Chapter 44 She seduced me
Before entering the square, Su Yunruo looked at the photographer behind her again.
The 160-pound photographer sensed something was wrong and took a step back.
Unfortunately, Su Yun followed without realizing it, and he still couldn't escape the fate of being her former colleague.
Before long, Su Yunruo and Lin Xingsen, wearing hats and masks, rushed into the square where talented people had gathered.
The area, about half the size of a playground, was clustered together in the middle of four or five shopping malls. The onlookers and shoppers seemed to have a tacit understanding; even though they were gathered in a group, they were loosely connected, with gaps through which people could pass.
The music first attracted Su Yunruo's attention. After listening for a few moments, she reached out and nudged Lin Xingsen, "Someone is singing the song you sang at your last concert."
The viewers in the live stream naturally heard it too, and Lin Xingsen's fans were extremely excited.
FLY's songs are super popular!
She could actually tell I was crying my eyes out.
With the song right in front of him, Su Yunruo will definitely make him sing.
It seems Lin Xingsen cannot escape a public execution.
As expected, Su Yunruo asked the question that the viewers in the live stream were hoping for: "Will I have the chance to hear you sing live today?"
"No."
Su Yunruo raised her hand to cover her eyes, "Waaaaah, my lifelong regret is hearing you sing a song like this."
"Your regret last time was pig's trotters."
Speaking of pig's trotters, even viewers in the live stream who had watched the preview episodes repeatedly laughed.
[Hahaha, who still remembers that ridiculous pig's trotter story about carrots?]
[She's faking tears again; that's how Zheng Chengcheng was fooled last time.]
I won't fall for your tricks this time!
At this point, Lin Xingsen should have learned from Zheng Chengcheng and asked her: "Are you really crying?"
"We need to make money! You can't rely on a weak woman like me alone."
"..."
Lin Xingsen was half a head shorter than Su Yunruo. His cat-like eyes looked up at the top of her head, and his speechless expression seemed to say: You're weak?
He tried to leave after giving her a look, but Su Yunruo reached out and patted his head. "Looks like you're not suited to being polite first and then resorting to force."
Lin Xingsen: "?"
He tried to struggle, but Su Yunruo held him tightly and he couldn't break free.
I was thinking of letting her have the upper hand, but I didn't expect that even without her, I wouldn't be as strong as her!
Lin Xingsen was starting to have doubts about life.
My upper body was out of control, and I was being pulled along, while my legs were clattering backward.
You can't beat them, you can't beat them at all.
Originally, she was following the direction of the song, asking passersby to make way as she walked. But she didn't know if Su Yunruo had any talent for sound localization. As she walked, FLY's song ended, and she didn't see the singer. Instead, she noticed that more and more people were gathering around, forming large circles, with lively jazz music coming from inside.
*
Han Se-sung initially did not want to take on the show "Let's Travel Together".
After going public with his relationship with Bae Seol, the variety shows he participated in were almost all filmed indoors. He didn't need to talk much, and he would even be praised for being "relaxed" when he casually leaned on the sofa.
However, those were all recorded variety shows, and there was still about a month before the broadcast after the recording was completed. LY's general manager personally came to persuade them, and Han Yao saw this and agreed on behalf of Han Shicheng.
Han Shicheng had no way to express his suffering.
—They had no idea that he had been tricked by Su Yunruo.
"Ah Cheng, which spot should we go to first?"
Pei Xue's soft voice pulled Han Shicheng back to reality from his thoughts, but soon the noise filled his ears again. He could hear everything, but he couldn't make out a single word.
"Brother-in-law Han!"
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!"
"Ahhh, my brother-in-law is so handsome!"
"Brother-in-law, I like you!"
Han Shicheng frowned. These women were nothing like the ones he usually saw. Their face powder was thicker than the paint on the wall, their eyelashes were all smeared together, and they had neither breasts nor buttocks. They were really ugly.
Having grown accustomed to a life of being pampered and adored after transmigrating into the book, he developed a psychological aversion to contact with poor people.
Pei Xue tugged at him, then tiptoed closer and whispered, "Is it too crowded? Are you not used to it?"
Han Shicheng glanced at Pei Xue, feeling slightly comforted.
"Acheng?"
He smiled, his eyes radiating a gentle light that seemed to envelop Pei Xue completely. His lips brushed together lightly, and his voice seemed to come from his throat, "As you wish."
[Ahhhhh, Brother-in-law Han spoils Xuexue so much!]
Honestly, Brother-in-law Han's face is so handsome, especially his jawline, it's so smooth!
[This is too sweet! You two should just kill me to liven things up!]
Pei Xue smiled faintly, "Then let's go to one that's nearby first."
