A person in Wuha: The whole internet is urging me to get back together with my ex!

Upon hearing Chen Ye's words, Deng Chao stuffed the last bite of steak into his mouth, chewing until his cheeks were bulging.

"Don't even mention it. Xiao Di just got a phone call and rushed out. We haven't seen her for ages."

"I sent Xiao Lu to check on him, but he's like throwing good money after bad, he hasn't come back for ages."

Deng Chao picked up the cup and took a sip of milk.

"How about you go over there, Noko? She's probably on the deck."

Chen Ye casually tossed the peeled egg into Song Yuqi's bowl.

"Come on, it's no big deal. They're probably just out enjoying the sea breeze and talking about life. They'll be hungry and come back soon."

He leaned back in his chair, grabbed a piece of toast, and tore it apart to eat.

Do you think Chen Ye would abandon his delicious breakfast to become Lu Han's bodyguard, this pure love goddess? No way.

The group of people chatted and ate in a lively atmosphere.

The production team also timed it perfectly, getting the day's activities in order.

As soon as the live stream camera focused on the dining table, hundreds of thousands of viewers who had been waiting in the black-screen chat room flooded in, and a dense barrage of comments immediately filled the entire screen.

"It's finally airing! Those Weibo posts from Chao Ge and He Ge last night were so cool!"

"Where is Chen Ye? Is there any man in the entertainment industry more ruthless than Brother Ye?"

"Look, my brother Yezi is feeding his sister-in-law! Who's going to do something about these two, stop this shameless display of affection?!"

About ten minutes later.

The porridge on the table was almost gone, but there was still no movement from the aft deck.

This time, not only Deng Chao and his group, but even the viewers in the live stream started to understand what was going on.

"Hey? Where are Silly Roe Deer and Dilraba? What happened to our two most handsome huskies? They got eaten!"

"I really haven't seen him. He was gone right after the show started. Did he go to some island for a secret rendezvous?"

"Could they have gone to play an escape room game? Or did they hold hands while dancing yesterday and then get married backstage today?"

Chen Ye glanced down at the wildly jumping comments on the screen, then looked up at the door.

He really hasn't come back.

Are these two turtles? They take so long to walk.

Now that public opinion has just turned around, anti-fans and those entertainment companies hiding in the shadows are scrutinizing every possible trigger on Weibo and Douban.

If Lu Han and Dilraba are out of the public eye for too long, these fans will have wild imaginations and might make up all sorts of stories about their relationship.

Female celebrities are often the ones who get the most criticism and the harshest attacks from the public in these kinds of scandals.

"Alright, stop having doubts."

Chen Ye stood up from the chair and wiped his hands.

"I'll trouble myself to go and see if those two elementary school students fell into the sea to feed the fish."

Song Yuqi was chewing on a sausage when she heard this, and she quickly raised her chin.

"Honey, I'll go with you!"

Chen Ye reached out and gently flicked her forehead.

"Sit still, eat your sausage. The sea breeze outside is too strong; if it gives my precious rich girl a cold, who's going to give me the start-up capital?"

Song Yuqi's cheeks flushed from his irreverent words. She glared at him reproachfully and obediently sat back down.

"Hurry back! I want to eat shrimp eggs when you get back!"

"Okay, okay, you busybody." Chen Ye rolled his eyes, turned to look at the old dishes on the table, and said, "Which way do I go? Can you give me some directions?"

Deng Chao pointed with his chopsticks to the iron gate on the right side of the restaurant.

"Go out through that door, and there's a shaded relaxation area outside. That's where Xiao Di ran when she got the phone call."

Chen Ye waved his hand, stuffed the remaining half of the toast into his mouth, and swayed out of the restaurant.

The corner of the top deck of the cruise ship is blocked by two huge central air conditioning outdoor units, creating a natural blind spot.

Before Chen Ye even got close, he caught the sound of a pair of voices speaking in a tense atmosphere.

One voice was furious.

"Who cares what they think! If it's not working, just leave! What's there to be afraid of?!"

Another voice was sharp and helpless, with a hint of crying.

