Chapter 34 Do you still want a divorce?
Chao Xian looked at himself in the mirror, his face still covered in cream.
He reached out and wiped the cream off, and couldn't help but find it funny.
Just as he reached out his hand, Chao Xian noticed a reddish tinge on his right wrist.
It's a small red mole.
But it clearly wasn't there before.
Chao Xian frowned and examined the red mole closely.
This body's distinguishing feature is the beauty mark under the eye.
Even the mole on his wrist was exactly the same as the one he had before he transmigrated into the book.
Chao Xian seemed to have a few answers in mind, but in the end, he still couldn't confirm his own thoughts.
Chao Xian enjoyed being fed by Mu Ziyan at home for several days.
Chao Xian, who had lost a lot of weight while filming, has successfully returned to her pre-filming weight.
The aunt's cooking tastes similar to Chao Xian's, and Chao Xian would occasionally tell the aunt how to season it.
Auntie can make it taste almost the same as Chao Xian.
Chao Xian likes to cook almost all of the dishes she likes.
The auntie also understands that at home, the dishes are mostly made according to Chaoxian's taste, so often, if there are any recipes that are not accurate, the auntie will have Chaoxian take a look.
"Three parts sugar." The milk tea Mu Ziyan brought back today was different from the usual sugar-free one.
Chao Xian was watching TV when she saw the milk tea in front of her and asked softly, "Shouldn't you have brought me sugar-free?"
I was just getting to an exciting part of the TV series "Chao Xian" when the milk tea arrived at the perfect time.
"The internet says this one with 30% sugar is the best." Mu Ziyan placed the milk tea in front of Chao Xian, put down her schoolbag, and sat down next to him to wait for them to have a meal together.
Chao Xian took a sip of milk tea, and her eyes lit up.
"Indeed excellent."
Chao Xian received a message from Su Ge on his phone.
The above contains information related to variety shows.
Taking advantage of Chao Xian's current popularity, appearing on variety shows is the best way to gain more attention.
"After you finish the grade skipping exam, will you still need to go to school?"
Chao Xian asked Mu Ziyan, who was beside him, with some doubt.
Mu Ziyan's grade skipping exam is tomorrow. Judging from Mu Ziyan's calm and unhurried demeanor, she seems to be confident in herself.
Upon hearing Chao Xian's question, Mu Ziyan thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to go to school."
"That's perfect. I'll be participating in a variety show in a couple of days and I need an assistant. Why don't you come with me?"
He was just a guest on that variety show, making a brief appearance.
Chao Xian took Mu Ziyan out for a stroll.
“You should travel more when you’re young,” Chao Xian said confidently.
When Mu Ziyan heard this, she felt helpless. She always felt that Chao Xian only asked her to accompany him because he didn't have a suitable assistant.
But Mu Ziyan did not refuse.
Anyway, staying at home alone is boring, so I might as well go out with Chaoxian.
This variety show is a three-day, two-night travel variety show.
They went to an ancient town in Jiangnan. Su Ge picked up Chao Xian and noticed a boy wearing a mask next to Chao Xian, who was also wearing a mask. Su Ge was a little puzzled.
"Is this the assistant you found? He looks way too young. Is he a child laborer?"
Upon hearing Su Ge's doubts, Chao Xian couldn't help but smile: "It is child labor, but I used legal methods."
Mu Ziyan didn't say anything, but pushed Chao Xian and her own suitcase, with a bag on her back.
Compared to Chao Xian, who was holding a milk tea next to him, it was many times more arduous.
"President Mu's son?" This was the only person Su Ge could think of.
Shouldn't Mr. Ke's son be in school right now?
How did Chao Xian manage to lure him out like this?
Su Ge felt like he had brought his two little devils with him on his trip out.
If both of these little devils were to lash out at the same time, then I'd be in real trouble...
Su Ge looked at Chao Xian's innocent gaze, and then glanced at Mu Ziyan, who was obediently looking for Chao Xian's documents.
silence.
Well, at most it'll be two people serving one ancestor.
Chao Xian waved the milk tea in his hand and said directly, "Shall we go?"
Su Ge could only hold back and first explain the situation to Chao Xian: "There is also an ordinary person who is also a guest on the trip with you, but I don't know his identity yet. If you meet him later, please be a little more polite."
Suger simply prompted him to speak.
After all, they'll be appearing on a show together later.
It's always better to make a friend than an enemy.
Chao Xian noted this down.
Su Ge then turned to look at Mu Ziyan beside him and asked Chao Xian in a low voice, "Young Master Mu's hotel hasn't been booked yet. I don't know if it's still possible to book a room now. I'll call the hotel to ask first."
