Chapter 281: Too Outstanding!
The incident involving Zi You meant he could not affect Su Cha’s life for now.
At present, this person would be too embroiled in a mess. With so much dirt on him, no matter how popular he was, he would not be able to rise up again no matter how capable he was.
Because this had already caused damage and tainted the youth’s minds, he would probably be directly banned.
Moreover, he never would have expected that just one phone call would get him into such big trouble.
If a person had no morals, they would eventually hit a wall.
Su Cha did not care, and while she did not need to compete right now, she did have to go to the studio recommended by Dai Xiaofu to practice her vocals.
Su Cha did not go there these past two days due to the production crew’s situation. When she arrived, Su Cha found that it was just another workplace for Dai Xiaofu, not run by a friend.
Dai Xiaofu came over after her class. Although she was friendly to Su Cha, Su Cha could tell that Dai Xiaofu was hiding something from her.
She transferred her here not because it was convenient but because Dai Xiaofu did not want Su Cha to continue her studies in the other studio.
But what could be the reason that Su Cha was not allowed to be there?
As Su Cha thought about this, Dai Xiaofu came over. She asked her casually, “Is the child from last time doing fine?”
She had asked the same question twice.
Dai Xiaofu did not expect her to ask this question. Her face stiffened for a moment, but she quickly calmed down. “He’s fine. What are you worried about?”
“I’m not worried.”
Su Cha spoke slowly, so Dai Xiaofu could not detect anything unusual from her tone. “But since the child had that accident in your classroom, I’m afraid it has affected you.”
After all, it involved Dai Xiaofu’s class.
Dai Xiaofu was stunned.
Although she and Su Cha were mother and daughter, they were not close. It was not an exaggeration to call them strangers after not seeing each other for so many years.
It was awkward.
However, when she heard Su Cha’s words, she had a complicated look in her eyes. She forced a smile and said, “Thank you for your concern. I’ve already settled the child’s matter. It’s not a big deal. His family members are reasonable.”
Although Dai Xiaofu appeared relaxed on the surface, Su Cha felt that this matter had not been an easy thing to deal with.
But she did not probe further.
She continued to practice what Dai Xiaofu taught her. Dai Xiaofu was not stingy and could not hide her smile. “I also heard about the results of your competition yesterday. You took first place in your group and directly passed into the Top 50, right?”
Su Cha nodded. “I’m lucky to be popular.”
Dai Xiaofu glanced at her. “What’s so strange about your popularity?”
She was so pretty that many people liked her.
She was also talented at singing. She was simply God’s biological daughter.
It was not surprising that such a person was popular.
“But I didn’t expect that you were the champion of Jiang’an Province!”
As she mentioned this, Dai Xiaofu looked at Su Cha with bright eyes. After all, this girl was the top scorer in the college entrance examination!
Dai Xiaofu had been working her whole life, but she had never encountered a child who became the champion of the college entrance examination.
Not to mention that this child was her own daughter. Even if they were not blood-related, there was still this connection.
Dai Xiaofu felt proud at the thought of it. After she found out yesterday, she mentioned it to her current husband. His husband was very happy and wanted Su Cha to come home for a meal.
How glorious it was for her to be able to become the champion.
Dai Xiaofu specially checked and even refreshed the highest score in the liberal arts in Jiang’an Province. This was simply too outstanding!
Chapter 282: Unbelievable Truth
Dai Xiaofu felt that even though Su Cha had grown up with a person like Su Mingzhe, she still became so outstanding. Su Mingzhe simply must have spent eight lifetimes on this. However, she did not understand why Su Mingzhe would let a girl like Su Cha come to the Imperial Capital and join the entertainment industry.
Dai Xiaofu had changed the topic quickly, which made Su Cha smile lightly. “It’s good that Jiang’an Province’s liberal arts exams were relatively simple this year.”
That was true.
Jiang’an Province took the same national exam. This year, the difficulty of the national exam had been reduced. The scores could not be compared to the other provinces’ given the higher difficulty of their college entrance examination. However, the fact that Su Cha’s score could break records in Jiang’an Province proved her ability.
