Chapter 57 Preparing to Retire
"Well, I plan to retire from the entertainment industry when my contract expires, take a good rest, and go on a trip with my mother. Speaking of which, I feel like I've spent much less time with my mother since I grew up. My mother's health isn't very good either, so I thought I should take advantage of this time to spend more time with my family."
She spoke very softly, but the viewers in the live stream all heard her.
People couldn't help but search it up and learned that Lu Wanxing's contract was indeed expiring in just over two months, which made them feel a little sad.
[Could this be some kind of scheme Lu Wanxing is planning? Trying to gain sympathy by playing the victim won't work!]
[Seriously, you don't think that saying you're retiring from the industry will stop us haters from criticizing you, do you? Think again! We've developed a real connection with you through all this criticism, sob sob~ Nobody understands! Family!]
[According to reliable internal sources, Lu Wanxing doesn't even have an agent now, so she's highly likely to be sidelined by her company, with all her resources being given to others. Her retirement from the entertainment industry is very likely! What a pity for such a beautiful woman!]
[Seriously? Does my ex just let others bully his ex-girlfriend like that? Or does he tacitly approve of it?]
[So, if men were reliable, pigs would fly, even a domineering CEO like Bo Xilai! Sisters, wake up!]
Netizens are starting to share relationship advice again, such as the idea that girls should be independent.
Lin Qiao was shocked by what Lu Wanxing said, but at the same time felt that she could understand it very well.
Regardless of their reasons for wanting to leave the entertainment industry, as a friend, all I can do is support them.
"Can I come visit you if I don't have any other commitments?"
"Of course! My mom is a great cook. You're welcome to come visit us."
Lu Wanxing doesn't actually have many friends in the entertainment industry, so she was quite happy to run into Lin Qiao.
I'll have another friend now, instead of just working all the time like before.
I've become much more bored.
While the two were chatting, Xia Xiyue, as she had previously agreed with Sheng Siwan, lay on the bed and pretended to chat with her intimately.
The topic of conversation was, of course, Bo Sinian.
"Wanwan, I heard that you and President Bo have known each other for a long time?"
Sheng Siwan immediately showed a shy expression.
"Yes, when my mother and I went out before, we happened to run into Grandma Bo and saved her life. After that, our two families started to visit each other."
Xia Xiyue also showed a surprised expression at this moment.
That expression wasn't feigned.
It was genuine surprise.
After all, we only knew that the Sheng family and the Bo family seemed to have some connection, but we didn't know that there was this other story behind it.
However, this seems to make sense, which explains why the Sheng family has started to rise in recent years.
This was probably all thanks to the Bo family's influence, right?
Netizens were also surprised, and they speculated even more that the Bo and Sheng families might form a marriage alliance in the future.
"Wow~ I didn't expect your two families to have such a relationship. No wonder you and President Bo have such a good relationship. I felt that something was going on when you came to participate in the program together."
Xia Xiyue acted as if she didn't know the camera was on, with the same gossipy expression as any ordinary friend.
But that's a bit of a blatant lie.
Bo Sinian has been here for so long, and everyone has witnessed his attitude towards Sheng Siwan.
Saying something like that at this time is somewhat...
However, Sheng Siwan found her words very helpful.
On the surface, she acted shy and coy, but she managed to make it seem like there was something going on between them.
"That's also a coincidence."
Some things don't need to be explained too clearly; it's all up to netizens' imaginations. Plus, considering what she and Bo Sinian had agreed on tonight, she had a strong sense of confidence.
As for how netizens speculate, that's their own business.
The girls' dormitory is now divided into two factions, as for the boys' side...
Shen Weilei, undeterred, was in his room, making the most of every minute to lift weights.
They never miss an opportunity to show off their muscles.
As for Wen Chen, he has a song that he has been revising in another room recently.
The two presidents each got their own room.
They were all busy with work. Li Chengzhou also had a script to work on, and he was reading it after delivering the milk.
Everyone seemed to be getting along well.
But when he went to deliver the milk, Bo Sinian was in the living room and watched him deliver the milk to Lu Wanxing's room.
Fortunately, Li Chengzhou didn't stay up there for too long. After seeing him return to his room, Bo Sinian pretended that nothing had happened, poured himself a glass of water, and went to his room to work.
He didn't know why he was so bothered by Li Chengzhou's contact with Lu Wanxing; whenever the two of them were together, it felt particularly irritating.
If I had to give a reason, it would be that I couldn't stand seeing Lu Wanxing seamlessly transition into her new role.
He couldn't possibly have fallen for Lu Wanxing.
The next day was already the sixth day of the program.
At breakfast, everyone sat down at the long table in the garden.
But Sheng Siwan was clearly different today. When everyone got up to take their seats, Lu Wanxing sat at the very edge, and she deliberately asked Li Chengzhou to sit next to Lu Wanxing.
He then pulled Bo Sinian, who wanted to sit down, and sat down next to him.
It's unclear what they were saying through their eye contact during this time.
Han Xiulin sat next to Li Chengzhou.
Lin Qiao was sitting next to him.
The other people sat opposite.
It's just a meal; anyone could sit anywhere. But the way she arranged it makes it seem like everyone is in a couple.
Especially Lu Wanxing and Li Chengzhou on the other side. Li Chengzhou was taking care of her the whole time, while Bo Sinian on the other side also started helping Sheng Siwan carry things.
One of them had a smile on his face, while the other looked like someone owed him five million.
Reluctantly, but for Sheng Siwan, this was a great breakthrough.
She thanked Bo Sinian with feigned shyness, then glanced at the person opposite her with a cryptic look.
Lu Wanxing didn't even glance at them, continuing to eat her breakfast.
There are plenty of men out there. It's perfectly normal for Bo Si to find another girlfriend after forty years. If they break up normally, then no one will hold anyone back.
"Eat an egg to replenish your nutrition."
Li Chengzhou's voice interrupted her thoughts. Looking at the peeled hard-boiled egg in front of her, Lu Wanxing pouted.
As a result, Bo Sinian on the other side saw it and, for some inexplicable reason, blurted out those words:
"She doesn't like to eat eggs."
Upon hearing this, everyone present, whether eating or preparing to eat, fell silent.
Lu Wanxing looked up at him with an expression that said, "You're absolutely right."
He took a bite out of the egg he didn't like before, and even ate the yolk, which he disliked the most.
She gave Bo Sinian a slight smile.
"Is Mr. Bo mistaken?"
After saying that, he continued eating, but his expression showed he was in great pain.
"Okay, eat slowly. You can skip the yolk if you don't want it."
Seeing that she was having a hard time eating, Li Chengzhou couldn't bear it and gently comforted her.
