Chapter 581: Scaring the whole country!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

9 AM in the morning.

Zhang Ye's parents' home district.

Zhang Ye got out of his car in a very tired state. He continuously yawned as he tried to stifle it with his hand. He slowly stumbled into the apartment's corridor and proceeded to head upstairs. On the way up, he took his cell phone out to check on the latest news. Since he did not see any interesting headlines, he entered his own name using one hand and made a search. When the search results were displayed, he saw a headline in the news section which matched what he was searching for. It wasn't an eye-catching news headline but was posted on a web portal three hours earlier. It was possible that the number of people who read it didn't number that many either as the news content wasn't too interesting.

—"Zhang Ye Appears at Beijing Television Station"

Some of the pictures posted in the article were taken in the television station's lobby.

The content of the article was nothing more than the usual gossip as it recounted the feud between Zhang Ye and Beijing Television Station. One by one, examples were listed, and at the end of the article, it also expressed doubts and speculated unreliably about Zhang Ye's appearance at the Beijing Television Station's lobby.

Although this news article did not attract much attention, Zhang Ye still felt quite happy when he saw it. The reason was very simple. He had become more aware now that his popularity was no longer the same as before. Back when he had debuted, even if Zhang Ye had some amazing accomplishments, he couldn't get onto the headlines. Later on, he managed to get onto the headlines more whenever he caused trouble. However, those were still limited to the times when he caused a big enough incident to be mentioned. But now, even when Zhang Ye did not do anything for the past two days and only showed his face at Beijing Television Station, he still caught the media's attention and they reported on this news. Disregarding the fact of whether anyone would read this news or not, the simple fact that they even bothered to report it showed that his popularity had risen by a lot!

If someone could only get onto the news after causing big trouble, then they could only be considered a common celebrity. However, if you could even get onto the news without doing anything, then you would be considered as a successful celebrity, and that was exactly what Zhang Ye was right now!

At home.

His mother was at home today as it was her day off.

"Why didn't you come all of last night?" His mother stared at him.

Zhang Ye said, "Hai, I was helping a friend with something and had to work overtime."

His mother reminded him, "Next time remember to give us a call if you are not coming back. Don't make us stay up for nothing. We wanted to call you but were afraid you might be busy."

"I know, Mom, it's my fault." Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Don't say anymore. I have to catch up on sleep. Wake me when it's 12."

His mother glanced at him. "What do you want for lunch?"

Zhang Ye sweet-talked her, "I like any food you cook."

"Go to sleep. Don't always work overnight in the future," his mother said.

When he got to his room, Zhang Ye removed only his shoes and pants. He didn't even take his shirt but immediately dropped onto the bed instead and fell into a deep sleep. Zhang Ye was very obviously worn out.
