Chapter 181 - "What's the name of the female demon who stole your soul?" (1)

Noticing something, Gu Nian looked up.

Her eyes met with Qin Yuanyuan’s complicated and helpless look from the corner of the living room.

The two communicated wordlessly for a little while and both was able to confirmed each other’s thoughts and reached an understanding.

Gu Nian sighed. Sure enough, anyone with half a brain should be able to piece two and two together given what had happened.

As for Jiang Xiaoqing……

Gu Nian and Qin Yuanyuan looked away from each other at the same time and both of them sat down on the couch.

There was a anthropoid rolling happily on it as though thousands of years of evolution had been wiped off in just half a minute.

Gu Nian smiled helplessly and Qin Yuanyuan, taking the opportunity that the “anthropoid” was still submerged in her happiness and didn’t spare them any of her attention, walked over to Gu Nian lightly.

Qin Yuanyuan, “About that……”

Gu Nian hesitated a bit and said softly, “I can tell you the entire story.”

Qin Yuanyuan shook her head, “That will not be necessary. I trust you. If you chose not to share that in the past, you must have your reasons. Just tell us when you have taken care of what you need to or when you feel the time is right – don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone about it.”

Feeling a sense of warm in her heart, Gu Nian said, “Thank you, Yuanyan.”

“We are ‘comrades in arms’ who had been through many life-and-death moments under our clients,” joked Qin Yuanyuan. “Besides, it didn’t matter what your pseudonym was in the past, Gu Nian is the one that I know and understand. That’s the only thing that matters.”

“Mmm.”

When the two exchanged a smile, a fuzzy head suddenly popped up between the two of them. “What are you two scheming.”

“––!”

Gu Nian and Qin Yuanyuan both took a step back at the same time, both having a peculiar look on them.

It was obvious that Jiang Xiaoqing did not notice that at all. The smile on her was short of becoming semi-permanent. Placing the cellphone between the two of them, she said, “Hurry up and check this out! This shameless Zhuo Yixuan! The real owner came out to faceslap and her retribution is here!”

That name had, once again, distracted Gu Nian. Her smile lightened, “What is going on with her?”

“Marketing backfire, what else could there be?” said Jiang Xiaoqing satisfyingly. “As I have said before, all of the fanbase and benefits that she had gained in the past were built upon the assumption that nobody would ever find out that she was not Mengzhi. Welp, now that her foundation had shattered, all of her character setting built on top of it will come crashing down!”

Qin Yuanyuan stuck her head over curiously, “What are the netizen’s reaction?”

“Almost all of them were bashing her. Bwahahahaha. Oh, this is too satisfying! What could be more satisfying than witnessing a bad person got what they deserved?”

Seeing how Jiang Xiaoqing only wished she could look up at the sky and laugh maniacally, Gu Nian hesitated a little and finally said to her, “I don’t want to burst your bubble but……”

Jiang Xiaoqing looked over at her alarmingly, “But what?”

Gu Nian, “This will not be the end of it.”

Jiang Xiaoqing, “? Don’t you dare curse my goddess!”

Gu Nian didn’t know what to make of that. “Why would I want to curse my…… curse your goddess? But we have been with the Demons production team for a month. You had seen what the director team’s attitude toward Zhuo Yixuan. She must have come from a mighty background – as such, do you really think that she and those behind her would just let the public opinions keep going like this?”

Jiang Xiaoqing, “… oh, chit.”

After her initial panic had subsided a little, Jiang Xiaoqing turned and asked worriedly, “So things are about to get ugly for my goddess? Will she be smeared or otherwise targeted?”

“Don’t worry”

“How can I not?”

“If she had chosen to stand up,” said Gu Nian as her eyes curved with a relaxing smile. “Then she was already tired of hiding and probably wanted to know what it felt like to be at the cusp of the matters.”

“Em, let’s not and say we did. I hope it all goes well for her……”

Jiang Xiaoqing lowered her face with a sad look.

Qin Yuanyuan, still holding onto Jiang Xiaoqing’s cellphone looked up at the two of them, “Em, you two might want to take a look at this.”

“Hmm?”

Gu Nian and Jiang Xiaoqing looked over at the screen as indicated by Qin Yuanyuan.
