Chapter 515: Bloodless Throat-Slitting
With the conversation reaching this point, Shen Yan felt it was about time to retreat, so he said, "Teacher He, you all continue with the recording; I won't disturb you further."
"Alright, it was a pleasure meeting President Shen today. Let's chat again next time." Teacher He did not continue to pester Shen Yan.
The effect of this episode was already maxed out, and the ratings would definitely be through the roof.
However, at this moment, Xie Fengdian on the side started causing trouble again.
"Wait, President Shen, I have some things I'd like to consult you about."
As soon as Shen Yan heard this, he knew who was on the other end: "You must be Teacher He's partner, Xie Fengdian, right? What do you want with me?"
Xie Fengdian's face turned green; if the show's post-production team did their job well, they would definitely add a dark cloud over her head and a green-face special effect to her face.
A brilliant reaction meme was born right then and there.
"Who gave me that nickname? My name is Xie Meina, okay?"
"Is that so? My apologies. I saw netizens calling you that, and at the time, I was even wondering why someone would choose that name," Shen Yan said, feigning surprise.
Teacher He lived up to his reputation as a professional teammate and immediately added a jab: "I can testify that netizens do indeed refer to Nana that way."
"I can testify too!"
"I saw it as well."
One by one, the others chimed in to pile on, while Xie Fengdian put on an act, performing a heart-wrenching reaction for the audience.
"You all misunderstood me. I'm actually a gentle and quiet little woman; I only act like this in front of the camera."
This remark drew a chorus of boos.
Believe that, my foot; you old hag are truly wicked.
Xie Fengdian didn't mind and continued to strike up a conversation with Shen Yan: "President Shen, let me state one thing first: I am from Deyang, Sichuan. What did you mean earlier when you said finding a Sichuan-Chongqing girl would guarantee a life as happy as an immortal's?"
Teacher He's expression changed, and he secretly gave her a look, but Xie Fengdian turned a blind eye. Shen Yan, however, didn't feel anything was amiss and replied, "It was just a joke. Besides, you shouldn't be asking me; those with experience have the most say, and what's online is their heartfelt voice."
"I don't know who gave Sichuan-Chongqing girls the nickname 'Chuan Yu Tyrannosaurus'."
"I won't comment much on that. To each their own; some men are just happy to be henpecked. Being hit is affection, and being scolded is love; this is precisely their way of exchanging emotions."
"But it's spreading like wildfire online now, seriously increasing the difficulty for Sichuan-Chongqing girls to find boyfriends," Xie Fengdian continued to express her dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, the several hosts, including Teacher He, frowned.
This Xie Fengdian was at it again; she didn't even check the occasion to seek attention, and she ignored all the signals being sent to her.
Sigh! So exhausting!
"Did you see it with your own eyes?" Shen Yan countered.
Xie Fengdian said with a bitter face: "Take me for example. The day before yesterday, I finally took a liking to a handsome young man, but as soon as he heard I was from Sichuan, he turned and ran without even looking back. Don't you think I'm being wronged?"
"Ahem!" Shen Yan cleared his throat and deliberately slowed his speech, giving the impression of someone who was hesitant to speak: "Analyzing problems should be done from a rational and objective perspective. Is there a possibility that the problem isn't with your hometown, but due to other reasons?"
"Look here, Sichuan-Chongqing girls have sweet and lovely appearances, and a single 'guai guai' can leave countless men spellbound, even if they are told 'Laozi is at Mount Shu', they are still happy to accept it."
"So, you can't just look at the surface of things. One should reflect on oneself three times a day, follow the good and correct the bad, and not immediately shift the blame to others when encountering problems."
Holy crap!
Xie Fengdian's face turned green again like a vegetable leaf; she felt like she was being 'pua'd', and she opened her mouth but found no way to refute him.
Truly, she realized she had met her match.
His thinking was agile, his tongue was impossibly sharp, and he spoke in a refined manner, calm and composed, giving off the feeling of someone with a belly full of poetry and books.
Arguing with such a person, even if you were in the right, you would lose three points, let alone someone like her who was forcing a conflict.
The live audience was amused by Shen Yan's rhetoric again; this heaven-favored son not only had superb emotional intelligence, but his way of roasting people was also bloodless and fatal—it was truly too interesting.
Teacher He suppressed his laughter and said, "President Shen, if you have things to do, please go ahead. Nana is a bit of a wild child; please don't mind her."
"Alright! I wish your show great success. To the audience friends at the scene, bye-bye!" Shen Yan offered his blessings politely.
Beep!
After the call ended, Teacher He couldn't help but sigh: "Each generation of talent emerges, leading the way for hundreds of years. Meeting such a young talent today, I suddenly feel like my youth is slipping away."
Xu Zheng chimed in: "Indeed, he's only 19, exactly half my age. We are clearly the same species, so why is the gap so large?"
Bo Ge: "Enough, enough! Can we not mention it? My fragile heart is shattered into pieces."
"Hahaha!"
Shen Family.
Seeing the call finally end, Chen Shanni, who had been lying on Shen Yan's chest with stars in her eyes, could no longer hold back and pecked him on the cheek.
"You are so amazing; you can talk freely in any situation."
This little fan-girl posture filled Shen Yan with a sense of accomplishment. He raised his hand to stroke her little head, his eyes unconsciously revealing a trace of tenderness and doting.
"Just some polite social talk; you'll be able to do it too in the future."
"I don't care, you're just the most amazing one anyway."
As she spoke, the star-struck Chen Shanni was about to offer her red lips, but Shen Yan turned his head and dodged it.
At the thought of having just kissed Yin Yezi, Shen Yan couldn't bring himself to do it.
"What's wrong?" Chen Shanni looked at him in confusion.
Shen Yan said half-truthfully: "I have something to tell you. The privacy of this residential complex is too poor. Now that my fame is growing, living here is quite inconvenient, so I plan to move out tonight."
Originally, Shen Yan had planned to move in a while, but after what happened with Yin Yezi just now, he felt guilty and wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.
If we can't afford to offend, can't we at least hide?
Chen Shanni was stunned; it wasn't that she thought anything was wrong, but it was too sudden: "Then where are you planning to move? Have you found a place?"
"Yes, about 1 kilometer past Renmin Road, at the Qilixiangdu complex. I bought a large flat there. The environment is quite good, two elevators for one household, and the privacy and independence are excellent."
"Then what about me? Yezi is here, and I can't get away."
Chen Shanni pouted her lips high. With Shen Yan moving away, she would no longer be able to stick to his side as often as before.
At this moment, Chen Shanni suddenly thought about how much better it would be if this younger sister hadn't appeared.
Anyway, her parents were not around, so she could move over with Shen Yan without any worries.
Shen Yan gave a warm smile: "It's not like we're far apart, it's only 1 kilometer, you can go over anytime."
"Alright then!"
Chen Shanni agreed reluctantly; such a residential compound with many people and prying eyes was indeed not suitable for Shen Yan to live in right now.