Suger was somewhat unsure.
The plane ticket was bought by Chao Xian, and it was near Chao Xian's own seat.
As for the hotel, it was provided by the production team. As the assistant and agent, they could share a room, so Su Ge did not refuse at the time.
But now Su Ge never expected that his assistant would actually be the young master of the Mu family!
Who would dare to share a small room with the young master of the Mu family?
Unfortunately, Suger could only arrange for hotel rooms.
After receiving a reply from the other side, Su Ge then asked Chao Xian: "We can only upgrade to a suite. All the other rooms in the hotel have been booked by the staff and there are no rooms available."
Su Ge thought of something and quickly said, "However, there are two rooms in the suite. I originally wanted to book the suite, but the hotel said they could only upgrade. The film crew happened to be short one room and asked if we could upgrade to a suite so that two people could stay."
Chao Xian didn't mind and nodded in agreement.
Suger immediately negotiated with the hotel.
Suger said that there was an ordinary person on the same flight as them, but Chao Xian couldn't recognize who it was.
Mu Ziyan did her best to take out Chao Xian's eye mask and other items.
He handed it to Chao Xian.
"Go to sleep, I'll wake you up when it's time."
Mu Ziyan spoke up considerately.
Looking at Mu Ziyan's appearance, Chao Xian took the eye mask and blanket: "I have another eye mask and blanket in my bag. Take them if you want to sleep."
Mu Ziyan simply nodded obediently.
He watched as Chao Xian fell asleep.
Before the plane took off, I sent a message to Mu Yunzhou.
Chao Xian woke up once in the middle of the day. Mu Ziyan was talking to the flight attendant, but Mu Ziyan's tone seemed a little too nervous.
Fortunately, the flight attendant understood that Mu Ziyan didn't seem to need her to ask any more questions, and left quickly.
Chao Xian heard Mu Ziyan beside him exhale softly and couldn't help but smile.
Mu Ziyan is better suited to going out and meeting more people.
At home, the only people she is familiar with are Chao Xian and Mu Yunzhou. She is not familiar enough with her aunt, Mu Ziyan. Mu Ziyan only talks to her about what she wants to eat.
Bringing Mu Ziyan out here serves two purposes: first, to allow Mu Ziyan to travel more, and second, to encourage her to communicate and interact with more people.
At least when there are no other people around, one can easily communicate with outsiders.
When they got off the plane, Chao Xian specifically asked Mu Ziyan if there was anything she was having trouble adjusting to.
Mu Ziyan put away the eye mask and blanket, thought for a moment, and shook her head.
Everything is fine.
Mu Ziyan followed behind Chao Xian, wearing a mask and busy doing this and that, looking just like an assistant.
Chao Xian couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.
However, Su Ge was a little worried: "How about I find you a new assistant for now? You can't keep having Young Master Mu following you around, can you? After all, recording a show is very tiring."
Hearing Su Ge's words, Chao Xian shook his head: "It's okay, he can do it."
Chao Xian didn't say anything in detail, but Su Ge saw the smile on Chao Xian's face, as if he was very satisfied with Mu Ziyan now.
He couldn't help but dismiss his own idea.
Su Ge quickly contacted the production crew and confirmed the location of their car. Su Ge then took Chao Xian and Mu Ziyan there.
Originally, Su Ge wanted to take Chao Xian's suitcase from Mu Ziyan, since Chao Xian's suitcase was quite large and looked rather heavy.
Mu Ziyan is the son of my boss, so I can't really let my boss's son carry the suitcase the whole time, can I?
But Mu Ziyan rejected him with great disdain.
She even seemed to think Su Ge was unreliable, standing next to Chao Xian without giving Su Ge a single glance.
But Suger couldn't say a single harsh word to him.
Thinking about what Chao Xian had said before.
That's fine, I'll just treat Mu Ziyan as an ordinary assistant.
The production crew rushed forward to greet her and reached out to take the suitcase from Mu Ziyan's hands, but Mu Ziyan waved her hand and then put the suitcase in the car by herself.
“This is Chao Xian’s assistant, you can call him…” Su Ge suddenly stopped.
Chao Xian, standing nearby, chuckled and added, "Just call him Xiao Yan."
The staff member nodded immediately, then noticed the other person and quickly said, "Now that both teachers have arrived, let's set off right away!"
The staff member's voice was full of excitement.
Chao Xian noticed the in-car camera and saw the staff telling Su Ge and Mu Ziyan to get into another car. Chao Xian realized that the recording should start now.
