Chapter 8, The Clown Is Actually Oneself
Whispering sweet nothings
Liu Jinghua approached with a sullen expression, glanced at Xu Jie and Su Yun who were chatting and laughing, and coldly said, "What are you two doing, flirting with each other?"
On what basis?
You... Liu Jinghua was completely infuriated by the man's irresponsible attitude, yet she found herself at a loss with this man who was as unyielding as a dead pig in boiling water. Thus, she turned to Su Yun to complain, "Look, just look at what kind of man you married."
"Nonsense, when I was in a relationship, you were still wearing crotchless pants!" Liu Jinghua said angrily
This melon is quite large
Liu Jinghua suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and she walked over quickly, only to see the man's fingers gesturing on the phone screen, not knowing what he was writing.
Oh no
"Su Yun, what exactly are you thinking?" Liu Jinghua asked, puzzled.
The two of them exchanged words back and forth, collaborating as if they were fish in water, with an unparalleled smoothness
Ah, it seems that it is time for a new round of drawing the sword
Just as she was about to reach out to snatch it, Xu Jie seemed to have eyes on the top of his head and moved the phone away
How the hell would I know
Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this, how could it be discovered so quickly?
What are you doing? Liu Jinghua questioned sternly.
You see, I haven't even asked you to share your story and you're already anxious, so don't inquire about my relationship with Su Yun. It's just that kind of fate that cannot be obstructed by a thousand mountains and rivers once it arrives. Xu Jie spoke eloquently, not giving the other party a chance to continue gossiping.
"Hmph, what you are doing will only exacerbate the problem and increase the fans' dissatisfaction with this marriage." Liu Jinghua's gaze was like a sharp sword, wishing to cut the other party into a thousand pieces to feed the fish
Su Yun walked up behind Chen Guo, and the screen indeed displayed a photo of her embracing Xu Jie outside the gate of the Beijing Television Station, as well as a photo of the two getting into a business vehicle entering the villa area. The headline of the news read: "Waiting in the car for an hour, Su Yun appears to pick up her husband, cuddling and embracing in a super sweet manner, happily returning to their love nest"
Xu Jie walked over to the sofa and sat down, looking at Su Yun and asking, "Given the circumstances, it seems you are going for a cool and relaxed vibe. Do you have any regrets?"
Su Yun smiled faintly, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "Do I look like I am worried?"
Liu Jinghua, feeling anxious, stared with wide eyes and said: "What do you mean by 'in the past'? This clearly just happened yesterday"
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she felt. Suddenly, gritting her teeth as if she had made some important decision, she asked in a deep voice: "So what is the situation between you and Tang Fei?"
Xu Jie walked through the porch and entered the living room, surprised to find that there were other people here besides Liu Jinghua
She is very clear that Liu Jinghua has been operating in the entertainment industry for many years and must not be offended, after all, the other party holds a vast network of connections and resources
Upon realizing this, Liu Jinghua began to feel self-reproach
Although you are a renowned agent, your eloquence still falls short compared to that of a journalist
Sister Hua, please don't be angry. If you hadn't taken care of me, would I have come this far? Besides, you are my agent; if you don't look after me, who will?" Su Yun walked over to Liu Jinghua's side again and affectionately grasped the other person's hand
She glared resentfully at the man who was "slumped" on the sofa, as he was snickering at his phone. If it weren't for his presence, she wouldn't be in such a dire situation now
The people around were taken aback. Sister Su's husband is also related to Tang Fei?
It truly is a seamless integration
How could the rise and fall of the male lead be absent from this wave of popularity
Forget it, I won't care anymore, do whatever you want. Liu Jinghua covered her head with her hands, her mind was in a chaotic state, as if it were about to explode
Xu Jie gently patted the other person's hand, delicate and boneless, smooth as congealed fat
Sister Yun!" A chubby girl beside her said with a distressed expression, "We should hurry and buy our way onto the trending topics, and also on Weibo. If we don't control the comments soon, it will completely blow up, especially on Mr. Xu's Weibo. Ever since he replied to a fan, all the comments below are filled with insults.
