick will definitely not succeed!”
Zhou Jinyuan rubbed his temples: “No need.”
He felt that, at most, Xu Nianying just wanted to get a hold on him or to please him; such trivial schemes to set him up were truly unnecessary.
In any case, between Chen Xixi, Jin Cheng, and Zheng He, one of them must be the culprit.
Zheng He wouldn’t dare, and Jin Cheng even less so.
The only one who dares, aside from the ‘tight-lipped’ Chen Xixi, there’s no one else. What else is there to investigate.
“Where’s Chen Xixi?” Zhou Jinyuan looked around and asked.
“I didn’t see her when I arrived.”
As soon as Assistant Xu finished speaking, Chen Xixi came out of the office inside.
Seeing Zhou Jinyuan at the police station, Chen Xixi felt somewhat embarrassed; after all, she was probably the only one who would report a sponsor to the station.
But she believed that with Zheng He there, no one should suspect her!
Moreover, who told him not to be serious? Selecting beauties in the private room, one after another—if he had done more decent work, he wouldn’t have been caught and brought here.
Chen Xixi revealed a standard smile, and politely expressed her concern, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Zhou Jinyuan looked at her, sighed leisurely, and said innocently, “It’s just that the police suspect you intended to solicit me, taking me out for a transaction, so they questioned me thoroughly.”
The bar had not only girls but also male models.
So… the police mistook Zhou Jinyuan for a male model, and her for a solicitor?
Chen Xixi was stunned: “!!!” How could she be unaware of such a big issue!
Although Zhou Jinyuan is indeed very handsome, she doesn’t have the money to solicit him, and even if she did have the money, she probably couldn’t afford him!
She wouldn’t dare to do such a thing even in her dreams; that would mean she’s gotten carried away!
Besides, as far as she knows, her heart isn’t that dirty!
She is very dedicated; dedicated to only loving money!
Even in her dreams, she dreams only of money!
Not a single unclean thing at all!
She feels there’s no heart purer than hers in the whole world!
Chen Xixi quickly asked, “So how did you explain it?”
Zhou Jinyuan looked at Chen Xixi’s anxious expression, chuckled lightly, “I said it was a misunderstanding, that you are not that kind of person.”
Chen Xixi was relieved, her innocence was preserved!
But she relieved herself too soon.
Because she heard him slowly say, “That’s what I told the police, but actually I can’t really say for sure. After all, how could I know what someone who has aspired to be an ‘Empress’ and possess three thousand handsome men since childhood is really thinking?”
“!!!”
To become an Empress, to want to possess three thousand handsome men!
That sounded very familiar.
It seemed like something she used to say often when playing house in her childhood…
Chen Xixi looked at Zhou Jinyuan, surprised: “How do you know about my childhood?”
Could it be that she had won over Zhou Jinyuan in her childhood and successfully included him in her harem?
Zhou Jinyuan curled his lips slightly and spoke calmly: “Because you had your sights on me even when you were little.”
“…” How could that be possible? She herself didn’t clearly remember what happened in her childhood. Zhou Jinyuan must be bluffing her; they are not from the same world, how could they have known each other since childhood?
After a while, Chen Xixi came to a conclusion: “President Zhou, you must have mistaken me for someone else.”
Zhou Jinyuan suddenly laughed, nodding his head, “Understood. After all, it’s normal for someone who can spout such lofty words to not want to take responsibility,”
Chen Xixi: “…” Why does she seem like a flaky woman?
Chen Xixi thought for a long time but couldn’t recall anything related to Zhou Jinyuan in her mind. It’s been too long, and even if she could remember bits and pieces and people, they were all vague and unclear.
Chen Xixi felt that if she stayed any longer, she would really get into big trouble, so she immediately said, “President Zhou, I’ll head back first.”
She needed to go back and remember when exactly she had taken him into her harem.
There was a smile in Zhou Jinyuan’s eyes, “Mhm, I’ll have the driver take you. It’s not safe for the Empress to be alone this late.”
Zhou Jinyuan’s voice wasn’t too loud or too soft, but they were still in the police station, and the bustling police officers around them all heard it.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xixi saw everyone around them looking over.
Chen Xixi: “…” Brother, you’re making this very embarrassing for me!
She quickly covered her face and ran off.
Zhou Jinyuan laughed as he watched her panic-stricken retreat.
Assistant Xu, standing behind Zhou Jinyuan, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and snicker. Looking at President Zhou’s demeanor, it won’t be long until the little young master is born!
The day after Jin Cheng said there was a problem with Chen Xixi’s gender, Zhou Jinyuan had someone thoroughly investigate Chen Xixi. Her gender hadn’t changed from birth, and there was no issue of her being raised as a girl in their family, so there was no problem in that regard.
He wasn’t surprised by the result, as his nephew was not very reliable to begin with.
Including this incident.
There were two more days until the end of the show, and it was time to arrange some work for Jin Cheng. Studying abroad in France during the day, and earning tuition by working three jobs at night. He wouldn’t even have time to touch his phone. Pretty good.
…
Zheng He returned to the apartment and began to feel despondent again. It was past midnight, which meant there were less than 48 hours left until the end of the program.
And right now, Chen Xixi was still number one in both funds and popularity rankings. With a total amount of over 140,000.
How was he supposed to get that much money in 48 hours?!
This was too hopeless.
For once, he suddenly wanted to give up struggling.
There was no way to win; there was nothing he could do…
Zheng He sat on the balcony outside, without turning on the light. There might be rain tonight—the gray clouds were very low, the air stuffy, making it hard to breathe, inevitably causing his mood to become a bit lost and irritable.
Han Qianyi was half-asleep when she felt as if there was a shadow outside the floor-to-ceiling window. She suddenly woke up and saw it was Zheng He. She also glanced at the weather outside, and kindly reminded him, “With your luck, you better not sit outside, what if it starts to thunder?”
Zheng He’s phone had just been charged at the police station, and he looked at the weather forecast, “No worries, it’s just a local shower, no thunder…”
Before Zheng He finished speaking, “whoosh,” the rain suddenly poured from the sky, soaking Zheng He from head to toe.
Zheng He hurriedly covered his phone and dashed inside. Looking through the floor-to-ceiling window to the balcony—
Only the spot where he had just been standing was wet; everywhere else was dry!
“…” WTF?? Is even the universe against him?!
This local shower was specific enough; it must have been meant just for him!
Zheng He wiped his face, washed by the rain and consoled himself—no big deal, consider it a shower.
Even more fortuitously, he was thankful it wasn’t a thunderstorm; if thunder were to strike just his spot, who knows if a lightning rod would even help.
Han Qianyi couldn’t help but giggle under the covers.
Huffing with irritation, Zheng He opened his suitcase, took out clothes and pants to change in the bathroom. After changing, he wiped the wet phone screen with his clothes.
Just then, the screen suddenly lit up, and a message from a video platform popped up.
“Shocking! A man draws international paper money 1:1!”
Drawing money?
This caught Zheng He’s interest. If he had that function, wouldn’t the amount of funds be whatever he said it was?!
