However, since it wasn’t a very long story, *Strange Tales* had a decent number of readers but hadn’t beco wildly popular.
Therefore, not many people in the Federation knew about the novel yet.
The most heated discussions were still centered around *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*.
When Jiang Qin ca to work again, she was stunned to see four new large screens installed inside the bar.
She was also quite shocked when she heard Zhu Yongkang say he was going to play a TV series in the bar.
She had seen taverns that broadcast live sports, but she had never seen a bar that played TV dramas...
However, she never interfered with the bar’s operations, focusing only on her own work, so she didn’t say much.
But when her shift ended at eight, she didn’t leave early.
Instead, she found an empty table, ordered two glasses of Inhibitor, and sat with Yun Xie.
Because Zhu Yongkang had told the custors in advance about the bar’s new program, very few people left that night.
After all, they had never seen a bar that played a TV series either.
At 8:45 PM, the screens lit up.
With four large screens, you could clearly see what was playing from anywhere in the bar.
Coupled with the bar’s high-end sound system, one had to admit the atmosphere was quite good.
Most importantly, they could watch it together with their friends.
"This is my first ti watching a show on a screen like this. It feels pretty great."
"Heh heh, it’s more exciting than watching at ho by ourselves."
"What flavor of Inhibitor do you guys want? Let’s order now so we can watch in peace later and not be interrupted by the robots."
"Makes sense."
When the the song began, it was like music playing at a concert; the sound quality was truly different from a Light Computer or a regular TV.
Everyone felt like this was a viewing feast.
The bartender at the counter excitedly wiped the glass in his hand again and again.
’Heh heh, now I can watch the show even while working!’
When a new custor walked in and saw this scene, they were completely dumbfounded.
Who would believe it? A massive bar, not playing music, but a TV series. Nearly two million custors, all of them silently engrossed in the show...
Even the staff were standing motionless in various corners, craning their necks to watch.
"Uh... um, excuse , I’d like to buy a ticket..."
Zhu Yongkang snapped out of it and hurriedly attended to the custor. "Sorry, I was captivated by the show. Here’s your ticket. Your booth is number 399. I’ll have a server show you the way."
The custor asked, completely baffled, "Um, your bar does have soothing masters, right?"
"Of course. They’re the ones on the stage."
The custor followed his gesture and was dumbfounded.
He saw two females sitting in a corner on the high platform, watching the show, not paying any attention to the booths below.
If Zhu Yongkang hadn’t pointed, he wouldn’t have even noticed there was anyone there...
’Is this really a proper bar?’
But he’d already bought the ticket, so even if it wasn’t a proper bar, he wasn’t going to leave. He followed the server to his booth.
After watching for a little while, he was completely sold.
Soone must have taken a picture of the scene and posted it on the Star Network, because netizens were just as dumbfounded.
[This is insane. First ti I’ve ever seen a bar playing a TV show.]
[Hahaha, who’s the owner of this bar? They’re so good at keeping up with the tis.]
[They totally deserve to make a killing. I really want to go to a bar like this.]
[I’m going to a bar anyway, so I’m definitely going to Moonlight tomorrow night. I left the bar early yesterday, which felt like such a waste of the ticket price. If I can watch the show, it’s a perfect reason to stay a little longer.]
The custors who could never get a table: ...’It’s over. Now it’ll be even harder to get one.’

The ratings for *dicine God* were rising every day, so Jiang Qin no longer needed to worry about it; Lan Yuyan was handling it.
*The Legend of the Condor Heroes* was also airing steadily with plenty of buzz, so she didn’t need to follow up on that either.
She could leave the rest to the company.
The company had also arranged the next steps for the actors who had beco famous thanks to *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*.
Deng Zimo was signed to Tianwen Entertainnt and was currently undergoing training as well as a physical recuperation program.
After all, his health was now tied to the company’s profits, so the company would cover his dical expenses and purchase better dicine for him.
Now, Jiang Qin’s only remaining tasks were to release one song a month and update her novel.
Her schedule had freed up considerably.
"Yun Xie, do you want to go out sowhere? I feel like you’ve been cooped up just staying by my side all the ti."
Although Yun Xie’s Riot Value had dropped significantly, he still had the habit of using a vapor-type Inhibitor.
So, at that mont, he was leaning on the balcony, exhaling clouds of vapor.
When he saw her approaching, he quickly stopped and put the Inhibitor back in his storage space.
The vapor from the Inhibitor was naturally non-toxic, harmless to the human body, and even beneficial.
He just felt that since he had inhaled it, the vapor was no longer "clean," so he had to keep it away from Jiang Qin to prevent her from breathing in the "unclean" air.
Every ti he saw her get close, he would imdiately stop using it.
He also tried to use it in well-ventilated areas as much as possible.
It was a habit of many years; he had developed a dependency on it by now and was too lazy to quit.
Jiang Qin had no intention of interfering with a hobby that was harmless to his body.
"Where does Qinqin want to go?"
"I don’t know either. I’ve never been to any of the nearby planets, so I have no idea what’s fun."
Yun Xie paused for a mont, then asked, "Does Qinqin want to go to a tourist planet?"
"Not necessarily. It doesn’t really matter where we go. The main thing is I want to go out with you and help you relax."
Hearing this, Yun Xie’s heart swelled with a bittersweet warmth.
"I don’t feel cooped up. Every day is interesting when I’m with you. Just looking at you is interesting enough."
He held no longing for the outside world.
He had spent too much of his life wandering and only wanted to settle down by her side.
If it weren’t for his laid-back nature, with his Level, he would have been persuaded to join the military long ago.
Jiang Qin gently snuggled into his arms and said, "We should still go out for a walk. Just the two of us. We can treat it as a date."
"Okay. I’ll go with you wherever you want to go."
"Should I search the Star Network and plan an itinerary?"
Yun Xie had other plans in mind, so he smiled and said, "Let handle it."
"Alright."
Besides, Jiang Qin didn’t really want to fuss over it anyway.
Even just finding a place to take a walk would be fine with her.
However, she soon wouldn’t have to worry about it at all.
The ever-busy Lan Yuyan ca ho early for once.
He said, "The company received an invitation today. It’s for a variety show from the Empire."
The show is a romance-thed reality show.
The invited females are either celebrities, wealthy heiresses, or High-level females.
The sa goes for the invited males.
However, each female can bring her own partner onto the show; there’s no rule that they have to choose one of the males selected by the production team.
It’s basically a publicly funded dating show.
As long as the couple is sweet enough, it’s fine.
"Qinqin, do you want to participate? If you do, I’ll accept on your behalf. If not, I’ll just turn down the Empire’s offer."
