At this moment, there was a noise at the staircase.
Shen Yurou, who was already extremely nervous, was scared out of her wits. But instead of fainting, she felt even weaker. If Zhou Wang hadn’t been holding her, she would have slipped directly to the floor.
Zhou Wang, not knowing what he had touched, unconsciously moved his finger, and Shen Yurou immediately made a strange nasal sound.
She looked at Zhou Wang with a panicked expression, but her eyes were so alluring they seemed like they could drip water, a stark contrast reminiscent of a world-class painting.
Zhou Wang could only suppress any other emotions at this moment and signaled to her with his eyes that everything was fine.
Sure enough, the noise at the staircase soon subsided, and Yun Lan’s voice could be vaguely heard: "Move your back a little more to that side... yes, that angle, don’t move!"
Only after Yun Rou and Yun Lan, who were likely taking photos on the staircase, went down laughing did Shen Yurou, who had been covering her mouth tightly, finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Were you... did you just..."
Shen Yurou, still in shock, suddenly heard Zhou Wang’s low voice, which reached her soul, as it was close to her ear.
Shen Yurou’s cheeks instantly turned bright red. She didn’t know where she found the strength, but she suddenly pushed Zhou Wang away and quickly ran down the stairs.
"Looks like it’s true."
Zhou Wang looked at the flustered Shen Yurou and finally confirmed it.
Even though Zhou Wang had seen many women’s charms, he was quite surprised in this moment, wondering just how long she had been hungry to act like this.
...
They made a circle around Erhai, stopping at a small island midway to taste the local specialty grilled fish.
However, the small chili peppers sprinkled on the fish were too spicy, and in the end, only Zhou Wang ate a whole portion.
It wasn’t that the others couldn’t handle spicy food. Zhou Wang knew they were more concerned about getting acne or something from the heat...
By the time the private yacht docked again, it was already early morning.
Riding the hotel’s shuttle back, only Zhou Wang and Miao Ying, who hadn’t touched any alcohol, were still somewhat sober.
Zhou Wang hadn’t finished the whiskey he opened, but somehow, due to the unexpectedly beautiful "sea stars" scenery, two bottles of champagne were emptied instead.
For people who aren’t good with alcohol, champagne may seem low in alcohol content, but drinking too much can still get you drunk. In fact, among the four women, even Shen Yutong, the one with the highest tolerance, was starting to look dazed.
After returning to the hotel, Zhou Wang had Miao Ying take Shen Yutong’s sisters to their room, while he brought Yun Rou and Yun Lan back to the suite.
What was interesting was that although Yun Rou and Yun Lan were a bit unsteady, they hadn’t forgotten their main job and insisted on helping Zhou Wang wash up first. It’s just that...
"Yun Rou, you haven’t squeezed the toothpaste yet..."
"Yun Lan, that towel has already been used; you just wiped my feet with it."
Watching the two sisters’ various muddled actions, Zhou Wang found it both amusing and exasperating and quickly sent them back to their room to rest.
Who could stand using a towel on your face after it’s been used on your feet?
Fortunately, Zhou Wang wasn’t that drunk; otherwise, he’d end up with his athlete’s foot all over his face.
After tidying up, Zhou Wang, dressed in a bathrobe, sat in the living room for a while, mainly dealing with unread messages on his phone.
Just after lighting a cigarette, Zhou Wang suddenly had a feeling and took out his phone, instinctively clicking on Douyin, swiping to his profile.
There, the number of "followers" prominently displayed was 999,000.
At that very moment, while Zhou Wang was watching, the number jumped again, changing from "999,000" to "1,000,000."
Ding!
At the same time, Zhou Wang heard a system prompt.
[Detected that the host’s real followers on the social platform exceeded 1 million, the reward has been issued.]
[The host has received a "Stock Fragment Gift Package" from the related platform.]
Had he finally received the first reward?
Zhou Wang nodded with satisfaction, feeling quite excited.
Although it was just some "stock fragments," given Douyin’s scale, even the lowest 0.001% equity reward would be quite significant.
For this, Zhou Wang himself had already invested millions.
The personal interface still showed 99+ private messages, but Lin Ran, who was responsible for operations, had already roughly filtered them for Zhou Wang. She highlighted those worth his attention by marking them "pinned" so Zhou Wang could notice them.
Zhou Wang opened the pinned private message from Lin Ran, and his expression showed a hint of surprise.
Because the message was from an official corporate account called "Jiuji Network."
Zhou Wang wasn’t unfamiliar with this company, as it was one of the few based in Yunnan Province that grew from e-commerce to become one of the top 100 nationwide and top ten in Yunnan Province.
Their business was simply summarized as retail services for electronic products, in layman’s terms, "selling phones."
Not only did Jiuji Network have its own independent app, but they also had over 400 offline stores, covering Southwest F4 and the Liao Province in the Northeast, with a massive scale.
The Xiaomi phone Zhou Wang used previously was bought from Jiuji Network.
What surprised Zhou Wang was that the private message from Jiuji Network’s official account hinted at a collaboration.
After calling Lin Ran, Zhou Wang finally understood the cause and effect.
It turned out that Zhou Wang’s speech at the crew earlier that afternoon was recorded by several people and posted online, causing a certain sensation in a small circle.
