Chapter 246 - Like A Cow

“It’s really been a long time—a year and three months, ” Fang Qingqian said with a smile.

“You remember it so clearly,” Zuo Qian teased.

The audience shrieked immediately. Song Chuyi only felt that his ears were about to go deaf from the shrieks of the fans behind him. He pulled a long face.

The beauty standards of people nowadays were really bad. How could a face that looked as pretty as a woman be so popular?

Fang Qingqian said with a smile, “Because after we recorded a program together for more than a month, I really couldn’t bear to part with Changqing, but thankfully, we still keep in touch through WeChat. We’re very good friends.”

Changqing also said sweetly through the microphone: “We’ve said we’ll be good friends for life.”

Song Chuyi couldn’t really listen on so he lowered his head and began playing on his phone.

However, he was quickly smacked by the head of Qing FC from behind. She was very angry. “Handsome lad, even if you’re very handsome, you cannot be so willful and play on your phone. If you’re caught on camera, others would think that our Qingqing’s hosting is so boring to the point that the audience would play on their phones.”

Song Chuyi was speechless for a while and could only hold onto his phone silently.

The program went on for around 40 to 50 minutes and the hosts and guests began playing games. One of the games was a drawing competition. The hosts chose an audience member to vote for the best drawing.

Song Chuyi was sitting in the first row and was easily picked.

The moment the spotlight shined on him, he quickly took off the horn light headband, stood up and went on stage. After he voted, Zuo Qian suddenly pulled him back and said with a smile to the audience, “To think we have such a handsome lad among our audience today. I saw that the sign he was holding just now had our Changqing’s name on it. You’re Changqing’s fan, right?”

A stiff smile was hanging on Changqing’s face as she watched the two of them. She felt like crying inside.

Is Teacher Zuo mad? He knew Song Chuyi’s identity very well, yet he still called Song Chuyi up on stage.

Song Chuyi nodded calmly.

“To think our Changqing has such a handsome supporter,” Zuo Qian said with a smile. “Just now, you voted for Changqing without even thinking the moment you came up. Was it because you think that she drew very well or simply because you like her?”

The microphone was pointed back at him again. Song Chuyi was finally not so calm. His face became slightly stiff and he only spoke after a while. “The latter.”

“Latter?” Zuo Qian understood. “Because you like her?”

He didn’t answer, only looking intensely at a certain someone.

A few thousand pairs of eyes watched the stage and Changqing’s face reddened in no time.

Is Song Chuchu mad? Looking at me like that in public—what if others find out?

The audience applauded and cheered loudly. Zuo Qian coughed softly. “Look at how you made our Changqing blush.”

“Teacher Zuo, aren’t you just jealous that he didn’t vote for you? You think he voted for me because he’s my fan?” Changqing changed the topic very quickly. “Actually, my drawing is better than yours.”

“You saw through me.” Zuo Qian laughed softly and said to Song Chuyi, “Thank you to this audience member.”

Song Chuyi nodded and finally returned to his seat with a burden off his mind.

The program recording lasted for a whole three hours.

When it ended, the fans downstage all crowded to the front to ask for autographs. Changqing only left with the rest to change backstage after her arm was tired from signing.

After changing, Changqing came out and saw Song Chuyi sitting cross-legged in a chair with an entertainment magazine on his lap elegantly.

“Didn’t I tell you not to come?” Changqing licked her lips that had lipstick on.

“You’re afraid that I would come and see your Fang Qingqian?” Song Chuyi raised his eyelids and lowered his voice as he raised his brows. “When did you have a friend for life like that? Why did I not know?”

He emphasized “for life” on purpose to let her know how unhappy he was.

Changqing was a little speechless. Isn’t this man usually very smart? Can’t he tell it was all scripted? However, when she saw that he was unhappy, she suddenly didn’t want to tell him the reason. “We haven’t even been married for long; how would you know everything about me? Just like how I don’t know much about your matters.”

Song Chuchu frowned and stood up. Just as he was about to speak, Fang Qingqian also came out after changing. When he saw Song Chuyi, he was stunned for a few seconds before breaking out into a strange smile. “So you two know each other? Did the station make arrangements for him? Why wasn’t he included in the script?”

Script…

Song Chuyi’s brows twitched and he said lightly, “I’m her husband.”

Changqing stared at him. He would only say “boyfriend” previously. This time, he actually said “husband” and this was without her consent at all.

“Husband?” Fang Qingqian’s mouth dropped in shock. “Changqing, you’re married?”

“Er… that…” As Changqing was stammering, Song Chuyi already helped her answer. “We’ve been married for a while but we’ve yet to hold the banquet.”

“I see. Then congratulations to the two of you.” After Fang Qingqian said that, Deng Peiyi also came out from the changing room and happened to hear him. “Congratulations to who?”

