Chapter 125 Taking advantage of someone's misfortune

Zhou Heran said, "Old Qi means that we should not get caught in the vortex of self-justification."

"We cannot try to prove what the marketing accounts are saying, otherwise they can use this as an excuse to produce a bunch of fake evidence. In that case, we will not only be unable to prove ourselves, but we will also be easily led astray by them."

Because of the time constraints, it wasn't Qi Chenyan who made the call personally, but rather he took a little time out of his busy schedule to have his secretary relay the message.

Yu Li also agreed: "That's right, so what we should do is put forward our views and make the marketing accounts have to prove themselves."

Zhou Heran chimed in, "But actually, this speed is still a bit slow. After all, the celebrity interview is going to air tomorrow. If it can't be resolved by today, the show might be canceled."

"To be honest, my Weibo is full of comments from fans asking me to refuse to watch the show, and they also want me to delete the promotional posts I shared before, in order to distance myself from you."

"In addition, my agent called me repeatedly this morning, urging me to cancel the show. That's why I rushed over as soon as I received Lao Qi's call. On the way here, I thought of a brilliant idea."

Yu Li: "What method?"

“I can’t express myself as quickly and directly as I do by going live on Weibo or even by issuing a lawyer’s letter. I just want to make things clear on my live stream.”

"Then we can end it by reporting it to the police. Once it involves the police, the marketing accounts will definitely be afraid, and this way we can stop the spread of rumors in the shortest amount of time. What do you think, Ms. Yu?"

This is indeed a very good and quick method, but Yu Li couldn't help but worry about Zhou Heran: "But even if it's going to be a live broadcast, it should be the person involved in this incident who does it."

“I already feel very embarrassed that this matter involves Mr. Zhou. If you start a live broadcast, it will completely drag you into this incident.”

Zhou Heran waved his hand dismissively, "It's just a small matter. Besides, who in the entertainment industry hasn't been plagued by scandals?"

"Besides, Miss Yu, you've escaped unscathed this time. And the reason I'm being so proactive today is actually because I have my own selfish motives."

Yu Li asked curiously, "Personal reasons?"

Zhou Heran chuckled twice. "Actually, I mentioned this to Lao Qi, but he didn't agree. Although it might seem like he was taking advantage of me, I think we shouldn't miss this opportunity. So, Miss Yu, would you be willing—"

"Wait a moment!"

When the key point was mentioned, Qi Xi, who had been sitting quietly to the side, suddenly jumped up.

She originally intended to cover Zhou Heran's mouth, but she had clearly overestimated her own height.

Instead of hitting Zhou Heran's mouth, the jump landed on his Adam's apple.

Zhou Heran was stunned for a moment, while Qi Xi, in a great hurry, grabbed Zhou Heran's arm without regard for anything else.

At this moment, Qi Xi no longer had any fear of touching her idol, and grabbed the person and walked out.

After leaving the bedroom and closing the door, Qi Xi hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhou, I know you mean well and want to help Lili solve her problem, but... but you can't take advantage of her!"

As she spoke, Qi Xi was heartbroken; in her heart, Zhou Zhou was perfect.

How could Zhou Zhou fall in love with a married woman? Even if this person is her best friend, what Zhou Zhou did was still very wrong. Although love is uncontrollable, this involves a moral issue and is absolutely wrong!

Zhou Heran exclaimed "Ah!" Before he could react, Qi Xi had already started rambling on, "Although my Lili is indeed beautiful and capable, she is already married and has a child."

"Although Lili's husband is busier than the president, overall he's still pretty good to her. Zhouzhou, you're also very good, but stealing your brother's girlfriend is a moral issue and absolutely unacceptable!"

Pfft!

Before Qi Xi could finish speaking, Zhou Heran burst into laughter, clutching his stomach and laughing so hard he couldn't straighten up.

"What are you laughing at? I haven't finished speaking yet."

Heaven knows how much courage Qi Xi mustered to dare to speak such profound truths to Zhou Heran.

Zhou Heran laughed until tears streamed down his face. He couldn't help but raise his hand and flick Qi Xi's forehead with his finger.

"What are you thinking, little girl? Even if you gave me a hundred lives, I wouldn't dare to steal Old Qi's girlfriend."

"Besides, don't worry. Although I admire Miss Yu's abilities, I have no feelings for her beyond friendship. I just want to take this opportunity to become the child's godfather. Is that not allowed?"

Now it was Qi Xi's turn to stammer, "Godfather?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Heran was indignant: "Yes, I don't think my request is too much, especially considering my nearly thirty-year friendship with Lao Qi."

"I didn't even have to bring it up; he should have already made some kind of response, right? But this guy is so stingy. Not only did he not agree, but he also said that he couldn't make the decision on this kind of thing and that he had to ask his wife first."

Zhou Heran gritted his teeth and cursed, "Henpecked husband!"

Realizing she had misunderstood him, Qi Xi felt ashamed and embarrassed, and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, I misunderstood, I was narrow-minded!"

"Oh, it's alright, it's my fault for not expressing myself clearly enough. Now, may I go in and continue my conversation with Miss Yu?"

To think that he would do something so outrageous in front of his idol, Qi Xi wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.

After letting Zhou Heran in, she was too ashamed to go in herself.

Yu Li craned her neck curiously, "Mr. Zhou, have you finished your discussion?"

"It's actually just a small matter, about the child's godfather. Miss Yu, do you think I'm suitable?"

Yu Li didn't expect that Zhou Heran's long talk was just about wanting the child to recognize him as his godfather.

Let alone whether it's suitable or not, if it were anyone else, they would be overjoyed to have a superstar like Zhou Heran as their godfather, and might even doubt whether he was really him.

"Of course you can, but Mr. Zhou, couldn't you just talk to Shen Yan about this little matter directly?"

She just didn't quite understand why Zhou Heran had to ask her about such a trivial matter as finding a godfather, instead of simply telling Qi Chenyan.

Zhou Heran shrugged. "There's nothing I can do. My good brother, who has always had his own ideas since childhood and seems fearless, is actually a henpecked husband."

"They said I had to ask my wife about this, and since my opinion didn't matter, I had no choice but to swallow my pride and ask Miss Yu."
