Chapter 189: There’s Only Hatred Between Them; No Love
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The only person Pei Zhen could think of who would use the term ‘Darling’ so openly was Fu Sichen; there was no one else.
The point was, no one else would have the guts…
The very thought of Fu Sichen caused Pei Zhen’s face to burn. Staring at the screen and watching the ceaseless firing of comments, Pei Zhen fell into silence.
“Dar… darling? Someone is obviously taking liberties with Daddy Pei?!”
“My foot, in broad daylight—having money is a big deal now!”
“Don’t get worked up just yet; this XHPZ person mentioned Animal Shelter. Does he know Pei Pei personally?”
“Am I the only person who finds this ID familiar? It seems I’ve seen it somewhere before.”
“Best Actor Fu! It’s Best Actor Fu’s Weibo account!”
All at once, the live broadcast room was bubbling like boiling water. The fans were squealing like groundhogs. Even Xiao Nian was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to ask Pei Zhen to ignore the commotion, his mobile phone went off.
The incoming call number was horrendously familiar, and Xiao Nian felt as though a bomb had exploded inside him. He muttered ‘Best Actor Fu’ in a low voice, and with shaking hands, he held his phone not knowing if he should disconnect the line. Fu Sichen’s icy image appeared in his mind’s eye.
I guarantee you won’t get to see the sunrise tomorrow if you dare disconnect the line!
The great manager Xiao wasn’t a short man, but he was certainly short of bravery. He took the call with a trembling hand. “Hello, my dear Best Actor Fu, how may I be of service to you?”
Fu Sichen’s cold laughter came through from the other end of the line. “Cut the crap and get Daddy, pass the phone to Pei Zhen.”
Xiao Nian turned white in his face. “But, But… Pei Pei, he…”
“I’m going to count to 3. One…”
“Pei Pei!” Xiao Nian rushed over to Pei Zhen, ignoring the fact that Pei Zhen was still in front of the camera. He was almost on his knees, begging Pei Zhen. “Important call, please take it, for I value my life.”
Pei Zhen rolled his eyes but reached for the phone to take the call. “Hello?”
“Darling, are you down with a cold?” Although it wasn’t a video call, it wasn’t hard to imagine that Fu Sichen was frowning. “You’re sick, and they make you do a live broadcast?”
It sounded like Fu Sichen was holding Xiao Nian responsible.
Pei Zhen found it rather heartwarming and felt himself tearing somewhat.
For some reason, Fu Sichen always had Pei Zhen in focus and noticed the tiniest things about him—the good, the bad, the norm, and the out-of-norm.
That wasn’t to find fault with Xiao Nian.
Xiao Nian was an excellent manager and a good friend, but he would only see what Pei Zhen was like on the surface and not his weaknesses.
There was one time Pei Zhen had worked under the hot sun with a raging 39-degree fever, and it was only when he almost fainted that Xiao Nian noticed something was wrong.
If it were Fu Sichen…
Just like then, even on screen, he could tell that Pei Zhen was unwell.
“Small matter.” Pei Zhen took a deep breath, trying to control his own tears. “BestActorFuXHPZ is you?”
It sounded like Fu Sichen wasn’t going to stop persuading Pei Zhen to stop the live broadcast. However, he did admit, “Yes, that’s me.”
“So what does XHPZ mean?”
On the day that Pei Zhen completed the live broadcast, the ID ‘BestActorFuXHPZ’ topped the hot search headline.
Those who didn’t watch the live broadcast were dumbfounded. There was a sense of familiarity just looking at the letters’ XHPZ’, but the great realization came when they clicked on the link.
Fu Sichen’s Weibo account included the four letters too!
But what had that got to do with Pei Zhen’s live broadcast?
“XH, can mean like, sabotage, make a joke out of… am I being too pessimistic? I somehow don’t think it means ‘like’.”
“For sure it doesn’t mean that. There’s only hatred between them; no love.”
