Vivian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but this kind of refusal was just … a simple refusal. She considered the possibility that some people might notice what happened here, and some gossip would spread in the community.
Sometimes, people had to admire how gossipy others were. It was just a very ordinary thing, but it would gradually deviate from the truth under the spread of some "enthusiastic" people.
It was like a very famous joke. A group of soldiers from different places were marching at night, and the person running at the front ordered, "Flashlights are not allowed!"
Using flashlights in the dark would expose themselves, so there was no light source during a secret march at night.
In the end, they were exposed because the people at the back of the team were recklessly using the lights to illuminate the way. When their instructor asked the people who were using the light source to hurry along and why they didn't obey the order, their answers were unexpected.
"No urination or defecation!"
Accents, coupled with subjective conjectures and embellishments, could easily turn "a handsome young man spent a night at the divorced Wei Xuan's house" into "Wei Xuan found a young gigolo from god knows where and they are already living together!"
And it developed into a somewhat malicious "It is said that Vivian sells her body to support her family's expenses. Think about it, how can a woman live in such a community and enjoy the quality of service here? She must have used dirty means!"
This was also the reason why political leaders did not communicate with each other through third parties. Regardless of whether they were on opposite sides, they would talk over the phone or even meet in person to ensure that they could clearly understand each other's attitudes and decisions.
Vivian was worried that people would soon spread the rumor that she had a "next husband". This was just a woman's instinct to protect herself, but she quickly dismissed this idea due to the consideration of her safety. She acquiesced to Lynch's request.
"I'll tidy up the guest room …"
Lin Qi nodded. Then, he turned on the TV and watched the evening program.
9: 30. This was the best time of the day in the Federation. In the past, because people worked late, the capitalists would require people to get off work after 7: 00. Therefore, when people returned home, had something to eat, and tidied themselves up, it was almost 9: 00.
After working hard for a day, the workers finally had time to relax. They would choose to relax on cheap TV entertainment, so this time was also the peak of the viewership.
As for now, perhaps after a day of being dispirited, people finally regained some energy. The number of viewers was still very high.
The state television station happened to be broadcasting the Three Scumbags' talk show. This was a popular political talk show. From the reactions of the people present, the Three Scumbags' performance was not bad.
"… As far as I know, you guys have always been doing professional men's football commentary. Why did you suddenly think of coming to our show? Are you changing careers?"
As long as the money was in place, there was nothing that couldn't be settled. In addition, the person behind this matter, the host of the show, was full of smiles and didn't feel like he was going to fight with them.
This was a very common question. There must be a reason why someone had suddenly cut the queue to appear on the show. At this time, they could slightly make their position clear. For example, they could not stand certain things and happened to find such a channel.
Or maybe they wanted to try something new, from a sports commentator to a guest or even host of a talk show.
There was a lot of content that could be answered. While arousing the interest of the audience, they could introduce themselves and explain their position. This was the most basic question and answer. In the past, they had never made a mistake, but this time was clearly different.
The second commentator, who was sitting in the middle, raised his hand. Just this action alone made people feel that it was inexplicably funny. An adult raised his hand like a child in class. His expression was serious and serious as if he was preparing to do something great.
You couldn't tell what was funny about him, but you would find it inexplicably funny, and even laugh.
"Choose me, I can answer this question!"
He made a serious request, and the host could only nod.
The microphone was handed over to the second commentator, who directly fired a shot at the host's face. "Those who know us know very well that we like money very much. Someone paid us to comment, and they don't mind us telling the truth, so we are here."
The host's face was blank after being shot. She even changed her posture and looked at the director below the stage. Was this considered a broadcast accident?
In the process of the live broadcast, they talked about "being invited to the show for money." This was a fact that almost everyone avoided. Regardless of whether the guests really did it or not, they tried their best to avoid and downplay this issue.
This made people feel that their performance on the show was more about money than from a neutral point of view, although they had never been neutral.
However, this was the first time that guests like the three b * stards had said that they were invited to the show for money without hesitation. The host looked at the director, indicating that she wanted him to cut in the commercials as soon as possible and solve their "script" problem.
However, the director didn't seem to do that. He didn't give the host any response, and the host had no choice but to continue to face this hellish situation.
