Chapter 158: The Escalating Scandal
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Huo Yunshen remained quiet, as he thought it was Xu Xiyan’s boyfriend.
What kind of a person is her boyfriend?
The kind that gets jealous of everything?
Will he be good enough for her?
Yet, it was Ying Bao on the other side of the phone. She’d call Xu Xiyan to check up on her.
Xu Xiyan hung up after a few minutes and went back to the living room. Huo Yunshen was about to leave.
“Mr. Huo, are you going out?”
“Yes, there’s an important meeting at the company.” Huo Yunshen had changed into a dark suit with a white oxford and black tie underneath. His hair was pulled back with wax. The usual lazy Huo Yunshen had been replaced by a well-groomed, handsome man.
“Let me push you to the van.” Xu Xiyan pushed him out to the van and waved goodbye.
As the van was getting farther away from Shengshi Yujing, Huo Yunshen pulled his head back from the window. The scene just now had felt to him like a wife sending his husband to work.
It was sweet, but it also made Huo Yunshen worried.
Who will Xu Xiyan marry in the future?
Who will stay by her side?
Will that person love her as much as I do?
Xu Xiyan went back to Room 102 and checked the bruises on her chest.
It even hurt to breathe. Xu Xinrou had not held back when she kicked Xu Xiyan.
Xu Xiyan took out some medicine and applied it to the bruises. The medicine was from her grandfather, and could cure any bruises in mere days.
Xu Xiyan did not follow up with everything that was happening at the studio while she was resting at home. Ever since Huang Guoqiang quit his job, the whole shooting process had been put on hold.
For their own future benefits, Xu Xinrou asked Chu Yuhe to go and ask Huang Guoqiang to come back since it was Chu Yuhe’s fault from the beginning.
Huang Guoqiang agreed to continue the shooting under the condition that no one would interrupt him when he was directing the movie.
Chu Yuhe agreed, and Huang Guoqiang returned to the set.
Everything went back to normal, except for the scandal. The cyber manhunt was just the tip of the iceberg.
Everyone was asking who the girl in Ma Haodong’s arms was.
Millions of female friends flooded Ma Haodong’s official social media account, demanding an answer to his relationship status.
The possibility of him being in a relationship was too sudden for his fans.
They couldn’t accept it.
On the other hand, Xu Xinrou was excited by the recent development and asked Wenli to proceed with their plans.
She believed that Ma Haodong’s fans would take care of Xu Xiyan for her.
Xu Xiyan logged into her social media account and noticed that the hot search topics for that day were [Ma Haodong hugging a girl] and [Ma Haodong’s relationship.]
And Ma Haodong’s official account had been flooded with visitors and comments.

Chapter 159: Like A Wife Taking Care Of Her Husband
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
He was such a super celebrity and his fans were plentiful.
[It must be fake! My dear little Ma has no girlfriend! Stop spreading rumors!]
[Little Ma is not that kind of person. If he really falls in love, he will definitely tell us in advance!]
[Nooo little Ma! You can’t leave us!]
[Is this all intentionally done to hype up the new drama “The Root of Evil”?]
[Who is that woman? Why did she want to hook up with our little Ma?]
...
In the afternoon, there were already new developments on the online news sites. Xu Xiyan was surprised that the netizens had already found out who she was. They had shared her information and recent photos, and even found her Weibo account.
For a time, Xu Xiyan’s Weibo account, named “Jing Gongzi”, had skyrocketed in popularity, but in a bad way.
[Breaking news! It is her, Jing Xi, a nameless little actor!]
[A bitch is what she is!]
[You nameless actor, clear little Ma’s name now!]
[She’s not even a good match for Ma Haodong!]
[Shit! Don’t ruin my little Ma!]
[What an unworthy face! I don’t hate you, but I still think you’re disgusting!]
[I know she wants to take advantage of Ma Haodong’s status! I hate this kind of scheming woman! Go back to your hole, nobody!]
[Get lost, Jing Xi!]
...
Xu Xiyan clicked her tongue as she read the hate comments. She never expected that her page would be on fire, and burning with hate.
Because of Ma Haodong, her unpopular Weibo page began to attract more followers.
The hate comments continued to flow in, but Xu Xiyan was unaffected by it and went on with her own business.
After all, the truth would speak for itself!
Even if she tried to explain on Weibo, she could not give a reasonable explanation. She would rather let it be as scandalous news that would be overwritten by other news in a few days, anyway. Who cared about a nameless actress like her?
In the evening, Xu Xiyan prepared dinner, but Huo Yunshen had not returned yet.
A few dishes were served on the table. She covered each one so that they would not go cold.
The clock on the wall read 6:50. Xu Xiyan took out her phone to send a text message to Huo Yunshen, but she had forgotten to charge her phone. It was out of power and had automatically shut down.
At this moment, Xu Xiyan heard some movement outside the door.
It must be Huo Yunshen. She was like a wife waiting for her husband to return home, and happily ran over to open the door for him.
The door opened and a girl appeared inside. Huo Yunshen’s eyes widened with surprise. “Jing Xi?”
The girl was dressed comfortably in homewear with her hair tied up into a neat ponytail. She smiled warmly at him. “Welcome home, Mr. Huo.”
Xu Xiyan went forward cheerfully and found his slippers for him. She helped him change into them, then pushed him into the room.
He hadn’t expected that she would be in his house. To see his beloved woman appearing at the door first thing after coming home made Huo Yunshen feel an indescribable joy.
That morning, she had sent him off to work. And at night, she welcomed him home at the door. It was such a wonderful feeling.
For a moment, he forgot that they were in an employment relationship. She was just like a wife taking care of her husband, and it warmed his heart.
What was even more heartwarming to Huo Yunshen was that Xu Xiyan had already prepared dinner and had waited patiently for him to come home.
All the stress and exhaustion of the day were swept away after he walked through the door.
They washed their hands and began to eat. After dinner, Xu Xiyan pushed Huo Yunshen outside into the community for a walk.
The Shengshi Yujing community was peaceful. The night lights lit the community with beautiful colors. Walking through the area was like walking into a fantasyland.
Xu Xiyan pushed Huo Yunshen along as they strolled for a while. They talked about the recent happenings in the studio.
Then Huo Yunshen suddenly said, “Jing Xi, your identity had been exposed by netizens. I saw the comments online and Ma Haodong’s fans were threatening you. Do you need my help in dealing with them?”