—If Zhou Kantian hadn't told her about Han Shicheng's infidelity that day, Pei Xue would probably have been captivated by Han Shicheng's sweet talk and thought he was really handsome, just like the screaming audience.
But now she's disillusioned and just feels disgusted.
The inability to break up with my boyfriend made me feel nauseous even more.
Looking back now, she shouldn't have paid any attention to Zhou Kantian in the first place, and she wouldn't have ended up in such an irreparable situation by breaking her principles.
Pei Xue debuted as a child star and was used to the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry, so her attitude on this matter has always been firm—no way.
Moreover, she is different from Su Yunruo. Su Yunruo has a wealthy backer supporting her. Youqian Entertainment was established specifically for her, and Youqian Entertainment was the largest investor in every drama she filmed.
Pei Xue didn't. In her career, she only had herself. The reason she became the leading actress in ancient costume dramas is because she worked tirelessly on set for many years, 365 days a year. She always did her own action scenes, and even if she only needed to show her back, she insisted on not using a stunt double in order to make a good impression on the director. Not to mention, she gritted her teeth and endured the deliberate difficulties caused by other more famous actors and directors before she became famous.
Zhou Kantian had a good reputation in the industry, so when he approached her to introduce her to a rich second-generation heir, Pei Xue did not immediately refuse.
When Han Shicheng's photos came out, she was even more captivated by his perfect image when she searched for this rich young man online.
Born into a noble family, graduated from a prestigious foreign university, and has always maintained a clean and upright character, many of his colleagues in the industry who married into wealthy families speak highly of him, while also lamenting that for ordinary people to try to climb up to a tycoon like Han Shicheng is like a toad trying to eat swan meat.
At that time, she was genuinely attracted to him, not entirely because she wanted to marry into a wealthy family, but simply because of Han Shicheng as a person.
Who would have thought that after nearly twenty years in the entertainment industry, having seen so many two-faced people, and thinking she was no longer easily fooled in social situations, she would still fall for it.
Fortunately, Han Shicheng did come from a wealthy family, and Pei Xue was happy for the first time because she understood that Han Shicheng would eventually marry a woman of equal social standing.
So she found the path that was most beneficial to her.
Use Han Shicheng's value to its fullest extent during the relationship, and then break up gracefully when Han Shicheng gets tired of you, without any messy arguments or entanglements.
Han Se-sung needs her to maintain his image as a good boyfriend, so she helps him play the role of a couple deeply in love.
Pei Xue reached out and wrapped her arm around Han Shicheng's, revealing a familiar, happy smile. "I never thought I could walk around with you like this one day."
"Didn't I take you to the SVIP room in Building A before?" Han Shicheng tried to keep a straight face and remained silent for a moment. "You can't just go from store to store there like you can now. You have to sit in the lounge and wait for the brands to bring up their new products. If you want, next time I take you there, I won't let you sit inside. I'll take you for a walk outside."
"..."
Wow, Brother-in-law Han is amazing! I don't even dare to go up to Building A; he's an SVIP. I can't imagine how those arrogant sales assistants in those stores behave in front of Brother-in-law Han.
[Brother-in-law Han said he'd take Xuexue shopping in Building A = Brother-in-law Han is buying Xuexue designer brands, probably spending hundreds of thousands of yuan, right? That's true love.]
[Xuexue wore a haute couture outfit before, and I suspect it was actually Han's brother-in-law. He was afraid to go public with their relationship, so he pretended to be rich.]
The viewers in the live stream had too many fantasies about Han Shicheng, and no one noticed Pei Xue rolling her eyes slightly.
She was speechless. She had heard similar things when she first talked to Han Shicheng. At that time, she felt that his words had a kind of clumsy sincerity that comes with a straight man, as well as the accustomedness of a rich second-generation to a privileged life. Now that the filter has been shattered, she feels that it is strange.
Is it necessary to mention the SVIP in Building A? The fact that they specifically mentioned taking me there makes me feel like I've suddenly become a tool for showing off.
Let's not continue this topic.
Pei Xue gently shook Han Shicheng's hand, "You're lying. You're so busy. You're going to Hong Kong next week for a charity auction. You don't have time! We should take advantage of today to have a good look around."
Han Shicheng deliberately pressed his tongue to his throat, hesitated for a few seconds before answering, "I'm not going to Hong Kong next week, I'm going to the United States to discuss the acquisition of a multinational corporation." He paused, "Whenever I go on a business trip, I immediately take my private jet back to China to be with you after the meeting."
"..." Pei Xue's lips twitched, but fortunately she had many years of acting experience and quickly adjusted her expression, putting on a look full of happiness, "Okay, I know you love me the most."
