In the WeChat group chat, just as Si Jiao Ji and several other well-known UP owners were chatting, Jiang Qiuyi spoke up.

Qiuqiu yiyi: I know the person you're looking for.

Dao Dao Zi: Huh? Who is it? Rarely seen in a century. (Wacky face emoji)

Li Yuan Jiang: Qiuqiu knows this new UP owner? Is he your friend?

Qiuqiu yiyi: Yes, I recommended he start using Bilibili. Should I pull him into the group? @Si Jiao Ji

Si Jiao Ji: Is the person okay?

Qiuqiu yiyi: Don't worry, I know him in real life.

Si Jiao Ji: Then pull him in. Big shots in the crafting section are quite rare.

After getting the group owner's approval, Jiang Qiuyi immediately jumped out of bed and ran to Chen Wen's workshop.

Chen Wen happened to be resting at the moment, and Jiang Qiuyi quickly gave him a brief overview of the situation.

"So someone is looking for me?" Chen Wen summarized. "Can't they just add me on WeChat directly?"

"They could, but..." Jiang Qiuyi patiently explained, "most of the UP owners in this group have over a hundred thousand followers, and many have hundreds of thousands or even millions."

"Also, they all live near Hu City and usually keep in touch. They generally don't just add people randomly."

"This is a rare opportunity. You should join and get acquainted. It definitely won't hurt."

Chen Wen didn't really care either way and obediently scanned the QR code, entering the WeChat group named "Modu Behind-the-Scenes Bosses."

-- "Ill-informed Wen" joined the group chat by scanning the QR code shared by "Qiuqiu yiyi."

Dao Dao Zi: Welcome, crafting section big shot!!!

Li Yuan Jiang: Welcome, crafting section big shot!!!

As soon as a new member joined, the real big shots started pretending to be newbies, acting as if they had admired him for a long time.

Ill-informed Wen: Hello everyone.

Chen Wen didn't react to this, just offered a very stiff greeting.

Qiuqiu yiyi: Just call him Xiao Wen.

Si Jiao Ji: Wen-ge! Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!

Ill-informed Wen: Were you looking for me?

Si Jiao Ji: Yes, yes, yes! My little sister watched your video about the rings, and now several of her rings can't be used to swipe cards. She wants to ask you why.

Ill-informed Wen: I need to know her entire process, otherwise, I can't judge.

The "Meal Card Ring Transformation" craft actually involves a lot of small bits of knowledge from various subjects.

Although they are all relatively simple, if an outsider tries to replicate it step-by-step, they might miss a small detail and cause the chip inside to become unusable.

Si Jiao Ji: Which district are you in Hu City? If it's convenient, can we meet tomorrow, the weekend? I'll have my little sister bring the items, and you can teach her in person.

Seeing this, Chen Wen looked at Jiang Qiuyi and asked, "Is this person reliable?"

"Si Jiao Ji is a pretty famous second-generation rich kid in Hu City. He should be trustworthy," Jiang Qiuyi said. "I've met him a few times at comic conventions. He's quite nice, not arrogant at all."

"Is he male or female?"

"Male."

Although Chen Wen didn't understand why a guy would choose a name like "XX Ji," he nodded and continued to reply on his phone.

Ill-informed Wen: Sure, you can come directly to my place. I'm working on Elucidator recently and don't want to waste time.

Jiang Qiuyi: "?"

"Why are you inviting someone to your home?"

Chen Wen was taken aback. "Is that not okay?"

"It's not that it's not okay..." Jiang Qiuyi pouted. "Si Jiao Ji is male, but his sister is female."

Hearing Jiang Qiuyi say this, Chen Wen fell silent. He rubbed his chin and looked at Jiang Qiuyi, asking curiously, "Is this jealousy?"

"Who's jealous?!" Jiang Qiuyi's eyes widened, and she crossed her arms, turning her head away. "Hmph! It's just a small matter like this, I'm not that petty!"

Si Jiao Ji: No problem. Send me the address privately. I'll bring my little sister to find you tomorrow.

