Chapter 18 Chapter 18 "I've figured it out. I'm going to go and talk to that guy...

"How about suppressing the news?" Tang Ya looked at Jiang Yiyu, who was curled up on the sofa with some concern.

After the live broadcast camera on the Internet took in the background noise of the first reporter's question, in order to avoid accidents, it had the foresight to immediately move the camera away and mute the sound.

But there were so many media cameras present, and even if there was no live broadcast, what happened on the scene would spread out in no time.

It was a media friend who knew Jiang Yiyu. As soon as Cheng Shuze finished the interview, he immediately started calling her frantically, reminding her that something had happened during the Chamber of Commerce interview, and asked her to seize the time and suppress the news before it was widely exposed, so as to minimize the impact.

Within five minutes, Jiang Yiyun's phone was flooded with messages from all sorts of people. Some were contacting her to inquire about the divorce rumors, some were asking if she would be interviewed, and some people who had received the latest news sent three shocked question marks to ask what was going on.

The phone was stuck because too many messages came in at once. Jiang Yiyu was originally trying to book a table at TA's bar, but had to exit. The last message popped up before turning off the phone. It was from Ling Jingzhi.

【Ling Jingzhi: I'll handle it.】

The cell phone completely stopped working. Jiang Yiyu threw her own phone away and asked Tang Ya to take hers.

More than half an hour had passed since the interview. Jiang Yiyu was busy booking a table at the bar and didn't care that Cheng Shuze had revealed his divorce during the interview. No one knew what Cheng Shuze was thinking and it seemed that he hadn't dealt with it. The media reporters at the scene had already posted the content of the interview online, which caused a complete storm.

Tang Ya was holding her computer and checking the messages. She couldn't read as fast as the messages were refreshing, so she had to keep skipping to see the latest content.

The online news was actually not that bad. Although the news of the Cheng and Jiang families' divorce was also a sensation, it was essentially different from the gossip about celebrities. The hostility from all sides was much smaller. Most of the netizens were just obsessed with the real-life CP because the live broadcast of the Chamber of Commerce revealed the love story of Cheng Shuze and Jiang Yiyun. Netizens who had not yet swallowed the sweetness in their mouths were publicly shocked. They were running back and forth between the two adjacent posts [Come and eat the real rich couple, the most complete Cheng Shuze x Jiang Yiyun years full of sweet details] and [Big news! Cheng Shuze actually said it was a family marriage and officially announced the divorce], with one mouthful of sweetness and the other sharp, tears streaming down their faces.

[I don't believe it... Tell me this is just a little trick played by a couple after a fight]

[Why! I just watched the wedding VCR next door. The behind-the-scenes clip of Sister Jiang in her wedding dress trying to walk forward and Mr. Cheng in a suit automatically walking behind her and holding up her skirt is killing me. They're so skilled, you can tell they do it often. And he's laughing so happily. You're calling this a business marriage?!]

[And that ring, when Cheng Shao said he was just buying it, the look in his eyes when he looked up at Sister Jiang was so sweet, who knows...]

"Mr. Cheng, do you believe what you said about a business marriage? Come out and respond!"

[To be honest, Cheng Shuze's face is quite playful in private, and he might be involved with both men and women. Don't be too convinced by the hype of some affectionate characters. My friend is an insider, and he said it himself.]

[? The above person is farting. Brother Cheng is widely recognized in the industry for his unfazed and unwavering composure, even when faced with a woman's affection. He was once suspected of being frigid. Which friend of yours is this? Tell me. If you continue to spread rumors, I'll rip your mouth off.]

[Ah...Isn't it true that the divorce was due to sexual apathy?]

[Ah, the handsome guy is actually frigid? No wonder Sister Jiang wants a divorce. Even if he's handsome, it's not okay if his sex life isn't harmonious. Sister Jiang can just keep a few handsome guys, which is pretty good too. So let's get a divorce.]

【??? I didn't say Cheng Ge was asexual!!! I said it was just everyone's suspicion! I was just refuting the rumor above. How could Cheng Ge be asexual? Ahhh, please stop posting this. If anyone sees it, I'll die.】

The posts soon piled up layer upon layer, and Tang Ya closed the computer with a detached look on her face.

"What are people saying online now?" Jiang Yiyu was curious when she saw Tang Ya staring at the comments online.

"Nothing, I'm just guessing the reason for your divorce."

Jiang Yiyun was in a good mood: "Guess what?"

Tang Ya glanced at her and repeated the online comments to her.

"I guess Cheng Shuze is asexual. You broke up because of the disharmony in your sex life, and he even asked you to support a gigolo."

Jiang Yiyu couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Are you really okay? You're still in the mood to go to the bar after such a big fuss." Jiang Yiyu's behavior was too normal. It seemed that Cheng Shuze's unilateral announcement of divorce without any prior discussion, which directly blocked all room for redemption, had no effect on her at all.

"I thought about it when I got divorced. It would be public sooner or later. I was mentally prepared for it."

"But didn't you say before that you were waiting for Cheng Shuze to get back together with you?"

"Oh, it's a different time now. Call someone. I'll treat you today." Jiang Yiyun said generously, "Let's go talk to the handsome guy about life and have a heart-to-heart talk."

The bar is filled with loud drum beats and noisy crowds, while men and women shuttle between the confusing and ambiguous light and shadow. Every indulgent touch hidden in the sound of alcohol and music carries a hint of fiery mystery.

Jiang Yiyu grabbed Tang Ya, changed her clothes, and went out. She went to TA Bar, booked a private room on the second floor, went downstairs, wandered around the dance floor, and then disappeared.