Mu Ziyan glanced at Chao Xian, receiving a reassuring look, before following Su Ge.
Chao Xian touched the mask on his face, then turned to look at another ordinary person and nodded slightly to him.
But the person seemed not to see him and was still communicating with the staff.
This ordinary person looks very unique. He is wearing headphones, and most of his face is covered by a black mask. He is wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt and looks taller than Chao Xian.
Chao Xian glanced at it briefly before looking away, and quickly got into the car after the staff finished their work.
The ordinary person saw that Chao Xian had already gotten into the car, glanced at the seat next to Chao Xian, and then glanced at the back.
He went straight up and sat in a seat at the back, some distance from Chao Xian.
The staff members who witnessed this scene were terrified.
Chao Xian probably hasn't met this stranger before, right?
Or perhaps this ordinary person simply doesn't like the leisure of court life?
After all, Chao Xian had been trending on social media for a long time not long ago.
The staff member sat in the passenger seat and said softly, "Teachers, let me introduce you first. This is Teacher Chao Xian, and this is Teacher Xu Ming'an."
Chao Xian nodded quickly.
The staff member continued, "The filming method for this episode has been changed. From the moment we boarded the vehicle, we were already in a live broadcast state, which was mentioned in the contract."
The staff member spoke cautiously, knowing that Xu Ming'an should know this, but Chao Xian was completely unaware.
Chao Xian didn't mind.
Instead, he nodded, signaling the staff member to continue speaking.
"In that case, welcome to our variety show 'The Scenery in My Heart'. This is the first task card given by the production team. Please keep it safe."
Chao Xian reached out and took it, glanced at Xu Ming'an behind him, but did not hand it to Xu Ming'an. Instead, he softly read the words on it: "Please go to the ancient town and purchase the items on the list."
The staff handed the list to Chao Xian, who looked at the rolled-up list and took it.
Chao Xian was stunned the moment he opened it.
The long list fell directly from Chao Xian's hands to the ground.
Fortunately, Chao Xian took a look and found that they were all ordinary items that could be bought in a supermarket, so he was relieved.
Then I asked the staff, "There shouldn't be a time limit for this task, right?"
When the staff heard Chao Xian get to the point, they smiled helplessly and said, "Complete the procurement within three hours of arriving at the procurement location."
Chao Xian turned to look at Xu Ming'an and said softly, "Teacher Xu, you can take a look at this list."
Xu Ming'an looked up and met Chao Xian's eyes, then looked away and took the list Chao Xian handed him.
He didn't say a word.
Those watching the live stream commented that Xu Ming'an was very aloof.
However, many people are also bringing up what Chao Xian did on the trending topics before.
Just a few minutes later, many people started saying that Chao Xian was using his background to exchange for resources.
These kinds of comments are obviously from paid trolls.
They went even further, saying that the entertainment industry should boycott Chao Xian.
Fans who have seen Chao Xian act are getting restless.
It's obvious who this is, given how obviously it's a paid troll post.
It's just that actor who said Chao Xian stole his role.
Ke Chaoxian won the role through his own strength.
Moreover, the director only accepted Chao Xian after he was rejected by the director.
How did it get out that Chao Xian stole the role that someone else had already cast?
That's absolutely outrageous.
Fans couldn't help but complain.
"Teacher Chaoxian, the fans in the live stream are all saying they want to see you on screen. The behind-the-scenes footage of you filming before was truly amazing."
The staff quickly reminded them.
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian realized that he hadn't taken off his mask yet.
Chao Xian quickly looked at the surrounding cameras: "Which one is the live streaming camera?"
The staff pointed it out to Chao Xian.
Chao Xian faced the camera and then immediately removed the mask from her face.
There was no unnecessary delay.
He seemed decisive and efficient.
Under the high-definition camera, Chao Xian's face was exposed to the lens, as flawless as white jade.
A pair of gray-blue eyes stared straight at the camera, and slightly long gray-white hair fell around her eyes, somewhat messy, but adding to her refined and lifelike appearance.
It was as if the most exquisite puppet in the shop window had suddenly come to life, and the moment it looked up, people were involuntarily drawn to it, making them feel that everyone's attention should be focused on it.
The staff watched as the data in the backend surged instantly, and even those who were typing experienced a few minutes of lag.
Then the live stream crashed, and the staff member's account was kicked out of the live stream.
The staff were stunned.
Unexpectedly, Chao Xian's mere appearance caused the live stream to crash.
The live stream room is currently inaccessible.
The staff immediately inquired with the program director, only to receive a message that the app's backend was under maintenance and the live stream might have to wait a while to restart.
