Chapter 1195: I Want to Make You Stay (73)

She already had her makeup done and was looking rather energetic.

With her phone in hand, she approached Fang Erlan and sat on the seat beside her before passing her phone to her. “Look, the discussion on my Weibo has gained over 200 thousand new comments…”

“Why are you showing it to me? I wasn’t even the one who instructed these netizens to comment on you.” Fang Erlan gave her a side glance and did not look at her phone.

“What I wanted to say was, if you and your future mother-in-law have communication problems, can you two not drag me into this? I don’t need to gain such popularity.” Even as she said this, there was no sign of frustration on her face.

“I haven’t seen your Weibo, but I can already guess what those netizens are discussing about you. They’re obviously trampling on me and showing support for you.”

“Yan Ge’s mother is still the same old person.” Yu Caiwei leaned against the chair and told her lazily, “A relationship that doesn’t have the support of one’s parents is bound to not work out in the end. His mother has very high standards and once told me that her son has to marry an educated and sensible girl from a prominent family, not someone from the entertainment industry. You’ve just gotten together with Yan Ge, and I see that she’s been here a few times already but hasn’t violently objected to you. She must have conceded because of Yan Ge. To think that you actually asked Yan Ge for a diamond ring worth a hundred million dollars.”

“There are rumors that you were once a mistress of a certain big shot, is that true?” Fang Erlan asked her instinctively.

“Of course it’s not!!!”

“How would I possibly know that?” Fang Erlan scoffed. “I only made a joke with him, but his mother took it seriously. I can already earn my own money now, and I was also born in the countryside, I’m not such a spendthrift or materialistic person.”

“What’s the point of telling me this? A lot of people are already convinced that you did ask Yan Ge for one. Unless Yan Ge refutes what his mother said in the presence of the media by claiming that what his mother said isn’t the truth and protecting you at all costs, everyone who’s doubtful about this will eventually believe that it’s the truth. But I believe he wouldn’t firmly refute what his mother said in front of the media, he will only make a roundabout explanation at most.”

“Why are you so sure about this?”

“Between their parents and their other half, men would usually choose their parents. Not all, but at least 80 percent of men would do that. Do you think he’s part of that 20 percent? If you think that way, it only means that you don’t understand him enough and that you don’t understand men well enough,” Yu Caiwei remarked as she fiddled with her nails. “This is the entertainment industry, which idiot would refute their parent’s words in front of the media and support their girlfriend? They’ll be berated for being unfilial, so it’s too difficult to do that.”

“I believe he’ll give a clear explanation regarding the incident about the diamond ring.”

Yu Caiwei laughed. “It all depends on how much he explains. An explanation can be a one-liner or a detailed one. Alright, I’ll proceed to the film set first. There are a lot of reporters outside the hotel looking for you. Never would I have expected that though your work hasn’t even been broadcasted, you’ll become popular because of such news. At least now, many people know your name. You should leave by the back door of the hotel later, there’ll probably be fewer reporters there.”

Fang Erlan sat there without uttering a word. Even until the makeup artist had finished helping her do her makeup, she still stayed put there.

“Sis Erlan, shall we go?” Xiao Yue asked gently.

“Go to the room to get my phone.” She passed Xiao Yue the room card and added, “Get my portable charger as well. I’ll wait for you here.”

“Alright.” Xiao Yue took the room card from her and swiftly headed there.

After she’d been waiting for her for about ten minutes, Xiao Yue had returned, but Yan Ge was still nowhere to be seen.

She finally asked, “Has Yan Ge come by already?”

The makeup artist answered, “He came at the break of dawn.”

She stood up from the chair and switched on her phone. She glanced at the screen and saw that the battery level was at 40 percent.

Putting on her earphones, she picked a song to play and left the makeup room.

While she had left by the back door of the hotel, there were still reporters there waiting for her. Although there weren’t many, it was still not quite easy for her to leave without saying a single word.

Fang Erlan put on a mask to cover her face and, once she went through the exit, the reporters immediately surrounded her.

“Fang Erlan, do you have any response to make?”

“Fang Erlan. Yan Ge’s mother claimed that you asked him for a diamond ring worth one hundred million dollars. Is this true?”

While she had wanted to leave without making any response, she couldn’t help but change her mind and removed her mask. Upon the sight of this, the reporters started to quieten down and all looked at her.

“It was just a joke between us as a couple. I grew up in the countryside, and usually, even spending a little more money on an item makes my heart ache. How could I possibly ask him for a hundred-million-dollar diamond ring? It isn’t true.”

“Then, toward what Yan Ge’s mother said, do you have anything to say in response?”

Fang Erlan appeared calm and composed. “I’ll send a post on Weibo to reply to that. Thank you.”

She went past the reporters and simply got onto her nanny van.

She had originally thought that after Yan Ge made a response to explain this incident, it would come to a conclusion.

However, after what she had said to the reporters, Yan Ge’s mother, who was also staying at a hotel at B City, immediately refuted her response, claiming that she had heard it with her own ears.

All that was left to salvage the situation now was for Yan Ge to come out and make a response.

Fang Erlan had thought that she would be able to see Yan Ge, but as she wasn’t able to, she could only give him a call.

Yet, he did not pick up.

She then called Xiao Li, who said that Yan Ge had finished his morning filming and was about to return to the hotel to negotiate with his mother about the matter.

She had gone to the film set from the hotel while he had left and was on the way back to the hotel.

They had missed each other just like that.

She was waiting for him to make a public response regarding the matter.

After filming a few scenes consecutively, Fang Erlan had her makeup touched up and sat on the chair with her phone in hand.

The page on her phone screen was none other than Yan Ge’s Weibo page. She was waiting for him to make an explanation so that she could respond to it thereafter. From how she saw it, this matter could then come to an end.

However, as more time passed, he still did not respond.

Fang Erlan’s originally calm heart started to get anxious.

She had no choice but to send a text to Yan Ge, pressing him to make a response on his Weibo account.

Finally, Yan Ge returned a call to her.

“Erlan, I’m really sorry about this incident.” Even though she could not see him face-to-face, from his voice, she could tell that he was probably looking awful. “It’s been hard on you. It wasn’t what you intended anyway. As long as you clarify this on your Weibo, it’s fine.” Fang Erlan asked, “How was your discussion with your mother?”

“It didn’t go well. She seems to have lost her rationality now and insists that she’s right. My words can’t get to her at all.”

Fang Erlan did not expect the Yan Ge’s mother would be so obstinate. It seemed like she was hell-bent on making them break up.

“You should post a response first, then come to the film set. I have something to say to you.”

“Alright,” Yan Ge responded, thereafter hanging up the call.

With her phone in hand, Fang Erlan stared at the phone screen and continued to refresh Yan Ge’s Weibo page repeatedly.

However, there was still no new post on his Weibo.

She went to shoot another scene and, when she returned, she finally saw a new update on his Weibo.

When she saw his new Weibo post to explain the situation, Fang Erlan was completely stunned. She stared at the post for a long time and carefully read it a few times.
