My Wife Became a Top Star After I Came Back from Quick Transmigration - Chapter 32
Lin Mo knew she was in the wrong, so she accepted Su Qixi’s pounce and didn’t fight back. Her short hair was tousled into a messy ball. Fortunately, Su Qixi couldn’t bring herself to hit her hard, so other things became the victims.
The two of them made a loud ruckus. Su Qixi didn’t even keep her voice down, screaming and yelling.
As a result, someone came to mediate very quickly.
It wasn’t strange for Zhuo Zitao to knock on the door. The noise was like a house was being torn down, and the yelling and screaming were unbecoming of Su Qixi’s usual elegant image.
Besides, there were no cameras in the room, but there were cameras in the hallway! If they continued to make such a scene, and if anyone from the crew decided to leak the video, it would be difficult to explain.
When Zhuo Zitao stood in front of the door, she felt a little guilty knocking. The noise was too loud. What exactly did Lin Mo do?
The door was opened forcefully from the inside. Su Qixi’s pajamas were no longer neat. If it weren’t for her angry expression, Zhuo Zitao would have wondered if the two of them were really arguing or “arguing.”
To be honest, every one of them had also had a private argument with their partners at night.
If they hadn’t joined the show, they wouldn’t have known that “Unparalleled” and “Yu Wu” had two points of credibility.
Su Qixi’s voice from inside the door was soft and sweet, but her tone was very stiff. When she saw it was Zhuo Zitao, she quickly tidied herself up and didn’t forget to greet her. “Sister Zhuo.”
Zhuo Zitao glanced inside the door. Lin Mo was lying on the bed with a face that looked like she had lost the will to live.
Zhuo Zitao asked with a guilty conscience, “Are you guys okay?”
Su Qixi turned her head and glared at Lin Mo, then stiffly replied, “We’re fine. I’m going back to my room to rest.”
Zhuo Zitao quickly made way. When Su Qixi had already walked out the door, she couldn’t help but walk back to the bed and bare her teeth at Lin Mo, saying viciously, “You just wait for me!!!”
Then, she turned and left angrily.
Zhuo Zitao: “…”
“Hiss.” Lin Mo sat up, clutching her neck. She looked at Zhuo Zitao and greeted her politely. “Sister Zhuo, good evening.”
Zhuo Zitao: “…” “Good evening.” You’re so calm.
Zhuo Zitao was confused, but she couldn’t help her gossipy nature. She asked Lin Mo in a low voice, “Did you make her angry?”
Lin Mo looked up at the ceiling, feeling deeply helpless. “…I think so.”
Zhuo Zitao was confused. “What do you mean, you think so?” She looks angry to me.
Lin Mo: “Because I’m not entirely sure what she’s angry about.” Lin Mo had expected Su Qixi to come looking for her. Just as Su Qixi understood Lin Mo well, Lin Mo felt that she also understood Su Qixi very well.
But she hadn’t thought of going further. At most, they would hold hands and hug. With Su Qixi’s personality, she wouldn’t let them go any further.
Lin Mo, however, had forgotten that there were eight years between her and Su Qixi, and Su Qixi was no longer the little girl she used to be.
With two people who were full of affection for each other, alone in a room late at night, a spark could fly in an instant. Lin Mo was a little too confident in her self-control. But because of her past experiences, when she felt a strangling sensation on her neck, she couldn’t help but have a flashback of escaping.
This resulted in her body being dazed while her mind ran off on its own.
Zhuo Zitao was anxious. “Don’t worry about why. Hurry up and go explain!”
With her short hair messed up by Su Qixi, Lin Mo said, “Look at her. Does she look like she would listen?”
She was so angry that she probably wouldn’t listen even if she went over there.
Zhuo Zitao also noticed the blood on Lin Mo’s neck and couldn’t help but be concerned. “What’s wrong with your neck?”
Lin Mo: “Sigh, I’m not going to die. Good night, senior!”
Lin Mo said good night and closed the door, leaving Zhuo Zitao alone outside. Zhuo Zitao was stunned for a moment. She was bleeding. Did they get into a physical fight?
Oh no, if these two start arguing in front of the cameras tomorrow, they’re definitely going to be a trending topic.
Su Qixi returned to her room furiously. After she pounced onto the bed, she angrily hit the pillow. While hitting it, she cursed, “This is too much! Too much! Too much!”
“Damn Lin Mo, stinky Lin Mo, bastard Lin Mo!!!”
“I curse you to have a sleepless night tonight! Sleepless! Sleepless!”
Zhuo Zitao, who was passing by the door: “…” What a vicious curse.
It was in this state of shame and anger that Su Qixi fell asleep soundly and spent the night.
Of course, she didn’t know that the guests in every room at that moment were all staring at the ceiling with wide eyes, filled with worry.
The next morning, Su Qixi finally took Li Xinling off her blacklist. Li Xinling replied almost instantly: [You idiot in love! How dare you blacklist me!]
Su Qixi: [Who are you calling an idiot in love! I’m telling you, I’d rather retire from the industry and jump off this building than be an idiot in love. That stupid Lin Mo!]
