"Director Xiao, what should we do? Should we post a clarification on Weibo?" The assistant's heart was in her throat. If this matter wasn't dealt with, it would not only affect Xiao Wang's reputation but also Lu Wanzheng's reputation, ultimately impacting the film's box office.
The assistant scratched his head, looking bewildered.
Wang Xiyou was unexpectedly brought in as the female lead, which was thought to be a rescue mission, but it turned out that the production team had invited a big shot, a big shot who would cause trouble.
Xiao Wang didn't say a word the whole time, and ignored his assistant. He took the phone from his assistant and looked at the content of the online exposé.
This "gossipmonger" described his revelations in such vivid detail, as if he had witnessed them firsthand.
As a veteran in the entertainment industry, he has been around for so many years and knows the IDs of some of the big gossip bloggers online very well. This is "Gossip Guru," who was the one who exposed Bai Yuan's scandals.
It seems that Wang Xiyou was most likely behind Bai Yuan's affair.
The photos posted by "Gossip Master" looked familiar. Xiao Wang recalled that it seemed to be near the end of filming in S City. He remembered that Lu Wanzheng came to him at that time, wanting to contact his wife through him.
He had just finished showering and was wearing a bathrobe when the doorbell rang. Without thinking much of it, he went to open the door.
It must have been when they were secretly filmed. Their filming wasn't kept secret, but the hotel's security wasn't bad, so there shouldn't have been any paparazzi.
Seeing that Xiao Wang remained silent, and the small space was too quiet—so quiet you could hear a pin drop—the assistant had no choice but to speak up to ease the awkwardness. "The background of this photo looks familiar; it seems to be a hotel in S City. It's such a coincidence that this photo was taken."
Is it a coincidence?
Xiao Wang didn't think so. To think that one scandal could ruin Lu Wanzheng was a gross underestimation of her. Wang Xiyou must have something else up his sleeve. This photo probably wasn't accidental either; Lu Wanzheng was likely being watched by Wang Xiyou during that period.
On set, Wang Xiyou vividly remembers the scene where he tried to overshadow others but ended up being overshadowed instead.
Given Wang Xiyou's petty personality, it's not normal for him to suddenly start filming quietly; he might be holding back something big.
Now that he's furious, he's pulled out all the stops.
Just as Xiao Wang had expected, not long after, a prominent whistleblower posted a Weibo post.

This Weibo post instantly propelled Lu Wanzheng to fame, but also drew widespread ridicule.
Being a mistress is bad enough, but getting pregnant is even worse. Is she trying to use her child to gain status?
So what's the subtle difference between Lu Wanzheng's current behavior and Wang Xiyou's mother's before? How can she have the nerve to criticize Wang Xiyou's mother? They're the same kind of people, the pot calling the kettle black?
[The biggest scandal of the year is getting more and more exciting.]
[Lu Wanzheng's studio is practically dead now. Is this a complete abandonment of her, a plan to shelve her career?]
[This is hilarious! One scandal after another. Has Lu Wanzheng offended someone? But if we have to say who she offended, it's only Wang Xiyou. I never expected that Wang Xiyou, who seems gentle and generous on the surface, is actually a hypocrite. He pretends to be weak in front of his fans, but behind their backs, he exposes Lu Wanzheng's dirty secrets.]
As a professional, aside from a simple blurring of the people around the subject, this photo shows no signs of retouching. In other words, the person in this photo is indeed Lu Wanzheng.
