The beauty in the Douyin video wore a white dress, exuding a delicate jasmine aura. Her skin appeared as white as snow, glowing under the beauty filter, making her look like a pure white angel descending from the heavens.
Isn't that Xiao Ai?
Zeng Shen recognized her instantly.
As the video continued, Zeng Shen saw clips of himself and his parents getting out of the RV. The video had been edited to include scenes of Leader An and Director Gu, along with shots of them shaking hands with Xiao Ai and him as they left the Zeng family ancestral hall after the banquet.
The video was titled "The Mysterious Foreign Investor's Background: Even the Leaders of Jinhai Are Interested."
The video had been uploaded this morning.
This meant Li Yuqing had come across it today.
After watching the video, Zeng Shen looked up at Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong, who were both staring at him intently.
In that moment, he felt a strange sensation, as if he had been caught by his wives after a night of revelry, facing their scrutinizing gazes, with a guilty conscience.
However, this feeling lasted only a moment.
He quickly remembered that Li Yuqing and Liu Tongtong seemed to be hiding their own inappropriate relationship from him.
It struck him that he could introduce Xiao Ai to them, using her to gauge whether his wife's preferences extended to both genders or were exclusive to Tongtong.
With this in mind, he regained his composure and confidently explained, just as Xiao Ai had instructed him to introduce their relationship.
"So, Brother Shen knew Alice before he met us," Liu Tongtong remarked after hearing his explanation.
Zeng Shen nodded, "Yes, we should all have a meal together sometime and get to know each other."
"Great, great," Li Yuqing exclaimed with a smile, "Alice is so beautiful. Hubby, you have to introduce her to us soon."
Liu Tongtong gave Li Yuqing a teasing look, handing her a tissue, "Here, wipe your drool."
"What?"
Li Yuqing took the tissue, puzzled, but quickly realized the joke.
She unbuckled her seatbelt, moved to the back seat, and playfully declared, "Oh, you little minx! How dare you mock this fairy? Watch me teach you a lesson today!"
With that, Li Yuqing lunged at Liu Tongtong, who was trying to escape through the car door, and began tickling her mercilessly.
Liu Tongtong, extremely ticklish, burst into laughter, pleading for mercy.
However, Li Yuqing seemed in no hurry to let her go, occasionally tugging at her thin dress, revealing more than intended.
This playful scene distracted Zeng Shen, who was about to get out, reminding him of the delightful experience from that night.
He couldn't help but regret drinking so much.
After a while, the two women settled down.
Liu Tongtong, her face flushed with an alluring charm, cast a playful glare at Zeng Shen, who had been watching, and feigned anger, "Nerd, what are you staring at? Control your wife!"
"Oh, no, not again," she laughed as Li Yuqing launched another tickle attack, this time on her waist. "You sly fox, how dare you talk to my husband like that," Li Yuqing teased.
"Okay, okay, I surrender," Liu Tongtong pleaded, and Li Yuqing finally let her go. The two straightened their disheveled clothes before getting out of the car.
Stepping out, Zeng Shen chuckled at the familiar sight of the abandoned hospital and asked, "How do you plan to shoot this time? The iron gate is closed. Are you filming outside?"
"We're filming inside," Li Yuqing replied.
"The gate is locked. Are you going to climb over it?" Zeng Shen asked.
Li Yuqing shook her head, "No need. Hubby, we'll go around back. There's a section of wall that's collapsed. We can enter through there."
"How do you know that?" Zeng Shen asked, puzzled.
Liu Tongtong chimed in, "We discovered it when we passed by earlier."
Hearing this, Zeng Shen nodded in understanding.
Following their lead, he walked around the hospital's perimeter to the collapsed wall, entering the courtyard of the abandoned hospital's inpatient building.
"Hubby, Tongtong and I will start fighting here, then move upstairs, pretending to fight and exchange lines. In the end, I'll pretend to lose and get caught by Tongtong, who'll drag me into a patient room to 'punish' me. You just keep filming," Li Yuqing explained.
"Alright," Zeng Shen agreed.
With his confirmation, the two women began acting out their practiced lines, fighting from the first floor to the top of the fifth floor, until Li Yuqing was captured by Liu Tongtong and taken into a patient room.
After descending from the building, Zeng Shen led the exhausted women back to the RV, listening to their ideas for the video.
"Hubby, make the inpatient building look like a grand five-story palace, and transform the patient room into Su Daji's chamber," Li Yuqing requested.
"No problem, I'll handle it tonight," Zeng Shen replied, noting the request and secretly sending it to Xiao Ai to work on.
"Won't you do it at the studio?" Li Yuqing asked.
"I prefer editing in my bedroom. I get distracted in new environments," Zeng Shen fibbed.
"Alright," Li Yuqing sighed softly.
Afterward, the three had a meal together.
After lunch, Zeng Shen dropped them off at the studio, citing a need to practice at the martial arts hall, and headed to the Lihuo Martial Arts Hall.
This time, he planned to spar with Li Zhiyuan one last time before telling him he wouldn't be coming back.
With the RV parked outside the Lihuo Martial Arts Hall, a warning sounded in Zeng Shen's ear.
[Danger! Danger! A third-tier curse-type deity is leading its followers in a fierce assault against the followers of a third-tier fire-type deity. With your current strength, getting involved in this divine war would make you cannon fodder. Leave immediately.]
Hearing this unusual warning, Zeng Shen paused, looking into the martial arts hall.
In the courtyard, Zhang Erhe was holding his head, looking despondent as he faced a group of seven or eight-year-old kids in pristine white martial uniforms, crying loudly.
"Wah, I want to go home..."
"Wah..."
"Mommy... Wah, I don't want to practice anymore..."
Listening to the incessant cries of the children, Zeng Shen couldn't help but think to himself.
"This kind of assault is indeed intense."
He continued walking inside, observing the children.
Suddenly, he stopped, his gaze fixed on a crying little girl with pigtails and a tear-streaked face.
Isn't this little girl the third-tier curse-type deity who will claim Haoyun Community as her territory three years from now?