Despite his miserable fate, the director was very excited.
Chao Xian's mere appearance caused the already reinforced app to crash; imagine what would happen if he appeared on their show.
Their show could be upgraded to stardom with a little tweaking!
The staff member felt a little bitter. He glanced at the beautiful but oblivious Chao Xian behind him and said in a soft voice, "Teacher Chao, the live stream has crashed. Why don't you put your mask on now?"
Chao Xian smiled when he heard this.
Then he obediently put on the mask.
"I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
Chao Xian spoke earnestly.
The staff were stunned, feeling as if their health bars had been emptied instantly!
It was clearly not Chao Xian's fault, but he still apologized to himself. Su Ge is so lucky to have such a well-behaved and beautiful artist!
The staff member quickly turned around and looked ahead, then stood there for a while before realizing that he hadn't replied.
He quickly shook his head: "It's not Teacher Chao's problem, it's that we weren't prepared with the app team."
Xu Ming'an, sitting in the back row with his head down, was looking at his phone. The screen on his phone showed the live stream that had been interrupted and was now completely black. He switched to Weibo in the background, and all the pictures on it were screenshots from the live stream.
The trending search list only had two words: "morning leisure".
Asahi Fan Club: Yes, that's right, our Asahi is just that beautiful!
Chaoxian's Little Dog: No way, what kind of crappy live stream is this? It just crashed? Huh? If the live stream is good, keep it; if not, find someone else. Don't let me see my wife in front of me!
Spending a lifetime with leisure: What do you mean, "your wife"? Have you no shame? That's my wife.
The next March: You're still dreaming and haven't woken up yet.
The app programmers worked overtime to fix it, and finally opened the live stream room before Chao Xian and Xu Ming'an entered the supermarket.
Even though Chao Xian was wearing a mask in the live stream, his fans were still very excited.
The photographer followed behind Chao Xian, who was pushing a shopping cart. Although Chao Xian was covered up completely in a T-shirt, it didn't stop fans from imagining what was going on.
Especially when Chao Xian went to get something, her fingertips rested on the item, while her other hand held the bottom half of the list that she had just torn off in the car, looking like she was carefully selecting something.
The person in the live stream also spoke without any sense of propriety.
Planet One: This has a "I'm just buying things for you" vibe. Give the photographer a bonus! Photographer, you're so talented!
Chaoxian Fan Club: I work to earn money so that I can support Chaochao!
Rainy night today: I go to work to earn money, just to support Chaochao!
The live stream chat was scrolling by very quickly, and the staff couldn't stop smiling as they looked at the comments.
I couldn't help but feel excited.
Chao Xian hurriedly searched for everything on the list.
Chao Xian has a good memory. Although many items on the list are messy, Chao Xian can almost always take everything in the same area once he arrives at it.
Then Chao Xian glanced at Xu Ming'an, who was still searching, and went up to ask Xu Ming'an about the progress.
Xu Ming'an was also fast; he was already halfway there.
Chao Xian then asked him to tear off some more items from the list for himself.
The two worked together to find the last remaining items.
The time should be within three hours.
Xu Ming'an glanced at Chao Xian, and after paying, he picked up all the items.
He didn't let Chao Xian make a move.
The staff around them also reached out and took some.
Before Chao Xian could say anything, he saw that Xu Ming'an had already walked away.
Chao Xian quickly followed.
Upon boarding the bus again, staff reminded Chao Xian that his live stream room had been reopened.
The fans in the live stream started to get excited.
They directly told the staff to score high marks.
Chao Xian took off her mask and carefully put it away. Then she took out her phone and asked the staff for their live stream room number.
Upon clicking, I was instantly drawn in by the rapidly scrolling barrage of comments.
One phrase after another: "Hi, wife."
This left Chao Xian somewhat speechless, both amused and exasperated.
Chao Xian looked up and waved at the camera: "Hello everyone, I'm Chao Xian."
The live stream chat in my hand disappeared completely.
Chao Xian's smile froze, and she looked at the staff member somewhat at a loss.
Is this a card?
The staff glanced at it, and the comments reappeared, even faster than before.
"It's not stuck."
Chao Xian's fan club: I wasn't stuck, I was stuck by my wife's beauty.
The following are all copy-pasted.
Chao Xian felt somewhat helpless.
Human nature is to replicate +1!
Whether before or after transmigrating into the book, Chao Xian always thought his fans were adorable; they liked him without expecting anything in return.
No matter what decision I make, they will stand by my side.
It is also because of her fans that Chao Xian has been able to maintain her position as a top star in the rapidly changing entertainment industry, where dark horses may emerge at any moment.
