Chapter 143 - One-Hundred and Forty-Three: Bullet Screen
Yan Tang stated, “You did the right thing, Shi Xiu. The best thing you can do for that child is not expose her matter to the public. Alright, I’ll admit it, I’m impressed. You’re so young, but you really taught me a lesson there.” Yan Tang was a straightforward person and said whatever was on her mind.
[It’s obvious who is truly kind-hearted! You’re not a good person just because you say you are.]
[I learned something today. I’ll follow the Shi family when I donate in the future. Is anyone here in charge of the Shi family’s charity? Give me an account; I want to join your organization’s efforts.]
[Don’t be silly. The Shi Corporation already has a special donation fund. They don’t need our meager contributions!]
[A contribution is a contribution, no matter how small! Every little bit counts. The main thing I’m most tempted by is that the money I donate will be properly used. I think Shi Xiu is very sensible despite her young age. This girl certainly had a good upbringing.]
[‘Human nature is at its best when it’s not needed, so don’t test humanity.’ ]
[Who is Shi Xiu’s sister-in-law? She’s so insightful! How did all the cultured thinkers end up in one family?]
[Her brother is Shi Nian, so her sister-in-law is Yun Nan! How can you not know that?! Don’t tell me you’re still using a 2G network?]
[Yun Nan is the director of ‘4:30 P.M.’! I suggest you all go and watch that movie if you haven’t yet.]
[Director Yun is a great beauty. She’s a calm and soothing woman with the makings of a heroine.]
[Someone who can say such words must be amazing! I have to watch a movie later.]
[Just so you know, our Shi Xiu is the main lead of ‘4:30 P.M.’]
[Do any of you think Yun Liu is a little b*tchy and pretentious?]
[Yun Liu is great! She’s beautiful and a knockout!]
[You’re the b*tch! Your whole family are b*tches!]
[Why do you guys have to praise someone at the expense of another? Couldn’t we admire these two beauties without fighting? They each have their own unique characteristics. Why compare them like this?]
[Our Yun Liu is the best! She’s beautiful, elegant, and well-educated—unlike some people who use their wealth and status to bully others.] [Who are you calling a bully? Tell me, you bunch of jerks!]
[Yun Liu hires people to pretend to be her fans and hype her name at the slightest sign of trouble. If she’s so great, why doesn’t she show us that by producing some representative work?!]
[Who says that our Yun Liu doesn’t have any representative work? She has already acted in more than 20 shows since her debut.]
[Our Yun Liu has never fought or made a fuss. She’s a multifaceted actress and has been diligently honing her acting skills all this time!]
[Ugh, you have the nerve to call her lackluster and unchanging acting skills
‘multifaceted!]
[Oh yeah?! Shi Xiu has some nerve to show off when she’d only acted in one measly movie! How shameless can she be?!]
[So what if it’s just one movie? Shi Xiu’s low-budget film has earned three billion dollars at the box office. May I ask if any of your idol’s 20-plus movies earned enough to make up for their production costs? Hahahaha]
[Hahahahaha]
[Yun Liu is still accumulating experiences, okay? You guys are just like Shi Xiu, lording her success over everyone else!]
[Hmph! Why argue with such ignorant people? We only have to safeguard our Yun Liu.]
[Hahaha, it’s true what they say! If you can’t win an argument, just be b*tchy about it!]
Xu Yun frowned. Gu Man noticed and weighed her words before she spoke. “The entertainment industry is truly a mess. Auntie, is Shi Xiu planning to pursue a career in the entertainment industry?”
“Dunno,” Xu Yun lightly replied. “She likes it now, but who knows what will happen in the future?”
Gu Man glanced at Lin Yu and Shi Gao. Seeing that they had no intention of speaking, she gritted her teeth and asked, “Auntie, I see the bullet screen is talking about Shi Xiu’s sister-in-law. Are they talking about Shi Kels wife?”
Shi Gao was trying to crack a walnut, and when she heard this, her hand slipped, and the force ended on one of her thumbnails instead. Her newly manicured fingernail shattered audibly.
She hissed in pain, and Han Yuan looked over. “What’s wrong?” Han Yuan inquired.
Shi Gao tucked her injured thumb in her palm to hide it and said with a smile,
“It’s nothing. I’m okay. These walnuts are difficult to crack.”
Xu Yun didn’t notice their little episode. She heard Gu Man’s question and chuckled, “No, Shi Ke’s wife is Xiang Yang. Yun Nan is Shi Nian’s wife.”
Xu Yun’s words blew the four women’s minds. They were stunned. “Shi Nian’s wife?” Han Yuan exclaimed. Her eyes widened, and she questioned Xu Yun, “Hold on a minute. Shi Nian is married?! When did this happen? Why wasn’t I informed?”
A smile immediately appeared on Xu Yun’s face, and she told her, “The two of them registered their marriage, so they’re legally married, but my new daughter-in-law is too busy with work and doesn’t have time to hold a wedding for the time being. Shi Nian defers to his wife, and we defer to them, so the wedding will have to wait until she’s free!”
Xu Yun’s smugness was written all over her face. Gu Man’s expression changed, and she looked at Han Yuan aggrievedly.
Han Yuan refused to give up. She asked, “When did this happen?”
Xu Yun gave it a moment’s thought before replying, “He’s been married for a while now. Gosh, come to think of it, their fates were tied together long ago. Shi Nian’s grandfather arranged a marriage between Shi Nian and Yun Nan when Yun Nan was born..”
