Chapter 658 Fighting in the Arena "It's not a Western fantasy." Gu Luo denied, "It's an entertainment industry story, but a different kind of entertainment industry novel."

"A different kind of entertainment industry novel?" Universe's curiosity was completely piqued, and he kept asking, "What exactly is it like? Is it about the rise of a top star, or the underdog story of a producer? Do you have a specific outline or direction?"

Hearing the urgent questions on the other end of the phone, a sly glint flashed in Gu Luo's eyes, and he deliberately kept her in suspense:

"Let me keep you in suspense for now. I'll organize my thoughts and send them to you after the annual meeting."

"You...you're deliberately teasing me!" Yu Zhou's voice was full of helplessness, yet also tinged with anticipation.

"Alright, alright, I'll be waiting! Just don't let me down!"

Gu Luo chuckled and was about to reply when the sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped.

He said into the phone, "I have to go now, something came up at home. We'll discuss the annual meeting later."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Luo got up and walked towards the bathroom door. Just as he was about to call out to Gu Ximan, the door was opened, and Gu Ximan, wrapped in a bath towel, poked her head out, her hair dripping wet.

"Hey bro, who are you talking to on the phone for so long?"

"Let's talk about the annual meeting with the editor." Gu Luo casually picked up a dry towel from the side and handed it over.

"Dry your hair quickly, don't catch a cold."

As for the idea of ​​the new book and his upcoming meeting with Zhao Shuo, he didn't mention it again, as if these were just insignificant little episodes.

The steam in the bathroom hadn't completely dissipated when Gu Ximan dried herself with a towel, casually tossing it onto a shelf, and walked towards the bed without any attempt to conceal herself.

Moonlight streamed through the window screen, illuminating her and outlining her smooth, full figure. Her skin was dazzlingly white, so delicate it resembled the finest mutton fat jade, almost as if one could squeeze water from it.

"Put your clothes on." Gu Luo leaned against the desk, saying these words of reminder, but his gaze was honestly fixed on her, unable to look away for even a moment.

Since the two got together, Xiaoman's figure has become increasingly eye-catching. Unlike Shen Qingling's slender, almost thin, cartoon-like legs, Gu Ximan's thighs have just the right amount of flesh, and her skin is firm and soft. When she walks, her legs sway gently with her steps, giving her a charming and alluring look.

This is understandable, as Gu Ximan's height is not particularly outstanding among her sisters, but she is the heaviest.

Gu Luo knew the reason perfectly well—soft, tender, and plump.

Those who know, know.

"What are you going to wear? I'm not wearing anything." Gu Ximan turned her head and glared at him, but there was a sly smile in her eyes.

She walked straight to the bed, lay down, and pressed a shallow indentation into the soft mattress.

She turned to the side, smoothed her cool tea-brown hair, rested her chin on one hand, and gently placed the other on her waist, giving Gu Luo a wink, her voice as soft as cotton candy:

"Brother, come here~~~"

This...whose cadre is this...well...it's really unbearable...

Gu Luo's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed, his body instantly aroused by the heat within him.

He strode forward, about to walk towards the bedside to do something intimate, when the bedroom door clicked open and Shen Qingling walked in.

Shen Qingling's gaze swept over Gu Ximan, who was lying on the bed completely naked and exuding a seductive charm. Her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly before she regained her composure and spoke calmly:

"How hungry are you? It's only a few minutes and you're already trying to seduce me."

"Hmph, mind your own business." Gu Ximan immediately puffed out her pink cheeks, looking like an angry little pufferfish, and said huffingly:

"If you're not hungry, don't come and cause trouble. Go back upstairs and sleep tonight!"

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Gu Luo quickly stepped in to smooth things over, reaching out to ruffle Gu Ximan's hair: "Okay, okay, stop arguing. I'm hungry, I'm hungry, alright?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Shen Qingling standing to the side, and before she could react, he reached out and picked her up around the waist.

Shen Qingling gasped softly and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, only to be gently tossed onto the bed by Gu Luo, landing right next to Gu Ximan.

Gu Luo leaned forward, placing his hands on the mattress, about to get closer to the two of them to say something, when Shen Qingling suddenly spoke again:

"Didn't you guys see Weibo? Zhao Shuo wants to have a showdown with Shu Ning."

"Zhao Shuo?" Gu Luo's movements stopped abruptly. The heat in his body felt like it had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and all his ambiguous thoughts vanished instantly.

He straightened up, picked up his phone from the bedside table, and quickly opened Weibo.

Upon entering the homepage, the eye-catching trending topic immediately comes into view—#ZhaoShuoSupportsFansDeterminedToChallengeLuoNingning#, followed by a bright red "Explosive" character, firmly occupying the top spot on the trending list.

Gu Luo frowned immediately. He tapped the screen and saw Zhao Shuo's ambiguous yet provocative Weibo post, along with comments from fans cheering wildly and clamoring to fight Luo Shuning's fans to the death.

Gu Ximan, who was on the bed, also came over. The moment she saw the trending topic, all her previous naive charm vanished, and her face darkened.

"Is Zhao Shuo out of his mind? It's one thing for his brainless fans to cause trouble, but for a celebrity like him to dare to stir up trouble?"

Shen Qingling leaned against the headboard, her fingertips lightly tapping the edge of the bed. A barely perceptible smile flashed in her eyes, but she chimed in, "They probably want to use Shu Ning's popularity to create hype. Even negative publicity is still publicity."

She knew perfectly well that she was the one who started this whole mess, and now that Zhao Shuo had taken the initiative to step forward, it was exactly what she wanted. Luo Shuning was probably going to have a headache now.
