Chapter 101
Shi Xuanzhu, who was in the restaurant, did not notice the director behind him. His ear felt a little itchy, so he pinched his earlobe and then looked at the woman opposite him intently, as if there was only one person in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Is the restaurant too hot?"
The woman asked with some confusion.
Shi Xuanzhu smiled gently and said, "No, in fact, you have very good taste. I just suddenly realized that I was not only getting along with a close friend, but also with a person of status. Only then did I realize how approachable you were that you actually chatted with a little actor like me for so long."
Shi Xuanzhu's words obviously made the woman opposite him very happy. Everyone likes to hear good words, and a smile appeared on her face.
"If Actor Shi is a minor actor, then there probably aren't many truly great actors in the industry - and I'm not a big shot, I'm just an employee helping the boss find investment."
The two of them were humble to each other for a while, and the topic returned to the right track again.
But as they chatted, Shi Xuanzhu suddenly sighed. The light in the restaurant was soft and warm, shining on Shi Xuanzhu's face, highlighting his gentle temperament and making the slight melancholy on his expression more obvious.
He turned his head slightly and stopped looking at the woman, but showed his profile in front of the woman, appearing a little vulnerable.
"...I wish my partner could be as independent as you." His voice was low and magnetic, but with a hint of bitterness.
"He's not bad, on the contrary he's really good, he'll help me deal with any problems in my career, but sometimes I feel a little tired and want to complain to him but all I get is a scolding."
A gleam of light flashed in Shi Xuanzhu's eyes, but it quickly disappeared, so quickly that the woman wondered if she had seen it wrong.
And Shi Xuanzhu was still talking.
"This makes me feel suffocated sometimes. I know he is doing this for my own good, but..."
Shi Xuanzhu shook his head as if he was about to say something, then looked up at the woman opposite him. His voice was bitter and a little hopeful.
"...Do you also think that I am being too hypocritical?"
The woman looked at Shi Xuanzhu and shook her head subconsciously. A trace of pity flashed in her eyes as she looked at Shi Xuanzhu.
Shi Xuanzhu also chose to press on with his victory. He looked at the woman in front of him and said seriously.
"In fact, chatting with you really gives me an unprecedented feeling. It seems that we don't need too many words to understand each other's thoughts. This feeling of everything being said without words is really fascinating."
Shi Xuanzhu looked at the woman, and the smile returned to his face, as if he was saved.
I have to say, Shi Xuanzhu's combo seems to be really effective.
The woman opposite had begun to develop feelings for Shi Xuanzhu, and she wanted to comfort Shi Xuanzhu.
The woman began to help Shi Xuanzhu analyze the relationship between Shi Xuanzhu and Song Yun, and even comforted Shi Xuanzhu while speaking.
But what the woman who was comforting Shi Xuanzhu didn't know was that Shi Xuanzhu was having his own plans in mind.
This woman was indeed smart, knew a lot, and her conversation was full of wisdom. Chatting with her really made him feel relaxed and happy.
Unfortunately, she was not the kind of person he could take home. Her background and identity were not suitable for him, Shi Xuanzhu, to be his wife. What he needed was someone who could hold up his front in public, not a "soul mate" who could only chat with him in private.
This is the concept that Shi Xuanzhu was taught since he was a child. He strongly agrees with the idea that someone in every family must make sacrifices, but that person definitely cannot be him.
As a son, he has already sacrificed too much. His self-esteem and even his thoughts are controlled by his father, so in his small family, he must be the one in control.
This is also what his father taught him.
Shi Xuanzhu's eyes wandered for a moment, but the next second he held his breath again, looked at the woman opposite, and forced himself to suppress the surging emotions in his heart. He listened to what the woman opposite said, nodded and shook his head from time to time, and said a few words. After giving enough emotional value, he continued to talk about the situation between him and Song Yun.
"I know I should have a good talk with Song Yun, but Song Yun..." He sighed helplessly, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes. He knew that this kind of fragility of a mature man would instantly make people like him.
"I have actually thought of this method, but he is always busy with work now. After taking care of Ye Wangxing's affairs, he starts to worry about his little cousin's problems. He is such a warm-hearted person and pays close attention to his family relatives. This is a good thing. - It's just that we have less and less topics to talk about."
"Sometimes, I even feel like we are two strangers."
When he said this, there was a hint of confusion in his eyes and a hint of genuine distress in his tone, as if he was really suffering from this marriage.
However, he was calm in his heart. Song Yun's busyness was an excuse for him to use. He didn't need to find too many reasons for his behavior. He just needed to make the woman in front of him believe that his marriage was dead in name only.
And the other party was sorry for him.
