Prev | Directory | Next

You In The Scenery 0723: No matter what, I'll still send my blessings. I don't know what kind of person Mrs. Yu is, but if you chose her, then as a fan of over ten years, I'll keep supporting you. You were with me from school all the way to marriage and kids, and you made my spiritual life so much richer. I'm just really thankful.

Buddhist Chant Loop Still Can't Sleep: I hate that woman. You must've been forced to marry her, right? I didn't sleep at all last night, and when I woke up, even the sky wasn't blue anymore. After hearing the news, I lost interest in everything. A marriage without love won't be happy. Wishing you a speedy divorce.

Lalala: Random passerby here. Are you fans always this zqsg? It's just a marriage. You're acting like it's the end of the world. fxfy, scary stuff.

Choos To Eat Zhe'ergen Or Drink Blue Moon: Is this real? Am I still dreaming? I'm going back to bed...

zd: Wishing you a lifetime of happiness.

Double Yolk Egg: No comment. See you all on the rooftop, lol. In my next life, I'm coming back as his wife. Hehe. You'll never get my blessing. Never. I'll watch you two divorce. Stupid bitch, don't even think about stealing him. Why you and not me? You just got lucky, that's all.

italululi: Mrs. Yu, if you're reading this, please make sure to love him well, I'm begging you!! Also, please consider having a chubby baby ASAP!! Can we see a baby born within a year? Time's ticking—our film king's not getting any younger, sob.

Qi Zhen: "..."

Honestly, she didn't feel much of anything. The well-wishes made her want to smile, but even the nasty curses didn't really upset her.

Most of it was just talk anyway. Didn't really have anything to do with her.

Still, she felt a little down. She'd never gotten this kind of pure malice from strangers before.

She had the day off, and Jing Zi called her out for lunch. But Qi Zhen wasn't feeling it. She hung her head and shook it, hugging her knees like a stray cat. "Not really hungry."

Mm-hmm. Instant noodles would do. Her husband wasn't around anyway.

One minute later, right on cue, a message popped up from him on WeChat:
[Healthy Eating: 8 Dangers of Junk Food – A Must-Read for Young People!]

Qi Zhen bit her thumb and opened the article wide-eyed:

[Junk food is beloved by young people blablabla causes cancer blablabla flat chest, stunted growth... Experts recommend daily fiber intake...]

She immediately sat cross-legged and looked up, pitiful like a folded-ear cat, and clasped her hands in a pleading gesture.
"I suddenly really want to eat! Let's go eat together, pleeease."

Li Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. "Can you make up your mind? Are you eating or not? Are you even three years old yet?"

Qi Zhen jumped out of bed. "Eating! I'm eating, okay!"

They went to a small restaurant near campus. It was right at the lunchtime rush, packed and buzzing. Qi Zhen couldn't shake the feeling that at least seven or eight people in the room were talking about the same thing. Every now and then, she'd hear things like "Yu Jingxing" or "Hubby, I forbid you from registering a marriage with another woman!"

...stuff like that.

So she felt prickly all over, like the chair was made of needles. She instantly lost her appetite again.

As if Yu Jingxing had more fans than her idol!

No way!

He was just the most popular guy on the planet, that's all!

Jing Zi noticed her zoning out and dropped a piece of sweet and sour pork into her bowl. "Stop spacing out. Come back to earth!"

Qi Zhen lowered her head and chewed on the pork ribs, when suddenly she heard sobbing from the table next to them.

"I want booze, boss lady! Ten bottles! No—twenty bottles of Maotai! No, just bring out every bottle of alcohol you've got!"

The boss lady came out, wiping her apron. "Sweetheart, we're just a tiny place—we don't have Maotai!"

The girl wiped her tears and sobbed, "Anything's fine! I don't care!"

Qi Zhen: "..."

Getting hit with a beer bottle must really hurt, huh?

Li Yuanyuan stayed much calmer, trying to shake off the gloomy mood. She raised her glass and toasted, "I've thought it through. Check the man's family background—he married someone outside the industry, right? Gotta be a rich, beautiful heiress his family introduced."

"Guaranteed to be a tall, fair-skinned, long-legged 5'9" Harvard-Yale grad, a high-class socialite with perfect manners. Even if she's not a celeb, she probably still crushes half the female stars in showbiz."

Qi Zhen could only cradle her face and force a smile.

Ever since Yu Jingxing announced the wedding, the internet had been in total chaos. Even though the official stance was for fans to stop digging and speculating, human curiosity knew no bounds. Some things just couldn't be stopped—you could only wait for the buzz to fade.

The hashtag #YuJingxingWife shot up the trending list and quickly hit the number one spot.

Of course, clicking in wouldn't show you anything useful.

At most, marketing accounts were just recycling all the women he'd ever been rumored with, plus throwing in a few outsider types like female artists and entrepreneurs.

One female painter who had apparently only nodded at him once in public got dragged out and overanalyzed from top to bottom. Nothing and no one was off-limits.

Even pianist Sun Lingshu, who'd studied with him abroad at a prestigious university—she was a year above him and a close friend back then—got brought up. The woman's kid was practically in middle school now, and she still didn't escape the witch hunt.

But not one of them hit the mark.

Still, plenty of "microscope girls" started picking up on the tiniest signs from Yu Jingxing's recent activity online.

He barely posted on Weibo. His Weibo and Instagram had been public forever, but they were mostly ghost towns, so even a single post could land on the trending charts.

It used to be all stiff posts like "So awkward." or promo blurbs, or reposts of content from variety shows or movie accounts under his agency.

Occasionally there'd be something a little personal—but it was never obvious. Maybe a night view, or something related to filming.

Lately, though, the only vaguely personal thing was...
