Chapter 101: Who Do You Like the Most
"Mo'er, who do you think you like the most?"
When they had returned to their room, Shi Mo placed her on the bed and looked down at her.
Fang Mo'er tried to get up, but he stopped her.
"Say it!"
If she did not speak, he would not let her go.
Fang Mo'er blinked her eyes. Her blurry eyes finally focused somewhat as she saw the perfect face of the man in front of her more clearly.
She was instantly mesmerized by his face.
Shi Mo had not gotten a reply from her yet, but he was getting very annoyed by her gaze.
Suddenly, Fang Mo'er reached out and touched the man's cheek. Her eyes were sparkling as she said, "You're so beautiful. I want to marry you."
Shi Mo shook his head. She was so drunk that she had even said the opposite of what she had wanted to say.
However, this sentence still made Shi Mo happy.
He stared at her. "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Fang Mo'er reached her hand out to caress the man's face. However, she was still not satisfied, so she wrapped her arm around his neck and glared at him. "Beauty, let me kiss you."
She pulled him very close and their breaths intertwined.
Their lips were so close that they were almost touching.
Shi Mo was shaken by the sudden movement and his dark eyes deepened.
He corrected her, "I shouldn't be called a beauty."
"Then, what should I call you?"
"Call me husband."
While Fang Mo'er was still unable to think straight, Shi Mo could not help but kiss her lips.
His kisses alternated between being light and heavy. He would move gently at one moment and then suddenly became more intense. Fang Mo'er's remaining ability to think completely disappeared.

Unknowingly, the two of them had already rolled onto the bed.
"Mo'er." The man called her name in a low and husky voice.
The temperature in the room had already risen, but Shi Mo still retained a trace of rationality. He held her in his arms to calm down the restlessness in his body. He said to her, "You should drink some hangover soup later! Otherwise, you'll feel uncomfortable."
Fang Mo'er felt extremely uncomfortable right now. She did not know if it was because she had been drinking or because the kiss just now had made her even more frustrated.
She moved around in his arms, refusing to settle down.
The last bit of rationality in his body was worn away by her.
"It's hot!" Fang Mo'er tugged at the clothes on her body.
"Mo'er!"
Very quickly, Shi Mo realized that Fang Mo'er's shoulders were now half exposed. She was leaning into his arms like a kitten.
It was as if she was teasingly scratching his heart with her claws.
Shi Mo's mouth went dry.
He suddenly turned over and laid on top of her, as he took off her clothes.
Soon, Fang Mo'er was naked beneath him.
He lowered his head and kissed her lips. When she instinctively moaned, he kissed her all the way down her neck.
Both of them were breathing heavily.
"Mo'er, do you want it?" The man's voice was bewitching.
As he said this, he grabbed her hand and brought it to his belt buckle.
Fang Mo'er looked at him silently.
When she heard the man's bewitching voice command her, "Undo it."
Following his command, Fang Mo'er did as he said.
She unbuckled his belt and looked at him obediently.
"Lie down properly," he ordered again.
Fang Mo'er lay on the bed without moving.
"Spread your legs."
She was surprisingly obedient as she did whatever he asked her to.
Shi Mo quickly pressed his knees between her legs.
Their lower bodies were pressed together.
"It's so hot," she said.
"It'll be fine once you get used to it," Shi Mo said as he suddenly stretched out his hand and reached down.
He realized that she was already wet.
Even though Fang Mo'er was completely enamored with him, she still had a confused and dazed expression on her face.
This made Shi Mo want to push her further and make her expression even more colorful.
Within the next second, she suddenly stopped breathing as she felt a huge object pushing its way into her body.
She stretched her hand out to push him away.
However, the man was like a rock, she could not push him away, no matter how hard she tried.
Fang Mo'er's eyes filled with tears. Due to the pain, she bit down on his shoulder.
Shi Mo felt the pain. He had not expected her to suddenly attack him.
Helplessly, ee comforted her, "Mo'er, the pain will go away in a while."
"Liar," the woman complained accusingly.
However, her voice very quickly became hoarse and low.
Her gentle moans echoed in the room.
Just as she was about to be overwhelmed by lust, he suddenly stopped and looked at her with his burning eyes.
"Mo'er, tell me, who do you like the most?"
Fang Mo'er bit her lip and whispered, "Is it you?"
"Mo'er!" Shi Mo would not allow her to give an ambiguous answer and moved again in a punishing manner.
Fang Mo'er arched her back and subconsciously pandered to him.
"Who is it?" Shi Mo continued to coax her.
Fang Mo'er's brain was already a mess. How could she know what answer it was that he wanted?
Chapter 102: Punishment
"It's the person in the book." Fang Mo'er said aggrievedly.
Shi Mo was still not satisfied with this answer.
"What about in reality?"
Fang Mo'er shook her head. Other than Shi Mo from the book, in reality, she had never liked anyone else.
Finally, Fang Mo'er sobered up for a while and replied, "No."
This reply caused Shi Mo's expression to change.
He lowered his voice and said, "Mo'er, I will make you fall in love with me."
As long as there was no one else in the answer.
He would take the time to slowly pry open her heart.
Once he had said that, he no longer restrained himself.
Fang Mo'er felt like a delicate flower that was trembling in the wind, rising and falling with the wind.
The next day.
When Fang Mo'er woke up, she had a splitting headache and her body felt like it was falling apart.
There was a heavy arm wrapped around her waist.
Subconsciously, she turned her head and saw Shi Mo's profile as she slept peacefully.
Fang Mo'er instantly understood what had happened.
She remembered that she had drunk more than a few glasses last night, and everything that happened after that had faded away.
Her mind was filled with images of Shi Mo and her body on the bed.
He seemed to have asked her some questions, but whenever he was not satisfied with her answers, he had punished her by being more forceful.
However, Fang Mo'er could not remember the questions anymore. All she had was a vague memory.
When Fang Mo'er recollected this, her face suddenly darkened. She was so angry that she slapped Shi Mo's chest. "You bullied me."
Ads by Pubfuture
When Shi Mo woke up, he saw that Fang Mo'er's face was filled with unhappiness.
She seemed to remember how badly behaved Shi Mo had been last night.
She snorted and got out of bed. She wrapped her clothes around her to cover the marks on her body.
She glared at him fiercely, like a cat with bristling fur.
He had gone too far. Not only had he done such a thing, but he had even punished her.
The bruises on her body indicated how hard the other party had handled her.
Shi Mo pursed his lips and spread his hands to show his innocence. "How can it be called bullying when couples do such things?"
Fang Mo'er snorted. "But why did you treat me so roughly?"
She felt like there wasn't a single part of her body that was intact anymore.
She felt like she was burning everywhere.
Shi Mo's eyes darkened and he said in a low voice, "Sorry, I couldn't hold it in."
It was Fang Mo'er's answer that had kept driving him crazy.
No matter how hard he had tried to persuade her, she had refused to say that she liked him.
For a moment, he had not been able to control himself and had been a little rougher with her.
Seeing that he had admitted it, Fang Mo'er frowned, her eyes filled with grievance. She moved slowly and pitifully into the bathroom.
A flash of guilt flashed across Shi Mo's eyes, and he hurriedly stepped forward to say, "I'll help you."
In the bathroom, Fang Mo'er was filling the bathtub with hot water, as she responded softly.
Shi Mo walked in and finished filling the hot water before placing her in the tub.
Fang Mo'er lay in the warm water and hummed in comfort.
Shi Mo's mouth went dry again when he saw her moving appearance.
He reached out and caressed her skin. "I'm sorry!"
Fang Mo'er did not open her eyes. "Then, I'll have to punish you by making you scrub my back."
She turned her back.
Shi Mo did as he was told and kept his movements gentle as he served her.
However, in the mist, Shi Mo started to feel uncomfortable again.
Seeing that he was not moving, Fang Mo'er turned around and saw him staring at her intensely.
She looked at him in disbelief. "I'm already in this condition, yet you're still thinking about that?"
She chased Shi Mo out and closed the bathroom door.
She smiled triumphantly.
If he dared to bully her, she would make sure to stand up to him and not allow him to devour her.
Shi Mo was outside the bathroom when he heard her groan comfortably from inside.
He walked around in frustration.
In the end, all he could do was hold it in.
Fang Mo'er lingered inside for a long time before she changed her clothes and came out.
Now that she had finished filming, Fang Mo'er decided to take the day off to rest.
As Shi Mo'er was having dinner with her, he suddenly asked, "Which book do you like to read the most?"
He recalled what Fang Mo'er had said last night and she had said that she liked the character in the book the most.
Shi Mo wanted to know who that person was.
Without thinking, Fang Mo'er subconsciously replied, "It's called 'You Are as Deep as the Sea'."
As soon as she finished speaking, she reacted and said, "However, this book probably doesn't exist in this world."
Shi Mo frowned and asked, "Why?"
"This book is in my mind, it hasn't been published in this world," said Fang Mo'er.
Shi Mo was a little surprised. He had wanted to see what kind of man Fang Mo'er liked.
He had not expected that he would not be able to read this book at all.
After eating, Shi Mo was called away after receiving a phone call from the company.
Fang Mo'er had turned on her phone and realized that someone had been '@- ing' her in the group chat of "Manager Shen's Children".
Lang Qi: "Veiled Queen, your ad is so good!"
There was a link in it.
The title was "Chanel Perfume's latest ad: Who Is She?"
Chapter 103: The Advertisement Was Very Popular
The video had been reposted more than 10,000 times, and the comments section was also very popular.
In the video, a woman wearing a veil appeared at the racetrack and won first place.
Such a woman seen coming and going in a hurry left an extremely strong visual impact.
When she appeared, all the men in the race were reduced to being her foil.
The way she carried herself was even nobler than the aristocracy, and her posture was more agile and graceful than a leopard.
However, her identity was like a fog.
Every time she made an appearance, she would attract the attention of others. Yet every hasty departure would leave people feeling disappointed and lost.
The scene changed to a banquet scene. At first, the prince looked dispirited, and although the many women who were present fought for his attention, they were unable to catch his eye.
It was not until the veiled woman arrived like a fairy in a breeze, that the prince's eyes lit up and he chased after her. However, every step the veiled woman took allowed her to remain just a step ahead of the prince. She stood on a tall building, as he looked up at her from downstairs.
By the time he made it upstairs, she had already turned into the corridor.
When the Prince finally found the room that the veiled woman had gone into, he found it empty. The woman had already arrived on the street outside the window, leaving behind only a glance and a distant back view.
"Who is she?" That was the only line in the advertisement, followed by a photo of the Chanel perfume "She".
The comments section exploded. "This is so beautiful!"
"This is the most attractive woman I have ever seen."
"It's such an attractive advertisement. Women would surely want to buy the perfume after seeing this ad."
"I want a bottle of this perfume too. I want to be as attractive as the Veiled Queen."
Fang Mo'er realized that her Veiled Queen Weibo account had quickly gained a large number of followers.
Ads by Pubfuture
Many people were curious about the true identity of the Veiled Queen.
The popularity of the Veiled Queen's song was once again on fire.
Listening to such a beautiful voice and watching the live music video of the Veiled Queen, was definitely a sight to behold.
At the same time.
In the shopping mall, the Veiled Queen's advertisement was almost everywhere.
Many people slowed down as they passed by the advertisement. Everyone looked up at the dazzling woman in the advertisement.
The men were entranced while the women looked envious.
Mu Chen brought Bai Rong to the Mu residence.
They overheard the Mu family's only eldest daughter, Mu Lan, talking to Mu Ye.
Mu Ye asked, "Why did you suddenly change your perfume?"
Mu Lan replied, "You don't understand. This perfume is the most fashionable one right now. I even bought a few bottles and I plan to give them to my best friends."
Mu Ye did not comment. Mu Lan quickly picked up her phone and showed it to him. "Ye, you'll know when you see this! This advertisement is all over the shopping malls outside now."
Bai Rong and Mu Chen smiled as they walked over.
Bai Rong said fawningly, "What is that smell that is so fragrant?"
Putting on a gentle appearance, she walked over to Mu Lan, to try and build a better relationship with her.
At this moment, Mu Ye was watching an advertisement.
Initially, he had watched it without expression, but then he suddenly became visibly stunned.
Holding the video in his hand, he watched it twice.
"Brother, why are you in a daze?" Mu Lan reached out for her phone.
She thought that Mu Ye was lost in his thoughts, but she did not know that the advertisement had been played twice.
Ads by Pubfuture
Only then did Mu Ye realize that Mu Chen and Bai Rong were standing in front of him.
Mu Lan said to Bai Rong, "Miss Bai, if you like it, I'll give you a bottle. This is Chanel's newest perfume."
Bai Rong took the perfume and her expression immediately became unnatural.
Wasn't this the perfume that Fang Mo'er endorsed?
Originally, she had been determined to become the spokesperson for this perfume, but Fang Mo'er had beaten her to the door.
"Thank you, Sister Mulan."
"There's no need to be so polite. By the way, I see you guys are here to visit Grandpa. He's doing morning exercises in the backyard."
The Old Master was the only one in the Mu family who was quite traditional and insisted on Mu Chen acknowledging his ancestors.
Mu Ye suddenly stood up. "I still have something to do. You guys can accompany the Old Master and have a good chat."
As Mu Ye walked out, his mind was still thinking about the figure in the advertisement.
He took his phone and made a call. "I need to check the whereabouts of a person."
In the afternoon, Fang Mo'er went to the recording studio as the Veiled Queen.
She was going to record the movie's theme song.
Director Wang had originally planned for Fang Mo'er to sing the theme song herself. After all, it was Fang Mo'er's own arrangement and she was the female lead in the movie, so it was most suitable for her to sing it.
However, Fang Mo'er had told Director Wang that the Veiled Queen was more popular now.
Allowing her to sing the song would increase the movie's popularity.
When Director Wang heard that Fang Mo'er could invite the Veiled Queen, he immediately agreed.
Hence, in the afternoon, Fang Mo'er wore a veil and went to the recording studio.
After the theme song with the same name, "Love Mist" had been recorded, Fang Mo'er left the recording studio.
Xiao Tian ran over and said, "Sister, there are many fans outside."
Fang Mo'er walked to the window and saw a few fanatical fans at the entrance of the building.
Most of the fans were male.
Chapter 104: Was a Free Ride
Fang Mo'er was surprised, "This is too much."
There were so many people, at least a thousand of them.
Xiao Tian smiled, "Sister, are you unaware of the charm of your advertisement? All my friends around me are rushing to buy the perfume that you're endorsing. The moment this product was released, it was sold out in some areas, due to the advertisement."
Fang Mo'er looked up and said, "I suddenly feel that my endorsement fee is too low."
With such explosive sales, Chuck was probably going crazy with joy right now.
"But Sister, there are too many people and not enough security guards here. Let's try to leave secretly."
Xiao Tian was worried that the fanatical fans would stir up a commotion and that the security guards would not be able to protect Fang Mo'er.
Fang Mo'er nodded.
The two of them arrived at the parking lot.
However, there were already fans waiting there.
A few male fans immediately surrounded the Veiled Queen the moment they saw her appear.
"Veiled Queen, can you give me an autograph?"
"I like you so much!"
At first, Fang Mo'er was still able to smile and greet the crowd.
However, more and more people started coming over.
Fang Mo'er saw the fans running over one after another and could not take it anymore. She quickly let Xiao Tian back into the building.
"Veiled Queen, I love you!"
Ads by Pubfuture
"Veiled Goddess!"
Outside, the fans were shouting enthusiastically.
Fang Mo'er, on the other hand, was a little flustered. She did not know who had tugged at her dress earlier, causing it to almost tear.
Suddenly, a figure could be seen walking towards her.
Mu Ye saw the Veiled Queen looking flustered and frowned at the commotion outside.
He asked his assistant, "What's going on?"
His assistant replied, "These fans are here to see the Veiled Queen."
Xiao Tian said apologetically, "Sir, the parking lot is probably congested."
It was not known who had spread the news that the Veiled Queen was coming to this building to record a song.
Neither Fang Mo'er nor Xiao Tian had expected the situation to turn out like this.
Mu Ye's gaze swept across the Veiled Queen's face. He turned to his assistant and said, "It looks like we can only leave through the back door. Inform the driver to standby at the back door."
When Fang Mo'er heard that there was a back door, she quickly exchanged glances with Xiao Tian.
The two of them subconsciously followed behind Mu Ye.
"That's right, sister. We can leave through the back door."
At the back door, a car was already parked there.
Mu Ye got into the car.
Xiao Tian said, "Mr. Mu, could you help us take her out?"
Xiao Tian was worried that the fans outside would discover this place and the Veiled Queen would not be able to leave even if she wanted to. Thus, she had quickly spoken up.
Mu Ye replied, "It's not on the way."
"Just send us outside. We'll casually get out there," Xiao Tian quickly tried to persuade him. "We won't take up any of your precious time."