She did not waste her efforts.
“It’s not every year that it’s easy.”
Dai Xiaofu could not stop grinning. “Your uncle wants to see you. Do you want to eat at my place tonight?”
Su Cha hesitated.
She was staying at Bo Muyi’s house now and returned there every day.
However, Dai Xiaofu was her mother at least in name. It should not be a big deal for Su Cha to join her for a meal.
Su Cha nodded. “Okay.”
Dai Xiaofu smiled happily when she heard Su Cha’s agreement. “Okay, you can come back with me after the practice.”
After making arrangements, Dai Xiaofu asked curiously, “Say, did Su Mingzhe really agree to let you come to the Imperial Capital?”
Su Cha’s smile disappeared.
At the mention of Su Mingzhe, her eyes became colder. “He doesn’t care all that much.”
“…”
Dai Xiaofu saw Su Cha’s expression and a thought occurred to her. She asked carefully, “Did you quarrel with him?”
Su Cha shook her head. “It’s not a fight. He never agreed from the beginning, and I never planned to ask for his permission.”
“Since you are so outstanding, he was blessed to have been able to pick you up.”
Dai Xiaofu continued unhappily, “Even if you’re not his biological child, it’s been so many years. He also received so many benefits back then…”
Su Cha frowned and asked, “What benefits?”
She had heard from Dai Xiaofu before about Su Mingzhe taking payment, but she did not probe further.
She had thought that her biological parents had given her to Su Mingzhe as a form of adoption.
Now that Dai Xiaofu mentioned money again, it was obvious that Su Mingzhe got more than that.
Dai Xiaofu realized that she had slipped up, but now that she thought about it, Su Cha already knew that she was not Su Mingzhe’s biological daughter. In addition, Su Mingzhe was not a good person in Dai Xiaofu’s eyes. She thought it through for a while and said, “I’m not sure about your father’s family background, but he must have some means. He even gave a sum of money to Su Mingzhe. I think it couldn’t have been less than five hundred thousand. When we divorced, I didn’t ask for his money. After all, the money was prepared for you. Also, I don’t know if Su Mingzhe has changed his job. He doesn’t have much ability. He was arranged to be a manager of a big company…”
Su Cha could not believe it.
Five hundred thousand!
This was a huge sum for an ordinary family back then!
And a job was even arranged for Su Mingzhe?
She always did think that it was strange. Su Mingzhe was mediocre, so how did he become a manager? However, he had also changed jobs halfway and transferred to a smaller company. Now that she thought about it, it was very likely that he could not continue working in a big company. However, because of this condition, he could continue to work in other companies as a manager. Otherwise, what right did Su Mingzhe have to such a position?
However, Su Cha’s face turned pale at the thought of the treatment she had received.
Chapter 283: I’ll Make a Call
What should she say?
She had never been scolded or beaten by Su Mingzhe.
However, she was never valued since she was young. Without ever receiving her father’s love, she lived in a cold environment.
Su Mingzhe had then married his current wife, Gu Yanfang.
As far as Su Cha could remember, Gu Yanfang had come to their house a long time ago, so she could not recall ever enjoying Su Mingzhe’s fatherly love.
The occasional show of care was a luxury, especially after Gu Yanfang became pregnant.
Even so, it was for Su Mingzhe that Su Cha felt resentment, confusion, and hatred.
Because he was still her father.
But now Su Cha found that Su Mingzhe had not only earned a huge sum of money back then, but he had also earned a living of his own.
Su Cha could not believe it!
If Su Mingzhe had a conscience, he would have treated her well!
Her personality became like this because of Su Mingzhe. In her first life, while some things did have something to do with Su Mingzhe, Su Cha did not want to think too badly of him.
Now, her heart was cold.
She did not know what kind of attitude she should have when facing such a person.
He should not have said that he deserved it.
However, Su Cha could not think well of him no matter how many times she thought about it.
