Chapter 186: Chapter 186 Breakup Request

Zhang Dayou frowned, "What about Li Li’s family background?"

Luo You didn’t want to say much and said, "There’s no need to worry about that. Just do whatever is best for Jinxia. Wu Daxi and Li Li haven’t broken up yet, and Jinxia has no feelings for Wu Daxi at all. They’re not even friends."

Zhang Dayou didn’t know why Luo You suddenly stopped worrying about Li Li’s family background. Perhaps he had some information that Zhang himself was unaware of. This thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly suppressed it, as dealing with He Jinxia was the urgent matter at hand.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Dayou contacted the Water Army to start managing the comments and even temporarily logged into Cheng Xiaohua’s account to soothe the fans and control public opinion in the fan groups.

Ten minutes later, He Jinxia posted a message on W:

[Still single, really enjoying the freedom and independence of being unattached. Wishing all lovers in the world will end up together.]

This message was a counterattack aimed at the blogger!

And the last sentence had particularly deep implications.

At the same time, W and various other platforms’ marketing accounts started to reveal the romance between Li Li and Wu Daxi. They had been intimately close since filming, with photos even surfacing of them passionately kissing in a car!

Moreover, after filming completed, Li Li disguised herself and visited Wu Daxi’s residential complex several times. Because of this, everyone started to investigate the schedules and notices of Li Li and Wu Daxi, and found that each month they would coincidentally be in the same place for several days.

Especially Li Li, who would grab Wu Daxi for a photo together every time they bumped into each other. There were three such photos on W in the past three months, silently confirming the speculation that their meetings were not coincidental but intentional dates.

He Jinxia’s fans were the first to dive in, commenting under the W marketing account that posted the news:

[Whether the Fat Emperor and Wu Daxi are dating, I have no idea, but Wu Daxi and Li Li are definitely in a relationship. Taking Jinxia without making arrangements, who knows if the crew member’s revelations are accurate?

Maybe Li Li wanted to publicize the relationship herself to hype it up? On one hand revealing the relationship, and on the other hand drawing attention to the movie. If I were Director Dong, I’d be tempted to crown you [shrug]]

[I don’t accept explosive news based on arbitrary speculation! If the Fat Emperor really was with Wu Daxi, then show us their intimate photos [nose-pick]. Seeing how Li Li would stick to Wu Daxi every other day, I don’t believe they didn’t date during the filming. Then, after filming, they were supposedly able to start dating [dog head].]

[Exactly right, the Fat Emperor is totally a beauty when slimmed down. Would Li Li not notice such a gorgeous face and stunning beauty dating Wu Daxi? Who would believe she’d be eager to be the third wheel? Wu Daxi is no big shot, and the Fat Emperor doesn’t need to hype up anything by tying herself to someone else for fame [nose-pick].]

[Stealing a lover, being a homewrecker? That’s just hilarious! No photos, no talk of being together—except it’s true that Li Li and Wu Daxi are.]

A huge wave of Timekeeper fans rushed in nonstop, occupying the marketing account. Wu Daxi’s fans were also very displeased—they didn’t like Li Li, didn’t like the Fat Emperor, didn’t like any female star who coveted Wu Daxi!

They didn’t go to leave messages under the marketing account but went to the personal homepages of Wu Daxi and Li Li.

[Brother Daxi is ours, what right does Li Li have to date him? If Brother Daxi chooses you, he must be blind, blind [angry][angry]!]

[Honestly, Li Li’s not much to look at. If Brother Daxi is really going to date someone, at least find someone who matches up. I think the Fat Emperor is not bad, it’s just a pity she clarified so quickly and even wished you lovebirds a happy ending [resigned][dog head].]

[Brother Daxi belongs to us, you’re not worthy of him, give him back to us, wuwu, please break up, hurry and break up!]

[Begging for a breakup ＋1!]

[Begging for a breakup ＋10086!!]

As Luo You used He Jinxia’s Weibo account to timely clarify the situation, and the marketing accounts hesitated to release the intimate photos between He Jinxia and Wu Daxi, the public, bombarded by the marketing accounts with intimate photos of Li Li and Wu Daxi, gradually returned to their senses, misled thoughts corrected.

Without evidence, they no longer believed what the so-called informants said, and it was possible that Li Li’s tearful exit from the magazine office was due to a quarrel with Wu Daxi.

Truthfully, the entire crew was busy taking photos inside the magazine office for work, who would have the leisure to enact an adultery scene?

Once the magazine office released their surveillance footage from the work period, the distorted facts would naturally collapse under their own weight.

Not only that, as the intimate photos of Li Li and Wu Daxi rapidly spread, a term soared to the top of the hot search list, sitting very stable on its throne; the term was—

[Desperate for a breakup!!]

Clicking on the term, it was full of comments from Wu Daxi’s fans, with some marketing accounts quickly following the trend and rhythmically crafting articles.

Though no one paid them for a press release, a hot topic like this was too good to miss for the marketing accounts to fervently assert their presence — it would have been too loss-making not to.

[Why does everyone look down on the pairing of Wu Daxi and Li Li? The reason is this!]

[He Jinxia wishes Li Li and Wu Daxi lovers who will eventually become spouses, are Li Li and Wu Daxi currently facing a setback in their relationship?]

[Explosive! Li Li is the daughter of a billionaire, the pearl of the family, a bona fide beauty with wealth, Wu Daxi clinging onto Li Li’s coattails, a net worth of millions is not a dream; thereby reaching the pinnacle of life!]

...

A casual refresh on Weibo, and one out of every ten posts were news about Wu Daxi and Li Li, with sensational headlines capturing the public’s attention.

Luo You left the company to join Zhang Dayou, monitoring the data together, hiring the Water Army to control public opinion, helping He Jinxia break free from the mire surrounding Wu Daxi and Li Li.

In truth, Luo You didn’t do much to stir the pot; besides initially buying some marketing accounts to leak the intimate photos of Li Li and Wu Daxi, he mostly stepped back and became a bystander.

Public opinion had its own patterns; whichever topic was hotter, whichever seemed more authentic, the media would gravitate towards that side to release news.

One could say that the situation as it now stood was something Zhang Dayou and Luo You could already foresee when the marketing accounts leaked the intimate photos of the pair.

Seeing the spotlight firmly on Wu Daxi and Li Li, Zhang Dayou finally breathed a sigh of relief, let his body fully recline against the back of the chair, and stretched extensively, loosening his muscles.

It was at this moment that he had the leisure to turn to Luo You and ask, "Why dare leak the information about Li Li’s family background?"

Raising an eyebrow, Luo You responded, "The leak about Li Li’s family background wasn’t my doing."

Zhang Dayou asserted, "If no one had done it, you would’ve exposed her eventually!"

With a serious expression, he said, "Jinxia’s career has just begun; it’s not suitable for her to clash with a star from a family with a profound background. When you called me earlier to have her intimate photos leaked, I knew Li Li’s family background couldn’t be concealed.

Tell me, what new discoveries do you have on your end that can pit Jinxia against Li Li?"
