Chapter 232 Black Material
"What do you mean?"
The woman in front of him looked at him with calm, unwavering eyes. She seemed perfectly at ease, yet it made him feel as if all his secrets had vanished before her.
The more she looked at it, the more it resembled the woman she secretly wished she could kill.
Shi Youyou's heart pounded like thunder, and a bead of cold sweat trickled down her forehead.
She was all alone here, and a group of accomplices were following her not far behind; it wasn't a good place to start a fight.
After quickly glancing at the people following Su Ran, Shi Youyou suddenly realized that this group was not simple; one of them was even carrying a camera.
She looked around a few more times and actually spotted a few familiar faces.
During the months that Shi Youyou was confined in the mental hospital, she spent every day watching television. She watched a lot of Pei Yang's dramas and naturally recognized this simply dressed popular young actor.
Therefore, the identity of that woman from earlier is self-evident...
Su Ran walked leisurely towards the steps, not even glancing at Shi Youyou, leaving only a single sentence:
"It's not easy to get your body cured, but you insist on walking into the line of fire. Your eyesight is poor, and your brain isn't sharp either." There was a hint of disdain in his words.
Shi Youyou was annoyed by her dismissive tone.
She shouted, "Stop!"
Seeing that Su Ran did not stop, she chased after her and stood in front of Su Ran.
"Apologies. I recognize you, Ghost Voice. It's not proper for a celebrity to act like a diva towards a random passerby, is it?"
Su Ran casually raised her eyes, then kicked him.
With a scream of "Ah!", Shi Youyou rolled sideways down the slope.
"You were just about to do this to me, weren't you? Here you go."
Shi Youyou was about to crash into Director Pang and his group of people behind her, just like a bowling ball.
"What happened? Someone rolled down."
"Is it dangerous up there? Ghost Voice is ahead."
"She seems to have fallen quite badly; call an ambulance for her."
One of them kindly tried to help Shi Youyou up, but she slapped him away.
"Mind your own business! You're all in cahoots!"
The person who went to help was a young girl, whose delicate hands were red and swollen from being hit.
She complained, "You're crazy, I'm not talking to you anymore."
Shi Youyou gritted her teeth in hatred!
Ghost Voice, you just wait!
Shi Youyou wasn't seriously injured; she just had some scrapes and looked rather pitiful.
When she arrived at the security room on the mountain, she startled everyone. Her first words were: "I was maliciously injured by someone, and I'm going to check the surveillance footage and report her!"
Once she got hold of the surveillance footage, she posted the video online.
Let's hire a huge wave of online trolls to harass Guiyin and see how she handles it!
However, the security personnel could not find the scene of her being hit when they retrieved the surveillance video provided by Shi Youyou.
"Are you sure you were hit by someone?" The security guard pointed at the screen. In the video, Shi Youyou fell down the slope on her own, and no one touched a single piece of her clothes.
"How is that possible? I was kicked down by her!" Shi Youyou exclaimed in disbelief.
"Think about it again. Maybe someone just happened to be passing by, and you accidentally tripped over it, and then you misunderstood them." The security guard looked at Shi Youyou with a look that said, "You're an idiot."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! She kicked me!" The pain in her leg was clear; she definitely didn't fall on her own.
"There must be something wrong with your surveillance system!" she shouted as she lunged at him.
The security guard was speechless.
“This is real-time dynamic video, how could it be faked? If I, an old man in my fifties or sixties, knew this kind of technology, would I be working as a security guard?”
Shi Youyou held her head, feeling a splitting headache.
Could it be that I've been in a mental hospital for too long and it's caused problems?
That's right. Guiyin and she weren't familiar with each other at all, and her appearance and clothing after her recovery were very different from before. Even if Guiyin had seen her photos from Su Ran, she wouldn't recognize her immediately.
and so……
When I first encountered Guiyin, she didn't say a word. Did she stage the whole thing herself, rolling down the slope? And you thought she kicked you down?
very scary.
She needs to see a doctor.
After modifying the surveillance footage, Little Butterfly smiled broadly.
[Host, now Shi Youyou might start to think she's crazy.]
[You've worked hard, I'll bring you a hamburger when I get back.]
