I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

"Oh." Chen Ya was indeed not interested in gossip.

Wang Qian peeked out and asked Lao Tang, "Lao Tang, whose side are you on? Are you a childhood sweetheart or a teacher?"

The "Green Plum Party" and the "Teacher Party" are factions that emerged from the human observation program. The "Green Plum Party" represents those who support Liu Chenmin, while the "Teacher Party" refers to those who support Teacher Liu Ruyan.

Of course, Chen Ya, as the person involved, was completely unaware of these slang terms.

Old Tang said, "Emotionally, I side with the teacher. Liu Chenmin is no good."

Wang Qian nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes! I agree! I'm on the teacher's side too!"

“But I think if it were me, I would definitely choose Liu Chenmin,” Old Tang said.

Wang Qian's face fell, and she asked, "Why?"

Old Tang said matter-of-factly, "Damn, that's Liu Chenmin, from Seven Star Company. Do we need a reason to choose him?"

Wang Qian disagreed: "That teacher sounds pretty impressive too."

"Even if he's powerful, is he more powerful than Liu Chenmin? Damn, do you know how much Seven Star Company is worth now? Marrying him would be like living a life of ease," Old Tang said.

Wang Qian curled her lip: "Vulgar."

"You're so high and mighty, you think you're so great!" Old Tang retorted. "Let me ask you, if it were you, and you were asked to choose a teacher who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and suffer with him, while Liu Chenmin was pursuing you relentlessly, wouldn't you be tempted?"

Wang Qian thought about it and realized that what he said actually made some sense.

Old Tang asked again, "Think about it, if you go with Liu Chenmin, your child will be the heir of Seven Stars Company. If you give him up and end up failing, will you have the nerve to tell your child that?"

Wang Qian blushed: "If I were with Liu Chenmin, we wouldn't be able to have the same child."

"Now I'm asking you, if you put yourself in their shoes and consider things rationally, who would you choose?"

Wang Qian hesitated for a long time before saying, "...I don't know. Maybe I'll only know the answer when I actually face that choice. Sigh, I'm so envious of Ru Yan."

"Like smoke?" Chen Ya asked.

"It's okay, this is someone who lives far away from us, it has nothing to do with you. Just focus on your coding!" Wang Qian patted his head, coaxing him like a child.

Old Tang said, "I want to be patted on the head too."

"Get lost."

……

Old Tang's opinion is not uncommon; online, countless people share his view of rational analysis.

A post is rapidly gaining popularity on the forum, and its content is as follows:

[On Liu Chenmin's Contributions]

"As is well known, Liu Chenmin is the founder of Qixing Company."

But in the eyes of industry insiders, he is more like a living legend.

He made many contributions, but I will only mention those that are closely related to the lives of ordinary people like us:

First, the Seven Stars mobile phone brand he founded successfully entered the world's high-end mobile phone market, filling the gap in China's high-end mobile phone brands and changing the impression of Chinese products overseas.

Second, the curved screen was developed under his leadership and is a unique creation of Seven Stars. From today's perspective, he was at the forefront of the trend.

Third, he established the Seven Stars Charity Foundation, which has accumulated over 8000 million yuan in charitable donations.

I'm not trying to ride the coattails of the "Human Observation" trend; I'm just a casual observer, neither a supporter of the teacher nor a supporter of President Liu.

I just want people to know about the contributions he made.

Many people left comments below the post:

"Thinking about it this way, compared to the average person, President Liu has indeed made a greater contribution."

"Compared to President Liu, no matter how outstanding I am, it's just personal excellence. It's like comparing a student to a model worker. The student's excellence is their own, while President Liu has truly made contributions to society."

"I think it's outrageous that anyone would support the teacher. President Liu is someone who will go down in history. No matter how witty and humorous other people are, can they compare to him?"

"I agree with the comment above. I feel that many people are just speaking from an emotional perspective. If they really had to choose, they would definitely still choose President Liu."

……

Liu Chenmin pressed on, "So, what book did he write?"

Liu Ruyan pursed her lips.

Chen Ya would rather use two aliases than reveal his true identities as Jin Yong and Gu Long.

He has kept it a secret until now, so how could she dare to reveal it casually?

Liu Chenmin looked at the crowd behind Liu Ruyan and said, "Do you know?"

His gaze swept over Qin Yunchu, He Shiying, Gu Yuanzhen, Xiao Qing... and everyone's expressions varied.

They each had their own concerns, but what they had in common was that no one spoke up.

Liu Chenmin spread his hands and said, "Is it that you don't know them, or that they are simply unknown?"

Lu Yu chuckled twice and said, "President Liu, with your status, let alone ordinary writers or those online writers, even bestselling authors would be embarrassed to speak in front of you."

“Oh,” Liu Chenmin said, “so you mean the latter, right?”

"Forget it, it doesn't matter. Whether it's the former or the latter, I feel that I'm not good enough for you, Ruyan." He shrugged.

Gu Yuanzhen and He Shiying's expressions changed drastically.

Chapter 34 What kind of award is this?

Gu Yuanzhen and He Shiying's expressions changed drastically.

Kim Yong and Ko Long are their idols.

In other words, Chen Ya is now their shared idol.

They couldn't stand it when their idols were treated so disrespectfully.

Before they could react, Xiao Qing stamped her foot in frustration, veins bulging on her forehead, and whispered:

"I really want to tell him the truth right now in front of everyone!"

Qin Yun Chu held her hand and gently shook her head.

