The news that “Jiang Nian hugged Bi’s golden thigh, and also used the money of the golden thigh to support her little lover” completely spread!

Not only Jiang Nian- Zheng Qi, Bi Lei, and Chen Xin were also shocked. They especially wanted to meet the talents who wrote this news and let them know that their Jiang jie was even more powerful than they thought!

Zheng Hao also saw it. He raised an eyebrow and smiled twice and asked the assistant to order a flower basket for Bi Zheng. The card said: “Congratulations, congratulations!”

As for what it congratulated: not only was the green hat stable, he even collected the position of little three.

When the Zheng family saw the news, they said that it was unscrupulous media. How could a girl like that raise a little lover? It must be the pot of Bi golden thigh!

Zhao Heng was also shocked. He was shocked that he seemed to change from a genuine boyfriend to a little lover. Were the positions reversed?

And when he saw the news, he knew that it was Ji Yaling’s plot, and choosing to release after Jiang Nian’s new drama aired, it was a plan at first glance. They seemed to want to make Jiang Nian reputation stinky so, while publishing the news, they also invited a large number of naval forces to deliberately hype Jiang Nian into a woman who admires vanity, hypocrisy, and popularity. They did not dare do too much, only enough to gain sympathy for President Bi. After all, not only was he hooked by a goblin, he had to help the goblin raise a little lover. His green hat was well-worn. This was worthy of sympathy and pity. Of course, people also wanted to watch jokes.

Zhao Heng had expected this day, so it was not too unexpected. When Ji Yaling came to him intentionally but did not cooperate, he troubled Lao Wei to investigate.

Lao Wei had been in the entertainment industry for many years. He had some connections in his hands. Of course, he also knew a lot of reporters. His ability was much stronger than Ji Yaling. Otherwise, he would not be a star agent of Xingxiu. Plus, Liu reporter who cooperated with Ji Yaling was not a particularly capable or tight-lipped— could they really capture valuable things without any leak?

In addition, this reporter Liu had secretly shot Jiang Nian, Bi Zheng, Zheng Hao and others before. This time, they went to reporter Liu immediately, but was told that he had already sold the photos and videos to someone. As for who was sold to, he explained that it should be kept secret. If he revealed it, who would dare to cooperate with him in the future?

However, Zhao Heng thought that the person who would buy the news and also aimed at Jiang Nian could only be Ji Yaling, although she did not admit it.

The last time Ji Yaling came to him, she was afraid that he would be uncomfortable. She deliberately tried to make him and Jiang Nian quarrel, but didn’t mean to hand over the photos. It was just bait.

It stood to reason that Ji Yaling and Jiang Nian had only met a few times, and they didn’t much contact with each other otherwise. Why did she have to start with Jiang Nian?

Lao Wei speculated, “Maybe Ji Yaling likes you so she sees Jiang Nian as not pleasing to the eye? Her love fuels her hatred, and she wants to deal with Jiang Nian everywhere. Or you ask Jiang Nian if she has any problems with Ji Yaling. Maybe there’s a past there?”

Other than these, they really couldn’t think of other reasons. After all, Ji Yaling and Jiang Nian were two people in different fields. They had little contact before, and the only bond between them was Zhao Heng.

Zhao Heng was not stupid. Of course, he didn’t believe Ji Yaling had feelings for him, but Ji Yaling’s possessiveness towards him is really scary. After thinking for a moment, he said, “Ji Yaling doesn’t like me, but Wei ge, you are right. Ji Yaling targeted Jiang Nian probably because of me. You see that the news she released deliberately did not say my name— it must be waiting for me to contact her.”

Lao Wei said, “Indeed. Other than that, I can’t think of any other reason.”

Zhao Heng thought, and suddenly said, “If Jiang Nian and I announced the relationship now…”

Lao Wei reluctantly shook his head.

“This is not appropriate. You also know that many people are guessing who Jiang Nian’s little lover is. Chen Qing has been pulled out and tossed around. After all, he relied on Jiang Nian’s drama to become popular, and he has acted as the male lead for two consecutive series, so the first person outsiders think of is him. At this time, if you mix it in, it will stir the muddy water, which is not a good way. Besides, “The Spy” is about to start broadcasting next month. The producer will not want you to make this news, and the shows you have to do for promotion won’t allow it.”

Zhao Heng frowned. He thought about these issues, but felt they weren’t big problems. The most important one was that public romance would not have a good effect on this news. Instead, it would just be adding fuel to the fire. After all, with his status today, he truly was a “not-so-famous little star” as circulated on the Internet.

Zhao Heng could only temporarily suppress these ideas, and called Jiang Nian to ask if there was any bad blood between her and Ji Yaling? When Zhao Heng asked this, Jiang Nian guessed that the news broke on the Internet was indeed Ji Yaling’s handwriting, and not the ‘friend’ she’d claimed.

