Chapter 763: Cousin Yiyi, Did You Check Your Social Media?

When the Lu brothers arrived at the backyard, Lu Jianlin just so happened to be doing morning exercises there. The moment he saw Lu Yunxiao coming over, he stopped and said with a stern face, “You had better attend the blind dates. At the very least, you have to sit with them for a full 30 minutes. I will have my men keeping watch.”

Lu Yunxiao: “…I understand.”

…

It was already the 25th of the twelfth lunar month which brought them even closer to the New Year.

Even though Zi Yi and Lu Jingye moved back to the Lu Family’s villa and Mrs. Lu had made them have a good rest, it was impossible to rest the entire day.

Needless to say, Lu Jingye had tons of work to arrange and he had left for the jewelry store early in the morning.

Zi Yi had a lot of follow-up work to do after yesterday’s art exhibition.

Even though Lu Jingye had sent Secretary Shao over to help her, she still returned to the art gallery after lunch.

Unexpectedly, there were reporters surrounding the art gallery.

The moment they saw Zi Yi alighting from her car, they immediately came forward and circled around her.

“Miss Zi, can we ask you a few questions?”

Zi Yi had brought along a few bodyguards with her. The bodyguards immediately stopped the reporters at the sight of them approaching Zi Yi.

However, Zi Yi stopped and said with indifference, “Secretary Shao should have mentioned whatever needs to be said yesterday. Stop staying outside my art gallery all day.”

A few reporters were stunned and one of them hastily said, “We’ll just ask a few questions. We’ll leave after we finish asking.”

Just then, Dou Xiangling and Ian who arrived first heard the commotion and came out.

Ian asked, “What happened?”

The reporter hastily said, “We just want to ask a few questions. We’ll leave right away after asking.”

Ian pondered for a second and said to Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling, “Dou, Zi, you two can go in first. I’ll handle it from here.”

The moment the reporters heard Ian, they got anxious. The person they wanted to interview the most was Zi Yi.

One of the reporters immediately asked eagerly, “Miss Zi, were you angry after reading the comment made by Joseph, an oil painter from Country Y?”

Zi Yi looked at the reporter. “What comment?”

The reporters blanked out for a second. “Miss Zi doesn’t know?”

“Should I know?” Zi Yi asked instead of answering. “I’m very busy. Why should I know such unimportant things?”

The reporter was speechless. Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling turned around and headed towards the entrance of the art gallery.

By the time they arrived at the door, the reporters had finally recovered their senses and become even more excited.

So it turns out that Miss Zi doesn’t even know of the criticism Joseph had made.

In that case, it was most likely that Miss Zi also didn’t know that there was a huge sensation over the internet because of it and her art gallery.

If they were to release this news right now, wouldn’t it cause another huge wave of discussion?”

Ian knew what the reporters were thinking about by looking at their expressions. “Ladies and gentlemen, you can ask questions, but in the future, activities of our [Future Gallery] will be directly published on our official website. I hope that you do not stay guard here all the time. After all, Zi and Dou aren’t celebrities and they need to have privacy.”

Ian’s words sounded extremely gentlemanly, but the reporters somehow felt that there was a hint of a command mixed in.

The reporters received a shock and knew that they could not offend the person in front of them. They quickly said, “Yes, of course, we understand.”

…

Zi Yi glanced at Ian who was standing outside answering the reporter’s questions. She turned around and said to Dou Xiangling with a smile, “Cousin, what do you think about having Ian be the public relations officer for our art gallery in the future?”

Dou Xiangling smiled. “Ian shouldn’t have that much free time on his hands.”

Zi Yi thought about her research lab and nodded. “You’re right. After all, I still need him to look after my lab for me.”

Dou Xiangling walked over to Zi Yi’s side and looked outside with her.

Ian gave off the air of a noble from head to toe. He was used to being gentlemanly and even when facing reporters, he still looked like a gentleman.

Someone like that was indeed very attractive.

Zi Yi watched for a while and headed elsewhere. She said to Dou Xiangling, “I’ll go check our security system.”

Dou Xiangling followed her.

They used many different types of materials not available in the world yet and there was no need to worry about security at all.

Dou Xiangling looked at Zi Yi operating the virtual screen and thought of something. “Cousin Yiyi, did you check your social media?”

“Nope.” Zi Yi was not allowed to play with her phone or tablet at home. “Is something the matter?”

Dou Xiangling pursed her lips and smiled. “Your fans have exceeded 70 million.”

Zi Yi was not surprised in the slightest. “I’m not a celebrity. Why do I need so many fans for?”

Dou Xiangling was unexpectedly speechless.

Just then a few red dots appeared on the virtual screen.

“What’s that?”

“Our art gallery is being targeted.”

Having said that, she brought up a virtual keyboard and quickly typed on it.

Dou Xiangling was worried. “Who is it?”

“XX Intelligence Bureau from Country A, YY Intelligence Bureau from Country K, ZZ Intelligence Bureau from Country D.”

The more Dou Xiangling listened, the more shocked she was. When Zi Yi mentioned seven to eight different organizations, Dou Xiangling’s heart rate sped up. A few moments later, she asked in worry, “What do they want?”

“It must be because of the design of the place.” Ian was the one who said that.

Ian walked in from the entrance and looked at the red dots on the virtual screen. “Zi, are you able to take care of them?”

“Yes.”

Zi Yi looked very calm. It was to the extent that it seemed to be a small matter in her opinion.

Sometime later, they saw several lines on the virtual screen and these lines were all connected to the red dots.

Subsequently, the red dots disappeared.

Ian asked, “Did you take care of them?”

“I shifted them away.”

As soon as Zi Yi said that, she turned off the virtual screen.

Ian was momentarily stunned before he gave her a thumbs up. “That’s a good idea. After taking care of them, they will definitely use other methods to stare at the art gallery. It would be better to shift their attention away. However, I’m very curious. Where did you shift them to?”

“A company of Country A in the capital. I changed the data of the company. Those people will only think that they are tracking our side.”

Ian and Dou Xiangling laughed at her words.

The three of them discussed the follow-up exhibition for the art gallery.

After they finished discussing, Ian asked Zi Yi, “Zi, do you want to go out and play tonight?”

He then looked at Dou Xiangling. “Xiangling and I discussed it. Our art exhibition went smoothly and we should celebrate.”

Dou Xiangling glanced at Ian. She doesn’t seem to have agreed to his idea and only mentioned asking for her cousin’s opinion first…

Zi Yi shook her head. “I’m not going.”

Mrs. Lu mentioned that she would be preparing soup for her and she could not possibly make her disappointed every time.

Seeing that Zi Yi wasn’t going, Dou Xiangling said, “Then I won’t go either. It’ll be the New Year’s soon and everyone is busy.”

Ian revealed a disappointed expression. “Alright then. Your country does indeed have tons of preparations that need to be done for the New Year’s. When would the both of you be free then? We can get together, especially with Lu but will he have time?”

“Before New Year’s Eve, we should be quite busy.”

“Sigh… it seems like I can only hang around alone.” Ian decided to call An Wei out tonight for a drink.

At around 4 p.m., Zi Yi sat in the car and went back.

Unexpectedly, not long after the car drove out they were met with a traffic jam.

Zi Yi tilted her head and looked outside, only to see a familiar person.