Dai Xiaofu noticed the change in Su Cha’s expression and realized that something was wrong.
She thought about it carefully and could not figure out why Su Cha was being like this. She had said those words in one breath just now, but she could not help but regret it. She did not know the truth and was afraid that Su Cha would think that she was trying to sow discord between them. After all, Su Cha was still raised by Su Mingzhe.
Dai Xiaofu explained, “Actually, I didn’t mean anything by saying that. I mentioned those conditions for your own good. After all, as a girl, you have to have someone to rely on. That money is all yours…”
Before she could finish, Su Cha’s expression changed.
Her eyes were filled with sadness and tears. “You know what? I want to cry right now, but I can’t.”
She was so disappointed that she forgot about her sadness.
Dai Xiaofu’s expression changed and her lips turned pale. “What… What exactly happened?”
Su Cha lowered her head. There was only sadness in her heart. She did not intend to hide anything anymore. She had a feeling that she needed to vent it out, especially after today’s incident.
She briefly explained what had happened to Su Mingzhe over the years. She did not deliberately say anything. The main point was that she had talked to Su Mingzhe during the recent college entrance examination.
Dai Xiaofu was increasingly shocked. In the end, even her face turned pale.
The more Su Cha spoke, the calmer she became. In the end, she became more relaxed. In fact, she just felt aggrieved and needed a channel to vent.
Dai Xiaofu knew that Su Cha would not feel pressured if she said those things in front of her.
In the end, Dai Xiaofu’s eyes turned red. She covered her mouth in disbelief. “Su Mingzhe is a f*cking beast!”
She was trembling with anger. She could not believe that Su Cha had received such treatment for so many years.
“He, Su Mingzhe, should never have treated you that way! He has no conscience. To whom does he owe everything he has today? Who is it?”
Dai Xiaofu was furious. She took out her phone and said to Su Cha, “Stay here. I’ll go out and make a call.”
Chapter 284: Following Fate
Su Cha knew what Dai Xiaofu was going to do.
She nodded quietly and did not stop her.
She also wanted to give him an earful, but with everything she had experienced, she could not bring herself to criticize him.
Su Cha continued practicing her vocals in the room. She closed her eyes and hummed a song while thinking about the past.
Her voice sounded heavy and oppressive. Just hearing it made her heart ache so much that she could not breathe.
Not far away, she could hear Dai Xiaofu’s scolding.
“You are not human! You are a beast!”
“So what if she’s not my biological daughter? Can I not care if she’s not my biological daughter? Can you tell others that she’s not your biological daughter?”
“Su Mingzhe, everything you have today, don’t forget who you owe them to. When he gave you the child, he asked you to take care of her. She became the champion of the college entrance examination. She is so pretty and smart. Even if she is not your biological daughter, you should have cherished her. So many people could only dream of having such a daughter in their lifetime!”
“If you took care of her, then why will she never go back? Didn’t you have it good to have a daughter like her? You still call yourself a human despite what you f*cking did. And let me tell you, your wife is no good either. What, the moment you had a biological child, you began doing such a shameful thing?”
“What do you mean by let’s not talk about her? Not only will I talk about her, but I will also talk about you, you dog…”
…
…
Although she was practicing her songs, Su Cha’s ability to hear had reached a shocking level. Naturally, she heard everything clearly.
She wanted to laugh.
And it was all because of Dai Xiaofu.
Still, she was afraid that the comparison would only make her feel worse.
Dai Xiaofu took care of her for only a while. She then had nothing more to do with Su Cha. But now that they had met again, she was treating Su Cha better than Su Mingzhe ever did.
And now, she was standing up for her.
“Let me tell you, after everything that you have done, the moment Su Cha becomes famous in the future, you better not lay your hands on her!”
Dai Xiaofu hung up the phone and walked in aggressively.
When she saw Su Cha, however, her expression quickly returned to its usual graceful and peaceful state. Even so, her aura was still that of a goddess who had just been enraged.
Su Cha took off her earphones. The girl’s eyes were luminous like the moon hanging in the sky. She was bright and gentle, emitting a gentle glow. “Teacher Dai, are you okay?”