He will not take the blame for this
As emotions deepened, he rubbed his reddened eyes with his hand
It is a pity we met so late
Hearts connected in mutual understanding
Su Yun slowly walked towards Xu Jie after hearing this, their gazes colliding in the air repeatedly. Perhaps due to a shared adversary, they quickly reached a certain understanding.
Indeed, those who pry into the love stories of others often have a voyeuristic tendency. Xu Jie looked at Liu Jinghua and retorted, "At your age, you must have experienced love, haven't you?"
The others in the room exchanged glances, and it was evident that Sister Yun's relationship with Mr. Xu was much better than everyone had imagined. One could even sense a whiff of romantic tension from their conversation. The crowd couldn't help but marvel at how well Sister Yun had kept this under wraps, as even the people from her own studio were completely unaware.
Fat girl Chen Guo was eavesdropping intently when she suddenly came across a new set of photos. She quickly reported loudly, "Sister Yun, the news about you going to the television station to pick up Mr. Xu is also on the news, and there are photos too"
She has been a star agent for over twenty years, having witnessed infidelity and affairs, but she has never seen a sudden marriage.
Liu Jinghua is also a bit confused; was it Su Yun who took the initiative?
Liu Jinghua could not help but feel a sense of schadenfreude; as the saying goes, many hands make light work. Even if just a tiny bit of dirt is dug up, it would be enough to bring this man down a peg. It will be interesting to see how he behaves then
Let me take a look, Xu Jie leaned in closer
The onlookers nearby all perked up their ears, their eyes filled with excitement
Wait, what is he doing
Su Yun nodded with delight, which to outsiders appeared as an affirmation of her husband's words, but in reality, she was affirming Xu Jie's acting skills
Let me take a look! She hurried over
In ancient times, Cao Zhi composed poetry in seven steps; today, Su Yun weaves stories in seven steps
Xu Jie sneered inwardly, yet his face displayed gratitude
"Wrong!" Xu Jie corrected, "It was only after your Yun Jie posted the marriage registration photo on Weibo that my Weibo comment section was filled with insults"
Liu Jinghua almost swore
Liu Jinghua's fists trembled uncontrollably in anger; usually, it is she who reprimands others, and no one dares to reprimand her
"Sister Yun, a personal information of Mr. Xu has suddenly circulated online, and I don't know if it's true or not," Chen Guo suddenly said
The glasses-wearing girl shifted the screen slightly towards Su Yun and said with a serious expression, "Sister Yun, two more brands have canceled your promotional activities, and one brand has clearly stated that it will not renew the contract after it expires this year. Additionally, the cover shoot for 'Fashion Woman' magazine scheduled for January next year has also been canceled"
Liu Jinghua was filled with anger, and the actions of the other party further solidified her suspicions
The chubby girl opened her mouth, initially intending to say something, but considering that this Mr. Xu was the husband of the boss, she ultimately closed her mouth again
"Sister Hua, stay calm, just eat a pear to cool down," Su Yun said as she handed Liu Jinghua a crystal pear.
Xu Jie also took out his phone to log into Weibo. With the exposure of a new set of photos, the popularity of the Su Yun incident surged once again, and naturally, the number of people criticizing him increased as well
"Can you not behave yourself? Look at what you have sent before; everyone is looking for solutions to the problem, yet you are making things worse," Liu Jinghua reprimanded loudly
Su Yun walked over to a girl wearing black-framed glasses, glancing at the computer screen as she asked, "How is it?"
Su Yun comforted Liu Jinghua while giving Xu Jie a meaningful glance. However, she greatly admired the other party's fighting spirit and was most afraid that they would not withstand the pressure of public opinion and terminate the collaboration, which would truly be disastrous.
