I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 456 I'm a Genius

September 9th, the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Early in the morning, the crew prepared mooncakes for each actor, and Qiu Qing, in place of Wang Feifei, broadcast this content live.

It was a major holiday, and it was in the morning, so there weren't many people in the live stream, only tens of thousands. Everyone was lazily posting comments, and there weren't many people giving tips.

[Among all the monkeys on the mountain, my bottom is the reddest: I thought the Mid-Autumn Festival would see a repeat of the sweet vs. savory mooncake debate from the Dragon Boat Festival, and then Mother Autumn would once again make a mooncake with both sweet and savory fillings.]

[This old monk is here to steal your beauty: Speaking of which, Brother Xian did so many fancy tricks during the Dragon Boat Festival, will he do something similar for the Mid-Autumn Festival? Looking forward to it!]

[The bald monk who put down the poor nun: I just don't know whose name it's under this time, is it "Dream of the Red Chamber" or "Hello Mr. Billionaire"? I personally feel it will be under the name "Dream of the Red Chamber", after all, "Hello Mr. Billionaire" is just a comedy commercial film.]

[Picking your nose and flicking it: Who will Brother Xian spend Mid-Autumn Festival with today? On this night of family reunion, Brother Xian is all alone filming. How pitiful!]

……

Many fans who are on holiday at home are sleeping in late, or busy enjoying time with their families whom they haven't seen in a long time, or busy preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival feast at noon and in the evening. So, they are not too concerned about what kind of tricks Ye Xian will pull.

Ye Xian didn't do anything special all day. After filming in the morning, the crew gave everyone a half-day break in the afternoon, and Ye Xian took Li Xin and Qiu Qing home.

As the female lead, Li Xin couldn't go home for the holiday and had to stay.

Surprisingly, Duan Fei didn't go home to be with her, so when the group returned home, they found that Duan Fei and Qiu's mother had already prepared a big meal at Ye Xian's new home.

"Hurry up and wash your hands. We all get a rare day off today, let's have a good meal!"

Mother Qiu placed a plate of freshly steamed hairy crabs on the dining table: "Ye Xian, are you sure you still want to broadcast tonight's big live stream?"

Ye Xian smelled the aroma on the table and his mouth watered: "Hmm, let's broadcast it. I guess a lot of fans will watch it. Since we're already used to it, let's not interrupt it."

Li Xin, who had been excitedly heading towards the dining table, blushed immediately upon hearing Ye Xian's words: "Brother Xian, what you're saying is like slapping me in the face."

Duan Fei chuckled and said, "Indeed, our live stream has become a bit bland."

During this period, both of them were busy filming and appearing on variety shows. In addition, after the filming of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" started, Li Xin and Duan Fei's schedules could not be aligned, which resulted in the two of them being unable to conduct regular live broadcasts.

This didn't align with Ye Xian's requirements for his artists, so the two of them felt embarrassed when they heard Ye Xian say he would continue the live stream even during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ye Xian shook his head and said, "It's okay. You already have more than 1300 million fans. It's fine if you don't stream regularly from time to time. But if you want to develop in the long run, you have to do regular streams, no matter how busy or tired you are! So you need to try to adjust your schedule as much as possible."

Li Xin and Duan Fei nodded hurriedly, like chicks pecking at rice.

In their daily lives, the two of them would do all sorts of silly things, but when it came to work, they would listen to Ye Xian's arrangements very seriously.

There was nothing they could do; the path Ye Xian pointed out to them was just too suitable for their future development.

……

Then, Aunt Qiu brought out a plate of big plate chicken, complaining, "It's a holiday, everyone relax, stop talking about work, sit down and eat!"

Qiu Mama's braised chicken is very unique, with a rich sauce, fragrant potatoes, soft and smooth wide rice noodles, seasoned green peppers and scallions, and golden-yellow tender chicken. It's simply amazing.

Ye Xian is a northerner in this other world, and this is his favorite food. When Qiu's mother found out that Ye Xian loved this food, she specially found someone to learn how to make it.

