Just as Liu Rulan had guessed, after remaining silent for about an hour, Su Shengxi and his company, Jiaxing Entertainment, simultaneously released a statement, claiming that the slip of the hand was done by Su Shengxi's assistant and had nothing to do with Su Shengxi himself. They also stated that they had dismissed the assistant in accordance with regulations and hoped that fans would discuss the matter rationally and not be swayed by malicious individuals.

At the same time, they sincerely wished Xiao He's film "Killing Life" a huge success and said they would buy tickets internally to support it.

So no matter what, "Killing Life" is indeed the biggest winner today. It has given the film free and widespread publicity, and also brought in a large box office. Director Hou must be grinning from ear to ear.

Seeing the final outcome, Xiao He was somewhat disappointed, but he also knew that this was how the matter would end, with the assistant taking the blame.

But since he painstakingly squeezed Xiao Chen out of her job, he deserves to lose it because of this.

After browsing the internet for a while, Xiao He received a call from director Hou Rongxuan.

"Xiao Xiao, I really have to thank you so much this time!"

Hou Rongxuan's cheerful voice couldn't be concealed even through the phone.

Xiao He politely replied, "I didn't do anything. Even without this incident, 'Killing Life' would have been a hit."

"Haha, but it saved us a lot of advertising costs!"

Hou Rongxuan said with a smile, "You're lucky, kid. I'll definitely come to you next time I have a notebook!"

Within this circle, many people still believe in metaphysics.

Xiao He understood Hou Rongxuan's meaning and didn't say much. He just smiled and agreed, "Okay, then I'll wait. If it's some super villain that I can have a go at acting, that would be the best."

"You little brat, you've really gone too far!" Hou Rongxuan laughed and cursed. "Then you just wait and see!"

"Ready to be summoned by Director Hou at any time—"

While Xiao He and Hou Rongxuan were chatting, the situation online unexpectedly changed again...

Inside the room, Bu Meiwei looked at Su Shengxi and his company's clarification and gave a sarcastic twitch at the corner of his mouth, a sense of weariness inexplicably welling up in his heart.

She has been following Su Shengxi since the talent show era. Her presence was indispensable in enabling Su Shengxi to debut as the center, which also established Bu Meiweixi's stable position among his fellow fans.

But now... the boy who cried and thanked his fans back then has grown up. He has started to forget his original intentions, date, lie to his fans, betray his colleagues, and gradually abandon the fans who have always been by his side...

I'm exhausted from not being able to sleep.

She felt it was time for her to leave.

However, just as Bu Mei was about to post an update announcing her retirement from the entertainment industry, she stared at Su Shengxi's account and suddenly frowned.

Something feels off...

As a die-hard fan of Su Shengxi, Bu Meiwei checks in on every single one of Su Shengxi's posts and comments, and it can be said that she knows Su Shengxi's Weibo inside and out.

But this time...
