Lu Youze couldn’t help but feel a bit rueful, thinking to himself, “He’s also a fool.” Love really is a terrifying and powerful thing; it turns out that some people would be willing to give up everything for love.
At that moment, Gu Xuanze’s face unexpectedly appeared in his mind.
Lu Youze couldn’t help but think, if it were Gu Xuanze, would he be willing to give up everything for Lu Youze?
The answer was almost on the tip of his tongue, but Lu Youze didn’t want to know.
That uncomfortable feeling surged again, and he couldn’t even explain why.
Lu Youze shook his head, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. He pushed all the messy emotions in his mind aside and began to look at the trending comments under his long Weibo post.
“Has the Gu family and Lu family started public relations? A scumbag can be washed so white… money really is great.”
The label of “scumbag” was slapped on him first, which truly had the style of the Yu Li family. The comments under this post were also all supporting this opinion, cursing him as a scumbag and sympathizing with Yu Li. He had long been used to the fans controlling the comments.
“Isn’t this just asking for a slap? Didn’t certain fans keep shouting for evidence before? Now that the evidence is all out, those fans are starting to bite back at public relations, how shameless.”
These comments likely weren’t from his own fans, nor from bystanders, and definitely not from water army hired by the Gu family.
Lu Youze guessed that these were probably fans of other families who were robbed of resources by Yu Li.
“I think the credibility is eighty percent.”
“With so much evidence, why wasn’t it presented when he was being blackened? Why only now?”
Some bystanders also raised questions.
“Maybe this is love.”
“I think so too. Think about it, what kind of person is Lu Youze? His family is rich and he has status in the entertainment industry. As long as he released these evidences at the first opportunity, clearing his name would have been easy. So why didn’t he do that? I think, just like he wrote in his little essay, he really loved Yu Li to the point of madness.”
“Then why is he coming out now?”
“He doesn’t love him anymore, can’t you see? It’s written clearly in the little essay that he lost his memory and then fell in love with CEO Gu.”
“If everything in this little essay is true, I might become a fan of CEO Gu. The usually cold and unyielding CEO turns out to be so gentle and considerate with his lover. It’s just the perfect combination of double standards and contrast, and I totally ship this couple. Of course, that’s assuming everything in the essay is true. Even though I’m a fan of looks, cheating is my bottom line.”
“All the evidence is up there, believe it or not. As for me, I believe it. Of course, this is just my personal opinion.”
These comments quickly topped the trending list, and many bystanders believed the story.
Lu Youze looked at these comments, feeling especially complicated.
As the comments kept flooding in and becoming more and more intense, fans who hadn’t dared to stand up for him when he was being blackened began to do so, of course, along with fans from other families trying to take advantage of the situation, and some of the water army hired by the Gu family. In short, the comment section was ablaze with activity.
Apart from the fans fighting among themselves, there were naturally media outlets fueling the fire.
Seeing the increasingly lively comment section, Lu Youze knew that the public relations department of Yuan Bo’s team must have started to act.
One after another, insiders revealed evidence of Yu Li’s plot to frame Gu Xuanze, and more and more well-known self-media outlets began to analyze the details of Lu Youze’s love for Yu Li, even suggesting that Lu Youze would have gone to great lengths to help Yu Li get the moon from the sky if that was what Yu Li wanted.
Why would Lu Youze, who treated Yu Li like a god, cheat? Well, it was up to individual interpretation.
Apart from the articles from self-media, many well-known video creators also edited and uploaded videos of the couple’s sweet moments, showing how, whenever Yu Li was present, Lu Youze’s gaze never left him.
The Gu family was really pulling out all the stops this time… Apart from the above, various major apps were also pushing Lu Youze’s long Weibo post and videos and articles that highlighted his deeply affectionate persona.
Public opinion is always changing, and in just one day, Lu Youze went from being criticized as a scumbag to receiving sympathy from many bystanders, while Yu Li’s image as the white knight quickly collapsed.
It was a lively day, and many netizens jokingly said it was hard to focus on work with all the drama going on.
The crowd just wanted to watch the show, while the two sides’ public relations teams were constantly battling in a war of wits and strategy.
