"It can be adjusted, or rather, added?"
"How exactly will this be added?"
Lu Wangshen tossed a piece of ham into his plate. "This is too salty. I don't want to eat this."
"Give me back the salt... Fine, I won't argue with you. Adding more is fine, but are you going to fabricate another project at the last minute? How about a web movie? It has a short production time, but surely that wouldn't be suitable for her either."
"No, no, who said we have to start from scratch?"
Lu Wangshen shook his head.
Although Lu Mingye's abilities are generally acceptable, he is still not as good as Lu Mingye when it comes to tricking people.
"We just collected all the projects that we knew would fail and dumped them on her, and that was the end of it."
"You're going a bit too far. What if she gets overconfident and takes it all?"
"Isn't this just right?"
Lu Wangshen seemed less concerned about the cheese than the ham, saying as he ate, "You're not worried about scamming other people, are you? If you ask me, the very thing about creating this kind of project is to scam people. Wouldn't it be great if they scammed each other?"
“I actually didn’t want them to make money, which is why I said we fabricated it from the beginning.”
Lu Mingye wasn't worried about these people being scammed, but rather that money is conserved; it only flows.
That means if Ninth Concubine was scammed out of money, there must be a way for that money to go. He doesn't want those scoundrels who fabricate bad projects to make that money.
"It's alright, we can just get involved. But you're right, if she takes them all, we can't interfere with them all, we can only pick two or three key projects."
Lu Wangshen replied.
Lu Mingye breathed a sigh of relief because no cheese had been thrown into his plate.
He actually wanted to eat spicy skewers, but it would be too strange for them to be delivered together with what Lu Wangshen ordered... so he had no choice but to order some ham and grilled steak as well.
At least I can say I had barbecue for dinner, so I feel a little happier...
Isn't the most important thing about eating late-night snacks this feeling of happiness...?
However, according to online conventions, shouldn't he take a picture now?
But I've already eaten half of it...
"I took the picture and will send it to you."
Lu Wangshen could tell what he wanted to do just by looking at the way he hesitated when he picked up his phone.
"When will you... never mind, just send it to me."
Lu Mingye also posted a rare Weibo post, but unlike Lu Wangshen who spouted nonsense, he posted a relatively normal message: "After a busy day, it's time to treat myself."
He then discovered that Lu Wangshen's attention had immediately shifted to him...
The comments from netizens were varied, with most saying things like "It's too much to see this late at night" and rejecting late-night food. A small number commented that his late-night snack didn't seem like a proper late-night snack... This was something Lu Mingye didn't like to hear.
The most baffling thing was asking him why he was still eating late-night snacks when Lu Wangshen was almost murdered...
Is it possible that he was having a late-night snack with Lu Wangshen?
A person is killed, but doesn't die; instead, they will starve.
"I'm truly impressed. Only someone with a deep understanding of the internet can navigate this public opinion landscape so skillfully."
Lu Mingye pointed this out to Lu Wangshen, "First of all, you're fine. Secondly, even if you were in trouble, would I have to go on a hunger strike to prove my innocence?"
"It's normal. Netizens will subconsciously speculate, or rather, based on their common sense. They say this on the premise that I have a good relationship with you."
Lu Wangshen thought to himself that he didn't know whether the relationship was good or not, and even the existence of the relationship itself was something he had only recently confirmed.
“Who wants to talk to you… Oh. You mean, after all, they don’t really know what the Lu family is like, and they can only make inferences based on their own logic? For example, if a brother gets into trouble, they have to be so upset that they can’t eat or drink for a while before they can express their affection.”
"Yes, that's it. I agree with you. I think this is a point that can be used, which is why I posted it on Weibo just now."
Lu Mingye: He's at it again. There are always eight hundred reasons behind every single thing he does...
The reasons kept emerging, and he seemed to see Ye Wanyin's name displayed in a WeChat push notification.
"Do you want to come with me to find her?"
Lu Wangshen glanced at the message but did not reply. Then he suddenly made a suggestion.
After all, anyone could guess what Ye Wanyin would say—nothing more than something like, "I'm so worried about my brother"...
At times like this, it's impossible to have a back-and-forth reply with her, so I simply pretend to be busy.
Moreover, his Weibo post about hurting someone's knee has definitely made Ye Wanyin overthink things.
Although this was not his initial goal, the fact that the mental attack could include Ye Wanyin was still a good result.
"What do you want with her? To eat the leftovers from the film crew, the kind of food so hard you could use it as a weapon?" Lu Mingye said speechlessly.
"Of course it will be useful. Guess how she'll react if she finds out Ni Zhen is entering the entertainment industry?"
"That was my oversight. I noticed that Ni Zhen was particularly attentive to you and me yesterday. Could it be that she actually..."
"She probably fantasizes that Ye Wanyin has the support of the three of us—though I don't want to say it, the third is Lu Wangqian—which is why she has the comfortable life she has now."
Lu Wangshen sneered, "It's a pity that she married an old man, or rather, became his concubine. She won't get this kind of life at all. At least the old man won't show any affection with her on set."
"Do you think she has a big appetite?"
Lu Mingye muttered to himself.
Those who marry into the Lu family, or those who form alliances with the Lu family, are definitely there with some kind of purpose, but so far, Lu Mingye has not seen through Ni Zhen's purpose.
She seemed to be completely enjoying this life, even though Lu Mingye had absolutely no idea what was so enjoyable about it...
Her so-called life as a wealthy socialite is completely fake, because she was never married and was nothing more than a mistress in name only.
In other words, some naive and materialistic people become her fans.
It's about matching the pot with the lid, because Ni Zhen herself is exactly that kind of person.
If she simply wants to maintain her current standard of living, that would be closer to the impression she gave off before.
"People's appetites can be increased, which is normal. What's funny is that she seems to think of Ye Sanqing as her imaginary enemy."
"No, how is this imagined?"
Lu Mingye was so surprised that he forgot to eat. "Putting aside their acting styles, their appearances are completely different, aren't they? Besides, there's the difference in their social status. She's a legitimate young lady of the Ye family, and what is she?"
"You're absolutely right about her appearance, so we can use Ye Wanyin to deal with her."
Lu Wangshen finally revealed a genuine smile of good mood.
