Σ(⊙▽⊙”a Eh?
The little assistant had never encountered such a forceful way of responding and was instantly stunned by Qin Chaoyue’s wording.
Jiang Lingye’s gaze was also fixed on Qin Chaoyue.
This “sister” of his was truly blunt; she could easily provoke someone with just a few words. He himself had been driven to jump out of his skin by her earlier, but now that the same thing was happening to someone else…
Actually.
It felt pretty great.
It felt as refreshing as drinking a bowl of ice water in the peak of summer!
The production assistant could only stand there with an awkward smile and apologize.
Jiang Lingye helped explain: “Zhuo Xi was likely intentionally delaying. He and I—”
“You hit him.”
Qin Chaoyue glanced at him and pointed it out directly: “It seems that as a top star, you haven’t fared all that well in the entertainment industry.”
Anyone could step up and push him around.
Qin Chaoyue didn’t fully understand the inner workings of the entertainment industry, but she wasn’t about to make things difficult for a mere worker. She dismissed the little assistant and stepped aside to make a phone call.
In less than three minutes.
There was another knock on the dressing room door.
Qin Chaoyue: “Come in.”
Quite a few people entered, each carrying large bags and packages. Jiang Lingye’s sharp eyes recognized several of them as well-known stylists in the industry.
Daily looks, stage looks, red carpet looks… they were all there.
And now they had all appeared here, at the beck and call of Qin Chaoyue.
Jiang Lingye’s assessment of this “sister’s” power rose to another level.
Regardless of interests.
At the same time, he leaned away to the side.
Qin Chaoyue turned around: “What are you hiding from?”
?
“Come here.”
Qin Chaoyue beckoned him over, as if calling a puppy. Without waiting for Jiang Lingye’s reaction, she gave instructions to the people below.
“Make him look a bit better.”
Jiang Lingye was rebellious, or perhaps just awkward: “I won’t—”
However, President Qin never cared about others’ opinions when getting things done. The stylists were very obedient and immediately hoisted Jiang Lingye up.
The instigator watched from below, letting the youth be surrounded by several stylists, being molded and tweaked at their will.
Qin Chaoyue said:
“Right now, the only thing on your entire body worth looking at is your face.”
“Don’t go embarrassing me.”
She completely forgot that she was only participating in this show as “Jiang Lingye’s sister.”
She was the supporting character in this scenario.
“What about you?”
After calming down slightly, Jiang Lingye’s anger subsided, and he asked again.
The youth’s eyelids drooped slightly, his strikingly thick eyelashes hiding the emotions in his eyes. Only his voice sounded slightly dimmed:
“After all, these are people you invited.”
“No need.”
Qin Chaoyue tilted her head, and her ink-black hair immediately cascaded down like a cloud, contrasting with her porcelain-white skin and exquisite features.
Outlining, diffusing…
Even the dark eyes she used to look at people gained a touch of thick, soft depth. Her luscious red lips curved into a faint smile.
“I’m not like you—”
“I was born beautiful.”
Radiant and dazzling.
It fell into… Jiang Lingye’s eyes, lighting up a bright yet faint spark amidst the darkness.
“I’m not like you, you hollow-looking—”
With just one sentence, she ruined all of Jiang Lingye’s good mood: “I was staying up late! Staying up late!!”
“So why were you staying up late?”
“…” Jiang Lingye pursed his lips and stopped talking again.
He was in the wrong!
“See~” Qin Chaoyue sighed, flicking her fingertips, “As expected, you weren’t thinking of anything good.”
“………………”
Jiang Lingye’s handsome face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Right now, he just wanted to blow up this room!
“My Siblings” is a reality variety show where celebrities participate with their family members, working together to overcome challenges.
Through the conversations and interaction patterns between the celebrities and their families, the audience can get a better and more detailed look at their private selves.
The program had announced in advance that it would use a full live-stream format. It became a hit before it even aired, attracting the attention and anticipation of countless people.
Currently, there were many speculations online regarding the guest list, and the topic’s discussion heat remained high. However, the production team’s confidentiality work was excellent; the occasional leak of ambiguous information only pushed the hype several notches higher.
Until today—
“My Siblings” officially premiered!
【Here it comes, here it comes!】
【First!】
【The production team’s little brat is so tight-lipped. If the show isn’t good or the guests aren’t big enough, you little brat, just wait for the backlash!】
【Whether it’s a mule or a horse, hurry up and bring it out for a walk!】
Director Guo sat before the monitor, watching the flood of viewer comments, grinning from ear to ear.
The production assistant came over. Since the director was her biological uncle, she naturally began to complain:
“The temper of the person appearing with Jiang Lingye is really huge…”
Before she could finish, her uncle and director, Guo Xuehai, suddenly jumped up from his reclining chair, his expression stern:
“What did you do?”
Yu Jiajia was bewildered and recounted what had just happened, finally adding her own opinion:
“Zhuo Xi was indeed a bit too much. The makeup artists we hired weren’t just for him, yet he kept delaying and delaying. I think the makeup artist couldn’t even paint a flower on his face in the end.”
“He’s only acting arrogant because Jiang Lingye is currently being trampled by millions of people. But Jiang Lingye’s face is truly beautiful; even without makeup, he looks better than Zhuo Xi did after an hour of fussing. It’s just that with his current reputation online… Uncle, is it really okay that our show invited him?”
“Also…”
The young girl ended by cupping her face in a fangirl daze: “That sister is so cool!”
“Are you sure you didn’t cause trouble? Didn’t offend anyone?” Guo Xuehai’s tone was serious.
