Chapter 18 Overshadows Hao Bao's CP
Chapter 18 Overshadows Hao Bao's CP
Ye Jingke naturally recalled what Bai Wuchang had said, and instinctively put his arm around her slender waist, unable to resist a smile, "What do you think?"
"I don't know." Cheng Ai buried her face in his chest, her voice muffled. "My head is a mess right now, I can't think straight at all."
Then, she handed him the jade hairpin from her hair, saying, "This thing can indeed heal wounds. Your arm and knee are bleeding. Put it by your pillow tonight when you sleep to avoid scarring."
Ye Jingke reached out and took it, while affectionately stroking her soft, long hair. "Then don't cry anymore. Adjust your mood. You have to record a show in a couple of days."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ai immediately pulled away from his embrace, wiped away her tears, and forced a smile. "You're right! Master usually dislikes me crying the most. I must be strong, teach that scoundrel a lesson, and then work hard to overcome my tribulation and find a way back to Qingyun Temple!"
Seeing her suddenly become full of fighting spirit, Ye Jingke couldn't help but smile. "Go for it, I believe you can do it."
Cheng Ai quickly climbed into bed, burrowed under the covers, leaving only her tear-streaked face visible. "Ye Jingke, thank you, I'm going to sleep!"
Ye Jingke smiled and wiped her face with a damp towel before turning to leave.
In her dream, Cheng Ai heard that familiar knocking sound again.
She opened her eyes, groggily got out of bed and opened the door. Upon seeing who it was, she exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Xiaolin?"
Li Xiaolin waved the thermos in her hand and said with a light laugh, "Hanmo cooked some porridge. I was worried you'd be hungry, so I wanted to bring it over so we could eat together."
Cheng Ai quickly stepped aside to let her into the house.
During the porridge, the two talked a lot about infant spirits.
Last night, as soon as Li Xiaolin got home, she kept asking if she was pregnant. Lu Hanmo couldn't refuse, so he had to ask his father to call the private doctor over.
The test results did not disappoint; she was indeed pregnant.
This news overjoyed the elders of the Lü family, who wanted nothing more than to present her with the best of everything in the world, fearing that they would mistreat her.
But Lü Hanmo and Li Xiaolin were not so happy, after all, they had already lost five children.
Cheng Ai put the jade hairpin that Ye Jingke had placed on the coffee table in the living room into her hair, glanced at the time, and frowned as she asked, "Sister Xiaolin, aren't you going to work at the hospital today?"
"I've taken a long leave of absence." Li Xiaolin gently stroked her lower abdomen, her expression tender and gentle. "I want to focus on my pregnancy and continue working after the baby is born."
Cheng Ai smiled and nodded, "That's fine."
For the next few days, Lü Hanmo brought Li Xiaolin over to keep her company. The two of them went shopping, watched movies, and took walks together, enjoying a leisurely and comfortable life.
The only downside is that Ye Jingke never came back.
The night before the recording, Cheng Ai placed two amulets on her bedside table and then drove Bai Jing's Bentley to the airport.
"This information was just compiled by Mr. Ye. Please take a look at it when you have time!"
Cheng Ai took the document, opened it, and looked at the detailed introduction of each guest. She narrowed her eyes slightly and murmured, "He's almost seventy and still comes out to record a show. No wonder he used to describe him as old, weak, sick and disabled."
She paused, then looked up and asked, "What has Ye Jingke been busy with lately? I haven't seen him for several days."
Bai Jing respectfully replied, "Mr. Ye is filming a new movie, and at the same time, Zhang Caifeng's remaining followers at Shengding International are also making moves. He hasn't shown up because he's afraid of implicating you."
However, he asked me to tell you not to act impulsively when you encounter Hao Jian and Cheng Baoni on the show, and that you don't need to create a persona during the live broadcast; just be yourself and leave the rest to him.”
He hesitated for a moment, then added, "I was able to survive the car explosion thanks to your help. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to let me know, and I will do my best to help you."
"Oh?" Cheng Ai raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on her lips. "So, what's your phone number?"
Bai Jing quickly recited a string of numbers, saved it, and then leaned back in her chair to scroll through her phone.
As luck would have it, my finger accidentally tapped a Weibo notification, and a trending topic instantly popped into my view.
Hao Bao CP's first joint appearance on a variety show after announcing their relationship was a hit.
Clicking on it leads to a photo of two people kissing in an airport waiting area. The man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, and the scene is romantic and heartwarming. Next to it is the caption: "[Dare to Come? We're here!]"
Cheng Ai scrolled through the comments, and her fans expressed their envy, jealousy, and resentment.
A playful smile curved her lips as she exited the page and posted a status update on her account:
@ChengXiaoAiV: Successfully signed a contract with Shengding International, a pleasant collaboration! @ShengdingInternationalGroup @YeJingKe
The account was newly registered, so the message did not generate much of a reaction.
But soon after, the phone started buzzing incessantly.
I opened it with a puzzled look, only to find that my comment section and private messages had been bombarded with messages:
[Is this for real? Cheng Ai, the one who knowingly became a mistress? How did she even get into Shengding International?]
[No need to guess, she definitely slept with Night Emperor.]
[Damn it! How dare they frame my brother? They're asking for it!]
Cheng Ai, if I were you, and my affair with my brother-in-law was exposed, I would have committed suicide out of shame.
[Hahaha, what can you do? They're shameless. Not only are they not embarrassed, but they also have to record the show!]
I feel so sorry for the other guests on that variety show. With Cheng Xiaosan around, the ratings are guaranteed to plummet.
Wow, my fairy godmother switched jobs?! Congratulations!
【What?! This kind of trash has followers? Could this be her own alternate account?】
Cheng Ai was completely bewildered until she accidentally saw a message tagging her and suddenly realized what was going on.
It turns out that Ye Jingke reposted her Weibo post with the added comment: "[Keep it up! Looking forward to your performance on the variety show! @Cheng Xiaoai]"
Cheng Ai smiled slightly. This guy is quite reliable. In this way, he should be able to overshadow the popularity of that adulterous couple.
As expected, her name quickly appeared on the trending topics list, with a concise and to the point title, but the content was quite sensational:
Night Emperor cheers on his artist Cheng Ai
There's no need to even look at the comments section; it's almost entirely filled with skepticism.
The next second, another text message popped up: [This is my personal number, and my WeChat ID is the full spelling of my name. For the first week, you'll only be livestreaming for two hours a day. If you want Hao Jian and Cheng Baoni to embarrass themselves, try to choose that time slot. The company will fully cooperate with you.]
Cheng Ai blinked, realizing that the message was from Ye Jingke. She immediately saved his number, added him on WeChat, accepted his friend request, and sent him a pig head emoji.
Ye Jingke replied quickly: [I saw the talisman you left for me. Phones will be handed in during the recording. If anything happens, contact assistant director Zhao Nan; he'll get in touch with me for you.]
