Chapter 316: You Are Asking The Right Person

“Excuse me, Mo Fei, what is your response to the current rumors on the internet that Mu Li’ang is using hype to increase his own value?”

“It’s complete nonsense!” In the interview video, when Mo Fei heard this question, her originally calm face changed slightly. Although the change was not obvious, Yang Yi could still distinguish it. Mo Fei was angry!

When Mo Fei was angry, she still had a cold expression on her face, but it was different from usual. Her body trembled slightly with excitement, and her voice raised by a tone.

“Mr. Mu Li’ang is extremely talented, and his music works are already classics. Is there any need for him to resort to such lowly means as hype? If he wants to make money through these means, why would he hide his identity? With his creative ability and singing talent, he could easily become a superstar!”

In her excitement, Mo Fei not only defended Yang Yi to the reporters, but also accidentally revealed a lot of information.

Although the reporter’s face couldn’t be seen in the video, it wasn’t difficult to guess that the reporter was already happy in his heart.

Fortunately, Mo Xiaojuan, who was beside her, stopped her from further outbursts in time, and Jin Yingming also used his body to help Mo Fei block the reporters, allowing her and Mo Xiaojuan to hide into the company.

“Everyone, please listen to me for a moment.” Jin Yingming could also be said to be a die-hard fan of Yang Yi, but he was more matured and rational. He skillfully responded to the reporters, “Currently, there are many people with ulterior motives on the media and the internet who are discrediting Mo Fei and Mr. Mu Li’ang’s works. Everyone here is a person of insight, and I hope everyone can see the truth and provide a fair report.”

“Mo Fei’s singing skills and Mr. Mu Li’ang’s creative talent are beyond doubt. Although the two songs released cannot prove anything, let’s be honest, hasn’t ‘Across the Ocean to See You’ moved everyone? Hasn’t ‘The Initial Dream’ given everyone even a little bit of encouragement? If it has, please give this album some faith and don’t believe in rumors. As for the other ten songs that Mo Fei and Mr. Mu Li’ang have collaborated on, I can only say they will not disappoint!” Jin Yingming spoke calmly and eloquently, which was more effective than Mo Fei’s defense.

Yang Yi only learned that Mo Fei had suffered these grievances when he was reading some news on his computer. The previous night, Mo Fei had downplayed many of these issues when he tried to console her, intentionally avoiding the heavier details to spare him from unnecessary worries.

“This silly woman!” Yang Yi shook his head gently.

Of course, Yang Yi was also helpless against the water army on the internet. He didn’t have any extraordinary abilities, so he couldn’t trace their identities through the internet and eliminate those who were smearing Mo Fei and himself.

There was also the hidden mastermind behind the scenes. Even the people from Tian Mei couldn’t find the target. Yang Yi certainly didn’t have such a heavenly ability.

But Yang Yi wouldn’t just sit idly by like this. Mo Fei has been wronged. As her man, Yang Yi must help her out of this predicament!

So Yang Yi found Chen Yijie’s phone number and dialed it. Although the two of them didn’t get in touch often, sometimes Chen Yijie would also call to greet and show concern, maintaining a good relationship, after all, there would always be a day when they cooperate again.

“Mr. Yang…” Chen Yijie’s phone was quickly connected, and his somewhat surprised voice came from the other end. With Yang Yi’s personality, he rarely took the initiative to call him.

……

Christmas quietly arrived. Because the Chinese nation was prosperous in this world, with strong national self-confidence, and there were currently no unscrupulous businessmen who excessively hype the concept of Christmas, the atmosphere of this holiday in the country was not very strong.

However, because Mo Fei was born and raised in the United States, and Xixi has always been talking about hanging socks by the bed and waiting for Santa Claus to bring her gifts, Yang Yi still made preparation early and prepared a small Christmas party for them.

