Many official Twitter and well-known accounts reposted the online video. Some not-so-famous artists even sought out the older man and delivered food and drink to gain popularity.

The staff from the local government agency were aware of the matter and adequately arranged housing and food for the older man. Netizens only regret that no one found the beautiful sister in the video.

The 'mysterious little sister' being talked about, currently carrying the drama crew's lunch box, is more energetic than anyone else. The male protagonist initially had no appetite, stared at Scarlett for two minutes, and took the spoon to eat the vegetables.

"Scarlett, if you become popular in the future, you can't tell the fans how much you can eat." Frank watched Scarlett eat her food clean and suddenly felt like a tired father.

"Why?" Scarlett ate the last remaining rice and wiped the corner of her mouth.

"That is because all beautiful women eat less when growing up." Frank again patted Scarlett's shoulder, "In the future, you must remember to restrain yourself when there are outsiders."

"Brother Frank, have you forgotten?" Scarlett threw the lunch box into the trash bag and looked at Frank sympathetically, "Our agency is closed."

Frank was silent.

He was born as a human. Doesn't he deserve to dream?

"It is okay. I will work to support you after filming is over." Scarlett sweetly comforted Frank, "I am young and have good physical strength." She had not finished speaking when her WhatsApp notification showed she had received a new message.

Scarlett glanced at the contents of the Whatsapp chat in the notification and hesitated for a few seconds before slowly opening the group chat.

[Always Smile: The operation was a success! @Little Sister Scarlett @I want to be Rich]

Scarlett was so excited that her hands were shaking. She hastily replied to the message.

[Little Sister Scarlett: Good. Sister will be fine]
[Always Smile: The doctor said the patient should be observed in the hospital for some time after the operation. Brother and sister, I want to thank you for this time. If it were not for you, Diana probably would not have survived]

[Little Sister Scarlett: A good sister and brother should not say thank you]

[I want to be Rich: @Little Sister Scarlett is right. As long as you and Sister Diana go out and work hard, you remember to take care of the children in the orphanage. We all remember it]

Frank noticed that Scarlett looked excited, as if something good had happened. He asked, "Is there any good news?"

"Diana's sister's operation was successful!" Scarlett held her phone and glanced at Frank with bright eyes.
"Brother Peter just sent a message!"

Frank was stunned for a long time before laughing happily, "Good."

"Yeah, that's good." Scarlett opened an online shopping platform and whined, "Brother Frank, help me figure out what to use to treat someone's health after surgery."

Seeing Scarlett seriously lowering her head to buy a product, Frank could not help but touch this woman's soft hair and smile. For Scarlett, Peter and Diana were not just brothers and sisters. They are like their father and mother.

Frank first met Scarlett ten years ago. At the time, he had just graduated from university and had gone with friends to volunteer in poor areas of London. The narrow streets and dusty shops with no fashion sense made them feel for the first time that there was such a poor place in the world.

They came to orphanages in several districts and saw children lining up to receive food and eat while the bowl was clean. Their hearts became more complicated.

Frank noticed a child in the corner eating quickly as if she were hungry. She saw the food and could not wait to put it in her stomach.

The girl's facial features were excellent, but she was too skinny. From afar, she looked like a big-headed doll. The more Frank saw, the more depressed he felt. He took some chocolates, intending to share them with the girl. As soon as he got closer, he found that the girl's arm was bruised and had a bloody wound on her head. It seemed that the child had been badly mistreated.

The staff at the orphanage were worried that the volunteers would misunderstand and think they were harassing the children in the orphanage. They quickly explained the situation.

"This kid was just sent here two days ago. If it wasn't for the principal knowing something was wrong and reporting it to the police, I'm afraid–" The staff member shook her head and sighed, passing a spoonful of rice onto the girl's plate.

The child looked at the staff and smiled, very well-behaved, "Thank you, Auntie."

Frank had just come out of university and saw this sight. His whole heart softened. After learning that the child was often abused by her adoptive parents, the teacher reported it to the police. This attracted media attention, and she was sent to an orphanage.

They are volunteers and accompany the children to play for several hours. They gave the child some stationery and clothes before leaving. As soon as they went, all the children stood at the gate out of respect.

Frank saw the girl with the wound holding the book. He gave her an innocent smile. In the face of this smile, Frank squatted in front of the child and said, "What is your name?"

"My name is Scarlett."

"That's a good name." Frank wanted to touch the girl's head, but the blood and bruises on her head had not gone away and had not healed. Frank could only lower his hand back.

Since then, he has often communicated with the girl and told her about the outside world. The girl talked about getting first place in class and the brothers and sisters who cared for her in the orphanage.

Brothers Peter and Sister Diana were accepted into good universities, married, and sent many toys and clothes back every year. The girl said she wanted to be like Peter and Diana. She will go to a good university and make a lot of money.

However, the summer she was supposed to take the university entrance exam, Scarlett said she wanted to avoid attending university. She wants to make a lot of money.
Frank was furious and rushed to Scarlett's side to scold her.

"Sister Diana has a severe illness." The girl could not lift her head after being scolded by Frank. She sat in her chair and looked pitiful, "The doctor said that Diana's sister was too tired. To help us at the orphanage, brother Peter and sister Diana live frugally. They have no home or children. They do not even have the chance to enjoy life. I want her alive."

"Brother Frank, help me." Scarlett's young face was determined, like a stubborn bull. Scarlett had already decided her course and would never look back.

Frank promised. Since then, he did not ask about Scarlett's university entrance exam results, and Scarlett does not talk about the university anymore. Scarlett signed a contract with the artist's agency for eight years. With excellent visuals and decent acting, Scarlett got minor roles in various drama crews. It also takes on the role of a substitute for saving.

"Brother Frank, what are you doing?" Scarlett saw Frank looking at her in a daze and said happily, "Would you like to eat something warm tonight? Like kimchi."

Kristin passed by Scarlett and heard this sentence. She raised her eyes and glanced at Scarlett. This world has such poor people. Who would ask the manager and her assistant to eat kimchi?

"Can you add fried meatballs or grilled meat?" Frank asked quickly.

Kristin thought, 'Not only are the artists poor, but the managers are also poor.'

Kristin took out her cell phone and went to rest in her chair. She lay down and clicked on a popular video on Twitter. The young woman in this video looks familiar? She sat up straight and glanced at Scarlett. Then she locked his phone screen like she saw a thief.

"Sister Kristin?" The assistant thought Kristin saw something negative on the Internet and hastily said, "You don't need to remember the words of those very mean netizens. After a few days, you won't even remember what they said."

Kristin did not speak as she touched her expensive cell phone, afraid that Scarlett would still be as famous as her dream.

New comments are circulating online, saying that the video was intentionally published and that some people use this to get famous.

However, within days, netizens needed to remember about this video.
