Chapter 16
Old Master Li was very decisive. He was already dissatisfied with Gu Chen's rash participation in the program, which caused negative topics and discussions. Now he wanted Gu Chen to return to the old house to attend the dinner. He directly arranged for his subordinates to discuss the issue of leave with the program team, and then sent a car to pick Gu Chen up.
At the entrance of the villa area, at the request of Uncle Meng, the old man's right-hand man, all the cameras on the program team were turned off, and only a few low-key black luxury cars were parked there.
The guests and staff of the program group couldn't help but cast their glances secretly. They had also paid attention to the disturbance on the Internet, but now they were thinking "WTF" in their hearts. They heard that Mr. Gu had asked for leave today. So this low-key yet oppressive posture, are they here to pick up Mr. Gu?
"...Wait a minute, I'm live streaming!!!" Shen Yuan was sitting on the balcony of his room playing games. Looking at the scene downstairs, he forgot what he was going to say to his teammates.
The teammate was just joking, and when he heard Shen Yuan didn’t say anything, he pretended to be distressed: “Just tell me directly, what if this Mr. Gu is poached by a competitor?”
"Very good." Shen Yuan almost laughed out loud after hearing this, "You are awesome, go dig it up."
The teammate thought Shen Yuan was joking and continued, "Then I must find this Mr. Gu and see who he is~"
Shen Yuan saw Gu Chen walking out of the villa surrounded by several bodyguards: "..." Then he really had to think about who he was.
The e-sports community doesn’t pay attention to the entertainment industry, so they don’t know who Mr. Gu is, so they don’t have any ill will towards him. Now the audience is just curious when they hear the two professional players mention it:
[Eh? Is this Mr. Gu the liar mentioned in the trending searches? ]
[He is a big shot in the business world, can write calligraphy, compose music... and now he can play games? What kind of top-notch personality is this? ]
[Don’t mention it, yesterday’s jungler was so cool, he saved the day and turned the game around. ]
[Isn’t Xiao Yuan also participating in that program? Tell us if it’s true. 】
The teammate glanced at the comments and said, "Hey, a netizen asked you if it's true that Mr. Gu knows everything."
Although Shen Yuan doesn’t like to talk on the show, he likes to observe silently: “Yeah, really.”
[Now it’s time to test Xiao Yuan’s connections! Hurry up and pull Mr. Gu in to play a friendly match! ]
Teammate: "Good guy, it seems that our live broadcast room is still the closest to the front line of gossip. When can we invite Mr. Gu to play with the fans?"
Chen Yuan happened to see Uncle Meng, wearing gloves, opening the door of the middle car for Gu Chen, respectfully making a gesture of invitation, and then Gu Chen calmly got into the car. He said, "Don't think about it, Mr. Gu has asked for leave, don't cue."
But he thought about it, went to chat with Lu Qingyue privately and said: "Teacher Lu, can you give me Mr. Gu's WeChat business card?" Maybe Mr. Gu also plays a few games after work?
The staff members seemed to be relieved when they saw the luxury cars drive away. They said, "I didn't dare to speak just now. The sense of oppression was too strong."
"I found that Mr. Gu was still low-key in the show. When facing his subordinates, his aura was truly strong!"
"Oh my god, Mr. Gu has so many bodyguards protecting him when he travels, and there are also vehicles escorting him in front and behind. I can't imagine what Mr. Gu's identity is..."
However, they found that even though Mr. Gu had been on the show for two days, they still didn't know his name.
Uncle Meng arranged so many cars today and brought bodyguards because he was afraid that Gu Chen would not cooperate and wanted to force him back to the old house.
However, Mr. Gu's resistance was completely different from what he had imagined. This time, Mr. Gu followed their advice and got into the car directly. He didn't even have time to say a few words of advice, let alone let the bodyguards forcibly pull him away.
This was so easy...that it made him a little confused?
In the car, Gu Chen sat calmly in the back seat. Although he could see that Uncle Meng, on behalf of the old man, wanted to take him back by force, it was also risky for him to be a passerby in the program crew. For example, when he got up this morning, he would be on the hot search.
Now that the old man can force me to take a vacation, why not take it? It's like someone gave me a pillow just when I wanted to fall asleep~
…
On the show's side, Ji Zhixi was in a state of anxiety: "This morning your father brought that illegitimate child to work at the group, what are you going to do?"
Mu Yunting looked a little gloomy, and said: "I've already said that there is no need to participate in this program now."
Ji Zhixi explained: "At first I didn't know what your father was going to do by bringing that illegitimate child back, I didn't expect it to turn out like this." He thought about it and confirmed: "Since it has come to this, I'll take a leave."
So, less than half an hour after the program team issued the previous leave announcement, they issued another leave announcement for Mu Yunting and Ji Zhixi.
