In the living room.
Cui Ming and Yang Hong crossed their arms and looked at their respective artists sitting on the sofa.
"Didn't you say it was a stab wound? Let me see the wound."
Yang Hong suppressed her anger, almost to the point of yelling at Si Yan that he was an idiot.
I've told you to bring bodyguards when you go out, but you just won't listen even once!
Wound...
Si Yan touched her healed arm and silently looked at Jiang Nuo beside her.
Jiang Nuo: "..."
He then looked at Cui Ming.
"Why are you all staring at me? I'm asking about your injuries... Of course, there's nothing seriously wrong with your wounds!"
Cui Ming was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly remembered Jiang Nuo's amazing ability. He quickly changed the subject and turned to Yang Hong to offer words of comfort.
"Don't worry, Sister Yang, there won't be any problems. Jiang Nuo has already taken Si Yan to get disinfected."
To prevent Yang Hong from disbelieving him, he spoke with particular conviction.
Yang Hong looked at the three people with a puzzled expression.
"Are you really alright?"
"Real."
Cui Ming nodded.
Jiang Nuo rolled her eyes, nudged Si Yan's arm, and whispered as she leaned closer to ask.
"Isn't Sister Yang your aunt? Doesn't she know about your Spiritual Power?"
Si Yan also lowered his voice in a cooperative manner.
"I don't know, only my grandfather's relatives know."
Due to the association's special nature, it was necessary to keep it a secret.
Even if we can reveal it gradually in the future, we have to proceed step by step.
He only has one aunt; don't be scared to death.
I see.
Jiang Nuo seemed to understand, but not quite.
Although he couldn't distinguish between relatives on this side and those on the other.
He has no relatives.
What are you two whispering about?
Cui Ming had finally managed to keep it a secret for them and persuade Yang Hong, but when he turned around, he saw the two of them so close they were almost kissing!
"Something's not right... something's not right."
Cui Ming stroked his chin and hissed.
Judging from his experiences with these few bad romantic relationships...
How come Si Yan came back looking like she'd been pampered after just one trip to the mall?
" Jiang Nuo!"
Jiang Nuo sat up straight immediately after being yelled at. "Hey, I'm listening. I'm not daydreaming."
"You really just went to the mall to shop and didn't do anything else?"
Cui Ming tried to ask the questions tactfully.
Jiang Nuo for a moment, then nodded, "Done."
She even fell in love with Si Yan. How amazing!
The Spiritual Power absorbed from a kiss is much greater than that from holding hands, and you don't have to drink blood as often.
Cui Ming gasped.
Suddenly, they looked at Si Yan as if she were a cabbage.
Good heavens, no wonder Si Yan practically clung to Jiang Nuo when he came back.
Turns out, I wasn't feeling well! It must have been tough for me.
"Quickly, get a soft cushion for Si Yan to sit on!"
Cui Ming roared.
Si Yan: "..."
Yang Hong: "..."
The atmosphere was silent for a few seconds.
Jiang Nuo:?
"What's the meaning?"
But he still obediently did as he was told.
Si Yan glared resentfully at Cui Ming, took the cushion Jiang Nuo handed her, and then threw it away.
" Nuonuo, it seems your manager has misunderstood something."
To avoid further misunderstanding, he straightened up, took Jiang Nuo's hand, and raised it.
"We've officially started dating, that's all."
Cui Ming coughed awkwardly twice and turned to look at the ceiling.
After the shock I just experienced, it seems that just being in a relationship isn't so hard to accept.
Yang Hong sighed.
That's enough, she said, really enough.
"Now that you've established a romantic relationship, you should be mindful of public opinion and try not to show it in front of the camera."
She's the only one who's still conscious.
"There will only be more stalkers like today, Si Yan. You know that yourself. You've experienced being tracked, having your apartment building number identified, and receiving phone calls in the middle of the night."
"Therefore, we can no longer be so careless. Apart from trips we're on together with Jiang Nuo, we need to bring bodyguards when we go out from now on."
Si Yan hung his head dejectedly and hummed in agreement.
Then, looking very aggrieved, she nestled into Jiang Nuo's arms.
"And your agreement to create a CP (couple pairing) is up to you whether you want to void it, but I have a reminder."
Yang Hong glanced at Cui Ming, a look that seemed to be a warning.
"No secrets stay hidden forever. Many people in both companies know about the CP agreement. If it's not voided now, and you make it public later, this agreement will be enough to crush you."
Having worked as an agent for so many years, Cui Ming naturally understood Yang Hong's meaning.
Si Yan is doing well, after all, she already has a complete and mature team.
But Jiang Nuo was different. Her sudden rise to fame left even her manager a bit overwhelmed, and she had to do many things herself, which is why she hired several assistants.
But we haven't gone through the trial and error process yet, so who knows if something might go wrong later?
Seven Shadows Entertainment currently has quite a few young artists that Jiang Nuo envies, making it a difficult business for them.
Being betrayed by fellow artists from the same company is a problem that almost every artist who suddenly becomes popular will experience.
"You're right, we should be more careful."
Cui Ming was just like a worried old father.
Si Yan immediately replied, "Then destroy it immediately, right now."
He and Nuonuo were already officially a couple.
There's no need for agreements to bind us anymore.
Jiang Nuo couldn't understand what they were saying, but Jiang Nuo would cooperate.
"I agree." He raised his hand.
Then he lowered his hand, clutched his stomach, and said, " Brother Cui, I'm hungry."
It's time for lunch.
Cui Ming: "..."
Well, what else can we do?
"Why don't you stay for dinner today? Consider it a celebration of Si Yan moving into her new home."
Yang Hong's serious expression softened a bit, and she looked rather embarrassed, tossing her curly hair behind her shoulder.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Little Cui."
Little Cui chuckled.
It's not hard work, it's just a tough life.
He resigned himself to his fate and went into the kitchen.
Yang Hong sat down on the other side of the sofa, seemingly wanting to say something to Jiang Nuo, but hesitated because Si Yan was present.
She thought about it and decided to find another opportunity.
I opened my tablet to check online opinions and, incidentally, asked my PR team to suppress the trending topics.
For celebrities, whether it's positive or negative trending topics, staying on them for too long can easily trigger a rebellious mentality.
At this moment, Jiang Nuo seemed to be watching a movie with Si Yan, lost in thought.
In reality, they had already excitedly collected the points.
[Main Quest: Protect Si Yan, the tragic villain of this world. Current progress in changing the tragic ending: 5%]
[Host's task progress detected, reward points +200]
Wuhu.
He truly is Little Lucky Star.
Jiang Nuo pinched Si Yan's waist, laughing like a dashing young master embracing a famous courtesan.
"As expected of you, you're amazing!"
Si Yan was watching a movie, raised an eyebrow in confusion.
Although I don't know what Nuonuo is talking about.
But I'm so happy, I got praised again.
He smiled shyly and snuggled into Jiang Nuo's arms. " Nuonuo praised me, so how about giving me a reward?"
As she spoke, she slightly raised her head, her phoenix eyes filled with expectation.
Their features, which were clearly fierce and assertive, now appeared docile.
Jiang Nuo lowered her head and kissed the corner of his lips at the opportune moment.
Yang Hong, standing to the side. "..."
It's unbearable to look at.
