Quick Transmigration: The Villain Boss is a Bit Cute - Chapter 118
Chapter 18
Su Hua’s photo quickly made a small group of people who were obsessed with appearance collapse, and they followed Su Hua and cheered for her.
This left many netizens utterly baffled.
The move was absolutely “666” (amazing).
De’er: Who called me?
For all Su Hua’s actions online, Lu Yunche could only shake his head helplessly.
Due to previous events, he wasn’t keen on the internet, so he hardly cared about managing his Weibo.
Soon, the cast list for The Immortal Sword Fate was announced, with Lu Yunche’s name among them.
In the original plot, Yu Yue starred in Power Over the World, instantly becoming an A-list actress. Then she took on The Immortal Sword Fate, securing her position as a top actress.
After that, her career soared.
But now, due to Su Hua’s interference, Power Over the World has been halted.
The reason still lies with Yu Yue.
She insisted on starring in Power Over the World, refusing even when Leng Yao offered her a tailor-made show.
Honestly, while Power Over the World is good, it’s hardly worth fighting over like that.
Su Hua speculated that Yu Yue’s determination was simply about rivalry with her.
Yet Su Hua didn’t mind.
She wasn’t acting in it, and neither was Lu Yunche.
Anyway, the scumbag that the original body owner liked before was still involved, so if the project stopped, it stopped.
She had plenty of money, after all.
With her “De’er” on her side, the world was hers.
De’er: “…” Somehow, he felt like a stupid son of the landlord with a lot of money when the host put it that way.
Su Hua’s parents didn’t interfere with her antics since Xingquan Media was their only child’s company.
They didn’t care whether it made money or not, and they certainly weren’t injecting any more funds into it.
If she wasted everything, Su Hua would need to focus on learning the family business properly, which would make them happier.
Meanwhile, Su Hua had raised the investment for Power Over the World to one hundred million.
Director Luo, though quite frustrated by the delays, quickly forgot his complaints when he saw two investors raising the stakes over and over.
When Leng Yao went up to 120 million, Su Hua stopped bidding, withdrew her investment, and retrieved her previous funds.
“Director Luo, although I didn’t secure the investment this time, I did indirectly bring you a huge investment. Let’s work together if we get a chance in the future.”
In no time, Su Hua invested 60 million she retrieved into The Immortal Sword Fate.
She instructed the crew to focus on filming and doing quality visual effects—if they ended up with cheap 50 cents effects, she would kill the director.
Director: “…”
Leng Yao secured his spot as the biggest investor in Power Over the World but felt far from happy!
Anyone would feel the sting, having to pay an extra hundred million for what could’ve been done with twenty million.
This led Leng Yao’s attitude toward Yu Yue to shift subtly; she was now the woman he’d essentially “bought” with a hundred million.
Since he’d paid so much for her, it was only fair she stayed with him.
The Immortal Sword Fate, after much pre-release promotion, finally began shooting.
Su Hua had assigned Lu Yunche an entire team in addition to a manager. And as for his manager? Su Hua would take that role herself.
On the day filming began.
The ceremony took place in a hotel near Hengdian.
The lead actors and director were all well-known, so a crowd of journalists and media arrived.
Su Hua, dressed in a simple shirt and jeans, quietly sat in a corner.
No one paid her any attention.
After a few questions, the reporters turned their focus on Lu Yunche.
Who could resist?
He was one of the most talked-about people right now.
Even though most of the talk was negative, that didn’t matter to the reporters as long as it drew viewers.
“Lu Yunche, rumors are swirling about a relationship between you and Xingquan Media’s new CEO, Ms. Gu. Is it true?”
The director’s face turned cold as he glanced at the reporter.
The reporters had been briefed beforehand on what was off-limits, so this was unexpected.
Just as he was about to step in, the young man answered bluntly, “Yes, it’s true.”
Director: “…” He glanced towards a certain corner, only to see that girl smirking.
The reporter hadn’t expected such a straightforward answer.
Lu Yunche continued, “We’re dating. You’ll probably think our relationship is impure and that she’s my sugar mommy. And yes, that’s true; she’s my sugar mommy. But unlike typical ones, she’s my lifelong sugar mommy.”
Reporters: “…”
Is he feeding us dog food? He is, right?!
“If she ran out of money, would you still love her?” a daring reporter asked.
The director’s expression grew colder.
His assistant already began discreetly investigating the reporter.
But Lu Yunche remained calm, smiled handsomely, and tilted his head.
“Will you ever run out of money?”
Following his gaze, everyone looked to the quiet girl sitting in the corner.
She wore a baseball cap, with a fair and elegant side profile and a delicate nose.
Could this be Xingquan’s new CEO, the Gu family’s daughter?
“No,” she said, her voice clear and echoing through the hall.
“You could never spend all my money in your lifetime.”
All the singles in the room took a critical 10,000 hits; even the non-singles felt the sting.
Lu Yunche’s gaze softened.
As he looked away, his expression returned to its usual coolness, and he addressed the reporter, “You see, she won’t run out of money, so your question doesn’t apply.”
Reporter: “…”
He had hoped for a response indicating he’d love her even without money, so he could write Lu Yunche off as fake.
After all, most people believed their relationship was based on money, but this couple handled it differently.
Lu Yunche was well aware of their intentions.
Even if he spoke genuinely, the media would spin it as insincere.
So, he chose to be bold, throwing them off track.
After the press conference, The Immortal Sword Fate officially started filming.
Su Hua stayed nearby, occasionally playing games on her phone and glancing up to watch Lu Yunche on set.
Though their interactions were minimal, their silent connection was enviable.
Online.
Footage and details from the press conference appeared across major news headlines.
“Fu*k, Gu Hua is such a boss!”
“I want a boyfriend like Gu Hua who lets me spend his money forever.”
“Honestly, it feels like Gu Hua and Lu Yunche have reversed roles.”
“I knew they were dating; turns out it’s true.”
“A CEO fighting with netizens online for Lu Yunche? That’s true love.”
“Haha, come on, Lu Yunche is just whitewashing himself. Remember what he’s done before? Total scumbag!”
It seemed that this comment reminded everyone of Lu Yunche’s past, as the entire comment section quickly turned hostile, with everyone uniting to criticize Lu Yunche.
Su Hua reappeared, leading that small group of face-obsessed fans to take on anyone and everyone online!
