You said you'd just lie down and relax, how did you become a top influencer?

Episode 3 of Chapter 66: With Guests

In the car heading towards Taoyuan Village, Xu An lay sprawled in the back seat, letting out a lazy sigh.

"Why are you starting to record the show so soon?"

"Why does it feel like only a few days have passed?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ge, sitting in the passenger seat, rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

"You've been spending the last few days either playing games or watching videos, so you must feel like time has flown by!"

"And it's one thing for you to play games, but you play them all night long every day. Don't you know that staying up late is bad for your leg injury's recovery?"

As she spoke, Bai Ge's tone became increasingly stern, like an older sister disciplining her willful younger brother.

Seeing Bai Ge's furrowed brows, Xu An shrank back, a hint of flattery on his face.

"Sister Bai Ge, this isn't my fault. You can give Zhao Yue a good talking-to later!"

"She's been dragging me to play these past few days. I'm not interested in games at all; I'm just being forced!"

Seeing that Xu An still wanted to shift the blame, Bai Ge's eyes showed helplessness.

"Anyway, I'll be watching you on the show for the next couple of days, so you can forget about playing games!"

Upon hearing this, Xu An's face showed a bitter expression. He was about to say something when he realized that the car had already arrived at its destination.

After getting out of the car, Xu An looked at the cars parked near the yard with a strange expression on his face.

"They all drove here this time; it seems they've learned their lesson from being tricked by Director Chen."

One sentence left Chen Zize, who came out after hearing the car, speechless.

"Ahem, the live stream has already started."

He whispered a reminder.

Upon hearing this, Xu An blinked, then looked enlightened.

"Zize-ge, long time no see! You've gotten even more handsome!"

I told you to watch your words, not to praise me!

As Chen Zize thought this to himself, he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

"Really? I have been paying attention to exercising lately."

"Of course it's true. I feel like you're good-looking enough to debut as a celebrity," Xu An said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Zize was taken aback, sensing that something was amiss.

The viewers in the live stream had already realized what was happening.

[Haha, telling a top idol you're ready to debut is really something.]

So here's the question: did the older brother get more handsome or uglier?

What are you saying? I'm a huge fan of my brother's looks!!!

Hearing their conversation, the other people in the courtyard also came out.

Upon seeing Xu An, the girl with the high ponytail, radiating youthful energy, said angrily:

"Xu An! Why are you so late?"

"Didn't you tell me you arrived two hours ago???"

Upon hearing this, Xu An said with an air of matter-of-fact acceptance:

"When we guys say 'I'm getting ready to leave,' it means we're getting ready to go out. Don't you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhaoyue's delicate face puffed up even more.

"How could such a claim be possible? What did you mean when you said you saw me an hour ago?"

"Oh, that means I'm already on the bus."

After recalling for a moment, Xu An smiled.

After speaking, Xu An blinked, looking at Jiang Zhaoyue who was staring at him without saying a word, and said with a hint of helplessness in his voice:

"Actually, I used to be very punctual, but I got stood up by my friends too many times, so I became like this."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhaoyue forgot about being angry with Xu An. Even Shen Wanwan, who had been smiling faintly and hadn't said a word, showed a hint of curiosity on her fair face.

"Brother An, did your friend also stand you up for several hours?"

Hearing Shen Wanwan's words, Xu An's face showed anger, and he said indignantly:

"It's even worse than that, you wouldn't believe it! I had plans to go online with a friend at noon!"

"Has he still not arrived by the afternoon?"

Jiang Zhaoyue guessed.

"Not only that, he didn't even reply to my messages when I went there tonight!"

"??? So you went there at midnight?"

Jiang Zhaoyue was stunned.

The comments section couldn't hold back either.

Is it possible that you were twelve hours late?

Why isn't your friend replying to your messages? It's so hard to guess!

He's still your friend, which is already a sign of leniency on his part!

[Seriously, can't you guys have any sense of time?]

Yes, day 1, day 2, day 1...

……

In the end, Xu An was forced to promise to be punctual next time before Jiang Zhaoyue let him go.

Upon entering the courtyard, Xu An was taken aback.

There was a man and a woman in the courtyard. The man had dyed his hair red and was wearing sunglasses. He was talking to the woman next to him.

The girl sat next to Zhang Lin, wearing a beige dress and holding a book. She seemed a little unsure how to handle the man's enthusiasm, and a troubled look appeared on her elegant face.

The two also met Xu An. The boy with red hair took off his sunglasses and greeted Xu An with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Li Yang from the ST group. You must be Xu An. Brother Ze often mentions you to me."

Upon hearing this, Xu An nodded.

"Hello, Brother Zize hasn't mentioned you to me."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin's face stiffened.

Why does this sound a little strange?

The girl next to him also stood up and looked at Xu An with a strange look in her eyes.

"Hello, my name is Zhang Yunxi, and I'm here to visit your home today."

Xu An nodded, and seeing the strange look in Zhang Yunxi's eyes, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What's wrong? Am I dressed strangely today?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yunxi realized that her gaze had been somewhat impolite and quickly shook her head.

Seeing this, Xu An laughed and said:

"I feel like there's something strange about you."

"What's wrong?"

As she said this, Zhang Yunxi looked down at herself and made sure that her outfit today was fairly normal.

"It looks really good!"

Xu An stroked his chin and blurted out a cheesy pickup line.

The effect was obvious; Zhang Yunxi was immediately stunned.

Zhang Lin, however, reacted quickly, puffing out his beard and glaring, saying:

"Xiao Xu, what are you doing? You're harassing my daughter while I'm still here!"

Xu An was truly stunned. He glanced at Zhang Yunxi, whose style was different from Bai Ge and Jiang Zhaoyue but whose looks were in no way inferior, and then at Zhang Lin, his voice filled with a hint of amazement.

"Uncle Zhang, now I truly believe in your good looks when you were young."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin felt somewhat embarrassed.

"Ahem, Yunxi mainly takes after her mother, it has nothing to do with me."

Upon hearing this, Xu An blinked.

"really."

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Lin suddenly felt that something was off again.

The live stream chat was already filled with laughter.

[Haha, the familiar little house, Mowan, is back!]

No one could maintain a smile after speaking with Xu An.

The smile won't disappear, it will just move, like to my face.

[Now I suddenly understand why Xu An has so many random skills; otherwise, he might already be dead!]
