Chapter 4 I wish to call you the strongest!
“Ring, ring, ring!”
The sudden and urgent ringing of a cell phone woke Xu Jie from his deep sleep. He fumbled around his body and finally found the cell phone in his trouser pocket.
Although he was awake, his eyelids felt as heavy as if they were weighed by weights. He struggled for a long time before he was able to squeeze out a gap between his upper and lower eyelids.
However, when he saw the name on the caller ID, he stood up straight as if he had been resurrected from the dead.
"Director, what's the matter?"
The person who called was the program director, Wang Jingmin, who was also his immediate superior.
"Xu Jie, where are you?" Wang Jingmin spoke quickly, seeming very anxious.
"I'm..." Xu Jie looked around and found himself in an unfamiliar villa. The pink walls, floral curtains, and dolls in the corners were all filled with the scent of a girl.
Yeah, where the hell am I?
"No matter where you are, come to my office right now." Wang Jingmin said seriously and hung up the phone.
Xu Jie was stunned for a moment. From the director's tone it seemed as if something big had happened, so he quickly stood up and looked for his coat.
"Hello, is anyone there?"
The room was quiet and no one responded.
He looked around and finally found his clothes and shoes at the door. At the same time, the large pendulum clock hanging on the wall caught his attention. The pointer on it pointed to 12:56.
Is it noon?
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Normally, he should be at work or interviewing outside at this time. Why was he sleeping in a stranger's home today?
Suddenly, a series of images appeared in his mind like slides. He remembered writing copy all night at the company last night, he remembered having a toothache when he went out to eat this morning, he also remembered meeting the famous star Su Yun when he went to the park to drink to relieve the pain, and she begged him to marry her, and then... nothing happened.
The scene suddenly stopped here, making Xu Jie very confused. He couldn't tell whether what he just recalled was a dream or a real thing.
If it was a dream, everything was too real, and could even be connected with his memories when he was awake. But if it was true, what happened was too dreamy. He had just broken up with Tang Fei, who had become a star, and was proposed to by Su Yun, who was also a big star. Even TV dramas would not dare to play it this way.
He didn't have time to think about it. He put on his clothes and shoes, and looked back at the house before leaving. Could this be Su Yun's home?
…
…
It was almost two o'clock when Xu Jie returned to the unit. The moment he walked into the program crew, all pairs of eyes immediately looked at him, some were surprised, some were envious, but more were disbelief. It was like Tang Monk entering the monster's cave, and everyone wanted to eat him.
"Great job, Xiao Xu, you are a celebrity now." Director Zhang Huihui said with a smile.
"A master is someone who hides his true strengths without revealing them." Reporter Zheng Xiaoshan raised a thumbs up, then turned to look at the man at the opposite table and said, "Brother Liang, haven't you always said that you've never been defeated by anyone in the pursuit of women ? Are you defeated this time?"
"I'm convinced. Compared to Xiao Xu, I'm just a younger brother." Reporter and cameraman Zhang Mingliang looked at Xu Jie with admiration, "Xiao Xu, no, Master Xu, from now on you will be my guiding light. I, Zhang Mingliang, am willing to call you the best."
What?
A series of question marks popped up above Xu Jie's head. What kind of expert? What kind of master? What kind of strongest?
At this time, a middle-aged woman in light-colored professional attire walked out from the innermost office. Her powerful aura made the originally bustling office instantly silent.
Wang Jingmin glanced around the group and saw that no one dared to speak. Then she cast her eyes on Xu Jie's face, then nodded her head and pointed to the office inside.
Xu Jie understood and walked over obediently.
"I'm sorry, Director. I..."
Before he could finish his words, Wang Jingmin pulled him into the office by his sleeve. It was like a naughty kid who got into trouble outside and was taken home by his mother.
Xu Jie was puzzled. It was just skipping half a day of work. Was it that serious?
Wang Jingmin closed the door, turned around and stared at Xu Jie and asked, "Xiao Xu, is what the news said true?"
"News? What news?" Xu Jie was puzzled. Wasn't it about skipping work?
In fact, after he came here to work, he has always been taken care of by Wang Jingmin. In addition to his strong business ability, another point is that they are from the same school, and the other party is 20 years older than him.
"It's about your marriage to Su Yun." Wang Jingmin said.
"Who is marrying Su Yun?" Xu Jie raised his voice. It was not that he did not hear clearly, but he doubted what he heard.
"you!"
"I?"
Xu Jie was startled at first, then his face was full of confusion. Thinking back to when he met Su Yun this morning, he knew that he was proposed to, and he even remembered some of the reasons the other party used to convince him, but he couldn't remember whether they were married or not.
Well, I’m drunk!
Wang Jingmin was also confused by her junior's reaction. Why did this boy look even more surprised than her?
"Director, where see it?" Xu Jie asked after he came to his senses.
"It's on all major websites, and it's already ranked number one on the trending search list." Wang Jingmin handed her tablet to Xu Jie. "At first I didn't believe it, thinking it was some unscrupulous self-media outlet that photoshopped the picture to get clicks, but later I found out it was Su Yun herself who posted the marriage registration photo on Weibo. I think you're really tight-lipped, hiding such a big thing from me."
