Chapter 262: Overthinking Lately
Hua Xin had initially intended to use this opportunity to create a huge commotion and disagreement amongst the cast of . However, thanks to Jin Mingchen’s sudden appearance and statement on his social media profile, this matter was quickly resolved.
This was also partly because Qi Mo had also expressed his personal view on this matter. He stated that the program was a very interesting program and that the cast and the production team were an integrated family made up of many different characters. He also explained that Jiang Yuning was in fact really very talented and intelligent and this had been the key to their victory in completing most of the missions so far. This was especially proven when Tong Tong had fallen into the quicksand during the second issue. Moreover, although Jin Mingchen was constantly creating trouble because of his timidity and mischievousness, Jiang Yuning would still wholeheartedly help and accept him into her team every single time. Qi Mo explained that Jiang Yuning was a caring and compassionate person and popularity did not really matter in the end.
What was most important to them was the fact that they were like a family that did not hesitate to help one another whenever they encountered any obstacles or difficulties. This was also the core and most important lesson that anyone should have learned by watching this variety program.
Therefore, Qi Mo advised his fans not to be manipulated by people who were trying to wreak havoc within the cast members when the relationship between all of them were in fact very good.
At the end of the day, the production team stepped up and apologized because they admit that there were indeed times where they tend to focus more on Jiang Yuning because of her talents and intelligence and this might have inevitably cause some of the guests to feel neglected. They promised that they would definitely make the necessary adjustments in the next issue to allow all participants a chance to shine on their own.
Early the next morning, the internet was overflowing with discussions about the production team and cast of .
[Oh, my god! This production crew is really too loving!]
[Although I really hated Jin Mingchen after watching the episode broadcasted last night, he is really cool and charming when he stood up just to protect his friends!]
[The cast is really one of the strongest and closest casts that I have seen in any variety program. As soon as one of them realized that another guest was in trouble, they did not hesitate to stand up for and defend the other party immediately. The production team also did not try to shift the blame away from themselves and instead, they apologized and promised to strive for a change in the next issue. Although the production team did not do anything wrong at all in my opinion, I feel that their attitude and response is very commendable!]
[Everything is fine now. Let’s continue to entertain ourselves by supporting this variety show!]
Hua Xin would never have imagined that the participants of the program, who should have been torn apart because of the rumors, were instead even more united and supportive of one another because of what had happened. Moreover, Hua Xin’s actions also helped Jin Mingchen to portray a brand-new side of himself to the public and this subsequently gained him a new wave of fans.
Therefore, both Jiang Yuning and Jin Mingchen’s agencies had already released all of their pent-up anger and tensed emotions, and they even wanted to thank the mastermind behind this situation.
...
Jin Mingchen initially thought that the number of fans and followers that he had would drop drastically after what happened the night before, but he could not help but smiled like a child when he saw the huge increase in the number of fans that he had gained overnight.
“I used to think that it would not work for you to have a masculine image but now, it seems as though we could actually consider incorporating this element into your performance at your upcoming concert next month,” Jin Mingchen’s agent said after watching Jin Mingchen’s performance. He could not help but sigh a little because it turned out that this young boy really needed some encouragement to prove himself.
“Alright then...could you please prepare a few more extra tickets for my concert next month? I want to invite Sister Yuning and the rest of the cast members to my concert.”
“I will think of a way,” the agent promised immediately. “But are you going be stronger and more mature in future?”
“I think that I can even join the army after I am done with my concert!” Jin Mingchen exclaimed.
“Alright then, I will sign you up,” the agent replied coldly.
“I am just kidding...” Jin Mingchen replied with a miserable look on his face.
“But...I was being serious.”
...
At ten o’clock that morning, Vera arrived at the Royal Dragon Villa to discuss the findings that she had received from X Society with Jiang Yuning.
“It is not that easy to find out the identity and IP address of the culprit. The young paparazzo spent the whole night trying to trace the IP address of the culprit to no avail. It seems as though this culprit is very meticulous and must be a veteran at this.”
