Chapter 163 - Chapter 163

Jiang Xun's question was quickly answered.

 The system calculated it, "The luck gained in this world is already enough. The benefits promised to you before will be given to you once the world ends. You only need to complete this world mission to regain your freedom."

 Jiang Xun said with a bit of meaning, "But I still haven't had enough fun."

 The system was delighted to hear this, "If you're still willing to do missions in The Beauty System, the system can give you other even better benefits."

 Yet, Jiang Xun curled her lips. "I've already got what I want most. As for other benefits, um... … forget it."

 It's also quite tiring to travel through various worlds to do missions. Now that she can finally regain her freedom, she should go back to the previous world and have fun. When she thinks about the beauty she used to have, she can't restrain the joy and excitement in her heart.

 "But… …" The system still wanted to persuade her again.

 "Let's talk about it again when this world's mission is finished, maybe I'll change my mind then?"

 The system thought to itself: If it knew she was this good, it would have let the Lord Supervisor give her a more difficult system. It didn't know if it could find another tasker like her.

 The system began to worry, while Jiang Xun's mind returned back on the mission.

 ...

 With Jiang Xun self-exposing on the show that she had a boyfriend, the video of her public confession was re-posted on the Internet. She has just gained a little fame, yet admits she had a boyfriend, which attracted heated discussions among the netizens. Many netizens felt she was realistic. At the same time, the crew of"Seven Lives"announced Jiang Xun would be acting as the third female supporting character to take advantage of this hype to increase the attention on this film.

 The crew's official Weibo also officially released the names of all the leading roles and the roles they will be played in the next five days as well as announced that they would post a set of still photos next week.

 Previously, Xue Zhou's diehard fans had heard that the male lead in "Immortal Fate of Seven Lives" would be Xue Zhou, but this time in the official announcement, it was changed. Only then were Xue Zhou's fans surprised to find that Xue Zhou seems to have nothing in recent days. Then, checking the several brands he endorsed, they also released the news of new spokespersons around the same time.

 Moreover, the Xue Company, under Huo Group's suppression, already had no new business, while they were also unable to issue old business orders due to the abrupt out-of-stock of their supplier. It was about to face the danger of breaching its contracts. Not only does it have to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages, without new business, the company's liquidity soon was emptied. In just a few days, a fiscal deficit has occurred.

 Xue Yuan had already determined the cause of the Huo Group, while Xue Zhou, as a first-line actor, had also been forced to no activities by Huo Yuan Ze. His schedule was blank for the next six months. If this was spread out, no one would believe it.

 However, the number of Xue Zhou's fans is still quite large. After discovering that Xue Zhou had been shelved for no reason, they immediately went to the agency to question and spontaneously organized themselves to help Xue Zhou. This raised a lot of noise on the Internet. People who knew the inside story all said Xue Zhou had offended someone because of a woman.

 Many netizens, who watched the excitement, also began to pay attention to this matter.

 It wasn't until a huge blogger on Weibo suddenly revealed the news between Xue Zhou and actress Nie Ying Ying along with photos of the two dating. In the photos, Xue Zhou and Nie Ying Ying acted intimately, which obviously hinted at an ambiguous relationship. This matter instantly changed the attention of his fans.

 Immediately afterwards, Nie Ying Ying stood out and said she had misjudged him along with the fact she was duped by Xue Zhou. She also wrote a long Weibo post.

 Only when Xue Yuan saw this Weibo in the company did she learn that Xue Zhou had a romantic relationship with someone else without telling her.

 Not only didn't she believe it, she also used her side account to scold Nie Ying Ying on Weibo. In the end, she was cyber-manhunt by Nie Ying Ying's fans.

 To which, Xue Yuan simply stated online that the actress was lying with her real account. Xue Zhou had never been ambiguous with her, it was only her own one-sided thinking or maybe she made up for the hype.

 The public opinion on the Internet began to fall between the two sides. Seeing Xue Yuan's reaction was so strong and was sending this many words on the Internet, he persuaded her to stop. Yet, Xue Yuan's emotions were extremely agitated. Her appearance showed she wouldn't stop and her madness forced Xue Zhou to dare not to admit he had a relationship with Nie Ying Ying. Who knew that Xue Yuan would steal Xue Zhou's phone and send a clarification post in his name, refuting Nie Ying Ying's words as well as mocking her?

 Xue Zhou's fans naturally accounted for the majority, so Nie Ying Ying's Weibo quickly fell under attack. She had no choice, but turned off comments and private messages due to the haters.

 When Xue Zhou learned of this, it was already too late. Xue Yuan insisted on going her own way and wouldn't listen to anything he said.

 But this also pushed Nie Ying Ying too far. After being cursed at for a few days, things then took a sharp turn. Nie Ying Ying made public the chat history with Xue Zhou on the web along with those unbearable swears Xue Yuan had scolded her with.

 The people, who eat melons, were stupefied by the stone-hard evidence Nie Ying Ying posted. Of course, the people who were most surprised were Xue Yuan and Xue Zhou. Xue Yuan still didn't believe it was true when she saw the chat history until Xue Zhou personally admitted it to her.

 Because of Huo Yuan Ze's pressure, the company's senior executives previously only decided to temporarily shelf him. After all, the company utilized a large price to push him to his position today and his capability was quite excellent. Therefore, the company was still reluctant to give up on him. Who knew he would attract this much trouble?

 Xue Zhou's team has been at peace for too long, so their emergency response ability was completely inadequate. The day after Nie Ying Ying's post, they still haven't thought of a counterattack. In the end, they bought a few hot searches to divert the attention of the masses. Not only did they have no effect, but they were noticed and then mocked by the crowd.

 Xue Zhou and the Xue Company were utterly over. When Jiang Xun saw Xue Zhou again, it was already half a year later. By that time, she had made two movies, one of which was even starring her. In order to promote the film, she participated in a variety show together with the other actors. Excluding the actors in their crew, there were some special guests that included Xue Zhou.

 Xue Zhou was no longer that high-spirited actor, who carried his own male god background music, from six months ago. He appeared much more haggard and his luck aura was almost dim.

 When the two locked eyes, it was Xue Zhou, who glanced away first. Jiang Xun's gaze was composed without any inkling.

 During the break time, Jiang Xun was in her dressing room to touch up on her makeup. Since there was no one else in the room and Xue Zhou was pacing in front of her doorway, Jiang Xun thought about it before heading out.

 Seeing Xue Zhou waiting outside, Jiang Xun greeted him.

 "Long time no see."

 Xue Zhou looked at her with sullen eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he still asked. "Do you hate me?"

 Jiang Xun froze, "Why do you ask this?"

 She didn't deny it, which was tantamount to admitting in another form.

 Xue Zhou laughed bitterly, "You went to find Nie Ying Ying, right? You also told her the intention my older sister had towards me."

 Jiang Xun recalled what happened half a year ago. Indeed, she had someone find Nie Ying Ying to give Xue Zhou the final blow, which made him lose his fans and people's hearts. Without anyone pleading for his injustice, the fall from his high platform began.

 Jiang Xun looked at him and didn't answer. Xue Zhou took it as her tacit agreement and his gaze became even more sorrowful. He lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "I'm apologizing in place of my sister. Right now, she is in poor health and wants to see you."

 Jiang Xun responded, "I'd rather not, there's no meaning in meeting."

 At this time, someone just happened to pass by so Xue Zhou deliberately concealed himself.

 Thus, Jiang Xun said nothing and turned to leave.

 Watching her, Xue Zhou somehow thought of the scene when he first saw Jiang Xun.

 That little girl who was so fragile that caused people to feel heartache and distressed was now beyond his reach.
