Chapter 15 A Little Added Entertainment
- Thinking about that, her face unconsciously spilled out a brilliant heartfelt smile and her voice rose with happiness at the last word of every sentence.
- "Come, Spades K, have some steak. I'm not bragging but this restaurant's chief's steak is amazing. Clubs K, you should try some too."
- This sight of Man Yu surrounded by the two men took on a different meaning in Kou Yan's eyes.
- As expected, this woman really is fickle. One moment, she gets divorced with me, next moment she's goes looking for pretty boys within the production team, and is even going for two brothers at once?
- Getting divorced with this woman indeed was the correct decision.
- "Yan, I heard that the tofu at this restaurant is pretty good. Why don't you have a try?"
- And she's smiling so wantonly too. Am I really that bad that I can't even beat those two pretty boys? Is she that happy to be divorced with me?
- He stared at Man Yu, who was opposite him, talking and laughing. The atmosphere between the three was extremely harmonious. He got angrier and angrier as he watched, and his sword-shaped eyebrows started to firmly knit together.
- "Yan, what's wrong?"
- It wasn't until he heard Nie Suhuan's concerned voice, that he finally slowly moved his fixed gaze away from Man Yu.
- "Oh, it's nothing. I've had a lot of stuff going on lately. I might be a bit tired."
- The expression in Nie Suhuan's eyes flickered. She clearly saw that Kou Yan's eyes were glued to Man Yu just before. Even her calling him couldn't recall even half of his gaze.
- Weren't they just married in name? Why does it look like Kou Yan cares so much about her?
- "Come, come, come, let's drink a toast to celebrate the successful completion of the show!"
- Following the director's words, everyone bumped their glasses together. There was a light smile on all of their faces, but secretly, an undercurrent started to surge.
- ......
- "What? What is going on? Is everyone in the public relations department incompetent?"
- Li Zewei hadn't entered the room yet when he heard Nie Suhuan's furious voice from inside. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then knocked on the door.
- "Suhuan, it's me."
- To his surprise, as soon as he pushed open the door, a tea cup came flying at him. Luckily, he dodged in time. The teacup grazed past his ear, and flew through the door, smashing into the opposite wall with a "Bam", splashing a coffee colored stain onto the wall.
- "What is going on? I just returned to the country. What on earth have you been doing?"
- The Nie Suhuan standing there right now didn't have the slightest bit of grace and elegance an artist should have. Her hair was scattered on one side like rice straw. There were huge dark circles around her eyes. Her face was haggard. She looked like a dangerous crazy lady who had just escaped from a mental hospital.
- But for Li Zewei, this berserk Nie Suhuan before him was someone even more frightening than a dangerous crazy lady. For almost a moment there, he actually hoped that Nie Suhuan really was blacklisted by the entire web, like the netizens wanted.
- No one expected that Song Jiamu appearing at the last moment would actually miraculously reverse the online public opinion, and that HC Platform's first ever online live broadcast would actually momentarily become the lead story of every big entertainment news company because of this.
- "Miss Man Yu is truly a beautiful and kind person, so even the characters she writes are incredibly honorable and honest. It really is, like author, like book."
- "Yeah, yeah, in comparison, that Nie Suhuan is simply unreasonable and annoying. When I was watching, I really wanted to beat her up!"
- "That Nie Suhuan cares too much about fame and fortune. Abandoning a life for the sake of a mission? This sort of person should be blacklisted!"
- "Hmph, I heard that she came back from overseas not long ago, and went on this show shortly after. Her intentions are as plain as the day. She couldn't make it overseas, so she wanted to come back and become famous, right? She has the looks but nothing else."
- "Let me be frank. It was all hotshots on the show this time. Kou Yan, and the KK Duo, and even the Goddess Yu Man. All of them are big names in their field. What is she? And she even called herself the mysterious guest, isn't she embarrassed?"
- "She's just a girl who came back after completing her studies overseas. She was just a little selfish, and neglected the life of a human being a little. Why are you all viciously dissing her? Now, if it were me... Comrades, let's hit her instead!
- "I petition for her to be blacklisted from the entire web. I don't want to see this sort of murderer appear on my screen."
- "Agreed! Blacklist her. Get the hell out of the entertainment industry! Go back to your daddy overseas."
- "Blacklist her!"
- ......
- Because Nie Suhuan decided at that time to not save the child, even after the show ended, the matter didn't die down, and instead continued to blow up by the day.
- The online praise for Man Yu and the overwhelming online criticism, abuse and insults towards Nie Suhuan actually monopolized the trending search topics and top headlines of media outlets for days.
- "Suhuan, cool down. The office is actively working to control public opinion. The public just happens to be focusing on this right now. Over time, the everyone automatically will forget, and when that time comes..."
- "Forget?"
- Nie Suhuan looked at Li Zewei as if she was seeing a joke. There was disbelief in her eyes.
- "You make it sound so simple. It wasn't easy for me to get this springboard, but in the end, it turned into an abyss. You think that I can still sit still?"
- Nie Suhuan glared at Li Zewei with wide bloodshot eyes. She looked ghastly and horrifying.
- "It's just a program and the audience are also only treating it as a TV program. No one will take it that seriously."
- "What did you just say?"
- Li Zewei was startled by her question. He didn't know which part of her sentence upset her. He had no choice but to say, "I said that it's just a program. No one will take it that seriously."
- "Program?"
- Nie Suhuan looked like she was in a middle of meticulously dissecting something layer by layer. Her lips suddenly turned up into a creepy smile.
- "You're right. Why didn't I think of this? This is just a program, and since it's a program, naturally there will be a script and characters."
- Li Zewei witnessed this woman astonishing and godly ability to do a 180. His heart was in his throat.
- "Go found a decent internet water army for me right away. I want release some news. It's just a script, right? Then, I'll help make this program a little more entertaining."
- Nie Suhuan turned and looked out the window. The corner of her lips lightly curved up.
- The sun's warm and harmonious rays outside the window were now fully blocked by thick clouds. It seemed that a rainstorm was imminent.
- "Man Yu, before you minded your own business and I minded my own, that was our relationship. I originally didn't want to make an enemy of you. But I believe that it's time for you to understand, whether it's fame or Kou Yan, those are all things that I are meant to be mine."
- In one night, the millions of posts, which praised Man Yu, were flooded with negative replies such as so-called exposure posts and bashing posts.
- "What? Man Yu is a beautiful, kind and good person? Please open your eyes properly. Why don't you take a clear look at who the screenwriter-director for this show is? She obviously scripted out the whole thing to make herself look good. Her acting was perfect too, it's such a waste that she's not an actress."
- "These days, what program doesn't have a script and characters? Don't you get it? Nie Suhuan is the most pitiful one here. She's a musician who came back after finishing her studies overseas. You think she cares about this little bit of fame? This all happened because the show used her as a scapegoat for publicity."
