「The next afternoon.」

The entire family from Meicheng had arrived. An Lan and her family also arrived in succession. Zhao Lizhen and her husband, along with the children's teachers, were the last to arrive. This time, they didn't come by helicopter but by yacht.

Lin Dashan and his wife were truly proud of their son, who was now successful in his career with a happy, perfect family. Even his son and daughter were sharp and clever. Xiaoyuan was now in Jingcheng, having set up his own studio. Although it was still in its early stages and hadn't turned a profit, it hadn't lost any money either. He was a sensible child, too, always making sure to call home during holidays and festivals. Countless people envied them.

Lin Dashan was gradually handing his business over to his subordinates, only needing to go in two or three times a week. In his free time, he would go fishing or play cards with Lin Daan and Lin Dahu, living a very leisurely life. Meanwhile, Zhou Cuilan went traveling and shopping with her friends. Despite being only in their fifties, they were already living a retired life. They seemed to get younger with age, their mindsets improving along the way. When Lin Feng's family didn't return to their hometown for the New Year, everyone knew it was because their two sons had become so successful, and they were green with envy.

Everyone knew each other, so they all headed inside together, chattering noisily with smiles on their faces.

This time, the entire SP studio came along, bringing their work equipment with them. It was the first time in their lives they had ever seen a private island. They were determined to have no regrets and get a taste of what life was like for their wealthy boss.

Tony's team was composed of young people who were active on social media platforms and had already amassed millions of fans. They would sometimes do live streams, with most of the content related to drawing, such as how to color with tools like PS and SAI or how to use a drawing tablet. They also featured exclusive interviews with the most popular manga artists from their self-created app. Occasionally, they would do lifestyle streams, featuring gourmet food, pets, or a tour of their company. They kept up with current trends to better promote their app and their PC website. This year, they maintained a weekly live stream schedule to better interact with their fans.

The person fans clamored to see the most was Qin Xiaoan, who remained a figure of speculation. All they knew was that he was a bonafide video game design mogul. Besides finding his voice appealing, they had never had the chance to see him in person. Last week, Tony had made a joke at the end of a video, promising that if the video got over a million likes and a hundred thousand shares, they would have Qin Xiaoan make a live appearance. And they wouldn't go back on their word.

Usually, their videos only got two to three hundred thousand likes and ten to twenty thousand shares, so the comment was just meant as a joke. Unexpectedly, in just two days, the video had already surpassed ten million likes and reached one hundred thousand shares.

Qin Xiaoan, "..."

Since then, Qin Xiaoan had been giving Tony the cold shoulder. Qin Xiaoan was a core member of the team, a pillar of SP. He was someone they absolutely couldn't afford to offend. So, despite Tony's repeated attempts to broach the subject, Qin Xiaoan simply refused to respond. What were they supposed to do? Today was Sunday, the final day. If they didn't stream, SP's credibility would be ruined. Because of this, Tony couldn't fully enjoy himself; his mind was always preoccupied.

Over by the party area, Lin Feng's butler had everything prepared. Noticing Tony sulking in a corner, Lin Feng walked over to ask what was wrong. After understanding the situation, Lin Feng said, "You'll have to figure this one out yourself."

What kind of boss is this? Shouldn't he help me come up with a solution or offer some advice? Is that all he's got to say?

Lin Feng felt that everyone had their own agency. Tony had made this decision without discussing it with Qin Xiaoan, so if Qin Xiaoan didn't agree, what could he do? Still, seeing Tony's troubled expression, Lin Feng called out loudly, "Qin Xiaoan, come here for a moment!"

Qin Xiaoan had a good idea of what this was about. "I'm not doing a live stream!"

Tony was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. The comment section on their social media was exploding with fans waiting to see the true face of the great Qin Xiaoan.

"Qin Xiaoan," Tony pleaded, "how about this? I'll agree to any condition you name, as long as you show your face. How about for three seconds? Just three seconds!"

But with Lin Feng here, Qin Xiaoan had to show him some respect, even if he didn't want to for Tony's sake. In the end, Qin Xiaoan relented.

He glared fiercely at Tony. "I'll settle the score with you later!"

Tony grinned broadly. "Sure! Later, you can do whatever you want. I won't say a single word in protest!"

Tony found a spot to start the live stream. In the viewers' time zone, it was just 7:00 PM. The moment the stream went live, there was a flood of bullet comments all requesting to see the great Qin Xiaoan. The comments below were also clamoring for him, hoping to finally see the master's true face.

