death!" 。If you guys really can't do it, we'll just pretend we don't know each other. 。Zhou Ma has a cheerful personality and speaks plainly. Shu Tinglan really likes her and decided in her heart to...Many things happen beyond human control. Once a hint appears, it can be like a building about to collapse, swaying precariously until it finally crashes down, and we are powerless to stop it.

The times have changed completely, no matter how influential you are, it's hard to dominate everything.

Back then, when the Gu family got into trouble, those implicated in it, to protect their own interests, could pull strings and get away with a simple dismissal. That was the way things were done back then.

Now that the Xu family has been reported, those implicated will be uprooted and left vulnerable, let alone able to protect the Xu family.

Xu Zhao wasn't insensitive, she just held out hope. After all, this wasn't the first time she'd experienced something like this, so she stayed at the film set as usual and didn't go home.

Lu Yaoyao's heart today is like a rollercoaster, soaring to the clouds one moment and plummeting to the valley floor the next; it's also like an inferno with alternating bursts of ice-cold and scorching heat.

Thinking of Gu Ruandong's good, my heart burns with a fire.

Thinking of his deception, I was chilled to the bone.

She was feeling a little dazed, but luckily tonight's night shoot didn't require much from her. Her lines were few and her role minimal, just needing to be in the background for a few shots.

So when she got back to her hotel room, it was 11 pm. There was a video call request from Gu Ruandong on her phone, but she was on set at the time so she didn't answer it.

After taking a shower and lying in bed, she opened the chat interface between the two of them.

Besides that video request, there was also this line from him: Let me know when you get back from the set.

The confusion, doubt, and sadness from before the May Day holiday had returned, and this time they were overwhelming her in a geometrically increasing amount. This was because she had confirmed with him, and he said he didn't know her.

Besides sadness, there is also unwillingness.

Although she was unwilling, there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart. She refused to give up.

Didn't Xin Gu treat Ruan Dong just as a plaything There must be some feelings there, right

She'd originally planned to wait for him to confess his feelings, but since he hadn't made a move, she decided to take the initiative again. She also wanted to confirm once more. As long as he said he loved her, she would pretend all the deceit never happened.

She thought, this relationship brought her much more happiness than pain, so it was worth it.

She patted him on WeChat.

"Brother, brother, are you there"

"In." came the quick reply.

She said, "Brother, I love you."

Although her tone was playful, her hands were sweating and her heart was pounding as she stared at the screen after typing those two lines.

Her phone vibrated, and Gu Ruandong's video request came through.

She hung up, she doesn't want to video chat with him now.

Then, she wrote another line: "Gu Ruandong, I said I love you, but you've never said you love me."

This is her bottom line, she has already put aside all her pride, begging him for a "I love you".

As long as he says so, at least this relationship is complete.

She was very nervous, her eyes glued to the phone screen, filled with anticipation.

But he seemed to be frightened by her enthusiasm and didn't reply for a long time.

After a long time, only a cold symbol was returned: == (Wait)

Her heart plummeted to the depths of despair.

Remembering the beginning, it was her shameless persistence. She was intensely passionate and clung to him, while he constantly evaded her advances. It was she who tempted and lured him, while he remained elusive.

It seems that Song Keqiu was just being coincidentally and had nothing to do with him. It’s impossible to hide love for someone, isn't it

Gu Ruandong rushed to Beijing again late at night. Xiao Cai, who had been working overtime until late at night, saw him and was anxious.

said busy

"Young Master Gu, the real estate industry conference tomorrow, Gu's is the organizer." This is an annual industry conference, all the bigwigs in real estate are coming, he shouldn't miss it.

"You figure it out."

He has more important things to do.

Some words, of course, should be said face-to-face to show sincerity.

He wasn't a man of sweet words. He also thought she could sense his feelings, so he never said them. But if she wanted to hear, for the first time, of course, he would say it to her face.

He is willing to travel thousands of miles, just for this one sentence, just to give her a surprise.

By the time he got off the plane, it was already around 4 in the morning. The driver took him to the film studio smoothly all the way. They arrived at a little past 5 am.

On the road, he turned on his phone and saw over ten missed calls. They were all from his father, Xu's family, and Xiao Cai.

Xiaocai sent him a news article: The news about the Xu family has spread online.

His father sent: Return to Beijing quickly.

"Xu Mufa said: 'You should take extra care of Zhaozhao.'"

He is not omnipotent. Once the authorities launch a strict investigation into the Xu family's affairs, there will be no way to turn back the tide. All individuals and businesses associated with the Xu family are likely to be implicated.

Gu Ruandong's only solace was that after taking over the Gu family from his father, he had intentionally distanced himself from the Xu family's protection. He had long known this day would come eventually, so he had been prepared.

But, the debt to the Xu family, needs to be repaid, and will be repaid.

As his car drove into the film studio, he saw that many media outlets were already stationed there. Although Xu Zhao had never mentioned his family background while working outside, with the media's current capabilities, what secrets could remain hidden It's just that previously, out of respect for the Xu family, they had kept it under wraps and refrained from reporting.

如

Since the Xu family incident came to light, all these media outlets have camped out here, hoping to get the first-hand information.

Xu Zhao was woken up by her mother's phone call early in the morning. Her mother told her to stay put at the hotel and not go anywhere, as her family was arranging for her to go abroad and she could avoid it for a while.

"Is it really that serious"

Her mother remained relatively composed: "Yes, your father is likely not going to make it this time."

"In that case, do you think I can leave Besides, I have nothing to hide, so there's no need to run. I'm going home now. Don't worry, we'll figure something out."

To say I wasn't worried was a lie, after all, he is my own father. Besides, without the backing of our family name, the road ahead would probably not be as smooth as it used to be.

She rushed downstairs, intending to drive home herself. As soon as she stepped out of the hotel, she saw a group of reporters who had been squatting there suddenly pop up and keep taking her pictures.

She is a top-tier female celebrity, and the family issues are like an earthquake, affecting a wide range of people. So all the media want to dig out some news from her.

Gu Ruantong wasn't planning on dealing with the Xu family's affairs for now. He went to the film studio only for Lu Yaoyao.

However, as soon as he got out of the car, he saw Xu Zhao surrounded by the media.

Xu's mother said: "Take good care of Zhao Zhao."

He couldn't just ignore it.

He wasn't really familiar with Xu Zhao. Even though their elders tried to set them up, he always kept his distance.

Even when they occasionally met due to family matters, he remained reticent and taciturn.

Xuejia's situation this time, there isn't much he can do to help.

But now to help Xu Zhao out of this predicament is just a small favor.

So he pushed through the crowd, walked up to Xu Zhao, grabbed her arm, and pulled her away from the media throng.

This is simply out of consideration for Xu.

The kindness of one's family is also the only thing that can be done for the Xu family right now.

However, trapped Xu Zhao saw him suddenly appear, his eyes lit up, and when he was dragged by him to run towards his car, his mood soared.

This scene was captured by countless media outlets.
