After the Female Star Was Slandered Onto the Trending Search List - Chapter 50

Chapter 50: Very Good to Her.

“But seriously,” Lu Xuan Yi’s expression became a little more serious. “You two haven’t known each other for long. Don’t have any filters about her. I don’t know her well, so I don’t know what kind of person she is. I know you’re not impulsive. Don’t let your guard down just because she’s pursuing you. Dating is dangerous, especially when she stands so high.”

Wen Xi understood that Lu Xuan Yi was worried about her getting hurt. She walked closer and held Lu Xuan Yi’s hand. “No need to worry. I know her well.”

“You know what?” Lu Xuan Yi sneered. “You only know how to buy a room full of Shen Yu’s magazines and watch her dramas and movies dozens of times, which is more excessive than watching mine.”

Wen Xi was speechless. After a long moment of thought, she weakly replied, “That’s not true. I also bought 5200 copies of your magazine last time…”

“Oh? Didn’t you buy ten thousand copies of Shen Yu’s magazine set before that?” Lu Xuan Yi sat on the sofa, crossing her legs and lifting her chin. “It got your fan account an invitation to a fan meeting from the fan club, but you didn’t go. You gave the tickets away. I really don’t understand why you didn’t go.”

That fan meeting was for an endorsement collaboration, and the seats were very close to the front. It was too risky for Wen Xi to go, so she gave the tickets to a Shen Yu fan she knew.

Wen Xi’s face flushed slightly. She vaguely said, “I’ll tell you later. It’s late now.”

Lu Xuan Yi stood up and patted her leg. “My apologies. I forgot you’re a married woman now. You’re going to video call Shen Yu later, right? I’m really interrupting you.”

Wen Xi laughed and pushed her gently. “Not at all. I’m worried about you. You just finished filming and now you’re recording a variety show. I want you to rest early. We can chat anytime.” Wen Xi didn’t want to keep secrets from Lu Xuan Yi. She appreciated Lu Xuan Yi’s kindness. Now that she was facing her past and trying to let go, she knew that her relationship with Shen Yu wasn’t something she could explain quickly. She planned to find a chance to talk about it properly in private later.

“I won’t lecture you,” Lu Xuan Yi rolled her eyes beautifully, then paused at the door and poked her head back in. “But I’m happy you have someone. Your well-being is more important than anything.”

“I know,” Wen Xi replied with a smile. “Rest early.”

“But,” Lu Xuan Yi squinted. “Are you two… living together?”

“You guess?” Wen Xi smiled. “You can be bold.”

“I’m too lazy to guess,” Lu Xuan Yi knew immediately from Wen Xi’s expression. “By the way, how is she treating you? I’m worried she might not treat you well, and you’re just putting up with it.”

“She’s very caring,” Wen Xi thought for a moment. “She’s very good to me.”

Lu Xuan Yi really wanted to ask how Shen Yu was taking care of Wen Xi, but suddenly remembering Shen Yu’s cold and distant demeanor when they were in the same production group before, she shivered. Lu Xuanyi quickly shook her head. “But don’t they say that people who are very caring have exes? Did you ask her? You don’t have an ex, this is your first love. Don’t get taken advantage of.”

Wen Xi quickly coughed. “Who said this is my first love?”

“Huh?”

“I’ve dated before,” Wen Xi nudged her again. “About ten years ago.”

“No, when was this?” Lu Xuan Yi was stunned. “The way you’ve been leading such a pure life all these years, I thought you were above human desires.”

“I didn’t want to talk about it before,” Wen Xi smiled, lowering her head. “I can now.”

“Oh~” Lu Xuan Yi nodded. “I get it. What’s that saying? You’ve let go, right? When you have a current partner, you should completely forget your ex. But your single period is way too long. It’s been ten years. You haven’t been thinking about your ex this whole time, have you?”

Wen Xi turned her head and smiled without answering.

After Lu Xuan Yi left, Wen Xi immediately called Shen Yu via video. It rang briefly before being hung up. Wen Xi let out a small “eh.”

The next second, Shen Yu’s voice message came through, with the sound of running water in the background. “Baby, I’m showering. What’s wrong?” Her voice was as pleasant as ever, but with that background sound, it was easy to make one’s ears flush.

