Love Apartment: The All-Around Comedian

Lu Zhanbo chimed in, "I need to get to know them too. The relationships are too complicated; I'm completely confused."

Su Mingyang smiled and said, "To be honest, I'd like to get to know you too."

"What's the meaning"

Hu Yifei and Lu Zhanbo exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.

"I made all of this up."

Su Mingyang was speechless.

"Damn, I knew it! How could such a family exist? It's so melodramatic!"

Hu Yifei suddenly realized, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"that is...."

Lu Zhanbo agreed.

Su Mingyang raised an eyebrow: "You can't say that. The world is a big place, and anything is possible. It's not impossible for a family like this to exist. After all, reality is more bizarre than TV dramas and novels."

"Uh, okay."

Hu Yifei and the other person nodded.

Dear readers, what are your thoughts on how to handle this problem? Haha.

Chapter 81 Teacher Zeng is going to be famous!

The second morning.

Su Mingyang, Hu Yifei, and Lu Zhanbo were having breakfast together.

Lin Wanyu rubbed her sleepy eyes and came out of the room.

Su Mingyang asked with concern, "Wanyu, why didn't you sleep a little longer? You were working so late yesterday."

"I need to get up early to farm in-game currency!"

Lin Wanyu smiled and said something before going into the bathroom to wash up.

Hu Yifei glanced at Su Mingyang and teased, "Look at you, what have you done to Wanyu?"

Su Mingyang was both amused and exasperated: "When did I exploit Wanyu? It was Wanyu's own choice; I didn't force her to spend a certain amount..."

That's what he said, but he thought he should talk to Lin Wanyu later and tell her not to be so diligent.

Just then, Zeng Xiaoxian came running over from next door with a beaming smile, his cheeky grin preceding his arrival—"Hahaha, hiccup!"

Su Mingyang and the other two exchanged glances, thinking that Zeng Xiaoxian had gone mad so early in the morning. Seeing that the three remained silent, Zeng Xiaoxian raised an eyebrow and said, "Don't you want to ask me why I'm so happy?"

Hu Yifei retorted habitually, "I don't want to."

"Well."

Zeng Xiaoxian's smile froze on his face. He composed himself and grinned, "I have some good news to tell you all. Guess what it is?"

Su Mingyang complained, "Is this the usual routine for our Love Apartment?"

"What's the meaning"

Zeng Xiaoxian asked.

"Last time, Guan Gu asked us to guess who called him, and Zi Qiao asked us to guess who he met on the subway. Now, Teacher Zeng, what good news are you asking us to guess? How are we supposed to guess?"

Hu Yifei chimed in, "Well... we're not guessing anymore, you can tell us or not, it's up to you."

Lu Zhanbo chimed in, "It's pointless to keep guessing."

Zeng Xiaoxian was surprised by the lack of support from the trio, a black line appearing on his forehead. He then laughed and said, "Okay, then I won't guess anymore. My good news is that my show's listenership last night doubled compared to usual."

Su Mingyang complimented, "That's great, Teacher Zeng, you're going to be famous!"

Thank you, I hope so.

Zeng Xiaoxian waved his hand, his face beaming with a smile as sweet as honey.

Hu Yifei looked up and casually asked, "What's my ranking in your station now?"

"Hehe, second place!"

Zeng Xiaoxian raised an eyebrow, smiled, and made a peace sign.

Su Mingyang was shocked: "Wow, Teacher Zeng, you're so awesome!"

He remembered that Zeng Xiaoxian was at the bottom of the rankings on the show, but suddenly jumped to second place. Did he get a protagonist's halo? "Mingyang, you believe his nonsense!"

Hu Yifei rolled her eyes and looked at Zeng Xiaoxian, saying, "Zeng Xiaoxian, stop bragging. How could you possibly be second? We listened to your show last night, and it was awful!"

"What?! Yifei, you actually overheard this last night?"

