After Transmigrating as a Tycoon’s Wife, My Thoughts Are Heard by the Whole Family

Chapter 66

As Sheng Wenyue spoke with forced politeness, Ji Fei finally couldn't help but take a closer look at what it meant to be a wolf in sheep's clothing.0

[He really does have the face of a cold, aloof idol and public heartthrob. Remember to maintain that pretentious air later, won't you?]0

Afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her smirk any longer, Ji Fei quickly nodded politely and retreated to her position, putting on an innocent expression of relief.0

Meanwhile, Gao Hao beside her had completely turned to stone, wondering if his artist had accidentally stirred up earth-shattering trouble.0

It was... accidental, right?0

Could this still be fixed?0

Let me think, let me think quickly. If I can't come up with something, this will be the biggest scandal of my career as a manager!!!!0

Qin Zhao cast a sympathetic glance at Gao Hao, but his heart had already started trembling. Soon... any moment now...0

Everyone in their group unconsciously looked towards the mirror's reflection, not wanting to miss a single detail.0

The people from other groups did the same, with some even deliberately moving the partitions.0

At this moment, although Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani were displeased with Ji Fei's reaction, they had decided to let the matter go and were about to continue their conversation with the director and producer in front of them.0

However, they noticed that the two people before them had suddenly adopted constipated expressions, their eyes darting around nervously, avoiding eye contact.0

Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani: ??0

"Um... I just remembered I have something to arrange," the director fled.0

"I just remembered... I haven't arranged for the director yet," the producer fled.0

Left behind, the two wore bewildered expressions. Turning their heads, they saw that all the members of their team, except for their manager, had anxiously lowered their heads, pretending to be deaf and busying themselves with their tasks.0

The manager, on the other hand, had turned pale, his mouth opening and closing, his gaze darting between Wang Jiani and Sheng Wenyue, almost sparking with intensity.0

Although the manager indeed disliked the often-disagreeable Mrs. Sheng and wished to find a more commercially valuable partner for the idol, and would be happy to match Wang Jiani with Sheng Wenyue, confident in his ability to market them successfully and elevate Sheng Wenyue's career further.0

But who could have imagined that the story of the mistress battling the original wife, as told by that little girl just now, was about these two!0

Wasn't it always Ruan Jia being aggressive and Wang Jiani being weak and bullied?0

No, now wasn't the time to worry about that. The problem was that everyone had heard it!0

Moreover, Wang Jiani and Sheng Wenyue had practically confirmed it themselves just now!0

Doing things behind closed doors was one thing, but openly admitting it was a completely different situation.0

The manager was already drenched in sweat.0

"What's wrong?" Wang Jiani suddenly felt a wave of unease.0

The manager snapped out of his daze, realizing he couldn't continue to embarrass himself. He quickly pulled the two aside, "There's something we need to discuss... outside..."0

As the door closed behind them, an eerie silence fell over the makeup room, until a woman's voice from outside lost control and screamed: "What!"0

Someone inside couldn't help but exclaim "Holy shit!" followed by a "Pfft!"0

Then, like a plague of locusts, the whispers turned into loud chatter, with many people casting admiring glances at Ji Fei.0

They couldn't possibly think Ji Fei had done this intentionally from start to finish, but they felt that such a coincidence was terribly unlucky for Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani.0

Thank goodness for Ji Fei! She had given them such juicy gossip, it couldn't be more exciting!0

In all their years in the entertainment industry, they had never seen such a dramatic twist.0

Many people picked up their phones. Even before the show had started filming, explosive news was already circulating within the industry.0

It quickly dominated various gossip platforms, and although the idol's PR team quickly discovered and deleted the news, it had already made a significant impact.0

The previously 'nostalgic' public square gradually saw different voices emerging in the CP super topics, and anti-fans began to form.0

Others were simply enjoying the show.0

Only Gao Hao's side looked grim, his face losing a shade of color as he pointed a trembling finger at Ji Fei.0

