Chapter 199: A High-Profile Declaration of Love – Is it a Relationship Between an Older Woman and a
Ning Yao couldn't sleep, so she logged onto her Weibo account in the middle of the night and started writing about her feelings.
I'm so happy to have finally found my long-lost son today!!!
After typing those words, Ning Yao fell silent.
Publicly acknowledging her son is too ostentatious. If Wen Tingye sees it, won't he ask her for the child?
We can't be so direct; we need to be more tactful and subtle.
【Today was so much fun! /smiley face @NingMoran】
She removed the first half and tagged her beloved son.
Ning Yao read it three times, and after confirming that there were no problems, she added a smiley face emoji and sent it.
After posting the message, Ning Yao ignored Weibo and went online to search for information about Ning Moran, reading it carefully.
The next day, at six o'clock in the morning.
Ning Yao was lying in bed in a daze when she was suddenly woken up by her phone vibrating.
She had been holding her phone while she was asleep, and now the phone started vibrating so loudly that it made her hand go numb.
"You actually managed to win over that genius boy, Ning Moran!"
"Is it really okay for you two to publicly show your affection on Weibo? I'm so jealous, even though I have a partner."
"You're like an old cow eating young grass, Yao Yao. You're a full five years older than her, while Ranran isn't even of legal marriage age yet!"
Yang Dongcha kept talking, while Chen Xuezong stood beside her with an indifferent expression.
After learning about Ning Yao and Ning Moran's affair, Chen Xuezong edited countless messages, but didn't send a single one.
"What nonsense is this?" Ning Yao's head was buzzing from Yang Dongcha's voice.
"Did you post a Weibo last night at midnight, and tag Ning Moran? Ning Moran reposted it within minutes of you posting it and responded to you. Isn't that showing off your love?" Yang Dongcha clicked her tongue in amazement.
Ning Yao scratched her hair with her fingers, her suspicion deepening in her eyes.
She just posted on Weibo expressing her joy at recognizing her biological son, how did it become a display of affection?
"You didn't see it, did you? It's trending on social media, and you're still labeled as Ning Moran's girlfriend!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Yao opened Weibo, clicked on the trending topics, and sure enough, the first headline in red was about her.
"The female CEO of a certain group company in the capital city publicly professed her love for a genius boy on Weibo..." Ning Yao finished reading the headline word by word, her face instantly turning ashen.
How can these media outlets write such nonsense?
She and Ranran are clearly mother and son, so why are they portrayed as lovers?
"Wen Tingye is indeed a bit old. When it comes to dating, you should choose someone younger. Younger, cute guys are all the rage these days, and they're in high demand. I won't bother you anymore. Enjoy yourself, and remember to introduce me to young Mo Ran when you go back to the capital!"
Yang Dongcha's tone gradually became perverted, and Ning Yao felt her mouth watering even through the screen.
Ning Yao wanted to explain, but Yang Dongcha had already hung up the phone.
Ning Yao's WeChat was suddenly bombarded with messages. She frowned and opened the messages, only to find that they were all from Mo Fei'ao.
She took a deep breath, sighing inwardly that she would find no peace today.
Zhao Xiaojing was filming, and Ning Yao watched for a while before turning her attention to Shu Jing'an on set.
She has a scene with Shu Jing'an later and wants to practice with him beforehand.
"Have you seen Senior Brother Shu?" Ning Yao asked Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue, somewhat puzzled.
Given Shu Jing'an's personality, he should have arrived much earlier, but he wasn't on the entire set. Could it be that he hadn't gotten up yet?
"He probably drank too much and has a headache. I'll take some honey water to my senior brother." Cui Mengmeng had prepared some honey water for Ning Yao to help with her hangover that morning, and there was still some left.
"I'll go with you."
Downstairs at the hotel, Ning Yao and Cui Mengmeng asked at the front desk for Shu Jing'an's room number before climbing the creaking steps.
