"Actor Xu, please put yourself in the right place. Recognize that you are an actor and I am a nobody. Don't hang out with someone like me. It lowers your status."
After Chu Zhaozhao finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the meeting room.
Maybe Chu Zhaozhao's words were a bit harsh, Xu Yu stood there thinking about it for a long time.
[System: Master, Xu Yu is still wondering why you reacted so strongly.]
[Lin Moyi has a connection with the Chu family. I have a good relationship with Lin Moyi. What does this mean? Is it because I rely on the Chu family's connections in the entertainment industry? Besides, is Lin Moyi really that good to me? How could Xu Yu think that our relationship is okay?]
[System: Master, it seems that people online do say that you two have a good relationship, but they only praise Lin Moyi.]
[See? Lin Moyi is using me for marketing. Others scold me, saying I'm influencing Lin Moyi, and praising Lin Moyi for not breaking up with her friend even though her reputation is so bad. What have I gained? Why am I born to play along with them?]
Chu Zhaozhao let it all out and just happened to go downstairs and saw Lin Moyi shining brightly at the press conference.
There were so many media outlets below, and many cameras passed by Chu Zhaozhao, but not a single one of them stopped at her.
"Teacher Lin, your company and studio have denied the recent controversy surrounding you, but I have a set of pictures. I hope you can take a look and give us an explanation."
"What picture..."
"Is there another melon to eat?"
As soon as the reporter's words came out, the scene became noisy, and the smile on Lin Moyi's face froze.
The photo on the big screen was of Lin Moyi smoking on the set. Chu Zhaozhao looked at the picture and found that it was the one she took that day.
[What's going on? Didn't I delete all the pictures? I even deleted the ones in the Recycle Bin. How could they still be there?]
Chu Zhaozhao was panicked, and Lin Moyi on the stage was also panicked.
"No way, a smoking cessation expert actually smokes on the set?"
"If I'm not mistaken, there are props behind her. She's not afraid of accidentally setting them on fire. Besides, isn't there a sign saying 'No Speak' behind her?"
Everyone's speculations came flooding in, and Lin Moyi's expression gradually lost control.
Chu Zhaozhao wanted to find Xu Yu to ask clearly, but just as she raised her foot, she heard the reporter mention her name.
"According to my reliable informant, these photos were released by an actor from your crew. She was reciting her lines behind the scenes that day and accidentally took the photos."
"No way, actor, who is it?"
"Who would leak this to the media at this time? Isn't that too cruel?"
The media who were looking around discovered Chu Zhaozhao and swarmed around her.
"Chu Zhaozhao, Chu Zhaozhao, were you also on the set that day?"
Countless microphones were suddenly thrust in front of Chu Zhaozhao, and she couldn't push them away.
Lin Moyi on the stage was still staring at Chu Zhaozhao blankly, his eyes red, and he was about to cry in the next second.
"I'm sorry, Chu Zhaozhao is not aware of this matter. Please don't speculate too much."
Xu Yu appeared and pulled Chu Zhaozhao out of the crowd.
"Mr. Xu, were you on the set that day? Can you tell us about the situation?" the reporters asked.
Lin Moyi on the stage was already crying her eyes out, but no reporter cared about her current condition.
Facing so many reporters, Xu Yu said calmly, "It's still hard to explain what happened at the scene. Reporter, I don't know if your informant is reliable, but everything depends on evidence. We will give you an explanation in the near future. That's all for today, everyone please disperse."
Security rushed up at the right time and drove the reporters out of the venue.
The reporters who were unwilling to give up were still filming outside the venue. Chu Zhaozhao could already guess what the headlines would be today.
"Are you okay?"
Xu Yu left Chu Zhaozhao and walked towards the stage, asking about Lin Moyi with concern.
Lin Moyi cried and shook his head, looking very pitiful.
"How could this happen, Brother Yu, how could this happen?" Lin Moyi choked and Xu Yu helped her off the stage.
The two people passed by Chu Zhaozhao, and Lin Moyi gave Chu Zhaozhao a cold look.
The agent told Lin Moyi that it was not convenient to discuss this matter outside the company, and called Chu Zhaozhao into the company as well.
"Chu Zhaozhao, aren't you doing this for my own good? Are you doing this for my own good?"
Lin Moyi stopped crying and spoke with tears still on his face.
The agent didn't know what had happened and could only frown and question Chu Zhaozhao.
"Teacher Chu, please tell us everything that happened that day." The agent said sternly.
"Everything you want to know is available on the on-set surveillance. Why don't you look for the surveillance footage from that day?" Chu Zhaozhao raised his eyes and asked Lin Moyi's agent.
The agent felt choked and slammed the table and said, "Okay, I'll have someone investigate immediately. If we find out that you were the one who leaked the information, how will you be held responsible, Chu Zhaozhao?"
"What if it wasn't me?" Chu Zhaozhao didn't know where he got the courage from, and met his agent's eyes.
Lin Moyi had never seen Chu Zhaozhao like this before, and for a moment he didn't know whether what the reporter said was true or false.
Is Chu Zhaozhao crazy? How dare she let them check the surveillance footage? Isn't she just trying to prove herself? The surveillance footage on the set is cleaned every three days, so how could they be found now?
"Mr. Xu, if the surveillance cameras on the set were gone, you would still be able to testify for me, right?"
Chu Zhaozhao looked at Xu Yu and said meaningfully.
Xu Yu was stunned, then nodded slightly.
"Brother Yu, you, you testified for Chu Zhaozhao?" Lin Moyi asked, feeling he couldn't believe it.
Xu Yu explained: "I was on the set that day and I checked the surveillance footage. The person who leaked the photos was not Chu Zhaozhao."
"How can you be so sure?" the agent asked.
"I saw her delete the photos." Xu Yu said it firmly, and Lin Moyi couldn't utter a word.
Chu Zhaozhao breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Yu did not lie because of her harsh words. Chu Zhaozhao thanked Xu Yu from the bottom of her heart.
"Then how do you know she didn't delete the photo and then restore it? It's hilarious that many photo albums have a recycle bin where you can restore them."
The agent seemed to be certain that it was Chu Zhaozhao who leaked the information, and she kept putting forward many hypotheses.
Xu Yu lowered his head, wondering who else was on the set that day, and who had the opportunity to access Chu Zhaozhao's phone?
"Do you have any suspects?" Xu Yu asked sincerely.
Chu Zhaozhao shook her head. Lin Moyi and her agent seemed to be ignored and could only stamp their feet in anxiety.
"Things were finally moving in a positive direction, but now we're back to square one. No, it's even worse than before. All the company's investment today has gone to waste, and I still have to figure out how to get by."
The agent was almost going crazy. He couldn't calm down and kept gasping for breath.
"Chu Zhaozhao, were you really not the one who leaked the photos?" the agent questioned Chu Zhaozhao again.
"Not me."
Chu Zhaozhao also answered her question decisively.
