Chapter 508: Shocking News

Translator:?Larbre Studio?Editor:?Larbre Studio

“What gossip? Let me see.”

Xiao Yuqian ended the call and immediately turned on her computer to check the news sites.

There was a gossip piece about Huo Yunshen, headlined: [Shocking News! Award-winning Actor Huo Yunshen Has A Daughter! (Photos Inside)]

The “shocking news” lived up to its name. The article was forwarded and shared all over the internet in record time. The internet forums were flooded with discussions about it.

[Huo Yunshen already has a daughter? So I guess the earlier gossip about him having a gorgeous wife has to be true, right?]

[This proves that our prince charming can still do it, if you know what I mean. He has a child! All those trolls who kept saying he’s impotent can get lost now.]

[OMG, that little girl in the photos, isn’t that Cherry Baby, the internet child celebrity? I love her! ]

[Is that little girl really Huo Yunshen’s daughter?]

[She has to be! Look at her dimples, they’re just like Huo Yunshen’s. Man, those are some crazy powerful genes!]

[The little cutie pie is so pretty! I wonder who the mother is…?]

[OMG, I know our prince charming keeps a low profile, but a daughter, really?! Where’d she come from? This is crazy, I can’t believe it!]

…

Xiao Yuqian’s face darkened after reading the gossip piece and the internet comments. She was pretty sure the news was fake.

Huo Yunshen had just taken over the reins for the Huo Group and had attracted a lot of public attention because of that. He was the talk of the town.

Xiao Yuqian guessed that someone had noticed the dimples on Cherry Baby and decided to cash in on the current public interest surrounding Huo Yunshen by spinning a sensational clickbait story alleging that the little girl was Huo Yunshen’s daughter.

She understood why Wan Dao was so nervous: Jing Xi might see the news and be upset with their boss.

It did not matter whether the news was true or false; the sudden existence of a child always spelled bad news for romantic relationships.

Previously, back when their boss was still part of Yunhai Entertainment, he’d had a professional PR team to help him deal with pesky gossip and rumors.

But their boss had resigned and taken over the Huo Group instead. That meant he would have to assemble a new PR team to help him deal with this new scandal.

Xiao Yuqian immediately forwarded the news to Huo Yunshen and left a voice message: “Boss, what do you think? Do you want me to get a PR team to help you deal with this?”

…

The RV had just entered Shengshi Yujing when Huo Yunshen received a link to a website from Xiao Yuqian.

He opened the link, and immediately frowned at what he saw.

He could not believe it: had the media exposed his relationship with Cherry?

How had they discovered Ying Bao’s identity?

Xu Xiyan wheeled Huo Yunshen out of the RV and into his apartment.

Once they were inside, she noticed the worried look on Huo Yunshen’s face and asked curiously, “What’s wrong, Yunshen? Is everything all right?”

“It’s nothing. Don’t stay up too late, Jing Xi,” Huo Yunshen replied simply.

“Okay. Good night.”

Xu Xiyan guessed that he had a private matter to deal with. She returned to her own apartment through the crystal door.

Huo Yunshen waited until she had left before entering his study. He immediately called Xiao Yuqian and instructed her not to help him deal with the gossip through Jingyue Entertainment’s connections. He would deal with it himself.

After that, he called Yi Xiao. “These are my orders, pass them on: I want a complete clampdown on the gossip. Find out the source of the news, and make sure to blacklist all the media outlets involved.”

He was doing this mainly to ensure Ying Bao’s personal safety.

He did not want Ying Bao to be exposed to the pressures of public opinion or dangers from the outside world. More importantly, he did not want her to be pulled into the shady world of showbiz. She was too young for that.

…

Meanwhile, in Xu Xiyan’s apartment…

Xu Xiyan walked out of the shower and flopped onto her bed, feeling refreshed. She was about to call Ying Bao on her phone when her phone suddenly rang.

She looked at the number: it was Qi Liya. Xu Xiyan sat up and took the call. “Hi, Ms. Qi.”

“Jing Xi, I have bad news. It’s Director Huang. He’s in trouble.”
