Chapter 2612 - A Thunderstorm Out of Nowhere

On Monday night, a renowned paparazzo, by the name of Zhuo Ke, posted something shocking on Weibo.

Zhuo Ke, a writer at Fengxing Studio who was hailed as the top paparazzo in the entertainment industry with tens of millions of followers on Weibo, specialized in writing scandalous exposés regarding the inner workings of showbiz.

Stalking celebrities for a scoop was his usual modus operandi. Upon obtaining several proofs of some tidbits, he would email photos to the involved celebrity and openly state his price for the deletion of them. If the celebrity was willing to pay, he would delete them, but if they were reluctant to fork out money, he would expose that scandal; the recent exposé of a certain starlet’s nude photos was his doing.

Of course, not all scandals could be bought off with money. After all, he needed fame and, in particular, gossip to prove his high reputation as a paparazzo.

That evening, he posted a piece of doggerel on Weibo, which went:

[The oath of eternal love is broken,

A happy union ends in a dream.

The poetic Mount Nan is high above the clouds,

Leaving behind a crushed face.]

Toward the end of his post, he even lamented. [Sometimes, things are not as beautiful as what their pure exterior suggests. What lies beneath their charming appearance may be foul and ugly.]

That was his usual style of doing things; he would publish a piece of doggerel as a preview of what was to come, which had the protagonist’s name hidden in his writing as a small form of protest. As for who exactly it was, netizens would have to rack their brains and figure it out themselves.

It did not take long for the shrewd netizens to guess who it was, though.

Yun Shishi!

That was a subtle reference to the actress, was it not?

The moment the post was published, it sent shockwaves across the Internet.

Many netizens surmised that the famous paparazzo had gotten his hands on some scandalous gossip again. Some even joked around. [Did Zhuo Ke discover something earth-shattering again? Yun Shishi has been really popular lately; looks like he’s out to destroy her!]

[Don’t tell me he’s going to expose some sort of a scandal of hers? I like her acting in ‘The Green Apple’; it’s marvelous! Here I thought she’s the only starlet in showbiz whose background is clean.]

[She’s indeed rather suspicious. She debuted with so many golden resources and has received so many good scripts. Somehow, I got this feeling that she’s no simple woman despite what her ethereal appearance suggests. I bet that she’s a scheming and manipulative woman in private.]

For a while, there were a lot of discussions and speculations about the actress with everyone having their view. There were people who stood on her side, while others believed that she was exactly how the paparazzo described her, which was the opposite of her pure appearance, and might have even engaged in all sorts of debauchery, just like some other wanton celebrities.

Everyone was very interested in seeing how things would play out, so they were looking forward to Friday’s arrival to find out more!

…

Qin Zhou’s office.

The ace manager slammed a folder on his desk in anger.

“That b*st*rd’s got some nerve! He’s keeping a lid on whatever he has until Friday.”

Meanwhile, Yun Shishi was frowning in perplexity throughout her manager’s outburst as she sat at the side.

As the core figure of the matter, she was, in fact, skeptical of whether that piece of doggerel was referring to her or not.

I haven’t done anything wrong, have I?

What exactly is that notorious paparazzo up to this time?
