Shift! The Side-Character Heroine Chapter 380

Gossip

“Oh dear, some guy got a clear shot of us. The internet is going to rear its ugly head. Prepare yourself, little Zhao. The rumors will come.” Ding Yuncong shook his head, murmuring to himself, “Careless, careless…”

He was deeply sorry. He was notorious for his relationships and his ideology of “no marriages.” Without a marriage, nobody could lecture him about who he chose to date.

Some might criticize his superficial judgment of beauty, yet he admired the typical faces of internet celebrities. He intended to make his own group of celebrities.

It was crude to do so, if already married, even if it was a common activity for the wealthy people.

Both parties were simply fulfilling the desires of their hearts. After being crushed by his first love, Ding Yuncong has no grudge over the details.

There was no need to get serious with women. They were just tools for pleasure.

Ding Yuncong never intended to keep his relationships under the cover. Ironically, he was still being happily worshipped as the “Husband of the nation.”

Zhao Youyue was the opposite. She had a fair reputation on the internet. The untainted reputation had forged her an image of a saint. No, she did not need any decorations. She was an angelic saint by birth.

Many doubted this fact, and had tried to look for crumbs of her dark side. She feared nothing, as she had done nothing wrong. There were no crumbs at all.

Zhao Youyue lived a simple life. Unlike those playful youths from wealthy families, she had no complicated relationships.

While others used their time to play about, she used hers to enhance her talents. It was a justifiable explanation, as there was no other way to explain her achievements in music!

The truth that nobody knew, was that she loved to play her phone in a quiet corner.

Ding Yuncong strongly believed in that well-disciplined persona of Zhao Youyue, and was deeply impressed by it. A few too many girls would say one thing but do the other. Lin Shiya was a perfect example – and she served as a perfect example of that statement.

Zhao Youyue was different. He had known her for quite some time, and understood more about her through his best friend, Zhao Hao. Zhao Youyue was an innocent girl who was talented in everything, yet it did not keep her from remaining hardworking.

Ding Yuncong often felt stressed in the presence of Zhao Youyue. He did not dare to have any ill intentions on her, and it was most probably because he did not deserve her. But he could feel behave normally if he treated her as a sister.

Zhao Youyue had realized about what had happened. She heard Ding Yuncong, and responded with a joke, “I have seen a lot of it on the internet, everyone loves rumors! This time the headline might be … Surprise! Husband of the Nation found a new love, can’t believe it’s her”

Ding Yuncong felt bad at first, fearing that he might have possibly smeared Zhao Youyue’s reputation. After Zhao Youyue’s joke, he burst into laughter, saying “Don’t say that, such a headline might just come out I used to bring my girlfriend to BBQ at night, and they would report it as if it was a surprising discovery: Ding Yuncong takes BBQ like everyone else!”

“I can never recognize any of your girlfriends.” Zhao Youyue could not help, but complained.

Ding Yuncong laughed awkwardly. He knew in his heart; not many girls were like Zhao Youyue. Such beauty and elegance. Comparing her to any girl would be like comparing flowers and vases, where the vases only emphasized the beauty of that flower.

“Actual ladies have high expectations for their men. Don’t be fooled by netizens who call me the National Husband; I know that most of the time they are just being ridiculous. In fact, I really like those greedy girls. They would do anything to please me just for money, and I could enjoy their offer to the maximum”

Ding Yuncong immediately felt wrong for saying that. How could he speak in such a manner to Zhao Youyue, it was just too candid!

Zhao Youyue was still an underaged young girl, how could he treat her like his age, it was terrible!

“It’s better this way, fulfilling the needs of the other. Your methods are not wrong, they’re way better than Shi Jingnian.” Zhao Youyue commented lightly. “Perhaps that’s the difference between a realist and an idealist.”

Ding Yuncong could not keep the conversation alive. Bragging about his group of celebrities in front of Zhao Youyue would definitely spoil his image.

Even though he had no intentions towards Zhao Youyue, he hoped to leave a good impression on her. Zhao Youyue was the type of girl that left every man wanting to look at his best and decent in her presence.

“Anyway, aren’t you worried about any outbursts on the internet, you might even lose a great deal of fans.” Ding Yuncong thought that Zhao Youyue was being too generous. He had no idea what Zhao Youyue wanted. She seemed okay with a lot of things and nothing really perturbed her.

Perhaps it was Lady Zhao’s character of being indecipherable that “left countless heroes bowing at her feet.” Even Shi Jingnian could not figure out Lady Zhao.

“I was getting bored of this image, I’ve decided to cut my hair,” Zhao Youyue said, as leisurely as ever.

“Huh?” Ding Yuncong did not understand what she meant. He took a look at Zhao Youyue’s silky smooth long hair; and could not help but exhort “There’s no need to cut it, it really matches you, why would you want to cut it, it would be such a waste!”

“I’m going to be in twelfth grade soon; I want to cut my hair to express my determination to focus on my studies, and fight for the chance to enroll in a good university. If not, I can never find a job.” Zhao Youyue spoke in a serious manner.

“I see now that you’re a master of telling serious jokes with that straight face. Don’t you dare presume that I’m not aware of your status as a top student. Also, as a member of the Zhao family, why would you need to find a job, you would be the one hiring others!” Ding Yuncong found Zhao Youyue’s cold jokes particularly entertaining. He had thought that Zhao Youyue was all straight-laced and strict. She had turned out to be an interesting girl, during the trip.

Ding Yuncong treated Zhao Youyue as one of his brothers. They were on the same channel when it came to a lot of topics.

Yet, Ding Yuncong failed to comprehend why Zhao Youyue had to cut her hair. What he did not know was that Zhao Youyue was tired of being under the spotlight. She wanted to return to being an ordinary, inconspicuous stranger. Only then would she be free of all this attention.

As predicted by Ding Yuncong, news spread wildly on the internet. National Husband Ding Yuncong was seen in a limited edition supercar with popular internet celebrity, Ah Yu!

Some despicable media groups rushed to conclude that Zhao Youyue was Ding Yuncong’s new girlfriend!

Some netizens even tagged Ding Yuncong’s current celebrity girlfriend “A” on Weibo.
