Chapter 84: Cheating

Not only within the crew, but also within the circle, the news went viral.

Shen Xiyu's phone was buzzing with messages. People she rarely contacted came to message her, asking if the things on the trending search were true.

Chu He's agent immediately came to the crew and called him away.

Before leaving, they had a brief conversation with Shen Xiyu and Wade.

Chu He’s agent is Wang Haomei, a well-known senior in the circle.

She looked a little solemn, but the expressions of the people present were also not relaxed.

"You two tell me what's going on first." Her eyes fell on Shen Xiyu and Chu He.

Shen Xiyu frowned and spoke first, "The flowers have nothing to do with him. They are from outside my circle..." She paused, "A friend gave them to me."

"There are so many eyes on the set, they'll know everything with just a few questions."

Chu He nodded without adding anything else.

"Other photos have already leaked." Wang Haomei took out her phone and showed them, "This person first sent it to the company. We are currently negotiating terms with them."

In her phone was a photo of Chu He blocking the door of Shen Xiyu's RV yesterday.

"There were other people in the RV at the time, so we weren't alone together," said Shen Xiyu.

Wang Haomei didn't show any sign of relief, because based on the rumors she had heard over the years and her professional ethics, this matter was not as simple as Shen Xiyu said.

"Don't worry, there's more."

Sliding the phone back, there are a few winter photos, the year of which can no longer be identified. In the photos, there are photos of Shen Xiyu and Chu He holding hands, and there are more than one.

Shen Xiyu suddenly felt nauseous when she saw these photos. She really didn't want to bring up such old stories.

Wang Haomei looked at the expressions of the two people and had some guesses in her mind.

"When did it happen?"

"When the filming of "No Way Out" was just finished." Chu He answered first.

Everyone present was familiar with "No Way Out". This was the film that brought Wade back to the film industry and made Chu He an instant hit. It was also Shen Xiyu's pioneering work in this industry.

It is no exaggeration to say that this movie made all three of them successful.

Things have come to this point, and Wang Haomei knows that it is useless to say more. It is more important to understand the situation clearly first.

"How long did you talk?"

"Three or four months, not a long time." Shen Xiyu said.

Wang Haomei breathed a sigh of relief. Although Chu He was a popular star, he was not an idol. The public was not so harsh on actors' love affairs. In addition, the two were in a serious relationship, and Chu He had had girlfriends in recent years.

They could have just issued a statement and told the truth. This trending search was originally a misunderstanding. Even if their past was dug up, the two of them were in a normal relationship and broke up normally. There is nothing to criticize.

"One last question, didn't anything go wrong during your relationship?"

The two knew what she wanted to ask.

So they all fell silent at the same time.

Wang Haomei sighed in her heart. Now it was great. It seemed that not only had something unexpected happened, but it was also a serious problem.

"Chu He, if you don't tell us now, we won't be able to provide you with timely public relations when things come to light. We're the only ones in charge here, so please tell us as soon as possible if you have anything to say."

Wang Haomei's words were almost a scolding, because after all, these things had little impact on Shen Xiyu. She was just a screenwriter, and Chu He was the main reason for the commotion. Moreover, she was not one of their own artists, so Wang Haomei had no right to question her casually.

Wade stared at the two silent people in confusion. Even he didn't know what had happened.

Seeing that Chu He was still hesitant to speak, Shen Xiyu sneered. He still couldn't tell what he had done in the past, and now he dared to come to him again and again to show off his presence.

"He cheated on me, and that's why we broke up." Shen Xiyu didn't want to waste his time, so he said it for him.

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked and fell silent.

All I could hear was the noise of the crew outside the RV.

"Why didn't you tell me that?" Wade's tone was a little unhappy.

Chen Xiyu stared at Chu He, who was looking down. "Is this kind of thing glorious? Should I use a loud speaker to announce it to the world?"

Wade never thought that this was the reason for their breakup.

He turned his attention to Chu He, "Are you a fucking man? Has Shen Xiyu ever wronged you in any way?"

"How have you ever let me down?" Chu He smiled sinisterly, "She has never cared about me at all."

"I'm too lazy to argue with you." Shen Xiyu was really too lazy to argue with him about these things.

"That's it." Chu He was intrigued by her attitude. "You were like this before. The script, the role, even him." Chu He pointed at Wade. "They are all more important than me, aren't they?"

"How can you say you're in love with me? If I hadn't pretended to be the hero in your novel in real life, would you have been with me?"

