69: The inexplicable Wu Wenyi

“Alright, I understand. Thank you, Sister Xiangcao,” Li Qinghe replied with a smile and walked towards that spot.

Watching his back, Xiang Cao licked her lips. It was another day without getting the man.

She really had no way with this person.

Li Qinghe quickly emerged from the changing room; the fitness outfit fit him quite well.

He walked over and communicated with Xiang Cao: “Sister Xiangcao, we’ll start filming according to your requirements in a bit.”

It turned out that this time, because of Li Qinghe's astonishing performance, the owner of California Gym had asked Xiang Cao to contact Li Qinghe to help them shoot a promotional advertisement.

Li Qinghe agreed, considering Xiang Cao and Vu Linh Huong had helped pay for two meals and given him an unlimited pass.

Some benefits don't need to be overly calculated; just treat it as helping a friend.

Li Qinghe’s connections in Vietnam were basically among these people.

“A-He, trust me, shooting this video will be beneficial,” Xiang Cao said confidently, patting Li Qinghe’s arm and giving it a squeeze.

The promotional video wasn't long. First, Xiang Cao and other female fitness coaches were doing aerobics.

Then a group of muscular male fitness coaches practiced strength in front of the camera.

Finally, the male fitness coaches spread out, revealing Li Qinghe in the center.

Li Qinghe was to perform a move: tearing off his fitness attire to reveal his perfect musculature.

To further highlight the muscle details, Li Qinghe and the coaches even applied the professional blending oil used in bodybuilding competitions all over their bodies.

The final shot was Li Qinghe doing a deadlift, gripping an extended barbell with four burly men sitting on each end.

The scene ended with Li Qinghe completing the deadlift, his entire body's muscles bulging, the surrounding light dimmed, giving it a somewhat dark, AFP-like style.

Coupled with the surrounding fitness coaches, the visual impact and sense of oppression were extremely strong.

After filming the promotional video, Li Qinghe and the coaches shot several sets of poster photos, some teaming up with male coaches, others with female coaches.

After filming, Li Qinghe and a group of fitness coaches went to the bathroom together to wash off the oil from their bodies. Since they were all men, each of them was swinging their 'big pendulums' and wiping themselves clean with makeup remover.

After Li Qinghe entered, his swinging 'big grandfather clock' instantly quieted the bathroom.

Then, a chorus of “Oh”s erupted throughout the changing room. The fitness coaches shook their heads and turned away in self-mockery, much like comparing the land area of Vietnam to that of China—there was simply no comparison.

By the time Li Qinghe had showered, changed, and walked out of the bathroom, Xiang Cao was already waiting at the door.

“Cousin-in-law, the boss is waiting for you in the office. If there’s any coach in the gym you like, I can help you set up a date.”

Li Qinghe noticed that ever since Pham Huyen My shared the big secret with Xiang Cao, Xiang Cao’s gaze and words had completely changed.

He decided he would have to punish Pham Huyen My properly when he saw her next; how could she blab everything?

What, she's a very good cousin? Even a cousin can't do that. At least five deaths would be needed to quell the fire in Li Qinghe's heart.

Xiang Cao, exuding feminine hormones, led the way. Her trained physique was indeed different from that of ordinary people, but it had no effect on Li Qinghe whatsoever.

The gym boss wanting to see him today was a bit of a surprise to Li Qinghe. These second or third-generation heirs were like a low-tier version of the Eight Banners descendants, except in an environment like Southeast Asia, these people might play even wilder.

He met this noble scion, Vu Van Nghia, in a massive, modern office.

Upon meeting, he extended his hand from afar and greeted Li Qinghe in very fluent Dragon Country People: “I’ve heard Lingxiang and Xiang Cao talk about you for a long time. I’ve been busy and haven’t had time to meet. I’m a few years older; I hope you don’t mind if I call you Qinghe.”

“How could I? Mr. Wu is too polite. You can call me Xiao Li or Qinghe.”

“Hey, just call me Brother Wu, don’t be a stranger…”

Vu Van Nghia displayed a very straightforward personality. As for whether it was genuine, coming from a noble family, it was best to assume it was genuine.

At least in front of Li Qinghe, he presented himself as approachable.

During their conversation, Li Qinghe learned that this Brother Wu, nearly thirty years old, had also studied at Jingcheng University in China. No wonder his younger sister was also arranged to study there.

Vu Van Nghia spoke of various Dragon Country People attractions and foods as if reciting them from memory. He also told Li Qinghe that he often traveled to various parts of China, tasted local delicacies, and met with his Dragon Country People classmates.

From another perspective, Vu Van Nghia’s family should be part of the faction that tends to be friendly with China; otherwise, they wouldn't send all their children to one country.

However, Li Qinghe didn't understand why Vu Van Nghia had called him over. Was it just to see him?

“Qinghe, what do you think of the beautiful women in Vietnam? Do you have a girlfriend?”

Vu Van Nghia looked at Li Qinghe with a concerned expression.

“Thank you for your concern, Brother Wu. There are many beautiful women in Vietnam, and yes, I have a girlfriend.”

Although he didn't know why Vu Van Nghia was so concerned about his personal life, Li Qinghe still answered his question honestly.

“That’s great. Have fun in Vietnam. You’re so handsome, you can have several girlfriends. I’m not tricking you; I have several myself.”

Vu Van Nghia spoke frankly with Li Qinghe and revealed his own situation.

“Uh, Brother Wu, I do have several girlfriends.”

Li Qinghe didn't want to beat around the bush anymore. He was an UP host, and with Vu Van Nghia’s status, investigating his situation wouldn't be too difficult, so it was better to admit it openly.

“Haha, young people, it’s normal. If you ever need anything, come to Brother Wu. As long as it’s not murder or arson, Brother Wu can help you sort it out.”

Vu Van Nghia gave a promise with a smile.

“Thank you, Brother Wu. I apologize, I’m a bit blunt, but I don’t accept favors without merit… Brother Wu has been a bit too caring towards me.”

In Li Qinghe’s eyes, Vu Van Nghia didn't really have any aura. Although he was a noble scion of a nation, what did that have to do with a Dragon Country People like him? Though a humble commoner, he could still be firm when necessary.

Li Qinghe's mindset had a certain confidence, like a citizen of the Celestial Empire facing foreign dignitaries.

If someone suddenly and for no reason came up and said,
