After confirming that Xiaxia was alright, Chu Xunxiang went back to doing her own thing.

At this moment, Du Yushu, who plays the male lead, walked towards her.

Du Yushu went abroad years ago and has been developing his career there. He only recently returned because of Cheng Suyi's invitation, so Chu Xunxiang is not very familiar with him.

"Brother Du,"

Chu Xunxiang politely asked, "Is there something you need?"

"fine,"

Du Yushu shook his head. He looked at Shi Xiaxia, who was with Qiao Zihao, and asked curiously, "I just came to ask you what happened earlier."

He had only been back in China for a few days and was so busy that he had no time to pay attention to gossip news online.

Seeing the excited gleam in Du Yushu's eyes, Chu Xunxiang couldn't help but smile. She hadn't expected that the aloof Du Yushu was also a gossipy person.

Chu Xunxiang briefly explained the grudges between Shi Xiaxia and the Shen family, and also mentioned the kindness Shi Xiaxia had shown her.

However, Chu Xunxiang couldn't tell anyone about the child. She only said that she had met a fortune teller and that Shi Xiaxia had helped her resolve the issue.

After listening, Du Yushu pondered for a moment and said, "According to what you've said, this Shen family... is really strange! They don't even want their own daughter anymore!"

"Who says it isn't?"

Chu Xunxiang looked at Shi Xiaxia and felt sorry for her.

Shi Xiaxia had already suffered enough. She finally found her biological parents, but her mother only loved Shen Qingqing and treated her, her own daughter, like an enemy.

"Shi Xiaxia is quite remarkable!"

Du Yushu's tone was filled with admiration as he stared intently at Shi Xiaxia: "To be able to thrive in this situation and even deal with the Shen family! I truly admire you!"

Perhaps it was Du Yushu's intense gaze that caught the attention of Qiao Zihao, whose heart was entirely devoted to Shi Xiaxia.

He turned around and saw Du Yushu's burning gaze. His expression immediately became wary, and he took two steps forward to block his view.

Du Yushu was immediately stunned, not understanding the situation for a moment.

Noticing their expressions, Chu Xunxiang quickly smiled and whispered to Du Yushu, "That's Qiao Zihao, the younger brother of CEO Mu Yun. He... likes Xia Xia..."

No wonder you look at me like that.

Du Yushu waved to Qiao Zihao dismissively, then continued gossiping with Chu Xunxiang, "Are they already together?"

"Uh..." Chu Xunxiang didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Unrequited love!" Du Yushu made his judgment immediately upon seeing Chu Xunxiang's troubled expression.

"I guess so..." Chu Xunxiang said awkwardly.

However, despite saying that, judging from the interactions between Shi Xiaxia and Qiao Zihao, she didn't think that Shi Xiaxia really had no feelings for Qiao Zihao at all.

She just couldn't understand why Shi Xiaxia wasn't with Qiao Zihao.

As the two were talking, a man in a dark blue suit came over.

"President Yue!" Cheng Suyi raised his hand to greet the person who came.

"Mm." Le Zong Le Yizhou nodded to Cheng Suyi.

He then waved his hand at him, stopping him from coming over, and quickly walked up to Chu Xunxiang and Du Yushu.

"Yizhou!" Du Yushu greeted him happily, "Good brother, long time no see!"

"Long time no see, Brother Du." Le Yizhou smiled and patted Du Yushu on the shoulder.

Chu Xunxiang was stunned for a moment when he saw that the two looked like brothers.

"Oh! I forgot to tell my sister-in-law!"

Du Yushu slapped his forehead and explained with a smile, "My family and Yizhou's family are old friends. We grew up together, but I went abroad to develop my career and haven't seen him for many years!"

"Don't shout!" Chu Xunxiang's expression immediately turned panicked.

This is on a film set!

Even if Du Yushu knew, he couldn't just say it so casually!

"Oh! I forgot!" Du Yushu covered his mouth, looking apologetic.

Seeing Chu Xunxiang's flustered state, Le Yizhou glanced at her, and the corners of his mouth, which had been slightly upturned, drooped down a bit.

But neither of them noticed his micro-expressions.

Then Du Yushu nudged Le Yizhou and jokingly asked, "You two have been together for quite a few years, haven't you? Why haven't you announced it yet?"

Chu Xunxiang was taken aback, not expecting that he was unaware of what had happened between him and Le Yizhou afterward.

She figured Le Yizhou would explain to Du Yushu, so it wouldn't be appropriate for her to stay there any longer.

He then gave a polite smile and said, "Mr. Yue, Mr. Du, I have something to attend to, so I won't bother you any longer."

"Okay!" Du Yushu thought Chu Xunxiang was just embarrassed, so he waved to her.

Then she leaned closer to Le Yizhou and continued to ask, "Does your aunt not approve of your relationship?"

Le Yizhou watched Chu Xunxiang leave in a hurry, pursed his lips, and did not answer Du Yushu's question, seemingly lost in thought.

Even the most carefree Du Yushu was somewhat aware of the unusual situation between the two at this moment.

He paused for a moment, then tentatively asked, "You two broke up?"

“…Hmm.” Le Yizhou remained silent for a long while before finally responding.

Du Yushu's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at him.

It took him a while to calm down, and he stammered, "What happened? Didn't you say you really liked her? Besides, you're not bad-looking, she doesn't need to break up with you, does she?"

Le Yizhou shook his head, not wanting to answer.

He looked at Du Yushu and said, "You were busy the past few days, but now you have time to get together, right? Brother Lu is already waiting for you."

"okay!"

Du Yushu immediately put his previous emotions behind him and put his arm around Le Yizhou's shoulder: "As expected, Yizhou is the best, coming to pick me up in person!"

"I lost the bet," Le Yizhou said calmly.

"I knew it!" Du Yushu shouted unhappily.

The two then left the film set while talking.

......

That same day, news of Shen Yu and Shen Qingqing's actions spread across the internet, with many celebrities revealing the inside story through alternate accounts.

Shen Qingqing and the Shen family also issued an urgent denial, saying that Shen Yu and Shen Qingqing were innocent and were being used.

Shen Yu may be truly innocent, but Shen Qingqing's statements are completely inconsistent, so she is definitely guilty!

However, there is no further evidence, and netizens have been discussing it back and forth without coming to a conclusion.

However, because of this incident, the Shen family was once again thrust into the spotlight.

The online outcry only subsided after the compensation paid to Shi Xiaxia was announced.

......

Since this incident, although Shen Yu and Shen Qingqing have remained in the film crew, no one dares to approach the two siblings.

Only Zhong Yajun remained by their side, and everyone else knew her intentions to some extent, so no one spoke up to stop her.
