As a female celebrity and public figure, Huang Yiyi's daily outings are naturally constantly being watched by paparazzi.
Not to mention that the recent trending topic of divorce has brought the matter into the spotlight once again.
He's a figure at the center of controversy!
So when she left home in her car, her itinerary was already being watched and followed, with people trying to take some sensational photos.
The paparazzi staking out the flowerbeds outside the restaurant never expected to capture such a headline story today.
He immediately took the resources and began contacting various newspapers and media outlets.
They also used their connections to get the message to Huang Yiyi's agency.
One news item, multiple sides affected.
This is a common tactic used by paparazzi; from day one, they learn what it means to maximize profits!
at the same time.
Huang Yiyi has taken her child to the largest sports goods store in the area with Lin Chu and Ge Lan, where they are selecting the most suitable ski equipment with Ge Lan's help.
With Lin Chu's appearance, Zhuangzhuang, who was always aloof and taciturn, became lively like a normal little boy.
The three children followed the adults, chasing and playing with each other, laughing and having a great time.
Since they are all public figures and important customers, the store naturally arranged for dedicated staff to accompany them and help take care of their children.
This way, we can avoid disturbing other guests and also avoid being bothered by passersby or fans.
However, while Ge Lan was helping the children try on their ski suits, Huang Yiyi frowned slightly, glanced at her phone messages, and let out a soft snort.
"Neuropathy……"
Snap!
As he spoke, he turned off his phone and casually stuffed it into his bag.
Lin Chugang had just signaled to the staff to pack up the selected chemical equipment when he turned around and saw Huang Yiyi's furrowed brows and annoyed expression.
Some people immediately went up to ask out of curiosity.
"What's wrong? Is it something to do at work?"
Given the relationship between the two, he didn't intend to ask about the details further.
He just said something perfunctory, a token of concern.
When Huang Yiyi heard Lin Chu's question, she did not try to avoid the question; instead, she sighed helplessly.
"Yes, it was a message from the company's agent."
"It's nothing serious, no need..."
"Oh well, I'd better tell you anyway, to avoid causing you any trouble."
Lin Chu was also surprised that Huang Yiyi would take the initiative to share, and she chuckled softly in surprise.
"You're causing me trouble?"
"Then I'd like to hear what happened."
Huang Yiyi glanced at Ge Lan, who was taking the child to the fitting room, before speaking helplessly.
"Here's the thing, the agent just got some information through some connections in the industry."
"Just now, after we finished eating at the hotel, when we went downstairs to drive away, a paparazzi was hiding in the flower bed downstairs and took pictures. He happened to capture our cars leaving the hotel one after the other."
"That paparazzi reporter has photos and videos in his hands and is deliberately leaking them in an attempt to extort money."
At this point, Huang Yiyi felt it was becoming increasingly incomprehensible.
He simply snorted coldly.
"He's completely insane, is he obsessed with making money?"
"What's wrong with having a meal together?"
"Not to mention that Ge Lan was with us too; she was in the car at the time, and they even had their children with them."
"So what if we release the video and the news?"
"It's nothing more than another piece of speculative gossip that people fantasize about and spread rumors."
"These news media outlets are really disgusting."
As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Lin Chu's reaction, somewhat worried that this trivial matter would delay their skiing trip.
Lin Chu chuckled dismissively when she heard Huang Yiyi's explanation.
"I thought it was something serious. He's just a paparazzi trying to extort money. Ignore him."
"A person with an upright character has nothing to fear."
"Instead of waiting for him to continue extorting money, we might as well help him expose the news directly."
Huang Yiyi was a little taken aback by these words.
"Huh? What news?"
Just then, Gran came out with the little ones who had finished trying on their clothes.
Lin Chu immediately smiled and waved to her.
"Hey, Ge Lan, come over here!"
"Let's take a group photo together."
After greeting Ge Lan, he smiled and looked at Huang Yiyi, who was also trying on ski clothes.
"Of course it's the news about us going skiing together."
"Instead of waiting for those paparazzi to resell the videos and photos and extort money from them, why don't we just post them online ourselves, openly and honestly?"
"The itinerary was originally arranged during the live broadcast, what's so shameful about it?"
"Let's strike first and thwart his plans!"
Upon hearing Lin Chu's explanation, Huang Yiyi was taken aback at first, but then simply smiled.
For a moment, I felt like my brain was going to freeze.
"Yes, how come I didn't think of that?"
"I just took a few photos while I was eating, I'll post them here too!"
Although she said that, Huang Yiyi still secretly savored her feelings while looking through the photos on her phone.
She inexplicably found herself feeling a bit nervous, as if she had done something wrong.
It's utterly baffling.
When she saw the message from her agent asking about it, she instinctively wanted to hide the truth and avoid mentioning that she had been to a gathering with Lin Chu and Ge Lan.
Seeing Lin Chu's nonchalant way of handling things now, she felt a little dizzy.
What is there to be ashamed of?
Ge Lan brought their child closer, listened to Lin Chu's explanation, and immediately nodded and smiled without hesitation.
"Okay, come on, let's take a picture together in our ski suits."
"Hey, how about this? We'll buy the gear and head to the ski resort in a bit, then we can take the photos there, okay?"
"Then I'll post updates with you guys."
"Anyway, I've already bought everything. It's only an hour's drive from here to the ski resort."
"In such a short time, surely that paparazzi reporter wouldn't actually sell the video?"
"Let's keep him hanging for a bit and play with him!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
With Ge Lan's suggestion, Huang Yiyi and Lin Chu's eyes lit up and they immediately agreed!
Huang Yiyi even directly told her agent to find a way to contact that paparazzi reporter, indicating that she was willing to pay him hush money and buy the video and photos.
Don't agree to pay for at least two hours; let him have hope first.
Having made arrangements, Huang Yiyi and her group immediately took a group photo at the sports goods counter, then paid and headed straight to the ski resort with their equipment!
Meanwhile, on the other side...
In the dark, cramped studio of a rented room, a paparazzi reporter, smoking a cigarette and waiting for a reply, leisurely scrolls through short videos to pass the time.
Ding-dong!
Suddenly, a friend in the circle who was helping to spread the news sent me a message.
"Dongzi, you're going to strike it rich!"
"I just received news that, in addition to the marketing accounts and self-media outlets we regularly work with, some newspapers have also sent us quotes, and two major clients want to buy your videos and photos!"
"One of them is easy to guess: it's the agent of the big star Huang Yiyi, who's very eager to talk to you about the price!"
"The other one, hehe, is a lawyer, a female lawyer!"
