"Brother Le, is this trending search true?"
Someone asked cautiously. The title of violin genius made Gu Leyu admired by many people. Of course, he would not tell these people that the so-called "genius" was actually bought with money.
Gu Leyu felt dizzy for a moment and said angrily, "Nonsense! Of course it's fake! Can't I see that someone is deliberately doing this?"
But the hot searches coincided with the police's announcement, which was a foregone conclusion and irrefutable.
The other people in the private room pursed their lips, but in the end they still didn't dare to provoke this young master.
"I'll go back first." Gu Leyu threw the phone back. The owner of the phone caught it in a panic and almost dropped the phone to the ground.
He walked out of the private room with a gloomy face and heard his cell phone ringing again.
Gu Leyu had just picked up the phone when he heard his mother, Yan Lingfang, anxiously say on the other end, "Xiaoyu, where are you? Come home quickly. Your father and I have something to discuss with you."
"I already know about the judges. I'm on my way back."
Yan Lingfang was still urging him, "Okay, okay, hurry up," when Gu Leyu impatiently hung up the phone. He opened his address book and found Gu Xian's number—the trending search was of course Gu Xian's revenge on him. He wanted to call and curse him, but he didn't know what came to his mind. In the end, he just opened the chat window and sent a message—
You wait.
The hall on the first floor of the Gu family was brightly lit. As soon as Gu Leyu entered the house, she saw Gu Rongcai with an angry face and Yan Lingfang who was fidgeting.
"Xiao Yu!" Yan Lingfang immediately stood up to greet her.
Unexpectedly, Gu Rongcai, who was drinking tea, suddenly threw the cup in his hand at Gu Leyu's feet, then stood up, pointed at Gu Leyu's nose and cursed: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that your brother is married to Xie Yunjing now, and told you to leave him alone! What happened? You bought me a hot search to publicize your brother's infidelity. Do you think our Gu family is not dying fast enough? "
Yan Lingfang immediately jumped in front of Gu Leyu and said, "Gu Rongcai! What right do you have to scold Xiaoyu? It was clearly your son Gu Xian who misbehaved on the set, and that's why he was photographed and went viral!"
Gu Leyu's face turned pale and he sneered, "What's the matter, Dad? Are you starting to dislike me now? That's right, after all, I am an illegitimate child."
Yan Lingfang suddenly let out a loud sob, wiping the corners of her tear-soaked eyes and began to cry, "Gu Rongcai! You were the one who wronged me first, and you still dare to look down on Xiaoyu? Then let's just go, mother and daughter, okay?"
Gu Rongcai, who had originally been furious, suddenly showed panic. He quickly put his arm around Yan Lingfang's shoulder and repeatedly consoled her, "Fangfang, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I dislike Xiaoyu?"
He glared at Gu Leyu: "You just talk nonsense. Look how upset your mother is!"
Gu Leyu continued to sneer, while Yan Lingfang sobbed loudly again.
"You still scolded Xiaoyu!"
"Alright, alright." Gu Rongcai patted her shoulder, his tone even a little humble, "If Gu Xian hadn't married Yun Jing before, our Gu family wouldn't know how much money we would have to pay. I'm doing this so that you and your mother can continue to live a good life."
"Stop crying, stop crying. Let's first think of a way to resolve Xiaoyu's competition, okay?"
Gu Rongcai helped Yan Lingfang sit down, and then said to Gu Leyu, who had been watching coldly, "Still standing..."
He suddenly sighed: "Forget it, forget it, Dad was just anxious just now, Dad apologizes to you, please sit down first, let's sit down and talk."
Gu Leyu didn't try to hide his bad mood from his parents. He just sat on the sofa with his legs apart and even asked Yan Lingfang to pass him the water. "I told you that Gu Xian and Xie Yunjing can't get married."
Gu Rongcai tutted his words, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? If we hadn't become relatives with the Xie family, the Gu family would have almost gone bankrupt!"
He softened his tone and began to scold: "And if you hadn't provoked him first, would this matter have been told to others now? Look at what you have done, saying that Gu Xian cheated on you? This is putting a green hat on Xie Yunjing's head. Even if your brother doesn't make a fuss about you, can Xie Yunjing accept this hat and swallow this anger?"