Tony calmed everyone down. "Alright, here you go! Let me show you SP's top talent, Qin Xiaoan!"

Qin Xiaoan greeted the phone with a deadpan expression. "Hello everyone. I'm Qin Xiaoan. It's nice to meet you."

Qin Xiaoan was actually quite handsome, with a cool, aloof sort of charm. He had even dressed up a little for the trip to the private island, and his appearance was enough to steal the hearts of his fans.

"Now that you've all seen me," Qin Xiaoan said nonchalantly, "there's nothing else for me to do. I'll be going now."

Then, he turned and walked away without a backward glance.

Tony smiled and explained to the audience, "That's just how our Xiaoan is. I'm sure many of you who have followed our talks have already gotten a sense of his personality!" He added, "Though Xiaoan isn't much of a talker, his skills here at SP are absolutely top-notch!"

The fans were understanding. Getting to see the great Qin Xiaoan at all was a wish fulfilled. They had now met all three of SP's top figures.

Viewers started asking Tony where they were, as it was still light on his stream. Tony explained, "I'm staying on my boss's private island for a few days!"

Tony was essentially the face of SP, handling most of the live streams and various other matters. The fans had heard him mention this boss more than once and were intensely curious about what kind of person he was. They knew he was rich, but they never imagined he owned a private island. That was truly impressive. Many people were curious about this boss Tony talked about, and some fans were genuinely grateful to him. Without his initial funding, SP would never have been established, and they wouldn't have so many amazing comics to enjoy. Thus, their anticipation was high.

Tony chuckled. "Our boss is a super handsome guy! Super, super handsome!"

The fans expressed their disbelief, insisting they needed to see him to believe it.

Tony called out in Lin Feng's direction, "Boss! Can you show your face for a moment?"

Lin Feng, "..."

I was just minding my own business. Why am I being dragged into this? he thought. Then again, he must have said that because the fans requested it.

After a moment's hesitation, Lin Feng walked over. "What's up?"

"The fans just want to get a glimpse of you, to see the man behind SP!"

Lin Feng stated flatly, "I'm not the boss. I'm a partner."

"It's pretty much the same thing!" Tony said nonchalantly, then paused before asking again, his tone incredibly humble, "Could you show your face, please?"

He knew Lin Feng always kept a low profile and rarely made public appearances. There were no rumors about him out in the world, so Tony felt bad for asking.

Lin Feng stepped into view, his impossibly handsome face filling the screen. "Hello, everyone. It's a pleasure to meet you. I hope you'll all continue to support us as you always have." He smiled at the audience. "I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. Goodbye."

With a polite nod, he left.

The comment section instantly blew up.

"OMG, this man is illegally handsome! How can anyone be that good-looking?"

"I always hear Tony say their boss has several kids who are already over ten! I totally thought he'd be a bald old man!"

"Seconded! When Tony said his boss was the most handsome, I didn't believe him!"

"Now I believe it! It's true! He's totally my type!"

"He's my new husband! Hubby, your wifey loves you!"

"I got a screenshot! HAHAHA, this is my new phone wallpaper!"

"Ladies, did you forget? He's not just handsome, he's also rich! A private island, remember?"

"!!!! Why are all the good-looking, rich men already married?"

Tony laughed. "Their relationship is really strong. They've been together for over ten years and are as in love as ever. Plus, his wife is extremely beautiful!"

The comment section turned sour with envy, and the fans continued to try and bait Tony.

"I don't believe you! You're lying! That can't be true!"

"Yeah! No pics, no proof!"

"Exactly! Let her come over so we can see her. Then we'll believe you!"

This time, Tony was smart enough not to fall for their trap.

"Tony, what are you—Ah!"

It was Zhang Yuxi, who was just passing by and had glanced over out of curiosity. Realizing he was live-streaming, she quickly tried to retreat. But even in those few seconds, the stream had captured her stunningly beautiful face. Many fans had already seen her.

"AHHH! Three seconds! I need all the info on that beauty, now!"

"She's gorgeous! Tony, did you finally get a girlfriend?"

"It was just for a few seconds, but she's already a goddess in my eyes!"

"Her voice is so lovely... too bad my screenshot failed..."

Tony laughed heartily. "Her? She's the boss's wife!"

The comment section was flooded with, "..."
