Chapter 108: 108 Dad—came
In the afternoon, after Shi Lan had lain in bed for a while and got up, she saw Sun Ling scrolling through gossip on the couch, thoroughly enjoying herself.
“An Lan, didn’t Chen Beini just disappear after filming this morning’s scene? Now there’s a passerby who leaked a photo of her at the hospital—isn’t this the legendary play for sympathy? Tsk tsk, and there are even candid shots with Gu Chengyu accompanying Chen Beini, these two really are full of drama, why do they keep NGing on set all the time?”
“I’ll roll out my ‘tank’ once they officially start their PR this afternoon,” Shi Lan said as she got out of bed and started getting ready for the afternoon shoot.
When Sun Ling followed Shi Lan, she was noticeably excited, “When the time comes, I humbly request the Alliance of Thirteen to clear a path for the big boss!”
“Oh, by the way, An Lan, I just noticed at noon that your new number is only one digit off from CEO Yan’s number. Is that a couple’s phone number?”
At this moment, Miss Shi Lan cleared her throat and answered, “Hmm.”
“Eek… I’m so jealous, but really, it’s so romantic.”
“Romantic?” Miss Shi Lan furrowed her brows, not quite understanding the kind of romance Sun Ling was talking about.
“Don’t you think? It’s like the two of you are the closest people in the world, your numbers are linked, don’t you have the desire to show off to the whole world?” Sun Ling looked at her incredulously, unable to believe she could be this dense, “Never mind, a big shot lady like you is busy making money all day, no wonder you don’t have time for romance…”
The scorned big shot lady boss: “…”
“But CEO Yan must be thinking this way.”
After hearing Sun Ling’s last comment, Shi Lan closed her eyes to savor the moment, and indeed, she felt a slight sweetness returning.
After touching up their makeup, the two returned to the set, where the National Couple was sticking together in the hot weather, their clinginess making Sun Ling feel sick.

In fact, Chen Beini was still “sick,” so Gu Chengyu was giving her his “caring” attention. Now, with negative news surrounding Chen Beini, they could only leverage their status as the National Couple to force a comeback.
Chen Beini nestled in Gu Chengyu’s arms, but his gaze would occasionally fall on Shi Lan.
He wondered if An Lan had seen his text message.
During the afternoon shoot, Chen Beini came on set “sick,” displaying utmost professionalism, which made Director Tang roll his eyes—she wasn’t really sick, so why come looking ill and slow down the progress?
It wasn’t easy to get through two scenes before Chen Beini’s team began their formal maneuvers.
First, they released Chen Beini’s apology video, where she, looking ill, sincerely apologized to all the artists and fans.
She felt guilty for not managing her fans well and not positively guiding them, which led to the misuse of public resources, causing trouble for everyone.
Then, Gu Chengyu retweeted her video, “Those who understand you, do. You are the best, and this was never about you! [Heart]”
Sun Ling, sitting under the shade of a tree when she came across these two posts, almost threw up in disgust.
The Anti-Chen Alliance members also commented below their posts, stating they did not accept the apology.
“Chen Beini’s team has played their hand well, huh? Using the National Couple’s popularity to divert attention. Do our artists deserve to get scolded?”
“Chen Beini is really good at playing the sympathy card. What illness? Did she recover the moment she entered the hospital?”
“Dumping all the blame on the fans, cleaning herself off completely, no shame at all!”
“Dammit, if someone could slap this despicable couple right now, I’d kneel and call them ‘Daddy’!”
Really? Well, Daddy——is here.
“Ahhhh! Look at Glory’s official website, Glory has just announced the full line of endorsers for the Asia-Pacific Region, not just brand ambassadors, full line endorsers, do you know who it is?”
