Below the gossip article were a few particularly blurry photos, clearly taken from outside Xia Duoduo’s window.

The silhouettes of two entangled figures were reflected on the white gauze curtains; you couldn’t tell who they were unless someone told you.

There were also two photos showing Jin Xu leaving hastily in the morning.

Because Jin Xu had an early commitment, he didn’t want to wake Duoduo and left quietly. His baseball cap and mask were tightly worn, but the paparazzi’s eyes are sharp, and they could still recognize him.

Next, scrolling down to the comments:

"Who is this C-list celeb, trying to piggyback off our Xubao’s fame to shoot up? What a scheming bitch! Go disappear somewhere..."

"Xubao, come out and clarify immediately, we all believe you’re being maliciously tied up! You’re our hubby, no one’s stealing you away!"

"Demanding that Xia the scheming bitch get out of showbiz!"

...

Since Xia Duoduo stepped into the entertainment industry, she was frequently bashed until she was broken. Seeing the comments under the gossip all supporting Jin Xu and calling her a schemer, saying she’s not upset would be a lie.

But she couldn’t control others’ mouths, she could only guard her own heart.

Over the years, she’s gone from a naive C-lister to a seasoned one, her ability to endure has improved.

Overall, waking up to hot topics isn’t such a particularly bad thing.

Xia Duoduo simply placed her phone face down on the table and concentrated on eating breakfast. But in less than ten minutes, her phone started vibrating incessantly.

She picked it up and saw it was her little assistant, An An, calling. Probably another rant about her not being careful enough and getting caught by the paparazzi.

"Hey, An An..." Xia Duoduo mumbled casually with a piece of toast in her mouth.

"Sister Xia, it’s unbelievable!" The voice on the other end of the line was frantic: "The company just informed me that several advertisers want to talk to you about endorsements!"

Xia Duoduo just took a sip of milk and almost spat it out in surprise: "What did you say?"

"Sister Xia, you’re really going to blow up this time!" An An couldn’t contain her excitement, "You’re the official girlfriend of a national idol, of course those advertisers can’t wait to gain some fame through you."

"Wait—" Xia Duoduo got more confused the more she listened, the posts on Weibo were at most just gossip news, neither she nor Jin Xu had said anything, so how did these advertisers jump to conclusions?

"An An, I’ve discussed this with Jin Xu and we don’t want to go public, let alone gain fame through him. Tell the company, I won’t accept a single advertiser."

Xia Duoduo’s principles were still solid, and she stated this with righteousness.

An An was stunned for two seconds before reacting, "No, Sister Xia, you didn’t know? Just a few minutes ago, Jin Xu made your relationship public. Check his Weibo if you don’t believe me..."

What?

Xia Duoduo was completely frozen there, she couldn’t hear anything An An said anymore.

Her fingers quickly tapped open Weibo, heading to Jin Xu’s page.

The top post on Weibo, barely ten minutes old, already had tens of thousands of comments.

She had just been focusing on the gossip news, not noticing this post! Jin Xu’s Weibo was straightforward with its photo and caption: Let me introduce, this is my girlfriend @Xia Duoduo.

The picture showed them in Britain by the Thames River, embracing each other as they watched the sunset, beautiful and romantic.

Xia Duoduo was utterly dumbfounded.

How could Jin Xu make it official so directly? With his tens of millions of fans, wouldn’t they tear her to pieces!
