Let's Squander A Billion First!
Chapter 1822: Tomorrow’s Star (24)
Gu Yu: [Image][Image]
Chuzheng received the images sent by Gu Yu in the middle of the night, feeling complicated.
These are all the original owner’s dark history, why send them to her!
That pig of an original owner!! 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Chuzheng cursed the original owner repeatedly in her heart.
After Gu Yu sent the images, he went offline, leaving Chuzheng unsure of his intentions. She was too lazy to respond to him—mainly because she didn’t know how to.
Anyway, now that sovereignty has been declared, she also went offline.
A group of fans was excited, but the involved parties had both gone offline.
Over on Fu Xingchen’s side, there’s news that the person involved is an assistant by his side, named Nian Yue.
Nian Yue has been with Fu Xingchen for a short time, so many fans aren’t aware. Now, someone posted a photo, and upon comparison, Nian Yue indeed looks more like the person in the photos.
No matter who Fu Xingchen’s partner really is, the fans couldn’t accept it.
So earlier it was Chuzheng being scolded, but now the focus has shifted to Nian Yue.
Gu Yu and Fu Xingchen’s fans started minding their business.
Overnight, losing two idols, this group of fans wailed all night.
Gu Yu confirmed Chuzheng’s identity. Even though Little Feathers are unwilling, they have to accept the fact that their idol has a partner.
After cursing her, this group of fans tearfully went to follow Chuzheng, resulting in her gaining over a million followers overnight.
[You don’t even have a single work, how can you have the nerve to be with our idol, looking like this, you’re embarrassing our idol!]
[I want to ask, is the idol going to come back?]
[Please act well, work hard to keep up with the idol’s pace, only excellent people can be with excellent people, you have to work hard!]
Apart from those harsh comments, comments like these were the most common.
Chuzheng: "???"
What’s with this encouraging tone? Are you all going to jump ship?
Feathers: Jumping ship is impossible; they just don’t want the idol’s partner to have such low popularity. How can that be worthy of their idol! As dedicated fans, it’s their duty to urge the idol’s partner to strive for progress! Act well, strive to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the idol soon, so they can be at ease.
They can’t change who the idol likes, making a fuss is useless, being unable to accept means they can only stop being a fan, but now that the idol is almost leaving the circle, whether they stop being fans or not doesn’t matter at all.
So... they can only let the idol’s chosen partner become more outstanding, so they can feel a bit better inside.
After reading these comments, Chuzheng pulled out her phone to message Gu Yu.
-
Gu Yu slept early and got up early, did a training session with a rehabilitation therapist first thing in the morning, and took a shower afterward.
Old Madam Gu was at the dining table scrolling on her phone with great interest; he went over, but she didn’t look up.
Just as Gu Yu finished getting ready, his phone vibrated. Old Madam Gu glanced at him; Gu Yu looked over as she retracted her gaze, pretending to look at her phone.
Gu Yu: "..."
Gu Yu tapped open his phone, and Chuzheng’s message showed up on the screen.
Qin Chuzheng: Are your fans all this weird?
Fans are weird? Dropping such a line so early in the morning, I think you’re the weird one.
Gu Yu set the phone aside, and Old Madam Gu softly asked, "Is it from Xiao Chu?"
"No."
"I saw it."
"...You saw, but still ask! When did your eyesight get so good, Madam?"
Old Madam Gu snorted: "Why didn’t you reply? When a girl takes the initiative to message you, not replying is unacceptable, blah blah blah..."
Gu Yu, with a headache, picked back up the phone, edited a reply.
Gu Yu: ...
Old Madam Gu didn’t see what Gu Yu replied, but she didn’t ask further upon seeing he replied: "Eat breakfast, eat breakfast. Later, you should deliver a loving breakfast to Xiao Chu."
Gu Yu almost spat the water he was drinking: "Cough cough cough... Deliver what?"
"Loving breakfast." Old Madam Gu said: "Xiao Chu was filming last night and still needs to shoot this morning, she likely hasn’t eaten yet. Stop eating, hurry and deliver to Xiao Chu, don’t let her go hungry, girls shouldn’t be starved, one might develop stomach problems later, and that wouldn’t be good."
Before Gu Yu even had a chance to pick up his chopsticks, Old Madam Gu hurried him out of the house.
Old Madam Gu watched Gu Yu leave, sighed and said: "That brat should get out more, he’s cooped up at home all the time, he’ll run into trouble eventually."
The butler chimed in: "Recently, the young master’s complexion seems better than before."
"Right, the little girl from the Qin Family is a good child..." Old Madam Gu chuckled, plotting something unknown.
The butler silently mourned for Gu Yu for a second.
Old Madam Gu, too, wanted the best for the young master. Ever since the incident, he was always holed up at home, rarely going out. Even the doctors advised him to step out, adjust his mood, but he just wouldn’t listen.
Old Madam Gu could only call him back to the old house, but he’d still stay cooped up in his room, hardly going anywhere, making rounds didn’t help any.
Now it was better, Old Madam Gu found a new method to get Gu Yu to go out...
-
Gu Yu, feeling annoyed, was pushed out of the old house, questioning who was really blood-related here!! Your grandson hasn’t even eaten yet!! Why send breakfast to that scheming woman!
"Young master..." the bodyguard called out: "Are we going to the film set?"
"Go? What ’go’?" Gu Yu replied with a cold face: "Back to the villa."
"But Madam..."
Gu Yu gave him a look, and the bodyguard immediately fell silent, got Gu Yu into the car, and drove towards the villa.
Want me to deliver breakfast, no way!!
An hour later, Gu Yu’s car was parked outside the film set.
True delight can be late but never absent.
He wouldn’t have come if it weren’t for grandma’s coercion.
Gu Yu reassured himself internally, gesturing for the bodyguard to call Chuzheng out.
The bodyguard had barely gotten off the car when Gu Yu changed his mind, asking the bodyguard to push him inside.
Gu Yu donned a mask and sunglasses; since it was still early and there weren’t many people nearby, Gu Yu went unnoticed on his way.
The bodyguard negotiated with the guards somehow, pushing him smoothly inside.
Returning to the familiar set, Gu Yu’s expression turned slightly bland, but deep in his eyes, there was an undetectable hint of melancholy.
Chuzheng and Fu Xingchen were shooting a scene together, where Chuzheng’s character Liang Muyun clashes with the male lead early in the morning.
They had filmed some parts already, and were now shooting the final shots between Chuzheng and Fu Xingchen.
Gu Yu stopped at the outer part, looking inward.
The girl in the center of the lights still wore a simple shirt paired with a knee-length A-line skirt. The skirt, designed simply, gave off an air of cleanliness and efficiency on her.
"What role is she playing?" Gu Yu asked the bodyguard behind him.
The bodyguard seemed well-prepared, answered swiftly: "A businesswoman powerhouse."
Businesswoman powerhouse?
Gu Yu curled his fingers, resting his chin on them, watching the person over there.
This might be the first time Gu Yu watched his fiancée act...
