Best Actor: No Interruptions Please
墨書 Inktalez
Qiao Yuan is married and has a child!
Qiao Yuan and Best Actor have a child together!
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw the glaring Trending Topic and my phone blowing up with calls from my agent.
My heart skipped a beat.
When did my marriage and childbirth news get leaked?!
I saw numerous marketing accounts frantically sharing a photo of me shopping at a Baby Store.
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe it! Qiao Yuan is actually with Best Actor!”
“Is this the little romance between a couple? Best Actor just went in to buy something, and then Qiao Yuan followed right after!”
“Actually, you two could be together; we wouldn’t mind!”
“I saw Qiao Yuan say in an interview that she wasn’t single, but I thought she was joking... I can’t believe it’s true! She has a child with Best Actor!”
Noticing that the male lead is Best Actor, I instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.
This is fake.
But then I snapped back to reality: ???
What the hell!
I quickly messaged Best Actor Fu Huaichuan:
“Mr. Fu, should we clarify this on both sides?”
I also have a family; if that man sees this Trending Topic, it would be explosive!
After sending it, I saw the chat box show “The other party is typing…,” but after waiting for half an hour, there was still no message from him.
Half an hour later, another Weibo post topped the Trending Topic.
It was my rival, Yu Yan Ying, publicly revealing me:
“I didn’t know when my son’s mother became someone else?
This isn’t how you ride on trends!”
I: ???
The whole internet exploded!
“What the hell? Did we mistake who the Sister-in-law is?”
“Oh my god! The real wife of Best Actor is actually our Yingying!”
“Ha ha… This wave of attention has definitely been seized by that woman Qiao Yuan!”
“If we’re talking about public opinion manipulation, it’s definitely that disgusting woman Qiao Yuan. Just as the news about Best Actor being secretly married and having a child broke, all these marketing accounts posted about her going to the same Baby Store right after him. These marketing accounts must have been arranged by Qiao Yuan!”
“People in the industry must have known about Best Actor’s secret marriage and child before us; perhaps Qiao Yuan calculated all of this! Otherwise, how could such coincidental events happen? Nowadays, many novels feature vicious female characters impersonating others!”
"My sister's classmate confirmed that Qiao Yuan paid these marketing accounts."
Me: ???
Oh my god.
The comments section was so convincing that I almost believed it myself.
I opened the chat page with Fu Huaichuan and sent a question mark, only to see a bright red exclamation mark appear on the page.
I was blocked...
Immediately after, I saw Best Actor Fu Huaichuan retweeting Yu Yan Ying's Weibo post with the caption:
"There is only one wife in this life, surname Yu, given name Yan Ying. Unrelated people, please refrain from riding the coattails of popularity; Sima Zhao's intentions are known to all."
I am a black-and-red female star in the entertainment industry, and any little movement about me attracts a wave of public opinion.
Moreover, this time it was Best Actor Fu Huaichuan personally coming out to hammer me.
Now, those netizens who were still observing whether there was any misunderstanding have completely sided with Yu Yan Ying.
The online insults directed at me are unbearable to look at.
My manager Sister Bai quickly called, starting with a scolding:
"I really witnessed what it means to be shameless today! Yu Yan Ying has never liked you, and on top of that, she and Fu Huaichuan have always claimed to be single. Now that their secret marriage and child have been exposed, they dragged you down to divert public attention! This is infuriating; they’ve lost all shame!"
Clearly, Yu Yan Ying and Fu Huaichuan have successfully diverted attention.
"But why did you go to Baby Store?"
I went to Baby Store to buy clothes for my newborn nephew.
But obviously, saying that now would probably not convince anyone.
Just as I was about to say something more, a familiar photo caught my eye.
An ID named "Yuan Yuan is My Wife" commented under Fu Huaichuan's Weibo:
"What nonsense, does my wife need to ride on the popularity of random people?"
Accompanied by a picture of me with Pei Yu and our five-year-old son Pei Xiaoyi, a family photo of three.
This comment initially went unnoticed, but Pei Yu directly opened hundreds of accounts to flood the comments section.
Wow.
I liked it and retweeted it.
Now the entire internet exploded.
Pei Yu, the youngest son of Old Master Pei, is also the actual power holder of the Pei Family.
The outside media had only heard of the Pei Family's powerful figure, known for being elusive, but had never seen this person. After I secretly married and had a child with him, I devoted myself entirely to my career, and for all these years, he has been the one taking care of the child.
A comment I liked quickly shot up to trending topics, and insults followed in droves.
"6666, is Qiao Yuan trying to clear her name? Which actor did she pay to hire? The big one and the small one both look pretty good!"
