The President is Being Shameless Again Chapter 308 – Was It Obliviousness… Or Silent Acknowledgement?

Chapter 308: Was It Obliviousness… Or Silent Acknowledgement?

At the very least, she would not be as tired as she was now.

Xu Moyan nodded. She knew what Zheng Yuntong meant.

She returned to her bedroom without a word, but she did not dare to let herself calm down. Sending the video in her phone to her computer, she began to edit it, adding subtitles and background music.

Once she was done with all that, it was already seven.

At first, Xu Moyan wanted to upload the video to Weibo, but when she saw the time, she got a shock. She was about to go make dinner when she saw that her bedroom door was not open, and Zheng Yuntong had already walked in. She was even holding two boxes of traditional pickled vegetable-flavored instant noodles, complete with hot water.

Instant noodles were not healthy, but the fragrance of the additives and flavorings wafted through the air, intensified by the steam from the hot water. As Zheng Yuntong walked in, the smell quickly filled up the whole room.

The thick aroma and the slight sourness of the pickled vegetables really whetted their appetites. Even someone who had just eaten would be tempted to eat another bowl of instant noodles when they smelled this.

“Sorry, I lost track of time, Xu Moyan said with a smile.

“No worries. Besides, it’s not like you’re duty-bound to cook. I just suck at cooking, so you took over the job. You don’t look chipper today, so you don’t have to cook for today. We haven’t eaten instant noodles in a long while, after all, so let’s be unhealthy for once. I added a sausage and a braised egg inside, too.” Zheng Yuntong put the instant noodles on the table and pulled up a chair for herself. Holding up her bowl, she pulled up some noodles with her fork and began to slurp away.

Perhaps it was because Xu Moyan had too much weighing on her mind. She was torn, wondering if she could gather the guts to give Wei Zilin the cake if he returned before the end of the day. If he did not, she would be relieved but also a little dejected.

As a result of her worries, she did not feel hungry even now. Still, the sound of Zheng Yuntong eating her noodles tempted her, and the instant noodles did smell unbelievably good. The slight sourness made her salivate slightly, too.

She ate the aromatic instant noodles that she had not touched for a long time. It was not healthy in the slightest, but it was very tasty, almost hypnotic in how it whetted the appetite. Slowly, her mood began to improve.

As she chatted with Zheng Yuntong, she finished eating the instant noodles.

Zheng Yuntong told her to stay put while she stood up and threw the empty bowls into the garbage bag in the kitchen. Because they had not eaten these noodles for so long, the two of them even drank every drop of the preservatives-filled soup.

Upon returning to the room, Zheng Yuntong sat on the bed as she watched Xu Moyan upload the video from a distance.

Silent Words: Today’s Valentine’s Day, and I hope all of you live happily ever after with your special ones. To all the girls who gathered up the courage to confess today, I wish you the best of luck, and I hope you get the love you want. Last night, my roommate made some homemade chocolates for her boyfriend, and there were some left over, so I made them into a chocolate cake. I was thinking that if you’re not brave enough to give that special person chocolates, perhaps it wouldn’t be too bad to switch it up and give him a chocolate cake instead. If it works, it’s a confession. If it doesn’t, it’s still a tasty treat.

Most guys don’t like sweets, so I didn’t add too much sugar to this chocolate cake. Besides, I used dark chocolate that’s ≥70% cocoa, so it wasn’t sweet to start with. In fact, it’s slightly bitter, so guys should prefer it this way.

Xu Moyan’s fingers paused above the keyboard, and after a moment’s hesitation, she finally, slowly, added another line.

To be honest, I hope my special someone would like this cake too. I wonder if he’ll accept it?

Underneath the text, she had uploaded the recently-completed video.

After Xu Moyan uploaded the post, she turned on Weibo’s mobile app as usual and stared at the phone screen for a while before she refreshed the comments.

Perhaps it was because this post was especially fitting for the occasion today. Even the comments appeared much faster and in greater numbers than usual.

When she clicked into the comment section, she could see her fans’ excited comments.

“It looks so good! I got a boyfriend, and I already gave him some chocolates today. I’ll save the video today and try making it for him tomorrow!”

“Your words made me tear up for some reason, goddess. I really wanna confess to my idol too, but I don’t have the guys, so I’ll give this cake a try.”

“Goddess, for some reason, I feel like you sound really sad when you say that. Does it have to do with the god mentioned last time? Do you plan on confessing too?”

“Good luck, goddess! You’re pretty and great at cooking, so if he rejects you, he must have a problem with his taste!”

“I invited my god out tonight so I can confess to him face to face. Wish me good luck, and gimme a like for support!”

