Chapter 87: Took a Bite of a Fake Melon

Chapter 87

Shen Tang closed her phone and asked Tao Sister, "This person is a hater. What did you say he was organizing in the group chat?"

Tao Sister looked completely confused: "Huh?"

"No, Little Rui is not a hater."

Shen Tang stroked her chin. Since even Little Rui was brought up, it looked like they must have chatted for a while.

She took the opportunity to ask, "So tell me, what was the purpose of him creating that group?"

Tao Sister started mumbling again, unable to give a clear answer.

Shen Tang was a little worried that Tao Sister was being deceived. After all, even if he was a hater, he wouldn't be able to make too many waves since there were laws to restrict them.

"Forget it, if you don't want to say, then don't say anymore."

Just after she finished speaking, Tao Sister immediately smiled. "Then I won't say."

Shen Tang: "..."

"Just don't let yourself get deceived. Nowadays there are all kinds of crazy scam methods online. Who knows, there might be scammers pretending to be my fans, pulling you into groups and asking you for money."

"That won't happen. Little Rui isn't that kind of person. He even sends us money!"

Shen Tang: "..."

"There's even something that good happening?" Hearing that made her want to join the group even more.

"Yeah, he's your fan. When we go fight the haters, he gives us red packets!"

Shen Tang was a little shocked. "Ha? He really is my fan?"

"Yeah, I already said he's your fan. How could I trick you?" Tao Sister rolled her eyes, but still looked cute doing it.

Shen Tang laughed embarrassedly a couple times.

"Okay, I misunderstood..."

But she couldn't fully blame herself either. That fan was just too strange, first sending that kind of message earlier, it was hard not to misunderstand.

Wait a minute, could he be a converted hater? After all, there were quite a lot of fans like that too.

"Do you know his Weibo ID?"

"I know," Tao Sister said warningly, "But it's useless if you ask me, I won't tell you for now."

Shen Tang sighed. Tao Sister was too vigilant.

"Alright alright, I won't ask anymore. Oh right, this is food that Lan Sister gave me. Try some."

"That Lan girl? It's been a while since she came around."

"Tao Sister, you know Lan Sister too?" Shen Tang tilted her head to ask.

Come to think of it, it was normal they knew each other. After all, Gu Huai'an and Lan Sister were friends, although it seemed they didn't really like each other.

"I know her. That girl has a bitter fate." Tao Sister didn't say any more, but picked up a small cake to take a bite.

"Hmm, looks like that girl's skills have gotten even better."

"I just discovered--"

"Discovered what?" Qi Yue took the man's arm. "Let me introduce you. This is my nephew, Tang Shuqing."

"Not the fif--nephew? He's your nephew?"

Shen Tang blinked in shock, looking at Tang Shuqing, then at Qi Yue. Looking closely, it did seem they resembled each other a little.

She quickly turned to look at the Director, only to see him looking everywhere except at her, clearly looking very guilty.

Wow, she had taken a bite of fake gossip first thing in the morning!

Shen Tang was a little embarrassed. "Uh...pleased to meet you, big nephew..."

Now looking again, where was any greasiness or pretentiousness?

*Cough* He was clearly an elegant talent.

Tang Shuqing gave a faint smile. "Hello, big sister Shen Tang."

"Hello, big nephew, hello. Um...I didn't prepare any greeting gift, so have this lollipop."

Shen Tang took out a lollipop from her pocket and handed it over.

Tang Shuqing didn't disdain it and smiled as he accepted it.

Qi Yue raised her eyebrows. "Why aren't you making sarcastic comments anymore?"

Shen Tang embarrassedly grabbed her arm. "Misunderstanding, all misunderstandings, it's all his fault!"

Shen Tang mercilessly sold out the Director.

As an investor, Qi Yue was quite familiar with the Director and knew what kind of person he was.

"Just listen to what he says and take it with a grain of salt. Eight out of ten things he says are fake."

Shen Tang nodded. Fake gossip was harmful!

She looked at the Director. "Hurry up and honestly explain, where exactly did you hear this news from?"

No smoke without fire. Someone must have said it first for the rumor to have spread. She just didn't know who had such a loose tongue.

Qi Yue was also extremely curious. "Yes, who was the one speaking nonsense? How will I be able to find a boyfriend like this?"

The Director laughed drily. "Uh...I don't know who said it either. I just saw a line online..."

Shen Tang: "..."

"And you actually believed it?"

There wasn't even any evidence. Wasn't this just random slander?

The Director smiled awkwardly and didn't offer any explanations.

Qi Yue's eyes narrowed. "Not right."

"What's not right?"

"You wouldn't have believed it just from a random line online. Hurry and honestly explain, exactly where did you hear it from!"
