"Sis, can you find someone else to tease? I'm busy."

"Brother, I'm serious, I'm not being abstract!"

"That won't do. A talented person like you not working on abstract art would be a huge loss to the field."

Xu Yi glanced at the caller ID and said speechlessly.

Is she feigning distress?

So, you've gotten your abstract ideas into my brother's area?

He'd be a fool of that!

"Brother, you're so capable, can you help me think of a solution?"

Huang Lu sounded unusually depressed on the phone.

Xu Yi remained silent.

Girl, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I'm not a magic wand. Do you think abstract art is so easy to change?

This is the factory setting; how could it possibly be changed unless a carbon-based life cooler is used?

Don't believe me?

Don't believe me? Let someone who lacks an abstract mind try writing an abstract joke.

This is the initial setup; without investing any points in abstraction, you'll never be able to achieve abstraction in your entire life!

"Say something!"

Huang Lu's voice rang out again, and she began to exert pressure.

Xu Yi remained silent.

Isn't this asking the impossible? But what can he do when Huang Lu is his number one fan?

"Huang Lu, let's do a test first. If it works, it means there's still hope for you!"

Huang Lu's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"An abstract challenge? That's interesting!"

Xu Yi remained silent, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

Is it already this abstract before it even starts?

"Huh? An abstract challenge? I'm not having it! We want to participate too!"

"Finally, I can reveal my hidden strength. This is interesting!"

"Daring to do abstract challenges, isn't that disrespecting us netizens?"

Upon hearing the word "abstract" in the Livestream Room, a chaotic frenzy immediately ensued.

Xu Yi's eyes rolled back as he looked at it.

Disagree?

Hiding strength?

Young netizens, you really don't know your place!

Listen to the question!

If you see a fly while eating, what would you say to the waiter?

Xu Yi the first question.

The audience's answers were varied and diverse.

"Finding a fly in your food and expecting me to complain? I'd slap him across the face!"

"I want my meal free! No! I want triple compensation!"

"These are all normal demands, but they don't seem abstract, do they?"

"How more abstract can it be? I refuse to believe there's any abstract answer!"

A barrage of questioning comments flooded the screen, expressing dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Xu Yi immediately pressed the speakerphone button, and Huang Lu's reply came through the phone.

"Witt, could you please ask this flight attendant to leave for me?"

[Shock Points +100]

Silent!

Then came screams!

"Wow! How can someone be so witty?"

"How did they connect these? That's incredibly talented!"

"This child is indeed the child of abstraction!"

With just one question, netizens were captivated.

Xu Yi looked at the praise in the live chat and expressed his sympathy.

Getting this excited at such a basic level? This is still very early on.

Huang Lu is Abstract Little Sister, and that's not just something he said offhand; this girl's abstractness is truly ingrained in her very being.

Question 2!

"I'm so frustrated! I've already revised the plan ten times, why do I have to change it again? I can only cram at the last minute!"

"Still trying to cram at the last minute? Are you sure you're not obsessed with cheap rent?"

[Shock Points +200]

Question 3!

"I have a stomach ache!"

"It's my period! Sweep away the hunger, be yourself again!"

[Shock Points +500]

Question 4!

"Extra spicy seaweed..."

"Stop doing it, bro. I admit, I'm really too abstract."

Huang Lu stared blankly for a moment, then let out a silly laugh and hung up the phone.

Isn't abstraction good?

In this version of Earth OL, while lying down and playing passively is not bad, the Abstract card is an SSR card destined for good fortune! And it doesn't even consider your background, making it the perfect identity for a commoner to turn their life around!

"Waaaaah, so abstract, it's just too abstract!"

I want to be an abstract genius too!

"If I could abstract, wouldn't I be making a fortune?"

The Livestream Room was filled with wailing and howling, but Xu Yi frowned.

What happened to Huang Lu?

Short of money? Impossible!

When it comes to wealth, Huang Lu's family is incredibly powerful!

If it's not money, then what is it?

Surely someone isn't bullying Huang Lu? Don't be ridiculous. This girl can scare a rich young master so badly he wets his pants. If she doesn't bully others, who would dare to bully her?

"Xu Yi, can I really be your assistant?"

On the other side, Liu Qingling saw that Xu Yi had finally hung up the phone, and asked him again with some unease.

She was so happy just now, but now that she's calmed down, she suddenly feels a little uneasy.

Xu Yi is too good to her, isn't he?

"Of course, Actors Please Take Your Place Production Crew. Navigate there and tell them you're my full-time assistant, and ask them to speed things up. I'm waiting to film the movie."

Xu Yi said, his mind preoccupied with Huang Lu, and casually gave Liu Qingling a few more instructions before immediately leaving.

Liu Qingling's eyes widened as she watched Xu Yi's retreating figure.

Movie?

Xu Yi is actually going to make a movie, and I've become the Director's assistant?

Wow, I've actually entered the entertainment industry! Does that mean I can get away with anything...?

Wait a minute, I've heard about the unspoken rules governing Actor, but can male Actor also engage in such practices?

Wait a minute, a female Director sexually harasses a male Actor —who's really taking advantage of whom?

Liu Qingling was caught in a dilemma!

Huang Lu's location was not difficult to find.

Xu Yi made a few phone calls and confirmed Huang Lu's location; she was drowning her sorrows in a bar.

Inside the bar, neon lights flashed, and demons roamed freely!

Huang Lu sat alone in the VIP box, with more than a dozen empty bottles on the table.

Impressive alcohol tolerance!

Wait, why is this Wahaha?

Good amount of water... Anyway, Xu Yi knew he couldn't possibly drink that much Wahaha!

Huang Lu leaned against the window, her gaze unfocused, lost in thought. She didn't even hear Xu Yi enter the room.

Xu Yi stood beside her, waving his hands.

What are you looking at? A handsome guy is here! Don't you know what's the focus?

"Little sister, what's wrong?"

Huang Lu turned to look at Xu Yi, and before she could say anything, tears started streaming down her face.

"Brother, what do you think about me shaving my head and becoming a nun in a nunnery?"

Huang Lu made a surprising statement.

Xu Yi was caught off guard and almost peed his pants in fright.

Physically speaking, I was so scared I peed my pants!

"Hey sis, have you been watching too much Arno and gotten a pointy head and become stupid? We can joke around, but don't go overboard and make fun of your hair!"

Xu Yi quickly grabbed a glass of ice water, dipped it in the water, and touched Huang Lu's forehead, thinking that Huang Lu was possessed.

Huang Lu shivered from the cold, finally came to her senses, and stopped crying.

[Negative emotions +100]

"Brother, even if she's doing abstract art, can't you play along and let her pretend to be a melancholy young lady for once? Does being abstract mean you can't show your true feelings?"

Huang Lu was dissatisfied. She was under a lot of pressure on a daily basis, and only with Xu Yi could she relax and show some of her true nature. Why was Xu Yi so unreliable?

Of course, she didn't want Xu Yi either!

"Unworthy!"

Xu Yi sneered and asserted.

I don't believe it!

"Then let me ask you this: if someone confessed their feelings to you, what would you say?"

"Thanks for the thought of me, bro, and then I just casually posted it online... Oh well, never mind!"

Xu Yi snorted coldly, about to speak, but his gaze fell on what Huang Lu was holding.

Invitation?

Whose invitation is this?

What is this?

Xu Yi asked.

Huang Lu casually tossed the invitation into the trash can, then uttered a surprising remark.

Someone arranged a marriage for me Childhood Betrothal, and they're pressuring me to marry.
