Chapter 172 It’s scary to think about it carefully
She couldn't help but wonder if the outcome would have been different if she had told the truth and tried her best to please Cheng Ai.
No one could answer her, after all, there's no going back in life, and even if she knew, she wouldn't be able to go back to the beginning.
The camera panned back to the studio, where Anmi looked quite shocked. Although the show was known for its straightforwardness, she hadn't expected Cheng Ai to be so outspoken.
Isn't she afraid of being maliciously edited and smeared when she talks about Song Yifei publicly?
The director's urging voice came through her earphones. Anmi calmed herself down and asked with a light laugh, "The new drama 'A Beauty's Smile' starring Ye Yingdi has wrapped up filming. You were on set, could you tell us the broadcast time?"
Cheng Ai frowned and shook her head, then said in a cool tone, "Sorry, I don't know."
Whether a drama that will never be released is finished or not makes no difference. However, it's best to avoid ambiguity and vague statements to prevent netizens from making wild speculations.
Anmi smiled gently and tentatively asked, "How's Night Movie Emperor's salary? Did it exceed 100 million?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Ai looked shocked, then a strong desire appeared in her eyes, "Being an actor is so lucrative? It seems I should change my strategy and not always stick to recording variety shows."
[Haha, the host is stunned, Xiao Ai Ai is so funny.]
Don't embarrass yourself by showing your acting skills, which are limited to wide-eyed stares and exaggerated crying.
Anmi's eyelids twitched wildly, but she tried her best to remain calm. "Your talismans are very powerful. Qi Xingyue was fired by the company. Is it because of you?"
"No." Cheng Ai raised the microphone, her tone flat and indifferent.
When news reports about Qi Xingyue, she was unable to use her spiritual power, and Ye Jingke was also unable to draw talismans. Therefore, the decision was made by the senior management of Yue Dong Entertainment and had nothing to do with anyone else.
“As far as I know, Xiao Ai, you’re the type to hold a grudge. Why the sudden change in your attitude this time, giving Qi Xingyue a break?” Anmi asked gradually.
"You know me very well?" Cheng Ai gazed at her with a leisurely air.
“A little bit.” Anmi gestured with her little finger. “Your followers have skyrocketed recently, and you’re a regular on Weibo’s trending topics list. It’s hard for me not to follow you.”
"Really?" Cheng Ai picked up a strand of hair and twirled it between her fingers, playing with it casually. "Then turn off your phone and enjoy life."
"Huh?" Anmi couldn't keep up with her train of thought and blinked blankly.
Cheng Ai sighed helplessly, let go of his hand, leaned forward slightly, and said seriously, "Instead of spending all day playing games on electronic devices and watching mindless gossip videos, you might as well make delicious food, exercise, and research skin care secrets."
Anmi thought it made sense and nodded in agreement.
[Giggle, giggle, I'm laughing so hard I'm practically honking like a goose! I seriously suspect that Xiao Ai'ai is just being silly because she doesn't want to answer the host's questions.]
[Playing games and gossiping, isn't that me?]
[Look at the host's adoring expression; he's clearly fallen into Queen Ai's trap.]
[It's a shame Ai Bao'er isn't in sales; her brainwashing skills are top-notch!]
[Eating delicious food makes you fat, exercising every day is tiring, and there are skincare products to maintain your skin. Cheng Ai's rambling writing is really good.]
[Get out of here, I've seen you several times already, why do you always argue for no reason?]
Cheng Ai smiled slyly and spoke even more enthusiastically, "If all else fails, you can read books, enjoy tea, appreciate music, plant flowers, paint, in short, anything that can improve your own qualities is fine."
[No mention of pet ownership? Thumbs down!]
I can guarantee that Xiao Ai Ai definitely hasn't done any of the things she mentioned!
Anmi's eyes were glazed over, her mind already conjuring up images of herself reading a book while watering flowers.
The director roared furiously in her earpiece, startling her. She quickly regained her composure and continued following the procedure methodically.
After Cheng Ai answered the five questions evasively, the program moved on to its final segment, where netizens enthusiastically came to ask questions.
Anmi smiled slightly, revealing her standard eight teeth. "Xiao Ai, you still need to answer four questions. The first two will be randomly selected from the comments, and the last two will be live calls, directly interacting with the fans. Please be prepared."
Cheng Ai smiled broadly, indicating that she understood.
The next instant, the electronic screen next to the two people suddenly lit up, and the live broadcast room showed the scene in real time.
The barrage of comments exploded instantly, with all sorts of questions coming in one after another, making it dizzying.
Following the director's instructions, the staff displayed two questions in the blank area in the center of the electronic screen:
[Did the unexpected addition of Nightfall Emperor to "Dare to Be Here" happen because of you?]
Where was the third part of "Dare to Be Here" filmed? Who are the guests?
Cheng Ai sighed inwardly at how sharp the eyes of this generation of netizens were, as they were able to accurately grasp Ye Ye's thoughts.
She pursed her lips, cleared her throat, and replied seriously, "I don't know why either. After all, I'm not a mind reader like you, and I can't know every little detail."
[What a trivial question my brother is asking, worrying about the two newly signed artists getting into trouble?]
[Roundworm: Don't call me, I'm not taking the blame for this!]
[Rumor has it that everything that happened inside the castle is true.]
[It was truly bizarre; on the night of the finale, a massive fire raged across half the sky, yet the surrounding forest remained completely unscathed, not even a single blade of grass was damaged.]
[The director of "Dare to Be" has been changed from Gong Qian to Zhao Nan. Cheng Baoni has mysteriously disappeared, and Wu Xu dies in a car crash. It's chilling to think about!]
[Yu Duo is dead too. Could there be something fishy going on at Qingsong Mountain?]
Remember those realistic mushrooms on Sister Ai's and Night Emperor's heads? They looked like they were rooted in place and couldn't be pulled off!
"Mommy, I'm scared, hug me!"
Amidst the flurry of speculations from netizens, Cheng Ai frowned and pondered for a long time before muttering, "How strange, this kind of question should be asked of Director Zhao, why are they asking me?"
Although Anmi intended to make things difficult, she didn't go too far. The reason was simple: she couldn't win the argument and was afraid of being controlled by the talisman. "It's okay, if you don't want to answer, just refuse. Our program is very humane."
Cheng Ai smiled, her expression innocent and carefree, revealing no trace of guile. "Thank you for understanding."
Ugh, this is ridiculous. Has she ever given a direct answer to any questions? If she doesn't want to be interviewed, she should go home and give others the opportunity to appear in public.
[It's you again, upstairs! Shut the hell up, okay? You hate Sister Ai but you've been watching for so long, are you sick?]
Some questions just can't be answered casually. Whether it's an artist recording a variety show, filming a movie, or doing a commercial performance, they all have to sign a confidentiality agreement. To spout nonsense without understanding common sense is simply shameless!
The director in the control room almost fainted from anger. What's wrong with Anmi? The movie star Ye Yingdi is showing all sorts of favoritism towards Cheng Ai, and their relationship is obviously very close, yet she doesn't even mention it?
There's also the recording location and guests for the third segment of "Dare to Be Here." Even if you can't get all the details out of her, you can still seduce her. Not only did she not insist, but she even offered herself an out. She's truly hopeless.
The director clasped his hands together and prayed silently, hoping that the two phone calls that were about to start would be helpful and that they wouldn't ask any pointless questions.
