Chapter 78: Stuffing Someone into the Variety Show
Huo Chen only found these words laughable.
“Have a child for you to look after? To look after and raise into a second marionette?”
Li Meiqing’s face turned black upon hearing this. “What do you mean? What do you mean by ‘marionette’?!”
Huo Chen sneered.
“What do I mean by marionette? I am the marionette. Controlling me isn’t enough; you want me to produce a child for you to continue controlling?”
Perhaps the closest people are the ones who hurt him the deepest, or perhaps he became like this entirely thanks to these two. In any case, in front of Huo Chengzhang and Li Meiqing, Huo Chen still couldn’t control his emotions very stably.
“You aren’t fit to raise children, and you aren’t fit to be parents.”
“Nonsense!!”
Li Meiqing listened with rage growing. She raised her hand to slap Huo Chen again, but this time, Huo Chen didn’t sit and wait for death.
The man gripped the noblewoman’s wrist, his brow covered in frost.
“Li Meiqing, before, I had no choice. Living in this big mansion, I had no personality, no dignity, no freedom. I could only bow my head to you again and again.”
“But I am no longer the Huo Chen you can manipulate at will.”
He threw off Li Meiqing’s hand.
Under the terrified gazes of the couple, he spoke slowly, “It seems you didn’t take what I said last time to heart. Since that’s the case, let me remind you of a couple of things.”
“Going on that variety show is my last tolerance for you.”
“If you are willing to stop, your glory and wealth will remain. If you feel that controlling me gives you a greater sense of achievement than enjoying pleasure, you can try it.”
Huo Chen walked away without looking back.
It wasn’t until he got into the car that he realized his ruthless manner just now was inexplicably like Lin Huaizhi acting ruthless toward Chu Xiaoran.
He was stunned for a moment.
Then, holding the steering wheel, he chuckled in a low voice.
Inside the old residence, Li Meiqing smashed everything on the table that could be smashed. The beautiful and noble lady looked like a madwoman at this moment.
“What does he mean!!”
“I fed him well and drank him well to raise him this big! If not for that kind of education, could he have a successful career now?!”
“Truly an ungrateful wolf!”
“A white-eyed wolf that can’t be tamed!!”
Li Meiqing screamed at the door. Huo Chengzhang frowned looking at her like this. “Can you have the appearance a wealthy lady should have? Shouting and screaming, what does it look like!”
“You think you count as anything good!” Li Meiqing was in a fit of anger. It was fine if Huo Chengzhang didn’t speak, but as soon as he spoke, he ran right into her line of fire.
“Huo Chengzhang, let me tell you!”
“The son turned out like this, and your problems aren’t small! Besides, he’s so selfish and cold-blooded—didn’t he inherit that all from you!”
The two argued endlessly.
Only this time, the source of their argument didn’t stand up to quell their anger.
“Enough!”
Huo Chengzhang had always considered himself a decent man. Growing up, regarding Huo Chen’s education, it was mostly Li Meiqing charging to the front, and Li Meiqing was the one who carried out punishments.
Most of the time, he hid behind, occasionally offering an idea.
He felt that continuing to argue with Li Meiqing like this was truly undignified, so he proposed an idea: “Huo Chen has a rebellious psychology right now. The more you don’t let him do something, the more he wants to do it. How about this: Mrs. Sun’s daughter—let her participate in that variety show too. Let her go find Huo Chen directly.”
“I don’t believe a beautiful woman can be defeated by that man named Lin!”
Li Meiqing thought for a long time and could only comply. “That’s the only way now. That show already has ten people. To make a pair, one has to be kicked out.”
Huo Chengzhang thought about it and said, “Just kick out that… whoever. The one doing rap. Singing like talking, sounds terrible.”
Poor Zhou Mi. He didn’t even deserve a name before being sentenced to death.
Public opinion fermented quickly.
Coupled with someone adding fuel to the fire, the matter of Zhou Mi being a “rotten cucumber” (promiscuous cheater) who cheated with multiple boats detonated the internet.
The cause was a marketing account breaking the news that someone in the celebrity group of This Is Love clearly had a partner but still went on the show. Not only that, but he also frequently went to clubs to seek thrills and cheated habitually.
So netizens began to guess.
Because Chu Xiaoran was currently in the limelight, many netizens said it was him, claiming he offended capital and was now being retaliated against by having his scandals dug up.
Others guessed Fang Mo.
Saying that those who look innocent are often the sluttiest in private.
Of course, there were also crazy ones saying it was Xu Qiao, claiming she was the biggest star in the group and looked like someone who played very openly, so it must be her.
Against this kind of netizen, Xu Qiao’s fans didn’t say a word and just charged blindly.
And then, there were the sharp-eyed netizens, and a small group who knew the inside story, who started disclosing details directly.
[The bag belongs to Zhou Mi!]
[Before Zhou Mi participated in Rap of Tomorrow, it was rumored online that he had a partner. Paparazzi even took photos of his partner picking him up; she seemed to be a long-haired beauty!]
Fan Fangfang also scrolled past these.
Thinking of what she had heard, she joined the battlefield without hesitation.
[I am a staff member of the romance variety show. I heard Zhou Mi on the phone before. His attitude was so fierce. The person on the other end seemed to be his girlfriend. He scolded her for pretending and refusing to sleep with him!]
[Holy shit! Real or fake!!]
[If it’s really like that, then Zhou Mi is too inhuman!!]
The rhythm was led online for a few hours until the truth was revealed in the evening. The protagonist of that photo was Zhou Mi.
Under this heat, Zhou Mi’s girlfriend also stood up.
[Hello everyone, I am Zhou Qinzhu. I am indeed Zhou Mi’s girlfriend. I only found out about him participating in the variety show after the live broadcast started. He told me participating was to increase his fame and he wouldn’t really date anyone. But during the broadcast, he showed obvious ingratiating behavior toward female guests. In the middle, he called me and scolded me, saying I was pretending by not sleeping with him.
I just find it funny!
This old lady is here to date! Not to open my eyes and get slept by you! Everyday it’s sleep, sleep, sleep. If you like sleeping so much, why not just buy a few inflatable dolls!
Zhou Mi! You make me sick! Dating someone like you is simply my shame!
I hereby officially announce—we are done! You are dumped!!]
The statement posted by the girl on her social account quickly trended. Many netizens came upon hearing the news. Girls all supported her, calling her sober and clear-headed.
During this time, Zhou Mi remained silent.
Mainly because this was a deliberate setup against him, and it was all the truth. Whatever he said would be useless.
Of course, even if he said nothing, it didn’t stop many netizens from checking in under his social account, cursing him as a stud horse.
This matter lasted for more than a week.
Two days later, the final episode of This Is Love officially began filming.