Compared to before, this party was much more lively, no longer just their family. Mo Xiajuan and Xiao Ai also received invitations. Yang Huan, Guo Ziyi, and Ding Xiang, the trio, were even more naturally invited. Du Yuanlei, as well as the cameraman Wang Chao and the lead actress Qin Wen from the crew were also invited to come.

On the morning of Christmas Eve, after Yang Yi sent Xixi to kindergarten, he drove to pick up the pre-ordered small fir tree. The Tyrant Wolf pickup truck was so convenient, with a small open-top cargo bed at the back that could carry items easily.

“Wow, big brother, is this the Christmas tree you told sister-in-law about?” Yang Huan curiously ran over to watch, and she brought Ding Xiang along. The two of them helped Yang Yi move the small fir tree in.

“Now it can only be considered a tree, not a Christmas tree,” Yang Yi habitually directed Yang Huan. “Huanhuan, go to the car and help me move that box of colored lights in!”

“Okay!” Yang Huan responded quickly.

“I’ll help Huanhuan.” Ding Xiang was also very diligent.

Yang Yi wasn’t idle either. With great strength, he carried a box of beer and a box of soda in one go. There were also some other accessories, cookies, and snack in the car. It took three of them two rounds to finish moving everything.

“Come and take a look. I’ll teach you how to decorate the Christmas tree,” Yang Yi invited with a smile.

He taught them some simple techniques and then handed everything to the two young ladies, who were even more interested than him. He let them unleash their imagination to decorate the fir tree with colorful lights, silver ribbons, red plastic Christmas fruits, candy canes, bells, and bows to make it a colorful Christmas.

After all, they were girls, Yang Huan and Ding Xiang were very careful regarding these decorations. The two of them discussed how to match them while gesturing to hang up the decoration, their laughter filling the air.

Of course, Yang Yi wasn’t idle either. He arranged a ready-made Christmas wreath on the floor-to-ceiling glass window and pasted white snowflake paper cutouts. Jiangcheng, located in the south, rarely snows in winter. Even if it did snow, it was just a few scattered snowflakes that quickly disappeared once they touched the ground. Only through these decorations can a special Christmas atmosphere be created.

After Yang Huan and Ding Xiang finished arranging, they couldn’t wait to plug in the power and see the effects. After powering on, the Christmas tree’s small colored lights flickered, and the decorations on it reflected a colorful glow, making the two young ladies couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement.

“This is the most beautiful Christmas tree in the world!” With a sense of achievement in her hard work, Yang Huan wave her hand boldly and made a bold statement. Ding Xiang covered her mouth and chuckled on the side, but she couldn’t help nodding her head.

” Big Brother Yang, do you think these things hanging on the tree are just for good looks? Or is there any significance?” Ding Xiang pointed at the decorations on the tree and asked curiously.

“You’re asking the right person!” Yang Yi smiled confidently. He had specifically looked up a lot of information for this Christmas event.

“You see that star at the top of the tree, it symbolizes the Star of Bethlehem. According to legend, when Jesus was born in a manger in Bethlehem, it was this star that illuminated the morning of the city!”

“And look at this colorful ball, it’s similar to an apple. It symbolizes the abundance of the earthly paradise, the Garden of Eden.”

“This bow symbolizes connection, signifying that we are all closely connected by God’s eternal love.”

“And then there’s this bell, which represents the bells in the hands of the shepherd. The lost lamb can follow the sound back to the shepherd’s side, and it also carries the beautiful wish that those lost in this world can find their ways back to God, the Good Shepherd, by following His call…”

Yang Yi talked eloquently, looking like an old scholar with a wealth of knowledge.

“Big Brother, when did you start believing in Christianity? Didn’t you not believe in anyting?” Yang Huan looked at him pretending and couldn’t help but interrupt.

“Well, I don’t believe in religion. I read extensively and naturally know a lot,” Yang Yi said awkwardly, feeling a bit embarrassed, “Big Brother is leading by example, encouraging you to read more too, understand?”