"You've never taken me seriously. Even when I cheated on you, you were indifferent, not even a bit angry." Chu He shed his usual polite exterior, his face ferocious. "What's so good about that Liang Qi? I noticed you kept his things before, and now he's back, you're trying to get close to him again. Is it because he's rich?"

Shen Xiyu knew how to irritate him the most.

She raised her eyes, like a calm law enforcer.

"There's no need to make excuses for your infidelity. No matter how much I like Liang Qi, we didn't keep in touch when we were together. I kept his things in a corner and didn't touch them. You saw them while you were looking through my things. And you know, I don't just have his things there, I also have things given to me by my former friends. I don't owe you anything. You cheated on me because of your own moral corruption. Don't put the blame on me."

"You are a heartless person." Chu He shook his head and said to Shen Xiyu.

Because of this matter between the two of them, half of the afternoon had been wasted. Shen Xiyu stood up.

"I used to like you, too, Chu He. You said I was with you because you were pretending to be a character from my novel. I don't deny that there was such a reason, but I'm not a fool. I know what kind of person you are. You're so pathetic, so pathetic that you don't believe anyone could fall in love with the real you, right?" Shen Xiyu looked at him with disgust. "You still think you love me, don't you? The only person you love is yourself."

Chu He's face darkened little by little. He looked at Shen Xiyu's leaving figure and raised his voice and said, "Then why do you treat him differently? Is it because he is an investor? Has he known you for a long time?"

Shen Xiyu paused. Although she didn't want to stay, she turned around after a few seconds.

"Because he deserves my love, and you don't."

“…”

Shen Xiyu and Wade stood under the tree, waiting for the scene to be set up before resuming the afternoon performance.

Today's incident seemed to be a big deal, but in fact it had little impact on their filming plans, and the crew also gained a lot of publicity for free.

"Chu He may not be able to be used anymore." Shen Xiyu really wants to see Liang Qi now, and he doesn't know if he has seen what's trending on the search.

Before Wei De could ask her about the confrontation with Chu He just now, Shen Xiyu said this.

"What's wrong?" Wade was puzzled. "You want to replace him?"

"How could I have such power?" Shen Xiyu was very clear about his own strengths and weaknesses. "What he did was not accidental. His target was Chu He. What happened to us today was nothing. It will soon be clarified and proved to be a mistake."

"But why did it happen to me? Have you ever thought about it?"

Wade still didn't quite understand, "Please explain your words more clearly."

Chen Xiyu continued, "Chu He didn't reveal any of his relationships later, but he revealed it to us after we broke up so long ago. It's obvious that they knew Chu He had cheated on me while we were together. Today's trending search is just an appetizer. They are just going to drag out the rumors that we were dating before, and then bring out the rumors that he cheated."

"Someone did it on purpose to mess with him."

Wade was a little annoyed, not because he felt sorry for Chu He, he simply felt sorry for his crew. The filming of this movie has been going on for a long time, with funding withdrawn and actors running away. Now there is even the possibility of an actor's reputation being ruined.

In a sense, this is the movie that has the real ill-fated fate.

But Wade thought of a possibility, and he spoke bluntly, "Liang Qi?"

Shen Xiyu didn't say anything. In fact, when she first realized that someone wanted to frame Chu He, she also thought of this possibility, because he had been alone with Chu He yesterday afternoon, and he had also investigated Chu He.

Although very few people knew about Chu He's infidelity, and Shen Xiyu had never told anyone about it, the same could not be said about Chu He and the other girl. With Liang Qi's connections, it was possible for him to find out about it.

but……

"He wouldn't put us on the map this way."

It’s not so much that Shen Xiyu knows him too well, but rather that she trusts Liang Qi too much.

If Chu He's past deeds were directly exposed today, she might still suspect Liang Qi more.

But today someone spread a rumor that the flowers he sent were evidence of Chu He and her relationship. Liang Qi would definitely not agree to this and might even be angry about it.

But did Liang Qi really not play any role in this? Shen Xiyu didn't dare to guarantee it.

"So what should we do with Chu He's role now?" Wade discussed with her and made a decision.

"You decide the situation." Shen Xiyu didn't want to overstep his bounds and deal with such a thankless task. "I see they're all in place. Let's start the machine."

As the two were walking over there, Shen Xiyu's temporary assistant in the group came over.

"Sister Xi Yu, you're trending again."

?

Shen Xiyu didn't think he'd done anything outrageous or shocking, right? What was he doing all day? Could it be that Chu He's affair had been exposed so quickly? What was their PR team supposed to do?

It took the phone from assistant Xiao Zhou.

The hot search terms are also strange.

——I gave you the flowers.

What does this mean?
