After the Engagement Was Called Off, She Turned Around and Married a Hidden Billionaire

The Xu family went bankrupt, and Xu Yao was heavily indebted. Everyone said that her rich fiancé Shen Yan was Xu Yao's last straw.

Three years later, Xu Yao, however, proactively propose...

128: Marketing accounts say you have a very deep background!

Jiang Zhiyan is one of the few people who has been to Gu Haishan's grave and has some knowledge of Gu Jun's family affairs.

At that time, Jiang Zhiyan was in the cemetery looking at the three tombstones including Gu Haishan's, and he felt extremely heavy.

Jiang Zhiyan knew that Gu Jun's parents divorced when he was very young, and his father died very early. Jiang Zhiyan could guess with his toes that Gu Jun lacked love during his growing up - could this be the reason why Gu Jun was so love-sick?

After Grandpa Gu passed away, Gu Jun had no relatives left.

A person has billions of wealth but no one to share it with. This contrast itself is a great sorrow!

Xu Yao appeared when Gu Jun needed emotional support the most.

Xu Yao can provide emotional value to Gu Jun, and Xu Yao's mother is also good to Gu Jun. No wonder Gu Jun fell so quickly.

Jiang Zhiyan rarely refrained from mocking Gu Jun, and even followed Gu Jun's lead by praising Lin Meixian: "You are indeed a good mother-in-law. You are sensible, well-educated, and treat your son-in-law very well."

Gu Jun was very pleased with Jiang Zhiyan's words.

Lin Meixian is indeed a good mother-in-law.

Lin Meixian's red envelope for Gu Jun was just the beginning. She would often give him small amounts of money for various reasons, sometimes asking him to take Xu Yao out for a nice meal, and sometimes asking him to put on more clothes because it was getting cold. Gu Jun certainly didn't accept Lin Meixian's red envelope, but he did feel her care.

After the celebration, Gu Jun and Xu Yao went home together. In the car, he reminded Xu Yao to call Lin Meixian back:

"Mom is very happy that you won the award. She was worried that it would be inconvenient for you to answer the phone at the venue, so she called me."

"What did Mom say? Oh, it's too late today. I'll call her back tomorrow."

The second-hand nanny car is still very useful. Xu Yao can sit in the car and let Xiaoling help her remove her makeup.

Gu Jun didn't shy away from Xiaoling and Huabin: "Mom asked if I helped you win the award. I said I couldn't make the decision for President Jiang and I wouldn't dare to do anything under President Jiang's nose. Mom was relieved when she heard that."

Xu Yao turned her head and met Gu Jun's eyes.

Gu Jun's eyes were calm, and Xu Yao smiled shyly: "I don't blame Mom for thinking this way. In fact, even I have had such doubts."

"You already doubted it, why didn't you ask me?"

Gu Jun was curious.

Xu Yao was really tired today and couldn't help yawning. "Because it's not convenient to ask at the venue! Then I thought about it calmly and felt that it couldn't be you. I don't doubt your ability in Huahu, but I think you already know me well enough to know that I don't like this kind of 'help', right?"

Gu Jun's eyes were filled with smiles.

He understood Xu Yao, and Xu Yao also understood him.

If this is not love, what is love?

"I won't be so smart as to help you with something like this unless you ask."

Gu Jun made the promise in front of others, and Xu Yao didn't think anything of it. However, Hua Bin's eyelids were already twitching: What he meant was, if Xu Yao asked for help, Gu Jun would be able to help her with anything?

For a man to say such sweet words, he must not only have love but also strength!

Hua Bin couldn't help but probe, "Mr. Gu, when is the right time for us to return the jewelry you helped me borrow?"

Gu Jun was very careful: "I'll take the things home tonight, and someone will come to pick them up tomorrow morning. Keeping such valuable jewelry for another day will increase the risk, so it would be best if it can be returned as soon as possible."

There was no flaw in Gu Jun's answer, and Hua Bin felt that he might have been overthinking it.

A man's ability to get things done isn't always determined by his status, but rather by his wisdom and dedication to the task at hand. Gu Jun happens to be a very intelligent man, and he's also very attentive to Xu Yao's affairs, which is why he seems so capable!

The next morning, someone really came to Shenghai Garden to take away the jewelry that Gu Jun had borrowed.

Xu Yao was half asleep at the time and heard Gu Jun open and close the door. She yawned in her pajamas and asked Gu Jun who he was opening the door for. Gu Jun told her to continue sleeping:

"They came and took the jewels away."