Li Xinling was shocked by Su Qixi’s determined tone: […What’s wrong with you?]
You have to know that before that live broadcast, before that phone call, no one, including Su Qixi’s friends, knew about the existence of Lin Mo.
After all, no one would be so bored as to investigate someone’s past.
Besides, Su Qixi’s past had such a terrible father. Most people, except for some unscrupulous media, wouldn’t even ask about her life before college.
Lin Mo really came out of nowhere, a heavy stroke of color in Su Qixi’s otherwise blank past.
At the time, fans might have had to guess Su Qixi’s reaction. But as Su Qixi’s good friend, she naturally knew that this Lin Mo was not an ordinary person.
At least for Su Qixi, she wasn’t just a simple classmate.
That night, they asked Su Qixi in their group chat what was going on.
Su Qixi just said she was a high school classmate and didn’t want to talk about it much. But after being interrogated multiple times, it was revealed that this Lin Mo was the person Su Qixi had a crush on in high school.
She was also the only person Su Qixi had ever liked so far, so she was considered Su Qixi’s first love.
This wasn’t the most shocking part. The most shocking part was that this person had once rejected Su Qixi and had been out of sight for eight years.
Oh my goodness! My friend is so amazing, right? What right do you have to reject her?
The brainless best friends were instantly furious. They recalled how miserable Su Qixi had looked during her first year of college. She always had a gloomy look. They had thought it was because of her father, but it turned out to be because of her first love!
Besides, if this Lin Mo had even a little bit of feelings for Su Qixi, she wouldn’t have disappeared so completely.
Therefore, the friends started to criticize her and even gave Su Qixi ideas on how to get this woman out of her life.
However, after they had said all the bad things they could, they suddenly realized that the person in question was not on the same wavelength as them.
They still remembered what Su Qixi had replied in the group chat: [??? Are you guys eating too much? Lin Mo is only a little bit bad, not very bad. Why should she like me? I’m not a currency that everyone likes. I have hundreds of thousands of haters! Who should I complain to? Isn’t it normal for Lin Mo not to like me?]
Then, the three question marks became their own. At that moment, they realized that their seemingly aloof best friend was actually an idiot in love.
Do you know the despair of your best friend being an idiot in love? If you let go, you’re afraid she’ll get hurt. If you interfere, she yells at you!
Therefore, when she heard Su Qixi curse Lin Mo, Li Xinling was very shocked. Then she was happy. Ah, is the idiot in love finally sober? Did she find out Lin Mo’s true colors?
Li Xinling continued to care: [Are you okay?]
Su Qixi sneered: [I’m great!!!]
Li Xinling asked tentatively: [Did Lin Mo make you angry?]
Su Qixi: [Hehe]
What a great opportunity! My idiot in love is finally growing a brain! I have to add fuel to the fire!
Li Xinling shouted excitedly: [I told you! Her face is that of a scumbag, and she’s only good at fooling naive girls like you. It’s obvious she’s scheming and only after your money. You got fooled, right? You regret it now, right? I’m telling you, you have to teach people like her a lesson, or she’ll keep bothering you.]
Su Qixi’s anger subsided: […] I’ll endure! Li Xinling: [You tell her to wait. When I get there, I’ll teach her a lesson.]
Su Qixi replied with a trembling hand: [You can’t beat her.] Enduring.
Li Xinling: [Heh, I’m an action star. I’ll soon make her kneel and sing “Conquer.”]
Su Qixi was so uncomfortable enduring it: [What did she do to you? Why would you hit her?]
Li Xinling: [She bullied you!]
Su Qixi: [She didn’t bully me!!! Why are you always so hostile toward her!]
Li Xinling: [???]
Li Xinling: [Aaaaaah, you idiot in love, you’re still defending her!]
Su Qixi smiled slightly: [I’m just speaking for justice.
Then, amidst Li Xinling’s text message bombardment, she blacklisted Li Xinling again.
Li Xinling: “…” My heart is broken.
Su Qixi also had her own logic: “Lin Mo is very powerful. I’m actually protecting you, Xinling!”
So, she felt at ease ignoring her best friend.
When Su Qixi had tidied herself up and went downstairs, she found that everyone had woken up early today.
Su Qixi didn’t know that everyone had a sleepless night because of their argument yesterday.
Qiu Mingyi was drinking coffee and reading at the door. Jiang Lun and Wu Qingqing were helping to make breakfast. Zhuo Zitao was playing chess with Yun Yue in the dining room, and Qi Youshan was doing stretching exercises in the courtyard.
Everyone seemed busy, but their eyes kept darting toward the kitchen.
As soon as Su Qixi came down, she was greeted by the gazes of the other six guests.
Seeing that Su Qixi’s expression was relatively normal, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed it wasn’t a big deal. But the fight last night was too intense.
Regarding this matter, Wu Qingqing thought about how she and Jiang Lun had signed a contract as a couple. After the couple became popular, people would always link them together.
For Wu Qingqing at the time, being linked together was indeed beneficial to her. Her years of being an extra had indeed made her greedy, and she was secretly happy. But this joy was shattered when she was humiliated by Jiang Lun’s manager in front of her. The shame of being exposed hit her like a ton of bricks.
