Chapter 126

“Little Yueyue, I miss you. Do you miss me?”

The number was an unfamiliar one, unsigned.

That feeling of being cheated on struck Leng Yao once again.

He stormed into the kitchen with his phone in hand and said coldly, “Yu Yue, who is this?”

Yu Yue was startled by his anger.

She glanced at the phone and shook her head, “I don’t know.”

“You don’t know? Hah.” Leng Yao’s eyes grew colder.

“Are you seeing someone behind my back again?”

“Leng Yao, what do you mean by that? What do you mean ‘again’? When have I ever gone out looking for someone?”

The matter with Chu Tianhao was her scar.

The man she loved not only refused to help heal her wounds, but cruelly tore them open every time.

“Then tell me, who is this?”

“How would I know which lunatic it is? There’s no signature!”

“Not talking, huh?” Leng Yao grabbed her and pressed her onto the counter, knocking the vegetables to the floor.

Yu Yue struggled desperately. She hated it when he acted like this.

“Leng Yao, let me go!”

But Leng Yao ignored her, pulling off her dress and unzipping his pants…

Yu Yue shed tears of humiliation.

She didn’t understand why things had come to this.

Just over a month ago, she had been dreaming of becoming a top star, and those she wanted revenge on were supposed to face retribution.

Why? Why did it turn out like this?

Though they were performing the most intimate act, their hearts grew further and further apart.

“Cut! Congratulations to Yunche on wrapping up!”

Lu Yunche, playing an important supporting male role, had finally finished filming after more than a month.

“Congratulations, congratulations!”

The staff came over to congratulate him.

The script supervisor handed Lu Yunche a red envelope—it was tradition, since his character died in the end.

Lu Yunche nodded one by one.

“Thank you.”

The staff marveled at the scene once again.

It was said that Lu Yunche had two faces, polite in public but notoriously irritable in private.

However, after working together for over a month, they hadn’t seen him lose his temper even once.

There were video proofs of his old behavior—it wasn’t just rumors.

The change could only be attributed to the power of love.

In truth, Lu Yunche’s previous irritability stemmed from insomnia and nyctophobia.

(T/N:  an extreme and irrational fear of the dark or night that can affect people of all ages.)

He couldn’t sleep at night without medication, and the lack of proper rest naturally soured his mood.

But that day, when he accidentally fell asleep on the sofa with Su Hua, he discovered that as long as Su Hua was by his side, he could sleep peacefully.

Thus, Su Hua became Lu Yunche’s human pillow.

Poor Su Hua, holding such a beauty every night but unable to ‘eat’—how frustrating.

Lu Yunche recorded some more behind-the-scenes clips and interviews before packing up to leave with Su Hua.

The staff felt reluctant to see them go.

Sigh, now that the ‘wealthy patron’ was leaving, there wouldn’t be such good treatment anymore.

The location was deep in the mountains.

Su Hua and Lu Yunche had to stay a night in the county town before catching a flight back to the capital the next day.

At the hotel, they shared a room as usual, while the makeup artists and assistants each had their own.

Su Hua collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep immediately, not even news about the main actors could stir her interest.

The next morning…

The group headed to the airport.

After passing the check-in counter, they waited for their flight.

Lu Yunche leaned on Su Hua’s shoulder, sleeping with his arm wrapped around hers.

He wore a baseball cap and sunglasses, but his delicate and handsome features were still faintly visible.

Su Hua wore a matching baseball cap, holding a tablet and playing a game.

“Excuse me, are you Gu Hua?”

Su Hua looked up at the round-faced girl before her and nodded, “Who are you?”

The round-faced girl was overjoyed.

Just as she was about to exclaim, Su Hua made a shushing gesture and pointed to Lu Yunche sleeping beside her.

The round-faced girl was even more excited, her face flushed red.

“I-I… Miss Gu, can I take a picture with you?”

Su Hua’s eyes lit up.

Finally, someone recognizes my beauty? I knew it! Even if I’m not a celebrity, I’ll still have loyal face fans.

The round-faced girl hadn’t expected Su Hua to be so approachable.

After taking several photos together, she reluctantly left and sat not far away.

Actually, she had recognized Su Hua because of Lu Yunche.

She posted excitedly online: “I can’t believe it! I ran into Lu Yunche at this small-tier city airport! Ahhh, I’m so excited! Miss Gu was super nice and took so many photos with me! And Lu Yunche was sleeping sweetly on her shoulder. So cute!”

She attached a six-photo collage.

The girl was a web novelist with a decent following.

Her post quickly gained traction.

“Oh my god, your luck is amazing!”
“Miss Gu is so cool!”
“Ever since the green hat incident, I’ve been a fan of Miss Gu.”
“Miss Gu is gorgeous. Ever considered debuting as a star?”
“Do you guys have no standards? Lu Yunche and Gu Hua are scumbags. Why like them?”

Before netizens could roast that comment, Su Hua replied herself:

“If you don’t like us, do you like yourself instead? Trash.”
“Not considering a debut, I just want to be his manager.”

In recent years, people had already exhausted their insults against Lu Yunche.

There was so much scandal that at times it felt fake.

But the insults persisted because Yu Yue had kept feeding the narrative with hired trolls.

Now that the trolls were gone, fewer people actively targeted Lu Yunche.

Moreover, since signing with Xingquan, Lu Yunche had remained low-key and inactive on social media.

Any updates about him came through Su Hua.

Su Hua had a blunt personality, frequently clashing with netizens online and leaving them doubting their own existence.

Her honesty about the entertainment industry earned her both love and hate.

She was also known for her generosity—many netizens had received red envelopes from her.

It’s hard to criticize someone who’s so giving.

Beautiful, wealthy, business-savvy, with a good family background, devoted to her boyfriend, and generous—there wasn’t much to dislike about her.

Although her attitude could be infuriating at times, netizens couldn’t bring themselves to hate her.

Because Su Hua lived authentically—saying what she wanted, doing what she felt like, without caring about others’ opinions.

She was living the life everyone dreamed of.

The round-faced girl noticed the comments under her post and quickly sent Su Hua a private apology.

Su Hua didn’t mind and replied, “It’s okay.”

When the girl looked up, she met Su Hua’s warm smile, and her face turned beet red.

“Miss Gu is so handsome! Ahhh!”

SpendthriftV:“Wow, unbelievable. Another green hat incident.”