Zheng Yuntong could not help but laugh at the comments. “I don’t think you ever showed your face in any pictures or videos online, right? Why are all your fans so certain that you’re a beauty?”

Xu Moyan did not understand that, either. “I don’t know, maybe it’s because my hands are pretty? But I feel like most beauties don’t have particularly pretty hands.”

Zheng Yuntong held up her hand perfectly solemnly, staring at her five plain and not particularly attractive fingers. “No wonder. I knew it, I do look pretty good.”

“…” Xu Moyan laughed. “Sheesh! You only act so narcissistically around me. Would you say that in front of Shen Zongyi?”

Zheng Yuntong tilted her head back and forth with a smile. “I don’t have to, because he already thinks I look good.”

Xu Moyan, “…”

For some reason, the netizens were scarily accurate in their hunches. Almost all of them believed that she was going to confess with this cake.

The comments were all talking about that, so Xu Moyan stopped scrolling after she read a few. After that, she refreshed the Weibo homepage instead, looking for anything interesting.

As a result, she saw a post from a gossip account called Entertainment Master, famous on Weibo for its tabloid news.

Entertainment Master: #Wei Zilin and Liang Wenyin go to G City for V-Day #On Valentine’s Day, we single dogs wish all you lovers out there end up becoming siblings. Anyway, here’s the scoop! President of Lin Yi, Wei Zilin and the popular beautiful artist Liang Wenyin are staying in the same hotel in G City. In the afternoon, they left the hotel one after the other. According to the No. 1 Paparazzi in the industry, Wei Zilin went to G City for a business trip, so Liang Wenyin going there as well on V-Day means that this could very well be proof of their relationship. Below I’ve attached Wei Zilin and Liang Wenyin’s personal details for the clueless public out there. Wei Zilin’s personal details: link. Liang Wenyin’s personal details: link.

The post was followed by a total of nine photos, with the timestamp clearly written on the bottom right of every photo. Firstly, there was a picture of Wei Zilin bringing his luggage into the hotel earlier on, followed by a picture at noon, not long after Liang Wenyin checking into the hotel with her things. After that, the two of them left the hotel, one after the other, empty-handed.

In the photos, Wei Zilin looked tall and handsome, his good-looking features hidden under a pair of black sunglasses and an emotionless expression. He was wearing a black woolen coat that reached his knees, and his calves, exposed under the coat, were especially long and slender. His icy expression looked even colder in the winter.

Not long after that, Liang Wenyin walked out of the hotel, wearing an ankle-length beige coat that was all the rage this year. It seemed to be made of cashmere, and it looked soft and cozy. She casually wore a belt around her waist, revealing her fair feet, light and nimble.

Liang Wenyin seemed to be keeping a much lower profile than Wei Zilin, her head lowered slightly. She wore a pair of blue shades which made her skin look even fairer. Only someone with fair skin could pull off that shade of sky blue.

The two of them never really appeared in the same photo, but the timestamps on the bottom right of the photos proved that they were together. At the very least, they had stayed in the same hotel on the same day.

Could it really be a coincidence?

The two of them just had to be there today, on Valentine’s Day. Plus, they left the hotel in such quick succession, one after the other, so they had to have met.

Could that… also be a coincidence?

Not long ago, he had just contacted her via WeChat, talking as though nothing had happened. He had even promised to come to her place for soup dumplings. She had thought that the two of them were perfectly fine, but right now, on such a day, this one tabloid post took her completely off-guard.

The comments were full of nothing but well wishes, too.

“Both are gorgeous and capable. They really match.”

“It’s rare for wealthy and handsome guys like him to not go for viral influencers. Such a breath of fresh hair.”

“All of a sudden, I feel like it doesn’t matter who he goes for, as long as it isn’t an internet celeb.”

“He didn’t go for an influencer or a superstar. Instead, he went for someone with actual talent. That’s what I call class, wish you all the best.”

“Their family backgrounds match, and they have their own businesses too. They really do match.”

Xu Moyan could not stand it anymore, her eyes stinging as she turned off the comments.

Wei Zilin had another account on Weibo as the president of Lin Yi, but because he was also Yu Linling, Xu Moyan had only ever checked his Yu Linling account. She had looked at the other account before too, but there was nothing there. It was even emptier than his Yu Linling account.

Neither Wei Zilin nor Liang Wenyin reacted at all to this piece of news.

Was it obliviousness… or silent acknowledgment?

Zheng Yuntong gasped and looked at Xu Moyan. Her reaction told Xu Moyan that she had seen that report as well.
