Chapter 132

Nan Tao and the makeup artist followed the assistant director's gaze and saw two people standing a little further inside the door.

Nan Tao was puzzled, and her rising tone was filled with surprise, "Wenbin? Why are you here?"

Wenbin?

It was obvious that he was calling the name of the man next to Gu Xuan.

At this moment, the other people present had different reactions.

The makeup artist and the assistant director all looked at the tall man named Wen Bin, while the director looked at Nan Tao with surprise in his eyes.

Park Wenbin sobered up instantly, his face stiffened slightly, and he looked terrified.

Although he knew that Nan Tao might not be able to see his expression clearly standing outside, he still couldn't control his guilty feeling, and his hands hanging by his sides unconsciously clenched.

After thinking it over for a long time, he decided to answer half-truthfully, "I came to see Gu Xuan for something."

Nan Tao cried out in frustration, stamping her feet as she led the makeup artist back into the room. "It's too cold outside."

The director belatedly remembered Nan Tao's ability to eat melons, and followed her in worriedly.

The assistant director was completely confused and just followed the crowd in.

Nan Tao chuckled. "I heard you've been busy lately. I didn't expect you'd come to see Teacher Gu so late. Are you two familiar with each other? Are you busy with work?"

The director broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this.

The makeup artist's eyes were rolling around, with a gossipy look on her face.

The assistant director was bewildered.

After Park Wenbin's panic, he calmed down. After thinking it over, he carefully replied, "Just an ordinary friend. I'm looking for him to handle some work matters."

Gu Xuan sneered, but the smile did not reach his eyes, and was filled with coldness.

Nan Tao frantically resisted the urge to laugh out loud, forcing herself to divert her attention and look at Gu Xuan with surprise and concern, "Teacher Gu, why is your mouth cut and bleeding? I don't think I saw it during the filming this afternoon."

Park Wenbin's self-possessed composure vanished, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his mind went blank, and panic reached its peak. He was afraid that Gu Xuan would say something he shouldn't, so he instinctively answered, "He just accidentally fell down."

Gu Xuan snorted coldly, expressionless, without refutation, as if he agreed with this statement.

Nan Tao dragged out the last word and said "oh".

The long-drawn "oh" was like a hammer hitting Park Wenbin's heart. He began to suspect that Nan Tao had seen him and Gu Xuan being intimate in the dressing room.

But on second thought, it seemed unlikely. Nan Tao had obviously just arrived and it was impossible for her to know about him and Gu Xuan.

This young lady is spoiled and willful. If she caught him betraying Yu Xue, she would not react like this.

No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet.

The director's forehead started throbbing when he saw the atmosphere.

Park Moon-bin is the major investor of the crew and cannot be provoked. Nan Tao seems to be very familiar with President Park and his background should not be easy to offend either.

The key point is that President Park looks unhappy and seems to be very reluctant to let Nan Tao know about the relationship between him and Gu Xuan.

The director was also afraid that someone would know that Gu Xuan had a financial backer, the crew's largest investor, and crucially, a male sponsor. If this kind of superfluous influence were exposed, it would definitely be a fatal blow to the crew. He quickly tried to smooth things over, "Mr. Park is the crew's largest investor. He's probably looking for Teacher Gu to discuss the script. They're just ordinary friends, just ordinary friends."

Nan Tao nodded, "I see. Then I won't interrupt you guys from talking about work. I'll go in to get something, and you guys can continue chatting."

Park Wenbin: "I help you?"

Nan Tao: "It's okay, it's just a small sun, it's very light, just go ahead and do your thing."

Park Wenbin asked casually, "Did you just finish filming and come back to pick up something? Why didn't you ask your assistant to help you get it, but you came here in person?"

Nan Tao smiled and said, "It's too cold, let's get up and move around. It's not far anyway. My makeup artist just happened to be back to get something, so she came over with us."

The makeup artist nodded repeatedly to indicate that there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Park Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his lips, which had been stiff all the time, finally returned to normal. He smiled naturally and said, "Are you tired from filming? Do you want me to talk to the director?"

