The next day, a recording of Han Zheng hinting at a female star suddenly leaked online. In just one hour, it became a hot search topic and received over a million hits.

Han Zheng’s Weibo account also collapsed as a result, and he was finally forced to set the account so that only those who had followed the account for more than half a year could comment. He tried several times to remove the trending searches, but failed. As a result, advertisements for several brands he endorsed, as well as new variety shows and scripts he had come into contact with, all fell through.

Even an ancient Chinese IP drama that he participated in producing was directly removed from the list.

All the reputation and fame he had accumulated in the industry was lost when he had the wrong idea about Su Yang.

Everything happened in an instant, without any warning. His acting career was completely ruined, and his agent and company were overwhelmed by calls from the media.

When Su Yang saw this report, his mood did not fluctuate much. His sparkling almond eyes were full of frost. He took a sip of the coffee in his hand and continued to flip through the script in his hand.

"Sister Yang, the guest for the seventh episode has been changed. Have you heard about it?" Zhuang Tong walked in from outside and spoke excitedly.

"Um."

"You know everything?"

"Director Fang just arrived."

"Ah? Why is Director Fang here at this hour?"

Su Yang pulled the corner of his lips slightly, paused slightly in turning the pages of the book, and his eyes were gloomy.

He came here at this time to apologize, of course. Although he did not bear any major responsibility, he was present yesterday and was warned by Rong Zhan's eyes. Han Zheng's recording and hot search today must have been manipulated by Rong Group behind the scenes.

If he doesn't apologize sincerely and admit his mistakes, he will be implicated by Han Zheng, and even more afraid of being targeted by Rong Zhan, the capital tycoon. He will not have a good life in the future.

"Have you decided on the guest for the seventh episode?"

Zhuang Tong shook her head. "Not yet. We are still in the preliminary selection. However, since the seventh episode will be recorded next week, I am afraid that we will not have enough time. They said that they will be the new stars Lu Fanxing and Mia. Another one is supermodel Ni Sangwan. She was originally the guest of the eleventh episode, but she may be moved forward to save the situation."

"I heard that Ni Sang will have a catwalk fashion show in the capital at the end of the month. It's a collaboration with the brand GaChanel, with the latest summer theme. The designer is Guci, and she'll be the finale. I really want to go and see it, but unfortunately, tickets for that show are not available even if you have money, and I heard that they're limited."

Su Yang was not very interested in the catwalk show she talked about. She was so engrossed in listening to her that she just did a quick search for Ni Sangwan's basic information on the Internet to prepare for the subsequent interview.

——

Airport.

Looking at the girl in front of him who was wearing an apricot-colored puff-sleeved dress, with a cute bun on her head, and had a pretty and delicate appearance, a smile as big as a crescent moon, and exuding youthful vitality and vigor, Su Yang was slightly stunned and asked with a faint smile.

"How did you recognize me?"

The little girl smiled widely, her clear and lively eyes moving around, with dimples on her face. "Well, my mother showed me your photo, and you are so beautiful, sister-in-law. You are the most eye-catching among all the people who came to pick me up at the airport. It's hard not to recognize you."

"Rong Xi? Your brother had a meeting and couldn't get away, so he asked me to come."

Rong Xi smiled and nodded, his voice sweet, he took her arm affectionately and said coquettishly: "Well, I just saw the WeChat message he sent me after getting off the plane. Thank you for your hard work. Just call me Xixi. Sister-in-law, can you take me to eat something first? I'm so hungry, the food on the plane is so bad."

"Okay, let's go."

No matter how quiet and calm Su Yang was, he couldn't resist the girl's coquettish attack. He reached out to take the suitcase from her hand and walked towards the car.

Compared to Rong Zhan's dull and irritable personality, Rong Xi is obviously more likable. He is eloquent, has a sweet voice, and is as bright and charming as a sunflower.

The personalities of the aunt and sister-in-law seem very different, but they surprisingly get along well.

After taking Rong Xi out for dinner, Su Yang received a call from Zhuang Tong, saying that there was a problem with the shooting progress report and she needed to go over to reconfirm it.

"Xixi, I have to go back to the TV station later. What do you think? Should I take you back to Rongyuan first or..."

"TV station?"

When Rong Xi heard this, his eyes lit up. He reached out and tugged at the corner of her clothes, shaking it coquettishly: "Hey, sister-in-law, can I go? I haven't been to a TV station yet, and I want to see what it looks like. Don't worry, I will never cause any trouble for you."

Seeing her raise two fingers and her serious promise, Su Yang lowered his eyes and looked at the time on his watch: "Well, it's okay. You can call Rong Yuan and tell her so that grandma and mom won't have to wait for you at home all the time."

"Okay, no problem."

Rong Xi made an OK gesture and obediently called home. Old Mrs. Rong was very happy to hear that the two sisters-in-law got along well. She also told her not to cause trouble for Su Yang and to learn more from her sister-in-law.

After arriving at the TV station, Su Yang took her to the elevator to the floor where her preparation room was. As soon as the elevator door opened, a beautiful figure suddenly jumped into his sight. She paused slightly and walked out slowly.

Lin Qingle outside the elevator was also stunned. He subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat and raised his hand to cover the half of his face that was covered tightly by the mask.

Su Yang didn't stay for long, he just looked away indifferently and walked past her.

The two of them had no interactions, and there was no need for them to even say hello to each other. The last time they met was on the day they signed the contract for "Idol Advent". Lin Qingle wanted her to give up the variety show, so they started a tit-for-tat confrontation.

"Su Yang."

Lin Qingle turned sideways and called her in a low voice.

Su Yang stopped again and looked back at her, meeting her eyes that had long lost all their pride and confidence, leaving only anxiety and trepidation.

"I...I want to talk to you."

"Come with me." Su Yang looked at her indifferently and walked forward.

After entering the preparation room, Zhuang Tong was a little confused when he saw the three people who came in. He did not recognize Lin Qingle, and nodded in confusion: "Sister Yang..."

"Where is the proposal?"

"On the table."

"Well," Su Yang looked at Rong Xi who was looking around: "Xi Xi, don't you want to walk around? This is my assistant Zhuang Tong, you can ask her to take you around first, and buy yourself a drink by the way."

"Okay, then I'll have to trouble Sister Zhuang Tong!" Rong Xi jumped happily in front of Zhuang Tong and very tactfully pulled her out of the preparation room.

After they left, Su Yang sat on the single sofa with her legs crossed. She pushed the milk tea that Zhuang Tong had prepared in advance towards her, then picked up the coffee and put it to her nose to taste the mellow coffee aroma, sipping it gently, her voice light and indifferent.

"I only have twenty minutes, tell me what you want to say."
