Su Yang checked out Lin Jiali’s WeChat, intending to see what his ‘idol’ had encountered and what she had to say to her fan so early in the morning.
Lin Jiali messaged. (Ah! Su Yang!) [Aah! Su Yang! Su Yang!)
(Aaahhh! Su Yang! Su Yang! Su Yang!) …
There were seven of these messages coming in one after the other, each one longer than the one before it.
At the end, Lin Jiali sent a sticker of someone poking his neighbor with a stick. [Are you there? Are you there?]
Su Yang furrowed his brows, ‘Isn’t this comedy actress a little too free?’
Su Yang replied to her message in a lofty, snobbish manner.[?] Lin Jiali returned an emoji that was sighing in mere seconds as she said, [Waking up in the morning is making me so depressed I want to die.]
Su Yang continued his question marks. [?]
Lin Jiali actually didn’t mind his response at all as she continued responding to him. [Today there’s a female friend of mine who used to be close with me. She called me when she woke up, saying she had no drama jobs recently. There were no announcements, and nobody had called her in for a commercial so she wanted me to bring her along.)
Su Yang replied, (Isn’t that a good thing?) Lin Jiali agreed. [It’s a good thing but after I hung up the phone, I realized… that I don’t have anything myself!]
[I’m not sure if I’m particularly miserable, but I’ve been a semi-popular performer for five or six years now. Now, I’ve got no variety shows, awards, activities, commercial performances, or even a single advertisement, except for one TV show.)
[Since the company changed owners, the new boss has never been here. He doesn’t even pay much attention to us. Also, my new agent is still in limbo so nobody is helping me with a new job. Without exposure, my popularity is going down the drain! Even the few fans posting on my social media aren’t active any longer!)
[Sometimes I don’t even know why I chose this path… Maybe, it would be better to return to a normal life, be down to earth, get a job and find someone to marry.]
Su Yang thought about it and said, (Follow your heart. If you’re worried about your new manager and announcements, I just calculated that there will probably be a turnaround within a week).
Lin Jiali sent a surprised emoji. (You’re predicting my fate again?]
Su Yang replied. (Uh-huh.)
Lin Jiali requested. (Can you give me a live feed of your fortune telling? I’ve always been very curious about this tradition!)
Perhaps feeling that such a request was a bit too much, Lin Jiali sent another message quickly. (If it’s not convenient, take a picture of the divination and explain it to me!]
Su Yang was speechless.
This actress’ demands are getting more and more frequent… He didn’t have any items to fortune tell with and was just purely fooling around…
Su Yang’s eyes swept around the room and finally, his gaze fell on the bed sheets that were wrinkled because he had moved around alot in them during his sleep. He adjusted the camera, took a picture of the bed sheets and sent it over.
Lin Jiali received the photo. After a minute of trying to figure it out, she was still puzzled.
Su Yang replied, (I’m a person who has reached the highest level of fortune telling. I can predict anything based on anything. As long as you think of something you’d like to know the fate of, I can predict the future using just about anything as a tool…]
Lin Jiali was speechless. […]
Seeing Lin Jiali’s disbelief, Su Yang continued fooling around. [Look at that long bulge on the sheet, that’s your career line. That means your career will be smooth in the coming week. Look at the slanting line next to it. That’s your line of success. It means you’ll have everything you want this week.)
Lin Jiali was still speechless. […]
Su Yang felt like he was now talking to a wall.
He asked, [What do you mean by that?]
Lin Jiali was silent for a moment before she replied, [I may be a little silly! But I’m not that stupid…)
[Moreover, the career line and love line are things in palmistry! Everyone has sheets in their houses too! And! And! How could it be possible to have all my dreams come true like this! You big! big! liar!)
Su Yang laughed out loud. ‘Was it so obvious? But I feel like I’m making a lot of sense. How could she not be fooled…
‘It seems that I still can’t fool people through the screen without (Verbal Cannon)’
On the other end of their WeChat conversation, Lin Jiali was sitting on the bed in short, pajama-like short sleeves and shorts. Her white legs were exposed through her shorts and looked exceedingly slender on her pink bedsheets. Even in bed, she was full of energy. It was like she was a woman who was born with her own aura of stardom.
She threw her phone onto the bed in exasperation, crossed her arms over her chest, and stared while pouting. “This guy’s lying again! I thought he was a fan! I trusted him! Big liar!”
…
After being exposed by Lin Jiali, Su Yang didn’t reply to her WeChat but instead, called the general manager of the agency, Tan Mei. He asked about the company’s development, and pretended to carelessly ask about Lin Jiali’s situation.
After that, he instructed Tan Mei to find a new agent for Lin Jiali as soon as possible and find a few advertisements for her to work on, no matter big or small so she could have some exposure.
Although it was a bit suspicious as to why Su Yang would be so attentive to an artist’s arrangements, Tan Mei had been in this line of work for many years and had seen everything
Since the boss had already made special instructions, she’d just make sure to do it well.
After all, no one wanted to get involved in the affairs of male bosses and female stars.
After taking care of Lin Jiali’s matter, Su Yang stretched his body, got up, ate something, and left the virtual space to work.
However, Su Yang’s (Heaven’s Eyes] sensed that someone was secretly observing him not long after leaving his neighborhood, and it was two people.

One of them was the one he had seen several times before. He was wearing a trench coat, sunglasses, and a hat while standing on a building in the distance, secretly observing himself with binoculars.
The other one was on a street corner. He had a buffed up body and a gang-like look. This guy had the words ‘Longteng Jiayuan security guard’ plastered all over his face.
