  “Miss Nan, in order to get to the top, you even hurt people deliberately! With such poor character, you’re not worthy to be a host!”


  “I heard that Miss Nan was nominated for the ‘Best Host’ award. How can you think you deserve to be nominated?!”


  Nan Zhi held onto the doorframe weakly, looking at the group of unreasonable reporters and said softly, “You really all believe Du Xiwen words?”


  The leading reporter took a few steps forward, the heavy camera lense almost stabbing into her face. “Why would we believe him? Miss Nan, Teacher Du is well-known for being a good husband, and has a textbook-like existence in the host industry. He is a man full of integrity, and leads an honest and clean life. Not only that he’s talented and most importantly, he and his wife were childhood sweethearts. They have been together for more than 40 years! He did not leave his wife even though she suffered from postpartum depression, and then had a car accident. They are a well-known model couple in the industry.”


  “Teacher is an honest man, and has never had any gossip about him. But you have been getting a lot of negative press lately and have a bad reputation. If we don’t believe in Teacher Du, do you think we would believe you?”


  The reporters behind all murmured their agreement after the leading reporter had finished speaking.

  Du Xiwen saw that the reporters were on his side and he heaved a sigh of relief. He held on to the injured area on his forehead and continued to act pitifully, slandering Nan Zhi. “Since I’ve started out in this industry, it’s not like I’ve never met a female host who wanted to sleep with people, but this Miss Nan is one of the most despicable women I’ve ever seen. She thought I was like her previous financiers, giving in to her just because she seduced me?”


  “Way to go, Teacher Du!”


  “Teacher Du, you’re really a clear stream in the host industry!”


  “Teacher Du, we support you. We’ll definitely report extensively on how Nan Zhi tried to seduce a judge in tonight’s award ceremony!”


  An Xiaolin, who was standing behind the reporters, lifted her lips in a gloating smirk.

  She took out her phone, quietly recorded a video and sent it to Nan Yao.

  Nan Yao saw how Nan Zhi was being attacked by the reporters in the video and her excitement surged through her blood.

  Seducing a married judge, let’s see how Nan Zhi got out of this mess!

  So what if she was not in Ning City, she had already bought over Lin Wanyue and An Xiaolin’s hearts. They were her lackeys now and would naturally do what she wanted them to do without question.

  Nan Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at her bag that was on the ground.

  She had no strength and even picking up a bag was an arduous task to her.

  These people really thought she was unprepared?

  But…… Nan Zhi looked around and saw no one who was able to pick up her bag for her……

  “Ah Han, thank you for coming to watch the Golden Microphone Awards with me. Oh, there are so many reporters ahead. What are they doing?”


  Hearing Xue’er’s voice, Nan Zhi raised her head and saw Mu Sihan and Xue’er through the flickering shadows of the people.

  She heard that Mu Sihan was the sponsor for the awards ceremony so it was not unusual for him to appear here. And besides, Xue’er had worked in the broadcasting station before so she must have liked to host.

  Nan Zhi almost opened her mouth on instinct to ask Mu Sihan to pick up her bag.

  But very quickly she remembered that he was getting engaged to Xue’er and was the fiancé of another woman.

  He no longer had any ties to her.

  When their gazes met, Nan Zhi quickly looked away and did not notice the man’s pupils constricting, his handsome face becoming unruly and murderous.

  But it was only for one or two seconds before he sorted out his emotions. Noone could tell what he was thinking.

  Xue’er saw that it was Nan Zhi who was being surrounded by the reporters and her first reaction was to look at the man beside her.

  The man’s face was expressionless, his dark eyes deep and there were no fluctuation of emotions seen.

  “I’m going to the washroom,” Mu Sihan said coldly.

  Xue’er nodded and said, “Go ahead, I’ll go and help Miss Nan.”


  “Don’t interfere in this kind of thing.” The man walked away after finished speaking. When he was in the washroom, Mu Sihan took out his phone and sent a text message to Yi Fan……

  If you want to condemn someone, don’t bother justifying it.

  Give a dog a bad name and hang him.

  No matter how eloquent Nan Zhi was, alone, she was not able to refute the charges they had imposed on her.

  She willed her weak body towards the lounge, but it just wouldn’t listen.

  Du Xiwen saw that Nan Zhi was not flustered, overbearing or self-effacing. He suddenly thought of something and he was one step ahead of Nan Zhi, picking up her bag from the ground and threw it out of the window when the reporters were not looking.

  There was a cold glint in Du Xiwen’s eyes. This woman was smarter than he had thought. Fortunately, he had found out in time she had a trick up her sleeve or else he could not bear to think of the consequences.

  Nan Zhi smirked. She fell to the place where Du Xiwen had thrown her and picked up the watch that had fallen under the chair.

  She had accidentally dropped the watch when she was struggling.

  “Sister Zhi, what happened?” Xia Xi, who was called away and came back, saw that Nan Zhi was on the ground and helped her up hurriedly.

  Nan Zhi was calm and there was even a coldness in her eyes. “Help me to the door.”


  Xia Xi nodded in a hurry and supported Nan Zhi to the door.

  Standing at the door, Nan Zhi handed the watch to Xia Xi. “There’s a recording function in this watch. Everyone will be clear as to what happened between me and Du Xiwen after listening to it.”


  Du Xiwen’s face paled when he heard Nan Zhi’s words.

  This b*tch had created a diversion, deliberately making him think that there was a recorder in the bag. It turned out that she had actually make a recording but it was with that watch!

  Du Xiwen went forward and wanted to snatch that watch but Xia Xi was quick to react and rushed to cover it over her chest, and pressed play at the same time.

  “.…… Xiao Nan, I’m Du Xiwen, the judge for the Golden Microphone Award. I’m sure you have heard of my name before.

  “.…… Nan Zhi, don’t you know the hidden rules in the industry? I heard that you were previously financially supported too. Since you’ve already done it before, why are you still pretending? If you are obedient, I can let you get the ‘Best Host’ Award.”


  “.…… You’re a slut but wants to act chaste, why are you acting like you are so virtuous? Gao Zhen of XX Broadcasting Station, He Ya of XX Broadcasting Station were all unwilling at first but after I slept with them, didn’t they still become my mistresses?

  “If you follow me, I can make you popular and become the top female host in the industry. If you don’t follow my orders while I’m being nice, don’t blame me for being rude!”


  Hearing Du Xiwen’s disgusting and obscene leer on the recording, the reporters stared at one another in shock. They could not believe their ears.

  Was this person really the Teacher Du who they had defended and trusted? Wasn’t Teacher Du a clear stream of the industry, a man who only loved his wife and never messed around?

  How could he be so unscrupulous and shameless?

  Du Xiwen’s face turned pale in an instant. He clenched his fists tightly and glared at Nan Zhi menacingly before defending himself. “Don’t believe her. The recording in her watch is all made up so she can frame me.” Then, he looked at Nan Zhi with a lecturing expression. “Miss Nan, I didn’t want to sleep with you so you deliberately planned all of this. If you could put your heart in hosting, you would not have been evaluated by the judges as being an attractive pin-up girl with no real worth!”
