Chapter 34 The Infamous Top Female Celebrity
At 9 a.m. on the second day, Jiang Mian, as usual, dragged her aged steps and slowly walked out of the office building elevator. Her hands, marked by the passage of time, took out a slightly rusty key from her pocket, preparing to unlock the U-shaped lock on the front door.
Looking up, I was surprised to find three strangers standing at the company entrance.
One was a man in his forties, dressed in a suit and tie, with a calm and reserved demeanor, like a seasoned business elite.
One was a woman in her 30s dressed in a business suit, with a friendly and polite smile, exuding the competence and charm of a professional woman.
The last one is quite exaggerated: a long black down jacket, large sunglasses, a large hat, and a black mask. Apart from being a petite woman, you can't tell anything about her.
Jiang Mian looked around suspiciously. There were a total of 6 units on their floor. Two of them had never been rented out since they opened, two had just gone bankrupt last month, and one company had been shut down by the police a few days ago. It seemed that their unit was indeed the only one still in operation.
In other words, these three people could only be looking for their company.
Jiang Mian tentatively asked, "??? Who are you looking for?"
"We're looking for General Manager Zhang," the three said in unison.
Jiang Mian: "".
To be honest, this is the first time since their company was founded that, apart from property management staff and delivery drivers, "people" have come to their door.
Using a rusty key to open the equally rusty U-lock, Jiang Mian welcomed the three people inside and arranged for them to stay in the company's conference room.
It was the same conference room Zhang Mo entered for the first time.
The walls were blackened, and there were simple plastic stools. The three people stood at the door of the conference room and remained silent for a few seconds, seemingly shocked by the simple environment.
But it seemed there was no other choice, so they had no choice but to sit inside.
As soon as they sat down, the woman in the business suit broke the silence: "This must be Mr. Ye. I watched the live stream a few days ago. You are truly a great brother."
Mr. Ye, dressed in a suit and tie, smiled and asked, "How should I address this young lady?"
"My name is Xu Wen. Today I officially join the Business Department of Shan Hai Live. Please give me your guidance."
As the two chatted, the petite woman, who was bundled up tightly, took off her hat and sunglasses one by one.
No one would have paid attention to such an ordinary behavior, but when her true colors were revealed to everyone, Xu Wen and Brother Ye were both stunned.
Xu Wen was shocked: "You...you're Han Xiao?!"
The woman named Han Xiao glanced over indifferently. She had an extremely pure face, as pure and flawless as the morning dew, much like the heroine in those youth campus dramas. However, she wore bright red lipstick that was completely incompatible with her appearance, and her eyeshadow was also extremely deep and seductive, making her look completely contradictory.
Han Xiao chuckled, her tone tinged with a hint of mockery: "I thought you business people wouldn't care about gossip in the entertainment industry."
Upon hearing this, both Xu Wen and Brother Ye had somewhat subtle expressions.
It's not that they care about gossip in the entertainment industry; it's just that Han Xiao's scandal a few months ago was so big that even people like them who don't pay much attention to the entertainment industry had heard about it.
Han Xiao, 24 years old, a former top female celebrity, has a story that is as dramatic as a rollercoaster.
At the age of 20, she participated in a singing competition variety show as an ordinary person. With her pure appearance and heavenly voice, she defeated a group of celebrities and won first place.
Since then, she has become a superstar. Her albums have achieved great success, winning numerous music awards both domestically and internationally. Her concerts are always sold out, with tickets extremely difficult to obtain. Even a cameo role in a movie earned her 2 billion yuan at the box office.
Until six months ago, all this glory came to an abrupt end.
Six months ago, top female star Han Xiao and the second son of the Ouyang family, who has a net worth of billions, got married in a flash without any warning. At that time, the two had only known each other for a month and claimed to have fallen in love at first sight.
However, it is quite common for female celebrities to marry wealthy businessmen, so while the general public was surprised, they didn't pay much attention.
—Until a month later, Han Xiao divorced the second son of the Ouyang family and took away 3 billion yuan of his property!
And just half a month after the divorce, she was photographed by paparazzi dancing intimately with a male model with a nice butt in a nightclub!
This series of scandals caused Han Xiao's image to plummet. The once top female star who was adored by millions of people instantly became an epic gold digger in the eyes of the public!
All collaborations, including endorsements, advertisements, and film and television projects, have been cancelled. All of his works are now filled with boycotts and negative reviews, and he is facing breach of commercial contracts, which will require him to bear huge legal responsibilities and compensation!
Then, more details about Han Xiao's life were unearthed.
Han Xiao, whose original name was Han Zhaodi, was born in a rural area and had a junior high school education. Her family was extremely poor; her mother was seriously ill and her father was elderly.
Her father was 53 years old when she was born, and he raised her by collecting garbage.
Now, this 77-year-old man still lives alone in a dilapidated garbage dump, completely unaware of his own daughter's glamorous and extravagant life as a big star.
A charity blogger with millions of followers also stepped forward and presented a video of Han Zhaodi when she was 16 years old.
At that time, they received a request for help from Han Zhaodi herself online, and traveled a long distance to help this poor family. They repaired the house, bought supplies, and found a job for Han Xiao, who had just graduated, in a nearby factory so that she could earn money while taking care of her parents.
In the video, the 16-year-old girl is dark-skinned and thin, with a flat nose and a face full of acne. She is clearly dissatisfied after hearing the factory's arrangements and asks the charity volunteers why they can't send her to a big city.
The charity volunteers analyzed her family situation for her, talking about her father's hardships over the years, not to mention that she also has a younger sister who is still in elementary school. They told her that she should think more about her family and not be so selfish.
Han Zhaodi finally accepted the job reluctantly.
At the time, the charity blogger thought that his good deeds would completely improve the poor family's situation. However, two years later, he received a call from Han Zhaodi's father, who said that Han Zhaodi had taken all the family's cash, received an advance on three months' wages from the factory, and ran away, never to return home.
So, resourceful netizens pieced together this timeline—
At 16, she searched online for a kind-hearted sucker to improve her life.
At 18, he absconded with the money and abandoned his parents.
(This money was probably spent on cosmetic surgery!)
At 20, she pretended to be an innocent and pure girl, participated in a singing competition variety show, and became an overnight sensation.
At 24, she tricked a super-rich second-generation heir into marriage and successfully took away his 3 billion yuan fortune!
Disloyal, unjust, unkind, and unfilial—buffs stacked to the max!
What a cunning woman! What an explosive life!
Han Xiao, once a top female celebrity but now universally reviled and infamous as the number one gold digger in history, sat there quietly, giving a self-deprecating smile: "Yes, I am the Han Xiao you all know. But don't be afraid, I'm just an ordinary job seeker today."
