She Didn't Even Mind You Being a Shit-Stirrer

Cold sweat broke out on him. He pulled his arm out of Bai Zhitao's renewed grip and shifted his chair farther away from her. He took a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe his forehead, then seemed to remember that some actress had given him that, too. He hastily flung it away as though it were something filthy.

Bai Zhitao: "..."

She apparently hadn't expected him to be so afraid of dying. He certainly hadn't acted like this when he bragged to her. He was always telling her that he called all the shots at home.

In his own words: "That tigress is nothing. One look from me, and she turns into an obedient little kitten."

Chen Sinian ate while observing the changes in everyone's expressions. Before long, his eyes met the director's again.

He smiled at the director.

The director: "..."

[Oh.]

That single sound from Su Tangtang instantly drew everyone's attention back to her.

[The director's daughter is getting married? The groom is handsome, charming, and dashing, with a graduate degree from Stanford University. A genuine highly educated talent from a prestigious university. The director is very pleased with this son-in-law.]

Hearing her mention his future son-in-law, the director raised a hand to stroke his chin, his entire face brimming with pride.

Chen Sinian glanced at him and sighed softly. He still didn't understand. So far, everyone Su Tangtang had mentioned had some juicy scandal attached to them. This definitely wasn't as simple as a wedding.

Just as he'd expected, Su Tangtang's inner voice rang out again.

[But does he know his future son-in-law doesn't even have a dick?]

The director: "?!"

The proud expression on his face froze. What did you say?!

Everyone else choked at her mention of a dick, and several of them coughed.

Chen Sinian, however, was already used to it. On the dating reality show, she'd even narrated the process of Liao Xuliang and Xue Ruyin doing that on a livestream.

As for Du Lanxi, who was also sitting beside Su Tangtang, she was utterly numb.

Just listen to her! Are those things someone who looks like a fairy should be saying?

She'd had no idea Su Tangtang was actually like this on the inside!

[Influenced by her aunt, the director's daughter realized very early on that she liked women. She secretly dated several girls while she was in school, hiding it from her family, but she never planned to come out. Then she met her current girlfriend abroad two years ago. The woman had striking features and a roguish handsomeness that instantly captured her heart.]

[The more time they spent together, the deeper she fell, until she even started thinking about marriage. That's why she had her girlfriend pretend to be a man to deceive her family. They're planning to get a fake marriage certificate to fool her parents, then move to Country M.]

The director: "!!!"

Impossible. Absolutely impossible!

His precious daughter would never do anything like that!

He'd already started believing Su Tangtang, but the moment he heard this part, he dismissed it outright.

Nothing but nonsense!

How could Chen Sinian believe her? It was so obviously fake. Couldn't he hear that?

Chen Sinian naturally noticed the look the director shot him and understood what he meant by it, but he still gave no response and continued eating.

Su Tangtang was engrossed in the gossip and didn't notice his hostile gaze.

[The director's wife is in poor health. She absolutely mustn't find out about this, or things could get ugly. It might even send her to an early grave. Luckily, their son... huh? Their son is dating someone, too?]

The director: "!"

[She's his sister's best friend. Pretty, gentle, well-educated, and well-mannered.]

The director instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he caught himself: "..."

No, his son was only nineteen and focused on his studies. There was no way he was dating anyone!

[Holy shit!]

The director's heart, which had just settled, immediately leaped again. You're really messing with me here, aren't you?

Everyone else, including Du Lanxi, pricked up their ears.

There was no denying it: nobody could resist gossip, especially other people's private scandals. It was so delicious that they simply couldn't stop!

Go on, go on! What else?

[Holy shit! This producer actually swings both ways!]

The producer: "???"

The director's eyes instantly lit up. So this was what it felt like to hear gossip about someone else.

Everyone else: Whatever. As long as there's gossip, it doesn't matter whose it is! Eating popcorn.jpg.

[Life really is different when you're single after divorcing your wife. He's really letting loose!]

The producer: "..."

Meeting everyone's furtive glances, he rubbed his forehead, but he wasn't particularly embarrassed. At least he hadn't fooled around while he was married!

Unlike Lin Quanrui, President Lin, who'd built his career on his wife's support and was now sleeping around before even getting divorced. When the producer had divorced, he'd walked away with nothing!

If Su Tangtang had known what he was thinking: ...We're competing to see who's less awful now?

(ー_ー)!!

But Su Tangtang couldn't read minds. She was still avidly devouring the gossip in the book.

[Whoa! He actually slept with both halves of a couple, one after the other!]

Everyone: Whoa, whoa! This juicy?!

Go on, go on! We love hearing this!

[Liu Xin debuted through an idol competition, and his debut was the peak of his career. Because he'd ranked near the bottom, he never got any opportunities, and after the group disbanded, he completely faded into obscurity. When he happened to hear this production was holding auditions for several roles, he immediately approached the producer, desperate to switch to acting.]

[Meanwhile, his girlfriend couldn't bear seeing him so dejected and miserable all day. Through an introduction, she approached the producer, too.]

[Now both of them think they secured that role by sleeping with him, and neither dares tell the other. Old Xu, Old Xu, that's downright unethical.]

The unethical producer, Old Xu: "..."

Just tell me this: did I give him the role or not?

Besides, he'd only found out they were a couple after sleeping with them. It really wasn't his fault!

[Let me see. Does Liu Xin have any chance of becoming famous?]

[Good grief. Whether he becomes famous doesn't even matter anymore. His girlfriend went that far for him, and when he finds out later, he actually looks down on her?! He repeatedly tells her she has no self-respect? And he uses it as an excuse to break up with her? What a fucking idiot. Drop dead!]

(｀▽´)o━

[She didn't even mind you being a shit-stirrer, so what right do you have to criticize her?! Open your eyes, girl. Scumbags like this deserve to sink into obscurity all the way to the earth's core!]

Su Tangtang had been in quite a good mood, but encountering such a rotten person completely killed her desire to keep digging into gossip.

She picked up an enormous crab leg and put it in her bowl. [Ah! Hairy crab is still the best!]

As she gnawed on it, she stared at the untouched crab body, which was bigger than her face. [What am I supposed to do when there's only one?]

[How can I get it into my bowl discreetly, without anyone noticing?]

[Especially Sister Du. She wouldn't embarrass me in front of all these people, would she? Surely not? Surely not?]

Du Lanxi: "..."