"Come in then," Mu Ye said lightly.
Fang Mo'er had had a run-in with Mu Ye before, but seeing that he did not seem to care about it at all, she let out a sigh of relief.
The two of them quickly got into the car and the chauffeur immediately drove off.
The car drove out of the building and the chauffeur said, "Sir, we're going to be very late for the appointment."
Hearing that, Fang Mo'er did not want to trouble Mu Ye by stopping the car.
Fortunately, the car soon stopped at a restaurant.
Fang Mo'er and Xiao Tian took the opportunity to get out of the car and thanked Mu Ye profusely, "Thank you so much for today, Mr. Mu!"
"Miss Veil." Chuck's voice suddenly rang out from not too far away.
Fang Mo'er looked up and saw Chuck walking over with a beaming face, "I was just looking for an opportunity to treat you to a meal. The sales of the perfume are really booming these days."
Chuck had originally invited Mu Ye to have a meal together.
He had not expected to see the Veiled Queen who had just gotten out of the car with him. When he found out that the Veiled Queen had escaped by getting a lift from him, Chuck smiled and said, "You're too popular now. By the way, Miss Veiled, would you like to have a meal with me?"
"I don't want to disturb your discussion." Fang Mo'er knew that Mu Ye would not like her being near him.
Although he had given her a lift, that did not mean that he would not continue to dislike her.
"Do as you wish," Mr. Mu Ye said.
Chuck quickly extended an invitation to Fang Mo'er.
It was difficult to reject such a kind offer. Since Fang Mo'er had a business relationship with Chuck, she could not reject him at the moment, and could only follow his lead.
At the wine table, Chuck smiled and said, "Miss Veiled, our endorsement contract was originally only signed for one year, but now we want to renew it for another three years. What do you think?"
Fang Mo'er nodded. "Just discuss it with my manager. Naturally, I won't object."
"Come, come, Miss Veiled, let me make a toast to you." Chuck quickly smiled.
Fang Mo'er had a low tolerance to alcohol, but she thought it would not be a problem for her to have just one drink.
It was only that she had not expected that even though the wine tasted good, the alcohol was very strong quickly took effect.
Under the veil, it became clear that Fang Mo'er had become tipsy.
Chapter 105: Where Do You Live
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Of course, Chuck did not intend on making another toast.
He had not expected the Veiled Queen to have such a poor tolerance for alcohol, so he did not dare to make another toast. After a while, Chuck said, "The latest shipment of perfume has just arrived. I need to go and take care of it. Miss Veiled, Mr. Mu Ye, I'll take my leave first."
After Chuck had left, Fang Mo'er intended on finding an opportunity to leave as well.
She smiled at Mu Ye and said, "Mr. Mu, then I..."
"Does Miss Veiled really hate me?" Mu Ye suddenly glanced at her coldly.
Fang Mo'er froze just as she was about to get up. She quickly smiled and said, "Sir, you've misunderstood. I just need to go to the washroom."
On second thought, it would not be good for her to leave immediately.
Fang Mo'er stood up and walked towards the washroom.
In the bathroom, Fang Mo'er splashed her face with cold water and woke herself up from the effects of the alcohol.
She did not know why, but the alcohol that she had drunk today was especially intoxicating.
She returned to the room.
Mr. Mu Ye was still eating his meal slowly.
Xiao Tian was sitting to the side and keeping to herself in a reserved manner.
When she saw Fang Mo'er, she immediately exchanged glances with her.
Fang Mo'er had initially wanted to wait a little longer before leaving.
However, Mu Ye suddenly asked, "Miss Veiled, are you full?"
Fang Mo'er smiled and said, "Yes, I think I've eaten enough."
Mu Ye stood up abruptly and took the coat beside him. "Let's go, I'll send you back."
Fang Mo'er waved her hands. "There's no need, we'll just take a taxi back."
"Mr. Chuck asked me to take good care of you on his behalf. You have too many fans, I won't be at ease if I don't send you back to your place."

