others bullying him.

This time, it was the fans’ turn to fight back, and all the people who had previously insulted Zac were silenced because these fans and viewers didn’t expect the outcome to be exactly as Zac had said. The key was that Jodie was indeed a bit incompetent, and they couldn’t find a way to fight back.
On the other side, Jodie and Andrew walked to a street and saw a crowd of people gathered ahead. There were even people lining up. As they approached, they realized that these people were not here to watch the new guest play the harp or Leon play the flute. They were here to see Simone and wait for her to help with their makeup.
Andrew saw the lively scene and couldn’t help but say, “Can this also be done? I have to say, this person plays the harp, similar to how you play! Is it because more girls are watching, so the new guest is so popular?” He said this mainly to comfort Jodie but also deliberately said it for the people in the live broadcast room to hear.
Jodie blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed. She had specifically studied the harp, so naturally, she could tell that the new guest played very well and had a high level.
Andrew’s words, on the other hand, made her feel awkward. In order not to make the audience dislike her, she said, “It’s just that my skills are not as good as his. The new guest they found is talented, attracting so many people.”
The implication was that Simone and the others were able to become so popular thanks to the new guest.
In her heart, there was also a hint of jealousy. Why is Simone so lucky? They managed to find a new guest who was not only good-looking but also talented. It’s a pity that the new guest isn’t part of our group.
Andrew agreed, “Yeah, they are really lucky.” He thought for a moment and suggested, “Jo, why don’t you also try making money by doing makeup for others?”
Jodie grumbled silently, How could I possibly learn from Simone? It’s embarrassing. Besides, she only knew how to do her own makeup, not others’. Silently, she criticized Andrew for having such low emotional intelligence. “It’s not a good idea to learn from them. Let’s think of other ways to make money ourselves. Or we could go find Mr. Turner and Miss Pearson. After all, we are a team, and it’s better to act together.”
She decided to continue pursuing Zac. Seeing Simone and the others making money and gaining popularity again made her feel bitter and uncomfortable. She especially wanted to see Simone’s misfortune and had a feeling that as long as she could snatch Zac away, she would be able to suppress Simone’s luck to some extent, just like when she snatched Leon and her five brothers.
She encouraged herself that although she had been defeated by Zac many times, the greater

the difficulty, the greater the challenge. Then, she took a deep look at the good-looking new guest, hoping that his eyes wouldn’t be blind.
Andrew didn’t want to look for Zac as they always had unpleasant interactions, but it was hist first time participating in a variety show, and he didn’t know how to react. “Alright, I’ll listen
to you.”
Hence, they left the street and went to find Zac. After asking the program staff, they found Zac and Keira at a restaurant where they were currently working as waiters to earn money. As a result, they attracted many tourists to come and eat. Just as they finished serving a round of dishes, Zac saw Jodie and Andrew, who had come looking for them.
His originally smiling, handsome face turned dark. Why did these two troublemakers show up? He couldn’t be bothered and went to the kitchen to continue serving dishes.
Andrew stopped him and said, “Zac Turner, what are you doing here?”
Zac turned around and replied impatiently, “Can’t you see?”
Andrew asked with a hint of disdain, “Is your idea of making money? Serving food to others?”
Raising an eyebrow, Zac retorted, “What’s wrong with serving food? It’s hard work and earns money, and we’re not eating your family’s food. Are you discriminating against certain occupations? Your thinking is wrong. Whether it’s using your brain or physical labor, all work is honorable. Work doesn’t distinguish between high and low status.”
He truly believed in this. Although he was born into a wealthy family and was a top star in the entertainment industry, he respected people in every profession. As long as one earned a living through their abilities and didn’t rely on others’ resources, why should there be a distinction between high and low status?
That was why he didn’t like Andrew’s condescending attitude. If it weren’t for the Gray Family, someone like Andrew wouldn’t even be able to serve food properly and probably have to rely solely on his looks to make a living.
Andrew choked, but he wouldn’t admit his thoughts. “I don’t think that way. I’m just curious about why you guys are doing this kind of work.”
Zac replied, “We do it to earn money and have a place to stay at night. As long as we can make money, it doesn’t matter what kind of work we do.” He smirked at the two of them and continued, “Why did you guys come here? You’re not here to embarrass yourselves, are you?”
Andrew really wanted to drag Zac out and give him a beating. This guy was toxic and always hit where it hurt the most. To protect Jodie’s reputation, he said, “We heard from tourists that the city holds free concerts and dances every few days, and we can’t make much money by performing. So, we’re not going down that route. We’re a team, and it’s not good to act alone. so we came to find you guys.”

In saying so, they were also trying in save face. Despite that, Zac didn’t give them any face and sneered, “Stop pretending Everyone knows who you are. I told you before that this is an ancient city with plenty of people who can play instruments and dance, but you didn’t listen. Now, we’re doing this kind of service work. If you can swallow your pride, join us. Suppose you can’t, then leave. I have to work and don’t have time to waste with you. Figure it out yourselves.”
With these two burdens, he and Keira were really unlucky.
Andrew was furious watching Zac mock them and leave. He wanted to explode, but Jodie held him back. “Andrew, let’s talk to the restaurant owners and work here to earn money.”
If Zac and the others could do it, so could they. Andrew couldn’t help but feel annoyed as he went to find the shopkeeper with her.
Knowing that the two of them were part of Zac’s group, the shopkeeper didn’t refuse either, allowing them to work as temporary shop assistants.
At first, Andrew couldn’t bring himself to do it. After being looked down upon and mocked. by Zac and Keira, he didn’t want to be underestimated by them and reluctantly went ahead. Because of this, he was heavily criticized by the viewers on the live stream.
On the other side, Simone calculated the time and asked Aaron to stop people from queuing up. In the end, it took more than five hours to serve all the people in the queue. If they hadn’t stopped it in advance, there would have been many more people waiting. As a result, they earned nearly two hundred.
Then, they went to the restaurant where Zac and the others worked, preparing to have dinner together. On the way there, Simone chatted casually with Bailey, “Your harp skills are superb
Even when she watched him play the harp, she felt like he was a nobleman from centuries. ago. His skills were the most outstanding she had ever heard and was truly remarkable. Previously, she wanted to test the depth of his skills, and sure enough, this guy came prepared.
