That evening the official weibo of 'Walking to You' revealed the cast and singers of the Ost album. There were four songs in the album and the title song was to be sung by Zhang Yuqi which was a big deal. Small time singers like her were never given the chance to sing the title song, that too, in a big production like this.
Zhang Yuqi's name caused a big commotion. Most people didn't even recognize her. The most important question was how did a no-name singer like her get this kind of big-scale project. Although not too high, the investment in this drama was $40 million. It was still considered a big catch for Zhang Yuqi. Nobody knew her name or any pf her previous works. The netizens started to be curious of the reason why she was given this chance.
Some netizens dug up everything about her. She was a small artiste from Xing Ye Entertainment since four years. She had only sung in local brand commercials and web series up until now.
People thought it was because she was not talented. If she was really talented, why would she be stuck at the same level for four years without any progress? And if she wasn't talented, how did she clinch such a big project this time?
If it was because of her talent that she got this chance, the only reason could be her having a backer!
Zhang Yuqi's family background was not known to anyone except her best friend, Luo Qiqi, so the netizens naturally didn't know that. They thought she was neither from a good family, nor did she have any influential contacts, the only remaining reason could be her sugar daddy.
No one could have suspected that this smooth course of events was planned. From the account that questioned Zhang Yuqi's getting this project to the one that revealed her details and also the one that reasoned her being supported by a sugar daddy, all these accounts had acted on Zhang Youwei's manager Cui Meng's orders.
This kind of gossip was the juiciest and also spread faster. Meanwhile, Xing Ye Entertainment's PR also did nothing to resolve the issue. Even if Zhang Yuqi lost this project, they would be able to give the project to one of their better artistes, Zhang Youwei. This way not only would they be able to give face to the Zhang Family, but also the production team would definitely not dare to speak otherwise. They would choose the Zhang Family's influence over a mere unknown artiste.
The discussions online grew worse and everyone began to curse Zhang Yuqi. In just a few hours, her name reached the top searches. This was the first time a no-name artist caused such a stir online.
The water army hired by Zhang Youwei did their work and the media also followed the online discussions. After all it wasn't the first time any artist did such things to get projects had investments and had their statuses as mistresses exposed.
Moreover Zhang Yuqi's pretty looks and alluring figure did nothing but increase the credibility of those rumours. Beauty was really a double-edged sword! It was useful in this industry but could also drag you down.
............
That night.
Zhang Yuqi was unaware of the incidents going on. She hadn't paid attention to the internet at all, after all she was not that famous.
Another reason was because she was extremely nervous. Today was her and Lu Zitian's wedding night. What was she supposed to do in this kind of situation? After finishing her dinner in a hurry, she headed upstairs and took a shower. Lu Zitian had gone for a business dinner that evening and would be back in 10 mins.
Should she sleep first? That way she wouldn't need to care about what happens! If she said that she was sleepy and slept first, no one could blame her!
But sleeping first on her wedding night without waiting for her new husband would look rude too!
She sat at the edge of the bed contemplating what to do. Just then the door opened and Lu Zitian strode in, his perfectly chiseled face and sharp eyes were expressionless and an icy aura was emanating from him. There were no creases in his pants and the buttons of his dress shirt were meticulously buttoned all the way to the top. He looked like a model.
Hanging his coat on the rack, he looked at Zhang Yuqi before saying, "I'll take a shower first."
He then disappeared into the bathroom.
The sound of dripping water came from the bathroom and Zhang Yuqi involuntarily started to imagine Lu Zitian's figure. She was sure he had a nice body. Although he was lean , his biceps were taut. This afternoon, he had worn a white t-shirt that was not completely opaque. His chest muscles and abs were faintly outlined through it. He looked so sexy even when dressed. She might literally get a nosebleed if she saw him naked.
As she realized her thoughts, Zhang Yuqi blushed furiously. How could she imagine such things! Was it really okay to have such perverted thoughts on another man after being rejected just two days ago?
It was one thing that she didn't regret this marriage. But this was the first time she had paid attention to a man's physique and blushed because of it. Still, she would rather sleep with a man like Lu Zitian for the rest of her life than keep herself chaste for someone who didn't care about her, although she wasn't pure anymore!