Fearing that Han Shicheng would give another pretentious answer, she pressed on, "Where are we going first?"
"..."
It seems this young master is more accustomed to following others' instructions.
Pei Xue awkwardly asked and answered herself, "There seems to be a snail rice noodle shop among the popular snack shops mentioned in the program. Why don't we go there first?"
"Why eat this kind of food? I can ask Donghe Restaurant to reserve a private room for us to eat seafood."
Donghe Restaurant is a famous seafood stall in the area. It once became a hit online, with many food bloggers on short video platforms visiting the restaurant.
Pei Xue's expression froze for a moment.
As a female celebrity, she shouldn't eat such greasy food, but now that she's saying this in the live stream, Pei Xue suspects that Han Shicheng is really going to take her out to show off tonight.
She bit her lip and said, "Although that's what the mission says, I've never actually eaten snail rice noodles before. Please, please, have some with me, okay?"
"Have you ever tried the seafood at Donghe Restaurant? It's caught directly from the sea that day, and a professional chef slices it piece by piece right there beside you..."
Pei Xue interrupted him: "Let's eat that tonight, we need to do our program tasks now."
After their relationship was exposed, Zhou Kantian began to personally teach Han Shicheng one-on-one how to portray a pampered young master in public. Pei Xue suspected that Zhou Kantian had taught him these words because this pretentious manner was exactly the same as the first episode where Su Yunruo chose a bad one and then took everyone to the Su family tea house.
Do you have to mention some awesome places you've been to to sound impressive?
It's just a seafood meal, just a VIP room, Pei Xue didn't even want to talk about it. Ever since she rented that rich woman's haute couture apartment last time, her fashion resources have taken off. Whatever she wears, the brand will send several pieces directly to her home for her to choose from.
Oh well, anyway, neither of these two men are going to marry me.
Pei Xue stopped talking to Han Shicheng, took out the mission card, and led Han Shicheng to the marked location amidst the fans' crowd.
She'd filmed a movie here before, but hadn't explored the area yet. Seeing the huge crowds in the square and the live performances by popular online singers piqued her interest.
Han Shicheng is the same.
Pei Xue follows singers, but he follows female internet celebrities who dance. She has a great figure, a slim waist and long legs, and dresses very sexily. Every move she makes while dancing and her eyes are captivating.
Even more outrageous was that there were even professional walkers, with long curly hair, wearing a slightly tight cheongsam that accentuated their curves, and the skirt was almost slit up to their thighs. They walked with great flair, swaying from left to right and then from right to left. Han Shicheng's eyes were fixed on them, just like the camera behind him.
Pei Xue was somewhat displeased.
It wasn't jealousy; all she wanted now was to break up with Han Shicheng, that hypocritical, low-class man. Han Shicheng openly looked at other women in front of the camera, making Pei Xue feel like she'd been stuck with a stupid colleague.
His response lacked emotional intelligence, which was bad enough, but now that his girlfriend was right there, he was looking at other women. How could he maintain his image as a good boyfriend?
If things can't continue, the two of them will both perish.
"Acheng, it's so crowded here. Shall we ask someone how to get to the snail rice noodle shop?" Pei Xue grabbed Han Shicheng's hand and shook it again, deliberately trying to bring him back to his senses. "Let's go."
Han Shicheng didn't turn his head. "Wait."
The audience's reaction in the live stream was almost exactly as Pei Xue had guessed; they all expressed dissatisfaction with this behavior, especially after the phrase "wait a minute" came out.
Why does Brother-in-law Han keep watching those borderline-scrolling livestreamers?
[His gaze is off; he looks like a pervert.]
[Pei Xue told him to leave, but he wouldn't. That's strange. Isn't he supposed to be the perfect boyfriend?]
But some people have come forward to explain.
[Impossible! Brother-in-law Han only loves Xuexue.]
[Could it be that they find it novel? After all, there aren't many oddballs in their social circles who call someone "brother-in-law" in such a borderline way.]
Pei Xue bit her lip. "Don't look! Even if you asked me to wear that girl's clothes, I wouldn't."
When Pei Xue said that, the viewers in the live stream understood.
Haha, so you were after her dress.
[Maybe when I took Xuexue shopping before, I bought her a lot of clothes that she thought were nice.]
If I had a girlfriend as beautiful as Xuexue, I'd want to dress her up like a doll.
Han Shicheng was indeed swayed, "Why not wear it? It shows off your figure."
"I...I..."
Are those deliberately suggestive cheongsams something respectable people would wear?!
Pei Xue didn't know how to answer this question that was full of traps. She stammered and looked around, trying to find an interesting performance to change the subject. Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in the crowd.
