After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Chapter 128 I'm such a popular little girl

Gao Feibai, having grasped the situation, angrily retorted, "Is this something to be proud of?"

"Oh, what I mean is, don't fight." Ye Sanqing said with a half-smile, but her words were directed at Ye Siqing.

In just a few words, Ye Siqing sensed the implication that "I told you long ago you have no talent, but you still act tough, it's laughable."

Gao Feibai muttered, "We don't even need to fight... Who here is the most likely to start a fight?"

But he didn't dare let Ye Sanqing hear him, so he could only mutter under his breath.

"I wasn't playing around; I was discussing something very serious with him!" Ye Siqing felt she couldn't let her video be spread like this. Luckily, there was a live stream, so she could explain directly.

But... there's really not much to explain. It's not a real indecent video; it's just that the title is a bit misleading...

So the best approach is to get involved yourself, make a joke, and let it pass.

Unfortunately, Ye Siqing wasn't in the industry, and Cheng Yanye wasn't aware of it either. Mu Zhihong, however, took the opportunity to manipulate things and slightly increase Cheng Yanye's popularity.

"Oh, so serious, so serious that it takes several rolls to explain," Ye Jin'er teased her younger brother, not wanting to miss out on making things worse.

Who told him to get so close to Cheng Yanye? Now look what happened!

"...I'm serious, I...sigh!" Seeing that her explanations were fruitless, Ye Siqing simply gave up.

He often felt puzzled as to why he was the least eloquent person in the whole family.

Since it was impossible to release the specific content of their conversation on camera, he was even somewhat grateful to the person filming the video for kindly muting their voices and adding almost no blurring.

Pan Hongyu saved him from his embarrassment.

Pan Hongyu announced to the camera that she had decided to retire from the entertainment industry.

She was discussing this matter with her agency last night.

Fortunately, her contract was about to expire anyway, and her company wasn't very big, so she was considered a long-time employee. Plus, this was a family emergency...

It's a bit of a pity for her company, because it's rare for an actress like Pan Hongyu to have this much buzz these days.

However, based on humanitarian principles, it is really inconvenient to ask them to stay at this time.

In the end, it was a painless termination of the contract.

“I made this decision after careful consideration. First, I want to spend more time with my family,” Pan Hongyu glanced at Yin Xiangming and continued, “Second, I need to make up for some things for my brother. So I’m saying goodbye now. From now on, just consider me a family member who’s here to accompany you on your trip.”

The police issued a statement this morning, but since they are still investigating other people involved, they only explained the content of Pan Yongfu's surrender.

The comments section was filled with people who had seen the announcement and were discussing it with only a vague understanding.

[Make amends? Is it even useful to make amends now? Although it's better late than never, this is far too late.]

[It might not be referring to her son; I sense there's something more to her words.]

The wording of the report was also very short, which made me feel...

[Let's not talk about it. Just consider it a good thing that she wants to spend more time with her son to make up for what she missed before.]

I feel sorry for Xiaoming. If the play continues, I'll see if I can support him.

Meanwhile, another city issued a notice regarding Tong Wuyu's ex-boyfriend, who was punished for taking indecent photos without her consent.

However, no one connected this matter with the guests on the show.

Tong Wuyu had secretly observed this and thought to herself, "Maybe this will help that girl from back then recover."

Let's just consider it compensation for her stealing her boyfriend's money!

That said, some rational viewers knew there might be more to Pan Yongfu's story, so they stopped discussing it. Those who didn't know the details would ask questions, and the comments would be misled.

"Mom?" Yin Xiangming had no idea she would make this decision before she announced it, and he looked at Pan Hongyu with some surprise.

"Mingming, I'm sorry. It's Mom who's sorry." Pan Hongyu apologized to him again.

She noticed that Yin Xiangming wasn't in a good state and wanted to persuade him to cancel his upcoming play and take some time to rest.

But she remembered Ye Sanqing and the others' advice that she should let her son handle things himself as much as possible, so she didn't bring it up.

Yin Xiangming waved his hands repeatedly, "Mom, please don't say that anymore. You...you didn't do anything..."

He believes that the matter is in the past, and instead of trying to make amends, it's better to let it go and move on.

“It’s precisely because I haven’t done anything that I’m now going to do something,” Pan Hongyu said firmly.

"Alright." Yin Xiangming didn't continue.

Perhaps years ago, if Pan Hongyu could have put aside her work to be with him, he would have been very happy, but now... and he also knows very well that is impossible.

He really doesn't blame Pan Hongyu.

Pan Hongyu nodded, and then went back to pack.

Everyone dispersed, and Sheng Hanyu led Gong Yao and Pei Canxing out.

They continued dealing with the previous matter concerning chili peppers. Gong Yao happened to arrive, so Sheng Hanyu took her along to hear her opinion.

Seeing them leave, Gao Feibai felt that his biggest obstacle was gone, so he leaned closer to Mu Zimo and said, "Hey!"

