Chapter 458 - Public Discussion (2/2)
“Why? You have something for me?”
“Yup, about the topic we had discussed yesterday on ending our confusing relations.h.i.+p. What is your take?”
“Our marriage is wrong fundamentally and now you also know what kind of a man I am, so we better end this. You and I would both get our freedom back once again, and as you have said before, you would end this relations.h.i.+p when you found a suitable man,” Xiao Luo said, “Since it will be terminated anyway, we might as well end it now, what do you think… huh? Err, what’s going on?”
He realized that Su Li’s eyes had reddened, and Xiao Luo felt confused even as he was speaking.
“Haven’t you heard of the line ‘the organizer reserves the right of final decision and interpretation’ before?” Su Li riposted, containing her tears and smiling mirthlessly.
Xiao Luo was shocked and a question popped into his mind immediately—what did she mean?
“I will terminate it when I deem it suitable, so before that moment arrives, please do not speak about the termination ever again.”
Su Li answered with much anger and then left right after. As she turned around, tears streamed down her cheeks, and she could not understand how this man could be so cold to her. Did he not even consider spending the rest of his life with her at all?
In fact, the thought never occurred to Xiao Luo. Since Su Li had told him that she would terminate the relations.h.i.+p after finding an appropriate man, he naturally did not attach any emotions to her. Although he had feelings for her from time to time, he had intentionally suppressed those emotions.
He sighed, “Alright, let’s see how long can you last in this game!”
…
…
It was another day, and the internet broke out with news on Su Li with sensational headlines in various media.
“Shocking! National Diva Su Li married a long time ago!”
“Su Li has cheated everyone!”
“The mysterious man behind the National G.o.ddess, Su Li!”
“The collapsing of her character—the National Diva Su Li’s scam!”
These eye-catching headings had taken the internet by storm, and more netizens began getting involved in the discussion. Every media platform had over a hundred thousand comments, and there were different voices.
“Don’t bother, it’s s...o...b..z. Many celebrities declare that they are single even when they’re married, this is not uncommon.”
“Who’s that man, sh*t, how can he be so lucky. On top of that, f*ck you, why didn’t you get a clear picture of that man, is your handphone camera resolution that low?”
“So my G.o.ddess had already married someone and become a wife? Oh, my G.o.d, she had lied to all of us!”
“When I think of my G.o.ddess moaning under some random dude, all I want to do is to blow up a bomb in a crowded place for revenge!”
“It’s all gone, I’m done watching her movies and films, no more of her songs for me. I have officially turned from being a fan to a stranger.”
This public discussion had a very negative impact on Su Li, and her Weibo fan-following had dropped from seventy million to fifty million within a day. The numbers were still falling, and her social media was inundated by many fans, all claiming that they were disappointed in Su Li.
Chai Zhiying was as anxious as the ants on a boiling pot; she kept walking back and forth in the apartment, and so did Luo Pingxiang. Su Li’s mother, w.a.n.g Wanjing, and Su Li’s brother, Su Canye, were also present.
To become a superstar was never easy, and the climb was an arduous one, slowly acc.u.mulating the number of fans bit by bit, but it wasn’t difficult to plummet from that position. Staying on top was always harder.
This public discussion had threatened Su Li’s standing with her fans, and it could very well be the catalyst that would end her career!
“What? President Zhang, how could you do that, Li Li is the backbone of our company… h.e.l.lo? h.e.l.lo…”
Chai Zhiying threw the phone aside in disappointment and looked at Su Li. ” Li Li, the company just notified us that they intend to terminate our contractual relations.h.i.+p. Every film making and song recording would be aborted, and this is the board’s final decision,” she said, looking entirely at her wits’ end.
