Transmigrating: I Married the Male Protagonist’s Uncle Chapter 1043 - Untitled

Chapter 1043: Untitled

Gu Shen suddenly felt very annoyed. When he had first met her, he had not felt that she was this annoying. Subsequently, he had found her more and more annoying. Until now, whenever she spoke, he would feel his head ache. He grunted casually in response. “I understand. When I see Third Uncle, I’ll definitely bring up this matter to him.”
“Ah Shen, Ah Shen.” When Luo Xin looked at the runway, her eyes suddenly widened in disbelief. She tugged at Gu Shen and asked, “Is that person your Third Uncle?”
She had only seen the high and mighty Third Master of the capital once. It was rumored that his face had been disfigured due to an explosion, and he was bound to a wheelchair. He was cantankerous and cruel. However, that man she had seen was superior as he looked down on the world and had the bearing of a celestial being. Just one look at him and one could never forget him again.
At that moment, she felt that this man was truly the man she wanted. Compared to him, Gu Shen was worlds apart. There was no comparison to be made.
However, he…
Why would he show up here?
“Third Uncle.” Gu Shen had seen him too, but he wasn’t as surprised as Luo Xin. His eyes darkened as he looked in Ling Sheng’s direction. Third Uncle must have appeared here because of Ling Sheng. However, he wasn’t needed at this press launch!
The moment Jun Shiyan walked out, he attracted the gazes of everyone present. The man was really too eye-catching and his aura was too astonishing. He was like an emperor who had suddenly descended. He was cold and noble, making one want to submit to him without a fight from within their hearts.
The famous celebrities present were all whispering to one another. Exactly who was this man who had suddenly appeared? If there was such a person in the entertainment circle, with his looks and temperament, he definitely wouldn’t be buried. Even a fool would know that as long as this man entered the entertainment circle, he would be able to attract countless fans with just his looks alone and become a superstar.
The celebrities from Hollywood asked the celebrities in the Chinese entertainment circle, and the Chinese celebrities asked among themselves. Exactly who was the man on the runway? They were a little daunted inwardly. If this man entered the entertainment circle, how much resources and glory would he take away from them?!
“Ahhhh…” Shi Lingyu could not help but cover her mouth as she screamed like a groundhog while looking at the man. “Sheng Sheng, your neighbor! If your neighbor enters the entertainment circle, no one else can win! I approve!”
Yu Bei reached out and pulled her to his side. He gritted his teeth. “How thirsty[1] are you? I’ll feed you.”
Shi Lingyu pinched him. “Very! I’m so thirsty!”
Ling Sheng laughed out loud. She even snatched the untouched water in front of Su Yi and Lu Yubai and passed it to him. In a low voice, she teased him. “Brother Bei, here you go.”
Shi Lingyu’s face flushed as she let out a snort. Upon seeing the duo working together, she rolled her eyes at them and said with a straight face, “Beautiful men are meant to be admired, all right? As the saying goes, one can only look at them from afar but not touch them. What do you guys know? Besides liking the neighbor’s face, I also like my Old Huo!”
Hadn’t he known all along? What was he being jealous about?
Yu Bei didn’t dare to offend his girlfriend, so he vented his anger on Ling Sheng. “Ling Sheng, look at your man! He’s out to attract bees and butterflies[2]. Aren’t you going to control him?”
Ling Sheng let out a low cough. “I think it’s fine. Only this can prove a person’s charm, right? Why don’t you talk about your own ‘wife’ fans?”
Nowadays, as long as one was a male celebrity, who didn’t have a ‘wife’ fan? Not to mention someone as handsome as Yu Bei, even the most ordinary 18th-tier[3] internet celebrity with a slim face and a smooth, snake-like face had many ‘wife’ fans.
“My ‘wife’ fans? She even has ‘husband’ fans! Why didn’t you say anything about her?” Yu Bei’s jealousy went to his head. He was angry.
“That can’t be helped. Unless the two of you quit the entertainment circle, don’t worry about such a trivial matter.” Ling Sheng beamed and ignored them afterward. Her big eyes were full of stars as she looked at the man on the stage.
Why was her man so good-looking? So good-looking, eh!
Yu Bei said, “Ling Sheng, wait and see. When your man gains ‘wife’ fans everywhere and they are always whining about wanting to sleep with him every day, I’ll see if you’ll get jealous!”
Shi Lingyu stopped him from saying anything and coaxed her jealous boyfriend. “Okay, all right. I’m just admiring a handsome man. You’re still the person I like the most. You’re the most handsome in my heart.”
Ling Sheng held back her laughter and leaned over. She copied Shi Lingyu. “You’re the most handsome in my heart.”
Yu Bei glared at her. Could he kick her into the air?
Su Yi said, “Be quiet and watch the show. Everyone’s watching us!”
Ling Sheng only turned her head around to take a look. She didn’t know why it was so coincidental, but she happened to meet Gu Shen’s eyes. She frowned in distaste, and the look in her eyes turned cold abruptly. She hurriedly retracted her gaze. Why was he here too?
Gu Shen only felt that cold gaze stab into his heart mercilessly like a knife. Fury welled up in his heart just when he heard Luo Xin ask him why his Third Uncle had come. His tone was stiff with impatience. “My Third Uncle has a very good relationship with Auntie Nangong.”
Luo Xin knew this. Gu Shen only knew Nangong Lengyu because of his Third Uncle as well. That was why he had had the chance to help her pull strings previously. However, she still didn’t understand. “Given your Third Uncle’s status, no matter how good their relationship is, he shouldn’t need to go to the extent of being a model walking on the runway.”
She wasn’t content about losing to that little b*tch Ling Sheng regarding the endorsement deal of L-Star. However, Ling Sheng’s current status could only make her hate that she had been born in the wrong family. A Best Actor father, Best Actress mother, the Huo Family, and the Nangong Family—when singled out, which one of these existences did not make people jealous?
What right did a person like Ling Sheng have to possess these?
Gu Shen only smiled coldly and stopped speaking. When he looked over once more, he saw that Third Uncle had already left the stage.
Then, the crowd screamed again. The person walking up the stage turned out to be Huo Ci.
The guests present didn’t recognize Jun Shiyan, but Huo Ci, be it domestic or foreign celebrities, they still more or less knew him even if they hadn’t interacted with each other before. This was especially so after he had been revealed to be Nangong Lengyu’s first love and that they even had a child together. How could anyone not know of him?
Besides, the international superstars invited to this place had a pretty good relationship with Nangong Lengyu. She hadn’t officially dated in so many years, so how could they not make an effort to understand who this first love—who had popped up all of a sudden—was?
When Huo Ci went on stage, Shi Lingyu was extremely thrilled. She tugged at Ling Sheng’s arm and said, “Ahhh! Today is also a day to scream for my God Ci’s beauty! How can he be so handsome?! Sheng Sheng, I also want to see the neighbor’s sleeping face every day when I wake up. I want to see my God Ci’s magnificent beauty every day when I go out.”
She had already become a lemon spirit[4]. Sheng Sheng was really too blessed. Both her boyfriend and father were rare ‘beauties’ in the world. Mere jealousy wasn’t enough to express the current agitation in her heart.

[2] Means that he’s going around attracting the attention of the opposite sex.