She thought about it and said, “Ji jie said that I delayed your career and let me leave you, but I didn’t agree. Does that count?”

Zhao Heng’s eyes were cold, and his handsome face looked cold, and he disliked Ji Yaling even more.

“Niannian, sorry, it’s me that has troubled you and made you feel wronged.”

Jiang Nian laughed and asked, “What kind of trouble is this? This can only be regarded as a stumbling block on our true love road. It’s just a small pebble. Just step on it; it’s not even worth a glance.”

Jiang Nian who said this really had a elder sister style. This little thing didn’t enter her eyes at all. Even if outside the wind and rain were shaking, it wouldn’t shake her.

Zhao Heng smiled lowly. He always knew that Jiang Nian was a very powerful person. She seemed to be persistent but also adapted quickly. Her character was also extremely optimistic. It seemed that even the biggest problems became nothing in front of her.

Although Jiang Nian didn’t care, Zhao Heng cared. He totally disliked Ji Yaling. The former grace of colleagues had already been worn away under her conspiracy and tricks time and again. He even wanted to teach her a lesson and return the bad things to her. However, Lao Wei was right that such similar news cases were endless in the entertainment industry. At best, they’d go to court and victim would receive some compensation. It really wasn’t enough for Ji Yaling to get the profound lesson she deserved.

Jiang Nian said, “Don’t worry, I have already planned what to do in the future, and I have already prepared the evidence. It is only a scandal, and it’s not difficult for me.”

Zhao Heng said, “I’ll take a break from the crew now and come back first.”

” Why do you come back? Working hard to make more money is the best comfort for me.”

Zhao Heng was helpless and amused: “Niannian, I have agreed with the director that we’ll focus on filming my scenes today. I have already booked a ticket for 11 o’clock tonight. I want to accompany you.”

Jiang Nian’s eyes turned: “It is indeed my little lover, so intimate.” 1

Zhao Heng: “……” 

Jiang Nian really didn’t worry about this little thing, even if the outside world was full of turbulence, and the navy bought by Ji Yaling deliberately guided the speech and scolded her, saying that she had done everything from the earth to the sky, she just saw it as a farce. This little gossip was nothing.

Besides, she knew that Ji Yaling was going to do something, so how could she not make some preparations?

****

Now the netizens were lively, first come to Jiang Nian’s Weibo and ask about it, saying that she used hidden rules or something for the sake of being superior; then go to Bi Zheng’s Weibo to sympathize with him and comfort him, consoling that a cuckold wasn’t scary, just rip the band-aid off and move on; then go to Chen Qing to let him be careful. Even Song Hanhan’s Weibo was brought into the fray.

Chen Qing also tweeted with a grim expression, saying that he believed that Jiang jie and President Bi had nothing illicit relationship, and that Jiang jie did not have any little lover, and he was even less likely to be that little lover. He was simply a loyal younger brother, ah! Song Hanhan also forwarded, supporting Jiang Nian and Chen Qing, and, of course, the gold master dad.

It was only that they were limited in strength, and soon the navy rushed over again, firing indiscriminately.

However, today’s Chen Qing and Song Hanhan can be regarded as big V. Their fans had gone from hundreds of thousands to millions and would soon break 10 million. Plus, the drama was still airing. Now was the time when the fans were most loyal—of course, they had unlimited trust in their idols and would also do anything to maintain the reputations of their idols. As soon as Chen Qing’s Weibo came out, fans immediately howled to believe him, and then launched a fierce tearing war with the navy in order to defend their idol.

Jiang Nian was still very moved. So many people saw her perfection and excellence.

If Ji Yaling thought that she could be stumped by such a trouble, she was too naive. After seeing those photos, she also organized two sets of photos. One was when Bi Zheng was visiting the class in country M. Some of the group photos were taken on the day of her return. Ji Yaling deliberately cropped out the others present, creating an ambiguous illusion, and released news that she had a little lover, and then used public opinion to vilify her.

This plan looked perfect, but there was actually a fatal flaw: Bi Zheng.

As long as Bi Zheng did not cooperate, even if this scandal was lively, it was just an empty shell propped up by public opinion. What was false was false and could not be true.

Besides, when she knew that Ji Yaling was going to move, she had already talked to Bi Zheng. She didn’t say much, just said that the photos of them returning to China together might have been taken. If there was anything after that, if the news came out, let him not be surprised, everything was in her grasp.

Sometimes Bi Zheng would just go out, and a woman standing next to him was captured in a picture and taken out for discussion, saying that it is his rumored girlfriend. This kind of thing was not uncommon, and he wouldn’t bother to pursue it. He occasionally sent a few attorney letters when the situation was big, but he really didn’t take it seriously.

