Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 364: Small branches bear fruit

Zhao Yun's sudden arrival was a bucket of cold water for Lin Mo, making his relaxed mood tense up again.

That's right, Zhao Yun was invited by Miss Yuan. Although this is a studio opened by a woman from Sichuan, the location was provided by Miss Yuan, and she will play an important role in attracting advertisers in the future.

It's fair to say that if the account hadn't been in Chuanmei's hands, she would have run the studio.

Although it looks similar to Lin Mo and Liu Ruyan's pattern, there are still some differences between the two.

At least on his side, all the restaurant's profits belong to Lin Mo, while on Chuan Mei's side, Miss Yuan gets a cut of the advertising resources she brings in, and the percentage should be quite large. So the two of them will split it at least 50/50.

Although Miss Yuan gets a larger share, even more than Chuan Mei, Chuan Mei ultimately benefits from the collaboration. With Miss Yuan by his side, he won't lack advertisers, making monetization easier and earning more money.

Many self-made million-follower online influencers don't actually earn as much as people imagine, mainly because they don't receive as many advertising deals.

The biggest advantage of joining a studio is that some studio owners have access to more resources.

Therefore, this studio can at least be considered a collaboration between Miss Yuan and Chuan Mei, or more accurately, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was opened by Miss Yuan.

Since it's Miss Yuan's studio, of course she would invite her cousin Zhao Yun. After all, she only has a few acquaintances here, so how could she not invite them?

"What? Is this matter a bit serious?" Liu Ruyan pulled up a chair for Zhao Yun and asked.

Zhao Yun sat down next to Liu Ruyan, took the tableware handed over by Miss Yuan, and said, "It's not serious. First, there's no information about him online yet, and second, we're in China, not abroad, so our safety is quite guaranteed."

However, we can't be completely indifferent. We didn't expect the video to generate such a huge response, leading to this situation.

The current situation is that the message did indeed come from overseas, but no reward was offered on any website; in short, it was probably just a verbal message.

The reward is high enough that no one might have paid attention before, but that may not be the case now. If someone is interested, they could even use special technology to first identify Li Shiya's true identity and then slowly investigate the identity of "Brother Shou".

Furthermore, the address of Li Shiya's ID has already been exposed; it's near Jiangning University Town, which isn't a secret, only the exact address is unknown.

If some people really have such intentions, after a while, some strangers should start staking out this area.

Upon hearing this, the people present finally straightened their attitude, after all, this involved their own safety.

"Old Mo is in danger, policewoman, what should we do?" Director Wang said in a panic as he realized what was happening.

Zhao Yun: [Clenches her teeth and makes a fist]

Sichuan Girl: "Don't worry about Lao Mo for now. I feel like I'm in more danger than him. What, have I become the first line of defense?"

The rest:
You could say that Director Wang is a bit dim-witted and looks like a human, he really dares to say anything. Liu Ruyan lowered her head, covered her mouth, and chuckled, trying not to make a sound.

Meanwhile, Wang Jing, the class monitor, pinched Wang Chu hard under the table and gestured to him with her eyes to shut up.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Director Wang didn't understand why everyone was reacting this way.

But through Wang Jing's eyes, he also realized that he might have said something wrong.

"Ahem, Yunyun, so you're saying we still need to be careful about this, right?" Liu Ruyan asked.

Zhao Yun nodded with a grim expression: "But you don't need to worry. Our bureau has also noticed what happened online. It's because of us that he's in the spotlight again. Our bureau even held a meeting this afternoon and we have a solution."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo quickly asked, "What method? Is it safe?" "Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be safe. Our Director Liu said that since you live near the university town and have a place to stay, we will send some people to set up a food street near our community and check if any suspicious people are passing by."

"Plus, I live in your building, and given the security situation in our country, it's practically foolproof. But you should keep this to yourselves and not tell anyone else," Zhao Yun said as she started eating.

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan nodded, thinking it was indeed a good idea. Lin Mo, however, asked somewhat uncertainly, "Wouldn't this be a bit too troublesome?"

He felt a little embarrassed about wasting so much police resources, after all, he felt that he was just an ordinary person and it was really inappropriate to make such a big fuss.

"Trouble? If something happens to you, we'll be in even more trouble. In China, only the police will come looking for you. But if you're taken abroad, no police or underworld organization will sleep soundly. They'll all be looking for you. Rather than that, we might as well strengthen our security here," Zhao Yun said, rolling her eyes at him.

Although netizens were making a lot of noise, most of it was just speculation, but she and her colleagues in the bureau had personally witnessed Lin Mo's abilities.

Not to mention that his sketches alone could help the police station solve cases, she personally witnessed the US dollars drawn at the scene pass through the money detector.

It's fair to say that if Lin Mo were to go astray in China, he alone would be responsible for a massive amount of counterfeit money.

If someone were to take him abroad, whoever gets him would essentially have a money-printing machine. After all, online payments aren't as widespread overseas as they are in China, and his US dollars, which can even pass through banknote detectors, would be a disaster.

Hearing this, Lin Mo awkwardly shut his mouth, as saying anything more would seem like he was being hypocritical after getting a good deal.

"Cousin, could that food street be set up in front of my studio? I have space there, and it won't affect traffic," Miss Yuan said, her eyes lighting up at the news.

Ever since Liu Ruyan casually mentioned it last time, she had been thinking about how to revitalize her family's shops. Now that she had the opportunity, of course she wanted to give it a try.

"That's not certain. We'll have to see what the bureau says then," Zhao Yun shook her head and didn't agree.

Miss Yuan slammed her hand on the table: "Since we're going to set up a food street, we definitely need stalls. I'll sponsor the food carts your bureau uses. Any profits you make are yours, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun's eyes lit up: "That's negotiable."

Lin Mo and Liu Ruyan exchanged a glance, both feeling that Miss Yuan had finally come to her senses. Liu Ruyan, in particular, was surprised that Yuan Meng could apply what she had learned to other situations.

The topic lingered for a while before returning to the Sichuan girl and Miss Yuan's studio, since they were the main focus today.

With the sudden surge in traffic and popularity these past two days, Chuanmei's account has gained a lot of followers, now reaching 330 million. This speed is even faster than the rate at which Wangzai Xiaoqiao lost followers.

In other words, Lin Mo has not shown his face yet; otherwise, given his current popularity, he would be trending in no time.

After dinner, Director Wang drove the Sichuan girl's Cadillac and took the two female students, including the class monitor, back to their dormitory. Liu Ruyan and the other four got into Miss Yuan's Tank 500 and returned to their neighborhood.

Inside the elevator, Zhao Yun took a deep breath and asked Liu Ruyan, "Are you staying here tonight?"

“Yes, it’s so late, it’s not safe to go back. Besides, I have my toiletries here, so it’s convenient!” Liu Ruyan said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun glanced at Lin Mo, then lowered her head. Especially after Lin Mo completely defeated her in hand-to-hand combat that day, she suddenly felt that this young man was actually quite handsome. Was she normal?

"I'm leaving my brother's matter in your hands!" Liu Ruyan said with a smile, patting Lin Mo on the shoulder as the elevator arrived.

Lin Mo stumbled after being slapped by Liu Ruyan, and casually patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

The next second, Lin Mo clearly saw Zhao Yun, whose slender branches were laden with fruit, suddenly sink down.

Zhao Yun: ? ? ?
