The system was set three years in advance, but the universal deities still hadn't arrived.

After hanging up Liu Miao's video call, Zeng Shen quickly arrived at the restaurant near the "Brothers and Sisters" studio, where he often went, booked a private room, and ordered food.

After that, they waited for Li Yuqing and the others to arrive.

Soon.

The door to the private room was opened by a pair of delicate hands.

Zeng Shen looked up and saw Li Yuqing, dressed in a black princess dress and black stockings, with Tongtong, dressed in white stockings, white leather pants and a white leather jacket, Xiaodi, dressed in a black cape-style outfit, and two petite lolis appearing at the door.

These two little girls are none other than...

Instead, it was his six- or seven-year-old niece, Wu Yuexin, and the 'disciple' he had tricked into coming to the martial arts school, Huang Yuxing, who would become a third-tier cursed god in the future.

They were both wearing red princess dresses, with rosy, childlike faces and big, bright, clear eyes, making them incredibly cute.

"Uncle Zeng..."

"Master Zeng..."

When Wu Yuexin and Huang Yuxing saw Zeng Shen, they immediately ran towards him and shouted.

Zeng Shen looked at the two little girls with great affection, as if they were an elder looking at his granddaughters. When they ran up to him, he naturally hugged them and said with a smile, "Oh, Xiao Xin, Xiao Xing, were you tired from filming today?"

"Not tired," Wu Yuexin shook her head and smiled, "Today I just followed behind Sister Xiaodi, constantly throwing support skills at her to deal with Sister Tongtong who has turned into a zombie queen."

"Oh," Zeng Shen nodded with a smile and looked at Huang Yuxing, "And what about you, Xiaoxing?"

"I was bitten by a zombie today, so I pretended to faint and waited for Sister Qingqing to help me find an antidote to suppress the zombie poison," Huang Yuxing said crisply.

"Haha, I see. Is filming fun?"

Zeng Shen burst into laughter.

"It's fun, even more fun than kindergarten!" the two little girls replied crisply in unison.

"Hehe." Li Yuqing heard their voices and walked over with a smile, sitting down in the chair next to him. She said, "Honey, you don't know, those two are very talented in acting. They have amazed many netizens. Many of my colleagues have tried to poach them from me, but when they found they couldn't, they went to talk to their parents."

"And then?" Zeng Shen asked curiously.

Tongtong, sitting next to Li Yuqing, said, "Their parents are not ungrateful people. They asked me privately how to refuse them. I told them that they signed a 20-year long-term contract with our studio. Unless they are willing to pay a 1 billion yuan penalty for breach of contract, they should not even think about their daughter."

"Haha, a billion-dollar penalty for breach of contract, they're probably terrified when they hear that," Zeng Shen laughed.

“Yes, that’s right,” Li Yuqing said with a smile.

Wu Yuexin said, "Uncle, we don't want to film in those studios."

“Yes, my parents told me to choose for myself. Then they told me that those people only want to use us as tools to make money, and that we will be abandoned once we fail to produce good films. Moreover, it won’t be as free as it is here with Sister Qingqing,” Huang Yuxing said, leaning against Zeng Shen.

"Haha, your parents are open-minded people."

Zeng Shen smiled and saw the waiter start serving the dishes. He then pulled out two chairs on his left and let the two little girls sit next to him to eat.

After they had eaten enough, Zeng Shen drank some cocktails and then began to ask Li Yuqing about the recent performance of the "Brotherhood Studio".

"Honey, after 'CEO Ti's Daily Dreams of Getting Rich Through His Son,' our studio has released a new 'Resident Evil Revelations' short drama, and it's gone viral again. Our fans and followers have now reached..."

As Li Yuqing spoke, her face beamed with a sense of accomplishment, her beautiful eyes radiating confidence and light, which drew Zeng Shen's gaze of pure admiration. Zeng Shen listened quietly to Li Yuqing, while Tongtong and Xiaodi added their own insights.

Finally, Li Yuqing said with some concern, "Right now, short drama studios are springing up like mushrooms after rain, and there are many studios that imitate our scripts. If Xiao Ai can't write and keep producing scripts full of explosive moments, it will be difficult for our studio to maintain its leading position for a long time."

Zeng Shen picked up his chopsticks, placed a fried shrimp in Li Yuqing's bowl, and laughed, "Haha, Xiao Ai is very good at writing scripts, so you don't have to worry about that."

“I know.” Li Yuqing nodded, then said, “Honey, I’m thinking of expanding the team and signing some popular livestreamers to promote products while the studio is doing well, so we can increase our revenue.”

"It's up to you, I don't care," Zeng Shen said with a smile, then asked with a puzzled look, "What kind of products are you planning to sell?"

Li Yuqing blinked her beautiful eyes and laughed, "Hehe, isn't my husband running a pre-cooked food project back in our hometown?"

“Ah,” Zeng Shen paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, “You want to help your husband make money too?”

"Hehe, my husband is helping me set up my studio, so I'm going to help him set up the pre-made vegetable factory in our hometown too," Li Yuqing said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Shen laughed heartily, "Alright, do you have any suitable candidates for the anchor position?"

"Not yet, we're still looking." Li Yuqing shook her head.

Zeng Shen thought for a moment and said, "The day before yesterday, I came across a group of young female streamers. They were all eighteen years old and had a Lolita-like charm. They usually worked as receptionists for Xiao Ai's channel..."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuqing immediately said, "Honey, I saw those girls you mentioned when I went to Xiao Ai's office. They're from the same country as Xiao Ai, and they're all very polite and kind. I just didn't know they were also doing live streaming. Hehe, I'll go to Xiao Ai's place tomorrow to poach some of them."

"Hehe," Tongtong laughed after hearing this, "If Xiao Ai knew that while she was helping you write the script, she also discovered that you were eyeing her receptionist, she would probably be furious."

"Ha ha…"

"Giggle..."

Everyone present couldn't help but laugh when they heard Tongtong's words, except for Li Yuqing, whose cheeks flushed slightly and who rolled her eyes at Tongtong.

After Zeng Shen finished laughing, he remembered that Liu Miao wanted to meet Li Yuqing, so he said, "Baby, do you still remember the woman who entrusted the jade to your uncle?"

"Which woman?" Li Yuqing asked in confusion, then her eyes darted around as if she remembered someone and said, "Honey, are you talking about that Liu Miao, the one who asked you for help getting a loan from the bank when the port was short of funds?"

“Yes, it’s her.” Zeng Shen nodded.

"Oh, why did my husband suddenly talk about her?" Li Yuqing asked.

“We helped her through a difficult time and even brought her business. She wants to thank us and wants to have dinner with us tomorrow,” Zeng Shen said.

“Great! We’re filming a short drama in a couple of days, and we need to go to the port to film. I can talk to her then and see if we can borrow a place to film,” Li Yuqing said.

"Haha, I think she'll be very happy." Zeng Shen laughed loudly, then felt a bit of an urge to urinate, and stood up, saying, "I'm going to the restroom."

"Master, I also need to go to the restroom," Huang Yuxing said, standing up as well.

"Let's go together." Zeng Shen reached out and took Huang Yuxing's hand, walking out the door and towards the restroom.

Just a few steps out the door, Huang Yuxing said to him in a soft, mysterious voice, "Master, I've mastered the over-the-shoulder throw. When will you teach me magic tricks, like flying?"

"what…"