“I’m fine.”
Dai Xiaofu pulled a face and smiled. She did not want to tell Su Cha that she had just quarreled with Su Mingzhe. In the end, the dog had not dared to hang up.
Dai Xiaofu was still furious.
However, she was decisive. “Since he has treated you this way, don’t bother yourself about him anymore. In the future, if you have any problems in the Imperial Capital, just look for me. The money he received back then is enough for him to spend the rest of his life in retirement. Don’t worry about his future.”
Su Cha smiled and did not say anything.
She would not care, but she did not say it.
Dai Xiaofu was still angry. She looked at Su Cha and hesitated. She thought of something and asked tentatively, “Su Cha, do you want to look for your biological parents?”
“Hmm?”
Su Cha looked up at her indifferently. “I’ll let fate decide.”
If she could find them, so be it. If she could not, so be it.
“I see…”
Dai Xiaofu lowered her head as if she was thinking about something.
It was obvious that something had happened.
Su Cha’s eyes flickered when she looked at her. But soon, she regained her composure.
Chapter 285: Different Treatment
After Su Cha finished practicing her song, Dai Xiaofu brought her back home for dinner.
While Su Cha was in the washroom, she called Bo Muyi.
“Muyi, I’m going to my mother’s house for dinner today. I’m not going back to the Lookout Pavilion for dinner. I’ll be back later.”
“Mother?”
Bo Muyi frowned slightly. He knew that Su Cha had met his mother, but he also knew that she was not Su Cha’s biological mother.
Dai Xiaofu’s current situation had been investigated. Although Su Cha could not return to the Lookout Pavilion on time, Bo Muyi himself was still in the company. Since Su Cha was going to her mother’s place, Bo Muyi thought about it for a while and agreed. “Okay. I’ll get the driver to pick you up after you eat. I’ll go home later tonight.”
Right now, he was busy with a lot of work.
“Okay.”
As soon as Su Cha hung up, Dai Xiaofu shouted, “Su Cha, are you done?”
“Yeah.”
Su Cha walked out. Dai Xiaofu asked her in amusement, “Who were you calling just now? A friend?”
“Um… boyfriend…”
She did not want to hide the existence of Bo Muyi, making it seem as if he could not be seen.
She was 18 now; it was normal for her to date.
Dai Xiaofu was surprised. “Boyfriend?”
She looked at Su Cha from head to toe, not finding it hard to accept. “You actually have a boyfriend, but with your conditions…”
There was nothing strange about Su Cha having a boyfriend. After all, she was so pretty, and there must be many suitors after her.
Su Cha smiled and did not explain further. Dai Xiaofu casually said, “Who is your boyfriend? Do you want to bring him to meet me someday?”
Although she was not Su Cha’s biological mother, Dai Xiaofu had always felt responsible for Su Cha. Though she said this herself, she was just stunned for a moment. Then, she looked at Su Cha and could not help but laugh.
Su Cha nodded. “If there’s a chance, I can bring him to meet you. But he’s busy with work. I’ve been busy with participating in the competition recently. If there’s a chance in the future, I will bring him along.”
Dai Xiaofu waved her hand. “You don’t really have to. You’re still young. It’s not a big deal for you to be in a relationship. I was just saying it casually. You don’t have to take it to heart. You haven’t even entered university. You’re making it seem like you’re going to be in a relationship for life.”
Wasn’t that exactly Su Cha’s intention?
Su Cha curled her lips and did not say it.
Su Cha followed Dai Xiaofu home and saw Dai Xiaofu’s current husband. He was a very honest local.
His name was Qu Hai.
Their son was currently at school, so Su Cha did not see him.
Su Cha called Dai Xiaofu’s husband Uncle, but this uncle was friendly to her. He could not help but keep mentioning the fact that Su Cha was a top scorer. During the meal, he could not stop smiling, but he was a little reserved. He probably did not dare to show too much affection to Su Cha. He was just an uncle.