"Lu Han, are you crazy! This isn't just about you! Do you think this is child's play?! Go back right now!"

Gee tut.

Look at this dramatic performance! Even the screenwriters of today's melodramatic soap operas would have to offer them cigarettes.

Chen Ye didn't say anything, and lazily turned the corner with his hands in his pockets.

In the shadow of the corrugated iron sheet at the corner.

Lu Han leaned against the iron railing, her usually smiling face now tense, her chest heaving rapidly.

Across from her, Dilraba was holding her phone.

She leaned against the wall, tears still clinging to her long eyelashes, her beautiful black hair disheveled by the wind from her excitement.

Upon hearing the noise, the two turned their heads simultaneously as if they had been electrocuted.

When Lu Han's fierce anger caught in her eyes, she paused for a moment when she saw Chen Ye's face.

Dilraba hurriedly raised her hand and wiped her eyes with her sleeve, trying to force out her signature business smile.

"N-nothing...nothing, Nozomi, how did you find your way here? Have you finished eating?"

Dilraba's smile was uglier than her crying.

Chen Ye leaned against the metal sheet of the air conditioner outdoor unit.

He reached into his pocket, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, took one out, put it in his mouth, but didn't light it.

"Why am I here? You two have been here for half an hour. Brother Chao thought you were doing a desert island survival exercise, so he sent me to bring you some kindling."

Chen Ye's gaze swept back and forth across the two faces a few times.

"Stop pretending! What's going on? Just say what's wrong. Look at the two of you looking so uncomfortable."

Chen Ye continued his sharp-tongued remarks as always.

"If we run out of money, I'll find a bridge hole and set up a stall for you guys. If we run into enemies... look at my physique, I might as well take a few hits for you."

Dilraba lowered her head and fidgeted with the back of her phone.

"It's nothing...it's just...just a minor adjustment to my personal schedule. Let's go, we'll head back to the restaurant right away."

Chen Ye's lips curled up slightly, just as he was about to make a few sarcastic remarks.

"Screw your tweaking!"

Lu Han, who was standing to the side, suddenly took a step forward, and the anger that had been building up in her heart finally exploded.

"It's all because of that disgusting, bloodsucking company of hers! They're inhuman!"

Lu Han blushed, pointed at the phone in Reba's hand, and roared through gritted teeth.

"Her company just called! They gave a death order: Xiao Di must be immediately removed from the recording of our show 'Five Ha'! They're also forcing her to attend some damn commercial performance!"

"They say the show didn't generate enough buzz for them, and that they left loopholes in the contract! Now they're threatening to breach the contract and take them away!"

Chen Ye raised an eyebrow.

That's a really good move.

Snatching guests directly from the production team to rush them to a commercial performance? How much fake alcohol must someone have been drinking to pull off such a stunt?

"Lu Han! Shut up!!"

Reba rushed over in a fit of rage to cover his mouth, but she was no match for the already enraged young roe deer.

"Let me speak!" Lu Han pulled her hand away.

"Yezi! Do you know what happened back then? It was them!"

"Back when we were on Running Man, Xiao Di and I were doing great! But because of this disgusting company, they were constantly causing trouble, setting traps, being sarcastic, releasing smear articles to suppress us, preventing us from contacting each other, and ultimately forcibly breaking us up!"

"I wanted to protect her, but she was being silly and wouldn't let me say a word. I was so anxious watching her!"

Lu slapped the railing.

"Now that things have come to this point, that lousy company is using the same tactics they used on me on her!"

"I offered to pay that damn breach of contract penalty for her and get her out of those people's clutches, but she absolutely refused!"

The sea breeze whistled past.

No one spoke.

Reba was like a deflated balloon, her whole body went limp, she buried her face in her hands, squatted on the ground and sobbed softly.

"What gives you the right to make decisions for me...? That breach of contract penalty is astronomical... You're a top star, you helped me this time, what are people going to write about me now?"

"I told you, I can endure it... It's just two years, I'll be free once the contract expires two years ago..."

"Two years! In two years, these vampires will have drained you dry!" Lu Han's eyes turned red, and she rushed over to squat down.

