Chapter 218 The Vicious Female Supporting Character in the Mind-Reading Novel 28
Li Mengzhi was stunned by the shout, her mind went blank, and she could only stammer, "I'm sorry..."
Fei Xiao regretted it immediately after shouting. He really liked Li Mengzhi, otherwise he wouldn't have risked making it official.
But he also harbored some resentment towards her.
He didn't want to rush into making an official announcement; he wanted to wait until he was more stable before doing so.
But Li Mengzhi had waited too long and didn't want to wait any longer.
Fei Xiao gritted his teeth and prepared to make an official announcement through this variety show.
He had planned it all out perfectly. If things really went according to plan, even if there were some obstacles when he and Li Mengzhi finally made their official announcement, he wouldn't be too affected.
Who knew that just because she said Yun Qing was too scheming, Song Yanlin would cause her relationship with Li Mengzhi to be exposed prematurely.
The fans are clearly strongly opposed, and it's unclear how bad the situation is. He has also offended Song Yanlin, and he doesn't know if he will face retaliation after the show is over.
I was already feeling irritable and anxious, and then I had to accept the punishment from the production team, climbing mountains with heavy loads, which was exhausting. I didn't even have lunch, and for dinner I only had pickled vegetables and steamed buns.
His mood was extremely bad.
Li Mengzhi doesn't understand anything. Does she think a few words of encouragement and comfort will work? Her chattering will only annoy him more.
He couldn't help but think that if it weren't for her, he wouldn't have ended up in such a terrible situation.
But seeing Li Mengzhi's pale face and tearful eyes, he felt a pang of heartache.
"I'm sorry, Mengzhi, I was in a really bad mood. I shouldn't have snapped at you."
After he finished speaking, he noticed Yun Qing and Song Yanlin. His expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal and greeted them with a smile.
Yun Qing: ...The audience saw your change of expression.
What could Fei Xiao do? Song Yanlin was the head of the Song Group; it would be too easy for him to be unable to recover.
He would rather be criticized by the audience for being obsequious than offend Song Yanlin again. What if Song Yanlin misunderstands him and thinks he harbors resentment if he doesn't greet him with a smile?
Song Yanlin ignored him and pulled Yun Qing away.
Li Mengzhi stared blankly at the two holding hands, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Why are they allowed to hold hands so openly?
They haven't even been voted out yet, but they don't seem worried about being exposed at all.
Her relationship with Fei Xiao was already common knowledge, and she thought she could finally stand openly by his side. But in the end, they still had to keep their distance, and now it seemed that even their relationship was affected.
Was it a mistake for her to be so determined to make it official?
Li Mengzhi is still unaware of how badly Fei Xiao's fans have insulted her.
Even though she was the one who got yelled at by Fei Xiao, Fei Xiao's fans are still criticizing her.
They called her a nuisance, a jerk, and someone who was clingy and desperate, saying that Fei Xiao didn't like her at all. Some even had conspiracy theories, saying that she used underhanded tactics to force Fei Xiao to make their relationship official.
They tried their best to whitewash their idol, as if that would make him still the perfect idol they loved, and that everything was just Li Mengzhi's fault!
*
[If you're going to leave, then leave. Why did you hold my hand?]
Yun Qing was conflicted, unsure whether she should shake off Song Yanlin's hand.
If they don't shake it off, won't that make the audience doubt them?
But it's not good to shake them off either.
Song Yanlin only got along with Fei Xiao because he was helping her. If she dumped Song Yanlin in front of Fei Xiao, how embarrassing would that be for him!
Fei Xiao might even be laughing at him in his heart.
No matter what, Song Yanlin was her money jar.
Why should my little piggy bank be mocked by the baboon?!
[The little pig is so cute, I want to protect it!]
Song Yanlin: ...A money jar is fine, I don't need a specific image, thank you!
Yun Qing didn't break free from Song Yanlin's hand, but she walked a little slower, falling behind him, making it look as if Song Yanlin was dragging her along.