He seemed to be very proud of Su Cha’s high score. Even when Su Cha was about to leave, he said, “From now on, you can treat this place as your home. Come, your brother is about to enter high school. His grades are average. With a sister like you as an example, he will definitely work harder.”
He was already treating Su Cha as a family.
However, he did not go overboard. After all, he knew that Su Cha was living elsewhere, so he did not tell her to stay over.
But this attitude was like heaven and earth compared to Su Mingzhe’s treatment of her.
Chapter 286: Meeting
Su Cha did not reject him. She nodded and said, “Okay, Uncle. I will come by more often.”
Dai Xiaofu smiled as she sent her downstairs. “Your Uncle Qu is a nice person. He knows that you will be very happy in the future. Besides, our son is not very outstanding. Your uncle has a group of friends that often gather together to talk about their children. He doesn’t say much each time. Now that you are here, he can at least brag about you to give his family some clout.”
Su Cha: “…”
She did not expect that she would one day become the pride of others.
In the past, she could never dream of hearing any praise from Su Mingzhe.
But that could not all be blamed on him. At that time, Su Cha’s grades were only average. Su Mingzhe probably found it hard to boast about her and could only feel indifferent.
After sending her to the gate of the neighborhood, Dai Xiaofu waved at her. “Goodbye, Su Cha. Come whenever you want.”
Su Cha also waved. “Goodbye, Mom.”
Dai Xiaofu nodded and smiled as Su Cha left.
However, she did not watch her go for long. After Su Cha disappeared, Dai Xiaofu went back. Naturally, she did not see Su Cha turn around and get into a low-key luxury car.
On the way back, Dai Xiaofu made a phone call with a solemn expression. “Yes, Teacher Wu, it’s me. Is the parent register with you? Didn’t Zuo Nanfan’s parents not come last time? Has it always been his sister who came? I plan to talk to their parents personally to express our apologies for what happened in class. I won’t make any trouble. Yes, you don’t have to tell the child’s sister. Just contact her parents directly.”
After she hung up, Dai Xiaofu’s frown deepened.
She hoped that she was not making the wrong move. There were some things that she had to confirm before she could think about what to do next.
She’d seen that Su Cha was living well, but she no longer had any father-daughter relationship with Su Mingzhe. Dai Xiaofu felt that she should not hide these things from her. Otherwise, she would be too pitiful.
She just hoped that the child would not be too agitated. After all, when she was young…
Dai Xiaofu frowned. She was already so old. The past should be behind her, shouldn’t it?
…
When Su Cha returned to the Lookout Pavilion in the Bo family car, she bumped into the old lady.
The old lady was in a low-key car that looked relatively ordinary. It was hard to imagine that the Bo family would keep such a car.
Su Cha was surprised when she saw it. After a closer look, she realized that inside it was the old lady.
The old lady just got out of the car in front of her. Su Cha got out of the car and saw the old lady walking out elegantly after the driver opened the car door. She was about to greet the old lady when she heard a girl’s tinkling laughter. “Grandma, I’ve sent you all the way here.”
At the same time, a girl who was equally elegant and graceful came down from the other side of the car. She was wearing a lady-like dress, and her entire body was filled with the noble aura of someone from high society. She was so shiny that it could make people not dare to look at her directly.
The old lady instantly felt Su Cha’s gaze.
As the girl got out of the car, she seemed to have sensed something and looked over.
She was stunned when she saw Su Cha.
Su Cha glanced at them and looked at the old lady. “Grandma.”
“Grandma?”
Before the old lady could answer, the girl looked at Su Cha in surprise.
Chapter 287: Returning to the Ye Family
Su Cha immediately knew that this was the old lady’s granddaughter.
But then, was the person who said such things to her before also a granddaughter?
Su Cha did not know how many granddaughters the old lady had.
When the girl saw Su Cha, she did not show much malice, but there was a faint wariness in her eyes.
She looked at Su Cha in confusion.
The girl’s clothes were not as formal as theirs. She looked casual.