"oh--"

Xu Yao stared blankly at the wall clock. The hand pointed to six o'clock. She was a little surprised: "So early?"

Gu Jun nodded. "This set of jewelry will be exhibited in South City today. I can borrow the jewelry to make up for the time difference."

Xu Yao wanted to say something, but Gu Jun rubbed her head and said, "You must have been exhausted yesterday. Go to sleep for a while and rest up. I'll go to work later so I won't wake you up."

After saying that, Gu Jun kissed her on the cheek, led her back to the room, and considerately helped close the door.

Xu Yao slept soundly and was awakened by the sound of someone knocking on the door.

There were loud bangs, as if a gangster was trying to break in.

Xu Yao jumped up from the bed.

After experiencing bankruptcy liquidation, Xu Yao developed stress disorder, and her first reaction was to tiptoe to look at the cat's eye.

It turned out to be Huabin and Xiaoling standing outside the door.

"What's wrong with you?"

Xu Yao opened the door for them.

Xiaoling looked anxious, "Sister Xu Yao, we're so worried that we can't get through to you on the phone."

It wasn't that Xu Yao's phone was unreachable, but that the mute mode was turned off. There were more than a dozen missed calls and a message from Gu Jun.

Gu Jun asked Xu Yao to call Xiaoling back after she woke up. It seemed that Xiaoling had already found Gu Jun because she was too anxious.

"Tell me, what's the hurry?"

Hua Bin was still grinning, "What else could it be? It's the aftershock of the Talent Celebration."

After a night of fermentation, all the details of the talent celebration were dug up by marketing accounts.

In order to save Xu Yao the time of flipping through the videos one by one, Hua Bin helped Xu Yao summarize three points:

First, the haute couture dress that Li Lanyi wore on the red carpet has been claimed by the brand, and it was indeed borrowed through formal channels. Li Lanyi's fashion resources have become legendary!

Secondly, it was revealed that the dress Tangtang wore on the red carpet was not borrowed, but bought with her own money. The fans who had been cheering for Tangtang were now severely slapped in the face.

Li Lanyi can borrow haute couture, but Tangtang can't even borrow an ordinary dress. Is there any need to say who has the highest status in the circle?

Xu Yao frowned after hearing the second point: "Didn't Wen Yiyi borrow Tangtang's dress? How did she buy it herself?"

Xu Yao felt that Tangtang would not lie to her about such a small matter.

Huabin opened the social media platform and found the brand's official account.

Perhaps the brand was tired of being asked by fans, and publicly responded that there was no record of lending out the dress that Tangtang wore on the red carpet.

So Tangtang’s dress was either “borrowed” from an improper channel, or Tangtang was just trying to make herself look good by claiming that the dress she bought was borrowed.

Xu Yao quickly sent a message to Tangtang to ask what was going on. Tangtang replied with a long voice message, sounding quite calm:

"Wen Yiyi is more of a hindrance than a help. She bought the dress herself and claimed it was loaned to her by the brand. My team had already sent out the press release without knowing about it, and now I'm being accused of being a shill. It's fine on my part; I'll just shamelessly issue a statement. But as for you...are you all right?"

"I'm fine!"

Xu Yao had a very comfortable sleep. Now she is full of energy and can walk the red carpet again without any problem!

Hua Bin poked Xu Yao's shoulder and said, "Well, listen to my third point first. Tangtang was laughed at for pretending to be rich, and you're not much better."

Xu Yao was shocked. "Did you pay for my dress too?"

"How can I afford to buy you a dress?"

Hua Bin refused to claim any unwarranted credit. "I really borrowed your dress! Do you think those netizens will let you off? They've already verified it on the brand's official account, and the brand hasn't denied lending you the dress. The makeup artist I hired is quite capable."

Xu Yao had just woken up and her mind was still not very clear.

Since the brand’s official account didn’t refute her, why are Hua Bin and Xiao Ling so anxious?

Xiaoling mumbled, "Sister Xu Yao, Tangtang was so popular she couldn't even borrow the brand's new dress, and Brother Bin used his personal connections to borrow it for you. What do you think netizens will think? And that sapphire necklace your brother-in-law borrowed for you was revealed today by netizens to be on display at a South City hotel, allegedly a masterpiece. You wore a dress that even the biggest influencers couldn't borrow, and jewelry designed by a master, and you even won Huahu's 'Newcomer of the Year' award, beating influencers with more followers than you... Marketing accounts are saying you have a powerful background!"
