Chapter 619: Gu Yuan’s Identity Revealed, the Internet in Uproar
The ratings for the variety show were very good after it aired, and the trending searches on Weibo kept refreshing continuously the next day, with its online views increasing steadily.
This episode of "Desired Ecology" not only became a hit, but also surpassed other concurrent variety shows, becoming the champion with the highest online views in the same period.
With the show’s promotion and various small camera tricks, more and more people became fans of the CP pairing of Gu Yuan and Chi Yu.
While there were many CP fans, many netizens also maintained their sense of reason and raised questions—
[Remember those two days when the official account released the teaser, and people said it was just a publicity stunt? Even if the boss’s wife is someone else, I still think the suspicion of a stunt is high.]
[Such a beautiful ex-girlfriend, I wonder how Chi Yu managed to break up with her so ruthlessly?]
[Who says Chi Yu was the one who initiated the breakup? What if it was the girl who said it? But the interactions between them in the show always had an inadvertent sweetness to them, making it seem like they hadn’t broken up at all. But then I refreshed just now and found out the ex-girlfriend is already married with kids!! It’s just exasperating!]
[Already married with kids and still on the show flirting with an ex, I’m disgusted!]
[I just wanted to say, but was afraid of getting attacked by those inexplicable CP fans, she’s already married and still on the show flirting with an ex, how would her husband and in-laws react if they saw this?!]
[What’s this? This is unfaithfulness!!]
[Looking at the comments section turning strange, I don’t understand why everyone is suddenly so hostile, what’s wrong with being an ex? Can’t exes get along amicably?]
[It’s rare to see exes getting along so peacefully, my ex and I both wished the other would drop dead after breaking up.]
[I’m not so cruel, after breaking up with my ex, I would still occasionally express concern for him, like when it rains heavily, wondering if his coffin would leak...]
The CP fans brought too much heat.
According to the law of the entertainment circle, where fame invites trouble, backlash soon followed.
Many of Chi Yu’s fans joined in with statements accusing the ex-girlfriend of the boss of riding on Chi Yu’s fame.
[Already married with kids and still not content, what, does she want to debut?]
[She’s just average-looking, really not that pretty, netizens are just exaggerating it excessively.]
[I wanted to say, there are plenty of good-looking people in the entertainment industry, isn’t it embarrassing to exaggerate an ordinary person to that level? I’m embarrassed for her!]
[Taking Chi Yu away, stop clinging, if exes can each live well apart, isn’t that better?]
[I’ve figured it out, Chi Yu lost a bunch of fans because of this woman, this woman is Chi Yu’s nemesis, even after breaking up she’s still causing trouble, shameless.]
More and more malicious comments continued to ferment.
Gu Yuan found out she was very popular online only after returning to the country.
As to what extent... It was said that many of Chi Yu’s fans were cursing her, and some passerby fans and gossip-loving netizens, influenced by Chi Yu’s fans, also joined in the chorus of berating Gu Yuan.
After returning to the country, Qiu contacted her immediately: "President Gu, ever since that ecological variety show aired, there’s been a lot of negative comments about you online. The Gu Family’s public relations team is waiting for your instructions."
Gu Yuan had already gotten a general understanding of the situation.
Being attacked by netizens was within Gu Yuan’s expectations.
Initially, she was unwilling for her footage to appear on the big screen because she considered those baseless comments from netizens could have a negative impact on her personal image.
After all, regardless of whether they’re famous entrepreneurs or small-business owners, apart from some necessary interviews, nobody likes their image to appear on those glamorous big screens as subjects of entertainment gossip.
"Then let PR intervene, you follow up on it." If those comments continued to spread rampantly online, it wouldn’t be beneficial for Gu Yuan.
Qiu was just waiting for Gu Yuan’s words: "Okay, President Gu, I’ll assist the PR team to resolve this as soon as possible, ensuring you wake up to the freshest air tomorrow morning."
"Oh right, this afternoon you have a meeting with Junshan Group..."
There’s a meeting, and a dinner in the evening.
Just after hanging up the phone.
She felt a tightness at her waist, a male arm encircling her waist, the broad palm gently caressing her waist and belly, very dry...
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Gu Yuan asked him, so she could let mom prepare it.
Chi Yu rested his chin on her shoulder, his lips almost brushing her neck, affectionately nudging back and forth: "Are you cooking yourself?"
