Chapter 20 part 1

This chapter is for Blueskyn. Thank you so much for supporting me in Kofi.

Apart from the minor incident in the morning, the opening ceremony went very smoothly. The PR (Public Relations) Department of Wutong was highly efficient. The computers were only turned on in the morning, but in the afternoon, press releases about “Chasing the Light” were already flying everywhere.

Xia Shutong glanced briefly and indeed found articles related to Yun Feiwu and Bian Xin CP.

The content of the press release was quite official, vaguely mentioning that the two of them, after many years, were finally going to collaborate again, and nothing much could be deduced from it.

However, upon checking Weibo, the situation was completely different.

Several related hashtags were trending on Weibo:

– #YunFeiwuChasingLight#

– #YunFeiwuBianXin#

It happened right after the incense offering. Journalists interviewed the main cast and crew, who were standing together. Yun Feiwu unintentionally lowered her head, and that moment was captured as “gazing tenderly at Bian Xin.”

One must admit, the netizens’ imagination was indeed quite powerful.

Xia Shutong continued scrolling down and soon came across a few more images.

Yun Feiwu held a stack of red envelopes, preparing to distribute them to the crew members. Bian Xin walked up to her and took over most of the red envelopes from her hands. The expression on her face was delicate and shy.

The comments below this set of pictures were even more intriguing.

【Ah, I can’t believe this is real! Is Bian Bian blushing? Isn’t she?】

【I can totally imagine the scene back then. Bian Bian saw Yun Yun struggling with the red envelopes, so she went to help her. She’s clearly caring for her wife! Bian is the dominant one!】

While there were a few fans jokingly saying “You take away my daughter’s red envelope without permission” or “Bian Xin, please leave our beauty alone,” and Bian Xin’s fans retaliating with, “Just because you’re filming a movie doesn’t make you better, our Bian Bian’s popularity isn’t any worse than a certain leading actress.”

In the broader public discourse, most of the comments were joyfully celebrating the CP.

Xia Shutong: “…”

She remembered the scene of distributing red envelopes, but if she recalled correctly, Bian Xin’s tone back then was quite peculiar.

“Yun Yun, you’ve worked so hard with all these red envelopes. How about I help you distribute some?” Bian Xin smiled gently, lowering her head slightly, her tone soft and warm.

At that time, Xia Shutong was nearby and heard Bian Xin’s words clearly.

How should she put it… that kind of soft tone and bashful smile felt somewhat contrived. It was obvious that she was trying to snatch the red envelopes from Yun Feiwu’s hands. Yun Feiwu simply nodded in response, barely saying a word to her, and handed over the red envelopes.

And when Bian Xin was distributing the red envelopes later, she was smiling with a rosy glow on her face. It was evident to anyone that she enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by people.

In comparison, Yun Feiwu appeared rather indifferent. It’s as if she never proactively seeks anything. Throughout the entire morning, she stands quietly in the corner, offering help when needed. Despite maintaining a cold demeanor and speaking sparingly, she inexplicably gives Xia Shutong a sense that she is a well-behaved child.

So, on that day in the restroom, why did she acted that way?

Xia Shutong prepared herself mentally and planned to personally ask Yun Feiwu about it after the cast dinner tonight.

…

During the evening dinner, Xia Shutong sits at a table with the director, on-set screenwriter, and several lead actors.

This is the first social event Xia Shutong has attended since her amnesia, and Qian Lingling is not by her side.

To be honest, she feels a bit nervous.

She’s unsure of what to say.

So, as soon as she sits down, she subtly lifts her chin and casts a sidelong glance to everyone in the room. The air pressure around her instantly lowers.

This way perhaps no one will be driven to initiate a conversation with her?

Bian Xin arrived at the hotel with Yun Feiwu. Her sharp eyes immediately spot their table.

The seating arrangement is evidently deliberate. Xia Shutong occupies the main seat, with Director Dai Su on her left, and the on-set screenwriter. They are engaged in a lively conversation.

Since Director Dai Su’s other side is occupied, she can only sit on Xia Shutong’s right.

The seat is vacant clearly intended for Yun Feiwu, yet Bian Xin’s heart simmers with frustration when she thinks about how she was ignored by President Xia earlier in the day.

President Xia must have been too preoccupied at the time, that’s why she didn’t notice her. But if she were to sit right next to her now, could President Xia still feign ignorance?