"Clearly a plastic surgery face; the stinky woman really is a stinky woman, and she found a plastic surgery guy. Look at how arrogant he is!"
"I'm dying of laughter; did she not get enough attention and is now breaking down?"
When my manager, Sister Bai, rushed to my house, I was on a video call with the big one and the small one.
Sister Bai looked panicked: "Yuan Yuan, is that group photo real or...?"
Sister Bai's words were cut off because she heard a crisp "Mommy."
Sister Bai: "!!!"
"Hello, Auntie, I'm Pei Xiaoyi."
Pei Xiaoyi saw Sister Bai and waved his little hand to greet her.
Sister Bai was momentarily stunned, then stammered into the phone video: "Y-you, hello... you look so handsome!!"
Pei Xiaoyi nodded indifferently: "Thank you."
Sister Bai was already dumbfounded.
In the video, Pei Yu spoke up: "Those two are named Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying, right? I'll go blacklist them."
"Don't."
I hurriedly interrupted.
Given my black-and-red reputation, I could already guess that if Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying were blacklisted one second, the next second there would be headlines like "Qiao Yuan is hooking up with her sugar daddy" or "Qiao Yuan's sugar daddy steps in."
"I'll handle it myself."
Since those two wanted to divert attention... let them do it well!
I narrowed my eyes; I already had a plan in mind.
At that moment, Sister Bai received a phone call. After hanging up, she turned to me and said:
"Fu Huaichuan's exit has caused quite a few partners to terminate contracts with you. The company plans to have you and your... husband and child appear on a variety show for one last profit."
"No way!"
Without thinking twice, I immediately refused.
I could go on the show, but having Pei Yu and Pei Xiaoyi expose themselves? Am I crazy?
"If you don't agree with the company, they will terminate your contract! The penalty is astronomical; you'll have worked for nothing all these years!"
I was about to say something more when Pei Yu's voice came through the video first: "Participating in a variety show? Sure, Xiao Yi and I were just thinking of experiencing Yuan Yuan's daily work."
Pei Xiaoyi nodded seriously: "Mom, wait for me and Dad; we're coming back to the country right now!"
After saying that, the video on the other side was disconnected.
I: "..."
Sister Bai turned her attention to me and finally asked the question she had been holding back: "When did you have kids?!"
"Before entering the industry."
Sister Bai's voice rose: "Before entering the industry?! It's been five years?! Ahhh, you actually kept this from me for so long!"
I comforted her: "It's okay, Sister. If you find out later, it will be even longer."
Sister Bai: "...Then I should thank you."
After saying that, Sister Bai seemed to remember something and reminded me: "By the way, this time on the variety show, Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying's family of three will also be there. Be careful, and about your husband... he sounds a bit arrogant... I've heard Fu Huaichuan has a complicated background; you guys shouldn't have a direct conflict with them..."
I: ...

The news that Fu Huaichuan, Yu Yan Ying, and I would be appearing on a parent-child variety show quickly swept across the internet.
"Wow, even the attention-seeking woman is going on a variety show? And she's bringing along her fake husband and fake son? What is the director thinking? Don't they care about the audience's feelings at all?"
"In order to clear her name, Qiao Yuan really is going all out. Just thinking about her pretending to be a loving family with her actor husband and actor son on the show makes me laugh until my stomach hurts."
"The big one and the little one helping Qiao Yuan act—don't you feel ashamed at all?"
"Two disgusting men; just bury them already!"
Seeing the comments online, I got angry.
It's fine if they insult me, but insulting Pei Yu and Pei Xiaoyi is not acceptable.
Right then, I logged into my main account to fire back:
"Did your brain get flooded? Is that why you're talking so mindlessly?"
"Have your mouth been pickled for years? Is it flavorful?"
"You're just like an old monk's wooden fish—born to be beaten!"
Without a doubt, the term "Qiao Yuan lacks quality" trended again.

This parent-child variety show was broadcast live throughout.
As soon as Pei Yu, Pei Xiaoyi, and I arrived there, the cameras instantly focused on us.
The audience in the live stream initially had a mindset of watching a show, but when they saw Pei Yu and Pei Xiaoyi, they exploded with excitement.
"Wow, this father and son look so alike! They are even better looking than in the photos!"
"Oh my gosh, Qiao Yuan must have spent a lot to get these two actors!"
"Hehe... they were made from the same mold, how could they not be good looking?"
Yu Yan Ying and Fu Huaichuan arrived a bit earlier than us. Between them sat a little boy who looked about three to five years old, wearing an impatient expression as he glanced around.
