Ning Chuchu tried to use the truth system to dig out Yunshu's secret, but failed. She quickly calmed down and began to search for other methods.

The first thing that came to her mind was the Jade Bracelet that had come in handy recently, but after pondering for a moment, she immediately ruled out this option.

After all, Yuzhuo was a traitor who lived in Yun Yirou and was lurking around her. She didn't dare let Yuzhuo know about such an important matter. If Yuzhuo was treacherous and told Yun Yirou about it, her plan would be ruined.

The jade bracelet can no longer be relied upon, and the truth system is not omnipotent. She cannot rely on the system's help for everything.

When the amount of information she currently has is too little, she cannot use the truth system to reveal the "secret" and get the truth she wants.

Even if she wants to get closer to the so-called truth through layers of reasoning, just like what happened just now, the answer given to her by the truth system is likely to be distorted to various angles. Such "truth" is correct, but it is useless to her.

Just like, with her current knowledge reserves, even if she possessed such a miraculous existence as the truth system, she would not be able to solve the world's major mathematical problems, biological secrets or physical formulas, because she had never set foot in these fields and did not even know some of the technical terms, so it was naturally impossible for her to explore those secrets.

So, the same reason applies to her desire to bring down Yun Shu this time. She has too little relevant information and doesn't even know which direction to investigate from, so her use of the system is useless.

What's more, even if Ning Chuchu can use the truth system to find out some truths from many years ago, in order to bring down Yun Shu in the end, she must produce solid evidence.

Just like the previous time, if Xie Jinqiu hadn't been alert and discovered Yun Shu's private moves and found the corresponding evidence, Ning Chuchu would not have been able to give Yun Shu a heavy blow.

It was the same now. She wanted Ning Guangzhong to see Yun Shu's true face, so she had to put the truth in front of him.

Of course, if the truth buff could be added to Yun Shu, it might also have a miraculous effect...

But no matter what, she must first find some clues and touch some truth in reality.

As long as she had a rough grasp of some clues, it would be easier for her to use the truth system to find out the truth, or to give Yun Shu the truth buff and guide her to self-destruct.

After making up her mind, Ning Chuchu immediately began to investigate the matter.

The circle of wealthy families is always complicated. Each family has some connections and resources. It is easy to investigate anything in private. Ning Chuchu contacted a trusted private detective and offered him a high price to investigate Yun Shu's background, focusing on the time when Yun Shu and Ning Guangzhong had just been involved more than ten years ago.

Having said that, if she hadn't been tied to the truth system and hadn't forced Yun Shu into a desperate situation by accident, she really wouldn't have been able to uncover the secrets between her scumbag father and stepmother.

At least for the past ten years, she had always thought that her scumbag father simply fell in love with Yun Shu, so she never thought of asking someone to investigate their past.

Now is the time to let the truth come out.

Before finding someone to investigate Yun Shu, Ning Chuchu's heart moved, and she said tentatively: "If I want to bring down Yun Shu, the key is to start with... Hong Wu."

Ning Chuchu was delighted at first, as she actually managed to find some clues. Then she fell into deep thought again.

Who is this Hongwu?

All the characters for "Hunter" have been decided and the start of filming is on schedule.

Ning Chuchu is not only the heroine of the film, but also the largest investor of the film. She wants to use this role to help her win an award, and also wants this film to help her make a lot of money, so she is very concerned about this film and supervises the preparation of the film throughout the process.

Before they had the chance to officially announce the film's production team and starring cast, a piece of news suddenly emerged and swept the entire Internet.

An entertainment news agency called Big Fish published an article: "Shocking! Popular actress Ning Chuchu had a night out with a movie star, is it possible that something good is about to happen?!"

As soon as this gimmicky news was released, it attracted the attention of many netizens. The key point is that this news also included photos. Although the two people in the photos were covered, it can be clearly seen from several angles that the woman is Ning Chuchu, who is currently very popular.

The man's identity was a little vague, but the news said he was a certain movie emperor, so people started to speculate.