So, when Bi Zheng was woken up by his phone early in the morning, he found that he not only had a girlfriend but also a little three. It was not very unexpected but, at the same time, it was very unexpected. He thought it was just a simple little scandal. Where did he know he was even wearing a green hat???

His Weibo was full of greenery, all to sympathize with his head, and cheerfully asking if he would mind wearing a few more green hats? Who would want to be cuckolded? Of course, he didn’t want more- no, he had never worn any! He was almost misled by these sand sculpture netizens.

He immediately called Jiang Nian and said, “This is what you call under control?”

Jiang Nian looked at the ceiling.

“President Bi, although you are aggrieved with a green hat, it’s not as awful as the fox spirit me hugging a man in my left and right arms.”

Bi Zheng’s little leather shoes were almost worn out: “Oh.”

……Why was his golden thigh held by this Jianghu jie???

Jiang Nian smiled and stopped joking, and said earnestly, “President Bi, this scandal has no basis at first sight. As long as you send a statement of denial, I’m ready with the evidence to clarify the scandal. Once you send it, I will immediately follow up.”

President Bi snorted and said, “You are quite smart.”

Bi Zheng also knew that the current situation was very unfavorable to Jiang Nian. If Jiang Nian rushed to clarify the scandal, she would likely just be accused by people with an intention that she wants to cover it up. But to clarify the scandal after he posted Weibo completely refuting it was justified.

After all, this cuckolded party has denied it, so what if Jiang Nian really had a little lover? What about single men and women having a relationship?

And, just now, he received several text messages asking how he became their eldest brother? They also said that it must be his fault because he usually had too much lace news, so their Jiang jie was dragged in after walked with him a few times; let him quickly clarify and deliver fairness for Jiang Nian; their Jiang jie was really aggrieved! It would be better to compensate her with something.

Bi Zheng: ‘Hehehe, these little bastards need a beating!’

The Shen Li group was also very lively. Shen Li Qi Qi Ge said, “It’s because that President Bi is too famous, so every time Jiang jie walks with him, she will be rumored by various sneak shots.”

Shen Li Chief Lei: “In fact, I think it’s a little strange. Although my brother is famous and there is a lot of lace news, but the photos seem like someone deliberately secretly took pictures of Jiang jie and my brother. We all were there when we went out of the airport. Why is there only the older sister and my brother? It’s as if it was done on purpose!”

Shen Li Little Gold: “Not only that, but they also deliberately guided the gossip. In addition to the rumors of Jiang jie and President Bi, they also said that Jiang jie raised a small lover. This is deliberately framing the elder sister. It’s a fully planned attack.”

Shen Li Qi Qi Ge wondered, “Who would do this? Ji Yaling? I knew she didn’t like Jiang jie.”

Shen Li Chief Lei: “This is not clear, but it must be an enemy who finds our Jiang jie not pleasing to the eyes. Check it out and find out.”

It was time to look it up. As younger brothers, shouldn’t they just come in handy at this time?

The Shen Li group was in full discussion, and Bi Wei also posted a Weibo, writing, “Jiang jie and I are very innocent, don’t just give me a green hat. Whoever dares to make a rumor, I will see you in court.”

Besides, he was so excellent. How could the woman with him have the energy to raise a little lover? This rumor looked down on him too much!

[President Bi’s Wife] cried happily. She knew that her husband would not make her green! Those photos were indeed two separate people standing together, but there was no intimate behavior; just because the two were walking together, they were speculated. When the scandal came out, she was the first to disbelieve it. She sent countless comments but was suppressed by other comments. Anyone with a brain knew that this was a plot.

Now that Bi Zheng spoke, his wife fans naturally howled to believe in him.2 Since Bi Zheng and Jiang Nian had nothing, then the news that Jiang Nian had embraced left and right was naturally untenable.

At this time, Jiang Nian just sent out the photos she organized, which was almost the same scene as the previous scandal, but there were more people in the photos sent by Jiang Nian—not only the staff, but even the husband’s younger brother!

The scandal lasted a half-morning before finally coming to an end. It was actually fiction, someone’s deliberate attempted to frame people! Jiang Nian directly referred the follow-up to a lawyer.

Although this scandal was explained clearly, Jiang Nian did not deny it for one reason: she did have a little lover, ah! And he was also very intimate.

****

Ji Yaling saw a discrepancy in her plans to sway public opinion trends and angrily snorted, while the assistant around her asked: “Ji jie, do you still want to pay for more navy?”

“No point.”

