When he posted on Weibo to choose the accompanying photo, Wu Dai suddenly realized that almost all the movie leads were in the photos taken tonight. Even Xi De was in the group photo, but Lu Zhen was not among them. If this Weibo post was posted, the netizens would definitely notice that Lu Zhen was not in the photo. Would they have any guesses then?
Wu Dai hesitated for a few seconds, but he still posted the edited Weibo post. In any case, it was Lu Zhen who did not give him face first, so why should he care about her? In any case, she had indeed not come to celebrate his birthday. This was the truth.
The next day, Lu Zhen woke up and was washing up when Xiaoxiao ran in angrily with her cell phone in her hand. She said angrily, “They must have done it on nun-nose! This is too much!”
Lu Zhen looked at Xiaoxiao in confusion.
“Sister Zhenzhen, Xu Rui and Wu Dai posted on Weibo yesterday. There were photos of birthday parties on Weibo, but you weren’t in the photos. Now, the marketing accounts on the Internet are spreading rumors that you’re not popular in the production team. They even say that you’re arrogant!”
Xiaoxiao was so angry that her face turned red. Lu Zhen picked up her phone and flipped through it. As expected, the trending topic of “Lu Zhen’s bad relationship with the production team of ‘Beauty’” had already risen to more than ten.
The content of this trending topic was not considered explosive. Perhaps it would not reach the top of the trending list in the end, but looking at the discussion posts in the square, the netizens’ enthusiasm for discussion was still very high.
As Lu Zhen was indeed not in the photo, this trending topic still had a certain authenticity in the eyes of the netizens.
Some people said that Lu Zhen did not have many friends in the entertainment industry and rarely saw her post photos with other celebrities. Perhaps Lu Zhen was indeed very difficult to get along with or aloof.
Some people said that Lu Zhen had poor affinity and was aloof, so there were naturally people who refuted. They said that Lu Zhen was only focused on her career and only spoke with her works.
Both sides were about to start arguing.
Lu Zhen wiped her face with a dry towel and began to skincare. As she applied the essence to her face, she smiled and said, “There’s nothing to be angry about. I don’t like to interact with strangers to begin with. I really don’t have many friends in the circle.”
“But now, many people are spreading rumors that you’re aloof and have a bad temper. They even say that you’ve offended several female celebrities in the same period. That’s why they never interact with you,” Xiaoxiao said gloomily.
Lu Zhen sighed. “Their mouths are on them. Can we still force them to praise me and not slander me?
“Sister Zhenzhen, you’re too Buddhist. That’s why they think they can bully you as they please. No, I have to tell Sister Ye Xuan about this and see how to fight back. Remember to wear more clothes to the set later. Don’t freeze again.” After Xiaoxiao reminded her, she hurriedly picked up her phone and contacted Ye Xuan.
After Lu Zhen finished nursing her skin, she did a fitness exercise she had learned online. After practicing her Qigong, Lu Zhen suddenly thought of something and picked up her phone to look at the chat software.
After chatting with Song Jia yesterday, the content of the conversation was no longer updated. Song Jia probably sensed that she was in a bad mood, so he didn’t look for her again.
Lu Zhen bit her lip. After sleeping for the entire night, her emotions returned to normal. She immediately wondered if she had misunderstood Song Jia yesterday. He had asked the director to use a stand-in actor for her sake.
The two of them had different attitudes towards this matter, which led to a conflict.
Lu Zhen hesitated if she should take the initiative to say something. Putting everything else aside, Song Jia was still her boss. The reason she could be where she was today was all because she had entered Jia Le. She shouldn’t throw a tantrum with her boss.
Lu Zhen decided to take the initiative to apologize for what happened yesterday, but she placed her finger on the chat box and did not know what to say.
It was getting late. Lu Zhen was worried that she would be late, so she put away her cell phone and prepared to send Song Jia a message after thinking about how to reply. She put on her thick coat and grabbed her thermos and script. Just as she opened the door and walked out, she felt someone standing by the wall.
Lu Zhen turned around and was shocked.
The person standing by the wall was Song Jia.
The man was wearing a black casual outfit and a baseball cap on his head. The black made his temperament look even lower. Coupled with his tall figure, he gave off an even more oppressive feeling.
Lu Zhen’s heart raced. Could it be that Song Jia was here to settle scores with her? It couldn’t be, right? She had only questioned Song Jia yesterday and didn’t say anything rude. He couldn’t be that petty, right?
Their eyes met. Song Jia slowly stood up and sized up Lu Zhen..
