Chapter 660: Morning Big Boss Volume (25): It Exploded
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The He family didn’t even know as much about He Chen as compared to the secretary and Yu Xuan.
Father and Mother He wouldn’t understand some of the complex and cla.s.sified matters. He Jinxin pondered for a while before deciding to tell them some of it.
Even though she had only scratched the surface, it still shocked Madam Guan and the uncle’s wife.
There were many cliques in the capital, but the inner circle was still the one everyone wished to be a part of.
After hearing what she said, Madam Guan thought that she was joking and asked, “Xiao… Xiao Chen?”
He Jinxin was the most outstanding of the He family. She had managed to climb to such a high position even though she had no connections. He Chen was capable as well, but she was nowhere near He Jinxin.
That was the reason why Madam Guan asked Guan Chi to go overseas. However, she was told that He Jinxin was saved by He Chen?
Madam Guan was bewildered and utterly confused. Grandma He and He Chen’s aunt and uncle had no reason to lie to her. She zoned out at the end and returned home in a daze after half an hour.
At this time, Guan Chi and his a.s.sistant were holding some doc.u.ments and heading down.
“Guan Chi, give me a moment.” Madam Guan called out to him.
Guan Chi was still holding the doc.u.ments. He turned towards her and said, “Yes.”
“Regarding the matchmaking…” Madam Guan said.
Guan Chi looked at her and smiled. He then rejected her. “It’s alright.”
“About… He Chen…” Madam was still confused by what went on. “Why did you agree to go overseas previously?”
Initially, she thought that Guan Chi would make a huge mess if she asked him to go overseas, but he did it without resistance.
“There was no reason,” Guan Chi replied nonchalantly. “I simply wasn’t qualified. Oh, please stop asking me to go for matchmaking sessions in the future. I don’t want to get married.”
Guan Chi then left after bidding Madam Guan goodbye.
Madam Guan sat on the sofa, still shocked by what had happened today.
…
At the Qu Corporation.
Qu Zixiao was sitting at his desk and holding the doc.u.ment that Ouyang Wei had pa.s.sed him.
Everything written about He Chen on that doc.u.ment was too superficial.
He couldn’t understand why Ouyang Wei couldn’t get more information about He Chen.
As he was deep in thought, someone knocked on the door. The secretary brought Song Qingqing in.
Qu Zixiao immediately kept the doc.u.ments and asked, “Are you done picking the dress for tonight?”
There was a banquet tonight, and Song Qingqing was his date.
She replied, “Yes, I’m done.”
“That’s great,” Qu Zixiao said as he nodded.
They continued their discussion for a while before Song Qingqing left. When she closed the door, Qu Zixiao was still looking at the drawer in a daze.
Song Qingqing pouted and left.
She knew what was in the drawer. It was He Chen’s information.
“Chairman Qu invited you to the banquet. Why aren’t you happy?” Her manager waited for her at the lift. He joked after seeing the unhappy look on her face.
Song Qingqing entered the lift with her manager. When the lift closed, she then spoke. “He was… looking at doc.u.ments about his ex-wife.”
The manager was shocked. “I was under the impression that he never loved his wife. Aren’t they divorced?”
Song Qingqing shook her head tiredly. She had realized that Qu Zixiao wasn’t paying attention to her recently.
He would buy some magazines that only the older generation would read. Song Qingqing also discovered that the magazines would contain some articles about He Chen.
She felt that something was amiss.
Her manager turned serious after what Song Qingqing said. She understood what this meant in this industry. She then replied, “It’s alright, leave it up to me.”
The next day.
There was a trending topic on Weibo.
[Song Qingqing – Mistress]
Song Qingqing was selected as one of the characters in The Realm of G.o.ds, and it led her to become famous. She was even exposed to having a meal with Film Emperor Qin. Hence, this made her even more famous.
This was especially because her image as a school tyrant was well-liked by everyone.
She was a real school tyrant. Her college entrance examination results were better than most in the industry. With the support of a rich person, this helped her get a lot of fans.
This trending topic attracted everyone’s attention.
That topic was started by one of the famous gossip accounts on Weibo—
[The CEO of the Qu Corporation, Qu Zixiao, was secretly married for years. His wife was He Chen from New Media. A photo surfaced recently showing Qu Zixiao entering a hotel with Song Qingqing. They were behaving intimately in the photo…]
A clear photo of Qu Zixiao and Song Qingqing was attached in the post as well.
Song Qingqing was famous nationally. Qu Zixiao was the rising star in the capital who had a ton of money while being extremely handsome, but he never had any affairs.
There were rumors that he was with Song Qingqing before, but it was denied by the media company.
Back then, the netizens were just looking at the saga for fun.
But it was different now. Qu Zixiao was married!
With this photo, didn’t it show that Song Qingqing was a mistress?
Her personal branding was ruined, and everyone was cursing her. The netizens rushed to He Chen to console her.
They then continued to curse Qu Zixiao and Song Qingqing.
At the same time.
In Qu Zixiao’s office, he was trying to contact He Chen.
This news caused a huge stir. The stock price of the Qu Corporation fell. If this matter wasn’t resolved, it wouldn’t be great for either of them.
The first person that came to his mind was He Chen.
However, He Chen wasn’t even aware of what was happening.
