Chapter 33: The Second World (9) [Part 3]

Regarding this, Ji Mo was not really able to comment.

“However, I have Sister Luoluo, Grandpa and the others, and Sister Ji. I don’t care if my brother likes me or not. He only listens to Xia Qing and doesn’t care about Yinyin anymore, so Yinyin has decided not to care about her brother either.”

Ji Mo didn’t say anything. It’s not good to speak this time, especially when the matter involves the little boss’s brother. But even if she was asked to praise Yun Yang, she couldn’t really say anything sincere.

“Sister Ji, let’s go to sleep. Yinyin has disturbed you.”

The little boss was indeed considerate and well-behaved.

“It didn’t disturb me, Yinyin can talk if she wants to.”

Yun Yin asked, “Sister Ji, do you find your work tiring?”

“It’s alright.” A salted fish like her only worked slightly harder when filming.

Yun Yan once again asked, “Is there anyone who bullies you? Like forcing you to drink alcohol, pressuring you while shooting scenes, touching your hands, and trying to take advantage of you with all sorts of excuses?”

Ji Mo quickly perked up. The little boss knew a lot.

“No.”

Yun Yin’s expression turned solemn. “Sister Ji, no lying.”

“Really no.”

Only then did Yun Yan become convinced. “Sister Ji, if someone is bullying you, just give Sister Luoluo a call and complain. She will definitely give you a helping hand. Sister Luoluo is very powerful and there is nothing she can’t handle, so you can look for her with a peace of mind. You don’t have to worry about owing her any favors, I’ll help you with that. In the future, when I’m finally an adult and have the abilities, I’ll help you pay it back.”

Ji Mo was amused. “Alright.”

Ji Mo had a good night’s sleep, but little did she know that in the middle of the night, a storm was surging on the internet.

A hot search unknowingly climbed up because of its eye-catching name, which caused netizens to subconsciously click on it to see: #ZhuoRuiJiMoRelationship#

Who is Ji Mo? Besides her own fans, most people aren’t familiar with her. Even if they’ve seen her TV dramas, they might not recognize her name.

Who is Zhuo Rui? Almost no one doesn’t know him. Anyone who uses the internet or watches TV dramas knows him. He’s the movie king ah. He’s the actor who has exploded in popularity for several years and is an undisputed powerhouse in the industry.

Sure enough, it was the same with Zhuo Rui’s prediction. As long as he asked someone to edit a Weibo post about his relationship with Ji Mo and includes some pictures, it would definitely set off a craze online.

He is not worried at all. He knows that Ji Mo will try to defend herself, but without any sufficient evidence, his fans will support him, and Ji Mo’s reputation will hit rock bottom.

But he would be the first to clarify that he was still single.

By then, it will be obvious who bought this hot search.

It just so happened that he had just worked with Ji Mo recently, and he had encountered previous cases of female artists trying to use the tactic of using him to create hype.

However, it was generally the female artist who would be scolded for creating hype.

In the past few months, he felt extremely frustrated, and he was constantly defeated and lost face in front of Ji Mo, which was something that had never happened before.

Just yesterday, he was insulted and called shit by the other party. If he didn’t try to regain his reputation, he wouldn’t be called Zhuo Rui. She shouldn’t have provoked him.

Reading the comments under that Weibo post, people were telling Ji Mo not to use the movie king to create hype. In addition, all kinds of malicious comments were directed at Ji Mo. Looking at these comments, Zhuo Rui finally felt a bit better.

After waiting for a while, he told his studio to post a clarification post stating that he’s not in a relationship and also advising his fans to be more sensible and focus on their own interests.

He had faith that his fans would certainly stand up for him and use their alternate accounts to help him out.

As for this matter, there was no need to buy a water army. Since he and Ji Mo aren’t really involved with each other in the first place, people will only think that he was the victim of this publicity stunt.

When his studio posted the clarification post, Zhuo Rui finally slept with peace of mind. His scene has not yet been done, and he still has work tomorrow.

Ji Mo’s phone was turned off during the night, and as soon as she turned it on, she received a call from her manager, Song Mian.

“Why did you only turn on your phone now?” Song Mian was not too worried because Ji Mo was just a relatively unknown artist in the company under her management. She still had to pay some attention, though, given that Ji Mo was someone who could secure acting roles with her own abilities.

Ji Mo, who was still a bit dazed, replied. “It’s my day off, I just woke up.” She glanced around and noticed that Yun Yin was nowhere to be seen. It’s true that someone who will be a big shot in the future got up early in the morning.

“Have you looked on Weibo?”

Ji Mo became slightly more awake. “Look at what? I don’t usually spend much time on Weibo.” In normal times, she only reposted things that should be reposted, keeping her Weibo account quite clean.

“You look quickly at it now.”

Ji Mo obediently opened Weibo and saw the trending first hot search. It was about her and Zhuo Rui’s supposed relationship. Seeing this, Ji Mo was somewhat enlightened.

“So it’s about this,” Ji Mo said nonchalantly. “It’s nothing. Just someone making baseless rumors.”

“I know it’s baseless rumors. Did you offend someone recently?” Song Mian felt a bit speechless.

Ji Mo: “I’m a person who is relatively easy to get along with, and everyone is friendly with me. Generally speaking, there’s no such thing as offending others.”

“Just tell me about special circumstances,” Song Mian asked anxiously, getting more and more worried, similar to how one would feel with constipation.

“It might be Zhuo Rui’s doing.”

Song Mian felt that it was impossible. “But he’s a movie king, using this kind of publicity stunt doesn’t work for him at all.”

“What if he did it to vent his frustration and make the netizens scold me?”

Song Mian furrowed her brows. “Did you offend him?”

“He’s the one who offended me first.”

Song Mian: “…”

“What happened? Say it clearly at once. This matter isn’t small, and while it won’t affect the company, it will have a serious impact on you personally. Zhuo Rui’s fans aren’t ordinary. When the time comes, you will be flooded by their scolding comments to the point where you can’t even see the sky.”
