But since things had already happened, Xiao Wei couldn’t say anything about it. So, he said, “I’ll come over immediately. Call Miss Su’s assistant here as well.”
“Okay, come quickly,” Xu Chaoran said.
Xiao Wei made a sound of acknowledgment and hung up. Then, he went to look for Su Yaya’s assistant, Duan Xiaoyu so the two of them could head to the hospital together.

Anywhere there were celebrities, there were bound to be paparazzi. They had keen noses, keen eyes, and keen ears. Anywhere any bit of wind could be picked up of a celebrity, those paparazzi will be there like wolves towards the smell of meat. Then, they’ll grab hold of the gossip and expose them all.
Naturally, the matter of Xu Chaoran bringing Su Yaya to the hospital to see a doctor did not escape the media’s eyes. They were photographed by the all-pervasive Reporter X and posted online.
On that night, a post with the title “Breaking news, Xu Chaoran and Su Yaya’s real relationship exposed! Not just mere fellow apprentices, they’re lovers!” broke out in Weibo and achieved a shocking all-time high view rate in the entertainment circle.
Reporter X writes on Weibo, “Two days ago, Xu Chaoran suddenly posted on Su Yaya’s page. Both of them called each other fellow apprentices and everyone was shocked. How could these two who were usually not connected suddenly so close with each other? And even became fellow apprentices? At that time, many fans had also joined in with their game of apprentice brother and sister, confessing mutually to each other, and the whole ordeal gave birth to many pairs of new couples. I believed that Xu Chaoran and Su Yaya were truly fellow apprentices but I was wrong. Image above.”
Reporter X uploaded a large number of photos. First, it was a picture of Su Yaya accidentally falling into the water on set, a picture of Xu Chaoran getting anxious, him being the first to jump in to save her, and then pictures of Xu Chaoran holding her without letting go after saving her. Then, it was the scene at night where Xu Chaoran was looking for Su Yaya’s room, him carrying Su Yaya and running to the elevator, driving her off to the hospital, and also the picture of him carrying Su Yaya to the doctor.
At the very end of all this, Reporter X also wrote on his Weibo, “According to what I counted, Xu Chaoran ran three red lights while driving Su Yaya to the hospital. Why was he so anxious? Everyone can just look at the photo evidence for yourselves!”
As soon as Reporter X’s Weibo post was up, Xu Chaoran’s fans were all up in arms. The enthusiasm of their anger could now rival how much they protected Xu Chaoran in the past. Many fans felt like they had been cheated. The two of them have clearly confessed and were dating, so why were they still playing the fellow apprentice act? Are they playing with them on purpose?
Of course, this was only one part of it. There were many fans who thought that Su Yaya was not worthy of Xu Chaoran. In their eyes, Xu Chaoran was everyone’s celebrity darling while Su Yaya was only a small internet star. How could she become Xu Chaoran’s girlfriend? Before this, when everyone thought that the two were only colleagues coming from the same company, that was fine because they had a justifiable relationship. But what if the two of them had already been secretly dating since a long time ago? This was what they couldn’t stand the most. This was their favorite celebrity, he had to find a girlfriend that was fitting for him!
And so, countless fans rushed over to Xu Chaoran and Su Yaya’s Weibos to scold them. Their haters were practically having the time of their lives.

An Yuting had been making lots of noise in Chen Xiuqi’s office since last time. After being kicked out, all the projects she had suddenly disappeared as well. She had only realized the severity of the matter after she had nothing left to do. She hurried to look for her agent, but her agent told her that she was only allowed to bring in other artists for the job right now, and not her.