Fu Huaichuan stood up and walked over to Pei Yu, extending his hand.
"Hello, I am Fu Huaichuan."
The comments started rolling in.
"Woo woo woo, my brother is so magnanimous. Even with Qiao Yuan trying to ride on his coattails, he still remains so graceful! If it were me, I'd want to throw up just seeing Qiao Yuan!"
Pei Yu had a cold expression and shook Fu Huaichuan's hand: "Pei Yu."
Fu Huaichuan's face instantly changed; he wanted to pull his hand back but found himself unable to move.
In contrast, Pei Yu showed no change in expression.
I knew that Pei Yu was standing up for me.
Yu Yan Ying also came over to greet me, but I ignored her. In front of the camera, Yu Yan Ying didn't seem upset.
The moment I took my seat, she leaned in and whispered in my ear:
"I really underestimated you. To clear your name, you went all out and found a big and a small pretty boy to publicly claim they are your husband and son."
After saying that, Yu Yan Ying smiled again and quietly spoke to Pei Xiaoyi:
"Little brat, your clothes don’t even have a label; they must have cost ten bucks at a street stall, right? As long as you publicly admit you’re an actor hired by Qiao Yuan, Auntie will gift you a piece from Balenciaga."
"Hahaha, I almost forgot; you probably don’t know what Balenciaga is, do you? See that white shirt my son is wearing? It’s worth five figures."
Pei Xiaoyi calmly tugged at my sleeve: "Mommy, which sewer wasn’t closed properly that let this old lady crawl up here?"
"Pfft."
Good thing I hadn't taken a sip of water; otherwise, I would have choked.
Yu Yan Ying's mouth twisted in anger, but in front of the camera, she couldn't do anything to Pei Xiaoyi, only her eyes reddened.
The viewers in the live stream were not pleased.
"Old lady? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree; Qiao Yuan, this disgusting woman has no class, and her child is just as uncouth!"
"At such a young age, such a sharp tongue? Better watch out or you'll die young!"
"Hehe, what? Is Qiao Yuan trying to establish a sharp-tongued persona for her child?"
"Qiao Yuan, how shameless can you be? Riding on our Best Actor and Yingying's popularity while trying to let your child ride along too? Are you really that shameless?"
The rolling comments darkened Pei Yu's face.
He reached out with one arm around my shoulders while placing his other hand on Pei Xiaoyi's head:
"Yuan Yuan, has your judgment become this poor? When did you start riding on the coattails of every Tom, Dick, and Harry?"
I tugged at Pei Yu's sleeve and said, "Don't be like that. Kittens and puppies are so cute! Some people aren't even worthy to compare with them."
Pei Yu quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, it was my mistake."
Our back-and-forth made Yu Yan Ying and Fu Huaichuan's faces darken.
In the live stream, the fans of these two were losing their cool.
"What does Qiao Yuan mean by this? Looking down on Best Actor Fu? Do you know Best Actor Fu's identity and background?"
"I can't believe how pretentious some people can be. Do they even know their own status? Let me tell you! Our Best Actor is from the Pei Family! You can't even compare to a toe of Best Actor!"
I caught the information in the comments.
Pei Family?
I raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Which Pei Family?"
The comments quickly responded:
"Of course, it's the one from Pei Group! But our Best Actor carries his mother's surname!"
I looked at Pei Yu and asked, "Your family?"
Pei Yu frowned and replied, "I've never met them."
After saying that, Pei Yu turned to Fu Huaichuan and coldly said, "I'm also from the Pei Family; why haven't I seen you before?"
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
Fu Huaichuan's expression changed, but being Best Actor, he quickly composed himself.
He asked, "What is your name?"
"Pei Yu."
Fu Huaichuan took out his phone and made a video call.
The video was quickly answered, revealing a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man respectfully greeted, "Young Master."
Fu Huaichuan nodded coldly and turned the phone around, scanning Pei Yu with the camera before asking:
"Do you know this person? His name is Pei Yu."
The middle-aged man in the video frowned slightly and replied, "Reporting to Young Master, I do not know him."
While Fu Huaichuan was on the video call, the cameraman also shifted the camera to capture it.
The audience in the live stream recognized the middle-aged man in the video and couldn't help but gasp.
"Wow—this is the butler of the Pei Family!"
"The butler of the Pei Family? No way! I've seen him next to Old Master Pei before!"
【Pei Family Butler... called Best Actor Young Master?! What is Best Actor's identity in Pei Family!】
【The most mysterious figure in Pei Family is the elusive head of the family... The Pei Family butler just addressed Best Actor as Young Master, could it be that Best Actor's identity is really what I think it is?!】
Yu Yan Ying answered the question from the comments with action.
