"Is it all arranged?" Wen Yi's eyes dimmed.
Suddenly, I felt a heavy weight pressing on my chest.
Gu Huaixu propped himself up and pulled Wen Yi into his arms. "Are you sad?"
Wen Yi did not answer, but instead looked at the trending news videos on her phone.
The video shows Wen Yi pulling Wen Ge in the corridor and making Wen Ge apologize to Lin Manqing.
Wen Ge, with tears streaming down her face, bent down to apologize to Lin Manqing. Lin Manqing's arrogance and queen-like demeanor were captured on camera, making Wen Ge appear like a weak and innocent girl in comparison.
Judging from the video alone, it looks like Lin Manqing is bullying a weak newcomer.
Within minutes of the video being posted, it had already garnered over a thousand comments, most of which condemned Lin Manqing for bullying the newcomer and expressed sympathy for Wen Ge, the innocent and naive girl.
Anyone in this industry can see at a glance that this is a case of online trolls controlling public opinion.
"I reminded her before the press conference not to try to steal the spotlight, and I also told her to go and greet Lin Manqing afterwards to avoid offending her."
"Mm," Gu Huaixu replied, helping Wen Yi fix her hair.
Wen Yi said, "You say it was my arrangement, and yes and no. I did remind her of what I should have reminded her, but she wouldn't listen. She thinks it's only natural for her to be the female lead and stand in the center position."
"She apologized to Lin Manqing but then used Lin Manqing as a publicity stunt, thinking that she could use Lin Manqing's arrogance to highlight her vulnerability and help her gain a new wave of goodwill from netizens."
“But Wen Ge isn’t very bright; she didn’t investigate who Lin Manqing was before she did anything,” Gu Huaixu said.
Wen turned her head to look at him. She was wearing black-rimmed glasses, but her eyes, hidden behind the lenses, were very determined.
Wen Yi said, "I could have stopped everything from happening, but this time I chose to watch it happen."
Gu Huaixu was still fiddling with Wen Yi's hair, tying it up and letting it down, and finally found that tying it up looked better.
Wen Yi's ears are very cute.
Gu Huaixu leaned down and kissed Wen Yi's cute little ear.
“Once everything happens, the Wen family will understand Wen Ge’s uselessness,” Gu Huaixu said.
Wen turned her head and quietly looked at Gu Huaixu.
It seems that her younger brother knows everything she does.
"Hmm?" The man raised an eyebrow.
Wen smiled and shook her head, looking away. "I'm going to make a phone call."
She took out her phone and dialed Wen Ge's number.
Press the hands-free button.
"Sister?" Wen Ge answered immediately, her voice sweet.
"Did you upload the video online?" Wen Yi asked directly.
Gu Huaixu pulled Wen Yi forward and sat down, letting her lean against him for more comfort.
"Online? What video online?" Wen Ge pretended to be clueless.
"Did you or your manager release the video online that says Lin Manqing is acting like a diva and bullying newcomers?"
"That might be the agent... I'm resting, I don't know what happened."
"So, are you going to release a video to clarify this matter?" Wen asked.
"Sister, why do you need to clarify?" Wen Ge asked, confused. "Did I steal Sister Manqing's spot as the female lead? This explanation will only make things worse. And sister, did you see that? My name is on the top trending list for that video. Now many people know that I am the female lead of 'Sword and Qin,' which is a kind of indirect publicity."
"You mean, this is a good thing?"
"Sister, Mom made you my assistant because she was worried that no one would take good care of me if I entered the industry," Wen Yi replied, seemingly changing the subject. "Now my agent will take care of everything. Besides, you've worked so hard for this press conference. Why don't you go out and rest for a couple of days?"
Wen Yi listened quietly to Wen Ge's words, her face expressionless. "You're right. I've been very tired these past few days handing over work with my manager."
"You are my sister, I love you very much, I have always been grateful to you for being my assistant, sister, I really thank you for taking good care of me." Wen Ge said emotionally, her voice even more choked up.
"It's my duty to take care of my younger sister."
"Sister, you should rest well these few days. I'll come back when I join the crew."
"But what about Mom..."
"I'll talk to Mom right now. Just have fun, sister."
"OK."
Wen Yi hung up on Wen Ge after responding.
When she turned her head to look at Gu Huaixu, he was leaning lazily against the headboard, his right hand stroking Wen Yi's back, with a somewhat content expression.
Wen Yiren collapsed onto Gu Huaixu, burying her face in his neck and taking a deep breath.
"What are you doing, sister?" Gu Huaixu asked, amused.
"I need to charge it for a bit," Wen Yi said sullenly.
Just as Gu Huaixu was about to speak, Wen Yi raised her hand and placed it on Gu Huaixu's lips, preventing him from speaking.
Gu Huaixu chuckled, pulled Wen Yi's hand down and kissed it, then hugged Wen Yi even tighter.
Wen Yi lay in Gu Huaixu's arms for about seven minutes before getting up.
She took out her phone and made a call to Wen's mother.
"Wen Yi," Wen's mother said, "Wen Ge has already explained things to me. If you want to go out and play, then go ahead."
"Mom, there's not much signal where I'm going, so you might not be able to contact me, but I'll let you know I'm safe."
"Is there anything else?"
"there is none left."
"Then I'll hang up."
"good."
Before Wen could finish speaking, his mother had already hung up the phone.
Wen Yi gripped her phone, her eyes dimming. "The reason Wen Ge made me leave in a hurry was because she didn't want me to get involved in this matter."
"She felt she could handle it well and use the video to gain traffic."
"This video will forever be a stain on her reputation in the industry," Gu Huaixu said casually.
Wen looked up, her eyes fixed firmly on Gu Huaixu, "And my parents will also truly see that Wen Ge's abilities are only this much."
"Are you so sure, sister?"
Wen nodded, got up from Gu Huaixu, and spun around in front of him.
Her dress today was a gift from her mother yesterday. It had delicate seashells on the hem, which reflected the light of the dress as she twirled, making it particularly beautiful and captivating Gu Huaixu, whose eyes deepened in admiration.
Wen Yi said, “My mother chose this for me, and when the unpleasant thing happened yesterday, my mother stood by my side.”
Even though it happened yesterday, Wen Yi is still very excited and happy when she thinks about it now.
Gu Huaixu stood up and pulled Wen Yi into his arms.
Wen's eyes were red at the corners. "I've been waiting for a long time."
Gu Huaixu stared at Wen Yi, his eyes deep, "Sister, sometimes things are just illusions, don't take them seriously."
Wen Yi was immersed in the joy of her mother's love and did not take Gu Huaixu's words to heart.
She cupped Gu Huaixu's face in her hands, "Little brother, would you like to come on a two-day trip with me?"
"Can I join you on this trip, sister?" Gu Huaixu asked rhetorically.
A look of surprise shone in her deep, peach-blossom eyes.
“Let’s go together,” Wen Yi said confidently. “For the next two days, let’s abandon our identities and everything else, and just have fun.”
"Listen to your sister." Gu Huaixu leaned down and kissed Wen Yi.
Wen Yi took the initiative to hook her arms around Gu Huaixu's neck and deepen the kiss.
This two-day trip was a final farewell.