[Oh my god! Is Sister Ning in love? Who is she with? ]

[A certain movie star… which movie star? Tell me! ]

[When I think of the best actor, the first person that comes to my mind is Pei Wangai. ]

[It's impossible for Pei Wang to be like this? He has been out of the entertainment industry for so many years, and I haven't heard that he has any connection with Ning Chuchu. ]

This scandal broke out not long ago, and even Ning Chuchu had no time to react, but some people quickly jumped in to "suck blood" like sharks smelling blood.

The identity of the "certain actor" in the scandal has not yet been confirmed. Netizens are still heatedly discussing who this "actor" is, when a certain actor jumped out first.

Yi Jun's studio immediately posted a Weibo post, which solemnly stated that the actor Yi Jun and Miss Ning Chuchu were just ordinary friends and there was absolutely no ambiguous relationship between them. Netizens were asked not to make unwarranted speculations.

As soon as this statement was made, it instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Originally, no one guessed that the "Best Actor" was Yi Jun, but after Yi Jun's clarification, it seemed like he was trying to cover up something.

In addition, there were many internet operatives who were trying to stir up trouble. For a moment, everyone subconsciously thought that the people in the photo were Yi Jun and Ning Chuchu, and Yi Jun's clarification at this time was to cover up the relationship between them.

Soon, the rumor that "Ning Chuchu and Yi Jun are in love" became a hot topic, and the entire Internet was discussing this explosive news.

Yi Jun's team hid behind him and watched his rising popularity, smiling so much that their mouths stretched to their ears.

Ning Chuchu is indeed popular. She can attract so much attention with just a little bit of popularity. This quarter’s KPI is guaranteed!

As for Yi Jun, who was directing the team to carry out a series of operations, he showed a very proud smile.

Even if it is revealed that the actor in the photo is not him, no one can blame him. After all, Yi Jun has already stated that the person is not him. What does it have to do with him if netizens like to spread their own opinions?

I have to say that Yi Jun used this move skillfully. He didn't even give anyone any reason to criticize him for trying to gain popularity.

After learning about this, Ning Chuchu twitched her lips speechlessly and complained to Sister Zhang: "This Yi Jun is really good at taking advantage of others."

It would be fine if he just frequently took advantage of Pei Wang's popularity, but now he's also taking advantage of her.

Is he a rag spirit? He rubs here and there every day.

And his response was very subtle. No one had guessed that the best actor was him, but he stood up to "clarify" it. The tea flavor was really strong.

Ning Chuchu was very upset. She had always been the one taking advantage of others, and no one else could take advantage of her!

System: "...Are you feeling proud of taking advantage of others?"

Sister Zhang looked at the scandal without any worries. After all, Ning Chuchu and Pei Wang were innocent. Feng Yifan was even there that day, but the Dayu News Agency was so cunning as to cut Feng Yifan off.

This scandal should be easily cleared up.

But Sister Zhang had other plans. She stroked her chin and asked, "Chu Chu, how about we clarify this later?"

Ning Chuchu was slightly stunned, "Why?" It would be better to suppress this kind of groundless scandal as soon as possible.

Sister Zhang said with a soft "tsk" and analyzed with her, "Aren't you planning to officially announce the movie "Hunter" recently? This is the popularity that is delivered to you by the Internet!"

"Besides, the ones photographed this time are you and Mr. Pei. When Mr. Pei's identity is revealed, it will be a huge sensation!"

Sister Zhang became more and more excited as she spoke. She held Ning Chuchu's shoulders and asked, "Why don't you take this opportunity to vaguely acknowledge the scandal? It's a hundred benefits to be paired with the movie emperor Pei Wang! When "Hunter" is released, it will definitely help bring in a lot of box office!"

"Chu Chu, didn't you appear on the dating variety show before just to find someone to hype up your CP and gain more popularity?"

"Now, the best couple pair has appeared, right?!"

The more Zhang thought about it, the more it made sense. Movies need to be promoted, and it is normal for the leading actors to have affairs and scandals during the promotional period. It can bring huge attention to the movie. Zhang didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this.

Ning Chuchu was slightly startled when she heard this.

Yes, she used to try her best to participate in the love variety show "Love" in order to find a suitable partner to hype up a couple and boost her popularity. But before she knew it, she had already put this idea far behind her.

