"God Ye Qiu, Brother Ye, I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'll kneel for you, please give me an autograph!"

"God Ye, do you have a girlfriend? How about me?"

"Let go of God Ye and let me in, I'm the school beauty, don't stop me from getting into bed with God Ye!"

As soon as Jian Chenyu finished speaking, the students swarmed toward Ye Qiu like moths to a flame!

All the students went crazy!

They tightly surrounded Ye Qiu, staring at him intently, their gaze completely different from when they looked at Jian Chenyu, as if they were worshiping a high and mighty Celestial God!

"How, how is this possible?" Jian Chenyu was completely stunned.

Earlier in Bai Lan's office, Bai Lan sided with Ye Qiu against him, making him very displeased. When he left the company, he ran into a group of fan students and happened to meet Ye Qiu. Jian Chenyu thought his mood would brighten immediately and even wanted to use the fans to deal with Ye Qiu.

What was the outcome?

Those originally enthusiastic fans all defected the moment they saw Ye Qiu?

This left Jian Chenyu utterly baffled.

A top-tier celebrity with countless fans nationwide was somehow rendered insignificant?

What Jian Chenyu couldn't tolerate was that these students were even more excited to see Ye Qiu than him!

Their enthusiasm was even higher!

"Damn it, I really want to kill this guy!" Jian Chenyu gritted his teeth.

He was utterly unwilling to accept that he, a dignified top-tier celebrity, was simultaneously betrayed by so many fans!

"I don't believe it!" Jian Chenyu muttered resentfully, holding a newly signed notebook, walked over to a student, and shouted, "Here you go, student, your autograph!"

Smack!

Just as Jian Chenyu was about to hand over the signed notebook, the student smacked it away, letting it fall to the ground. "Go away, what useless junk, I only want God Ye's autograph!"

"You actually smacked away my autographed notebook?" Jian Chenyu was stunned once more.

Before he could regain his composure, from not far away, came an even more excited shout, accompanied by the shutter sounds of cameras clicking.

"Hahaha, I've finally captured some groundbreaking material, top-tier star Jian Chenyu utterly defeated by grassroots celebrity. Autograph smacked away by fans, so satisfying, really satisfying! Jian Chenyu, you'll be tomorrow's headline!"

As soon as the words fell, a trio of paparazzi dashed away.

"Damn it, to hell with your headlines, to hell with all your ancestors' headlines!"

Jian Chenyu, nearly spitting with anger, wished he could rip Ye Qiu apart with his bare hands. However, seeing the crowd drawn by the paparazzi's words, he could only hang his head, dark-faced, and slink away.

Ye Qiu also took advantage of the distraction the paparazzi created to push through the crowd and swiftly escaped back to Bai Lan's office.

8 PM.

After reviewing documents, Bai Lan walked to the window to look out, then helplessly looked at Ye Qiu. "If I'd known, I wouldn't have invited Jian Chenyu. It's already 8 PM, and not only have the people waiting for your autograph not diminished, but they've increased..."

"Sigh!" Ye Qiu also sighed, gazing at the ceiling. "I just happened to take down a nemesis along the way, and this group of people gets so excited over it?"

"Stop showing off; your fans won't give up until they see you. You'd better come with me through the back door."

Gathering up the documents, Bai Lan walked straight out of the office.

Ye Qiu followed, and the two took the elevator to the underground parking lot.

Just as they got in the car, Bai Lan suddenly slapped her forehead. "Darn it, I left my phone in the office."

"I'll go get it!"

Before Bai Lan could respond, Ye Qiu had already vanished like a flash.

Returning to the office, he quickly found Bai Lan's phone, and just as he was about to pick it up, the phone rang.

Seeing it was a call from Xu Xin'Er, Ye Qiu answered immediately.

"Lan, do you have time? I'm not in a good mood and want you to have dinner with me." Xu Xin'Er's voice still choked up. If Bai Lan had answered, she would surely think Xu Xin'Er hadn't recovered from the photo scandal and would feel sorry for her.

However, Ye Qiu remained calm and indifferent. "Didn't I say? President Bai has been busy all day, and now it's already 8 PM. Are you still not letting people rest?"

"I'm sorry, it was my mistake." Liao Min'Er apologized and hung up the call.

Ye Qiu deleted the call record and quickly left.

The two left the company smoothly through the back door and returned to Bai Lan's villa.

Upon entering, Bai Lan gave Ye Qiu a deep look and said, "Today is really strange. Xu Xin'Er said she was coming to find me, but I didn't see her all day, and she didn't even call. Do you think something happened to her?"

"Probably not," Ye Qiu said calmly.

"Sigh." Bai Lan shook her head, somewhat helpless. "I'm telling you, Xu Xin'Er really doesn't have a problem. She's at a crucial moment now, where she needs someone by her side. Whatever you do, don't target or discourage her."

"Why would I target her? Would I be jealous over a woman?" Ye Qiu laughed.

As he spoke, he wrapped Bai Lan in his arms, and the two embraced tightly, slowly moving toward the bedroom.

At the same time, elsewhere.

In Fell's hideout.

Liao Min'Er knelt on the ground, fearfully looking at Fell. "Master, I'm sorry. I've tried to meet with Bai Lan several times, but I've failed each time. That Ye Qiu is like a fly, constantly circling around, not giving me any chance. I don't even know why he's suspicious of me."

While speaking, Liao Min'Er trembled violently, preparing to face Fell's wrath.

However, Fell didn't explode as she expected. Instead, he grinned and said, "Just continue as planned here; there's no need to rush. Even if Ye Qiu discovers something, you can still buy me some time."

"Master, do you have a new plan?" Liao Min'Er asked cautiously.

"Hehehe." Fell chuckled coldly, his eyes filled with eager anticipation. "I heard today that the military district made another major breakthrough a few days ago; it's quite a temptation.

I'm planning to act tomorrow because tomorrow coincides with the municipal project bidding conference. I'll infiltrate the military district to steal their files. Your job is to keep an eye on Ye Qiu. Even if exposed, delay for me as much as possible.

Of course, if possible, avoid provoking Ye Qiu. Try to get Bai Lan alone if you can, understood?"

"Understood, I won't disappoint you, Master!" Liao Min'Er nodded firmly.

"The last time's Golden Potion data gave me quite a surprise. I wonder if this time, you'll give me an even bigger surprise? I hope you'll give me the chance to take down Ye Qiu!"

Fell murmured to himself, recalling the previously acquired data, grinning with excitement.
