I, the number one master of metaphysics, have achieved legendary status in the entertainment industr

Later, Mr. Zhou added, "Being able to receive guidance from the master is a blessing for my family. From now on, my family will donate at least 500,000 yuan to charity every year."

"Good deeds will be rewarded, Elder Zhou, your good fortune is yet to come," Lu Fan said with a smile.

Old Zhou rubbed his hands together, his face apologetic: "I was rude and said some harsh things at the company just now, Master, please don't take it to heart. I just... sigh, my grandson has been sick for a long time, I'm anxious, and I can't stand anyone."

Lu Fan waved his hand: "Old Zhou's concern is causing him confusion, which is understandable."

Old Zhou then looked at Su Qin: "President Su, my previous opposition to your plan was due to my shortsightedness. From now on, I will definitely support your decisions without hesitation!"

Su Qin smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you flatter me. It's all for the company's development."

Then Old Zhou remembered something and tentatively asked, "Master, I still don't know your name? And which sacred mountain and temple do you cultivate on?"

Lu Fan paused, then raised his hand and took off his hat and mask.

When Old Zhou saw his face, he was first taken aback, feeling that the face looked somewhat familiar. Then his eyes slowly widened: "You...you are...that celebrity? Your name is Lu...Lu Fan?"

Lu Fan nodded: "It's me."

Old Zhou opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything for a long time.

He doesn't actually follow celebrities, but his investments involve the entertainment industry, and with Lu Fan's recent scandals making headlines, it's hard for him not to know about them.

"This...this..." Old Zhou looked at Lu Fan, then at Su Qin, his mind a jumble of thoughts. "Those things online..."

"What's said online isn't true," Su Qin said from the side, her tone certain.

Old Zhou snapped out of his daze and immediately said, "I believe you! Of course I believe you! How could a master like you do such despicable things! Someone must have framed you! Those people online are just spreading rumors!"

His attitude changed without hesitation, even tinged with a hint of indignation: "Master, rest assured, is there anything this old man needs to do? I know a few people in the media circle..."

"Not for now." Lu Fan put his mask back on. "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

"Of course, of course," Old Zhou said quickly, and then warmly invited, "Master, President Su, you absolutely must stay for a meal today so I can properly thank you."

Lu Fan shook his head: "No, I have something to attend to. The child needs to rest, so we won't bother him any longer."

Although reluctant to part, Old Zhou knew his grandson had just woken up and it wasn't appropriate for him to stay long, so he personally saw them to the door, repeatedly instructing them, "Master, if you need anything in the future, please call me anytime! Be sure to!"

After leaving Zhou's old house, Su Qin and Lu Fan sat in the back of the car while the driver drove. Su Qin let out a long sigh of relief, a relaxed smile on her face.

"Xiao Fan, you really impressed me today." She turned to look at Lu Fan. "Old Zhou is known for his stubbornness and is unyielding, but I never expected you to tame him so completely. The biggest obstacle to the project has been solved just like that."

Lu Fan handed her the small wooden box: "Sister Qin, this is for you."

Su Qin took it, opened it, and inside was a wooden pendant that looked very similar to Yu Tinglan's.

She picked it up, looked at it, then put it back and pushed it back to Lu Fan: "This is too valuable. It's worth millions, how can I accept it?"

"The value of something depends on who it is." Lu Fan didn't take it. "To me, it's just a piece of wood. To you, it can make you healthier. You deserve it."

Su Qin looked at him, her eyes softened, and she accepted the wooden box without further refusal.

"Thank you," she said softly, her fingers tracing the edge of the wooden box. "Friday... are you really okay?"

"Hmm." Lu Fan looked out the window. "No problem."

The car was first dropped off downstairs at Lu Fandao's building. Su Qin saw that Lu Fandao had changed locations, but didn't ask any further questions.

She wanted to see him up, but Lu Fanwan refused.

"Sister Qin, you still have things to do at the company, you should go back now. I can go up by myself."

"Okay, then be careful. Keep in touch."

Lu Fan nodded, got out of the car and went into the building, then entered the elevator.

Unexpectedly, just as I stepped out of the elevator,

He saw a tall figure standing at his door.

The woman was facing away from the elevator, wearing a simple white shirt and black suit pants, with her coat draped over her arm. She had a tall and straight posture, and her long, slightly wavy hair fell over her shoulders.

Even though it was just a glimpse of his back, Lu Fan recognized him at a glance.

Jiang Ying!

One of the most sought-after movie actresses today, the youngest Best Actress winner, she is known for both her acting skills and beauty, and is also famously aloof and unapproachable.

How did she end up here?

Lu Fan walked over, and the sound of his footsteps made Jiang Ying turn around.

She wasn't wearing sunglasses or a mask, and Lu Fan was immediately struck by her fair complexion.

Her face was not only fair, but also beautiful and extremely aggressive, with exquisite features, especially her eyes, which were slightly upturned at the corners, giving her a natural sense of aloofness and scrutiny when she looked at people.

She just stood there so naturally, as if she were standing at her own front door.

"Miss Jiang?" Lu Fan was somewhat surprised.

Jiang Ying is a big star, yet she stands so brazenly at his doorstep, isn't she afraid of being recognized?

At this point, he doesn't have a good reputation. If he gets involved, Jiang Ying's position will probably be on the front page immediately.

Moreover, what surprised Lu Fan the most was what reason could have prompted this big star to come looking for him at this time?

Did I save her before?

Lu Fan tried to recall carefully, but he had no memory of having any contact with Jiang Ying.

Or perhaps she knows of my abilities from elsewhere and wants to ask me for a favor?

Lu Fan felt that this was quite likely.

Across from him, Jiang Ying looked at him, her sharp gaze sweeping over his face, sizing him up and down, but she didn't say anything.

Her eyes and expression made Lu Fan even more unable to understand the woman in front of him.

He decided to skip guessing and, while entering the security door code, asked, "Miss Jiang, is there something you need?"

"Something's up." Jiang Ying took a step forward, getting closer to Lu Fan, and said coldly, "I've come to see what kind of bastard is capable of doing that to women."

"what?"

Lu Fan was taken aback, and his hand holding the key stopped.

He never expected Jiang Ying to say something like that.

Jiang Ying stared at him, her gaze growing colder: "What? Surprised? Did you think you hid it well?"

"No..." Lu Fan frowned, somewhat puzzled. "Miss Jiang, we don't seem to have met before, nor have we ever worked together. What makes you say that?"

"Where did you begin?" Jiang Ying asked sarcastically. "Lin Weiwei, you know her, right? She's an artist under Xingyue."

Lin Weiwei?

Lu Fan remembered; it was the actress Xing Yue had arranged to frame him for "harassment."

His brow furrowed even more: "Lin Weiwei? What did she say to you?"

"What did she say?" Jiang Ying looked at him and said, word by word, "She said you touched her inappropriately on set, sent her harassing messages in the middle of the night, and threatened her not to tell anyone. She said she almost got...

Jiang Ying paused, then took a deep breath: "Lu Fan, what kind of skill is it to bully a girl?"