It wasn't just that she appeared, it was that she stood out, because Su Yunruo was really too tall; she would immediately attract attention in a crowd.
As if possessing some magical power that made her "see you and you'll sense it," Su Yunruo, who was chatting and laughing with Lin Xingsen next to her with a cold face, suddenly turned her head and looked in Pei Xue's direction.
The sun was shining brightly, and the strong ultraviolet rays made her face look even whiter.
Su Yunruo has never filmed a period drama, and there are no signs that she deliberately lost weight to wear heavy period costumes. She has some flesh and can be described as plump and voluptuous.
Her big eyes were as bright as stars, and when she smiled, her smile was so radiant that you couldn't help but smile along with her.
Pei Xue curled the corners of her lips, intending to nod in agreement, while also thinking of a way to take Han Shicheng away—she knew that Han Shicheng hated Su Yunruo.
Suddenly, Su Yunruo raised her hand high, not just waving, but straightening her arm and swinging it dramatically from side to side, as if she wanted Pei Xue to see it.
"..." Pei Xue awkwardly raised her hand in response.
The next second, Su Yunruo pulled the cool little cat next to her over... over!
Pei Xue remained silent.
Can't we just nod and then each do our own thing?
They are the enemy!
"Su Yunru just waved to me, what does she mean?" Han Shicheng suddenly asked.
Pei Xue: "..."
Is it really waving at you?
The word "crazy" popped into Pei Xue's mind first, but then she suddenly became alert, realizing that Su Yunruo might actually be beckoning to Han Shicheng.
Han Shicheng's identity goes without saying, and with his looks, it would be abnormal for any female celebrity not to be attracted to him.
Earlier, Pei Xue wasn't worried that Han Shicheng had feelings for Su Yunruo. On the one hand, she disliked Su Yunruo, and on the other hand, they had no opportunity to interact.
But things are different now. They're recording a variety show together, and who can guarantee that Su Yunruo's methods for dealing with sugar daddies won't work on Han Shicheng?
Su Yunruo is currently the only female celebrity in the industry who can be compared to her. She had a bad reputation in the past, but she completely redeemed herself during the filming of "Let's Travel Together". She also showed that she had better horseback riding skills than Zhou Kantian. As a result, many period drama scripts were not sent to her first, but only after Su Yunruo rejected them.
Although Pei Xue wanted to break up with Han Shicheng, she was unwilling for Su Yunruo to become Han Shicheng's next girlfriend.
I can't imagine what Su Yunruo would become if she had Han Shicheng's wealth.
"Pei Xue! You guys came over here too?"
Pei Xue was filled with mixed feelings, but Su Yunruo came over and greeted her happily.
Is your mission location nearby?
Pei Xue nodded vaguely, "Um... what about you guys?"
“We heard that we can make money by performing here, so we came.” Su Yunruo raised her hand and poked Lin Xingsen’s arm. “Why are you acting so aloof? This is Sister Pei Xue, call her sister.”
Lin Xingsen glared at Su Yunruo, who flicked him on the forehead. "What are you glaring at me for?"
Pei Xue thought Lin Xingsen was about to jump up and beat someone up. After all, Lin Xingsen's bad temper was well-known in the industry. The twelve-year-old was unruly and difficult to control, but his fans liked that kind of thing.
However, the child looked away, bowed silently, and said, "Hello, Teacher Pei Xue."
Pei Xue: "..."
"Don't let his aloof demeanor fool you, he's actually shy. Sometimes he can seem a bit rude, but don't take it to heart," Su Yunruo said, finally turning to look at Han Shicheng. "Mr. Han is even more handsome in person than in photos."
Han Shicheng snorted coldly and turned his head away, ignoring her.
Pei Xue felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders. Su Yunruo seemed to think that Su Yunruo wasn't interested in Han Shicheng, and Han Shicheng wasn't interested in her either.
"You arrived before us. Do you know how to get to the snail rice noodle shop? We need to go and complete our mission."
Su Yunruo stared with her clear, big eyes: "I don't know."
Lin Xingsen tugged at Su Yunruo's sleeve, "The song over there is about to end."
"Oh." Su Yunruo glanced behind her. "We're going to perform to earn money. If we miss it, we'll have to wait in line again. If you want to go to the snail rice noodle shop, why don't you just ask the sales assistants or passersby?"
Pei Xue nodded, "Okay, thank you."
She hadn't expected her chance encounter with Su Yunruo to end so easily and pleasantly. Logically speaking, since her hiring of haters to smear Su Yunruo had been exposed, and Su Yunruo was a competitor, she should have been sarcastic and sarcastic in her words.
Isn't it great to steal your rival's boyfriend?
"What are you going to perform?" Han Shicheng suddenly asked again.