‘Why are the people of Longteng Jiayuan following me again? They even sent 2 people to spy on me, planning their path strategically with one spying from afar and one from a nearer distance.’
Su Yang pondered for a while, feeling that this was the precautionary methods of Longteng Jiayuan after what they had experienced with him previously. They were afraid that he’d knock out the one with close proximity to him without making a sound, so they arranged for two people to spy on him.
This strategy was really effective. Su Yang had no way to take out either one of them without alerting the other person. ‘How should I handle this…’
Su Yang, who had no choice, ended up not going to the office. Instead, he circled around the neighborhood and went to a coffee shop, intending to sit down for a cup of coffee to observe them.
As Su Yang entered the coffee shop, he perceived that the man in the trench coat probably stopped observing him because he entered the shop. However, the other one was still paying attention to him at a street corner not far away.
Su Yang ordered a cup of coffee and picked up a magazine on the table, looking at the magazine while drinking his coffee with his head down. He observed the two, intending to see what they were planning to do.
As a result,, an image suddenly appeared in front of him before he could find any clues. (Heaven’s Eyes], [Sensing) was activated.
It was a place that looked like a basement, and a man with muscles like Dwayne Johnson was looking menacingly at the person leaning against the wall across the room as he roared, “Tell me! What kind of relationship do you have with Su Yang?!”
Su Yang immediately recognized the man as the head of security, and the person opposite him was Sixth Liu!
Sixth Liu was already bruised and swollen as he replied with a desperate face, “Boss, we really don’t have anything to do with each other! Su Yang and I are neighbors at most. To make it clear, there’s still a feud between
US!”
The head of security glared at him. “If you guys don’t have some kind of deal together, why did he come to you? Why did you allow him to live in your house? Why did you give him your dog?!”
Sixth Liu was speechless.
The scene came to an abrupt halt here.
Su Yang’s expression was one of surprise. ‘What was going on? Why is Sixth Liu being beaten up? Why are spies from Longteng Jiayuan following me around?
‘Was I exposed?
‘It can’t be, could it?’
Su Yang felt like he had done a pretty seamless job, even going to the extent of wiping the dust off the second floor just to cover up the scene.
Moreover, there were almost no clues to connect himself with Longteng Jiayuan and Chen Ye. No matter how you thought about it, it was impossible to trace any of the incidents back to him…
Su Yang was a bit puzzled.
In the end, he could only attribute this to the fact that last night’s incident might have made Longteng Jiayuan strengthen its surveillance on threatening suspects.
‘However, these people are vicious. Shouldn’t I think of a way to deal with them?’
Because there were two little tails spying on him everywhere he went, Su Yang wasn’t in the mood to work so he simply sat in the coffee shop, drinking coffee while thinking of a solution to handle the developers of Longteng Jiayuan.
This caused the owner of the cafe to look at him with a slightly disgusted expression. After all, he had been sitting all morning just drinking a single cup of coffee. He didn’t even order a snack. If it wasn’t for the fact that the cafe didn’t have many customers, the owner would’ve kicked him out long ago.
However, Longteng Jiayuan’s team had already made their move before he could come out with a solution.
It was noon when Su Yang was just about to get something to eat. Wang Dong called him. Wang Dong sounded a bit panicked on the phone as he said, “Mr. Su, you should come to the company quickly. There’s a group of people who look like hooligans. They’re trying to break into the company and are standing there at the door. They aren’t leaving but they’re not making a scene either. They’re just standing there, saying they want to meet you.”
“The company is on its feet. I don’t know what’s going on since it’s all only gossip. There are several versions just from what I’ve heard. Some say you owe money to loan sharks while others say you slept with a gang boss’s woman. There are various versions.”
Su Yang lifted his brows and yelled, “Then call the police! Why didn’t you call the police instead of watching the show? I’m on my way there now!”
Saying that, Su Yang got up, paid the bill, and couldn’t be bothered to eat. He rushed to the company.
At the company, the hooligans had already left, and Wang Dong was calming people down.
When he saw Su Yang, he rushed forward to greet his boss. Su Yang furrowed his eyebrows. “Where did they go?”
Wang Dong whispered, “It seems like they took off after receiving a phone call.” “They left?!” Su Yang exclaimed, “How could it be such a coincidence? I was about to come over and they suddenly decided to leave.”
Wang Dong shook his head. “I don’t know…”
Su Yang couldn’t help but think of the two people who followed him. ‘Did they report my actions to their boss?’ Su Yang asked, “What did the police say?” Wang Dong replied, “The police over there said that if the other side doesn’t do anything and just stands there quietly, they can’t do anything about it.” Su Yang cursed, “Son of a b*tch!”
Wang Dong carefully looked at Su Yang. “Boss, did you really…. sleep with a gang boss’s woman?”
Su Yang stared at him, and Wang Dong replied with a hesitant smile.
Su Yang furrowed his eyebrows, confused as to why Longteng Jiayuan would want to mess with him. ‘Did they find out that I was the person who broke into Chen Ye’s villa last night?’
Su Yang was puzzled.
However, since he had already come to the company, he didn’t leave. He simply stayed in his office for the rest of the day.
The people from Longteng Jiayuan didn’t return, and no one continued to spy on him. It was all as if it was his misunderstanding.
Just when Su Yang thought that what happened in the morning was a misunderstanding, that he wasn’t exposed at all, and that he was just freaking out over the events. His [Heaven’s Eyes] ability discovered that the people following him had increased from two people, to four when he left work…
