‘Group photo god?’

Meng Fan felt a little overwhelmed.

“Task requires you to take a group photo with different public figures 100 times.”

“Upon completion, you will receive the title [Group Photo God] (Photogenic +5, smile appeal +3, validation +2)”

The task only had one phase, and it rewarded 1000 points, with no additional attributes.

Basically, he had to take 100 photos before receiving the reward all at once.

Before, when he had been completing the [Group Photo Guru] task, Meng Fan mournfully dwelled on the fact that there was no task that had advanced versions of each other, like the adoration fever one. Who knew, the opportunity was just around the corner!

The rewards were not bad either compared to [Group Photo Guru], plus there was an additional validation reward.

Validation? Made sense. Taking pictures with so many public figures would definitely increase his sense of existence.

Let it come. Either way, he still had the presence masking hat, so he no longer rejected anything related to validation attributes.

Of course, the difficulty also increased.

From the entirety of society to the small scope of public figures, similarly, 100 photos had increased the difficulty at least 10,000 times!

Even then, there might not even be one public figure out of 10,000 people.

It was very simple to take photos with a hundred regular people, so anyone could accomplish that task. But to find a hundred public figures and take a photo with them… This wasn’t something any ordinary person could do.

What counted as a public figure?

It must be a person who possesses a certain social status within a scope. They must have an important influence on society and be well known by the people. They should be able to derive great benefits from society and have a close relationship to the interests of the public.

They must be socially visible and have a high social status that could greatly benefit and influence public interest for a duration of time. These four traits are a must.

If they were only known by the public because of one deed, they could count as popular, but not a public figure.

To put it simply, political leaders, artists, film stars, sports stars, social activists etc; would all count as public figures.

For most people, the public figures that they came into contact with the most were the ones from the celebrity category.

Just among the celebrities, it was difficult to find a hundred of them to take photos with.

If he wanted to reach this quantity, he either had to be rich, have connections, or have Hong Qiao sister’s patience and foresight, responsiveness, ability to seize opportunities… Alright, if he wanted to be Hong Qiao sister, then the average person would not be able to do it!

It was going to be very difficult.

Fortunately, Meng Fan had the funds to chase stars. But most importantly, he had a connection. His sister was a famous actress.

Meng Cai Wei was not the top actress in Hua Xia, but she could still count as first-class—a big idol.

Although she was a bit arrogant, and her mouth was a bit vicious, and she had many issues in the way she dealt with problems, she was still a beautiful actress with good professional ethic, not to mention she had been a straight-A student. Her people skills might be lacking, but she did know a lot of people…

“That’s not cool!”

Meng Fan took a closer look at the photo after he snapped it. He then threw his phone aside. Annoyed, he said to Meng Cai Wei, “Each person is more aggravating than the next. Tell me, how can the difference be so big between two people from the same parents? You’ve gained so much weight, but you’re still so beautiful!”

“Hohoho, what your sis has is called natural beauty! Other people cake themselves in makeup, but your sister can get by being fat or thin. Skinnier, I can be Zhao Fei Yan, and when I’m chubby, it’s Yang Yu Huan. This weight is nothing. If I gained another twenty pounds, I can still fascinate all beings!” Meng Cai Wei took a bite out of a donut and sipped on her milk tea.

After accepting all the words of praise, she glanced at Meng Fan, chuckling. “What do you want from me? Be nice, stop sweet-talking me, it’s not sincere. Be more exaggerated, in the form of a song.”

“Get lost, I flatter you once, and you actually took it seriously!”

Facts had proven that Meng Fan couldn’t speak two sentences of praise in a row when it came to Meng Cai Wei. He picked up his phone and shoved his bum to the other side where Bai Zhi sat sipping on her milk tea, watching their commotion. “Sister Bai, let’s take a photo.”

“Alright.”