Mu Zimo originally planned to completely ignore him and get through the day, but who knew that he would come closer in front of the camera.

"What do you want?" He frowned and looked at the other person.

After all, Tong Wuyu is hospitalized and unable to continue the show. If Mu Zimo is really her boyfriend, he should be with her right now.

But... since Tong Wuyu is no longer on the show, his promise to his uncle is considered fulfilled, so he can go wherever he wants.

As for what others think... he goes abroad as soon as he finishes the show, how can he be seen?

Gao Feibai had been winking and making faces for so long without getting the other party's attention, and he was already a little angry. Now, seeing Mu Zimo's seemingly impatient attitude, he became even angrier.

"Of course I have something to do. Is it convenient for you?"

"It's inconvenient." Mu Zimo knew exactly why he had come, and refused outright. He even glanced at the camera as he said this.

Gao Feibai was so anxious that he gritted his teeth, but he also knew that what the other party said made sense. It would be inconvenient to do anything with cameras following them.

Okay, they'll have time off-camera tonight anyway, so he can go find them then.

But the thought of changing locations tomorrow made him hesitate.

Or... should we just give up?

But how could Gao Feibai be willing to be humiliated by Ye Sanqing like this? After thinking about it, he felt that it was right not to give up until the very end.

While things seem to be at peace here on the surface, the situation at the hospital is quite different.

Ye Wanyin got her phone back; the production team had returned it to her ahead of time, since she was injured.

She decided to go online to see if there were any new messages, and the first thing she saw was a video of Cheng Yanye and Ye Siqing fighting...

Ye Wanyin was speechless to the point of wanting to laugh.

She knew the two had a minor argument yesterday, but she never expected that they would be filmed in such a ridiculous video while they were out...

Ye Wanyin certainly didn't think she was wrong; she only believed that Cheng Yanye had gone mad for no reason yesterday, since this wasn't the first or second time.

This video won't cause any negative impact anyway, so let it be.

It's still pretty embarrassing...

When Ye Wanyin saw that Cheng Yanye wasn't in her hospital room, she opened WeChat to reply to the messages, but the sheer volume of messages almost caused the app to crash.

"I'm such a popular little girl," Ye Wanyin thought.

She had contacted her agent and learned that although she was quite controversial, she was very popular and had received recognition. Ye Wanyin increasingly believed that she was very suitable for the entertainment industry.

She replied to a few more key messages before putting her phone away.

Cheng Yanye has disappeared; he's probably still fast asleep.

Last night, Cheng Yanye said with concern that he would stay with her at the hospital, but the hospital conditions here are too poor. Even though she was already in the best ward, they could only provide a simple extra bed.

When Ye Wanyin saw the troubled look on Cheng Yanye's face, she knew that he was starting to complain about the conditions again, so she generously told him to find another place to rest.

Mu Zhihong also tried to dissuade him, mainly because he was afraid that if he stayed, he might actually do something to Ye Wanyin. That wasn't important; what was important was that they might be photographed.

With the presence of the TV crew in the village, the management is relatively strict, and it would be too obvious for outsiders to enter the village, so things have always been peaceful.

But now that we're in the city, it's hard to say.

So Cheng Yanye and Mu Zhihong left to stay at a hotel, and even hired a female caregiver for Ye Wanyin in case she had any problems.

Ye Wanyin asked the caregiver to help her up. After washing up, she decided to go see Tong Wuyu.

Her injury is in her lower back, and it's just a soft tissue injury. Although it's not serious, it still hurts when she walks or does other movements.

Ye Wanyin walked over slowly. The hospital was very quiet, with the occasional sound of falling leaves coming from outside the window.

Tong Wuyu was sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

Unlike Ye Wanyin, her injury affected her bones, so it was better not to move her.

She also has a caregiver, so Mu Zhihong isn't stingy in this regard.

Tong Wuyu was playing mobile games out of sheer boredom.

There's no need to look at the news online anymore. Apart from knowing that the man deserved what he got, there doesn't seem to be any other valuable information today.

A piece of trash is trash even in its very existence; why bother taking photos secretly?

Ye Wanyin only mentioned him briefly, who knew he would actually take pictures secretly?

Well, what goes around comes around!

Tong Wuyu found the thought amusing, just as Ye Wanyin pushed open the door to her hospital room.

Seeing that she seemed to be in a good mood, Ye Wanyin paused for a moment, then knocked on the door that had been opened.

Tong Wuyu immediately stopped smiling when she saw her.

Ugh, I was just thinking of something happy...

She first asked the caregiver to leave the room, then said to Ye Wanyin, "You seem to be in the mood for a walk."

"I'm in a pretty good mood." Ye Wanyin smiled at her, sat down on the small sofa next to her, and casually picked up an apple from the fruit basket next to her and started playing with it.

"You feel better when you see I can't move, right? Well, it takes a lot of resources for you to feel good."

Tong Wuyu glanced around to make sure there were no fruit knives nearby before speaking.
