As far as he could remember, Third Master had never told him to take a few days off. He brain-racked for a bit, thinking of what he had done wrong recently.

Lu Beichen clicked his tongue and said in disdain, “You didn’t do anything wrong, I’m just giving you a break. Didn’t you say that you don’t have a girlfriend? You should get one while you’re still young.”

“Really?”

Lu Beichen answered patiently, “…Why, yes.”

Xiao Chen was instantly happy. “Thank you, Third Master.”

“Third Master, do you have any important instructions for me today?”

He asked this question every day. There would always be a long hesitation before he asked, however, today, he was very straightforward with the question.

Lu Beichen looked up. “Invest in ‘Red Maze’. Then, remove the public opinion about me on the internet. Make sure you also hack the initiator’s account.”

“Understood.” Xiao Chen replied.

At around 11 pm, Weibo became lively again.

Zheng Min scrolled through her phone at home again and again, wanting to post on Weibo to clarify everything, but she couldn’t do it no matter what she tried.

She contacted people for help, but they all said that her Weibo account had been hacked, and they couldn’t do anything about it.

Zheng Min threw her phone at her bedroom door.

“This is crazy. I have seven million fans! Who would be so wicked to do this? It must be Song Chichi and Tang Wei, those two b*tches. God, I’m so angry.”

She paced back and forth anxiously.

No, but why did Lu Beichen suddenly invest in ‘Red Maze’?

Could it be that he had taken a fancy to Song Chichi?

She despised Lu Beichen in her heart. In the end, he was indeed just an ugly old man. How could he favor her for a short while and then immediately turn to Song Chichi?

Tang Wei sat in Drunken Immortal Residence, scrolling through her phone. She could not help but smile happily. After all, she had just heard people discussing what was happening on the internet while on her way to her cubicle.

This was really the leisure time for people to eat lunch, and gossip was its side dish.

Song Tianwen and Song Chichi arrived together. Song Tianwen noticed the faint smile on Tang Wei’s lips.

“What made you so happy?” he asked.

Tang Wei closed her Weibo app and looked up at the two of them.

“You’ve arrived. Come, sit down.” She stood up and gestured for them to sit down.

Song Chichi leaned against her best friend and said, “I guess Wei’er is happy because she saw what’s currently happening on Weibo.”

As she spoke, she became very excited.

“I heard a few people discussing it downstairs just now. It’s really satisfying.”

Tang Wei pursed her lips and smiled. “I know.”

Song Tianwen sat opposite of Tang Wei.

The latter noticed this and felt a little embarrassed. Song Tianwen had just arrived, and she had been ignoring him completely.

She said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Song. It took me so long to fulfill my promise to treat you to a meal.”

Song Tianwen chuckled and teased, “It’s worth it no matter how long it is to get a free meal from you.”

“Cough cough cough…” Song Chichi had never heard her uncle say such shocking words, and she couldn’t help but choke on her water.

Tang Wei took the drink from her hand and patted her back.

The girl coughed for a while. When she looked up and saw her uncle’s terrifying gaze, she swallowed her saliva.

“My stomach hurts a little. I’m going to the bathroom.”

She quickly found an excuse to cover her stomach and quickly left the cubicle.

Tang Wei’s hand, who was about to grab her best friend’s hand, stopped mid-air and retracted awkwardly.

“Don’t be shy and eat, Mr. Song.” Tang Wei pursed her lips and said.

“You don’t have to be too restrained. I’m not going to eat you,” Song Tianwen said.

“Mr. Song, you must be joking. I’m not restrained at all.” She replied, stunned.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

She touched her neck with the other hand, feeling a little uneasy.

“Oh right, what are you doing now?” Song Tianwen asked.

“I’m currently working as a scriptwriter.”

He stopped eating as he looked at her. “You, are you the scriptwriter for ‘Red Maze’?”

She nodded slowly, her expression relaxing a lot. She smiled and said, “Did you not think of the possibility at all?”

“VV and Weiwei, huh… I really didn’t expect this.” Song Tianwen nodded.

