Chapter 127

Su Hua’s Weibo quickly trended.

The matter between Yu Yue and Chu Tianhao had long passed.

The entertainment industry changes so quickly that everyone had mostly forgotten about it.

But now that Su Hua mentioned it, everyone remembered Leng Yao again.

The word ‘again’ was vividly and aptly used.

But where did this ‘again’ come from?

It didn’t take long for them to find out.

Jiang Qianru, who hadn’t been seen in ages, posted a video on Weibo.

The video showed none other than Yu Yue and Chu Tianhao in an intimate scene.

She posted ten consecutive Weibo updates.

Each video was incomplete, and you had to watch the next post to continue.

When Leng Yao saw it, he was so furious he nearly threw his secretary out.

“What happened? Wasn’t the video supposed to be hacked?”

Back when Jiang Qianru told Leng Yao about the video, he had spent a fortune to destroy all of Jiang Qianru’s videos, including scheduled posts on Weibo and timed emails.

Everything had been hacked and removed.

But now, how had it resurfaced?

The secretary had already investigated the matter as soon as it happened.

“President, the other party’s hacker is better than ours.”

Leng Yao kicked over the chair beside him.

“Trash! And they call themselves the best hackers in the country! They can’t even handle a simple video!”

Knock knock knock.

“Come in.”

When Leng Yao saw it was the department manager, his impatience flared.

“What is it?”

“President, because of the online incident, our company’s stock is falling. Many shareholders have started selling, and someone is secretly buying.”

“What is the PR department doing? Hurry up and reassure the shareholders!”

Then he added, “Announce our recent major national project cooperation plan.”

“But…”

If they announced it now, they would lose a significant profit margin.

Leng Yao gave him a cold look.

“Do you have a better idea?”

“No.”

The PR manager quickly lowered his head.

“What’s the reason for the stock drop?”

The PR manager hesitated, lowering his head even further.

“Because of what Miss Gu said in her Weibo post… she said…”

“What did she say?” Leng Yao waved his hand.

“Forget it. Just get out.”

The PR manager and secretary quickly left.

As they exited, they exchanged glances, both seeing the relief of surviving a disaster in each other’s eyes.

The president was terrifying.

Leng Yao picked up his phone and opened Su Hua’s Weibo.

Twenty minutes ago, she had posted something new.

SpendthriftV: “The company’s president got cuckolded, and yet the guy is still walking around unscathed. I’m starting to question his capability as a president.”

Su Hua’s words were cruel, but not without merit.

In the business world, no one is foolish, and everyone’s tactics are ruthless.

Leng Yao was infamous for his ruthless methods, yet Chu Tianhao was merely blacklisted by Xiyao Media instead of being completely banned from the entire entertainment industry.

This made onlookers wonder—did Chu Tianhao have some powerful background?

No, no, Chu Tianhao’s background was well-known.

Both his parents were teachers; there was no hidden power.

Then, was there a problem with Leng Yao’s company, preventing him from acting further against Chu Tianhao?

This seemed the most plausible explanation.

Some truths, when spoken outright, aren’t as scary.

It’s the speculation that’s truly terrifying.

And since these words came from Su Hua, shareholders of Leng Yao’s company began to panic and frantically sell their shares.

“Gu Hua!”

Leng Yao had stumbled over the same woman again and again!

It wasn’t that Leng Yao hadn’t targeted the Gu Corporation.

He had even resorted to underhanded tactics, but every time, the Gu Corporation handled them perfectly.

Leng Yao exhaled deeply and began thinking of countermeasures.

The Gu Corporation was vast; it was impossible for them to cover every corner.

There had to be a loophole somewhere.

As he thought, his mind drifted back to how he had offended Gu Hua in the first place.

After going over it again, he realized—it wasn’t him who had offended Gu Hua.

It was entirely because of his woman targeting her first, and targeting her man.

If he swapped places with her, would he have acted more leniently?

No, he would have been even harsher than Gu Hua.

At this thought, Leng Yao’s resentment towards Yu Yue grew even stronger.

He had given so much for her, yet she had gone out and fooled around.

He should have realized long ago—actresses are heartless.

It was his mistake back then, thinking she was some kind of pure stream.

Who knew—she was nothing but that.

Yu Yue was the first woman Leng Yao had ever truly cared for.

Despite his anger, he still had lingering feelings for her.

But the desire to give her the world and cherish her was long gone.

After finishing Immortal Sword Fate, Lu Yunche spent two days clinging to Su Hua before announcing he wanted to start filming again.

“Boss, am I not attractive to you anymore?”

Lu Yunche rubbed her head with a laugh.

“Why would you say that?”

“Then why do you always want to go film? Don’t you want to be with me?”

“It’s been a while since I acted. I really enjoy it. Plus, when you’re by my side, it doesn’t matter where I am.”

Su Hua still brought Lu Yunche to the company.

A stack of scripts was placed in front of him, and he could choose whichever one he wanted.

“This one.”

Lu Yunche picked a police crime film.

Su Hua nodded and turned to the talent director.

“This one, start the project.”

“Yes.”

The talent director glanced at Lu Yunche, thinking to himself, This is someone you absolutely cannot offend.

A few months ago, this man was buried in scandal, stepped on by everyone.

Now, he was untouchable, admired by everyone.

Life was indeed strange.

Back at the company, the CFO didn’t let Su Hua off easily.

A mountain of documents awaited her signature, and she was pulled into work for the entire morning.

Lu Yunche sat on the office sofa, playing a matching game on his phone.

Occasionally, he looked up at Su Hua’s serious side profile, feeling a soft warmth in his heart.

Although she seemed careless and unreliable at times, she gave him an immense sense of security.

Buzz buzz.

His phone vibrated.

Lu Yunche glanced at the message, and his face instantly darkened.

He deleted the message and blocked the number, continuing to play on his phone as if nothing had happened.

But the sender wasn’t giving up.

They used another number to send the message again.

Seeing this, Lu Yunche simply turned off his phone, out of sight, out of mind.

By the time Su Hua finished her work, it was nearly 1 PM.

She stretched and rubbed her shoulder.

“It’s almost one. Boss, why didn’t you call me?”

“I forgot.” Lu Yunche smiled.

“Come on, let’s go eat.”

“Mm.”

Su Hua stood up and walked with him to the employee cafeteria.

“You’re acting a bit strange today. What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Seeing he didn’t want to talk, Su Hua didn’t press further.

She knew she would find out eventually.

In the cafeteria, there weren’t many people left.

Su Hua and Lu Yunche’s arrival excited those who were still eating.

After all, they were Su Hua’s fans too!

Su Hua was just about to put on a cool demeanor when De’er voice echoed in her mind: “Lin Yan is nearby.”
