Xu Nuan was browsing through Weibo and was tiredly looking at the hate comments against her when a notification popped up in the notification section. She clicked on it and when she checked the notification, her eyes widened in shock.

" What...is he crazy?" he exclaimed in shock, seeing that Han Liang had followed her on Weibo with his official account. Earlier when she had posted the announcement of "THE KNIGHTS" through the company's account and had shared it, he had liked that post.

After the scandal, everyone started assuming that they are in a relationship and was trying to hide it. Because of it, his crazy fans started spamming her account with their dm and keep tagging her in posts which is annoying. The editing of the broadcasting channel worked as the oil in the fire, inflaming the scandal.

" Is he crazy? Why did he follow me? Is he trying to get me killed by his fans?" she frowned when she started to get DMs from strangers, asking about her relationship with Han Liang.

Her mouth fell open seeing how crazy and free people are. It's barely been 5 minutes since he followed her and people already started to annoy her.

However, just as she was thinking that the worst is over, another notification popped on her screen. She pursed her lips, afraid to open them.

After taking a few deep breaths, she finally took the challenge and clicked on the notification. She frowned seeing that Han Liang had tagged her in a post.

She raised her brows seeing that he had posted a photo of her giving the interview while he was sitting beside her and was staring at her with a smile. The angel and lightning of the photo made the two look well in the picture which made her nod in satisfaction since her features also looked well defined in this one.

The caption said, [ In the last few days, I have seen all sorts of posts and comments due to the misunderstanding created by the clips posted by the SFX broadcasting channel. However, using my personal account I want to clarify that nothing is going on between me and that person. We're just friends and Yes, men and women can be friends. I hope because of a simple interview, you don't take things seriously and stop harassing the people around me.

She is my friend and that too, an old and close one. I don't want my fans to invade her personal life and harass her to the point where it puts someone's life in danger. I don't want to be embarrassed in front of her because of my fans. I want my fans to become a peaceful and harmonious fan club that everyone likes to join, not look down on them for being toxic and hateful.

The only relationship that I am in right now is with my music. If I ever get into a relationship, my fans will be the first ones to know about it. It would not be because I am obliged to, but I care about you and your feelings towards me. However, if this attitude continues, I won't be able to trust my fans in the future and be truthful to them.

Ps. Do support ' THE KNIGHTS' who are going to debut on the 24th of December. I have heard them sing and they are amazing. As a person who makes music and enjoys it, I am sure you also gonna love them as well. And don't miss today's long-awaited episode of Karaoke Star.

Xu Nuan pursed her lips, not sure how to react to his post. Since when he became this serious about things? Wasn't he immune to such scandals?

She remembered him telling her that his agency doesn't even bother to release a statement about dating scandals since he gets into too many rumors and scandals that b times everything gets normal. Then what's wrong with him this time?

When she saw the comments, she raised her brows seeing how fast people changed their attitude.

[ I am so happy that he decided to speak about the scandal. Those fans who attacked Xu Nuan are not even the real fans, they are toxic and it's embarrassing. We, Stars, don't claim such fans.]

[ I feel so bad for that poor girl. They are friends but she was called for being friends with him and even got her account filled with hate comments. Leave the poor girl.]

[ I heard from someone that a crazy fan pushed the girl in the photo in front of the truck and almost killed her. Although I am not sure if this news is legit, if it's true then it's crazy how much she got hated for no reason.]

[ Don't worry, Han Liang. Your friend is our friend. If you're saying that THE KNIGHTS are good then it must be. And we are definitely gonna support them. We will protect you and your friend.]

[ AHH, Even though they're not in a relationship, they look like a couple. The way he is looking at her is so precious. How can someone call her ugly? She is so beautiful and they look so good together. Just get married already.]

Xu Nuan sighed reading the comments and shook her head in disbelief, " People are so hypocritical! I was a bitch a few days ago and now they are shipping us? Weird."

" Brother, did you see my post? As you said, I not only clarified the matter but also tagged her in the post and promoted her group. I am the best, aren't I?" Han Liang asked while talking to Han Zihao on a phone.

Han Zihao who was sitting in his office and was reading his statement nodded and said, " You did well. But don't forget that this whole mess was created because of you."

" Brother, how is it my fault? It was Xu Nuan who had given her that interview. I tried to stop her but she continued to make a rubbish story." he said in a low voice while rubbing his neck embarrassedly.

Han Zihao didn't say anything, however, his silence made Han Liang even more nervous. He got so scared when he found out that Xu Nuan was pushed on the road and almost got into an accident.

He was so scared and was feeling guilty but it was Han Zihao who told him to relax and don't do anything until he tells him anything to do. Today the episode of Karaoke Star is going to release, so he told him to post this message today through his personal account and not let the company release the statement because it will appear more sincere and his fans would take it more seriously.

After talking to Han Liang, Han Zihao read the comments that were now being sympathetic to Xu Nuan. However, his eyes stopped at a certain comment.

He frowned and repeated the words written in the comment, " They look like a couple? Get married already? Have they lost their minds?" he growled at the useless comment that was shipping Xu Nuan with Han Liang.

" Who said that he was looking at her romantically? He was just looking at her the way he looks at...looks at a monkey. It was not a romantic gaze but a funny and interesting one. They are stupid that they can't figure out such a simple thing." He scoffed as he said with a husky voice.

Feng Sheng who just entered the room to tell him that Ms. Gu has called him and wants to talk to him, heard him saying those words. He pursed his lips and looked down at his phone and realized that Xu Nuan is still on the line.

' She wouldn't have heard this, right?' he wondered and hoped that she didn't. Otherwise, his boss's love life is gonna end before it could start.

How can he call his girlfriend Monkey? That's too extreme.
