Chapter 1583

It was the weekend .

In the morning .

Old Wu took a rare day off from work while Sisi was on summer break from kindergarten . The mother and daughter were up early in the morning, leaving Zhang Ye still lazing in bed . He wouldn’t get up no matter what .

“Daddy, Daddy . ”

“What is it?”

“Daddy, get up . ”

“Let your father sleep another two hours . ”

“Mommy said that you aren’t a good child if you laze around in bed . ”

“Daddy is not a child . ”

“Get up quickly, Daddy . ”

“Then come and give Daddy a kiss . ”

Zhang Ye was being shameless .

Sisi was getting anxious .

Wu Zeqing slowly walked to the bedside and said with a smile, “How are you not a child? You’re a child through and through . How old are you? Shouldn’t you be setting an example to our child? Hur hur . ” She then carried Sisi onto the bed . “Give Daddy a kiss and ask him to get up . ”

Sisi gave Zhang Ye a kiss .

Zhang Ye turned over and said, “Your Mommy has to give me a kiss as well . ”

Wu Zeqing smiled and lowered her head to kiss him as well . “There . ”

Yawning, Zhang Ye finally stretched himself and sat up in bed . His outstretched arms wrapped around his wife and daughter and he hugged them . “Say, this bro’s days are so comfortable . Every day is such a wonderful day . I wouldn’t exchange such a life even if I were offered the position of president . ” He then took his cell phone from the bedside table and opened the camera app . He selected the selfie mode and said, “Quick, let’s take a family picture together . ”

Wu Zeqing smiled and said, “But I haven’t washed up yet . ”

Zhang Ye said, “My wife is good-looking even if she hasn’t washed her face yet . ”

“Oh, you . ” Wu Zeqing was left with no choice .

When Sisi saw herself on the screen, she revealed a very cute look .

Kacha!

Zhang Ye laughed heartily and said, “It’s done . I’ll put it up on Moments!”

With just a few taps, he uploaded it .

Almost instantly, quite a few people in his Moments liked the picture .

Yao Jiancai replied: ” Sharenting 1 ?”

Fan Wenli replied: “Minister Wu is so beautiful!”

Ning Lan replied: “You’re showing off your wife and sharenting so early in the morning? Should you really be doing this?”

The deputy station head of Central TV replied: “Your daughter is so cute . ”

Xiaodong replied: “Wow, Sisi is such a good girl . I want to give her a kiss! *drooling emote*”

Amy replied: “Minister Wu still looks so good without her makeup? So jealous *tableflip emoticon*”

The response was very enthusiastic .

Zhang Ye was very happy .

This was exactly the effect he wanted!

As a result, this fellow was getting the hang of this feeling . After breakfast, Wu Zeqing started playing with Sisi . They would go out into the yard to play on the swing, water the plants, play with Sisi’s new toys, and let her try on her new clothes . Wu Zeqing was unlike Zhang Ye . Zhang Ye’s enthusiasm would only last a short while . He could play with the child crazily for half an hour before feeling tired and pulling himself out of the situation . But Old Wu could play with the child for an entire day, even squeezing in cooking in between . She was meticulous as a person . Perhaps this was the difference between a father and a mother .

The mother and daughter were happily playing while Zhang Ye took pictures of them . Sometimes, he would take pictures of his wife, and sometimes, he would take pictures of his daughter .

Five pictures .

Ten pictures .

A hundred pictures .

His Moments started filling up with his posts .

The text that he posted along with the pictures were also particularly poetic .

“Mommy is the best in the world . ”

Tap, tap, tap . He attached nine photos of Old Wu to the post .

“My daughter is a good little girl . ”

Tap, tap, tap . He attached nine photos of Sisi to the post .

“Mother and daughter are my two treasures . ”

Tap, tap, tap . He attached nine photos of Old Wu and Sisi to the post .

“While Daddy is only a blade of grass . ”

Tap! He attached a single photo of himself nestled in a corner .

The people on Zhang Ye’s Moments were going crazy .

His eldest younger sister: “Pfft, Brother is obsessively posting pictures of his wife!”

His third sister commented: “And also obsessively posting his daughter’s pictures too!”

Grandma Zhang Xia commented: “Little Zhang has gone crazy . ”

His mother commented: “Why are you posting so many updates? Do you have nothing better to do?”

At the beginning, everyone was liking his posts and replying to them . After all, Zhang Ye didn’t usually post much on Moments . But when he posted his 10th post on Moments, the number of people liking it had become significantly fewer . By the time he reached his 20th post, barely anyone gave him any more Likes or commented on them . Oh, but it wasn’t totally no one . There was still a person who was tirelessly liking and commenting on his posts . Whenever Zhang Ye posted something, he would like it . He didn’t miss out on any of the posts .

This guy was Supervisor Ke .

A department head at the Central Publicity Department .

Supervisor Ke was also going crazy . Wu Zeqing was his supervisor and his direct boss . Due to the TV series the Central Publicity Department had funded, he had added Zhang Ye to his contacts . When he saw all those posts of his boss and her daughter, how could he possibly not like them and add a comment? Supervisor Ke was well-known at his workplace for going on a spree with his Likes . As long as it were anyone in his Moments, he would always make sure to press Like on their posts . This was a habit for him . If he could always press Like on the posts of his normal colleagues, how could he not Like the posts that his direct boss was in? That wouldn’t be acceptable . This was a mistake that Supervisor Ke would obviously not commit . But as things would have it, Zhang Ye posted several dozen updates onto his Moments today . As such, he also liked all several dozen posts and would wrack his brains to think of what to comment on each of them .

