Emotionally stable, but continuing to go crazy

Chapter 108 Cold War

Just then, he received a push from a marketing account. He wanted to cross it out directly, but he caught a glimpse of the key words, which caught his attention.

[Entertainment reporter Pineapple: Netizens broke the news that they ran into a popular idol in a hotel and were suspected of being investigated by the police. [Picture][Picture][Picture][Picture][Picture]]

Wei Zhe'an quickly clicked on the pictures. The first three pictures showed the hotel they stayed in last night, the police car in front of the door, and the figures of several people covering their faces as they were taken away by the police.

The last three photos were taken secretly at the corner of the corridor. Although they were far away from the crowd and no faces were captured, the outlines of the legs of a policeman in uniform and several other people could be vaguely seen.

Although this Weibo post did not mention anyone by name, it cleverly used keywords such as "idol", "police", and "investigation", which quickly sparked heated discussions among netizens and topped the hot search list.

Many people were speculating about who this idol was. Among the many connections in the entertainment industry, legal experts are rare.

Many netizens mocked the star-chasing fans with sarcasm: "I don't know whose good brother this is, he is going to be so disappointed now."

Wei Zhe'an knew that this was Cashew's trick. He couldn't help but roll his eyes in annoyance and secretly cursed these little devils for being so difficult to deal with.

Their strategy is very clever. Instead of breaking the news directly, they let netizens dig for themselves. The conclusions drawn in this way are often more convincing.

Moreover, no specific names were mentioned. There are many idols in the entertainment industry, and the fans of the popular ones are no pushovers. The mutual speculation and clarification among fans will undoubtedly further increase the popularity of the topic.

He looked at his roommates, decided not to mention the matter for the time being, and got up to go out and call Li Jinhe.

The two reached a consensus that there was no need to rush to make a statement at the moment. The incident had not directly affected Wei Zhe'an. They could wait and see and wait for the results of the police investigation before making a decision.

Li Jinhe has begun working with his friends to investigate Cashew and Zhang Li's company. At present, the "pimping" matter has been confirmed, and if nothing unexpected happens, Qiu Weibing will be taken away for investigation soon.

There is also the issue of taxation, which is relatively secretive and will take time.

The best way to get rid of little ghosts is to scare them away.

It is meaningless to compete with these villains who keep pestering us. It is better to give them a fatal blow so that they will never be able to turn over.

----------------------------------------------

The next morning, several people walked into the cafeteria together in the morning sunshine and had breakfast together as usual.

Tong Yang and Xu Wenbin sat at the far left and far right of the dining table respectively.

Although everything seemed normal on the surface, Wei Zhe'an was keenly aware of the deliberate distance they maintained between them.

The other roommates didn't seem to notice this subtle change in atmosphere. They ate and chatted leisurely about the practice progress of their respective groups.

Today's shooting task is relatively easy. In addition to the daily live broadcast activities, it mainly involves recording materials from the practice room.

The rehearsal time for this stage lasted for three weeks. Excluding other tasks and recording, they had at least two weeks to focus on practice, which was plenty of time.

Compared to the first performance, everyone's pressure was obviously reduced a lot.

Moreover, since there are special courses arranged every day, everyone has made some progress except for a very few people.

Therefore, the stage that seemed difficult to complete a week ago is no longer an insurmountable challenge in their eyes.

"Hey, An An, now that your plaster is removed, can you dance on the performance stage?" After Cao Fei finished his conversation with Tong Yang, he turned to Wei Zhe'an and asked with a hint of expectation.

Wei Zhe'an was eating a chicken drumstick. He shook his head gently and swallowed the food before speaking slowly: "We have already adjusted the stage once. Group B practiced with us, and there will be no more changes now."

He paused, then continued, “Maybe there will be some minor changes, but at least I won’t have to sit all the time.”

Xu Wenbin leaned back in his chair, his chin supported by his hand, and ate absentmindedly.

There was a hint of casualness in his words: "You are basically one against five in your group. If they are well trained, you should stop moving."

Wei Zhe'an looked at Xu Wenbin with some surprise.

He knew that although Xu Wenbin had a somewhat cold personality, he had been well educated. When he didn't like something, he would tend to remain silent and was definitely not a mean person.

His remarks were somewhat disrespectful to Wei Zhe'an's current teammates, and were inconsistent with his previous words and deeds.

Everyone noticed Xu Wenbin's abnormality and turned to look at him. Feeling everyone's gaze, Xu Wenbin raised his eyes nonchalantly and looked in the direction of Wei Zhe'an.

Wei Zhe'an was about to say something, but realized that Xu Wenbin's gaze was not on him, but on Tong Yang beside him.

He turned to look at Tong Yang, only to see that Tong Yang's eating movements had obviously slowed down, his eyes revealed struggle and hesitation, and he deliberately avoided looking at Xu Wenbin, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

All this happened in just a moment, but Wei Zhe'an captured it keenly.

He thought to himself that a man as smart as Xu Wenbin would actually use such a childish way to attract attention, and Tong Yang, who was usually known for his good temper, also played the cold war game.

Something must have happened between them in the hotel that day. It was very likely that Xu Wenbin did something to make Tong Yang very angry.

Zhou Hongyi was straightforward. He frowned and asked directly, "Dad Bin, what's wrong with you? It's very rude to say that."

Xu Wenbin's gaze lingered for a moment, then he turned away gently, responding with a hint of loneliness: "Sorry, I didn't mean that, I just said it without thinking."

Cao Fei tried to smooth things over when he saw this: "Well, luckily it's not live broadcast time now, let's be careful with our words, otherwise it will cause trouble if this gets out."

Xu Wenbin nodded: "Well, it's my fault. I will pay attention next time."

Wei Zhe'an had been paying attention to Tong Yang's movements. He seemed to have not heard their conversation at all, and had no intention of joining in on the topic. The subconscious little movements he had just made seemed as if they had never happened.

Although both of them were his good friends, Wei Zhe'an could clearly sense from their behavior that Tong Yang was more angry. So he decided to talk to Xu Wenbin first, hoping to resolve the misunderstanding between them.

The practice room of Tong Yang's group was on the third floor, while Xu Wenbin was on the second floor. After entering the training building, Wei Zhe'an deliberately slowed down his pace and gently pulled the corner of Xu Wenbin's clothes at the end of the team.

Xu Wenbin immediately noticed Wei Zhe'an's actions. He slowed down his pace and followed Tong Yang's figure as he went up the stairs.

After Tong Yang disappeared from his sight, he turned to face Wei Zhe'an.

Xu Wenbin looked around, raised his eyebrows slightly, and suggested: "Shall we talk outside?"
