Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Even if she became a mistress without knowing it, Song Yao didn’t deny she deserved a good beating. She didn’t report it to the police or speak out about it since she still had the ident.i.ty of a celebrity. She can’t embarra.s.s that person and all she could think about was silently putting the whole thing behind them; after she recovered for a while then she could return back to work.
Song Yao’s phone had been ringing the whole night – it was the same caller ID and number.
Lin Nuan guessed it was that man who took advantage of Song Yao using those “unspoken rules”. She muted the phone and helped Bai XIaonian carry Song Yao up on the bed to lay her down. She couldn’t fall asleep the whole night.
…
The next morning, LIn Nuan and Bai Xiaonian went out at three-ten sharp and reached the television station at four o’clock.
Despite upper management notifying Lin Nuan to prepare for a new show and Bai Xiaonian leaving the broadcast channel, Miss Summer didn’t want to give the audience the impression of the Morning News switching hosts too frequently. Hence, she let Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan go on air together so they could familiarize themselves with the former. Then she would let Bai Xiaonian host alone starting next Monday.
The two of them left after leaving Song Yao a note.
They crossed arms on the way there, n.o.body mentioning anything about Song Yao.
Bai Xiaonian was a bit nervous going on air the first time on Morning News, yet she still gave an excellent performance.
The regular audience of Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan’s broadcast show intentionally went to check out the Morning News and marveled over their beautiful appearances.
The first show went well, especially because the audience feedback for Bai Xiaonian was as good as that of Lin Nuan’s first time on the show, hence Miss Summer was quite satisfied.
In the makeup lounge, Bai Xiaonian and Lin Nuan removed their makeup as they discussed purchasing some medicine for Song Yao in the pharmaceutical shop later on the way back.
“Song Yao’s ident.i.ty is quite special. It’s not proper for her to go to the hospital with wounds like that on her face,” Lin Nuan said as she washed her face and dabbed it with a wipe.
“I’m staying at your place these two days as well, I’ll just crash on the floor like last night. Later, I’ll go back to my place first to get some daily supplies…”
Bai Xiaonian put on her skincare and sunscreen in front of the mirror, along with a thin coat of lip gloss. She recalled what Song Yao said last night about having wrinkles around her eyes. She examined her face carefully in the mirror and discovered a few dry wrinkles right under her eyes. “Time really is cruel…”
Miss Summer’s a.s.sistant, Yang Yuze, suddenly opened the door to the makeup lounge, holding hands with Tuan Tuan who was still in his pajamas and flip-flops with a backpack on him.
“Mama!”
Tuan Tuan’s round, black eyes were wet. As soon as he spotted Lin Nuan he broke free from Yang Yuze’s hand and wanted to come hug Lin Nuan’s leg…
Lin Nuan unconsciously dodged away from him, which made Tuan Tuan immediately stand still before her, not daring to hug her.
Tuan Tuan felt a bit upset as he looked up at Lin Nuan.
Yang Yuze was shocked by how Tuan Tuan called her mother. He really couldn’t tell that Lin Nuan had a child already at that age when she was still so young.
“The guard downstairs was careless and let this kid run into the broadcast building all by himself. The host of the Happily Ever After Show, Zhouxi, found him adorable and asked him why he came in. He replied he was trying to find you so I brought him all the way here…”
Lin Nuan didn’t explain and thanked Yang Yuze. She shut the door and reached out to hug Tuan Tuan and put him on the sofa, unable to bear with his wet eyes…
Tuan Tuan kept silent throughout like a good boy.
“How did this kid get here? Is he all alone?”
Lin Nuan kneeled down to ask Tuan Tuan, “How did you come here? Who sent you over? Auntie Lee?”
Tuan Tuan pondered about it for a while before leaping off the sofa and digging out a laptop from his backpack. He said, “I saw Mom in here… and then I showed the driver and he said Mom was quite awesome and that he knew where you were…”