【Yay! Can I have another big chicken leg? Call me again next time you need something like this! I promise I'll handle it perfectly!】
The opening ceremony went relatively smoothly. By the time it ended, the sun had set, and rows of soft, fluffy clouds were tinged with gold. Su Ran's figure, leaning against the car body, was also gilded with a layer of gold, appearing hazy and indistinct.
Zhong Jue gazed at her, mesmerized, unwilling to disturb this beautiful scene.
Unexpectedly, the person he regarded as a goddess looked at him indifferently.
"Where are the car keys?" Li Yu texted her, saying that Zhong Jue had forced her to leave work, and now the car keys were in Zhong Jue's hands. Su Ran had been waiting for him here for half an hour.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat." Zhong Jue's face lit up with a charming smile, his fox-like eyes becoming even more alluring.
"No need, we had a vegetarian meal on the mountain."
"Vegetarian food isn't filling enough, I'll take you to eat meat."
"Celebrities have a need to maintain their physique."
"You don't need that, you just need to eat well, sleep well, and have fun."
"..." She had seen Zhong Jue berate an artist who had gained two pounds at the company last time.
Since the food wasn't very filling, Su Ran was indeed a little hungry.
Therefore, when Zhong Jue drove to a high-end restaurant, she did not refuse.
After a quick and simple meal, Zhong Jue took Su Ran home.
As soon as I entered the living room, I was met with Little Butterfly's resentful gaze.
Where's my hamburger?
"..." I forgot.
She had no choice but to order takeout for Little Butterfly.
Although the opening ceremony was held, the actual filming location was quite far away. Director Pang gave them three days, and the actors had to make ample preparations before they could set off.
So Su Ran started participating in various activities these past few days.
For example, the Golden Melody Awards.
There was no doubt that she deserved the award. She stood on the dazzling stage and delivered a prepared acceptance speech.
At this point, a host asked her a question.
"We heard that Ghost Voice has already started filming on location, but the promotional photos don't seem to look quite like you now. Could you take off your mask and let us see your real face in advance?"
As soon as she said that, both online viewers and offline guests were drawn to her, their eyes fixed on Su Ran, eager to hear her response.
At this moment, Su Ran was wearing a black backless dress. The fishtail skirt accentuated her slender curves, and although the V-neck was not very deep, it could not hide her impressive cleavage.
She possesses such an alluring figure, yet her face is adorned with eyes that appear as if they've been soaked in icy water, and the lower half of her face is perfectly covered by a diamond mask.
Compared to the rather ordinary face in the promotional photo, the ghostly voice in front of me was simply too dazzling.
Su Ran was taller than the female host. Seeing how hard she was working to hold the microphone, she lowered her head slightly and said in a gentle and elegant voice, "Please watch 'Late Autumn Young Women' and you will see my most authentic self."
The crowd howled.
The day after receiving the trophy, I went to attend the Hundred Flowers Awards ceremony.
Su Ran was just a minor character; she had no expectations of winning an award. However, when it came to the Best Newcomer Award segment, she appeared on the big screen dressed in men's costume.
So she took home another Best Newcomer Award.
These past two days have been dominated by her award-winning posts, with fans celebrating in her comment section, inevitably leading to arguments with some celebrity fans whose interests clash with hers.
Then a bunch of baseless accusations started circulating.
The general idea is that the ghost voice has a powerful backer.
The marketing account even listed all the "big spenders".
Zhong Jue, Gu Cai...
She even cited evidence that they were her sugar daddies.
For example, the black guitar in her hand was reportedly a gift from Zhong Jue, according to insiders at the company. They also photographed Zhong Jue personally driving and having dinner with Guiyin.
For example, Gu Cai personally taught her to play the guitar, and he also personally arranged the music for several of her new songs.
What's worse than that is that he even targeted the veteran artist, splashing water on her in a filthy way, as if she were a ghost who would sleep with anyone.
But these messages had barely surfaced before they were suppressed and cleared by a powerful force before Su Ran could even see them.
An Yecheng stubbed out his cigarette and asked Zhou Ming, "Was it that woman named Shi Youyou who did it?"
Zhou Ming nodded seriously, "There are also traces of Shi An and the old lady's handiwork in this."
An Yecheng narrowed his eyes. "How did that matter go?"
Zhou Ming: "Boss, I have made arrangements according to your requirements. I believe that in a few days, the ownership of Qingcheng Conservatory of Music will return to you. At that time, the old lady will have no other support."
