The Canary and Little Cannon Fodder [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 11

Just as the online speculation regarding the benefactor of Bo Shuyi reached a fever pitch, Lin Nanyun, a director of Hangshan Media, suddenly posted a Weibo message at midnight that instantly triggered a tsunami across the internet.

@LinNanyun: I do not have a father complex. My girlfriend is @BoShuyi.

Bo Shuyi reposted it immediately.

@BoShuyi: I am only in love with you. [Heart] // @LinNanyun: I do not have a father complex. My girlfriend is @BoShuyi.

In the middle of the night, Weibo was directly paralyzed by the sheer volume of netizens eager to consume the gossip. The technical staff had to work overtime to perform emergency repairs and finally fixed the site an hour later.

After posting their Weibo messages and wishing each other goodnight, Bo Shuyi and Lin Nanyun went to sleep. They were completely unconcerned about whether the netizens would suffer from indigestion after consuming such an enormous piece of news.

Another person feeling overwhelmed was Luo Lei, the Uncle Luo of Lin Nanyun and Bo Shuyi. The two girls had forgotten to inform him in advance about their decision to go public with their relationship.

Luo Lei had been suffering from insomnia due to the smear campaign against Bo Shuyi and had only fallen asleep near midnight. He was blasted awake by a phone call from his assistant at half past two in the morning. He spoke in a low, pressured voice, “What kind of madness is this, calling me in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?”

The assistant ignored his tone and shouted, “Brother Luo! The Little Princess and the Beauty Bo have officially announced their relationship on Weibo!”

Luo Lei did not react for a moment. “What Little Princess and Beauty Bo?”

“Oh, Lin Nanyun! Bo Shuyi! Brother Luo, please wake up!” the assistant urged frantically.

Luo Lei felt as if he had been doused with cold water. He shuddered and sat up in bed, gritting his teeth. “These two girls really do not let one have peace of mind.”

He had previously suspected that Bo Shuyi and Lin Nanyun were dating, but he had no idea they would go public just a few days later, and without telling him, their manager, beforehand. He wondered if they thought he would try to break them up and if that was why they had hidden it from him.

Luo Lei hung up on the assistant and went to check Weibo with a troubled mind.

The technical staff had already repaired Weibo. Behind the hashtag #MyGirlfriendBoShuyi was the word “Explosive,” sitting high at the top of the trending list.

Luo Lei clicked on it and was unexpectedly met with a face full of sweetness. At the very top was the repost by Bo Shuyi of the post by Lin Nanyun; the comments had already exceeded thirty thousand.

“They really do not let me rest,” Luo Lei sighed. He clutched his chest and opened the comments, bracing himself for a storm.

Instead, he was surprised. Why were the comments full of envy? There were almost no haters to be seen in the top comments.

@SunsetNotSet: Ah! What kind of beautiful love is this? I am going crazy! I have turned into a lemon tree!

@InvincibleLittleLemon: A wealthy little princess and a great beauty of the entertainment industry. I approve! From today on, I am a sweet lemon!

@Hehe: I am sour. Truly. Why is it not me who is with the Beauty Bo? Why is it not me with the Little Princess? [Crying face]

@BoShuyiVisuals: I have already imagined them getting married! Bo Shuyi and Lin Nanyun are a perfect combination of beauty and wealth. If they could have a child, their child would surely be the most beautiful among the rich and the richest among the beautiful! They are truly winners in life!

Luo Lei was silent. The world was changing fast. Yesterday, Bo Shuyi was being chased and blacklisted; today, she was the object of envy.

The heart of Luo Lei settled back into place. Drowsiness washed over him, and he let out a yawn, put down his phone, and fell back into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning, the phone call from the assistant woke Luo Lei again. Having settled his worries, he had slept exceptionally well. He was not angry about being woken up and said gently, “Xiao Liu, what is the matter?”

