Chapter 63: Using the Most Elegant Expression to Say the Most Cutting Words
The screen showed the live broadcast of After Divorce, Are You Happy?
Huo Qingyan paused it, the image frozen on Cheng Xishi’s entrance, making eye contact with Jiang Su.
and the screen filled with comments like “They’re so well-matched!” and “That look is definitely love!”
Zhou Fu had seen Jiang Su and Cheng Xishi’s movie.
He had thought they were a good match.
But if he said that to Huo Qingyan, wouldn’t he be asking for death?
Zhou Fu shook his head like a rattle: “No way, they’re clearly two different types of people!”
Huo Qingyan looked up at Zhou Fu, his voice calm: “Tell the truth, I won’t be angry.”
“Really?” Zhou Fu was dubious.
Huo Qingyan hummed in agreement.
Zhou Fu confidently said, “They’re pretty well-matched. I even thought Mr. Jiang and Cheng Xishi fell in love because of the movie…”
He became increasingly excited.
Until he sensed something was wrong in the room.
He looked up and met Huo Qingyan’s death stare.
Zhou Fu: ??
Didn’t he say he wouldn’t be angry?
Men’s words are like the wind!
“I remember I still have some unfinished business; I’ll go back to the office first.” Zhou Fu quickly escaped.
…
At the recording studio.
Cheng Xishi had already sat down next to Jiang Su.
Jiang Su turned to look at him.
Cheng Xishi moved a plate of peanut brittle away from Jiang Su, saying gently, “Long time no see.”
The onlookers were very confused: “What’s he doing? Not letting Jiang Su have snacks?”
A little Jiang Su fan explained: “It’s because our SuSu is allergic to peanuts!”
CP fans: “Still saying this isn’t love!”
…
Cheng Xishi’s appearance significantly boosted the live viewership.
Some people had already posted screenshots of their eye contact on Weibo, and others had made GIFs.
The show continued, and Fu Jin announced the first topic:
—Why did you divorce?
The comments weren’t all from the guests’ fans; many were outspoken netizens.
“Why divorce? Because he became famous and abandoned his wife,” this referred to Xu Ce.
“He has a whole grassland on his head; how could a man tolerate that?” This referred to Tang Juanzi.
【Wen Shanjing also had poor judgment; it’s too tragic.】
【It seems only Dong Xinyue had a peaceful divorce?】
【Does anyone know why Jiang Su divorced?】
Dong Xinyue spoke first: “My ex-husband and I talked calmly, and we both felt it was time to end the relationship; it was a peaceful divorce.”
Xu Ce: “My ex-wife and I couldn’t communicate…”
Tang Juanzi: “He couldn’t give me the security I wanted…”
One abandoned his wife after becoming famous, the other repeatedly cheated on her husband; both were terrible people, blaming their exes.
Netizens in the comments started cursing, and the fans of the two began fighting with netizens.
Wen Shanjing smiled bitterly: “Everyone knows why I divorced.”
Wen Shanjing was truly pitiful.
Finally, it was Jiang Su’s turn.
Jiang Su simply said three words: “I didn’t love him anymore.”
The comments started a frenzy of criticism:
【As expected of a love-brained person!】
【Loved, so he married and quit the industry; didn’t love, so he divorced and came back??】
【Says he loves, then he loves; says he doesn’t, then he doesn’t; do you accept it?!】
Everyone present turned to look at Jiang Su.
Fu Jin immediately asked the next question: “You were called a love-brained person and quit the industry to get married; how did you suddenly stop loving him?”
Jiang Su asked him back: “You happily announced your marriage on Weibo; why did you suddenly not want to get married the next day?”
Fu Jin: “Didn’t want to get married, so I didn’t.”
Jiang Su: “Why didn’t you want to get married?”
Fu Jin: “I didn’t want to, that’s why; what’s there to explain?”
Jiang Su: “Oh.”
Fu Jin realized he’d been tricked by Jiang Su.
Damn it, who’s the host here??
The comments were full of “Hahaha.”
【Hahaha, wow, my favorite part is here!】
【Is this show this ruthless? Not even letting the host off hahaha】
【Jiang Su really dares to speak hahaha】
【Fu Jin: Damn, I got tricked??】
…
Tang Juanzi looked at Jiang Su disapprovingly, softly interjecting: “Teacher Fu is the host; isn’t it a bit excessive for you to target him like this, Jiang Su?”
Her soft voice and innocent expression were overly dramatic.
Jiang Su glanced at Tang Juanzi, suddenly smiling, appearing clean and innocent.
Tang Juanzi’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
Jiang Su seemed to agree: “Targeting Teacher Fu was wrong of me.”
The next second, he changed his tone: “We’re all guests, so targeting you isn’t excessive, is it? Some netizens say you divorced because your husband caught you cheating?”
“You…” Tang Juanzi panicked: “Don’t spread rumors!”
Jiang Su was crazy, daring to say this on the show!
“It’s one thing for uninformed netizens to believe rumors, but why are you also believing them, Jiang Su?” Xu Ce also had a grudge against Jiang Su and naturally spoke up for Tang Juanzi.
Jiang Su turned to Xu Ce: “Teacher Xu, I heard you divorced because after becoming famous again, you looked down on your wife who had shared your hardships, and you were already unclear with your new assistant before the divorce; is that right?”
There were no secrets in the entertainment industry; many people knew about Xu Ce’s affairs, but no one in this circle was clean, so no one would expose these things publicly.
Jiang Su was incredibly bold.
He said it directly on the show.
And it was a live broadcast!
“Don’t push it!” Xu Ce stood up angrily, shouting: “I demand we stop recording!”
Xu Ce’s outburst sent the comments into a frenzy:
【Jiang Su: Still complaining?】
【He’s panicking! Xu Ce is panicking!】
【Xu Ce can’t take it anymore hahaha】
【Hahaha, does Jiang Su know this is a live broadcast?】
【I thought the production team was bluffing about no script, but now I believe it.】
【Damn, Jiang Su is trying to kill my whole family laughing; so exciting hahaha…】
The production team ignored Xu Ce’s request and zoomed in on him for a close-up.
Fu Jin felt like a useless person for the first time.
With Jiang Su on the show, what was he even doing there?
Was he hired to cheer Jiang Su on?
Jiang Su turned to Shen Man, smiling: “Director Shen, Teacher Xu can’t handle it anymore; why don’t you pause recording and let him adjust his mood?”
Using the most elegant expression to say the most cutting words.
Shen Man, a visual person, couldn’t resist Jiang Su’s smile. She gestured to Fu Jin, signaling to pause recording.
Fu Jin finally felt relevant again, using his rich broadcasting voice: “Viewers, due to a guest’s inability to control their emotions, to ensure a better viewing experience, we’ve decided to pause recording and continue later.”
