Chapter 23
The matter was resolved, and Su Xuan felt refreshed.
After parting with Xiao Song, he and Gu Shuo headed home.
On the way, Su Xuan was very happy - he was busy until midnight and still met Gu Shuo by chance, and went home together. How could this not be wonderful?
His mood improved, and he took the initiative to chat: "The person just now is a trainee preparing to debut, his name is Xiao Song. He is not from our company, but I like him very much, so I also helped him when he had some problems. He was busy all day and just finished..."
While he was talking, Gu Shuo just sat quietly and listened to him with a smile.
Occasionally responding with a sentence or two would make Su Xuan feel very comfortable.
Gu Shuo has always been a caring listener, but as Su Xuan was speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Gu Shuo.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Gu Shuo was shrouded in a layer of fog today, making him hazy and unclear.
Su Xuan was a little confused, but when he was in front of Gu Shuo, although he was not clear-headed, at least his instinctive radar was very sharp.
So he paused, and suddenly blurted out: "Uh, well, but I only like Xiao Song as a friend!"
When these words came out, Gu Shuo was stunned for a moment, and Su Xuan also paused.
Hiss, okay, it seems like the addition was too deliberate?
Is it getting a little subtle?
Su Xuan was secretly regretting it, but Gu Shuo smiled instantly.
In fact, he had no intention of discussing this issue anymore, because no matter how many questions he had, they disappeared the moment he saw Su Xuan running towards him.
But I didn't expect Su Xuan to add this sentence on his own initiative.
The indescribable irritability that I had felt throughout the whole day disappeared completely in an instant.
Gu Shuo smiled, and Su Xuan blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.
Gu Shuo's eyes turned slightly, and he asked with a smile: "What about me?"
A car was coming from behind, and Gu Shuo naturally pulled Su Xuan inside and put his hand on Su Xuan's waist.
After the car passed by, he simply switched places with Su Xuan and walked on the outside.
When Su Xuan heard Gu Shuo's question, his heart started beating wildly.
He lowered his head and stammered, "W-what?"
He looked around, trying to get away with it: "Uh, of course you are my friend too..."
Gu Shuo calmly took over his words: "Do you like me too?"
Su Xuan: “!”
He was thankful that it was night time and the lighting on the road they were walking on was not that bright, otherwise his face would have turned so red, which would have been bad.
Without hearing his answer, Gu Shuo deliberately smiled and called out, "Ah Xuan?"
"!" Su Xuan gave up on himself, "I like you! Of course I like you!"
He suddenly felt that Gu Shuo also had a bad side! He had to force him to say such embarrassing things! Too much!
Gu Shuo immediately laughed out loud, as if he was very clear about what bad thing he was doing.
Su Xuan raised his head angrily and glared at him, but his eyes were still sparkling no matter how you looked at them.
So cute.
Gu Shuo frowned and rubbed Su Xuan's head. He wanted to ask in a very "unkind" way, did he like him as a friend?
However, after opening his mouth, something came to his mind, causing him to stop suddenly.
Su Xuan felt that Gu Shuo still wanted to tease him, and waited vigilantly for a few seconds, but Gu Shuo didn't say anything. Even his thoughts seemed to be wandering, and he couldn't help but change from "anger" to confusion.
Gu Shuo came back to his senses and turned his gaze back to Su Xuan.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he just smiled, rubbed Su Xuan's head, and said softly: "Nothing, I just want to say that I like you very much, too, Ah Xuan."
He looked at Su Xuan and said this in a low voice.
With a "thump".
Su Xuan paused, his ears really felt hot.
He swallowed very unpromisingly.
Gu Shuo is good-looking, has a nice voice, and a gentle tone.
Although he knew that the liking that Gu Shuo was talking about probably referred to the kind of liking that one feels as a friend, Su Xuan's heart still swelled when he heard it with his own ears.
It’s too great, too great.
He couldn't help but secretly wonder, if someone like Gu Shuo said "I love you" seriously and affectionately one day, how destructive would that be?
He can definitely kill thousands of soldiers and horses, and the first one to be killed will undoubtedly be Su Xuan!
Looking at Su Xuan's constantly changing expression, Gu Shuo couldn't help laughing, but he also lowered his eyes slightly.
Many things may only be said after all questions are answered.

On the other hand, the situation on the Internet began to stir.
The person who filmed the farce in the hotel corridor posted the video online and angrily wrote: "I was traveling with friends and staying in a hotel. Today, this happened in the room next door. It's definitely not a script, it's a real video. This kind of father is too terrible!"
The video was not censored. It started from the moment Xiao Song said, "Dad, this is the woman you found outside." It captured the entire process of the "man" behaving crazily in the corridor, laughing wildly and saying he wanted to kill his wife and children in front of everyone.
