Ye Shuang finally realized—so the so-called celebrity was Alice?
No wonder there were so many Hong Kong license plates parked in this village.
"Is Alice here too?" Ye Shuang asked.
"Yes, Miss Alice is filming a movie in this tea plantation today," Bobo replied. Despite his towering stature, he exuded a gentle aura. Noticing the big yellow dog wagging its tail at Ye Shuang's feet, he even pulled out a sausage labeled "[For Dogs]" from his suit pocket.
You’re really well-prepared for feeding dogs and cats, huh?
Ye Shuang couldn’t help but think.
"My apologies, Mr. Ye Shuang. I can’t resist feeding little animals when I see them," Bobo said with a smile before asking, "Did something happen earlier?"
Ye Shuang glanced at the staff member, whose face paled. He never expected these people to know Bobo—and from the sound of it, they seemed familiar with Alice too.
"I-I was just worried about leaks," the staff stammered.
"Yeah, that’s about it. He even wanted to check our phones," Ye Shuang added.
The staff member panicked even more.
"Go brew some tea for Mr. Ye Shuang and his friends as an apology," Bobo said sternly to the staff, giving him an out. After all, they were colleagues—no need to make things ugly.
"O-okay!" The staff member scurried away like he was fleeing.
Ye Shuang didn’t dwell on it and simply said, "If that’s the case, we won’t overstay."
"Not at all. Please, come in and watch. Have some tea and rest for a while," Bobo insisted warmly.
"Hmm…" Ye Shuang looked at Tang Duoduo, who was staring at him with starry eyes, clearly impressed that this "uncle" had connections to a celebrity.
"Won’t we be intruding?"
"Not at all. I’m sure Miss Alice would be delighted," Bobo said before leading them inside.
Under the shade of a canopy, a group of people sat chatting. Among them, a petite girl stood out—she was holding what looked like a script while noisily sipping juice.
"Miss Alice, I’m back."
"Mm." Alice responded absentmindedly, gnawing on her script. "This is so hard."
"Huh?"
Then, as if sensing something from the corner of her eye, she turned her head—and her gaze locked onto Ye Shuang, Bai Yuyou, and the others.
"Pfft—!"
"Why are you guys here?!" Alice was so startled that she squeezed her juice cup too hard, splashing some onto her own face.
"It’s a long story. ‘Coincidence’ sums it up," Ye Shuang said with a faint smile.
"Running into you in a place like this is definitely one hell of a ‘coincidence,’" Alice grumbled. "Whatever, since you’re here, take a seat and enjoy my stellar performance. Consider it a rare privilege."
"This celebrity… seems kinda grumpy," Tang Duoduo whispered to Tang Keke.
"That’s just how she is," Tang Keke replied. "It’s called… uh… tsundere."
"What are you two muttering about?" Alice demanded.
"Nothing!"
"Keep badmouthing me, and I’ll kick you out," Alice threatened.
Bobo chimed in helpfully, "Miss Alice has never actually kicked anyone out. In fact, she’s quite happy right now."
"Bobo, shut it!"
Sitting beside Alice was a woman with a sweet, girl-next-door charm. She watched the scene with amusement—until her eyes landed on Ye Shuang’s face. She froze.
"Y-Ye… Ye Ge?"
"Hm?" Ye Shuang turned toward the voice and met the woman’s gaze.
"You… Ran Xinxin?" he asked after a moment.
"Yes, Ye Ge!" She beamed, jumping up to give him a light hug. "Ahhh, it’s been so long!!!"
"Ran Xinxin… isn’t she that super popular idol right now?" Tang Duoduo was stunned. Why did this uncle know so many important people?
Tang Keke, however, remained unfazed. Compared to Chen Qin’s private jet and island, this wasn’t that shocking.
Meanwhile, Bai Yuyou stared intently at the hug, her thoughts unreadable.
"Ye Shuang, you know Xinxin-jie?" Alice sounded surprised.
"Curious?" Ye Shuang smirked.
"N-no! Why would I care about something like that?" Alice huffed. "I just don’t want Xinxin-jie getting tricked by weirdos."
Ran Xinxin quickly explained, "Before my debut, Ye Ge helped me a lot. He even funded my university tuition. To me, he’s my benefactor."
"I see…"
"Big Brother seems to have a lot of stories," Tang Keke mused.
"Not really," Ye Shuang brushed it off. To him, the past was the past—no need to dwell on it.
Ran Xinxin was indeed a struggling college student he’d once sponsored out of simple kindness. He never expected to run into her here.
The most mortified person right now was the staff member who’d stopped Ye Shuang earlier. Holding the tea tray, he stood awkwardly to the side—this wasn’t just some random passerby he’d messed with, but someone with ties to Alice and Ran Xinxin.
He was already mentally drafting his resignation letter.
"Ye Ge, is this… your girlfriend?" Ran Xinxin asked, eyeing Bai Yuyou, who was practically glued to Ye Shuang.
"She’s—" Before Ye Shuang could finish, Bai Yuyou suddenly murmured:
"Married. We’re married."
"Huh?" Ye Shuang was taken aback. As Bai Yuyou had grown more mature, she’d stopped using the word "married" for a while. Yet now, she’d said it again—and even clung tighter to his arm.
"YOOOOOOOOOOOO~" Tang Keke’s eyes widened. "Is this… jealousy?"
It’s happening, it’s happening! Tang Keke was so excited she almost slapped her own thigh—but settled for smacking her sister’s butt instead.
Tang Duoduo yelped, "Ow! What was that for?"
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
