The release of this video, along with photos from the advertisement shoot showing Gou Zhe staring blankly at the man, who was drinking a beverage and not even glancing at Gou Zhe, caused a stir.
Everyone was speculating that the other party in the photos and video, who was searching for his lost robot, was Mr. Wen.
Suddenly, the already sensational global news intensified and became uncontrollable because one of the involved parties was top celebrity Gou Zhe.
Gou Zhe's agent, Jiang Yue, saw it immediately, but it was too late for the company to handle it.
Meanwhile, even though Wen Ziyue had been spending money to suppress the news and remove Wen Bai's photos from the trending searches, it was impossible to control in a short period due to the rapid spread of online information and the sheer volume of discussions.
Some quick-witted netizens even pointed out that Gou Zhe and Mr. Wen must have met while filming an advertisement at the robot research center.
More enthusiastic netizens confidently identified him as Mr. Wen.
These netizens then released a recording of Gou Zhe's live stream from the robot advertisement shoot.
In the recording, Mr. Wen and his beautiful robot briefly appeared in the upper right corner behind Gou Zhe's large face.
Suddenly, there were various speculations, and everyone's conjectures about the relationship between Gou Zhe and Mr. Wen began to lean towards ambiguity.

When Wen Bai, full of food and drink, returned to the villa with his robot 575, he immediately saw Wen Ziyue sitting in the living room.
Wen Ziyue entered Wen Bai's home as if it were an empty territory.
This was the second time.
Wen Bai found a living person accompanied by a robot inexplicably appearing in his living room without any prior notice.
Wen Ziyue's expression was not good.
Wen Bai's expression was not much better at this moment.
At this moment, Wen Bai's phone rang. Wen Bai intended to reject it, but upon seeing the caller ID, he answered.
As soon as he connected, Wen Mu's voice came through: "Baibai, are you hurt? I only got the news late last night and didn't want to disturb you if you were asleep, so I didn't call. Are you alright? Baibai..."
Wen Bai: "I am not hurt."
"That's good, that's good. You shouldn't be hurt. By the way, Baibai, is Ziyue there?"
Although Wen Bai didn't know why Wen Mu was calling Wen Ziyue through him, he glanced at Wen Ziyue and replied, "He's here. Do you need him to take the call?"
Wen Mu immediately said with a smile, "No, I just wanted to talk to Baibai, and I was just asking about him. But Baibai, why didn't you tell me about such a big incident? No matter what, you can always ask Ziyue to do things for you, just don't overwork yourself."
Wen Bai perfunctorily replied, "Mhmm."
"Baibai, you... sigh, you never want to tell us anything. I know you don't want us to worry. But you must remember that our Wen family will always be your strong backing. If you have any issues you can't handle, please, please don't bear them alone, okay?"
Although Wen Bai found Wen Mu's words strange, and the Wen family couldn't help him with his missions or prevent the heroine from destroying robots...
He still obediently replied, "Okay."
Wen Mu then hung up the phone.
Wen Ziyue, sitting on the sofa, listened to Wen Bai's conversation with a darkened expression.
His mother, knowing he was right there, didn't even speak a few words to him. He really couldn't understand who was her real child.
After Wen Bai hung up the phone, he dropped his obedient demeanor and coldly asked Wen Ziyue, "What are you doing here?"
Wen Ziyue silently turned on the living room television.
The TV immediately played a news report: "A major gun battle occurred in this city last night, resulting in heavy casualties. According to informed sources, this was an ambush on the city's largest gang. The attackers were of unknown origin, and the gang suffered a one-sided massacre. In exchange for a piece of land, their lives were spared. When the police arrived at the scene, the attackers had all fled, leaving no one behind. This is the first time the gang has sought police assistance, which also indirectly reflects the reliability of the city's police..."
Wen Bai: "?"
Wen Ziyue, with a grim expression, changed the channel: "Not this one."
Wen Ziyue switched to another channel.
The news playing on this channel featured a photograph that filled the entire screen.
The news screenshot showed Wen Bai, his robot 575, and Gou Zhe together. On the television photo, Wen Bai and Gou Zhe were deliberately circled, with a sensational and melodramatic headline: "Why is Top Celebrity Gou Zhe relentlessly pursuing the wealthy Mr. Wen?"
The next channel showed the same image, but this time the headline was: "Top Celebrity Gou Zhe's Secret Relationship, His Partner is a World-Class Magnate."
Below this headline was a photo of Gou Zhe and Wen Bai walking side-by-side.
Clearly, 575 had been cropped out, as the screenshot was obviously rushed.
Behind Wen Bai, Gou Zhe's shoulder was still partially visible in the photo, but not fully captured.
Wen Bai watched and then coldly asked, "What do you mean?"
Wen Ziyue turned to face Wen Bai: "You haven't forgotten that you are engaged, have you?"
Wen Bai nodded: "Yes, I am engaged to you. You know these news reports are fake."
Wen Ziyue: "I don't care if it's true or false. It's just that while our engagement is still valid, you should pay attention. Mom and Dad will know, and it will be a whole lot of trouble."
Wen Bai indifferently lowered his gaze and perfunctorily replied, "Oh."
While Wen Ziyue and Wen Bai were talking, neither of them noticed that the tall 575, following behind Wen Bai, was staring intently at the television screen, at the picture of only Wen Bai and Gou Zhe that had been cropped.
Wen Bai thought for a moment and came to a conclusion: "Do you need me to come forward and state that my fiancé is you?"
Upon hearing this, 575, behind Wen Bai, turned his head to look at his master.
Wen Ziyue said, "There's no need to specifically state it."
Wen Ziyue frowned, initially wanting to tell Wen Bai not to cause too much trouble, but then he thought about how this person could be attacked by a rogue robot even at home. He sighed and said, "I'll handle this matter. You just need to cooperate a bit."
Wen Bai nodded: "Okay."
Seeing that Wen Ziyue seemed to have nothing else to do, Wen Bai again made no secret of his desire for him to leave: "Do you have anything else?"
Wen Ziyue quickly suppressed the feeling of sympathy he had just felt for Wen Bai.
