Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Was Chapter 279 good? I chose it.
The live stream is coming to an end. Although Lin Shi has gained some popularity, he hasn't yet achieved mainstream success.

The live stream has been going on for too long, and the number of viewers has been steadily decreasing. Now, the number of viewers is basically only a few thousand.

Lin Shi went out and called to Qin Zhao, "My fans want to see you, do you want to say hello to them?"

Qin Zhao looked at him and said calmly, "Why are your fans looking at me?"

Lin Shi: "Maybe he wants to praise me through you."

"..."

Qin Zhao, wearing a mask, greeted them.

The comments section suddenly became lively—

"Hello, little sister, I'm your sister-in-law."

"Don't criticize this, she's a real siscon."

"My sister is so beautiful."

"Little sister, has your brother ever been in a relationship?"

The comments section was flooded with messages so quickly that Qin Zhao could only see his sister X99.

She only managed to find one question: "What kind of person does the younger sister think her older brother is?"

Qin Zhao read out the question and replied, "He may be a little slow at times and prone to impulsiveness, but he's not a bad person at heart."

Lin Shi, who was standing nearby, clicked his tongue and tugged at her, saying, "How dare you talk like that?"

Qin Zhao looked at him and said, "Speak with your mouth."

"..."

The comments section is bursting with laughter:

"Where did this adorable creature come from?"

"Lin Shiyi, you're hopeless. Your sister's certification is a bit too much."

Qin Zhao slowly spoke: "He's also a bit narcissistic."

She paused for a moment: "Extremely narcissistic."

Lin Shi laughed: "I'm handsome and I know it."

Qin Zhao: "It will inexplicably ignite."

The comments section read: "Haha, two years later, Lin Shiyi is truly a passionate guy."

Qin Zhao changed the subject: "But actually, he's very simple-minded. He's determined to do what he loves. He often practices dancing until midnight, and when he says he's on a diet, he absolutely refuses to eat anything high in calories."

"He loves singing and dancing, and he also loves the stage."

“I feel very proud every time I see your support, and I will take pictures and post them in the group to show off.”

Qin Zhao: "My brother may have many flaws, and his crying isn't very pleasant either. Thank you for your understanding."

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Even my own sister said his crying was awful."

"Lin Shi's face and his crying voice are like two different dimensions."

Lin Shi chuckled. He thought Qin Zhao was being a bit sentimental in the first half, but he didn't expect her to pull this on later.

He glanced sideways at Qin Zhao: "Are you sent by the haters?"

Lin Shih's fans were both touched and amused.

From then on, Lin Shiyi's fans spread a saying: "Our Lin Shiyi may be a bit slow, but he's not a bad person at heart."

Lin Shi finished filming and went overseas again just two days later.

Qin Zhao is extremely busy every day, doing experiments and writing papers. On top of that, she also runs a coffee shop.

Although there is a store manager and various management personnel, she also checks on the store's operations every two weeks.

The original shop was just a normal mid-to-high-end coffee shop, but after thinking about it, she changed the original decoration and turned it into a trendy online store.

The coffee is also mainly served in mini versions.

Once the concept was launched, coupled with the nice decor, the stylish and creative cup designs that looked great in photos, it quickly gained some recognition.

The selection of desserts was limited, but they were all very beautiful. The names were also quite interesting; for example, the green bamboo cake was called "Deep Forest," and the stone-shaped chocolate layer cake was called "Stone Encounter."

Monthly sales also increased by 20%.

She sent the photo to Shen Yanci: "Is it pretty?"

Shen Yanci: "It looks pretty good."

"The cake I helped design."

"His name is Iwami."

Shen Yanci: "Are you implying something to me?"

“No hints.” Qin Zhao’s eyes held a hint of a smile. “What are you thinking?” “The name Iwami isn’t good.”

Shen Yanci: "I prefer to see you tomorrow."

Qin Zhao: "Are you going back to your country tomorrow?"

Shen Yanci: "What are you thinking about? I meant the name."

"..."

The release of clips showing Lin Shi and Qin Zhao interacting, coupled with his recent popularity, has been quite a good start.

Lin Shi received an invitation to participate in a home-based observation variety show.

The show has decent national recognition, and after evaluating it, Yang Ming told Lin Shi that he would take on the script.

Lin Shi casually said, "Okay."

They film promotional material regularly, so they're used to it.

Yang Ming casually mentioned, "Qin Zhao will be participating in this program as well."

"Qin Zhao is going to participate?" Lin Shi doubted his ears.

Yang Ming: "The market feedback for her last live broadcast and behind-the-scenes footage was pretty good, so the production team wanted to capitalize on the buzz."

"This show has lucrative investors behind it. From what I heard, they're treating this as a trial run. If you perform well, you might get a role in their new movie project."

Lin Shi refused without hesitation: "Qin Zhao will not debut."

Yang Mingzhen saw this as an opportunity, but Lin Shi dismissed it: "Do I need her to do my job? Besides, I'm already grateful my parents didn't kill me when I debuted. If you drag her in, are you planning to collect a penalty for breach of contract and retire?"

Unable to dissuade him, Yang Ming decided to try approaching Qin Zhao. Lin Shi found out and they had a huge argument.

The two remained at odds for two days.

Later, Yang Ming didn't want to miss out on this popularity, so he applied for a mini-variety show opportunity where Qin Zhao wouldn't have to show his face.

Lin Shi's initial refusal led him down several more detours, and now he has compromised.

Qin Zhao knew they had been making a fuss these past two days, but since she wouldn't be showing her face and Lin Shi would still be the main character, she agreed.

Yang Ming repeatedly told Lin Shi to be a good older brother and that Qin Zhao must cooperate.

In the first episode, Lin Shi cooked for Qin Zhao.

The food was undercooked, and the fish looked like it had died with its eyes open.

She only showed half her face, but you could feel her helplessness even through the screen.

Lin Shi: "Is it delicious?"

Qin Zhao's lips twitched slightly, but he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue as Yang Ming nodded eagerly: "Delicious."

Lin Shi chuckled: "This is my first time doing this, and I didn't expect it to be so successful. Sure enough, when people are smart, they can succeed at anything."

"..."

In the second episode, the mini-variety show invited their group's captain.

Qin Zhao did not participate in the third episode.

As the weather grew colder, Shen Yanci returned to China when the show aired its second episode.

Lin Shi has been active in the country recently and finally has some free time.

Go with Qin Zhao to pick him up.

He bumped shoulders with Shen Yanci without any hesitation: "Just like me, you've gotten even more handsome."

Qin Zhao held a bouquet of flowers in his arms, watching the two of them interact.

The last time they met was in October when she went to England to see him.

He returned from an exchange project at the end of October.

They haven't seen each other for more than two months now.

Shen Yanci looked past Lin Shi and at her. She was usually happy to flirt with him online, but now that they were in person, she acted like a stranger.

He looked at the flowers in her arms: "For me?"

Qin Zhao hummed in agreement and handed him the flowers.

He looked down at the flowers, then glanced at her with his eyelids lifted.

A bouquet of Norbert pine and holly, with its red berries plump like agate, contrasts sharply with the green Norbert pine. It perfectly captures the Christmas and wintery atmosphere.

Lin Shi interrupted in his loud, carefree voice: "Is it pretty? I chose it."
