On Friday, Xue Qiandai and Jian Yan went to work at the coffee shop.
Upon entering the W Hotel, something unusual was immediately noticed. Everyone seemed to stop what they were doing for a moment; the receptionist, the cleaning staff, the security guards, and even the customers checking out all stared at Xue Qiandai.
Mrs. Huo, the future Lady, is the lucky one who saved the galaxy!
Xue Qiandai was stunned and tugged at Jian Yan, "Jian, am I having a hallucination? Are they all worshipping me? I feel like I'm under a 360-degree spotlight."
Even at this moment, Xue Qiandai was still in the mood to joke.
Jian Yan took her hand and said in a serious tone, "Dai Dai, walk your own path and let them worship you."
That's why the two of them could become best friends. Their personalities and ways of dealing with things are so compatible.
Upon entering the coffee shop, all the staff were present, and there were even two delivery riders waiting for orders.
Jin Xiangyu said with an almost fawning smile, "Dai Dai, did you see my blessing? I was the first to wish you and President Huo a long and happy marriage."
Xue Qiandai was even more confused. "Sister Yu, what are you talking about?"
Jin Xiangyu winked at You Duoduo, who brought over her laptop. The screen displayed the photo Huo Yunchao had posted on Weibo announcing their relationship. "Dai Dai, President Huo has publicly confessed his feelings to you. You have to respond, right?" Switching to another browser window showed a photo of them kissing on the top floor.
Xue Qiandai suddenly remembered why Huo Meiren had demanded a formal title so early in the morning—it turned out she'd been secretly photographed. But why was Su Qianhui mentioned in the post? "Sister Yu, have coffee orders increased at the shop?"
"Of course, the rider is still waiting. But you don't need to worry about that. What are your plans with President Huo next? Are you getting engaged?" Jin Xiangyu turned into a gossip queen, eager to get more exclusive insider information.
"Just do what you're supposed to do." Xue Qiandai pointed to her nose. "Sister Yu, I'm only 21. Jumping into the grave of marriage so early?"
She didn't think much of it and just blurted it out.
However, though she spoke without thinking, Huo Yunchao overheard her words when he came to see her. How uncertain must she be about their future to say something like that?
If President Huo is unhappy, someone else is going to be in trouble!

Regarding Huo Yunchao's public actions, the Jin Group responded, stating that Su Qianhui had never met Huo Yunchao alone. Yesterday, Su Qianhui suffered heatstroke during filming and has been resting at her hotel. Even so, she persisted in studying the script and memorizing her lines, hoping to convey the brand's spirit of "eat better" to consumers. The post included a picture of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water (a traditional Chinese medicine) and a selfie of Xue Qiandai with a bright red face.
However, another post on the internet stirred up a huge uproar.
This is a post full of evidence. Netizens traced the server address of the earliest poster, which belonged to a paid online marketing company. All the posts were related to Su Qianhui. Netizens are outraged: why would a major celebrity's paid online marketing company operate like this? Who exactly is she trying to target?
Jin Heng hadn't expected that the top celebrity he'd chosen for his endorsement would have so many ulterior motives, and that he himself was part of the scheme. Today's shoot was cancelled. To avoid suspicion, he didn't go to the hotel but instead made a phone call. "Ms. Su, can you explain the information online? Perhaps you weren't telling the truth yesterday."
Yesterday, Su Qianhui said, "When I first started out, I worked as a stunt double, doing both hand double and stunt double work. Tonight, I can play the role of your ideal woman naturally."
Jin Heng didn't understand and asked, "Why did you do that?"
"Why?" Su Qianhui asked softly, her eyes half-closed. "Mr. Jin, isn't the ultimate goal for a celebrity to marry into a wealthy family? Just think of me as being vain."
The more she said that, the less Jin Heng believed her. "I've seen your work, especially 'Seven Beauties of the Bamboo Forest.' Someone who can portray that kind of temperament wouldn't be a vain person."
Su Qianhui stared at him intently, a glint of light flashing in her eyes. She sniffed and began to speak slowly and deliberately: "Thank you for your trust. Actually, I am an illegitimate child. My father made some money by taking advantage of the opening up of China. He has a wife and a daughter with her. He gave the best of everything to that mother and daughter: money, status, and the light of day. My mother and I are just beings who cannot be seen in the light of day. He would come to my mother when he needed something, and afterwards leave a wad of money."
Jin Heng suddenly felt a lot of sympathy for the girl in front of him. Not having a complete family must have caused her a lot of psychological harm.
“I didn’t do well in school, I wasn’t cut out for studying, so I wanted to enter society as soon as possible and escape this heartless family. But I couldn’t endure hardship, and I was determined to enter the entertainment industry. My dad probably still had a conscience, he spent a lot of money on me and paved the way. So those rumors about me getting cast with my own money are all true.”
"I've played some roles, but what I really want to play is a princess from a wealthy family, someone who's pampered and cherished. After I became famous, I met some wealthy investors, but they were either old and greasy, with beer bellies eight months pregnant; or they had families to support and had to disgustingly play the role of a devoted lover. I don't want to be a homewrecker. All things considered, Mr. Jin, you're the best stock. Besides, you yourself said that I look a bit like your white moonlight. In my opinion, that means you want to keep me as a mistress."
Jin Heng was speechless; it turned out he had misled her.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Su. If my behavior has caused any misunderstanding, I apologize. I have a girlfriend, and we haven't broken up yet. Arranged marriages are very common in our circle. Generally, even if there's no affection, people are bound together. I think you should remember this: there are no eternal feelings, only eternal interests."
After saying this, Jin Heng left the W Hotel in a hurry.
He knew that if he didn't leave soon, he might make a mistake, and with that kind of face on his face, how could he possibly resist?
Back in reality, Su Qianhui was on the verge of a breakdown. She had received a lawyer's letter from Huo Yunchao's lawyer. She was eager to resolve the issue, not to get entangled with Jin Heng about her motives.
“Mr. Jin, everything I’m saying is true. Believe it or not. The ‘Eat Better’ advertisement is about to launch, and the media placement has been finalized. You can’t afford to delay. We’re on the same side now, and I hope we can unite against this common enemy. Besides, the root of all this is that you misled me.”
Jin Heng was like a mute eating bitter herbs, unable to express his suffering.
Meanwhile, Su Qianhui's agent called Chaoxun Company, claiming that Su Qianhui wanted to meet Huo Yunchao.
Huo Yunchao agreed. In any case, the Fire Clan suffered no losses; in fact, after this incident, the Fire Clan became even more popular.
The meeting place was a courtyard house belonging to the film and television company where Su Qianhui worked.
"Mr. Huo, I didn't expect to see you at this kind of event. I had no intention of filming your private moments; it was my people who made a huge blunder. I sincerely apologize for any trouble this may have caused you. I invited you here today to ask you to be lenient and withdraw the lawyer's letter and such."
