“I don’t know how you two hooked up, nor do I know whether you’re truly clueless about Gao Nan already having a girlfriend when you started dating him or deliberately kept in the dark by that two-timing jerk. What I’m sure of is that Shishi would never betray our friendship.”
“Don’t be quick to judge one by their appearance. No one knows what really lies beneath your friend’s pure and harmless exterior.”
“The same can be said about you; in fact, it’s more appropriate for you!”
“Your words aren’t valid!”
“Why not?” Xiao Xue demanded. “Why would Shishi do such a thing when she’s already married!”
A deafening silence ensued following her words, for the audience was utterly flabbergasted. The actress being married already was a piece of Earth-shattering information, which soon got them all in a frenzy.
At this moment, no one was concerned about the love triangle between Ji Yan, Gao Nan, and Yun Shishi; their focus was entirely on this unknown marriage of the last one among the three who were just mentioned.
Realizing her slip of the tongue, Xiao Xue’s eyes widened. She then frowned and bit her lip in regret.
From behind, Qin Zhou looked at his charge’s best friend with shock.
This Xiao Xue is a tad too rash!
How could she let this news slip just like that?
The woman whipped her head back at once and gave her friend a remorseful yet helpless look. Her eyes seemed to be saying that the purpose of her appearing here was to prove the latter’s innocence, not to create trouble for her!
Unfortunately, she had done the exact opposite of that by putting her foot in her mouth!
What should I do now?
Is it too late to correct my words?
Retracting my words in front of so many reporters will only put Shishi in a more difficult and passive position.
“I’m sorry…” Her lips quivered in misery. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t mean to cause you trouble… I-I just got too worked up…”
“It’s fine.”
Meanwhile, there was a growing commotion below the stage.
It was too shocking!
The rising starlet had apparently gotten hitched secretly at her young age of twenty-four!
It was almost unheard of in showbiz, for celebrities relied pretty much on their looks and youth to succeed in their acting career. Because of their short-lived youth, most female celebs were quite opposed to getting married early and would rather spend their precious time climbing up the social ladder.
Of course, it was another matter if they managed to marry into a prestigious family, becoming rich madams and ultimately bidding showbiz goodbye. Only a handful—those who suffered grievances at home—would continue taking on acting jobs to earn a living and maintain their onscreen presence.
Yun Shishi, however, had a promising future on this path right from her debut, and she even had the potential to replace Han Yuyan in the time to come. Everyone had high hopes for her, yet now, it was accidentally revealed that she had already tied the knot.
It was unbelievable.
“Are you really married?”
“Why didn’t you announce it?”
“Can you reveal who your marriage partner is?”
…
Yun Shishi stood up with a sigh and walked to the front of the stage. There, she flashed a calm smile as she looked at the sea of presspeople with bright, unflinching eyes.
