Chapter 45 - A Clue

Having breakfast together had become a habit for Nana and Wira. Days, weeks, even months passed but they were still comfortable with each other company. Of course some of the spectators would shout at them to get back together, but Nana would only smile at them and dismiss their teasing.

Despite her mother's harassment, Nana could feel that the quality of her life improved ever since she moved out of her house. Only few things could actually disrupt her mood and the harassment from her family was one of them. So, when she showed up with a low mood, it was easy to guess what had happened to her.

But, she also had the neutralizer for her low mood.

She would stalk Mu Yang's reawakened account.

Yes. After the official announcement of Mu Yang becoming Apollo's Brand Ambassador, his account had started to actively post about his activities and even did some live streaming.

Since Mu Yang didn't know her account name and she had made sure to lock her own account and used a common look profile, she could stalk him easily.

She even joined his live streaming and gave him her blessings, just like the others.

Seeing that the man who once occupied her heart and life turned out to be even more charming gave her a strange feel of pride.

He looked so fine and charming, and above all, he looked more mature. Nana didn't know if it was the effect of camera or he did mature a lot after their farewell, but he radiated a glow that made his fans even more hysterical than usual.

[Kyaaaaa~ my Ayang is soooo handsome ❤❤❤]

[Ayang, why do you look even more handsome? 💕]

[My husband is getting hotter!! 🔥🔥🔥]

Nana smiled seeing the typical hysterical comment on the screen. She watched as Mu Yang laughed at the comments and thanked the fans for their support. He seemed to hand his phone to someone, probably his manager, and walked towards a man who was calling out to him just now. Nana recognized the man as one of the men in Apollo, probably the one in charge of Mu Yang. They were just talking but seeing the seriousness in Mu Yang's face made Nana's heart skipped a beat.

There was nothing wrong, right?

Nana couldn't help but think so. Mu Yang's stay in Apollo headquarters would end soon and he would return to his daily activities as the actor Mu Yang. If something bad happened before he ended his stay, his schedule would need to be revised again. He might lose some contracts that he had signed for after Apollo.

Hopefully, he would be okay.

The audiences noticed the seriousness between these two men, but because of their secretive way of talking and the way the Apollo's employee turned his back towards the camera since the beginning of the conversation, no one could predict what they were talking about.

However, a moment later, the employee picked up his phone and talked for a minute. They were too far from the phone, so no one could hear anything. Audiences only speculated about what was being transpired based on their change of expression.

Nana was one of them. Mu Yang's expression was still serious as ever, but the light in his eyes changed as soon as the talk between the employee and whoever it was on the other side of the call ended.

It must be a good news.

Minutes later, the employee waved goodbye to Mu Yang and towards the camera then he left. He was fully aware that their conversation was being watched by millions of people, but he chose to ignore it. It shouldn't be something important if it could be aired in the public, right?

Mu Yang didn't say anything about what had just happened. He just said goodbye, saying that he should get ready for something and wait for good news.

Later that night, a news about Mu Yang attended a party special for higher society. His presence there as the ambassador of Apollo attracted many eyes and media. It was unusual for a celebrity -unless they were born into higher society themselves -to attend this party, yet Mu Yang got invited!

Of course, there were some contras raised in the public as a disagreement to his presence there. However, Mu Yang's fans club wasn't one to be trifled with. As one of them, Nana involved herself in the keyboard war with the others to protect Mu Yang's dignity.

After all, one of the top nasty comment about Mu Yang's involvement in the party was that he sold himself to the billionaires there!

[Just because you sold yourself to someone, doesn't mean Mu Yang needs to do it, too! @LookingForMrRight]

[Every accusation is a confession! Our Mu Yang doesn't need to sell himself! @LookingForMrRight]

[Shame on you for accusing our Mu Yang to do that! It is below his level to do that kind of thing! @LookingForMrRight]

[Do you think everyone is as dirty as you? How dare you accusing Mu Yang to do that! He is not that desperate to get dirty his image like that! @LookingForMrRight]

All those comments tagged one account. LookingForMrRight had successfully enraged Mu Yang's fans. Her account was flooded with the angry wrath of Mu Yang's fans to the point her account was suspended.

But, the damage has been done. Once a person started it, it spread like fire and soon, people started echoing that baseless accusation.

[Right, maybe that's the reason why he got his position in Apollo. He slept with someone to get that Ambassador's position.]

[Riiiight? It's a sus for an Asian man to be Apollo's Ambassador when they haven't accepted any Asian male model before.]

[He looks good, I admit, but it's too suspicious for them to suddenly accept Asian model. He must have an insiders, and I couldn't think of any reason why he got an insider other than sleeping with one of them.]

[Did you notice the man who's always with him during his live streaming? I heard he has a position in Apollo and that he is the CEO's right hand man. Did he sleep with him to be able to attend that party? Or, maybe with the CEO himself?]

Reading those comments could only make Nana burn with rage even more. Her fingers danced on her keyboards as the clacking sounds of the keyboard being used filled her room. But, she didn't act blindly. She had proofs and she sent them the proofs why Apollo accepted him as well as his pictures with all the higher ups in Apollo. The caption she set for them to see was:

[Mu Yang sold himself for a contract? Here is why he doesn't need to do it and why your accusation are BASELESS! Read it, you haters!]

She completed her reasons with the evidence of articles, both came from his agency and Apollo.

Her hard work got shared and liked by many as they said her reason was on point and flawless. All those noises happened in just a matter of hours. When the party was over and Mu Yang could find time to check on his phone, he finally learned about the mess.

He also read the list of evidence and explanation composed by Nana -without knowing that the real sender of the list was his girlfriend- and felt grateful inside. As his eyes were reading the content of his 'defense', his heart felt warmer towards the writer of the content.

That was until he read the last sentence...

[All the higher ups in Apollo are men. Mu Yang is not a desperate person to sell himself to men when he has countless talents to support himself. Also, he is a great lover and a lover of women. He has promised himself to his Bao Bei, why would he seduce men? Quit slandering our Ayang!]

Mu Yang: "..!!!"
