A We-media person was squatting outside the private cinema. He originally came to wait for cheating celebrities, but unexpectedly, he encountered Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong instead!
This was big news!
The We-media person was overjoyed and posted videos of Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong entering and leaving the private cinema on their social account.
The title was very sensational: Is there hope for a billionaire couple to get back together? Couple Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong alone in a double bed private room for 2 hours!
The picture was also accompanied by a sample of the private room that they booked: it did have a large bed.
However, the large bed in the couples’ room of the private movie theatre seemed to be a common practice, and there was nothing special about it.
Xin Qianyu had a feeling of innocence when he saw the title: Did the movie last for two hours? Then, of course, they were in the private room for two hours, right?
Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong were rumoured to be divorcing, but now they were photographed going to a couple’s private room to watch a movie together. This made people curious and confused: Were they getting back together?
Amid such rumours, netizens were even more surprised: Su Zhong has such a big heart! How could he wear such a big green hat?
Some loyal fans felt sorry for him: Such a handsome guy. It’s a pity that he’s blind!
After seeing the news, the old man was shocked and immediately called to ask about it.
But Su Zhong did not reply to him or comply.
Only then did the old man realise he had been tricked. Su Zhong had no intention of helping him. Su Zhong was putting on a show with Xin Qianyu!
After realizing that he had been fooled, the old man was very angry.
The secretary said from beside him, “I didn’t expect that Su Zhong, who seems loyal and upright, would be so cunning.”
“That’s fine. All businessmen are dishonest.” The old man waved his hand. “But I’m shocked that he can tolerate being cheated on!”
The secretary knew the inside story and said, “But the green hat statement is just a rumour and not true.”
“So what?” The old man tilted his head. “Men value reputation the most. If the whole world thinks you are being cheated on, it is no different than you being cheated on.”
Thinking of this, the old man knocked on the solid wood table. “Go and add more fuel to the fire. I don’t believe that their love is stronger than gold.”
The secretary nodded.
The old man said, “Do it cleanly and don’t leave any clues.”
The secretary smiled and said, “This is all done by Uncle. It has nothing to do with us anyway.”
The old man nodded with a satisfied smile on his face.
Even though Xin Qianyu’s public relations team made every effort to clarify and sue the rumour mongers, the news that “Xin Qianyu called on ducks” was still widely circulated. Moreover, the public was more willing to believe in sexy and provocative rumours than to refute them based on facts.
Therefore, when the news came out that Su Zhong and Xin Qianyu were getting back together, the public’s first reaction was to spurn Xin Qianyu and feel that it was not worth it for Su Zhong. Some even laughed at Su Zhong and gave Su Zhong edited pictures of green hats and emoticons with “Of course, I choose to forgive him.jpg”. It was quite lively for a while.
Xin Qianyu was quite used to his own scandals. However, what made him angrier was the maliciousness of netizens towards Su Zhong.
But Su Zhong was calm.
Xin Qianyu could not help but ask him, “Are you really not affected? How do you do it?”
After asking, Xin Qianyu felt a little regretful, thinking that Su Zhong would say something sappy like “I believe in you”, “Because you are the only one in my heart”, and “I don’t care about rumours”.
Unexpectedly, Su Zhong said, “I uninstalled Weibo.”

But Xin Qianyu could not swallow this anger. “It doesn’t matter if they talk about me, but what’s the point of talking about my man? I must make this person pay the price!”
Xin Qianyu had already gone through public relations and found that someone was behind it and adding fuel to the fire. As a result, he could not suppress the public opinion for the moment.
Xin Qianyu decided not to play the game of deleting posts or using a water army. He offered a reward of 10 million yuan in the media circle, just to find the person who lit the fire.
As the saying goes, with every handsome reward, there would be a brave man. Since enough money had been given, the morality of the world would not be spoken of. The media circle was not very big. If they were linked together one by one, the source would be found. In the end, Xin Qianyu found out about the shady publicist who spread the rumours in the first place.
The boss of the shady publicist knew that he could not offend Xin Qianyu, so he wept bitter tears and apologized. “Master Xin, I was wrong! I didn’t mean it! I was also paid to do things!”
Xin Qianyu sneered. “Who was it? Tell me and I’ll spare your life.”
The shady publicist’s eyes flashed. “Really?”
“Of course,” Xin Qianyu said. “I, Master Xin, will keep my word. Look, I said I had a reward of 10 million. Didn’t I give it out? It seems like your good friend sold you out.”