Yan Lingfang slammed the newly poured tea in front of him, and the tea set made a crisp sound. "Gu Rongcai! You're blaming my son again, right? What's the point of saying this now? Why don't you quickly think of a way to protect our son's reputation!"
"I'm just teaching him how to do things!" Gu Rongcai sipped his tea in frustration. "This isn't going to be easy."
Gu Leyu crossed her legs and said, "What's so difficult about it? Doesn't our family survive because Gu Xian flatters Xie Yunjing? Gu Xian isn't capable of doing such a thing, so if anything needs to be done, it's of course Xie Yunjing who does it. Xie Yunjing and Gu Xian have a good relationship, so let Gu Xian do the pillow talk."
Gu Rongcai wanted to glare at him, but under Yan Lingfang's gaze, he had to restrain himself: "The police have already issued a notice. The matter of the judges accepting bribes can no longer be suppressed..."
"Who said Xiaoyu's award was awarded by the judges in a shady way?" Yan Lingfang, who had just been crying and wailing, now had a gleam in her eyes. "Besides, we are friends with those judges. How can exchanging gifts and favors between friends be considered bribery?"
Gu Rongcai frowned: "You mean..."
Yan Lingfang patted him in disdain. "Why don't you find someone from among those silver and bronze medal winners behind Xiaoyu whose family is short of money and have him admit that he was the one who bribed the judges to get his place?"
Gu Rongcai rubbed his knees and said, "This is the only way."
He turned around and called his assistant to ask him to take care of this matter.
Yan Lingfang grabbed Gu Leyu's hand and patted it, acting like a loving mother: "Okay, you're still not happy? Your pout is so bad it looks like you could hang a bottle of oil on it!"
She scratched Gu Leyu's nose and said, "Mom and Dad will help you solve the problem, don't worry."
Gu Leyu put on a serious expression for a while before bending down and burying herself in Yan Lingfang's arms: "What about Gu Xian? He bullied me so much, are you just going to let it go like this?"
Yan Lingfang glanced at her husband who was busy on the phone as he walked to the terrace, and lovingly stroked the top of Gu Leyu's head. "Gu Xian is relying on Xie Yunjing now, and your father has to rely on him. It's all to make more money so that you can have a better life in the future. Let's be patient for now."
Gu Rongcai finished the call and came back to see the mother and son in this state.
Yan Lingfang asked, "Is it arranged?"
"Everything is arranged. I told my assistant that if they don't agree, I'll raise the price until they agree." Gu Rongcai patted Gu Leyu on the back and said, "Xiaoyu, don't worry. Dad will definitely get this done for you. And Dad said before that it wasn't because I was partial to your brother, but because I wanted to make more money so that you can live comfortably in the future. Don't be angry with Dad, okay?"
Gu Leyu buried his head and said nothing.
"Child's temper." Yan Lingfang pinched his ear in a chastising tone and said, "Alright, go to bed first. It's already late at night. It's not good for your health if you don't sleep any longer. You'll have good news tomorrow."
Gu Rongcai also agreed: "Yes, this matter will be over by tomorrow morning."
Gu Leyu was having trouble sleeping at first and wanted to just wait until Gu Rongcai found someone to take the blame for him, but when it got to four in the morning, he couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep.
"Gu Rongcai!—Didn't you say you had made arrangements?"
There was a sharp shattering sound, followed by a woman's scream. Gu Leyu frowned unhappily, and after a while he realized that the noisy noise was his parents arguing downstairs.
"That little bitch Gu Xian just wants Xiaoyu dead! I told you to get rid of him a long time ago, and it's all your fault that you let him get involved with the Xie family—"
Women's voices are sharper and naturally easier to distinguish.
Gu Leyu woke up with a start, picked up his phone and opened the trending search.
"Alright, alright, keep your voice down! Xiaoyu is still asleep. I'll think of another way. I'll think of another way!"
The man tried hard to comfort the woman, but Gu Leyu once again looked at her phone and her breathing became rapid.
#First he bribed the judges and then he bribed other contestants to take the blame#
Gu Leyu clicked on this entry with trembling fingers, and saw the popular evidence of bribery at first glance.
