Yu Ting had no interest in what Shen Ruchu and the show crew were discussing. She sat comfortably in her seat, engrossed in a WeChat conversation with Lu Nanchen.
Suddenly she noticed two people approaching from the corner of her eye.
The show crew led Shen Ruchu to her.
A member of the show crew placed a hand on Shen Ruchu’s shoulder and introduced her with a smile, "Hello to our two mentors, this is our new favorite mentor of the show, Shen Ruchu of Southwest Entertainment. Miss Shen."
Shen Ruchu from the side formally responded.
Clap clap.
Zhou Guorui gave applause out of politeness, glanced at Shen Ruchu, and then quickly looked away without any recognition.
Yu Ting followed Zhou Guorui with some symbolic applause. Changing a mentor mid-show was not a small thing, Shen Ruchu must have made considerable efforts behind the scenes. So what was she here for?
Yu Ting thought about this question for a moment with the tip of her toe. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
She guessed that Shen Ruchu was here only to cause her trouble.
With that in mind, Yu Ting, who continued to clap, narrowed her eyes at Shen Ruchu.
Is there nothing better for a CEO to do these days? Why is she here?
Their welcoming applause lasted for a full minute before they finally put their hands down.
A few words were shared by the show crew before they left, leaving the trio in silence.
Not wanting to get too close to Yu Ting, Shen Ruchu sat next to Zhou Guorui, occasionally smiling at passing staff. From the outside, she appeared to be doing her job perfectly.
"You’re working hard."
"Ah, Miss Shen." Responded a surprised staff member on site, "Not at all, not at all."
Shen Ruchu smiled and didn’t reply.
Yu Ting pretended not to hear, impassively playing with her phone.
She was texting Lu Nanchen.
The phrase ’staying home all day is so boring’ was written at the top of Lu Nanchen’s private chat.
Yu Ting sent him a message.
Yu Ting: I’m not bored. I saw your bothersome admirer. She’s here for the show, acting as a mentor like me.
Lu Nanchen: ...Let me know if there’s anything. I’m always on standby.
The response was swift.
Zhou Guorui, who had been sitting next to her, got up to go to the restroom, leaving behind the two women who had been silent throughout the whole process. Yu Ting stared at the message thoughtfully, then thought about Shen Ruchu and planned some mischief.
Yu Ting: I want to hear you say it in voice.
In less than half a minute, Lu Nanchen sent a voice message lasting several tens of seconds.
Yu Ting played it on speakerphone without earphones.
"What’s the difference between saying it in voice or in text? If things happen, just call me. I am always on standby at home."
Then after a few seconds of silence, Lu Nanchen added, "The pants you bought me last time are too small and I can’t wear them. Don’t you know my size?"
The man spoke at a friendly, normal pace, addressing matters factually, completely unaware of any awkwardness in his words.
He thought seriously.
If Yu Ting didn’t know his size, he could write it for her.
People could do anything when idle. Lu Nanchen had nothing to do at home in the morning, so he wore the clothes Yu Ting had bought him, in a new style every day.
Although Yu Ting’s phone volume was not very loud, it was only audible to the two of them. At this moment, Yu Ting’s gaze finally fell on Shen Ruchu, and seeing the latter’s clearly unhappy expression brought her much joy.
Then she quickly tapped a few times on the screen to reply to Lu Nanchen.
Shen Ruchu’s hands, resting on her thighs, unnoticeably tightened.
One fact after another proved: the man she loved and the woman she despised were living very happily.