Speaking of this, the shady publicist turned pale. It was indeed his good friend who betrayed him for ten million.
Xin Qianyu patted him on the shoulder and said, “Your friendship is very valuable. Don’t be sad.”
The shady publicist felt there was no trust in the world, so he spat out the answer. “It’s your uncle…”
“Is it him?” Xin Qianyu raised an eyebrow. “Tell me the details.”
The shady publicist confessed everything, saying that Uncle Xin found the shady publicist and asked him to go to the club to stake him out, take photos, make up random stories, and create public opinion…
After the shady publicist confessed, Xin Qianyu posted the recording of it online.
In line with the momentum of the water army, #Xin Qianyu was framed by his uncle for calling on ducks# soon topped the list of hot topics.
To suppress an interesting story, an even more interesting story was needed.
The story “Xin Qianyu called on ducks” was so fun that the public was more willing to spread and discuss the former than “Xin Qianyu didn’t call on ducks”.
But now, it was different. Xin Qianyu gave a more interesting story, which was that Xin Qianyu was framed by his uncle. The reason was that the Xin family was fighting for the family property. Xin Qianyu was innocently victimised and kicked out of the board of directors. Such stories were fascinating, easy to spread and discuss, and everyone talked about them.
Uncle Xin was so frightened that he went to the old man for help. “Dad, I was just listening to you…”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” The old man said sternly. “You caused the trouble yourself, and you plan to involve me?”
Uncle Xin was speechless.
Uncle Xin had created the rumours to smear Xin Qianyu at the order of the old man through his secretary. Even if Uncle Xin wanted to tell people that this was what the old man wanted, he had no evidence. However, the shady publicist had chat records, phone records and transfer records proving that Uncle Xin was the “culprit behind the scene”.
This time, Uncle Xin was struggling to withhold his bitterness.
He looked at the old man in a panic. “Dad, I’m your son. You can’t just watch me die without saving me…”
The old man did not do that and had people delete the post to suppress public opinion.
But this time they felt Xin Qianyu’s seriousness.
The more they deleted, the more Xin Qianyu asked for it to be posted. Moreover, the act of deleting a post could easily trigger a backlash from netizens. The more something was deleted, the more true it seemed to netizens, and the more netizens had something to say about it.
As a last resort, Uncle Xin sent a lawyer’s letter warning everyone not to spread rumours.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Uncle Xin sent a lawyer’s letter, Xin Qianyu sued Uncle Xin.
The number one hot topic was: “Xin Qianyu sued his uncle for spreading rumours and defamation, claiming compensation of 50 million yuan.”
This time, there was a frenzy and everyone was inclined to believe that Xin Qianyu was the victim.
In passing, netizens exclaimed that Su Zhong was a really good husband. He maintained trust despite rumours and never left his partner.
Just when the public controversy reached its climax, Old Man Xin once again invited Xin Qianyu to his old house.
Xin Qianyu happily agreed.
When they arrived at the old house, Old Man Xin and Uncle Xin had already been waiting in the study for a long time.
Xin Qianyu said with a smile, “Why? Uncle can’t wait to meet in court, and now you plan to meet in advance?”
In his heart, Uncle Xin was furious with him, but he did not dare to say it. He just stared and said, “At any rate, I’m your elder!”
“Since you are an elder, you must behave like an elder. Otherwise, it will be ‘disrespecting the elderly and leading the future generation astray’.” Xin Qianyu seemed to be mocking Uncle Xin, but his eyes fell on the old man.
The old man choked for a moment and then said, “The most important thing for a family is to be harmonious. If there’s anything wrong, we can discuss it clearly behind closed doors. What does it look like for us to go to court? Wouldn’t we be laughed at by outsiders?”
Xin Qianyu smiled and said, “That’s true. My request is very simple. I want Uncle Xin to apologize in public and pay 50 million yuan in compensation. If he can readily agree, I don’t want to go to court either.”
“Fifty million…!” Uncle Xin was shocked. “You might as well go and commit a robbery!”
“Well, it seems we can’t reach an agreement,” Xin Qianyu sneered. “Forget it. I’ll see you in court.”
“Xiaoyu, you understand, even if it goes to court, the judge will not be able to order him to pay you 50 million yuan,” The old man said in a deep voice. “If you do such a thing in a moment of anger, isn’t it not worth the gain?”
Xin Qianyu blinked and said, “I think it’s worth it. After enduring for a while, there is calm but the more I think about taking a step back, the angrier I get. I don’t want to step back.”