Ill-informed Wen: Okay.

After seeing the two of them finalize the arrangements, Jiang Qiuyi put aside her thoughts and earnestly instructed, "Be polite to the guests tomorrow. It might even increase your followers."

"Huh?" Chen Wen was stunned, wondering what politeness had to do with gaining followers.

"Oh, UP owners like them, if they encounter anything new, they'll definitely record it with their cameras," Jiang Qiuyi explained. "If the footage is good, they'll edit it into a video and upload it."

"A theme like Si Jiao Ji's sister would definitely have many fans willing to pay for it. If you get more screen time and perform well, you'll definitely attract some viewers."

Chen Wen nodded. "I understand."

He didn't really care about gaining followers. He was just happy that someone was willing to put in the effort to imitate his work, and even came to him for advice.

Chen Wen was forced to chat with Si Jiao Ji for a while after privately sending her his address and agreeing on a time.

Si Jiao Ji: My sister has a crush on a male classmate at school and asked me to make a ring for her using his meal card, so that's why I'm in such a hurry this time. Please forgive me.

Ill-informed Wen: It's fine.

Si Jiao Ji: There's something I'd like to ask your opinion on first. I want to film the process tomorrow for a video. Is it okay to film in your home?

Ill-informed Wen: Don't film the exterior of the complex, but you can film inside freely.

Si Jiao Ji: No problem! Thanks, Wen-ge!

He really isn't arrogant at all, very easy to talk to... Chen Wen thought, putting away his phone to end his break and continue working on the Elucidator.

Jiang Qiuyi didn't disturb him. She slipped back into her bedroom and privately messaged Si Jiao Ji on WeChat.

Qiuqiu yiyi: Just wanted to give you a heads-up about something.

Si Jiao Ji: What is it?

Qiuqiu yiyi: Ill-informed Wen is quite straightforward and doesn't talk much. He's not very sociable, so I'd appreciate it if you could be a little more understanding tomorrow.

Si Jiao Ji: It's fine, I'm the one troubling him in the first place.

Qiuqiu yiyi: By the way, I didn't know you had a sister before. How old is she?

Si Jiao Ji: My younger sister was attending high school in Hangzhou before. She only came here to start university last year, so it's normal you didn't know.

Qiuqiu yiyi: Oh, oh, is she at your university too?

Si Jiao Ji: No, she got into Cai Da.

Cai Da?!

Jiang Qiuyi instantly became alert.

Isn't that the same university as Chen Wen?

However, when she thought about the reason her sister wanted the ring made – because she had a crush on a male classmate – Jiang Qiuyi calmed down.

Si Jiao Ji will be here tomorrow, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Thinking about Chen Wen's personality, Jiang Qiuyi felt even more at ease.

If she hadn't decided to take the initiative, Chen Wen probably would never have realized that his childhood friend had feelings for him since they were little.

With that thought, Jiang Qiuyi sighed and continued her reply.

Qiuqiu yiyi: Ill-informed Wen is also at Cai Da. He's a junior this year, so he's technically your sister's senior.

Si Jiao Ji: What a coincidence? I thought it was an engineering university.

Qiuqiu yiyi: In any case, if he says anything offensive tomorrow, I apologize on his behalf in advance.

Si Jiao Ji: You're too kind. Giving me a heads-up like this, do you two have some kind of relationship?

Qiuqiu yiyi: (Goodbye.JPG)

[Pu Jie Ri Ji]: My mom dragged me into moving furniture today, and now my whole body is weak. I haven't even had dinner yet, so this is probably the only update I'll manage. I thought I'd have some drafts saved before school started, but I can't even keep up with normal updates. I was already writing cautiously at the beginning, so I can't speed things up. Now it's really a rhythm of one update every two days... I feel like it would be more convenient to write in my dorm after school starts, instead of being dragged off to do manual labor...

[Special Theater]: I'll probably do a short skit. I'll see if I have time tonight. If not, I'll add it later.
