I’m Pregnant with the Villain’s Child-Chapter 294 – Attempt at changing the topiChapter Failed. (2)

Xi Wenjun glanced at Shen Weiyin’s screen. Sure enough, it was a Weibo post about Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen.

“I already told you. Don’t look at news about them before you win the award for film empress! Why do you keep forgetting?!”

Shen Weiyin calmly got up, took out a cigarette and lighter from her bag, walked to the window, and lit the cigarette.

Xi Wenjun strode forward to take the cigarette from Shen Weiyin, but Shen Weiyin blocked her hand.

Shen Weiyin took a deep breath. Tobacco seemed to numb her nerves. “If they write nonsense about me, then just let them.” She coldly looked at Xi Wenjun. “You’re my agent. At this time, you should lock the door and open the window for me.”

She exhaled a ring of smoke. As she looked at the silent night in the distance, she bitterly smiled. “It’s so late. What do you think they’re doing right now?”

“Weiyin! Stop thinking about them!”

“You want me to stop thinking about what I can’t get?” Shen Weiyin scoffed. “At this time, they’re probably making love.”

Xi Wenjun didn’t know how to persuade her. She had said and done everything that should be said and done. Lu Beichuan didn’t care at all about the rumors online. He brought his wife along to various banquets and functions. He confidently showed public displays of affection. Everyone in their social circle knew that Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen were a loving couple. They were practically glued at the hip.

“During this time, I keep thinking what if. What if I hadn’t been so prideful back then? What if I had confessed to him? Perhaps, it would be different now. The more I think about... the more I want it. The more unattainable it is, the more I think about it.” Shen Weiyin lazily looked at Xi Wenjun. “That thought won’t leave my mind. The more I think about it, the more I hate my past self. Pride is worth sh*t!”

Shen Weiyin stared at the ember between her fingers and sneered. “What I can’t have, no one else can have it either.”

Seeing her like this, Xi Wenjun was scared that she was going to do something extreme. “What exactly do you want to do?”

Shen Weiyin smiled. “What can I do? I’m a mere actress. How can I shake up a giant tree like Lu Corporation?”

“It’s good as long as you know. You’re an actress. Your job is to focus on that movie you acted in in the first half of the year. The director from the movie contacted me. The movie trailer will be released at the end of the year. Let’s cooperate with publicizing the movie. Once the release time of the movie is officially confirmed, we’ll be plenty busy.”

Shen Weiyin casually murmured an acknowledgement. It was very windy outside, and the lit part quickly reached the end of the cigarette. She pressed the cigarette butt on the windowsill to extinguish the flame, leaving a dark mark on the windowsill.

“Don’t worry, I must win the title of film empress!”

Xi Wenjun finally smiled. “That’s right. Cheer up. There’s no one eligible to win the film empress title other than you. Come on, let’s go. The director is still waiting for us.”

Hundreds of kilometers away from them, in the Lu’s mansion, Ye Zhen was lying on the bed and reading the animated discussion online with relish. She read all the way from the first page to the last one.

The original poster had such a thorough understanding of the Ye’s family affairs. It had to be someone who had close contact with a member of the Ye’s.

Lu Beichuan entered the room and looked at Ye Zhen, who’s attention was focused on the tablet. He casually asked, “What are you looking at?”

It was just an offhanded question, but Ye Zhen sat up and showed the post to Lu Beichuan. “What should we do? Everyone knows about the “incomparable love” between us.”

Lu Beichuan raised his eyebrows. He took the tablet, casually swiped the screen, and skimmed the post. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

“Actually, they’re not wrong.” Ye Zhen looked at Lu Beichuan with a smile. “Brother-in-law, when did you fall for your sister-in-law?”