This blogger doesn’t have many fans, most of whom are his friends in real life, but coincidentally, he has a friend who is a minor internet celebrity.
This young internet celebrity friend commented: "??? The confession of a murderer?"
And as soon as he retweeted it, this crazy video shocked all his fans.
“????”
"Oh my God, who is this?"
"So the one lying on the floor in the video is the mistress? This is a hotel room, and the two of them went out to have sex and got caught by their son???"
"Is it true that he said he was going to kill his wife and son? That expression is so scary, he really looks like a murderer..."
“That’s terrifying…”
"Fuck him! His wife is undergoing cancer treatment, but he threatened that if he killed her, everyone would think she committed suicide because she couldn't bear the pressure of fighting cancer??? What kind of devil is this! He is not a human being!"
"Is this human language?"
"Is he mentally ill? How dare he say such things in front of so many people? I think he beat up that mistress pretty badly..."
"Is this really not a script... His son and his friends are so handsome... Ah this..."
Marketing accounts took action upon hearing the news and forwarded the video as soon as it became popular. With the push from multiple parties, the video went viral in just a few hours.
Most netizens were shocked by the man’s crazy words and actions and began to criticize him, but a small number of netizens still doubted the authenticity of the video.
Where there is doubt, there will be exposure.
Then they quickly found...
—Nimma, isn’t that handsome guy standing next to his son in the video Su Xuan, the young boss of Shanlegehai Idol Entertainment Co., Ltd.!
Boss, why are you suddenly here if you’re not selling barbecue?
Some netizens criticized it, while others were more sensitive and immediately began to have different reactions.
"? I have a bad feeling..."
"Entertainment company boss? Emmmm, am I overthinking it?"
"The 'son' is so handsome, could he be one of his family's artists? This is a fake video, staged???"
"Is it a script?"
"No way, you can't just shoot any video just to become famous. I was super angry just now..."
"It's definitely fake! Is Shanle Gehai going full-on internet celebrity? The boss and the artist are working together to film fake videos to attract attention?!"
"I originally had a good impression of this company, but this..."
"The mountain made a fake video to deceive netizens, collective biss [cute][cute]"
Some people with ulterior motives saw that the major ethical case had not yet fully fermented, but it was suddenly about to turn into a major car crash scene. They wanted to join in the fun and immediately started digging out photos of the Shanhai BBQ stall that netizens had posted, to compare whether any of the photos contained the "son" in the video - as long as they found the photos, it would prove that these two people made fake videos to cheat traffic!
The boss and the artist are out together, if this isn’t a script, then what is?
However, strangely, they excitedly searched for a long time and almost looked through all the photos of Shanhai BBQ stalls on the Internet, but they could not find any trace of their "son".
It’s so strange, this shouldn’t be the case. Or is it that this “son” is an artist that Shanlegehai has just signed, and they haven’t had time to let him appear at the barbecue stall?
While I was confused, a great man finally stepped in and slapped the face of the netizen who started taking out loans and cursing without even figuring out some of the facts.
"Well, I found out. The son next to Boss Su Xuan is indeed an artist... But Saorui, I'm sorry to disappoint you. He's not an artist from Shanlegehai, but [dog head] from Universe Media."
Some netizens excitedly started typing on their keyboards after seeing the first half of the sentence, but were stunned after seeing the second half.
...Cosmic Media? ?
What the hell?
The blogger released a photo.
From the Weibo of Lin Yu, the boss of Universe Media.
The photo was a group photo of him and his newly signed artists. In the photo, Lin Yu was at the front, giving a coquettish "yeah" sign. And among the new artists behind him, the one standing in the center, looking the best and with the sweetest smile... was none other than the son in the video!!
At the end of the Weibo post, the blogger tagged a Weibo account named "Song Song V". When you click on it, you can see that the Weibo profile clearly says "Universe Media Trainee Xiao Song". The person in the avatar looks exactly like the "son" in the video!
All the netizens were stunned after eating the melon to this point.
W-what? His son isn't an artist from Shanlegehai, but from Universe Media?
Hey, wait, hiss, are Universe Media and Shanlegehai the same company?
Or is it that Universe Media is a subsidiary of Shanlegehai?
——It’s no wonder that netizens would think this subconsciously. After all, judging from the current popularity on the Internet, Universe Media is even more obscure than the mountains and seas!
But that’s not right. Netizens checked the company information and found that Universe Media has nothing to do with Shanlegehai!
How could an artist from Universe Media and a small-time boss from Shanlegehai be together?!
"I'm confused. What's going on? Is this video real or fake?"
"I'm confused, is there any expert who can help me sort this out?"
"If this artist isn't Shanlegehai's, then there's no need for Shanlegehai to market him. So this video is real, and it's just a coincidence that his son is an artist and his friend is the owner of another entertainment company???"
