Chapter 144: Jiang Xun Knows How The Entertainment Industry Run

“…” Jiang Xun asked in disbelief, “Is that what you meant?”

Mufeng looked at the camera.

How could he say that in front of the camera?

So he remained silent.

[CEO Qin: On the relationship between my seed of injustice and me]

When the filming of today’s program was nearing the end, Shi Shuli gathered the guests together and indicated that Jiang Xun and Mufeng would withdraw from the following filming of the program.

Jiang Xun faced the camera and said, “As I still have another project to do and an exam to prepare for, even if I don’t withdraw, I won’t be able to participate in a few episodes. Rather than that, I thought, why not I just withdraw and allow new guests in? I appreciate your support in these two episodes. I’m also delighted to be able to participate in this variety show. This is something I’ve never experienced before. So I’m very grateful for the director’s invitation.”

“Is it because Jiang Xun quit that CEO Qin will also quit?”

Following that, the camera cut to Mufeng. Mufeng said calmly, “I have a job, and I’m only here for this episode.”

[My favorite couple is not participating anymore. Who else should I ship then?]

[Don’t we have someone to suggest a couple?]

[Let’s ask! Jiang Xun and CEO Qin aren’t going on the show anymore. We can only take matters into our own hands now.]

After the filming ended, everyone took their luggage and left.

Mufeng sent Jiang Xun back without any hesitation.

The other guests didn’t know how to react.

“What’s going on? Are the two really together?” Ren Jiayi asked, feeling a little disappointed.

Did he not have any chance?

Luo Kesi pursed her lips and snorted. “They may know each other privately, but based on their interactions, they don’t look like they’re together. How can there not be some intimacy between lovers?”

“Exactly.” Song Tianqing echoed from the side. “Besides, Mufeng is used to seeing beautiful women. Jiang Xun is beautiful, but Mufeng has also seen more beautiful women. I remember that just last year, a female celebrity who was extremely popular once attended a business event, and coincidentally, Mufeng was there too. That female celebrity only said a few words to Mufeng during the event. After that, she started a rumor about her and Muqing and even got people to spread it.”

“Yes, I know about this too. It seems like she got people to take photos of them after the event. The photos were taken at a particular angle, and they looked at the pictures while talking. It seemed like they left the date in a low-key manner. After that, the female celebrity was asked about this in an interview. She even deliberately gave an ambiguous answer. It was so ambiguous that people had to make guesses. In the end, all the endorsements of that female celebrity were gone, and all her dates were gone. Now, she’s a nobody in the entertainment industry,” Kesi continued.

“So how could Mufeng relly like Jiang Xun?” Song Tianqing smirked. She was not confident about this.

Mufeng sent Jiang Xun back to Peking University.

On the way, Jiang Xun took out her phone and logged into Weibo.

The official ‘Unfulfilled Lovers’ Weibo had already announced that this was the last episode Jiang Xun would be participating in, and it was also the only episode Mufeng would be participating in.

[Unfulfilled Lovers V: The show is wonderful because of you guys. You are always welcome. @Mufeng @jiangXunjiang]

Jiang Xun shared this Weibo post with a caption: [Thank you very much, @shulii and everyone in the program team for taking care of me. It’s a pity I won’t be with everyone until the end. When I’m on vacation or have graduated, if I have the chance to still participate in Director Shi’s program, I will persevere until the end.”

Mufeng glanced at the space. “You are posting the Weibo post of officially withdrawing from the program?”

Jiang Xun responded, and Mufeng gave Jiang Xun his mobile phone. As face recognition was inconvenient when driving, he said to Jiang Xun, “The password is my birthday, 1025. You can use my Weibo to help me post one too.”

Jiang Xun used the password to unlock his phone and turned around to advise him. “You can’t do this!”

Mufeng looked at her in confusion.

“How can you tell me your password so casually? Aren’t you aware of privacy and security at all?” Jiang Xun opened the App Store to search for something as she said, “I’ll help you download an anti-fraud app and ask Yicheng for an anti-fraud guidebook. You should go back and study it well.”

Mufeng pinched the corner of his eyes in exhaustion. He wanted to ask if there was still hope for this girl. “You’re not just anyone else.”

Jiang Xun’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. At this moment, it was as if she had suddenly understood something. She wondered if Mufeng’s words were exactly how she understood them.

Her fingertips trembled nervously, and she almost canceled the download.

As the app was downloaded, Jiang Xun tapped into Mufeng’s Weibo again. “What do you want to say?”

“Just say that I have the same thoughts as Jiang Xun.” Mufeng tapped lightly on the steering wheel with his fingertips. His voice carried a hint of a smile.

“Can’t you think about it yourself?” Jiang Xun said unhappily.

Mufeng felt helpless. He turned the steering wheel and found a space where he could park his car. He turned around and held the steering wheel with one hand while he looked at Jiang Xun calmly.

It was rare for the steel-straight Jiang Xun to become weak from Mufeng’s gaze.

“I’m willing to share the same thing as you.” Mufeng raised his eyebrows. “Don’t you think this is very sweet?”

Jiang Xun passed the phone to Mufeng as if it was hot. “Since you’ve already parked the car, post it yourself!”

Initially, it was fine if Mufeng hadn’t said anything. She could still post it according to what Mufeng said.

However, now that Mufeng said it, she understood what he meant.

Her head was so hot that it was going to explode. She couldn’t help Mufeng post it anymore.

Mufeng took the phone with a faint smile. As he had said earlier, he shared the post on Weibo, “Jiang Xun’s words are what I want to say.”

After posting it, he passed the phone to Jiang Xun while driving.

Jiang Xun was surprised.

‘This is your phone. Why are you giving it to me?’

The phone screen was still on Weibo.

Jiang Xun couldn’t help but look at what Mufeng had posted.

After taking a closer look, Jiang Xun put Mufeng’s phone back and used her phone to open the Weibo post that Mufeng had posted.

[CEO Qin personally started the fire???]

[The two of you have only been on one episode, and you both quit. Are you two already together?]

[The commenter above, you have really bold ideas! But it makes sense!]

[Indeed. Is it possible that the two are already together, and that’s why they quit the show? After all, the point of this show is to show couples who are not quite a couple yet. Since the two of you are already in a relationship, you can’t participate anymore.”

The audience became bolder and bolder as she read the comments. Finally, she simply posted another Weibo post.

@JiangXunJiang: [Single]

[Jiang Jiang, when will you be together with great CEO Qin? Can you get rid of your single status?]

[You’re not together yet?”]

[Wow, the main character came out personally to refute the rumors.]

[Hehe, trying to send rumors about her and Mufeng on the one hand and then refuting the rumors on the other. Jiang Xun knows how the entertainment industry runs.]
