After the True Heiress Travels Back
Chapter 297: Are You Moved?

Chapter 297: Chapter 297: Are You Moved?

Because of Director Wang’s movie, the true and fake daughters of the Shi Family were once again dragged out for public whipping.

What was different from before, was that previously when their affairs were discussed, nobody knew that Shi Yaoguang and Quan Jinbei were married.

This time, however, someone exposed the fact that they were in a hidden marriage.

The person who hinted at bringing all this to light was arranged by Shi Yiqing.

Knowing she couldn’t prevent her identity from being revealed, she could only make her move from another angle.

Being single is a hot commodity in the entertainment industry, followed by the image of being unmarried.

In any case, Shi Yaoguang, being married, directly lowered her own value.

What Shi Yiqing wanted was not only to diminish her popularity.

She wanted public scrutiny.

In her view, Shi Yaoguang was growing increasingly reckless.

She could shamelessly mess around outside just because of the "flesh" in her belly.

Quan Jinbei was wary of her, but still let her do as she pleased.

Quan Jinbei could endure for the sake of the child, but Shi Yiqing couldn’t.

She wanted everyone to know that Shi Yaoguang was a married woman.

Not only that, she was also fooling around behind her husband’s back.

When the time came, she would face the condemnation of the entire internet.

Just thinking about the finger-pointing Shi Yaoguang was about to face made Shi Yiqing overjoyed.

...

Shi Yaoguang was equally pleased to see this unfold, since her marriage to Quan Jinbei wasn’t a secret anymore.

If that was the case, there was no point in being secretive.

She might as well fulfill Shi Yiqing’s wish.

Unfortunately, the fates were not kind, and even though the news of Shi Yaoguang’s marriage came out, the netizens did not express any dissatisfaction.

"Isn’t it said that netizens really hate when celebrity marriages are revealed? Why is there no reaction from the netizens..."

Shi Yiqing was so angry that she stomped her foot, but she quickly came up with a plan.

If she couldn’t get the netizens to smear Shi Yaoguang on their own, couldn’t she still lead the narrative?

Once the trend was set, she didn’t believe Shi Yaoguang could remain unharmed.

Soon, a hashtag appeared at the end of the trending searches on Weibo.

#ShiYaoguangPregnantBeforeMarriage#

...

"Pregnant before marriage?"

When Wang Zhehai saw the trending topic, he immediately went to find Shi Yaoguang.

Shi Yaoguang looked at Wang Zhehai’s anxious face with a expression of helplessness.

Touching her stomach, she turned in front of him, resignedly, "Director Wang, do I look like someone who is pregnant before marriage?"

"This..." Wang Zhehai pursed his lips, looking at her slender waist that was too frail to bear a child, unable to utter the belief that she could be pregnant.

With her figure, pregnant? Impossible!

Wang Zhehai was certain Shi Yaoguang couldn’t be pregnant, but couldn’t help being curious, "If you aren’t pregnant, then why does the trending search say you are pregnant before marriage?"

"Trending search?" Shi Yaoguang hadn’t really paid attention to the trending searches, so she wasn’t aware of this new development.

Seeing that Shi Yaoguang was unaware, Wang Zhehai quickly told her, "You don’t know yet? Go check it out."

As he spoke, he ruffled his not-so-thick hair, his tone filled with resignation, "Don’t you have a public relations team? It stands to reason that as Mrs. Quan, your treatment shouldn’t be so shoddy..."

Shi Yaoguang waited for him to finish before she spoke indifferently: "I was pulled into the entertainment industry by you, I don’t have a management team at all."

Wang Zhehai, realizing, smacked his forehead, "I actually forgot about that."

Saying so, he chuckled, "Since you don’t have an agent anyway, how about I introduce one to you?"

"You’re introducing someone to me?"

"Yep yep." Wang Zhehai nodded vigorously, "Let me tell you, he’s really great, good-looking, nice voice, and can even satisfy a voice fetish. If he didn’t want to avoid the public eye, he’d have been a star with ease."

Shi Yaoguang blinked, seemingly a bit tempted, "Is the person really as good as you say?"

"Isn’t that obvious? Anyone I introduce to you has to be the best."

As Wang Zhehai spoke, he rubbed his hands together and asked with a smile, "So, are you intrigued?"

Just as Shi Yaoguang was about to speak, a low, godlike voice carrying the bite of frost cut in.

"Are you intrigued?"

Hearing the man’s overtly threatening tone, Shi Yaoguang coughed lightly, "Not intrigued."

"Really not intrigued?"

As the man’s voice died away, a figure wearing a mask appeared in their line of sight.

Wang Zhehai saw him and involuntarily shivered.

He...

For a moment, felt a killing intent!

When Shi Yaoguang joined the crew, apart from polite formalities, she only brought this one "fierce and formidable" male assistant.

Why call him fierce and formidable? It wasn’t because he looked terrifying—after all... he always wore a mask, and Wang Zhehai didn’t even know what his face looked like.

It was his imposing aura that was too cold and unyielding.

If this weren’t a law-abiding society, Wang Zhehai would believe him to be a hitman.

He even had the thought of pulling him into the cast.

To be honest, in terms of image, the man in the mask fitted the male lead even better than Ming Yan.

But...

This man was unexpectedly indifferent to fame and profit, directly ignoring his invitation.

Wang Zhehai felt quite regretful about this.

"Director Wang." As Wang Zhehai was wallowing in his own pity, the man called out to him.

Wang Zhehai subconsciously trembled and looked at the man with a hint of caution, "Wh-what is it?"

The man snorted lightly, "A good-looking man with a nice voice, just short of making his own debut. Are you introducing her to an agent, or a man?"

Wang Zhehai nearly choked on his own saliva, "Cough cough, what are you talking about? Do I look like someone without integrity?"

The masked man scoffed coldly, "It seems Director Wang has a lack of self-awareness."

"Not... not really, right?" Wang Zhehai wiped the nervous sweat from his forehead, unable to help thinking to himself that this man hadn’t really done anything.

They all had two eyes, a nose, and a mouth...

So why did he feel inexplicably nervous?

The man swept a cold gaze over Wang Zhehai’s uneasy expression, snorted lightly, and then looked at Shi Yaoguang, "What about you, are you intrigued?"

Shi Yaoguang firmly shook her head, making her stance clear, "Not intrigued, I’m not intrigued at all."

"No matter if he’s a deity descending to earth, I absolutely won’t be intrigued!"

Only then did the man appear satisfied, and then provocatively looked at Wang Zhehai, "Did you hear that? Mrs. Quan says she’s not intrigued."

Wang Zhehai, hearing him emphasize the words "Mrs. Quan," belatedly realized what the man was upset about.

He slapped his thigh and hastened to explain: "Ah, you’ve misunderstood, the agent I wanted to introduce, gender female, prefers men."

As he said this, he cautiously glanced at the man and weakly added, "There’s no chance of anything beyond a professional relationship developing with Mrs. Quan, you can rest assured."

Looking at Shi Yaoguang, who was seriously explaining: "..."

The masked man, devoid of emotion: "..."

There seemed to be a hint of awkwardness in the air.

Wang Zhehai persisted, "Don’t worry about gender, why don’t you give it some thought?"