“I just want to know if what’s in the video is true!!”
…
When netizens were looking for answers like headless flies, finally a second person who was watching the scene in the hotel corridor spoke up.
This person is in the circle of popular science of classical culture and has a very high status in the circle. He only posts popular science articles on a daily basis and rarely chats. He is a very low-key and powerful person.
She wrote on Weibo:
"I recently went on a business trip to City A and happened to stay at this hotel. I was at the scene when the incident happened, but I didn't take any video because I felt it was inappropriate.
Everything in the video really happened. After the four people returned to the room, there was no other movement. An hour later, I went out to eat and happened to see several people in uniform taking them away. I don’t know if they were police officers.
From my personal perspective, I don't think what happened was staged, and the man's mental health issues are real. Also, I don't think it's good to have the uncensored video spread like this..."
After she said this, many netizens who were so engrossed in watching the show felt embarrassed.
"Yeah, if this is a real thing, it's not very nice to just film it and post it online without censoring it..."
As soon as this Weibo post was released, the blogger who originally uploaded the video online and seemed to be indignantly asking all netizens to stand up for the poor son in the video immediately secretly deleted the video.
But the video itself has already spread on the Internet, how could it disappear?
Then some netizens scolded him for taking advantage of others' misfortune and deliberately releasing the video without censoring it just to gain popularity. How shameless!
However, the video has been spread and the topic has been established. How can the heat be cooled down if the problem is not solved?
Netizens are still struggling.
"I still believe in the character of that sister in the science popularization circle. If she says it's true, then it must be true. A man who kills his wife will not die a good death!"
"But whether it's true or not, there's still no solid evidence, right?"
"What that science blogger said doesn't prove the video is real!"
At this chaotic moment, a netizen suddenly appeared and completely reversed the course of events, pushing the topic to another level!
This netizen is an employee of a large home furnishing company.
He posted on Weibo: "...that...the man in the video...seems to be our company's boss. I do think I heard the boss's wife recently got breast cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy... [horrified] I won't be fired, will I? [covering my face]"
As soon as his Weibo post came out, netizens were shocked - and then goosebumps started to appear.
"What the hell?"
“Is this true…?”
"Oh my god..."
Someone immediately came to his senses and followed his clues to investigate, searching the entire Internet. After finding the answer, he became speechless.
This person spent an hour organizing all the clues for netizens.
"The crazy man in the video is called Tang Yang, his Weibo is @玉產之家ceo唐杨; his wife is Song Yalan, I won't tag her anymore, she is the owner of Tianlan Real Estate, Tianlan Real Estate is probably a family business of the Song family.
I checked and found that the former boss of Yuchan Home Furnishing was also surnamed Song, so it is reasonable to speculate that Yuchan Home Furnishing was originally a Song family enterprise. Because Tang Yang and Song Yalan got married, the business was later handed over to Tang Yang, and Tang Yang probably married into the family, so their son, the handsome artist in the video, took his mother's surname, also Song (the name can be found on the official website of Universe Media).
It is likely true that Song Yalan herself has recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently undergoing treatment [Picture]. As shown in the picture, a Tianlan Real Estate employee mentioned on Weibo that the boss is ill.
So the relationship between the three of them is real, the marriage between Tang and Song is real, and Tang Yang's fear of divorce and his desire to kill his wife are obvious: money. So far, I don't think this video is scripted. If it were, they'd be playing it too big, not even caring about the company's stock price.
As soon as this Weibo post was released, the entire Internet was shocked.
What was even more unexpected was that at three o'clock in the morning, as the incident quickly became popular, the public relations department of Yuchan Home Furnishing did not sleep at all. They got up in the middle of the night and issued an announcement stating that CEO Tang Yang had resigned for personal reasons. After the company understood the situation, it had accepted Tang Yang's resignation application.
Lin Yu couldn't help himself and posted a Weibo post saying, "This isn't a script, this isn't a script, this isn't a script! This isn't hype, this isn't hype, this isn't hype! Xiao Song did have some family issues recently, and he even asked me for a few days off because of this! I didn't realize it was so serious until I saw the video just now... I want to say, there's no way I'd risk an artist's future by having him film a fake video with another company boss just for publicity. Am I crazy? If I had seen the video earlier, I would have paid to have it wiped from the internet!"
Two Weibo posts came out one after another, directly sending this matter to the hot search!
Then netizens exploded.
"So it's all true?!"
"Fuck Tang Yang, he's so disgusting! He married into the woman's family and took over her property, but not only is he ungrateful, he even refused to divorce her after cheating on her and threatened to kill her!"
"I vomited, I really vomited!"
"This man is a venomous snake!!"
"Xiao Song and his mother are so pitiful, meeting such a person..."