She extended a finger, placed it in front of her mouth, and shushed towards the camera.
"Everyone, don't spread this around, Huai Chuan is more low-key."
At this, the comments exploded.
The staff nearby and other guests participating in the variety show looked at Fu Huaichuan with admiration and enviously glanced at Yu Yan Ying.
The director took the opportunity to step forward and said, "This time our program will be filmed at Rose Manor, provided by Mr. Best Actor!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding staff cheered.
The comments kept rolling.
【Rose Manor? The largest estate in Kyoto! Owned by Pei Family! It’s said that every inch of land there is worth its weight in gold, ahhh, is Best Actor going to show us something amazing?!】
【Did that pretty boy see this? If he’s not surnamed Pei, he must be a member of the Pei Group, yet he questioned us about why we hadn’t seen Best Actor in Pei Family, turns out it’s because the Pei Family butler hasn’t seen him! Is he getting slapped in the face now?】
【This guy named Pei Yu, I’ve always felt he was very pretentious.】
【Everyone stop cursing, he’s just riding on this wave of popularity.】
【I knew he was just trying to show off; turns out he wanted to ride on the hype!】
Pei Yu: "6."
Me: ...
However, things were not over yet.
Everyone boarded the bus heading to Rose Manor.
On the bus, to liven up the atmosphere, the production team had the guests play Truth or Dare, with questions drawn by viewers in the live stream.
The first pointer landed on Fu Huaichuan.
Fu Huaichuan chose Truth, and the comments began to roll; the host randomly selected a question and asked:
"I want to know if Mr. Best Actor and Yu Yan Ying have a child together legally or not."
As soon as this question was asked, Yu Yan Ying's fans were unhappy and angrily scolded the netizen who posed the question.
【What do you mean? Are you implying our goddess Yingying had a child out of wedlock?】
【Do you think everyone is like you, lacking self-respect?】
The netizen who was scolded replied in the comments:
【I just thought that for a big family like Pei Family, they would care about matching social status.】
【Matching social status? What era are we in? Are you from the Qing Dynasty?】
"Hehe, the person above must be a snob! Just because you're a snob, you think everyone else is too?"
...
The barrage of comments kept flooding in, and the user who asked the question ended up deactivating their account.
Fu Huaichuan held Yu Yan Ying's hand and said, "Yingying is the young lady of the Qiao Group."
"!!! What? No way! My Yingying is actually the young lady of the Qiao Family!"
"The only family that matches with the Pei Family is the Qiao Family... Oh my gosh! My Yingying has never revealed her identity to anyone, and she has worked hard to get to where she is now. She's truly an inspirational goddess!"
"The young lady of the Qiao Family and the heir of the Pei Family are both elusive figures; I can't believe they are a couple..."
"What a great day! We actually saw both the heir of the Pei Family and the young lady of the Qiao Family at the same time!"
"To the person who just said my Yingying isn't worthy of marrying into the Pei Family, how do you feel now?"
I was like, "???"
"Wait, are you guys just throwing around identities and backgrounds?"
I was stunned, shocked, and speechless.
Yu Yan Ying was enjoying the praise from the comments when she slightly frowned at my words.
The viewers in the live stream were not pleased.
"What does Qiao Yuan mean? Don't believe what the Best Actor says?"
"I'm dying of laughter; I just realized Qiao Yuan's last name is Qiao. Is she trying to say she's actually the young lady of the Qiao Family?"
"Is she so immersed in her acting that she gave herself a Qiao family identity and arranged for Pei Yu to be a prince of the Pei family?"
"I declare this is the funniest joke of the year."
Yu Yan Ying chuckled lightly and took out her phone to video call someone saved as 'Brother.'
Before long, Qiao Heng's face appeared on the big screen.
"Oh my! It's the young master of the Qiao family!"
Qiao Heng was on vacation abroad, wearing colorful baggy shorts, with his girlfriend in his arms.
When his girlfriend saw Yu Yan Ying, her eyes lit up instantly as she greeted, "Sister! What's up? What are you doing?"
Yu Yan Ying smiled gently, "Nothing much, I'm participating in a show with Ah Chuan and wanted to see what you and Ah Heng are up to."
Fu Huaichuan leaned in to greet Qiao Heng as well.
"It’s well known that there’s a young lady and a young master in the Qiao Group. While the young lady is elusive, young master Qiao Heng is quite a playboy and often appears in public."
"Yingying really surprised us all!"
It also gave me a huge surprise.
I was so shocked my jaw almost dropped.