Pei Xue: "..."
"Breaking a boulder on his chest, Northeast Errenzhuan (a type of folk opera), Mantis Boxing," Su Yunruo casually rattled off a few examples.
When Su Yunruo was explaining these absurd answers, people in both live streams laughed.
[I was in Su Yunruo's live stream the whole time, and I can testify that she did ask our Xingxing to go up and spam "Mantis Fist" (a type of martial arts technique). Xingxing immediately tried to run away.]
Pei Xue didn't know what to say, hahaha.
[Su Yunruo, with her unique and distinctive art style.]
Am I the only one who thinks she's a tomboy? She deliberately says things that are different from what others are saying to attract Brother-in-law Han.
[Maybe she brought that kind of tactic from idol dramas into real life. Didn't she use these unconventional methods to seduce the domineering CEO in those dramas?]
[Su Gongzhu, give up! Brother-in-law Han is deeply in love with Xuexue; he won't be attracted to a woman like you.]
"have a look."
Han Shicheng uttered two words that completely slapped the face of those viewers who had always thought he was "devoted and affectionate".
However, the viewers in the live stream were also very good at making amends.
Being interested is one thing, liking it is another. Maybe Brother-in-law Han just wants to see something odd. It's like going to the zoo to see monkeys.
[Let me tell you, Su Yunruo is not only a tomboy, but also a seasoned green tea b*tch. Just now, she deliberately ignored Brother-in-law Han and only greeted Pei Xue. Then she actually went and told Brother-in-law Han that he was handsome.]
I understand her; I used to do the same thing to hook men.
[Tsk tsk tsk, that's disgusting. Is this how she hooked up with Ke Jinyang and Fan Xingchen too?]
"Sure, come on over."
Su Yunruo led Pei Xue and Han Shicheng back to where they had come from, but unfortunately, the crowd had grown larger and larger because of their arrival, making the short distance extremely difficult to traverse as the audience raised their phones to take pictures.
When the four people returned to the side of the stage, the music changed, and a woman wearing a red sundress walked onto the stage.
It has fair skin, long limbs, and is covered by a thin layer of muscle.
Her skirt had no pattern, but the hem was wavy, and when she walked, it looked like splashing waves, bouncy and light, and beautiful.
A lively rhythm began, and the woman started dancing.
It's Latin!
Her body swayed, her dance steps even lighter than her skirt, her long hair fluttering in the wind as she danced.
Wow!
The audience screamed, and some even turned their phones, which were originally used to film the four celebrities, into filming the stage.
[Ahhh, so beautiful! I want to see! Photographer, please turn the camera around!]
So sexy, I love it.
The production team satisfied the audience's demand and turned the camera to the stage.
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in the otherwise beautiful shot.
? ? ? ?
Su Yunruo climbed onto the stage without anyone noticing. The dancers were also taken aback when they saw her, but as Su Yunruo started dancing to the music, the dancers reached out and touched her.
A solo dance suddenly turned into a duet, making the atmosphere even more lively.
The background music stopped and was replaced with a more upbeat tune.
Su Yunruo changed her dance steps with the dancers, and compared to the previous postures that focused on twisting the upper body, she now bounced more.
The clean and crisp kicks and swings made him appear more relaxed and carefree, like... like a cowboy dancing triumphantly with a gun!
The enthusiastic atmosphere was so infectious that even the audience was drawn in and joined in.
[Isn't Su Yunruo dancing quite well? In the preview episode, she seemed to lie to the others, saying she couldn't dance.]
[Isn't she studying abroad? If she's doing waltzes, she'll probably dance a bit at Latin dance events, since people abroad seem to enjoy clubbing more than people in China!]
Although her movements weren't as precise as the professionals next to her, her jumps were still really beautiful, very relaxed, and looked like she was just casually playing around.
[Please cut the camera to Lin Xingsen's face. I want to see his expression after he finds out Su Yunruo can dance. Hahahaha, it must be awful!]
The camera obediently cut to Lin Xingsen's face; the child had no expression, coldly watching everything.
However, the camera just happened to pan to Han Shicheng's face. His delicate features revealed a hint of satisfaction, and he turned his head, curved his lips into a smile, and whispered to Pei Xue.
The voice was very low, but the microphone was not removed, and Pei Xue's entire live stream could hear it.
Han Shicheng said, "She deliberately lured me over, and then deliberately danced for me."
[Wow! Brother-in-law Han is so clear-headed!]
[Brother-in-law Han must be a tea connoisseur; he immediately noticed Su Yunruo's little scheme.]
