Chapter 3
Chapter 3 — My Boyfriend and I Pretend to Be Poor Together
That night, after filming finished, everyone went to their own rooms, and Manh Tu Nhien posted a weibo post. @ManhTuNhien V: “Oh my, I was so busy filming the show that I forgot to turn off the annoying mode for messages from my crush (icon sticking out tongue).” Attached is a photo of a series of messages with more than 99+ messages, even though the avatar has been blurred. This morning, a series of hashtags climbed straight to the top of hot searches. “Oh my god, Tu Nhien, the person pursuing you is actually the young master of the Lac family?” At the dining table, a female guest held the phone and shouted excitedly. Manh Tu Nhien gently held the towel to dab his lips, smiling gracefully: "Oh, it's nothing, just friends." "Ugh, what kind of friend sends 99+ messages in the middle of the night, but because you don't reply, you lose your soul?" "It seems like Young Master Lac must be very fond of you, Tu Nhien, as expected of you, your temperament is too strong." Manh Tu Nhien raised his hand to tuck his hair behind his ear, smiled shyly, but did not deny it. “If I lose to Miss Lac, I will still be satisfied.” Looking at the infatuated guest who clearly had a place to put his heart, Ly Triet Tu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Remember when I studied abroad in England, and was lucky enough to study in the same course as Young Master Lac, he was truly scholarly, making me feel ashamed..." 【Lac Huan really loves me so much!】 【Oh my god, this love story wants to kill people huhu】 【Kswl! If you don't get married, it's a waste of life!】 【Huhu look at Ly Triet Tu, he's heartbroken, the couple I pushed the boat on might be BEING!?】 “Lac… Huan?” Suddenly, that name sounded familiar to me. Sitting in the corner, I suddenly mumbled. Suddenly a light flashed in my head - isn't that my childhood fiance? As soon as I understood, I raised my head and saw Manh Tu Nhien's cold eyes like a poisonous snake looking straight at me. 9 The lens just cleverly zoomed in on her face. The corners of Manh Tu Nhien's lips curled up, his smile was as gentle as the spring breeze. "What's wrong, does An Tam also know Lac Huan?" Having made it clear before that I would cancel my engagement with Lac Huan, how could I do such a vague green tea act? I quickly waved my hand and smiled wryly: "It's normal, we're not very close." It seems that because of the restaurant incident the other day, Manh Tu Nhien held a grudge in his heart and was not planning on letting it go so easily. "Uncle, close is close, not close is not close, but what's not very close?" “Speak clearly, otherwise people will misunderstand that you are trying to gain fame.” 【That's right, baby Tu Nhien is so right, this sister wants everything!】 【This sister is sick, she always wants to climb Tu Nhien's fame!】 【Hold on to fame for the rest of your life, you pitiful gato!】 I poked the plate of broccoli in front of me with my fork, calmly said: "It's normal, it's just... close enough to know he has a fiancee." Manh Tu Nhien's face froze at that moment, clearly panicked. Unexpectedly, on the other side of the livestream, Manh Tu Nhien's fans excitedly shouted first. 【Oh my god, it turns out baby Tu Nhien is the fiancee of the young master of the Lac family!】 【What! Tu Nhien's treasure is so humble, he's the young master of the Lac family!】 【Oh my god, I admire the future landlady of the Lac family!】 At this moment, I understand Arthur's pain of having to stay silent more than anyone else. No wonder people say fans are like idols, it's the same type of self-created illusion. Having fans and seeders backing public opinion, Manh Tu Nhien immediately spoke louder and his face regained composure. There are also many people who started asking questions: 【Why does she have a fiance and still participate in a dating show?】 【No one said the fiancee was her, right? You all admit it yourself, it's so funny.】 But everyone was quickly drowned out by Manh Tu Nhien's fans: 【You guys should stop favoring men over women, baby Tu Nhien is still young, how about choosing a few more people!】 【That's right, being a fish in the lake of beauty like Tu Nhien is their blessing!】 