Chapter 73: Leave it to Manman to play with. She has to find someone to vent her anger on.
Mr. Zhong on the shore was so angry that his face turned purple and all the fat on his body was shaking.
He pointed at Gu Manman who was still holding Lin Xiao in the pool, and roared at Sister Chen beside him: "This is rebellion! This is simply outrageous! This crazy woman! Drag her up! Now! Immediately! Fire her! Get her out!"
Gu Manman felt that Lin Xiao's struggling strength had obviously weakened and he was almost losing consciousness, so she suddenly let go of his hand.
Lin Xiao emerged from the water with a "splash", and lay on the edge of the pool, coughing and vomiting violently. His face was covered with tears, snot and pool water. He looked at Gu Manman with eyes full of fear of surviving a disaster.
She really felt that at that moment, Gu Manman really wanted to drown her!
Gu Manman wiped the water droplets off her face, and the water droplets slid down her well-defined jawline.
She shook her wet hair, turned around and looked at the furious and domineering Mr. Zhong on the shore.
Mr. Zhong looked at the woman in the water. Although she was soaked, her eyes were as fierce as a wild beast, with undisguised provocation and contempt.
He had seen too many women, young and beautiful, gentle and obedient, and those who knew how to flatter him carefully.
Girls like Lin Xiao, who cry, act like a spoiled child, and play the role of innocent little white flowers in front of him, are the type he comes into contact with most often.
But the woman in front of me...
She stood in the murky water, her wet white T-shirt clinging to her body, outlining her slender yet powerful lines.
There was no fear or pleading in those eyes, only a cold, stubborn, and even slightly crazy ruthlessness.
Like a wild horse that refuses to be tamed, it is full of thorns, dangerous and charming.
Mr. Zhong has lived half his life smoothly and there is nothing he cannot get when he wants it.
The resistance and unruliness in Gu Manman instantly aroused his long-dormant desire to conquer.
In comparison, Lin Xiao, lying by the pool, crying and complaining miserably, seemed so boring and so disgusting.
He didn't even bother to look at her again.
Mr. Zhong's gaze was fixed on Gu Manman.
"Pull the man up!" he suddenly said.
The two bodyguards suddenly woke up from their dream and quickly jumped into the water. One of them pulled Lin Xiao, and the other tried to pull Gu Manman.
Gu Manman shook off the hand that was reaching out to her, stepped on the edge of the pool, and climbed ashore nimbly.
She was dripping with water, but she stood straight. Her eyes were still calm, but she looked at Mr. Zhong with a kind of scrutiny.
Mr. Zhong looked at Gu Manman deeply, then looked away.
"Sister Chen," he said to the bewildered Sister Chen, "Take him downstairs and deal with him first. Don't delay the subsequent filming."
Sister Chen nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Mr. Zhong, I will deal with it immediately."
Lin Xiao was pulled ashore and saw that President Zhong did not punish Gu Manman immediately. Instead, he acted as if to make a small matter out of a big deal. He suddenly felt wronged and unwilling and wanted to cry.
"Okay, stop crying." Mr. Zhong just glanced at her indifferently, with a hint of impatience in his tone, "Go change your clothes and prepare for the next scene."
The warmth and concern in his eyes were no longer there.
Lin Xiao was sensitive to this change and had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Zhou Mubai walked to Gu Manman and handed her a clean towel.
Gu Manman took it and wiped the water off her face.
Mr. Zhong's eyes fell on her again, with a secret and determined scrutiny.
That look made her feel sick.
The corner of Mr. Zhong's mouth curled up in an arc with an ambiguous meaning.
The farce by the pool ended in a weird way.
Lin Xiao was helped tremblingly into the nanny car by two assistants.
Mr. Zhong did not explode in anger as everyone expected.
He waved away Sister Chen and others who surrounded him, and his gaze lingered on Gu Manman for a few seconds, his eyes full of weighing and amusement.
He walked to the rest area, sat down again, and picked up the new drink handed to him by his assistant. Sister Chen hurried over and smiled carefully: "Boss Zhong, you see, this incident is caused by us not doing our job well, please don't be angry..."
Mr. Zhong waved his hand, interrupting her, but his eyes glanced in Gu Manman's direction as if unintentionally: "It's okay, young people are quick-tempered."
He took a sip of his drink and changed the subject, lowering his voice, "That screenwriter, her name is Gu Manman, right?"
Sister Chen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly responded, "Yes, her name is Gu Manman."
"Looks like someone with a lot of personality," Mr. Zhong asked casually, "Are you single?"
Sister Chen was stunned, not understanding why this big shot suddenly cared about the screenwriter's private life, but she still answered honestly: "Well... it seems that he is single."
"What does your family do? What's your background?" Mr. Zhong asked again.
Sister Chen's forehead was covered with sweat and she didn't know how to answer.
Mr. Zhong did not ask any more questions, but just looked into the distance thoughtfully.
On the other side, Su Yu hurriedly pulled Gu Manman towards the makeshift changing tent.
"Fuck, Manman, you scared me to death just now!" She lowered her voice, her tone anxious and angry, "But well done! It makes me feel better! But you have to be careful of that guy named Zhong, the way he looks at you is not right, like a wolf seeing meat, sticky and disgusting! You can tell at a glance that he is not a good person!"
Gu Manman pulled off her wet T-shirt, revealing the sports bra underneath, and water droplets slid down her tight waistline.
"I know."
When Gu Manman changed her clothes and came out, Mr. Zhong's assistant was waiting outside the tent holding a big-brand shopping bag.
"Ms. Gu," the assistant said with a professional smile, "This is a little gift from Mr. Zhong. I'm sorry you were scared just now, so this set of clothes and shoes is your compensation."
What appeared from the bag was a set of new designer casual suits of the season.
Gu Manman didn't even look at the bag and walked past it. "No need. The crew has spare costumes. Thank Mr. Zhong for me."
The assistant's smile froze for a moment, obviously not expecting to be rejected so bluntly.
Mr. Zhong, who was not far away, saw this scene. Instead of getting angry, the corners of his mouth curled up even deeper.
Interesting, really interesting.
In this day and age, is there still a woman who can’t be beaten by money and won’t give him face?
Lin Xiao changed her clothes in the nanny car, and the assistant whispered to her what happened outside.
When Lin Xiao heard that President Zhong not only did not punish Gu Manman, but also sent her a set of branded clothes, she suddenly grabbed the powder box in her hand and threw it out.
Why?! That bitch, why?!

Feng Mingzhou answered the phone.
On the screen were the on-site photos just sent by subordinates.
On the other end of the phone, there was an eye placed in the crew, and the voice was respectful: "Boss Feng, we followed your instructions and did not reveal our identities. Miss Gu did not suffer any loss."
"Yeah." Feng Mingzhou responded, with the corners of his mouth rising uncontrollably.
Little wild cat, its claws are quite sharp.
Her Manman is so lively and cute.
"What about Lin Xiao..." the subordinate asked tentatively, "She has repeatedly provoked Miss Gu. Should we deal with her?"
"No need." Feng Mingzhou leaned back in his chair, his eyes falling on Gu Manman's stubborn profile in the photo, "Keep her."
"Leave it to Manman to play with. She needs to find someone to vent her anger on."
So that you don’t have to vent your anger on me.
His voice was doting and indulgent. "You guys continue to watch her and make sure she's safe. As for the rest, just let her have fun."
