My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 415 - : 415, we’re on TV now.
Chapter 415: 415, we’re on TV now.
Su Wenwen did not want to conjecture maliciously, but some things were just said bluntly.
Lu Zixi’s expression immediately became awkward and embarrassed, “Miss Su, I am not ignoring the problem. However, the clarification I posted on Weibo isn’t trusted by anyone, the comments are filled with criticism towards me.
All of my sponsors are in talks with the company about terminating contracts and discussing compensation – all of my activities have been suspended. Netizens are even jointly calling for a ban on me!
If this issue isn’t resolved, I won’t just lose my career but will also end up with a significant amount of debt…”
“In that case,” SuWanwan looked at her, “why don’t you just admityour mistake?”
Lu Zixi looked stunned.
Su Wanwan continued, “Because all of these things are real. If you admit to them willingly with a good attitude, I believe your fans will understand you…” “No, absolutely not!” Lu Zixi interrupted her frantically, “If I admit it, my career will completely be destroyed.”
“The state you’re in right now, how is it different from being destroyed?”
Lu Zixi was stunned once again: “…”
Her phone rang, Su Wanwan pulled her hand away, “My friend is rushing me, goodbye.”
She pulled open the door, only to be suddenly confronted by a flood of flash photography as soon as she stepped out of the office.
The flashes were continuous, their glaring light forcing her to raise a hand to shield her face.

Huo Yuan Group.
After Huo Jingshen finished a transcontinental video conference, he came back to his office just as Ji Jie rushed in.
“Mr, Huo, something’s happened to your wife!”
Huo Jingshen’s eyebrows furrowed while his long, skeletal hand pushed open the door, “Who did she beat up this time?”
Ji Jie grimly replied, “No, your wife is on TV.”
Huo Jingshen: “…”
On TV?
He strode into the office and behind him, Ji Jie began to narrate, “The recent scandal involving Lu Zixi having a child underage, a group of journalists tracked her down to her school and just happened to run into your wife. They confronted each other on the spot, your wife made some comments, and now she’s gone viral online! Everyone is praising your wife!”
Huo Jingshen once again: “…”
Truly unexpected.
A minute later, the man sat in his black leather chair, arms crossed over his chest, observing the interview news calmly.
The camera was focused on the corridor of the school’s office, Su Wanwan stood there while a group of journalists asked her questions with their cameras and microphones:
“What’s your relationship with Lu Zixi?”
“Do you know about her underage pregnancy?”
“Did Lu Zixi really abandon her child after giving birth?”
“Miss, are you the nanny of that child? Please…”
The final sentence got cut off by Su Wanwan, “Have you ever seen such a young and pretty nanny like me?”
“Pfft!” Ji Jie burst out laughing, and quickly covered his mouth.
Continuing.
“What exactly is your relationship with Lu Zixi?”
“What’s your view on Lu Zixi’s incident?”
“Why did Lu Zixi look for you?”
Before Su Wanwan could reply, a journalist shouted, “Lu Zixi is coming out!”
“Lu Zixi, Lu Zixi!”
“And Zan Song!”
The scene thus devolved into chaos, with all three surrounded by journalists shoving mics in their faces, flashes going off continuously, and innumerable questions thrown at them.
Except for the comparatively composed Su Wanwan, Lu Zixi, the one at the center of the issue, was obviously panicking.
In the midst of the confusion, she suddenly turned to Su Wanwan, “Miss Su, even if you don’t want to help, there’s no need to be so ruthless. Do you really want to destroy me?”
Su Wanwan frowned in puzzlement, “What do you mean by that?”
Lu Zixi, while trying to avoid the cameras, said, “Only you and Mr. Wang knew that Zan Song and I were coming here. Mr. Wang, who’s been friends with Zan Song for many years, would never betray us…”
“Enough!” Su Wanwan abruptly interrupted, her beautiful face abruptly turned cold and aloof, “You’re the one who messed up in the past, and now that your actions have been exposed, instead of thinking how to rectify the situation, you want to cover up the truth?
After realizing you can’t cover it up, you looked for others for help. When others don’t help, they’re deliberately harming you? Trying to destroy you?
No wonder people say the entertainment industry is so superficial nowadays. Idol stars only pursue their looks, not their acting skills. It’s precisely because of stars like you, lacking substance and devoid of responsibility, that this is happening!
“Idols” huh? You’re fooling the public and corrupting society, leading a bad example for children! You’re also bringing down the standards of other idol stars! One rotten apple spoils the barrel!”
