"Zhao Xiaodao's TV series has premiered?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"You've been away for a month; summer vacation has already started. How could it not premiere?"

"How's the response?"

"Very good." Lin Wan thought for a moment, then added, "Very popular."

Lu Zheng opened Weibo, and two topics were trending.

"Not bad, one is probably sponsored, and the other one seems to have climbed up on its own, right?"

"That I don't know."

...

Early in the morning, Lu Zheng woke up to his phone buzzing. He opened it to find various platforms pushing news about "Biluo Song," just realizing that Zhao Xiaodao's new series had premiered.

Lin Wan also woke up, responded to Lu Zheng with two words, then got out of bed. She put on a thin silk nightgown, her long legs impossible to hide, and casually opened the curtains.

"Wow, it's already nine o'clock?"

Lu Zheng looked at the bright sunlight pouring in from outside and checked his phone time, only to realize he had slept in today.

Lin Wan gave Lu Zheng a playful wink, pouted, and opened the room door, seeing Si Lingxi and the other two women already in the living room.

"Awake?" Shen Ying looked over and smiled ambiguously, "You must be exhausted. Qingyan made breakfast, it's still hot."

Lin Wan's face reddened instinctively, but she was used to it. She thanked them and went to sit by the dining table.

Lu Zheng in the bedroom began with a seal technique, first using the "Profound Turtle Water Control True Spirit Secret Technique" to tidy up the battlefield, then employed the "Phoenix Divine Fire Curse" to dry the bedding, and finally performed the White Cloud Temple's Dust-removal Technique and Transportation Technique to clean up the room.

In less than half a minute, what was previously a mess, as if after a whole night battle, was completely renewed.

He stepped out, seeing Si Lingxi and the two women each holding a phone and browsing online.

"What are you looking at?"

Lu Zheng leaned closer to Shen Ying and saw her browsing some short videos of young women.

"What's so interesting about this?"

"Just passing the time." Shen Ying said casually, scrolling on her phone, "Looking at what people appreciate nowadays."

Lu Zheng shook his head helplessly, not bothering Liu Qingyan and Si Lingxi but instead went to sit beside Lin Wan for breakfast.

While eating an egg, Lin Wan seemed to remember something, suddenly asking, "By the way, do you remember Liu Yutong?"

"Liu Yutong?"

Lu Zheng arched a brow, "She's Gu Tingting's friend. What happened... Did her ex-boyfriend really cause trouble?"

Lin Wan nodded, "Yes, his mindset is getting worse, beginning to pester Liu Yutong."

Lu Zheng frowned, asking, "Such things are common among young people, right? Will it escalate to newsworthy levels?"

"I don't know." Lin Wan shrugged, "She says her ex-boyfriend wants to reconcile. Although she keeps refusing, she always tries to persuade him politely.

Until a week ago, he saw her getting close to another guy and started acting out, and three days ago, after another refusal, he became somewhat emotional."

"Three days ago, did you go?"

Lin Wan nodded, "It's almost certain such a situation wouldn't warrant police involvement, so she messaged me, and I went once."

"And then?"

"And then, of course, he admitted his mistake, saying he'd never trouble her again."

"Oh, that's good!" Lu Zheng nodded, not particularly concerned.

Most young people act impulsively due to hot-headedness; a warning from the police usually restores their rationality, and things settle down.

"Hey, doesn't this scenario look familiar? I think I've seen this somewhere else?" Shen Ying interjected.

"It's from a few years back, a fairly popular event, but the incident happened in Japan." Si Lingxi responded.

"No." Lin Wan shook her head, "The Japanese case drew national attention because it affected innocent people and the perpetrator's behavior was exceptionally vile.

In reality, crimes of passion, both domestically and internationally, are quite frequent, but rarely affect others, so they don't usually make the news unless it's a brief news report."

"We should remind Liu Yutong to be careful." Liu Qingyan voiced her concern, "In case he acts recklessly."

Lin Wan nodded, "I already warned her, and she's graduated, got her diploma, and moved back home."

"That's great."

With that, Lu Zheng finished his milk, "Okay, I'm done eating; let's go shopping!"

...

After spending a few days at White Cloud Mountain, hiding in Hai City for a few days, and spending ten days to eliminate Divine Monarch Xuan Ruo, it's time for a proper break.

So, in the morning, everyone went to the mall, bought some summer clothes, had hotpot for lunch, watched a movie in the afternoon, and by evening, found themselves at the Inner River Square Pier. They rented a yacht, parked in the middle of the river, enjoying the breeze and drinks.

While chatting, Lu Zheng noticed advertisements for the Twelve Zodiac Animal Head Bronze Sculptures being displayed on the skyscrapers across the river.

"Oh, what's this? Is the Twelve Zodiac Animal Head Bronze Sculptures exhibition coming to Hai City?"

"Yes." Lin Wan nodded, "Now that it's summer, the Twelve Zodiac Animal Head Bronze Sculptures tour has started, and Hai City is its next stop next week. Do you want to go check it out?"

Lu Zheng shook his head, "There'll be a lot of people, I reckon; moreover, these sculptures were returned by us. We've seen them in Beidu last time."

"There are other exhibits, and Sister Lingxi hasn't seen them; it'll be like a break." Lin Wan took her handbag, "Plus, my unit gave me tickets for the tour; I got five."

Lu Zheng chuckled, "You already have tickets, so no need to book."

"Exactly!" Lin Wan opened her handbag and took out five tickets.

Lu Zheng received one, noticing the ticket was quite finely made.

"Alright, let's go have a look."

"What's this?" Liu Qingyan asked, "Why is there a piece of fabric?"

It turned out that when Lin Wan took the tickets out, she also drew out a palm-sized piece of fabric from her handbag.

Lin Wan's eyes gleamed, "This is a piece of Liu Yutong's ex-boyfriend's clothing. He was a bit impulsive at the time, so I gave him a little lesson."

Liu Qingyan laughed, covering her mouth, "Looks like it was quite a lesson."

Lin Wan shrugged, helpless, "It's just that his clothes were really poor quality; I had to compensate him 500 bucks."

Lu Zheng laughed, shaking his head, then grabbed the piece of fabric, thought for a moment, and patted the shrunken gourd at his waist, taking out the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror.

"Since we're free, let me see what he's up to now." Lu Zheng said.

Lin Wan was speechless, waved her hand, "Check for yourself first without letting us see anything inappropriate."

"It's only a bit past nine; it won't be anything like that."

Lu Zheng shook his head, casually casting a spell, and the clouds in the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror dispersed, revealing the image of a man.
