The host and guests of the program had already arrived. Nan Yu put away her phone and greeted everyone politely.
It was Nan Yu's first time participating in a live - broadcast program, and it was a talk - show type. Naturally, she felt a bit nervous.
Before the recording started, the host was still going through the script with her and comforting her that all the questions were pre - prepared, so there wouldn't be any major recording accidents.
The host smiled at her. "Don't worry. We're all professionals. Even if something unexpected happens, we'll help you smooth it over."
What Nan Yu was actually worried about was something else. "Will the live - broadcast program be paused midway?"
"Basically not, except for irresistible factors," the host replied.
"What counts as irresistible factors?"
"Natural disasters like mountain floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, or sudden power outages, equipment malfunctions, etc."
Knowing that this was her first time in a live - broadcast program, the host patiently explained, "But don't worry. As I said before, we're professionals."
That meant the situations mentioned before were highly unlikely to happen.
Getting this answer, Nan Yu felt much more at ease.
Although she didn't know the probability of Shen Suhai interrupting the program recording midway, it was always better to be cautious.
After everything was ready, the host nodded at the camera. All departments immediately got ready, and the program was about to go live.
Sitting on the guest sofa, Nan Yu was generous and smiled as she accepted the host's interview.
At first, the host was worried that she would be too nervous, but obviously, it was an over - concern. Nan Yu had strong on - the - spot performance ability. She answered every question professionally, especially when it came to the inspiration for music. She was eloquent and full of energy.
The host said with a smile, "I didn't expect Miss Nan to have such an interesting understanding of music. It seems that the ratings of our program this time will increase a lot."
"Then please send me a replay after the program is over. I'd like to check if I said anything wrong. Correct it if there is, and encourage myself if there isn't," Nan Yu said with a smile.
...
As the interview was coming to an end, the host asked, "Miss Nan, could you share something about your recent life? I'm sure our fans would like to know more about your daily life."
This was a pre - determined question.
Nan Yu smiled slightly. First, she nodded at the host, then looked at the camera. "There's really a happy event to share with you recently."
The host said, "Oh? Do tell."
Nan Yu said with a smile, "I have a friend who is about to have a baby soon. I'm happy for her and hope she can have a safe delivery."
At this moment, the big screen played the video that Nan Yu had provided to the program in advance.
In the video, Wen Ying smiled at the camera, lowered her head and touched her belly, looking extremely happy.
The host said, "Sure enough, she's a pregnant woman. It seems she's about to give birth soon."
Nan Yu said, "If nothing goes wrong, this month is her due date. The Shen family is about to have a new member."
The host joked with a smile and asked which Shen family it was.
Nan Yu blinked and pretended to be cute. "In the whole Jiangcheng, which other Shen family could it be?"
...
At this moment in the Shen family.
A subordinate tremblingly handed his phone to Shen Suhai. The live - broadcast of the program that Nan Yu was on was playing on the screen.
Shen Suhai's face was ashen throughout. Especially when he saw Wen Ying appear on the screen, he gritted his teeth.
When he heard her say in a light - hearted tone, "In the whole Jiangcheng, which other Shen family could it be?", his face turned as black as coal. He raised his hand and smashed the phone, and swept the teacup on the table to the ground.
The sound of the porcelain shattering was extremely sharp. The subordinates immediately lowered their heads and didn't dare to make a sound.
Shen Suhai was so angry that he had trouble breathing. "Are you all dead? Immediately find someone to stop the program! The video is not allowed to be leaked!"
He was holding onto the lucky thought that not many people were watching the live - broadcast and wanted to minimize the impact.
He must not let the outside world know that there was a scandal of an unwed pregnancy in the Shen family!
The subordinate answered and went out. He came back less than five minutes later, with a hesitant expression on his face.
The broken porcelain on the ground had already been cleaned up by the nanny, and a new tea set had been replaced.
Shen Suhai was about to take a sip of tea. "Have you solved it?"
"... No," the subordinate lowered his head even more. "The investor of the program... doesn't allow it to be withdrawn."
"What kind of bullshit investor?"
Hearing the answer, Shen Suhai was so angry that he coughed madly. "In this Jiangcheng, which investor is meddling so much!"
The subordinate looked embarrassed. He leaned closer and whispered a name. Shen Suhai immediately tightened his grip on the teacup. Blue veins popped out on his old hand, and his expression became even more ferocious.
...
The program was successfully recorded.
Just after the recording, Nan Yu didn't know that the program had almost been abruptly stopped. The entire studio was extremely peaceful and quiet.
She stood up from the sofa and thanked the host, the director, and other staff of the program.
The host praised her for her excellent on - the - spot performance and her fearlessness. "If possible, I hope every interview can have a guest like Miss Nan."
Nan Yu said with a smile, "Then please invite me more often. I'd like to show my face more and ride on the popularity of your program."
This program wasn't very popular before. It was only recently that it had invited several popular guests, which had increased its ratings.
Inviting Nan Yu was also to raise the status of the program.
Nan Yu's humble and sincere attitude really touched the program staff. The director immediately bowed and thanked her.
After some pleasantries, Nan Yu finally had time to take out her phone.
Sure enough, Wen Ying had sent her a message, saying that Shen Yanche had found her. Judging from the words, they should be talking about getting married.
After reading the message, Nan Yu let out a sigh of relief and showed a faint smile.
Sure enough, she hadn't gambled wrong.
Once the program was broadcast, the Shen family would definitely try to minimize the loss first. The scandal of an unwed pregnancy in the Shen family must not be exposed.
According to Shen Suhai's style, he should send someone to silence Wen Ying first.
But Wen Ying was about to give birth. Even if they wanted to do something to her, they had to consider the child in her belly.
Moreover, Shen Yanche would also protect this child.
In this way, the Shen family would never use the method of "killing to cover up the scandal". Then, there was only one way left -
That was to marry Wen Ying and let her become a legitimate wife of the Shen family and give birth to a child for the Shen family smoothly.
By then, the engagement with Nan Yu would also have to be cancelled.
This was indeed a risky move.
But as long as it succeeded, there would be no more worries.
After saying goodbye to the program staff, Nan Yu had just come out of the building when a car suddenly stopped in front of her.
Two black - suited bodyguards got out of the car and headed straight for Nan Yu. Judging from the car model, they were from the Shen family.
Nan Yu subconsciously took a step back and was about to scream for help when -