Xiao Tian quickly said, "That's right, Sister. If the driver is also a fan of yours, it would expose your whereabouts..."
Fang Mo'er suddenly felt that being popular was a very troublesome matter.
"Then, I'll have to trouble Mr. Mu."
After getting into the car, Mu Ye asked her, "Where does Miss Veiled live?"
Since it was so late, Fang Mo'er could not go anywhere else except to go home.
However, if Fang Mo'er revealed the location of her house, she was worried that her identity would be exposed.
Fang Mo'er said vaguely, "Jiang Bin Road."
The villa Shi Mo had bought was on Jiang Bin Road.
When they were near Jiang Bin Road, Mu Ye asked again, "Which house on Jiang Bin Road?"
"Just let me off here, please."
The car stopped at the entrance of a villa complex.
Mu Ye still wanted to send her in.
Fang Mo'er quickly said, "The security here is very good."
Fang Mo'er got out of the car.
Xiao Tian also got out of the car hurriedly. "I'll just take a taxi home from here."
Mu Ye looked at the entrance of the villa complex with an unreadable expression. His gaze fell back on Fang Mo'er and he said, "Alright then."
"Thank you, Mr. Mu. Next time, I'll treat you to a meal," Fang Mo'er said politely.
Mu Ye closed the car window and instructed the driver to leave.
After watching Xiao Tian get into the car, Fang Mo'er walked in from the main entrance.
The cold wind blew and the smell of alcohol on her body dissipated.
In the car, Mu Ye's lips suddenly curled up. There were fewer than a hundred people living in this villa complex. It should be much easier to investigate a person.
Perhaps, the real name of the Veiled Queen was on the list of residents.
Fang Mo'er had no idea that she had been made a target.
She was still thinking about it, but she had not expected Mu Ye to be such a nice person.
The small conflict from before seemed to have already dissipated.
Back at the villa.
Fang Mo'er quickly asked the butler, "Is Sir back?"
The butler replied, "Sir went on a business trip this afternoon."
Fang Mo'er was surprised. She opened her phone and realized that Shi Mo had left her a message an hour ago.
He said that he was going on a business trip for a few days.
Fang Mo'er was a little disappointed.
However, when she thought of Shi Mo's identity, it had to be a big deal for him to need to go on a business trip. She immediately replied, "Take care of yourself."
After a while, Shi Mo replied, "Honey, I should be the one saying this. Don't drink when I'm not around."
Fang Mo'er's alcohol tolerance was not good.
She felt a little guilty and remembered that she had only had one drink today yet she was already feeling a little intoxicated. She did not dare to let him know and quickly replied, "Don't worry."
Shen Yue called, "Do you know how many jobs you have now?"
Fang Mo'er was speechless, "How many?"
"Guest singing appearances for singing competitions, variety shows, concerts, endorsements..."
Fang Mo'er was surprised. "That's good too. "Love Mist" can also be promoted."
"Miss Fang, are you still asleep? This announcement is for the Veiled Queen. Your other identity is still just an ordinary person. Currently, no announcement has been sent to you yet."
Fang Mo'er sighed. "Alright, variety shows it is then. I can use the opportunity to promote the movie's theme song."
Shen Yue said, "Come to the company tomorrow. We should discuss your future plans."
Fang Mo'er nodded.
She opened Weibo again.
She logged into two accounts.
The Veiled Queen's Weibo was extremely popular, but as a songwriter and actress, Fang Mo'er's account had not been active for the past few days.
There were even some extreme fans who had left comments in the comments section, saying that a songwriter suddenly becoming an actress was simply not doing his job properly.
Fang Mo'er snorted and daydreamed about the time when the movie was finally released.. Surely then, those people would not say that she could not act.
Chapter 106: Snatched Her Own Job
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Star Dream Era.
Fang Mo'er arrived at Shen Yue's office.
There was a pile of documents in front of Shen Yue. The moment she saw Fang Mo'er, she immediately pushed all the documents to her.
"These are all the jobs that the Veiled Queen has received. One of them is the most urgent one at the moment."
Shen Yue pointed to the contract at the top.
On it was written 'Celebrity's Challenge'.
This was a variety show. Three popular celebrities would be invited on each episode to accept five different challenges at the same time.
The loser would receive a punishment at the end, while the winner would be rewarded with resources from the entertainment industry. It could be the singing rights to a song, an endorsement, or a chance to audition for a role.
Fang Mo'er took a look and quickly reacted. "You want me to sing the theme song on this program?"
Shen Yue nodded. "In fact, this program also invited Lang Qi and Bai Rong. It was a promotional opportunity that the film's investors bought with money. However, the other party only invited the Veiled Queen but not you, because you're still unknown in this field. You should be able to understand this."
Although Fang Mo'er had played the female lead role, she was still an outsider with no reputation.
Someone who was only a songwriter was not qualified to participate in such a variety show.
Therefore, the production team had rejected Fang Mo'er and chosen the singer of the theme song, the Veiled Queen instead.
Ads by Pubfuture
The main reason was that the Veiled Queen was currently popular because of her advertisement.
Fang Mo'er was a little speechless. "So, essentially I defeated myself?"
Shen Yue coughed. "Don't worry. Once the movie is released, your fame will slowly rise."
Fang Mo'er shrugged and flipped through the rest of the information.
She had not expected the Veiled Queen to receive so many job offers.
Shen Yue said, "I will help you plan the rest. My suggestion is that the Veiled Queen can take a different route other than acting. As for your other identity, just focus on acting. You can't act in both identities and end up as two movie queens, right?"
Shen Yue had made a witty analogy as she smiled widely.
Therefore, one of the identities was involved in the field, while the other identity insisted on not touching it.
For example, if the Veiled Queen had already endorsed perfume, then Fang Mo'er could no longer accept any perfume advertisement, so as to prevent herself from competing with her.
However, Fang Mo'er had already become an actress, so there was no need for the Veiled Queen to act anymore.
If one day, Fang Mo'er's hidden identity was exposed, the netizens would then be surprised to discover that Fang Mo'er's skills had suddenly doubled. She was actually an all-rounder artist.
In this world, it was really rare for an artiste to be able to sing, write songs, and act.
Shen Yue felt that she had picked up a treasure.
After Fang Mo'er had signed the contract for the variety show, Shen Yue had told her to go back home and prepare. She would be going to the filming location that evening and start recording the next day.
There would only be one episode of the show and filming would be finished in a day.
Fang Mo'er packed her luggage very simply.
In the WeChat group, Lang Qi tagged her. "Miss Veiled, I just heard from Sister Shen that we will be appearing on the variety show together. We are so fated!"
Fang Mo'er pursed her lips and replied, "I'm just the person who will be singing the theme song."
"How can that be? You don't even know how popular you are right now." Lang Qi then shouted in the group, "The program team wants me to bring a supporting guest tomorrow. Why don't I bring Fang Mo'er over?"
Fang Mo'er herself, "..."
Veiled Queen: "That's not very good. Didn't the program team say that it's best to invite someone with a higher status?"
Lang Qi immediately sent a disappointed emoji: "What a pity."
Little Stream Lang [email protected] Veiled Cutie: "By the way, have you chosen your supporting guest?"
Little Veiled Cutie: "I'm also worried about who to bring."
Bei shi [email protected] veiled cutie: "Is it the variety show 'Celebrity's Challenge'? I've been on that variety show before and I'm quite familiar with it. Could I be your supporting guest? You gave me a watch previously and I haven't thanked you yet. It just so happens that I have nothing to do tomorrow."
Fang Mo'er's face lit up with joy. The Queen of Songs being her supporting guest was a very big deal.
Lang [email protected] Actor Gong Hao: "Movie star, why don't we work together? I was your supporting guest previously, so now it's your turn."
Little Actor Gong Hao: "Sure."
Fang Mo'er blinked her eyes. Did this mean that she would be able to meet the other two big shots in the group soon?
Although she had chatted with them in the group before, Fang Mo'er had been busy with her filming and had not seen Bei Shi and Gong Hao in the company yet.
Previously, she had only sent the watches by mail. The two big shots were rarely at the company and were very busy.
In the evening, Fang Mo'er packed her simple luggage and was sent to the venue for the program shoot by Shen Yue.
Although it was her first time on a variety show, Shen Yue was not worried about her at all. After all, all four of her artistes would be on the show at the same time. They would be able to take care of each other.
She dropped Fang Mo'er off at the door and left straightaway.
Chapter 107: Supporting Guests Were Replaced
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Mo'er stood in the cold wind, feeling a little dazed.
It wasn't until she had been invited into the apartment by the program team staff.
"Miss Veiled, please go in and rest first. Filming will only be starting at 8 am tomorrow."
Fang Mo'er walked in, still feeling a little bewildered.
Lang Qi's voice came from the hall.
"Bai Rong, you've arrived so early!"
Another voice laughed, "Lang Qi, you also received an offer to participate. What a coincidence!"
"It's not a coincidence, I heard that the Mu family was the one who managed to procure this publicity opportunity." Lang Qi laughed, "Otherwise, why would I be here?"
Bai Rong pursed her lips and smiled, "I originally wanted several actors from the movie to be on the show. However, I heard that newcomers can't be on the show, so only the two of us were allowed to come. I just don't know who the third guest will be."
When he heard that Fang Mo'er could not come to promote the show, Lang Qi also felt a little regretful. "I don't know what the production team was thinking either. They didn't invite the female lead, not even as a supporting guest."
"Well, after all, she's not considered a big star, unlike us."
Fang Mo'er, who had just walked through the door, glanced at Bai Rong through her veil. She saw that Bai Rong was beaming with joy, feeling extremely pleased with herself.
Fang Mo'er carried her small suitcase as she walked in.

When Lang Qi saw that the Veiled Queen had arrived, he immediately greeted her warmly, "Sister Veiled."
When Bai Rong heard this title, her body stiffened and she immediately saw Lang Qi giving the Veiled Queen a very warm hug.
Lang Qi turned around and introduced Bai Rong, "Sister Bai, this is the singer of the movie's theme song. The program team will be arranging a segment for her to sing the theme song."
Bai Rong looked at Fang Mo'er in disbelief and the smile on her face disappeared.
Fang Mo'er grinned. "Miss Bai, we meet again."
Bai Rong, "..."
Who said that Fang Mo'er had not come? Hadn't she merely disguised herself?'
She was the one who had gone to great lengths to beg Mu Chen to persuade Mu Ye to spend money to promote the movie. She had not expected that Fang Mo'er would still be invited.
Wasn't this annoying?
The atmosphere instantly turned silent.
Lang Qi tried to break the awkwardness. "Oh right, you two should be very familiar with each other."
Previously, the Veiled Queen had only debuted because she had been Bai Rong's substitute.
"Not familiar."
"Not very familiar."
The two of them said at the same time.
Lang Qi, "..."
Suddenly, Bai Rong no longer had the enthusiasm to chat. She turned around and walked away. "We still have to shoot tomorrow morning. Let's rest early today."
She pushed open the door to one of the rooms, immediately closing it after entering.
She quickly called Mu Chen. "Brother Mu Chen, guess who I saw at the show?"
"Did you meet someone that you know?" Mu Chen was surprised.
Bai Rong said, "It's the Veiled Queen. Brother Mu Chen, can you think of a way to prevent her from appearing on this program? I don't want to see her. She even stole my endorsement last time."
"This is Mu Ye's decision. I can't do anything about it. Besides, she seems to be the singer of the movie's theme song. Isn't it just right to ask her to help with the promotion? Everyone is on the same side now."
Bai Rong rolled her eyes. Who would want to be on the same side as Fang Mo'er?
However, she also knew that this candidate had already been decided and it would not be so easy to change the person at once.
Moreover, Mu Chen had just pleaded with Mu Ye. If they were to trouble Mu Ye now, Young Master Mu would probably be annoyed.
Bai Rong thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Brother Mu Chen, would you be able to be my supporting guest then?"
Initially, Bai Rong had invited another artiste to be her supporting guest. However, after finding out that Fang Mo'er was also on the show, she had changed her mind.
Mu Chen was momentarily stunned. "I don't think it's a good idea for me to be on the show."
"It would be better if you were on the show. We've just gotten engaged. We can use this opportunity to promote ourselves and increase the popularity of the movie."
"Alright then, I'll be the supporting guest then." At the thought that Bai Rong wanted to use this opportunity to announce their marriage to the entire world, Mu Chen's heart immediately warmed up. "Rong 'er, you're such a good person. I'll definitely make you an international superstar."
Bai Rong sighed. "That'll have to wait until you become the person in charge of the Mu family."
Mu Chen paused for a moment. "This matter can't be rushed. We have to wait until we make produce some results first. Only then will the Old Master think highly of me."
Now that Mu Chen was in the Mu family, he was suppressed by Mu Ye in everything. It was too depressing.
For now, he would place all his treasures on Bai Rong. When Bai Rong became a superstar, the company would also then become increasingly bigger. Old Master Mu would then know that he had the ability to manage the company. When the time came, he would pull Mu Ye down and replace him.
Although Mu Ye had treated him well and was generous, Mu Chen was more than willing to swap places with him.
Who would really be willing to be someone who had to wag his tail and beg for money? Everything depended on whether the other party was happy or not.. Fate was in the other party's hands.
Chapter 108: Gourmet Competition
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There would be no host for the "Celebrities' Challenge" show, only challenge cards and celebrities.
Therefore, when filming started, Lang Qi consciously brought up a topic. "Let's start by guessing who everyone's supporting guests will be."
Although Lang Qi already knew who the Veiled Queen had invited, he still gave the audience a little bit of suspense.
Although the Veiled Queen and Bai Rong were not on good terms in private, they had to cooperate and chat.
The Queen of Songs, Bei Shi, and the movie star, Gong Hao, walked out one after another.
When Bai Rong saw that these artistes were all from the same company as Fang Mo'er, she immediately felt isolated and helpless.
Fortunately, the supporting guests that she had invited would definitely surprise Fang Mo'er.
If Fang Mo'er saw them showing off their love on the show, would she regret coming to this show?
"Bai Rong, what about your guest? I'm thinking that it should be one of your female seniors in the entertainment industry, right?"
The program's requirement was that they needed to invite someone with status.
Bai Rong should have invited someone from the industry.
Fang Mo'er did not have the mood to discuss this matter and only replied perfunctorily, "I guess so."
The guest should not be male. After all, Bai Rong had just gotten engaged, so it was not appropriate to bring a male guest onto the same stage at this time.
Mu Chen would not allow it either.

