He Junhao was furious, but he couldn't directly confront the person in the comments. Fortunately, not everyone in the comments was crazy, and someone quickly refuted him.
【Have some people been watching too many short videos? They're always saying things like, "Brother, you'll become rich overnight, just handing me a fortune." Do you really think your brother is stupid? What have you done for him that he gives you everything in return?】
【Bro, I'm not a volunteer, I don't expect you to leech off me unconditionally.】
【Have you been brainwashed by the internet? Everyone's just talking, it's just a joke. People who are close will naturally support and encourage each other, unlike some people who just ask for things and then resort to moral blackmail if they don't get them.】
【This is truly hilarious. Before, they hoped for their fathers' success and wanted to inherit their vast fortunes. Now they don't even bother pretending anymore; they directly hope for their friends' success, even begging for money despite having no blood relation. What? Do their friends owe them something? If we give it to you, it's because we're good friends; if we don't, it's not a reason for you to reach out and ask. Truly a unique breed among internet beggars.】
【The internet has really spoiled a bunch of beggars. They're always finding excuses for freeloading. Friends giving them gold and silver is considered a given, and if the gift is cheap, they're labeled as fake friends. But when it's their turn to contribute, they start playing the victim and using moral blackmail. Pah!】
...
Seeing these people's comments, He Junhao finally felt a little better, and at this moment, Brother Xiao also sent him a message.
【Xiao He: Ignore what's going on online, focus on preparing for the variety show, otherwise you'll just be riding on my coattails. 【Shrug】】
He Junhao felt a little envious for some reason. He knew that Brother Xiao was joking to defuse the rumors on the internet. He sniffed and replied in the same joking tone.
【He Junhao: Dear Godfather, I will certainly not fail in my mission. 【Bango horn】】
Over here, Xiao He glanced at He Junhao's emoji and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He was worried that this simplest and purest interpersonal relationship would fall apart under the magnifying glass of netizens, and he did not want their words to put pressure on He Junhao.
Fortunately, He Junhao is now a veteran of the internet industry, having weathered many storms over the years. He has excellent mental fortitude and is genuinely determined to grit his teeth and work hard to prove himself on variety shows.

"Didn't you see the person clearly?"
Xiao He frowned slightly.
Liu Rulan said on the other end of the phone, "Yes, the driver said it was a petite girl wearing a hat, who spoke in a low voice and whose face was completely covered by a mask. He didn't know who she was."
This group of people is very professional. Since the employer clearly doesn't want their identities to be revealed, they won't actively try to find out.
Of course, faced with Liu Rulan's threatening offensive, he also shamelessly revealed the girl's whereabouts that day.
"Did you book the car while I was playing basketball?"
Xiao He carefully recalled the events of the day, but unfortunately, there were quite a few fans and passersby taking pictures of him today, and he was almost immune to the camera, so he didn't notice the existence of that stalker.
"Yes, it must have been that a fan leaked the news in some group while you were playing basketball, and she saw it. So she immediately called a driver to rush to the basketball court, and then followed you all the way from the court to the restaurant, and then followed you all the way from the restaurant to your neighborhood."
Liu Rulan, the security guard at the community gate, had given prior notice and stopped the car immediately. Unfortunately, before the security guard could check the people in the car, the driver quickly turned around and drove away.
These people are truly remarkable. When they're chasing you, they're like a persistent leech, but when they're running away, they're even more formidable.
"So, we can't find any information about this illegitimate child right now?"
Xiao He rubbed his temples, somewhat annoyed.
"This isn't the first time she's done this, is it?"
"I don't know about that, but I haven't seen any trace of her before, so she's very likely a new fan." Liu Rulan sighed. "Besides, you've been busy with public events or filming recently, and you've only recently had some free time. Even if she wanted to pursue you, she would have had very few opportunities, right?"
Xiao He: "...That's true."
“We have already warned this driver, and he will also keep an eye out for him for us.”
Liu Rulan continued, "People like them are always fearless, like a dead pig that isn't afraid of boiling water. Since there's no substantial evidence this time, we can only leave it at that for now."
Xiao He shrugged: "I understand."
To put it bluntly, these things are like scalpers. If you don't support their business, they will ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) naturally go out of business. But people keep coming to support them, and they are blinded by money, becoming more and more rampant.
Ultimately, all parties involved bear some responsibility in this matter.
However, right now, the stalker who suddenly appeared is clearly a bigger headache.
"What about online? Have any suspected stalker fans posted photos or videos of today's stalking?"
“We have been paying close attention to this, but the public opinion has just started to ferment, many passers-by have taken photos of you, and that stalker has only been gone for a short time, so it will probably take some time to screen and confirm.”
"Okay, I understand."
Xiao He sighed helplessly.
He knew that this time there probably wouldn't be any results for the time being.
Furthermore, while they are now calling the other party a stalker, apart from following them all day today, no other overstepping behavior has been observed so far.
"You should rest first. I'll let you know if anything happens," Liu Rulan reassured her from the other end. "These are all very normal things, you don't need to worry about them."
"OK."
As if he had thought of something, Xiao He said to himself with a self-deprecating smile, "Looks like I really need to turn a blind eye when I take a shower these days."
The person on the other end of the phone suppressed a laugh: "...Do as you please."
...
In the following period, Xiao He began to prepare for the birthday party.
Just as Liu Rulan said, Xiao He decided to do something different for his birthday party this time, which was to put on a stage play.
Although he made it sound so easy, Xiao He was still a bit dumbfounded when he actually saw the script.
"Multiple personalities? Twelve different characters? How am I supposed to portray that on stage?"
"Smack—"
Xiao He's acting teacher, An Chengguang, rolled up the script and smacked Xiao He on the head: "You have no ambition. It's just twelve personalities. It's not like you're asked to act them all out in one go."
Xiao He: "...Teacher, please don't say such terrifying things in such a nonchalant way!"
Twelve personalities! Leaving aside the antisocial ones, at least those are mature men. Besides them, there's a six-year-old girl, a rebellious eighteen-year-old girl, and even a frail old man... Xiao He really can't do it!
It's no longer a question of whether he can do it or not; it's a question of whether his performance will be embarrassing for the audience.
That was a live, live performance! It wasn't a film set where a scene could be NG (take a wrong turn) at any moment!
Take that child and the girl for example, if he doesn't act convincingly, the whole set will explode!
No, to be precise, he couldn't possibly act that out! He's not Sun Wukong, or Martin Luther King Jr., who can transform into anything.
Xiao He was already about to explode.
He throws a birthday party to pamper his fans, not to disgust them!
Delete it! It must be deleted!