[To be honest, Su Yunruo's actions were way too obvious. The dancers were performing, what was she doing up there? Not only did she steal the spotlight from the dancers, but she also deliberately showed off her "dance moves" to Brother-in-law Han. Ugh—]
The dancers were speechless.
[I wasn't originally a fan of Han Shicheng x Pei Xue, but now I am. Han Shicheng only loves Pei Xue.]
Even after the dance ended, Pei Xue dragged Han Shicheng to find a snail rice noodle shop, and Su Yunruo and Lin Xingsen switched places to work. Speculation about Su Yunruo seducing Han Shicheng remained the hottest topic on the show.
#Su Yunruo is jealous of Pei Xue#
#Su Yunruo seduces Han Shicheng#
#Su Yunruo is a green tea bitch#
Multiple trending topics appeared online.
LY PR held a meeting late at night, and its marketing accounts published articles such as "Su Yunruo is a toad trying to eat swan meat" and "Su Yunruo is a habitual mistress who uses low-level methods to seduce other people's boyfriends"... and so on.
Marketing account: [Su Yunruo has finally broken her act after pretending to be a rich woman for so many episodes. The way she fawned over Han Shicheng was hilarious.]
Someone quickly replied: "Brother-in-law Han was able to immediately tell that Su Yunruo was deliberately seducing him, probably because Su Yunruo had already knocked on his door the night before."
Seeing Xuexue being pursued by such an awesome rich second-generation, Su Yunruo must be incredibly jealous. They're sworn enemies.
【？？？】
Su Yunruo has attracted a large number of fans by recording variety shows recently, and her fan base is no longer the weakling that used to be suppressed.
They quickly took their offensive positions.
【Shouldn't you see what your Xue fans are saying? A beautiful woman dancing gets accused of seducing men? Please, there were so many people there, how narcissistic would your Han brother-in-law have to be to think she was deliberately seducing him?】
[This is really ridiculous. Isn't Han Se-sung just acting like a typical male fanboy? Why are so many people protecting him?]
[Seriously? Seriously? You criticize Su Yunruo for wearing a dress, you criticize her for dating, and you even criticize her for appearing on variety shows? Someone like Han Shicheng should just leave, okay? Su Yunruo doesn't need that.]
[Come on, does Su Yunruo need to pretend to be a rich woman? The house on the island in the middle of the lake is her own, the photos with Danjuan are real, she's a bona fide heiress. She has absolutely no need to fawn over Han Shicheng, and among Su Yunruo's male friends—Fan Xingchen, Ke Jinyang, Hu Yang—aren't they all more polite and interesting than Han Shicheng?]
Why do Pei Xue's fans always imagine Su Yunruo trying to steal her idol's man? Is Han Shicheng some kind of hot commodity? He's clearly a pretentious guy, always talking about SVIP memberships, business trips abroad, and private jets. Real wealthy tycoons don't talk about those things.
Just as the two sides were arguing fiercely, the dancer who danced with Su Yunruo today posted on Weibo to explain: The cowboy dance was originally planned to be performed with Teacher Su Yunruo, but there was a small accident in the middle, so the music was changed after Teacher Su Yunruo joined in. My performance here was just out of interest, not a large-scale event, so everyone was very casual, and some audience members would join in and dance with me before.
At this point, everyone was just using the excuse to argue. Any explanation or truth seemed pale and powerless, and did not change the fact that many people believed that "Su Yunruo seduced Han Shicheng".
Moreover, there are far too many news stories about female celebrities becoming mistresses and seducing wealthy men.
Spectators watched the drama unfold, while fans from different sides attacked each other.
Until an unknown insider revealed: "Can Han Shicheng really inherit the Han Group? He's not the biological son of the current general manager. Besides, he used to be in charge of the Han Group, but he's been dismissed now."
This directly shattered the filter of "Han family heir" and "genuine rich second generation" in everyone's mind.
Where can you find the juicy gossip of wealthy families compared to the scandalous gossip of celebrities?
【Wow!】
[Dude, explain in detail. I have enough data.]
If I submit my resume to Han's Group now, will it be enough time to gain access to their HR network?
However, this unknown insider deleted his account and disappeared after posting the message. Not only were netizens unable to find out, but even LY's public relations department couldn't find out who was behind the account.
This is incredible! It has greatly piqued everyone's curiosity.
After a long day at work, the office worker was exhausted, but upon seeing Han Shicheng's scandalous story, he was jolted awake from his deathbed and started looking for relatives everywhere.
—Brother, you are my only connection in the entertainment industry.
—Sister, you're my sister, you have to tell me if you hear anything!
—Family members, please, what exactly is going on with Han Shicheng?
LY's PR department had been focusing all its efforts on Su Yunruo, but this was the first time they had gotten their hands on gossip about their boss.