She didn’t know if it was Jiang Lun’s idea, but she no longer dared to link them together. She even deliberately avoided Jiang Lun in several interviews. She hadn’t even expected Jiang Lun to come to this show. But anyway, she needed the popularity, so she agreed regardless of whether Jiang Lun came or not. If Jiang Lun didn’t come in the end, the production team would have to pay a penalty for breach of contract, and she could make some money.
Wu Qingqing felt that her relationship with Jiang Lun was already cold enough. They only dared to argue in secret. But these two almost tore down the house. That must be a generational feud!
Everyone else had the same thought. As celebrities, they had an image to maintain. There were plenty of people in the industry with bad relationships, but in front of the cameras, they were all friendly. They would hug each other and call each other brothers and sisters.
Therefore, everyone was afraid of a fight in the morning, so they woke up early to prepare to mediate.
But when they went downstairs, they saw that Lin Mo was already in the kitchen making a cake. But this person was very clever and good at hiding her emotions. Lin Mo this morning was just like the first time they met her. Her demeanor was gentle and calm, her smile was comfortable and clean, and her voice was warm like the wind, making it hard to figure her out.
Now that Su Qixi was down, they had to keep a close eye on her.
Mingyi took the lead in greeting her. “Morning, Qixi.”
Su Qixi smiled. “Morning, senior.”
“Morning, Xiao Xi.” Lin Mo saw her chance and spoke up.
Su Qixi sneered. “Morning? It’s almost 8 a.m.” She flipped her long hair and turned away gracefully.
Lin Mo: “…”
Everyone: “!!!” As expected, they’re about to fight. We need to sound the alarm!
The live broadcast started on time at 8 a.m. The viewers were in the live stream room and saw everyone having breakfast as soon as the broadcast started.
Normally, they would sit next to their partners. This was the original seating arrangement, and it hadn’t changed.
Su Qixi was still sitting next to Lin Mo, but she wouldn’t even look at her.
[Hey, the vibe between Qilin seems a little off.]
[I think so, too. Are they going to break up?]
[Don’t worry! Even if they want to, the production team won’t allow it.]
[I feel like they had a fight.]
Lin Mo saw Su Qixi reach for her teacup and offered her help in a timely manner. “Let me help you!”
Su Qixi scoffed. “Are my hands broken?” She fiercely grabbed the teacup herself!!!
Lin Mo: “…”
After breakfast, Su Qixi got up to clear the table. Lin Mo came over again. “Let me do the dishes!”
Su Qixi: “Why are you taking my job instead of making your cake? Are you idle?” She glared at her fiercely and took a pile of bowls to the sink.
[Such strong sarcasm!!!]
[I’m scared. My Qilin.]
There were a lot of people in this live broadcast today. Someone from Feng Ye’s team came over and said that someone had bought trending topics for Lin Mo and Su Qixi.
The show had only been on for half an hour, and the two of them were already trending.
The hashtag was [Qilin Breakup].
Feng Ye: “…” It smells like a rival company.
There was no doubt about it. The bullet comments said that the production team wouldn’t let [Qilin] break up, and it wasn’t an exaggeration. Qilin’s popularity was growing too fast. To put it shamelessly, they could make back their money just by relying on these two.
No fan of a celebrity couple doesn’t like to see interaction. The show had only been on for a few days. Although Qilin’s fan count wasn’t the highest yet, with this kind of growth, they were bound to be a huge hit this year.
As soon as there was a hint of a bad relationship between the two on the show, they were trending. This was…
Being “anti-busted”!
All morning, Su Qixi was sarcastic one moment and sneering the next. In short, she didn’t have a good expression on her face.
The trending topics were also very lively. To “anti-bust” them, many trending topics were bought.
From [Qilin Breakup], to [Su Qixi’s Sarcasm], to [Miss Pig’s Obsequiousness], to [Their Contract Expired]. In short, it didn’t look like just one rival company was involved; it looked like a full-scale assault.
The fans had a great time watching the videos and also found the discussions on Weibo to be very exciting.
Fortunately, Feng Ye had restored the number of guests to a normal amount for a regular store today, so even during work hours, Lin Mo and Su Qixi had some extra time to chat.
After being subjected to sarcasm all morning, Lin Mo finally couldn’t take it anymore and went over to Su Qixi. Her voice was unusually guilty. “…I’m sorry.”
Su Qixi said, “Oh,” and carried her coffee to the customer’s table. She had a smile on her face as she asked, “Apologize for what? What did you do wrong?”
Lin Mo followed behind her and was silent for a moment. Then she asked in a low voice, “Can I say this in front of the cameras?”
Su Qixi stopped in her tracks. “…”
As expected, there was a chorus of boos from the audience.
“Ooh, ooh, ooh.”
“Ah, ah, ah, what is it? Tell us, Miss Pig, tell us quickly! We’ll be the judge.”
The bullet comments were also very lively: [???]
[?????]
[What’s something you can’t say in front of the cameras?]
Su Qixi’s face turned red, but in the midst of the boos, her face suddenly lit up.
