Chapter 347 The Gossip
Yaya found that there were many interesting things. Her bodyguards told her what the stars and their assistants did every day.
“We have found out who the sugar daddy of that supporting actress is,” one of the bodyguards said with a smile.
Yaya was not sure whether her feeling was right or wrong. It seemed that her bodyguards were… really happy these days?
“Why did you look into her?” Yaya asked.
She thought, “Why did they love gossip and smile so weirdly?”
“… That woman always talks nonsense behind us,” one of the bodyguards said immediately, “We have not told others, but we sent a message to her as a warning lest she spread gossip every day.”
No wonder Zhang Shanshan had not showered her with veiled abuse since yesterday.
Yaya was a beauty who would cause much discussion anywhere. At first, the actresses looked at her with vigilance, for fear that they would be replaced.
After learning that she was Chu Bai’s assistant, they were relieved. When they saw A Miao entering Chu Bai’s car, all kinds of rumors became rife.
“I’ve never seen anyone taking a girl with him during filming,” Zhang Shanshan said behind them.
However, others knew they could not afford to offend Yaya when they found that the director said nothing. Moreover, they saw some strong men following her every day.
Only a newcomer like Zhang Shanshan, who thought she had support, still spread rumors every day.
“That’s good. She is too scared.” During the break, Chu Bai talked with Yaya and laughed. “I have the same act with her these days and she makes a lot of mistakes.”
After a while, he gave Yaya an enigmatic smile and said, “Did your bodyguards send the live broadcast to her?”
“…” Yaya pretended that she did not understand it and changed the subject. “According to her character, she will hate you because of your perfect acting.”
Chu Bai sneered. “How interesting… I hope she will hate me. I am so scared.”
“Do you know who her backer is?” Yaya was not surprised because there was someone who returned from the island around Chu Bai.
“Yes, you will find out about it during the competition.” Chu Bai lay on the sofa casually and said, “He is just a land agent who is not comparable to your family.”
Boring. Yaya lost her interest in an instant. Later, she didn’t bother to look at her when they met.
Zhang Shanshan would not understand that ladies from a rich family would not conspire against her because they looked down upon her.
“There is nothing to be proud of!” Zhang Shanshan was not clever enough, so she took it for granted that Yaya was provoking her.
She pinched her assistant’s arms and said, “I asked you to trip Le Chu’s assistant into giving the information. What do you get?”
Her assistant, a 20-year-old girl, felt wronged and said, “Nothing. He is very faithful to his boss.”
“You are a waste of blood.” Zhang Shanshan took out her mobile phone and browsed the microblog. When she saw Chu Bai and Yaya getting out of the car after a rest, her eyes flashed and she took some pictures secretly.
Her assistant was frightened and said, “Miss. Zhang, we’ve signed the contract that we cannot reveal anything about the cast. You…”
“Shut up!” Zhang Shanshan gave her the cell phone. “When you see them together, you should take pictures. Do you understand?”
Recently, she was upset because she received a video that scared her. She was worried that someone wanted to threaten her. However, there was no movement for a few days.
Zhang Shanshan wondered if Boss Song had secretly solved it. After all, it was bad for him if this video was revealed to the public.
“Let’s start! Action!” the director shouted from over there.
Zhang Shanshan shot her assistant a glare before leaving. “Remember my words. Otherwise, I will fire you.”
“I know, Miss Zhang…” Her assistant nodded, trembling.
Three months later, the cast finished filming. The film editors and special effects crew would be responsible for the shows. Following the work, the director and investors began to promote this movie. Chu Bai, as the supporting actor, was invited to two variety shows.
When the movie was planned to come out on January 1st, a post that involved many pictures appeared on the Internet. Chu Bai and another girl were in the pictures.
“It seems that he was among the cast.” Chu Bai’s fans found out immediately.
“Is she Chu Bai’s girlfriend?” some honest fans said.
However, suddenly a large number of negative comments appeared, slinging mud at them.
“My friends opened a restaurant near their filming location. They said this girl was not Chu Bai’s assistant, but his bed partner.”
“No way? They were filming at that time. How dare they do this so brazenly?”
“Yes, I remember that Chu Bai’s assistant is a man. I met him at the airport.”
“This woman is quite beautiful. I would be very happy if she was my bed partner.”
“Hahaha! I agree with you.”
Soon after, the rumors ran wild. At first, some people said she was his girlfriend. Then, they said that it was a sex trade. Even someone said she was a prostitute.
“You! Come here!”
“Ow, Mom, my ears.” Chu Bai was pulled to the house of the Shen family by Ling Lang and his mouth was contorted.
A Miao stood up immediately and said, “What’s the matter?”
“Let your husband punish him as he wants. Don’t be merciful!” Ling Lang was so angry that she kicked Chu Bai.
Chu Bai fell onto the sofa after a yelp of pain.
