Chapter 52: Large Scale Face Slapping 3
Xiang Yi: “...”
Was zaizai* wronged?
The next moment, she pulled out a piece of candy from her pocket and gently said, “Be good. Don’t cry.”
The several audience members in the stream: ???
Li Jianyu and Ah Nan: ???
The Yan father and son, who were still sucking on the chicken bones: ???
‘Woman, you are in dangerous territory here!’
‘Are you trying to coax Shi Yingdi like a child?!!!’
Unfortunately—
Shi Sui’s peach blossom eyes fell on the palm of Xiang Yi’s hands. The girl was small and had small hands that were soft and fair with clear palm prints. Lying quietly on it was a piece of white chocolate with strawberry filling.
“For me?”
Xiang Yi’s expression was stiff. Sh*t. She had promised Ah Nan to keep her distance from him....
But she was used to coaxing people and couldn’t control her own movements, or her mouth for that matter.
The deed was done, and it would seem hypocritical to deny it at this moment. “This tastes really good, try it. Maybe you’ll feel better.”
In the deathly silence, there was the sound of a ‘tear’. Xiang Yi wanted to stick the last nail in the coffin and coax her zaizai to the end. She had ripped open the candy wrapper...
The audience: !!!
‘Woman, don’t you think your actions are a little too rehearsed?!’
Shi Sui paused for a moment then received the candy. He bit into it lightly. The sweet and sour strawberry blended with the rich chocolate and bloomed at the tip of his tongue.
He curled his lips. “Mhm. It is pretty good.”
The man smiled casually, bringing his surroundings to life.
It turns out that some people on this planet need not fight for the center position.
Because regardless of where Shi Sui was, there the spotlight would be.
Inside the stream, Shi Sui’s fans, the Shisui sisters, were about to go crazy.
—[Of course! The Vase Fairy is trying to seduce our gege!]
—[Ah shibal! Xiang Yi is such a deceptive woman; she’s too skilled. Why doesn’t she just publish a seductress guide?]
— [QQ our Shi Sui zaizai is too easily fooled. He looks so happy with just one piece of candy. Your mommy won’t allow it!]
Yan Zhenhua felt the atmosphere had become a bit pink and bubbly and coughed abruptly. Taking the lead, he said, “Xiang Yi ah, do you have any talents?”
Ah Nan’s world turned dark for a moment.
‘Director Yan, Director Yan, are you trying to save the scene or destroy it?!’
‘You, sir, probably have never seen Xiang Yi’s acting skills or her dramas. It literally burns your eyes. So what if she wasn’t talented? She didn’t even bother to read over the script; she just counted 1234 and waited for her voice to be dubbed.’
Later, she went the variety show star route. She didn’t know how to sing, how to dance, or how to respond to jokes; she would cry if she was even just a bit tired. If she was slightly unhappy, she’d cry; if she even felt slightly wronged, she would cry.
...It was a bit cruel to say she was a tumor to the industry, but this was indeed the situation.
He tugged on Li Jianyu’s sleeve, shaking both his hands in protest. He wanted to beg her to help him out, but instead he heard her say, “Does an instrument count? I know a little.”
Yan Zhenhua bellowed with laughter. “Of course.”
Xiang Yi did not linger and boldly walked off. “I’ll go grab it.”
After she left the room, Yan Zhenhua began to chat with the audience about an interesting story. “Didn’t Shi Sui film a TV series a while ago? Yes, the one that won him the Emperor Award. Of course, there was a banquet and a fighting plot that was a test of instrument playing skills. Most actors didn’t know how to play instruments, but if you want to create a realistic and beautiful performance, hehe... Do you see where I’m going with this?”
The audience eagerly interacted with him.
Yan Zhenhua: “When Xiang Yi finishes performing later, everyone, don’t forget to show your support. Let’s not hurt the little girl’s feelings!”
Yan Nai responded in a straightforward manner. “What if she sucks?”
Yan Zhenhua refrained from rolling his eyes. ‘Why did I give birth to such a blunt and honest son! When I was your age, I’d written about half a meter worth of love letters to your mom already!’

* Zaizai is an alternative term for baby, but in an endearing way which Xiang Yi had adapted for Shi Sui
