The Villain Just Wants to be a Salted Fish

At four o'clock in the morning, Li Changjian and a staff member knocked on Ye Zexi's door and woke Ye Zexi who was still asleep.

Under Li Changjian's explanation, Ye Zexi was confused, and asked a little uncertainly: "I'm on the hot search?"

Li Changjian nodded worriedly.

"With Tang Jing?" Ye Zexi's eyes were filled with confusion.

Li Changjian nodded again.

The assistant next to Li Changjian handed the phone to Ye Zexi, and Ye Zexi took a look. His name and Tang Jing's name were on the fifth most searched hashtag.

Following the hot search was a link to a video. The two people in the video are Ye Zexi and Tang Jing. Ye Zexi looked at the familiar scene. Wasn't this where Tang Jing stopped Ye Zexi in the corridor today?

It was just that there were no other people in the corridor except him and Tang Jing. Who made this video?

Li Changjian always treats Ye Zexi as his own son, and the program team would definitely not post this kind of video on the internet.

So who would it be?

Tang Jing?

Not possible: if this video got released, Tang Jing could use this opportunity to act as a victim to gain everyone's pity; however, for a newcomer who has just debuted, he would be labeled as gay, which is not conducive to future development.

It will be just a temporary popularity, the gain is not worth the loss.

Then——

Li Changjian brought his assistant to Ye Zexi in the middle of the night, then he must have found something.　　

Ye Zexi raised his eyes to look at Li Changjian in front of him: "What does Uncle Li think?"

Sure enough, Li Changjian looked at Ye Zexi when he heard the boy ask, his eyes were very guilty: "Zexi, this matter is due to uncle's inadequate supervision."

As soon as the news came out on the Internet, Li Changjian was the first to get the notification. As soon as the staff of "Time Idol" finished their work, they were called to stay behind to have a thorough investigation of the matter.

Finally, half an hour ago, they found the employee who sent the video to the marketing account.

Li Changjian just came to wake Ye Zexi, wanting to ask his opinion.

"I know Tang Jing's personality very well. This matter has nothing to do with him and his team. When the video went viral, he also actively expressed his willingness to cooperate to clarify. I mean, the program team has issued a statement saying that it was just a sitcom rehearsal, you and Tang Jing do not need to respond to that. Tang Jing has already agreed, what do you think?" Li Changjian added.

Ye Zexi didn't speak, instead he read through the comments on Weibo.

"Time Idol" just released its first rehearsal video on the internet. Someone even pointed out Ye Zexi was just lip-syncing in the comments. Now with such a video, all netizens have started to mock Ye Zexi.

More people claimed to be the program staff, confirming that Ye Zexi came to participate in "Time Idol" to chase Tang Jing.

In a short time, the topic got more and more attention from netizens.

Even Ye Zexi's background was being dug up, saying that he was the prince of Starlight Entertainment, and had long been attracted to Tang Jing; and, the two had known each other for a long time.

False is also true, while true is also false. Many people who like to read about entertainment gossip took that information seriously.

The ones that dislike this the most are Tang Jing's fans. They do not like that Ye Zexi might drag Tang Jing's result down with his performance. Now that Ye Zexi is still so shamelessly pestering Tang Jing, fans begin to post hate comments on Weibo.

Generally speaking, most public opinion on the Internet is biased towards Tang Jing, and very few people help Ye Zexi speak.　　

Netizens' comments were even more vicious, such as "scumbag dog" and "disgusting gay". Some people even commented that Ye Zexi was just lip-syncing in the rehearsal, which means "Time Idol" does not have many good talents, and expressed that they would not waste their money on it.

"Zexi?" Seeing that Ye Zexi hadn't spoken for a long time, Li Changjian was a little worried, "Don't read the comments, and don't take online opinions to heart, don't let it affect your performance today..."

Ye Zexi curved up the corners of his mouth when he heard the other speak, and smiled: "Uncle, don't worry, I won't take it to heart."

After so many years in the entertainment industry, Ye Zexi has seen too many abuses and accusations. The comments he saw today are not so horrible.

Li Changjian was still not at ease: "I think you can just leave it alone and leave it to me to deal with it. Nowadays, netizens are all like this, saying white is black. A clarification statement will be issued later..."

"No need, Uncle." Ye Zexi interrupted Li Changjian, and returned the phone to the assistant. "It's the truth, so I don't need to clarify."

Li Changjian was anxious when he heard these words: "How can you say this! You haven't made your debut yet, and netizens have already had such a bad opinion of you like this. What would happen after you make your debut?"

Ye Zexi blinked. He didn't say that he isn't going to debut at all. He just said: "I have my own solution, Uncle, don't worry about me. It's still early, you should go back and rest for a while."

Li Changjian would not let go that easily, right?

But in the next half an hour, no matter what he said or suggested, Ye Zexi just didn't want to clarify. He just insisted that he had a way and told Li Changjian not to worry, and asked him to go back to rest earlier.

How he could sleep!

Anxious to death!

Ye Zexi looked at him being all anxious, knowing that he was worried about him, and felt a little warm. He thought for a moment and said, "In this case, why don't you help me with this request, Uncle."

Li Changjian was curious: "What kind of request? Just tell me!"

Ye Zexi raised his eyebrows and slowly said his request.

After listening to the request, Li Changjian's eyes were full of disapproval, but Ye Zexi said first: "Uncle, trust me, I will take care of it."

Ye Zexi insisted on this, so Li Changjian had no choice but to compromise.

Before leaving, Li Changjian glanced at Ye Zexi. Ye Zexi's face was obviously a little paler than before. His beautiful eyes had some tears in them, and even the corners of his eyes were red. Li Changjian's chest got tightened up at seeing the boy like this.

He still said he is okay!

Even his eyes are red. Is he really okay?

Li Changjian could not control the netizens on the Internet, but he must teach that traitor a lesson!
