Chapter 6

Gu Yunshuang's reputation was increasingly slandered, and he became a household name, a vase star with the most negative news but nothing to support his own works.

It is said that being black and red is also being red, and Gu Yunshuang's being black and red indeed made him a top star in the entertainment industry for a while.

If it's just too dark, then it's completely muddy.

At this time, Gu Yunshuang had become extremely dark, and was only one step away from being completely blurred.

If you don't want to be completely obscure, you should start to whitewash him.

But Sister Hua waited and waited, but the company didn't take any action.

It wasn't until some netizens dug out that Gu Yunshuang had a very unusual attitude towards Xue Tinghe, the recently popular and prestigious Taoist priest, that he was scolded and became a hot topic again.

Xinchao Entertainment quickly launched the supernatural variety show "Go on an Adventure with Childhood Sweethearts", saying that it wanted to take the opportunity to clear Gu Yunshuang's name.

Sister Hua's heart was completely chilled.

How could it be possible that the whole world knows about the whitewashing before it even begins?

It's obvious that he thinks Gu Yunshuang is not evil enough and is trying to make him hate him!

Sister Hua even suspected that Xinchao Entertainment wanted to completely squeeze out the last bit of Gu Yunshuang's surplus value to promote Xue Tinghe because Gu Yunshuang's contract was about to expire.

"Xinchao Entertainment shamelessly claimed that in order to whitewash Yun Shuang, they had already found a model who looked a bit like Xue Tinghe to play Yun Shuang's childhood sweetheart. The model's acting was so bad that I couldn't bear to watch it. They still want to whitewash Yun Shuang, but they're lucky they didn't smear Yun Shuang!"

Sister Hua became more and more angry as she spoke, slamming the coffee table loudly, and looked like she wanted to smash someone's head.

Qi Yue knew more than Sister Hua. Xinchao Entertainment did plan to do so, but the person they wanted to promote was not Xue Tinghe, but another newcomer in Xinchao Entertainment - Jiang Mingshuang.

Jiang Mingshuang's identity is not simple. He is not only Xue Tinghe's childhood sweetheart, but also the only son of Jiang Honghui, the largest shareholder of Xinchao Entertainment, and the prince of the Jiang family.

In the plot of the book he read, Jiang Mingshuang concealed his identity as the prince of the Jiang family and entered the entertainment industry. He established the image of a happy little sun who came from a poor background but was hardworking, positive, and self-disciplined. This was a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry where the images of rich second- and third-generation noblemen and young ladies were everywhere, and it was liked by many netizens. In variety shows, the cold and taciturn Gu Yunshuang was compared to a vicious villain who was willing to degenerate and relied on his financial backers.

There is also the "fake childhood sweetheart" that Xinchao Entertainment forced and bribed into the contract. He is an even more disgusting troublemaker. He stirs up trouble in the name of doing good for Gu Yunshuang and brings him countless bad reputations. The most important thing is that he is a gay who is deceiving marriage. Xinchao Entertainment is just waiting for the news to be exposed later to pin Gu Yunshuang on the position of male mistress.

But Xinchao Entertainment doesn’t know Gu Yunshuang.

Gu Yunshuang is short of money, and because of money he is even willing to sign a very harsh contract with Xinchao Entertainment, allowing Xinchao Entertainment to control him. He will not easily break up with Xinchao Entertainment, and will swallow all the grievances by himself, but his childhood sweetheart is his bottom line.

Xinchao Entertainment's actions not only discredited Gu Yunshuang, but also his childhood sweetheart. This was something he absolutely could not tolerate.

So just a few days after the variety show started recording and the fake childhood sweetheart had not yet been exposed, Gu Yunshuang had a falling out with Xinchao Entertainment, filed a contract lawsuit, and directly exposed the phone recording with Xinchao Entertainment, letting everyone know that the fake childhood sweetheart was hired by Xinchao Entertainment.

Xinchao Entertainment immediately played the victim and did not dare to let the fake childhood sweetheart be exposed. However, it turned the tables and said that Gu Yunshuang was ungrateful and had already found a new employer, and was stepping back on his old employer in order to show his loyalty to the new employer.

At this time, Jiang Mingshuang's identity as the young master of the Jiang family was exposed, and Xinchao Entertainment boasted about his character of a rich second-generation who was independent and passionate and who wanted to avoid family marriage and freely choose the person he liked, so he could only rely on his own strength to enter the entertainment industry and realize his dream of becoming a star, and who bravely resisted for love.

