Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

Chapter 151 The Beauty Tactic Works Well

Upon receiving Gu Chen's reply, Wu Zhao felt something was amiss, but Huo Jinchen in front of her was already going crazy in the lounge.

Xiaoxiao explained to her somewhat embarrassedly, "Our brother Jinchen sometimes acts like this, please don't mind... He just becomes less intelligent when he encounters things related to Sister Linlang."

"I can see that. The Huo family... might have some members who are obsessed with romance." Wu Zhao sighed, rubbing his forehead.

From Huo Tingchen to Huo Jinchen, they all seem a bit dim-witted when it comes to love and romance.

Then think about Gu Chen's mother, Madam Lan... Could it really be that they are from the same lineage?

I hope Gu Chen didn't inherit this trait... Wu Zhao thought to herself.

"Is Linlang going to the hospital now? Should I go with her? Oh right, she's pregnant, so the show definitely can't be filmed like this anymore. I need to go talk to the director—" Coming back to his senses, Huo Jinchen clapped his hands and was about to leave.

Xiaoxiao, standing behind him, couldn't help but tug at the hem of his costume, emphasizing, "Brother Jinchen, calm down! If your affair with Sister Linlang is exposed, you won't be able to stay in the entertainment industry! Didn't you say that? Right now, your most important thing is to explain what you just blurted out about Linlang!"

As she spoke, she opened her phone and shoved it right in front of Huo Jinchen's face.

Huo Jinchen couldn't help but flinch when he saw the explosive trending topic. His composure returned, and he asked, "Um, can't I just pretend I was startled and that's why I screamed..."

"Do you think your fans are idiots?" Xiaoxiao couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Anyway, if you can get Yao Ge to agree with what you said when he comes over in a while, then you'll pass the test."

Tang Yao is Huo Jinchen's agent, a very strict and ruthless person. He is also the person Huo Jinchen fears most; just thinking about this "big devil" makes him feel a chill run down his spine.

Seeing that he was getting nervous again, Wu Zhao couldn't help but remind him, "Ye Linlang is already preparing to return to the capital. All you need to do now is reassure your fans. However, quite a few people in my live stream probably heard you calling her name. You should discuss it properly when your manager arrives."

She wasn't planning to stay here any longer, since the production crew was waiting for her.

The live stream room can't be kept closed forever.

Huo Jinchen then turned serious and looked at her, asking, "You, how did you know that Linlang and I are already married...? And how do you know me? I don't think I've ever seen you before?"

“Once you return to the capital and confirm that your wife is alright, let’s come to the Gu family’s villa together.” Wu Zhao didn’t answer his question, but instead instructed him, “Don’t tell anyone about your wife’s pregnancy except your eldest brother, Huo Tingchen. I mean, don’t tell your family, understand?”

Wu Zhao's expression was somewhat serious as he emphasized, "If you don't want your wife and the child who is still alive to die together, don't forget what I said."

Although Huo Jinchen's appearance suggests that he is not in any immediate danger, it is closely related to Ye Linlang.

If things go wrong, you'll either get divorced and end up alone, or your wife will die and you'll be buried with her...

Huo Jinchen was taken aback. "You...know my older brother?"

Unfortunately, Wu Zhao had already turned around and gone out to find his cameraman, ignoring the somewhat shocked Huo Jinchen behind him.

Xiao Xiao, who was beside him, remembered what Wu Zhao said. She closed the door and said, "Brother Jinchen, I think you should be more careful. After all, you know your family's situation. Her reminder is correct. When Brother Yao comes later, we can discuss it with him."

"How could you believe what she said after only spending a short time with her?" Huo Jinchen muttered, but did not refute her words.

Xiaoxiao was sent by Huo Tingchen, Huo's older brother, to help him with his affairs, and he trusted her judgment.

"When we get back to the capital, Brother Jinchen can't get too cocky," Xiaoxiao said with some concern. "We don't know when President Huo will be back; I hope nothing bad happens..."

Wu Zhao found his cameraman through director Su Yan.

At that moment, the director was watching the recording with great interest using the program's camera. When he saw Wu Zhao walking over, he asked curiously, "You've trained before?"