Xu Jie immediately became displeased and said, "You are simply the oblivious younger sister of Shiranui Mai. I am helping Su Yun attract attention and divert the focus of her mindless fans, providing an outlet for their negative emotions. Look at how great I am as a husband on wwwhetushucom"
Hmph, I am not so easily deceived
It seems that I have become accustomed to Su Yun's state of being insulated from rumors, and I have not paid attention to each other's romantic lives for a long time
No experience
A deep mutual affection
According to Mr. Xu, he had previously been in a relationship with Tang Fei, but was later interrupted by Sister Hua, and then Su Yun took the opportunity to confess her feelings... This story is more exciting than any tale, and this situation is becoming increasingly dramatic, larger than the watermelon king of Panggezhuang
"Alright, alright." Liu Jinghua impatiently interrupted the two as they were showing off their affection, "Don't beat around the bush, be more specific!"
At first, she took a long time to persuade Tang Fei to break up with her boyfriend, but now she has lost a sesame seed while picking up a watermelon; no, she has lost a cash cow, and in the end, the fool turned out to be herself
In the end, one still does not forget to praise oneself
She smiled, as this was precisely the result she desired
Truly deserving of the title of a dramatic performer
If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. In fact, I should thank you. If it weren't for you turning me into a single dog, Su Yun wouldn't have confessed to me, making me realize that there has been someone silently waiting for me all along
Wait a moment, will pulling out the radish also bring out the mud, and will Tang Fei be searched out as well
Show me your phone
You ... ...
"It is not as complicated as you say," Xu Jie said nonchalantly. "In fact, humans are quite simple; as long as you overpower them, they will listen to you. Therefore, humiliating them is all it takes."
... ...
Some of these individuals are seated on the sofa, while others are on the carpet, each holding a laptop, their eyes fixed intently on the screen. Until his appearance, which immediately captured everyone's attention, exuding a gravitational aura.
"According to what you said, I must have fallen into an abyss of ten thousand fathoms. Are you comforting me or mocking me?" Su Yun grabbed an orange from the table and threw it over.
Meanwhile, Liu Jinghua's face turned pale; either there were no rumors at all, or she was afraid that the whole world would not know she had a man, which was too extreme
At this moment, Su Yun and the book blushed, and shyly said, "Sister Hua, how can one casually talk about love with others? It should be a beautiful memory preserved in each other's inner world"
However, since the other party has already started the performance, he cannot remain silent; after all, this is a duet, not a solo act. Therefore, he cooperatively said, "Hmm, mutual affection!"
"Don't give me that, I have no mood to eat pears right now!" Liu Jinghua pushed him away and then showed a look of honesty in the face of leniency and strictness in the face of resistance as she looked at Su Yun, "Tell me, how did you two meet?"
I want to get married!" Su Yun said without hesitation, then turned to Liu Jinghua and asked, "Sister Hua, what should I do now?
"I didn't do anything," Xu Jie said expressionlessly
Upon careful consideration, Su Yun has debuted for so many years without a boyfriend by her side. The entertainment industry is filled with handsome men, so if there isn't someone in her heart, who could endure for so long
I fell in love with him at first sight" Su Yun said with deep affection, then she came to the man's back, gently placed her hands on his shoulders to massage him, as inseparable as glue.
Xu Jie was silently eating an orange; as for the question asked, he and Su Yun had not yet had the chance to collaborate on their statements
"Haha, just take it as a consolation," Xu Jie said as he peeled and ate the orange.
In fact, this explanation sounds somewhat forced and is fraught with doubts, such as the fact that the other party still has not mentioned how the two of them met, nor how they managed to keep their communication hidden from everyone, but it is not entirely impossible
Those who are close to vermilion become red, and those who are close to ink become black. Xu Jie feels that his acting skills have significantly improved
Xu Jie raised his eyebrows and then pretended to be indifferent as he said, "That is all in the past; who doesn't have a bit of history?"
As a comrade, Xu Jie did not wish for Su Yun to fall so soon
Xu Jie nodded and said, "That's good. Just take things lightly; life is full of ups and downs. Today is just the first day, and I estimate there will be many more troubles ahead. If you fall first, it would be quite meaningless for me to be left alone."