The video call with Yu Yan Ying has been disconnected. She spoke with a calm expression, "I prefer to keep a low profile, but that doesn't mean I can tolerate others questioning me at will." After saying this, she glanced at me with a condescending attitude.
I took out my phone, found Qiao Heng in my contacts, and dialed a video call. The phone rang for quite a while before it was answered. The face of Qiao Heng's girlfriend appeared on the screen.
"Who are you?" she asked, looking at me with suspicion.
"Hello, I'm looking for Qiao Heng," I replied.
She rolled her eyes. "Qiao Heng isn't here. Can't you tell me what you need?"
I opened my mouth to say something, but she quickly added, "If there's nothing, I'm hanging up." I didn't even get a word out.
【Qiao Yuan actually has Qiao Heng's contact information?】
【It's normal if she does; after all, she has many tricks up her sleeve!】
【This is hilarious. Is Qiao Yuan trying to learn from Yingying and call Qiao Heng 'sister'? I think she's lost her mind!】
【She has nothing to do with you; why should she call you sister? Qiao Heng's girlfriend is so cool, not giving any face to a shameless woman like Qiao Yuan!】
【I really think we should send Qiao Yuan to a mental hospital; people like her are rare these days.】
【She's a dedicated goddess~ She probably gets into character so much that she can't stand not acting for a day!】
I darkened my expression and sent a text message.
【Suspend all of Qiao Heng's cards.】
Due to Yu Yan Ying's identity surprising the production team greatly, all attention was focused on her as they continuously asked her questions. Topics about Yu Yan Ying trended one after another.
Rose Manor soon arrived. Everyone got off the bus. Yu Yan Ying and Fu Huaichuan's child is named Fu Xiaobao. He jumped off the bus first, looking quite familiar with the surroundings.
【I'm so envious of Xiaobao; his dad is the prince of the Pei Family, and his mom is the young lady of the Qiao Family. Xiaobao was born at the top!】
"When Little Bao grows up, he will be the heir of both Pei Qiao families, a tremendous fortune awaits!"
"I'm not saying anymore, I need to hurry and have a daughter with my husband, hoping that Little Bao will take a liking to her in the future."
At the entrance of Rose Manor, someone was already waiting.
It was the butler of the Pei Family.
He respectfully bowed to Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying.
"Young Master, Madam, please follow me."
Rose Manor is very large, filled with roses inside. As soon as they entered, the staff of the program couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Fu Xiaobao bounced into the living room at the front. Once inside, he seemed to think of something, turned his head, and pointed with his little finger: "He can't come in!"
Following his finger, they saw Pei Xiaoyi.
"Hehe, let Qiao Yuan make trouble all the way! Now my son is disliked by Little Bao!"
"Woohoo, Little Bao is so cute! That little finger is so fair and tender; I just want to pinch it."
Pei Xiaoyi looked at him coldly: "Why not?"
"Why not? This kid hasn't realized what the situation is yet! This is our Little Bao's home!"
"Our Little Bao's home lets whoever he wants in. What’s with these kids today? So shameless from such a young age? Not letting him in and still asking why!"
Yu Yan Ying hugged Fu Xiaobao, smiling gently: "Baby, we are filming a show now. If you don't let that little brother in and leave him outside alone, he will be sad."
"Yingying speaks so gently to Little Bao!"
"This shows the importance of upbringing; our Yingying knows how to teach children well."
Fu Xiaobao snorted coldly, said nothing, and started bouncing on the sofa in his shoes.
Yu Yan Ying walked over to Pei Xiaoyi, extending her hand as she spoke, wanting to pat Pei Xiaoyi's head: "Little friend, my Little Bao allows you to come in."
Pei Xiaoyi dodged away and was not touched by her, walking straight into the living room.
This action immediately displeased the viewers in the live stream.
"Can Qiao Yuan's son have some manners? He gets a chance to go in and acts like this?!"
"The show just started, and he called our Yingying 'old lady'? That already showed his lack of manners; now he's even worse!"
"I can't take it anymore; I'm going crazy! The Qiao Yuan family is really despicable! I'm taking a taxi to Rose Manor! I’m ready with rotten eggs and spoiled vegetables; I'll wait outside for the Qiao Yuan family to come out!"
After scanning around, Pei Xiaoyi frowned slightly and sent a message from his smartwatch.
The program staff all came in.
They were exploring around.
One of the staff members walked over to a vase and gasped in shock.
"This is a vase from the Song Dynasty Official Kiln! Wow! The quality, the style, it's so beautiful!"
Everyone was drawn over by his voice.
"I've heard of this vase; it was auctioned off at the auction in Haicheng, and it sold for six hundred million!"