Only after turning the corner and Fei Xiao and Li Mengzhi could no longer see the two figures did Yun Qing withdraw her hand and say, "Thank you, President Song. This part of the road was too steep. If you hadn't helped me, I don't know how long it would have taken me to climb up."
Song Yanlin glanced at her and said in a nonchalant tone, "You're welcome."
[Hahahaha, I'm just watching your act, let's see how long you can keep up the act!]
Don't worry! It's just holding hands, nothing serious. We've seen you two holding hands before; you're worldly people.
Yun Qing and Song Yanlin still missed the fourth round, but they saw other guests. If they sped up, they should have a chance to make it to the fifth round.
But this section of the mountain road is steeper and more tiring.
Song Yanlin reached out his hand and said, "I'll pull you, let's hurry up."
Yun Qing was indeed tired from climbing, and isn't it only natural for teammates to help each other?
So she reached out and grabbed Song Yanlin's hand.
With Song Yanlin's help, she did feel much more relaxed.
However, once you hold hands for a long time, you get used to it, and even when you reach a flat area, you forget to let go, and you might even accidentally end up with your fingers intertwined.
So when they overtook Qi Fei's group, Qi Fei was dumbfounded. "Are you two here on a date, holding hands?"
After seeing how Yun Qing and Song Yanlin were guessing the words, even the slowest person would have a pretty good idea of what was going on.
The audience must have noticed something was wrong, and perhaps that's why they simply exposed themselves?
Are the rest of them safe today?
Thinking about it this way, she felt a little relieved. She didn't want to be punished like Fei Xiao and the others. The production team was too honest; they meant carrying heavy loads while climbing the mountain!
Yun Qing has already spotted the staff for the fifth challenge; the program's logo is quite eye-catching.
But now there is another group of guests ahead of them, Xiao Nan and his teammate—Xue Manman, who became a sensation after a hit drama and whose popularity rivals that of Meng Leyi.
Yun Qing was only focused on surpassing them and grabbing the food card, completely unaware of how tightly she and Song Yanlin were holding hands.
When they caught up with Xiao Nan and Xue Manman, Xue Manman exclaimed in surprise, "Are you two prepared to be voted out today?"
Yun Qing paused for a moment, then looked down at her and Song Yanlin's intertwined hands and fell silent.
When did it become like this?
Using the excuse of teammates helping each other doesn't seem to hold water.
What should we do?
[Song Yanlin, say something!]
Song Yanlin: ...It's already like this, what do you want me to say?
"I think the audience probably already guessed it. Since I'm going to be voted out anyway, and I have something to do at my company, it's better to vote it out sooner rather than later."
Xue Manman asked in surprise, "President Song, do you mean that after being voted out, you have to withdraw from the show? What about Su Su?"
Yun Qing said helplessly, "It depends on him. This is a couples' variety show. If he leaves, then I definitely have to leave too!"
As she spoke, she squeezed Song Yanlin's hand, silently praising him, "Well done!"
Viewers who can promptly spot problems with these actors are likely those who pay attention to them. Since they are paying attention, they must have a favorable impression of them and naturally want to continue seeing them.
You should all know what to do now, right?
Since it's already impossible to explain now, instead of trying to cover it up, it's better to just reveal it outright, which will also make the audience lose the excitement of discovering a secret.
Moreover, she's just an unknown actress, and Song Yanlin is not in the entertainment industry. Not many viewers would be eager to ask them questions, so they would definitely be more willing to vote for others.
Yun Qing felt that they still had a chance to escape this calamity.
As for leaving the show, they never said they were leaving!
Song Yanlin simply said it would be better to submit it sooner rather than later.
If you invest early, you won't have to bother with acting anymore, and you'll naturally have more energy to deal with company matters.
Is there anything wrong with what he said?
She simply said that she would leave when Song Yan left, and if he didn't leave, she naturally wouldn't leave either!