Qiu Qing was also very tempted. She couldn't eat spicy food, but the spiciness of the Dapanji (Big Plate Chicken) wasn't dry spiciness, but rather a seasoning from the green peppers, so she also fell in love with the dish.

"Auntie, your cooking is amazing! I thought Brother Xian was already very good, but I still feel like I can't get enough of your cooking every time I eat it."

Li Xin and Duan Fei were like two greedy children, their mouths greasy and full of meat, yet they couldn't help but keep praising each other.

"You guys are so sweet-talking."

Autumn's mother's eyes lit up with a smile: "Eat as much as you like. Ye Xian will be doing a big live stream tonight, and we can eat delicious food next to him and keep him waiting."

"Great idea!"

Li Xin and Duan Fei's eyes lit up at the same time.

Ye Xian couldn't help but complain, "Auntie, how can you be like this? How did you end up learning bad things from Li Xin?"

Li Xin immediately objected: "Hey? Brother Xian, I don't like it when you talk about Auntie like that! Everyone knows how good Auntie is!"

Qiu Qing glared at Li Xin: "You're just trying so hard to please my mom. What kind of mom is she? We're eating here while Ye Xian is all alone doing his live stream?"

Duan Fei chuckled, "Tsk tsk tsk, she's not even married yet, and she's already ignoring her own mother!"

Li Xin also chimed in sarcastically, "Sigh, we're all outsiders. We'll have dinner with Auntie tonight, you two can enjoy your time together."

Qiu Qing's face turned bright red instantly. She was easily embarrassed and couldn't stand being teased, but she still firmly stood by Ye Xian's side: "Anyway, I won't leave him to eat delicious food alone."

"Oh no, this dog food came so unexpectedly! I was hoping to eat a couple more hairy crabs, but I'm already stuffed!"

"Showing off your love will only lead to a quick breakup. Enough already, stop flaunting your relationship in front of us!"

Li Xin and Duan Fei each said something that made Qiu Qing so ashamed she couldn't lift her head. Seeing his childhood sweetheart being bullied, Ye Xian couldn't help but say, "You two come on the live stream with me tonight!"

Li Xin and Duan Fei suddenly fell silent.

Can you please stop being so shameless?

To save your little green plum, let's sacrifice our precious rest time and a delicious meal!

Seeing that the two of them had lost their spirits, Qiu Qing smiled and secretly grabbed Ye Xian's big hand under the table.

In an instant, the large hand reached out and grabbed her small hand, warmly enveloping it, and then tickled her palm.

Qiu Qing quickly glanced at everyone present, and seeing that no one had noticed, she quickly withdrew her hand.

This idle fellow is getting more and more arrogant.

However, she forgot that she was the one who flirted with him first.

……

After dinner, everyone rested for a while. Qiu's mother went to prepare the live broadcast materials, and Ye Xian suggested that everyone go swimming to digest their food. The girls readily agreed.

And so, on this leisurely afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Three mermaids immediately appeared in the infinity pool on the second floor of Ye Xian's new home.

Looking at the three women's graceful figures, Ye Xian felt a little dazzled.

Too pale!

too big!

So dazzling!

No, I can't stand on the shore anymore, or I'll embarrass myself.

Ye Xian put on sunglasses, plunged into the infinity pool, and began to enjoy this rare moment of leisure.

Earning so much money, isn't it all for this kind of decadent life?

Next time, bring back the five girls from the music competition, and also bring back Chen Xu and Li Hong.

And there's also Ogura Tomi and Deng Qiqi!

Then, let's take a group photo and post it on Kuaishou (a Chinese short video platform).

Eleven mermaids surrounded me!

It'll probably get over 100 million likes in no time!

Haha, I'm such a genius at operations!

Okay, Yuri, get out of here.

……

Just as Ye Xian was enjoying a rare moment of decadence, the official Kuaiyin account of the hit drama "Dream of the Red Chamber" released a new short video.

The video immediately sparked heated discussions upon its release.
