Chapter 110 The Unexpected Official Announcement
"Ah~ Today's performance was absolutely amazing!"
"Sister Tang Zi, you sang so well! And Wen Ni, your guitar playing was really good! Most importantly, your improvisation and teamwork were absolutely amazing!"
As soon as Tang Zi and Wen Ni retreated behind the stage, their assistant rushed up to them and showered them with compliments.
"We owe a lot to Wen Ni today," Tang Zi sighed, as if she had just escaped a disaster.
“You wrote the song, and you sang it. I was just a supporting actor. Talented people will never be buried.” Wen Ni raised an eyebrow at her.
"Ah~ Wen Ni, if you were a man, I would definitely fall in love with you!!"
"Stop."
Wen Ni raised her hand to stop her from going crazy.
Then he smiled, took off his baseball cap, picked up his guitar, and walked ahead of the TIFF band members.
"Here you go, thanks for saving the day with your guitar."
"You're too kind! But you're a musician too? You play very well."
Xu Zhen took the guitar, stroking the strings which still seemed warm, and looked at Wen Ni's face with great interest.
"It's just a pastime in my spare time. Thank you for the compliment. I wish you all the best in your performance," Wen Ni replied politely, then turned to leave.
She left gracefully and decisively, leaving Xu Zhen somewhat unable to contain his emotions. He chased after her a few steps and asked, "What's your name? Can I leave you my contact information, or maybe we can have dinner together after the performance?"
Wen Ni neither answered nor turned around.
She simply raised her arm with her back to him and shook it back and forth.
"This girl is interesting."
"Alright bro, they're all gone, get ready to go on the field!" His teammate put his arm around Xu Zhen's shoulder.
"..."
Xu Zhen was still somewhat reluctant to leave, turning back every few steps.
Wen Ni, who had left the waiting area, went back to the lounge with Tang Zi and the others.
The performance has ended, but there will be a press interview later, so they can't leave yet.
"Xiao Zhu, could you go and bring two more people in from the audience? One is named Lin Yi, and the other is named Song Yanfeng?"
"Okay, Sister Tang Zi!" the assistant replied, turning around to close the door and leave.
Only Wen Ni and Tang Zi remained in the room.
"Let me see if I'm trending on social media~"
Tang Zi couldn't wait any longer and excitedly opened her phone.
Wen Ni didn't pay attention to any of that. She picked up an opened bag of pecans and slowly broke it open to eat.
While eating
You could see Tang Zi's excited lips gradually drooping, until finally her brows furrowed into a deep frown, and even her lips turned white.
"What's wrong?"
"Who...who spread this rumor? Which media outlet..." Tang Zi muttered to herself, her hand gripping the phone trembling with anger!
Wen Ni frowned and took the phone from her hand.
The first thing you see is a large, bold headline:
A well-known singer, whose career was severely impacted by the Myanmar invasion scandal, attempted to make a comeback by selling himself to a powerful figure in the entertainment industry!
The accompanying photo is of a dimly lit underground parking garage, clearly taken from the side or rear. Tang Zi is standing in front of the rear door of a car, while a man has just stepped out with one leg, preparing to get out.
Even though it was just a blurry profile, Wen Ni recognized Lu Jinye at a glance.
I have to say the shooting angle was quite tricky.
They deliberately made Tang Zi and Lu Jinye very close and ambiguous!
Many fans recognized Lu Jinye in the comments section, and the rapidly increasing and expanding comments fueled the growing public opinion.
"On the night of the Magnolia Awards, I clearly went to see Lu Jinye to talk to him about you. How could these unscrupulous media outlets spread fake news without verifying the facts?"
"A single photo proves nothing, but if someone is intent on harming you, just a single line of text can ruin your life."
"I just signed with PTA Entertainment, and now I've been framed for having an affair with Brother Lu..." Tang Zi clenched her fist nervously. "I don't care about myself, but I absolutely cannot let Brother Lu be implicated!"
Where are you going?
Wen Ni looked up and saw that Tang Zi had already stood up and walked to the door.
"I'll go explain this to the reporters!"
Empty talk.
How can I explain this to those media people?
Even if the explanation is clear,
Some people may choose to cover their ears, which could trigger a new wave of cyberbullying!
"Wait, Tang Zi..."
“Clatter.”
Wen Ni spoke too late; Tang Zi had already pressed the doorknob.
At the same time, countless reporters and cameramen came rushing towards them!
They held microphones, vying to get the first news!
"Miss Tang Zi! Please explain your relationship with Lu Jinye!"
"Ms. Tang Zi! Did PTA Entertainment really sign you because of Lu Jinye?!"
"Miss Tang Zi! Miss Tang Zi! Please answer!"
One question after another, buzzing around and making my head feel like it was going to explode!
Tang Zi's mind was indeed blank.
Just as Wen Ni was about to step forward and pull Tang Zi back, a tall figure appeared and pushed aside the disturbing reporters and media to get through!
"This is the artists' dressing room! Who let you in!"
"Song...Yan Feng?"
Tang Zi was stunned when she heard the voice and looked up at the man who came to her side wearing a baseball cap and a mask.
"Who is this man? A bodyguard?"
"Ms. Tang Zi, please answer your questions about you and Lu..."
"My relationship with Mr. Lu Jinye is not what you think!" Tang Zi replied sharply after regaining her composure.
She was fed up with the endless questioning and rumors.
Turning her gaze away from Song Yanfeng, Tang Zi looked firmly at the reporters in front of her and said loudly and confidently, "You want the truth, you want an explanation, fine! I'll only say it once, listen carefully!"
The reporters immediately fell silent, and their cameras were all pointed at Tang Zi.
"I was framed by my former company's dual contracts and almost died in Myanmar! After returning to China, no agency wanted me. They thought I had no commercial value and even drove me to the brink of despair! Only Lu Jinye contacted me and gave me a chance to start over!"
"So you're still making a deal with Lu Jinye involving sex and power?" a reporter pressed with ill intent.
"I didn't! Please stop insulting and smearing Lu Jinye's reputation!"
After Tang Zi finished speaking, as if she had made up her mind, she suddenly grabbed Song Yanfeng's arm, hugged him, and announced it to everyone in a high-profile manner!
"Besides, my boyfriend would be unhappy if he saw this kind of news!"
"!!??"
Song Yanfeng was stunned. He subconsciously turned his head to look in Wen Ni's direction and shook his head vigorously to show that he was innocent...
Wen Ni tilted her head. To be honest, the two of them actually looked quite well-matched!
"Boy friend!?"
"Miss Tang Zi has actually announced that she has a boyfriend!?"
"Quick! Take a picture!"
The sound of camera shutters was incessant, and the scene was chaotic once again.
Fortunately, Lin Yi and his assistant arrived in time with security guards.
They cleared the group of reporters out, finally giving them some peace and quiet!
In the quiet lounge
Song Yanfeng and Tang Zi looked at each other in bewilderment.
Wen Ni and Lin Yi sat in the corner eating sunflower seeds.
The assistant paced back and forth nearby, anxiously biting her fingers...
"Sister Tang Zi, you're an idol, you're a fan, how can you just go public with your relationship like that!?" The assistant paused, glancing at Song Yanfeng. "And it's even a fake relationship."
If this gets leaked, it will be a major entertainment scandal!
"Even a fake romance is much better than those filthy, fabricated news stories!"
Tang Zi, on the other hand, had a good attitude and waved her hand dismissively!
"I've clarified everything that needed clarifying, and I don't want to think about these annoying things anymore! Let's go, let's go have a meal and get together! I've already booked a private room!"