“No.” Wu Zhao shook his head. “I’m not interested in swords and spears.”

Su Yan didn't believe it: "How can you be so fast if you haven't practiced? The camera almost missed you."

Wu Zhao chuckled softly as he turned the ring on his hand.

She was originally standing in front of Su Yan, but before her laughter had even finished, a figure suddenly appeared behind Su Yan.

"Damn—!" Su Yan exclaimed in surprise, "What kind of kung fu is this?"

The cameraman standing next to Wu Zhao couldn't help but say, "Director Su, is it possible that this isn't kung fu but some kind of mystical art?"

Mystic arts? Su Yan's eyes lit up, and then the person next to him whispered a few words in his ear, seemingly knowing Wu Zhao.

After hearing what the assistant said, Su Yan looked at Wu Zhao with even more surprise and delight: "I didn't expect you to be a well-known sorcerer, and also Gu Chen's wife?"

Wu Zhao: ...

Hearing those two words from someone else's mouth now made her feel uncomfortable.

"Would you be interested in making a cameo appearance in my production? I have a role that would be perfect for you!" Su Yan couldn't help but ask.

The cameraman standing to the side couldn't help but gasp. This was an invitation from a super director!

If Shen Jiaojiao knew that the director she could never work with wanted Wu Zhao to participate in her work, wouldn't she be furious?

Fortunately, she had some illness and left temporarily.

Unexpectedly, Wu Zhao refused without hesitation: "I'm not interested. But if you need face reading, fortune telling, or to change your luck, you can come to me."

Su Yan laughed. Although he hadn't expected to be rejected, he thought Wu Zhao was a very interesting person.

Seeing that the cameraman hesitated to speak, Wu Zhao waved his hand dismissively: "Then I'll take my leave. If you need anything, just come to the Gu family's villa."

She walked away with a graceful air, her steps somewhat hurried, as if afraid of being invited again.

This left Su Yan somewhat dumbfounded.

After leaving the film set, Wu Zhao asked the cameraman to turn on the live stream. Looking at the concerned inquiries in the comments, she replied to a few.

[Ahhh, finally they're streaming again! Are you alright, boss? Oh, and is Ye Linlang alright too?]

[Is our brother alright? He shouted so loudly just now, it was terrifying!]

[Tsk tsk, they said they weren't related, but they're calling each other so intimately. He must have gone to the lounge to see her right away!]

"Hmm? I'm fine, and Ye Linlang is also alright, but she was probably a little frightened and is resting for now."

Looking at the comments, Wu Zhao thought for a moment and then said, "Huo Jinchen? He didn't go to find Ye Linlang. He was probably scared too, right? After all, he was screaming so hard his voice cracked. It's probably the first time he's seen something like this before, isn't it?"

"Hmm? This is the first time I've met him. I've met his older brother more often before, and he doesn't see Gu Chen very often."

With a slight chuckle, Wu Zhao continued, "Perhaps they're afraid of Gu Chen? I think there's no one who isn't afraid of him."

She walked back the way she came, unaware of the figure approaching from behind.

"I'm not familiar with Huo Jinchen, and I don't know him very well."

The footsteps behind her gradually approached, followed by a cold voice answering the comments.

"Huo Jinchen has been a crybaby since he was a child. He would cry for three days if his pet fish died. So he was naturally frightened when he saw someone fall from the sky."

Gu Chen appeared in the frame, coldly answering the malicious questions in the comments.

Seeing that he had almost revealed all of Huo Jinchen's secrets, Wu Zhao couldn't help but twitch his lips.

This really is my own uncle...

However, netizens' focus gradually shifted from the secret relationship between Huo Jinchen and Ye Linlang to the fact that everything Huo Jinchen raised as a child died, leading him to believe he was a messenger of death.

...What an amazing way to divert attention!

Just as Wu Zhao was speechless, Gu Chen, who was looking at the comments, turned his gaze to her.

Those indifferent eyes softened suddenly when they met Wu Zhao's gaze, like a drop of water falling into a pool of clear water.

Ripples spread across the surface.

This also stirred up a ripple in Wu Zhao's heart.

Her ears couldn't help but burn.

Has Gu Chen always been this good-looking...?