“Big news, this gentleman here is actually Changqing’s husband.” Fang Qingqian told Deng Peiyi outright.

Deng Peiyi was as shocked as he was. In no time at all, the makeup artistes walked in subsequently. Hearing their discussion, they became subsequently more shocked, especially those who had been in contact with Changqing before. They were all chattering around Changqing.

“Changqing, really, how could you not tell us such big news? You even said he’s your boyfriend.”

“When did you get married? You’re too low-profile.”

“When do you plan to have the wedding banquet? You have to invite us.”

Mei Zong and Zuo Qian came in together after discussing something and they heard and saw everyone crowding and chattering around Changqing. The lighting technician saw the two of them and quickly said, “Teacher Zuo, you’ve been very close to Changqing. Did you already know that Changqing is married?”

“Changqing is married?” Zuo Qian suddenly felt the blood in his entire body freezing.

There was lots of noise around him but he only felt his mind going blank.

He had always thought Song Chuyi was just her boyfriend. He never would’ve thought that they had gotten married so quickly.

Truth be told, judging from Changqing’s character, he didn’t really believe that she would get married to someone in such a short time.

Regarding Changqing, he had already given up and chose to give her his blessings. After all, he had no chance, and in contrast with Fu Yu, he felt that Song Chuyi, who was from outside the industry, would be more suitable for Changqing.

However, when the news came, it still struck him like a thunderbolt in clear skies.

Other than him, Mei Zong also felt conflicted. He was still thinking that Yan Changqing was lucky to have found a young master from the Song Family. However, he thought Song Chuyi was just playing around and didn’t think they would really get married. It seemed like he was fated to be wary of Yan Changqing.

He quickly went up to congratulate Song Chuchu and said with a smile, “We were planning on having a supper gathering. Would you like to join us?”

“Sure.” Song Chuyi was feeling quite good at the moment. He smiled. “I’ll treat.”

“Mr. Song is so generous. Then let’s go to the city’s most expensive seafood shop tonight,” Zhu Jia, who was usually close to Changqing, said loudly.

“No problem,” Song Chuyi said with a smile.

However, Changqing felt the pinch. The most expensive seafood shop wasn’t the normal kind of pricey. On top of that, there were more than 10 people. This meal would cost her at least half her month’s salary.

Although the bill would definitely be paid by Song Chuyi, his wages were lower than hers now.

After setting the location, everyone made their way there. Changqing took Song Chuyi’s car. After getting into the car, she started to feel indignant. “Why did you tell everyone that we’re married? Don’t forget we’re still in the midst of a divorce.”

Song Chuyi wasn’t angry. Instead, he turned the steering wheel leisurely and said, “So… you’re not embarrassed to get a divorce with me? The people at the station just found out about the marriage and if news of the divorce breaks out suddenly, what do you think they would think?”

Changqing was depressed. Although everyone got along well, they would still like to watch the drama and feel jealous among themselves privately.

Colleagues simply liked to compete among themselves. When they saw someone down on their luck, they would laugh at their misfortune, and when they see someone feeling blissful, they would look happy on the outside but would most definitely be secretly sour about it.

She could almost imagine how they would mock her if they were to find out about the divorce.

“You’re too scheming.” She looked disapprovingly at a certain someone.

“I couldn’t be bothered to use my schemes on others. I would only use them on you.” Song Chuyi glanced at her lightly. His deep eyes were brimming with laughter.

Changqing snorted as she turned her blushed face to look out the window.

This hateful man would only say all these hateful words to tease her for no reason.

However, she really didn’t expect Song Chuchu to wear a horn light headband tonight to watch the program. Thinking about this, she suddenly said with a smile, “Right, the horn light headband tonight looked pretty cute.”

Song Chuyi’s face froze. He braced himself and said, “I didn’t want to wear it; it was your fan club who made me wear it.”

Changqing understood. However, it was already a miracle that he didn’t remove something someone else forced him to wear. “I suggest you wear them more often; it’s really quite cute.”

Song Chuyi pressed his lips together tightly and said coldly, “Do you think it’s good for a grown man to be called cute?? That’s so gay.”

“Are you saying you’re gay?” Changqing asked without thinking.

“I wasn’t referring to me.” Song Chuyi was angry. “You should have a deep understanding of how manly I am in bed. I was referring to Fang Qingqian.”

“Fang Qingqian?” Changqing frowned. “He’s pretty tall and wasn’t he quite polite to you just now? Why are you calling him gay?”

Song Chuyi scoffed. “Just now during the program, you kept calling him cute and adorable and he became so shy. What is that if not gay? Simply a gay person full of pretense.”

“He didn’t offend you, right? What’s with the personal attack?” Changqing really felt that Song Chuchu was too much. “It was just for the program. The audience likes to see his adorable side.”

“Yeah, that’s why you were also smitten, looking at him being adorable,” Song Chuyi said expressionlessly.