“That’s normal.”

The atmosphere between the two of them relaxed a lot, and soon, it was no longer an awkward conversation.

They were enjoying their time. The man said something which made the woman laugh.

Lu Beichen stood at the door of the cubicle as he watched this scene, unknown anger rising in his heart.

He raised his hand to loosen his tie and saw Song Tianwen use his chopsticks to pick up a dish that should be very disgusting for his wife!

He pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek, his eyebrows tightly pressed together.

A business partner behind him said, “Do you know them, President Lu?”

“No, I don’t.” Lu Beichen took the lead and walked out. “Mr. Cheng, I hope we can work together happily.”

Even though General Manager Cheng was two steps behind the young man, he was not unhappy. He smiled and said, “Why, of course.”

On the other hand, Song Tianwen stared at Tang Wei as he said, “I picked this up with unused chopsticks, so don’t worry. Try it,”

“Thank you, Mr. Song… This doesn’t look good, so it shouldn’t taste good either, right?” Tang Wei asked nervously.

The food in Drunken Immortal Residence was known to be the best. However, she was still afraid that one or two ‘special’ ones would still pop out.

Song Tianwen’s lips were still smiling. When he heard this, he only raised his chin, indicating for her to try it first.

She pursed her lips and nervously picked up a piece of the black paste, stuffing it into her mouth.

He looked at the girl’s expression, the smile on his handsome face widening.

In the next second, her eyes widened in surprise as she chewed with relief.

“The texture is very good. It’s crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Why did this chef make it look so unappetizing?”

“This place has a chef who only comes here once a week. The customers would always come over for his cooking, but he felt overwhelmed from the amount of people constantly ordering his food. Moreover, he was a busy man, so he decided to make his dishes look unappetizing so that people would avoid ordering it. However, the old customers weren’t really fooled as they knew his cooking was always so fragrant and delicious. Interestingly enough, those customers thought that the chef should keep doing this. After all, if he continued making his food like this, then the new customers wouldn’t know and fall in love with his cooking.This would be beneficial to his old customers as less people would be ordering the chef’s dishes.”

Tang Wei nodded. “Logically speaking, the more customers he gets, the easier it is to earn money. However, it seems like that chef isn’t really aiming to make money. He’s probably doing it as a hobby.”

“Not bad, your guess is correct.”

Song Chichi stuck her head out of the door, wondering if she should go in.

Tang Wei glanced at her from the corner of her eye and said, “If you came any later, we would’ve eaten your share of food.”

The girl entered with a smile.

“Ding! Ding!”

Tang Wei looked at her phone. It was a bunch of messages from Lu Beichen.

She wiped her mouth and quickly said, “I’m sorry. I have something to do and have to go back first. Mr. Song, Chichi, you guys enjoy your meal first.”

“What? I haven’t eaten yet, and you’re already leaving?” Song Chichi pursed her lips and looked at her best friend.

Tang Wei looked at her phone and said, “You went to the bathroom for half an hour. Were you constipated?”

She whispered the last sentence softly to her best friend.

Song Chichi replied, “Yes, I was.”

“…I’ll be leaving first.” Tang Wei said.

Song Tianwen’s gaze fell on the cell phone in the girl’s hand and turned his eyes away in an instant.

He didn’t hide his disappointment as he said regretfully, “Then… Alright, I’m already very happy to have had dinner with you today.”

Tang Wei pretended as if nothing had happened and brushed her hair behind her ear. She said to the uncle and nephew, “It was also nice to have dinner with you guys.”

“Bye bye, Wei’er. I won’t be sending you out,” Song Chichi said.

“Okay.”

Tang Wei nodded politely at Song Tianwen and walked out of the cubicle.

She drove straight to the old mansion.

Lu Beichen sent her a few messages in a row, saying that Miss Su was here and asking where she was. ‘Where are you?’ He sent this sentence ten times.

Tang Wei was worried that Lu Beichen must be feeling very anxious from waiting.