Nan Tao waved her hands quickly, "Please don't do that. I don't want people to say I'm a big shot. I didn't expect you to be the investor of this TV series."

Park Moon-bin: "I only learned about the company's investment projects when I was reviewing the accounts not long ago."

Nan Tao said "oh" twice in a very innocent way, "I won't talk to you anymore, just continue with your business."

Park Wenbin stared at Nan Tao's back until she disappeared from his sight. The smile on the corners of his lips gradually faded, and his lips were pursed into a straight line. The coldness in his eyes was frightening.

The director and assistant director felt their scalps tingle and wanted to wipe their feet clean and follow Nan Tao and the makeup artist away.

Gu Xuan still had a sneering look on his face, with sneer and ridicule in his eyes.

The director sighed and asked the assistant director to leave first.

After the assistant director left, only three people who knew the truth were left.

Of course, the director didn't want to stay there any longer, as it was awkward and suffocating, but out of responsibility for the TV series, he had to say some ugly words about the situation.

After careful consideration, he said cautiously, "Mr. Park, there are so many people on the set and they're all gossipy. From now on, when you're with your little one, no, Teacher Gu, could you please be a little more careful about the setting? After all, if it gets exposed online, it won't be good for everyone."

These words were like a slap in the face, hitting Gu Xuan hard.

The director was still mumbling, "It's me tonight. What if someone accidentally bumps into us one day? Mr. Park, please don't think I'm being harsh. If I hadn't come early to interrupt you, what if Teacher Nan and the young makeup artist saw you in the dressing room? Sigh... I can't do anything about it. I'm worried. It's not easy to deal with this kind of thing if someone finds out. The Internet is so developed now. If people knew that Gu Xuan was your lover, not only would your investment be wasted, but Teacher Gu's acting career would basically be over. I say all this from the bottom of my heart, so please don't think I'm being nosy."

Gu Xuan's face looked very ugly, his hands were clenched into fists, his eyes were full of anger and strong unwillingness.

Park Wenbin ignored Gu Xuan's anger and the director's nagging, and asked coldly, "What role does Nan Tao play in your crew?"

The director was completely baffled by the sudden question and asked cautiously, "Ah, Mr. Park, are you interested in Teacher Nan?"

Park Moon Bin threw a dagger at the director, "What the hell are you dreaming of?"

Gu Xuan sneered: "He wouldn't dare."

The director figured out from what the two people said that Teacher Nan had an extraordinary identity and background, and even President Park didn't dare to approach him. He was instantly frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly reflected on whether he had accidentally offended Teacher Nan since the crew started filming.

After thinking about it over and over again, I realized that there shouldn't be any, and I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The director asked tentatively, "Teacher Nan plays the female lead in the play. What is your relationship with Mr. Park?"

Gu Xuan sneered, "He doesn't dare to say it. If the eldest lady finds out that it was your President Park who leaked it, do you think President Park will be in trouble?"

Park Wenbin had a headache, "Gu Xuan, shut up!"

Then he looked at the director and ordered him to leave.

After the director left, the huge dressing room returned to its original state, with only Park Wenbin and Gu Xuan there.

Park Wenbin pinched Gu Xuan's jaw and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"

Gu Xuan sneered, "Are you scared?"

Park Moon Bin: “You are blaming me.”

Gu Xuan: "I dare not."

Park Wenbin sighed, pulled the person closer, buried his head in the crook of his neck, and bit hard.

Gu Xuan gasped in pain, "Are you born in the Year of the Dog?"

Park Wenbin chuckled softly, "Don't worry, no one dares to say anything. If there's any buzz online, I'll handle it and there won't be any exposure."

Gu Xuan said coldly: "What if it's Nan Tao?"

Park Wenbin loosened his tie irritably. "She probably doesn't know. Just don't say anything."

Gu Xuan: "If you do this again in the future, I can't guarantee that she won't be unaware of it. You should be very clear about the consequences if she knows."

Park Wenbin laughed angrily, "You heartless little thing, who am I doing this today because of? Why didn't I come to the crew and let you flirt with other men?"