"Wow—"
The crowd gasped.
"A vase worth six hundred million? And it's just casually placed in the living room!"
"Goodness, no wonder the Pei Family is so wealthy! I'm really envious!"
"It's not six hundred million, it's five hundred million."
Everyone turned to look at Pei Xiaoyi, while Fu Huaichuan frowned slightly, seemingly displeased with Pei Xiaoyi's abrupt comment.
The staff rolled their eyes: "Do you know what the Song Dynasty represents? Have you studied history? If you don't know, stop talking nonsense."
[A little brat, thinking that just because he speaks up, he seems knowledgeable? It's really funny.]
[I find that Qiao Yuan's family likes to show off quite a bit.]
The staff's voice caught Fu Xiaobao's attention. He jumped off the sofa and ran to the table, wanting to take down the vase. However, due to his height, he accidentally bumped the bottom of the vase with his hand, causing it to roll off the table and shatter on the floor.
Fu Huaichuan, sitting on the sofa, suddenly stood up with a changed expression!
"Wow—"
The staff closest to Fu Xiaobao quickly stepped back.
Fu Huaichuan approached Fu Xiaobao, slightly opened his hands but then restrained himself, his face turning pale.
The people around didn't notice Fu Huaichuan's change; Fu Xiaobao looked indifferent and even kicked at the broken pieces of the vase on the ground.
Yu Yan Ying stepped forward and gently patted Fu Xiaobao's head: "Little Bao, you're being naughty again."
Fu Xiaobao huffed and tried to run outside with his short legs.
Standing next to him was Pei Xiaoyi, who quickly moved aside to avoid being bumped into by Fu Xiaobao.
Fu Xiaobao stopped in his tracks, frowning in dissatisfaction, and suddenly turned around to push Pei Xiaoyi.
The ground was covered in shards of the vase.
Fortunately, Pei Xiaoyi reacted quickly and dodged out of the way.
However, this dodge caused Fu Xiaobao, who had put all his strength into his push, to stumble and fall onto the shards!
The pieces pierced into his hands and cut his face, and an ear-piercing cry erupted immediately.
Yu Yan Ying was stunned and quickly rushed over to pick up Fu Xiaobao.
"Little Bao!"
The surrounding staff were also taken aback by this unexpected scene and hurriedly scrambled to call for emergency services.
The butler of the Pei Family walked in from outside and instantly changed his expression upon seeing the scene. He approached Pei Xiaoyi and unexpectedly raised his hand to slap her! However, the slap did not land on Pei Xiaoyi as it was intercepted by Pei Yu.
Pei Yu grabbed the butler's hand and kicked him in the stomach, knocking him to the ground. With a cold expression, Pei Yu looked at the Pei Family butler and said, "You really are... tired of living." The butler grimaced in pain.
Yu Yan Ying shouted with red eyes, "Someone! Capture these three!" The people around dared not make a sound. The comments were flooding in.
"Oh my god, I'm really furious! How can Qiao Yuan's son be so despicable! Seeing Xiao Bao injured makes my heart break!"
"Yingying is angry. Qiao Yuan, Pei Yu, are you ready to face the wrath from both the Qiao and Pei families?"
"I want to tear Qiao Yuan's son apart!"
However, even after a minute had passed since Yu Yan Ying spoke, no one had appeared. Yu Yan Ying looked towards the door and shouted loudly, "Where are the bodyguards! Didn't you hear what I said?" Still, no one came.
Yu Yan Ying frowned at the Pei Family butler and her face darkened completely. "How can you be a butler? You don't even have a bodyguard!"
At this moment, the audience in the live stream also noticed something was off.
"Yeah... In such a large manor, how can there be no bodyguards?"
"When the production team came in from outside, I didn't see any bodyguards either; I was going to ask!"
"This is too strange..."
"It must be your negligence! You get out of here today!" Yu Yan Ying angrily scolded the butler.
The Pei Family butler got up from the ground with an ugly expression. The production team had professional medical staff and facilities available. When the medical staff approached to help Fu Xiaobao, they were met with Yu Yan Ying's furious reprimand: "Get away! Don't touch my son with your dirty hands; he needs to go to a big hospital!"
"Woo woo woo, my heart aches for Sakura! Watching Xiao Bao get hurt must be unbearable for her!"
"Wait... The production team's medical staff are professionals; bandaging the wound first is better than letting the child bleed there, right?"
"How are they dirty hands? Is Yu Yan Ying out of her mind?"
"You’re the one who’s crazy; your whole family is crazy! Xiao Bao is so precious; how could ordinary medical staff touch him?"
