Chapter 124 The Controlling Actor 6 (2/2)

Xiaolin felt immense pressure from his gaze and finally sighed, saying in a low voice.

"Getting scolded?"

"It's just... your fans, isn't this a huge scandal? Teacher Mo, you didn't know?"

Mo Jinnian was taken aback.

"Even after the incident of the secretly taken photos was clarified, many of your fans still chased after Teacher Zhao and cursed her. Moreover, on the day of the official announcement of 'Heroine,' your fans cursed her on Weibo, saying that she was not worthy of acting with you, saying that her true colors were revealed... They also dug up her dark history. Although they didn't actually find any dark history, the curses were still quite nasty."

Xiaolin forced himself to explain, while also feeling quite speechless.

So all the fans were cursing, but the person in question had no idea.

Mo Jinnian's face instantly darkened.

He had absolutely no idea about the online fans.

He couldn't say he knew nothing about it; his assistant had called him about it, but he wasn't feeling well that day, so he just casually said to follow the usual procedure.

He doesn't use Weibo; his agent, Lao Wang, manages the account.

But regardless of whether it was Teacher Zhao or not, it's all because of his dereliction of duty in failing to control his fans, which led to innocent people being chased and scolded by them!

That previous statement was utter nonsense, full of dubious explanations.

The more Mo Jinnian read these comments, the more his brows furrowed.

Damn it, just firing his former manager was too lenient on him!

Mo Jinnian took a deep breath, turned off his phone, and asked his newly appointed agent, Lao Yang, to reissue an apology statement and properly apologize to Teacher Zhao.

And make it clear to the fans that they must, absolutely must not, allow them to continue harassing Teacher Zhao.

The next day, he arrived at the film set early and waited outside Zixi's dressing room.

When Zi Xi pushed open the door, she almost bumped into him, which startled her, and she instinctively took a step back.

Mo Jinnian felt a pang of sadness seeing the wariness in her eyes, but still spoke gently, "Teacher Zhao, can we talk?"

"Yes, please go ahead."

Zi Xi nodded after a two-second silence, her tone distant yet polite.

"I'm sorry, I'm very sorry for the insults you received online."

Mo Jinnian bowed deeply in apology.

Zi Xi was taken aback and frowned as she looked at him.

"I knew about the paparazzi photos and the rumors, but I didn't know my fans had been bothering you. I'm sorry again..."

He bowed again, his voice soft but very earnest.

Zi Xi was surprised that he would say this, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

"I don't ask you to forgive me immediately, but, Teacher Zhao, could you please stop avoiding me like the plague?"

Mo Jinnian looked at her, his eyes welling up with tears, looking like a beautiful woman weeping.

"Well, don't get too close to me then, I don't want to cause trouble."

Zi Xi pursed her lips. While it was certainly pitiful to see a beautiful woman weeping, Zhang Wuji's mother had always told him that the more beautiful a person was, the more likely they were to lie.

Besides, he's an award-winning actor; he's a very good actor.

She was only with Mo Jinnian last time because of the female lead's scheme; she doesn't want to be in this unequal position with him now.

It will become like the previous situation where everyone online is criticizing it.

Thankfully, she stayed home while she was here, otherwise she might have been recognized and attacked by her fans if she went out.

Even two fists can't fight four hands!

Mo Jinnian was taken aback for a moment, then realized that she was afraid of getting too close to him and attracting endless attacks from his fans.

"No, Teacher Zhao... I promise I won't!"

"...I really know I was wrong, and I sincerely repent..."

His voice trembled slightly, he lowered his eyes, his voice was so soft it was almost inaudible, and tears welled up in his eyes instantly.

"...It's not that serious, Teacher Mo...it's just that you shouldn't get too close to me, so as not to cause any misunderstandings."

Zi Xi looked up at his little pearl that seemed about to fall, and even looked a little... aggrieved.

Her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Oh no, men's tears are a woman's stimulant!