Thinking of this, Fang Mo'er felt rather bored. What was there to guess?
Hurry up and reveal the details. Let's get straight to the challenge segment.
She shifted her gaze to the challenge card at the side.
The challenge card had been placed on the table in the kitchen. Beside it were all sorts of prepared ingredients and props.
The first challenge was obviously related to delicacies.
Fang Mo'er was lost in her thoughts when she was suddenly interrupted by a voice greeting everyone, "Hello everyone, I'm Mu Chen."
Hearing this familiar voice, Fang Mo'er subconsciously looked over and was a little surprised.
Mu Chen had a decent expression on his face. As the guest of honor, he walked over to Bai Rong and stood beside her.
Everyone present was petrified for a moment. Wasn't this the man who had just announced his engagement to Bai Rong? Why was he on the show?
What was going on with the program team? Weren't they not allowed to bring outsiders?
Lang Qi almost lost his ability to speak. Only then did he finally react and said, "Then, let's see what the contents of today's challenge card will be, alright?"
Lang Qi took the challenge card and read out the contents of the card. "Guests, please make a dish according to the ingredients and let the supporting guests taste it. If the supporting guests can finish the food, then this group of guests will receive one point.
"After a total of five different challenges, the person who ends up with the most points will receive a mysterious gift from the program team. The person who gets the least points will be punished."
After reading out the challenge, Lang Qi looked dejected. "I'll be in trouble for this challenge. I usually don't cook much."
Gong Hao frowned slightly, but he still encouraged him, "Little lang qi, don't worry. No matter how bad it tastes, I'll finish it."
Lang Qi looked at the two guests beside him and asked them what their culinary skills were like?
Bai Rong blinked innocently. "What should I do? I've been eating food cooked by the maids since I was young. I've never been in the kitchen before."
Although Bai Rong had been born to an ordinary family, she was now a rich and beautiful woman, so she said that on purpose.

Mu Chen also cooperated and said, "Just do your best. No one could possibly know everything."
Bai Rong smiled sweetly and exchanged a glance with Mu Chen.
Bei Shi nervously asked the Veiled Queen, "How about you, Miss Veiled?"
Fang Mo'er gave her a comforting look. "I'm alright."
Bai Rong secretly snorted. Fang Mo'er had been pampered since she was young. It would be strange if she knew how to cook.
Bai Rong was more confident in her cooking skills. Although she rarely went into the kitchen, she knew how to cook normal dishes.
Very quickly, they went into the kitchen.
The ingredients in front of everyone were the same and the variety was complete. They were completely free to do whatever they wanted.
Bei Shi followed beside the Veiled Queen. When she saw the Veiled Queen wash and cut the vegetables, her heart immediately relaxed.
From the look of it, the Veiled Queen's cooking skills were pretty good.
On the other side, Bai Rong subconsciously looked at Fang Mo'er's side and could not help but frown.
She had not expected Fang Mo'er's performance to be so impressive. However, it was surely just for show. It may look good, but it would probably not be edible.
Fifteen minutes later, three dishes had been served on the dining table.
The camera was in the air, taking an overhead shot of the three dishes.
Lang Qi saw the awkward expression on Gong Hao's face and could not help but smile bitterly. "I told you that I didn't know how to cook. You probably should stop eating."
However, in the next second, Gong Hao picked up the plate and started eating.
His face was expressionless as he took one mouthful after another without stopping.
This made Lang Qi suspicious. "Could it be that what I cooked did not look good but did not taste bad?"
Chapter 109: Show of Affection
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bei Shi was attracted by the fragrance and immediately moved to pick up the delicious food. She took a bite and her eyes immediately lit up. "This is so delicious!"
After saying that, Bei Shi naturally wolfed down the food.
The challenge was judged by the ability of the supporting guests to finish the food prepared by the guests.
On one side, two of the supporting guests had already eaten more than half of the food.
Bai Rong confidently pushed the food that she had prepared in front of Mu Chen. "Brother Mu Chen, please try it."
"Okay, since Rong 'er made it, I will definitely finish it." Mu Chen said as he picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
As he chewed, he could not help but frown.
Mu Chen had been raised to have a picky palate since he was accustomed to all kinds of delicacies all his life, so he suddenly found the food he was eating now did not taste that good. In fact, he was unable to tolerate it.
Bai Rong saw that he was in a difficult position and immediately showed her disappointment. "Brother Mu Chen, if you don't like it, don't eat it. I'm fine with it."
Mu Chen's expression froze and he quickly coaxed, "No, I just think that it's really too delicious. I just didn't expect it."
In order not to disappoint Bai Rong and not to lose to the other guests, Mu Chen silently endured the repulsion in his heart. He braced himself and continued to consume the food, that looked like it had been boiled in plain water, into his stomach.
He had not expected it to be so terrible.
It looked like Bai Rong really did not know how to cook. Fortunately, Bai Rong still had acting skills. That was enough.

Mu Chen comforted himself in his heart.
"I'm done eating!" Bei Shi wiped her mouth and exclaimed excitedly to the director.
"I'm done eating too." Very soon, Gong Hao followed suit.
In the end, only Mu Chen was left.
Mu Chen ate slowly, while everyone waited for him.
Lang Qi said, "Young Master Mu is indeed cultured. He eats so slowly. It seems that Bai Rong's dishes are the same as mine. Although it looks average, the taste should be very good."
Gong Hao could not help but roll his eyes. "Little Lang Qi, don't you know your place? I relied on my tenacious willpower to finish it."
Lang Qi refused to admit his flaw. "Impossible! I saw you eating so quickly like you couldn't wait to finish it."
"Yes, I did want to finish it right away. Rather than prolonging my pain, I decided I might as well die quickly." Gong Hao did not even give Lang Qi any face at all.
Lang Qi had been mentored by him. It was Gong Hao who had brought Lang Qi up from a little rookie to his current celebrity status.
He was like a strict elder brother, and he was merciless in his criticism.
Lang Qi felt unhappy and quickly looked at Bei Shi. "Did your food look delicious, but did not really taste good?"
Bei Shi said happily, "No, it really was delicious."
The more Mu Chen listened to them, the more irritated he became. He thought Gong Hao was right, it was better to eat faster and die a quick death. Hence, he suddenly wolfed down his food, his expression showing a hint of malevolence.
Everyone present. "..."
Fang Mo'er glanced coldly at Mu Chen and thought to herself, this had to be true love.
In the original book, Mu Chen had always doted on Bai Rong. For Bai Rong's sake, he had worked hard to become the leader of the Mu family and pushed Bai Rong to the top of the entertainment industry.

He was truly infatuated, and someone who was good boyfriend material.
Unfortunately, apart from the advantage of being single-minded, he had done a lot of dirty things behind the scenes.
"Congratulations, everyone. The three guests have all received one point in this segment. Now let's go on to the next challenge location," said the director.
Bai Rong looked rather embarrassed and said to Mu Chen, "It wasn't good. You didn't have to eat it."
Mu Chen looked at her dotingly and said, "You made it, so of course I had to finish it."
The others looked as if they had been fed with dog food and left in a hurry.
The second segment.
Everyone arrived at the entrance of a large shopping mall.
Lang Qi took the challenge card and raised his eyebrows. "It's here, the remaining challenge segment for this program has begun."
After he said that, everyone except Fang Mo'er had an idea.
Lang Qi had already prepared for this segment, he then read out confidently, "Please let the makeup artist do your makeup in the dressing room. After that, you'll need to enter the supermarket and disguise yourself as an ordinary customer. The supporting guests will have to find the opponent's guest. The guest who is found will lose points in this round."
"At the same time, the guest who has not been found within 10 minutes will be able to walk out of the supermarket and carry on with their charade within the entire area of the shopping mall. If they are not found within half an hour, they will receive one point.
"Also, if the guest is recognized, but their supporting guests can identify someone else's disguised guest, their own guest will also receive one point in this round."
This round was a competition of acting skills.
Lang Qi looked eager to give it a try.
Bai Rong looked at Fang Mo'er, suddenly filled with the desire to win.
Fang Mo'er was quite interested in this segment.
Bei Shi said to her, "When the time comes, you won't have to wear a mask anymore.. You can just use makeup techniques to change the shape of your face accordingly."
Chapter 110: Disguised as an Old Man
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The director explained, "In this segment, every guest will be wearing a hidden camera. This segment will be broadcast live on the Internet. During that time, the netizens will be able to guess the identity of the guest through the six cameras. However, the supporting guests will not be allowed to bring their mobile phones along and will not be allowed to watch the live broadcast."
Soon, the three guests were taken to the dressing room.
A few minutes later.
In the supermarket, a group of customers swarmed in.
Mu Chen's goal was to find the Veiled Queen.
Best actor Gong Hao's goal was Bai Rong, and the singer Bei Shi's goal was to find Lang Qi. This had been decided by drawing lots.
Currently, Mu Chen was in the crowd, looking for the Veiled Queen's figure.
His eyes fell on several tall and shapely women, and even some men who were of the same height.
As long as they were of similar stature, he would examine them carefully.
However, after a round of inspection, he found nothing.
Mu Chen could not believe it and started to wander around the supermarket.
The makeup artists on the program team were all very skilled. What was being observed now was the acting skills of the actors. They could not show any panic in their eyes and they had to move in a way that matched their disguises.