Yu Yan Ying was thoroughly enraged when she saw that the bodyguards had not arrived.
"Alright, alright, alright! You all get out of here! If you don't leave, I'll call the police and report you for trespassing!"
Saying this, Yu Yan Ying took out her phone to call the police.
Fu Huaichuan's expression changed dramatically as he reached out to grab Yu Yan Ying's hand.
At that moment, a voice filled with age and authority rang out:
"Who are you going to report for trespassing?"
Old Master Pei walked in from outside.
Beside him was a snow-white Samoyed.
The Samoyed quickly ran over to me and Pei Xiaoyi.
" Qiuqiu, you're covered in mud! Where have you been?"
Pei Xiaoyi pushed the Samoyed away with a look of disgust, but the Samoyed lunged back, licking Pei Xiaoyi's face.
In the comments, someone recognized Old Master Pei:
"It's Old Master Pei!”
Yu Yan Ying, not recognizing this sudden visitor, frowned and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing in my house? And why did you bring a dog?"
"What??? Why doesn't Yingying recognize her own father-in-law?"
"Ah? What's going on?"
The comments were stunned.
Pei Xiaoyi walked up to Old Master Pei and called out, "Grandpa."
The comments fell silent instantly.
Yu Yan Ying was taken aback for a moment before sneering, "Do you all think this place is your home? It's not enough that you came here yourselves; are you planning to invite all your relatives too?!"
The surrounding staff finally realized something was off.
None of them dared to speak up.
Fu Huaichuan and the Pei Family's butler were frozen in place upon seeing Old Master Pei.
Seeing the bodyguards following Old Master Pei, Yu Yan Ying said, "I've been calling you for ages, and you didn't show up! Do you believe I won't fire you right now? Get these four people and this dog out of here!"
"Oh? You want to kick me out? Where do you get your confidence from?"
Old Master Pei slowly spoke, his gaze fixed on Yu Yan Ying, a light smile on his face filled with mockery.
After receiving a text from Pei Xiaoyi, he hurried back.
He didn't look at Yu Yan Ying, but instead turned to the butler beside him.
"Old Fu, you've been with me for fifteen years, right?"
The butler of the Pei Family didn't dare to say a word and hurriedly lowered his head.
"In these fifteen years, I have never treated you poorly. You take things from the Pei Family and often bring your grandson here; I've always turned a blind eye to it.
"What's this? Your courage is getting bigger, starting to bully my son and daughter-in-law?
"While I'm not home, you pull this stunt, thinking the Pei Family is under your control?"
"Old Fu..."
Yu Yan Ying suddenly looked at the Pei Family's butler.
She hadn't paid him much attention before, but now that she looked closely, she found that the butler bore some resemblance to Fu Huaichuan!
"Sir, I was wrong; it was my mistake!"
Butler Fu hadn't expected Old Master Pei to return suddenly, nor did he anticipate that the cold man standing not far away would be the heir of the Pei Family...
Butler Fu had seen Pei Yu when he was a child, but later on, when Pei Yu was ten, he went abroad and grew up there. Even when he returned to China, he rarely came to the old Pei Family residence, so Butler Fu didn't know what Pei Yu looked like as an adult.
At that time, Fu Huaichuan mentioned someone named Pei Yu; he was so caught off guard that he couldn't react immediately.
Hearing the butler's address, Yu Yan Ying's face turned pale instantly.
What... else was there for her to understand!
The viewers in the live stream also finally reacted.
"What the hell! Did I just hear that right? Old Master Pei said Qiao Yuan and Pei Yu are his son and daughter-in-law!"
"No way! Does that mean Pei Yu is actually the true power holder of the Pei Family?!"
"Fu Huaichuan's identity is fake!!! Damn it, a Best Actor actually impersonated Pei Yu!"
"It's over; it's over! I cursed Pei Yu thinking he was just pretending..."
"If Pei Yu's identity is fake, then what about Yu Yan Ying's...?"
"Our Yingying isn't that kind of person!"
"Old Fu, pay up."
Old Master Pei spoke calmly.
Pei Xiaoyi chimed in from the side: "The vase is five hundred million, and the sofa is one hundred twenty million."
Butler Fu's face instantly changed.
Old Master Pei waved his hand, and an assistant handed over a document.
"And these are the items you've taken from the Pei Family over the years; all the evidence is here: five hundred eighty million.
"In total, that's one point two billion.
"Old Fu, will your family be paying by card or cash?"
1.2 billion.
The three words made Butler Fu's face turn as white as a sheet. His lips trembled, and he tried to speak several times but couldn't make a sound. His body went limp, and he collapsed directly onto the ground.
