"Tang Dawan, although it's easy to make mistakes impulsively when you're young, you're really outrageous. You even dare to do that to an amateur fan... Do you know that this will attract more negative attention than a scandal within the industry?"
When Tang Xiao heard Wu Lan automatically put him in the shoes of that scum of the entertainment industry, he couldn't stand it anymore.
"Sister Lan, am I the kind of person who messes around casually?" He sighed. "The child's mother isn't in the industry, nor is she an amateur fan. She's just my girlfriend. She won't have any impact on my acting career."
Even if we only date for one day, she's still my girlfriend...
Tang Xiao thought humbly.
Wu Lan was skeptical: "Are you sure your girlfriend won't suddenly show up and accuse you of being a scumbag?"
"I'd like her to show up soon so I know where she is."
Wu Lan thought for a moment and said, "So, the child's mother abandoned you and your daughter and went into hiding."
"That's about right." Tang Xiao spread his hands helplessly.
Wu Lan patted her chest and muttered, "That's easy. No one's going to dig up dirt on you, so we can make it up as we please. To protect the child from public attack, I suggest you declare that the child is your niece."
Tang Xiao curled his lips, obviously unwilling.
But thinking back to the time when Gu Zheng had to admit that Yun Nuan was his adopted daughter for her sake, and Wu Lan asking him to admit that the child was his niece, there was at least some blood relationship between them.
At least he didn't care about the misery, right?
After weighing the pros and cons, Tang Xiao compromised.
"She's my niece, so be it. But are you planning on buying these photos, Sister Lan? Honestly, I'm so fed up with these flies. I don't want to give them a penny anymore!"
He once suffered a great loss. During a company team-building event, a female artist from the same school got drunk and fell on him. The paparazzi took pictures of the incident and said they would expose him for picking up girls. In order to calm things down, Sister Lan spent a lot of money to buy the pictures.
Later, he rarely took the initiative to contact female stars because he was afraid that these reporters with nothing to do would take pictures and write articles randomly and find his weaknesses.
Who would have thought that when I took a ride in the rain today, these nasty blood-sucking bugs would immediately stick to me!
Sister Lan pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "Let's just buy it... Anything that can be solved with money isn't a big deal. If these photos get leaked, it'll be hard to explain in a few words, and the PR costs will be even higher."
Tang Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "These bastards are really getting away with it."
…
The next day, just as Tang Xiao was about to send Yun Nuan to school, the doorbell rang.
Li Qiu opened the door and saw a pretty woman standing outside in home clothes, looking a little anxious.
"I'm looking for Tang, Tang Xiao." She breathed softly, her brows furrowed.
Tang Xiao put Yun Nuan's schoolbag on his back and stuck half of his head out to look outside the door.
When he saw who was coming, he froze.
Why is Ji Qianrou here?
Yun Nuan also saw the kind sister from yesterday, and she hurriedly waved to invite her in.
Ji Qianrou waved her hand cautiously: "No, I can talk outside the door."
After she finished speaking, she shouted to Tang Xiao, "Hurry up and check your phone. The three of us were photographed in the basement yesterday."
An alarm suddenly rang in Tang Xiao's heart.
At the same time, his cell phone rang, and it was Sister Lan.
He didn't have time to chat with Ji Qianrou and quickly picked up the phone.
On the other side, Sister Lan cursed the paparazzi for being shameless. One of them took her money, but gave less to his accomplice. The accomplice was so angry that he didn't want the money and directly exposed the photos.
"I told you not to tolerate these bastards!" Tang Xiao cursed angrily, wishing he could tear them apart with his bare hands.
"You must clarify the rumors immediately! I've asked Xiao Liu to prepare a PR document, post it on Weibo immediately."
Tang Xiao glanced at the worried woman at the door and said, "It's not enough for me to clarify things alone. I'll call Ji Qianrou."
