After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Princess of Your Circle Chapter 117: Chapter 117: The Princess of Your Circle Zhai Hongshen furrowed his brow as he stepped outside and said, “You guys go in first.”

The people behind him looked at each other in bewilderment.

So they really did know each other.

Shen Yan stood there, watching as Zhai Hongshen walked towards her and stopped in front of her.

The gaze that fell on her carried a coercive scrutiny.

“Shen Yan?”

Shen Yan slowly pulled down her mask, revealing her face, slightly reddened from being covered.

Seeing her stunning face, Zhai Hongshen felt a moment of dizziness.

Someone with Shen Yan’s temperament didn’t quite match her top-tier beauty.

Zhai Hongshen knew that it was his sister’s fault, and facing Shen Yan now, he felt somewhat guilty.

“Was your sister responsible for the incident in Jin City?”

Shen Yan met his gaze and asked.

Zhai Hongshen didn’t evade, “Indeed, it was Xilan’s doing, but you should know that Xilan had liked Qi Si long before you did. Moreover, everyone thinks they are well suited for each other.”

This statement was a bit uncomfortable to hear.

It was as if he was saying Shen Yan was the third party who intervened.

Shen Yan, “She wanted to kill me.”

Zhai Hongshen frowned, “Shen Yan, this was our Zhai Family’s fault. Qi Si has also given Xilan a severe punishment. Whatever compensation you want, the Zhai Family can provide it.”

Using benefits to resolve the situation.

Not that it wasn’t possible.

But she didn’t need these.

Shen Yan calmly asked, “If it were you, could you accept it?”

Zhai Hongshen’s handsome brows tightened even more.

If it were him, naturally he would not consent.

But…

“Shen Yan, the Zhai Family will do their utmost to compensate you. If you insist on Xilan’s life, as her brother, I will inevitably stand in the way, just as your older brother would do anything for you.”

Shen Yan was startled.

She silently stared at Zhai Hongshen.

Zhai Hongshen felt that Shen Yan was somewhat strange.

She was very different from the Shen Yan he had known before.

“Can you truly sacrifice everything for your family?”

Zhai Hongshen didn’t understand why she was asking these questions, but he still nodded.

“Even if it means trading your life for your sister’s?”

Zhai Hongshen stared at Shen Yan for a long while, then said, “If it really comes to a choice, I would.”

Shen Yan pursed her lips, those unsettlingly still eyes staring blankly at Zhai Hongshen.

After a long time, Zhai Hongshen only heard Shen Yan’s faint voice, “Your sister is very fortunate.”

Shen Yan pulled up her mask, turned around, and walked away against the cold wind.

Zhai Hongshen stood there, stunned, watching her slender figure disappear into the distance, his handsome brows slowly tightening, feeling… somewhat upset.

It must be just an illusion.

Shen Zheng was even more doting to his sister. Shen Yan was the most fortunate princess in their circle!

Surrounded by so many people, even if she blatantly chased after men in the entertainment industry, Qi Si, a man of decisive actions, surprisingly tolled the cuckoldry.

So…

That envious look in Shen Yan’s eyes just now, it was his illusion.

*

On the flight back to Shen City.

Qi Si occasionally flipped through the paper contracts in his hand, while Shen Yan’s seat piled up with a large stack.

All sorts of contracts.

Shen Yan pulled on her eye mask and lay down comfortably.

Qi Si stared at a contract for a long while, raised his hand to press his brow, then glanced sideways to see Shen Yan sleeping with her eye mask on.

He remembered his encounter with Shen Zuo that morning.

The frequent interventions by the Shen Family were actually unnecessary.

Shen Yan was no longer the same as before.

Unlike Shen Zheng’s half-warning, half-threat, Shen Zuo was very gentle throughout, talking about Shen Yan’s shortcomings, asking him to be tolerant and the like.

The posture seemed very humble, the request genuine, yet it subtly conveyed an invisible warning.

Truly, as the head of the Shen Family, the art of speech was highly refined.

Shen Zuo knew it was tough for Qi Si; once Shen Yan stirred up any more big trouble on her side, Qi Si wouldn’t need to tolerate her for the sake of the Shen Family.

Despite this statement, Qi Si didn’t believe that Shen Zuo had completely pushed Shen Yan out.

If that day came when Qi Si’s actions were deemed unfair, the Shen Family would attack the Qi Family like a ferocious beast, baring its vicious fangs.