While both of them were caught up in this heart-wrenching and extremely tragic drama.

Chen Ye standing next to the air conditioner.

His heart exploded into a dazzling display of fireworks!

What the hell!

Heaven is helping me!

What does it mean to have someone bring you iced tea when you're thirsty, and a beautiful woman deliver a latex pillow when you're sleepy?!

This is what you call a stroke of good fortune!

I was just wondering how to bring Reba over.

result?

This lousy company stepped on the gas and plunged straight off a cliff!

Five stars for these unscrupulous workshop operators! They're exactly what I wanted!

He composed his facial expression.

His face immediately switched to his usual sarcastic and disdainful expression.

"Alright, are you acting out an idol drama?"

Chen Ye looked directly past Lu Han at Reba on the ground.

"You're crying like your house has collapsed over something as trivial as these two pennies?"

"If I were you guys back then, I would have slapped that agent's face until it was a pig's head, and I still wouldn't have been able to buy that plane ticket with this sad look on my face."

Lu Han was furious when she heard his sarcastic remarks.

"Yezi! This isn't something you can just laugh about! This isn't just a personal grudge between us!"

"This involves that vampire-like multi-million dollar performance-based contract and the artist's full breach of contract! If things really escalate, the company can use its legal team to lock down all of her gigs for two years!"

"Forget about that mouth of yours," Chen Ye rolled his eyes at him.

"Back then, you were pretty tough when you went and publicly announced your relationship with someone else just to spite that girl. Now, a few words from you and you've turned yourself into a pathetic loser?"

The mere mention of that sordid matter caused Lu Han's previously soaring momentum to deflate completely, like a red balloon punctured by a needle. His handsome face turned bright red, and he shut his mouth.

"Sister Dilraba".

Chen Ye took two steps forward and looked down at this top celebrity who usually dazzled everyone on the red carpet but was now squatting in the sea breeze, shedding tears.

"I only have one question for you. What exactly is the situation with this Jiahe Company?"

"If you're going to sell off your two years of golden development for a pittance just for a few tens of millions, then you really should go and get your IQ fixed by Brother Chao."

Dilraba sniffed her red nose and lifted her face from her forearm.

Perhaps because Lu Han had torn away her last fig leaf, or perhaps because she felt that there was nothing left to hide after everyone had seen her shameful state, she bit her dry lips.

His voice carried a weariness that had been suppressed for a long time.

"After Sister Mi left, the entire internal structure changed."

Dilraba wiped away her tears.

"Right now, all I see here are quotas and insane exploitation. It's one thing that they don't provide me with a professional PR team, but now they won't even provide me with a personal stylist or makeup artist to coordinate my outfits for variety shows when I go out on assignments..."

"All they wanted was to use me to make quick, low-quality money to cover their investment losses."

"I don't even... I don't even have the right to turn down a completely tasteless, nonsensical announcement anymore."

Chen Ye's eyes lit up when he heard this!

Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!

A top-tier actress was so tormented by her management company that she had to borrow costumes and props herself just to make a public appearance.

Those vampires are afraid that their money tree won't be cut down by others, so they're spraying pesticides on its roots with shovels!

Lu Han, standing to the side, clenched her fists so tightly they cracked, as if she wanted to smash the wall at the company entrance.

While these two were still deeply mired in boundless pain and sorrow, unable to extricate themselves...

Chen Ye abruptly interrupted the entire group's suppressed emotional flow.

"Alright, wipe away your tears. If you want to cry, go borrow a bottle of mineral water from Lao Wang later. You can earn money for two shots by acting in a crying scene."

He stretched out his foot and kicked the edge of his hot bar shoe.

"It's just a contract termination, right? Sister Dilraba, I can take care of this for you."

"Turn your damned vampire contract into a pile of worthless paper, and incidentally, let you rightfully and completely free yourself from that black pit."

He leaned forward, staring at Reba, who was still dumbfounded.

"However, I don't do charity work."

"I can help you solve all of this, but..."

Chen Ye deliberately dragged out his words.

"We need to discuss some terms."
