The villainous second male lead at the beginning? No! He's the white moonlight!

Ye Linyuan, who had just walked to the side to enter, didn't hear what was in front of him, but he heard Zhou Keke and Zhao Rong's conversation clearly, and his face immediately turned black with annoyance.

Putting aside the fact that Ye Linyuan isn't the kind of person who would go to great lengths for sex, Zhou Keke looks sweet and cute, but that's about it. Compared to the beauties around him, she's nowhere near as good. Where does his mother get the confidence to think that she can seduce him?

Besides, is Ye Linyuan the kind of person who's driven by lust?!

I, Ye Linyuan, am a man of impeccable morals, a model of integrity, and would never act recklessly!

At most, when being forced into a relationship, they simply don't resist...

"What's wrong with A-Yuan? Why does he look so speechless?"

Holding Ye Linyuan's arm, Ye Qingcheng, who had a ladylike demeanor, immediately noticed that Ye Linyuan's expression was off and quickly asked, afraid that her precious younger brother was angry.

Upon hearing this, Ye Linyuan smiled at Ye Qingcheng and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"It's nothing, I just accidentally overheard some really ridiculous conversation and couldn't help but laugh."

Ye Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, looking at Ye Linyuan with a puzzled expression, but ultimately gave up on asking any further questions.

"Next, please welcome our second-to-last group of guest families!"

As the host finished speaking, a few scattered claps rang out in the room, especially from Yu Chao, Chen Guangjun, and Zhao Lili. At least Zhou Keke and Zhao Shuang clapped a little, but these three didn't even give a proper response.

Are they out of their minds? Or do they have a grudge against the Ye family?

Inside the broadcast van, the chief director, Zheng Lei, couldn't sit still any longer and couldn't help but loudly complain.

"What's going on here? Are these people out of their minds? Are they trying to give Young Master Ye and Sister Qingcheng a hard time?"

Sheng Rong, who was standing to the side, was also a little confused, but he didn't take it too seriously.

"Don't worry about it. We said from the beginning that our show is unscripted. All the guests' actions are their own decisions. This situation, which is clearly targeting the Ye family, makes it seem more real, doesn't it?"

Zheng Lei nodded. Although it did seem true at first glance, this situation could easily be portrayed as class conflict!

There's an old saying that goes, "I'm afraid my brother won't have enough to eat, and I'm also afraid he'll drive a Land Rover." But the Ye family doesn't drive Land Rovers anymore; if they wanted, they could give you a spaceship to commute to get off work!

If someone with ulterior motives were to stir things up, not only would his program be canceled, but he might also completely offend the Ye family.

If the show is canceled, at worst all my hard work over the past few months will be wasted. But if I offend the Ye family, then my 40 years of life will become only 40 years...

"Don't worry, our audience is quite magnanimous and won't attack anyone over such a small matter. And the kind of thing you're worried about won't happen."

As a close friend who had struggled together for 10 years, Sheng Rong saw through his old friend's worries at a glance, but he wasn't really worried.

"What's there to worry about? Our program said from the beginning that wealthy families would be participating, and we also broadcast the Ye family's luxury and nobility live. It's like we've already given the audience a heads-up, so this little thing won't cause class conflict."

Hearing Sheng Rong's words of comfort, Zheng Lei nodded silently. Things had come to this point, and he had no other good options. After all, their program was being broadcast live, and there was no room for maneuver.

Now I just hope that today's live broadcast won't cause as many problems as the previous broadcast about Ye Linyuan.

As Sheng Rong had guessed, the comments in the live stream weren't directed at Ye Linyuan; instead, they expressed great dissatisfaction with the behavior of Yu Chao, Zhao Lili, Chen Guangjun, and Zhao Shuang's family.

What the hell are these guys up to?

[Exactly! What did Ye Linyuan and Sister Qingcheng do wrong? These guys actually gave them attitude, do they think they're something special?]

This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!

[I've wanted to say this for a long time: where did the production team find these weirdos? They're all mentally unstable.]

[Seriously, she thinks she's some big shot just because she's on a variety show? She actually had the nerve to try and intimidate Sister Qingcheng and Ye Linyuan?]

[Directors, did you see that? Why don't we replace those three companies and take their spots? We guarantee every single one of our members is a natural-born variety show personality!]

Yes, yes, that's right, our family is too, come find us!

【...】

"It seems like people aren't very welcoming to us."

As a rising star in the entertainment industry and one of the biggest financial backers, Ye Qingcheng wouldn't tolerate anyone being too lenient. If she had to be cautious with the power of the Ye family, it would be a disservice to her surname.

So when Ye Qingcheng realized that these people were clearly targeting them, her face darkened instantly, and her tone became somewhat displeased.

I'm different from these people. The production team begged me to come and record the show, not the other way around. Why should I put up with this kind of rudeness?!

"How could that be? Of course we welcome Sister Qingcheng!"

Yu Chao was completely dumbfounded. He originally thought that by being assertive and neither arrogant nor humble, he could stand out from the others. But he never expected that everyone had the same idea.

Fine, since you're all going to pretend to be chaste and virtuous women, then let me, Yu Chao, be the lapdog!

Thinking of this, Yu Chao even took a few steps forward and gave Ye Qingcheng and Ye Linyuan a fawning smile.

"Young Master Ye, Sister Qingcheng, your arrival has brought great honor to the entire production team. It is because of your presence that our program is getting better and better, and more and more popular. Haha, hahahaha."

Chen Guangjun and Zhao Lili, who were a step behind Yu Chao, showed regret on their faces when they heard Yu Chao's awkward flattery.

If I had known they wouldn't have pretended, I would have just licked them directly!

"Yes, yes, we were just so stunned by Young Master Ye and Sister Qingcheng's stunning good looks that we didn't have time to applaud."

As Chen Guangjun spoke, he raised his hand and clapped repeatedly, indicating that he had only missed clapping because he was distracted.

"Yes, yes, they were just so excited to see Young Master Ye."

Zhao Lili deliberately spoke in a high-pitched, coquettish voice; any ordinary man would probably feel his bones melt upon hearing it.

But to Ye Linyuan, the voice sounded not only affected but also incredibly awkward.

"Ahem, well, Miss Zhao, right? Excuse me, can you speak normally for once? You're giving me goosebumps."

"Besides, we Ye family members aren't RMB; we can't make everyone like us. Naturally, there will be people who dislike us. So there's no need for you to put on such an act, as if the Ye family would do something to you. We're not that tasteless."

Ye Linyuan's words immediately made the three families of Yu Chao, Chen Guangjun, and Zhao Lili feel extremely embarrassed.

They never expected Ye Linyuan to be so disrespectful, saying such things in front of a national audience, instantly labeling them as sycophants.

Although they really wanted to be Ye family's sycophants, they didn't want to be seen as such. They preferred to be the kind of sycophants who subtly and quietly influence others.