To be honest, right now their work is less important than their eagerness to gossip; they also really want to know what's going on.
*
"You fucking said you could make money by appearing on variety shows, but you never said it would turn out like this!"
A black streak flashed through the air, and Zhou Kantian, not daring to dodge, was hit squarely on the head by the shoe.
He bent down, his fingers gripping the ground so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
He taught Han Shi to create a persona and vent his anger by belittling Su Yunruo.
He thought that someone like CEO Han, who managed the company, would be two-faced and good at performing in front of the camera, but he didn't expect that he would be the same way in front of the camera as he was in private.
He's not even as good as some of the rich kids I know; their style is more authentic than Han Shicheng's.
The throbbing pain in his head made Zhou Kantian even more puzzled. He had heard rumors before that Han Shicheng was young and promising and could manage the company in an orderly manner. Why was he acting like a vulgar hooligan now?
"Speak up, you fucking bastard!"
Zhou Kantian shuddered. "Sometimes online public opinion is not easy to control. Let's cool things down first, and netizens will forget about it after a while."
"Now everyone's saying I'm not their biological son!"
"..." Zhou Kantian was helpless. He knew that Han Shicheng had been dismissed, but he did not expect that the Han family would have such a thing.
"What do you think we should do now?"
Zhou Kantian suspected that Han Shicheng hadn't listened to what he had just said, so he said it again helplessly, "Let's stop for now and wait until netizens forget about it."
"Forgot? How could I forget? The whole internet knows now."
"..."
Zhou Kantian couldn't figure it out. This was the first time he had faced such a predicament, and he felt utterly powerless, wanting nothing more than to lie down.
The reason might be that there was always a voice in her mind saying, "It's no use. No matter how you try to fix it, Han Shicheng will only make things worse."
Snap
One shoe had already been thrown, and now the remaining shoe finally hit Zhou Kantian.
"Now everyone knows that I can't inherit the Han Group!"
Zhou Kantian gasped for breath but then calmed down.
Since Han Shicheng cannot inherit the Han Group, he has no intention of continuing to follow him. Therefore, he needs to find a new backer, perhaps the new heir... In the struggle for succession, if he uses Han Shicheng as a pledge of loyalty, he might be able to succeed easily.
He forced a smile. "Young Master Han, instead of worrying about these unfounded rumors, why not change your approach and shift your focus elsewhere?"
Han Shicheng stopped in his tracks. "Where are we moving to?"
"You haven't even spoken about the heir, so what you've said online doesn't count. You still have to record the show tomorrow. Besides actively participating in the projects the production team has specially arranged for you, you can also bring out your yacht for the audience to see. Just like Su Yunruo showed off her big villa at the beginning, only by showing the audience the things that rich people play with will they be truly devoted to you."
This episode invited Han Shicheng and Pei Xue. Not only did they offer a high price, but during the negotiations, General Manager LY also specially asked the director to arrange skydiving, diving, and surfing. These are all activities that Han Shicheng is good at and often does. He has the certification and is quite professional.
Han Shicheng was taken aback. "I also have a yacht?"
Zhou Kantian took this reaction as a special way for rich people to flaunt their wealth and nodded firmly: "I guess you bought it before, but forgot."
It turns out that the original owner did indeed own a yacht, and it was a custom-made luxury yacht worth several thousand dollars.
After Zhou Kantian left, Han Shicheng was stunned when he heard the news from his secretary over the phone.
This wealth came too suddenly. He had been so engrossed in the luxury cars and watches at home that he hadn't really looked at the original owner's assets. He never expected that there would even be a yacht!
Han Shicheng whistled, signaling his secretary to prepare the yacht for tomorrow.
The exhilarating feeling of being surrounded by onlookers while driving a luxury car washed over Han Shicheng once again, making him tremble and excitedly spin around and dance.
As I wandered around, I suddenly entered my own walk-in closet and faced a life-sized mirror.
Han Shicheng paused.
Turn to the side to look at your abdomen.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but his abs seemed less defined, and his stomach looked bigger than before.
What happened?!
Memories of his past life slowly seeped into his entire being.
The beer belly he had developed from staying at home for so long, drinking cheap alcohol and eating junk food, seemed to have returned to him.
This made him feel very uncomfortable.
Han Shicheng immediately called his secretary and asked him to find the best fitness coach to come to his home for guidance.
The secretary, observing the situation, asked, "Do you need a female coach?"
Han Shicheng paused; he hadn't thought about this question yet.
But I quickly realized that it's always better to have a beautiful woman by your side when you're working out than a man.
"Um."
Han Shicheng nodded, trying to appear serious.
With things arranged this way, by the time I woke up the next morning, there was no longer any information about the love-hate relationship within the Han Group online.
