I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 285 - 279: They Really Are a Perfect Match!
Chapter 285: Chapter 279: They Really Are a Perfect Match!
Hu Yun looked at the gaze Chen Xixi cast her way, and she had a bad feeling about it.
She took out her phone and quickly checked the rankings.
After looking, she breathed a sigh of relief. Still in first place, no problem.
But Qian Yue quickly came over to announce that her and Zheng He’s votes were reset to zero.
Zheng He, not understanding why, looked angry as he questioned the show’s staff, "Why?!"
His first place just got reset to zero? Why?
Qian Yue’s gaze swept across Hu Yun and Zheng He, and he solemnly said, "Your team has been rigging votes, so they don’t count. Any problems with that?"
"Vote rigging?! Who are you accusing? That’s impossible..." Zheng He said in disbelief, but midway, he suddenly turned to Hu Yun standing beside him, frowning he asked, "Was it you who rigged the votes?"
Hu Yun feigned composure and said, "Who rigged the votes, do you have proof? Don’t slander people!"
[Holy shit! What’s going on with this development, I’m a bit lost?]
[Me too, me too, it always feels like I missed a part, how did Han Qianyi and Chen Xixi suddenly become so close, even hugging and kissing Chen Xixi, this is so not like Han Qianyi!]
[Yeah, in the cost-saving variety show Han Qianyi and Chen Xixi were still tearing each other apart, how did they become good friends now?]
[Damn! I haven’t even kissed Chen Xiaokou yet, and Han Qianyi did it! I’m so envious I’m about to deform!!]
[Is Hu Yun the one vote rigging?! OMG! Is this pretty lady being framed because she offended someone?]
[I don’t think Hu Yun is the type to do such a thing, but if you say Zheng He did it, I’ll believe it, could it be a mistake, was it Zheng He who rigged the votes?]
[I also think there might have been a mistake, it must have been Zheng He who did it!]
[Little Zheng: Who did I provoke?]
Qian Yue pulled out his phone and handed the screenshot evidence sent by the show’s team to Hu Yun, "Here’s the evidence, convinced now?"
The screenshots were evidence of Hu Yun’s agent buying votes, which was a definitive proof!
After looking at them, Hu Yun’s face turned dark and sour, but she still attempted a desperate struggle: "These are Photoshopped, definitely the work of Antis!"
Although she didn’t know how these screenshots were leaked, she couldn’t just admit to it.
As for the company... with her stepfather around, even if the company found out something, they would definitely not shelve her for violating company policies.
Qian Yue snorted with laughter, "We’ve already confirmed it with your agent just now, and your agent has personally admitted it."
Hu Yun: "!!!"
Her agent had betrayed her?!
Hu Yun didn’t believe it: "Impossible! You must be bluffing!"
With her stepfather around, her agent wouldn’t dare turn on her unless he didn’t want the job!
Seeing Hu Yun’s refusal to believe until seeing the Yellow River, Qian Yue called a staff member to bring over her personal phone and let Hu Yun confirm for herself, "If you don’t believe it, contact them yourself."
Hu Yun hastily took her phone and dialed her agent’s number, but couldn’t get through no matter what.
After a long while, she came to a realization – it seemed like her agent had blacklisted her!
It’s fine, it’s fine, she still had her stepfather.
Hu Yun comforted herself.
She immediately sent a WeChat message to her stepfather, asking him to check on her agent’s current situation.
After sending the message, she composed herself and pretended to be calm: "My agent seems to be in a meeting, too busy to answer calls. Anyway, you can’t reset my votes now, these screenshots are definitely someone trying to frame me!"
Hu Yun said this while deliberately glancing at Chen Xixi, snickering coldly: "Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s someone here who couldn’t stand seeing me in first place with so many votes."
Such an obvious attempt to sling mud, Chen Xixi would have to be blind not to notice.
Chen Xixi immediately responded: "Are you talking about me?"
Hu Yun with a sarcastic tone, "I didn’t say that."
"Then why are you looking at me?"
"If you’re not guilty, you don’t need to be afraid of my gaze."
Chen Xixi smiled: "Then ask the netizens, who would believe it was me?"
At this moment, the whole internet laughed.
[First, it costs money to hire someone to rig votes, and as everyone knows, Chen Xiaokou doesn’t have the skill to spend money.]
