The heat in the livestream remained high, and no one had expected that the seemingly mismatched pair would turn out to be brothers.
One was a young and promising entrepreneur who was said to have taken over a large company as soon as he became an adult, acted decisively, and had a net worth of over a hundred billion.
The other was an artist who had a particularly bitter and difficult journey from debut to fame. At the beginning, it could be said that he had no resources and was even suppressed by some seniors. Everyone had seen Ji Zeqiuâs cheap clothes when he first debuted and his skilled wood chopping, cooking, doing laundry, and so on, on variety shows. They all thought he came from a poor household, a child who had to shoulder responsibilities early on.
With such a huge gap between them, no one associated the two together.
But when Ji Zeqiu and Ji Tingyang stood side by side, everyone was surprised to find that their faces were somewhat similar.
Xiao Qiao: âOh my god, these two definitely look like real brothersâI believe it now!â
The Bling of Nightlife: âNow that you mention it, I seem to remember the woman in the photos does resemble Ji Zeqiu a bit. Looks like sheâs really his aunt!â
At this time, Lin Xu also appeared in the livestream and greeted everyone, âHi everyone, Iâm staying here temporarily. I didnât expect to be misunderstood by everyone, Iâm really sorry.â
The three of them appeared in front of the camera together, creating an even more striking contrast.
These three faces clearly belonged to relatives!
By now, everyone had completely believed it.
Kept as a lover? Ji Zeqiuâs brother was the President of Jiâs. Who could afford to keep him?
As for a girlfriend? Didnât you see the faces that looked so similar as if they were blood-related? Not to mention calling her an aunt, it wouldnât be too much to even say she was their mother!
The previously emotional fans and troublemaking passersby in the livestream had all calmed down, beginning to praise the Ji familyâs good genes, saying that both brothers were so handsome, and Lin Xu, even placed in the entertainment industry, was a great beauty.
Lin Xu couldnât stop smiling as she looked at the screen full of praises for Ji Zeqiu and Ji Tingyang.
Who wouldnât be overjoyed to see their own children being complimented?
Seeing Lin Xuâs surprised and delighted expression towards the livestream, Ji Zeqiu simply handed over control of the livestream to her.
However, he regretted this impulsive decision just a minute later.
âLift your arms and make a heart shape above your heads,â Lin Xu directed Ji Zeqiu and Ji Tingyang, as if they were posing for a photo.
Seeing her lively manner, neither brother had the heart to dampen her spirits. They exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and emotionlessly made heart signs at the camera.
Baby Jiâs Beloved: âAhhh! Screenshot! I never thought Iâd get to see such an eye-pleasing pair of brothers make a heart sign together. I can die without regrets now! Thank you, Auntie, my god!â
Chips: âAuntie, I want to see the brothers hug each other, please satisfy my request!â
Lin Xu glanced at the barrage and turned to the two brothers, âHug each other.â
âThatâs just too cringy, I donât want to hug him!â Ji Zeqiu protested first.
Bearing the heart sign was enough, but why add a hug?
Ji Tingyang also expressed his distaste, his indifferent eyes sweeping across the camera lens, and those emotionless eyes gave off a faint sense of pressure, âDonât make excessive requests.â
Cotton Comforter: âBig brother is so cool, Iâm in love, Iâve become a fan!â
Chips: âWuwu, Auntie, big brother scolded meâ¦â
The livestream that night was very lively, and several threads about Ji Zeqiu and Ji Tingyang stayed high on the trending searches.
This matter was thus settled.
But what made Ji Zeqiu happiest was that from now on, there was no need to be so careful when going out with Lin Xu.
By the next day, the scandal involving Ji Zeqiu had calmed down.
The agent organized some material, ready to sue those rumor-spreading marketing accounts and trolls to take down the rumors about Ji Zeqiu and Lin Xu.
However, what was unexpected was the strong support received upon reporting the issue to the higher-ups.
âPresident Xie said we must firmly protect the rights and interests of our artists. Just go ahead with it, the company will cover the expenses,â the agent was told.
The agent was pleasantly surprised and quickly shared the good news with Ji Zeqiu.
Who knew that upon hearing this, Ji Zeqiuâs expression suddenly turned sour, âSelf-serving under the guise of public interest, who knows if heâs protecting the companyâs artists or someone else.â
âSomeone else?â the agent asked back in confusion.
ââ¦Itâs nothing.â Ji Zeqiuâs eyes flickered, not saying much, âRight, have you found out about the photos?â
âFound them.â The agent sent the findings to Ji Zeqiu, excitement evident in their expression, âI didnât expect it to be someone from Chenxing Entertainment, isnât this putting them right in your line of fire? With a move from your big brother, couldnât this all be easily dealt with?â
Ji Zeqiu pursed his lips tightly, âI donât need him to intervene in my affairs.â@@novelbin@@
Meanwhile, inside Chenxing Entertainment.
After seeing that Ji Zeqiu and Ji Tingyang were brothers, the man held his phone with hands shaking slightly and abruptly stood up to enter the office.
âCousin, what should we do?!â The manâs lips trembled involuntarily as he spoke, his heart in turmoil, âWhat if President Ji investigates this, will I be kicked out of Chenxing?â
The woman sitting at the office desk was already frazzled with worry, âGetting out of the contract is one thing, but what Iâm most afraid of is President Ji blacklisting you in the industry to protect his brother.â
âCousin, you have to help me!â The manâs voice was shrill, almost breaking, his pupils filled with fear.
âZheng Haoguang, have you lost your mind? Why did you have to provoke Ji Zeqiu? It would have been fine if it didnât work out the first time, but you didnât know when to stop and insisted on fighting him,â the woman almost ground her teeth in frustration.
Zheng Haoguangâs eyes flickered as he guiltily said, âI just couldnât swallow that pride.â
At a party last time, he had merely hit on Shen Qingtang, only to be publicly chastised by Ji Zeqiu, making it impossible for him to save face.
He had never suffered such humiliation before.
He then collected some dirt on Ji Zeqiu, wanting to teach him a lesson.
And he indeed found something.
Although the womanâs face in the photos was blurred, it was more than sufficient; a few marketing accounts would make a fuss and that would be enough to give Ji Zeqiu a headache.
But unexpectedly, those photos didnât cause much of a stir at all and were quickly brushed aside by Ji Zeqiu.
Lately, a few paparazzi heâd worked with before captured new photos, and he posted them all online, hoping to cause another commotion. But what came out instead was the wave revealing that he was Ji Tingyangâs brother.
Now Zheng Haoguang really regretted being honest.
âWhat can I even say to you.â The woman sighed, praying that he had been discreet enough not to get discovered, only to see the next moment on her phone the news about her cousin.
