Chapter 1835: Chapter 1835: Tomorrow’s Star (37)
Gu Yu calmed down for a moment, deciding not to bicker with her.
A real man wouldn’t argue with a woman over petty things. I’ll just give way to her!
Gu Yu, with a cold expression, pulled the blanket off Chuzheng and took it to the sofa.
Chuzheng: "..."
How can a Good Person Card be so petty?
Gu Yu lay on the sofa scrolling through his phone. Chuzheng didn’t start a conversation with him, and he didn’t speak either. They stayed quietly to themselves.
The time unknowingly reached midnight, and Gu Yu put down his phone, preparing to sleep.
He glanced over at Chuzheng. The young girl was lying on her side, her slender figure somewhat pitiful in the dim light of the night.
Gu Yu snorted coldly to himself and lay down directly.
However, within a minute, he sat up again and went over to cover her with the blanket.
The room had a constant temperature system, so it didn’t feel cold, but if you fall asleep without a blanket, it’s still easy to catch a cold.
Gu Yu tucked the blanket snugly, turned off the nearby lamp, and the whole room plunged into darkness.
-
Gu Yu woke up quite early the next day, wanting to see how Chuzheng left. Instead, she casually pulled a key out of her pocket.
Gu Yu: "..."
This bastard!
From then on, whenever Chuzheng returned, she would inevitably run into his room.
Whenever Gu Yu heard the sound of a car outside, he would rush upstairs at the first opportunity and lock the door!
But no matter how he locked it, Chuzheng always managed to come in, making Gu Yu want to move houses out of anger.
"Sir, you don’t look well?" The Butler’s worried face: "Did you not rest well?"
Gu Yu: "..."
Late last night, Chuzheng came back in the middle of the night after he had already fallen asleep. She climbed in through the window. Can you imagine the feeling of suddenly hearing a noise and seeing someone climbing in?
Gu Yu had a bunch of random nightmares; how could he look good?
And then, she left before dawn. He doesn’t even know what she came back for those few hours for.
Gu Yu didn’t want to talk about it, and the Butler, quite perceptive, didn’t press further: "Sir, the old lady said you’ve been recovering well recently, and there’s nothing much wrong. You can visit the company more often."
Gu Yu: "..."
Not really interested.
Whether Gu Yu wanted to or not, he had to go.
It’s impossible for him to return to the entertainment industry. The Gu Family letting him play in the entertainment industry for so many years was already lenient.
Gu Yu suspected that when he injured his legs, the Gu Family parents were more than happy, as it meant he couldn’t return to the entertainment industry.
And as a CEO, whether or not he could use his legs wasn’t really that important.
Sure enough, upon returning to the company, he was immediately given tasks, plunging him into a busy phase.
While Gu Yu was struggling at the company, Chuzheng’s side was almost wrapping up her film shoot. On the day her scenes finished, she treated the whole crew to a meal.
Director Xie, having drunk quite a bit of alcohol, started talking with Chuzheng: "When Gu Yu recommended you to me back then, I was a bit unsure; but you turned out to be quite good."
"..." Of course, I am.
"I really didn’t expect Gu Yu to secretly be in a relationship..." Director Xie sighed: "He was the nation’s male god. You better hold on to him."
"..." We’ve never dated.
Chuzheng, thinking of this, flashed a glance, raising her glass to clink with the director.
Before the director could finish speaking, Chuzheng suddenly did this, so he had no choice but to finish his drink.
Director Xie put down his glass: "If there’s a suitable role in the future, I’ll surely find you. Save some time for me."
Chuzheng rarely participated in activities and took roles very casually—primarily because there weren’t many roles she liked, so she had plenty of free time.
Director Xie, drunk and talkative, made Chuzheng resist the urge to knock him out and finally found someone to listen on her behalf.
After the meal, everyone dispersed.
Director Xie had someone to take him, and Chuzheng was the last to leave.
"Miss Qin."
Cheng Mu called out to Chuzheng.
Chuzheng nodded: "Do you have something, Mr. Cheng?"
"Miss Qin, just call me Cheng Mu," Cheng Mu said. "It was a pleasant collaboration this time. I hope we can work together again if the opportunity arises."
-
Gu Yu, from a distance, saw Chuzheng standing with a man. The man wore a mask, making it hard to see his face, but his posture and demeanor didn’t seem ordinary.
Gu Yu coldly closed the car window: "Drive."
"Sir, aren’t we picking up Miss Qin?" the bodyguard asked in confusion. Didn’t they come all this way to pick up Miss Qin?
"Pick her up for what?" Gu Yu sneered: "Who told you I came to pick her up?"
Bodyguard: "..."
The bodyguard sensed Gu Yu’s anger and dared not say more, starting the car to leave.
At that moment, the back seat door was suddenly opened, and someone got in. The bodyguard took a glance in the rearview mirror, quickly withdrawing his gaze. Should he drive off or not?
"Weren’t you having a pleasant chat with someone?" Gu Yu glanced at her: "Why didn’t you have him take you back?"
"???"
What’s gotten into him?
[He’s jealous,] the Bastard System reminded.
Chuzheng, no longer her old self, went along with it: "Jealous?"
Gu Yu’s eyes instantly shifted, looking aside.
"Who’s jealous!" Gu Yu coldly huffed: "I just hope Miss Qin will avoid suspicion. If the media catches us and it causes a stir with grandma, it will upset her."
Chuzheng raised an eyebrow: "You and Qiao Wei before..."
Gu Yu: "Go home!"
"You’re feeling guilty."
"What am I guilty about?"
"Do you like Qiao Wei?"
"I don’t like her." Qiao Wei was just an acquaintance; he had no feelings for her.
Chuzheng pursued: "Then who do you like?"
"I..." Gu Yu glared at Chuzheng: "Why should I tell you who I like?"
"I’m legally your wife now. Shouldn’t I know?"
"Legally?" Gu Yu sneered: "You know perfectly well whether it’s legal or not."
Chuzheng pulled out a little red book, shoving it in front of Gu Yu: "Black and white, how is it not legal?"
Gu Yu: "..."
She’s crazy!
Why does she carry that thing around!!
Gu Yu had previously searched her room when she wasn’t around.
He found a bunch of disorganized luxury items but never a marriage certificate. It turns out she carried it with her at all times!
Gu Yu took a deep breath: "Doesn’t it concern you how you got that thing?"
Chuzheng, with righteous indignation: "Issued by the state."
Gu Yu: "..."
Sorry, he can’t win against her. Maybe it’s because his face isn’t as thick as hers, and she dares to lie with her eyes wide open and even say it with such confidence.
Calm down!
Gu Yu calmed himself internally and said: "When shall we go and get divorced."
"Divorce?"
The bodyguards at the front all jolted, perking up their ears to listen.
"Not a chance, don’t even think about it," Chuzheng stuffed the little red book back into her pocket.
Gu Yu: "Do you find this fun? We never had any feelings before. Is this the marriage you wanted?"
What I want is only you.
Chuzheng calmly replied: "Can’t feelings be developed?"
"..." Develop a potato! And you say feelings can be developed just like that.