Assistant Xiao Liu was not used to such a gentle Luo Lei and thought it was the calm before the storm. He asked cautiously, “Brother Luo, are you not angry about the Little Princess and the Beauty Bo going public?”

Luo Lei stretched, his joints popping. “I am not angry. Bo Shuyi is not an idol. A member of the acting elite can date whenever she wants.”

Xiao Liu felt relieved. “Brother Luo, it is like this. Director Fang from Strawberry Television does not have your contact information, so he called me.”

“Strawberry TV? Fang Zhongyi, I assume?” Luo Lei asked.

“Yes. Director Fang is planning a romance program. It happened that the Little Princess and the Beauty Bo announced their relationship last night, so he wants to invite them to participate. Director Fang knows that the Beauty Bo is about to join the set of ‘Starlight for You.’ The romance show is only in the preliminary planning stage. Director Fang said that if the Beauty Bo agrees to participate, he can wait until she finishes filming ‘Starlight for You.'”

Luo Lei pondered for a moment and said, “I will ask Nanyun what she thinks first. After all, she is not part of the industry.”

Luo Lei frowned. It would be easy enough to talk to Bo Shuyi, but for Lin Nanyun, even if she agreed, convincing Lin Hangshan would not be an easy task.

Luo Lei waited until eight o’clock to call Bo Shuyi, but the line was busy. He then called Lin Nanyun, and the line was still busy. He did not need to guess to know that these two were already on a long morning phone call with each other.

Luo Lei sent them a WeChat message, asking them to come to the company when they had time this morning, as he had important matters to discuss.

“Shuyi, you should hang up first. I cannot bear to do it,” Lin Nanyun said reluctantly after chatting with Bo Shuyi for over an hour.

Bo Shuyi lay on her side, looking out the window as the gentle sunlight fell upon the treetops. “I cannot bear to leave you either. Why do you not give me a kiss, and then I will hang up?”

Lin Nanyun buried her red cheeks into the quilt and whispered, “We are not together right now. How can I kiss you?” She remembered the kiss Bo Shuyi had left on her forehead during the confession yesterday. It was very light and carried a gentle floral scent.

Bo Shuyi said, “I will hang up the phone first, and then we will have a video call for the kiss.”

“Oh.” Lin Nanyun simply could not refuse Bo Shuyi, and she also really wanted to video call her.

This time, when she hung up, there was no feeling of reluctance. Lin Nanyun deeply regretted not just video calling her from the start so she could have seen her sooner.

After the call ended, both of them opened WeChat and discovered the message from Luo Lei, but neither of them opened it.

Bo Shuyi directly ignored the small red notification, opened the chat interface with Lin Nanyun, and sent a video request.

“Shuyi!” The smiling face of Lin Nanyun appeared on the phone screen.

Bo Shuyi sat up, leaning lazily against the headboard. She smiled faintly and said, “I have already paid the reward. Are you ready to kiss me?”

With a swish, Lin Nanyun slammed the phone face down on the bed. The screen of Bo Shuyi instantly went black.

“Nanyun?”

“I am here.” The entire body of Lin Nanyun began to feel hot.

Before the video call, she thought it was just a kiss on the camera, which seemed simple. However, after seeing the face of Bo Shuyi, she was suddenly shy. The thought of her kiss landing on the face of Bo Shuyi made the heart of Lin Nanyun beat faster and faster, as if it would jump out of her chest, even through a screen.

“There is no rush. I will wait for you,” Bo Shuyi said softly and gently.

The slightly raspy voice scraped against the eardrums of Lin Nanyun, and her ears turned red.

This could not continue. Lin Nanyun took a deep breath, lifted the phone, and before she could clearly see the face of Bo Shuyi, she pressed her pink lips against the camera. “Muah!”

Lin Nanyun slammed the phone down again. She lay next to the phone, covered her face, and whispered, “I finished the kiss.”

“Muah.”

Lin Nanyun received a kiss in return.
