Chapter 73

The dialogue was so pointed that it instantly caused an uproar.There were cameras constantly focused on the waiting area, and Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani, sitting among the other teams, looked extremely displeased.

Were they deliberately being passive-aggressive towards them? Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

What was wrong with Qin Zhao and Ji Fei? How was this situation even related to them? Why did they keep picking on them?

Were they really not afraid of falling out completely and making a scene?

The other teams had varied expressions, taking on the attitude of spectators enjoying the drama.

After all, everyone wasn't stupid. The Best Actor team deliberately choosing to compete against the Top Idol team was clearly meant to teach them a lesson for their previous unrestrained comments.

Currently, all the public opinion was focused on Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani's situation. The performance just now was the truth they had previously declared they would reveal.

The entire internet must be discussing this story of true love prevailing, so whoever teamed up with the Best Actor would just become cannon fodder.

This live broadcast program was originally meant to boost their own popularity, so who would want to waste an episode being a background character?

However, they also felt that Qin Zhao and Ji Fei's approach wasn't wise.

If someone encroaches an inch, you shouldn't retaliate by going a mile.

Since it was inevitable that they couldn't divert attention, they shouldn't cause trouble and should just accept their bad luck.

But instead, they had to mock them at the beginning of the performance to vent their frustrations. Even if you say this short segment was scripted for the performance, it would still be attacked by netizens and fans.

Not only did they fail to grab attention, but they would also be criticized after it ends. It was simply asking for trouble.

Both the guests in the waiting area and the audience in the spectator area felt embarrassed for them.

Everyone had lost interest in the upcoming performance, as anyone could guess that Qin Zhao and Ji Fei would at most provoke a little at the beginning, then perform steadily afterwards. They were more curious about how the two teams would face each other after coming off stage.

Only Qin Chao's Father, Qin Chao's Mother, and Qin Rong were staring at the stage with sparkling eyes, their smiles harder to suppress than an AK-47.

At this point, the style of the stage changed, resembling a youth campus short drama, with Ji Fei and Qin Zhao playing the lead roles.

...

The two families were neighbors, growing up together, always by each other's side.

In elementary school, the boy brought breakfast for the girl every day. In middle school, he rode his bike to pick her up for school. In high school, they studied together, cried together, laughed together, and ran together. Their initial carefree companionship blossomed into youthful love, and the most important melody in their lives became each other.

One liked performing and entered the entertainment industry, while the other carried a camera around taking photos to submit to magazines.

The large screen at the back of the stage was divided into two parts. The left side showed the boy working hard in acting and finally receiving awards on stage.

The right side displayed various photographs - mountain ranges, seas, lakes, snow-covered plains, all showcasing the charm and vitality of nature, along with various awards and invitation letters sent back from magazines.

...

Ji Fei's acting was quite stiff, but it couldn't detract from how eye-catching this story was.

This turned out to be another childhood sweetheart story, but unlike the Best Actor's group where the original partner was one-sidedly obsessed with the actor, in the Top Idol group, it was a true childhood friendship blossoming into love, with no one clinging to the other, both developing well in their own ways.

These different story directions felt completely like a control group.

Everyone caught the scent of drama and immediately sat up straight, unable to believe how hard-headed Ji Fei and Qin Zhao were. They had underestimated them.

Were they planning to go all out in criticizing, riding the wave of attention?

My goodness, it's so exciting to witness this drama live! It seems like they're about to start a fight!

The online comments were even more explosive. Originally not expecting much from the performance and about to organize a campaign against Qin Zhao and Ji Fei, they were suddenly told that this was just the beginning!

This was like throwing acid in the eyes of their fans!

The program team monitoring the situation was stunned. This wasn't the same as the script they had submitted, and it wasn't how they had rehearsed either!

Suddenly faced with their own guests tearing down the house, they were just about to think of a way to salvage the situation when they heard that the backstage live streaming data had actually surpassed the Best Actor group in front, and was still rising rapidly.

Program team: !!! How many passersby have come in? Does everyone really love to join in on the excitement?

Quick-witted netizens had already started searching online, after all, there was no reason to specifically include the setting of a photographer, it might not be a coincidence.

As a result of the search, the first piece of iron-clad evidence in the feud between the Best Actor group and the Top Idol group emerged.

Those who saw the truth spread it quickly.

Who would have thought that the Best Actor's original partner was indeed once a photographer, and her works could be found online. They were exactly those published on the large screen on the stage.

Because it was a stage play story, usually some details would be fabricated, but no one expected the Top Idol group to be so bold as to directly use the works of someone else's wife, even the award information was real.

Moreover, observant people would notice that the upload dates of those photos were all seven years ago.

That meant that after Ruan Jia married Sheng Wenyue, she produced nothing more.

And in the Best Actor group's performance, they didn't mention at all that the original partner was once capable of taking such excellent photos, only showing how she crazily clung to and was obsessed with the Best Actor, as if she was a person without her own life, only blindly loving her husband, a mad woman without any charm.

This comparison made those who found the photos have a sinking feeling in their hearts. Following the principle that such a big doubt shouldn't be discovered by just one person, they began to spread it rapidly.

In the hospital room, Ruan Jia's gaze wasn't focused on the performance stage, but on that large screen. The photos on it were like countless fragments of light shining into Ruan Jia's eyes.

Gradually, they lit up her eyes.

The phone beside her suddenly lit up, someone who had seen the live broadcast must have sent her a message. She only saw that the lock screen wallpaper was a photo of Sheng Wenyue.

Actually, her initial wallpaper was the first aurora she had photographed.

That was the most satisfying photo she had taken after camping in the Arctic Circle for an entire month.

She used to be so full of fighting spirit... What happened to her? How did she become like this?

Ruan Jia suddenly stiffened, feeling as if her heart was about to split open. The lines from earlier echoed in her mind.

"A world-renowned photographer or him, which would you choose?"

At this moment, both Sheng Wenyue and Wang Jiani were trembling. Wang Jiani was angered by Ji Fei and Qin Zhao.

But Sheng Wenyue felt as if he had been hit hard in the chest with an iron hammer, a dull pain spreading.

Although the performance had exaggerated elements, what they portrayed was indeed his and Ruan Jia's past, especially those photos. He had an impression of them, although he couldn't remember completely, they should be Ruan Jia's.

After the dull pain came a sense of bewilderment. He suspected that Ruan Jia's refusal to back down these days was waiting for this moment. She must have been in contact with Qin Zhao and Ji Fei, otherwise there wouldn't be this stage play.

She was really planning to take revenge on him and Wang Jiani. He had been thinking of staying with her properly afterwards, indulging her whims and not seeing Wang Jiani. But she was so foolish, this would destroy him and Wang Jiani.

Faced with Ruan Jia's clear attack for the first time, Sheng Wenyue found it hard to accept that a woman who loved him so much would do this to him.

He even started to doubt himself again, thinking perhaps he had misunderstood, perhaps it was just Qin Zhao and Ji Fei being troublemakers and targeting them, and the story coincidentally overlapped.

However, regardless of which situation it was, it didn't matter. The direction of public opinion was still in the hands of those with more fans. Everyone would just think that Ji Fei and Qin Zhao were deliberately mixing truth and falsehood to create drama and criticize him and Wang Jiani.
