Chapter 738 World 273
The Special Affairs Bureau made arrangements quickly, so Ke Xue arrived just as quickly.
When Ke arrived, it was almost dinnertime, and everyone was sitting in the lobby.
Because of Shen Ruyin, the people at Muyun Studio were also familiar with Ke Xue. When they saw him enter with his team, Sister Feng, who was sitting next to Shen Ruyin, nudged her.
"Yinyin, look, your boss is here."
Shen Ruyin raised her head, exchanged a glance with Ke Xue, and spoke first: "Boss."
Ke Xue nodded knowingly and then began to greet the others.
This was originally a very normal action, but Sister Feng and several other sisters in the studio suddenly became excited, their fingers were already leaving afterimages on their phones.
Many of them knew that Shen Ruyin was able to become Mu Yun's disciple because Ke Xue provided the money and effort.
Although both Shen Ruyin and Ke Xue explained that Ke Xue was Shen Ruyin's boss, in their opinion, what other boss could do what Ke Xue did, providing money and resources, calling to check on her from time to time, buying her snacks, and frequently flying over to visit her?
Everyone saw him as Shen Ruyin's future boyfriend.
The reason I say it's the future is because I discovered that while their relationship is indeed good, it doesn't cross any lines.
Shen Ruyin once asked Sister Feng why she still shipped Ke Xue even though everyone knew there was no longer any ambiguity between them.
Sister Feng, on the other hand, declared righteously that they were a good couple, and that it was a pure love story.
Shen Ruyin was filled with questions, and when she told Ke Xue, he was also completely baffled.
In the end, they both decided that if they couldn't figure it out, they should just let it be and let nature take its course.
Since they are all members of the Special Affairs Bureau, they simply cannot have the same strong sense of hierarchy as ordinary bosses and employees.
Because of this, they share certain secrets and have a tacit understanding.
This is something that cannot be told to outsiders, let alone explained; they must bear the consequences themselves.
Anyway, Shen Ruyin is still young and hasn't had enough fun, while Ke Xue has no intention of following his family's wishes and marrying a rich girl of equal social standing.
Using each other as shields is acceptable.
After entering, Ke Xue greeted the people from Muyun Studio before looking at Shen Ruyin.
After greeting everyone, amidst their anticipation, Ke Xue blurted out, "Yin Yin, where is that handsome guy you mentioned? I want to compare our looks."
Sister Feng and a few others from Ke Xue's team gasped almost simultaneously, their faces breaking into maternal smiles.
Shen Ruyin ignored them and pointed to Number 1, who had just come out of the inner room behind Ke Xue: "Turn around."
Ke Xueyi turned his head, cleared his throat, straightened his clothes, and headed towards No. 1, or rather, the owner of the guesthouse, Mr. Wei.
Ke Xue's assistant, who was skilled in negotiation, followed directly, while the other team members who came along sat down near the people from Mu Yun Studio, or those with good relationships simply blended in.
Shen Ruyin remained seated in her own place, resolutely refusing to move over.
She had tried to approach them before, but when she did, she was embarrassed to find that they were discussing the points of chemistry between her and Ke Xue, and their unique characteristics, so she quickly slipped away.
She had just come to the guesthouse with her master and the others when Ke Xue arrived with his group. It would be strange if the two groups didn't chat together.
Going closer would only make her wonder if they were really shipping her, or the pure love warrior they imagined.
Therefore, it's better to let it go and not let it affect your mood.
However, to be fair, if the protagonist isn't yourself, and you only look at the settings they've come up with—a beautiful and intelligent female college student voice actress x a puppy-like, rich, and innocent male streamer—it's actually quite a ship.
After a while, Ke Xue returned dejectedly, and his assistant kept giving Shen Ruyin meaningful glances behind his back.
Shen Ruyin received the hint, but she didn't really want to pay attention to Ke Xue, who was putting on a great acting show at the moment.
After all, given his status as Number 1, both Ke Xue and Shen Ruyin were prepared to be rejected by him.
The disappointment that Ke Xue is showing now can only be attributed to his significant improvement in acting skills.
"Yinyin," Shen Ruyin didn't want to pay attention, but Ke Xue wouldn't let her go. He came over eagerly and looked at her with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, which were wet with tears.
"He refused. How could he refuse?"
“It’s perfectly normal to refuse,” Shen Ruyin said, as Sister Feng was going to find her friend. She moved aside to make room for her. “He’s so handsome, can’t he have the confidence to be a handsome guy?”
