Chapter 149: Love Variety Show: Saving the Scandal-Ridden Movie Emperor 18

Jin Chen's heart suddenly ached.

He bent down and placed a kiss on Song Pojian's cheek.

He whispered comfortingly.

"It won't happen; I will never leave you."

"No matter what happens."

"Pojian-ge, don't worry."

Jin Chen whispered word by word into his ear.

It was like adding a protective shield to Song Pojian's wavering sense of security.

Song Pojian nodded, tightened his hold on his waist, and his unease finally eased a little.

The two fell asleep in each other's arms.

——

The next day.

Jin Chen and Song Pojian came out of the same room.

They immediately drew Zhou Yan Nan's envious gaze.

Strangely, after last night, Xu Xin's warm attitude toward Jin Chen suddenly turned cold.

Jin Chen was also happy to take it easy.

The eight people in the villa gathered together to eat breakfast.

Jin Chen and Xu Ling were still in charge of cooking.

After last night, Le Gui Lu and Chen Mo's relationship seemed to have grown a step closer, Chen Mo's mood had returned to normal, and besides, Yang Yixian had already been forcibly removed from the show.

"Here it comes."

Jin Chen alone held a bowl of fried rice and placed it in front of Song Pojian, using the leftover seafood ingredients from yesterday; the grains were golden, looking appetizing.

Then he served the others' meals.

Le Gui Lu teased, "This special treatment is really blatant."

At eight o'clock sharp, under the Program Team's nervous observation, the livestream began on time.

Because of the Program Team's closed-livestream design, the few guests still in the villa don't know about the online bloodbath and can't see the insulting barrage.

〖Hehehe, come see the bullying coffee movie emperor——〗

〖The Weibo solid proof is out; I wonder if any fans will whitewash today! 〗

〖Bullying and still acting, I say Song Pojian, can't you just get out of the entertainment circle! 〗

〖Good thing Xiao Feng hasn't been around these two days; I'm afraid to see him and the bullying coffee under the same roof! 〗

〖Why won't the Program Team let Song Pojian get out! 〗

〖Huh? Where did Yang Yixian go? 〗

……

Shenmu, monitoring backstage, saw this almost one-sided barrage of opinions and sighed heavily.

Occasionally a few true fans came out to explain, but they were also scolded mercilessly.

In such a headwind situation, can Jin Chen really clear Song Pojian's name from public opinion?

【Host, the online public opinion is terrible; what do I need to do?】

0731 asked.

【Check Su Feng's dealings with the production crew; being able to have them expose the baseless accusations will definitely involve money and power transactions.】

【Okay!】

After Jin Chen finished speaking with 0731, he glanced up thoughtfully and cast a glance at Xu Xin.

This person seems a bit off today, as if waiting for something.

He kept a wary eye.

"Jin Chen, I want to go back to my room to rest."

Song Pojian knew that the barrage now was surely a bloodbath, and it might also affect the other guests.

"There's an activity today, Senior Song, are you feeling unwell?"

Le Gui Lu asked.

Then he took out the task card he had first found in the living room, cleared his throat, and read it aloud.

"The Love Space on the top floor of the island villa has been opened; each guest's past and future videos have been placed in the Love Space, and one can enter the small space to view the story of their love interest."

"This event will officially start at 2:30 p. m.; please proceed to the interview room to record."

After Le Gui Lu finished reading, he grinned and moved close to Chen Mo, saying, "Let's go record first."

"Wait, let me go first, okay?"

Today, Xu Xin, who had rarely kept silent, suddenly spoke up.

Her relationship with the other villa residents wasn't great, but basic courtesy still had to be maintained, and Le Gui Lu didn't say anything.

Xu Xin gave a light smile, thanked everyone, put her utensils away, and then wanted to leave.

Jin Chen happened to stand up, took his and Song Pojian's utensils to the kitchen, and accidentally bumped into Xu Xin's shoulder.

He quickly stepped back two steps, saying, "Sorry."

"It's fine."

Xu Xin had something on her mind, didn't mind this little incident, and hurried away.

〖Jin Chen should be with Xu Xin! Not colluding with the bullying coffee in disgrace! 〗

〖Jin Chen, take a look at our Xu Xin! 〗

Jin Chen's fans were immediately unhappy.

They all regarded the sister-in-law as Song Pojian—how could it be changed at will!

Even if online opinion is now one-sided, show fans are most fearless when it comes to mud-slinging.

"Stop daydreaming—Chenchen likes Brother Jian so much, he wouldn't shift his affection!"

"Has the Xin family gone mad? Your sister no one wants, yet you let fans pay for her? Can you even walk on your own? Your legs are broken, right?!"

There was still an interview in the morning, so Song Pojian couldn't just go back to his room; he had to follow Jin Chen step by step, always feeling that facing the camera had lost its familiarity, instead feeling some apprehension.

He hasn't never experienced online bullying; to get to where he is today, he has paid a great price, so he deeply knows how destructive online public opinion can be.

Jin Chen noticed his wife's unease, spent almost the whole morning accompanying him to relax, and even borrowed the swing that Le Gui Lu had set up on the front lawn.

At the same time, he also came up with a method that could temporarily salvage public opinion.

When it was Jin Chen's turn to record the interview, on the pretext of wanting to be with Song Pojian, he boldly took him away in front of everyone.

As soon as they reached the interview room, Jin Chen said, "I want to see Shenmu; go get him."

"Here I come, big sponsor."

Shenmu reluctantly entered the interview room, gesturing for the cameraman to leave first.

"What are you doing?"

"Recording Song Pojian's past story can include events from the time on set, as well as his conflict with Su Feng."

Seeing Song Pojian's confusion, Jin Chen explained, "I'm still investigating the evidence of Su Feng colluding with the crew; you should go out and explain first—whether or not you can counter public opinion, it can also lay groundwork for revealing the truth later."

"Believe me."

Jin Chen grabbed Song Pojian's shoulders with both hands, gently squeezing them reassuringly.

"This..."

Shenmu instead first said, embarrassed, "Isn't this just me and Wen Ci Ye opposing each other?"

"Are you afraid?"

Jin Chen raised his eyebrows, his eyes giving a slight warning.

Shenmu: "......"

Forget it; this killing god is still someone we'd better not provoke.

"Fine, fine, fine—then let's do it your way!"

——

Although the suggestion was Jin Chen's, the two still recorded separately.

He waited for Song Pojian outside the interview room first.

With the live camera on, Jin Chen sat on the lawn with a cold face.

【Villain Heartthrob Value detected 5, cumulative 65!】

After the July 31 broadcast, he reported his investigation progress to Jin Chen.

【Host, I followed the protagonist monitoring of Wen Ci Ye all the way and discovered something very strange.】

It gave Jin Chen the footage it had extracted.

In the footage.

Wen Ci Ye, dressed in an elegant suit, entered the study together with his father Wen, who was glaring angrily at him; during the conversation, Wen's father visibly became increasingly sluggish.

And finally, his temperament changed completely—he patted Wen Ci Ye's shoulder and kept calling him 'brother,' whereas before, Wen's father would never acknowledge this illegitimate son under any circumstances.

Jin Chen observed Wen's father's expression and suddenly frowned.
