“Shishi, are you okay?”
“…”
Qin Zhou immediately went over and held her arm. His heart ached to the core when he saw how hapless she looked.
He did not know much about her past, but after spending so much time together, he had come to trust her character.
If she’s an unwed mother, she must’ve her reasons…
Everyone was caught off guard by this sudden remark, and the scene went out of control again, with everyone buzzing and talking.
“What? Yun Shishi is an unwed mother of two kids?”
“How’s that possible? She doesn’t look like it!”
“That’s right! Usually, women who have children will look more haggard than others of the same age, but her onscreen image has always been pure and innocent, just like a young girl. She doesn’t look like someone who already has children at all!”
“She’s probably well-maintained, isn’t she?”
“I guess so…”
Noticing that the actress was not responding, the reporter continued to question her aggressively. “Miss Yun Shishi, is the question difficult to answer? Let me probe further: There’s a reason you’re unmarried despite being pregnant then, wasn’t there? You signed a million-yuan contract with the Mu family at first, promising to bear children for them via artificial insemination. It’s an open secret then that the fiancée of Mu Yazhe, the leader of the Mu Group, was infertile, and because his family was eager to have his progeny, they hired you out of thousands of candidates to be the surrogate. May I ask: Are these all facts?”
Ji Lin immediately stood up and replied coldly, “This topic has nothing to do with the theme of tonight’s conference, hasn’t it?”
“The most important thing for an artist is to maintain a good public image. I believe many viewers are concerned about what kind of character a favorite artist actually has. If a beloved idol is actually very different in private, it’ll surely disappoint the majority of fans, won’t it?” After a pause, the reporter continued. “Perhaps you had your reasons then for being a surrogate, but when you gave birth to twins for them, you hid one. There are rumors that you did it in hopes of eventually stepping into the Mu family by virtue of the child after you raise him some more. You did it despite the fact that the heir had a rightful fiancée. Do you consider yourself a mistress with such an act, then?”
“No!” Yun Shishi immediately refuted that. “I was no third party!”
“What a dignified response!” The reporter sneered before pressing on. “In reality, you did take the place of Mu Yazhe’s fiancée, Mu Wanrou, by having an affair with the Mu Group’s CEO and smoothly went to become his wife. Unfortunately, his family is opposed to you two’s union.”
“That’s enough!”
With tears in her eyes, Yun Shishi exclaimed through gnashed teeth.
The reporter, who issued questions relentlessly, was bent on destroying her!
The actress seemed to realize something with a start and turned her head to look at her opponent.
She saw the other woman looking at her with a scheming half-smile, with eyes showing outright mirth!
It’s her!
Ji Yan planted this reporter among the crowd tonight.
She had this thought while feeling hateful.
Is it her?
Is this her plot?
