The Entertainment Industry Waits For Our Divorce Chapter 82
The 43rd day — Divorced (1)
The situation caught Lu Lincheng’s fans off guard. After all, they were the ones who always said that others rubbed off on them, but this time, they were accused of rubbing off on someone.
Outrageous!
Go!
Screw him!
Fuck them!
Lu Lincheng’s fans had an advantage in numbers, and Liang Yan’s fans may be smaller in numbers, but they were tenacious in battle. The two fanbases fought until the end of the day, feeling like it wasn’t right if they didn’t fight it out.

Lu Lincheng was reading the comment, “Please, ex-husband, don’t rub off on Liang Yan’s popularity,” when his phone rang suddenly, and Liang Yan’s name appeared on the screen.
He pressed the green button.
Liang Yan could only organize half of her prepared speech when Lu Lincheng answered the call. It caught her by surprise. “Lu — Lu… Lu Lincheng…”
He sounded nonchalant and hummed, “Hmm…”
Liang Yan laughed dryly and said, “Lu Lincheng, please don’t say that we met at the park. I’m afraid it will result in a bloodbath.”
Lu Lincheng let out a light chuckle. “Sure. Let’s just say that I’m rubbing off on your popularity.”
Liang Yan: “..........” What a yin and ying man!
Then, he stopped laughing and said in a cold voice, “Liang Yan, do you really hate to admit it?”
Liang Yan replied, “I don’t want to admit it because we’re already divorced. Both of us know we don’t have anything to do with each other, but the others don’t. If they catch us together, others will assume that we’re having an affair, and it’s not good.”
His face darkened when her words “having an affair” sunk in.
She didn’t receive a reply from Lu Lincheng, so she hung up, her lips pursed.

Even before “Benevolence” started showing, it had grabbed the public’s attention due to Liang Yan’s heroic deed of saving the old lady. Liang Yan’s popularity rose and rose, she was unstoppable. After all, a lady that could do this wouldn’t be too shabby.
As a result of this, Jiang Mu gave Liang Yan another contract.
It was an invitation to a variety show — A hundred heartbeats a day.
When Liang Yan saw the name of the show, she was stupefied. She recalled watching a variety show about imaginary celebrity husband and wife.
Why the hell did Jiang Mu give her this variety show? To fall in love? She just got divorced. This was insane!
Jiang Mu immediately explained, “It’s not for you to fall in love, but to be a love observer.”
A hundred heartbeats a day was a love observation variety show featuring men and women on blind dates. Four celebrities were tasked to observe and interpret the exchanges and love signals between the female and male guests, then conveying to the audience the new generation’s view on love.
Liang Yan’s role in “Benevolence,” wasn’t that heavy, so she could take the time to record on the variety show if she wasn’t in the Benevolence set. She was in the most important part of her career at the moment, so exposure was crucial for her.
She read the show's contract, contemplating the theme, too. Then, she shook her head. “I haven’t fallen in love myself, and how can I advise and critique other’s view of love?”
Jiang Mu rebutted, “Don’t say that. Between the guests invited by the program.”
Liang Yan: "What??"
Jiang Mu answered, “Because you were once married to the dream man of nine hundred million girls — Lu Lincheng.”
Liang Yan: ".................."
Not long after, the variety show announced the official celebrity lineup of the heartbeat observers — two men and two women. The male observers were the expert Huang Xiyan, and the tough but warm Li Kai. And the female observers were the teenage idol Fan Chuchu, and the high-quality artist, Liang Yan who the central party praised.
When Liang Yan appeared on the official line-up, a lot of netizens thought that the show was shameless, capitalizing on Liang Yan. Everyone knew that Liang Yan was Lu Lincheng’s ex-wife! So, the point of inviting her as an observer was to let her tell everyone on the show about her past relationship with Lu Lincheng? Her experiences? How did he dump her? Or maybe it was to share her divorced tips? Or would she teach the female audiences on how to catch Lu Lincheng?
It would be best if she taught the female viewers from all around the country how to catch Lu Lincheng.
They had divorced now, but it didn’t change the fact that Liang Yan once slept with Lu Lincheng and that her name was placed on Lu Lincheng’s household registry book.

Lu Lincheng and Liang Yan’s fans have torn their face and aggressively quarreled non-stop recently —
[Last warning to certain netizens, don’t ever mention Mr. Lu Lincheng’s name under Ms. Liang’s news ever again!]
Melon-eating citizens:
[Hahahahaha… Some fans are issuing a warning, but I’m sure that if Liang Yan really makes the book!]
Liang Yan watched all these things happening with a sad face.
If only she knew how she ended up with Lu Lincheng.
Before “Benevolence” started airing, “A hundred heartbeats a day,” recorded the program's first phase. The program team had finished editing the video when the male and female amateur guests met for the first time. Their task as heartbeat observers was to sit and watch the video while making comments on the interaction of the male and female guests in the show.
