Chapter 1612: Chapter 937: Tang Wan: You Won’t Explain? I Will! (8 Updates)
Tang Wan turned around and gave a gentle, radiant smile...
Her clear, lively eyes brimmed with mirth, like the most dazzling blossom of autumn, like a smear of red blown straight through the maple leaves by the autumn wind!
Beautiful, yet carrying a heart-stopping shade of red.
Yu Zhen’s whole body went stiff, her limbs and bones felt frozen. She gripped the microphone, forcing herself to calm down!
Don’t shake, don’t be scared, you haven’t done anything guilty!
But she couldn’t see how the color was draining rapidly from her face; even the delicate makeup couldn’t cover the pallor and the sickly greenish cast.
"Teacher Tang." Yu Zhen forced a trace of smile out from the corner of her lips, "You don’t need to give me any explanation. Look, it’s about time now, your exhibition should officially begin, right?"
Yu Zhen smiled obsequiously, which made the fans below restless.
Just now it was clearly Tang Wan who provoked first, how did it turn into Yu Zhen being this humble?
"What she said just now, she should give us an answer..." The male fan from earlier grew agitated again, but the moment he saw the back of Jiang Jinsang’s head, his voice grew smaller and smaller, becoming so obedient it was unreal. "We’re just here to help, why say that about Zhenzhen?"
"Yeah, give us an explanation."
"We help and still get questioned—can’t good people do good deeds anymore?"
...
Right now Yu Zhen’s fans wanted an explanation, but Yu Zhen herself clearly didn’t, which made things rather entertaining.
Always on the front line of eating melon, Duan Linbai almost burst out laughing:
"Yet another one about to be strangled to death by her own fans? She probably really wants to shut this bunch up right now."
"People like that definitely did something shady, otherwise what’s she panicking for?"
"She even bought herself a hot search. Her team moved pretty fast, and now they’ve turned into idiots—why isn’t she talking?"
He rambled on and on, and then realized no one was responding to him. That bastard Fu Chen was busy talking to his own wife, so Duan Linbai reached out and nudged Jing Hanchuan on the other side.
"Hey, I’ve been talking for ages, at least give me some reaction?"
The Sixth Master Jing, who hadn’t said a word all this time, finally looked up at him and dropped a line that left him dumbstruck:
"What did you just say?"
Eating melon and watching drama is only fun if people are discussing it; the bunch around him were something else. "You come here to eat melon and watch the show, and you don’t even talk—what the hell did you come for?"
"To watch. Watching is enough. You’ve been talking this long, isn’t your mouth tired?" Jing Hanchuan’s remark nearly pissed him to death.
There are actually people who ask if his mouth is tired?
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Qi Zeyan on the other side; that guy was chatting away enthusiastically with Jiang Chengsi.
What to do...
He wanted to join the group chat!
Qi Zeyan seemed to notice that gaze. He lifted his eyes, frowned slightly:
What’s with this brat looking at him all pitiful like that?
We’re not even close, why are you giving me that look.
Jiang Chengsi followed ZeYan’s line of sight and also saw the man on the other side. "Yo, since when did you two start making eyes at each other? Why do you look all tender and affectionate?"
"Get lost, who the hell has feelings for him." Qi Zeyan looked thoroughly disgusted, immediately turned his body, presenting the shiny, slicked-back rear of his head to him.
"Come on, I feel like that Young Master Duan has something he wants to say to you."
"I don’t have that kind of relationship with him."
...
On the other side, Duan Linbai was getting depressed; he wanted to find someone to talk to. He turned his head and locked onto Yun Hezhi—this Boss Yun looked fairly approachable.
"Don’t bother him." Jing Hanchuan suddenly spoke.
"I know he’s the mainstay of your opera house, I just want to talk to him."
"His voice is for singing opera. Talking to you... wastes his voice."
"..."
He folded his arms across his chest, practically about to explode from rage.

Meanwhile, onstage, Yu Zhen was flustered and at a loss, because she couldn’t figure out or see through Tang Wan, and that made her heart tremble.
Her assistant team down below was anxious too.
"Manager Chen, what is Teacher Tang trying to do?"
"Isn’t she supposed to cue the flow now? We’re just here to help, we didn’t do anything else. Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?"
"Exactly, doing this is against the rules, isn’t it? Who’s going to dare cooperate with you and endorse you in the future?"
...
Chen Zhi only gave them a smile. "Don’t be afraid, it’s nothing."
That’s what he said, but what happened next was like a bolt of lightning out of a clear sky, charring everyone inside and out.
Yu Zhen’s smile by now was extremely strained. "Teacher Tang, I really don’t need any explanation."
"But your fans say you do."
"I’ll explain it to them later..."
Tang Wan smiled easily. "You don’t need to explain anything. There are a few things where I’d like Miss Yu to give me an explanation."
The people below were all stunned...
Tang Wan’s maneuver was really something else, one move after another.
