Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 1770: Chapter 1672: Danger

Netizens mentioned Shangguan Zhuo, and soon many people recalled that Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue once sold CP.

Those fans are really amazing. Before Su Lingxue had any incident, each one felt that Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue were a perfect match, regarding Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue as the official pairing of a cool uncle and a cute loli;

However, now that something has happened, those fans look back at the footage of Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue’s CP and interpret Shangguan Zhuo’s attitude as indifferent and estranged, all shouting that they were fooled, and feeling sorry for Shangguan Zhuo.

”It was all forced by Huan Rui, my Uncle Zhuo really didn’t care about Su Lingxue. Just look at the interview, my Uncle Zhuo’s gaze towards Su Lingxue is so cold, even with disgust, it’s clear he doesn’t like Su Lingxue at all!”

”Uncle Zhuo has sharp eyes, he instantly saw that Su Lingxue is a promiscuous woman. How could a woman like that interest my Uncle Zhuo!”

”Look at that episode of ’Happy Family,’ Su Lingxue participated in a game with the host, yet my Uncle Zhuo preferred to help Wu Xin, keeping his distance from Su Lingxue, hahaha, why do I find this so funny, it feels like my Uncle Zhuo considered Su Lingxue a fierce beast, not wanting to go near her at all, right?”

”...”

Netizens one by one turned into Sherlock Holmes, searching all over the internet for footage of Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue appearing together, and analyzing scene by scene, becoming increasingly convinced that Shangguan Zhuo has absolutely no feelings for Su Lingxue, and it’s completely one-sided hype by Su Lingxue.

Now, everyone realized that all of this was just a ruckus Su Lingxue created to gain attention, using Shangguan Zhuo’s fame and popularity to boost her own recognition.

Many netizens cursed Su Lingxue and Huan Rui viciously, while expressing great sympathy for Shangguan Zhuo.

Some even voluntarily started trending topics on Weibo, and soon, a hashtag called #UncleZhuoDontCry# was pushed to the top, surpassing #SuLingxueGetOutOfTheEntertainmentIndustry# and #LuoShaoqunDivorce#, and directly reaching the first place.

However, contrary to what netizens expected, Shangguan Zhuo didn’t respond to Su Lingxue’s situation at all, going about his filming as usual, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Meanwhile, the reporters, like flies, gathered around whenever they sensed any news.

”Mr. Shangguan, what do you think of the recent scandal involving Su Lingxue’s affair?”

”It’s said you have a special relationship with Su Lingxue, did she contact you after the incident?”

”You are the recognized CP onscreen, did you know about such a scandal beforehand, Mr. Shangguan?”

Shangguan Zhuo was evidently taken aback by the reporters’ questions, looking bewildered. After the reporters asked their pointed questions, Shangguan Zhuo finally responded faintly with: ”Who is Su Lingxue?”

Shangguan Zhuo’s words were sharp, choking the reporters, making them unable to continue asking questions.

Because everyone knew that in this incident, Shangguan Zhuo was a victim, and prior to this, although Huan Rui and Su Lingxue publicly hinted to the media that Shangguan Zhuo and Su Lingxue were in a relationship, Shangguan Zhuo himself never responded positively.

In other words, Shangguan Zhuo never acknowledged any relationship with Su Lingxue.

Therefore, at this time, when Shangguan Zhuo questioned who Su Lingxue was, no one could fault him.

Shangguan Zhuo’s fans felt very relieved by his response, praising it as brilliant.

The reporters, being clever, understood that Su Lingxue wouldn’t have a chance to rise again, while Shangguan Zhuo was extremely popular. They were willing to do Shangguan Zhuo a favor, thus the reports they wrote mostly leaned in favor of Shangguan Zhuo.

Su Lingxue was now considered a disgrace in the entertainment industry, with Huan Rui terminating her contract, her reputation ruined, making a comeback impossible.

Faced with such an outcome, Huo Sining couldn’t muster any sympathy for Su Lingxue.

If she and Xie Yuxing hadn’t been vigilant, if they had been slightly careless, all of this might have happened to her or Xie Yuxing. By then, it would have been she and Xie Yuxing bearing the brunt of these consequences. So, Huo Sining felt no sympathy for Su Lingxue, blaming only her malicious intentions towards herself and Xie Yuxing, and the subsequent events were just Su Lingxue’s reaping of what she sowed.

Huo Sining considered it all past now, and after half a month, Zhang Ziyi’s reshoot scenes were completed, and ”The Legend of the Mermaid” filming entered the final stage.

Gu Xu lingered in Meishan for a while, got familiar with the crew, and originally, everyone learned of Huo Sining and Gu Xu’s marriage from an earlier online live stream, so it felt somewhat unreal.

With Gu Xu now being obedient and doting towards Huo Sining, showing real affection and love in his eyes, the crew started believing the reports and realized that Young Master Gu truly adored Huo Sining deeply, contrary to the gossip about their fake relationship and separate private lives.

The more they saw Gu Xu pampering Huo Sining, the more the female stars and staff in the crew envied Huo Sining. Even Zhang Ziyi’s eyes occasionally flashed with jealousy, fantasizing about being admired by such a man, having power, status, and money, making her life perfect.

However, such thoughts remained in Zhang Ziyi’s mind, as she subconsciously glanced at Shangguan Zhuo’s side, but Shangguan Zhuo’s gaze did not look in her direction. Even after she joined the crew, their relationship didn’t improve, remaining as distant as strangers, causing Zhang Ziyi great frustration.

After finishing the day’s filming, Huo Sining planned to return to the hotel. Gu Xu replaced Yang Suxin as Huo Sining’s personal assistant and immediately went to the garage to fetch the car. Seeing this, Huo Sining waited at the crew’s entrance, feeling bored, she took out her phone and started browsing Weibo.

After scrolling a few times, she received a private message from a stranger, and upon opening it, couldn’t help but laugh.

[Miss Huo, I’m Qimi. Thank you and the foundation for your help. My father’s surgery was very successful, and the doctor said with good care, he will recover.]

Recalling Qimi’s previous behavior, Huo Sining remembered her earlier plans, thinking about asking Qimi if he was interested in working for her. But as she typed a few words, her eyelid suddenly twitched, feeling flustered, and sensing something wasn’t right, as if there was some danger.

In that moment, she suddenly raised her head, and instantly saw, in the distance, a car speeding rapidly towards her location!