She has gradually realized the joy of gaining glory through real works, and has long looked down on the "deviant way" of hyping up CPs.

So, Ning Chuchu smiled with relief and shook her head, saying, "No need, Sister Zhang. Let's clarify it as soon as possible."

Seeing that Sister Zhang seemed a little unwilling and wanted to persuade her again, Ning Chuchu said calmly: "I am confident in the quality of Hunter. It does not need hype to reach the height it deserves."

Ning Chuchu thought about it and gave Sister Zhang a heart-wrenching blow, "Also, I finally invited Pei Wang here with great difficulty. What if he gets mad at me because of the CP hype? Wouldn't that be a loss?"

Sister Zhang was stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly, "You are right. I will ask the public relations team to prepare for clarification."

"No need, I'll do it myself." Ning Chuchu smiled slightly, with an inexplicable dangerous meaning flashing in her peach blossom eyes.

So, not long after, Ning Chuchu’s Weibo, which was almost covered with weeds, suddenly posted a new update.

@宁楚楚V:

Hello @大鱼新聞社, I have a few questions.

There were three of us having dinner together that day. Why did your news agency specifically cut out another person?

Also, since you all said that the target of my scandal is "a certain movie star", that means you actually know his identity, right? So why don't you just reveal his name directly?

Are you planning to release the news in two steps to double the popularity?

Unfortunately, I hate it when others take advantage of me.

So - let's move aside, the real person is here to reveal the information. :)

First of all, the person I was involved in the scandal with was actor Pei Wang Pei. We were traveling with a man named Feng Yifan.

The reason we were together that day was to discuss cooperation matters.

Now that we've come to this, I'd just like to ask everyone to pay attention to my new movie - "Hunter".

Pei Wang and I played the male and female protagonists in the film, and Feng Yifan was the film director.

There is not much to say about Actor Pei. He is a young genius with superb acting skills. His performance in the movie will definitely not disappoint anyone.

Feng Yifan is also a very talented new director. This movie will surely allow him to leave his name in the film industry. When his fame is raised, he should no longer encounter the problem of being cut off in group photos. @大鱼新聞社, you really don't respect Mr. Feng.

I would like to point out that apart from the recent meeting with Mr. Pei due to film collaboration, we have never had any contact before, so the scandal is completely fabricated. Please respect us and stop making unwarranted speculations.

That's what happened, there's no scandal involved, everyone who wanted to watch the show can go home.

By the way, please focus on yourself and don't try to take advantage of me. Not every colleague I have worked with can become my friend. :)

All in all, I hope everyone will support Hunter. My performance will not disappoint you.

As soon as Ning Chuchu's crisp and unambiguous clarification Weibo was released, the number of reposts and comments increased rapidly.

[Hahaha, your Sister Ning is still your Sister Ning, so strong! ]

[It’s so funny, how many people were slapped in the face by this one Weibo post. ]

[Sister Ning told Yi Jun: You clarified it very well, don’t clarify it again next time. Get lost if you want to take advantage of my popularity!]

[It was so funny, Yi Jun even said in a gossipy way that he and Ning Chuchu were just friends, but Ning Chuchu didn't even acknowledge the identity of "friend" and just said they were ordinary colleagues, hahaha! ]

[Yi Jun’s name didn’t even appear in Sister Ning’s Weibo… It really blocked his desire to take advantage of the popularity hahaha! ]

[Wait! You guys got the point wrong, didn't you?! Isn't the point that Sister Ning is going to work with Mr. Pei? ]

[Ahhh! My male god and goddess are going to work together! So excited! 】

[Fuck, after knowing that the Best Actor refers to Best Actor Pei, I inexplicably hope that the scandal is true...]

[Me too. Can I dream of a love story that I fell in love with during a drama? ]

[Sister Ning is amazing! Pei Wangdu hasn’t acted for so many years, but she was able to invite him...]

[Last time, Sister Ning and her stepbrother Sui Feng were involved in a scandal, and Sister Ning took the opportunity to promote her new variety show "My Brothers and Sisters"; this time, Sister Ning and Pei Wang were involved in a scandal, and she took the opportunity to promote her new movie "Hunter". Hmm... I feel a little weird.]

