After listening to Gu Minghua's words, Chu Hao seemed relieved:
"I came to bring her to you because I wanted to know if you liked her. If not, that would be even better."
Gu Minghua felt somewhat helpless as he looked at his friend:
"What? Are we going to act out some deep brotherly love drama? If I like her, I should just give her up to you? That would be very impolite to Qin Wei and me..."
Chu Hao shook his head:
"Hayden, you're overthinking. I just feel that it would be great to have one less competitor like you. Whether you like her or not, I will continue to pursue her!"
Gu Minghua searched online for the program and then informed Chu Hao:
"Perhaps you're aware of the rules, but let me remind you that you only have three days to date her. You still have today and tomorrow to pursue her, and if she doesn't agree, you may not have another chance to meet."
"So..."
Chu Hao returned to the villa and took out a bouquet of blooming jasmine flowers he bought from the florist:
"After tomorrow, would you still be willing to continue with me?"
...
The three of them spent the entire day in the studio, chatting, listening to music. Qin Wei asked if he had any other plans, and Chu Hao replied that he didn't because he felt that Qin Wei would be comfortable staying here, so she could relax as much as she wanted.
Qin Wei glanced at the time:
"Can I leave work early?"
As she spoke, she looked at the accompanying staff.
Bullet comments:
"Great! 'Lü'e's Work' is over, and 'Goose Love' is about to begin!"
"Some paparazzi have captured that the goose goes back to Yunjin District every day. Someone lives here, don't you think? Unfortunately, they can't get any evidence."
"It seems like she also bought a house here. I wonder if any residents from this neighborhood can spill some gossip."
"The residents confirm that she did buy a house in Yunjin, but it should be in Phase Two. The Phase One houses were sold out a long time ago (although it's not ruled out that she bought from another owner)."
The bullet comments expressed their desire for Qin Wei to go home, while they were willing to stay and watch the two "big brothers" chit-chat.
"We love the big brother CP (of course, the big brother CP refers to the relationship between the two big brothers)."
Gu Minghua found it strange:
"Why do they call us big brothers?"
Chu Hao poured another cup of coffee for Gu Minghua:
"Because they find us boring. Yesterday, there was even a hot topic saying that I'm a 'fatherly boyfriend.' At first, I thought they meant I looked like Qin Wei's elder."
...
Qin Wei left, but the number of viewers in the live broadcast room didn't decrease much. Many people hadn't seen Gu Minghua for a long time, so they asked him many questions in the bullet comments.
The director communicated with Gu Minghua and asked if he could do an interview with Chu Hao together.
"As long as the questions are work-related, I can answer them. I might not respond to overly personal questions."
Gu Minghua didn't refuse. Although he was no longer participating in variety shows, having an opportunity to communicate with someone who loved music wasn't a bad thing.
...
On her way back home, Qin Wei bought some fruits. When she arrived home, she saw Qiao Sixiao watching the live stream. It turned out that the live broadcast of their group didn't end after she left.
Sitting in the hallway changing her shoes, she could hear the lively voices coming from the speakers.
As she went to the kitchen to wash the fruits and came back with a fruit platter, the live stream had already ended.
"Do you eat oranges? Can you help me peel one? I have a recording tomorrow and can't peel oranges."
Qin Wei walked over and sat beside her, handing her an orange.
Qiao Sixiao tilted her head and laughed, "What a lame excuse."
After saying that, she reluctantly took the orange but peeled it slowly with her uninjured left hand.
"It was so lively during the live stream just now. I even heard Hayden's voice. I wonder what they were talking about," Qin Wei asked casually while watching cartoons on her phone, not expecting her to finish peeling the orange anytime soon.
"After you left, a woman came and accused Chu Hao of being heartless and fickle, saying that he was ruthless..."
"In their studio's small garden, she cried and made a scene, even plucking many jasmine plants."
"And then?" Qin Wei glanced at the jasmine flowers on the balcony, got up, fetched some ice cubes from the kitchen's refrigerator, put them in a cup, and handed it to Qiao Sixiao. By the time she came back, the orange was already peeled.
"And then the livestream ended. Considering the popularity of this show, the internet is probably going crazy by now. In a little while, the media will dig up the whole story and reveal the cause and effect," Qiao Sixiao said as she pushed the orange into Qin Wei's mouth. She continued, "You should go water the plants. Why do you buy them and then ignore them at home? Also, help me trim my nails tonight. I have a follow-up appointment at the hospital tomorrow, and I don't want the doctor to think I ate this orange."
"Seriously," Qin Wei replied.
"What did you say?" Qiao Sixiao frowned. Just as she was about to ask why Qin Wei had such a strong opinion about trimming nails, she noticed that Qin Wei was staring at her phone with a serious expression.
It seemed that what made her curse was not the trivial matters she mentioned.
"They're attacking me relentlessly. I haven't even figured out what's going on, and people have already started smearing me," Qin Wei held up her phone to show Qiao Sixiao the trending topics:
#QinWeiChuHao#
#QinWeiThirdParty#
#QinWeiInterfering#
#KickTheThirdPartyOutOfTheEntertainmentCircle#
...
How dirty.
...
On the third day of her date with Chu Hao, everyone was curious if Qin Wei would show up.
After all, yesterday, after she left, a farce played out in the live stream room. Although she wasn't involved, she was also affected. A few marketing accounts suddenly started manipulating the situation online, piecing together the speculations of several individuals into a complete story, reconstructing the "truth" for everyone.
"Chu Hao is already married. Qin Wei admires his talent and they've long been secretly in love. They pretended not to know each other for the sake of public opinion and went on a date yesterday. However, Chu Hao's wife discovered the truth and came to confront Qin Wei and Chu Hao, as Chu Hao wanted to abandon his original partner. Then, all hell broke loose."
Some people actually believed it, genuinely getting angry about the supposed genuine emotions involved. They even posted articles defending the original wife.
The online backlash continued until Chu Hao released a statement, and Gu Minghua also stepped forward to say, "This is Chu Hao's private matter and should not be discussed online. However, it is not how everyone has been spreading rumors, and it has nothing to do with Qin Wei. This is our only statement, and we will hold the rumor mongers responsible."
Some people believe it, while others are still spectators, from yesterday until now, there has been constant chatter. Everyone is waiting in the livestream room, hoping to see if the person involved will show up today.
As the livestream begins, the number of viewers starts skyrocketing, with more attention than any other day before.
A pink Bugatti sports car comes into view, such a flashy vehicle.
No one expected that today Qin Wei herself would come driving.
Not only did she come, but she dressed meticulously as always. Wearing the latest Dior suit, a pair of sunglasses from the same brand, her appearance is even more ostentatious than ever.
Danmu comments:
【If you're really the other woman, either behave yourself or don't dare to come at all!】
【So, as someone driving a 30 million RMB car, wearing the latest designer fashion, and sporting a limited edition watch, I, Lu E, have gradually transformed from an orphan of the entertainment circle into its darling. Is it necessary for me to be the other woman? What's the point?】
【My sister isn't the type to have love on the brain. Anxing has already sued that yxh for spreading rumors. Wei Feng's restraint is a reflection of her character, and she trusts Anxing's legal team. Anxing is still reliable in this aspect. The internet is not above the law. Please take note.】
【Let me express my surprise. Her license plate flashed by, and it has already gone viral online. Vx1314, wow! If there's no candy, we'll just have to tough it out ourselves.】
