105: Chapter 105 Stubborn to Calculate
[No way, did I hear that right? What did he just say? Telling He He to get a divorce?]
[Everyone in the industry should know how loving He He and her husband are, right?]
[No, no, no, even if you aren't in the industry, that's way too presumptuous to say!]
[This isn't just a matter of being impolite; it's a complete lack of upbringing!]
...
The live stream comments were exploding, and the people on set weren't doing much better.
Lin Ran reacted quickly; under the table, she grabbed Lin Xiao's arm, signaling him not to continue.
Because after Lin Xiao finished speaking, she heard his inner thoughts.
It turned out that He He and her husband were not happy at all, and their displays of affection on various platforms were just an act for others to see.
He He's husband was also a celebrity, but his fame and status were much lower than He He's.
So at home, her husband always felt he had no status.
After being suppressed for so long, he went outside to seek confidence.
After all, he was considered a senior in the entertainment industry, and many young starlets threw themselves at him, and he never refused.
He He knew about this, but she still wasn't willing to get a divorce.
But how could this kind of thing be kept hidden forever?
When the day came that they could no longer tolerate each other, or when the matter was exposed, they would eventually have to divorce.
But if it really got to that point, He He's career would be severely affected, and she would never be able to regain her current status in the entertainment industry.
"Damn, I thought you could actually calculate something! Turns out you're just here to create show effects! But aren't you being a bit too disrespectful?" He Xiaomei laughed unceremoniously.
Just as Lin Xiao was about to say something, he felt Lin Ran's grip on his hand tighten.
"A-Xiao, we're live... some things shouldn't be said."
Lin Ran was worried that Lin Xiao would really blurt out all those messy details.
Even if they were true, it didn't mean the current audience, fans, or even He He herself could handle them.
Yan Sen was also a bit awkward and tried to smooth things over: "Lin Xiao, Fortune Telling is one thing, but you're not allowed to gossip about everyone's private lives!"
With Yan Sen's mediation, the atmosphere finally eased up a bit.
Only, no one noticed that He He, sitting to the side, still had a grave expression and gave Lin Xiao a meaningful look.
She was very certain that not many people knew about her relationship problems.
Just the assistants on both sides and those young starlets her husband had affairs with.
For the sake of their image, the assistants would absolutely never leak a single bit of information.
And those young starlets, in order to keep clinging to his coattails, shouldn't be running their mouths outside either.
Looking at Lin Ran, it seemed she hadn't expected Lin Xiao to say that either.
But Lin Xiao was an outsider, so how did he suddenly bring this up?
Could it really be Fortune Telling?
If that were really the case, He He actually wanted to ask a few more questions.
Because she had been feeling distressed and conflicted in her heart, not knowing what to do.
However, there were too many outsiders here, and it was a live stream, so she couldn't say anything.
Yan Sen was also afraid that Lin Xiao would continue to ramble on, so he decisively said: "Lin Xiao, why don't you do a reading for me too? But remember what I said, no prying into private matters!"
Lin Xiao looked at Yan Sen and said earnestly: "Brother Yan, you really don't have any shameful secrets."
Yan Sen gave a wry smile, "Should I take that as a compliment?"
"Although there's nothing shameful regarding your privacy, you are about to have problems with your work. That variety show you've hosted for many years is going to flop. You'd better start looking for other paths early."
Lin Xiao spoke with complete sincerity and seriousness, without a hint of joking.
Yan Sen opened his mouth. With his exceptional professional skills, in this situation, he was simply speechless for a long time.
"A-Xiao!" Lin Ran was practically dying of anxiety.
They were already on bad terms with Young Master Jie, and now they had offended both Yan Sen and He He all at once.
The official recording of the program hadn't even started yet. Having offended everyone, how were they supposed to manage the next few days?
"I suddenly feel a bit tired..." Lin Ran wanted to find an excuse to end this dinner that felt like a slaughterhouse.
But how could Young Master Jie let go of this opportunity to make Lin Xiao be despised by the entire internet?
Before Lin Ran could finish speaking, he interrupted: "Lin Xiao, since you're so amazing, why don't you do a reading for me too?"
Lin Xiao looked up and rolled his eyes at Young Master Jie, saying indifferently: "I wouldn't dare talk about your affairs. If I did, this show would have to stop filming today."
Young Master Jie frowned slightly, feeling a vague sense of unease in his heart. Could this kid really know something?
He never believed in metaphysics, and even less did he believe that one could really perform Fortune Telling just by taking a look. After pondering for a moment, he felt that Lin Xiao was just playing to the gallery.
He Xiaomei also felt that it was impossible for Lin Xiao to know everything, and she had to expose his true colors as a fraud right now!
"Lin Xiao, since you can calculate it, why not just say it? This show isn't that easy to stop, right, Director?" As she spoke, she looked towards Director Zhang.
Director Zhang was actually struggling with the decision too. He had some understanding of Lin Xiao's abilities and knew that Lin Xiao could truly calculate things.
He was worried that if something bad was said, it would cause problems for the show. But seeing the number of people in the Live Stream Channel gradually rising, which had already exceeded their expectations, he was reluctant to give up this wave of high traffic.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and nodded to He Xiaomei.
"See, even the Director doesn't mind, what are you afraid of?" He Xiaomei said with her head held high, looking arrogant.
"Perhaps Director Zhang doesn't know what he's facing yet." Lin Xiao chuckled and said indifferently, "If I said that Young Master Jie would be sent to prison after filming this episode, would you believe me?"
After speaking, as if recalling something, he turned to look at Director Zhang: "Director, if a guest goes in, won't your show have to be taken down? Should you consider replacing him now? You might still be able to recoup some losses."
