After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 300 Adoption Again
[What did I say before? I might meet the teacher who taught Chaoyu, and look, we're about to meet! Call me a prophet!]

Since this Teacher Wang taught both Chao Yu and Lin An, it's possible that Chao Yu and Lin An actually met when they were children.

[It's been so long, and Chao Yu only studied here for a short time, so it's normal that he's completely forgotten about it.]

But it really is a coincidence.

[I just heard Chao Yu mention her brother, and it suddenly reminded me that I still have a screenshot of him from the second live stream. When can I see him again?]

[For those who started watching from episode 3 and haven't seen episode 2 yet, I'd like to ask: Is her brother handsome?]

I don't think it's simply a matter of being handsome. Rather, when he appears, he exudes the aura of a top-tier aristocratic heir. Good looks are merely the least significant advantage.

This description makes me want to see what it looks like too.

[The edited version of the second episode inexplicably cut out the footage of the brother's video call, perhaps because he didn't want it shown. Only a few screenshots are available online. To see the video, the production team will have to do another live video call.]

[It seems like Chao Yu's older brother spoils her a lot; he even arranged her school. Chao Yu often mentions her older brother, but never her parents or other family members.]

I've heard that Qingli Entertainment, a top-tier company in the industry, was originally founded for our Chaoyu.

[A privileged family background, a doting older brother, and another day of sitting under a lemon tree, munching on lemons!]

Upon hearing Yuan Chaoyu mention her brother, Jiang Hanying immediately thought of the man sitting opposite her at the casting table when she was invited to audition at Qingli Entertainment some time ago.

I feel an inexplicable aversion and disgust!

There aren't many people who give her such a negative impression on their first meeting. At least in this world, Yuan Qingzhuo is the first!
There isn't a second one yet!
Seeing the way Yuan Chaoyu couldn't help but smile when he mentioned his brother, she immediately lost interest in asking any more questions.

Fortunately, the person they were looking for arrived shortly afterward.

The first person to enter was a young woman. When she saw Yuan Chaoyu and Jiang Hanying waiting in the reception room, she visibly became excited.

Her voice sounded a little nervous as she spoke, "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Xiaojun".

Upon hearing the name Yuan Chaoyu, Tang Xiaojun was overjoyed. "You...you still remember me?"

Actually, I just glanced at it while looking at the computer screen.

However, that was clearly not the right way to put it, and Yuan Chaoyu nodded slightly.

Anyway, remembering it now is still considered remembering it.

Seeing her nod, Tang Xiaojun continued to talk: "I remember my seat was right behind yours. When our homeroom teacher brought you into the classroom, I was stunned. When my mom came to pick me up, she saw you and said that you would definitely be a big star when you grew up. And it really came true. I'm a fan of yours now."

Yuan Chaoyu listened to her with a smile, "We came here mainly to ask you about someone, Lin An. We were probably in the same grade back then, but we're not sure if we were in the same class. Do you remember this person?"

“Lin An,” Tang Xiaojun thought for a moment, then shook her head apologetically, “I really don’t remember that name. We’re probably not in the same class. I was much more introverted back then than I am now, and I basically only knew classmates from my own class. I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”

"It's alright, after all, so much time has passed."

"Wait, let me call my boyfriend and ask him again. He went to this elementary school too, a year ahead of us. He had quite a lot of connections at school, you know what I mean."

[Are you the campus bully?]

[I guess it's the kind where they recruit a large group of younger students in the same grade. There were similar people in my school when I was in school.]

Yuan Chaoyu nodded knowingly: "Then I'll trouble you."

Tang Xiaojun said "No trouble at all," and immediately took out her phone to dial her boyfriend's number.

Once the call connected, Tang Xiaojun asked directly, "Do you remember if there was a student named Lin An when we were in elementary school? He was a grade below you but in the same grade as me."

"It's been so many years, why are you suddenly asking this?" "Should I ask you or you ask me? If you have a question, keep it to yourself and think about it carefully first."

It seems the former campus bully has finally fallen to a junior girl!

[Once: Gathering friends and acquaintances; now: Being obsequious and subservient!]

"Let me think about it. It's been so long that I really can't remember it right now."

"If you can't remember, ask your former underlings who you're still in contact with. Call me back as soon as you find them, understand?"

"I know, I know."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Xiaojun's tone changed again, "He's still in contact with several of his elementary school classmates, and some of them might still remember him."

Yuan Chaoyu nodded to her, "That would be perfect."

Tang Xiaojun was about to ask again why they suddenly came looking for Lin An when the door to the reception room was pushed open from the outside.

An elderly woman with gray hair and silver-rimmed glasses walked in. Although her face was covered in wrinkles, her back was straight, which did not diminish her elegant and intellectual demeanor.

The vice principal, who was sitting on the sofa, quickly stood up to greet the newcomer.

Although he is the vice principal, he has only been working at the school for less than three years.

Although the newly arrived Teacher Wang is just a teacher, he is one of the most senior teachers in their school. He has worked diligently in the teaching profession for most of his life, and he deserves respect.

"Teacher Wong."

This time, apart from Jiang Hanying, the other four people in the reception room all shouted at the newcomer.

Teacher Wang adjusted his glasses and glanced at the people standing in front of him, finally settling on Yuan Chaoyu and Jiang Hanying.

"You must be Chao Yu."

Yuan Chaoyu was taken aback, and his face showed some emotion. "Teacher Wang still remembers me."

Compared to other students, she hadn't even been in school for a full year, and given that the other person was probably no longer a fan of celebrities at that age, she thought the other person had long forgotten about her.

Teacher Wang smiled and said, "How could I not remember? I remember all the students I've taught, and you are no exception. You were very beautiful when you were little, and you've become even more beautiful as you've grown up. I also remember how quickly and accurately you could recite poems and texts, and how well you remembered them. I praised you a lot back then."

"You have a really good memory."

"Tell me, what really happened this time?"

“Teacher Wang, we are currently investigating someone, Lin An,” Yuan Chaoyu said, handing over the documents he had just printed. “Do you remember this student?”

“Lin An, let me think. I remember him. He was thin and small, almost a head shorter than other children his age. I always put him at the front when seating arrangements were made. His grades were inconsistent, though. I even visited his home to find out that his parents were busy working and rarely home. He lived with a nanny. A neighbor who lived nearby told me that he seemed to be adopted.” Teacher Wang sighed with some regret. “He was actually quite smart.”

"adoption?"

Jiang Hanying and Yuan Chaoyu exchanged a glance subconsciously.

They can't stand the word 'adoption' anymore!

Moreover, this crucial information was not found in the data obtained from the previous investigation.

Was it just that the neighbor made up something based on his own observations and guesses, or was the information they found incorrect?

Especially since Lin An's parents are both deceased, there's no way to verify the information now.

"Teacher Wang, do you still remember the address of the home visit?"
