Chapter 54: Brave, Speak Boldly
After Jin Zhe cheated on her on the live show, she has been denying that she and Gu Tianhou were in a relationship before, which made the guests feel ashamed.
At this moment, when Jiang Ning heard her say that Jin Zhe and Gu Tianhou's relationship was initiated by him begging for it, her eyes were full of sarcasm.
Jiang Qing is not in the entertainment industry, but in the capital industry. She doesn't care whether what she says will cause controversy, and she speaks very casually.
"Everyone knows that the Jiang family started out as a hotel business, right? The Jiang family's hotels are spread all over the country, and with so many guests coming and going, they've seen a lot of strange things."
When he said this, Jiang Qing glanced at Jin Zhe. Just as Jin Zhe had a bad feeling in his heart, he heard Jiang Qing say.
"I heard before that there was an 18th-tier celebrity who, in order to become famous, found out about a famous singer's preferences, played a cosplay to please the singer, and ended up getting herself into a hotel room. I heard they later became a couple."
The two characters in this speech "coincidentally" confronted Jin Zhe and Gu Tianhou, and this happened after Jin Zhe finished speaking, which was obviously intended to make the audience think too much.
After all, it is no secret that Queen Gu has an S-type preference in the entertainment industry. Gossip reporters have even revealed it, and many netizens also know about it.
Now, when he heard what Jiang Qing said, he consciously matched Jin Zhe with that 18th-tier celebrity, and Queen Gu with the famous singer.
[Jin Zhe is making such a big deal out of this. I thought he wasn't any more handsome than any of Gu Tianhou's previous boyfriends, so how did he manage to get to the top? Turns out it was all thanks to his cosplay skills.]
[This is how she became associated with Empress Gu. No wonder she always seems so unpresentable. She's been sneaking around for so long that she's probably too scared to even show her true identity and stand next to Empress Gu.]
[It's my inferiority complex. I had a boyfriend who came from a difficult family. When I took him to meet family and friends, he was cold the whole time. He even said that my family and friends looked down on him. I was speechless. If they looked down on him, would they give him a car and a house? It's not like their money came from the wind.]
[Has this weird, self-deprecating guy upstairs broken up? If not, here I am with a forklift.]
[Of course we broke up. I took back everything I got from my family. I wanted him to feel what it means to be truly looked down upon.]
Jin Zhe couldn't see the barrage at the moment, but he faced the guests' scrutiny, and Qin Ying also withdrew her hand from his arm with disgust. The couple's relationship, which lasted less than a day, broke down in an instant, and Jin Zhe felt cold all over.
He never admitted to being in a relationship with Gu Tianhou. On the one hand, he wanted to hype himself up with Qin Ying to whitewash his infidelity. On the other hand, Jin Zhe didn't want netizens to dig up how he became Gu Tianhou's boyfriend.
That incident was definitely a past event that he was unwilling to face. He couldn't imagine how he would be ridiculed by the entire Internet after it was exposed.
No one would like to admit that a man crawls at a woman's feet like a dog and tries to please her to get resources.
Jin Zhe thought that since Queen Gu would never reveal her private matters, no one would know what happened that night.
But now it's over, all over...
Jin Zhe clenched his fists and stared at Qin Ying and Jiang Ning, his expression looking as if he was about to commit murder at any moment.
"You, the daughters of rich families who were born with silver spoons in their mouths and entered the circle with your own resources, do you know how difficult it is to climb up from the bottom? Are you willing to destroy me?"
His eyes were red and sparkling with tears, showing a beautiful, strong and tragic look. Even though Jin Zhe was ridiculed by the audience a second ago, he couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable when he saw him like this.
Jin Zhe seems to have a difficult time. In the entertainment industry, it's not easy to succeed without a strong backing. He's not like Jiang Ning, who signed with a top entertainment company right after debuting and had great resources to support her debut. Jin Zhe wants to be famous, but he's not willing to sell himself out.
That being said, netizens nowadays have seen too much gossip and have seen all kinds of celebrities’ whitewashing press releases and marketing tricks, so they can’t be fooled easily. Someone immediately refuted it.
[Even if Jin Zhe doesn't want to go, the company can still tie him up and take him to Gu Tianhou's room, forcing him to do stupid cross-dressing things.]
[Speaking of which, after Jin Zhe and Gu Tianhou got together, he had access to a lot of resources. If he can't become famous just because he doesn't have the ability, then just pretend that he never had the resources and didn't use any backdoors, okay?]
[He was almost pointing fingers at Jiang Ning and Jiang Qing and saying they were the ones with the most resources, but Jiang Ning didn't say anything about him. What on earth was Jin Zhe crazy about?]
[He's jealous of Jiang Ning's background and resources. He relies on cosplay to get ahead, but he doesn't think about how many people's resources he squeezed out by relying on Gu Yinghou. Jiang Ning is at least an honest resourceful person, and he didn't steal other people's opportunities.]
Jin Zhe didn't know that the direction of the live broadcast room was not what he expected. His eyes were red as he glared at Jiang Ning and Jiang Qing, hoping that the two would fight or do something else, so that he would have more reason to play the victim.
After Jin Zhe's fear and anger subsided, he quickly made plans for himself and guided public opinion towards them.
Jiang Ning's eyes, which were pure without any impurities, looked fixedly at Jin Zhe.
"So have you ever been to Queen Gu's room and played the role of Cat?"
“…”
The topic that was almost avoided was brought up again, and the angry expression on Jin Zhe's face showed signs of cracking.
Jiang Qing and the other guests couldn't help but burst out laughing when they saw Jin Zhe's expression of disbelief, while Jiang Ning was still curious and waiting for an answer.
"Jiang Ning, that's a good question. We also want to know if it's fun to cosplay as a cat and what it's like."
The feeling of humiliation came again. Jin Zhe pinched his palm with his fingers, and the pain prevented him from losing his mind.
"Whether you believe it or not, I have never been to the hotel and done anything like that. I hope Miss Jiang and Teacher Jiang will stop spreading rumors."
Even the audience could tell that he was forcing an explanation.
[This explanation is so lame, anyone can see that. I say Jin Zhe should stop struggling and just lie down and let everyone laugh at him.]
[I also feel that the Jinzhe Hotel incident is irredeemable. I might as well cosplay again and beg Queen Gu to see if I can win her back.]
[I'm the only one curious if all the celebrities in the celebrity circle have heard about the Jinzhe Hotel scandal. How did Jiang Ning know that Jinzhe was cosplaying as a cat?]
[Someone above said Jiang Ning and Jin Zhe were in the same circle, so they must have heard about this.]
The director looked at Jin Zhe who was about to explode, and was worried that people would make a fuss, so he quickly came out and asked him to spin the bottle to choose the next victim, no, the guest.
It was not known whether it was a coincidence or intentional, but the mouth of the beer bottle stopped right in front of Jiang Ning.
"Teacher Jiang, do you want to play truth or dare?" Jin Zhe's eyes were like a poisonous snake, staring at Jiang Ning as if filled with venom, and no one knew what he was planning.
Jiang Ning blinked and took a sip of Wangzai milk to calm herself down.
"I choose dare."
The calculation in Jin Zhe's eyes froze.
The plan to expose Jiang Ning's financial backer came to nothing.
