Chapter 13 Slip of the Hand

That night, Yan Sui went to bed early.

It was sunny in the morning, but it started snowing in the evening.

She even moved the strawberries from the rooftop into the attic.

Jiang Yeling called her again, her anger practically overflowing from the screen.

"Yan Mo is like a 1982 Longjing tea! She actually liked that family's post, and her fans are even trying to cover it up by saying it was a slip of the hand. If it was a slip of the hand, why didn't you just cancel it!"

Yan Mo's actions directly sent Yan Sui's scandals trending on social media.

She simply felt the hype wasn't big enough and wanted to add fuel to the fire.

After scolding Yan Mo, Jiang Yeling turned her attention to Yan Sen.

"He's a jerk too! He's not famous, but he loves to piggyback on others' fame."

Yan Sui yawned lazily, when suddenly Yan Junming barged in.

"Sis! Those cherry tomato plants have actually sprouted! But it's snowing outside, won't they freeze to death?"

Yan Sui rolled her eyes. "You're making a fuss over nothing. One night won't matter. Tomorrow, we'll dig them up, plant them in flowerpots, and move them to my rooftop."

It's more convenient for her to take care of him on the rooftop.

Only after kicking Yan Junming out could Yan Sui appease Jiang Yeling.

"Stop reading those pointless things online, they'll ruin your mood. You're starting filming the day after tomorrow, don't let yourself get carried away and start arguing with Yan Mo again."

Jiang Yeling: "I just couldn't help it."

Her skin wasn't in good condition to begin with, and these past few days, because of Yan Sui, she'd gotten so angry that she broke out in a few pimples and even had bags under her eyes.

Yan Sui smiled and said, "Go to sleep early. Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy."

Jiang Yeling wailed, "I easily suffer from insomnia when I'm agitated."

"Honey, I'll bring you some cherry tomatoes I grew in a while. I guarantee you'll eat well and sleep well."

Jiang Yeling was speechless at her carefree attitude, "Are the cherry tomatoes you planted sleeping pills or something?"

Yan Sui: "It's even more effective than sleeping pills."

Jiang Yeling didn't take it to heart, but after chatting with Yan Sui for a while, she did feel much better.

At the same time, news of Yan Mo liking Yan Sui's negative posts also reached Fu Qingci's ears.

He's been extremely irritable these past few days and can't seem to focus on anything.

He didn't say it, but he knew in his heart that it was all for Yan Sui.

Even though he didn't want to admit it, his feelings kept reminding him.

Yan Sui left, and he always felt like a piece of his heart was missing.

Why are you bothering with her business for no reason?

Yan Mo pursed her lips. "Brother Qingci, I've seen how you've been these past two days. If you really can't bear to part with her, then please call her back. I'll talk to the company and get us unlinked so we don't get in your way."

Although Fu Qingci was annoyed, he understood what was more important.

“I didn’t mean that. Outsiders think we’re just creating a publicity stunt, but don’t you know how I feel about you?”

Yan Mo coldly curled her lips, "It's nothing more than mutual exploitation."

If she hadn't revealed her true identity to Fu Qingci early on, he wouldn't have even agreed to the publicity stunt.

Of course, she was the same.

She did want to get close to Fu Yansheng, but she knew her own limitations; she couldn't possibly be with that man.

Then he turned his gaze to Fu Qingci.

“Brother Qingci, I’m not misunderstanding. Yan Sui has been by your side for so long, it’s normal for you to feel uncomfortable for a while.”

Fu Qingci held her hand, feeling comforted by her understanding.

"I don't even need to say a word; she'll come back to beg me sooner or later."

This time, he wanted to cut off Yan Sui's escape route, crush her self-esteem, and force her to depend on him.

Yan Mo lowered her eyes, concealing the sarcasm in them.

"Besides, I'm not blaming you. I'm just afraid you'll get into trouble and be implicated by Yan Sui."

Fu Qingci didn't look into the Chen family's affairs, but she always felt that the couple was unreliable.