Gu Xuan: "Whatever you want, you're not afraid of me worrying about you."

Park Moon Bin: "I know I've wronged you. Give me some more time, and I'll find a way to resolve my engagement with Yu Xue."

Gu Xuan: "Don't let me down. You said you wouldn't marry her."

Park Wenbin was silent. The two of them had argued countless times about this issue, and he didn't want to start a quarrel at this time. He changed the subject and said, "Come to my apartment tomorrow night, okay? I'll ask the director for leave for you."

However, things don't always go as planned.

Two days passed in a flash, and during the Friday night rush hour, the entry #Gu Xuan and a strange man suspected to be his sponsor were being intimate in the dressing room# became a hot search on Weibo, and its popularity exploded.

Nan Tao read the hot search comments and secretly felt relieved.

I didn't expect that there was someone else eavesdropping besides me that night. Fortunately, I didn't run into him, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing.

Judging from the photos and audio timeline released by the paparazzi, he should have been squatting in the corner before her.

I thought they just started when she was squatting in the corner, but it turns out they had already gone through a round.

Things that appeared on the trending searches were quickly removed from the search results, and it was obvious that someone was spending money to remove trending searches and delete comments.

But you can’t stop talking about netizens. The more you delete comments, the more rebellious they become.

Those who had previously supported the couple Gu Xuan and Qiu Jun were instantly furious as if they had eaten shit, and they all scolded Gu Xuan for being shameless, saying that he had the best deal while having the best in the bowl, and that since he had a financial sponsor, he should not have been ambiguous with Qiu Jun.

Passersby commented that they didn't expect Gu Xuan to be actually gay.

Nan Tao switched to her secondary account, enthusiastically liked the popular comments, and read the comments with great interest.

However, the power of capital is still very great. In less than four hours, the hot search completely disappeared from the rankings.

Apart from the netizens who saw the hot search and were still discussing it, the netizens who came later basically had no idea what was going on. The curious netizens jumped up and down, using various code words to get the whole melon.

Nan Tao admires netizens' ability to eat melons.

She didn't need to worry now, just enjoy the show. Anyway, she had already told Yu Zhengyang about Park Wenbin and Gu Xuan, as well as the audio recording that night, and left it all to him to handle. With her brain, she was definitely no match for Ah Yang.

A few days ago, Ayang said that he had already started making plans and asked her to stay in the crew with peace of mind and not think about anything else. He would wait until the time came to close the net and find a suitable opportunity to make it clear to Xiaoxue.

Maybe the hot topic tonight is related to Ayang.

Nan Tao smiled and opened WeChat to send a text message:

－－－Husband, were you the one who made this hot search tonight?

Maybe he was busy over there, so he replied ten minutes later:

---Um.

－－－Don’t get too tired while filming, go to bed early.

－－－Then why did you ask him to remove the trending search?

－－－Let him think it was an accident and let down his guard.

－－－Husband, husband, have you known about the relationship between Park Wenbin and Gu Xuan for a long time? Otherwise, why did you predict it and arrange paparazzi in advance?

---No.

Nan Tao was curious and didn't understand why this hot search was arranged if there was nothing.

－－－Then how did you know there were paparazzi taking photos? And you said you didn't arrange it in advance, huh. Rolling eyes.jpg

－－－I don’t know, it’s not me.

－－－？ ？ ？ Don’t you want to tell me?

－－－I don’t want to tell you that the company that the paparazzi belongs to is my personal asset. The president knew something about the relationship and communicated with me in advance.

－－－Wife, don’t be angry.

Nan Tao was feeling very happy, holding her phone in her hands and laughing foolishly, and she couldn't help but act coquettishly and sweetly.

Just as I was reluctantly ending the chat, a WeChat message from Yu Xue popped up on the top of the screen.

－－－Sister-in-law, have you seen the trending searches on the Internet?

－－－Park Wenbin said it was fake, and said that Gu Xuan was worried that I would misunderstand, so he invited Wenbin and me to dinner to explain it clearly.

－－－Should I agree?