However, even though she was wearing an ordinary outfit, she stood straight and had a different aura. Her face was exquisite and beautiful, and she had the kind of beauty that gets deeply engraved in one’s memory. It was impossible for anyone to take their eyes off of her.
Even in front of Miss Ye, she was not cowed at all. Instead, it was the other girl who felt suppressed.
When Ye Jingwen heard her say the word “Grandma,” she had a bad feeling.
She had seen her grandma’s granddaughters before. Where did this one come from?
The old lady nodded at Su Cha. At the same time, she turned around and said to Ye Jingwen, “I’ll take it from here and go in first.”
Ye Jingwen bit her lips. Seeing that Grandma had no intention of introducing the girl to her, she smiled and asked, “Grandma, aren’t you going to introduce her to me?”
The old lady glanced at her, then at Su Cha who was standing by the side indifferently. She said straightforwardly, “Meet Muyi’s girlfriend. She’s younger than you.”
Ye Jingwen’s expression changed instantly. “Girlfriend?”
Su Cha felt that she was better than Tong Ran, even if she was too surprised.
She was worthy of being the old lady’s granddaughter.
Ye Jingwen looked at Su Cha in disbelief. Su Cha nodded slightly and said, “Hello. I’m Su Cha.”
Ye Jingwen’s eyes flickered and her lips twitched. She forced a smile and said, “Hello. I’m Ye Jingwen.”
How could Bo Muyi have a girlfriend?!
This was something that would drive the entire Imperial Capital crazy!
Ye Jingwen was completely shocked.
Despite having greeted each other, they were still just strangers. Of course, they could not say anything too warmly. The old lady brought Su Cha in. Ye Jingwen was already shocked that she was Bo Muyi’s girlfriend, but now that she saw Su Cha enter the Lookout Pavilion, her gaze became indescribable.
It was rare for her to lose her composure. The sudden encounter today had completely surpassed her imagination as a Miss Ye.
Bo Muyi had been in the Imperial Capital for more than twenty years. Who had ever heard of him having a good relationship with any woman?
Many people thought that Bo Muyi was just fooling around, but Ye Jingwen knew that her brother in name, the leader of the Bo family, was a cold and ruthless person. With his iron-blooded methods, even the families backing him could be suppressed by him. One could only imagine his capabilities.
So many years had passed and Bo Muyi had already turned 25. Many people wanted to marry into the Bo family and live in the Lookout Pavilion, but they could not even meet Bo Muyi.
He had a bad temper; if anything made him unhappy, he was capable of doing anything.
Who would believe that he had a girlfriend?!
With his personality, wouldn’t women shudder when they saw him?
And her grandma…
Ye Jingwen’s lips quivered. She got into the car and instructed the driver, “Go back to the Ye family, quick!”
She needed to digest this matter. She also wanted to know who this girl was!
Chapter 288: Ah Chen Said It Himself, Not Me
After entering the Lookout Pavilion, Su Cha did not ask about Miss Ye.
The old lady did not say anything to her either and just said, “I don’t think you two have a common language. You didn’t have to introduce yourself.”
Su Cha smiled. “Do you think so, Grandma?”
The old lady gave her a meaningful look before returning to her courtyard.
Su Cha returned to Bo Muyi’s courtyard. He was not back yet.
Taking advantage of this time, Su Cha returned to her bedroom and started to cultivate.
Recently, she had had to change from meditation to actual combat practice. After all, she had to exercise her body before she could achieve any results.
Her inner-force mental cultivation technique was currently improving. She was aware of her progress, and she also gradually became clear about the division of strength in this world.
From the moment she entered the Lookout Pavilion, Su Cha could already sense where the secret guards were stationed.
These secret guards were secretly protecting Bo Muyi and the entire Lookout Pavilion.
Su Cha had a rough idea of their strength. She could probably fight with them only one at a time.
Other people had been cultivating for decades, but she had relied on her past life’s advantage to practice martial arts that did not belong to this era.
When she could fight against a hundred people at once, Su Cha would be around Bo Muyi, so she basically did not have to worry about his safety.