"I thought the hotel here was alright, but compared to President Wen's villa, it's like heaven and earth..." Cui Mengmeng sighed.
Fortunately, her daughter Yao Yao is capable; otherwise, she and Xin Yujue wouldn't have received such good treatment.
But nothing comes for free. Luo Xiyao's ability to gain the appreciation and favor of President Wen is partly due to her own skills.
Cui Mengmeng was genuinely worried that the people in these wealthy circles were going too far and might hurt Luo Xiyao.
"President Wen, you don't have any strange fetishes, do you? Have you ever been bothered by anything?" Cui Mengmeng leaned close to Ning Yao's ear and asked with concern in a voice only the two of them could hear.
Upon hearing this, Ning Yao lost her footing and looked at her roommate with her beautiful eyes wide open.
What's she thinking about all day? Is it all just yellow rubbish?
"My relationship with President Wen is just a business partnership, don't overthink it," Ning Yao said casually, then quickened her pace.
"If you encounter any difficulties, remember to tell me. Don't keep it to yourself." Cui Mengmeng didn't ask any more questions. After giving this reassuring instruction, she shut up.
I waited by Shu Jing'an's door for a while, but no one inside opened the door.
Ning Yao felt something was very strange, so she called Shu Jing'an himself.
Shu Jing'an answered after ringing for a while. His voice sounded slightly tired, but he forced himself to speak to Ning Yao.
"I'm fine, it's just that the male lead was replaced. Someone offered a higher price and snatched the role away."
There are plenty of sycophants in the entertainment industry. In a film crew, the highest-ranking person besides the producer is the investor. More often than not, the producer's status is lower than that of the investor. Many film crews are led by the nose by the investors, and changing actors is commonplace.
Ning Yao fell silent, unsure of what to say to comfort Shu Jing'an.
"I happen to have another drama casting me as the second male lead, so I can focus on preparing for it." Shu Jing'an seemed to be trying to save face for himself, and also comforting Ning Yao.
"Does Director Guo know?" Ning Yao felt that Director Guo had a say in the crew. He thought highly of Shu Jing'an, so he wouldn't just stand by and watch him be replaced.
"Yes, I know," Shu Jing'an replied.
Ning Yao frowned slightly, realizing that since Director Guo was willing to accept the replacement, it meant that the other party must be someone of considerable importance.
Not only does he have the support of investors, but he also has acting skills, popularity, and he has even studied the roles that Shu Jing'an has taken on, ensuring that he can play them perfectly.
"Junior sister, don't worry, your position won't be changed for the time being," Shu Jing'an said, uttering a seemingly pointless statement.
He knew that Luo Xiyao had investors backing her up; otherwise, how could she be living alone in a small villa on set?
Moreover, Shu Jing'an saw Wen Tingye on the first day of school, and he clearly treated Luo Xiyao specially, even dotingly.
"I'll treat my senior to a meal after I go back to school," Ning Yao said softly.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two hung up the phone.
Cui Mengmeng didn't know what had happened, so she could only wait patiently for Ning Yao to finish her call before going up to ask.
Ning Yao told Cui Mengmeng what had happened, and Cui Mengmeng became indignant.
"Why replace Senior Brother Shu? He has been preparing for this drama for a long time."
"Besides, quite a few people already know that he took on this role, and being suddenly replaced will have a very negative impact on Senior Brother Shu!"
"No, I have to find a way to help Senior Brother Shu!" Cui Mengmeng turned around and was about to run to the film crew to talk to the leaders about this matter, but after running a few steps, she calmed down first.
She's Luo Xiyao's manager and assistant, so what right does she have to help Senior Shu?
Even if she could help, wouldn't her actions affect the production team's opinion of Luo Xiyao?
"Mengmeng." Ning Yao stepped forward, placed her hand on Mengmeng's shoulder, and gently comforted her.
"Not every time you put in a lot of effort to prepare, you will be rewarded. To remain invincible, you must make yourself strong, so strong that no one can easily shake your position."
