Chen Mo gave a humorless "Ha." After thinking it over, he said, "Don't let it happen again."
"You brat, don't push your luck!" Yang Qindong smacked Chen Mo on the head and said, "If you weren't born with a knack for attracting trouble, I wouldn't have had to resort to this."
While Chen Mo and Yang Qindong were bickering over Xiao Ding secretly taking photos on set, a huge uproar was also brewing online.
Ever since his debut, Chen Mo had carried labels like "genius youth," "top student," "multi-talented," "maxed-out luck," "hero saves beauty," and "kind-hearted"... People in the industry who had worked with him also spoke highly of him. Chen Mo had basically sailed smoothly all the way here, without any major negative press.
But now, someone had held a press conference accusing Chen Mo of throwing his weight around on set and bullying a female artist, even forcing an investor to consider pulling out... Such accusations, practically condemning him as morally corrupt, immediately caused a massive stir in the industry.
Chen Mo made the headlines again. This time, though, most of the comments beneath the news were insults aimed at him.
"...I always thought there was something wrong with Chen Mo. You could tell from how he handled the person responsible for that car accident that he was cold-blooded. Now that rumors have come out about him making things difficult for a new actress because love turned to hate, I'm not surprised at all..."
"...I'm so disappointed. I used to like Chen Mo so much. I never thought he was this kind of person..."
There were also plenty of industry peers who resented Chen Mo's rapid rise and hired online trolls to muddy the waters. Posing as insiders, they released all sorts of half-true and half-false revelations,
