Chapter 69: Asking Questions

It was still Liu Yue who resolved Shen Mo's confusion.

Liu Xinhua had suddenly awakened, feeling that whether familial affection or romantic love, none of it was real.

Since that was the case, he might as well work hard to earn more money.

So Liu Xinhua made a deal with Liu Yue: seventy percent of his future assets would go to Liu Yue, and the entire Liu family business would also go to Liu Yue.

The remaining thirty percent Liu Xinhua wanted to control himself,

Liu Xinhua declared that he had been a coward for half his life and wanted to live it up once.

But Liu Xinhua also said that the money he ultimately left to Liu Yue would certainly not be a small amount.

Liu Yue looked at the light shining in Liu Xinhua's eyes and agreed to this request.

She felt that a Liu Xinhua with motivation could create even more wealth.

In any case, the lion's share would end up being hers.

Besides, Liu Yue herself had never thought of monopolizing the inheritance—that would look too stupid.

After hearing all this, Shen Mo raised another question in his mind.

【My old father-in-law wouldn't have agreed to give those women money, would he?】

【Speaking of which, the old father-in-law's health really is impressive—at his age, he can still keep a main wife and a concubine living together.】

Liu Yue scoffed inwardly and continued explaining: "It's not that my dad's health is good; it's that Li Qingyue and Liu Qingqing's mother are too good at acting."

Shen Mo was speechless.

【Those words are extremely insulting.】

The one who came to pick up Shen Mo and Liu Yue was the elegant lady.

Half a year hadn't seen each other, and the other party was even more beautiful, her temperament even more mature.

Shen Mo couldn't help sighing inwardly.

【Wealth truly nurtures a person.】

Not long after returning home, Auntie Wenya arranged a job for Liu Yue and Shen Mo.

To be guests on a show for one episode.

The main thing was to film the two of them for a day.

Originally, a Best Actor couple had been booked, but two days ago the Best Actor's reputation collapsed.

It turned out the Best Actress everyone had assumed was the Best Actor's wife outside was actually his mistress; his true wife who had shared his hard times was at home.

That wife of hard times, after accumulating enough disappointment, went abroad.

Before leaving, she hammered the Best Actor half to death, directly to the point of retiring from the industry.

That Best Actress knowingly played the other woman, and the strong-woman image she had built up also collapsed.

This made Wenya both furious and angry.

Whether you two's reputations collapse or not isn't important; what's important is my show!

But the good news is that because the two of them had their scandals and left on the show, this show didn't have to be shut down, and could even get a large breach-of-contract penalty.

The bad news was that they had to find replacements on short notice.

Moreover, the replacements all had to be heavyweight, otherwise they couldn't hold things down.

Originally, the elegant lady had been preparing to find some of her old friends.

Now that Shen Mo and Liu Yue had returned, it would be these two youngsters.

And she wouldn't even have to pay them—how great.

Shen Mo and Liu Yue could only smile bitterly, but who could refuse when it was the elegant lady who made the request?

………

The twenty-sixth of the twelfth lunar month, evening.

The variety show "A Day in the Life of a Big Star" announced to everyone's surprise that it would air normally tomorrow.

And the guests had been replaced with Shen Mo and Liu Yue.

Netizens all laughed—this was finding two unlucky sods on short notice.

And they didn't even have to pay them.

One netizen suggested, how about we go watch the livestream to celebrate for these two unlucky sods?

And they were very curious what kind of script these two unlucky sods would encounter.

No, rather, could a script written on short notice even be watchable?

Immediately, countless likes appeared below.

Everyone got excited, wanting to see how a script written on short notice was put together.

Everyone accepted that variety shows have scripts.

………

The twenty-seventh of the twelfth lunar month, early morning.

In Auntie Wenya's home, in Liu Yue and Shen Mo's room, the camera quietly turned on.

Shen Mo and Liu Yue had known in advance, so what they wore were snug, well-covered pajamas.

The people who had been waiting early in front of the livestream camera looked at the two of them, each taking half of the kang, and all broke into smiles. This damn thing is what real sleeping looks like.

How could anyone cuddle and sleep the whole night?

At seven o'clock, Shen Mo slowly woke up, glanced at the camera, tucked the blanket in around Liu Yue, and wandered out in a daze.

The camera instantly cut to the bathroom.

The sturdy figure behind the glass door made countless girls in front of the camera gulp.

Sometimes, women are more lecherous than men.

When the refreshing Shen Mo appeared, countless viewers cried out that it was a critical hit.

Shen Mo glanced at Liu Yue again, then turned and went to the restaurant.

"Elegant lady, Ms. Qin Hao, Grandpa and Grandma didn't want to be on camera, so they moved out a day early. I can only cook for myself."

Breakfast was very simple.

Shen Mo cooked millet, red date, and goji berry porridge, fried some eggs, made hand-grabbed pancakes, and also steamed corn and sweet potatoes.

Glancing at the camera, Shen Mo explained, "The corn and sweet potatoes are both from our own field."

Right after that, Shen Mo began cutting pickled vegetables, and stir-fried two small plates of greens.

Shen Mo explained to the camera again, "Normally our family doesn't eat this well."

"But since we're live-streaming today, I made a bit more."

"These hand-grabbed pancakes, eggs, and greens are all from our own home too."

"If any of you come travel to Erbin, you can try them at the farmhouse courtyard my wife invested in."

The viewers in the live stream all laughed.

This really is advertising non-stop, every single moment.

Shen Mo went back and glanced at Liu Yue — she still hadn't gotten up — so he put the food into the steamer to keep warm.

Quite a few viewers said one after another that it felt real.

But some people also started complaining about Liu Yue's laziness: a CEO still not going to bed early and rising early, still sleeping in.

The cameraman relayed this question to Shen Mo.

Shen Mo's answer was very simple: "A CEO is still a person too. She also plays on her phone until the small hours, experiencing the joy of staying up late."

Netizens laughed one after another — so the CEO surfs the web too.

Right after, another netizen asked: don't you two do anything intimate?

Shen Mo rolled his eyes — is that even broadcastable?

Sensing that many people would keep asking questions, Shen Mo went back to the living room, sat down, and focused on replying.

The netizens' questions were wild.

For example, can we see your abs?

Shen Mo: "No."

Can you talk about your and CEO Liu's nightlife?

No.

The internet all says you're Lao Ai — can I get a taste? I can pay three thousand yuan to book you for a day.

No.

Don't be so quick to refuse, my roommate and I can split the cost for thirty thousand yuan.

Even more no.

Shen Mo's face went pitch black — what kind of savage words are these?

I'm a guy, and your muscles are so well-developed, are you…

Shen Mo's face darkened: "Get lost."

What kind of people are these?

Shen Mo felt like he was going crazy.

Unfortunately, those people didn't feel crazy at all.

Finally, after the director personally stepped in, someone started asking normal questions.

Bro Mo, what's the secret to you and CEO Liu keeping your relationship strong?

Shen Mo was also in high spirits now, and answered excitedly: "It's IQ."

"Because both my wife and I are rational people."

"We both know what should be done and what shouldn't, and we won't do things that hurt our own interests because of some outside temptation."

"For example, I won't turn bad just because I have money, because I know where my money comes from and how to maximize the benefits."

"By the way, I firmly believe love is shown through actions, not spoken through words."

Shen Mo's words left the live stream silent.

Right after, the second question popped up.

Bro Mo, why did you and CEO Liu end up together? I really don't understand this one.