It doesn’t matter whether this is true or not, as long as the other party believes it. Even if you are tired of spiritual communication with the other party, you can still say that you and Song Yun have reconciled.
——After all, they have no □□ relationship. What does it have to do with him if these people are obsessed with him?
"Sometimes I really envy you," he continued, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes, "You know so much, and chatting with you makes me feel that there is another possibility in life."
When the woman heard Shi Xuanzhu's words, she felt embarrassed for a moment, as if she benefited from his words. Her originally clear eyes suddenly became a little ambiguous.
Just then, the door of the restaurant was pushed open violently, making a friction sound.
Shi Xuanzhu subconsciously looked up, his gaze instantly fixed on the door, where a figure appeared.
——Song Yun, who had just appeared in his topic and had nothing in common with him, was standing at the door of the restaurant!
Shi Xuanzhu couldn't see Song Yun's eyes clearly, but he was sure that Song Yun came here to catch someone cheating!
Thinking of this possibility, Shi Xuanzhu's heart tightened instantly, thinking that this time it might be bad, but after calming down, he felt that there should still be a chance of survival. As long as he said that he was having dinner with friends, Song Yun was not the kind of unreasonable person.
After all, it was just a mental affair. Without substantial evidence, no matter how suspicious Song Yun was, he could only keep these suspicions deep in his heart.
Thinking of this, Shi Xuanzhu put on a normal smile on his face, and even a hint of doubt, just like an ordinary man who saw his partner while eating out.
But before he could be proud for too long, he saw a young man with black hair and black eyes walking in from behind Song Yun. Shi Xuanzhu would naturally recognize his brother-in-law.
His heart suddenly began to tighten again. Song Yun was not something to be feared, but his brother-in-law, to whom even he had to admit defeat in terms of feelings, was definitely not someone to be fooled.
Shi Xuanzhu suddenly stood up in a panic. He had to think of a foolproof plan.
But before he could think of it, Song Yun rushed in front of him. Shi Xuanzhu could only follow the original plan and tell Song Yun that he was just here to have dinner with friends.
——But before he could speak.
“Bang!”
Accompanied by a loud noise, it attracted the attention of everyone in the restaurant.
Shi Xuanzhu turned his face to the side, was stunned for a moment, and then felt a burning pain on his cheek.
He just reacted then and a slap hit him hard in the face.
And this slap was given by Song Yun.
It was Song Yun, who was always gentle and at most had some arguments with him but never dared to hit him, who beat him.
The pain and humiliation were exactly the same as when he was beaten by his father as a child.
However, unlike the submissive boy that he was when he was a child, Shi Xuanzhu now felt that there was a nameless fire burning in his heart.
Even though Shi Xuanzhu knew that Ye Wangxing was present, he could no longer control his temper at this time.
——Besides, sometimes it is important to shout things out first so that others can have a preconceived idea about them.
"Song Yun, are you crazy? I was just having a meal with my friends, why did you come up and slap me?"
Shi Xuanzhu didn't know whether the person he wanted to call was Song Yun, or his father who had never listened to his explanations since he was a child, but he had to say that after calling out, Shi Xuanzhu felt much better.
Especially when Shi Xuanzhu's voice spread throughout the entire restaurant, and everyone was staring at Song Yun, the look in their eyes as if they were looking at a madman gave Shi Xuanzhu a strange sense of pleasure, which he had never experienced since he was a child.
This strange pleasure urged Shi Xuanzhu to say a few more words to Song Yun, and it would be best if he could expose all the things he had done in the past to everyone.
Just when Shi Xuanzhu couldn't hold back anymore and raised his head to say these words...
A few more people appeared behind Ye Wangxing.
Red-haired, golden-haired and two white-haired ones.
He didn't even need to look at their faces, he only needed to look at their height to recognize who those four people were.
Shi Xuanzhu: “…”
No, he violated the law of heaven?
Shi Xuanzhu still couldn't believe what heavenly law he had violated to deserve these four giant Buddhas.
Fortunately, these four did not come forward to beat him together. They just looked at him with strange eyes.
Later, Shi Xuanzhu realized that it was a look of looking at a trophy - equivalent to bringing a gift to a partner when pursuing a partner in nature.
But now Shi Xuanzhu just felt a chill, and his brain did not stop working, and immediately made him put on the most innocent expression with a hint of grievance.
"Brother-in-law, what happened? I just came out to eat with my friends, and you rushed in and slapped me without any reason."
Shi Xuanzhu spoke innocently and showed his most cowardly side, looking like a cowardly brother-in-law who was bullied by his powerful brother-in-law.
However, what Shi Xuanzhu found strange was that Song Yun did not feel embarrassed when he heard what he said. Instead, he became even more angry, just like those irrational first wives Shi Xuanzhu had seen before.
