Chapter 457

"Hello, Sister Wang, what's wrong?"

After the call connected, Chen Mo asked quickly.

"Thank heavens, Momo, you're finally awake, hurry and look at the trending searches!"

Sister Wang said to Chen Mo.

Trending searches?

He opened his phone and took a look at the mobile trending searches.

Good heavens.

He only glanced at it; out of the ten items on the trending list, nine contained his name.

The first item on the trending list was about him and Avril having good news approaching and having already met the parents.

"Momo, did you see it? The popularity is too high right now; we can find ways to lower the popularity domestically, but the whole international community is in an uproar, and everyone thinks you and Avril are about to get engaged. Do you need to make a statement?"

Wang Jinghua’s tone was a bit anxious...

Although the image Chen Mo had always cultivated was an uninhibited one, it would be a lie to say this incident had no impact on him.

There were still many of Chen Mo’s fans who were unwilling to accept this.

"Momo, if you want to clarify this, I'll hold a press conference right now."

Wang Jinghua said to Chen Mo.

"No need, just ignore it."

Scrolling through Weibo, Chen Mo yawned.

He didn't take this matter to heart.

"But..."

Wang Jinghua wanted to say something more.

"People who truly like me won't stop liking me because of this kind of news. Besides, it's not like I won't get married in the future; I'll always have to face this kind of public opinion, no need to worry about it."

Chen Mo was exceptionally clear-headed.

That was indeed the case.

Chen Mo was a singer and an actor, not one of those current so-called idols.

He spoke with strength and works; as long as the quality of his works was strong enough, it didn't matter if his "house collapsed" or not.

"Alright then, I'll listen to you and won't worry about this matter."

Wang Jinghua nodded.

The two spoke a few more words, and Chen Mo hung up the phone.

Chen Mo was preparing to take a nap, but just as he was about to lie down, his bedroom door was pushed open.

Immediately after, Yang Mi walked in from outside with a fierce aura.

"We haven't seen each other for just two days, and you're already getting engaged to someone else?"

Yang Mi walked to Chen Mo’s bed, her face full of anger.

"You're getting married? And the groom isn't me?"

Chen Mo said with a smile.

????

What the heck?

Yang Mi was originally still angry, but after hearing Chen Mo’s singing, she was completely stunned.

"Avril just moved next door to my house; I happened to run into her when I came back yesterday, and it just happened to be caught by paparazzi."

Taking advantage of Yang Mi’s confusion, Chen Mo explained.

"Really?"

Actually, just listening to Chen Mo speak, Yang Mi’s anger dissipated by more than half.

It wasn't like she didn't know about the relationship between Chen Mo and Avril.

During those years they were separated, Chen Mo was developing in the United States, and he and Avril met during that time.

It could be considered as making up for the void left by her and Liu Yifei not being by Chen Mo’s side.

Compared to other women, Yang Mi could accept Avril more easily.

She just couldn't stand Chen Mo not giving her a heads-up before such a big scandal broke out.

She thought Avril was going to move straight into Chen Mo’s house to live.

"Of course it's true, you don't think if I brought her home, my mom wouldn't break my legs?"

Chen Mo said exaggeratedly.

Hearing Chen Mo say this, Yang Mi finally believed what he said.

"Hmph, alright then, but I also want to move next door to your house."

Yang Mi thought for a moment and said seriously.

Originally, she had been envious of Liu Yifei being able to live next door to Chen Mo, and now that even Avril had moved in, it made Yang Mi feel itchy inside.

"Why go through all that trouble? Can't you just live at my house?"

Chen Mo scratched his head.

It wasn't like Yang Mi hadn't lived at his house before.

"Hee hee, I was waiting for you to say that!"

Looking at Chen Mo, Yang Mi smiled very happily, having completely thrown the matter of Avril to the back of her mind.

After some time, the news about the scandal indeed slowly faded away.

Just as Chen Mo said, his career didn't experience much fluctuation, and his fan count didn't decrease in the slightest.

Most people who liked Chen Mo were attracted by his talent; as for Chen Mo’s private life, they didn't want to pay attention to it at all.

Besides, Chen Mo had never established a "single" persona, so even if he and Avril got married, the fans would at most wail a few times.

They would continue to like Chen Mo as they always had.

Soon, the second episode of *The Longing for Life* aired.

Compared to the first episode, the guests’ performances on the show were much more natural, especially when Sha Yi came; the audience almost died laughing.

"This show is truly a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry."

"Look at Sha Yi’s little eyes doubting life."

"No, I'm dying of laughter; other shows try their best to pamper the guests, but they try their best to prank the guests."

"Who would have thought that coming on this show meant actually doing real work?"

"When is the next episode airing? I can't wait."

Viewers were now quite looking forward to the next episode of *The Longing for Life*; this show was too funny.

Whether it was the resident guests playing a battle of wits with the production team, or the resident guests pranking the guest stars into doing work.

In short, this show had plenty of entertainment value.

And it was very funny.

Compared to those unchanging indoor variety shows, *The Longing for Life* had become completely popular.

The day before leaving for Taoyuan Village, Wang Jinghua called Chen Mo.

"Momo, the production team for *Ghost Blows Out the Light* is ready, and we can join the production to start filming at any time..."

Wang Jinghua said to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo gave a "hmm" to indicate he understood.

After recording the latest episode of *The Longing for Life* this time, he could join the production to start filming.

Taoyuan Village.

The first to arrive at the Mushroom House this time was Brother; when Chen Mo arrived at the Mushroom House, everyone else had already arrived.

"I don't know what kind of guests will come this time; it would be great if a few more who can work could come."

Yang Mi rested her chin on her hand, looking at the door.

The vegetables Tie Zhu’s mom gave them last time were almost eaten, leaving only a little cured meat and pork ribs; if they wanted to get ingredients, they would really have to work this time.
