Chapter 1832: Chapter 1832: Rising Star (34)
"Mr.... What are you doing?" The butler was shocked, looking at Gu Yu, who was utterly unkempt and sticking his butt out, peering under the bed.
Gu Yu sprang up, but he got up too quickly and hit his head on the bed with a "bang."
The sound made the butler’s head ache.
Gu Yu held his head, too pained to move for a moment.
"Sir, what are you doing!" The butler hurried forward, "Let me see where you hit?"
"I’m fine." Gu Yu refused the butler’s concern, gritting his teeth, "Did Chuzheng come back?"
"... Miss Qin was here just a while ago."
"Wasn’t she filming? What did she come back for?" Coming back just to scare him, is she here to torture him on purpose!
Who wants to marry her!
Did she ask for his opinion?
"Said she was taking leave to handle something," the butler said responsibly, "Sir, are you really okay?" It looked pretty painful.
Taking leave to handle matters... Gu Yu already had a clue about this matter in his heart now.
"You go out first." He needed peace.
The butler left the room reluctantly, turning back every three steps; Gu Yu rubbed his head and lay on the floor again. Feeling insecure lying there, he got up to close and lock the door.
Gu Yu searched under the bed for a long time, finally finding the ring box that had rolled to the floor when he flipped the quilt.
Gu Yu leaned against the bed, sat on the carpet, and stared at the ring box in his hand, opening it after a long silence.
The ring quietly lay inside; Gu Yu took out the ring and looked at it for a while, finally slipping it onto his finger with a cold expression.
He didn’t wear an engagement ring; now this ring was his only decoration.
"Hmph..."
Gu Yu snapped the ring box shut, pulled out his phone, and dialed Chuzheng.
Once connected, Gu Yu sneered coldly, "Miss Qin, are you so desperate to get married?"
"..." What does ’desperate to get married’ mean? What’s the Good Person Card mad about again?
"What’s going on with the marriage certificate?" She better explain clearly today, or it won’t end.
The girl’s cool voice slowly rang out, "Someone said I was only your fiancée, and it’s uncertain where the final flower will fall, so I let it fall now; any issues?"
Gu Yu: "???"
What the hell about the flower falling?
What jumbled up phrasing!
"Did you ask for my opinion?" Marriage and registration involve both parties, how could she decide for him?
He’s the involved party, he’s the one involved!
"..." Chuzheng paused, deciding to go through the motions to placate her Card, "Mr. Gu, are you willing to register with me?"
Gu Yu: "No."
"Oh." Chuzheng calmly replied, "Then it can’t be helped, we already registered."
Gu Yu: "..."
If she were in front of him, he’d definitely strangle her.
Can she even speak human language!
Fuming, Gu Yu hung up, dialed Old Madam Gu, but she seemed to have anticipated it; both her mobile and landline were unreachable.
Gu Yu: "..."
Gu Yu tossed away his phone and flipped through the quilt for the red booklet he had covered earlier, searching for ages but not finding it, shaking the quilt in frustration.
The red booklet fell out from the quilt, and Gu Yu grabbed scissors to cut it, but paused as the scissors touched the booklet.
No, just cutting it won’t work; during a divorce, it’ll need to be reissued?
Can’t cut it.
Gu Yu threw away the scissors; the red booklet in his hand felt like a hot potato—holding it wasn’t right, nor was leaving it.
Finally, Gu Yu locked it in a cabinet to leave out of sight and mind.
Once she’s back, he’s divorcing!
Why does he have to be married!

After handling that matter, Chuzheng returned to the set, where Aaron was still styling several leading actors. Seeing nothing much to handle, Chuzheng headed straight back to the hotel.
With Aaron the big shot there, even if the leads were tortured, they were very happy.
Building a good relationship with Aaron meant a chance to hire him for styling in the future.
Yet, Aaron was extremely aloof; he faced them with indifference, not even giving out his contact.
Even Qiao Xiyu received a cold shoulder from Aaron.
Qiao Xiyu wanted to get closer to Aaron, but got ignored, infuriating her.
Since her fame grew, she’s always been lifted high, when did she ever suffer this kind of snub?
Knowing that Aaron was invited by Qin Chuzheng, Qiao Xiyu felt even more enraged and jealous.
The crew could sense Qiao Xiyu’s anger and dared not approach her; all discussions happened far away from her.
"Is Aaron really invited by Qin Chuzheng?"
"Yeah... according to his assistant, he’ll stay with the crew until Miss Qin wraps up."
"Really?"
"Should be true."
"Damn!"
"How does Miss Qin know him? I doubted the exaggerations before, but seeing Aaron’s handiwork in styling, I think this really is magic!"
With Aaron staying until Chuzheng’s wrap, the crew was the happiest; they planned to have Aaron do other styles, hoping each lead had seven outfits to summon a Divine Dragon.

The crew was pleased, but Qiao Xiyu was furious.
The subsequent filming went smoothly; Qiao Xiyu troubled Chuzheng several times, only to be bluntly smacked in the face with money.
The crew also noticed, Chuzheng was truly wealthy.
Daily snacks and midnight snacks were provided, not just for the actors; even the staff had been fed well and plumped up.
Qiao Xiyu initially wanted the staff to make things difficult for Chuzheng, but having eaten her food, they were unwilling to cause any trouble for her.
So Qiao Xiyu had to go herself, and after a few embarrassments, dared not cause trouble and acted respectfully for a while.
One day, Chuzheng encountered Qiao Xiyu and Qiao Wei in the hotel elevator.
The two were chatting and laughing; as soon as Chuzheng entered, Qiao Xiyu’s face sank directly, Qiao Wei wasn’t as exaggerated, but her smile faded.
"Miss Qin, long time no see." Qiao Wei greeted proactively.
Chuzheng remained silent.
Qiao Xiyu couldn’t hold back, she said sarcastically, "No manners, lacking basic courtesy."
Chuzheng turned to look at her, her eyes cold and devoid of warmth, causing Qiao Xiyu to flinch as a chill traveled from her feet to her head.
She subconsciously took a step back.
Qiao Wei supported her, preventing her embarrassment.
Why is this woman’s gaze so terrifying?
Ding—
The elevator doors opened, and Chuzheng stepped out directly.
Qiao Wei held the elevator door, "Miss Qin, I won’t give up on Gu Yu, we can compete fairly."
Chuzheng paused, turned around slowly, and said, "Compete fairly?"
Qiao Wei smiled lightly, "Miss Qin, are you scared? In the end, who Gu Yu chooses depends on our skills..."
Qiao Wei hadn’t finished speaking when she suddenly felt like her throat was being squeezed.
The reflection in her beautiful eyes showed a flash of red, clearly emblazoned with Qin Chuzheng and Gu Yu’s names.
That was a marriage certificate...
Qiao Wei’s face turned pale instantly.
They’d already registered their marriage.
Chuzheng tucked the marriage certificate back into her pocket, "Does Qiao Family upbringing lack the rule against being a third wheel?"