The main reason is that marketing accounts have leaked information:
Han Shicheng's parents were forced to separate when they were young and deeply in love. Years later, they reunited and became a couple. Meanwhile, his ex-wife and son, who had committed many evil deeds, suffered the consequences of their actions and disappeared.
Now she's secretly running back because she's jealous of Han Shicheng and spreading rumors about him everywhere, but the only heir to the Han Group can only be Han Shicheng.
Led by LY's online army, netizens began to feel sorry for Han Shicheng.
...
The group chat was bursting with laughter, saying, "They're all die-hard fans of Su Yunruo."
This time, they definitely won't lose money: [That's amazing! The son of a mistress, raised in a mansion since birth, can still portray himself as a victim. The ex-wife says: What bad luck!]
Please don't bother me: [I specifically watched the program yesterday, and I think he's changed a lot.]
Su Yunruo nodded, propping her head up with her hand. She agreed with Cheng Xiran's opinion, but this change was completely different from the one in the book, and it didn't seem like she was bound to a system.
That's strange.
Something felt off everywhere, but she couldn't figure out why.
Cheng Xiran: [As far as I know, Han Shicheng hasn't managed company affairs for a long time. His father has recently been consulting with psychiatrists in the United States, suspecting that he may have dissociative identity disorder.]
Tao Minmin: [Several of my friends said they often see him hanging out with some shady characters. Sometimes when they run into him and greet him, he acts like he doesn't even see them, which is really strange.]
Su Yunruo: [Any other gossip you can share?]
Tao Minmin: 【Oh, right, there's one more thing.】
[Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me.]
Tao Minmin: [I heard that Han Shicheng only sleeps with virgins.]
Su Yunruo was taken aback for a moment. [His image as an ordinary man had become even more three-dimensional.]
Tao Minmin excitedly typed: [I heard about this from someone else. There's an unwritten rule at the nightclub where the last brawl happened: all the new girls have to be "blessed" by Han Shicheng.]
The concept of "consecration" is a custom there, and some idiots think that taking a woman's virginity is something to brag about.
Oh, Han Se-sung is such an idiot.
Tao Minmin: [Another type—one body for a thousand men. I don't think he's much cleaner than a prostitute.]
Su Yunruo: [Wouldn't Pei Xue be visibly green with envy? Lately, I keep seeing marketing accounts on Weibo praising their true love.]
Tao Minmin: [She probably knows in her heart that dating Han Shicheng means she can gain a lot, no matter what. I heard there are people who specialize in getting pregnant for rich second-generation heirs, and they can make hundreds of millions from one.]
Knock knock knock.
Jiang Chunrou knocked on the door and came in; the sisters' tea party was over.
Su Yunruo put her phone back in her bag and instructed Jiang Chunrou, "When you have time later, please look into Han Yao's ex-wife for me."
She felt that it was too boring for Han Shicheng to just keep talking; it would be more exciting if the other side came out.
As a listed company, the image of the company's leaders is particularly important for the Han Group.
If the image collapses, it might affect the stock price.
Jiang Chunrou nodded. "There's something I need to report to you."
"how?"
"Mr. Yu said he'll be back tomorrow."
Su Yunruo was stunned for a moment.
Oh, the money-losing product has finally finished its gilding and returned home.
Su Yunruo initially entered the entertainment industry to help alleviate poverty.
Yu Youqian, that idiot, thought he had a knack for business and opened a talent agency. In the first year, he invested tens of millions, built a tall office building, luxurious decorations, and hired high-paid agents... In the second year, he was in debt for hundreds of millions, and all his artists ran away.
So he turned his evil clutches to his close friend, targeting Su Yunruo directly.
That day, the weather was fine and sunny.
A master of Suzhou pipa storytelling and ballad singing came to visit, and the soft, melodious Suzhou dialect captivated everyone. In her excitement, Su Yunruo almost joined in the singing.
With such a great atmosphere and so many people... Yu Youqian, that idiot, had a microphone in his left hand and a flower in his right, kneeling on one knee. His posture scared Su Yunruo so much that she quickly said, "Get up quickly. I'll agree to anything except marriage."
So she became a female celebrity and even paid money to enter Youqian Entertainment to prevent bankruptcy.
If it weren't for the fact that Yu Youqian's mother and her own mother weren't best friends, Su Yunruo would have really wanted to send him to find somewhere cool to stay.
Two years ago, Su Yunruo couldn't stand him anymore, so she suggested to her mother that she send him abroad to study, which gave him a small escape.
Now this troublesome thing is back in China!
How did he pass his thesis? How did they let him graduate?
I should have sent him to Germany for graduate studies.
