Soon.

The electric scooter arrived at the entrance of Qinglin Villa.

"This isn't Fuhai Villa? Why did the name change?" Qin Ren asked, confused. He had been here with Qin Lin before, back when they weren't even done with college, and had visited for a summer party.

As Qin Lin's electric scooter stopped in front of the lobby, Gao Yaoyao, dressed to the nines and looking stunning, rushed forward. "Boss!"

"Linzi, this girl's good... Wait, boss?" Qin Ren, who had habitually focused on the pretty girl, suddenly realized. "Linzi, you're the owner of this villa? Qinglin Villa, no wonder it's called that."

"Da Ren, let's go. We'll check out the filming location. And this girl is Gao Yaoyao; she's modeling for us today." Qin Lin called out and led Qin Ren into the Bougainvillea Sea.

"Holy crap!" Qin Ren was stunned by the sea of flowers before him. "Linzi, you did this?"

"Yeah! Just finished it," Qin Lin nodded.

"Linzi, you're amazing!" Qin Ren exclaimed in admiration.

He knew his friend's family situation very well, so the sudden appearance of this spectacle was incredibly shocking to him.

How much money did this sea of flowers cost?

However, he didn't pry further; asking too many questions would change the mood. After all, everyone has their own opportunities. Maybe his friend won the lottery, or someone invested in him.

Qin Lin smiled. "Da Ren, I wanted to ask your studio to shoot a promotional video and photos of this flower sea."

"Ah..." Qin Ren's face fell. "I can't do this alone!"

Qin Lin knew this and smiled. "I'll place an order with your studio. Remember to give me a discount!"

"Not only a discount, but the best service. And don't forget to give us a five-star review." Qin Ren didn't waste time and immediately called back on his phone.

He really couldn't handle this job alone, and he knew Qin Lin was looking out for his business, so he definitely had to do a great job.

Meanwhile, Qin Lin noticed Gao Yaoyao, who was trailing behind, giggling at her phone. He curiously asked, "What are you so happy about?"

Gao Yaoyao snapped back to attention at Qin Lin's question. "Boss, if I register the trademark for You City's rouguangbing, can I eat rouguangbing at the shops in You City without paying? They'd be using my trademark."

Qin Lin was taken aback. "Uh! What are you thinking? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"

Gao Yaoyao shrunk her head. "I'm just kidding! I just saw a video of someone registering a trademark for a roujiamo and suing hundreds of roujiamo shops nationwide, demanding 99,800 yuan in compensation from each."

"What?" Qin Lin looked incredulous.

How much money would that be if they won? Tens of millions in an instant – that's easier than his business with no capital.

It's true that villains aren't scary, but educated villains are.

He even felt the urge to register the trademark for You City's rouguangbing, and for the Guanguan Zao Cai Noodles and pig's head meat too!

But that was just a thought. He'd get beaten up for real, and the authorities would definitely step in. Maybe someone would have to face legal consequences, otherwise, people would just follow suit, and society would descend into chaos.

After Qin Ren made his call, three partners from his studio soon arrived.

The three were also very surprised when they arrived at the villa and saw the Bougainvillea Sea.

They initially thought Qin Ren was just doing a small favor for a friend, but who knew his friend would be so generous and offer such a big order?

Why didn't they have brothers like that?

However, after helping Qin Lin film the Bougainvillea Sea, Qin Ren and his partners were even more shocked.

If the aerial shots from the outside made the sea of flowers captivating, then entering it, especially towards the center, was increasingly incredible.

Particularly in the central area, with the cooperation of the villa's model, they found that the videos and photos they took had a poetic and picturesque quality, with a visual appeal that was almost artistic.

One partner exclaimed, "Qin Ren, nice work! Your filming technique has improved; this looks like the work of a master."

"It's just too beautiful here," Qin Ren said with a smile. It was the first time he had ever captured such perfect promotional videos and photos.

Especially when filming the three most beautiful bougainvillea plants, the resulting videos and photos looked no worse than those by top masters.

Of course, he didn't know it was because these bougainvillea plants had game stat buffs.

Those three bougainvillea plants had a +3 bonus to "camera presence."

"Linzi, we'll work overtime tonight and get the promotional video and advertisement photos done for you. You can use them tomorrow," Qin Ren promised Qin Lin as he was leaving.

Back at the studio, Qin Ren told his partners, "Everyone, let's work overtime tonight. Don't let me embarrass myself in front of my brother."

The others smiled and agreed.

They weren't stupid either. While filming, they had a feeling that this bougainvillea sea was going to be a hit. The promotional videos and advertisement photos they were taking would be a form of self-promotion for them as well, so they had to make them as perfect as possible.

Evening.

Liao Li arrived with her cousin Chu Na. Seeing the video her fiancé was editing, she was amazed. "Honey, where was this filmed? It's so beautiful!"

Even Chu Na looked curious. "Is there such a beautiful place in our You City?"

Just seeing the video was so stunning; how beautiful must it be in person?

Qin Ren, seeing his fiancée ask, said proudly, "Xiao Li, let me tell you, Qin Lin has been hiding his talents. He's got a villa, and he created this bougainvillea sea. Those bougainvillea plants don't look ordinary. That 30-mu area must be worth at least a few million. This kid is something else."

His words were full of admiration and happiness for his friend, which made Liao Li incredulous.

She knew her fiancé's childhood friend's family situation.

However, Chu Na felt something was off.

Did I misjudge him?

Liao Li didn't want to disturb her fiancé while he was working, so she pulled her cousin to the side to play on their own.

Chu Na, however, said somewhat eagerly, "Lili, can you send me Qin Lin's WeChat?"

Liao Li said playfully, "Cousin, didn't you say last time you were just joking?"

Chu Na said dismissively, "But I didn't know his situation then, did I? What woman wouldn't want to find someone with good conditions?"

Liao Li was helpless and could only send her cousin Qin Lin's WeChat.

Chu Na immediately and impatiently added him.

On the other side, Qin Lin quickly received a WeChat friend request with the note, 'Liao Li's cousin, can we be friends?'.

This made him frown. Why would Liao Li's cousin add him out of the blue?

He clicked on her Moments. Although the photos were heavily edited, he could vaguely make out that it was the girl next to Liao Li.

The difference between her real appearance and the photos was like a whole plastic surgery.

However, he understood. After all, the person who hadn't said anything about adding WeChat after two meetings suddenly added him.

Since Moqing came along, he never added women on WeChat unless it was a special circumstance. This was out of respect for Zhao Moqing, so he decisively wanted to reject the request. But then he thought, she was Liao Li's cousin, so he replied tactfully, "Sorry, my wife doesn't allow me to add other women!"

On the other side, Liao Li's cousin was completely stunned. "Lili, why didn't you tell me Qin Lin was married?"

"???" Liao Li was also stunned. If Qin Lin were married, Qin Ren would definitely know, and he wasn't married at all.

However, she understood that Qin Lin had guessed her cousin's intentions and was tactfully refusing. She couldn't help but shake her head and didn't correct her cousin.

Her cousin was a bit of a "country girl" who was out of touch with reality. After beautifying her photos in her Moments and getting a few likes and compliments from men she wasn't too familiar with, she thought she had good conditions.

She was already an old maid, yet she was still thinking of finding a young, handsome, and rich man, but those kinds of men simply didn't fancy her.