“You’re right,” Ke Xue said, sitting down next to her. “I won’t give up. I’ll definitely get his consent. When that happens, I’ll invite the best costume and prop team to make him look like the most handsome guesthouse owner.”
“That will definitely become a viral sensation,” Shen Ruyin echoed him, though she knew the truth in her heart.
The whole "explosive popularity" thing is just a prelude, a way to buy time. Once everyone who shouldn't be here has left, the special agents from the Special Affairs Bureau can naturally make their appearance.
As for obtaining Mr. Wei's consent?
As a vengeful ghost, he'd be too busy hiding himself to avoid being discovered by the Special Affairs Bureau. It would be strange if he agreed to do a live stream with Ke Xue.
Of course, even if Ke Xue stayed here for another month or two, he still wouldn't succeed.
After finishing his meal, Ke Xue looked at the people he had brought and deliberately said, "Boss Wei, how many rooms do you have left? Please open a few for us."
"Let's... have a private room for each person."
"I'm sorry," said Mr. Wei without looking up, "our guesthouse is quite small, and we only have one very small room left."
"If you need accommodation, turn left after you go out. There is a large hotel there, and there should be plenty of accommodations that meet your requirements."
"I see," Ke Xue thought he would say that there were no rooms left, but now he still has objections, which is just as good.
“Give me the last room,” Ke Xue said, then looked at his team members. “You guys drive straight to the hotel later, get the bill ready, and I’ll cover all the expenses.”
Ke Xue's team naturally had no objections.
Although this trip was a bit rushed, it was a business trip, we could stay in a big hotel, and we didn't have to stay with the boss. Before the boss finalized the plans, we could also take the opportunity to explore the surrounding area. How great was that?
When Boss Wei heard that he wanted to stay, he looked up and gave him a deep look, then picked up his phone and looked at it, showing an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry, I just received a message from my brother. His friend, who was supposed to come tomorrow, is arriving today."
"This is the room he booked, so we can't give it to you."
"Ah," Ke Xue deliberately dragged out the sound, "what a coincidence."
"Yinyin, Teacher Muyun, how many days are you here for team building?"
Shen Ruyin remained silent, while Mu Yun replied, "Three days."
“Three days,” Ke Xue’s eyes lit up. “Then I’ll come and have breakfast with you every day for the next few days?”
Ke Xue's true intentions were not what they seemed, but everyone present had their own interpretation.
Shen Ruyin, accustomed to ignoring the various gazes directed at her, said naturally, "We have other plans. After breakfast, we're going to go out and explore the nearby scenic spots. Boss, are you sure you can manage?"
“I can do it, why can’t I?” Ke Xue said stubbornly. “It’s just getting up early every day and going out. I can definitely do it.”
Shen Ruyin raised an eyebrow. Look at this girl, who was later taught by those acting teachers. She's so adept at it now, without any trace of her previous poor acting skills.
Ke Xue was "enraged" by her gaze and emphasized, "Don't underestimate me, I can definitely get up."
“Mmm, you can do it,” Shen Ruyin yawned. “So shouldn’t you go back and rest now? We’re getting up at six tomorrow.”
"Then I'll be going now," Ke Xue said, following her lead. "You guys should get some rest too. Just you wait and see."
"Pfft," for some reason, the group where Sister Feng was suddenly burst out laughing.
When Ke Xue looked over, they quickly waved their hands and said, "We were just chatting and we happened to talk about a very interesting plot."
Ke Xue naively believed it and went out with his men.
Only then did Sister Feng sit down with the girls from Muyun Studio.
"Yinyin, has President Ke always been like this?"
Shen Ruyin pretended not to know what they meant and deliberately asked, "What do you mean?"
They described it in a low voice: "It's just... a bit naive, like a humanized husky."
simple……
Shen Ruyin had reason to suspect that what they really meant was stupidity.
But no matter which word it is, Shen Ruyin doesn't think it can be applied to Ke Xue.
After all, Ke Xue is not stupid at all; in fact, he is smarter than anyone else.
He just grew up in wealth, so he doesn't dwell on things that can be solved with money, and he doesn't take trivial matters to heart, which makes him seem not to be very shrewd.
But he didn't realize that after so many years as a live streamer, he had encountered countless monsters and scoundrels.
He managed to retain his staff and even rose from a streamer with connections to become one of the top streamers on the platform.
