Shu Yi had not yet recovered, but the reporter had taken a photo of the scene that had just transpired. What was impressive was not only Shen Yin's action of steadily catching Shu Yi after she had fallen from the stage. There were also those few seconds when Shu Yi was suspended in midair, her dress billowing in the wind, looking like a fairy. Everyone present had seen it clearly. This was an unexpected accident, without any preparation, safety wires or anything. The two people who should have fallen into the hole in the stage were now standing perfectly fine before them, as if they had flown over.
When he saw the stage collapse, Wang Ming had taken out his phone, preparing to dial 120. But the outcome exceeded his expectations.
It was as if time had stopped; the atmosphere at the scene was exceptionally quiet.
Shu Yi did not have time to react to any of this, but she seemed to understand why Shen Yin had changed into this outfit.
After the initial panic, Wang Ming contacted the staff to deal with the stage. The host immediately went to the front to control the situation. "Dear friends, there has been some accident on site. Today's press conference must come to an end now. Again, thanks to all the media and friends who have taken time out of your busy schedule to attend this press conference. To express our gratitude, the crew has prepared some souvenirs for everyone."
Backstage in the dressing room, Shu Yi looked at the plain-clothed Shen Yin and asked, "Did you know beforehand that I would be in danger today?"
Shen Yin smiled. "Yes, guess how I knew?"
Shu Yi paced back and forth in front of Shen Yin. Her right index finger on her chin and her left hand supporting her left arm. She sized up Shen Yin from time to time, as if thinking hard.
Shen Yin said jokingly, "I dreamed it."
"Impossible." Shu Yi did not believe it at all. Shen Yin had said it, precisely because she knew Shu Yi would not believe her.
"I was thinking, there must be many people and many things going on at the press conference. And you're my studio's spokesperson. Shouldn't I come take a look, just in case something happens to you, so I can help?" As for this outfit, aren't I giving you more exposure and trending searches?"
Shu Yi thought, that was true. It's just that the accident did happen in the end.
"Are you done for today?" Shen Yin asked.
"No, the crew still needs me this afternoon." Shu Yi answered truthfully.
"Then I'll head back first. Zhengzheng is still waiting for me at my mom's place." Shen Yin said, changing her clothes at the same time.
Sitting at the dressing table, Shen Yin used a makeup removal wipe to clean off all the makeup on her face, instantly revealing fair and flawless skin. She then let down her hair and put on a fisherman's hat. It seemed like she had thought of something.
"Shu Yi, stay safe. Yan Yan, keep by Shu Yi's side at all times."
Shu Yi felt something was off. "Do you mean the accident earlier may not have just been an accident?"
"I don't know the specifics yet. But we must guard against dangers before they arise. I guess someone will investigate." Shen Yin was right. Xu Xiuhe had already notified Qingfeng Mingyue's person in charge earlier this morning. If something unexpected happens at the press conference for “The Legend of Yan Xi”, investigate immediately.
At this moment, Xu Xiuhe sat in the office of Heyuan Group’s CEO, reading the messages sent from Qingfeng Mingyue, deep in thought. Shen Yin’s dream had come true again. If it was a coincidence once, twice could hardly be explained away.
Xu Xiuhe seemed to have thought of something and immediately called Shen Yin. The few seconds as the call connected felt exceptionally long to him.
"Hi, what's up?" Shen Yin answered.
"You okay?" Xu Xiuhe only knew that Shen Yin had gone to the press conference, nothing else.
"I'm fine. On my way to Yuelan Residence now." Shen Yin spoke on the phone while driving.
"Don't ever tell others about the dream thing, including Shu Yi." Xu Xiuhe reminded.
"Got it. I was just joking about it with Shu Yi earlier. She absolutely didn't believe me. Thank you for having such faith in me." Shen Yin did not want to get sentimental, but having someone who unconditionally trusted and supported you felt truly special.
"Alright, take care and drive slow. No need to cook when you get back at noon. I'll ask Chen Siming to deliver food to you."
"No need. Do you think my mom won't ask me to stay for lunch this late into the day? " Shen Yin felt Fang Yue really loved her, no, she should say, Fang Yue really loved the original owner. Since the original was no longer around, she would enjoy this love on her behalf.
"Okay, drive slowly." Xu Xiuhe still felt uneasy.
After hanging up, Shen Yin obediently followed Xu Xiuhe’s advice by slowing down and observing traffic rules.
On his news feed, Xu Xiuhe saw a video of a woman in black, wearing sunglasses and a mask, saving Shu Yi from the collapsed stage. Her movements were agile. Others could not recognize her as Shen Yin, but Xu Xiuhe knew with one glance—he had witnessed Shen Yin’s skills before. What surprised him was how strong she was, able to lift and leap with Shu Yi in her arms.
The comments below were diverse. Some praised Shu Yi’s beauty, some the stunning dress.
Upon seeing the dress, Xu Xiuhe called Liu Bo again. "Buy hot searches for Yunyin Studio, target top 5."
The observant netizens had dug up the previous video of when Shu Yi trended.
[This is the same person right, mad skills.]
[Should be a bodyguard. The previous video was too far to see her face clearly, but you can in this one.]
[She's wearing sunglasses and a mask, still can’t see clearly.]
[Who cares, must be a bodyguard dressed like that.]
[So cool. This lady bodyguard trained at Shaolin Temple? Carrying my goddess and jumping so far.]
[With such a capable bodyguard, I can rest easy about my lady goose.]
It worked. Shu Yi trended again, bringing Yunyin Studio, “The Legend of Yan Xi”, the dress, and female bodyguard along. The top 5 trending searches were all related to Shu Yi.
Upon seeing these topics trending, Chang Zhiyuan called Shu Yi at once.
"Not scared, are you? The one carrying you was Shen Yin?"
"Yes."
"I’ll arrange two more bodyguards for you next. You’re famous now, top 5 searches related to you. Must be some envious ones out there."
"Thanks for the arrangement."
No word of thanks for him? The more Chang Zhiyuan thought about it, the more annoyed he felt. He was the one who had arranged the bodyguards, yet she did not thank him?
Shu Yi did not care what Chang Zhiyuan thought. Hanging up, she opened Weibo. It was true, all related to her. So was she popular now? That was quick.
Shen Yin also received many calls from excited assistants at the studio, updating her about the influx of orders.
After lunch, Fang Yue still couldn’t bear for Zhengzheng to leave and persuaded Shen Yin to stay and play a while longer.
Shen Yin wanted to as well, but the studio was really busy. She also wanted Zhengzheng by her side to care for him anytime. Yet she aspired to be capable and contribute. What should she do?