Therefore, Chao Xian is especially grateful to his fans.
When they arrived at the ancient town, Chao Xian's eyes lit up as he looked at the hotel in front of him. The warm yellow lights inside the antique-style hotel made him feel relaxed.
The sandalwood incense in the hall made Chao Xian feel as if he had arrived in a small town where he could relax and slow down, instead of a fast-paced city.
Xu Ming'an and Chao Xian's live stream had already been shut down when they got off the bus.
Mu Ziyan walked up to Chao Xian, looking dejected. Chao Xian glanced at Su Ge, then at Mu Ziyan, taking advantage of the fact that there were no other people around.
Chao Xian asked softly, "What's wrong? Weren't you happy before you got in the car? Are you carsick?"
Mu Ziyan shook her head. Looking at Chao Xian's concerned gaze, Mu Ziyan didn't say a word. She couldn't possibly say that she felt Chao Xian would leave the Mu family, judging from the people in the live stream.
Although Mu Ziyan knew that Chao Xian had no better choice than the Mu family.
But what if?
Given her father's habit of leaving early and returning late, she might want to find a new lover who can spend every day with her whenever she has free time.
What should I do then?
Chao Xian did not force Mu Ziyan to say it, and after thinking about it, he didn't say a word.
After checking in, we took Mu Ziyan, who was obediently dragging her suitcase, to the top-floor suite.
The suite has a master bedroom and a secondary bedroom. Mu Ziyan put her suitcase directly into the master bedroom.
I put my suitcase in the second bedroom.
Chao sat idly on the bed, opened the window, and the outside wind, mixed with the scent of grass and trees, rushed into the room, making the air in the whole room seem to come alive all at once.
Chao Xian couldn't help but relax and lay down on the bed.
Mu Ziyan was diligently tidying up for Chao Xian.
Mu Ziyan looked up at Chao Xian lying on the bed and took out the bed sheets and duvet covers she had prepared at home.
He glanced at the sofa next to him, covered it with a cover, and then told Chao to lie down on the sofa.
He dutifully changed the duvet cover on Chao Xian's bed.
Mu Ziyan's movements were a little clumsy. Chao Xian stood up and was about to go over to help Mu Ziyan hold the corner of the quilt.
But then she saw Mu Ziyan frown: "You should rest."
Upon hearing this, Chao Xian could only sit back down on the sofa.
Watching Mu Ziyan fiddling with it back and forth.
After Mu Ziyan finished tidying up, she looked at the neatly made bed, which was no different from the one at home. Mu Ziyan asked in a calm tone, "You said before that you would divorce Dad. Do you still want a divorce now?"
Chao Xian never expected that this was what Mu Ziyan wanted to ask downstairs.
However, Chao Xian has not considered this matter yet.
"Then what should I do?" Mu Ziyan asked, then lowered her head.
I dare not look at Chao Xian.
He seemed to realize that what he said sounded a bit strange.
It was as if they were forcing Chao Xian to make a choice, but Mu Ziyan had been thinking about this for a long time and felt that she should ask Chao Xian.
If you keep it all bottled up inside, you'll never get an answer. Chao Xian will notice your unhappiness, and you'll keep agonizing over the problem yourself.
Perhaps Mu Ziyan would have been conflicted in the past, but after spending a lot of time with Chao Xian, Mu Ziyan felt that her personality was probably getting closer to Chao Xian's.
These five words made Chao Xian, who was sitting on the sofa looking at Mu Ziyan, suddenly turn his head away, not daring to look at Mu Ziyan.
Mu Ziyan is a child of the Mu family. What will happen to Mu Ziyan if they get divorced?
Chao Xian naturally felt that Mu Ziyan should stay in the Mu family, after all, he was the heir of Mu Yunzhou.
But Mu Ziyan didn't seem to want to.
In Mu Ziyan's view, Mu Yunzhou was very good to her, indulging her while also teaching her, but all of this was out of consideration for her deceased parents. Mu Ziyan was very grateful to Mu Yunzhou.
However, compared to Chao Xian, Mu Ziyan would prefer Chao Xian.
It's hard to pinpoint exactly what's different about Chao Xian. Perhaps it's that Chao Xian doesn't spoil him or worry about saying anything that might upset him, which makes Mu Ziyan feel more like a normal child. Mu Ziyan feels very relaxed around Chao Xian.
Chao Xian opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. He didn't know how to explain this to Mu Ziyan.
"Can I be assigned to you?" Mu Ziyan mustered her courage and looked up at Chao Xian.
I eagerly await Chao Xian's reply.
