In the original novel, was it mentioned that Fu Hengzhi liked or was close to anyone?
Zhou Zhou encouraged her active brain and began to sort out the storyline of Fu Hengzhi in the original work.
In the original novel, after Fu Hengzhi divorced the original owner of the body, he devoted himself to the company despite the pressure from his parents, expanding the influence of the Fu Group. Fu Hengzhi himself became a nationally renowned entrepreneur, and because of his achievements, his family no longer pressured him to do anything.
"This guy is a breath of fresh air in the world of melodramatic romance novels aimed at women." Zhou Zhou tapped his fingertips on the railing, making an ethereal sound.
So, did Fu Hengzhi not have a single romantic interest from beginning to end?
No, as a successful person, Fu Hengzhi cannot, or at least should not, not even have a romantic interest.
Zhou Zhou decided that, with divorce as the primary goal, her secondary goal would be to help Fu Hengzhi find a suitable romantic interest.
'Gurgle~'
Zhou Zhou rubbed his stomach and left the balcony bedroom to go downstairs for a look.
I spent the whole afternoon racking my brains, and for lunch I only ate a couple of bites of vegetables and a bowl of white rice. I'm hungry now.
"Aunt Feng?" Zhou Zhou walked to the bottom of the stairs on the first floor. The entire villa was completely silent. He called out, but there was no response. Aunt Feng had probably gone out.
Zhou Zhou went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator door, wondering if he could find some leftovers to heat up.
It was full of unprocessed vegetables. Sure enough, leftovers didn't deserve to be in the CEO's refrigerator.
Throughout the kitchen, Aunt Feng kept it impeccably clean.
The more this happened, the stronger Zhou Zhou's hunger became.
He guessed that upscale villa areas were outside the delivery range of food delivery services. Zhou Zhou opened the mobile app, then closed it and put it in his pocket.
You guessed right.
Let's go out and buy some food.
Zhou Zhou was not familiar with the surrounding environment, so he took this opportunity to wander around, familiarize himself with the map and the way.
Mobile payment is the best option, so Zhou Zhou put on a mask and went straight out.
Aunt Feng has her own electric scooter when she goes out, but he can only walk. Based on his memory of taking the bus these past two days, he estimates that he would have to walk more than a kilometer to the nearest large supermarket.
Zhou Zhou strolled leisurely along the roadside, the tranquility giving him the illusion that he had returned to his original world.
There were quite a few people wearing masks outside, and those who could be seen with their eyebrows and eyes showing were all handsome men and beautiful women. As a former public figure, Zhou Zhou did not stand out among them.
A KFC opened outside the supermarket, and Zhou Zhou's meager four-figure balance was more than enough to afford a fried chicken and burger meal.
At this time, office workers had just finished get off work, and there were quite a few people. Fortunately, Zhou Zhou arrived early, ordered, and chose a small corner table to sit down facing the wall.
'Ding-dong~'
Zhou Zhou had just taken out his phone when he received a WeChat message.
Xiao Zhao: Brother Zhou, you're trending again.
After reading the text message, Zhou Zhou's right eyelid twitched involuntarily.
What do you mean by "again"? By the way, isn't Xiao Zhao the original owner's assistant?
The day before yesterday, when we were filming, my agent seemed to have told me not to go on Weibo.
Zhou Zhou thought to himself, "I've already retired from the entertainment industry, what am I afraid of?"
Zhou Zhou logged into the original owner's Weibo account somewhat awkwardly, and before he could even see the trending topics, he was shocked by his own profile picture.
I don't know which movie the original owner filmed, but he seemed to be playing a pitiful passerby who was killed by a falling object.
Zhou Zhou didn't even dare to click on the profile picture, not understanding why the original owner would use such a bloody look as their profile picture.
Is it performance art?
The confusion over the profile picture lasted less than a minute before Zhou Zhou clicked on the national trending topics list.
[1. Zhou Zhou terminates her contract with Xingtu Entertainment and returns home to inherit a vast fortune.]
Zhou Zhou: "?"
He dreamed of going home to inherit billions of dollars, but in reality, he couldn't even come up with a thousand dollars.
Clicking in to view, the top-ranked Weibo post had no images; it was just a full screen of text.
After a cursory glance at Zhou Zhou's entire work, in short, the author claimed to be an employee of Xingtu Company and said that Xingtu took such good care of Zhou Zhou, a vase actress with zero acting skills and a bad temper, because of the capital behind Zhou Zhou.
Why is his acting so bad? Because the young master doesn't make a living from it.
Why wasn't his bad temper banned? Because the young master has billions in assets behind him; anything that can be solved with money is no big deal for him.
Why did he retire from the entertainment industry? Because the young master had had enough fun.
The blogger wrote a story about a wealthy family feud, about the love and hate between the first and second wives, which ultimately led Zhou Zhou, who had no intention of getting involved in the family's power struggles, to stop having fun and go back to inherit the family's vast fortune.
Zhou Zhou was amused by the wildly imaginative ideas. He liked the post on Weibo and then went to the comments section.