In the live broadcast room.
Six camera images were broadcast simultaneously.
Many of the fans were already familiar with the scene and started discussing it.
"I'm guessing that the disguised guest in the three scenes above, the first scene in the lipstick area, should be Bai Rong or the Veiled Queen, and the second scene buying groceries could also be one of the first two and the third one, with the person moving slowly, looking and touching everything. That should be Lang Qi. I can see a man's sleeve.
The three shots below were of the supporting guests.
The titles of the three supporting guests were indicated with their names, so it was easy to recognize them.
Before long, Gong Hao's video screen could be seen moving in one direction and directly to the women's wear section.
The netizens exclaimed, "Oh no, someone is going to be caught."
From Gong Hao's video screen, he was actually walking towards a woman who was carrying a basket of vegetables.
From the expression and actions of the woman, she did not look like one of the disguised guests.
However, Gong Hao stretched out his arm towards the woman's shoulder and placed his hand on her shoulder. He said with certainty, "I've caught you."
Panic flashed across the woman's face. She said helplessly, "How did you recognize me?"
She had changed her clothes and even the skin on her hands. Even if she saw herself, she would not be able to recognize her.
However, this person had actually recognized her so quickly.
When the netizens heard this voice, they immediately asked, "Is this Bai Rong?"
"The best actor's eyes are indeed sharp. How did you see that?"
Ads by Pubfuture
When Gong Hao saw that she had admitted it, he pointed at the vegetable basket that Bai Rong was carrying. "You were just in the vegetable section that was having a big sale, and now you're running to a famous women's clothing store. Although it's very likely that you wanted to buy clothes for the rest of your family, the price difference between the two things is really too big."
Bai Rong's face stiffened. "I didn't expect to be caught because of this detail."
Bai Rong had just noticed that the women's clothing here looked quite good. She had thought that even an auntie could come and buy clothes for her daughter, so she had walked in.
She had not expected to be recognized by Gong Hao in an instant.
Only less than five minutes had passed.
Bai Rong and Gong Hao walked towards the other supporting guests in the supermarket.
When Mu Chen saw that Bai Rong had failed so quickly, he immediately said, "Rong 'er, don't worry. I will find the Veiled Queen. When the time comes, you will be able to score points."
Bai Rong could only place all her hopes on him. "Brother Mu Chen, you must find the Veiled Queen. In here, don't let go of anyone who is about her height!"
Although disguises could disguise one's appearance and even change one's body shape, height was the hardest to change.
Mu Chen nodded. "I know."
Only Lang Qi and the Veiled Queen had not been found.
Mu Chen was suddenly a little anxious. If they could not find the Veiled Queen within ten minutes, it would be even harder to find her once she walked out of the supermarket.
The entire shopping mall was too big.
In the live broadcast, only one person was still choosing lipstick, and the other was moving slowly in a different area.
The netizens speculated, "The one in the lipstick area should be the Veiled Queen. It's impossible that Lang Qi would be interested in lipstick. He has never been able to recognize the color of lipstick so it'd be impossible for him to spend so much time choosing it so carefully!"
Mu Chen came to the lipstick area and swept his gaze across the few people who were looking at the lipstick.
However, he did not find any traces of the person.
The netizens suddenly exclaimed, "F*ck, the area that Mu Chen is looking at seems to be the area where the first disguise was standing, yet he can't find the person. What's going on?"
Chapter 111: Checked the Surveillance Footage to Find the Person
"Judging by the look of it, it should be the girl in the flowery dress, right? But judging from her height, she's not the same height as the Veiled Queen at all. Her body size doesn't match either. She's even thinner and smaller than the Veiled Queen!"
"Could this person be Lang Qi?"
"No way, no way!"
"Hahaha, I got it. Lang Qi mentioned before that he was fully prepared for this segment. I didn't expect it to be like this!"
"It's too similar. Although Lang Qi is a young hunk, his height and build are pretty similar to a dainty woman. Now that he's dressed like this, he looks like the girl next door. Moreover, he's even picking lipstick like a woman. His research is so meticulous and terrifying. I'm afraid that the final winner of this round is already clear at a glance."
"But, hasn't the Veiled Queen not been found yet?"
Only then did the netizens look at the slowly moving camera in surprise.
The camera was pinned to the guest's chest.
All that everyone saw was that the Veiled Queen would occasionally stretch out a pair of hands with age spots from time to time. She touched here and there to look carefully for a long time, but she did not buy anything.
Instead, she looked like an old man who was killing time.
Even so, the netizens were also worried. "Even if the Veiled Queen can imitate the old man's movements very well, height is the biggest obstacle! Bei Shi has been looking for Lang Qi among the men, so she definitely won't be able to find him. However, Mu Chen has been observing both men and women! This height will probably be targeted."
As they spoke, everyone saw Mu Chen walking towards the area where the Veiled Queen was.
Surprisingly, Mu Chen's camera lens saw an old man looking at the goods. The old man held a pair of insoles in his hands and gestured back and forth.
The netizens' breathing stopped. "That's impossible!"
They only saw that the old man's actions were exactly the same as the Veiled Queen's.
Ads by Pubfuture
But that old man…
Mu Chen directly brushed past the old man.
The netizens immediately sent a shocked expression. "The veiled queen is too daring. She didn't even look at Mu Chen and dodged it just like that."
"This is too perfect. The Veiled Queen has disguised herself as a hunchbacked old man. Moreover, her figure is a little fatter than the original. There must be something else in her clothes!"
"But this should be because the makeup artist is too amazing."
Who would have thought that the current old man would actually be the Veiled Queen?
The two of them looked completely different from each other in terms of appearance and appearance.
But the most amazing thing was still the Veiled Queen's posture and movements. Even every expression was that of an old man.
Even the expression in her eyes dimmed quite a bit due to the slight squinting of her eyes.
She had brought an old man to life.
"I don't believe that this is an acting skill that a singer could perform. Could it be that the camera footage was misplaced? This isn't the Veiled Queen, right?"
Everyone knew that the Veiled Queen had been born a singer and did not know how to act at all.
But now, why was the Veiled Queen the one with the best acting skills among all the guests?
The netizens would rather believe that the program team had made a mistake and misplaced the hidden camera.
"Ten minutes are up. The guests can leave the supermarket now!"
At this moment, the director announced.
Mu Chen and Bei Shi were a little annoyed.
The two of them came to the entrance of the supermarket and looked at the customers who were coming and going. They could feel a headache coming on.
In the surveillance room of the shopping mall.
Mu Ye was studying the surveillance footage.
The footage froze when the three guests in disguise walked out of the dressing room.
Mu Ye's gaze swept over the three of them and stopped on an old man with white hair and a hunched back.
Mu Ye's eyes flashed with surprise. Then, he curled his lips. That's right, this person was the Veiled Queen.
Along the way, Mu Ye could see how the Veiled Queen walked leisurely in the shopping mall. She did not seem to be in a hurry.
However, so many people were looking for the whereabouts of the guests, yet no one stopped to look at this old man.
This was because this old man not only had a hunched back, but he was also too fat. He was so fat that he did not match the image of the three guests at the scene at all.
No one would have thought that this person would be the Veiled Queen.
But now, Mu Ye noticed that the Veiled Queen still had not even walked out of the supermarket. He raised his eyebrows again.
Even Mu Chen, Lang Qi, and Bei Shi had gone out of the supermarket.
The Veiled Queen was still looking at the goods leisurely.
Mu Ye raised his eyebrows and walked out.
Fang Mo'er walked to the entrance of the supermarket, still casually looking around.
Not far away, Mu Chen had already turned around, without a clue. He was standing at the entrance of the supermarket in a daze.
The corner of Fang Mo'er's mouth curled into a small arc.
Just then, two children who were playing around behind her suddenly bumped into Fang Mo'er.
Fang Mo'er stumbled and fell to the ground because her bulky disguise had made her too heavy.
Fang Mo'er subconsciously exclaimed: "Ah!"
Chapter 112: Voice Had Changed
Mu Chen seemed to have heard a woman's voice that was very similar to that of the Veiled Queen. He immediately turned around to look inside the supermarket.
Suddenly, a voice stopped him from walking back. "Mu Chen!"
Mu Chen looked up and immediately smiled. "Brother, why are you here?"
Mu Ye glanced at the Veiled Queen who was struggling to get up and smiled, "I'm here to check the sales results at the mall. Why are you here?"
"I'm filming a variety show."
While the two of them were chatting, Fang Mo'er had already stood up and hurriedly walked to the back of the container, instantly shifting her position.
The situation just now had been a close call.
Just a little more and Mu Chen would have been able to see her on the ground the moment he had turned his head.
Also, who knows whether that exclamation just now might have prompted Mu Chen to think of something.
That was close!
After a while, when Mu Chen returned to the supermarket, he still could not find the Veiled Queen.
Time ticked by until there were only ten minutes left.
He felt as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He immediately ran out of the supermarket and quickly checked the large area.
"Grandfather, are you alright? I saw you fall to the ground earlier. Let me take you to the infirmary to have a look."
Just as Fang Mo'er was feeling thankful that she had not been discovered, a warm and pleasant voice suddenly came from behind her.
She panicked, but she pretended to be calm on the surface as she slowly turned around to look at the owner of the voice.
Mu Ye had a polite smile on his face and his eyes were full of kindness. "It's our mall's narrow design that caused you to get injured. It's our mall's fault. Please follow me to the infirmary to see if you're injured, alright?"

Mu Ye stretched his hand out towards Fang Mo'er.
Fang Mo'er could feel the man's hand gently clasping her wrist.
"No need, no need. Young man, I'm fine. Go ahead and do what you need to do." Fang Mo'er said in an old voice.
At the moment, the initially lively live broadcast room had gone completely silent.
This voice was obviously the voice of an old man.
This person had clearly been the Veiled Queen.
How had his voice changed in the blink of an eye?
It was too terrifying.
Not only was the Veiled Queen good at acting, but she could also even change her voice so naturally.
Mu Ye's pupils constricted. He was a little surprised by what he had just heard.
If not for the surveillance video just now, he would not have already confirmed that this person was the Veiled Queen.
Otherwise, he would have really suspected that this person in front of him was just an ordinary fat old man.
He lowered his gaze and tried to hide the excitement in his eyes.
"I'd better get the doctor to take a look. Otherwise, I'd be really worried."
Without a word, he pulled the Veiled Queen with him and walked out.
Fang Mo'er had not expected him to be so domineering. All she could do was to stagger along with him.
Was Mu Ye really that kind?
She was still confused when she was brought to the infirmary.
Just then, Fang Mo'er suddenly heard the director shouting, "30 minutes are up! Lang Qi and the Veiled Queen get one point each."
Fang Mo'er thought that she had finally made it.
She quickly straightened her back and wrestled herself free of Mu Ye's hand. "Mr. Mu, you don't have to worry. I'm just participating in a show."
Mu Ye's eyes flashed with regret the moment the director spoke.
He pretended to be surprised and took a step back. "You… You are?"
Fang Mo'er shrugged. "I'm the Veiled Queen."
Fang Mo'er quickly explained to him that she was participating in the challenge project and had already reached the second stage.
Only then did Mu Ye seem to have finally accepted it. "It's good that you're fine. I knew that the show would be filming at the mall, but I didn't expect you to disguise yourself so well. Even I misjudged you."
Fang Mo'er only smiled. "I'm sorry, I have to meet up with the production team first."
Mu Ye stepped aside and said meaningfully, "We'll meet again then."
Fang Mo'er returned to the meeting place of the production team.
Bei Shi had an exaggerated expression on her face as she looked at Lang Qi, who was dressed in women's clothing. "I'm impressed. For the sake of the show, you were willing to sacrifice your image."
Lang Qi absolutely loved acting, and he still maintained the bashful look of a young girl. He pursed his lips and giggled. "Sister, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Bei Shi, "…"
It was at this moment that everyone saw the Veiled Queen slowly walking over.
Mu Chen's face turned even darker when he saw the Veiled Queen's attire.
He seemed to have seen this old man more than once or twice, but he had not taken much notice.
Although Bei Shi had not found her target, because the Veiled Queen had won, she could be considered to have won as well.
She immediately went up to Fang Mo'er in surprise. "As expected of the queen. You hid yourself very well."
The director announced, "The current score is two points for the Veiled Queen, two points for Lang Qi, and one point for Bai Rong.
"Next, we'll move on to the next segment."
When the small group changed back to their original appearances, Lang Qi began to read the challenge card. "Please find a person named Mu Ye in the mall and ask him to assign you tasks. You will be challenging the new employees for half a day. If the results of your work are confirmed by Mu Ye, you will receive one point."
Chapter 113: Too Many Male Fans
The live broadcast on the Internet came to an abrupt end when the disguise competition ended.
The fans in the live broadcast room still wanted more.
This live broadcast was an advance preview of the show. As expected, all kinds of news articles about the disguise competition soon appeared on the top searches.
"The young hunk Lang Qi's long-planned female disguise."
"Bai Rong went to a women's clothing store and was unexpectedly caught with just one glance."
"Bei Shi and Gong Hao's challenge to help a celebrity."
"Bai Rong and her fiancé make their first appearance on a variety show."
"The Veiled Queen disguises herself as an old man and hides it from everyone."
Many people clicked on the live video recording and played it.
The number of views soon exceeded one million.
With such a huge amount of attention, even the major media outlets were reporting on this matter.
For a time, all the major entertainment sections were dominated by this show.
"Lang Qi's new movie is about to be released. Everyone, hurry up and get ready to buy tickets."
"No wonder we can see the Veiled Queen at this time. I heard that the Veiled Queen sang the theme song of "Love Mist". In order to listen to the Queen's song, I will definitely go to the venue to buy tickets."
"This movie hasn't even been released yet but I feel like it will be extremely popular."
"I'm glad watched the broadcast of this show. There are very few chances to see the Veiled Queen appear on the program."
"Bai Rong's first acting role is worth looking forward to."
Just as news about the show had become a hot topic on the Internet, the artistes who were participating in the variety show were now preparing for their third challenge.

"Even the investor of our movie is going to appear personally?" Lang Qi was a little surprised when he saw Mu Ye's name.
Bai Rong was elated. She looked at Mu Chen and said, "You even invited your brother."
She was only playing the second female lead, yet the Mu family had spared no effort to help promote the movie. It showed how important her existence was.
Or rather, how much the Mu family valued the child in her belly.
The next segment only required the guests to accept the challenge themselves. The supporting guests could only be invited to the monitoring room to watch the show.
"Then, where is Mr. Mu Ye now?" Lang Qi asked again.
The three of them had no choice but to enter the mall again. Following the instructions, they finally found Mu Ye who was reading some documents in the office.
After knocking on the door, the three artistes walked in together.
All of them wanted to know what kind of recruitment challenge Mu Ye would be arranging for them.
Mu Ye put down the documents and swept his gaze over each person, one by one.
When he saw the Veiled Queen, he paused for a few seconds before finally shifting his gaze to Bai Rong.
Then he said, "Your challenge today is to be a salesperson and sell the products assigned to you. I will then give you a score based on your performance."
Bai Rong's hands moved slightly to hide the excitement in her heart.
It seemed that this round would be a sure thing.
Mu Ye would definitely give her this point.
The small group of artistes started to walk towards the shopping mall downstairs.
The director walked over and said, "This challenge is mainly to allow the Veiled Queen to sing the theme song. When you guys are promoting your products, there will be microphones and stereo systems. You guys can think of ways to attract the attention of the customers. The Veiled Queen will take this opportunity to sing the theme song."
Bai Rong looked at Fang Mo'er with jealousy.
It seemed that Fang Mo'er was going to be the highlight of this segment.
Fang Mo'er nodded at the director.
Lang Qi also smiled and said, "This time, it'll be your home advantage."