【That's what our big sisters are like!】 10 I laughed. faintly: "But as far as I know, Lac Huan's fiancee is not you." The smile in Manh Tu Nhien's eyes immediately faded a lot, his eyes looking at me became even more hateful. She was not polite at all, bluntly refuted in front of the camera: "It's not me, could it be you?" Seeing that I didn't speak, she proudly repeated with a provocative look: "What's wrong, don't tell me you're Lac Huan's fiancee?" “Uh… no.” It may have been true before I was born, but a few days ago I ceded that identity to An Nghien, now I don't. “It's not you, so why are you arguing with me?” "An Tam, do you secretly like Lac Huan? If so, let me say something for you." Her eyes swept over me from above, with clear contempt in her eyes. Fan Manh Tu Nhien immediately spammed comments: 【Tu Nhien is so temperamental, she is truly a lady of the palace!】 【Sister Tu Nhien smashed it to pieces in just one note!】 【This An Tam is the type of spoiled grapes, jealous and despicable!】 In a hidden corner behind the camera, my best friend pulled me over, my anger about to explode: "You bastard! It's obvious that you are the real lady of the An family, also I'm the fiancee promised to Lac Huan since childhood, why don't you make it public? I sighed: "Forget it, suddenly jumped out and admitted that I was the An family's genius, not to mention whether people would believe it or not, what about An Nghien?" Having just been accepted back home, my parents planned to hold a big party and officially announce my identity to the media. But I heard that An Nghien had just opened her own studio. If I flaunted my identity now and she was exposed as a fake genius, the studio would be in a difficult position, so I refused my parents. It was very difficult to calm my best friend down. As soon as I turned around, I saw Thuong Tu Nghien sitting alone in the corner with his head bowed. "Hey, what's wrong? Aren't you happy?" “I didn't see what you said just now.” I patted him on the shoulder, embracing him like a close brother. His eyes were vague, he looked at me for a long time, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth: "Do you... really like Lac Huan?" Unexpectedly, he also misunderstood like that. I burst out laughing and was about to open my mouth to explain - The director suddenly picked up the speaker and shouted an urgent announcement: "Lac Huan is about to fly straight here, to be the special guest of this episode!" 11 This variety show was originally invested by the Lac family. Lac Huan's father was not satisfied with his "emotional deviation" during the press conference, so he sent him here to "monitor" the program. As soon as the news came out, the comments immediately exploded: 【Master Lac can't stand it anymore hahahaha, his wife is about to be snatched away.】 【The live version of "The CEO follows his wife's cremation", it's so crazy!】 【CEO, hurry up, someone is bullying your family's Tu Nhien, come out and lecture!】 【Recommend being harsh! An Tam froze hahaha!】 A Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped right in front of the studio. Lac Huan wore a silver gray suit and walked in leisurely. From beginning to end, Manh Tu Nhien watched him with sweet eyes full of affection. “Tu Nhien, come quickly.” "Come on, Tu Nhien people know how to keep a low profile, these things should be left to men to take the initiative." I stood at the very back, quietly listening to the two other guests constantly flattering Manh Tu Nhien. Manh Tu Nhien also seems to be immersed in the fantasy of love, his face is innocent and dreamy of a girl. Lac Huan originally intended to go straight into the observation room, but as soon as he glanced at the guests, he suddenly stopped, as if he discovered something. He changed direction, striding straight towards us. “Tu Nhien, I came to find you!” The program team immediately added a flying pink balloon effect. “An Tam.” His voice was cold, clearly calling me by name. “Pop!” The bubble... burst. I'm confused. Why is Lac Huan looking for me? Out of politeness, I was just about to step forward and answer. Suddenly a hand gently pulled my arm. I tilted my head to look - It was Thuong Tu Nghien. Seeing me looking, his eyes were filled with restraint and confusion, and he quietly let go. “Sorry, I was too absent-minded just now…” I didn't detect anything unusual about him. As soon as I turned around, Lac Huan immediately pulled me to a corner. The camera also knows how to avoid it. 12 He looked at me, his voice filled with impatience: "Who is that guy named Manh? Why is he suddenly slandering me?" "Damn it, I really don't know Ms. Manh Tu Nhien at all! Is it because of this misunderstanding that An Nghien misunderstood me?!" Those with big livers eat their fill, those with small livers starve to death. With a thunderous shout from Lac Huan, the director immediately signaled the camera to pan straight at the two of us. It's true that for the view you don't need your life. Glancing at the camera, my face was as stiff as wood, not daring to say anything more.