This family really was…

*

After taking Shen Yan home, Qi Si was called away by a phone call.

Shen Yan went upstairs and placed the red booklet on the table; inside were photos of her and Qi Si together.

Her delicate fingers gently traced their pictures, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

Their first truly meaningful photo together.

She closed the marriage certificate carefully and placed it in the drawer, then turned and went downstairs.

Liu Su had just finished a phone call outside the yard, and as he entered, he said, “Shen… uh, madam, the skincare product you endorse has sold out in Asia again!”

“Did it make money?”

“Not just money! It also gained a good number of international fans!” Liu Su said, almost squinting his eyes with joy, “Director Li called, saying that he wants to run a special ‘Survival on a Desert Island’ episode during the new year. The ratings for the previous episodes were astonishing, and the show has really taken off. He wants to add a few more episodes, we’ll need to consider it carefully.”

“If it can boost popularity, we might think about renewing,” Shen Yan, feeling the benefits of being a hot topic on social media, naturally wouldn’t miss an opportunity to enhance her public appeal.

However, Liu Su hesitated a bit, “Always recording variety shows might not be good for your future development.”

Liu Su had already reviewed several scripts for the upcoming year; they were all quite good, and this time, it wouldn’t be for a supporting role but as the lead.

Shen Yan understood what Liu Su meant.

Filming would mean staying on set for at least two to three months, and for a high-quality production, it could take even longer.

Her metaphysical ailment would migrate to her physical body after a month of expiration.

She couldn’t afford to gamble.

Therefore, participating in variety shows was the quickest shortcut to increase popularity.

“If there’s a good script, we can also adjust the timing to take on a few.”

Hearing this, Liu Su said, “I will pick a suitable script carefully for the madam!”

Shen Yan, with concern, asked, “Is it really okay to shoot ‘Survival on a Desert Island’ in winter?”

The summer had already proven too much for the participants, let alone in the middle of winter.

“That depends on how Director Li communicates with everyone. There’s not much time; we have to pack and leave tomorrow.”

Since they had signed a contract for five episodes, with two left, whatever time Director Li decides to start filming, the contracted celebrities must comply.

The next day.

Shen Yan and Liu Su set out for Hai City.

Director Li, wealthy and bold, chose such a location for the shoot close to the New Year.

Besides the regular guests, this time Director Li specifically invited amateurs with advanced survival skills.

It seemed Director Li was afraid of sparing the celebrities any embarrassment.

The plane landed at Hai Zhou Airport.

Hai City experiences a tropical marine monsoon climate, surprisingly mild even as February approached!

Shen Yan, wearing a mask and dressed lightly, followed Liu Su, while several guests awaited in the VIP lounge, occasionally peering out, precisely speaking, only Qin Ding Yue was peeking out.

Chu Jinghe occasionally stole glances at Mu Jincheng seated beside her, seeing his indifferent expression, she finally relaxed a bit.

“Yanyan! Over here, here!”

As Qin Ding Yue raised her voice, Chu Jinghe couldn’t help but frown.

If they didn’t know Qin Ding Yue was a girl, they would have genuinely thought she was Shen Yan’s lapdog.

Her noisy presence was annoying wherever she went.

“Ding Yue, I hit my head earlier; can you keep it down a bit?” Chu Jinghe’s voice was warm and gentle, impossible to fault.

Qin Ding Yue turned to look at her, uttered an “oh,” and said, “Sorry, Mr. Chu, I didn’t know your brain was damaged.”

Chu Jinghe’s forehead twitched violently, a bit stiff!

Gritting her teeth, she forced a smile, “My brain isn’t damaged; I just accidentally hit it.”

Mu Jincheng also frowned, glancing at Qin Ding Yue before showing concern for Chu Jinghe.

Qin Ding Yue blinked innocently.

What’s going on, what’s going on?

Why was Mu Jincheng looking at her like that, and why did Chu Jinghe seem aggrieved? No one was bullying her.

Zhou Jingming found it a bit funny—was Qin Ding Yue really not doing it on purpose?

“Hello everyone!”

Shen Yan raised her hand, smiling as she greeted everyone.

“Yanyan, hello! We meet again!”

“Yes, we meet again!”

Mu Jincheng, his face cold, pulled his gaze away from Shen Yan’s smiling face and said somewhat unpleasantly, “You’re late.”