Fang Mo'er arrived at the entrance of a shop. There was already a big table at the entrance with the products that were to be sold on it.
However, before she could even start selling them, there were already many enthusiastic fans behind her.
More and more people started gathering around her.
Fortunately, there were security guards to maintain order.
Otherwise, Fang Mo'er would have been mobbed by the fans.
"Ah, it's the Veiled Queen!"
"Whatever the Queen sells, we will support it!"
Fang Mo'er realized then that there were too many male fans supporting her.
Even if she was selling skincare products for women, the male fans looked like they were ready to snap them up.
There wasn't even any need to wait for her to perform.
Fang Mo'er looked helplessly in the direction of the director.
The other artistes had already started selling their products at different shops, while the director was tailing Fang Mo'er.
The main focus of the shoot this time had initially been for Fang Mo'er to sing the theme song.
It had originally been meant to be a perfect showcase of talent.
Who would have thought that the fans were ready to spend their money, even with the person just standing there?
This…
The director said helplessly, "Let's sell the products first. We'll find another opportunity for the theme song."
With the number of fans gathering, if Fang Mo'er sang a song, everyone in the whole mall would probably come over.
It was not known how the other guests were doing, but the Veiled Queen was extremely popular.
Having received Fang Mo'er the director's instruction, she immediately said into the microphone, "Please don't miss this opportunity. Everyone, if you have money, please support me by buying something. If you don't, then please just support me anyway."
She looked at the fans who were holding their money in their hands, preparing to rush over.
The fans shouted excitedly, "Of course!"
The security guards began to let the fans through one by one, and the products sold out quickly.
Chapter 114: Performed the Theme Song
"You're the fastest person to sell out," the director said to Fang Mo'er.
What was even scarier was that almost all the male customers had been attracted by the Veiled Queen.
Fang Mo'er was the first to return to the lounge.
In the lounge, the supporting guests were eating snacks as they watched the scene on the big screen.
It showed the situation of the other two artistes.
When Bei Shi saw Fang Mo'er walking over, she gave her a thumbs up. "As expected of the perfume spokesperson, she didn't let any male customers off."
Fang Mo'er smiled bitterly.
She thought about how she had been trapped in the parking lot by her crazy fans.
Mu Chen was watching the surveillance footage.
In the footage, Bai Rong's side was in a rather miserable state.
The male fans had been attracted by the Veiled Queen while the female fans had all gone to Lang Qi's side.
Bai Rong's side was neither too high nor too low. Only a few people were buying things sporadically.
It was indescribably miserable.
Mu Chen thought for a moment before quickly taking out his phone and sending a message.
Very soon, a new batch of customers rushed towards Bai Rong's side, frantically buying things.
Mu Ye, who was also checking the surveillance cameras, also saw the popularity of the Veiled Queen.
Ads by Pubfuture
The female secretary by his side said, "This Veiled Queen should now be considered the goddess of the advertising world."
A single advertisement could make a product sell like hotcakes.
She had become the goddess in the hearts of men.
What was even stranger was that even until now, the Veiled Queen's true appearance was still a mystery. It was quite amazing that she was still able to attract so many people.
"Who do you think she is under the mask?" Mu Ye asked.
"We're all guessing that the Veiled Queen is probably the princess of a certain country. Why else would she have such a noble air about her?" The female secretary said.
Mu Ye thought of the Veiled Queen's amazing acting skills today. She had made it look almost completely authentic. Who could guarantee that the noble air in the advertisement was not just one of her acts?
In the surveillance footage, Lang Qi followed closely behind and finished selling the products.
Bai Rong was the last to return to the lounge. She forced a smile on her face.
She had not expected that after being an artiste for so many years, she would be completely outdone by the Veiled Queen who had only just debuted not too long ago.
If not for the fact that the advertisement had been snatched away by the Veiled Queen, the popularity that she had now would have been hers.
Not long after, Mu Ye arrived. He wanted to give the scores based on everyone's performance.
The result was obvious. All three of them got one point.
"The current score is three points for the Veiled Queen, three points for Lang Qi, and two points for Bai Rong."
The director said to them, "Since the movie's theme song hasn't been sung yet, we've decided to make some adjustments to the next segment."
The next segment was supposed to be the lyrics guessing segment.
Now, it seemed that they could only temporarily change it to a talent segment.
So, when Lang Qi received the handwritten challenge card, the content he read out had already been changed to, "The guest will perform the talent, and the supporting guest will help canvas for votes on the Internet. The one who has more than 10,000 likes will get one point."
There was basically no suspense to this question. It would be a tie again.

Bei Shi held her phone and helped Fang Mo'er record the singing video.
Very quickly, the theme song of "Love Mist" appeared on Bei Shi's official Weibo.
"One hour, number of likes challenge: participating in a Celebrity's Challenge program, if you have more than 10,000 likes in one hour, you will get one point. Everyone, please help share your likes."
Bei Shi was originally the Queen of Songs. With tens of millions of fans, it would be easy for her to get 10,000 likes.
It was the same for Gong Hao. With tens of millions of fans, it was a piece of cake.
Mu Chen's publicity department also bought a lot of them.
Now, they were just waiting for the hour to be over to announce the results of the challenge.
The assistant, who was checking the number of likes, suddenly said to the director, "Director, the challenge video is trending."
"Isn't that obvious?" The director did not think it was strange. This episode had already dominated the headlines of all major news an hour ago.
Now that there was another wave of likes, it would make the popularity even hotter.
"No, director, it's a big hit. Director, look at this." The assistant was so excited that he could not even speak properly.
The director took it over and looked. It was the number of likes that the assistant had calculated an hour later.
Bai Rong had 11,000 likes.
Lang Qi had 50,000 likes
When the director saw this, he was not surprised. Bai Rong's reputation was still a little poor, but the combination of both popular stars like Lang Qi and movie star Gong Hao managed to accumulate a high number of likes in an hour. It had definitely broken the one-hour likes record on the website.
It seemed that the first place had already been determined.
The director then subconsciously glanced at the number of likes on the Veiled Queen below Lang Qi and suddenly stopped moving. His gaze went back and forth on the number of likes repeatedly.
One, ten, one hundred, one thousand, one hundred thousand…
The director thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.
Chapter 115: Terrifying Popularity
How was it possible to accumulate so many likes in an hour?
No matter how many fans there were, within just an hour, many fans would not have time to react because they did not even know about this event.
To have over 10,000 likes was already good enough.
However, this time, the number of likes for this theme song had not only broken past 100,000 but had also stopped at the intimidating number of 150,000.
150,000 was three times as many as Lang Qi's.
In the challenge video, Bai Rong had sung her own song.
Lang Qi had made a dance video.
Meanwhile, the Veiled Queen had sung the entire theme song.
The internet was in an uproar.
"The Veiled Queen's song is so good to listen to!"
"The "Love Mist" has already been added to my song list."
"Even though it's just a simple accompaniment, it's still so good to listen to. This must be due to the strength of her singing ability."
"I'm in love. When can I hear the official version of this song?"
"This song has to be played at least three times in a row."
In the video, the Veiled Queen's accompaniment had been a little soft because it had casually been played from within the phone. However, it did not detract from the Veiled Queen's singing ability, so the integrity of the entire song was still very high.
The song quickly became popular.

The director took the one-hour statistics and returned to the waiting room.
After the guests at the venue had released the challenge video, they had been asked to place the phone on flight mode.
This was done to create a sense of suspense for the guests.
Therefore, when the director walked out, everyone looked at the director curiously.
Lang Qi was the first to ask, "So, how did it go?"
There shouldn't be anyone present who had not exceeded 10,000, right?
The director took a deep breath and cast a meaningful glance at the Veiled Queen.
This glance caused Lang Qi to misunderstand, "Could it be that someone didn't meet the standards?"
When Bai Rong heard this, she immediately glanced in Fang Mo'er's direction with a hint of ridicule in her eyes.
That made sense since Bei Shi's fans were mostly female fans.
Even if she recommended other singers now, the fans of the Queen of Songs might not necessarily buy it.
The Queen of Songs usually had a very high standard of singing, and her fans' tastes were used to a high standard. It would be even harder than ascending to the heavens for Fang Mo'er to get a like just by singing a random song.
The other staff members present were also paying special attention to the Veiled Queen.
Everyone made a vague guess that something must have gone wrong with the Veiled Queen's data.
Fang Mo'er clenched her fists. There had clearly been nothing wrong with her performance just now.
Bei Shi was feeling chagrined and said, "Was the accompaniment too soft just now? I just felt that using your phone to play the accompaniment would have a much worse effect."
The two of them had gone to a quiet corner to record earlier. The other guests did not even know how they had done it.
Lang Qi frowned when he heard this. "Isn't this a cappella?"
No wonder the numbers were so bad.
Ads by Pubfuture
If it was a cappella, it would really test one's singing ability.
Everyone spoke one after another. Some of them were already consoling the Veiled Queen, saying that if it had been a video from the concert, the situation would definitely not be like this.
When the director heard this, he quickly interrupted them. This was great. Once the numbers were announced, it would immediately be reversed. Even the effects of the variety show were out.
"Next, I will first announce Bai Rong's likes. Congratulations, Bai Rong. The number of likes is 11,000. The challenge is a success."
Bai Rong's expression relaxed. It was enough as long as the number of likes exceeded 10,000.
"Congratulations, Lang Qi. The number of likes is 50,000."
Lang Qi was not surprised by this number of likes. With his and Gong Hao's fans added together, it was already 50 million people. Achieving 1 out of 1000 likes was not an easy achievement.
Everyone looked at the Veiled Queen.
The director purposely kept her guessing. "Veiled Queen, What do you think your stats are?"
Fang Mo'er thought about it and felt that she had not made any mistakes in her performance. It should not have been impossible for her to reach 10,000 likes. Even if the accompaniment was not perfect, with the support of Bei Shi's fans, it was impossible that she had not even reached 10,000 likes.
Fang Mo'er trusted her judgment and smiled, "I think I won't be at the bottom."
If she wasn't at the bottom, it meant that someone else would be at the bottom.
Bai Rong smiled, "You're a confident woman. How charming. However, I also believe that I won't be at the bottom."
Fang Mo'er looked at her, "You're also very confident."
Bai Rong was very confident.
Thinking about what Bei Shi had just said, Fang Mo'er had even had flaws in her accompaniment. Thus, Bai Rong immediately gave a very confident smile.
Bei Shi quickly said, "If the number of likes isn't good, it will be because I was not good enough. Miss Veiled's performance just now was very good."
"Bei Shi, you don't have to blame yourself. Even if you couldn't raise it with your fan volume, it can't be helped." Bai Rong quickly comforted her.
At that moment, the director coughed. "Now, we will announce the likes of the Veiled Queen. Congratulations to the Veiled Queen. The number of likes has exceeded 150,000!"
For a moment, all the guests were stunned.
Chapter 116: When Was the First Kiss
Even Lang Qi could not believe it. His own claim as a very popular celebrity was not an exaggeration.
The enthusiasm of his female fans to be able to push him up to 50,000 likes had already made him feel that he had definitely clinched the first placing in this competition.
Who would have thought…
150,000 likes!
Three times Lang Qi's.
Fifteen times Bai Rong's.
"That's great!" Bei Shi heaved a sigh of relief.
"This is too high, I'm so envious." Lang Qi looked at the Veiled Queen in shock.
Mu Chen and Bai Rong were both shocked.
Bai Rong's face turned pale and she lowered her head, without saying a word.
She really was at the bottom.
Mu Chen looked at the Veiled Queen's current fame and felt a little regretful.
If he had signed a contract with the Veiled Queen back then, such popularity would have brought so much fortune to his company.
But now…
In this round, everyone got one point.
Fang Mo'er and Lang Qi each got four points, but Bai Rong only got three points.
If Bai Rong did not get a point in the last round, she would be the only one to be punished.
One of the highlights of this show was the final punishment segment.
Every challenge would be a parody of the celebrity's image.
Bai Rong did not want to be the one to be punished.
Therefore, she had to win the last round.
As long as Lang Qi or Fang Mo'er lost a point, she would have a chance to play an extra round and gain the chance to overtake them.
However, if she lost this round, then there would be no chance at all.

