Hmm? Could it really not be as the rumors suggest?
The members of "Comet XP" looked at each other, beginning to waver.
"I told you before that pretty lady wasn't that kind of person, but you didn't believe me." Gu Yu was clearly a little happier.
“Exactly, exactly. How could a sister who greets me with such a sweet smile be a bad person?” Qi Yuan said, adding a piece of meat to Gu Yu’s bowl.
With quick eyes and hands, Gu Yu, the younger brother, naturally didn't notice.
They even clinked glasses with Sang Yiming, both holding juice.
After getting her food, Qin Shiyue walked over to them, sat down, and ate with them.
At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on him.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do I look handsome today?!" She couldn't hide her excitement as she spoke.
"Oh, no, not at all." Lian Yunxiang was a sarcastic person; he didn't like Qin Shiyue from the first moment he saw her.
"It's really heartbreaking." Qin Shiyue took a sip of soup. "Then why are you all staring at me?"
"Hey, Senior Qin, are you familiar with that pretty Ms. Shen over there?" someone boldly asked directly.
"Of course we're close. We even have each other on WeChat." Although we only added each other because we were filming.
Previously, I was blacklisted.
But Qin Shiyue was shameless, thinking that no one knew.
"Wow, was that news story true or false?"
"What news?"
"So, you mean Teacher Shen used to follow your news? Is that true?"
They had heard about the previous gossip, after all, Shen Shiqing had been criticized for quite a while.
So they wanted to know some inside information, and the dining table instantly became their gossip-loving spot.
They weren't very enthusiastic about rehearsals.
Yes, gossip knows no gender, no social group, and no occasion.
Qin Shiyue's hand, which was picking up food, paused unconsciously. Then she put down her chopsticks and looked up.
"You really want to know?" Qin Shiyue was unsure whether she should answer.
A group of people looked at him with eyes full of eager anticipation.
"Okay, I'll tell you." Qin Shiyue had actually wanted to clarify this for a long time; it had always been a burden on his mind.
"Actually, we were never together, and you... Teacher Shen never pursued me either." Qin Shiyue gritted her teeth. "Actually, I was the one who pursued her."
"She didn't agree." Qin Shiyue forced a smile, trying to ease the awkwardness.
The entire audience was stunned.
Sang Yiming almost spat out the food he had just eaten.
So... the situation has reversed now?
Sang Yiming struggled to swallow the mouthful of rice, feeling quite angry.
Are you out of your mind? Are you alright?
Sang Yiming almost shouted it out, but Si Binghe caught him in time.
Tell him not to act impulsively.
"Don't you think this is turning black into white, Senior Qin? You can't just think of yourself and hurt others when you do things, can you?" Si Binghe pulled Sang Yiming aside, but he spoke up.
"Why didn't you clarify things back then? Why are you only offering hindsight advice now?" Sang Yiming couldn't hold back any longer. "How long did it take for my sister Qing to be slandered and you didn't say a word?"
After hearing what those people had just said, Sang Yiming finally understood why his sister Qing had such a bad reputation.
So that's what happened.
"There was a reason for it at the time." That's how the company handled public relations back then.
However, he did not stop it, so the truth was reversed, and the haters also started to curse Shen Shiqing.
Now that he has spoken about it, he feels relieved, but things seem to be a little different from what he expected.
He really didn't expect these younger people to... directly criticize him like this.
"Just because there's a reason, does that mean it's like this?" Lian Yunxiang also felt indignant for Shen Shiqing. The girl had to bear all the burdens. He didn't know how Qin Shiyue could be so irresponsible.
They couldn't eat anymore, so they left.
The members of "magic" have all left the table, except for the group from "Comet XP".
But everyone's expressions were different.
Qin Shiyue had no idea that her words would lead to this situation, and she couldn't stay any longer.
He got up and left his seat.
The rest of the people chatted at the dining table.
"No way? Senior Qin actually said this himself?"
"So all those rumors were just that? That poor Ms. Shen must have had it pretty bad."
"Yeah, I remember she was getting really badly criticized back then... Now there's been a huge reversal..."
"I can interpret it as wanting something but not getting it, and then..."
"He was still an idol back then, right? If he was dating... then that would really be... a disaster..."
"Anyway, I haven't talked about it, and I don't plan to talk about it in the next few years. How can the fans stand it?"
...
The others were far away and had no idea what was happening here. They were all focused on eating their own meals, getting some rest, and then intensifying their rehearsals.
On Shen Shiqing's side.
All three of them were eating their meal attentively.
At this moment, Xia came over with a plate, greeted them, and sat down next to Qiao Juli.
"How are Shi Xia's preparations going?" Shen Shiqing hadn't seen Shi Xia all morning.
However, this show should be very simple for Shi Xia; it's her job, practically her comfort zone.
"Not bad, mainly because they have a good foundation." Xiao Xiaxia stopped eating and replied.
"Was it enjoyable working with Teacher Lu?"
"I'm not happy." Xiao Xia used her coquettish skills, "I want to be in the same group as Sister Shi."
"Troublesome." Lu Jingchu glanced at her younger sister, who knew exactly how to act cute.
"Tch, making it seem like I want to be in your group. Humph." Xiao Xia immediately bristled.
Their relationship is quite interesting, like a brother and sister in a TV drama.
Shen Shiqing suddenly felt that it would be great if she had an older brother. Even if they bickered and fought every day, she would still be very happy.
Xia didn't get angry with him when she was little; she just focused on eating.
"I just made this dipping sauce, it's really delicious, Sister Shi, do you want to try it? It's super fragrant, really!!!"
"There's cilantro... You should ask Lu Jingchu. I hate cilantro the most."
But seeing the longing in Shi Xia's eyes, Shen Shiqing found it hard to refuse.
After a brief internal struggle, just as I was about to give it a try, a voice rang out.
"You eat it yourself, she doesn't like cilantro."
"Oh, okay then, I guess I'll have to eat it myself." Wait a minute, how do you know so much about this, bro?
Shi Xia cast a suspicious glance at her.
"Sister Shi, eat this, it's delicious."
"She doesn't like to eat this."
"Sister Shi, this one is also good."
She doesn't like eggplant.
"Hmm... should I try this then, sister?"
"She doesn't like onions."
"Are you deliberately trying to sabotage me?!" Xiao Xia was a little angry.
How could her brother possibly know what Shi Jie likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat?
Shen Shiqing and Qiao Juli were amused by the two of them.
Xiao Xia looked at her sister Shi, and Shen Shiqing nodded to her, indicating that she really didn't like eating those things.
No, how would my brother know what Sister Shi doesn't like to eat?
This is a master! I was worried for nothing.
Xia Xiao rolled her eyes at her brother, then lowered her head to eat and stopped talking.
"Sweet and sour pork ribs, your favorite." Lu Jingchu placed the sweet and sour pork ribs that she hadn't touched onto Shen Shiqing's plate.
"Thanks."
Shen Shiqing picked up the rib and took a bite. Suddenly, she felt that it was the best rib she had ever eaten.
It tastes better than ever before.
But how could Lu Jingchu know what she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat?
Shen Shiqing couldn't understand it.
However, Lu Jingchu knew perfectly well what Shen Shiqing was thinking.
He just knew for no reason.
From a distance, the members of "Comet XP" saw the interaction between Shen Shiqing and Lu Jingchu through the window and suddenly understood what was going on.
"Well... I finally understand why Senior Qin Shiyue couldn't win over that Teacher Shen..."
"I understand now..."
"With Actor Lu by my side... who else could I possibly want..."
...