"I really didn't do it on purpose, look at my eyes, see how sincere they are."0

Ji Fei blinked her large, innocent eyes.0

[Sigh, if only Sheng Wenyue hadn't been so focused on Wang Jiani, rushing to her defense, and if Wang Jiani hadn't had the malicious intent of tattling on her in front of Sheng Wenyue, there might have been a way out. If they hadn't admitted it, people might not have made the connection. You reap what you sow, I suppose.]0

Qin Zhao coughed, still feeling the need to protect his own.0

Grabbing the trembling Gao Hao, he said, "This can't be blamed on Ji Fei. How could she have known? They identified themselves with the story. That's called digging their own grave."0

And he had to admit, it was damn entertaining to watch this drama unfold.0

Oh right, he should share this with his family.0

Ji Fei gave Qin Zhao an approving look.0

The commotion in the makeup room naturally spread to the corridor.0

Hearing the noise, Wang Jiani began to sob and cry.0

"It's not like that. How could Ji Fei make up such a story? It's not like that at all."0

Sheng Wenyue recalled what had just happened, feeling a tingling sensation on his face as if it had been scraped by a steel knife. It wasn't hard to imagine how the people inside were mocking them, leaving him looking dazed and shaken.0

"Jiani, didn't you say you only met Ruan Jia later, when she discovered the stopped card and then beat you out of anger?"0

Ji Fei wasn't close to any of them and had no grudges, so how could she fabricate a story out of thin air? Even if Sheng Wenyue's head wasn't on straight, he could sense something was off.0

Wang Jiani's sobs stopped for a moment, then she burst into tears again.0

"Brother, you don't believe me? How could I do such a thing? I was in a bad mood that day, my ex-husband had called to harass me again, and I was afraid I'd relapse if I stayed alone, so I went out for a walk. When I saw a pretty dress, I wanted to share it with you."0

"What? Your ex-husband contacted you again... why didn't you tell me!" Upon hearing this, Sheng Wenyue remembered how battered Wang Jiani had looked when he first met her, a victim of domestic violence.0

It was all their fault. Looking at the tear-stained Wang Jiani, Sheng Wenyue felt a pang of guilt and distress.0

Wang Jiani shook her head vigorously, "I've already caused so much trouble for you and your wife, making you argue constantly because of me. I didn't want to bother you. If someone had photographed us again, who knows how your wife would have reacted. I really don't understand why Ji Fei would target me like this. Could it be... does your wife know her?"0

Sheng Wenyue's brows furrowed, and he immediately took out his phone to find a number, but it took him a while to locate it.0

He paused, realizing it had been a long time since Ruan Jia had called him.0

It didn't occur to him that he hadn't called Ruan Jia in a long time either.0

The phone rang for a long time, and Sheng Wenyue was growing impatient by the time the other party answered.0

The first sound was a retching noise, but Sheng Wenyue thought it was static or that he had misheard. He immediately started questioning, "Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"0

The other end was quiet for a moment before a somewhat hoarse voice replied, "What? Calling to explain that you spent last night innocently as well?"0

Sheng Wenyue choked, remembering that this issue was still unresolved.0

Feeling embarrassed and angry, he said, "Enough! How many times do I have to explain this kind of thing? I don't have time to argue with you now. I have something else to ask you. Do you know Ji Fei?"0

Ruan Jia was taken aback. She did know Ji Fei.0

It was because after Qin Yan had sent her back to the hospital that day, she had inquired, and Qin Yan had introduced her as her sister-in-law, who would also be participating in the show.0

Sensing the unusual pause on the other end.0

"So you do know her!" Sheng Wenyue's voice grew deeper, as if suppressing something.0

"So what if I do?" Ruan Jia was confused.0

Meanwhile, Wang Jiani breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt very angry. They did know each other, so that day was intentionally targeting her.0

"Ruan Jia, did you not take my last warning seriously at all? You... you're beyond help."0

Hearing the genuinely angry voice, Ruan Jia frowned, "What are you talking about?"0

"The dress!" Sheng Wenyue said.0

Ruan Jia was stunned, "Huh, you know about that? And you still..."0

"Ruan Jia, if there's a next time, we're getting a divorce. I can't communicate with you anymore."0

Once again, it was Sheng Wenyue who hung up first.0

Ruan Jia stared blankly at her phone, unable to understand what had just happened. Then she felt another wave of nausea.0
