Wang Xiaoliang and Luo Bisheng had been run off their feet lately.
The two had fully switched to working around the clock. Their short video accounts needed content, and they filmed one skit after another. They had to build up a backlog while in Fucheng, or a gap in updates would not only affect their accounts' ranking weight but also let down the fans who loved them.
They also had to visit Tang Heihu's grilled wing stall every day.
They had returned the Lexus 570 to Liu Xinyu. After using it for several years, they really were reluctant to part with it. Men grew attached to their cars.
After the New Year, at Chen Zhifei's suggestion, the two decided to buy a car together. After discussing it, they chose a Toyota Alphard.
The car belonged to Xiaosheng Media and would stay in Fucheng, making it easier to pick people up and see them off.
A few days later, Tang Heihu's latest short video was released.
This one continued in the same style as before.
Dressed in period costume with his face painted pitch-black, Tang Heihu sat squarely before a wooden table, legs spread.
An enormous bowl sat on the table.
Chopsticks in hand, Tang Heihu was eating at a leisurely pace.
A voice sounded off camera. "Tang Heihu, what are you eating there?"

The off-camera voice immediately asked, "Is it good?"
Tang Heihu grew nervous, visibly picking up speed as he stuffed food into his mouth.
This part of the footage had been sped up. He seemed to eat faster and faster, wolfing everything down, his cheeks bulging as he poured soup and all into his stomach. He looked as though he feared someone beside him