Yu Jiajia shook her head: “You told me beforehand, so I was polite to everyone. If I cursed, I did it in my head. I guarantee they can’t tell my true thoughts.”
Only then did Director Guo slowly breathe a sigh of relief.
The staff below didn’t know, but he, as the director, and the higher-ups knew very well—
This “Qin Chaoyue,” Jiang Lingye’s sister, had an extraordinary background!
On the very day of her arrival, she invested a hundred million, replacing the civilian guest the original agency was about to arrange for Jiang Lingye, and parachuted directly into the production team.
Just that level of financial power and boldness to throw money around was not something a small variety show director like him could easily offend.
Fearing that the staff might leak information online and affect the authenticity and viewership of the show, they hadn’t notified everyone.
Now, facing his niece, Guo Xuehai gave a few subtle hints.
Yu Jiajia, a clear-headed college student, wasn’t too stupid: “You mean that sister is very powerful, and Jiang Lingye might actually make a comeback?”
Guo Xuehai gave her a meaningful look, leaving her to realize it herself.
Yu Jiajia suddenly slapped her thigh.
“I knew Jiang Lingye was the best-looking one in Burning! Trust the sister, the sister can do it!!”
Guo Xuehai: “…”
This silly child is beyond saving ヽ(ー_ー)ノ
…
The guests appeared one by one.
【Sister Mucheng, ahhh!】
【Sister is too beautiful! The first-love template, Xu Mucheng! The human fantasy, Xu Mucheng! Absolutely beautiful and sweet Xu Mucheng!】
【Ever heard of a natural-born actress? A promising future, no regrets in joining the fandom. Please look forward to our Baibai’s upcoming historical idol drama “Love’s Curse”!】
【Ahhh! Xu Mucheng and Luo Zibai are in the same variety show, and they’re siblings—Luo-Ri-Cheng-Xi is real (szd)!】
【Luo-Ri-Cheng-Xi are continuing their fate on a variety show, a super sweet and beautiful CP… those who can’t get into this CP are struggling, so tasteless! Ship it! Everyone ship it hard!】
【Little Pear! My daughter! You’re finally back in the entertainment industry. Let mama give you a huge kiss!】
【Holy crap! Why is Zhuo Xi here too?】
【His heat hasn’t been low lately. Even as a passerby, I felt pity for him after he was hit by Jiang Lingye. But he looks in good shape today; he must have recovered from the injury. Hugs.】
【I wonder if Jiang Lingye is here. If he is, there’ll be some fun to watch (funny face).】
【Jiang Lingye’s fans should stop fishing in muddy waters here. Go watch Seven Deadly Sins—tainted artists get out of the entertainment industry!!】
【Seriously, people like Jiang Lingye still have fans? You fans should get some better taste.】
【Don’t bother persuading them, a dog can’t stop eating shit.】
Just as it was Jiang Lingye’s turn to appear, Qin Chaoyue saw him.
Several stylists had collaborated, but the final makeup on the youth’s face was extremely light.
For no other reason than that Jiang Lingye’s own features were simply too superior.
Lately, he had been plagued by scandals and lacked enough rest. Combined with staying up late last night overthinking, the youth’s complexion looked slightly worse, with a faint bluish shadow under his eyes.
A light touch of concealer was enough.
Under the skilled hands of the makeup artist, a few strokes outlined Jiang Lingye’s already exquisite features, making them even more stunning.
It was an extreme beauty bordering on sharpness; his eyes were dark and determined, like a blade capable of cutting through all obstacles and hardships.
In a way… he looked more and more like Qin Chaoyue.
As their gazes met, Qin Chaoyue curled her lips at him, silently mouthing:
—”Not bad, you have about thirty percent of my beauty.”
The youth didn’t show much emotion on his face and even rolled his eyes at her, but his heart lifted slightly.
Facing the filth and abuse on the internet and before the cameras no longer felt quite so unbearable.
【Tsk, he actually dared to come.】
【Jiang Lingye, get out of the entertainment industry!】
【Jiang Lingye, get out of the entertainment industry!】
【Jiang Lingye, get out of the entertainment industry!】
【Haha, didn’t Jiang Lingye get blacklisted again because he hit Zhuo Xi? Now the two of them are on the same show… how exciting! Fight! Fight!】
【Beautiful, love to watch, fight more.】
【Baby Xixi is too pitiful. Hold onto that “sacrificial lamb” script. You heartless production team, using the grudge with Jiang Lingye to stir up negative traffic! I hope the production team dies soon.】
【Jiang Lingye, get out of the entertainment industry! The Jiang Lingye fans watching the drama above, stop pretending; the smell is too strong to hide.】
【Xiguangs, let’s report them in a wave, let’s crash the production team.】
【MY! GOD!】
Just as Director Guo had predicted, Jiang Lingye was currently covered in scandals, but that didn’t stop the “black-red” fame from bringing in the crowds!
The bullet chat started tearing each other apart the moment he appeared. “My Siblings” was feasting on the traffic!
This was also their original purpose for agreeing to let Jiang Lingye and Zhuo Xi be on the same stage.
The only thing to worry about was that person.
Until now, Director Guo still hadn’t figured out if she was just an ordinary wealthy fan of Jiang Lingye, or…
She looked far too young.
While he was nursing this headache, the bullet chat suddenly stopped arguing, and a massive wave of 【!!】 flashed by.
“What happened?” Director Guo hurried to look.
【Hiss—】
【God damn it! I was wondering why my huge wife disappeared when I got home from work. It turns out you guys brought my wife here! Wife, my beautiful wife!!】
