Chapter 545 Two "What Ifs" Shang Yechu was unaware of Ji Juntao's anger. Since clarifying her relationship, Shang Yechu had rarely used Weibo.
Even on the day "The Heavenly Lord" was officially announced, Shang Yechu only routinely retweeted the official announcement Weibo post and then posted a promotional Weibo post. After switching to her alternate account and glancing at the ecstatic Yeya fans, she uninstalled Weibo.
If Shang Yechu hadn't happened to pass by while her assistants were discussing the matter, this shocking revelation would probably have taken several more days to reach her ears.
"Su Ge is Mai Zhenye's daughter?" Shang Yechu repeated with a strange expression.
The assistant knew that the leading lady had recently become obsessed with studying the drama, so it was normal that she was unaware of these worldly matters. She quickly pulled up her Weibo account and held it up in front of Shang Yechu.
Shang Yechu quickly scanned the news article, and a long-lost feeling stirred within her.
After starting to study the Heavenly Lord, Shang Yechu clearly felt that her mindset had become much more peaceful. In the past, when arguing with Shao Guangji, she would often be so angry that she would be furious. Recently, however, she found it increasingly difficult to regain that sharp edge in her arguments. At first, Shang Yechu was panicked about this, but after practicing in front of a mirror and finding that it didn't affect her performance, she let it go.
Upon seeing this news, Shang Yechu's first thought was one of sudden realization. No wonder Su Ge received such good treatment at Meta Pictures and could make decisions on many important matters, even with such poor acting skills.
My second feeling was pity. Su Ge's days are probably going to be very difficult.
My third thought was one of contempt. Many of the photos Gong Jian released were clearly taken secretly from various angles. This meant that he had been plotting to betray Su Jin for over a decade. Indeed, no one in this world can be trusted, not even someone you've married.
Furthermore, Su Ge was just a child back then, and Gong Jian spied on and secretly photographed her like that. Using a child to achieve one's goals is truly despicable.
Suddenly, a figure flashed through Shang Yechu's mind. That person was pushing a stroller in the rain… No, no, Yang Huanyi was different. How could someone like Gong Jian compare to Yang Huanyi?
But Shang Yechu couldn't quite put her finger on what was different.
Although Su Ge brought her own investment to the production, had terrible acting skills, and was never professional, she was still very loyal to Shang Yechu. Relationships between people often can't be strictly defined. Now that this rumor has suddenly surfaced, Shang Yechu has to find out more about it.
First, Shang Yechu tried contacting Su Ge on WeChat, but unsurprisingly, there was no response. She then tried calling him, but his phone was switched off. Shang Yechu then contacted Su Ge's agent, Lin Hui, but the line was busy and no one answered. It was truly a mess.
Shang Ye was in the capital, so it was impossible for him to run back to Hengshi to comfort Su Ge. Left with no other choice, he contacted Qingping Entertainment's assistant and asked them to inquire about the situation.
Although given Su Ge's personality, it's unlikely she would commit suicide over something like this, rumors are like a tiger, and she can't help but take them to heart.
For Su Ge's sake, Shang Yechu borrowed her assistant's phone and browsed through the public opinion on various platforms. Sure enough, the judgment and abuse against Su Ge and Su Jin had swept the entire internet overnight.
Shang Yechu couldn't say that public opinion was wrong. From the perspective of public order and good morals, Su Jin did indeed violate morality, and Su Ge was indeed a product of immorality. Criticizing others' basic moral values is arrogance, even if it's done under the guise of friendship and loyalty.
Shang Yechu couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine at the prospect of public opinion. She thought of herself and Yang Huanyi; their brief relationship had also been illicit. What happened to Su Ge and Su Jin today might just be what happened to her and Yang Huanyi tomorrow!
There was something Shang Yechu had never dared to tell anyone. If Ji Juntao and Ye Ya knew, they would probably slap Shang Yechu across the face dozens of times. That was, in some corner of her heart, Shang Yechu had always secretly hoped that Yang Huanyi would leave Cao Shi and return to her side.
This kind of longing is base, and Shang Yechu herself knows it. Many children from divorced families dream of their parents returning to them and remarrying, and even if their parents have new families, this wishful thinking can never be completely eliminated. Shang Yechu is no exception.
What if Cao Shi dies?
