Chapter 33: Actor Xu Caught in Public Opinion



"Okay, Third Brother, don't worry about it. Actor Xu will have something to do later, right? Since we want to keep him for dinner, why not eat early?" Chu Zhaozhao suggested.

While Chu Huaiyang was still thinking about the conversation just now, Chu Zhaozhao quickly ordered the takeout.

"It's not good to always eat takeout. Can I make you something to eat?" Xu Yu stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen.

"No, no, no, how can we let the movie star cook for us." Chu Zhaozhao immediately grabbed Xu Yu.

Xu Yu was also polite and determined to go into the kitchen to take a look.

I can only say that you don’t know until you see it, and you will be shocked when you see it.

The kitchen in Chu Zhaozhao's house is cleaner than her floor.

"There's nothing for cooking at home, so this kitchen is just a decoration." Chu Zhaozhao said with an awkward smile.

Xu Yu finally understood why Chu Zhaozhao stopped him. He smiled and said nothing.

"Zhao Zhao, I must have heard what you said about falling in love just now!" Chu Huaiyang shouted in the living room.

"Okay, okay, you heard me." Chu Zhaozhao perfunctorily replied to Chu Huaiyang.

Chu Huaiyang stepped forward and said, "You actually eavesdropped on your third brother's conversation!"

Facing the gazes of the two men, Chu Zhaozhao could only find an excuse and say, "Third brother, I didn't eavesdrop. It's just that my house is not soundproof and I happened to hear it."

"Besides, how can you accuse me of eavesdropping?"

These two siblings are indeed very similar, and even their justifiable excuses are made up on the spot.

The two of them chatted with each other, and Xu Yu silently retreated to the living room.

Xu Yu listened to the conversation between the two people with great interest, without stopping his hands, and kept eating grapes as if he was watching a play.

"Third brother, let's stop and let this matter go."

When Chu Zhaozhao turned around and saw Xu Yu's appearance, she realized something was wrong and took the initiative to end the conversation with Chu Huaiyang.

Chu Huaiyang thought he had won and proudly went to grab the grapes on the table.

[I'm saying this: when it comes to critical thinking, no one is better than me, Chu Huaiyang. It's just my brain, there's nothing I can do about it, it's innate.]

Chu Zhaozhao found Chu Huaiyang funny and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"The takeaway is here." Xu Yu said as he rushed to get the takeaway.

The takeaway was opened and placed on the table. The three of them didn't even have time to wash their hands before picking up their chopsticks and eating.

"By the way, Xu Yu, can you really cook?" Chu Zhaozhao said with food still stuffed in her mouth.

Xu Yu nodded and said, "I'm good at Western food, but I haven't made it for a long time, so I'm probably a lot less accustomed to it."

"Xu Yu, tell me about yourself. If you hadn't entered the entertainment industry, your relationship with me would be pretty good now. It's a pity for you." Chu Huaiyang patted Xu Yu's shoulder and said earnestly.

"Goodbye, I'm fine now." Xu Yu said with a smile.

The three of them were chatting and laughing while eating when Xu Yu's agent called.

"Xu Yu, where were you last night?"

"In the hotel." Xu Yu said frankly.

When Chu Zhaozhao heard Xu Yu talking about the hotel, he had a bad feeling.

When I picked up my phone, I saw that a paparazzi had taken photos of Xu Yu being escorted into the room by hotel staff.

"Why were you drunk? Who sent you to the hotel? Why didn't anyone inform me about this?" Xu Yu's agent screamed.

Xu Yu put down his chopsticks and replied, "I didn't expect that I would get drunk. Chu Zhaozhao and Sister Wei took me to the hotel. They should not have been photographed."

"The person who is promoting a couple with you is Lin Moyi. You can't immediately promote a couple with someone else just because Lin Moyi has a bad reputation now. Our personality is not this one." The agent said angrily.

Xu Yu explained: "You misunderstood, Chu Zhaozhao and I are just friends."

"What friend? You didn't get drunk after drinking with Chu Zhaozhao, did you? If that's you, you'd better pray that those powerful paparazzi didn't take these photos." The agent seemed angry and spoke in a tough tone.

"I was drinking with Chu Zhaozhao..."

The agent screamed again, "Do you know who you are? You're a movie star. Chu Zhaozhao is just a small artist. Getting close to you is like riding on a career express train."

"We don't need to take any express train. We have the ability to be a movie queen. Even without Xu Yu, we can still become famous on our own, right Zhaozhao?" Chu Huaiyang was anxious to defend Chu Zhaozhao.

Chu Zhaozhao instantly became nervous. It was said that Xu Yu's agent was notoriously difficult to deal with.

"Where are you now, Xu Yu, who was the person who just spoke?" the agent asked vigilantly.

"I'm at Chu Zhaozhao's house." Xu Yu looked at Chu Zhaozhao and said word by word.

The agent yelled into the phone: "Xu Yu, do you know what's going on? You're still in the mood to stay at home now. Are you thinking the matter isn't big enough and want to make it bigger? Go back to the studio before anyone notices you and don't run around during this time."

"Looks like I have to go." Xu Yu yelled after hanging up the phone.

After listening to what Xu Yu's agent said, Chu Zhaozhao said apologetically, "If I hadn't ordered the wine that day, perhaps none of this would have happened."

"No, it was me who said I wanted to drink that day. It has nothing to do with you." Xu Yu smiled at Chu Zhaozhao.

Chu Huaiyang said approvingly, "You're quite capable, kid. At least you don't shirk responsibility. I've really taken a new look at you."

"Third brother..." Chu Zhaozhao said helplessly.

"I'm leaving. If it's any later, I might not be able to leave." After saying that, Xu Yu changed his shoes and left.

Xu Yu's car was ready. If nothing unexpected happened, he could get in the car and leave as soon as he left the community.

Chu Zhaozhao was observing Xu Yu's car from upstairs, and only relaxed after seeing the car leave the community smoothly.

"Sister, it's not easy for you public figures."

Chu Huaiyang and Chu Zhaozhao lay on the sofa together, but the difference was that Chu Zhaozhao felt physically and mentally exhausted.

"There are too many things requiring public relations recently. They all seem to come in a cluster. As soon as the previous one is dealt with, the next one comes. Don't these paparazzi need a rest?" Chu Zhaozhao said with distress, covering his face.

"Zhao Zhao, it seems that the fact that you drank with Xu Yu can no longer be hidden." Chu Huaiyang said cautiously.

Having guessed that things would develop in this way, Chu Zhaozhao silently accepted this fact in his heart.

"I'll take care of this. Thank you and Sister Wei for what you did before, and for the meal today."

Chu Zhaozhao stared at the text message sent by Xu Yu in a daze, thinking about the meaning of Xu Yu's text message for a long time.

"Is Xu Yu usually so warm-hearted?" Chu Zhaozhao asked Chu Huaiyang.

Chu Huaiyang stopped talking and asked mysteriously, "Could it be that Xu Yu likes you?"

"Third brother, you can't say that. Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall." Chu Zhaozhao immediately covered Chu Huaiyang's mouth.

Chu Huaiyang struggled to get away and said in a low voice: "I don't know what kind of person Xu Yu is. We haven't been in contact for so long, but..."

"That's enough, Third Brother. I don't want to celebrate anymore."

Chu Zhaozhao was afraid that Chu Huaiyang would say something shocking again, so she immediately stopped him from speaking.

Chu Huaiyang nodded in acceptance, knowing that Chu Zhaozhao was unwilling to listen.