Without a doubt, everyone was cursing him.
It wasn't veiled mockery or open sarcasm; it was genuine, passionate speaking, using a variety of emojis.
"Wow, netizens are really quick-witted." Zhou Zhou watched these comments with amusement, his lips curling into a wide smile behind his mask, as if he wasn't the one being criticized.
The comments are all over the place. Some say that fans have turned into haters, while others say that the haters are not fans at all. Only the haters are pure haters.
At least the original owner wasn't in a terrible situation, and he still had a few fans who spoke up for him.
Number 158~
When her number was called, Zhou Zhou went to the food counter to get her food, returned to her seat, and instead of eating, continued browsing Weibo.
His name was still posted two positions away from the top of the trending searches.
4. Zhou Zhou acts like a diva, making things difficult for Xingtu Security.
Zhou Zhou: "..."
Zhou Zhou didn't even need to click in to know that the comments inside were all cursing him.
As I flipped through the pages, I unexpectedly saw his name again.
[16. Zhou Zhou's acting skills]
Did the original owner even have acting skills? Zhou Zhou wasn't mocking the original owner; in the book, the original owner was just a pretty face, with looks kissed by God but acting skills trampled underfoot.
Zhou Zhou was quite curious about the original owner's acting skills.
The first item you see when you click on it is a video.
Zhou Zhou put on the Bluetooth earphones he found in the original owner's drawer and began to enjoy them. After watching for most of the day, he belatedly realized... wasn't this the scene he had acted out that morning on set, where he added the female lead on WeChat?
The key issue is that there are also spam comments below.
-This young man is so handsome and has such great acting skills.
-Just a passerby, do you know who this guy is?
...
Even an outsider like Zhou Zhou could accurately deduce from the original owner's true situation that this was probably paid online trolls. It was likely that the company had arranged promotion for him based on his improved acting skills after he finished filming, but he terminated the contract that very night.
Sigh, everyone was embarrassed.
Zhou Zhou's ranking continued to decline, and unsurprisingly, the most liked comments were still those criticizing him.
- Ugh, whitewashing dog. The main actor has already terminated his contract and retired from the industry, and you're still trying to whitewash his acting skills. This young master's acting skills are so bad that even giving them away to the production team would be too much.
One comment below was pushed to the top, and judging from the tone, it was probably from a fan of the original owner.
What do you mean? Can't my brother be a good actor?
Don't be angry, this might be AI face swapping.
Haha, I would call this a sophisticated form of satire.
Hilarious! Don't they have any idea how bad their own idol's acting is?
Zhou Zhou stared at the Weibo post for a while longer. It wasn't that he was too sensitive to be criticized, but rather that the ID name of the person who spoke up for him looked familiar.
It seems that this ID appeared in all the comments I just saw that were criticizing or insulting him.
'Gurgle~' I only smelled it but didn't eat it; my stomach was already protesting.
Zhou Zhou took off her mask, put on a disposable glove with her left hand to grab some fries and popcorn chicken, and continued swiping her phone with her right hand.
Zhou Zhou clicked on the ID and found that it was a real fan.
She's a true fan, and a girlfriend fan at that.
Hmm, I don't quite understand this first time he's leaving the entertainment industry. Does he have to issue a notice of retirement to his fans and haters on Weibo?
After all, it's the original owner's life, so it's best to bring it to a perfect end.
Xiao Zhao: Brother Zhou, have you checked Weibo? QAQ
Seeing the vivid facial expressions, Zhou Zhou couldn't help but smile.
In the original owner's memory, Xiao Zhao seemed to be a young man with an honest and kind face, who was also very caring and had a tight tongue. Therefore, when the original owner interviewed his personal assistant, he directly hired him.
- Zhou Zhou: Just finished watching it.
Zhou Zhou tapped his phone to reply to the other party. In his memory, the original owner usually didn't read Weibo, finding it annoying. It was Xiao Zhao who would read it and then relay the message to him.
The memory was sometimes clear and sometimes blurry; he couldn't recall these things without trying hard.
Shouldn't he have told Xiao Zhao if he terminated the contract?
- Zhou Zhou: Well, actually I've already terminated my contract and left the entertainment industry, just this morning.
- Xiao Zhao: I know QAQ.
Zhou Zhou raised an eyebrow; the other party was quite well-informed.
- Xiao Zhao: By the way, Brother Zhou, this is the first time you've replied to my message QAQ.
Zhou Zhou scrolled up the messages. Just as the other party had said, the messages above were all sent one-way to the original owner. However, when he clicked into the chat box, there was only a latest message notification, indicating that the original owner was the type who would read the messages but not reply.
Seeing that the other person's expression remained unchanged for half a sentence, making them look miserable, Zhou Zhou felt a little guilty.
Zhou Zhou: Sorry, I'll reply to your messages later.
- Xiao Zhao: No need to apologize, Brother Zhou. I just want to know, now that you've retired from the entertainment industry, when are you going to pay me back my salary from last month? QAQ
