After being reborn, I became a top-tier celebrity by resetting my game history.

Chapter 158 The Rival Declares War

Before he could even ask what had happened, Shen Chaohuai shifted the focus of the argument to Gu Xing.

"I've heard that Actor Gu has a lot of scandals and often brings different actresses home to stay. How come he doesn't even spare married women?"

Su Qi grabbed Shen Chaohuai: "Are you crazy?! What nonsense are you talking about? Nothing like that happened between us!"

"I'm going to say it!"

Shen Chaohuai could no longer tolerate it.

"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that someone like Gu Xing was wronged!"

His eyes were red, and although he was hurling harsh words, he felt incredibly wronged inside.

Seeing this, Gu Xing had no choice but to apologize and explain: "I'm sorry, you misunderstood. Su Qi was helping me deliver the contract signing notice. She originally wanted me to accept the role of the male lead in a movie."

Shen Chaohuai instantly became alert: "Announcement? What announcement?"

"Could it be the movie that Su Qi is going to take on?"

"Yes, that's the one..." Gu Xing hesitated.

"Fine, Su Qi, you let him participate in variety shows and then act with you? What makes you think you can do that? Are you just trying to ride his coattails or do you have some other motive?"

"No, no," Gu Xing waved his hands repeatedly, "I didn't participate in all of them. Originally, they wanted me to act in movies and refuse to participate in variety shows. It was a choice between two options."

Enraged, Shen Chaohuai didn't think twice and blurted out to Gu Xing, "You green tea... Did I ask you to explain?! What are you pretending to be pitiful for?"

Gu Xing scratched his head: "Why can't you explain it?! You don't believe me, but you'll believe what she says herself, right? Su Qi, you explain yourself clearly."

Su Qi gritted her teeth, not knowing what had happened, but it seemed she had triggered another chaotic situation.

“Shen Chaohuai, he didn’t lie. I did send him the notice and contract signing form. Look.”

She took out the contract from her bag, but Shen Chaohuai became a little anxious instead.

"Hmm, you've even learned to explain things for him. Su Qi, you're becoming more and more reasonable."

She slammed down the notice, not bothering to consider Shen Chaohuai's feelings: "What exactly are you trying to do? You can accuse me of anything I say, I'm not putting up with this anymore!"

Su Qi was about to leave when Shen Chaohuai revealed her plan in front of Gu Xing.

"When the dating reality show needed to remove a male celebrity from the lineup, I went to great lengths to clear the obstacles for you, offending so many people in the process. I finally managed to get rid of one of your rivals, and now you're blaming me."

Su Qi was also furious, completely disregarding Gu Xing's thoughts: "I need your help? What's the use of getting rid of Jian Yuxi? If you're so capable, why don't you target a few top celebrities? What? Afraid to offend them?"

"Li Yancheng, Gu Xing, with such a good opportunity, aren't you just as cowardly and bullying of the weak?"

Shen Chaohuai didn't know what to say, only feeling a tightness in his chest: "I have no other choice but to get rid of that Jian Yuxi."

As the two argued, Gu Xing finally understood what Shen Chaohuai meant when she said that she had taken advantage of him.

Gu Xing has always been the one taking advantage of others. This is the first time he has been manipulated by a female celebrity of only average fame. He wouldn't have believed it if she hadn't said it herself.

"So, you're asking me to switch schedules because you don't want me to participate in variety shows?"

"If I don't participate in variety shows, you'll have one less competitor?"

"You see me as an opponent? Is that it?"

Gu Xing slowly clenched his fist.

"Do you hate me that much?"

"Everything I did before was out of necessity, yet you... hate me?"

Gu Xing sighed dejectedly.

Shen Chaohuai wouldn't listen to his explanation; the person he sincerely wanted to treat was using him.

Let's just go all the way and get straight to the point.

He acted somewhat irrationally, walking over to Su Qi, taking her arm, and forcefully planting a kiss on her cheek.

She panicked, and Shen Chaohuai pushed the two of them away in disbelief.

Gu Xing, who had been pushed away, smiled and said, "Su Qi, I like you, and I really mean it."

"I will participate in the dating reality show. I will do my best to compete to see who is more suitable to be her on-screen boyfriend. Of course, I will also seize opportunities in private."

"I want to be not only her on-screen boyfriend, but also her official boyfriend."

Gu Xing smiled at Shen Chaohuai: "Now, get out of my house!"

Shen Chaohuai pointed at Gu Xing, then hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.

"Very good!"

Shen Chaohuai's gaze finally landed on Su Qi. He was sulking and deliberately banged on the door as he left.

"Then I wish you success."

All was quiet. Su Qi rubbed his hair in frustration.

What is this?!

"I'm sorry, shall I take you home?" Gu Xing's voice suddenly softened.

"No need, I'm not without legs! I can walk by myself!" Su Qi pushed him away and quickly opened the door to leave.

Back home, Su Qi's mind was filled with gloom whenever she thought about Shen Chaohuai's discomfiture.

[His master clearly cares about him a lot.]

But she stubbornly retorted to Feifei, "Who cares about him? What can someone like him do besides impotent rage?!"

That's because he cares about his master and is afraid that his master might really get together with that Gu Xing.

[But is what Gu Xing said true? Does he like his master?]

Feifei found it funny when she thought about it.

"How would I know? Maybe they're just trying to create hype again."

She didn't think that a top-tier man could come up with anything simple.

Su Qi pulled out a few tissues with obvious disgust and vigorously wiped her face.

The third season of the dating reality show "We May Be" is being filmed today. It's the first day of filming, and there's no fixed schedule. The goal is to prepare all the materials and props in advance.

Su Qi believed that variety shows also had scripts, and sure enough, after she became the queen of dating variety shows, the organizers secretly sent her a fax.

Lynn opened the file and exclaimed, "Is this really a script?"

Su Qi took the script: "I told you, Zheng Xin and the others in the previous seasons of variety shows also had scripts. They were all acting to create buzz for the variety shows."

Nowadays, audiences don't care much about the script; they only care whether the content depicted conforms to moral values.

However, to Su Qi's surprise, this dating reality show was quite different, as it incorporated elements of a crime simulation show and invited Xiang Boshan, the most famous forensic expert in Singapore, to provide commentary behind the scenes.

Su Qi was shocked when she saw a familiar name in the script. No wonder the organizers of the dating show wanted to keep Xiang Zhouzhou in this season's variety show. It turned out they were trying to ride the wave of popularity and generate buzz.

"Simulated crime?" Lynn couldn't help but worry after reading it. "So, we have to act out crime scenes? That's too dangerous."

Su Qi didn't take it seriously: "What danger could there be? Maybe even the props are fake."

Lynn couldn't put it into words, but she had a bad feeling about it.

Su Qi was assigned to the hotel's largest presidential suite. The production team said that she was the only one there, so her treatment was very different.

Her lounge door was open, and Shen Chaohuai happened to pass by. The two looked at each other for a second and then snorted coldly at each other.

Lynn: "Oh my god, this is incredible!"

"You and Shen Chaohuai..."

She took a sip of coffee and swirled the white ceramic cup: "We've been in a cold war for days, I'm used to it."