I can't say right now.

You absolutely cannot say that.

Chen Ya has kept his identity a secret until now; he must have his reasons.

It was already very impolite of them to come to his house to inquire about information. Although it started as a misunderstanding, it was still impolite in the end.

If they were to act out of spite and go against Chen Ya's wishes by exposing him to the entire nation, who knows how furious he would become.

Liu Ruyan said, "The teacher is a writer who is well-known throughout the country... no, the world."

"Oh?" Liu Chenmin said, "Then may I ask what his works are?"

"I can't say," Liu Ruyan said, biting her lip. "I can only say that if I reveal his identity, it will definitely go viral."

Liu Chenmin smiled.

This whole thing has been distorted ever since some so-called "teacher" came along.

He said he would be happy to "just take a look", but in reality, how could he possibly only take a look?

Given his status and position, any woman he even glanced at ended up in his bed!

He just didn't expect that a Cheng Yaojin would appear out of nowhere. Liu Ruyan had been missing for three years, and despite her social anxiety, she had actually started living with a man!

Liu Chenmin has a perfectionist personality; he wants everything to be the best, even women.

Perfection is something that must be fought for, so he spent his entire life striving for it.

If he hadn't won this argument, to put it in more metaphysical terms, his "spiritual heart would have been damaged."

“It’s been a long time since we last met, so I need to reintroduce myself,” he said proudly. “I am the founder of Seven Stars Company, the developer of Seven Stars mobile phones, and the organizer of the Seven Stars Foundation. I can tell people about every one of my identities.”

"I have never heard of a writer who cannot even reveal the contents of his works."

"Could it be that he is a married man, and you are worried about his reputation, so you dare not expose his work?"

That's a very insightful statement.

Liu Ruyan frowned and said, "That's not how it is."

“He’s a writer, not from the entertainment industry, and aside from the fact that he’s already married, I don’t understand why you’re unwilling to expose him,” Liu Chenmin said.

Mr. Liu frowned and slammed his hand heavily on the table again:

"Ruyan! You must explain this matter clearly today!"

Just then, the door opened, and a tiny figure ran out of the room.

Then, Xiao Yingying rushed into Liu Ruyan's arms: "Auntie! Teach me English!"

She waved a picture card in her hand and handed it to Liu Ruyan.

"Oh no!" Qin Yun Chu suddenly realized something and cried out in alarm.

Liu Ruyan, unaware of this, hugged Xiao Yingying close, picked up the painting from her hand as if no one else was there, and said with a smile:

"This is still that Nobel painting, but my aunt can't read the words on it."

Upon seeing Xiao Yingying, Liu Chenmin's expression suddenly changed, and he frowned, asking, "Whose child is this?"

Qin Yun Chu quickly helped answer, "This child is an orphan; she was adopted by her teacher."

"Adopt?" Liu Chenmin frowned.

At this point, the live chat exploded.

Combining what just happened—Liu Ruyan's absolute refusal to reveal the "teacher's" work, Liu Chenmin's doubts, and now the addition of another child—it all adds up.

No matter how you look at it, it seems like Liu Ruyan secretly became a mistress to a married woman, and the two were having an affair.

Only this makes sense.

If the teacher supporters and the childhood sweetheart supporters were still going back and forth just now, the screen is now completely filled with comments supporting Liu Chenmin.

Everyone is questioning whether Liu Ruyan was truly involved in the affair.

Some netizens even listed all the well-known contemporary writers, speculating and doubting one by one, to see who might be the "heavyweight writer" Liu Ruyan was talking about.

"Enough!" Liu's father shouted, panting heavily.

We had originally agreed that we would come on this show so that we could see our daughter.

Unexpectedly, the Liu family lost face in front of the entire nation.

If he had known things would turn out this way, he wouldn't have participated in the show at all.

If he weren't trying to maintain appearances, he would have hung up the video call right now.

“Liu Ruyan, I’m warning you,” Liu’s father said, “you come home right now, immediately! You are not allowed to contact that teacher again, and you are not allowed to talk about anything that happened in the past three years! Otherwise, I will sever our father-daughter relationship!”

When Mr. Liu said these words, even Mrs. Liu's expression changed.

She pushed Liu's father's arm and said, "Old man, what are you saying? Ruyan is our only biological daughter. How can you sever ties with her?"

"I don't care!" Father Liu waved his hand, shoving his wife aside, and said, "Our Liu family cannot be known for its improper conduct! Even if my branch of the family line dies out, I absolutely cannot tolerate my daughter being someone's mistress!"

Mr. Liu was panting heavily, and Mrs. Liu, who was standing nearby, felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this. She turned to Liu Ruyan and said, "Child, your father has a heart condition. Don't upset him like this! Come back quickly!"

Liu Ruyan bit her lip: "No."

"What's wrong with that? Don't you care about your parents at all?"

Liu Ruyan lowered her head: "I can't possibly not contact my teacher."

"At this point, you're still calling him 'teacher, teacher,' are you trying to drive your dad crazy?!"

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Lu Yu quickly tried to smooth things over:

“Miss Ruyan, if it’s really as you say, it won’t affect that writer’s reputation. So what if you mention his name?”

Liu Ruyan lowered her head and remained silent. Xiao Yingying, playing with picture cards, looked up at Liu Ruyan, reached out her little hand, and stroked her face.

"Auntie, Auntie, don't cry, don't cry, everything will be alright."

Liu Ruyan grabbed her hand, and a tear fell onto her children's clothes.
