Chapter 3 I know he likes me from the photo
Shi Sanlin drove Yu You to the hospital for emergency treatment. The doctor arranged for a blood test and a flu test.
After coming out, Yu Youan sat quietly on the chair waiting for the result, his long eyelashes drooping in shadow, his cheeks slightly pale, and his clear face like a fragile porcelain doll, causing several passers-by to turn their heads to look at him frequently.
The test results came out quickly, showing some fever and mild anemia. The doctor asked me to take some medicine and rest more.
Yu You held the paper receipt and felt relieved.
Fortunately, it was just a common fever, so he didn't have to worry about turning down the opportunity to play a small role that Brother Shi had worked so hard to get for him.
Shi Sanlin drove Yu You back to his residence.
——This is the accommodation apartment provided by the company for young artists. It is very small, but it is quiet and comfortable for you to live alone.
Shi Sanlin packed the dress that Yu You had taken off into a bag, preparing to send it to the dry cleaner and then return it to the brand.
As he walked out, he told Yu You: "Xiao Yu, have a good rest. I will pick you up in a couple of days to visit the director on the set."
Yu You walked him out, nodded obediently, and asked, "Do I need to make any preparations?"
"My sister has already informed them in advance. The role only has two or three lines, so there's still time to study it when we get there. Don't worry, just stay calm first."
As he was speaking, Shi Sanlin took out his cell phone and found that he had forgotten to turn off the mute mode after returning from the banquet. There were more than a dozen missed calls on the screen.
He asked in a puzzled tone, "Why does my sister call me so many times?"
Shi Sanlin called back without saying a few words. He stood still, exclaimed in shock, and subconsciously glanced at Yu You.
Yu You stopped and felt something vaguely.
"Yeah, okay..."
Shi Sanlin's expression was solemn as he hurriedly explained into the phone, "No, sister, I was standing nearby at the time. It really was an accident. I just took Xiaoyu to the hospital for treatment. I know, and I'll tell Xiaoyu."
The call was disconnected.
Yu You asked: "Brother Shi, what happened?"
"It's a little bit of a thing, not a big deal, not a small one either." Shi Sanlin smiled awkwardly, "You and Mr. Jiang were photographed at the banquet..."
Several new entries quietly appeared on the hot search list, ranking high.
#Xingtian Entertainment Jiang Zong's underground love affair exposed#
#Jiang Zong shows his love in public#
#General Jiang's large-scale scandalous photos#
When I clicked on it, I saw that one of the most popular marketing accounts had posted a photo.
The photo is covered with dense watermarks, and the background is blurred, focusing the visual center on the two people hugging each other.
Jiang Xunzhou's profile was clear. He lowered his head slightly and looked at the young man in his arms. His sharp jawline was tense and his cold eyebrows and eyes showed a hint of worry.
The young man buried his face in Jiang Xunzhou's arms, and his specific appearance could not be seen clearly. His thin body and narrow waist were tightly held by the mature man's broad hands, which made people blush and their hearts beat faster.
@大排面的泳日日記: [Mr. Jiang's secret love affair is suspected to have been exposed! He couldn't help himself tonight and hugged his lover at the banquet, publicly displaying his affection. Does anyone know who Mr. Jiang was hugging?]
There are already tens of thousands of reposts and comments below, and the popularity is still rising.
[You ask me? Am I a marketing account or are you a marketing account? Am I the one on the scene or are you the one on the scene?]
[I'm shocked! This photo is so blurry. Was it taken with a landline phone?]
I remember you were the same account that used the same phone wallpaper to expose Mr. Jiang's affair with a popular female celebrity. Didn't you get sued and publicly apologize? You're at it again, getting stronger and stronger.
[No, I clicked on the trending search for the explicit scandal photo. Explicit, you tell me that’s it? ? ]
[For Mr. Jiang, who has never had any scandals before, these are indeed large-scale scandal photos, hahahaha]
【Where's the front face? Show the other person's front face instead.】
There were a bunch of comments below, all taking turns guessing who the other rumored boyfriend was. Fans joined in the fray, getting so excited they almost started a fight.
Yu You pursed his lips and scrolled through the comments below. Shi Sanlin said beside him, "There must be a marketing account at tonight's banquet. He took a picture of you and quoted it out of context here. But it's not clear whether he has other photos of you."
It is well known in the circle that this kind of posting of photos to expose the melon but only half of it is done to create hype and to wait for the owner of the melon to offer a price to buy it out. If the price cannot be negotiated, more photos will be released later to earn topic traffic.
Yu You asked: "How does the company plan to deal with this?"
Shi Sanlin said, "I guess the PR department is already in talks with them. It's quite difficult to get a piece of Mr. Jiang's gossip. I imagine they'll ask for a high price."
He then said thankfully, "Luckily it's you. If it were a small celebrity from another company, they would have jumped out immediately to expose themselves and try to gain traffic."
Companies of some small celebrities have started to take action one after another. They took screenshots of some seemingly correct back photos and posted them under these hot topics, pretending to be passers-by and trying to analyze whether they are the same person.
Fans mixed in the comments, desperately posting refined photos, while unifying the words [Sorry to take away my xx, no appointment, welcome to follow the popular work "xxxx"]
It's a complete mess.
Shi Sanlin warned: "Xiao Yu, please don't leave. We don't know whether the marketing account has captured you yet. As long as they haven't, everything will be fine later..."
Yu You said: "It must have been photographed."
Shi Sanlin opened his eyes wide: "Huh?"