Happily watching the commotion, Bai Zhi thought of the events in the bathroom when Meng Fan approached. Her expression went strange for a while, but when she saw Meng Fan take his phone out, she recovered immediately and entered her most beautiful state.

“Sister Bai, you have fun here. I’m going out to lunch with some friends.”

Meng Fan gave Meng Cai Wei a heads up and left.

“Stinker, there’s so much food at home. Why go out? You don’t want to get fat with your sister? Sigh, are you eating with a girl?” Meng Cai Wei shouted. “Do you need to come home tonight? Do you need to stay here?”

Bang!

Meng Fan slammed the door!

Then without saying a word, he scurried out.

Who knew if the system would judge this as a request from someone of the opposite gender. The [Open for All] task was toxic amidst such a dialogue!

Meng Cai Wei was 7 years older than Meng Fan, so there was no guarantee that she didn’t count as a peer of similar age.

Who f*cking specified what the difference would be for one to be ‘peers’?!

He had specifically gone online to check where it said the difference was three years. Some had stated six years, while others said they had to be born in the same decade. One even went as far as to say that a twelve-year difference could still qualify one as ‘similar age’!

The System didn’t clarify, so god knows what the standard was.

He escaped downstairs, where he confirmed that the [Open for All] task did not increase in progress. He let out a long breath. Although he couldn’t confirm that a 7 year and higher difference was not part of the system’s standard, at least he now knew it was ok to escape.

He put on his hat and headed outside. One, because he didn’t have the access card and it was easier to pass through, and two, Meng Fan knew this neighborhood had an abundant amount of famous people, so there were often paparazzi lurking, waiting for opportunities.

Before, Meng Fan was always very cautious when he visited. Even if he was photographed, there would be no big news, but he didn’t want to let others, especially the ones that knew him found out that he had a superstar sister. That would bring big trouble for sure.

Now that he had the hat, Meng Fan felt light as a feather. Who could see him now!?

‘Wait!’

Meng Fan started to laugh.

“Why didn’t I think of the hat just now!”

With the hat, even if he had no money or a famous sister like Meng Cai Wei, he could easily finish the task [Group Photo God]!”

If the timing was right, he could finish the task in a day, no, an hour, or maybe 10 minutes even.

This bold idea put Meng Fan in a good mood. He didn’t need to look at Meng Cai Wei’s sour face to finish this task.

He hummed a small tune as he left the neighborhood and then hailed a taxi after taking his hat off.

…

“Hahaha, you stupid kid. Are you trying to break my door!?”

Meng Cai Wei shouted at Meng Fan after he escaped. She couldn’t help but laugh, and when he walked out of hearing range, she said to Bai Zhi, “You don’t say? He’s a lot more flexible now that he’s skinnier.”

“Yeah right, he had already crashed into the door.”

“Yeah, but look at how fast he was running! He ran into the door because my door wasn’t properly installed!”

“Kekeke, the difference is too big!”

“Baibai, little baibai.” Meng Cai Wei suddenly tackled Bai Zhi and held her hand. “I think the kid is a bit strange today. It’s very likely he went to eat with a girl. I don’t know if it’s a girl he’s into, or just regular girlfriends, or just someone he sort of likes… As a big sister, I must obtain first-hand information!”

Meng Cai Wei plastered herself next to Bai Zhi, batting her eyelashes vigorously. “I have to make sure this kid doesn’t really like this girl, Bai Bai, you’ve got to help me! Are you going to rehearsal with Qing Cen in the afternoon? This kid is Qing Sen’s diehard fan. Call him in a bit and say you’re going to rehearsal and ask if he wants to come. If he does, then it means he only sort of like her. If he refuses, then he must really like her.”

“Is this necessary? Don’t turn good intentions into bad deeds!” Bai Zhi was also speechless. “What if… little Fan was eating with guys, or he just didn’t want you to feed him?”

“A guy?!”

Meng Cai Wei looked as if she had been electrocuted, eyes sparkling. “Then I would have two little brothers!”
