Chapter 153: 153 You can talk about me, but you cannot talk about her.
The sleep-deprived Shi Lan miraculously looked radiant the next morning.
After sending Yan Shixiu off, she hurried to submit her manuscript, then went for an energetic morning run.
When Sun Ling went to Shi Lan’s room and saw the neatly made bed, she immediately guessed that the boss had once again wasted a beautiful night.
This beauty delivered right to her doorstep, and yet the boss had repeatedly withstood the temptation; the boss really was the boss.
Not long after the morning scenes began shooting, the efficient Tang Ze sent someone to deliver red wine to the hotel. Chen Beini’s side prepared tea leaves that Director Tang liked, and the two discussed also ordering a cake for him.
“Yesterday my assistant told me that scumbag discussed with Director Tang about setting up a gathering, so I guess he will definitely make a move on you tonight.”
Shi Lan looked at Chen Beini’s dark circles, then asked, “So, you’re unhappy all night for this?”
“I’m not unhappy because of this!” Chen Beini explained, “Now whenever I see the words ‘National Couple,’ it’s like a thorn in my eye. I was arguing with netizens while surfing the web last night. How should I politely remind them, without losing my grace, that that scumbag and I have already broken up? Last night I even saw your ‘Destiny Couple’ with Gu Chengyu, and I got goosebumps. An Lan, I think our two should form a ‘couple pairing,’ call it ‘Annie Couple.’ How about that?”
The Missy doesn’t think it’s a good idea…
“I!” Chen Beini said, pounding her chest, “will personally carry the banner!”
Ever since using her small account to post on Weibo yesterday, Chen Beini decided to abandon her main account. She had said she wouldn’t appear in public for the time being, but occasionally sharing life experiences shouldn’t count as making appearances, should it?
@Chen Beini’s small account: “Me… and @Annie herself, An Lan, will be the Annie Couple starting today; all others are cults. Kindly take note.”
After reading this, netizens were full of question marks.
@A Sky Full of Stars: “What is this, the Alliance?”
@Little Pear Swirls: “Is Chen Beini hinting at a breakup?”
@The Great Fool of the East: “I’m sorry, but I actually think it’s quite captivating?”
@Waiting Too Long for HappyTea: “Let An Lan be; the sensory appeal isn’t good…”
Chen Beini’s small account: “You can talk about me, but not her. [Smile]”//@Waiting Too Long for HappyTea: “An…”
Chen Beini was having a jolly time with the netizens, while at the same time, Shi Lan was studying the list of support funds released by Gu Chengyu’s official fan club, aiming to strip away the facade of Gu fans’ purity by striking from within their ranks.
Just past four o’clock, Director Tang announced that they could wrap up early for the day and informed everyone of the location for the evening meal.
Shi Lan sent a WeChat to President Yan to confirm whether he would make it tonight.
President Yan: “Can’t say for sure right now; having a heated argument with a bunch of old men, utterly exhausted.”
Shi Lan immediately sent an emoji of an old man looking at his phone on the subway and said, “Sun Ling loves to use this one, says it relieves stress.”
After seeing it, President Yan chuckled knowingly, “In case I can’t make it, hope tomorrow’s Glory event goes well, also… missing you.”
The Missy didn’t get a chance to reply to President Yan’s WeChat, because, selfishly, she still hoped that scumbag would come.
However, after Director Tang announced wrap-up, Gu Chengyu, along with his assistant, came swaggering over to Shi Lan and said, “Have a drink tonight, chat a bit? I have some good news to tell you.”
There, in front of his ex-girlfriend, Gu Chengyu shamelessly asked out his former ‘spare tire.’
Shi Lan looked up casually at Gu Chengyu, “There’s nothing to talk about, but… I can drink.”
Thinking Shi Lan was giving him an opening, Gu Chengyu smiled as well, “See you later then.”
Shi Lan sneered to herself, planning for tonight: Daddy Shi will teach you a lesson on how to perform, and how low someone can sink when they’re drunk.
“You actually agreed to drink with him?” Chen Beini rolled her eyes incessantly on the side.
“You’ve personally taken up our cp banner, how could I let you down? The show is tonight…” Shi Lan finished speaking, patted Chen Beini on the shoulder, and headed off with Sun Ling to remove her makeup.
