Liang Guo hesitated, then gave a small, rueful smile. "Not entirely. But I managed to keep my distance."
The host leaned back, his expression thoughtful. "So, you're saying Chen Mumu used inappropriate tactics to secure her role as Cai Ying?"
"I'm not saying anything definitive," Liang Guo said quickly. "But… people can draw their own conclusions."
Online, the reaction was immediate and intense.
"She's disgusting!" one comment read.
"She seduced her way into the role. Typical," another user wrote.
"Liang Guo is a victim here. He's brave for speaking out," someone else added.
Chen Mumu's lips pressed into a thin line as she read the comments flashing across the screen. Her hand clenched into a fist.
This man. This ridiculous, slimy man.
The host wrapped up the interview with a flourish. "Thank you, Mr. Liang, for sharing your story. It takes courage to speak the truth."
