Chapter 140

n

nXunMi wore a pure white sleeping gown while sitting on the edge of the bed with her slender legs draped over the side. Her chestnut hair softly curved along the outlines of her face. Her head was slightly tilted. Her eyes leisurely looked up, making viewers suddenly feel breathless seduced by her beauty. But in the next second, her eyes were filled with clean pureness with a bit of sleepiness, as if she wasn’t fully awake yet and was working on auto pilot.

nOu JinYan opened the front door and was greeted by such a mouthwatering and beautiful scene. He put down the things in his hands and walked forward, bending down to slip XunMi’s feet into a pair of slippers. Then he pulled her to the bathroom. After preparing her toothbrush and a towel, he pinched her cheeks. ” Go wash up. I’ll go make crystal tangyuan for you. And shrimp dumplings.”{T

/N: Mmm, get me a man like this.}

nAs soon as she heard the word ‘eat’, XunMi’s eyes brightened. Renewed with energy, she began washing her face and brushing her teeth. Ou JinYan held back laughter as he watched XunMi come to life.

nHe then turned to begin preparing food for his hungry kitten. He had never noticed before how much Mi’er liked to eat. But it was so unexpectedly cute. He really wanted to pet her.

nXunMi didn’t know what Ou JinYan was thinking to himself. Her entire brain was engulfed with thoughts about her little tangyuan and shrimp dumplings. She quickly tidied up, changed into sweatpants, and hopped down the stairs. It was as if she was afraid that there wouldn’t be any left if she came too late.

nXunMi happily picked up a beautiful shrimp dumpling. She ate each dumpling in one single bite. When she finished half of the entire plate, XUnMi put down her chopsticks and jumped back into her room and grabbed her phone before flying back down.

nClick, click! She captured images of the breakfast spread. XUnMi had decided that she wanted to spread her happiness to others. But to others, she was just about to commit jealousy-inducing PDA.

/(ㄒoㄒ)

nOu JinYan watched XunMi dotingly the entire time, even helping her rearrange the table so to capture a more flattering photo. After eating breakfast, the two went to the amusement park hand in hand. It was early morning on a weekday so the park wasn’t that crowded. The two quickly went through half of the rides. But when the crowd grew as the sun rose higher and higher, XunMi and Ou Jinyan decided to head back. Today’s adventures had warranted them another appearance within the paparazzi’s camera lens. But they couldn’t be bothered.

nWhy didn’t the pictures from yesterday spread? That’s because Ou Corporation already warned that whoever dared to report any unfavorable news about XunMi could be blacklisted.

nOu JinYan was Ou Corporation’s chairman. You can go against the heavens or the earth, but you wouldn’t dare go against him. Therefore, the anticipated crazy news storm was easily resolved. Only those involved knew the truth.

nBai QianWei squeezed the picture in her hands, the hatred in her eyes flowing out. How did she forget that Ou JinYan treated XunMi differently? There was no way she could get what she wanted with this method now. But that’s not a problem. If she can’t do any public damage, she’ll do private damage.

nShe looked at the computer in front of her and opened a new chat window.

nThe Only: JK, can you help me with something? {T

/N: Her chat name, The Only, is WeiYi in Chinese. The same Wei from her name Bai QianWei}

nJK: It’s WeiYi ah~! Tell me, of course I’ll help you. Your brother and I were comrades.

nThe Only: I’m sending you a photo. Can you help me disperse? Don’t let anyone know you got it from me, and cover your tracks too!

nJK: Alright, got it.

nBai QianWei quickly sent over the file to JK. Under the computer screen’s light, her face glowed with malice. The internet had been brimming with comments. First, they were about Queen Ni’s return. Then, they were about comparing Bai QianWei’s looks to Ni XunMi. Later on, they were about Queen Ni possibly announcing her mysterious lover and guessing who her boyfriend was. Afterwards, that HD picture of Queen Ni with a tall man was uploaded. In a quick moment,arguments about whether this was real love or whether Queen Ni had turned into a kept mistress spread,and intensified by the hour.It originally wasn’t supposed to become such a hot topic. However, the male lead’s identity had been discovered.

nAfter they discovered that the man was Ou Corporation’s Ou JinYan, aka Bai QianWei’s rumored boyfriend,the story became a love triangle. Moreover, the two girls involved were practical doppelgangers. Slowly, the narrative of the substitute and the first love formed. Everyone thought that Queen Ni had to be the first love, while Bai QianWei was the substitute. Now that the first love was back, there was no use for the substitute. There was an unprecedented level of negativity towards Ou JinYan.

nThere were also comments expressing their disdain of XunMi. Of course, Bai QianWei the substitute was also disliked. But out of the three, Bai QianWei had it the best. She even gained some sympathizers. After all,Bai QianWei had posted her own Weibo after discovering how heavily implicated she was in the situation.

nMy Only One (v): I would have never thought my happiness was all just a lie. I don’t want to lose, yet I’ve lost.

nA simple and short post without any attachments. Yet it had the power to twist public opinion. The already negative public reaction took a turn for the worse.

nMeanwhile, the two other stars of the scandal were cuddled together munching on chips and watching TV.

nXunMi leisurely pose made those that ran over out of worry immediately regret their actions.

n“Little sis, what are you going to do about this?” Second brother Ni flopped down opposite XunMi to block the television behind him. They were here worried to death about her and yet she was watching TV!

nTang Guo’er was also concerned. “Mi, do you have a plan? I just got a call from the director for tomorrow’s audition. He said they…already chose someone else. And that person, coincidentally, is Bai QianWei. I won’t complain about that, but Director Lu’s audition is coming up.If he knew that you’re covered in scandal, he’ll be reluctant too.” Lu QianYu was infamously difficult and callous.

nShe was worried that their almost done deal would be affected.

nXunMi ate the chip that Ou Jinyan was feeding her. She took a sip from the teacup in his hand before speaking. “Second brother, Guo’er. Don’t worry. When I went out to eat with Jin ge earlier, we already noticed those people following us. I just didn’t imagine that Bai QianWei would use this method. But it’s fine, we were preparing to announce our relationship anyways. I was just planning on having you arrange a press conference for tomorrow. Since Bai QianWei wants to be a white lotus flower, I’ll make sure she’s darkened inside and out. Humph.” Not only had Bai QianWei tried to scheme against her, but she even tried to pull her husband down too? That’s unforgivable.

nAnd that woman’s weibo post. Was she seeking death?

nIf Bai QianWei wanted to use her to gain fame, she should at least check to see if luck was on her side.