[If Hu Yun had pointed at Han Qianyi or someone else, I might have doubted for a moment, but Chen Xixi? Who doesn’t know how stingy she is?]
[Ah, sis, you’re accusing Chen Xixi of spending money; isn’t that basically exposing yourself?]
[Is it possible that Hu Yun doesn’t know Chen Xixi and thought it was Chen Xixi playing tricks?]
Qian Yue didn’t want to waste time and affect the filming of the show; with his phone in hand, he looked toward Hu Yun, "Since you can’t get through, let me help you call your agent."
Hu Yun was about to stop him when Qian Yue had already dialed the number.
In just a couple of seconds, Hu Yun’s agent’s voice came from the phone’s speaker: "Hello, who’s this?"
Qian Yue: "I’m a staff member of ’Love Battle’. My last name is Qian. I want to confirm if the issue of Hu Yun buying votes is true?"
There was an apologetic tone in Hu Yun’s agent’s voice: "We were wrong about this, and we’re truly sorry for the inconvenience caused to your production team."
Hu Yun immediately became flustered and panicked.
She snatched Qian Yue’s phone, turned off the speaker, and angrily said, "Did you take someone’s money to frame me! You’re supposed to be my agent!"
On the phone, the woman’s voice was calm: "I am your agent, that’s true, but now your fate is in my hands."
Hu Yun’s agent had never spoken to Hu Yun with such a firm tone before, which suddenly gave Hu Yun a bad premonition. She asked, "What do you mean?"
"Your stepfather has fallen from power, don’t even think about using him to pressure me anymore! Also, let me tell you! If you don’t listen to me, you won’t even have a job!"
After the agent finished speaking, she hung up the phone immediately. Leaning back in the chair in her office, she felt incredibly exhilarated! She could finally hold her head high and no longer had to put up with Hu Yun!
Staring at the disconnected call, Hu Yun was dazed for a long time, unable to snap back to reality.
Her stepfather was overthrown?
How was that possible?!
Hu Yun, holding her own mobile phone, walked to a place outside the room without cameras and dialed her stepfather’s number, but no one answered.
She then called her stepfather’s assistant and finally learned the details of what happened from her stepfather’s assistant.
At this moment, Hu Yun’s world had completely collapsed!
Inside the room.
Zheng He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
He had come to boast about his vote count to Chen Xixi just a while ago, and what was the result? Humiliated by Hu Yun!
Damn it!
If he had known, he would’ve just stayed at home quietly!
[I didn’t expect Hu Yun to actually buy votes! I had a pretty good impression of her before, but now it’s instantly gone!]
[These two are truly a match made in hell!]
[At first, I felt that Hu Yun had bad taste to fancy Zheng He, but it seems I was wrong, they are indeed perfectly suited for each other!]
[If you can’t compete, then you buy votes, that’s despicable! People like this should be kicked out of the show, right!]
Taking advantage of the distraction, Zheng He sneaked away; he was too embarrassed, and anyhow, he couldn’t stay in this room any longer!
After informing Hu Yun and Zheng He that their votes were cleared to zero, Qian Yue also turned and left.
The room suddenly was left with only four spectators.
Han Qianyi, while eating watermelon, asked, "Who do you guys think backstabbed Hu Yun?"
Chen Xixi tossed the watermelon rind into the trash can as Zhou Jinyuan handed her another piece of watermelon, which she naturally took and spoke, "With her nasty temper, it’s inevitable that she’d offend people, I guess."
Han Qianyi: "What are you guys doing later for the free date in the afternoon?"
Chen Xixi: "We’re going to freeload food, wanna join?"
Han Qianyi: "Let’s do it!"
Half an hour later.
In a couple’s restaurant that was holding a free event.
The staff handed over four forms: "Please fill out your information to become a member of our restaurant, and then you can participate in the free challenge."
After thanking them, Chen Xixi found an empty table, and the four of them sat down to fill out the memberships.
Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan sat next to each other with Han Qianyi and Wan Chen facing them.
Zhou Jinyuan noticed that Chen Xixi was filling out the form very seriously, and he couldn’t help but glance at what she was writing.
Just as he was about to look away, his gaze suddenly froze.
The phone number column that Chen Xixi filled out seemed somehow familiar...
