The two of them returned to Longwan Residential. Gu Yao was still puzzled. “Is it fun for Xia Mengyan to pretend? This clearly has nothing to do with her, but she insisted on interfering.”
At this moment, the netizens were still discussing fervently. The production team finally came forward to clarify the matter. First, they criticized Xia Tong for distorting the truth. She was clearly the one who used her connections to enter the production team and secretly manipulated things, but she was the one who slandered the production team. It was good that they were no longer working with her. They did not want to work with Xia Tong either and even decided to sue her for slander.
Immediately after, the production team sent another message to apologize to the chief designer of Liuli, whose real name was Qiao Xi. According to Gu Zheng’s request, they explained the situation clearly and deeply reflected on their mistakes. They also expressed their sincere apology to Miss Gu Shan.
The two pieces of news from the production team explained the matter very clearly. Everyone also reacted.
[Ah! My worldview has collapsed, so the person who plagiarized is Xia Tong! She stole Gu Shan’s design and even accused Gu Shan of plagiarism! Is she crazy?]
[The production team is in the wrong too! They helped Xia Tong hide the truth for the sake of investing. If the designer wasn’t Gu Shan, that person would definitely have been misunderstood. Fortunately, Lu Zhi was able to stand up for her and prove her innocence.]
[The production team has apologized, which means that they’ve already repented. However, not only did Xia Tong not apologize, but she even continued to distort the truth. Why is she so shameless?!]
[I admit that I spoke a little too loudly earlier. I’m sorry, Gu Shan. We were wrong.]
The internet instantly exploded as netizens berated Xia Tong. Soon, someone reacted. [Right, it seems that someone tried to persuade Xia Tong in the comments section earlier!]
[I remember too. That person is Xia Tong and Gu Shan’s family member. I think her name is Xia Mengyan. She said that it was Xia Tong’s fault and even asked Xia Tong to apologize to Gu Shan. At that time, she was even scolded badly by Xia Tong’s fans. My heart aches for her!]
[Looks like Xia Mengyan and Gu Shan have a good relationship! When she heard that her cousin was wronged, she immediately stood up for her. Even though she was insulted by everyone, she didn’t delete the comment. I want to have such a cousin too.]
Just as everyone was praising her, someone said in confusion: [That’s not right! I remember that Xia Mengyan framed Qiao Xi before and caused an uproar on the internet. Indeed, the internet doesn’t have memories.]
[That’s all in the past. It must be a misunderstanding! If Xia Mengyan could stand up for her, why would she frame her?]
Qiao Xi looked at the comments online, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. A single comment was enough to clear Xia Mengyan’s name, offsetting the scandal of her trying to be a mistress and snatching someone else’s fiance.
Since Xia Mengyan liked acting so much, Qiao Xi would continue acting with her!
Qiao Xi raised her eyes and looked at Gu Zheng. She knew that it was Gu Zheng’s doing that the production team apologizes so readily. Actually, she did not care if the production team apologized or not. She was very curious about what benefits Xia Mengyan had given Xia Tong to make her agree to such an unreasonable request.
Gu Zheng raised his cup and took a sip of coffee. His fingers tapped lightly on the table as he asked with a smile, “Do you want to know what benefits Xia Mengyan gave her?”
“Actually, it’s very easy to guess. The fact that Xia Tong plagiarized can’t be hidden. Instead of struggling at death’s door in the entertainment industry, she could take this opportunity to leave. At this moment, Xia Tong seems to be despised by everyone and has no choice but to leave the industry. In reality, she’s willing to withdraw from the industry. The Xia family gave her a guarantee that she could still have money to spend even after she leaves the industry. She naturally agreed.”
To put it simply, Xia Tong entered the entertainment industry to earn money. Even if she had to leave the entertainment industry now, she would be earning more than before. Moreover, she did not have to be insulted. What reason did she have to refuse?
“Shares?” Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows and realized that Xia Mengyan must have given Xia Tong shares. Although Xia Tong was not a popular celebrity, her salary was not low either. Since Xia Mengyan could make her give up her reputation and future, she must have promised Xia Tong a lot of shares.
However, why did Xia Mengyan have to pay such a huge price just for a good reputation?
While Qiao Xi was still puzzled, Xia Mengyan suddenly started a live broadcast. Back then, when Xia Mengyan was in the midst of a scandal where she was said to have snatched someone else’s marriage contract, a group of brainless fans still believed that their idol would not do such a thing. Coupled with the Xia family spending a lot of money on public relations, they quickly suppressed public opinion. Now that everyone was talking about this new incident, the netizens were not as angry as before.
Moreover, Xia Mengyan had stood up for Qiao Xi this time. Not only had she cleared her name, but she had also attracted a large number of fans.
