Chapter 1017: Chapter 1017: The Weak Deserve to Die
Gu Shiyan and Song Chen arrived at the Gu Family Villa last night.
The main reason was that Mrs. Gu was very worried about Sheng Tang.
She was afraid that if Sheng Tang’s movie had issues, she would be deeply affected.
Song Chen specially came over to tell his mother-in-law that Tangtang had a strategy to handle things.
Later, just as expected, Sheng Tang pressured the Jingning Times into a difficult position.
And once the official media took sides, many other media outlets followed suit, supporting Sheng Tang.
Gu Shiyan saw this morning’s news at the breakfast table and confirmed the official stance, only then did she feel at ease to joke with her parents.
"...It’s true, and it’s not something Tangtang’s team fabricated. It seems that initially, it was Zheng Weiwei who spread the word." Gu Shiyan said.
"Is it really that effective?"
"So far, yes. For the time being, every movie she’s in seems to turn bad luck into good." Gu Shiyan said with a smile.
Mrs. Gu also shook her head with a smile: "It’s better not to say such things."
"It’s unavoidable, it’s already widely spread." Gu Shiyan said.
Song Chen nodded: "Now every film project proposal on the market passes through Tangtang’s hands. Though her box office numbers aren’t highest right now, her status certainly is."
Mrs. Gu sighed in relief with satisfaction.
"Mom, if our Huishi Entertainment has any projects, we could consider collaborating with Tangtang." Gu Shiyan said.
"I’m afraid she’d want to avoid suspicion." Mrs. Gu said, "She didn’t come over last night. What’s really going on between her and Ting?"
"They’re definitely together." Gu Shiyan confirmed, "Perhaps Tangtang doesn’t dare to make it public, given her parents..."
"That’s not really an issue, either." Mr. Gu chimed in.
Mrs. Gu replied, "There’s nothing that’s not an issue. Whether they get married or not doesn’t matter; after all, Ting owes his life to Tangtang, let them be."
"Mom, aren’t you looking forward to having grandkids?" Gu Shiyan teased.
"Do I look like I have the time?" Mrs. Gu glared at her daughter, "I work myself to exhaustion every day and now that I’ve finally reached retirement age, should I become a nanny? Get lost."
Song Chen couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Mr. Gu also shook his head helplessly.
Unlike Mrs. Gu, Mr. Gu actually likes children more.
Gu Shiting hadn’t slept all night either.
He kept an eye on the online situation until this morning’s news confirmed the whole incident, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He called Sheng Tang, but her phone was turned off.
Gu Shiting thought she must be sleeping, so he didn’t call again.
Sheng Tang was indeed catching up on sleep.
Gu Jiahui went to work as usual; his health was much better than Sheng Tang’s.
Once at the office, he received a call from his father.
"Handled nicely," his father rarely praised him, "You really showed adaptability."
"It was Sheng Tang’s idea."
"Stop attributing every good thing to that woman, are you really so enamored by her? It’s unnecessary, quite laughable." Gu You said.
In Gu You’s view, deep affection is a disgusting emotion, both laughable and weak.
Gu Jiahui didn’t argue with him.
Gu You said a few more words and then hung up.
Gu Jiahui sat alone in his office, silent for a few seconds, then revealed a faint smile.
Indeed, there’s no real demon in this world.
As long as he’s strong enough, he can defeat anyone, even bullies like Gu You.
He had succeeded.
Gu You calling to praise him was unprecedented.
"You’re old, you’re weak." He tightly gripped the cup on the table, "You say weakness deserves death, and so do you!"
Gu Jiahui couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Today truly is a good day.
