Unlike the peaceful atmosphere at the zoo, the heated online discussions surrounding Xie Chi's relationship are far from over.

Bai Hong looked at the trending topics that were constantly emerging online with a smug smile. Even if this didn't have a big impact on Xie Chi, his girlfriend would at least look better. As someone working in the entertainment industry, she knew all too well how many female fans and female fans Xie Chi had. If it were revealed who Xie Chi's girlfriend was, someone as loving as Xie Chi would definitely be unable to resist coming out to clarify.

She didn't sell these recordings all at once, but rather piece by piece, each time fetching a new price. She made a fortune and even used her alternate account to spread the news.

The revenue from sharing alone is substantial.

Bai Hong wanted to see what the latest developments were on the internet, but suddenly realized that the top trending topic wasn't Xie Chi, but someone completely unrelated.

Suzhou-style congee.

Suzhou-style congee?

Bai Hong briefly thought about it and remembered who Su Zhou was. Wasn't she the director of the Wanling Zoo? She was also the only daughter of the richest man in the country, and her life was incredibly glamorous.

Clicking on it revealed an audio comparison.

The conclusion drawn by Bai Hong comparing the recording she released with Su Zhou's voice on the internet is that... Su Zhou is very likely Xie Chi's mysterious girlfriend.

More and more information about Su Zhou has surfaced, with her neighbors and classmates from elementary school to university all coming forward to reveal details.

—I was a junior high school classmate of the zoo director who's a famous online influencer. She's from a well-off family, has a very gentle temperament, isn't arrogant, and is very approachable. She'll reply to people who greet her, and generally doesn't refuse friend requests. She's very pretty, and I heard her family spoils her; I've seen her parents pick her up in their car several times. I just didn't know her father's background at the time.

—They're neighbors. Su Zhou's dad is a great cook. As far as I know, Su Zong only cooks for her when she comes back; most people don't get that treatment.

—Excellent grades, a top student since childhood. She doesn't seem to study much and often sleeps in class, but her grades are always a sure thing, consistently number one. Here's something you might not believe: our school is considered a prestigious private school, and we recruit some exceptionally gifted students, but Principal Su's grades are even better than those of the exceptional students.

...

Bai Hong scrolled down for a long time in disbelief. The topic had a high readership, and the latest Weibo posts on the square were popping up very quickly. But surprisingly, not a single person in those Weibo posts said anything bad about Su Zhou. Without exception, they all praised her.

How is that possible?

Xie Chi...isn't this trying to climb the social ladder?

Looking at the comments from Xie Chi's fans, the sentiment is overwhelmingly one-sided.

—I'm a die-hard fan, but...I'm really powerless in front of my sister-in-law. She's a top student from a top university, the daughter of the richest man, the director of a popular zoo, and she herself seems to be a great beauty. I'm really...kneeling down first. Consider this my brother's sacrifice.

—My brother is doing well now, he's married into a wealthy family.

—Don't be so rigid about gender, or do you need a nanny? I've passed the CET-4 and CET-6 exams, and I'm a graduate of a 985 university…

—Who understands the helplessness of having such an outstanding sister-in-law? I'm really not good enough. Compared to Mengchi, I feel that my sister-in-law is too outstanding. I've decided to switch allegiances.

…

Xie Chi is currently retired from the entertainment industry and has never appeared in the public eye since. On the contrary, Xie Chi's fans often mention him, giving casual observers the illusion that Xie Chi has always been there and has never gone far. In reality, Xie Chi has long since stopped caring about those comments online.

Bai Hong's expression twisted and changed continuously... eventually turning into a deep sense of powerlessness.

Not to mention that Su Zhou is the most beloved only daughter of the Su family, Su Ji's legal department is known as a sure-fire winner, never losing a case they've ever fought. Many people who try to shift the blame end up suffering huge losses. The company's current performance isn't very good to begin with, and if it's because of her, the consequences she faces will be much more severe.

Feeling guilty, Bai Hong deleted all the content from her alternate account, which already had hundreds of thousands of followers, and then deleted the account.

She was truly speechless now.

It can only be said that some people are just born lucky. Xie Chi is lucky, so he became a big star as soon as he debuted, and even his girlfriend has that kind of status.

Su Zhou's life is incredibly fortunate. With so many layers of buffs, no one dares to be angry or speak out, and no one even has the courage to provoke her. It makes one wonder which window God closed for her.

The online controversy continues, and Su Zhou feels that the number of visitors to the zoo has not only increased, but has also become very strange.

Female tourists, in particular, would stare at her intently after seeing her, with expressions that were completely incomprehensible to them.

"Director, I heard your boyfriend is Xie Chi. Is Xie Chi also at the zoo?" The little girl's voice sounded like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, crisp and clear, as she looked at Su Zhou with curious eyes.

Upon hearing Xie Chi's name, Su Zhou's heart leaped into her throat.

nervous.

I was genuinely nervous.

Having heard about the extent of Xie Chi's fans' madness before, Su Zhou took a deep breath, unsure of what to say.

"Sister, can you sign my name here?" The little girl took out a souvenir book from the zoo, which contained personal files of all the animals in the zoo, as well as paw print stamps. You could get a stamp for visiting each animal's exhibit, and many people would go to the souvenir shops on the shopping street to buy one.

Su Zhou hummed in agreement, took the pen and signed her name, "You're a fan of Xie Chi."

"Yes, sister, I've liked Xie Chi for two years now. Are you living together?" The girl spoke without any restraint, which made Su Zhou's face turn bright red.

Is it really okay to say something like that so bluntly?

Kids these days are really bold in what they say.

Su Zhou didn't want to be a spoilsport, but she still didn't know how to respond to such words.

"It's signed. Have a great time at the zoo," Su Zhou said simply, offering her best wishes.

The young girl smiled and nodded: "I wish you a long and happy marriage."

Su Zhou was taken aback for a moment: "Thank you."

Other girls also came over to ask for autographs. Su Zhou spent a lot of time signing autographs. After the park closed, she felt that she had signed more autographs than she had from kindergarten to college graduation.

I'm so tired of writing the two characters of my own name.

Shaking her aching wrist, she felt that thanks to the big star, she was able to enjoy the same treatment as a celebrity without any pain.

"Xie Chi, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear?" Su Zhou lay flat on the sofa, slowly closed her eyes, and said weakly.