Others have come up with the evidence, what’s the point of buying navy? Although her goal was not achieved, she was still succeeded halfway. She did not believe that Zhao Heng still trusted Jiang Nian so much, and that she did not believe that Bi Zheng, who had never liked gossip, would keep tolerating Jiang Nian after being rumored with her several times! On the surface, she lost, but she won in the end.

What people fear most was doubt. She had been in the circle for so long and knew this truth deeply.

Just as she was secretly planning, the assistant suddenly came over and said that they had received two lawyer letters, one from Bi’s company and the other from Jiang Nian’s lawyer.

Ji Yaling panicked a bit. She wasn’t afraid of Jiang Nian, but she was afraid that Bi Zheng would target her!

Almost all the big movies produced in the circle have Bi Zheng’s investment in it, and he held a huge weight in them. If President Bi did not want anyone to appear in the films and TVs he invests in, wouldn’t it only take a word? Fortunately, she was clever enough not to expose herself. Bi Zheng still didn’t know what she did today. President Bi sent many lawyer’s letters. She believed it would be forgotten in a few days.

Besides, she was not merely a small agent now. She also became acquainted with several rich wives due to her prophesying ability in the stock market. They made a fortune from her, recognized her ability, and often brought her along when socializing. Although Bi Zheng made her a little nervous, she did not make any unforgivable mistakes. Even if Bi Zheng didn’t like her, there was nothing he could do. She was even less fearful of Jiang Nian. At best, she’d compensate with a little money. She happened to have a lot of money.

After thinking about it like that, she finally relieved her confusion, and soon relaxed again. At some point, she’d find Jiang Nian’s weakness!

Consoling herself, Ji Yaling was finally not so worried, and immediately invited those rich wives to play mahjong, leaving the matter to the assistant to handle.

During this time, Yang Zhan was filming in the crew. She couldn’t lower herself to accompany a small artist. As long as the assistant took care of him, nothing was wrong. She just waited for Yang Zhan to fire. Then it wouldn’t be too late to take care of him personally.

It was early in the morning when Zhao Heng came back. Jiang Nian was sleeping soundly. The man put his bag away lightly and went to the bathroom to take a bath. When he came out, he found that Jiang Nian was awake.

She nestled in the quilt and blinked at him stupidly. The man had just taken a bath, and he was only wrapped in a white bath towel, with a powerful waist and narrow hips. He was full of a wild force, strong and sexy.

In the few months she hadn’t seen him, he seemed to be more flavorful.

Zhao Heng wiped his half-wet short hair, and asked, “Woke you up?”

Jiang Nian shook her head.

“You must be tired, come to sleep.”

Zhao Heng slept naturally next to her and stretched out his arms to hug Jiang Nian. He closed his eyes and smelled the faint fragrance he was familiar with. Although the last time they saw each other was only three months, it felt as if half a century had passed.

Jiang Nian woke up early. She poked at Zhao Heng’s stubbled chin. He frowned slightly but did not wake up. Jiang Nian smiled and lay on his chest with a smile, saying, “Little lover, when did you climb into my bed last night? Why didn’t I know?”

Zhao Heng lowered his lip and tightened his arms around her weak waist.

“Who is the little lover?”

Jiang Nian said, “Of course, you. Don’t you see the news? Now many people are guessing who my little lover is!”

When explaining the scandal, she only explained that she was innocent with Bi Zheng, but she did not deny a word about the little lover. The netizens who had come back to God had thought about it early in the morning and had been guessing who that “unknown little star ” really was.

Zhao Heng snorted.

“The news on the Internet is not credible.”

“Then you say it. Are you my little lover, or aren’t you?”

Zhao Heng finally opened his eyes to look at her then rolled over and pressed her underneath, and, with a little evil and threatening tone said, “Would you like to try and see who the little lover is?”

He felt it necessary to make it clear to Jiang Nian that not just anyone could be called a little lover.

Hey yo, did he think his strength better than hers? As a divine helper, she had yet to lose!

Then Jiang Nian won all morning. Zhao Heng was suppressed until he couldn’t move. He couldn’t help but doubt life and finally began to have the illusion that he was a little lover???

Jiang Nian also deliberately asked him, “So, who is the little lover?”

Zhao Heng: ……It might be him???

1. ‘Intimate’ here not only conveys the meaning of the word but also the feeling of someone carefully caring/worrying about you, always considering your feelings, wanting to rush over at the drop of a hat, etc. So, it’s basically a super considerate and loving close loved one.^

2. Just a quick note because I’m not sure if all of you know this: In Asian countries, stars’ fans are often classified by…I guess you could say their imagined relationships with said stars? So Bi Zheng’s ‘wife fans’ are fans who imagine themselves to be his wife and him as their husband -aka they’re attracted to him. You also have girlfriend fans, mother fans for younger/cuter/clumsier stars, big/little brother/sister fans, etc. It’s a whole thing.