The old man’s face turned blue. “It seems like you’re planning to completely fall out with the Xin family. Have you thought about the consequences? You’ll never get a penny from me in the future!”
This statement was quite serious. It was also the most powerful weapon the old man could think of.
However, the weapon hit Xin Qianyu with little pain or itching.
Xin Qianyu smiled and said, “You have kicked me out of the trust. What money could I get?” After saying that, Xin Qianyu blinked again. “You’re talking about inheritance, right?”
The old man’s face darkened.
Xin Qianyu said, “The old man is still so tough. I’m not like my uncle who thinks about the division of inheritance every day. How ominous.”
Uncle Xin’s eyes widened. “What did you say?! Don’t, don’t talk nonsense!”
“Okay, since you’re not sincere, I won’t say anything anymore.” Xin Qianyu waved his hand. “See you in court.”
After saying that, Xin Qianyu turned around and left.
Looking at Xin Qianyu’s leaving figure, Uncle Xin was very anxious. He looked at his father for help and said, “Dad, you said…”
“Let him go!” The old man banged his cane. “Isn’t he just going to sue you? Let him go! Who can’t afford a lawyer?”
Uncle Xin hastily complied. But he was still very nervous. After all, this was his first time in court.
Judging from Xin Qianyu’s posture, he was quite serious.
If Xin Qianyu sued him, would the old man help him?
Thinking of this, Uncle Xin broke out in sweat.
When Xin Qianyu slowly walked out of the old house, he was stopped by a person.
This person was Xin Simu.
Xin Simu looked as calm as water and went straight to the point. “You and I both know that my dad is not the culprit. He was just used.”
“Really? I didn’t know.” Xin Qianyu looked innocent.
Xin Simu swallowed and said, “How could you not know?”
Xin Qianyu smiled: “Give me the evidence, then we can talk about it.”
“Do you mean……”
“Xiao Mu Jie, you have been with the old man for so many years, and you are a meticulous and sophisticated person. I believe you’ll find a way.” Xin Qianyu waved his hand. “I’m leaving first, bye.”
Uncaring about his relatives, Xin Qianyu walked toward the car parked on the side of the road.
However, when looking back at the old house, Xin Qianyu felt emotional.
The car door opened. Su Zhong was in the driver’s seat and asked Xin Qianyu to get in the car.
Xin Qianyu got into the passenger seat and said calmly, “I feel like I’m becoming more and more ruthless.”
“No,” Su Zhong said. “You’re getting cuter and cuter.”
Xin Qianyu’s face heated up and he looked away. Thinking of the time when he tried so hard to hide his true self and pretended to be submissive, it felt like a world away.
While Xin Qianyu was in a daze, Su Zhong had already started the car.
Xin Qianyu asked, “Where are we going?”
Su Zhong replied, “On a date.”
Su Zhong drove Xin Qianyu to the entrance of the amusement park.
Xin Qianyu looked at it from a distance and knew that Su Zhong had reserved the venue.
It was the closing time of the amusement park. Generally speaking, it was more cost-effective to book the venue during this time.
Two people could finish playing within two hours if they rented the venue, and there was no need to spend more time (unless there was a large-scale event to be held, such as the time when Su Zhong’s company reserved Disneyland for an annual team-building meeting). Because it costs tens of millions to book it for a whole day, but only costs a few hundred thousand to book a room for two hours during its free time or closed period. Therefore, it was cost-effective to book two hours during its free time.
Therefore, many Hollywood stars or Middle Eastern tycoons also choose this method, spending a few hundred thousand to book a two-hour entertainment experience.
Of course, some really rich people would take on full-day rentals, such as a Saudi prince who spent 120 million to rent out Disneyland Paris for two days in 2013.
However, this was too luxurious for “nobility” like Xin Qianyu. If Su Zhong did that, Xin Qianyu would feel he was mentally ill. It was just an amusement park, and spending a few hundred thousand to enjoy it was fine. Any more would not be worth it.
For a wedding at Disney, with the most basic package, the price per table was around 300,000 for a table of ten to twenty.
Hey…wait a minute, what did I just say?
Wedding?
Arriving at the entrance of the amusement park, Xin Qianyu suddenly thought of something and said nonchalantly, “You’re not going to propose here, are you?”
Poor Su Zhong can’t just propose in peace without Xin Qianyu seeing right trough him and ruining his plans.
Thank you for the chapter!
He’s asking this question at every date, at this point. Su Zhong should just propose unromanticaly not during a date at this pont –‘
