A Substitute Bride With Multiple Identities
Chapter 317: Stay Away from Her

Chapter 317: Chapter 317: Stay Away from Her

The arrival of Qin Manxiang heated up the discussion in the live chat even more.

[Who is this person with such a grand entrance?]

[Is she a celebrity or an ordinary person? With that outfit, she doesn’t look like she’s here for a survival reality show; it’s more like she’s here for the red carpet.]

[The person above, I just went and checked. This sister is the young miss of Jinding Entertainment. If she’s here for a variety show, she’s most likely aiming for Qi Zeyi.]

[Damn! Qin Manxiang hasn’t given up on Qi Zeyi yet?]

A young man walked into the resting room doorway once again.

The youth wore an orange-yellow T-shirt and jeans, his features handsome and a pair of small tiger teeth gleamed when he smiled, adorable and full of energy, "Hello to all the seniors, my name is Yan Qi."

Su Qi opened his eyes indifferently and gave him a glance but didn’t speak.

Two ordinary participants stood up and greeted Yan Qi, "Hello, Teacher Yan."

"No need to call me teacher. Just call me Yan Qi," Yan Qi responded warmly with a smile and shook hands with them.

Then, with a face full of surprise, he quickly walked up to Su Qi and said with a beaming smile, "Teacher Su, you’re here too."

Su Qi hummed coldly and then did not pay any more attention to Yan Qi.

Yan Qi didn’t mind and went to greet Qin Manxiang.

Yan Qi was a singer who had debuted in the same period as Su Qi.

But at that time, Su Qi had overshadowed him completely, leading to Yan Qi having the lowest popularity of any star who debuted in the same period.

His album sales were also dismal until he later found a wealthy patroness who took a liking to him, and he was slowly promoted.

During this climb, Yan Qi didn’t hesitate to beg the wealthy patroness to suppress Su Qi. He released various true and false scandals about Su Qi, causing Su Qi’s reputation to plummet.

Whenever he released information tarnishing Su Qi’s reputation, he would buy off marketing accounts to release videos showcasing himself helping others, to gradually attract Su Qi’s fans over to himself.

Even after pushing Su Qi down to his current state with no gigs, Yan Qi still did not dare to let up.

He was truly scared of the days when he was overshadowed by Su Qi.

This reality show was also something that Yan Qi orchestrated, urging Su Qi to participate.

He had to ensure Su Qi’s complete downfall in this show.

A few minutes later, pulling his luggage, Qi Zeyi also hurriedly arrived.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he apologized, "Sorry, there was a bit of a traffic jam on the way and I’m a little late."

All the guests in the resting room stood up and went forward to greet Qi Zeyi.

Qin Manxiang squeezed to the front and looked at him with playful reproach, "I told you to come with me. Look at you, almost late."

Qi Zeyi subtly furrowed his brow and put some distance between himself and Qin Manxiang.

Qin Manxiang frowned unhappily but, due to the public setting, did not outright grab him.

Yan Qi stepped forward with a joyous smile to greet Qi Zeyi, "Emperor Qi, long time no see. Now that you’re here, I guess almost all the guests have arrived?"

"Two ordinary participants are still missing," said a staff member from behind the camera.

Qin Manxiang crossed her arms and, upon hearing that, rolled her eyes and huffed, "They’re already five minutes late. I really want to see which two ordinary folks have bigger clout than my family’s Zeyi!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than the door to the resting room was pushed open from the outside.

Shen Yanhe walked in at an unhurried pace.

The staff member focused the camera on her, giving her a close-up.

She was bare-faced, her skin delicate and fair, so flawless that not even pores were visible under the high-definition lens.

Her features were refined, her appearance stunning, her neck graceful and beautiful, with a touch of idleness in her brow and eyes, and her natural cat-like eyes were like the finest glaze.

Even dressed in casual sportswear, she couldn’t hide her exceptional poise.

The person following her, Song Shiwei, was even more strikingly beautiful, with natural peach-blossom eyes gently curved, wearing an apologetic smile.

Their appearance seemed to brighten the entire resting room.

Yan Qi stared straight at Shen Yanhe, his eyes flashing with amazement.

Su Qi, just opening his eyes, widened them in disbelief and rubbed them repeatedly.

Was he hallucinating because he was overtired?