But unlike the furious expression on his face, Song Yun's eyes seemed relatively calm.
——Even with a hint of pity for him?
Shi Xuanzhu felt that the situation was a bit strange. Why did he feel pity?
Is there anything he needs to be pitied for now?
But before Shi Xuanzhu could figure out what went wrong, Song Yun seemed to be blinded by anger and slapped him again.
"You bastard! I've been married to you for seven years, and you've cheated on me mentally more than once. Now that I've finally caught you in the act, you still dare to make excuses!"
Song Yun said with a strong hatred in her tone: "I thought about giving you a chance before, and even went to discuss it with my brother, but what did you give me in return? You brought people here right after the show ended!"
"You said you and I have nothing in common, why don't you say that you have been using the excuse that your family can't leave me to keep me at home, even though my work ability is not bad!"
Shi Xuanzhu covered his face which was slapped again. He was shocked at first and thought that Song Yun might be really crazy to say such words. Then he looked at the woman next to him, as if he wanted her to help explain herself.
——He really thought so in his heart, and wanted this person to help share some of the firepower, but unfortunately this person was not stupid. This situation was obviously a family conflict, and Shi Xuanzhu was the one at fault. At this time, why didn't he run away and just stand there waiting to be beaten?
The lady picked up her bag and ran away without saying a word, not forgetting to politely greet the six people present.
And these people did not blame him, and the brother-in-law even nodded at her, which made the lady instantly reassured. She picked up her bag and strode out, and settled the bill before leaving.
——She was really afraid of being involved with this person again because of a meal, so she thought it would be best to just pay the bill and then delete the person.
However, this lady's escape at the last minute made Shi Xuanzhu once again the target of the six men's concentrated fire.
He really wanted to show weakness again, at least to bring Song Yun and Ye Wangxing back to the negotiating table - but the two did not give him this opportunity.
“…They and I are just friends.”
Song Yun angrily threw a stack of photos onto the dining table. In the photos, he and those so-called friends were acting quite ambiguous.
“These are just borrowed positions!”
Shi Xuanzhu couldn't help but shout after seeing the photo.
——Then he saw Ye Wangxing’s assistant put a laptop directly on the dining table.
What is played on the computer screen is a small looping video of the movements that are just borrowed.
Make sure the cause, process, and result are clearly marked, so that anyone with eyes can tell whether it is a borrowed position or a truly ambiguous relationship.
Cold sweat broke out on Shi Xuanzhu's forehead. While he was thinking about how to break the impasse, he felt that something seemed to be wrong with Song Yun and Ye Wangxing.
——Ye Wangxing and Song Yun were a little too anxious today.
Whether it was just throwing evidence or catching the adulterer, their attitude was too eager. They didn't even give him a chance to go outside and talk, so now everyone in the restaurant was looking at them.
This is absolutely abnormal. Song Yun and Ye Wangxing are both normal people. They will consider the impact of such things being exposed. Those netizens are not forgiving and will definitely point fingers at them.
But they seemed to have overlooked this point out of anger and only focused on blaming him.
Just when Shi Xuanzhu was confused, Song Yun's voice sounded again.
"I don't care if you're using a trick or something, I can see clearly whether you're mentally cheating or not."
Just as Shi Xuanzhu wondered, although Song Yun's voice was neither hurried nor slow, Shi Xuanzhu felt that his words carried a hint of anxiety.
Shi Xuanzhu felt that he was only a thin layer of window paper away from the truth, but Song Yun's words made him immediately lose his mind.
"Let's get divorced, Shi Xuanzhu."
After Song Yun finished speaking, she was about to leave, but Shi Xuanzhu grabbed Song Yun's hand and wanted to ask her why she said that.
He didn't cheat physically, he was just chatting with those people. Why couldn't Song Yun understand that he was under so much mental pressure?
——But the next second he was lifted into the air like a chicken.
Shi Xuanzhu turned his head angrily.
A bodyguard who was like a wall was carrying his clothes easily.
Seeing him looking at him, the bodyguard smiled at him friendly.
Then put him back in his place.
Shi Xuanzhu returned to his original position: ...
When the title #施轩竹被面掴# became a hot search, netizens who were still immersed in the previous incident with the tall man did not even react to what had happened and thought it was a promotional tactic for a new drama.
The identity of this tall and mysterious man has not been determined yet. Although many people think that this is Ye Wangxing’s deceased husband, both the official and Ye Wangxing, and their company groups are pretending to be dead.
——Until someone clicked on the trending search and reposted the video posted by the marketing account.
The image quality was extremely clear throughout, including the bloodshot on Shi Xuanzhu's red cheeks after she was slapped twice by her partner.