[It's so funny, Sister Ning is really a very career-oriented woman! ]

[Family members, don’t be fooled by any more scandals about Sister Ning! What’s a man or not will only affect the speed at which Sister Ning draws her sword! ]

[You’re right! Sister Ning only cares about her career! She just needs to focus on the beauty herself! ]

…

Ning Chuchu spoke out with great force, venting her anger. Moreover, she decisively sued the Big Fish News Agency, which taught them a lesson. They probably won't dare to speak nonsense again in the future.

Ning Chuchu was feeling very proud, while Yi Jun, on the other hand, was feeling very depressed.

"Brother Yi, what should we do?" Yi Jun's agent wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling extremely bitter.

They have done this kind of popularity-seeking thing before, and usually the one being taken advantage of suffers the most. After all, we are all in the entertainment industry, and we will meet each other sooner or later, so there is no need to tear each other apart.

In addition, Yi Jun acted covertly and was able to completely clear himself of all charges. Even if the other party wanted to reprimand him, they often could not find evidence and could only swallow their anger in silence.

But the old saying "If you walk by the river often, you will get your shoes wet" really applies. Didn't they hit a wall this time? !

The agent thought about it and couldn't help but complain: "This Ning Chuchu is so unkind. You two are going to film a variety show together in the future, and she just stepped on your face like this..."

Opposite him, Yi Jun had already taken off the mask of elegance and gentleness. His face was gloomy, his eyes were fierce, and his whole body exuded a terrible hostility.

Later, he seemed to be dissatisfied with the nagging agent and slammed the table and shouted, "Shut up! It's too noisy!"

The agent was so frightened that he shrank his neck and immediately fell silent. However, he looked at the increasing number of ridicules against Yi Jun on the Internet, and his brows were almost knotted. In the end, he still resisted the risk of being insulted by Yi Jun and asked carefully: "Brother Yi, what should we do now? Should we respond?"

Yi Jun glanced at him calmly, and the dangerous coldness in his eyes made the agent tremble. He snorted coldly: "Fuck responding."

His expression was unpredictable, and he murmured to himself, "Ning Chuchu is such a ruthless woman, she doesn't show any mercy. No matter what I say now, I will be ridiculed by everyone."

Yi Jun thought for a moment and calmly ordered: "Our public relations team should not make any further response. Please ask the naval forces to come out and whitewash the situation. Just say... we issued a statement because someone speculated about my relationship with Ning Chuchu."

Although the reality is completely reversed, it was Yi Jun who released the statement first, which triggered all kinds of speculation about his relationship with Ning Chuchu. But what does it matter? As long as the result is in his favor, it's fine.

It has to be said that Yi Jun is a very smart person and has a thorough understanding of the various rules in the entertainment industry.

But he underestimated Ning Chuchu's popularity among passers-by.

As soon as the navy he bought left the stage, they were drowned out by the huge comments from passers-by and couldn't make any waves at all.

In front of Ning Chuchu's terrifying civic character and good popularity, all the navy and distortion of right and wrong seemed so powerless.

Finally, because of the persistent jumping of these navy soldiers, Yi Jun had another black spot that was ridiculed by others.

This result made Yi Jun smash a set of cups in his home on the spot. After he calmed down slowly after breathing heavily, he covered his face in despair.

Ning Chuchu was such a weird woman. He had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and although he hadn't been successful in everything, everything had gone smoothly for him. But he always stumbled because of her.

At this point, Yi Jun could only lie down and let himself be ridiculed. He was just greedy and coveted Ning Chuchu's popularity, but he failed to get it and ended up getting into trouble.

And... Yi Jun looked at the movie "Hunter" that was being promoted all over the Internet with heavy eyes, and couldn't help but clench his fists.

He just won the Best Actor award this year and is enjoying great success. He is eager to go one step further and win more awards to dispel the shadow cast by the talented actor Pei Wang.

Yi Jun saw the script of Hunter by chance and immediately saw the potential of this movie. However, the male lead he chose fell on that man!

Pei Wang, Pei Wang...

He didn't want to live in Pei Wang's shadow anymore!