Huo Jingshen looked at the face of Su Wanwan on the screen, with a slight smirk on his thin lips.
The young lady was passionately speaking with an emotional, angry, and sarcastically cheerful expression, particularly those beautiful phoenix eyes that were full of cold, glittering light, staring directly at Lu Zixi.
One being upright and forthright, the other retreating with guilt.
Such a juxtaposition clearly defined the highs and lows.
Ji Jie hurriedly began to flatter, “Didn’t expect the young madam to have such strong values, the internet is full of praises for her.”
“Oh?” Huo Jingshen seemed to be in a good mood, “What are they praising her for?”
Ji Jie’s eyes lit up as he quickly took out his phone, opened a tweet, and scrolled down to the comments section, “Take a look, boss Huo.”
Huo Jingshen raised his brows, looking at the comments.
[This lady has got her values right! ]
[Justice might be late, but it will never be absent! ]
[Lu Zixi, you did wrong but don’t even dare to admit it. Now you blame the lady for not helping to cover you up?]
[Glad the lady didn’t join in the corruption!)
[The lady is pretty and has a sweet voice, much more attractive than Lu Zixi! ]
[Is the lady also a celebrity? Can anyone guide me to her Weibo account?]
[Within five minutes, I want all the information on this girl.]
[Looking for Weibo! Looking for Weibo! Looking for Weibo!]
At first, Huo Jingshen’s expression was pleasant, but as he continued reading those comments, his brows furrowed deeper, his expression becoming increasingly stern.
In the end, his face turned almost sullenly grim.
Ji Jie was terrified, he even began to doubt his life.
What’s going on?
Isn’t this all praise for the madam?
Why is Boss Huo suddenly unhappy about praising the madam?
Until…
With a “bang”, Huo Jingshen slammed the phone onto the table.
The loud sound…
Scared Ji Jie out of his wits.
That was his new iPhone, bought just for playing PUBG!
“Immediately find someone to block all the information, never allow any photos or videos of the madam to appear on the internet.”
“Why?” Ji Jie blurted out, then quickly covered his mouth, “I’m sorry Boss Huo, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Saying that, he grabbed his phone and ran off.
God, Boss Huo is so unpredictable, like a grim reaper!
Always changing his mood without any warning, terrifyingly unpredictable!
Damn, serving as Huo’s assistant for half a year, he felt like his life expectancy had been shortened by several years.
Huo Jingshen sat there, fingers pressing against his forehead, his handsome face slightly tense and serious.
Looking at the young lady’s beautiful face on the screen, especially that teardrop mole under her eyes, blooming like a peach blossom. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Actually, Su Wenwen’s appearance was very distinctive, even though she didn’t wear much makeup and dressed casually, anyone who saw her once would find it hard to forget.
Several seconds later, he suddenly picked up his phone and dialed a number, “Lao Gu, I need your help with something.”

Huanyu Media.
Today, Ye Qitian was called back by his manager for a meeting. Just as he walked through the company’s main entrance, he saw Lu Zixi and Zan Song coming out from a conference room. He stared and was about to rush over for an argument.
“What are you trying to do?” Manager Xie Ding quickly stopped him.
Lu Zixi bit her lip and left, while Zan Song snorted coldly, “Ye Qitian, what… do you also want to kick someone when they’re down?”
Xie Ding quickly laughed it off, “Director Zan, don’t misunderstand. Qitian was just immersing himself in his script, where he plays a mentally ill patient. He got too absorbed.”
Zan Song: ”??? ”
After Zan Song also left, Xie Ding quickly dragged Ye Qitian into the conference room.
“My god, for the love of god, could you please not interfere in other’s business? Do you think you can afford to offend Zan Song? I took a lot of effort to get you into this industry. You’re trying to ruin your future, aren’t you?”
In recent years, Lu Zixi’s popularity had been entirely attributed to Zan Song. His script selection and shooting techniques were indeed outstanding. Xie Ding wanted Ye Qitian to get roles in his upcoming projects as well.
Ye Qitian didn’t care at all, “Lu Zixi bullied my junior sister, and she’s facing a media blockade. What are you afraid of?”
Xie Ding was speechless, “Anyway, listen to me, you must not get involved in this.”
The entertainment scene was all about taking sides, let alone them being in the same company.
For many years, Deng Anya had been the top actress of Huanyu Media. But in the past two years, Lu Zixi, following Zan Song, had shot several web-novel adaptations, took the idol-route and rose to fame rapidly. She quickly became the most popular national goddess on screen.
