Was she a paparazzo too? Or a villager from around here?

Meanwhile, after the system introduced the other woman, Chu Xiyue's eyes lit up!

Before Wu Taotao could figure out how to start the conversation, she suddenly heard the other woman's suppressed but excited voice. "Are you Wu Taotao, that famous paparazzo from the internet?"

Wu Taotao had not expected anyone here to recognize her. Judging by the excited tone, this woman seemed to be her fan. She immediately waved her hands modestly. "I'm not that famous..."

Chu Xiyue hurried over, warmly took her hand, and asked excitedly, "Was that thing you posted on Weibo last week true? The boy band captain and a member fought over a girl?"

Wu Taotao: ?

This was a little different from what she had imagined.

Feeling Chu Xiyue's eager gaze, she answered instinctively, "That's right. Let me tell you, it started because boy band captain A and member B were competing for the same girl, but the girl liked member C!"

"Wow! It was actually a four-way relationship! What happened next?" Chu Xiyue looked at Wu Taotao expectantly.

Wu Taotao could not resist that look and continued, "C rejected the girl. After getting her heart broken, she started seeing A and B at the same time. A and B both knew about each other, and they fought because they were competing for her affection."

"Gasp! That relationship is so complicated! So exciting!"

As they walked along gossiping, they reached a brighter area. Wu Taotao suddenly realized that this "fan" looked rather familiar.

"Chu Xiyue?! Why are you here?" Wu Taotao was startled.

"Hm? What about me?" Chu Xiyue was confused, but she did not dwell on it and continued asking, "That Best Actor you mentioned earlier, the one who promotes a devoted-husband image...

Best Actor

was actually cheating on his assistant behind the scenes. Was that gossip true?"

Wu Taotao looked into Chu Xiyue's expectant eyes. Her dazzlingly beautiful face flashed before her, and she immediately forgot who stood before her. Her cheeks reddened slightly. "Th-that news is definitely true! Let me tell you, you would never guess who that Best Actor is. It's Guo Jingfeng, the one who spends all day promoting his devoted-husband image on Weibo! He'd been sleeping with his assistant all along. Not long ago, his wife caught him in bed with her older brother. His face was slapped so swollen that he ran out of the hotel room wearing nothing but underwear. If he hadn't borrowed a waiter's clothes afterward, Guo Jingfeng would definitely have made the headlines the next day!"

Chu Xiyue gave a wow. "Nicely done!"

"What happened later? Did they get divorced?"

"Guo Jingfeng had spent so many years promoting that devoted-husband image and enjoying the benefits it brought him, so of course he refused to divorce. They're currently going through divorce proceedings. Guo Jingfeng's wife was the one who asked me to expose this gossip. She said she wanted to ruin his reputation..."

Chu Xiyue agreed. "That's right. A scumbag like him should have his reputation completely ruined!"

Wu Taotao seemed to have found a kindred spirit. She grabbed Chu Xiyue's hand and shook it up and down. "Sister, you get me! Dogs like this, who market themselves as devoted husbands while secretly doing everything from drinking and whoring to gambling, should have their true faces exposed to the public. Let's see how they keep using their status to deceive and harm girls afterward."

Chu Xiyue glanced at Wu Taotao.

Wu Taotao lowered her voice and asked, "Sister, how did you find out about He Jinyuan and Wan Zhen's affair? Do you know something? Can you tell me? I promise I won't tell anyone else."

Everyone knew that people who said that usually ended up spreading the matter everywhere. Besides, Wu Taotao was a paparazzo. How could a paparazzo's words be trusted?

When Chu Xiyue remained silent, Wu Taotao assumed she did not want to talk. Remembering Chu Xiyue's earlier enthusiasm for gossip, she added something Chu Xiyue could not refuse. "I can tell you who boy band members A and B were, the ones who fought over affection."

Chu Xiyue: Oh no, this was the feeling of being tempted!

Although Chu Xiyue had bound the Gossip-Eating System, it had one restriction: the subjects of the gossip had to be people Chu Xiyue had met—because gossip about people she knew was tastier!

But that did not mean other gossip was not tasty.

"Who? Who are they?"

"They're both members of Azure Sea Entertainment's newly launched WED Boy Band. There are seven members in total. A is WED's captain, and B is the main dancer. Back in university, the two of them were even roommates."

Chu Xiyue: They had been roommates in school, and after graduation, they became teammates who fell for the same girl, even willing to become the other man for love?

Even more exciting!

After hearing the gossip, Chu Xiyue kept her promise and eagerly shared the untold stories between He Jinyuan and Wan Zhen with Wu Taotao: the thrilling Fourth Love in the hotel, their secret flirting right in front of the wife, and even the story of He Jinyuan and the red wine bottle.

Wu Taotao had only wanted to try digging into He Jinyuan's past through Chu Xiyue, but she had not expected to hear even more explosive gossip from her. Compared to that, the matter between He Jinyuan and Wan Zhen seemed rather dull.

Her eyes darted around as she asked Chu Xiyue, "Sister, do you have any evidence? I can buy it at a high price."

Chu Xiyue raised her brows but said nothing, and Wu Taotao understood. Chu Xiyue did not have any evidence.

That made sense. He Jinyuan was so cautious that many paparazzi did not even know about him and Wan Zhen. How could he possibly leave evidence behind so casually?

She took a deep breath and hugged the camera in her arms tightly. "No matter what, thank you for telling me about this."

"I'll truthfully post what I photographed tonight."

The villa was close by. Wu Taotao left with her camera, while Chu Xiyue entered the villa.

The system spoke at that moment:

[Wu Taotao once had a younger sister who was an artist under Azure Sea Entertainment. She got together with a male celebrity from the same company. That male celebrity was an expert at PUA. After her sister got together with him, she developed depression. Later, the male celebrity dumped Wu Taotao's sister. Heartbroken, she jumped from a building and could not be saved.] [To protect that male celebrity, Azure Sea Entertainment bought online trolls to slander Wu Taotao's deceased sister. Wu Taotao became a paparazzo because she wanted to clear her sister's name and ruin that male celebrity's reputation. She also wanted Azure Sea Entertainment to pay the price.]