“Yaya!” A Miao shouted to the second floor, “Come down!”
As soon as Yaya entered the living room, Chu Bai hugged her legs and said, “Help! My life is in danger!”
“Do you still dare to turn to Yaya?” Ling Lang pointed to him and said, “You have ruined Yaya’s reputation. Do you think you have been wronged?”
A Miao asked immediately, “What’s going on? What would that have to do with Yaya?”
“You…” Ling Lang was stunned for a while and said, “Did you read the comments on the Internet?”
“No.” A Miao turned around and asked Yaya immediately, “Do you know?”
Yaya shrugged her shoulders. “Someone said on Weibo that Chu Bai had an illicit association with me.”
“Let me see.” A Miao took up her smartphone.
“Mom, you had better not look at it.” Yaya did not know what to do. “You know these netizens like to talk nonsense.”
A Miao was also anxious. “Just let me see!”
Chu Bai squatted in the corner and did not dare to say anything. A Miao’s face became more and more serious. He said with a sad face, “Auntie Miao, it is all my fault. Our people are looking into it. When I find out who…”
“It’s not your fault.” A Miao rubbed her forehead.
Ling Lang helped him to sit down. “You don’t need to care for him. It is his fault. If he did not want to be an actor or ask Yaya to be his assistant, these things would not have happened.”
“Auntie Lang, take a seat.” Yaya smiled and said, “I think I am okay. Spreading rumors between Chu Bai and me is better than between Chi Bai and others.”
A Miao shot her a glare and said, “I don’t think it’s okay.”
“Mom, it really doesn’t matter. As long as my identity is revealed, these rumors will vanish.”
“Yes! I have the same opinion.” Chu Bai nodded quickly.
Ling Lang slapped him and said, “Shut up!”
Shen Xinglan and Le Yi came back at the same time. Once they came in, Le Yi apologized to Yaya.
“That boy brought a lot of trouble to you. I will give you a gift.”
Yaya smiled and hugged him. “You did not bring troubles to me. Now, I’ve become a celebrity and a top search.”
“It’s all right. I’ve settled it.” Shen Xinglan hugged A Miao and said, “But we cannot forgive that person who plotted it.”
“Uncle!” Chu Bai asked immediately, “Can I do it by myself?”
Ling Lang was going to scold him, but Le Yi shook his head to warn her.
“OK.” Shen Xinglan had no problem.
A man should be responsible for his own fault.
On the third day, someone suddenly posted another picture.
“What’s wrong with your eyes? The girl in the picture looks like Chu Bai’s assistant.”
Yaya and Shen Xinglan were in the picture. When they were having dinner in a restaurant, the reporters took this picture secretly. This picture was very clear because of the close distance and it had been posted on the Internet before.
“Wow! They are so similar!”
Someone replied immediately and everyone went to compare the picture of Chu Bai and his female assistant with that picture. However, this photo was not clear enough. Some people still had some doubts.
Until… the director, who had been silent for a long time, retweeted a microblog.
“Haha! I wish Miss Elder in the Shen family would be happy during the filming.”
Everyone became excited. Those people who supported Chu Bai said they adored Miss Elder.
However, those who used to abuse Yaya deleted their microblog or canceled their accounts, especially those who got money from it. They kept silence for a really long time.
The Shen Corp! The richest man in City S…
“Isn’t my sister beautiful?” Chu Bai retweeted at the same time and posted a few pictures of him and Yaya when they were children.
The online comments all praised their long-term relationship and believed Chu Bai and Yaya were true love.
“Don’t look for me.”
Zhang Shanshan looked at the man in front of her, who just called her baby in bed last night.
“Chairman Song, are you going to abandon me?” Zhang Shanshan sobbed silently. Her pale face and tearful eyes made others’ hearts ache.
But who would care about women now? This man wished he had never met this fool.
“You know what you did behind me. You have offended the Shen family, as well as the entertainment circle. You had better leave City S as soon as possible.” After saying that, he threw a lot of money to her.
“Don’t blame me for being ruthless. Please take care of yourself!”
Zhang Shanshan was in a daze. “The Shen family? Why should I leave?”
“Chairman Song, wait a moment…” She stumbled to chase after him, but he shut the door and left.
Zhang Shanshan froze for a long time. When she reacted, she picked up her smartphone and read the news. Her eyes rounded when she saw the pictures and blogs.
“No… no…” She dialed her cell phone with her hands shaking.
“Hey.”
“Xiao Chen, have you seen the microblog? Now you have to listen to me and admit that you did all of this. I am not involved in it at all.”
The voice of her assistant came from the other end of the phone. “I’m sorry, Miss. Zhang. I am not your assistant anymore. The company assigned me to serve another star.”
The phone was hung up before she could react.
“Hey! Hey!” Zhang Shanshan shouted and threw her phone.
At this time, the doorbell rang.
In the airport of City S, a private plane slowly landed.
