Chapter 162 Being Secretly Paired Up as a Couple for Hype
"Haven't you realized yet? Shen Chaohuai and Su Qi are not actually boyfriend and girlfriend."
These words kept echoing in her ears.
Shu Yu slowly lowered her hand as she poured water, not understanding why Gu Yan had reminded her like that.
Looking around, the cramped hotel room suddenly made her feel uncomfortable.
"Why should minor celebrities only receive this kind of unfair treatment?!"
……
Three hours before the variety show recording, the guests were in the preparation room getting their makeup and props done, with the camera passing through and leaving a narrow passageway in the middle.
"Sir, you cannot go in. This is the preparation room for the female guests."
The young master, exuding an air of nobility, was dressed rather flamboyantly today, wearing a printed shirt that revealed his collarbone under his suit jacket.
He was blocked at the doorway, his deep, calm eyes fixed on the person in front of him: "What? Petty? You don't allow publicly funded dating?"
The person in charge of the preparation room stepped forward, his head almost touching the ceiling, before he could fully see the man's fair and beautiful jawline.
Her face turned red instantly.
Shen Chaohuai is so beautiful, no wonder she had so many rumors before she got together with Su Qi.
However, now everyone understands what he says and accepts his relationship with Su Qi.
"Young Master Shen is here to see Miss Su, right? I'll go and inform her."
Su Qi had just pinned a pretty pearl hair clip to her short hair, revealing her broad and elegant earlobes, when she compared them and felt they didn't look good, so she took the hair clip off.
She even changed out of her dress and put on tight black leather pants.
Hearing that Shen Chaohuai had arrived, she turned her head over.
Several female celebrities in the dressing room outside heard the commotion and couldn't help but tease them.
He Yizhen clicked her tongue lightly: "Oh my, now our number one star has someone backing her up. She doesn't even use the dressing room with us anymore, and someone even comes to visit her."
There was a hint of jealousy in his tone.
Xu Xiaowan retorted directly: "You've been in this business for so many years and haven't made it. Why don't you take advantage of your youth and beauty and marry someone like Shen Chaohuai?"
"Anyway, if even a minor celebrity can't make it, she might as well find a man to marry."
He Yizhen deliberately smashed the mirror, and Xu Xiaowan changed her clothes, picked up her black silk bag, and went out.
After hearing this, Shu Yu simply continued applying her makeup on the side, as she had to do it herself since she didn't have a personal makeup artist.
Seeing this, He Yizhen offered a friendly suggestion: "Hey, baby, how about I help you with your makeup?"
Shu Yu was about to refuse, but He Yizhen came over with a makeup brush in hand.
Before Shu Yu could even look at Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai, He Yizhen's prominent figure blocked her view.
Su Qi walked out: "Is there something you need?"
Shen Chaohuai deliberately used the hand with the ring on it, with its long, slender fingers and distinct knuckles, to gently adjust the buttons on his suit jacket.
As if deliberately enticing her, he brought his face close, gesturing for Su Qi to kiss him in public.
Unexpectedly, Su Qi reached out and grabbed his waist before leaving.
"Ouch, that hurts..."
"Don't make trouble."
Everyone could see that they were indeed a couple flirting.
"Holy crap, it really is..."
"Who would dare to spread rumors about these two having affairs with other people in the future?"
"Exactly, be careful you don't get sued."
Knowing that Su Qi was doing it for his own good, Shen Chaohuai simply supported his back while trying to appease Su Qi, without being angry that she had hurt him: "I misunderstood you before. I know you were in a bad mood at the time, and I was just too emotional. I'm sorry."
The thought that Su Qi was still comforting him made him happy from the bottom of his heart.
So he deliberately lowered his head to tease her, pushing her towards the corner of the wall.
Su Qi was stunned: "What...what are you doing?"
Thinking he might come closer and do something surprising, Su Qi subconsciously closed his eyes.
The next second, Shen Chaohuai moved away from her, waving goodbye: "See you at the recording site in one hour."
She opened her eyes: "You...you can stop doing this."
"You thought I liked you?"
"I just thought it would be funny to tease you."
