Chapter 479: Committing a Crime During the Height of a Crackdown?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

With Lin Nuan on his mind, Fu Tianci turned around and looked across the road.

And saw a not very tall, short-haired guy getting off a black Jeep Cherokee. He was wearing a hoodie sweatshirt and denim jeans and was walking towards Lin Nuan. The amusing thing was that he wasn’t even as tall as Lin Nuan!

Lin Nuan handed a cup of coffee to that delicate-looking short-haired guy. The guy smiled at Lin Nuan, then held Lin Nuan’s slim wrist with one arm as he walked her to the front passenger seat and pulled open the car door for her. He then lightly jogged around the front of the car and climbed into the driver’s seat.

Fu Tianci stood frozen, his eyes widened…

What did he just see?

Was Lin Nuan… seeing another man behind Fu Huai’an’s back?

Fu Tianci’s heart started racing; despite his unwillingness to believe it, his eyes wouldn’t have deceived him!

If they were just colleagues, why would he do something so ambiguous like putting his arm around Lin Nuan’s waist?

Fu Tianci’s mind was full of questions and shock!

After he came back to his senses, Fu Tianci felt like his chest was pent-up and painful. Why didn’t he charge up and wallop that shortie just now? Damn! How dare he covet Fu Huai’an’s woman!

In Fu Tianci’s heart, Fu Huai’an had always been a God-like presence. Why did Lin Nuan have to look for another man behind Fu Huai’an’s back when she was together with the perfectly flawless Fu Huai’an?

And of all people, why did she have to find someone inferior! He wasn’t even as tall as Lin Nuan! With that stature he dared drive a car like a Jeep Cherokee, was he not kidding around?

Fu Tianci could only watch on as that car left the entrance of the station building, his knuckles cracking by his sides.

“Lu Tianyu, I’m talking to you! What happened to your face?” The staff member pushed at Fu Tianci’s elbow.

Fu Tianci irritably removed the staff member’s hand and replied without thinking, “Beaten by my dad!”

This statement momentarily gave that staff member a mental image of Fu Tianci’s father walloping his son for Lin Nuan.

…

In the dressing room, Fu Tianci was seated in front of the mirror with his legs crossed, fidgeting with his phone with his head lowered. He was distraught as he looked in the mirror at the busy-like-a-bee makeup artist who was occupied with covering up the wounds on his face…

Ever since he had seen Lin Nuan get into the car with that short man, he had been feeling uneasy, his heart thumping. It was as if he was harboring a huge secret and was afraid other people might discover it.

Lin Nuan was way too careless; even if she wanted to date that wild man, she shouldn’t have picked a time like this. With the media’s eyes on her, why was she not afraid of being exposed? How could she be so bold? Was she not committing a crime during the height of a crackdown?

Fu Tianci was worrying for Lin Nuan, whereas his makeup artist was worrying about nor being able to cover up the wound on his face, a glum look on hers.

The show’s producer heard how Fu Tianci was hit by his own father and came in with a wound on his face. He couldn’t help drawing the link to Fu Tianci’s Weibo post, whispering to someone next to him, “Could Lin Nuan really have had an affair with this kid’s father?”

The producer was feeling a little gossipy and curious.

He had wanted to go to the dressing room to check out Fu Tianci’s wound, but before he got there, he saw the president, Chu Xun, standing at the door with her brows furrowed. Within the room, Fu Tianci’s hysterical cursing could be heard.

“President!”

The producer hurriedly jogged over to say hi to Chu Xun. He sneaked a glance into the dressing room and saw two bodyguards in black suits about to forcibly take Fu Tianci out of the room. Fu Tianci’s two legs had a death grip on the door frame, his body and the door frame forming a 90-degree angle, refusing to go out. This was turning into a circus.

“That’s enough! Stop making a scene!” Chu Xun’s brows were tightly furrowed. “Old Master Fu doesn’t permit you to take part in this program. Be good! What’s more, how do you expect to go on stage with your face injured? How are you going to explain it to the audience?”

The producer paused in surprise. To think that Chu Xun actually knew Fu Tianci… he felt that Fu Tianci’s background must not be simple. He couldn’t help thinking that for their station’s famous cold beauty Lin Nuan to be willing to be the stepmom to someone else’s son, it must be some immensely wealthy man. However, no matter how he racked his brain, he couldn’t think of a rich person with the surname “Lu” in Haicheng.

“President, what’s going on? It’s the kid’s turn to go on stage soon…” The producer, Old Wang, fixed the position of his tweed cap on his head as he spoke.

Chu Xun had seen the news that morning and also received a call from Secretary Song asking Chu Xun to cancel Fu Tianci’s eligibility to take part in the contest. Old Master Fu’s right-hand man, Secretary Song, had personally made the call to request this, plus she had heard that Old Master Fu was hospitalized because of this matter, so how could Chu Xun refuse to help?

Chu Xun kept her anger hidden, her facial features solemn, and her voice stern. “This kid isn’t even 18 yet, who allowed him to take part?”

Old Wang was stunned by this confrontation for a moment, then hurriedly explained, “Participants under 18 have obtained the signatures of their guardians, and only after we verified by contacting their guardian did we allow them to take part!”

“Chu Xun, you old witch! You’re helping the evil! No wonder Fu Huai’an wouldn’t give you a thought and doesn’t want you! Not only are you ugly, but you’re also stupid! Do you think Fu Huai’an will be happy if you please the old man? You don’t even know about the situation at the Fus’ house, and here you are, blindly taking sides… you’re going to regret this! Fu Huai’an’s going to hate you to death if you act according to the old man’s wishes! You dumb b*tch!”

Chu Xun’s face had turned green from all that scolding.

Old Wang could tell there was a big insider story! He subconsciously stole a glance at his assistant.

Could it be, President Chu Xun and Lin Nuan were rivals in love?

“Remove his legs from the door frame!” Chu Xun’s chest was heaving up and down violently as she pointed a finger and commanded Old Wang.

Old Wang hesitated for a moment.

“Chu Xun, don’t dream about getting together with Fu Huai’an in this lifetime! You’re ugly! And wicked! The term ‘vicious woman’ doesn’t even suffice to describe you! You’re a retard! And to call you a retard would be an insult to the retards! Did your mother lose the child and rear the placenta that you were reduced to when you were born? What’s more, you’re a placenta that has been squashed by a door. How are you, a mere placenta, fit to be with Fu Huai’an! Dumb b*tch! Dumb dumb b*tch!”

“What are you standing there for?” Chu Xun couldn’t listen to another word of this. Her anger was directed straight at Old Wang, giving off a cold, stern, and imposing aura.

Old Wang frantically responded, “President! This kid has the highest popularity in this show! If we abruptly remove this kid from the program, there’d surely be rumors flying around!”

Fu Tianci’s song “Campus Memories” had taken the entire country by storm overnight!

“This kid is hot stuff right now, and there’s talk that he passed the auditions because he took the backdoor route courtesy of Lin Nuan… With an incident like that, if we suddenly remove him from the show, the audience might scold us to death. Those who don’t know better might really think there’s some kind of insider deal behind our show. Are we not stirring the sh*t pot ourselves by doing that?”

Old Wang was older than Chu Xun by more than 20 years and was considered a veteran at the station. Although Chu Xun was the president, he still dared to speak his mind if he put it across nicely.