"You've already resigned? Does that mean the matter is resolved? You can still get a divorce, right?"
"Everyone, be careful! This kind of man might find another rich woman after the divorce. Be careful, he might kill your whole family for your wealth!"
"Is Song Yalan okay? QAQ I hope Auntie can receive treatment safely, and Xiao Song also needs to be well QAQ"
…
When Su Xuan saw the trending search, the entire network was almost unanimous in sympathizing with Xiao Song and Song Yalan, and cursing Tang Yang.
He sent a WeChat message to Xiao Song: "Is everything okay over there?"
Xiao Song quickly replied, "Yeah, it's okay. Mom has returned to her body and woken up once. The doctor said if there are no problems, she will be discharged soon and will continue with the treatment plan."
Su Xuan: "That's good."
All the developments on the Internet - whether it was the spread of the uncensored video or the reactions of netizens - should have been within Xiao Song's expectations.
——In the evening, he must have seen that someone was filming a video, so he hinted to Song Yalan to take the opportunity to tell the truth.
Tang Yang said these words himself, and it was Tang Yang himself who pushed Song Yalan into a desperate situation, so they just spread what Tang Yang did and said through the hands of busybodies.
If you dare to say it, don’t you dare to bear the consequences?
Since Tang Yang dared to threaten Xiao Song, he must have the same means to make him a rat crossing the street for the rest of his life.
Su Xuan also felt that everything that happened now was what Tang Yang deserved, so he did not say a word from beginning to end, allowing the things on the Internet to ferment wildly.
Of course...
He browsed Weibo for a while and laughed when he came across Lin Yu's post.
Su Xuan actually didn't realize that he was being filmed in the video, so he forgot to avoid the camera.
But when he appeared in the video, Lin Yu’s Weibo was flooded with comments.
In Lin Yu's comment section, many people were asking for the truth, asking about Xiao Song's current situation, insulting Tang Yang, and some...
"So why would your artist go with the boss of another entertainment company?"
"Emmmm, another kind of cheating scene? [dog head]"
"Xiao Song doesn't seem to be following you yet, Mr. Lin [dog head]"
Lin Yu replied: "...you guys are also very free [goodbye][goodbye][goodbye]"
Su Xuan happily turned over in bed and happened to see the Weibo notification, discovering that Xiao Song was following him!
And under Lin Yu’s Weibo, fans reacted very quickly, and ran to tell Lin Yu cunningly—
"Boss Lin, Boss Lin, Xiao Song is following Boss Su!"
"Boss Lin, Boss Lin, why is your Xiao Song following Boss Su before he follows you?"
"Boss Lin, Boss Lin, will you receive a penalty for breach of contract in a few days?"
…
On the other side of the city, Lin Yu... Lin Yu went crazy.
He tapped furiously on his phone: "No! No penalty! No termination! Xiao Song is our rising star!"
As soon as he posted it, the group of hateful fans in the comment section laughed like crazy, and they all said "Okay, okay, Xiao Song loves you the most" and "No grievance, no grievance". However, the gloating tone made Lin Yu angry and embarrassed!
Lin Yu was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he still wanted to fight again. Just as he was organizing an 800-word essay to angrily criticize his fans, a notification popped up on Weibo to increase his followers. He took a closer look...
Song Song v.
Lin Yu was immediately ecstatic—it was Xiao Song! Xiao Song was following him! Hahahaha!!
At the same time, he also received a WeChat message from Xiao Song, which was very long. It was the first time that Lin Yu received a message with so many words from Xiao Song.
He was so moved that he almost cried, and then he looked at the content carefully...
"Hi Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. I was feeling very upset because of family matters, and seeing your message made me even more upset, so I didn't reply. Now that the matter has been resolved, thank you for posting on Weibo for me. I have reflected on it and will treat you better in the future."
Xiao Song: “[Cat pats head]”
Lin Yu: “…………”
Wuuuuuu! Xiao Song actually found him annoying! He was disliked by Xiao Song, wuuuuuuu!
But people are in trouble and they can't be separated. After Mr. Lin finished crying, he started crying again while holding his mobile phone. Wuuuuuu! Xiao Song actually replied to his emoticon package. Xiao Song is so good, wuuuuuu!
Lin Yu was like a salted fish turning over. After crying, he posted on Weibo: "Stop laughing, Xiao Song is following me and even sent me a WeChat message! Our Xiao Song is the most well-behaved Xiao Song and will never go against the rules!"
The fans were completely laughing.
On the other side, in the hospital, Xiao Song laughed when he saw Lin Yu’s reply in the comment section.
Well, although Mr. Lin is annoying most of the time, he can also be cute and considerate at times. We should still treat him well in the future.
Xiao Song thought so with a smile.
