70: Chapter 70: Five is acceptable, but are six or seven far behind?
"What method?" Yang Mi asked curiously.
"We can't control other people's legs, but we can control our own feet. At worst, we just dump Lin Chen. It's hard to find a three-legged toad in this world, but there are plenty of two-legged men. Who hasn't been married? Who hasn't had an ex-husband?"
Yang Mi knew her too well and immediately spat, "Stop playing dumb with me. You little flirt, are you trying to push me away so you can keep Lin Chen all to yourself?"
"Oh my, I was just saying that off the top of my head, why are you getting so worked up?" Dilraba giggled, her body trembling slightly.
"I can't be bothered with you!" Yang Mi said and prepared to hang up.
"Hey, Sister Mi, don't hang up yet." Dilraba's expression turned serious. "Let's be serious. Actually, what we just talked about isn't the trickiest part. Do you know what scares me the most?"
"What?"
"What scares me the most is that I've clearly seen that Tong Liya and Guli Nazha are interested in Lin Chen, and I've even imagined the absurd scenario of us all living under the same roof in the future."
"But... apart from feeling a little jealous, I didn't feel like the sky was falling, and I didn't even think about cutting ties with Lin Chen completely. Do you know what that means?"
Yang Mi didn't respond this time and remained silent.
Dilraba sighed softly, "It means that from the moment we started tacitly accepting each other's existence, or even playing a three-person game, our dignity and bottom line as women had already completely collapsed."
"And things like bottom lines, once broken, will retreat infinitely. If two women can share one husband, then adding three more doesn't seem like something we can't accept."
"If we can accept five today, can we accept six or seven tomorrow? It'll just be endless from now on..."
"Endless your sister!"
Yang Mi cursed in frustration and hung up the phone directly.
Dilraba playfully stuck out her tongue, handed the phone to Meng Pingping beside her, and gestured for the stylist to continue doing her hair.
As Meng Pingping tucked the phone into her bag, she leaned over sneakily and lowered her voice, "Sister Reba, that temporary assistant who just left, Du Hong, is wiping away tears outside."
"Who?"
"Du Hong!"
"Who is Du Hong again?"
"The young fresh meat assistant the TV station sent specifically to serve us."
"Why is he crying?"
"Uh... I guess he's your loyal fan who likes your looks. When he first came in, he saw you acting so cold and aloof, but then he turned his head and saw you smiling so flirtatiously at Brother Lin's video. I guess his idol filter shattered, and his innocent young heart is broken."
Dilraba glared at Meng Pingping, "You're talking a lot today. Is your work too slack?"
Meng Pingping shrank her neck and gave a dry laugh.
Dilraba ordered impatiently, "If you're bored, take your phone, go to my husband's personal live stream, and spam my name like crazy."
"Just spam your name?"
Dilraba said with some exasperation, "Use your brain, use the skills you usually use to write short essays. Do I need to teach you hand-in-hand for this?"
"Understood, on it right away!"
A few minutes later, in Lin Chen's personal live stream room.
On the public screen, which had been buzzing with chatter about the plot, a series of repetitive bullet comments suddenly began to appear regularly: "Dilraba is the Empress, everyone else back off!"
At first, everyone was spamming, and no one took it seriously.
But they couldn't stand the bullet comments being as endless as psoriasis, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of other fans.
"Dilraba is the Empress? I'm the first one to disagree! Yaya even took the initiative to let Brother Lin touch her tummy today. If she's not the Empress, who is?"
"I must cast this vote for Yang Mi. With my Big Mi's enchanting figure and queen aura, the Empress position belongs to no one but her!"
"For my nephew's lifelong event, I've broken my heart. In my opinion, Liu Shishi is the most suitable. This girl looks quiet and is suitable for managing the big picture at home."
"Forget it, Liu Shishi is just spacing out; that has nothing to do with being steady."
"Since you've all started dividing the family property, I must stand with Guli Nazha! Go Nazar, take the position of Empress!"
"Does Zu'er not deserve to have a name?"
"Um, did you guys leave out Sister Dandan from the Great Ming Lake?"
"The person who mentioned Sister Dandan earlier, are you an undercover agent sent by the King of Hell?"
While the netizens were arguing fiercely over the Empress position, the main force of the Divas Hit the Road Group had already arrived in Zhalantun City at noon, braving the scorching sun.
It wasn't far from the destination, Hulunbuir, with about four or five hundred kilometers left.
As long as there were no hitches on the road ahead and no thunderstorms to delay them, everyone would be able to arrive at the destination of this grassland trip before eight o'clock in the evening.
Lunch was settled at a local specialty restaurant in Zhalantun City, a place Lei Jiayin had someone find.
But after a meal, the group of picky stars were all smacking their lips.
They unanimously felt that the chef's cooking at this restaurant was a far cry from the bowl of hand-pulled noodles Lin Chen made in the morning.
To use Song Dandan's original words at the table: "You really don't know until you compare; one comparison and you're shocked."
"Compared to our Teacher Lin's skills, the things made by these restaurants outside can only be called animal feed!"
...
Having perfunctorily finished lunch, the Divas Hit the Road Group didn't stay long and hit the road again.
Once the cars passed Zhalantun City and continued driving north, the surrounding scenery began to change, and the human activity on both sides of the road became visibly sparse.
This situation was completely different from driving on highways inside the pass.
On the highways in the mainland, you could see a village or town every few days, and it was very lively.
But on the vast grassland, two slightly larger cities are often separated by large stretches of no-man's-land that extend to the horizon.
Looking out, apart from the endless green grass, there were only some sporadic deserts.
This magnificent scenery was indeed stunning when seen for the first time, but after looking at it for a long time, the desolation and loneliness that hit you in the face were something most people couldn't handle.
At least for those who are used to nightlife in the city, they would feel depressed after a long time.
The Divas Hit the Road Group was currently in this state.
Once the novelty wore off, visual fatigue set in, and the laughter gradually faded from the car.
Except for Lin Chen and Lei Jiayin who were holding the steering wheels in the front, all the other passengers in the two cars couldn't resist the sleepiness, and one by one, they tilted their heads and went to sleep.
"Teacher Lin, Teacher Lin, please answer if you receive this."
In the quiet car, the walkie-talkie suddenly crackled, and Lei Jiayin's rough voice popped out.
