Chapter 988: Cheated On
Xia Qingwei suddenly didn’t know what to say.
She just blurted it out without thinking just now. Who’d have known that…
Wang Juhuai went with the flow, and his hand moved from her wrist to her palm. He held on to her hand. “I don’t care, I’ll take it that you’ve agreed.”
Xia Qingwei’s face was very flushed. However, she didn’t say anything ultimately and stayed silent, letting Wang Juhuai hold her hand.
Wang Juhuai was so overwhelmed by emotions that his heart was almost about to jump out. He suddenly really felt like he wanted to jump around in joy like a young man.
Ultimately, both of them chose a car in another Bentley shop. It was a car that suited Wang Juhuai’s steady vibe.

Xia Qingyang and Lu Qi returned home. Lu Qiyuan looked at them and asked Lu Qi, “How did the recording for The Performer go?”
“It went pretty well. Don’t judge it based on the bad comments about The Performer online. In reality, the live set was pretty lit. The audience’s reviews were all not bad. Moreover, even though Gao Zishan and the others had left, the production team invited another batch of young actors who are even more popular. I believe that it would be very popular amongst the young people in the audience,” Lu Qi said.
Lu Qiyuan nodded. The Lu Corporation became the main sponsor for The Performer; hence, naturally, it would be green-lit by Lu Qiyuan and he could squeeze Lu Qi into the show.
Also, to express their sincerity, they even scheduled for Lu Qi to appear on the premiere.
“I read the news on the internet. Lu Man has participated in the recording for Classic X Files, and it’s also scheduled to air on the night of the fifth day of the New Year. It clearly wants to compete against The Performer. You definitely have to win against Lu Qiyuan. Don’t let my money go to waste,” Lu Qiyuan said.
As the Lu Corporation was the main sponsor, Lu Qi finally started to enjoy the bliss and comfort of bringing money into the crew.
Lu Qi said confidently, “I can’t really speak for how Classic X Files’s recording went, but the episode I recorded for The Performer would definitely have high ratings. Even if it’s against Classic X Files, they might not even be able to beat us.”
Lu Qiyuan nodded. “As long as you can win, that would be good. Then I wouldn’t have to see Lu Man acting so obnoxious.”
Xia Qingyang immediately said, “Speaking of Lu Man, guess who I met today?”
“You met Lu Man?” Lu Qiyuan asked, his brows raised.
“No, I met Xia Qingwei,” Xia Qingyang said. “She has gotten back together with her first love. The two of them were shamelessly flirting with each other out in public.”
Lu Qiyuan heard that and immediately felt uncomfortable.
“Haha!” Lu Qiyuan laughed coldly. “How good of a man could she find? She is already so old, so embarrassing!”
Who knew that Xia Qingwei would actually get together with another man?!
Even after being divorced from her for so many years, Lu Qiyuan had never thought of letting Xia Qingwei get together with anyone else.
After all, she was such a frail and sickly woman, who would want her?!
Moreover, no matter what, Xia Qingwei was once his wife too.
Even though they were divorced now, when she got together with someone else, Lu Qiyuan still felt a little like he was getting betrayed and being cheated on.

On the third day of the New Year, as scheduled, *Classic X Files’*s official Weibo started their second round of publicity for the third episode of their show that was to air on the night of the fifth day of the New Year.
Right now, the popularity of the Spring Festival Gala of various stations had more or less dissipated already.
Some of the classic programs for the Spring Festival Gala by various stations, especially those classic language-related programs, were also almost done airing on the internet.
The netizens’ attention and excitement started to fade, and they started to pay attention to other news.
Classic X Files chose this time to begin their second round of publicity.
Classic X Files’ official Weibo: “Today, since our boss is on holiday, I’ll be here to leak out some information about who our secret guests are.”
“Guest L: Someone who makes young girls’ heart flutter and who can also be your boyfriend. Guest S: A famous performance artiste who won Best Female Actress three times from different award ceremonies. Before now, she had never participated in any variety show. She has a really strong presence.”