In variety shows, he endured all kinds of humiliation for the development of his company's artists. He was ordered around by Gu Yunshuang and suffered countless grievances without any complaints. He won the sympathy of countless netizens, and the number of his fans increased sharply. Compared with Gu Yunshuang, he was scolded even more.

The contract lawsuit with Xinchao Entertainment was also not going well. Although Gu Yunshuang and Sister Hua had collected enough evidence, the Jiang family was behind Xinchao Entertainment, so the lawsuit was unexpectedly difficult to win. The lawyer hired by Sister Hua was coerced and bribed and left with an apology.

Just when they thought they were doomed, a very reputable lawyer suddenly came to their aid, helping Gu Yunshuang not only to leave Xinchao Entertainment but also to obtain a large sum of compensation. Xinchao Entertainment also publicly apologized to Gu Yunshuang online.

Qi Yue knew that the old lawyer was an old friend of Mr. Qi, who had saved his life and had also attended Mr. Qi's funeral and met Gu Yunshuang who had always been by his side.

The old lawyer recognized Gu Yunshuang, so he offered help for the sake of Mr. Qi and Qi Yue.

Afterward, Gu Yunshuang's luck turned, and he and Sister Hua signed with a new entertainment company. The new company carefully nurtured him and cleared his name. Meanwhile, just after signing with the entertainment company, before he was forced to start a black market, a movie he had volunteered to film was finally released. It not only became a hit in China, but also won awards abroad.

Gu Yunshuang also won the Best Newcomer Award from a very prestigious foreign award.

Everyone discovered that Gu Yunshuang's acting skills were not as bad as they thought. On the contrary, they were amazing.

After that, Gu Yunshuang was finally no longer blacklisted on the Internet, and his career began to flourish.

What's more unpleasant is that I am always inexplicably involved in the troubles of Xue Tinghe and Jiang Mingshuang.

But just when everything was going in the right direction, a big hole appeared in the seal of the Ghost Gate.

Countless evil spirits have entered the human world and wreaked havoc. The existence of ghosts is no longer a secret, and many people become ghost food every day. When people's survival is not guaranteed, who would have the mood to watch the entertainment industry?

The celestial masters in the celestial master world became new rising stars, and Xue Tinghe was packaged as the brightest one among them.

By the time Xue Tinghe finally succeeded in completing the seal of the Ghost Gate after surviving a near-death experience, peace had returned to the world. By this time, the existence of the Ghost Gate seal was no longer a secret, and more and more people began to demand a reckoning.

Those who lost their families, relatives and friends in the disaster, those who lost their limbs and could only be disabled for life, and those who had nothing left and had nowhere to vent their resentment, strongly demanded that the culprit who destroyed the seal be found.

Xue Tinghe wanted to protect that person, so someone considerately pushed Gu Yunshuang, a person Xue Tinghe hated very much, to take the blame.

It was only then that everyone realized that he really had a childhood sweetheart, and this childhood sweetheart was the genius Taoist priest Qi Yue who sealed the Ghost Gate.

The seal left by Qi Yue cannot be easily broken by anyone, unless there is a traitor on the human side who knows how to break it.

Many people began to speculate and question: with such a close relationship, how could Qi Yue not tell him about the seal? How could Gu Yunshuang not want to break the seal and search for Qi Yue's soul, which might still exist, or even resurrect Qi Yue?

Therefore, only Gu Yunshuang may know how to break the seal and has the motivation to do so.

Ironically, Qi Yue's achievement of sealing the Ghost Gate became known only because Gu Yunshuang had to take the blame.

At the beginning, in order to avoid panic, it was necessary to conceal the matters of metaphysics and ghosts from the public, and Qi Yue’s achievements were naturally not announced to the public.

Later, ghosts invaded, and the public already knew about the existence of ghosts and ghost gates. Xue Tinghe became the most promising savior, and everyone had to look to him for his favor. He didn't want to hear about people and things related to the Qi family, so no one dared to mention it again. Until Gu Yunshuang had to take the blame.

So the matter about Qi Yue was allowed to be known to the public.

At the beginning, no one believed that an ordinary person like Gu Yunshuang could break the seal, but the Tianshi Association found more and more so-called evidence to accuse Gu Yunshuang, and many witnesses came forward to testify, leaving Gu Yunshuang with no room for argument.

