Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“By the way, Zhu Ling knows a lot of people and has connections in the entertainment industry. She might know who this is. 1 have to ask her,” Jing Yao said and reposted the trending topic to Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling had been busy with the studio recently and did not pay much attention to this.
Zhu Ling: [What is this?]
Jing Yao: [ It’s trending. 1 lurry up and think about whether any of the female celebrities you know meet the requirements.]
“…” Zhu Ling.
Zhu Ling: [Yes, there’s one. She’s especially compatible.]
Jing Yao sent an emoji of watching a show and urged Zhu Ling.
Jing Yao: [Tell me quickly.]
Zhu Ling: [Aren’t you Jing Yao, the female celebrity, JY? And, the industry giant is Liang Xun?]
Jing Yao: […]
Jing Yao was shocked and confused.
Liang Xun was still sitting beside her. Seeing her expression, he shifted his gaze to her cell phone. After reading their chat history, his frown relaxed slightly.
His wife was too silly. She obviously didn’t expect it to be herself. She even went to ask Zhu Ling.
“It’s just some nonsense. There’s no need to take it to heart,” Liang Xun said.
Jing Yao tilted her head and looked at Liang Xun. “But after Zhu Ling said that, I feel like it’s talking about me…”
Liang Xun was caught between laughter and tears. “We have registered our marriage. If it is really talking about you, it is a rumor. The person who should be afraid should be the person who bought this trending topic.”
Jing Yao thought about it carefully and smiled. “That’s true. I actually want to see what happens next.”
As Jing Yao spoke, she continued to scroll through Weibo. The contemporary netizens were keen to watch the show. Even if there were no pictures or truth, just a small essay could make many people jump in the comments section.
Netizen 1: [She’s too cheap. Moreover, the wife is pregnant.]
Netizen 2: [I’ve been in the fan groups of various celebrities all year round, but I can’t remember any female celebrity who fits this criteria.]
Netizen 3: [Think out of the box. Why do you have to start with female celebrities? Don’t you think it’s easier to break through with the sugar daddy? He’s young and promising, a big shot in the industry. Moreover, he just got married. Someone who pays attention to financial news, tell me which big boss meets this criteria.]
Netizen 4: [The person above is right. 1’11 take a seat first and wait for concrete evidence.]

Jing Yao looked at the comments and then at Liang Xun.
Liang Xun was puzzled by her gaze and said helplessly, “Why are you looking at me?”
Jing Yao stared at Liang Xun and checked them one by one. “You’re young and promising. You’re also a big shot in the industry. You’re a newlywed. Although it’s fake, it barely fits.”
Liang Xun was caught between laughter and tears. He stroked her head and smiled. “Alright, don’t be conflicted. I’ll handle these matters.”
Jing Yao nodded and whispered, “But I still want to watch it.”
Liang Xun said,”… Sure, but don’t forget your current situation. You can’t play with your cell phone too much. Are you full?”
Jing Yao nodded.
“Let’s go then.” Liang Xun stood up first, took Jing Yao’s bag, and brought her home.
After returning home, he urged Jing Yao to take a shower and sleep.
After Jing Yao entered the bathroom, he went to the study and made a call.
Zhu Ling was not surprised to receive his call.
“How do you usually handle such situations?” Liang Xun went straight to the point.
Zhu Ling said slowly, “I have to know first if the two of you are really married. I’m talking about the legally binding marriage certificate.”
Liang Xun frowned. “Of course it’s true. What’s there to suspect?”
Zhu Ling heaved a sigh of relief. “Then there’s no problem. Don’t worry about how the trending searches ferment. The most important thing is to find out who’s targeting Yaoyao as soon as possible. Also, you have to be extra careful these few days. The mastermind might send someone to follow you and Yaoyao and want to take substantial videos and photos.”
Liang Xun said, “I know.”
Zhu Ling suddenly smiled. “It’s very popular. When the time comes, 1’11 make your relationship public and slap their faces… No, no, forget it. Our Yaoyao has to rely on her work. She’s only 22 years old. If it’s exposed that she’s married, her future development will be limited.”
Liang Xun’s face darkened. For some reason, Zhu Ling had never liked him.
“Since there’s nothing else, 1’11 hang up.” With that said, Liang Xun hung up.
Zhu Ling smiled mischievously as she held the phone, but she soon frowned again. Who exactly created this trending topic? Jing Yao was not very popular and didn’t make any enemies in the industry, so she couldn’t pose any threat to anyone.
After Liang Xun hung up, he called another person.
The call went through and he said directly, “Find out who the participants in this trending search are. Also, send two people to keep an eye on Jing Yuan and Jing Mo and see if they do anything abnormal..”
