"Tongsu, come quick, let's take a picture together!"

Lan Shu'er looked at Xi Tongsu's indifferent expression and her silence, and muttered uneasily to herself. She smiled first and said, "Don't misunderstand those things on the internet. The fans are just talking nonsense."

Tong Su suddenly smiled and said, "What misunderstanding? Could it be that your scheming against me behind my back is a misunderstanding?"

As soon as she said that, the faces of the people around her turned into all sorts of colors.

There were already fans and paparazzi trying to find out what was going on around the film set. In addition, Lan Shuer and Ji Yu were waiting at the entrance of the film set, which did not hinder her movements at all. People who wanted to watch the show had already run out from the film set and were peeking around nearby.

The paparazzi excitedly pointed their cameras and started snapping away, while the crew members stood by watching the spectacle with excitement. Ji Yu and Lan Shu'er's fans didn't look too pleased.

Ji Yu frowned and said in a low voice, "Tong Su, how can you talk like that? There are so many people around. If this gets out, won't people really believe the rumors? How could Lan Shu'er scheme against you? Isn't she your good friend?"

"A good friend?" Tong Su raised an eyebrow and said slowly, "I can't afford a good friend who's trying to seduce my fiancé behind his back!"

"you--"

Ji Yujun's face darkened with anger, his fists clenched tightly, and he said with restraint, "Tongsu, you can't just say things like that."

Lan Shuer was much calmer than Ji Yu. She shook her head with a wry smile, her smile weary, and looked at the crowd gathered around her with difficulty. She said, "Tong Su, shall we go in first?"

"Why do you want to go in? Are you afraid someone will overhear?"

"Alright, since you don't want to go in, then we won't go in for now," Lan Shu'er said helplessly. "I know you're unhappy and still think I have ulterior motives towards Ji Yu. You're always looking at me with displeasure, and when you occasionally complain, people spread all sorts of rumors about me. But Tong Su, it's absolutely true that Ji Yu and I have absolutely no relationship. If you don't believe me, I have nothing to say. I can only say that the truth will prevail."

Tong Su exclaimed in surprise, "How could I not believe it?" She looked very serious, not at all like she was joking.

Lan Shu'er froze, her heart sinking as a vague sense of foreboding rose within her.

Sure enough, the next moment, Tongsu reached out and grabbed her, pulling her towards the paparazzi who were taking pictures without saying a word.

"Then you should explain yourself clearly to everyone. Since the truth will prevail, what exactly are you complaining about that led to this misunderstanding? By the way, since you say you didn't scheme against me, why don't I invite Mang Han out so you can talk about how you responded when she invited me?"

Lan Shu'er was so shocked by this change that she felt a chill run down her spine.

She looked up at Tong Su, and only at such close range could she see the hidden mockery and coldness in Tong Su's eyes.

"So you... knew after all..."

The screenwriter Liu Ming, the recording leak and scheming—these are all excuses. It's just that Xi Tongsu knows about her and Ji Yu's affair and is trying to find ways to deal with them!

"I know? What do I know? Lan Shu'er, I haven't done anything to wrong you, have I? But what did you do? You kept it from me, smeared me with Mang Han, and rejected Mang Han's invitation on my behalf without my knowledge!"

The surrounding crowd erupted in uproar upon hearing this.

Lan Shu'er turned her head away in a flustered manner: "What else do you want..."

"What more do you want? Lan Shuer, how dare you ask such a question? You said you had to go on a business trip, but you ended up in the same film crew as my fiancé, spending every day together without any regard for propriety. Isn't that you?!"