Wen Xi cleared her throat and replied by typing.

T.T: “Nothing. Just letting you know I arrived~”

The next day, Wen Xi got up early to get ready. The staff knocked on Wen Xi’s door promptly at seven o’clock.

“Hello, Teacher Twilight. You can call me Xiao Rui. I’m an assistant in the photography team,” Xiao Rui’s mood was instantly lifted by Wen Xi’s beauty in the morning. “Following Teacher Lu’s request, we’ve arranged a small action camera for you. It’s already connected to the live stream equipment. Just press this button to start.” Xiao Rui pointed to a button for Wen Xi.

Wen Xi nodded, took the camera, and examined it. It was light. Action cameras were mainly for video recording, which she rarely used, but she got the hang of it after flipping through it a few times. She smiled and thanked Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui was slightly amazed. This was her first time meeting Twilight. Knowing they would be interacting, she had looked up more about Twilight’s profile on Weibo beforehand. The online comments about her weren’t about her being mysterious, but rather… they piqued her interest. Having been in the entertainment industry for a long time, she was a bit of a face-fan. Looking at Wen Xi’s stunning features and feeling her gentle demeanor, Xiao Rui was secretly overjoyed. She deserved her good fortune in her career; beautiful and gentle people should be like this!

As Xiao Rui thought this, her gaze suddenly caught sight of the ring on Wen Xi’s left hand. Her pupils widened slightly. She already had a partner! Xiao Rui squeezed her eyes shut. She really wondered what kind of person could be worthy of Wen Xi.

The ring on Wen Xi’s left hand had been put on by Shen Yu on Saturday night. They were lying in bed, engaging in their usual pre-sleep activities, which had been deep kisses these past few days, without going any further. However, for Wen Xi, a kiss that made her lose all feeling was already quite taxing. The ring was put on at that time. Wen Xi was kissed until she was disoriented and only realized it long after Shen Yu put it on. Shen Yu had fiercely stated, “You have to tell people you have a partner. You’re not allowed to take it off!” Wen Xi looked at Shen Yu, thinking, this is good too. She had been claimed by Shen Yu.

Xiao Rui continued, “The live stream starts at 8 AM. Teacher Twilight, if possible, we hope you can share the live stream link on your Weibo five to ten minutes beforehand. It serves as promotion. Of course, your camera angle will always follow Teacher Lu.”

“Okay,” Wen Xi replied. “I understand.”

“Then I wish you all the best,” Xiao Rui extended her hand and gently shook Wen Xi’s hand. “At 8 AM, we’ll need to trouble you to wake up Teacher Lu. Her room number is 408, on your right.”

Wen Xi: “Thank you.”

However, Wen Xi was genuinely worried that Lu Xuan Yi might not be awake, fearing she would startle her. So, after Xiao Rui left, she messaged Lu Xuan Yi.

T.T: Are you awake? I’ll be coming to wake you up soon.”

Lu Xuan Yi: How could I not be awake? Don’t worry, there’s no way I’ll let you take an ugly photo of me. I’ve already washed my face. My hair is slightly messy but not fake. I’m already in bed. I’ll close my eyes promptly at eight, waiting for you to wake me up.”

Lu Xuan Yi: “Heheheh.”

T.T: “…”

Wen Xi rubbed her temples. She was overthinking it. Lu Xuan Yi had probably participated in many such live variety shows and was very familiar with the procedure.

At 7:50 AM, Wen Xi promptly posted on Weibo.

“Twilight: Welcome everyone to my live stream at 8 AM: [Live Stream Link] I will be responsible for the guest’s secondary camera angles for Adventure Diary. Thank you to the production team for the trust, and thanks to a certain well-known person for the invitation :)”

Since Adventure Diary was starting its live stream today, many fans rarely went to bed early and woke up early just to watch their idol’s entire day. Therefore, Twilight’s Weibo post instantly received a surge of likes and comments.

“Oh my, the early bird gets the good news!”

“Ahhh, this is the first time Teacher T is working as a videographer! So excited!! Blogger reply: T.T, don’t be too excited. I haven’t done videography before. It’s a last-minute job, but a certain someone said she doesn’t mind if I film her badly.”