However, she could also feel that these secret guards had particularly strong external forces, and the aura of their inner force was not very obvious.
In real martial arts, the support of the inner force was very important. Take the lightness skill as an example. With external force, a person could instantly reach the third floor. But with Su Cha’s inner force, she could easily fly up.
This was beyond the imagination of science.
However, martial arts itself did not make sense.
Even the Martial Union and a legendary martial arts school like the Tang Sect existed. What science was there to talk about?
It was easy to detect someone’s inner force. She needed to touch the person’s meridians, but it was a pity that she could not touch anyone under Bo Muyi’s nose.
She had only come into contact with ordinary people. She could not judge the other party’s strength with her naked eyes, so she had to train harder.
But now that she was about to start the actual combat, even though it was not appropriate to be indoors, it was also not realistic to be outside for a long time. After thinking for a while, Su Cha walked out and called out, “Ah Chen?”
Ah Chen suddenly appeared, as if he came from the shadows. “Yes.”
But Su Cha felt him.
He had jumped down from upstairs…
The silent Ah Chen was indeed capable.
She said with a calm expression, “I need a training room. I want to exercise and practice singing. I don’t like people looking at me through surveillance cameras, do you?”
Ah Chen’s eyes flickered as he nodded. “I understand. When do you need it?”
“From tomorrow onwards.”
After saying this, Su Cha went back into the room.
Ah Chen felt that her request was a little strange, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it and went to do it.
After Bo Muyi came back, he asked her directly, “You need a place to exercise? We have one right here. If you still need to practice songs, I will get someone to prepare the equipment for you.”
Su Cha hummed and looked at Bo Muyi. She wanted to tell him about what had happened this morning, but Bo Muyi thought that Su Cha wanted to say something else. He snorted and said, “Ah Chen told me himself. I didn’t ask him. I didn’t monitor you!”
Su Cha: “…”
Chapter 289: Explosion
Seeing Bo Muyi’s awkward expression, Su Cha could not help but laugh. “I didn’t say anything.”
Bo Muyi frowned slightly. “I…”
Seeing his expression, Su Cha found it amusing. She went forward and grabbed Bo Muyi’s wrist. “You will know about these things just by thinking about it. You are too nervous.”
The man looked at her with a deep gaze. “You said that I can’t monitor you. I don’t want you to misunderstand…”
“I can differentiate between a misunderstanding and an unreasonable behavior.”
Su Cha sighed softly. “Muyi, you don’t have to be too nervous all the time. I don’t care about these things.”
Well…
He nodded and held Su Cha’s palm. Suddenly, he smiled. “You went to eat at your mother’s house. Were you happy?”
Su Cha knew that he would also ask about that, so she nodded and said, “It’s great. I was happy to see her current husband.”
A strange light flashed past Bo Muyi’s eyes when he heard that. It was so fast that it was almost undetectable.
“That’s good.”
It was unknown if what he said was meant for Su Cha or if he meant something else.
There seemed to be a deeper meaning in it.
Su Cha had eaten, but Bo Muyi had just returned from the company. She accompanied Bo Muyi for supper. On the way, Su Cha looked at the news on Weibo.
Although Zi You’s matter had nothing to do with her, Su Cha wanted to see how far he had fallen.
As Su Cha predicted, Zi You’s incident had made a huge impact.
On Weibo, he was the most popular trending topic. The top three most popular searches had something to do with him, although the titles did not look good.
In particular, those who had something to do with Zi You, especially the members of his group, were also one of the top ten trending searches.
Sometimes, the trending searches represented a celebrity’s popularity and the attention he or she was receiving. The more famous a celebrity was, the more they liked to stay on the trending searches. Moreover, it was an insider secret that the trending searches could be bought. Many celebrities often became number one on the trending searches because of a trivial matter. The netizens would speculate that they were year-round users on Weibo. Otherwise, all kinds of lousy things would not have gone trending.
Celebrities were proud of getting into the hot searches. In order to gain attention, they did not care about the reason at all.