Xu Jie took the tablet skeptically. The director had already opened five or six web pages, all of which were news reports about Su Yun's marriage certificate. There were also screenshots of Su Yun's Weibo. The marriage registration photo was magnified so that every hair could be seen clearly. There was definitely truth in the picture.
He calmly put one hand into his bulging pocket and took a peek inside when the director wasn't paying attention. In addition to the wallet and household registration book, there was also a small red booklet, which was the marriage certificate.
Damn it!
He quickly raised his head as if he had seen a ghost, and then looked at himself in the registration photo. The corners of his mouth were upturned, his eyes were smiling, and his face was full of joy. He was so happy that snot bubbles were about to come out.
Coincidentally, both of them were wearing white shirts. The onlookers who did not know the truth would definitely think that this was a premeditated plan and that they had agreed to show off their love together.
The most bizarre thing is that Su Yun actually knew his Weibo and tagged him when she posted the certificate.
Finished!
Xu Jie's heart tightened. His Weibo account was verified and it clearly read: Reporter of Beijing TV Life Channel.
Once his information is exposed, he will definitely be denounced as a hooligan who cheats people for money and sex, and his fans will come to his house and beat him up so that he cannot get out of bed, and he will be socially dead from then on.
While returning the tablet to the director, he took out his phone from his pocket and logged into Weibo. The screen suddenly froze and he had to wait for more than ten seconds before it gradually became smooth. Then he saw the number of messages increasing, including those with comments, attention , and private messages. The number of fans increased from a few thousand to more than 200,000.
As expected, things are developing as expected.
"Give me back my goddess!"
"Who the hell are you to marry my idol?"
"The eyes are dull, the face is faceless, the little puppy is ridiculous."
"I really think you are not worthy of Su Yun , you piece of trash!"
“…”
In addition to private messages, there is also a recent Weibo post about some precautions for common and high-incidence diseases in winter, which has now become a message board for Su Yun's fans.
"What despicable means did you use, rubbish?"
"Get a divorce quickly and don't bring harm to Su Yun."
"Brothers, hit him."
“…”
Xu Jie rubbed his forehead fiercely with his hands. Su Yun's move was simply suicidal marketing, just like the suicide truck in Libya, which would not only explode itself but also blow others to pieces.
Does this woman really feel that the road is too smooth and the person is too famous and wants to slow down?
"Congratulations, you've become the public enemy of the entire Internet." Wang Jingmin said with a smile. She had already read Xu Jie's Weibo and knew that it was horrible. "I advise you not to go online recently, otherwise your heart will not be able to bear it."
Wang Jingmin was not joking. In the public's mind, only a male god can be worthy of a goddess, just like the princes are the ones who rescue the princesses in fairy tales.
Su Yun has rarely had any scandals in her many years since her debut and is a recognized goddess both inside and outside the circle. Now the goddess is marrying an ordinary man. Such an unmatched combination is bound to be opposed by fans, who will not allow their cabbages to be eaten by pigs.
CP can be unpopular, but it must not be weird.
At this moment, Xu Jie is cow dung in the eyes of the public, a pig in the eyes of fans, and a devil in the eyes of fat otaku, while Su Yun is a victim blinded by sweet words. Now everyone is vying to be a warrior to defeat the devil and save the princess, and the keyboard is undoubtedly their most powerful weapon at the moment.
Xu Jie understood the director's intention. He was afraid that he would be in a bad mood after reading too many comments. After all, many people have become depressed and autistic, and even gone to .
But he thinks this behavior is nothing but self-deception. If he doesn't go online and read it, will others stop scolding him? Obviously not.
He also vaguely remembered that Su Yun seemed to have mentioned that marriage was a test for both of them, an opportunity to prove themselves. If he didn't even dare to face online public opinion, then what was the difference between him and an ostrich that buries its head in the haystack when it encounters danger?
What would Tang Fei think? And what would Liu Jinghua think?
Having said that, for a loser to marry a goddess is something that will be envied, jealous and hated by others, and it is normal to be scolded by others. After all, these days no one can stand others living better than themselves.
Seeing Xu Jie remained silent, Wang Jingmin thought that he had heard her, so she patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "We are all your family. If you have anything to say, just tell us. Don't feel any pressure."
Xu Jie looked up at the director. Pressure? There is no such thing!
He is now full of energy and he wants to fight against the sky, the earth and the air immediately, until the final season of the plot, so that the old woman Liu Jinghua can swallow back all the words she said before and know what it means to ask for trouble.
When Wang Jingmin met Xu Jie's high-spirited eyes, she immediately realized that she was going to interrupt.
Yes, my junior brother has never been the kind of person who would be afraid of troubles. What's more, he has married a big star and a goddess. He is so happy that he can't wait to jump for joy. How could he be depressed?
"Ahem, get back to work."
Wang Jingmin waved her hands, really not knowing what to say. For a young reporter to marry a big star, it must be true love or ability. Junior brother is awesome.
"Yes, Director."
Xu Jie left the office, returned to his workstation, and immediately liked Su Yun's Weibo post. He then tagged Su Yun and posted a marriage registration photo as a response, implicitly showing off their affection and confirming the matter.
Let the storm come harder.
