Hence, they only reprimanded Zhao Ying a few times before forgetting about it. Compared to criticizing Zhao Ying, they were clearly more concerned about Xia Wei and Jian Tan, who were on leave!

[Alright, alright! I’m tired of hearing such official apologies. Hurry up and tell me why Jian Tan and Xia Wei didn’t come! ]

[That’s right. Who wants to see you keep apologizing?]

Looking at the two bullet chats that rolled to the top of the live-stream, Zhao Ying could only pretend not to see them. He sighed helplessly in his heart. Then, he readily released Xia Wei’s leave vlog and explained why Jian Tan did not come.

Director Zhao, who was “surrounded” by the netizens’ saliva, was really grateful to Xia Wei for her foresight.

Seeing that the netizens’ emotions were appeased by this video, he heaved a sigh of relief and closed the live-stream that had been temporarily opened.

As for “Xia Wei and Jian Tan”, who instantly rushed to the top of the trending searches, he could only apologize helplessly. With their current popularity and traffic, it would be strange if they did not make it to the trending searches!

“Jian Tan and Xia Wei are on leave!”

“Jian Tan and Xia Wei are both absent from the recording of the fifth episode of [Heartthrob TAJ. The show’s traffic is not as good as the previous episodes!”

“Jian Tan also applied for leave!”

“Zhao Ying apologizes!”

At five minutes past eight in the morning, Xia Wei was woken up punctually by her biological clock. Thinking that today was Saturday, she took out her cell phone and glanced at the [Heartthrob TA] live-stream. Half a minute later, she sat up from the bed and browsed Weibo in confusion!

Looking at the trending searches where she and Jian Tan appeared in pairs, she suddenly had a strange illusion. “Why does this situation look like Jian Tan and 1 have an open relationship? It’s really strange!”

As she thought about these things, she suddenly realized that she seemed to be in a daze. She shook her head, logged out of Weibo, and called her manager!

Manager Wang woke up early today to monitor the popularity of [Heartthrob TA] in real time and observe the changes in Xia Wei’s real-time traffic.

As expected, Xia Wei’s leave caused a huge change in the live-stream traffic of [Heartthrob TA]. It went from an increase in the explosion at the beginning to a cliff-like decline in the past two hours! Of course, this was also thanks to Jian Tan’s absence.

In fact, most of this was thanks to Jian Tan.

Wang Ming was not surprised at all when he received Xia Wei’s call. He just found it strange that Xia Wei’s first question was not about herself, but why did Jian Tan not go too!

“Didn’t his studio explain why he didn’t go? Director Zhao didn’t explain clearly in the live-stream. In the end, he didn’t explain why Jian Tan didn’t go. Do you know the real reason? Is Jian Tan sick? Didn’t Wu Fan tell you?”

Hearing Xia Wei’s machine gun-like questions, Wang Ming felt even stranger. He frowned and asked Xia Wei on the phone, “Can’t you just ask Jian Tan? Don’t you have his number?”

As he spoke, he slowly came back to his senses and continued without any pause, “That’s not right, Xia Wei. Why are you so curious about Jian Tan? Is this the main point now? Shouldn’t you be more concerned about your own matters? You’ve already been on the trending searches for two hours! Indeed, Director Zhao’s show still can’t do without you and Jian Tan!”

On the other end of the phone, Xia Wei was rendered speechless by her manager’s words. She took a deep breath and scratched her smooth long hair in frustration. She slandered silently in her heart, If I could call Jian Tan, you wouldn’t be here now! You talk so much nonsense.

Ever since she rejected Jian Tan’s confession that day, Jian Tan seemed to have disappeared from her world. Sometimes, she could not help but wonder what Jian Tan was doing, but she did not dare to call or send messages. She did not even dare to send some work-related words!

Thinking of her strange behavior over the past few days, Xia Wei sighed helplessly. She was so silent that even Wang Ming, who was on the other end of the cell phone, sensed it. “What’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? If you really want to know why, call and ask. Jian Tan won’t eat you up! I think he’s sick. I already felt that he didn’t look too good when I met him at the company yesterday!”

“You met Jian Tan when you went to Emperor yesterday? Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