Zeng Xiaoxian was surprised but also a little smug. He knew Hu Yifei for so long, and she had only listened to his show once, later swearing she would never listen again. Lu Zhanbo stabbed him in the back: "She listened because of Wanyu."

""

Zeng Xiaoxian's lips twitched slightly.

Su Mingyang asked with some doubt, "Teacher Zeng, are you really second best?"

It's true.

Zeng Xiaoxian affirmed, then added, "Second to last."

"Pfft, hahaha!!!"

Su Mingyang and the other two were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

After all that, it turns out we're second to last! Hu Yifei laughed until tears streamed down her face: "Second to last, and you're getting all excited! Zeng Xiaoxian, are you sure you're not joking? What good will it do you to make us laugh to death?"

"So what if I'm second to last? It's a huge improvement for me, okay?"

Zeng Xiaoxian retorted, "You know, I was ranked last in the station for several years! I'm already very satisfied that I suddenly rose to second to last last last last night!"

His words caused Su Mingyang and the other two to laugh even louder.

Hearing the three men's unrestrained and arrogant laughter, Zeng Xiaoxian's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

He angrily retorted, "I'm so disappointed in you all! As friends, can't you at least offer me some encouragement?"

At this moment, Lin Wanyu came out of the bathroom and asked in surprise, "Mingyang, Feifei, Zhanbo, what's making you so happy?"

Su Mingyang realized he had gone a bit too far, waved to Hu Yifei and Lu Zhanbo to stop laughing, and said seriously, "Uh, Teacher Zeng, actually we're just happy for you."

"Mingyang, don't lie to me. You guys were clearly... mocking me just now."

Zeng Xiaoxian raised his head with a smug look on his face.

"It's true, you can ask Wanyu if you don't believe me."

As Su Mingyang spoke, he winked at Lin Wanyu.

"Well."

Lin Wanyu immediately understood and smiled, "That's right, Teacher Zeng, I could tell. Mingyang and the others are genuinely happy for you."

"Really"

Zeng Xiaoxian's expression softened considerably.

"Uh-huh."

Hu Yifei and Lu Zhanbo nodded.

"Haha, I knew it!"

Zeng Xiaoxian readily accepted the offer, a smile returning to his face. He sat down, ladled out a bowl of noodles with soybean paste made by Su Mingyang, and said while eating, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Wanyu for the sudden increase in my show's listenership."

"I"

Lin Wanyu, who was slurping noodles, paused for a moment and looked up at Zeng Xiaoxian.

Zeng Xiaoxian nodded: "Yes, Wanyu, you answered the first call very well. That guy's friends and family were such a dramatic story! It was very topical, which is why so many people tuned in. There are even listeners discussing it on my show's forum."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yifei, Lu Zhanbo, and Lin Wanyu all looked at Su Mingyang with strange expressions.

"Um"

Zeng Xiaoxian noticed the three people's gazes and asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why are you all looking at Mingyang?"

Su Mingyang curled his lip: "Teacher Zeng, the guy you're talking about is me!"

"!!!"

Zeng Xiaoxian choked on his noodles, quickly drank some water, and stared wide-eyed in disbelief, saying, "The first phone call last night was from Mingyang. Your voice didn't sound like him at all!"

Lin Wanyu nodded: "Yes, Teacher Zeng, it was Mingyang who called, so you should thank Mingyang, not me."

"Uh"

Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Su Mingyang, and for a moment... he didn't know what to say, only feeling extremely awkward.

Yesterday, Su Mingyang's question left him speechless for quite a while; at that moment, he even wanted to strangle him through the phone line.

He never expected that this issue would boost his show's listenership, breaking its long-standing record of being at the bottom.

So expressing gratitude is completely hindsight...

Su Mingyang noticed Zeng Xiaoxian's hesitation and casually said, "What's with the thanks? I was just making a joke at the time, I didn't think that much about it."