She was busy helping out the installation of a new hall of fame in a museum recently.
She picked up the phone and said impatiently, “I’m busy, don’t bother me.”
She immediately hung up.
Qu Zixiao was shocked. He looked at Song Qingqing who came over the moment the news came out and said, “It probably isn’t her…”
“How could it not be her? Who else could it be? Have you seen how her fans grew in number?” Song Qingqing mocked. She shut her eyes and said, “She’s your ex-wife, you handle it.”
She then left before he could reply.
Qu Zixiao leaned back on his chair in silence after she left.
His secretary carefully asked, “Chairman Qu, regarding this…”
Qu Zixiao frowned. It was true that Song Qingqing wouldn’t do this to herself. He immediately fished out their divorce certificate and uploaded a photo of it on his Weibo.
vQuZixiao: [We divorced two months ago. (photo attached)]
The photo was of their divorce certificate.
…
Song Qingqing’s team then tried to steer the conversation away after the post went live.
[They weren’t married. How was Song Qingqing a mistress.]
[I’m just a pa.s.serby, but I would like to voice my opinion. He Cheng and Qu Zixiao’s marriage was a political one. I’ve seen her profile, she’s nothing compared to Song Qingqing. Qu Zixiao was lucky to divorce her and be with Song Qingqing.]
[It must be because she wanted more out of the marriage. She must have done this to get into the industry. Look at the number of followers she gained (photos attached).]
[She must be crazy. Does she think that anyone can just enter the industry like that!?]
[Song Qingqing is such a poor soul. She has been bullied for so long.]
[Qu Zixiao has done something right. This reporter can’t match up to him.]
…
At the same time, a new post surfaced.
[Latest news, their divorce is true. The reporter was seen at the set of “The Realm of G.o.ds” in Continent M a month ago looking for Film Emperor Qin. (photo attached) Film Emperor Qin treated everyone on set to breakfast a couple of times. Everyone knows that Song Qingqing has a sensitive stomach…]
This post caused an uproar.
[d.a.m.n! You are crazy to go after Film Emperor Qin!]
[I knew it, how could someone that Film Emperor Qin approves be a bad person?]
[All the best to Song Qingqing!]
[@NewMediaHeChen No wonder you divorced Qu Zixiao. You were going after Film Emperor Qin all along. You should look at yourself!]
[@NewMediaHeChen How many surgeries have you gone through for that face?]
[I’ll be evacuating Song Qingqing out of this mess. Bye.]
…
“Film Emperor Qin, calm down. I bet Miss He isn’t aware of this. Let me ask the public relations team to clear it up,” Chen Yu said as he saw the cold look on Qin Xiuchen’s face.
You needed to have traffic to be successful. The manager was aware of who stood to gain the most from this.
He even knew what was going between Qin Xiuchen and He Chen. He even asked the Cheng family for help when He Chen’s grandma was sick.
But it shouldn’t be hard to settle this matter. Didn’t one of the netizens say that He Chen wanted to enter the industry?
But the question was: Did she need to?
Qin Xiuchen lit a cigarette and stared quietly at Chen Yu.
He then looked at Weibo and scrolled to Qu Zixiao’s post. He wasn’t sure if he should be angry or happy.
d.a.m.n…
Qin Xiuchen threw his phone onto the desk.
Chen Yu noticed that he had calmed down and left to ask the public relations team for help.
The public relations team of their studio wasn’t used much by Qin Xiuchen. Qin Ran and He Chen used it more.
Qin Xiuchen finished the cigarette and then picked up his phone again.
There was another news.
[Latest news. The truth behind their divorce…]
He tapped onto the tagline. The more he read, the colder the look on his face became.
He could tell that it was because of Song Qingqing’s team.
It was common in the industry. You would have to rely on someone regardless of whether the reports about them were factually true… The netizens wouldn’t know the truth, and it wasn’t the first time someone had wanted to use him to be famous.
He calmed down after he read these.
He then commented calmly.
[d.a.m.n you all to h.e.l.l!]
He then returned to his main page and uploaded two photos. One of them was a chat record with Qin Ran a month ago.
[Sister Chen loves Chinese food, help me to take care of her.]
The second photo was taken at the exhibition. It was a simple shot.
The first place in the exhibition.
Photographer: HE
Qin Ran’s name was saved as “Ran Ran”.
His fans wouldn’t forget who Ran Ran was.
Qin Xiuchen’s profile was swarmed after the post.
His studio’s Weibo was swarmed as well in less than two minutes.
At the public relations office, the manager was trying to take a photo of He Chen’s resume to upload, but his phone suddenly rang.
Chen Yu continued to instruct the team while fis.h.i.+ng out his phone.
He was so shocked that he needed to check what he saw.
The public relations staff saw that he was shocked and asked him what was going on.
Chen Yu looked at him and answered, “The news exploded.”
He must have forgotten what Qin Xiuchen was really like. He was the man capable of breaking into the industry even though Fourth Master Qin tried to stop him. He was a true descendent of the Qin family.
Bai Tiantian, who messed with Qin Ran previously, was still used as an example in the industry.
He must have toned down after finding his niece and nephew. He couldn’t care much about the newer generations using him to become famous nowadays. The media must have forgotten how Qin Xiuchen was really like.
Qin Xiuchen was about to show them that he was still superior.