Later, as if remembering something, Yi Jun suddenly had a crazy and twisted smile on his face, and even had a sense of anticipation that he was eager to try...

After posting the clarification on Weibo, Ning Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.

Sister Zhang watched her type out the words one by one, and she was really a little scared. She asked hesitantly: "Chu Chu, are we going too far? Yi Jun didn't do anything..."

Ning Chuchu raised her eyebrows and sneered, "His eating manners are already ugly enough, and you still call this nothing? I hate people who try to attract attention the most."

Sister Zhang sighed hesitantly, "After all, he has some status in the circle. We never know when we might need this connection..."

"No need." Ning Chuchu's voice was calm but full of confidence. "Not to mention that I don't need to look at his expression now, even if I become destitute in the future, I will never ask him for help."

Is it true that a scumbag like Yi Jun, who is full of evil intentions, is worthy of her making friends with him?

Moreover, according to the system, she is the heroine of this world and will eventually reach the pinnacle of the entertainment industry. There is no need for her to compromise herself.

So...of course she can do whatever she wants.

Seeing this, Sister Zhang could only shake her head helplessly and stopped trying to persuade him. But she soon remembered another thing, "By the way, Chuchu, shouldn't you explain this to Mr. Xie?"

Ning Chuchu frowned in confusion, "Explain what?"

Sister Zhang looked at her angrily and said: "Although you and Pei Wang are innocent, there was a lot of rumors on the Internet before. As Xie Jinqiu is your fiancé, I can't guarantee that you will feel uncomfortable after seeing it for a while. You'd better explain to him carefully. It would be better to avoid him having a grudge."

Ning Chuchu was silent for a moment, then said, "I have already clarified everything. There is no need to explain anything in private, right?"

Sister Zhang sighed softly, "No matter how generous Mr. Xie is, he is still a man!"

She knew Ning Chuchu always had her own opinions, so she didn't say much. After giving her a brief reminder, she left in a hurry, "You can handle it yourself. I'll go take care of the public relations matter first."

After Sister Zhang left, Ning Chuchu stayed alone in the room, unable to help but become dazed.

Before Sister Zhang reminded her, Ning Chuchu never thought of Xie Jinqiu.

After realizing this, Ning Chuchu was a little dazed. She used to care about this powerful fiancé so much that she was very careful in everything she did, fearing that she would displease him.

If she had been involved in a scandal in the past, the first thing she would have thought of would be how to explain it to her fiancé so that he wouldn't harbor a grudge against her.

But before she knew it, she seemed to care less and less about it.

It turns out that when a person is strong enough, his mind will gradually become open.

Today, Ning Chuchu is both beautiful and wealthy. Not only is she doing well in the entertainment industry, she has also quickly accumulated a huge amount of capital through investment. Seeing that her future is visibly bright, she is no longer as...busy as before.

For the first time, Ning Chuchu seriously thought about her relationship with Xie Jinqiu.

They were united only for the sake of profit, and there was no sincerity between them. Until now, it was nothing more than some career entanglements.

Xie Jinqiu provided her with resources several times, but Ning Chuchu also rewarded him twice as much by relying on her strong ability to carry goods and her high popularity. So so far, it's been a win-win cooperation between the two, and there's no question of who owes whom, or who's sorry to whom.

This means...a relatively equal and distant marriage relationship will be much less troublesome to dissolve.

For the first time, Ning Chuchu seriously reflected on this relationship - did she really need a loveless marriage?

After all, she had always been enthusiastic about the engagement with Xie Jinqiu, and she was the only one who was protecting it carefully before. Xie Jinqiu has always had an all-or-nothing attitude towards this and didn't pay much attention to her nominal fiancée.

Until recently, his attitude had improved and he seemed to be more patient and gentle with her, but this was still far from being called "love".

So...is this "engagement" that is not expected by both parties really necessary?

Also, Sister Zhang asked her to explain to Xie Jinqiu... Ning Chuchu unconsciously picked up her phone and found Xie Jinqiu's number.

Should she press it?

After pressing it, what should you say?

Should I patiently explain and persuade as usual to maintain this fiancé relationship, or...