Countless people strongly demanded that this scourge be brought to justice to comfort the countless innocent souls who died unjustly at the hands of ghosts.

In the end, Gu Yun and his wife were disgraced and they jumped off the roof of a tall building in despair, holding their childhood photo.

Qi Yue knew that the last straw that broke the camel's back for Gu Yunshuang was not the disgrace he suffered from taking the blame for someone else, but the news of his own death.

At that time, the Gu family and Sister Hua all died in the catastrophe, leaving only Gu Yunshuang.

Finding Qi Yue became his only hope to survive, but someone from the Celestial Masters Association came to tell him that his childhood sweetheart had died long ago, sacrificing herself to seal the Ghost Gate, her soul shattered and she couldn't even be reincarnated. How could he not despair?

Before Qi Yue decided to sacrifice himself to seal the Ghost Gate, he repeatedly told the president and elders of the Tianshi Association that after Grandpa Qi's sacrifice, his only remaining relatives would be Gu Yunshuang and the Gu family.

He was also a martyr after his death, and he hoped that the protection and care for the relatives of martyrs would fall on the Gu family. Especially Gu Yunshuang, who was his biggest worry. They must take good care of Gu Yunshuang for him and never let Gu Yunshuang know the truth, otherwise even if his soul flew away, he would turn into an evil ghost and come back.

When the ghosts invaded, the Gu family, as the family of the martyrs, should have been on the first list of evacuees. In order to let the Jiang family leave first, Xue Tinghe asked the people from the Tianshi Association to give the Gu family's quota to the Jiang family.

In order to please Xue Tinghe, the Tianshi Association agreed.

The Jiang family members were all spoiled and wanted to take everything with them. They dragged their feet and refused to leave. When the Tianshi Association members finally sent them away and came back to pick up the Gu family members, it was too late. An evil ghost arrived first and killed everyone in the Gu family.

That's how they help him take care of people!

In addition, the large amount of compensation stipulated in the Tianshi Association's letter of commitment will be paid to Gu Yunshuang and his father and mother in batches under reasonable pretexts after his death.

As a result, after only giving a small part at the beginning, there was no follow-up.

That amount of money was quite a lot, and they just left it on the road where Gu Yunshuang passed by for him to pick up. It was really careless.

Gu Yunshuang and his parents naturally sent the money to the police station, and now the money is still there with no one to claim it. It's very infuriating.

If the blood compensation money was successfully handed over to Gu Yunshuang and his father and mother, how could Gu Yunshuang be forced to sign such a harsh contract with Xinchao Entertainment for the sake of money and continue to be controlled by Xinchao Entertainment?

Qi Yue lowered his eyebrows, hiding the thick darkness swirling in his eyes. He tried hard to suppress the urge to rush to the Tianshi Association and start a massacre. With a calm face, he assured: "Don't worry, Sister Hua, I'm here. I won't let them have the chance to bully Shuangshuang."

Sister Hua doesn't know him very well, and to be honest, she's not very reassured. However, after all, they are her real childhood sweetheart, and her feelings for Gu Yunshuang and her kindness to Gu Yunshuang are not fake. It's much better than letting Xinchao Entertainment sneak in fakes with ulterior motives.

But Gu Yunshuang disagreed. "Brother, I know you've never liked the camera since you were a child. There's no need to bother me. I've already contacted Fatty, and he's agreed to help me and participate in the variety show with me."

The fat guy was their classmate from kindergarten to junior high school. At that time, seeing that both Gu Yunshuang and Qi Yue were good-looking, he wanted them to be his younger brothers. Then, Qi Yue taught him a lesson, and from then on, he became the number one lackey of the two.

But Qi Yue knew that someone would not let the fat man get through smoothly. In the end, Gu Yunshuang had no choice but to accept the inferior fakes arranged by Xinchao Entertainment under the coercion and inducement of them.

"What can I do with Fatty after I come back? I've made up my mind. I'm not leaving. I'm going to stay by your side and be your assistant. It's impossible for me to not be on camera. What? Do you still despise me?"

Gu Yunshuang was so happy that his eyes were curved with smile: "I don't mind. I'm glad that you don't mind me, brother."

Qi Yue smiled gently: "You are so good, I will never dislike you even if I dislike anyone else."

The two looked at each other tenderly and silently, with happy smiles on their faces.

Sister Hua felt that the air had become thicker than honey, and her stomach felt even bloated.
