She quickly grabbed him by the neck and slipped away, saying, "Stop talking nonsense, you'll know everything when we get to the police station."
Chen Cheng fell silent instantly, like a porcelain doll being forced to walk outside.
The moment he got into the police car, Captain Liu finally let out a long sigh of relief. Luckily, he had prepared gags in advance, so this madman couldn't really go crazy even if he wanted to. Today's performance was a breeze.
The whole absurd farce only truly ended after the police took Chen Cheng away.
Song Yurou was completely stunned. What had happened in less than an hour?
Feng Ziyi was sent to a mental hospital, Chen Cheng was arrested by the police, while Song Shiwei and Lin Jia were unharmed. Lin Jia even became the president of Hongwei Investment Company, successfully reaching the pinnacle of her life with everyone's support.
What she never expected was that Chen Cheng's true identity was actually a human-demon hybrid, and that his pregnancy was a lie.
No wonder she felt a very strange feeling when she first met him. She couldn't put her finger on it before, but now she finally understood what was wrong. It would be truly strange if a human or a demon could be a normal person.
The system didn't even tell her such important information, instead letting a doctor expose it in front of everyone.
Her flawless plan had already ended before it even began—how could that be?
She clenched her fists tightly. Everything that had happened today was completely different from the information the system had given her and the reactions of those people.
The situation took a very wrong turn from the very beginning. The system must have given her false information. What's wrong with the system? Does it also want to see her make a fool of herself?
She angrily said to the system in her mind, "System, are you out of your mind and trying to fool me with fake news?"
"Why is what happened today completely different from what you said? Not a single thing matches up."
[Host, rest assured my information is absolutely accurate. I'm also puzzled as to why these NPCs suddenly became uncontrollable. It seems they developed their own consciousness in a very short time. Our system usually calls this the awakening of small-world NPCs.] The system's mechanical electronic voice also carried a sense of bewilderment.
Song Yurou:?
She clenched her fists tightly and shouted excitedly, "You're a system and you don't know that? Then what kind of system are you?"
"The information you gave me was uncertain. Are you trying to drive me crazy? If I hadn't wanted to sit back and watch the fight unfold, I would be dead by now."
The system was also speechless, saying, "[I'm just Star-Making Viral Fame System; I don't know everything, and there are some things I can't control.]"
[Since you don't trust me, I'm logging off. Don't call me unless it's absolutely necessary. Your rise to fame is progressing very slowly and can no longer meet my daily needs. I'm going into hibernation. Goodbye.]
After finishing speaking, the system shut down and logged off without letting Song Yurou say another word.
Song Yurou, already in a difficult situation:??
No, this lunatic caused this catastrophic disaster, and now he's just walked away, leaving her to clean up the mess?
She could feel almost everyone's eyes on her. She forced a smile, stood up under everyone's gaze, and started to walk outside. "Um, I'm going to the restroom. My stomach hasn't been feeling too well lately."
Song Yurou came up with a particularly lame excuse and fled the press conference hall under everyone's gaze.
The moment she stepped outside, she saw Song Shiwei being fed by Jiang Xun. She clenched her fists, the jealousy in her heart almost consuming her.
Everything Song Shiwei has now should have been hers.
She had just posted something online when her agent called. She quickly answered, and her agent's furious voice immediately came through, "Song Yurou, what trouble have you caused today? What exactly is your relationship with that person, that demon Chen Cheng?"
"Do you know that the two important roles I worked so hard to get for you were canceled because of this news? They all called to say you don't need to go to the auditions anymore?"
"And the leading lady you agreed to date is gone too."
Song Yurou's brow twitched violently. She quickly opened her system control panel and checked her critical status, which was only 56%, already below the latest warning line.
She recalled her most glorious moment, when her popularity had reached 89%, and she had become a second-tier actress. At that time, Song Shiwei was still an object of dislike by everyone.
She suddenly realized something: it seemed that the more people disliked Song Shiwei, the higher her popularity would be. As she thought about it, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Song Shiwei can gain popularity points even when she's being criticized, then that's really interesting.
How could someone in the entertainment industry not have any scandals? If not, then create them. As long as she's jealous enough, Song Shiwei will eventually be caught off guard and suffer a major setback.
She's known as Sister Song Gua, so let her enjoy all the perks of Sister Song Gua.
Song Yurou ran outside as if fleeing, looking like a vicious rat, but the things she was thinking made her seem like a dark and stinking rat.

The press conference for the listing of Hongwei Investment Limited Company. was held as planned, but in the end, the farce of announcing his engagement to his white moonlight in front of all shareholders was not mentioned.
Instead, Lin Jia announced in front of all the shareholders that Feng Ziyi had resigned as chairman due to some mental illness, and that she would be in charge of managing the company from now on.
She spoke eloquently at the press conference, her expression calm and sharp. Although she wore a rather simple floral cotton dress, she still won a standing ovation.
