Chapter 980: So You Took Pictures and Leaked Them to the Press, Trying to Ruin Her Reputation?
Yan Su picked up the phone and looked at the headline news. It was a picture of her and Lu Kang coming out of the cinema. Lu Kang’s face was covered up. She was wearing a mask, but people could still recognize her by her eyes.
The headline was — Yan Su and Her Boyfriend Watched a Movie in the Evening, Then Went Back to the Apartment to Spend the Night Together.
“How did this happen?” Yan Su was shocked and angry. “The press is making up stories! When did we go back to the apartment together? Is there a picture of us coming back here?”
“You shouldn’t have gone to the cinema together with him. Don’t you know that it cost them nothing to make up lies?” Mo Liuxi felt uncomfortable when he saw the picture of Yan Su and Lu Kang together. “What now? You are still a new artist, yet you’re already involved in a scandal. Your manager will be angry.”
Being reminded by him, Yan Su immediately thought of her manager. She hurriedly shut her door.
The slam of the door made Mo Liuxi take two steps backward. He frowned, but then smiled.
I doubt you’ll ever go out on a date with anyone else again, he thought.
…
Yan Su found her phone and saw over ten missed calls from Xiang Wan and Jiaojiao.
She hurriedly called Xiang Wan. Xiang Wan answered and asked through clenched teeth, “Why didn’t you tell me that you have a boyfriend? Who’s that man?”
“I don’t have a boyfriend. I just watched a movie with a guy last night.” Yan Su explained with a bitter smile. “I made it clear to him last night. He’s Lu Kang, the assistant of Mr. Nian from Shengting.”
“Oh, him.” Xiang Wan responded knowingly. “I’ll make a Weibo post on behalf of you later. Is it okay to deny the rumor?”
“It’s okay.”
“You need to be careful. Don’t go out with any boy alone, or the press might take more pictures of you and accuse you of being a playgirl. That’s gonna be bad for your reputation. As for this media company, we’ll sue them for defamation.”
“Okay.” Suddenly, Yan Su was reminded that she was going to barbecue with Mo Liuxi in a couple of days; it made her worry.
…
Lu Kang arrived at the office early in the morning. Someone from the CEO’s office showed him the headline news on the phone.
After reading the news, his expression instantly changed. He would be fine, but he worried it might affect Yan Su’s career and reputation.
Yan Su had her face covered last night. How did people recognize her?
Right at that moment, Qiao Xue came over in haste to punch her card.
Lu Kang frowned. He walked up to Qiao Xue and said to her, “You recognized Yan Su last night, didn’t you?”
Qiao Xue nodded and said, “Yeah, I’ve met her.”
“So you took pictures and leaked them to the press, trying to ruin her reputation?” Lu Kang showed her the headline news on his phone.
“I didn’t do that.” Qiao Xue looked at him with disbelief.
“She dressed like this. How could the others possibly recognize her?” Lu Kang tightened his face. Because of this incident, Yan Su would never go out with him again.
“How am I supposed to know? Am I such a sneaky person in your eyes?” Qiao Xue burst into tears with anger. Nothing could be worse than being wronged.
“Why are you two arguing in the middle of the hallway?” The tall and sturdy Nian Junting showed up by their side, glancing at each of them.
Qiao Xue didn’t look at him, but stared straight at Lu Kang and said, “If you think I’m that kind of person, I have nothing more to say.”
She then turned and ran away.
Nian Junting rubbed his forehead. Qiao Xue was probably the only one in the company who would dare ignore him.
“Lu Kang, get into my office.”