Naturally, this also included what Shi Xuanzhu had said to the lady before, but fortunately, because the entire process was filmed from a candid perspective, only the part below the lady's neck could be seen.
But Shi Xuanzhu's words were heard by everyone.
Including how he told the lady that there were problems in his marriage with Song Yun and his current distress.
Netizens originally wondered how Shi Xuanzhu could possibly do such a thing, considering his previous image in the entertainment industry was quite perfect, and it was even supported by actual evidence.
But after seeing this video, netizens immediately exclaimed how could this man be so shameless, so much so that when Song Yun slapped Shi Xuanzhu in the face, she directly received a barrage of praise.
The last part where the four people came forward and spoke to Shi Xuanzhu one by one in a rare and friendly manner was watched several times by netizens.
——After all, these four people could actually stand there peacefully and even threaten Shi Xuanzhu. It was definitely a very precious scene.
Although for Shi Xuanzhu, he would rather not have this cherishment.
But he had no say in that.
"...So the two white-haired ones are responsible for providing evidence, the red-haired one is responsible for providing bodyguards, and the golden-haired one is responsible for providing lawyers? Isn't this a bit of an overreaction for a divorce case?"
"Although my country has its own national conditions, if this lineup fails the first trial... this is really a national condition, not a legal issue as some professionals say."
"Don't you want the call? Forget it, let's talk about something safer - like how long can Actor Shi last!"
Immediately, netizens began to make quite unethical analyses, wondering how long Shi Xuanzhu could last now.
"About a month. After all, he is an award-winning actor, and he has not been involved in money laundering or shady contracts. If there are no problems with taxes, his personal style will not have much impact on him..."
"I think it should only be half a month. As long as all the dramas he has are stopped, then it will be the end, right?"
"But I feel like they are going to go through legal procedures. They will probably just focus on entertainment."
At this time, someone said something very pointed.
"I think it all depends on when Actor Shi will have overseas work."
Recalling that Song Yun’s brother is a widow, and most of Mr. Widow’s lovers grew up in free countries and are powerful in the local area, netizens said: …
Oh yes!
The comment instantly received thousands of likes, and exceeded 10,000 after 10 minutes.
However, as more and more people joined, various comments emerged.
Some people couldn't believe what Song Yun's life experience and academic qualifications had been sorted out.
"Is Shi Xuanzhu out of his mind? Song Yun is a top student who graduated from a prestigious university. He is not satisfied with being a househusband for him?"
"Song Yun graduated from a prestigious university and gave up her career for her family, but Shi Xuanzhu cheated on her? What kind of ungrateful person is this?"
"With Song Yun's conditions, anyone would be better than Shi Xuanzhu, right? What's he looking for?"
"How can a home-grown flower smell as good as a wild one... And this guy is really cunning. He is just mentally cheating. It's hard to find evidence to prove it."
"However, no matter how hard it was to find the evidence, Mr. Widow finally found it."
Some people began to ask Shi Xuanzhu not to go abroad.
"It's so funny, Shi Xuanzhu, you're done. Don't go abroad in your life, or you will definitely be 'arranged'."
"Shi Xuanzhu should be thankful for the laws of the country."
Some marketing accounts have started to copy netizens’ comments.
"Shi Xuanzhu: I'm just chatting. Netizen: You're just looking for death."
"Shi Xuanzhu: I was just mentally cheating. Mr. Widow: I was just physically transcending."
However, just as netizens were discussing the issue, the discussion of the previous post about the tall man was also declining.
Even when netizens woke up the next morning, they found that all the previous posts about the man had disappeared. Even some accounts that had solid evidence and posted data and comparison pictures to verify the relationship between the two were bombarded.
As we all know, today's netizens are very fickle. Except when it comes to matters of principle, if you don't let me eat this melon, I will insist on eating it, and we will even dig very deep to eat it!
Then……
Netizens dug up an incredible thing.
They looked at the man in the black and white photo on the Gore family's official website, and then looked at the tall man who appeared on the variety show, with the same facial features except for some scars on his cheeks.
"——No, how can someone survive being hit by a dump truck?!!"
Just as netizens were making sharp explosions, Yijiu, the person hit by the dump truck, was feeling a little distressed.
His host was discussing with him what would happen after the world mission was completed.
The host's tone was no different from before, and his expression was normal.
but……
Yijiu looked at the alarm that was flashing red light madly, and the host sitting on the sofa three body lengths away from him, and fell into deep thought.
Soon Yijiu came up with the answer.
"Host, are you planning to change the system?"
Ye Wangxing, who was trying hard to restrain himself from taking advantage of the situation:?
Ye Wangxing reacted: !!!!!!