Yu Zhen had just said she didn’t need an explanation, and now Tang Wan wanted Yu Zhen to explain herself?
What kind of route was this? Nobody could follow anymore, and Yu Zhen also looked dazed, as if something had suddenly occurred to her. The look in her eyes, when she glanced at Tang Wan, carried obvious evasiveness.
She didn’t dare look her in the eye at all.
"Teacher Tang, I..."
"You don’t understand what you’re supposed to explain, right?" Tang Wan’s smile grew even more harmless, like a kind, approachable older sister. She walked over, patted her on the shoulder. "Don’t panic, you’ll know soon enough."
After speaking, Tang Wan turned her head slightly and glanced down at Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi signaled the staff that they could start, which stirred up a wave of hushed whispering and head-butting discussions. No one knew what they were up to now; all eyes were full of suspicion.
"They just finished dealing with that group of animal-rights people, the exhibition’s about to start, so what now?"
"Don’t you think there’s something off about what Tang Wan said? She wants Yu Zhen to give her an explanation, but Yu Zhen’s been speaking up for her the whole time. Even during the livestream she was praising her. Some people even joked that she’s Tang Wan’s fan."
"Feels like something big is still coming."
"Did Yu Zhen do something in private that we don’t know about?"
...
Yu Zhen’s mind was a mess, her heart seemed to leap right up into her throat—if she opened her mouth, it felt like it would jump straight out.
The surroundings grew quieter and quieter; everyone was waiting for what would happen next. Just then, the screens that had been playing Tang Wan’s solo exhibition were switched out and replaced by a video.
On the video you could clearly see it was some entrance. The shot looked a bit forbidden, but very quickly everyone sensed something was off.
"There’s someone over by the glass—look closely, everyone!"
Someone shouted, and everyone stared carefully at the screen.
Three people: Jiang Chengsi, Yu Zhen, and a woman they didn’t recognize. Judging from her look, she was probably Yu Zhen’s assistant. The two seemed to have run into him by accident.
Jiang Chengsi almost choked to death!
He’d just been talking gossip with Qi Zeyan, and his own house collapsed first.
It’s over—
He’d eaten melon until it landed on his own head.
He looked over at Tang Wan—if she was going to put out his video, she could at least give him a heads-up.
You couldn’t hear what they were saying in the video, but from this angle you could clearly see Jiang Chengsi’s impatience.
"Why do I smell something off here—what is Yu Zhen doing blocking Fourth Master like that?"
"Why does it feel like she doesn’t want to leave?"
"Come on, you can tell what she wants to do."
"Holy crap, here’s the key part. That—that’s not..."
In the shot, Si Qingxiao appeared leading a child. The kid’s face was covered with a cartoon graphic.
Then you saw Yu Zhen flee in panic.
When the video finished, Yu Zhen’s face was deathly pale, and everyone else was utterly shocked.
"This video is trying to show that Yu Zhen, towards Fourth Master..."
"No way, that blatant? And she got caught by the wife?"
"She looks like such a pure, innocent little girl. Weren’t they saying she’s pretty and kind-hearted? What is she pulling here? The whole world knows Fourth Master is married. This is a bit much, isn’t it?"
...
The crowd murmured among themselves. The male fans who liked Yu Zhen couldn’t sit still anymore. "You can’t even hear what they’re saying in that video. It doesn’t prove anything!"
Someone sneered, "You’re right, it doesn’t prove anything. Then why did she bolt in a blind panic the second she saw Fourth Master’s wife? That’s clearly a guilty conscience. You really can’t judge a book by its cover. She knows full well the man has a wife and still sticks herself to him. That kind of person is the most disgusting. Pretty and kind-hearted, my ass!"
"You..." The male fan was furious, almost rushing over to start a fight, but held back, afraid of getting thrown out.
Yu Zhen’s breathing was rapid. She had never imagined it would be that video. She let out an awkward, helpless little laugh:
"A-actually I just accidentally bumped into Fourth Master back then and knocked his things down. I only wanted to pay him back for them. There’s really nothing between us, nothing at all!"
As she spoke, she kept sneaking glances at Si Qingxiao.
Si Qingxiao was in the middle of talking to Ruan Mengxi, not paying her a bit of attention.
Jiang Chengsi looked over at Jiang Jinsang not far away, leaned in. "Jiang Xiaowu, what’s up with my sister-in-law? Why is she dragging me and Xiaoxiao into this?"
"What is this even? Do you know anything?"
"What is my sister-in-law trying to do, exactly? This whole thing, pulling me and Xiaoxiao in—did she at least pay us an appearance fee?"
...
Jiang Jinsang shot him a sidelong glance. "Who said you were being brought on stage?"
"Huh?"
"You’re not the main character."
Jiang Chengsi was dumbfounded. In this video, besides the few of them, was there anyone else?
If he wasn’t the main character, then who was?
