Xu Yi looked at herself, who was being carried around by the male actors in the rain of flowers, and then looked at Lu Shen. His gaze was also drawn to the television.
This was simply a large-scale social death scene.
Her arrogant, unkind, and cold-blooded capitalist husband appraising her Mary Sue Drama. If social death had a hierarchy, then this was the highest level of social death.
However, before Xu Yi could turn off the television, the promotional video had already ended. It only lasted less than a minute.
Then, she saw Lu Shen sizing her up from head to toe. His gaze was cold as if he was using an expression to say to her, ‘Oh, so this is your job’.
Xu Yi wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She wanted to smash the television!
She laughed awkwardly. She wanted to change the topic, but when she moved her lips, she realized that she could not say a word. She decided to give up on herself.
After all, it was not like Lu Shen did not know that she was a popular female celebrity. Acting in idol dramas was one of her jobs.
Ironically, after experiencing the social death scene just now, Xu Yi had an inexplicable feeling of enlightenment. It was about her marriage with Lu Shen.
This was not just her problem, it was clearly a matter between the two of them. Lu Shen came from the famous Hong Kong Lu Family and was an arrogant capitalist. Even going to a teen idol concert would be too demeaning. Would he publicly admit that he was married to an actor who had always been looked down upon in the entertainment industry?
Absolutely not. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face, the kind that would make one’s face swell up.
As for Lu Shen’s arrogance, how should she put it? He was so arrogant that he turned a blind eye to the Hong Kong superstar stepmother that his father had married. Now that he was asked to admit that he had also married one, it would be like a big slap on the face.
Moreover, Xu Yi felt that even if she were to put aside her profession, Lu Shen would definitely be very clear that she and his family background were not suitable for each other.
What was suitable for the Lu Family should be a marriage alliance with a wealthy family like his sister, a community of shared interests, and a strong marriage between businessmen.
What was suitable for him should also be the kind of young and ambitious person who was born with a bright future.
Otherwise, why had Lu Shen not mentioned his marriage to anyone else? It all made sense now.
With that, Xu Yi suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips. The pent-up anger that she had suppressed for the whole afternoon had completely dissipated.
What was she afraid of? Lu Shen was there to take care of it… He would mention the divorce now.
She dared to bet that even if the reporters managed to capture her and Lu Shen going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their certificates today, the news would be wiped clean the next day. Then, Lu Shen would send a lawyer’s letter saying that it was purely a slander rumor.
She did not have to do anything because Lu Shen would resolve it. He did not want this relationship to be exposed more than she did.
As for Weilan Star Court, the security here was so tight that not even a fly could sneak in. Her family would not run over here for no reason. So what if Lu Shen came over now? No one would know that the two of them slept in the same bed every night. No matter how intense their bed activities were, no one would notice.
Xu Yi was instantly in a great mood.
Lu Shen saw that Xu Yi’s expression was constantly changing, but he had no way of knowing what was going on in Xu Yi’s head. Perhaps it was the question she had asked just now?
Xu Yi came back to her senses and looked at Lu Shen again. She greeted him warmly like every good wife and mother who was waiting at home. “Are you off work now?”
Lu Shen said, “Yes.”
Xu Yi smiled sweetly. “It’s so early.”
Lu Shen muttered, “Actually, it’s not early anymore.”
Xu Yi did not know what to say.
She was already feeling awkward. Could he just cooperate a little? Speaking of which, the most frequent interaction between the two of them was not standing…
Lu Shen looked at Xu Yi and decided to end the stale conversation. He repeated what he said just now. “Xu Yi, I will always stay in the capital from now on.”
Xu Yi nodded sensibly. “Okay.”
…
That night, Xu Yi was practicing yoga in her gym. She was dressed in a white bodybuilding suit and her hair was tied into a bun. Her fair cheeks were flushed during the exercise, and she performed difficult movements with just a raise of her hand.
Gu Xiao’s voice kept coming from the phone, but it did not affect Xu Yi’s breathing at all. She performed every yoga movement flawlessly.
“Xu Yi, are you alright? Is this thing over?” Over the video call, Gu Xiao’s side was dimly lit. As far as the eye could see, there were a few musical instruments and a mess of music scores scattered around. It seemed to be an underground practice room.

Gu Xiao leaned in front of the camera and questioned the woman who was doing yoga. She looked as if she was ready to run out of the phone at any moment.
Xu Yi was stretching as she slowly drew in a deep breath. “I have gone through complicated situations before, so this is nothing new. It’s just a change of location now. If he’s not afraid, what am I afraid of?”
“Besides, he doesn’t want to be exposed more than I do. If the enemy doesn’t move, I won’t move.” Xu Yi sounded like she was talking to Gu Xiao, but it sounded like she was brainwashing herself.
Gu Xiao seemed to lower her head and think for a few seconds. She fiddled with the guitar in her hand and finally said, “I actually f*cking think what you said makes sense.”
Xu Yi smiled smugly. She felt that what she said made sense too..
