I started as a spirited young man, and the system made me a male god.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.

Chen Fei dried himself off and stood in front of the mirror, blow-drying his hair.

The scene of Jiang Che wrapped in a bath towel was still in Chen Fei's mind, but he only felt a little embarrassed, not a surge of heat.

He himself was a little surprised, but after thinking about it for a moment, he understood the reason: it must be because he had been living with those two girls, Shen Shaoting and Lin Jingyi, for the past few days.

Shen Shaoting has a carefree personality; after taking a shower, she'll wrap herself in a towel and run around the living room looking for things.

Although Lin Jingyi was shy, after living together for a long time, she was gradually corrupted by Shen Shaoting and started wearing Chen Fei's shirts as pajamas all day long, which was very seductive.

If his home weren't a two-bedroom apartment, Chen Fei would probably have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.

Of course, the biggest reason is that Jiang Che is different.

She is an important partner in my career.

This clear understanding acts like a sturdy dam, blocking any potential ambiguity.

Unless the other party takes the initiative like Shen Shaoting, Chen Fei will not take the initiative to test the waters, so as not to ruin this hard-won cooperation.

Talk about money when you're talking about money, and talk about feelings when you're talking about feelings. If you mix them up, it'll be hard to separate them.

Chen Fei took a deep breath, put on a simple T-shirt and athletic shorts, opened the door and went out.

In the living room, Jiang Che had changed into a light blue silk nightgown, her long hair loosely draped over her shoulders, and was sitting at the desk by the window, typing on her laptop.

The cold light from the screen reflected on her profile, her expression one of familiar focus and calm, as if the brief glimpse of spring had never happened.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up, her gaze sweeping over Chen Fei before closing her laptop. "The exhibition will probably take all day tomorrow. It's getting hot in Hangzhou these days, and the exhibition halls are crowded; it'll be tiring to walk around. Do you... want to come with me, or stay at the hotel and rest?"

Chen Fei barely hesitated: "Let's go together. I was going to let you film me anyway. There's no reason for the main character to be busy while the photographer can relax."

He smiled and added, "Besides, since I've come all this way, I naturally want to learn a lot from President Jiang."

Jiang Che seemed satisfied with the answer, a look of relief flashing in his eyes. He smiled slightly and said, "Okay. Then we'll meet at 9:30 tomorrow and head over after breakfast."

"Okay. You should get some rest too."

"Okay, goodnight," Jiang Che replied.

Chen Fei picked up his computer, got up, walked to the bedroom, and gently closed the door.

The heavy solid wood doors separate the space, and the suite's excellent sound insulation completely eliminates noise from the living room.

Chen Fei leaned against the headboard, turned on his computer, and focused his attention on the footage he had shot that day.

Snippets of time spent waiting for a flight, candid shots of Jiang Che being approached at the airport, his focused expression while browsing the fabric market, and the city lights and shadows seen through the car window...

He quickly screened, categorized, and labeled the data.

After processing the materials, he glanced at the time; it wasn't even nine o'clock yet.

After thinking for a moment, he set up his phone in a spacious corner of the room and, with the soft light of the overhead lamp, recorded a short fitness report video.

There are no fancy camera movements, just a simple turn to show the recent changes.

Finally, he zoomed in, focusing the camera on the side of his face and neck.

"Many friends have asked me how I got better skin," he said casually to the camera, as if he were chatting. "Actually, there's no secret. I just followed the advice of netizens, worked out a bit harder, sweated to detox, and then..."

"Eat more fruit, supplement vitamins, and maintain good habits, and your face will naturally become clean."

For the fruit footage, Chen Fei didn't plan to use footage showing his face. Instead, he prepared close-up shots of the fruit taken at a buffet to avoid making the video monotonous.

In his copywriting, he deliberately downplayed the fact that he had done skin care and omitted the miraculous effects of the "Beauty Lemon Water".

The most crucial point in creating content for Xiaohongshu, or any content that viewers find "useful," is to create the illusion that "amazing results can be achieved with simple steps."

Just like food videos, the blogger's style is so smooth and easy that viewers can easily understand them and give them likes and saves.

However, if the blogger lays out all the difficulties and hurdles in detail, the audience will lose the desire to try it, and will be less likely to like or save it.

In the context of the video Chen Fei recorded at this time, what he wanted to convey was a strong implication that "as long as you move around and eat cleanly, you can do the same."

What appears to be a video showcasing how to improve oneself through listening to advice is actually a subtle and gentle tutorial on skin and body management.

It inspires longing, making one think, "I could do it too," and one's fingers unconsciously tap to add it to favorites.

Once the video is edited, it's paired with upbeat music and simple on-screen text, then published.

He glanced at the account data; the number of followers had already exceeded 50,000, and the growth rate was even faster than expected.

The comment section became noticeably more active, with more specific advice on fitness and skincare appearing in addition to praise and admiration.

Many people who care about skin management even started discussing and debating with each other, using Chen Fei as a benchmark.

The hype builds layer upon layer, and naturally, the number of views and followers increases.

However, Chen Fei does not plan to withdraw the money immediately, as he has enough for now and intends to wait until he has more than 100,000 followers before withdrawing it.

We'll also hold a giveaway then, which will both reward our fans and boost our follower count.

After finishing these tasks, a WeChat notification sounded softly.

When Chen Fei opened it, he saw that it was a message from Meng Sixian, and it was also a video.

After clicking, the screen was a bit shaky, with the background showing the brightly lit and bustling venue outside.

The camera first pans across a group of cosplayers in outlandish costumes, then freezes on the screen.

Lu Ziyue, sporting striking pink hair and wearing Anya's iconic school uniform from "Spy in a House," earnestly applies eyeliner to Meng Sixian.

Meng Sixian sat somewhat reservedly, wearing an exquisitely made burgundy dress that accentuated her well-proportioned figure.

Her makeup was exquisite, and her eyes and brows actually revealed a bit of the gentle yet sharp temperament of Joel Fogg from the anime.

"Chen Fei, Lu Ziyue brought me to the Firefly Comic Con and even helped me with my makeup. There are still so many people here tonight, it's so much fun."

Meng Sixian's voice came from off-screen, carrying a smile and a hint of excitement.

At the end of the video, Lu Ziyue seemed to notice the camera, suddenly turned her head to look at the screen, and a very wide, ambiguous, evil smile appeared on her lips.

Despite it being a sweltering summer night, Chen Fei felt a slight chill on the back of his neck, and almost broke out in a cold sweat.

Lu Ziyue has actually turned her attention to Meng Sixian?

He immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

Meng Sixian is simple-minded and easily trusts people, so it was effortless for a social butterfly like Lu Ziyue to get close to her.

If the two of them become best friends, it will be much more difficult for me to gain favor with Meng Sixian and get system rewards in the future.

But not taking it is impossible. The [Beauty Lemonade] obtained by exchanging just 30 points of favorability has such amazing effects.

Chen Fei couldn't imagine what kind of amazing items the rewards would be for unlocking higher favorability levels.

The temptation is too great!

But if she were to be exposed, the temptation would turn into danger, and no one knew what Lu Ziyue would do using that.

What should we do?