But no one would want to see their artists’ names on a trending list like Zi You’s.
However, the news continued to spread. No matter how much money they spent, they could not stop it.
Not to mention that this matter was done by Bo Muyi. Who could suppress it?
Zi You had been exposed for having a sugar daddy in the past, and both men and women were involved. Not only that, but he was also often caught flirting with female actors and actresses. There were also some long-silenced issues, including the abandonment of his first girlfriend.
All sorts of scandals were being thrown at him, almost causing his fans to become dizzy and certainly catching his company off guard.
No celebrity could turn this kind of tide.
Zi You’s agency did not dare to clarify this matter. What was there to clarify? Was it a rumor?
Don’t be ridiculous. The video had already been exposed all over the internet. Even if people were just spreading rumors, the agency would not have the confidence to refute them.
Zi You disappeared without a trace. That night, his apartment was surrounded by angry fans.
For the whole day, every trending topic had something to do with Zi You.
The production crew that did not seem to have much to do with Zi You had also become a hot topic because he was a judge in Dreams in Progress.
Chapter 290: He Is Finished
However, this matter did not seem to have much to do with Zi You’s incident. Even if a person had a discerning eye, how could anyone guess that Zi You’s present situation was all because he had called a female contestant in the middle of the night and was then dealt with?
Su Cha was scrolling through Weibo messages when a photo of Zi You suddenly appeared. Bo Muyi’s pupils constricted when he saw it. He took Su Cha’s phone and said, “Don’t look at things that could affect your appetite during dinner.”
“No.”
The girl smiled happily, looking rather malicious. “I’m quite happy that something happened to him.”
After all, if this person were not dealt with, who knew how he would continue harassing her?
Bo Muyi’s method was thorough.
As soon as Bo Muyi saw Su Cha’s smiling face, he could not help but take a deep breath right by her cheek. He squinted his eyes happily and said, “This actually makes you happy? It seems like I did something right.”
Su Cha glanced at him. The man’s expression was obvious. There were three words written all over his face, “Please praise me.”
Su Cha rubbed Bo Muyi’s hair and praised him directly, “Muyi, you are amazing!”
Bo Muyi was elated. “I will be happy if Cha Cha is happy.”
If Zi You heard their conversation, he would have vomited blood.
However, he was already exhausted and desperate.
He could not figure out who did it.
Usually, before a celebrity met with an incident, unless it was an enemy attack, the media would first approach the agency of a celebrity. They would either extort them or lay out conditions, or people who had heard about it could warn them.
It was not like now, wherein something suddenly happened without warning.
When the trending topic appeared, Zi You had been in his apartment and he did not dare to leave.
His manager and a few fellow members called him to scold him. This was no longer his problem. He was a member of the group. Once something happened, everyone would be implicated.
Their IOK had finally attained fame on the national level. Now that it was all ruined by Zi You, the company’s efforts had been completely destroyed. Who would not treat Zi You as a thorn in their side now?
If he had not done such a lousy thing, no one would have been able to make trouble for him.
“Let me ask you again. Do you really not know whom you have offended?”
The manager was questioning him desperately over the phone. Zi You thought for a long time but did not know whom he had offended. He could only cry, “I don’t know. I have offended too many people…”
The manager was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Zi You was already in his twenties, yet when something like this happened, he could only hide in his house and cry, unable to do anything.
And there was truly nothing he could do.
“Zi You, take care of yourself. You won’t be able to survive in the industry after such a big incident. You’d better listen to the company at this time. A clarification meeting will show that you have nothing to do with your group members. Otherwise, do you know the consequences?”
The company could only protect the other members as much as possible. Zi You could only give up.
“Why?”
A person like him would not agree immediately. The manager said harshly, “Why? You actually have the cheek to ask. What right do you have to negotiate with us? Just you wait!”
With that, the manager hung up the phone angrily.
Zi You was at a loss. He cried even louder. For a moment, Su Cha’s face flashed in his mind, but it was insignificant.
He was finished!
