Chapter 4, I shall call you the strongest
Hello, is anyone there
Coincidentally, both individuals were wearing white shirts, and the onlookers who were unaware of the truth would surely think that this was a premeditated act, as if they had conspired to show off their affection together
"Xu Jie, where are you?" Wang Jingmin spoke quickly, as if she were very anxious
Xu Jie took the tablet with a mix of skepticism and curiosity. The director had already opened five or six web pages, all of which were news reports about Su Yun obtaining her marriage certificate. Among them were screenshots of Su Yun's Weibo, and the marriage registration photo was enlarged to the point where every strand of hair was clearly visible, providing undeniable evidence.
What?
Lifeless eyes, an unremarkable face, a little puppy, how laughable it is
All major websites have it, and it has already climbed to the top of the trending search list. Wang Jingmin handed her tablet over to Xu Jie, saying, "At first, I didn't believe it, thinking it was just another unscrupulous self-media outlet photoshopping and spreading rumors for clicks. Later, I found out that Su Yun had posted her marriage registration photo on Weibo herself. I said, 'You really kept this under wraps, such a big deal and you didn't even tell me.'
... ...
... ...
Yes, where the hell am I
He vaguely remembers that Su Yun mentioned that marriage is a test for both parties, an opportunity to prove oneself. If he is afraid to face public opinion online, what difference is there between him and an ostrich that buries its head in the grass when faced with danger
Xu Jie rubbed his forehead vigorously, and Su Yun's approach was simply a form of suicidal marketing, akin to a suicide truck in Libya, where one not only self-destructs but also blows others to smithereens.
What are you, to dare to say "Marry me" to my idol
Xu Jie felt a tightness in his chest; his Weibo account had been verified, clearly stating: Reporter for the Life Channel of the Beijing Television Station
Xu Jie understands the director's intentions, which is to prevent him from feeling bad after reading too many comments. After all, many people have experienced depression and social withdrawal due to online bullying, and some have even resorted to extreme measures.
Xu Jie was left with a series of questions popping up above his head, what master, what expert? What is the strongest?
I am astonished
The caller is Wang Jingmin, the director of the program group and also his immediate superior
"Congratulations, you have become the enemy of the entire internet," Wang Jingmin said with a smile. She had already seen Xu Jie's Weibo and knew that it was a dire situation there. "I advise you not to go online recently, otherwise your heart won't be able to take it"
Xu Jie was initially taken aback, followed by a look of confusion. He recalled meeting Su Yun earlier that morning and was aware of the marriage proposal; he even remembered some of the reasons she used to persuade him. However, he could not recall whether they had actually gotten married.
Su Yun has debuted for many years with few scandals, and is recognized as a goddess both inside and outside the industry. Now, this goddess has unexpectedly married an ordinary man, a combination that is bound to face opposition from fans, who do not allow their prized possessions to be taken by swine
Ahem, let's get back to work
Wang Jingmin was not joking; in the hearts of the public, only a male god is worthy of a goddess, just as in fairy tales, it is always the prince who rescues the princess
Hurry and get a divorce, do not bring harm to Su Yun
Well, I drank too much!
As expected, the situation is developing in the anticipated direction
You
Brothers, strike him
Xu Jie understood and obediently walked over
It is about your marriage with Su Yun said Wang Jingmin
Xu Jie left the office, returned to his workstation, and immediately liked Su Yun's Weibo post. He then tagged Su Yun and posted a photo of their marriage registration as a response, subtly showcasing their affection and confirming the matter.
Wang Jingmin waved her hand, truly at a loss for words. A young reporter marrying a big star, it is either true love or sheer capability. How impressive of the junior disciple.
What would Tang Fei think ?
"Director, where did you see this in the book?" Xu Jie asked, coming back to his senses
... ...
What despicable means did you actually use?
At this moment, a middle-aged woman dressed in a light-colored business suit emerged from the innermost office, her commanding presence instantly silencing the previously bustling office.
Wang Jingmin scanned the room and noticed that no one dared to speak anymore, and only then did she direct her gaze to Xu Jie’s face, subsequently nodding her head towards the office inside
When Xu Jie returned to the office, it was nearly 2 o'clock. The moment he walked into the program team, a pair of eyes immediately turned to look at him, some with surprise, some with envy, but more with disbelief. It felt as if Tang Seng had entered a den of monsters, each one seemingly eager to devour him
He discreetly slipped one hand into his bulging pocket, taking advantage of the director's inattention to sneak a glance inside. In addition to a wallet and a household registration book, there was also a small red booklet, which was a marriage certificate
The room is very quiet, and no one is responding
Does this woman truly believe that the road is too smooth and the people are too popular, and wants to slow down
Wang Jingmin was also taken aback by the reaction of her junior, noticing how this young man appeared even more surprised than she was
In addition to private messages, there is also a recent Weibo post, which contains some precautions regarding common diseases that frequently occur in winter, and has now become a message board for Su Yun's fans
Xu Jie was taken aback, as the director's tone suggested that something significant had occurred, prompting him to quickly rise and look for his coat
CP can be niche, but it must never be inappropriate
"Who is marrying Su Yun?" Xu Jie raised his voice, not because he hadn't heard clearly, but because he doubted what he had heard
"Deeply hidden and unassuming, this is what it means to be a master." Reporter Zheng Xiaoshan raised a thumb and then turned to the man at the opposite table, saying: "Brother Liang, haven't you always claimed that you've never been outdone in pursuing women? Are you convinced this time?"
