Chapter 280 The Murder Scene in the Entertainment Industry 22
Jiexin's agency certainly wants Qixin to make money for them. If Qixin is willing to take on more roles, then Jiexin is also willing to give her more money.

Moreover, Jiexin herself lacked experience, and the plans she made for Qixin were not suitable for her.

Therefore, she is now only a second-rate star.

In the entertainment industry, a celebrity's number of fans often indicates their status or influence.

Of course, this excludes those actors who focus solely on their acting skills and completely ignore any news.

Qi Xin's previous 60 million followers weren't a lot, but they weren't few either.

The recent pairing of Qi Xin and Jiang Heng as a couple helped her gain over three million followers.

Some of these fans even created several related hashtags.

However, the theme of the super topic has now completely changed.

The original phrases "Eternal Fragrance" and "Perseverance is Everlasting Fragrance" have been replaced by "Qi Xin the Liar," "Qi Xin the Murderer," and "Qi Xin, Get Out of the Entertainment Industry."

Yu Muhuai remained calm as the topic turned into a blatant anti-fan camp, only feeling a little hungry.

Some people were so indignant that they photoshopped Qi Xin's picture into black and white, making it look like a funeral photo, and some even added wreaths around it.

Even more outrageous, some people photoshopped Qi Xin and Jiang Heng's faces onto the heads of an old wedding photo of a bride and groom.

The photo is somewhat yellowed, and the two people are wearing old-fashioned formal attire. Strangely, the feet of the newlyweds in the photo are dangling in the air.

This is clearly something that exists in some feudal and superstitious places—marrying the dead.

Those people online are cursing Qi Xin to die, wishing her and Jiang Heng would die together and have their wedding in the afterlife.

It must be said that some netizens, when they get ruthless, can be so vicious as to be outrageous.

Yu Muhuai looked at these negative comments and let out a soft "tsk".

She was simply surprised, because in this life she had clearly cleared her name. She had even accomplished the first mission, yet the outside world was still spreading such baseless rumors.

It really costs nothing to just say a few words.

However, although Task 1 was completed, Task 2 still showed 0/1.

It seems that we need to wait for the court to convict Zheng Zihao before we can say that the real culprit has been found.

Just as Yu Muhuai was browsing the web, her doorbell rang.

When the door opened, it was Sister Jing, Qi Xin's former personal assistant, who had always taken care of her daily life.

"Xiao Qi, it's already past eleven o'clock. I brought some breakfast and lunch. What would you like to eat?"

"Thank you, Sister Jing."

As soon as he saw the steaming food, Yu Muhuai's stomach started growling.

Jingjie sat at the other end of the dining table, watching Yu Muhuai eat, while she herself looked preoccupied.

After Yu Muhuai had almost finished eating, Sister Jing cautiously asked, "Xiao Qi, how are you feeling right now?"

Yu Muhuai gave a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Sister Jing, I'm fine. It's normal for artists to encounter this kind of thing. I'll go to the company after I finish eating and discuss with them how to handle the aftermath."

Jingjie was speechless. Of course she knew that celebrities faced a lot of online abuse every day, but this time was completely different.

This time, someone has died.

However, she dared not say it aloud, as she did not want to put too much pressure on the person involved.

After finishing his meal, Yu Muhuai tidied up.

In late spring and early summer, the weather is already quite hot during the day, but as an artist, you need to be careful about sun protection at all times.

The long-sleeved jumpsuit with a shirt-style design features a small V-neck that reveals delicate collarbones, and a wide belt that accentuates a slim waist and long legs.

She wore sneakers, a baseball cap, and sunglasses, giving her a more casual and relaxed look. Her hair, freshly washed that morning, was exceptionally smooth and casually draped over her shoulders.

Jingjie was driving, and Yu Muhuai was sitting in the back seat.

As I left the residential compound, I could see from afar that there were many reporters with cameras looking around.

Yu Muhuai only glanced around a few times before noticing several long-zoom DSLR cameras protruding from cars around the neighborhood. Because many celebrities live here, there are usually paparazzi in the area, but never as many as today.

Yu Muhuai's car was very conspicuous, and the paparazzi immediately surrounded it and followed Yu Muhuai in a flash.

Sister Jing noticed it too, "Xiao Qi."

"Let them be," Yu Muhuai waved his hand dismissively. "You drive carefully and be safe."

Sister Jing agreed.

More than an hour later, the two arrived at Jiexin's agency.

Over the past decade, Jiexin's agency has moved to many different locations.

This location is excellent; we just moved here last year.

Although the quality of Qi Xin's films in recent years has been so-so, she has made a lot of films and earned a lot of money for the company.

As one of the top female executives at Jiexin Entertainment, Yu Muhuai went directly to the boss's office without giving any prior notice.

Jiexin's boss is 45 years old this year, and everyone usually calls him Brother Hao.

When he arrived at the company, Hao Ge, who was always all smiles, now looked worried.

He was staring at the computer screen, and even when Yu Muhuai entered the office, he only glanced at him briefly.

Even if Brother Hao didn't say anything, Yu Muhuai knew why he was so troubled.

This morning, Yu Muhuai casually checked the stock price of Jiexin Company.

It has already hit the daily limit down.

This is the lowest value ever recorded by Jexin.

No wonder Brother Hao was anxious.

Yu Muhuai felt that he looked much more haggard that night.

Only after Yu Muhuai sat down opposite Brother Hao did he take a closer look at him.

"Xiao Xin, you seem to be in pretty good spirits."

Yu Muhuai smiled politely, "It was alright, mainly because I slept well last night."

Hao pursed his lips, thinking, "I didn't sleep well," but he didn't say it aloud.

"As long as you sleep well, that's fine. I've already heard about this case from Attorney Huang. We all know that the possibility of you being the murderer has been basically ruled out, but it's difficult to explain to the netizens right now."

Public opinion is now overwhelmingly against you, with many suspecting you were the culprit. Of course, this is easily resolved; we just need to wait for the police report.

but"

At this point, Brother Hao let out a long sigh.

Yu Muhuai didn't speak, he just sat there, looking like he was waiting for what was to come.

"Xiao Xin, you know, sometimes netizens have already formed an opinion in their minds, and even if there is evidence in front of them, they may not be willing to believe it."

Moreover, this case involves two lives, which is of great importance. All those involved are public figures, and no one can be completely cleared of suspicion until the murderer is fully convicted.

"This bucket of dirty water has been poured on your head; who knows when it will be washed away."

Yu Muhuai shrugged and said nonchalantly, "It's alright. The innocent will clear themselves. As long as I'm not the one who ends up in jail, that's fine."

It has been exactly 30 days since it was put on the shelves.

I achieved 10,000 units per day for 30 days straight!
I'll update 6000 words today and tomorrow, then take a short break.

After that, the daily rate was restored to 10,000.
