Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 712 Something happened

"Lin Ke, thank you." Wang Xinxin said softly, her tone full of gratitude.

"Silly girl, why are you being so polite to me?" Lin Ke smiled and ruffled her hair. "I said I would protect you, and I will definitely do it."

Wang Xinxin raised her head and looked at Lin Ke's determined eyes. A warm feeling surged in her heart. She knew that she could always trust this man.

"By the way, don't you have an announcement this afternoon? Let me take you there." Lin Ke said, looking at the time.

"No need, I can just take a taxi there myself." Wang Xinxin shook her head, "You should go back and rest early. You seem to be very tired from filming recently."

"I'm not tired. It won't be too late for me to rest after I send you there." Lin Ke insisted.

"Really, no need. I can do it myself." Wang Xinxin declined with a smile, "If you're polite to me again, I'll get angry."

Seeing that she insisted, Lin Ke stopped forcing her and said, "Well, be careful on your way and send me a message when you get there."

"I see. You too." Wang Xinxin nodded with a smile, then turned around, hailed a taxi and left.

Lin Ke watched the taxi go away until it was out of sight, then he turned and left.

He looked up at the sky. There were a few white clouds floating in the blue sky. The sun was shining brightly and there was a gentle breeze blowing. Everything was so beautiful.

However, Lin Ke's mood did not become relaxed because of the beautiful weather. There was always a shadow in his heart.

Lin Ke returned home and fell into the sofa tiredly.

Agent Zhang Qiang sat aside, brows furrowed, mobile phone in hand, looking extremely ugly.

"Lin Ke, something happened." Zhang Qiang said in a heavy tone.

Lin Ke rubbed his temples. He had been already worried enough about Wang Xinxin's matter these past two days. How could there be another trouble?
"what happened?"

"Take a look for yourself." Zhang Qiang handed over the phone. On the screen was an entertainment news page with the headline: #Shocking! Popular actor Lin Ke allegedly sent a live rat to intimidate a female actress in the same crew#.

Lin Ke's pupils suddenly contracted and he clicked on the video. The scene was exactly the promotional event that day. Wang Xinxin opened the gift box and screamed with a pale face. The scene was deliberately edited, leaving only him standing aside with an indifferent expression, as if he was watching Wang Xinxin's fear coldly.

The comment section under the video has exploded, filled with all kinds of insults and questions.

"Oh my god! This is too scary! How could Lin Ke be such a person?"

"I always thought he was a sweet guy, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious!"

"I feel so sorry for Goddess Xinxin. It's really unlucky for her to meet such a scumbag!"

Lin Ke's face became more and more ugly. These videos and comments that were taken out of context were clearly meant to torture him to death!
"Investigate! Investigate for me! Who is behind this!" Lin Ke stood up suddenly and said through gritted teeth, with anger burning in his chest.

"I've asked someone to investigate. I think someone hired some online trolls to influence the situation and take advantage of the opportunity to discredit you." Zhang Qiang's face was serious. "The most urgent thing now is to minimize the impact of this incident."

"Contact the PR team and have them handle it immediately!" Lin Ke made a prompt decision. "Also, I'm going to hold a press conference to personally clarify this matter!"

"But..." Zhang Qiang hesitated, "Public opinion is not favorable to us now. If we rashly hold a press conference, I'm afraid..." "What are you afraid of? Are we going to let others throw dirty water on us without saying a word?" Lin Ke's eyes were firm, "I am upright and not afraid of being slandered!"

Zhang Qiang looked at Lin Ke's determined eyes and knew that it was useless to persuade him any further, so he could only nod and agree: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Lin Ke took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that now was not the time to panic. He had to stay rational in order to win this battle!
Lin Ke’s cell phone rang. It was Wang Xinxin calling.

"Hello, Xinxin."

"Lin Ke, have you seen the news? It's too much! How can they distort the facts like this!" Wang Xinxin's voice was filled with anger and worry.

"I already know about it. Don't worry. I have asked Zhang Qiang to handle it. I will also hold a press conference as soon as possible to clarify the matter." Lin Ke comforted.

"Clarify? There are voices scolding you on the Internet now. How do you plan to clarify?" Wang Xinxin's tone was full of doubt and worry.

"The innocent will be innocent. I believe the truth will come out." Lin Ke said firmly, "I have found the deliveryman that day. He can prove my innocence."

"But..." Wang Xinxin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Ke.

"Xinxin, don't worry, I will handle this matter well and will not let you suffer in vain." Lin Ke's tone was gentle but firm.

"I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about you..." Wang Xinxin's voice lowered, "Those people on the Internet are like crazy now, I'm afraid..."

"Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything." Lin Ke's tone was firm, as if he was assuring Wang Xinxin, and also as if he was making a promise to himself.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ke took a deep breath and his eyes were determined. He knew that now was not the time to retreat. He had to stand up and clear his name!

At the same time, Wang Xinxin also put down her mobile phone. She looked out the window with a complicated look in her eyes. She knew Lin Ke's character and knew he would never do such a thing. But now public opinion was so unfavorable to him, could he really clear his suspicion?

Wang Xinxin bit her lip. She couldn’t just sit there and wait to die. She had to do something for Lin Ke!
Wang Xinxin picked up her phone and called her agent: "Hello, please help me contact the major media outlets. I want to hold a press conference right now!"

"What? Now? Xinxin, public opinion is very unfavorable to Lin Ke right now. If you hold a press conference at this time, will it be..." The agent hesitated.

"I know, but I can't just watch him being wrongly accused!" Wang Xinxin said firmly, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

The agent knew Wang Xinxin's personality. Once she made a decision, she would not change it easily. She could only reluctantly agree: "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xinxin took a deep breath and her eyes were determined. She wanted to let everyone know that Lin Ke was innocent!
On the Internet, negative news about Lin Ke continues to ferment, and all kinds of speculation, abuse, and curses are overwhelming, as if to completely devour Lin Ke.

At this moment, a Weibo post, like a bolt from the blue, instantly detonated the entire network.

Wang Xinxin V: I believe in Lin Ke!

These six simple words are powerful and resounding.

As soon as Wang Xinxin's Weibo post was released, it immediately caused an uproar. Netizens flocked to her comment section, with all kinds of voices, including support, doubt, abuse, and blessings.