[? ? ? No, these two also asked for leave? ]
【How could this be? 】
[Wuwuwu, no! Then I won’t be able to watch anything today? I will lose the source of happiness…]
[Fuck! I said yesterday that according to the rule of reducing 1 second for the first time, 1 minute for the second time, the third time should reduce 1 hour. But I thought about it and felt that 57 seconds to reduce 1 hour is -59 minutes and 3 seconds, and Mr. Gu doesn't have that much time to reduce... I didn't expect that it was Brother Ting who was reduced! ]
【Hahahaha, this rule is really amazing! 】
[I checked it out, and Ting's refined cut yesterday was really 59 minutes and 3 seconds... Isn't this too amazing? ? ? ]
[Wait! I have a bold idea... Mr. Gu asked for leave today, and then Brother Ting also asked for leave. Could it be that Brother Ting took Xixi to chase Mr. Gu to ask him for tutoring? ]
[Hahaha, that actually makes some sense! This logic is awesome! Let's see what Brother Ting can come up with 23333]
Mu Yunting and Ji Zhixi took a leave of absence and immediately bought the nearest flight. They rushed to the airport, but found that they were still a few minutes late.
Mu Yunting frowned and looked at his watch, and said, "This road is really too congested."
Ji Zhixi's mood stabilized a little. He looked around and saw that some fans seemed to recognize Mu Yunting. He quickly said, "The next flight is at 3 pm. It's not good to stand here. Let's go to the lounge first. There's no rush."
The fans saw Mu Yunting's leave notice and knew that Mu Yunting's family was in City A. There was only one flight from City S to City A in the morning, and the flight number was not difficult to guess, so they went to the airport to try their luck. But they didn't expect that the plane took off and they didn't see anyone.
They were about to leave when someone suddenly said, "Hey! Look, did Brother Ting go into the VIP lounge?"
"He probably missed the morning train. He will probably take the 3pm train."
As soon as Mu Yunting and Ji Zhixi entered, they saw Gu Chen being escorted into the lounge by bodyguards. A shrewd and capable middle-aged man said beside him, "Mr. Gu, the flight to City A is expected to take 2:15, and will arrive at about 11:40. Where do you plan to have lunch? The styling team is on standby at any time in the afternoon..."
Ji Zhixi poked Mu Yunting and whispered, "Isn't there no flight this morning? How can Mr. Gu still leave now?"
Mu Yunting said decisively: "I'll go ask."
"Mr. Gu, our two groups asked for leave at the same time. I didn't expect to meet you at the airport again." Mu Yunting went up to greet him politely. "Because we have something urgent, I would like to ask, which flight did you take? Is it still possible to fly to City A now?"
Gu Chen glanced at the middle-aged man and nodded in response: "Hello." But in fact, he was not quite sure what flight this was. Since he was "asked to go back", there was no need for him to arrange such things.
The middle-aged man also understood Gu Chen's look, and walked over to Gu Chen and asked in a considerate and low voice: "Mr. Gu, are these two your friends?"
Gu Chen said, "I guess so." Seeing the anxious looks of the two children, there was no need for him to reject them in public.
"Hello, gentlemen." Then the middle-aged man stepped forward and explained, "This is a private flight that is not open to the public."
Ji Zhixi thought, why not just say it was a private plane? Mr. Gu actually traveled on a private plane! How terrifying!
The middle-aged man was very friendly: "However, since you are Mr. Gu's friends, please come with us."
Ji Zhixi's eyes lit up, and he said with surprise and gratitude: "Thank you so much!"
Mu Yunting and Ji Zhixi soon followed Gu Chen onto the private plane.
A few wealthy fans hurriedly bought first-class tickets for 3 pm and sneaked in, but they only saw the backs of Mu Yunting, Gu Chen and his group.
They were about to chase after him: "Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
But he was stopped by several flight attendants: "Sir, how can I help you?"
The sasaeng fan pointed at them and asked, "Why can they get on the plane? Isn't the flight to City A at 3pm?"
The flight attendant smiled and explained, "I'm so sorry, the gentlemen in front of us are on a private flight, which is usually not open to the public. Please be patient and wait."
Sasaeng fan: “……?!” Although Brother Ting’s family is rich, they don’t have a private jet, right?
They all talked at once: "Look, is that the guy in the middle of the bodyguard the Mr. Gu from the show?"
“It seems so…”
"That means... Brother Ting took Xixi away on Mr. Gu's private plane?"
As soon as the news came out, Mu Yunting's fans asked: [What? Brother Ting took Xixi away on Mr. Gu's private plane? ]
[Oh my god, Brother Ting is serious... He actually followed Mr. Gu to attend the cram school! I am in tears!]
[Isn’t the point that Mr. Gu also has a private jet? ]
[No kidding, actually something happened in the Mu family. I heard from a friend who works at the Mu Corporation that Brother Ting's father brought his third son into the company in a high-profile manner today, so Brother Ting rushed back with Xixi.]
[Isn't this just perfect! Staying by Mr. Gu's side, let him teach Brother Ting how to inherit the family fortune! ]
