Zhu Zhu was discussing something with Xie Jiashu and Shen Yihuan when her cell phone rang. Zhu Zhu picked up the call and it was her mother, Hu Jinhua.
"Mom...what's wrong? What happened?" Zhu Zhu asked Hu Jinhua.
"Zhuzhu! Oh no, something happened!"
"What happened?" Hu Jinhua's tone was anxious on the phone. Zhu Zhu knew that it must be a big deal.
"Liu Media has been suppressing Shuangzhu for a while now. Not only did they poach the popular young actor we had previously agreed to promote, but they also took away much of Shuangzhu's business. Now Shuangzhu not only faces a huge amount of compensation, but also has lost its business. Shuangzhu may very well be unable to continue operating..."
What?! Zhu Zhu never expected that Liu would attack Shuangzhu.
"How could this happen? Why did the Liu family target Shuangzhu? We have no close relationship with them at all. Why are they holding on to us?" Zhu Zhu asked anxiously.
Hu Jinhua suddenly kept silent. She didn't know how to tell Zhu Zhu.
"Mom! What time is it? What else are you hiding from me?"
Hu Jinhua took a long time to think before speaking: "Zhu Zhu, please don't take it to heart."
"Okay. Go ahead!"
"Your father heard from Director Zhou at the TV station that the reason the Liu family targeted Shuangzhu was because... because you offended Liu Ruohan, the only daughter of Liu Media..."
"Liu Ruohan?!" Zhu Zhu didn't understand how she had offended her. Yes, she had noticed Liu Ruohan's interest in Nan Xun at the engagement party. But now that Zhu Zhu and Nan Xun were divorced, Liu Ruohan should be happy. Why would she use this against Shuang Zhu?
"How did I offend her?" Zhu Zhu couldn't figure it out.
"Let me ask you, was An Yiqing, the CEO of Anhe Entertainment, your boyfriend from college?" Hu Jinhua asked Zhu Zhu. "Your father has inquired about this. Miss Liu hates you so much because she found out..."
An Yiqing! Zhu Zhu held her forehead. So it was because of An Yiqing. She had been so careless.
"Zhu Zhu." Hu Jinhua asked again when Zhu Zhu fell silent, "Is An Yiqing really your ex-boyfriend?"
Zhu Zhu knew she couldn't hide it anymore, so she had to tell the truth.
"Mom, I'm sorry to Dad. I didn't expect that what happened in the past would hurt Shuangzhu again."
It turned out to be true. Hu Jinhua felt a chill in his heart. It seemed impossible to get Liu to release them.
"Zhu Zhu. Can you go home? I'm afraid your father can't bear it because of these things." Hu Jinhua paused.
"Okay. Wait for me at home. I'll be right back."
…
"Zhu Zhu, what happened?" Shen Yihan was very worried when he saw Zhu Zhu's face was very bad.
"Liu Ruohan." Zhu Zhu said to Xie Jiashu and Shen Yihuan, "She knows that An Yiqing and I were once lovers, and now she is using the power of the Liu family to deal with Shuangzhu."
"Liu Ruohan?" Shen Yihan was puzzled. "How did she know that you and An Yiqing were together? You have to know that only a few people knew about this incident back then. Not even your parents knew."
Zhu Zhu was shocked. Indeed! Back then, at An Yiqing's request, Zhu Zhu and him had been having a secret relationship at school, and apart from a few close friends, few people knew about it.
Wait! Zhu Zhu suddenly thought of something.
"Zhu Jue knows about me and An Yiqing!"
"You mean Zhu Jue told Liu Ruohan about you and An Yiqing?" Shen Yihan asked in surprise.
Zhu Zhu nodded: "It's very likely."
Shen Yihuan suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. If this was true, Zhu Jue was truly terrifying. Even after so many things had happened, she still had such a wicked heart.