Yan Mo is now tied to him; if something happens to her, it won't benefit him either.

"I just slipped, I won't do it again next time." Yan Mo lowered her eyes and looked gentle and obedient.

Fu Qingci smiled gently and patted her head.

"There's no need to pay attention to her anymore; she doesn't deserve it."

Yan Mo agreed with this statement.

It wasn't easy for her to climb to this position, and then she returned to the Yan family and drove Yan Sui away.

Yan Sui can't even catch up with her now, she really doesn't deserve her attention anymore.

"This is the last time."

I imagine that once this hype dies down, no one will pay attention to Yan Sui anymore.

Her shadow will be completely erased from the entertainment industry.

"Brother Qingci, has Uncle Fu agreed to let you return to the Fu family?"

Everyone in Beijing's social circles knows that after his first wife passed away, Mr. Fu raised his eldest son alone and remained unmarried for nearly twenty years.

At the time, everyone thought that Fu Wenyang, Fu Qingci's biological father, would be the only heir of Changjing.

Unexpectedly, when the old man was forty-five years old, he fell in love with Fu Yansheng's mother, He Xin, at first sight and married her against all odds.

The year after He Xin entered the Fu family, she gave birth to Fu Yansheng.

The old man even skipped over his eldest son and handed the group over directly to Fu Yansheng.

How could Fu Wenyang be willing to accept this?

Unfortunately, he himself was incompetent, and he had two sons. The eldest son was a playboy who not only liked men but also had a wild life in the entertainment circle.

The youngest son is studying medicine and resolutely refuses to get involved in company matters.

My youngest daughter is innocent and carefree, only knowing how to eat and drink. She complains of headaches when asked to read a couple of books.

In contrast, Fu Qingci, the illegitimate son, was a top student who graduated from one of the country's top universities before entering the entertainment industry, with outstanding academic achievements.

He couldn't bear to let such an outstanding son be buried in the entertainment industry.

That's why news circulated within the industry that Fu Wenyang wanted to bring Fu Qingci back to the Fu family for training.

What outsiders don't know is that this suggestion had already been rejected by the old man.

“My dad naturally wants me to go back.”

Yan Mo's eyes flickered slightly. "Is it your mother who disagrees?"

The "aunt" she mentioned was Fu Wenyang's first wife.

Fu Qingci didn't want to say more and shook his head.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. You have to go to the set tomorrow, so get some rest."

Yan Mo smiled gently, "Okay."

The following day, Yan Sui's popularity finally subsided somewhat.

Yan Mo casually scrolled through comments and private messages, and many people condemned her for deliberately stirring up trouble, kicking Yan Sui while she was down, and taking advantage of her misfortune.

But these comments were quickly met with backlash from her fans.

Her fans are known for their fierce fighting spirit.

Today is the opening ceremony, so I can't be late.

Upon arrival, Yan Mo spotted Jiang Yeling immediately.

The enemy's friend is the enemy. It's no secret that she and Jiang Yeling have been at odds for a long time.

But we still have to put on a show.

"Ling-jie, did you not sleep well? Your dark circles are quite deep."

Jiang Yeling gritted her teeth secretly, and said with a forced smile, "It's alright."

Yan Mo gently stroked her face, "You have to take care of yourself as you get older."

Jiang Yeling snorted coldly and glanced at her: "You're only two years younger than me, how come you won't live to my age?"

Yan Mo frowned slightly, looking at her timidly.

"It seems like Sister Ling has some misunderstanding about me. Did I do something wrong?"

Before Jiang Yeling could speak, she let out a long "Ah".

"Is it because of Yan Sui? If you ask me, Sister Ling, you should stay away from Yan Sui. Birds of a feather flock together, and netizens might misunderstand that you and Yan Sui are the same kind of people."

Jiang Yeling was so angry that she gritted her teeth, and her agent had no choice but to forcibly pull her away.

"Is this the time to argue? Starting a scene at the opening ceremony, are we even going to film this movie?! Think about Yan Sui, don't cause her any trouble!"
