Chapter 26 - 26 026 Wronged Fiancé
Chapter 26: Chapter 026: Wronged Fiancé Chapter 26: Chapter 026: Wronged Fiancé After Liu Qiang’s actions had attracted some negative attention, Director Li didn’t ask for any guest to hold an entertaining activity, and the evening live broadcast was cut.
Although it was a 24-hour live broadcast, could the guests even catch their breath during continuous streaming?
After dinner, everyone dispersed.
The tents were all set up for the guests.
Exhausted from a day’s hard work, everyone took this time to relax, scrolling through their phones or discussing things with their managers over calls.
Shen Yan got her phone back and after a simple wash up, she lay on the bamboo mat staring at the phone screen.
Xiao Zhao had been following the production team all this time, and now he groped his way over in the dark, standing outside the tent and asking in a low voice, “Shen Yan, I’ve brought some ice lollies, do you want some?”
The wind that blew in the summer was a bit stuffy, Xiao Zhao’s ice lollies were just the thing to relieve the heat.
“Come in.”
Xiao Zhao hurried in with a small bag and handed it to Shen Yan.
The small bag contained two ice lollies, Shen Yan only took one, “Thanks.”
Xiao Zhao was flabbergasted by the gratitude, “You’re welcome, it’s my duty to do this.”
Xiao Zhao hadn’t expected Shen Yan to be so easygoing.
She was nothing like the bad temper rumor had it, proves that gossip can’t be trusted!
If anyone dared to speak ill of her Yanyan again, she would have a fit with them!
“You’ve worked hard, go rest,” Shen Yan said, tearing open the wrapper and taking a bite.
Ice-cold and refreshing, delightful!
Xiao Zhao quickly said it wasn’t hard!
Where was she tired? These last couple of days, she had been squatting bored with the production team, scrolling on her phone, liking Shen Yan’s posts and voting for her.
It was only tonight when the live broadcast window was cut off, leaving only the show’s official live stream, that she could come over and talk to Shen Yan.
Seeing that Shen Yan didn’t need anything, Xiao Zhao went back to rest with peace of mind.
Shen Yan played with her phone for a bit, then deleted all the photos of Mu Jincheng from her album – the memory was all taken up by Mu Jincheng’s videos and photos, and none of the others existed, not even her own.
Shen Yan watched the deletion process, speechless.
The original owner was crazy about the male lead.
Then she logged into her own Weibo account and unfollowed Mu Jincheng directly.
Thinking about the original owner’s tendency to attract hate, she didn’t want to read the negative comments from the haters, planning to log out.
Huh?
Shen Yan opened up the messages and saw quite a few from her fans.
She has fans?
Fireworks fans?
Indeed, that was her fans’ name.
Shen Yan looked at the data which was increasing by the day, and felt a bit complicated.
She scrolled for a while, getting a general understanding of the fan community.
Shen Yan was really grateful to that top fan; if not for their organization, she wouldn’t even have a fan base.
Just about to check the home page of this top fan, a WeChat message popped up on her phone screen.
Her hand had already clicked into the messages.
Glancing at the blank avatar and the name, which hadn’t been changed and was a few numbers and letters.
No notes, no idea who it was.
But when she saw the content,
Shen Yan instantly understood.
It was her wretched husband… er, fiancé.
[Uncle Liu will pick you up after the program is over.]
Just from those words, one could taste his coldness towards the original owner.
Looking at the message page between them, only three messages had been sent, and all three were from Qi Si.
The previous two messages were: [Uncle Liu will come to pick you up.] [Uncle Liu will take you to school.]
Shen Yan fell silent for a while.
All cold messages.
The original owner never took the initiative to reply.
Shen Yan herself was very indifferent when it came to family bonds; her own family, heartlessly, had sent her at fifteen into that kind of hell.
It would be odd if she nurtured illusions about family bonds.
No illusions didn’t mean she would reject true family affection.
The original owner in the novel was a fool who didn’t know what blessings she had.
Even though her family also had those wishing her ill, compared to her own family, they were much, much better.
Someone who has lingered in a cold cellar for too long will also crave warmth.
Shen Yan typed a line of text in the chat box, then deleted it, typed it again, and deleted it again.
After several iterations, she finally settled on sending out three words.

Qi Si, who was working overtime on some documents, picked up his phone, which had vibrated briefly. He looked at the screen.
“I know.”
The three blunt words shone on the display.
Qi Si was taken aback for a moment.
Imagining the annoyed emotion with which Shen Yan must have typed those words, Qi Si covered his phone expressionlessly and resumed his work.
Since it was the elders’ decision, whether there was any affection or what kind of person she was, didn’t matter anymore.
As long as the purpose of the arranged marriage was achieved, she was free to divorce if she wanted.
As for the man she was interested in, Qi Si wouldn’t interfere.
Having fulfilled his obligations, there was nothing more the Shen family could ask for.
In the end, they would probably feel indebted to him.
He was a businessman; naturally, he would speak of business matters. Emotions – he didn’t need those.
Others praised his patience with Shen Yan, not knowing that it stemmed from his indifference.
As for acquiring that media company, it was to avoid Shen Yan tarnishing her reputation further.
After all, she was the person he would marry in a few months; he had to maintain appearances.
*
Shen Yan didn’t pay any more attention to the message.
She scrolled through the contacts of the original owner and found very few people; she couldn’t even find traces of family members.
It seems that quite a few had been deleted or blocked before.
With nothing of interest in the contacts, she started browsing various apps.
She realized her popularity had actually risen.
Testing her soul for a reaction.
There was none.
On the trending search list, there was a clip of her singing a tune.
But it hadn’t reached number one.
The top spot was taken by the female lead, Chu Jinghe.
A common topic had made it to the number one spot on the hot search.
The second and third places were hot topics from a neighboring romance reality show.
Shen Yan’s hot search was fourth.
Such a favorable topic reaching fourth place was already quite good.
As long as it wasn’t a negative hot search, it was a positive thing; she believed she could manage one hot search a month.
After browsing for a while, Shen Yan saw that most of the apps were flooded with the female lead’s popularity.
There were also topics shipping her and the male lead’s CP (couple pairing), subtly surpassing the neighboring reality romance show.
Shen Yan put away her phone, propped her head on her hands, stared at the tent ceiling for a while in a daze, and decided to get up and exercise.
She got up and snuck into a dark path ahead without others noticing.
Just as she was about to start running, she noticed two dark figures ahead speaking face to face.
Shen Yan turned to leave.
But then she heard Mu Jincheng’s voice, “Make a move, Shen Yan being here has a bad influence.”
“Don’t worry, Young Master, I will handle it well. Last time we only made the person ill, but this time, we’ll be harsher and ensure she completely withdraws from this show.”
These words carried a sinister undertone.
Shen Yan frowned.
Mu Jincheng couldn’t restrain himself from messing with her any longer.
“Just don’t kill anyone; it’s okay if you break her arms or legs, just get her out of here.”
Mu Jincheng’s voice was very cold; he didn’t find such actions problematic at all.
The entertainment industry had even darker secrets.
From poisoning to creating accidents, all sorts of ploys existed.
Mu Jincheng was a wealthy scion who had long been exposed to the dark side of his family.
So employing these little tactics in the entertainment circle didn’t bother him.
Shen Yan was just a nuisance to his and Chu Jinghe’s affair.
Shen Yan didn’t listen any further because she saw the female lead walking over from the other side, so she chose a direction and jogged off slowly.
What do you think?
