At this point, the fans were gradually divided into two factions. One faction believed that it was ‘sheer fabrication out of nothing, the two are just friends of the opposite gender’; while the other faction were rejoicing, thinking that their fairy maiden found a peerless male deity, who was handsome, had a good career, and was loving. He was a match made in heaven with their fairy maiden.
Among the fans of the latter faction, there were even people who passionately wrote short compositions. They wrote, ‘The two people met because of a cover shoot, and cultivated feelings because of a natural disaster. The man is able, and the woman is beautiful; they’re intimate lovers with the wife singing her husband’s tune; a beautiful love that moves one to song and tears’.
If this matter had stopped there, it would have been at best a niche discussion within the fan circle. 80% of the public’s attitude was very positive and peaceful. They praised Su Jin’s self-sacrifice on the one hand, and appreciated Mu Xiulun’s family background on the other, and they didn’t care much about a young actress in the entertainment industry falling in love with a rich man.
However, 24 hours later, a screenshot posted on a disclosure website flipped things 360 degrees..
That screenshot was from the National Real Estate Intranet. Only those in the Housing Management Bureau could log into this site. The information on it was authentic and reliable, with zero possibility of forgery!
It was a house transfer information. It clearly stated that a man named Mu Xiulun transferred a top floor property mansion in a certain high-end community to Su Jin!
In the background of the Housing Management Bureau, not only could you see the change of ownership information of the house, but also could clearly see the ID photos of the two homeowners, setting the same names and surnames to rights.
—— Wait, is this how rich people fall in love these days? They have no relationship, but they gift a house?
—— Kekeke, the house is worth eight figures. The rich and powerful are not spendthrift and foolish. This is not a wedding gift nor is it a divorce division of property. Who would just transfer a suite during a relationship?
—— I think this is not a relationship. This is clearly keeping a mistress…
—— Fans, open your eyes and look at the time. Your Su Jin accepted someone’s house in the middle of the year, yet now you’re starting to speculate on their relationship scandal?
—— It turns out that beautiful love is nonexistent in this world. It’s just the rich playing with beautiful ladies.
Under the instigation of people with motives, Su Jin’s popularity fell from a high altitude to the abyss in just two days.
……
This was the biggest crisis that Su Jishi had ever encountered since she became ‘Su Jin’.
How could she have expected that she would be involved in so many things after she had done a good deed?
The transfer information that was revealed by insiders of the Housing Management Bureau was indeed true. At that time, she and Mu Xiulun just ended their mistress relationship. In adherence to a good relationship and amicable break-up, Mu Xiulun transferred the ownership of the house where Su Jishi’s sister lived to her.
It was reasonable to say that this kind of private citizen information was top secret information. Except for the public security bureaus, no one could access it at will.
But in many cases, the personal information of celebrities was no longer private, but had turned into a tool that many people rely on for financial gain.
From small flight disclosures to large household addresses, this information could be bought as long as there was money and access. Not long ago, a personnel in the Marriage Registry Office disclosed the news about the divorce of a well-known actor in the entertainment industry in advance; there was also an actress, who called the police and reported her boyfriend for domestic violence. As a result, the police officer, who was dispatched to the scene, directly stabbed a reporter…
Su Jishi never thought that she would actually be caught in this kind of ‘handle’.
Fang Xie immediately asked their public relations to come forward, and then hired a water army((a group of paid online ghostwriters)) to control the comment section. However, there were far more people on the other side than on their side.
At this point, anyone could tell that this was definitely not the spontaneous behavior of ordinary netizens, but someone deliberately trying to mess with Su Jin.
Su Jin was now sitting on the throne of ‘the most popular traffic celebrity’. Behind her, there were countless people eyeing her position, waiting to replace her. Even if she never intentionally made enemies, she couldn’t stop others from trying to take advantage of the situation, hitting her when she was already down.
Fang Xie’s phone was almost battered by the media. It was only yesterday when reporters were asking ‘Su Jin’s mental journey when saving someone bravely’, but today it was changed to ‘What is the relationship between Su Jin and President Mu? Why did President Mu transfer a ten-million worth real estate to her?’
Fang Xie harrumphed: “What kind of relationship can there be? It’s just a second-hand landlord and a home buyer!”
Entertainment reporters: “…”
Fang Xie’s expression suddenly changed, and he said seriously, “We will pursue the legal responsibility of the staff who leaked the privacy of our artist. A lawyer’s letter has been issued, and our company, on behalf of Miss Su Jin, severely criticizes such behavior that defies the law and personal privacy!”
He righteously hung up the phone and fell silent for half a minute on the phone. In a blink, his expression turned to bitterness once more.
Fang Xie moved closer to Su Jishi and blinked and winked, restraining the words which sprang to his lips.
Su Jishi: “…Just say whatever you want to say.”
Fang Xie sighed: “Sister Su, in fact, when your sister and President Mu were together before, many paparazzis stalked them and photographed real proof, but they were all bought by President Mu at that time…However, there is no guarantee that someone hasn’t secretly kept a copy of a black-and-white photo. After all, this circle is not about professional ethics. We can still play Tai Chi to prevaricate at the moment, but I have this hunch that things aren’t over yet. There must be a bigger wave coming. I’m afraid by then…”
“Then what do you mean?” Su Jishi heard the insinuation in his remarks.
“I mean…how about…how about you discuss it with President Mu?” He lowered his voice, but couldn’t suppress the three points of curiosity in it. “Sister Su, we have been working together for half a year, so tell me the truth, what exactly is the situation between you and President Mu? You two went horse riding, and you often exchange messages on WeChat. Don’t tell me you’re really…”
“We are not in a relationship,” Su Jishi immediately interrupted him, a different streak flashing in her pretty eyes. “With the relationship between Su Jinqing and him, how could I possibly be in a relationship with him?”
“…” Fang Xie pondered, and had this feeling that her answer was quite odd. The contract between Su Jinqing and Mu Xiulun was just for show, and they hadn’t been really a couple. Even if Su Jishi really had something with Mu Xiulun, it wasn’t ‘robbing someone of their love’ ah. But Su Jishi’s attitude was too firm. Fang Xie was already used to being carried by her everywhere, so he could only suppress his inner confusion for the time being.
Fang Xie advised bitterly, “But we really have to be prepared. If one day, his and Su Jin’s past is exposed, the company can never stand by and watch Su Jin be labeled as a ‘mistress’. At that point, whether you like it or not, the company will issue a statement on your behalf that you are in a relationship with him.
“…I disagree.” Su Jishi was usually very cooperative with the company, but when it came to this matter, she unexpectedly showed a strong resistance. “We aren’t in a romantic relationship at all. Do you think claiming something false a hundred times will make it true?”
“It’s just a fake relationship! And not letting you get married! Besides, if you can divorce in marriage, you can break up in a relationship as well. When public opinion has calmed down, you can break up peacefully in a few months, and then you will fade out of the entertainment industry…” Fang Xie dryly coughed. “Of course, you need to get through to President Mu in advance to see if he is willing.” However, Fang Xie felt that President Mu would definitely be willing.