Supervisor Ke: “It’s been hard on Minister Wu . She works hard at the office and also has to take care of her child on the weekends . ”

Supervisor Ke: “Sisi is so adorable . She’s becoming prettier and prettier . ”

Supervisor Ke: “What flowers are these? They’re nice . ”

Supervisor Ke: “Where did you buy this toy? It’s nice!”

Supervisor Ke: “This outfit suits Sisi great . It’s nice!”

Supervisor Ke: “This hairpin on Sisi’s head—It’s nice!”

For the entire morning .

Zhang Ye didn’t feel tired at all from his postings on Moments .

However, Supervisor Ke was almost burnt out by it . His eyes had turned green with nausea!

…

Noon .

During lunch, Wu Zeqing finally checked her cell phone .

Old Wu said helplessly, “Just how many times did you post? I browsed through five of them already, and I’m still not done . ”

Zhang Ye said, “I don’t remember, but it’s not a small number . ”

“Oh, you . ” Wu Zeqing smiled as she shook her head .

Zhang Ye casually switched on the television . When it came on, it was a news report about the State Science and Technology Prizes . It seemed like the momentum of this news wouldn’t die off for at least a week . However, it could be deduced from this point that the people and the media were all in shock and disbelief over Zhang Ye becoming a great scientist . From a notorious hacker, he had now turned into a hero of science . This contrast couldn’t be greater, so everyone definitely found it difficult to accept at the moment .

Wu Zeqing asked, “You’re still not planning to reopen your popularity ranking?”

Zhang Ye said, “I’m still waiting for Sister Lan’s news . ”

They had been friends for many years, so there was a need for this . He also understood that it was the best opportunity to reopen his Chinese popularity rankings right now . Prestige, topicality, reputation, he was at the pinnacle of all that at this moment . In fact, his current reputation was even better than before he got imprisoned . To say that his popularity had doubled from that time would not be an exaggeration .

Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise . Back then, Zhang Ye’s popularity had reached a bottleneck, especially his Chinese popularity . The highest he got to at that time was around the sixth place of the S-list rankings . Based on the order of that, he didn’t even manage to get into the top five in China . Moreover, Zhang Ye had pushed it to the extremes . Even if he were to continue with his efforts at that time, he would probably not have seen too great of a change in one or two years . However, after consolidating for several years and with that rapid era change in the entertainment circle, Zhang Ye could still stand here and regain the popularity that he once had . In fact, it was even higher than that, close enough to the point that he had hopes of catching up to the seat of the person at the top . This was a miracle that no one else could replicate . His name was a legend in the entertainment industry!

He was only one step away .

And this was a step Zhang Ye wasn’t sure he could take .

Ring, ring, ring .

His cell phone suddenly rang . It was from Xu Meilan .

Zhang Ye answered: “Sister Lan?”

On the other end, Xu Meilan said with a chuckle: “You’ve been waiting a long time, haven’t you?”

“It’s fine, I’m not anxious,” Zhang Ye said with a laugh .

Xu Meilan said: “Thank you . This time, Big Sis owes you a great big favor . If there’s anything you need in the future, just tell me . ”

Zhang Ye was startled to hear that . “Your movie has premiered?”

Xu Meilan said: “It premiered two days ago . ”

Zhang Ye exclaimed: “Ah? Then how’s your popularity ranking?”

Xu Meilan giggled . “You didn’t check the popularity rankings, right?”

“Nope . ”

“True, you were busy posting on Moments all morning . Hur hur, Big Sis has risen to sixth on the S-list rankings . I’m no longer in last place, so hurry up and reopen your ranking . I don’t want to delay your matters for too long . ” She said sincerely: “I hope that you will be able to soar to the Heavens this time . Of all the celebrities from back then, it all depends on you now . ”

Zhang Ye belly laughed and said: “Sure, I’ll be counting on your blessings then . ”

After hanging up .

Wu Zeqing asked, “Is it time?”

Zhang Ye smiled and said, “Sister Lan’s matter is dealt with . She’s now second to last on the S-list rankings . Even if my popularity score is ahead of hers and pushes her back down the rankings, she will still get to keep her Heavenly Queen status . ” Rubbing his hands together, he took a deep breath . “But I really do feel a little nervous right now . This bro has been doing so much recently, but what if I can’t even get back on the S-list? What if I still remain below Sister Lan in the rankings? That would be so embarrassing . Where will this bro hide his face if that happens?”

But Wu Zeqing said, “Don’t think too much . ”

Zhang’er said, “Alright, I’ll listen to my wife . ”

Wu Zeqing asked, “Are you going out now?”

“Yes, I’ll head to the studio for a bit,” Zhang Ye said .

Wu Zeqing said, “Come back early . ”

Zhang Ye said, “OK . ”

It was the calm before the storm .

This was what many of those in the entertainment circle who were well-informed were feeling . Perhaps a change might really be coming to the entertainment circle soon!
