"Brother Lu, this is the last box. I just saw Driver Liu waiting for you outside," a stagehand whispered to Lu Zhihang as he walked past with a cardboard box in his arms.
Lu Zhihang turned to look outside and sure enough saw the familiar nanny car. He turned back to the stagehand, politely thanked him, then walked towards the center of the film set to start the last scene of the night.
This scene was shot quickly. Although there were two NG takes, it was finally passed.
After the shooting, Lu Zhihang quickly took off his makeup and got into the nanny car.

On the other side, it was already late. Lin Wan quit the game. Just as she got out of bed and picked up her toiletries, she heard a shrill scream from Ye Zi in the next bed.
She was startled and quickly hopped over. "What's wrong? What happened to you?!"
Ye Zi was hugging a life - sized pillow of Lu Zhihang on her bed. With tears in her eyes, she bit the pillow's head and gritted her teeth ferociously. Anyone who didn't know would think she was a black fan...
"My Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu... Wuwuwu... Mr. Lu!" Ye Zi sobbed for a while before wailing, "He had a late - night rendezvous with his girlfriend!"
Lin Wan: …?
Probably thinking that Lin Wan didn't understand, Ye Zi kindly showed her phone to Lin Wan.
Lin Wan was a bit stunned and took a look at the phone screen.
There was a prominent bold - faced title on the screen.
A - list star Lu Zhihang was seen walking with a mysterious woman late at night in an intimate manner. Is his underground romance exposed?
There were pictures and a video below the title. In the video, a man wearing a black mask was carrying a girl on his back on the street. His eyes were curved, showing that he was in a very good mood.
Lin Wan watched for a while. A strange sense of familiarity flashed through her mind. Why did she always feel that these sceneries were so familiar? It was as if she had seen them somewhere before...
"Wow!!!" Before Lin Wan could figure it out, another ear - splitting scream pierced her eardrums.
Lin Wan quickly covered her ears and said helplessly, "Okay, okay, okay. It's just a piece of gossip. What era is it now? How can you still believe such news? Don't you know that nine out of ten news stories are fake, and the other one is extremely fake?"
Hearing Lin Wan's words, Ye Zi's wailing gradually subsided. She looked at Lin Wan with teary eyes. "Really?"
"Really, really!" Lin Wan ruffled Ye Zi's hair and comforted her casually. Then she turned around and walked into the bathroom, leaving that sense of familiarity behind.

On the other side, Lu Zhihang slammed the car door shut, waved to the driver uncle, gave a brief instruction, and then turned into the building entrance.
When he got home and just put down his keys before he could say anything, he heard his phone ring.
He glanced at the caller ID, slowly changed his slippers, shuffled into the bedroom, and answered the phone at the last second before the ringing stopped. He also sat in front of the computer.
"Lu Zhihang!!!" Wang Wei's roar came from the receiver, so shrill that it seemed even the people downstairs could hear it.
Lu Zhihang quickly moved the phone away and lazily grunted in response.
"Did you deal with Zuo Yang today?!" Wang Wei screamed.
Lu Zhihang was stunned for a moment, frowned, and softly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Do you know that you were secretly photographed? Was there anyone else in your dressing room at that time?!" Wang Wei asked.
Hearing this, Lu Zhihang thought for a while and shook his head. "No, it was just Zuo Yang and me. That guy can't talk properly. He was being sarcastic, and I got annoyed, so I told him to get out."
"I've been nagging you every day not to cause trouble. As soon as I'm not watching you, do you have to get yourself on the hot search?!"
At this point, Lu Zhihang also sensed something was wrong. He squinted his eyes and said, "That bastard set me up?"
"Not only did he set you up, he wants to kill your career. Go and see for yourself. You're really good at getting yourself on the hot search!" Wang Wei angrily hung up the phone.
Lu Zhihang frowned and opened Weibo.
Sure enough, as Wang Wei expected, the top - trending Weibo was about him.
[The A - list star surnamed Lu acts arrogantly on the film set, mocks senior actors, and has low moral standards!]
Lu Zhihang squinted his eyes and clicked on this hot search. There was an audio plugin and a video in the hot - search post.
After listening to the audio, Lu Zhihang's face darkened slightly. These were the conversations between him and Zuo Yang in the dressing room. It was obviously edited to highlight his sarcasm, while Zuo Yang's words were blurred. As a result, all the blame was now on Lu Zhihang.
The video was the scene when he was filming on the set and had an NG due to his bad mood. Originally, this scene was nothing special, but if it was placed after the audio, the tension was obvious. Lu Zhihang didn't even need to think to know what the comments below would be like.
Sure enough -
First floor: [Picture comment] I have to say that some stars forget who they are as soon as they gain a little fame!
Second floor: Is this star surnamed Lu Lu Zhihang, that green - tea guy? Haha, I've disliked such people for a long time. Relying on a bunch of crazy female fans, he's getting arrogant. He looks disgusting.
Third floor: Is Lu Zhihang actually such a person? So disgusting. I used to like him so much. I'm so disgusted. I'm definitely turning from a fan to a black fan!
Fourth floor: Boycott all of Lu Zhihang's TV dramas and advertisements. I won't watch or buy anything with Lu Zhihang in it!
Fifth floor: Are you guys stupid? Can't you hear the editing in the audio? We don't even know who's in the wrong. Being a keyboard warrior doesn't require criminal liability, right?
Sixth floor: What the person above said is right. Let me give you some knowledge - Article 221 of the Criminal Law of our country stipulates that fabricating and spreading false facts to damage the business reputation and product reputation of others, causing heavy losses or other serious circumstances, constitutes the crime of damaging business reputation and product reputation. Article 264 of the Criminal Law stipulates that fabricating facts to slander others, if the circumstances are serious, constitutes the crime of slander.

Lu Zhihang didn't pay attention to those online comments. He never really cared about such things.
But for Zuo Yang, Lu Zhihang completely lost his good impression. He squinted his eyes, and a cold glint flashed in them.
Spreading rumors even before leaving the crew?
Let's see who can outplay whom!
After closing this hot search, Lu Zhihang's eyes swept across the screen, and his pupils suddenly shrank. He saw the one below his hot search.
"Lu Zhihang is suspected of having a late - night rendezvous with his girlfriend?"
Lu Zhihang's heart tightened. He quickly opened this hot search. After skimming through the content roughly, his gaze fixed on the comments below.
First floor: Is there really someone blind enough to fall for a guy like Lu Zhihang in this world?
Second floor: What do you mean by that, the person above? What's wrong with Mr. Lu? It's obvious that someone is trying to harm him in the crew incident! It's clearly that woman who seduced our Mr. Lu!
Third floor: Exactly. It's all that woman's fault! Can someone dig out information about this woman?
Fourth floor: This woman looks like a gold - digger. She looks disgusting!
...
Looking at these comments, Lu Zhihang's face immediately turned black. His fingers trembled slightly on the screen!
They could scold him, but daring to scold Lin Wan... They were asking for death!
