My Evil Genius Wife

Xu Nuan frowned seeing Wang Meili's attitude and checked the video that she was dying to show her. She looked at the post that looked like an article by some media outlet but before reading the article, she clicked on the video. 

She already had a hunch but seeing the video she confirmed the reason why Wang Meili was acting like a fish who was forced to stay on the surface. It was the video about her and Han Liang where they were casually talking after the interview. It was posted as the behind scenes of the upcoming episode of the show which is going to broadcast next week.

Xu Nuan was speechless seeing how hard they are working. It's not been that long since they gave that interview and they already released the videos of it? Not only that, the captions used in the video are too suggestive and misleading.

In the video, Han Liang was staring at her with a smile while she was hitting his arm making him wince in pain jokingly. She looked at the caption in disbelief that said, " Only you are allowed to hit me!" It was written and they keep focusing on Han Liang's face to show him laughing cheerily. 

The blush that they put on both faces made her frown. She was laughing but it seems like she was blushing due to that pink blusher. Are they crazy? She cringed at their editing. 

Not only that, when she scrolled down she found out more videos released by the broadcasting channel. They released a short video about her mentioning being childhood friends with Han Liang and also where she was singing and Han Liang barged into the room. 

All the clips were edited in a way that could make other people misunderstand their relationship. 

Wang Meili pursed her lips and looked at Xu Nuan watching the video. She could feel the anger boiling inside her. These videos are going viral all thanks to the great superstar Han Liang and not only that, Xu Nuan's identity as an artist manager was spreading like a fire. 

The announcement post about the "The Knights" was also going viral because Han Liang had liked that post last night. At first, the fans were shocked and were wondering why he suddenly liked a post about a girl group that hasn't even debuted yet. 

The comments at this moment were not positive but Wang Meili knows the impact of negative publicity very well. Negative publicity is better than no publicity and that is the case here. She has seen many idols becoming famous because of their negative publicity because negative news tends to be discussed more than positive ones. 

The likes and comments on that post were flooding while the people kept sharing the post, which made Wang Meili upset that Xu Nuan's girls might win using these petty tricks. 

" Xu Nuan, I never thought that you would use this kind of cheap trick. If you can't make your group win with their talent, you decided to use a petty trick like this? SHAMELESS!!"

" I thought you were ambitious and immature but I never imagined that you're so sly and scheming. To win your bet, you used your girls and connections to make a fanbase for your girls? Do you think that this is gonna make your girls famous?" Wang Meili shook her head in disappointment. 

She eyed Xu Nuan who was still reading the article on her phone, ignoring her words. 

" Are you even listening to me?" she shouted at her but failed to get any reaction. 

Xu Nuan smirked when she checked the real-time searches which were like this- ' Han Liang', ' Childhood Sweethearts', ' Manager', ' Xu Nuan', ' The Knights'. Her lips curled up in a satisfied smile seeing 'The knights' in the real-time searches. 

They might be searching about the group because of this controversy but it was enough to pique their interest in the girls. Although there were most of the negative comments about her and Han Liang's speculated relationship, she believed that things were going to be fine after the episode was released. 

After reading the articles, she looked up at Wang Meili and handed her phone to her, " Thanks for telling me about this.. If not for you, I wouldn't have found out about this earlier." she said casually.

" What? That's it? You don't have anything else to say?" Wang Meili asked in confusion.

" What do you want me to say? Ah, about the cheating or dirty play?" Xu Nuan said with her crossed in front of her chest.

She smiled suggestively and said, " Well, Ms. Wang, if this is me playing dirty then what do you want to say about your actions? It was you used your connections and the other idols and artists to share your post and congratulate them for their new start. If you had wanted to play fair then you shouldn't have done that."

" It's not like they wanted to share them but they did that because you asked them, using her connections. Did I complain about it?" she asked while looking at her coldly. 

" However, you're calling me coward or cheater and whatnot for the things which I didn't even do. These media outlets are only stretching the thing for no reason but I don't know why I have to hear your accusations? Don't you think that you should control yourself and not show your hypocritical behavior to everyone?" Xu Nuan asked while smirking, leaning close to her. 

" If you can't help in solving this scandal then don't spout nonsense to me without knowing the whole story. I might be your junior but I am not a pushover. I have nothing to hide nor I have to feel scared of you. You're not the one who is paying me anyway. So just focus on promoting your group, I will take care of mine." Xu Nuan looked into her eyes, making Wang Meili clench her fists in anger.

Han Zihao who was working in his office, while trying to not keep thinking about what happened last night or in the morning. He was in his thoughts when Feng Sheng came hurriedly while panting. 

" Sir, Sir...you have to check this." He said while passing him a table while trying to catch his breath. 

Han Zihao frowned and took the table and said, " What is so important that you didn't even knock on the door? If it turns out to be some stupid news then I am- 

He stopped speaking when he saw the article about Han Liang and Xu Nuan with their photo on the top. 

[NATION'S PRINCE IS NOW NOT SINGLE ANYMORE?]

[ HAN LIANG ENGAGED WITH AN ARTIST MANAGER?]

[ SUPERSTAR HAN LIANG CAUGHT DATING HIS CHILDHOOD SWEETHEART?] 

He frowned seeing the ambitious headlines of the article with Han Liang and Xu Nuan's picture in which Xu Nuan was giving an interview while Han Liang was looking at her with his surprised expressions. 

For him, he was shocked but for others, the pictures can be interpreted as a surprise and romantic with the way he was gazing at her. 

He pursed his lips and looked at the videos posted by the broadcasting station and his expressions darkened seeing the ambitious editing. Feng Sheng gulped seeing his grim expressions and death aura that was hovering around him. 

When he first saw this news he was shocked as well. The editing, comments, and posts were very suggestive and easy to be misunderstood. If he wouldn't have known about the thing going on between Han Zihao and Xu Nuan, he would have thought that something is going on between Xu Nuan and Han Liang. 

" Sir...there is something else as well that you should see." He said while cautiously changing the page for him to see. 

[ This can't be true. My Prince can't be dating an ugly bitch like her. She is just an innocent face and was trying to seduce him for money. She should just die!! She doesn't deserve a living god like him.]

[ Hah! Ridiculous. How can Han Liang be dating a girl? Wasn't he gay? Is this some promotional stunt?]

[ For those who are interested in her identity, her name is Xu Nuan. She is working as a manager in a shining bright company. She is an artist manager of a girl group, called 'The Knights' at the moment who are going to debut in two weeks. Although she is good at singing, she doesn't deserve to be with my Liang.]

[ Generally, it's artists who get into dating scandals but it's my first time seeing a group getting into trouble because of their manager's dating scandal. It's kinda funny to me.]

Han Zihao read all the comments and gritted his jaw seeing how people were hating Xu Nuan and even sending her threats, asking her to die or leave the company.