She raised her eyebrows and quickly glanced at the cue card in her hand. Then, she crushed it into a ball and held it in her hand. This thing was useless.
Relying on her many years of hosting experience, she followed the other party's words. "Then it must be a lot of money?"
At this time, it wasn't a good time to change the topic. In fact, the audience was sometimes very careless, but sometimes they were very sensitive.
Just as the second commentator was about to nod, the third commentator covered his mouth. The first commentator struggled to snatch the microphone back from the second commentator.
He even tidied his messy hair and said very seriously, "Just now, my friend made a joke …"
The originally somewhat serious scene turned into a "farce" when the commentator kicked off a shoe during the second kick!
As usual, people who were familiar with the three b * stards pointed at the television and told their friends about the past of these b * stards. Those who met the three b * stards for the first time also began to feel curious about these b * stards.
The corner of the host's mouth twitched. She took the opportunity to turn around and rolled her eyes. She repeated, "A joke?"
The third commentator covered the second commentator's mouth with force as he stretched his neck and looked at the camera with a smile. "Yes, it was a joke. We're here for our ideals!"
The audience's laughter made the serious content less serious. Even at this time, people realized that they were not joking, but it was hard to hate them.
It was not impossible that some people would hate them, but more people still felt that even if they were not liked, they would not deliberately be hated or targeted.
The atmosphere of the show suddenly relaxed. Then, the three b * stards began to unscrupulously criticize the various methods of the governor's candidates. Sometimes, they would also criticize the governor's methods, especially the second commentator, who would always "spill the beans" as he spoke.
At this time, commentator one and commentator three would take the initiative to save the situation. They might make some small movements in a place where everyone could see, or they might not even give him a chance to speak. Their clear stance and likable style were immediately liked by the audience.
"They're very interesting!"
After Wei Xuan had finished decorating the room for Lynch, she came down and stood by the side for a while.
Lynch smiled and nodded. "These three guys have a very unique style. They won't make people hate them so easily. Sometimes, when they go a little overboard, it won't have the opposite effect."
He looked up at Wei Xuan. "Don't stand. Sit and watch. The show has just begun."
Wei Xuan hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.
The two of them sat on the sofa and watched the show. It was a very cheerful show. This was probably the first time that the political news program had changed the program into a serious one, making it more relaxed.
The host was not very used to it at first, but she soon let it go. Sometimes, she would say some harsh words in the audience's exclamations, but the audience soon got used to it.
As long as the words were not too harsh and the content was not malicious, people would eventually forgive and even accept it.
Wei Xuan's laughter from time to time made her feel very relaxed. She had not enjoyed such a simple pleasure like this for a long time. When the show ended, she realized that she was sitting very close to Lynch.
She did not know when she got so close to Lynch, and from the way Lynch was sitting on the sofa, it seemed that he had taken the initiative to come over.
When the show ended, it was already half past ten, which was also the time when people were about to go to bed. At this moment, their eyes met, and the hot breath from their breaths hit each other's faces. A throbbing feeling emerged from the bottom of Wei Xuan's heart.
Lynch looked at her with a smile. She felt that if she did not leave now, there might be some problems.
Just as her thoughts were about to collapse, she stood up, turned around, and took a deep breath. "I've cleaned up the guest room, I …"
She gritted her teeth and quickly left, as if it was torture for her to stay for even a second longer.
Lynch curled his lips, got up and went upstairs. After a simple wash, he lay on the bed.
The house had a central heating system, and the boiler in the basement sent heat to every room. Even if there were no thick quilts and clothes, it would not make people feel cold.
Lynch fell asleep very quickly. He was the kind of person who could fall asleep in a few seconds. This was a very good habit, and sometimes it could help people recover their energy and strength quickly.
He did not know how long he slept, but he suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness.
In the gap under the bedroom door, there was a shadow that blocked the light from outside.
He frowned slightly, and remained in his sleeping position. He reached for the fountain pen that was specially placed on the bedside table, twisted off the cap, and held it in his hand.
It was said that this fountain pen, which cost more than a thousand yuan, had a high-strength and wear-resistant alloy tip. Even if it fell on the table, it would not be deformed. Then, it should be able to pierce a person's chest, right?
The door slowly opened …
