Chapter 837: Clarification
The moment the photos and the news report came out, news about Gu Huanhuan spread all over town.
However, Wen Chi didn’t know about it because he didn’t care about or pay attention to gossip.
He only found out when his colleague, Yu Li, came to find him.
Yu Li had a photographic memory, especially when it came to women around Wen Chi.
She went to Wen Chi’s office during her break and hesitated for a moment when she saw that he was busy.
“What’s up?” Wen Chi didn’t like having people wander around him like that.
“Um, have you seen the entertainment news? The girl mentioned in the article looks like the girl who came to your office last time…” Yu Li looked tentatively at Wen Chi.
But Wen Chi kept his expression. “I never pay attention to entertainment news, so I don’t know what you are talking about.”
Wen Chi’s indifferent tone depressed Yu Li a little.
“Oh? Then maybe I’m mistaken.” Yu Li said apologetically.
But how could Yu Li be mistaken? She had met that girl when she came to the hospital last time. She had actually paid special attention then because the girl seemed close to Wen Chi.
She even thought that the girl was Wen Chi’s girlfriend! But today’s news report said that she was a celebrity. Yu Li became doubtful again.
How could Wen Chi have a celebrity girlfriend? That was why she came to his office to find out, but Wen Chi did not want to tell her anything.
“If there’s nothing else, please close the door on your way out.” Wen Chi said casually. How could a smart person like Yu Li not know when she was asked to leave?
She could only close the door awkwardly on her way out.
The moment the door closed, Wen Chi took out his phone. He had a bad feeling.
As Yu Li had met Huanhuan before, he suspected that she was talking about Huanhuan.
After much difficulty, Wen Chi found the entertainment news report and saw the familiar scene. As Huanhuan was currently filming a movie by Director Guan, the article had received a lot of attention.
The photos in the news article were taken when he sent Huanhuan to the studio that morning. However, because his car windows were tinted, his face couldn’t be seen clearly. Moreover, they weren’t doing anything indecent, so the report was just speculation without any real evidence.
Wen Chi heaved a sigh of relief. He thought that he had caused trouble for Gu Huanhuan.
He was still very worried though. So, he dialed Gu Huanhuan’s number right away and his call was picked up very quickly.
“Huanhuan, what happened? Have we been spotted by paparazzi?” Wen Chi was not very sure.
“Yeah, it was probably a coincidence that they got those photos of us, but it’s okay. They’re just guessing. My management company will handle it.” Gu Huanhuan was actually more worried that he will be affected.
“Good, good. I’m fine. I’m just glad that I didn’t cause you any trouble. We’ll have to be more careful in the future.” Wen Chi frowned. For the first time, he realized that there was absolutely no privacy when dating a celebrity.
“Yeah. We might not be able to meet for the time being though.” Gu Huanhuan said apologetically.
Wen Chi had no choice but to agree.
“Then you must compensate me in the future.” Wen Chi joked.
Gu Huanhuan felt her face burn. Fortunately, they were just talking over the phone.
There was no doubt about Sister Gao’s professional competence. Soon, a very official press release was published.
It explained that the person in the photo was Gu Huanhuan’s brother. As she was in a hurry, they didn’t bother the family chauffeur.
There was nothing out of the ordinary in the photos. Moreover, there had been very few scandals about Huanhuan. Basically, everyone believed the press release.
Phew!
They had finally passed the hurdle. Gu Huanhuan wasn’t too worried about being found out because she would make their relationship public eventually. But because filming had just started for her new show, no one knew how the audience would react to news about her having a boyfriend. Furthermore, this happened so suddenly that she didn’t really know how to handle it.
