After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 202 - 200: Could She Be Misinterpreting It?

Chapter 202: Chapter 200: Could She Be Misinterpreting It?

"Are you... joking? What about Ah Hao and the others? Aren’t you overseeing them?" Wang Sirui asked anxiously and cautiously.

"They don’t have any major schedules recently, so they don’t need me. An assistant can handle it," the manager replied, seemingly seeing through his thoughts. "You’re different. You’re still hanging on the top of the hot search list. If I don’t follow you, and you say something inappropriate, it’ll be a PR headache for me. Better to cut it off at the source."

Wang Sirui: "..."

He stumbled and sat back on the bed, lying down, eyes open but hollow, as his future seemed filled with darkness.

The manager walked over to him, nudged his foot, and said, "Don’t sleep, get ready, we’re going to record the variety show."

Wang Sirui reluctantly sat up, looking at the assistant for help.

The assistant saw the look and gave a helpless shrug, offering a look of encouragement.

Wang Sirui suddenly felt his life was over, no hope at all!!!

Compared to the turmoil faced by Wang Sirui and Chen Yao, Qin Yun woke up naturally.

She woke up past eight, and just after freshening up, she received a message from Yang Leqi asking if she was awake.

If it wasn’t for Yang Leqi insisting on checking if the two were living together last night, she wouldn’t have left. However, Qin Yun calmly shut Pei Yan and Yang Leqi out.

Pei Yan, on the other hand, seemed unsurprised and went straight to his room.

Yang Leqi was left dumbfounded, why wasn’t it what she imagined?

Her favorite couple were not living together, which frustrated her. If Mr. Pei didn’t take the initiative, how could there be a story?!

How could they proceed to the next step!

So Yang Leqi decided to seek out Qin Yun early in the morning. Since Mr. Pei wasn’t making a move, she had to do it herself!!

What she didn’t know was that Mr. Pei had made his move, but was too forward... and got pushed back to square one, put in ’timeout’.

Now... he dared not be too forward.

Had to take it step by step, slowly.

Meanwhile, in the six-person group chat, Wang Sirui sent multiple crying emojis, enough to express his collapse.

Wang Sirui: [Crying.jpg]

Wang Sirui: [Crying.jpg]

Wang Sirui: [Crying.jpg]

Wang Sirui: [I came back and found my manager in my room! My manager said they will follow me recently and told me to quit drinking! I’m a mess. Crying.jpg]

Wang Sirui: [Is anyone here? Is everyone still asleep?!! Why do I have to go through such a horrific thing early in the morning, while you all sleep soundly.]

Chen Yao: [My public persona crumbled! I’m the one who should be crying the hardest!! I never thought I’d ever make it onto the hot search in such a way. Goodbye.jpg]

Yang Leqi, preparing to find Qin Yun, heard continuous message notifications, so she opened them.

Yang Leqi: [What’s going on? What hot search??]

She quickly logged out and opened Weibo, glancing at the top hot search: #Chen Yao and Wang Sirui fighting over a street pole#

Yang Leqi: "??" What kind of hot search is this?

She quickly clicked in, wasn’t it last night’s scene where Brother Yao and Wang Sirui were demonstrating on-site?

But... weren’t the comments under this Weibo quite cheerful and positive? It didn’t seem like Chen Yao lost a significant number of followers.

In contrast to the reactions of the two in the group chat, she was puzzled, what had she missed?

Then she noticed that their variety show "On the Road" was also brought to the hot search by netizens: #Chen Yao, Wang Sirui join "On the Road"#

Although this search ranked eleventh, it indeed gave the program extra publicity.

Yang Leqi: [I don’t think there’s anything wrong with this hot search. In fact, it seems like Brother Yao not only didn’t lose fans, but he also gained quite a few. The comments on Weibo are pretty positive, albeit a bit silly, they’re quite joyful.]

Chen Yao: [...]

Pei Yan: [Suitable for transformation, broadening the range of roles.]

Wang Sirui: [My manager also said that with good guidance, this is a good transformation opportunity. But this hot search is toughest on me!! My manager has to follow me!! Do you know how terrifying she is!!]

Chen Yao: [Indeed, I discussed this with my manager earlier. My previous public persona was too singular, so the roles I got were very limited, mostly similar to my past roles, which didn’t allow for much of a breakthrough, preventing audiences from recognizing me. Although this time the hot search is... indescribable, it is indeed an opportunity. If I succeed in transforming, I should receive more scripts with different settings.]

Yang Leqi: [So, not only is there no problem with this hot search, but it’s quite good. Plus, because of you two, the variety show we recorded was pushed back to hot search eleven by netizens. So I think you two are the heroes, the director should give you a raise!! No, the director should be a decent person! Stop messing with us!]

Wang Sirui: [hello? Would someone pay attention to me? I’m the biggest victim here!! My manager said it wouldn’t affect me much, but it sure has affected both my mental and physical state!! Is this how you treat heroes?]

Chen Yao: [Hmm... although, as one of the parties involved, I didn’t really want to be on this hot search, it seems a part of the new fanbase consists of your fans, so thank you, for helping me gain more followers.]

Though they didn’t really have much in common, this hot search indeed brought him an increase of one or two million followers.

Yang Leqi: [?? Did I call you a major hero?]

Wang Sirui: [What do you mean? As one of the main people in this hot search, do I not deserve recognition? Even Brother Yao thanked me! That’s acknowledgment of my contribution!]

Yang Leqi: [Hmm? What? My signal’s not so good, I’m going to find Sister Yun.]

Wang Sirui immediately followed: [Wait for me, I’m coming too!!]

When Yang Leqi arrived, she knocked on the door.

The door quickly opened, and Yang Leqi, ready to greet Sister Yun with a smile, was surprised to see that the face wasn’t Qin Yun’s but rather the expressionless face of a man she recognized, none other than the other half of her favorite couple—Pei Yan.

"Mr. Pei? What are you doing here?" Yang Leqi was momentarily stunned, then couldn’t help but wonder if last night was all an illusion? Were they actually sleeping in the same room last night?

"Come in, she just finished washing up." Pei Yan nodded and stepped aside to make way.

Yang Leqi: "."

That statement was so ambiguous...

Could she be thinking the wrong thing?