Could he actually be seeing the mastermind?

The god-tier player is actually participating in this variety show?

Qin Manxiang’s face changed suddenly, and she instinctively turned her head to look at Qi Zeyi.

Seeing Qi Zeyi staring at Shen Yanhe with a blank expression, her hand hanging by her side clenched into a fist, her face twisted momentarily, almost overwhelmed by jealousy.

The barrage in the live stream room halted for a moment, then exploded.

[Holy shit! A celestial beauty! I’ve seen a celestial beauty!]

[Ahhhh! I was just saying, where did the director find such a clueless nobody, and now I look, I’m sorry, the clueless one is me.]

[I declare, these two sisters are my new wives now, wifey, kiss kiss.]

[Three minutes, I want the information of these two girls!]

Most people nowadays are obsessed with looks, and with Shen Yanhe and Song Shiwei’s exceptional appearance, even as unknowns, they quickly attracted a bunch of fans for their looks.

"I’m sorry," Song Shiwei said apologetically to the guests in the lounge, "There was a bit of a traffic jam on the road, so I’m a little late."

Shen Yanhe noticed the gazes on her and swept a glance across the people in the lounge without a trace.

Her gaze lingered on Su Qi for a moment, feeling surprised.

Su Qi is also participating in this variety show?

What a coincidence.

Yan Qi recovered from his amazement, his gaze reluctantly swept over Shen Yanhe’s face, and he chuckled, "No problem, no problem, Qi Zeyi also got stuck in traffic just now."

Qi Zeyi came to his senses, repressed the surprise in his eyes, and hummed indifferently.

Shen Yanhe looked at him when he spoke, then shifted her gaze away.

After the guests exchanged pleasantries and got acquainted,

It was then that a staff member spoke up, "Alright, now that all the guests have arrived, please take your luggage and board the plane to the deserted island."

The group set off to board the plane.

While lifting the suitcase to board the plane, Yan Qi somehow came to Shen Yanhe’s side, smiling and reaching out to her suitcase, "Let me carry it for you, as a gentleman, I shouldn’t watch a lady struggle."

Shen Yanhe’s eyebrows knitted slightly and she pulled her suitcase back, "No... "

Before his hand could touch the suitcase, a large hand reached out from the side and quickly took it from Shen Yanhe’s grasp.

Shen Yanhe paused mid-sentence and turned to look beside her.

Su Qi stood rigidly by Shen Yanhe’s side, his gaze unsure yet intense as he glanced at her, still appearing indifferent, "I’ll do it."

Shen Yanhe was silent for a few seconds, then hummed faintly, "Thank you."

Having his gesture of goodwill intercepted, Yan Qi’s eyes flickered with a dark shadow, but his face soon lifted into a sunny smile, "Then I’ll leave it to Brother Su."

"Miss Shen, let’s go inside," Yan Qi said, extending his hand to grasp Shen Yanhe’s wrist.

His public persona was that of a sunny, cheerful boy.

Being rather carefree, even if he made some physical contact with girls unintentionally, his fans would think it was an accident.

Su Qi saw Yan Qi’s movement, his expression darkened slightly, he was just about to step forward to shield Shen Yanhe.

A glint of coldness flashed in Shen Yanhe’s eyes as she raised her hand and fiercely slapped away Yan Qi’s hand.

Her strength was strong, and she struck both fiercely and heavily.

Yan Qi, in pain, instantly drew back his hand and sharply inhaled, his expression somewhat twisted.

"I’m sorry," Shen Yanhe said with a touch of apology on her face, "I don’t like others getting close to me, I thought you were going to hold my hand just now, so I overreacted, sorry."

This sound drew the attention of the guests who were placing their luggage on the plane.

Song Shiwei stood up from her seat to look at her, "Yanyan, what happened?"

Yan Qi’s face changed slightly, then forced a smile, "N-, nothing."

"It’s nothing, miss," Yan Qi, enduring the pain, smiled at Shen Yanhe, "Please go take your seat."

Shen Yanhe nodded slightly and walked towards Song Shiwei’s direction.

Su Qi silently carried the suitcase behind her, pausing as he passed by Yan Qi, and said in a lowered voice, neither warm nor cold, "Yan Qi, stay away from her."

"She’s not someone you can get involved with."