Now when he plays PK (player versus player) matches, a serious game can generate hundreds of thousands or even millions in revenue, while a casual game can easily bring in tens of thousands. And these numbers aren't even in Tomato Coins.
He's simple-minded.
It's just that his outward appearance allows him to earn more profit.
As the saying goes, when you're out in the world, you define your own identity.
And coincidentally, Ke Xue just likes to label himself as an innocent and pure-hearted rich second-generation.
So at this moment, Shen Ruyin corrected them with a serious expression: "My boss is very smart, not stupid at all."
Very well, after those words were spoken, the people opposite bumped into each other and tugged at each other, their faces saying "you know what I mean," and they showed bright smiles.
Without needing to distinguish it further, Shen Ruyin knew that this expression was called "kdl".
These days, nobody believes you when you tell the truth.
Seeing this, Mu Yun beckoned Shen Ruyin to his side, then said to Sister Feng and the others, "Don't bully Yinyin."
Sister Feng said, "I swear to God, Brother Mu, we were just talking normally. We didn't bully her at all. I'm going to call my sister-in-law to complain right now."
Mu Yun had no choice but to ignore them and turn to Shen Ruyin, saying, "Leave early tomorrow, but don't forget to practice your basic skills."
"When it comes to basic skills, if you don't practice them for a day, only you will know it, but if you don't practice them for three or five days, then no one else will know it."
Shen Ruyin immediately nodded: "Don't worry, Master, I definitely won't fall behind in my studies."
"Alright, go back and get some rest," Mu Yun said. "Don't stay up too late on your phone tonight."
“Okay,” Shen Ruyin agreed obediently, then said goodbye to the others and went back to her room to play by herself.
Perhaps because Boss Wei and Qi Chengyun had both come during the day, they didn't suddenly rush into Shen Ruyin's room that night and wake her up.
Shen Ruyin slept well all night and got up more than half an hour early.
She tidied herself up quietly and then went out.
Not far from the guesthouse, there was a pavilion where she could practice her basic skills without disturbing anyone, so she decided to go there.
When Shen Ruyin came downstairs, Boss Wei was already sitting behind the counter.
Moreover, this Mr. Wei wasn't just sitting there casually. From the angle from which Shen Ruyin came downstairs, coupled with the slightly yellowish light of the guesthouse, it created a hazy effect, making the beauty appear more and more ethereal the more you looked at her.
Shen Ruyin had no idea what he was planning. She paused for a moment, admired the scene with restraint, and then walked away.
Her reaction surprised Mr. Wei a little, but he didn't stop her from leaving.
Qi Chengyun's figure emerged from behind Boss Wei: "Brother, are you sure she's a lecherous woman?"
“Of course,” said Mr. Wei, “it was somewhat unexpected that she could just go out like that.”
“But I think,” Qi Chengyun said, “that’s more in line with the image of her that Xiaoman used to tell me about.”
Boss Wei glanced at him: "Then try repeating it again?"
"Do you think the person you're talking about is a human being, or a saint?"
"She was young and didn't understand when she was younger, but now that she's grown up, she knows what it means to like someone, so we can't look at her with old eyes anymore."
Qi Chengyun nodded, indicating that he believed her: "But brother, what impact will it have if she falls in love with you or not?"
"Isn't it said that Ke Xuecai is connected to the Special Affairs Bureau? Why don't we just target him and arrest him?"
"Isn't it just so happens that he asked you to do a live stream with him?"
Boss Wei retorted, "With so much protective gear on Ke Xue, are you planning to get injured again?"
“I don’t think he has any spiritual power at all, except for his protective magic treasure. He can’t pass the Special Affairs Bureau’s assessment at all. At most, he’ll be an unofficial staff member. Even if we arrest him now, what use will it be? It will only alert the Special Affairs Bureau and let them find us.”
Boss Wei tapped the table lightly.
"If we can control the people he likes and use them for our own purposes, we will have another channel to know about the activities on the periphery of the Special Affairs Bureau, which will also reduce the possibility of our real insiders being exposed."
"All we need to do is show up occasionally and say a few ambiguous words."
"Just like Zhao Manrou back then, wasn't she first infatuated with your looks, and then you coaxed her into believing whatever she said, even forgetting who she was?"
“Brother,” Qi Chengyun said, “Xiaoman is different.”
“Different?” Boss Wei leaned back. “You turned Zhao Manrou into a vengeful ghost and made her stand completely with us. That’s when she really became different.”
"Otherwise, in my eyes she would be no different from any of the other women you seduced before."