Tang Ya originally wanted to closely observe Jiang Yiyu's mental state, but was dispersed by the crowd in the bar. She only realized it belatedly after dancing for two songs.

After blowing a kiss to the handsome guy she had just chatted with, Tang Ya struggled across the center of the dance floor and went up the stairs to the second floor in high heels. She held the railing to look for someone, and after searching for a long time in the changing lights, she finally found Jiang Yiyu at the bar.

Jiang Yiyu was wearing a tight black suspender skirt, her earrings reflected tiny sparkles, her waist-length black curly hair was loose, the skin on her exposed arms was surprisingly fair and delicate, her long eyeliner was raised, and she supported her forehead with one hand, sitting lazily at the bar like a beautiful Persian cat.

I had only been sitting there for a while when the man who came to chat me up never stopped.

The boy sitting opposite her now had short, slightly messy hair and shining amber eyes. He looked young and full of youth, with a simple and gullible look on his handsome face.

"Sister, are you unhappy today?" The little boy is very sweet-mouthed and easily blushes when teased.

Jiang Yiyun deliberately dragged out her tone: "Do I look very old? You call me sister right away?"

"No, no, it's just that my sister is too beautiful, I..." The little boy waved his hands incoherently.

"Can you drink?" Jiang Yiyu snapped her fingers, called the waiter to open a new bottle of Glenfiddich, and poured a small amount into the boy's wide-mouthed glass.

The boy took the glass and drank it in one gulp, choking and coughing. Jiang Yiyun was amused and took a tissue to wipe his mouth.

Tang Ya sighed as she watched from the railing. As long as Jiang Yiyun was willing, there was no man she couldn't win. Even a frivolous young master like Cheng Shuze was willing to marry and abide by the family rules set by Jiang Yiyun. Although they were divorced now, even 18 or 19-year-old male college students were willing to fall at Jiang Yiyun's feet.

Seeing Jiang Yiyun listening to the boy's talk with a smile on her face, and occasionally making him blush with a word, Tang Ya straightened her long hair that had been messed up while dancing and sighed. If she didn't show up and waited for Jiang Yiyun to really fall in love with her and win her over, she couldn't imagine how Cheng Shao would react.

"Sister, do you want to go for a ride outside?" The boy finally tried to put his hand on Jiang Yiyu's left wrist that was resting on the bar. The boy's palm was warm, blowing away the cold air in the bar.

"Today?" Jiang Yiyu curled her lips, leaving a bright red lip print on the edge of the wine glass. The ice cubes in the glass collided with each other, making a crisp sound. "Not today. My sister just got divorced today. If her ex-husband comes to the door later..."

Jiang Yiyun pulled her hand out, and her fingertips brushed across the boy's palm like a feather, then hooked her finger. The boy moved closer to her, and Jiang Yiyun whispered teasingly in his ear, "Then you're in trouble."

"He sounds like a very rude person." The boy also laughed, "Sister, can you give me your phone number? You can find me if you have time."

"Sure." Jiang Yiyun asked the waiter for a marker and waved it in front of the boy's eyes. "Is it okay that I didn't bring my phone?"

"Of course not." The boy pulled up the sleeve of his left hand, revealing his firm muscles.

"I thought you would just let me sign on my abdominal muscles." Jiang Yiyu wrote a string of numbers on his arm in a flamboyant manner. She glanced at Tang Ya who walked over with a speechless expression and raised her eyebrows at her.

"Sister, do you want to see your abs?" The boy smiled smugly. "Next time, you can watch as long as you want."

After leaving her phone number, another beautiful girl walked up to the beautiful girl and put her arm around her shoulder. It was obvious that she was a friend. The boy was tactful and said hello before leaving.

"You're really good! You didn't even know if the little brother was an adult yet you took action." Tang Ya sat down in the boy's seat without any hesitation.

Jiang Yiyun took a new glass and poured her some wine: "Is it handsome?"

Tang Ya took a sip of her wine and said affirmatively, "Very handsome." Seeing Jiang Yiyun sitting lazily and looking a little drunk, she couldn't help but poke her: "How much did you drink?"

"There are a total of…" Jiang Yiyun felt her thoughts were scattered and she was too lazy to count. "About eight or nine?"

Everyone bought her a drink, or mixed different kinds of foreign liquor. Even if she only drank a little, she couldn't stand it.

"Okay, okay, let's go home." Tang Ya tried to pull Jiang Yiyu, who was a little drunk, but was rejected.

"I'm not going back. I'm going to stay here all night." After saying that, Jiang Yiyu picked up a whole bottle of whiskey at hand and drank directly into the bottle.

"Fuck," Tang Ya was shocked and quickly reached for the bottle. "I'm going to die! You don't drink, but you dare to face the bottle? Are you trying to kill yourself?"

"Why do you care about me? I'm single now. I can have fun however I want. Cheng Shuze can't control me."

"Okay, okay, you can have fun, but don't risk your life drinking. Let's go back to the private room."

Tang Ya dragged the somewhat dazed Jiang Yiyu back to the private room on the second floor. As soon as she closed the door, Jiang Yiyu fell into the sofa and covered her face. After a while, faint crying sounds came from the private room.

Tang Ya sighed, hugged Jiang Yiyu, and let her lie on her shoulder.

Jiang Yiyu sobbed and cried, and after hearing the countless times she had said at home about Cheng Shuze being a scumbag, it took a long time for her to calm down.

"I've figured it out," Jiang Yiyun raised her face. Her makeup was smudged, but her eyes, soaked with tears, were surprisingly bright. "I'm going to get a room with that boy from before."
