Chapter 15: This Isn’t a Campus Belle—This Is a Joke!
2016 Tiline.
The Silent Separation film set.
Huang Xiaoming stared in shock as the giant sky screen revealed that, just six months after his divorce, he had already found a new girlfriend.
“What… what’s going on here?”
“I don’t even know this Ye Ke!”
“How could I possibly be with her?!”
Beside him, Yang Mi watched him with a knowing smile.
Typical n—all the sa!
Only six months after the divorce, and he’s already moved on? That’s way too fast.
Who knows—maybe he’d already been involved with this Ye Ke before he and Angelababy even split!
Noticing Yang Mi’s smirk, Huang Xiaoming quickly tried to explain:
“Yang Mi, it’s not what you think!”
“Tell … do I still have a chance to get back together with Baby?”
By now, Yang Mi had lost all interest in getting involved in Huang Xiaoming’s ss.
At first, after her own marital struggles, she had felt so sympathy for him.
But now, seeing the potential scandal of him cheating during his marriage, any pity she had vanished.
She replied flatly, “Xiaoming, I really can’t say.”
“You’ll have to figure this out yourself.”
2013 Tiline.
“Dream Live Broadcast” Host Selection Competition.
Ye Ke, fresh out of college, was just an ordinary contestant.
When the giant sky screen revealed that, in the future, she would beco Huang Xiaoming’s girlfriend, she froze in disbelief.
“I—I end up with Huang Xiaoming?!”
“Oh my god, this is unbelievable!”
Then, seeing her own heavily altered, “tech-enhanced” face on the screen, her shock turned to delight.
“I never thought I’d look so good in the future!”
She pulled out a mirror, comparing her current appearance to the one on the screen.
One thought dominated her mind: plastic surgery.
“I need to get work done!”
“But not too much—just so minor tweaks!”
anwhile, the competition’s production team had also noticed the sky screen’s revelation.
The director, ecstatic, exclaid:
“Ye Ke is one of our contestants, right?”
“Pull her out imdiately—let her host the next episode!”
The assistant director dug up Ye Ke’s profile, then hesitated.
“Director… this Ye Ke looks nothing like the one on the screen!”
“Are you sure about this?”
The director grinned.
“Didn’t you see? In the future, she’s Huang Xiaoming’s girlfriend! That’s massive exposure!”
“Even if she looks different now, it’s an easy fix—just have the makeup team put in extra effort!”
The assistant director nodded.
“Understood. I’ll arrange it right away.”
2016 Tiline.
Running Man set.
Deng Chao had been discreetly observing Angelababy’s reaction after the sky screen’s revelation.
To his surprise, she didn’t seem the least bit upset that Huang Xiaoming had moved on so quickly.
Curious, he asked:
“Baby, you don’t seem bothered at all that Huang Xiaoming has a new girlfriend?”
Angelababy chuckled.
“Why should I be?”
“The sky screen called her a ‘campus belle,’ but from a woman’s perspective, her face doesn’t look natural at all.”
Zheng Kai nodded in agreent.
“Exactly!”
“Her face is full of ‘tech enhancents’—definitely not original!”
“Nothing like our Baby, who’s naturally beautiful!”
Chen He, munching on lon seeds, chid in:
“And don’t you think…”
“This Ye Ke looks like a budget version of Baby?”
“Seems like Huang Xiaoming has a very specific type!”
Deng Chao burst out laughing.
“You’re right!”
“Looks like in the future, you’re the one who dumped Huang Xiaoming!”
“And he couldn’t get over you, so he settled for a knockoff!”
Angelababy shook her head, amused.
“Alright, enough comforting .”
“Even though the future divorced Huang Xiaoming, at least it wasn’t ssy.”
“Compared to the other scandals the sky screen exposed… I’d say I got off easy!”
2016 Tiline.
The Silent Separation film set.
Huang Xiaoming kept calling Angelababy, but she never picked up.
With a sigh, he accepted the truth.
Though they had appeared to be the perfect couple, he knew Angelababy was ambitious.
He had wanted her to focus more on family and cut back on work—even arguing when she joined Running Man.
Now, the sky screen had confird that her career would surpass his.
He knew winning her back would be nearly impossible.
As he studied Ye Ke’s face on the screen, he slowly ward to the idea.
“Actually… she’s quite pretty. Exactly my type.”
“And she looks sweet and docile—being with her might not be so bad.”
Then, the sky screen dropped another bombshell:
[Who would’ve thought that less than a month after Huang Xiaoming went public with her…].
[Ye Ke single-handedly turned him into the biggest joke in the entertainnt industry!].
Huang Xiaoming’s face went pale.
“Ye Ke turned into a joke?!”
“What the hell happened?!”
