When the three of them were almost done with lunch, five or six others sat down at the table behind them. They seed to be from the lighting team.
One of them started talking not too long after they sat down.
"After my long wait, Screenwriter Zhuo is finally returning."
"Oh? The beauty screenwriter is returning to the team?"
"Didn't rumor has it that she was nominated for so sort of award from one of her previous scripts? How co she's returning?"
"Pfft. That's the spirit of Master ngzhi. She isn't even interested in an award normination."
"No wonder she retired from the circle at her most popular ti. She didn't even care about fa. She is so different from the rest of us, eh?"
"… …"
With the few bantering, a voice cut in with a different tone. "Oh, knock it out already."
"? Who's talking now?"
"What? Do you not agree that ngzhi was fad?"
"She is talented. Don't be so bitter."
The person pursed their lips. "Nevermind whether Zhuo Yixuan is really ngzhi. Let's just talk about ngzhi. She did not withdraw from the entertainnt circle because she didn't care about fa, alright?"
"Hmm?"
"What are you talking about?"
The few individuals were annoyed just a mont ago but, now that there were gossips, they attention was imdiately grabbed.
"Ahem, I heard that from a friend who studied at X University." That person cleared their throat. "You've heard of X University, right? Many of the renowned director, screenwriter, actors graduated from that school. My friend told that ngzhi was a sophomore at their university."
"Oh, boy. Shrewd. ngzhi attended X University? That's certain a prestigious school as far as people in this field are concerned."
"Then what? Then what?"
"Then she beca fad, right? The kind that beca fad overnight. The students at X University only knew that that was an alias of one of their fellow students, but they didn't know specifically who it was. Do you know how many companies wanted to sign her back then? You'd think she had a bright future in front of her. It was too bad that…"
"Too bad what?"
"Stop with the teasing already. Spill."
The person grunted and said in a despicable tone. "Too bad that it was exposed that she was sleeping around with so upper managent at the dia company. His fiancée found out about it and went and made a scene at the school."
"?? What? For realz?"
"Are you sure about that?"
"No way. I have never heard of any of this!"
"Of course X University would have suppressed the news. A student at their prominent university was a third person in a relationship and so high profile at that. Can you imagine? Of course they would do whatever within their power to keep it on the downlow."
"What happened next then?"
"Was that the reason why ngzhi retired from the circle?"
"Probably. Imagine the kind of power and background behind the fiancée of an upper managent of a dia company. ngzhi might be popular, but she was still a student with no resources or connections. That all they talked about at X University during that period of ti. Many had tried to identify her but she dropped out of school before that happened."
"ngzhi was a howrecker? Her image of being a goddess in my mind was completely ruined."
"And here I felt so sad that she had retired from the circle. I guess she got what she deserved. All ho wreckers deserve to die horrible deaths."
"Wait a minute. You all just take his words for it? Who knows what was the truth in situations like this? You shouldn't just waver back and forth."
"Are you seriously defending a ho wrecker? Why would my friend want to defa her? What would he get out of it?"
"… …"
The discussion beca more and more aggressive at the table next to them and the little assistant turned back around, shocked. "Did you hear that, Brother Luo? They said your loyal fan is a ho…"
"No, I didn't hear anyway." Luo Xiu cut him off.
"Huh? But…"
Luo Xiu looked up and his voice was almost cold. "I don't find it interesting to talk about others' businesses with no proof whatsoever. If that's what you enjoy, that is fine by , but don't talk to about it."
Sitting across from him, the girl's brows furrowed deeply and she seed to be in deep thought in great discomfort.
"Miss Gu, do you not feel well?"
"Hmm?" Gu Nian looked up and, after she recalled Luo Xiu's question in her head, shook her head and said, "No, it's just that what they said reminded of…"
Luo Xiu frowned slightly, "Miss Gu enjoys this kind of gossip as well?"
Gu Nian followed up on what he was saying matter-of-factly, "Reminded that I still haven't figured out what to get you for your birthday."
Luo Xiu, "… …"
Luo Xiu, "?"
Exactly how did she go from one to the other?