Before he could finish his words, he was pulled into the office by Wang Jingmin, resembling a mischievous child being dragged home by their mother after causing trouble outside
If this is a dream, everything feels too real, even to the point of connecting with his memories when he is awake. However, if this is reality, the events that have transpired are too surreal. Just after breaking up with the newly famous Tang Fei, he is proposed to by the superstar Su Yun. Even a television drama would not dare to portray such a storyline.
He did not have time to think much, quickly put on his clothes and shoes, and glanced back at the room before leaving. Could this be Su Yun's home?
Since he started working here, he has been well taken care of by Wang Jingmin. In addition to his strong professional abilities, another reason is that they share the same alma mater, with her being his senior by twenty graduating classes.
He hurriedly raised his head, looking as if he had seen a ghost. Looking again at the registration photo of himself, his mouth was curled up, his eyes were filled with laughter, and his face was beaming with joy, to the point that he was almost drooling with excitement.
It is noon
However, when he saw the name on the caller ID, he instantly sprang up as if he had been resurrected from the filth.
The screen came to an abrupt halt at this point, leaving Xu Jie quite perplexed. He could not clearly distinguish whether the content he had just recalled was a dream or an event that had actually occurred.
... ...
At this moment, Xu Jie is seen as cow dung in the eyes of the public, a pig brother in the eyes of his fans, and a demon king in the eyes of the overweight. Meanwhile, Su Yun is the victim blinded by sweet words. Now, everyone is vying to be the brave warrior who will defeat the demon king and rescue the princess, with the keyboard undoubtedly being their most powerful weapon at present
... ...
The abrupt ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly rang, waking Xu Jie from his slumber. He reached out and fumbled around his body, ultimately finding his phone in his pants pocket.
I sincerely believe that you are not worthy of mhetushu.com, Su Yun is beyond you, what a worthless thing!
I was ... ... '' Xu Jie looked around and realized that he was in a strange villa, with pink walls, floral curtains, and dolls in the corners, all exuding a youthful atmosphere.
I am completely convinced, especially when compared to Xiao Xu, I am merely a younger brother. Zhang Mingliang, a reporter and cameraman, looked at Xu Jie with admiration, saying, "Xiao Xu, no, Master Xu, from now on you will be my guiding light, I, Zhang Mingliang, am willing to call you the strongest."
"Impressive, Xiao Xu, you are now a celebrity," said the director Zhang Huihui with a smile.
Xu Jie looked up at the director and said, Pressure? It doesn't exist!
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, as he should normally be working at the office or conducting interviews at this time. How could he be lying in a stranger's house, sleeping soundly today
Director, what is the matter
Wang Jingmin saw Xu Jie remaining silent and assumed that he had taken it in. She reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him: "We are all your family. If there is anything, feel free to speak up, do not feel any pressure"
Xu Jie felt puzzled; was it really necessary to make such a fuss over skipping work for half a day
Once his information is exposed, he will inevitably be labeled as a rogue who deceives for money and sex, and will be beaten by fans to the point of being unable to get out of bed, leading to his social death.
Although he was awake, his eyelids felt as heavy as if they were weighed down by lead, and it took him a long time to squeeze a narrow gap between his upper and lower eyelids.
What is most bizarre is that Su Yun actually knows his Weibo account and mentioned him while sharing the evidence
I
Let the storm come even more fiercely
Return my goddess
He returned the tablet to the director while taking out his phone from his pocket to log into Weibo. At that moment, the screen suddenly froze, and it took a full ten seconds before it gradually became smooth again. Following that, he saw the number of messages continuously increasing—mentions, comments, follows, private messages, and the number of fans surged from a few thousand to over two hundred thousand.
Yes, Director
Wang Jingmin closed the door properly, turned around, and stared at Xu Jie, asking: "Xiao Xu, is what the news says true?"
He is now filled with energy, eager to fight against the heavens, the earth, and even the air, battling until the final season of the story, making that old woman Liu Jinghua take back everything she has said before, understanding what it means to seek one's own discomfort
That being said, a mere nobody marrying a goddess is inherently something that invites envy and resentment. It is quite normal to be criticized a few times, as in this day and age, no one can stand to see others living better than themselves
"News? What news?" Xu Jie asked in confusion, is it not about skipping work?
"No matter where you are, come to my office immediately." Wang Jingmin said sternly before hanging up the phone
Indeed, the junior disciple has never been one to fear trouble, especially considering that he is now marrying a big star, a goddess. He is so overjoyed that he can hardly contain himself, so how could he possibly be depressed
Completed
However, in his view, such behavior is no different from self-deception. Does not going online and not looking mean that others will not criticize? Clearly, it does not.
He searched around and finally found his clothes and shoes at the door. At the same time, the large pendulum clock hanging on the wall caught his attention, with the hands indicating the time as 12:56
Suddenly, a series of images appeared in his mind like slides. He recalled writing copy all night at work last night, remembered the toothache he had while going out for food this morning, ... and also remembered meeting the big star Su Yun in the park while drinking to ease the pain, who insisted on marrying him, and then ... . ... there was no more after that
I apologize, Director, I ... ...
Wang Jingmin caught sight of Xu Jie's spirited gaze and immediately understood that she had misinterpreted his intentions
Ding ding ding