Lang Qi took the challenge card and said excitedly, "I'm sure of this question. The tacit understanding challenge."
Lang Qi and Gong Hao had been friends for several years.
The two of them knew each other very well, so their tacit understanding was naturally very good.
"Please invite the guests and the supporting guests to answer the questions at the same time. If the answers are the same, then one flower will be given. Those who get four flowers for five questions will get one point for this round."
Bai Rong immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the challenge.
There should not be any problem with the tacit understanding between her and Mu Chen.
Bei Shi wailed, "It's over. It's my first time meeting Miss Veiled today."
Fang Mo'er frowned as well. She felt that she had no chance of winning this round.
She patted Bei Shi on the shoulder and said, "It's alright, just answer whatever you want."
"The first question, may I ask when was the guest's first kiss?"
These questions were meant to test the guests'understanding of the guests.
Bai Rong and Mu Chen looked at each other.
Their first kiss was when Mu Chen and Fang Mo'er were still together, so it was impossible for them to write this down.
However, they could not communicate on the spot, so Bai Rong could not help but feel nervous.
How would Bei Shi know about the Veiled Queen's first kiss anyway? So, she braced herself and wrote down a random answer.
"Now, let's write the answers together and show them to everyone."
Bai Rong and Mu Chen were uncertain.
They did not know what time the other party had written.
The two of them revealed their writing boards at the same time.
They both heaved a sigh of relief.
The director said, "The answer given by the first group is actually the same day."
Fang Mo'er glanced at it and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
The day that they had both written was the day that Mu Chen and Bai Rong had announced their relationship.
However, Fang Mo'er remembered that in the original book, Mu Chen had already found a chance to kiss Bai Rong before he had broken up with her original character.
Huh, the two of them were really a match made in heaven.
Bai Rong smiled and said, "This is the day we announced our relationship. That was my first kiss."
Ads by Pubfuture
After saying that, she smiled sweetly with a hint of shyness in her eyes.
Mu Chen also said, "That was also my first kiss."
The crowd erupted in applause.
The pair then put an end to their PDA.
The second group, Lang Qi and Gong Hao, actually wrote down the same day as well.
Lang Qi spread his hands and said, "Everyone knows about my first kiss on screen. There's nothing to guess."
It was Fang Mo'er's turn.
The Veiled Queen's date was the day Mu Chen had stood her up when they were meant to get married. That day, she had gotten married to Shi Mo. That night, the two of them had their first kiss.
Of course, Bei Shi had only casually written down a date. The two of them did not have any tacit understanding at all.
The Veiled Queen only said, "This day means a lot to me."
Bai Rong bit her lip. Could it be that Fang Mo'er had found an opportunity to pester Mu Chen on that day?
That day, she had been the one who had found an opportunity to stall Mu Chen and prevent him from getting married to Fang Mo'er.
She looked at Mu Chen with some dissatisfaction while Mu Chen was baffled.
Bei Shi shrugged helplessly. She felt that she would not be able to answer any of the questions correctly today.
"The second question is, has the guest ever been betrayed?"
Bai Rong and Mu Chen's answers were both no.
Lang Qi and Gong Hao answered yes, and Lang Qi shared his experience of being stabbed by his friend in university.
Bei Shi wrote no.
However, the Veiled Queen wrote the exact opposite.
Bei Shi was also dumbfounded. She had thought that with the Veiled Queen's outstanding performance, no one would be willing to betray her.
She should have been able to earn a flower this round, but who would have thought…
"It can't be, have you been betrayed too?" Lang Qi felt that he had a kinship with the Veiled Queen. "Did you also have a bad friend?"
Bai Rong and Mu Chen both looked at the Veiled Queen.
Mu Chen was not bothered at all, but Bai Rong secretly clenched her fists.
She saw Fang Mo'er glance at her with a meaningful look.
Bai Rong's heart suddenly pounded when she heard Fang Mo'er speak.
Chapter 117: Was Blind
Everyone present was extremely curious about the Veiled Queen's experience of being betrayed.
Even the director had the camera take close-ups of the Veiled Queen.
Everyone was very curious about what had happened.
"Back then, I wasn't sensible and fell in love with someone who didn't deserve to be liked. In the end, while we were together, he was two-timing me and secretly dated someone else while we were still together."
Lang Qi was extremely surprised. "Is this man blind?"
The Veiled Queen said, "I must have been blind to fall in love with such a person."
Bei Shi was indignant for the Veiled Queen. "I hate this kind of scum the most."
As everyone was criticizing this kind of behavior, Bai Rong bit her lip and did not say anything.
She did not interject as well.
She tried to maintain a decent smile on her face.
"Is that man from the industry?" Lang Qi asked, wanting to dig deeper.
Mu Chen said, "Such shameless behavior should be exposed and punished severely."
The Veiled Queen looked at Mu Chen and said with an ambiguous look, "Oh, what kind of punishment do you think he should be given?"
Mu Chen had a righteous look on his face. "Of course he should die socially. Such a scumbag shouldn't have the chance to harm others."
Bai Rong's eyebrows twitched slightly when she heard this and tried to change the topic. "I think Sister Veiled won't want to talk about sad things anymore. After all, it's all in the past."
Everyone looked at the Veiled Queen with a trace of pity.
Ads by Pubfuture
They had not expected such an outstanding person to have such bad luck as to meet such a terrible ex.
Fang Mo'er pursed her lips in a noncommittal manner.
The Veiled Queen and Bei Shi did not match up in the next three questions.
It could be said that they had completely wiped out in this segment.
However, they had not expected Bai Rong to have two questions that did not match up.
One question was, "When was the first date?"
The time difference between Bai Rong and Mu Chen was more than ten days and did not match at all.
In the end, Bai Rong could only claim that her memory was not very good and had forgotten it.
Another question was, "What is the most romantic thing that you have ever done?" The answers of both of them did not match either.
In the end, Fang Mo'er and Bai Rong did not score at all in this round. On the contrary, Lang Qi and Gong Hao's team had unexpectedly gotten all the answers right and got one point.
In this way, after five rounds, only Bai Rong was left at the bottom.
"Next, I will announce the punishment and prizes for this challenge."
The moment these words were said, Bai Rong was the most nervous.
She did not know what kind of punishment she would have to face.
Mu Chen reached out to pull her hand and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, it shouldn't be too difficult."
Mu Ye was the sponsor of this show.
Even if Bai Rong lost, the program team should know to restrain themselves and change it to a simpler punishment.
As expected, the director said, "The punishment is: you will need to camp alone in the forest for a night and you are not allowed to accept help from any others."
Hearing this, Bai Rong's expression turned bitter. "Don't tell me you want me to sleep alone in a tent outside?"
The director tacitly agreed to this sentence.
Bai Rong thought about how she would have to spend a night alone in a tent, in a dark and scary place. She also thought about how she had to worry about whether there would be any animals or mosquitoes around. Her expression instantly turned ugly.
Even though she knew that the program team would definitely confirm her safety and not let her stay in a dangerous place, she was still unwilling to accept it.
Who would be willing to camp alone in the wild when there was a warm bed at the hotel?
However, she could not refuse.
After announcing the punishment, the program team said, "Lang Qi and the Veiled Queen will be rewarded."
The director produced two envelopes.
Lang Qi and the Veiled Queen each chose one at random.
The first to open the envelope was Lang Qi. On it was written, "The reward is either 10 million yuan or the rights to the movie adaptation of the ancient novel 'Stars.'"
Seeing this reward, Lang Qi was surprised.
"The program team is really generous."
'Stars' was the most popular novel at the moment. The fact that the rights to the film adaptation of the novel were very valuable went without saying.
Bai Rong looked on in jealousy.
Fang Mo'er was also a little surprised. She had not expected the reward for this show to be of such high quality.
Originally, this novel was later adapted into a TV series. Bai Rong had become the female lead of this show, and it became very popular because the show won the viewership ratings for the whole year.
Lang Qi said without hesitation, "I choose the rights to adapt the movie."
At this time, Fang Mo'er also opened the envelope that she received. "The reward is either 10 million yuan or be appointed as the spokesperson of Wanfeng Mall."
Seeing this reward, Bei Shi said without hesitation, "This reward is not bad either. Wanfeng Mall is the largest chain mall in the country. Their brand endorsement is also very valuable."
The Wanfeng Mall that they were at was one of the chain stores.
The biggest shareholder was the Mu family.
Now, the Mu family was actually using the position as a spokesperson as a reward. It was a great gesture.
Chapter 118: Punishment
At the moment, Bai Rong was so jealous that she was about to go crazy.
She had long coveted this advertising endorsement, but she had yet to speak to Mu Chen.
However, in her heart, this endorsement should have belonged to her in the first place.
The spokesperson for the largest chain store in the country could not only increase her popularity but also raise her status to a higher level.
But now…
Bai Rong could not help but remind her, "Sister, if you don't have such plans, you can actually choose the cash."
Fang Mo'er actually did not want to have anything to do with the Mu family.
However, she knew that if she chose to accept the cash on the show, it would mean that she was implying that the endorsement for Wanfeng Mall was not as valuable as ten million dollars.
Usually, guests would not choose to use cash on the show because it would offend people.
Looking at Bai Rong's anxious expression, she could not wait any longer.
Fang Mo'er immediately made a decision. "I choose to be the spokesperson."
The other guests had already finished filming, only Bai Rong still had to follow the program team to shoot the punishment segment.
She probably had to suffer tonight.
Fang Mo'er did not really care about this. She exchanged a few pleasantries with the other guests and quickly left.
She received a message from Shi Mo on her phone, informing her that he would be back from his business trip in the evening.
Fang Mo'er quickly found a place to remove the Veiled Queen's veil and drove towards the airport.
She planned to give Shi Mo a surprise welcome.
At the airport entrance.
Fang Mo'er rolled down the car window and looked around.
Her beautiful face was exposed to the air.
Many people were walking around, but no one recognized her.
Ads by Pubfuture
Fang Mo'er had just experienced the huge fan effect of the Veiled Queen.
Now that she was being ignored, she suddenly felt that it was actually quite nice to have no one around to watch. She was free.
Of course, she was just consoling herself, that she was an actress who did not want to become a movie queen or a good singer.
Fang Mo'er's thoughts were running wild. When she saw a familiar figure coming out of the airport, she immediately lowered her hat on purpose.
She had specially contacted Assistant Yu just now.
Now, she was disguised as a chauffeur, wearing a male outfit and a hat on her head.
She immediately pulled on her mask.
She wanted to see if Shi Mo would recognize her.
When Shi Mo walked towards the familiar car, Fang Mo'er got out of the car and lowered her head. She took the luggage from Shi Mo'er's hands.
Shi Mo'er naturally accepted Fang Mo'er's service.
It was as if he had not noticed her at all.
Fang Mo'er's eyes lit up.
After she had put the luggage away, she quickly got into the car and drove away.
Shi Mo had smelled a familiar scent from the moment he had first come into contact with the driver.
Now that the car had started moving, his gaze had inadvertently fallen on the woman who was driving seriously.
He had also watched the live broadcast of today's disguise.
Fang Mo'er's acting skills were indeed very good.
However, that could only fool outsiders.
For someone like him who was familiar with Fang Mo'er, he could quickly discover the clues through certain signs.
For example, Fang Mo'er's body scent would remain in the air even if she wore other perfumes to cover it up.
He would be able to detect it with just a slight identification.
"Sir, are you going back to your residence?" Fang Mo'er imitated the driver's voice and asked.
Shi Mo shook his head. "To the restaurant."
Fang Mo'er had no choice but to drive Shi Mo to the parking lot of the restaurant.
Ads by Pubfuture
She then stopped the car.
Fang Mo'er was still wondering, 'Who was Shi Mo here to have dinner with?'
It was obvious that he had not invited her.
Could it be that he had invited other friends?
She could not believe that he had come back from a business trip and had completely forgotten about her. To think that she would even come here to pick him up right after her show.
Just as she was feeling indignant in her heart, Shi Mo's voice came from the side, "Get out of the car."
Just as Fang Mo'er got out of the car, Shi Mo took a step forward, grabbed her hand and walked forward.
Before Fang Mo'er could react, she had already subconsciously followed him.
When they reached the elevator, Fang Mo'er finally reacted, "How did you know it was me?"
The man took off her mask.
Sure enough, when he saw that exquisite face, Shi Mo smiled and said, "You're my wife, how could I not recognize you?"
Fang Mo'er was stunned.
After exiting the elevator, she followed Shi Mo to the private room at the back.
She could not help but hear a voice, "Fang Mo'er!"
Fang Mo'er turned around and saw Chu Xiao following beside her cousin, Mu Ye. She was extending her hand and pointing in Fang Mo'er's direction in disbelief.
Mu Ye also looked over and frowned.
At the moment, Fang Mo'er was wearing a man's outfit and a hat while holding on to Shi Mo's hand tightly.
Chu Xiao could not help but take a step forward. At first, she had thought that she had been mistaken, but upon closer inspection, she realized that it was really her.
This was Fang Mo'er, the person who had been pestering her third cousin previously.
Now, she was actually disguised as a man and acting intimately with another man.
"I was wondering how you could suddenly become a female lead, but it turns out that you've just hooked up with another man."
It looked like she was actually catering to the perverted tastes of men.
It appeared to be that Fang Mo'er was doing whatever she could to gain resources.
Fang Mo'er, "…"
Chapter 119: So Ugly Without Makeup
Shi Mo's expression darkened.
Mu Ye immediately reprimanded Chu Xiao, "Xiaoxiao! Don't talk nonsense."
"I'm sorry, my cousin is insensible. " Mu Ye said immediately when he saw Shi Mo's expression darkening.
Fang Mo'er glanced at Chu Xiao as if she was an idiot. She then pulled Shi Mo along and continued walking forward.
There was no need to be angry with an idiot. She did not want to lower her status.
Chu Xiao quickly took out her phone and took a photo of Fang Mo'er's back. She then sent it to Bai Rong and Mu Chen.
She also recounted what she had seen.
Mu Ye did not have a good impression of Fang Mo'er.
However, because the Mu family had business dealings with the Shi family, he had told Chu Xiao not to provoke Shi Mo.
Chu Xiao and Mu Ye arrived at the private room.
During dinner, Chu Xiao suddenly said, "Cousin, I watched today's live broadcast. I didn't expect to see you on the program."
She had originally gone to watch Bai Rong and Mu Chen, but she had not expected to see Mu Ye on the program, even going so far as to offer his help to the Veiled Queen. He had taken the Veiled Queen, who was disguised as an old man, to the infirmary.
"Right now, everyone on the Internet is talking about how good the Veiled Queen's acting is. I think if it wasn't for your unexpected interruption, the Veiled Queen would have been exposed. She's not that good at all. The limelight actually overshadowed Sister Rong."
Chu Xiao was indignant. From her point of view, Bai Rong had long been one of them.
"Did you suddenly invite me to dinner just to say this?" Mu Ye said without batting an eyelid.
Chu Xiao hurriedly said, "Cousin, what I want to say is that now that everyone knows that Sister Rong is a member of the Mu family, don't you think that her current status isn't enough? Shouldn't we give her more resources?"
Mu Ye's eyes darkened. "Who asked you to come here today?"