Yu Yan Ying was also frightened pale by this sudden turn of events.
"If you don't pay it back, then you will end up spending your life in prison."
Butler Fu crawled and rolled towards Fu Huaichuan, saying, "Son, son, I did all this for you!"
Having his identity exposed in public, Fu Huaichuan's face was completely lost.
He knew that his career was over.
Not only was it over, but he also had to bear a debt of 1.2 billion! Once that money was given away, his entire life would have been in vain; his future life...
Fu Huaichuan didn't dare to think about it and cast a pleading look towards Yu Yan Ying.
"Yingying, your Qiao Family has money; this 1.2 billion shouldn't be a big deal for your Qiao Family, right?"
Old Master Pei asked, "Qiao Family? Qiao Group?"
Fu Huaichuan seemed to see hope and coldly smiled at Old Master Pei: "Your Pei Family is wealthy, but our Yingying's Qiao Family is not lacking either!"
As soon as he finished speaking, my phone rang.
It was Qiao Heng calling.
"Sis, why did you stop my card!"
I didn't answer him but turned the camera towards Yu Yan Ying: "Isn't your sister right here?"
Qiao Heng was taken aback when he saw Yu Yan Ying and then said, "Sis, what are you joking about? She's my girlfriend's sister, not my real sister."
I couldn't be bothered with Qiao Heng and directly hung up the video call.
[Oh my god, Yu Yan Ying's identity is also fake! Qiao Yuan is real!]
[I’m stunned... What about those who called Qiao Yuan a drama queen before!]
[I didn’t insult her; I just felt something was off...]
Fu Huaichuan was stunned for a moment before becoming furious and kicked at Yu Yan Ying!
"You bitch, how could you deceive me!"
Yu Yan Ying's face turned pale from the pain; once she caught her breath, she angrily shouted at Fu Huaichuan: "Aren't you deceiving me too! If you hadn't hinted to me that you were the prince of the Pei Family, do you think I would be with you?!"
"Bitch, how can you say that? If you hadn't claimed that Qiao Heng is your brother, do you think I would have looked at you? What status do you have compared to me?"
"My sister is Qiao Heng's girlfriend; how could he not be my brother!"
Fu Xiaobao cried even harder because of the dog-eat-dog situation between Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying!
Fu Huaichuan directly kicked him in the face: "Just like your mother! Who told you to touch that vase!"
Fu Xiaobao was still young; with such a sudden kick from Fu Huaichuan, he was knocked unconscious.
Old Master Pei waved his hand and had his assistant call the police.
Yu Yan Ying didn't have time to check on Fu Xiaobao's condition; she only knew that with this incident, her career was doomed. She crawled to my feet, tugging at my pant leg, "Qiao Yuan, you are Qiao Heng's sister, so we are family too. You can't be so heartless to me. Aren't you afraid that my sister will get angry and break up with Qiao Heng when she finds out?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Heng's call came in again. I answered it, and Qiao Heng's angry voice came through the phone: "Sister, I just found out what happened! I went to the bathroom at that time, and Yu Yanqing answered my phone without permission. I've already broken up with Yu Yanqing!"
Yu Yan Ying was close enough to hear the conversation on the phone. "Sorry, but we are not family."
I pulled my pant leg out of Yu Yan Ying's grasp.
The police arrived quickly, and Yu Yan Ying, Fu Huaichuan, and Fu Huaichuan's father were all taken away. Fu Xiaobao was also taken to the hospital by an ambulance.
After all, Fu Huaichuan had achieved the position of Best Actor and still had some financial resources. Yu Yan Ying also had some money. Now they both took out their funds to compensate.
But the matter didn't end there. When they previously teamed up online to slander me for clout, I had already started digging up dirt on Fu Huaichuan and Yu Yan Ying. It turned out to be quite interesting once I looked into it.
Before debuting, Fu Huaichuan had actually been involved in prostitution and had been kept by several wealthy women, ruining many families. As for Yu Yan Ying, she didn't have any dirt before her debut, but after entering the industry, she evaded taxes and slept with people she shouldn't have.
Once this information came out, the two became like rats crossing the street, facing penalties that left them bankrupt. The Qiao family and the Pei family also joined forces to take them to court for their slander against me and for trespassing.
In addition, those netizens who had insulted me were also tracked down one by one by Pei Yu. He said, "We have plenty of time to sue them all."
After such an incident, those collaborators who had previously wanted to terminate contracts with me all came back seeking reconciliation. I ignored them all and decided to retire from the industry and return to my family.
On the day my retirement news was announced, a man certified as the president of Pei Group posted a group photo.
