Chapter 134: Chapter 134: This Kind of Tasteless Hot Search!
He had gone to great lengths to hire a special bodyguard just to prevent his wife from being bullied. How could he possibly set up his own wife at such an important event?
Lu Zhaozhao listened to Xu Zhenzhen’s anxious words before explaining, “My evening gown is absolutely real, but someone wished it was fake and threw a spanner in the works. As for what’s on the internet, it should be cleared up soon.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhenzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Your life really is full of wolves in front and tigers behind. Even attending a welcome banquet can get you dragged down.”
Lu Zhaozhao had barely attended the welcome banquet when she was already set up with a hot search about wearing a fake evening gown.
Following that, other hot searches related to the welcome banquet simultaneously hit the entertainment news.
Although they were all about the content of the welcome banquet, most of them were subtly promoting Song Keren.
Especially under the hot search about Lu Zhaozhao’s fake gown, it almost became a one-woman show for Song Keren.
The ubiquity of controlled comments were saying that she and Lu Zhaozhao wore the same model evening gown, one heaven and one earth apart.
Thinking about the content posted by those accounts, Xu Zhenzhen couldn’t help rolling her eyes.
Anyone with eyes could see that the evening gown Lu Zhaozhao wore was more exquisite. How could they praise blindly like that?
Even if the photos they posted were blurry shots of Lu Zhaozhao, she looked better than Song Keren’s heavily edited photos, wouldn’t even paid posters feel a pang of guilt?
Lu Zhaozhao couldn’t help but tease, “I can’t help it. Who makes me so sparkly and lovable if not jealousy, it’s something I can’t control.”
“This isn’t jealousy; it’s clear some people are up to no good, planning against you from the start. You need to be more careful in the future.” Although Xu Zhenzhen didn’t name names, both understood the situation perfectly.
When Xiao Jinglan initially delivered the evening gown to Lu Zhaozhao, Xu Zhenzhen was also aware, so it went without saying who “some people” referred to.
Lu Zhaozhao repeatedly acknowledged, “Okay, okay, I got it all. Don’t worry.”
She had no interest in suffering the same losses as she did in her past life. This time around, she certainly needed to be more cautious.
“By the way, Zhaozhao darling, there’s something else I almost forgot,” Xu Zhenzhen spoke and sent a few pictures to Lu Zhaozhao before continuing, “The school forum has a new post about electing the campus belle and beau, released by the student union. It’s said to be for shooting this year’s university promotional video and guess what, you’re on the list~”
“Uh…”
Lu Zhaozhao looked at the images on her phone and couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of her mouth. Why was she being dragged into this kind of thing?
But with so many handsome men and beautiful women at the university, one more or less wouldn’t make a difference. As long as no one campaigned for her, her ranking wouldn’t climb.
That shouldn’t be a problem.
Lu Zhaozhao briefly chatted with Xu Zhenzhen and then hung up the phone, returning to the banquet hall.
To her surprise, Song Sinian was nowhere to be seen.
“Madam,” Zhao Xi saw Lu Zhaozhao seemed to be looking for someone and quickly stepped forward, “Mr. Song is dealing with some tricky matters, but if madam needs anything, please instruct me.”
Lu Zhaozhao was slightly startled, “Um… isn’t it a bit improper for Mr. Song to be so busy and leave you here?”
Zhao Xi awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth, “The matter Mr. Song is handling is not really something I can intervene in.”
“???”
Lu Zhaozhao clearly didn’t quite understand, but since Zhao Xi said he couldn’t get involved, it would be better not to interfere with Song Sinian’s business.
What she didn’t know was that Song Sinian had left because of the Xia Family…
In the quiet room, a deep voice suddenly emanated from the phone.
“All right, can we talk about it now? What exactly is going on with Zhaozhao’s hot search?” The impatience was evident in Xia Wenjue’s voice on the other end of the line.
The Song Family supposedly just hosted a welcome banquet, so how did Lu Zhaozhao end up on the hot search?
And it was this kind of tasteless trending search!
Song Sinian’s dark eyes blinked softly as he slowly said, “Someone intentionally schemed against Zhaozhao, hoping to have her attend the welcome party in a fake gown. However, the issue has been resolved. The evening dress she wore was genuine, and we had people arranged in advance for the trending searches. The public opinion will soon shift.”
Xia Wenjue was clearly dissatisfied with Song Sinian’s explanation, “Since you knew someone intentionally schemed against Zhaozhao, why didn’t you prevent such trending searches beforehand?”
With Song Sinian’s capabilities, he didn’t believe that it couldn’t have been done.
Song Sinian’s gaze rested quietly on his phone screen, still without a flicker of emotion.
He replied indifferently, “Because Zhaozhao wanted it this way.”
“She wanted it this way?” Xia Wenjue was stunned on the spot.
Did this mean that Lu Zhaozhao had instructed Song Sinian to do this?
Xia Wenjue fell silent all of a sudden, his dark eyes narrowing as he meticulously replayed the events.
Upon learning that Lu Zhaozhao was blacklisted on the trending searches, he exploded in anger.
In Song Sinian’s territory, under his own watch, how could Lu Zhaozhao be bullied by someone else?
So, in a burst of anger, he had called to confront Song Sinian.
Thinking about it now, he admitted he had been a bit impulsive.
Seeing Xia Wenjue calm down, Song Sinian’s eyes lifted slightly, “Do you want to take revenge for Zhaozhao?”
His voice remained indifferent, betraying no emotion.
But his words successfully captured Xia Wenjue’s attention, “What do you want me to do?”
Had Song Sinian not said those words, Xia Wenjue almost forgot they were on the same side.
Those who targeted Lu Zhaozhao would naturally not escape Song Sinian’s grip. This man was known for his ruthlessness and severity towards outsiders, so… he was more than willing to help!
“It’s simple, fight fire with fire,” Song Sinian said with an unchanged expression, his tone indifferent, “Though, I find actual fans, with their personal emotions, more suitable than paid trolls.”
Xia Wenjue almost instantly understood Song Sinian’s intent.
Lu Zhaozhao had recently become quite popular online because of Xia Wenyan, gaining a number of fans who were enamored with this beautiful and talented younger sister.
However, since Lu Zhaozhao was not in the industry and had no intentions of being promoted, her fanbase was quite scattered.
Xia Wenyan was different.
His participation in an idol-development variety show had gained momentum, with a large and active fanbase.
Leaving this matter in Xia Wenyan’s hands was definitely all gain and no loss.
But… the other party was almost legally Song Sinian’s sister…
Xia Wenjue hesitated slightly, “Song Keren is from your Song Family, are you really planning to be this ruthless?”
Song Sinian glanced at Xia Wenjue, his voice cold, “She merely shares the Song surname, she has nothing to do with me or the Song Family.”
“…”
Man, could it really be said that it’s so typical of Song Sinian?
Absolutely the ruthless tycoon of the business world that’s notorious for not acknowledging kin.
“Alright then, since you’ve put it that way…” Xia Wenjue’s mouth curled into a sinister smile, “I won’t hold back!”
What do you think?