"No, it was my own idea." Chu Xiao tactically concealed her thoughts by sipping some water.
Mu Ye frowned. "I didn't know that you would be so close to an outsider."
Chu Xiao stared at her cousin with her mouth agape.
How could Mu Chen and Bai Rong be considered outsiders?
At the same time.
That night, Bai Rong was camping in the forest with a few cameras set up on the side.
However, the program team still followed the rules strictly, so no one came over to help.
The punishment this time was mainly to show Bai Rong in a sorry state. Naturally, it had to be as realistic as possible.
Bai Rong was sleeping alone in the tent, so she was extremely afraid.
Even though there were people from the program team guarding her, she still did not dare to sleep.
She took out her phone and found a message from Chu Xiao.
She opened it and saw that Fang Mo'er was wearing a male outfit. She was holding onto the man's arm as she walked into the luxurious restaurant.
Bai Rong, who was hiding in the tent, suddenly widened her eyes.
Chu Xiao said, "Sister Rong, I knew it. Fang Mo'er must have resorted to using some dirty tricks. Now, this has completely confirmed my guess! Fang Mo'er's habit of disguising herself to cater to a client. She really dares to do anything. Such a person is really not worthy to be compared to you."
Bai Rong sneered on the inside. She had not expected Fang Mo'er to only look pure on the surface. She did not know what kind of abuse she was secretly willing to endure.
Perhaps she would be used and tossed away very soon.
She quickly replied: "Have you sent the photo to Mu Chen?"
Chu Xiao replied, "Yes, I did."
Bai Rong replied, "That's good."
Strictly speaking, Mu Chen was not Chu Xiao's real cousin. However, Mu Chen and Bai Rong treated Chu Xiao quite well, causing Chu Xiao to be even closer to Mu Chen than Mu Ye.
However, Chu Xiao said aggrievedly, "However, regarding the resources, you should talk to my eldest cousin personally. He doesn't want me to ask about such things."
A hint of disappointment flashed across Bai Rong's face, but she still said, "It's alright."
At the same time, Mu Chen also scoffed when he saw the photo of Fang Mo'er dressed in men's clothing.
Straight to the point, when compared to the kind-hearted Bai Rong, Fang Mo'er was nothing to him.
The next day.
Bai Rong came out of the tent. Her hair was disheveled and she had not had the chance to put on any makeup.
Therefore, when she came out, she did not look very attractive.
After the program team had finished filming the scene, the punishment had come to an end.
Mu Chen had not expected to see Bai Rong look so unattractive. He was momentarily stunned.
Then, he walked over and said with concern, "I allowed to you suffer."
Bai Rong's exquisite makeup from last night was gone.
One could see that the original complexion underneath the makeup was not very good.
It was the first time that Mu Chen realized that Bai Rong was only a beauty when she wore makeup.
After removing the makeup, she looked very ordinary.
At the very least, her charm had been reduced by half.
However, Mu Chen thought, which beauty could withstand being without makeup?
Perhaps Fang Mo'er would look even more miserable without makeup.
After consoling himself in this way, Mu Chen was relieved.
"Brother Mu Chen, am I very ugly now?"
"No, you're not ugly! In my heart, you're the most beautiful."
Hearing this, Bai Rong put away the uneasiness in her heart and quickly ran to the dressing room to freshen up. Only when she emerged, was she beautiful again.
Chapter 120: The Treatment of People
In the past few days, the music video for the movie's theme song was finally released on various media platforms.
It was more like a trailer for the movie, rather than a music video.
Along with the Veiled Queen's moving singing voice in the trailer, various scenes of Fang Mo'er and Lang Qi had been edited in.
As Bai Rong's scenes were edited out, the main story now revolved around the male and female lead.
In the video, Fang Mo'er and Lang Qi were like a couple. In addition, Fang Mo'er's acting skills were on point.
Whenever she was acting with Lang Qi, Lang Qi did not overshadow her at all.
This surprised the netizens.
However, Lang Qi's fans were still full of malice towards Fang Mo'er.
"Although Fang Mo'er's amateur level is too low, and is bringing down Lang Qi's level, I'll let you go on account of your good looks."
"I'm here to see Bai Rong. Why are there so few scenes of Bai Rong? Did someone cut them out?"
"What's so good about a newcomer wannabe?"
"I'm here to see Brother Lang Qi. Fang Mo'er has benefited a lot this time. She's using the popularity of this movie to rise to the top. But, what right does she have to be given the female lead role?"
Lang Qi's fans felt that Fang Mo'er was not worthy of acting with Lang Qi.
Bai Rong's fans felt that Fang Mo'er was relying on her ability to flatter and bully others. It seemed that Bai Rong was so soft that was being bullied. She was clearly a star, yet she still had to give way to a newcomer. In the end, the scenes she had acted in had all been cut down to a very small number.
In the morning, Fang Mo'er was a little depressed when she saw the comments of the netizens.
Recently, the movie's release had already been scheduled.

It was expected to be officially released in a week's time, just after the broadcast of the variety show "Celebrities' Challenge."
Within the next few days, as the female lead, Fang Mo'er had to cooperate with the various promotions for the movie.
At the promotional event today, Bai Rong had deliberately worn the same color dress as Fang Mo'er.
Two pure white figures stood together.
One was sweet and charming while the other was mature and flamboyant. It was hard to tell who was more like the female lead.
"May I ask, what memorable experience was there for you during the filming process?" The reporter asked.
Bai Rong smiled gently at the camera. "There were a few times when there were some dangerous situations, but it has been deeply etched in my memory now. Everyone knows that I never used a stand-in during filming. There was once when I was feeding a tiger, I was chased by the tiger and almost got bitten. There was also one time when I fell off my horse and was hospitalized for a few days. Everyone knows about this."
Bai Rong kept on recounting the various dangers she had faced during the production. Coupled with her inspirational description of the events, she came across as a person who would persevere no matter how difficult it was.
In an instant, she presented herself in the image of a dedicated person.
When the reporters questioned Fang Mo'er later, What Fang Mo'er wanted to say, had already been said. She had no choice but to repeat the same words. She had been chased by a tiger and been shot at, a few times. She had also fallen off her horse…"
Fang Mo'er's words were basically the same as Bai Rong's.
In fact, the one who had had to face the most danger had been Fang Mo'er. She had climbed over a wall and then had to jump off the wall without any protection. She was then caught by the male lead, so the two of them had to look at each other affectionately.
If they had not been careful, she would have broken her legs.
Bai Rong had only been frightened when the horse had suddenly started running and thrown her off.
On the other hand, Fang Mo'er had ridden a crazy horse across the grassland. In the end, she risked being shot by a bullet before she had finally fallen off the horse.
In the show, Fang Mo'er had naturally been the one who had had the most scenes with the tiger.
Bai Rong had only needed to feed the tiger once.
Fang Mo'er had needed to ride on the tiger's back in the show.
However, the reporters did not have any reaction even after hearing that.
In their eyes, Bai Rong was weak and delicate, so it was amazing that she could do that.
However, if Fang Mo'er said the same thing again, it was considered that she was just putting on a show.
Even though Fang Mo'er had truly experienced it, the people who were favored by the media would still be praised no matter what they said.
On the other hand, even though she was the female lead, she was ignored and rarely given any questions to answer.
The publicity event made it seem as if Bai Rong was the female lead.
In the end, Bai Rong had even pushed Fang Mo'er aside and stood in the middle with a sweet smile on her face.
"You're still a newbie now. When everyone sees your acting skills later, you'll be recognized by everyone." After the interview, Lang Qi had consoled Fang Mo'er.
Fang Mo'er wanted to say that she was not in a hurry.
After all, the movie would be released in a few days.
Moreover, it was not like she had not experienced the feeling of being popular before.
That night.
Fang Mo'er was huddled in the hall, having prepared all sorts of snacks and drinks in front of her, as she waited to watch the variety show "Celebrity's Challenge".
At the same time, Xiao Tian and Shen Yue would be watching it together with her.
"Tonight, you will witness how I defeated Bai Rong!" Fang Mo'er said proudly.
The variety show began.
The Veiled Queen had already prepared a delicious dish that looked and tasted good. Compared to the other two guests, the Veiled Queen was practically a chef.
Xiao Tian smiled and said, "Big sister, you are so amazing!"
Shen Yue also said, "It's only understandable that Lang Qi doesn't know how to cook. However, I didn't expect Bai Rong to be such a rookie when it comes to cooking. I'm dying of laughter."
This spoke directly to the hearts of the majority of the audience as well.
