Why did the system take my request to take photos with a cosplayer seriously?

"This guy is too mysterious, and the more mysterious he is, the more uneasy you feel. What do you think he's after? I sing okay, but not so good that he'd spend so much money on me, right? He doesn't show up, and he doesn't make any demands..."

She muttered to herself, "Do you think he might be a pervert? Like the kind who likes to hide in the shadows and spy on other people's lives?"

Who are you insulting?

"I didn't insult you!"

"Ouch..."

Ding Heng gave a helpless, bitter smile, then quickly composed himself.

"I already said, they have too much money to burn, they just want to promote an artist they like."

"Fine! I'll just assume he's burning money."

Despite saying that, Longhe still couldn't shake off his concerns.

"Besides, is your boss reliable? Don't let her sell me out later."

"do not worry."

Ding Heng tightened his grip: "My boss is a really good person and reliable. Besides, you're a top star, who would dare not give you face!"

Long He let out a comfortable groan and didn't ask any more questions.

After a while, Ding Heng stood up.

"Alright, take a break. Don't go on stage with dark circles under your eyes this afternoon."

Where are you going?

"Let's go out and explore. It's my first time in Hong Kong, so I have to see the sights."

Is this your first time in Hong Kong?

Long He looked suspicious, but before she could question him, Ding Heng had already left the room.

Inside the elevator, Ding Heng took out his phone.

[Ding Heng]: I've arrived in Hong Kong. Are you ready?

[Lin Hu Leads the Way]: Don't worry, boss, I'm ready to go anytime! [Fox grinning mischievously.jpg]

[Ding Heng]: Don't overact.

[Lin Hu Leads the Way]: That depends on how well you cooperate, boss~ [Fox winks.jpg]

The filming went more smoothly than expected the following afternoon.

The brand was sincere and the process was smooth. After shooting several sets of photos and a short video, we finished an hour earlier than originally planned.

In the lounge, Long He was removing her makeup.

Ding Heng pushed the door open and came in: "Are you free tonight?"

"Is something wrong?"

"My boss knows you're free tonight and wants to meet you."

"Eh..."

Long He turned his head: "Your boss?"

"Ah."

Ding Heng nodded: "Seven o'clock tonight, at her villa."

How did she know I was free in the evening?

"It must be because I talked to her."

"You betrayed your brothers!?"

"..."

Before even seeing Lin Man, Ding Heng could already sense the intense hostility emanating from Long He.

Are you going or not?

"Go ahead, what's there to be afraid of!"

She wanted to see just how beautiful and wealthy her brother's boss was! Could she possibly surpass her, a big star?

Long He changed back into casual clothes, gave Sister Zeng a few brief instructions, and then traveled with Ding Heng to a villa in Pingdingshan District.

"Does your boss live here?"

"Ah."

"The housing prices here aren't cheap."

Longhe, who had just been full of confidence, couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Even for a big star like Long Ho, the property prices in Pingdingshan, Hong Kong, are extremely expensive.

The boss's brother seems to be more powerful than she imagined...

The villa's yard wasn't large, but it was very well maintained.

Neatly trimmed shrubs line both sides of the stone path, dotted with a tall phoenix tree.

Lin Man was standing at the entrance waiting.

Her long hair was tied up in a bun, making her face even more alluring.

The light gray velvet maxi dress, with its soft and draping fabric, perfectly accentuated her already alluring curves.

The collarbone is delicate, adorned with a small emerald pendant, its luster warm and smooth.

His demeanor was detached and composed, as if he possessed a kind of noble air, as if he had been raised with money since childhood.

She can stand there doing nothing and make people feel that she is the owner of this mansion.

Long He clicked his tongue inwardly, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.

Unprepared and outmaneuvered by the opponent!

"You're here?"

Lin Man said in a friendly tone, "Miss Long He? I've heard so much about you. I'm Lin Man, and I especially enjoy listening to you sing."

Long He subconsciously reached out his hand, and the two gently shook hands.

"Hello."

"Don't stand at the door, come in and sit down."

Lin Man stepped aside, gesturing for the two to enter the house.

"The housekeeper isn't here today, so the house is a bit messy. Please don't mind."

"You're too kind..."

The two sat down. Long He was a little reserved, while Lin Man casually crossed her legs, her skirt slipping up slightly to reveal a section of black stockings.

Long He saw this and his lips twitched slightly.

Why wear black stockings at home? You're so sexy!

"Ding Heng, go pour two glasses of water."

Lin Man gave the order, and Ding Heng immediately responded and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Long He was dumbfounded again... Was his brother usually this easy to talk to?

Besides, isn't this your first time in Hong Kong? How come you seem to know your way around so well!

Ding Heng returned quickly and poured tea for the two of them.

Lin Man picked up her cup, took a sip, and frowned slightly.

"Too cold."

She handed the cup back, her voice coquettish, "I've been feeling weak lately, please get me a warm cup!"

Ding Heng wasn't annoyed. He took the cup, turned around, and went back to the kitchen.

Long He's expression grew increasingly subtle, and the unease in his heart intensified.

Soon, Ding Heng brought back a cup of warm water. This time, he tested the temperature on the back of his hand before placing it in front of Lin Man.

"Okay."

Lin Man picked up her cup, took a sip, nodded in satisfaction, and then turned her gaze to Long He.

“Miss Long He, I often hear Ding Heng mention you.”

"is it?"

Long He forced a smile: "What did he say about me?"

"They said you sing very well, are very loyal, and so on..."

Lin Man smiled subtly: "You are his best brother."

"..."

Long He's smile froze completely.

brother.

The words sounded inexplicably jarring coming from Lin Man's mouth.

"Ding Heng is usually not very talkative, but he can be quite talkative when he talks about you."

Lin Man said casually, "So when you said you wanted to meet his boss, I thought we could just have a meal together and talk face-to-face. That would save him the trouble of relaying messages between two people, which is too tiring."

Long He didn't know how to respond, and the next second he saw Lin Man kick off her slippers and stretch her feet out in front of Ding Heng.

"Ding Heng, I went for a run outside today, and my legs are a little sore."

Ding Heng walked over naturally, sat down next to Lin Man, and took her legs over.

Sheer black stockings wrapped around the instep, highlighting the arch of the foot in a smooth curve.

Ding Heng grasped Lin Man's ankle, pressed his thumb against the sole of her foot, and began to massage it with even pressure.

"here?"