“A certain someone? Who is it! I’m curious.”

“It’s Lu Xuan Yi! T-Dà and Lu have a great relationship. They are exceptionally good friends. Lu Xuan Yi is also participating in this show.”

“Yep, yep. T-Dà also said she was invited by someone. Old fans can tell from that phrasing that it’s Lu Xuan Yi, hahahaha.”

“Their relationship is really great! They are good friends who supported each other all the way!”

“So, the camera angle from T-Dà is for Teacher Lu?”

“It’s settled!”

At this moment, in a room not far away, Shen Yu slowly curved a smile.

At 8 AM, Wen Xi turned on the camera switch on time. She put her phone back in her pocket, though she had checked the live stream count a few minutes earlier. It was over 10,000, so she hadn’t held Lu Xuanyi back. She couldn’t see the comments here, but it didn’t affect the enthusiasm of the audience.

“Good morning, Teacher T!”

“Alright, alright, let’s guess which guest this is for!”

Wen Xi held the camera in her left hand, and knocked on the door with her right. “Teacher Lu Xuan Yi?”

“As expected, absolutely no suspense.”

“LOL, Lu’s fans also feel there’s no suspense. Even the major fan accounts reposted Teacher Twilight’s Weibo, but when asked, everyone was just guessing.”

“I don’t know who to envy more. A good friend inviting you to be their videographer on a show. I’m seriously turning into a lemon. The two of them will be so happy these few days!”

“Twilight’s voice is so pleasant! Can she talk more!”

“Come in.” Lu Xuan Yi’s voice was a little hoarse, like she had just woken up.

Wen Xi slowly opened the door. Lu Xuan Yi was already sitting up in bed. “Twilight is too polite,” Lu Xuan Yi shrugged at the camera. “She still knocks, making you all miss seeing me sleeping.”

Wen Xi smiled and handed over the mission card.

“Let me see,” Lu Xuan Yi took the mission card while sitting on the bed and read it aloud. “Each person’s room has four clues. The clues are hidden within brightly colored objects. Guests can rely on the live stream comments for hints and work with the audience to find the clues. Guests can use the clues to head to the gathering point.”

Lu Xuan Yi sighed softly. “What? Clue hunting right away? I’m already starving.”

“But,” Lu Xuan Yi picked up the phone that came with the mission card. “I’ll definitely have an easier time with your help. Everyone, please save me.”

“Oioi, it’s the interactive segment!”

“Can the cameraman see the comments? Can you film the room details more? We’ll look for them together!”

“The cameraman doesn’t have a free hand for a phone,” Lu Xuan Yi saw this comment. “But I can read them to her. Baby, the audience in the live stream wants you to film the room details more.”

Wen Xi held the camera and moved it up and down, simulating a nod, then moved the lens to various parts of the room. The audience followed Wen Xi’s perspective, searching for clues together. Adventure Diary also earned money through the live stream. Viewers could send designated gifts to their favorite guests, with the show and the guest splitting the revenue fifty-fifty. Wen Xi had some visibility, so her name was also added to the gifting section.

One particular account sent tens of thousands of gifts to Wen Xi in just a few minutes, successfully raising their account to a VIP seat. Their comments now had an exclusive, prominent bubble, and their nickname had a “Twilight” tag next to it when they spoke.

This user was particularly sharp-eyed, and their comments were conspicuous. Wherever they suggested the camera move, Lu Xuan Yi would relay the message. They concisely pointed out the location of the clues.

“Plushie.”

“Box.”

“…”

The crowd was amazed.

“The expert’s mind is too good! Ahhh, I saw the answer before I could even react.”

“The plushie was really well hidden, but they saw it. The camera only quickly glanced at it.”

“It’s a fan of T-Dà! How come I haven’t seen them in the fan group ww”

Lu Xuan Yi read out the account nickname. “Thank you to user ‘At Twilight Time’ for the clue. Remember to contact the production team later; there will be prizes.”

Wen Xi, who was diligently filming nearby, paused.

That nickname…

Could it be Shen Yu?
