Chapter 14: Taking Responsibility for Every Word

"Brother Shen, this isn't appropriate..."

"Besides, how did I explain to the company that I didn't stop you from doing this..." Feng Xu rubbed his throbbing temples, thinking to himself.

Gu Yishen glanced at Feng Xu indifferently, and Feng Xu immediately fell silent, but his anxiety did not diminish at all.

Gu Yishen knew a long time ago that Feng Xu was someone the company kept a close eye on.

The company's bigwigs all thought they were incredibly shrewd, monitoring the artists' every move from every angle.

Little did they know, Feng Xu had already been turned by Gu Yishen and was now working with him to carry out "counter-espionage."

On the surface, Feng Xu was still an "undercover agent" placed by Sega next to Gu Yishen, but in reality, Feng Xu became the key to Gu Yishen's access to first-hand information within the company.

In the past few years of Gu Yishen's struggles in the entertainment industry, he has been able to get to where he is today with a clean record and achieve such success. To be honest, Feng Xu deserves a lot of credit for him.

Actually, the so-called "leaked" photo on Weibo today was taken by Feng Xu when he was with Gu Yishen on set and sent to the company when no one was looking.

Feng Xu informed Gu Yishen immediately upon receiving the company's order, and Gu Yishen, as always, followed the instructions.

However, Gu Yishen would always discuss with Feng Xu in advance a solution that would prevent the company from taking advantage of him while also leaving the company with no room for error.

Most importantly, it won't make the company think that Feng Xu is incompetent.

This time is different, though.

Feng Xu was wondering why he had cooperated so obediently this time without Shen Ge giving him any instructions.

He thought that Brother Shen had changed his ways and stopped arguing with the company, but little did he know that Brother Shen had dug a hole for himself!

"What do you think is the biggest characteristic of those big shots, or Sega at present?" Gu Yishen asked Feng Xu.

Feng Xu mentally reviewed the names of the company's senior executives, then frowned and shook his head.

"So, what do you think of Sega compared to Jingting?"

As soon as Gu Yishen asked his second question, Feng Xu's expression immediately became as awkward as his slightly frizzy hair.

"Well... Brother Shen, as everyone knows, Sega and Jingting are both... quite famous..."

She's really famous!

Sega and Jingting, two top companies, are practically household names in the industry.

However, Sega is truly the number one entertainment company, while Jingting...

It's a "first" company that's hard to describe in a few words.

"Hehe." Looking at Feng Xu's reaction, Gu Yishen chuckled, "Sega's biggest characteristic is its arrogance."

"..."

It wasn't that Feng Xu didn't want to respond; it was just that... he had never thought of this before, but Gu Yishen's sudden mention of it made him realize that it was quite right!

"Sega's intervention is simply because they think Lorca is doomed this time, and Sega will be his last lifeline."

Feng Xu nodded hurriedly, which was similar to the information the company had given him. After all, it wasn't a secret that Sega wanted to poach Luo Jia.

"Xu Zi, let's make a bet."

"Huh? What are we betting on?" Feng Xu asked, looking completely bewildered.

Gu Yishen raised a confident smile: "I'm betting that Sega is blindly confident and hasn't paid attention to Luo Jia's movements. I'm betting that this kid will not only fail to win, but will even... turn the tide."

Feng Xu's temples, which had just calmed down a little, throbbed again.

"That's right... The situation wasn't so clear to begin with, but your Weibo post really helped them turn the tide..."

...

[Gu Yishen V: I have no intention of riding the wave of popularity; I was simply dragged into this for no reason. I had no prior personal relationship with @LuoJia, but we had the pleasure of working together, and the process was very pleasant. We will remain good friends. Regarding the claim that #LuoJia was once a sasaeng fan, I can confirm that LuoJia did not do that. Unfortunately, I am the person involved in the incident LuoJia mentioned. The above represents only my personal opinion, and I will stand by every word.]

Jingting Entertainment.

After reading Gu Yishen's Weibo post with great emotion, not only President Wang and Yu Jiu, but even Luo Jiayin herself was a little stunned.

Is Gu Yishen out of his mind? Doesn't he know how much Sega wants to destroy him right now? And he's so openly speaking up for him.

Moreover... just as he said, aside from filming "Raven" together and having a few scenes together, she and Gu Yishen were complete strangers!

"Luo Jia is trending again..." Xiao Liu muttered to himself as he kept refreshing the page.

Without thinking twice, Luo Jiayin quickly took out her phone and opened Weibo.

really.

#Luo Jiacheng and Gu Yishen are the first people to follow each other on Weibo

#The original owner of the Luo Jia sasaeng fan incident was actually Gu Yishen

She scrolled through her countless unread messages and was surprised to find that Gu Yishen had indeed followed her.

Is it possible that you accidentally clicked the wrong button due to a shaky hand? You should have unfollowed them afterward, right?

Luo Jiayin clicked into Gu Yishen's Weibo homepage.

The Weibo post that Xiao Liu just read is right there, and it already has quite a few comments and reposts.

She clicked on Gu Yishen's following list.

Sega Entertainment, Gu Yishen's unethical company.

Lao Tan Shuan Cai, their director of "Raven" Tan Weiming.

Hold on tight to your villainous role, she and Gu Yishen have already confirmed their participation in that variety show.

Luo Jia, she...

Luo Jiayin: "..."

She really is... one of a kind.

Almost everyone knows that Gu Yishen has a habit of never actively following anyone on Weibo.

Even for promotional purposes, he only follows the company accounts of brands, promotional accounts for new dramas, or promotional accounts for variety shows, such as "Hold on tight to villainous scripts."

After the event ends, Gu Yishen will unfollow him.

Strictly speaking, Luo Jia cannot be said to be the first person Gu Yishen paid attention to, after all, there was also Tan Weiming in the picture.

However, through the "popular science" of netizens, Luo Jiayin also learned that Tan Weimin was not only Gu Yishen's mentor, but also a close friend and mentor to Gu Yishen despite their age difference.

That's why Gu Yishen came to the rescue for "Raven".

Luo Jiayin returned to Gu Yishen's homepage and carefully studied the Weibo post he had made.

From Gu Yishen's last sentence, Luo Jiayin could tell that Gu Yishen posted the Weibo message privately, and it seemed that he had not informed Sega beforehand.

Unlike Luo Jiayin, he didn't write a lengthy essay. He seemed aloof and somewhat sparing with words, yet he expressed his thoughts vividly.

Luo Jiayin summarized it.

First, he didn't intend to ride the wave of popularity, but he did anyway. And he kept doing it!

Second, he was not involved in her past, but he wanted to be her brother in the future.

Third, he was the unpopular and unlucky idol that Luo Jiayin mentioned back then...

Gu Yishen is the kind of person who would disdain telling such a lie, and besides, Gu Yishen has no reason to tell such a lie just to speak up for her.

Is it really such a coincidence?

Luo Jiayin fell into deep thought...
