WNSYM Chapter 81.3

Chapter 81.3 - Preparing to go public as a couple 

Thanks to lurkerteacup for the chapter (1 / 2)

But despite that, with a public declaration of their relationship, fans’ attitudes were in line with what Chief Ning expected, with all of them wishing them happiness. 

In a second, the audience for the live stream reached tens of millions. 

Of course, there were also a lot of fans who were waiting for more drama to unfold. 

After all, Tang Xiao had never gone for long without a scandal, especially when the gossip mill said she was being paid for by Chief Ning. That was particularly juicy. 

So when Chief Ning was the host and was about to announce the award winner for ‘best producer’, everyone was waiting for him to look unhappy. 

Chief Ning calmly looked at the award winner list. “He’s a new person, he’s always been very hard working, and I appreciate him a lot. The winner of ‘best producer’ goes to Mu Cheng, for ‘Night Changan.” 

The online watchers instantly went into a frenzy, they really had to be careful of what they wished for. 

Everyone was acting like they’d been shot up with chicken’s blood, everyone was anticipating what was coming next and had their eyes peeled tight. 

Especially when they saw Chief Ning’s brows slightly furrow, some people online had already come up with an article with a few thousand words about how scandalous it was. 

Luckily the stream host didn’t allow for posted comments on screen, otherwise the screen would be filled with ‘---come, let’s fight, let’s die in a fight, ex-lover meets new lover, Tang Xiao should be with x, etc, etc’. 

A lot of people guessed a lot of things, but it was a pity they were all wrong. 

Chief Ning just passed the award to Mu Cheng, “Congratulations.” 

There was no scandal, no drama and nothing that was bad. 

It was as peaceful as a parent-teacher interview. 

Mu Cheng said a few congratulatory things and stepped off the stage. 

The award ceremony continued on. 

Online, people were stunned. That was it? 

There were a lot of experienced people in the film industry at the ceremony, so they all quickly calmed down and continued. 

A few media representatives had been forewarned by Chief Ning and Mu Cheng. 

What Tang Xiao really didn’t want to face was what was outside, the media and the internet. 

When Tang Xiao left, the outside was out of control. 

Countless cameras and microphones were in her face. 

Chief Ning and Mu Cheng had prepared in advance to exit from a side entrance. 

They charged through the reporters and headed directly for the car park and ushered her through. 

Once Tang Xiao made it to the car, she quickly drank some water, “You’re …” 

Mu Cheng looked at the rear window, “En, we said so earlier on. The fans can accept our relationship because they’ve had a year to accept it, they’ve become immune.” 

So it was premeditated. /

And even Song Changzheng knew this beforehand, Tang Xiao fumed. 

“You guys are too much! Not even telling the person involved!” 

Mu Cheng parked the car in the garage, undid his seatbelt and lifted up Tang Xiao’s chin, forcing her to look at his eyes. “And, when were you going to tell me?” 

“En?” Tang Xiao was a bit confused, tell him what? 

“I never thought that my girlfriend was actually Ning family’s second miss? En?” Mu Cheng said. 

Tang Xiao immediately changed her tune, embarrassed. “I didn’t hide it on purpose. This was all Chief Ning’s idea! Chief Ning said if I wanted to enter the entertainment circle, I had to hide my identity. Otherwise, because of my identity, it’d be too easy to hate on me. Afterwards, when we got together, he didn’t let me say because he wanted to see who you’d choose, the Mu family or me.” 

Originally, for the sake of entering the entertainment circle, the Ning family would’ve attracted criticism too easily, because it was so big. 

For safety’s sake, Chief Ning spent a lot of time and effort to make up an identity for her. 

When she debuted, he gave her a background: a poor student that steadily made their way up, giving her an encouraging type of character. 

Afterwards, when she got together with Mu Cheng, she thought of publicly releasing her actual identity and being open with Mu Cheng about it. 

But every time she wanted to, Chief Ning didn’t let her. 

He said that he still wanted to keep checking to see if it really was true love. 

Mu Cheng used his finger to wipe away some lipstick on her lips and then bit down on her lip, sucking hard. 

“I want both.” Mu family and Tang Xiao, he’d get them both. 

As for hiding her identity as the Ning family’s second miss, she really was at fault. 

So she let him bite her lip, and torment her. 

“When did you find out?” 

“When everything happened with my third uncle, Chief Ning mentioned the Ning family’s second miss so I spent some time investigating. Tang Xiao, do you know, what I felt when I found out that you were the Ning family’s second miss?” 

Mu Cheng pinched her face. “At that time, I’d bought up quite a few of my third uncle’s shares, I didn’t have any free time. Mu Yifang then told me to interact with the Ning family’s second miss, and I didn’t want to. Afterwards … luckily I found out that you were the second miss.” 

He wasn’t angry. He just felt extremely lucky that there was no conflict between his love and the family’s interest. 

And this went straight to Tang Xiao’s heart. 

She felt like her whole body was warmed up. 

At this time, he wasn’t happy that she was Ning family’s second miss, but he was worried about whether or not he’d get hurt. 

“Kiss.” Tang Xiao put her arms around his neck, pouting. 

Mu Cheng kissed her hard. 

After letting off some steam, his voice was low and husky in her ear, “Tang Xiao, in this lifetime, you can only be Mrs Mu.” 

“En.” Tang Xiao put her head against his chest. 

Mrs Mu, these two words, made her feel like a flower was blooming in her chest and spreading outwards, filling the whole car. 

Hello, Mr Mu. 

Afterwards, Tang Xiao asked Chief Ning if it was him in the background. 

Chief Ning looked at her innocently. 

Instead, it was Xiao Lin that added in, “Mom did say you should’ve brought your boyfriend back home but it was you and Mu Cheng who didn’t want to go public. Especially Ning Jing, this person is too sinister. He guessed that Mu Cheng had probably found out your identity and then purposely put out news that Ning family’s second miss wanted to marry someone else. When Mu Cheng heard that, he couldn’t keep it in any more. He decided to choose when there’d be a lot of people, at the Golden Orchid awards, so he could let everyone know.”  

Tang Xiao felt like, if her life was a game, Chief Ning wouldn’t definitely be the strongest final boss. 

That feeling that if a party went to fight it, all of them would be killed easily!! So sinister! 

Tang Xiao heard this and rolled her eyes. 

“You really think that’s why Chief Ning let us go public!! You’re too innocent! A lot of my advertising sponsorships are coming to an end, my films, so even if I got best supporting actress, there wouldn’t  be much difference. But if I had gone public with Mu Cheng, it’d be different. He’d get so much less money!!” 

Xiao Lin nodded her head in agreement. “It’s time to renew your contract with Spirit Road. Chief Ning has already helped you sign that.” 

“En? How much did you get?” Tang Xiao asked offhandedly. 

Xiao Lin swallowed. “None.” 

“F***, what do you mean, no money?” Tang Xiao was shocked. 

Xiao Lin continued, “En, no money but we got stock options.” 

Tang Xiao: …..!!!! Hidden final boss!! Dishonest capitalist!!!! 

“Chief Ning!! Quickly pay me!!!”  Tang Xiao ran and sang loudly, rushing to his office. 

“Quick, quick, quick! I need to recharge my game money, if I have shares in Spirit Road, then when I recharge money in game, I’m actually making money for myself!! Too smart!!”” 

Chief Ning: ......

Xiao Lin: ......
