[R18] These men are poisonous – “These Men Are Poisonous” Chapter 63 [English]

Chapter 63 Scandal

Zuo Ning didn’t know until he arrived at the set the next morning that Gao Xia was on the front page of the news again.

Everyone in the crew was talking about this. She turned on her phone and saw that all the major platforms were pushing: Hu Yueting’s private meeting at Gaoxia Hotel, the long-standing relationship between sister and brother was finally revealed.

The accompanying picture is a photo of two people entering and exiting the same elevator in the same hotel. There is no photo together, but the media plausibly insists that there is an affair. The reason is that the two worked together in a movie four years ago and there were rumors of a scandal.

Gao Xia’s agent Ling Junping rarely showed up on the set, but he didn’t look good at all. He just kept circling: “Is there something wrong with Hu Yueting? Doesn’t she know that you are in that hotel? Why did she sneak up there dressed like that in the middle of the night? Does she still want to use you to stir up scandals?”

Gao Xia glanced at him: “She is a well-deserved movie queen. I am using her to stir up scandals, right?”

“That’s why I’m angry! This matter won’t do you any good at all. If it is clarified that you have nothing to do with her, the outside world will definitely think that we are using her for hype; if we don’t clarify and let things develop, what will others say about you? Look at how many fans you have lost and how many scolds you have received since the news came out until now. She is ten years older than you, a full ten years, and the news says that you are a pretty boy, and your fans can’t accept it at all!”

On the contrary, Gao Xia has always been calm: “If you can’t accept it, you can’t accept it. I don’t live by fans and online exposure? I only care about their opinions on my work and their evaluation of my acting skills. Nothing else matters.”

look at heWith such a look of not taking it seriously, the manager was even more anxious: “Without these fans, without this popularity and exposure, without the support of your good reputation of being dedicated and not promoting, do you think there would be so many good scripts for you to choose from?Skills alone are useless?There are a lot of people with acting skills these days.How many of them are there who don’t even know what shit they are about?Isn’t it just because of their faces and those fans that they are jumping on the screen every day?”

Gao Xia looked at he seriously: “If it depends on face, my face is not bad, don’t you think?”

“Pfft!” Qiu Yibai, who had been listening to the exchange between the two, finally couldn’t help laughing, and quickly comforted the manager who was about to explode. “Old Ling, don’t worry, this matter is not that serious. Gao Xia’s mass base is good. Just such a little news will not have much impact. Even if it does, aren’t there stars? Are you afraid that you can’t give Gao Xia good resources?”

Ling Junping let out a heavy breath, sat back on the sofa and said nothing.

Zuo Ning, who had been listening for a long time, then walked forward with a look of regret on his face: “Well… Hu Yueting went to the hotel to meet me last night. I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I didn’t expect there would be paparazzi guarding the hotel.”

The three men looked at her in surprise. Qiu Yibai said, “Do you know Hu Yueting?”

Zuo Ning bit his lip, but finally did not tell the truth: “I am a fan of her movies, and she is a fan of my books. We have contacted each other before, and the reason why we met in the hotel was because of her special identity. I didn’t expect…”

Qiu Yibai and Ling Junping both believed her rhetoric, but Gao Xia gave her a confused look, thoughtfully.

The outcome of the matter was naturally that Hu Yueting and Zuo Ning came out to speak out. According to Zuo Ning’s rhetoric, they showed that it was she who met at the hotel last night and had nothing to do with Gao Xia.

Some people believed it and scolded the media for making up rumors and making up topics at random; some people didn’t believe it and either questioned the crew for deliberately hyping it up or asking the crew for pulling Zuo Ning out of the way; some of Gao Xia’s fans settled old scores with Zuo Ning and scolded her for always lingering on, causing Gao Xia to frequently make news for personal matters.

Of course, no matter what, it was inevitable that Gao Xia would be scolded, either for being a hype man or for hanging out with an old woman who was ten years older than him.

In terms of qualifications, Gao Xia made her first movie at the age of nine and has been in the industry for seventeen years now. Hu Yueting has only been in the industry for ten years since she turned from a model. Gao Xia should be the senior.

But this circle has never been about that.Even in Zuo Ning’s opinion, Gao Xia’s acting skills and dialogue skills are much better than Hu Yueting’s, but Hu Yueting has won the highly valuable Best Actress Award, while Gao Xia has only been nominated for one Best Actor and two Best Actors. Judging from the trophies, doesn’t it mean that Hu Yueting’s status is higher than that of him?

Looking at Gao Xia, who had already dismissed his agent and continued filming seriously, Zuo Ning suddenly felt a little guilty.She was brave last night and met someone she had never wanted to see, but she didn’t think carefully enough and Gao Xia was shot for no apparent reason.

“You really don’t have to blame yourself, I don’t care about those things.” At some point, Gao Xia had stood beside her and comforted her in a low voice.

Zuo Ning looked up at this handsome face that drove countless movie fans crazy, and said slowly: “Actually, when you first nominated the Best Actor three years ago, I felt that the award belonged to you. Even if you missed it in the end, I still reserved my opinion. You have the ability to win the Best Actor and Best Actor, but you still have a little less luck. After all, the fight between male actors is more fierce than that of actresses.”

“Although I have heard this many times, I am still very happy to hear you say it.”

“I speak the truth. I have watched all the movies, TV series, plays, interviews and variety shows that you have participated in. Your acting skills have been improving all the time, and I also know that you really like acting and will study the character’s heart very carefully. There are not many young actors like you now. I believe that in time, the Grand Slam will be yours.”

After Zuo Ning finished speaking, he realized that Gao Xia was staring directly at her. That gaze made her a little uncomfortable. She was about to lower her head and escape, but she saw he curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled: “Don’t you know that the word “Grand Slam” is now a derogatory connotation?”

After understanding what he said, Zuo Ning couldn’t help but laugh out loud: “I was wrong, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said that. I should have said that sooner or later you will get your trophy. I have confidence in you.”

“Okay, just to tell you this, I will work hard and try to get you a trophy as soon as possible.”

“Give it to me?”

Gao Xia’s expression was condensed, but then he smiled and said: “Yes, aren’t you a fan of mine? Why not get a trophy for my fans? My fans have been looking forward to it just like you.”

Speaking of this, Zuo Ning suddenly laughed again: “I remember last year when you nominated the TV Emperor, fans kept calling for you to post nude photos if you won the award. You actually agreed. Fortunately, you didn’t win the award, otherwise how would you end up?”

Gao Xia smiled and shook his head: “It seems you are really not a fan of mine.”

Zuo Ning was stunned and didn’t react: “What do you mean?”

“Because my fans all know that the so-called naked photos of me are stills from the children’s drama I filmed when I was nine years old. Isn’t there a bathing scene in it? All of us were naked when we left the country. The camera filmed our backs for a full five minutes, but only three seconds were deleted. I still have the photos now. That’s what they want.”

“Is that… the scene where you secretly go swimming in the river? I remember that episode, and you were chased and beaten by adults later on, right? It’s so funny!”

Seeing Zuo Ning smiling so hard that his eyes were bent into slits, Gao Xia’s smile became even thicker and his eyes were full of tenderness.

When Yu Haonan arrived at the set, he saw such a dazzling scene.