"From this photo, you can also tell where the person who took the photo was standing at the time."
Yu You pointed at the photo on the screen, lowering his eyes. "It's right at 8 o'clock, right where President Jiang and I are. It's close to the center of the banquet hall. It could only be a waiter carrying a tray, and he could be using a pinhole camera. If he just takes a few steps to the side, he can capture my face, or even take a more ambiguous photo."
When the hot search topic was refreshed again, the update posted by the source marketing account showed that it had been deleted by the author, and then the entire topic was directly blown up.
Yu You quit and found that other hot search topics had also disappeared from the list one after another.
Shi Sanlin, standing nearby, also noticed this and muttered in a panic, "This must be Xingtian's PR department taking action. This means that the marketing account really did take your photo, and the two sides have already finalized the discussion..."
Yu You still remembered what Shi Sanlin had mentioned before.
——Those little stars who tried to take shortcuts to climb up to Jiang Xunzhou all ended up like this without exception.
"Brother Shi."
Yu You looked at Shi Sanlin, his palms sweating, and asked, "Although it wasn't my original intention, this matter is also related to me. Will I be banned too?"
He came to this completely unfamiliar world, all his previous efforts were wasted, and he became penniless. He just wanted to return to the place he loved and climb to the top of everyone's attention again.
But I also know that I am worthless now.
If someone is taken out on, a single word from someone in a higher position can easily turn him into an abandoned pawn.
He was unwilling to accept it.
There was a cluster of warm flames burning in Yu You's eyes as he stared at Shi Sanlin closely.
Shi Sanlin stammered, "I, I don't know either. I can only wait and see. Even if it's a ban, the company won't issue any specific documents. It all depends on what President Jiang's attitude is. Don't worry, if it's really banned..."
Yu You said: "Brother Shi, I want to stay."
The boy's voice was soft, but his eyes were firm and burning, flashing with bright ambition.
It is the stubbornness of refusing to admit defeat even when thrown into a desperate situation.
Shi Sanlin was stunned, as if he had just gotten to know the person in front of him all over again today.
The boy I met at the beginning worked in a convenience store. The cuffs of his clothes were washed white. When he heard that he could earn more money after joining the circle, he nodded in agreement.
After the video went viral, he took advantage of the popularity to help get a few activities, but the boy did not understand the rules of interaction in the circle, and the shots of his appearance were cut into pieces because there was no explosive point. The initial popularity gradually subsided, and the fans who gathered there quickly climbed new walls.
The young man once asked him privately in frustration: "Brother Shi, am I not suitable for this job? I originally wanted to earn more money to give back to the welfare home so that the children can live better and have more choices, but this place doesn't seem to be suitable for me..."
But now it seems different.
Shi Sanlin's attitude also became serious, and he nodded heavily: "Xiao Yu, I will do my best to help you."
·
A stack of photos was scattered on the coffee table in the lounge.
"Mr. Jiang, we've confirmed with the other party that all backups have been deleted and a confidentiality agreement has been signed. Do you need to review it?"
The assistant asked, holding the document.
Jiang Xunzhou sat on the sofa, rubbed his brows, and said, "No need, just take care of it."
Sitting next to him was a long-time friend, who was more than happy to add insult to injury. He held a photo in his hand, examining it carefully, and said jokingly, "This is the first time our CEO Jiang has been involved in a scandal, right? No wonder they paid a huge price to buy it. The angle of the photo is really tricky. It looks like you two were kissing in public. Who would believe you weren't dating if this photo was released?"
The two people in the photo have outstanding looks and are well matched in figure. The photo captures the moment when Yu You bumps into Jiang Xunzhou's arms.
The man has a handsome and mature face, staring blankly with his head down. The boy slightly tilts his head back, his eyes lightly closed, his lips are rosy, and he looks soft and kissable, with the background blurred.
From a distance, it looks like lovers kissing.
Jiang Xunzhou glanced at the ambiguous photo, his ears felt a little hot, and his Adam's apple moved slightly. He was teased and felt a little thirsty. He picked up the water cup and took a sip to cover it up.
The assistant said with a stern look, "Boss Jiang, Boss Xu, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."
He took a step back, then remembered something and quickly asked, "By the way, Mr. Jiang, about this Mr. Yu..."
He paused at the right moment, waiting for Jiang Xunzhou to give him some direction on how to proceed.
Jiang Xunzhou said, "Since the photos haven't been sent out, let's just pretend nothing happened."
The assistant understood what he meant and nodded: "Okay, Mr. Jiang."
The friend also knew Jiang Xunzhou's usual handling style and raised an eyebrow: "Why, this time, seeing that the child is good-looking, you are showing some extra leniency?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I've had someone check it out."
Jiang Xunzhou sneered: "The man in charge of taking pictures is in cahoots with the waiter who splashed my shirt. The surveillance camera captured them talking in the storage room. This matter really has nothing to do with Yu You."
The friend tutted a few times, then took the next photo he had sent in for a price and laughed, "This one's also well taken. It really looks like the real thing."
Jiang Xunzhou looked down.
The photo was clear, capturing his back as he went up the stairs and the teenager at the bottom of the stairs.
The boy was looking up at him, his profile was beautiful and his cheeks were flushed.
Her eyes were moist and reflected the light, very bright, as if she was looking at the person she liked from afar.
Jiang Xunzhou raised the corner of his lips slightly, his tone containing the subtle pride of seeing through the truth: "I left, and he was still peeking at me. I knew he liked me, and he sprayed iris perfume to get my attention."
