Chen Yi's Affair

If she hadn't known Chen Yi meant no harm, she would have thought Chen Yi and Ning Shuixin were in cahoots.

Chu Xiyue sensed Chen Yi's goodwill. She thought, It would be such a pity if such a beautiful, kind girl were framed by a scumbag!

Chu Xiyue took Chen Yi's hand. "Thank you, Sister Chen Yi. Oh, right, Sister Chen Yi, I've recently been learning palm reading. Let me read your palm."

Chu Xiyue changed the subject far too stiffly and suddenly. Chen Yi did not react in time. Looking at Chu Xiyue's beautiful face as it suddenly drew close, she blushed and nodded instinctively.

Chu Xiyue held Chen Yi's hand and gave it a cursory look. In truth, she did not know how to read palms at all; she merely wanted an excuse to tell Chen Yi a few things.

Chen Yi did not believe in such things, but seeing Chu Xiyue put on such a serious act, nodding as she looked, she found it amusing and asked, "Xiyue, have you figured anything out?"

She decided that, as long as Chu Xiyue did not say anything too outrageous, she would play along. She could not crush the younger girl's confidence.

Chu Xiyue shifted her gaze from Chen Yi's hand to her face. When their eyes met, Chen Yi had the sudden feeling that every secret she had was being seen through by Chu Xiyue.

However, Chen Yi was an open and honest person with no shameful secrets to hide. So when she met Chu Xiyue's gaze, she merely smiled gently at her.

Chu Xiyue said, "Sister Chen Yi, you lost both your parents as a child. Before you turned ten, you lived a drifting life at the mercy of others. Only after ten did your life settle down."

"Xiyue, you're incredibly accurate!" Chen Yi earnestly played along. In reality, as a public figure, this information could all be found online.

"You met your husband when you were both struggling. You supported each other through a difficult time and only became a couple after weathering countless hardships."

Chen Yi glanced at Jiang Beinian, and the smile on her face gradually faded. Everyone else thought she and Jiang Beinian had met while filming that movie, but only they themselves knew they had been together before filming began. Their agency did not allow its artists to date, so they had not let anyone find out.

How did Chu Xiyue know that?

However, the viewers assumed Chu Xiyue meant the time before Chen Yi and Jiang Beinian's movie was released, when they really had both been obscure nobodies.

The barrage teased:

[Chu Xiyue isn't very good at this. She's only saying things everyone already knows.]

[Exactly! I want to hear things nobody knows. Hurry up and say it!]

Chu Xiyue did not disappoint the livestream viewers. She cleared her throat and said, "After marrying your husband, you had more days of arguments than sweet moments. You and your mother-in-law did not get along, and whenever conflicts arose, your husband always took your mother-in-law's side."

[????]

[Is Chu Xiyue saying Chen Yi doesn't get along with her mother-in-law?]

Jiang Beinian, standing on Chen Yi's other side, changed expression slightly and instinctively denied it. "Chu Xiyue, don't talk nonsense. Yiyi and I have a great relationship! My mom treats Yiyi very well too. They're as close as mother and daughter."

[Jiang Beinian's reaction feels like someone hit a sore spot. Isn't he overreacting a little?]

[Chen Yi didn't deny it. Could what Chu Xiyue said be true?]

"You don't believe me?" Chu Xiyue clicked her tongue and looked Jiang Beinian up and down. "I just calculated

that within the next month, you'll suffer a financial loss."

Jiang Beinian's face darkened further. He thought Chu Xiyue was cursing him.

Chen Yi, on the other hand, gave Jiang Beinian a thoughtful look.

Chu Xiyue turned off her microphone, leaned close to Chen Yi's ear, and whispered, "You and your husband are preparing to divorce. Before the divorce, he wants to kick you while you're down by framing you for cheating during the marriage to purify the CP fans."

Chen Yi's expression changed abruptly. She shot to her feet and stared at Jiang Beinian in disbelief.

She knew Jiang Beinian too well. So after Chu Xiyue said that, she believed her without hesitation.

Her voice entered the livestream through someone else's microphone. "Jiang Beinian, do you have any conscience at all!"

The livestream audience was utterly confused.

[What happened? Weren't they fine just now? What did I miss?]

[Damn it, what exactly did Chu Xiyue say to Chen Yi?!]

[This scene feels familiar. Could Chen Yi and Jiang Beinian be the third couple on this show to start fighting?!]

#Chen Yi Cheated#

The livestream viewers loved drama and immediately began clamoring, [Fight! Fight!]

Meanwhile, the CP fans were completely bewildered. CP fans had always been more rational than solo fans, and they asked in the barrage:

[Why are they suddenly arguing for no reason?]

[I don't know what Chu Xiyue said, but Jiang Beinian and Chen Yi's expressions are a little strange.]

[No way, right? Is the CP I've shipped for five years going to break up today?]

In the living room, when Chen Yi said those words, every gaze fell on her and Jiang Beinian.

It was not just the livestream viewers who felt this scene seemed oddly familiar; even the staff felt the same way.

Cameramen A and B exchanged a glance, then silently aimed their cameras at the couple, determined to secure the best angle and capture the scene if they started fighting.

Jiang Beinian met Chen Yi's furious gaze, and it reminded him of the way she had confronted him that day while holding his phone's chat logs.

Jiang Beinian's heart lurched. Why had Chen Yi asked that? Had she discovered something?

Impossible. He had planned this flawlessly. Other than him and his manager, the fake information would not be exposed until tomorrow. There should not have been a third person who knew about it yet.

Could Chen Yi be planning to expose the things he had done before?

In an instant, Jiang Beinian dismissed that possibility. He understood Chen Yi. She looked easygoing, but her pride was stronger than anyone's. She would never let others know that he had cheated during their marriage.
