Chapter 402

402 Don’t Interfere With Adults’ Matters

“My phone wasn’t charged.” Shi Xi felt that she was in the wrong and asked, “Did you tell the director that I’ll be late?”

“I asked for an hour’s leave from the director. He said that he would shoot other people’s scenes first.” Zhu Lin had been an assistant for a long time and could already handle some small matters.

“That’s good.” Shi Xi heaved a sigh of relief. “Did anything happen?”

Zhu Lin hesitated and said, “In the wee hours of the morning, there was a trending search for you that was hung up for a long time. When I looked at it again in the morning, the entry was already gone.”

!!

Shi Xi probably knew that she had been hacked again after receiving so many concerned messages.

However, her friends’ messages were all ‘Don’t mind the comments online, I believe you.’

Shi Xi had no idea what kind of comments were posted online!

“What trending search?” Shi Xi opened Weibo and searched for her name.

“Uh, a passerby took a picture of you getting into Mr. Xie’s car. The marketing account said that you were taken care of by a rich old man.” Zhu Lin briefly introduced the battle situation last night. “However, most of the netizens trust your character and don’t believe such rumors.”

Shi Xi didn’t see the trending search, but she saw many people scolding her for being vain in her private messages.

“Xie Yunzhou? Rich old man?” Shi Xi was confused. “He will be away from the rich old man for another 50 to 60 years, right?”

“The video did not capture Mr. Xie. It only captured his clothes and a small part of his chin. The netizens guessed that he is a rich old man,” Zhu Lin explained.

Shi Xi thought to herself, ‘This works too?’

The netizens were really bored.

“Oh right, Xi Xi, Brother Han said that if you go shopping in the future, it would be best for you to go shopping with a girl,” Zhu Lin whispered.

“I was going to go shopping with a girl friend.” Shi Xi thought about the development of the whole thing yesterday and was a little confused. “I don’t know how it ended up being so ridiculous.”

Zhu Lin: “…Okay.”

“I’ll send you a WeChat message. I ordered a few clothes from her and will get them in about a month. You can communicate with her after that.” Shi Xi sent Song Song’s WeChat message to Zhu Lin.

She was afraid that she had forgotten.

Zhu Lin added Song Song’s WeChat message and added the matter of ‘picking up the clothes’ into the memo.

Shi Xi recalled what happened yesterday and asked Tao Yuxuan what happened after that.

Tao Yuxuan replied proudly: [After knowing that I was pregnant, that green tea face turned black. She pretended to be generous and wanted to break off the engagement!]

Shi Xi: [My brother agreed to you using this method?]

Tao Yuxuan: [Of course he agreed!]

Shi Xi: [Then have you thought about what you two will do after their engagement is broken off?]

Tao Yuxuan: [?]

Shi Xi: [You are pregnant with my brother’s child, and then?]

Tao Yuxuan: […]

Tao Yuxuan was speechless.

Shi Xi went to ask about it from Shi Xu again.

Shi Xu: [Take it one step at a time.]

He didn’t care about it anymore.

Besides, having a shield that was easy to control was a good thing for him.

He hadn’t thought about getting married yet.

Shi Xi asked, [What about Tao Tao in the future?]

Shi Xu: [It’s adults’ business. Children should mind their own business.]

Shi Xi: ?!?!

Fine, you adults handle it yourselves.

I’d like to see what tricks you can come up with!

Shi Xi simply didn’t care.

Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with her.

The worst that could happen was that Xu Ziqing would become her sister-in-law.

Thinking of this, Shi Xi didn’t understand.

Grandpa Shi had been a soldier all his life. Why did he start to misunderstand people in his later years?

Was he suffering from dementia?

Shi Xi wondered if she should find some time to visit Grandpa Shi.