She had never seen Shen Chaohuai say such things so casually. Her lips parted slightly as she stared in surprise at the man with broad shoulders and a narrow waist outlined by light and shadow in the distance.
"Are you kidding me? What do you mean?"
She suddenly felt an unbearable itch all over her body from Shen Chaohuai's actions, as if something was out of her control and causing discomfort.
When Shen Chaohuai arrived backstage at the recording studio, he couldn't help but laugh when he thought about Su Qi's expression just now.
"Being arrogant makes you easy to bully." He coughed lightly.
"..."
As he was laughing, he suddenly heard an unfamiliar female voice.
"Mr. Shen, I have something to tell you."
Upon seeing that it was Shu Yu, Shen Chaohuai's smile vanished instantly, replaced by an unapproachable expression.
"It's fine to do it here, but Mr. Shen, aren't you afraid of rumors?"
With people coming and going in the stairwell, there are indeed some risks.
Shu Yu had finally managed to get rid of He Yizhen before she could find Shen Chaohuai. She couldn't let such a great opportunity slip by.
As Shu Yu followed Shen Chaohuai to the safety exit, she suddenly reached out and tried to hug him.
The result was obvious: Shu Yu, who was 167cm tall, couldn't reach Shen Chaohuai, who was 209cm tall. Her hand froze awkwardly in mid-air before she quickly wrapped her arms around Shen Chaohuai's waist.
Shen Chaohuai was startled and pushed her away forcefully: "What are you doing?!"
"I know you and Miss Su are faking it. I've admired you for a long time. Could you...?"
"Can't!"
He suddenly pushed Shu Yu to the ground.
Before Shu Yu could even explain himself clearly, he had already begun to avoid suspicion.
"Please have some self-respect. I'm not the kind of male celebrity like Gu Xing who can half-heartedly sleep with anyone. Get lost!"
Shu Yu just wanted to create a CP (couple pairing) with him; whether he agreed or not was irrelevant.
Because the surveillance camera above was on.
Shen Chaohuai walked out, but Shu Yu looked smugly at the monitor.
Before leaving, out of kindness, he still advised, "If you keep trying to make a name for yourself in the entertainment industry like this, you'll never achieve anything in your entire life."
"If you want to take these shortcuts, you might as well go to Gu Xing."
Shu Yu showed no expression after hearing this, only slightly moving her lips.
Everyone gets a share. Today it's Shen Chaohuai, tomorrow it's Gu Xing, and of course, there'll be Li Yancheng in the future... male celebrities from all sorts of circles.
These top celebrities all rose to fame by creating hype and pairing up with other celebrities in the early stages.
Shu Yu edited the surveillance video in her hands into a mere three seconds.
All guests are in place. The host explains the rules: "Now, the detective team will go to the detention room to rest. In three hours, the criminal team will need to complete the entire case and present it to the audience."
Everyone carried their respective number tags, and Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai sat in the solitary confinement room as instructed.
However, before it could even be quiet for three seconds, the live stream was flooded with viewers, crashing the network and causing the live stream from the detention room to be interrupted.
"What happened?" The director went to find Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai himself.
"What on earth are you guys doing? Why is the live stream full of people swearing?"
[Shen Chaohuai, get out! You started messing with other female guests as soon as you joined the dating reality show? How can you face Su Qi?]
[No, Su Qi hasn't admitted to a relationship with Shen Chaohuai either, so why are you all in such a hurry?]
At the same time, Su Qi opened her blog and saw a short three-second video.
#Shen Chaohuai and new artist Shu Yu were seen hugging and cuddling in the stairwell, looking very sweet.
Once the entry went viral, Shu Yu's blog followers skyrocketed.
Some people applauded, thinking that Shu Yu was a hero for daring to expose the ugly side of the entertainment industry, specifically referring to Su Qi's attempt to boost her popularity by associating with Shen Chaohuai.
Su Qi smiled and calmly put down her phone, comparing it to her declining number of followers.
On the other side, Shen Chaohuai shook his head pitifully, trying to explain, afraid that Su Qi might have misunderstood something.
