Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Panda Novel

Also, if they managed to capture some interesting bits of dialogue that harmed no one, they could upload it as a bonus for the fans on their official Weibo.

Although Lin Nuan’s acting wasn’t as good as Peng Yanzhi’s, and although she wasn’t as good as Peng Yanzhi at feigning weakness, Lin Nuan did know the show better than the latter.

Zhang Ruomin gazed at Peng Yanzhi. Seeing how Peng Yanzhi was acting, she spoke in a gentle voice, saying, “Don’t be afraid, say it…”

Peng Yanzhi clenched her fists, hoping she’d get lucky, and recounted the entire incident in an aggrieved manner. She spoke of how nervous she was since this was the first time she was taking part in the show, and she said that it was her fault for not coming out on time to go through the questions. Her manager and Miss Xia had gone through the questions, and she believed in Lin Nuan’s character and that the latter wouldn’t make things difficult for her on the show. Therefore, she didn’t want to hold up everyone’s time and wanted to go through the questions in a speedy manner, which was what led Lin Nuan to misunderstand her.

It sounded like Peng Yanzhi’s words weren’t false so far, so Lin Nuan couldn’t accuse Peng Yanzhi of lying.

However, there were several ways of saying something. A different choice of words and a different tone of voice could give off an entirely different vibe…

Peng Yanzhi wiped her tears with her hands, smudging the makeup on her face.

Zhang Ruomin handed Peng Yanzhi a tissue. “An actress should be most mindful of their own image. You won’t be pretty with your makeup all smudged!”

Peng Yanzhi looked flattered by the sudden show of attention as she received the tissue with both hands and bowed to Zhang Ruomin to show her thanks. She put on a perfect act of looking nervous and flustered.

Downstage, Peng Yanzhi’s fans were berating Lin Nuan in an even louder voice now…

“Our Little Rouge has explained herself already! Why are you still harping on about this and refusing to let the matter rest? Simply because you have reason on your side? Aren’t you being too arrogant?”

“Exactly! Even if our Little Rouge was in the wrong, she has already apologized with such a humble attitude, is that still not enough?”

“You’re simply doing this because our Little Rouge isn’t as famous as Su Manman and the rest. Didn’t someone say this earlier!”

That someone was referring to Miss Xia.

“The unfolding of events, please play my dialogue with Miss Peng from the start…” Lin Nuan spoke, her attitude the same as before. It was as if she wasn’t at all affected by this incident.

Upon hearing this, the color of blood drained completely from Peng Yanzhi’s face, making her appear all the more pitiful.

Miss Xia nodded at the crew…

The fans present were still discussing animatedly, scolding Lin Nuan or Peng Yanzhi depending on whose fans they were, making a din!

“I heard that you want to go through the questions with me. Why would you need to trouble the director to send someone to look for me? You could have just come to my dressing room!”

The minute they heard Peng Yanzhi’s voice, her fans shut up.

Peng Yanzhi’s voice sounded arrogant and disrespectful.

When it came to popularity, Lin Nuan ranked higher than Peng Yanzhi.

When it came to age, Lin Nuan was also older than Peng Yanzhi.

Regardless of how one looked at it, Peng Yanzhi should be the one going to Lin Nuan to go through the questions, not the other way round. For her to demand that Lin Nuan go to her dressing room to look for her, it wasn’t only impolite, but it also showed a lack of upbringing on her parents’ part.

“Twenty minutes before the show, the guests and host will have to go through the questions. I believe that your manager should have told you about this! Since you’re here to participate in the show, then you’ll have to abide by the show’s rules.”

Lin Nuan’s voice was clear, and there was a mild rage in her tone. However, everything she said was correct.

“My manager should already have told you what questions you should ask and what you shouldn’t! You don’t know? I’m not a tactful person. With you scribbling so much on these questions, who knows if any questions will go around in circles with a trap laid out for me?”

Peng Yanzhi’s fans gasped at this point.

If she had previously sounded impolite, what she said after that… was entirely over the line.

“Miss Peng, we are the ones recording the show. We won’t be able to get the message across with your manager being the one to pass on the words. Therefore, we’ll still need to go through the questions together!”

The audience heard how Lin Nuan remained patient and explained things, still wanting to go through the questions with Peng Yanzhi.

Who knew there were more surprising words to come from Peng Yanzhi subsequently, who said…

“This is how I’ve always done recordings for shows!”

She sounded arrogant and proud, making others unable to believe that this was the gentle and meek Peng Yanzhi she had displayed in front of her fans all along.

Then the director’s voice could be heard.

Later, Peng Yanzhi suddenly changed her tone of voice into a gentle and weak one as she explained to the director how her dress was damaged. She even tossed the blame over to Lin Nuan and accused her of being mad at her, apologizing afterward.

Throughout, Lin Nuan didn’t take advantage of her power to bully Peng Yanzhi. Every sentence and word she said was her trying to reason with the arrogant sounding Peng Yanzhi.

Peng Yanzhi’s fans had all quieted down. In the recording, Peng Yanzhi’s tone and the way she was challenging Lin Nuan… was like a slap in her fans’ faces, catching them off guard.

Lin Nuan’s fans didn’t harp on the issue or attack Peng Yanzhi’s fans either, merely saying that Peng Yanzhi’s acting was good enough to claim her a Best Actress Award—the way she was displaying two entirely different faces before and after the director appeared.

Someone also criticized Zhang Ruomin for standing out to act as a judge on this matter when she didn’t even know what happened, saying that she should focus on her acting career instead of doing something uncalled for like this in order to show what a great sense of justice she had.

Zhang Ruomin didn’t look good either.

Seeing this, the director had a headache. He asked Miss Xia, “Can we still record the show today?”

After things reached this state between the host and the guest, there was no way they could continue with the recording. However, after the entire crew spent so much time preparing everything, if they were just to call off the recording like that, the crew would have wasted their efforts.

Miss Xia was the one who got Peng Yanzhi on the show and implicated Lin Nuan. Since there was no way the recording could continue, Miss Xia gazed at the director apologetically…

The director sighed.

“Apologies, Director. I can’t get a guest to substitute for Peng Yanzhi since it’s so last minute…” Miss Xia’s intentions were clear. She wasn’t planning on continuing the show with Peng Yanzhi now.

“The show recording has to be done if it has to be done. Miss Xia, do you think that I’m worthy of being a guest?”

Lin Nuan looked towards the source of the deep and magnetic male voice…

They watched as Fu Huai’an entered the recording studio from outside, walking up the stage with his long and slim legs.

He was smartly dressed in a suit. Inside was a stiffly ironed white shirt, and he had no tie under his collar, which was left unbuttoned, revealing his sexy Adam’s apple. He appeared mature and steady, exuding the aura of a successful man, capturing everyone’s attention.

Fu Huai’an was holding a black knitted coat in his arm. He handed the coat and his leather gloves to Little Lu before walking up the stage.

“Huai… Huai’an!” Zhang Ruomin’s lips parted in disbelief as she watched the man walking towards them.

Under the bright lights on the stage, Fu Huai’an’s facial outline appeared deep and brooding. His vision naturally swept over Zhang Ruomin and then over to Miss Xia.

Miss Xia had always wanted to invite Fu Huai’an onto Lin Nuan’s show, just as everyone had been asking for. It was only because she was considerate of Fu Huai’an’s schedule that she had been hesitant about discussing the matter with Lin Nuan. Unexpectedly, Fu Huai’an himself asked to go on the show as a guest today. Miss Xia was pleasantly surprised. It was a blessing in disguise!
