Chapter 13: Definitely Not Her

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was precisely because of this that he sometimes did not understand much about his wife-in-name. Or rather, his ex-wife. In order to be on the trending list, she used all sorts of tricks to do influence-binding and diss others to make herself look good. There were many people scolding her on Weibo, but she trusted her good friend without a doubt. She fell for that guy’s poor acting skills and schemes that only served to ruin her reputation.

He knew that if Bai Yun should completely fall into the crisis of public opinion, his mother would feel terrible. For the sake of his mother’s health, he always had to suppress the bad news when Bai Yun’s mind was not clear.

It couldn’t be helped, since his mother thought rather highly of Bai Yun. Merely marrying Bai Yun wasn’t enough to repay that debt of kindness. He still needed to put on a blissful front and make their marriage seem real. Only then could he reduce his mother’s guilt.

However, the Bai Yun he interacted with in the ward this time seemed to be different.

In the past, Bai Yun had not dared to look at him directly, but the Bai Yun in the ward had a scorching gaze. She did not shy from looking at him and outright stared at his lips.

Chu Jiang pulled off his tie and poured himself a glass of water to moisten his throat. His lips instantly turned watery. When he swallowed, his Adam’s apple throbbed, making him look exceptionally sexy.

Chuckling, he wiped the moisture from his lips with his finger. ‘Lusty woman.’

When his assistant, Yan Sui, came in, he saw his Best Actor chuckling. He couldn’t help but find it strange. Although Chu Jiang usually had a gentle temper, after working overnight, he still couldn’t help but feel frustrated and couldn’t snap out of his acting role. But he seemed to be in a good mood today? In that case, it didn’t seem so difficult to bring up this trending topic.

“Mr. Chu,” he began.

Chu Jiang turned the glass in his hand and raised his eyes lazily. “Yes?”

Yan Sui handed over his phone. “Madam, uh…” After a momentary pause, he decided to change the way he addressed her. “Miss Bai is in a bit of a fix.”

Chu Jiang frowned and snorted. He had just praised that she seemed different, but now it turned out she was still the same? “Who is she involved with this time? Is it troublesome?”

“No, nothing happened to Miss Bai this time. It’s Ge Fei. He claimed he was beaten by Miss Bai.”

Chu Jiang’s lazy expression finally disappeared. Interest piqued, he sat up straight.

He took the phone and skimmed through the trending list.

Ge Fei had always had a bad reputation in the industry. Chu Jiang had not paid much attention to him at first, until he noticed that he often appeared beside Bai Yun.

After he appeared, Bai Yun’s methods also increased. Chu Jiang became suspicious of Ge Fei and secretly instructed Yan Sui to investigate.

Ge Fei used as many dirty tricks as there were in the entertainment industry—sleeping around, quid pro quo sexual harassment, exploiting unspoken rules, to name a few. Chu Jiang had asked Yan Sui to hint Bai Yun a few times, but unfortunately, Bai Yun seemed to trust this friend very much. That aside, she was perhaps being rebellious—the more he didn’t want her to do it, the more she wanted to do it.

In the end, Chu Jiang could only give up persuading Bai Yun. Occasionally, he would get Yan Sui to keep an eye on Ge Fei. As long as nothing serious happened, he would just clean up after her. Fortunately, Ge Fei seemed to have other motives and did not do anything too extreme.

However, Chu Jiang found today’s trending topic interesting. A pure white rabbit had turned around and bitten a disgusting wolf to death.

His eyelids lowered as he sped read through the article recounting the drama. He couldn’t help but be impressed by how vicious she was. At least she was a smart girl who knew how to read people’s emotions.

Chu Jiang smiled in satisfaction. “Give this a little boost. At least don’t let Ge Fei end this topic so easily.”

After drinking the last of his water, Chu Jiang closed his eyes with his fingers upon his lips. He recalled how she had, on the night he sent her back to her residence, smiled like a spring daisy. She was cute and lively.

Seeing that admiring and doting smile on Chu Jiang’s face, Yan Sui shivered slightly. “Mr. Chu, are you rekindling things with your ex?”

Chu Jiang’s smile froze on his lips. He slowly opened his eyes and denied expressionlessly, “What ex? Anyone will do, but definitely not her.”

After a night of trending on Weibo, the result was that Ge Fei got terminated by his management company and various brands endorsed by him.

Things ended badly for Ge Fei, who issued a statement announcing his leaving the entertainment industry.

Because of this matter, Bai Yun’s Weibo fans increased by 50,000 to 60,000. In just one day, her Weibo page transformed from a sea of endless abuse to becoming flooded with apologies.