There is a self-narration, a recording, and a receipt for reporting to the police.
If the previous trending search about bribing judges came out, "Violin genius Gu Leyu may not live up to her reputation" could be said to be groundless, but after this trending search came out, it means that the briber confessed himself and the evidence is irrefutable.
"dad!"
Gu Leyu suddenly jumped up and ran downstairs with his cell phone in hand.
He didn't bother to pretend anymore. When he saw Gu Rongcai's figure, he jumped over the spilled porridge on the ground and said anxiously, "Dad, call Gu Xian quickly. I'm willing to apologize. As long as he is willing to ask Xie Yunjing to remove these messages immediately, I'm willing to apologize to him!"
The hot search has only been on for half an hour, and netizens have short memories. As long as the news is suppressed before it spreads widely, everything can still be saved!
Gu Rongcai hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, I'll call him right away."
Seeing Gu Leyu in such a mess that he didn't even have time to change into his pajamas, Yan Lingfang couldn't help but burst into tears: "This is too much of a bully!"
Gu Rongcai obviously had the same idea. When Gu Xian's call was answered, he didn't first say that Gu Leyu wanted to apologize. Instead, he put on his fatherly attitude and started accusing him: "Gu Xian! Aren't you going too far! You bully your brother like this? Is this how a brother should be?"
There was a chuckle on the other end of the phone: "Good morning, Uncle Gu."
Gu Rongcai was stunned. He took out his phone and looked at the name on the screen. It was indeed Gu Xian.
"Uncle Gu?"
Gu Rongcai quickly put the phone back to his ear: "Hey, Yun Jing, why is it you?"
"Gu Xian was still sleeping, so I answered the phone for him."
Gu Rongcai forced a smile: "Haha, this kid is really unreasonable. He still doesn't get up at this time."
"I think it's good."
"Uncle Gu, what can I do for you?"
"..." Yan Lingfang and Gu Leyu looked anxious, and kept using their eyes to hint at him to bring up the trending search. Gu Rongcai licked his lips and said, "That Yunjing, can you please remove that trending search on Weibo right away? Look, since you're married to Xiaoxian, Xiaoyu is also your brother. Xiaoyu is young and may have made a mistake in a moment of confusion. As an older brother, you shouldn't be too picky about it, okay?"
"What's trending?"
The Gu family could still find out who was behind the trending search. Hearing Xie Yunjing's question, which showed he wasn't going to admit it, Gu Rong froze for a moment before continuing, "Yunjing, look at this matter. If it gets out of hand, it won't be good for you. Xiaoyu has already said that he's willing to apologize to Xiaoxian. Can you just remove the trending search first?"
"Uncle Gu."
Gu Rongcai quickly responded, "Hey!"
Xie Yunjing smiled lightly on the other end of the phone: "How could I bully my brother? You mentioned Xiaoyu's mistakes as if I was deliberately taking revenge on him..."
Gu Rongcai thought he was willing to give in, and quickly agreed: "That's right, as an older brother, you should give in to your younger brother. Family members should take care of each other!"
Then Xie Yunjing's next words instantly sent him to hell again.
"Reporting illegal crimes is everyone's responsibility. I just did what I was supposed to do."
"Uncle Gu, you've disturbed Gu Xian. He needs to sleep a little longer. I'm hanging up first."
"Yun Jing, Yun Jing!? Thank you, Yun Jing!" Gu Rongcai wanted to discuss a few more words, but only heard a busy tone.
He tried to call again, but the receiver said "The user you dialed is busy", as if Xie Yunjing had blocked him.
Gu Leyu and Yan Lingfang looked at him anxiously.
"dad!"
"What's going on?"
Gu Rongcai's face turned pale: "Xie Yunjing disagrees."
A confused voice came from under the quilt: "Who is it?"
Xie Yunjing peeled out the man who had covered his head with a quilt because he was annoyed by the noise: "Your father."
“…”
Xie Yunjing pressed Gu Xian into his arms and patted his back: "Sleep a little longer. When you get up, come with me to see my mother."
"Okay."
The author has something to say: Gu Leyu & Gu Rongcai & Yan Lingfang: The matter will be over tomorrow morning!
Xiao Xie: Good morning, uncle:)