“Who do you suspect the culprit behind this matter is?” Jiang Yuning asked Vera as she stared at her with an intense expression on her face.
“It seems as though we are thinking of the same person,” Vera replied as she laughed. “But don’t worry. The other party will definitely hold back, at least for the moment, and she will not plot her next plan immediately because she would be afraid of getting caught. We should just sit back and wait for the next opportunity to expose her.”
“Wow, Vera! Who did you learn all these from? Since when have you been like this?”
“Isn’t it all because of you?” Vera replied as she scowled at Jiang Yuning. “Well, didn’t you ask me to inquire about wedding rings on your behalf? I found a Swiss shop that makes really beautiful and exquisite wedding rings. When would you like to make a trip there?”
“Wait. First, I have to secretly measure second brother’s ring size tonight,” Jiang Yuning whispered quietly because she did not want Sister Liang to overhear what she was saying.
“Alright then. I will go to Xiya Hotel and deal with An Yiqing’s matter right now so that this can be regarded as a compensation to her.”
Jiang Yuning nodded her head and at that time, something came to her mind immediately. “Vera, didn’t you drop by Xiao Chennan’s house last night? How did it go?”
“I don’t want to talk about it.” Vera’s face flushed red immediately.
What was this film emperor thinking?
What did he treat her as? How could he come to the door without putting on any clothes when he already knew that she would be dropping by?
Actually, he had a bathrobe on, but Vera completely ignored that fact.
“Alright. We will not talk about it.” Jiang Yuning immediately knew that Xiao Chennan did not take advantage of this opportunity that she had created for him. She would have to create another opportunity for him in future.
...
On the other hand, Hua Xin was extremely angry and frustrated because her plan had backfired and as Vera had already predicted, she did not dare to take any further actions at the moment because she knew that Jiang Yuning was very smart. If she tried anything else right now, she would definitely be caught red-handed.
However, she was not that worried because she believed that she already had An Yiqing helping her behind the scenes.
When the time is right, the seeds of evil will unexpectedly bloom into flowers.
“Hmph! You might be lucky this time but just wait and see...you will not be as lucky next time.”
...
That night, Jiang Yuning received information from Vera about the wedding ring shop called Precious. This store had already been established for more than 180 years and they were famous for customizing wedding rings for many famous couples in history.
Jiang Yuning read their profile and she suddenly felt the urge to approach Lu Jingzhi so that she could discuss this matter with him, and then the both of them could custom make wedding rings that belonged exclusively to them.
“What are you looking at? Why do you look so fascinated?”
Lu Jingzhi asked as he noticed the expression on Jiang Yuning’s face as soon as he entered the villa.
Was that empathy?
Was she interested in another man?
Jiang Yuning looked up at her man and she closed her laptop immediately. “I watching a drama.”
“Guilty conscience?”
“No! I am just a little shy...there are a lot of kissing scenes in this drama,” Jiang Yuning replied immediately.
Lu Jingzhi snorted but he did not interrogate her any further. This little descendant had been overthinking lately.
Both of them entered their bedroom and went into the bathroom to wash up, one after the other, before they eventually climbed into bed. As soon as they got on the bed, Jiang Yuning turned around and looked at Lu Jingzhi before she said, “Second brother, I am tired. I am going to sleep now.”
“Alright then. Sleep tight,” Lu Jingzhi replied in a calm manner before he turned the bedside lamp off and laid down beside her.
After an hour had passed, Jiang Yuning suddenly turned her body around and whispered into Lu Jingzhi’s ear: “Second brother?”
Lu Jingzhi was wide awake at this time but he pretended to be fast asleep because he was really curious to find out what Jiang Yuning was up to this time.
After that, Lu Jingzhi could feel Jiang Yuning sneaking out of bed and going into the bathroom quietly.
A short while later, Jiang Yuning came out of the bathroom and she walked towards Lu Jingzhi before she knelt down beside him and took a small piece of string out from her pocket...
