Gu Shaojin looked up at Bai Li and asked, "Why do you want me to say it?"
"Because she might not believe what I'm saying..." Bai Li said, looking down, sounding somewhat unsure of himself.
No matter how bad his relationship with Bai Shihang was, wasn't he still his father?
How could Ming Jiayi possibly believe that he would help outsiders to harm his father?
"Chi Yun, go and investigate why the Ming family sent money to the Bai family," Gu Shaojin said to Chi Yun.
Chi Yun understood and walked out.
Afterwards, only Gu Shaojin and Bai Li remained in the large office.
"Gu Shaojin, I hope you won't gossip about my family matters with Jiayi," Bai Li instructed.
"No interest," Gu Shaojin replied coldly. "But you asked me to give her the information, aren't you afraid I'll steal your credit?"
"Go ahead and steal it. I did it, and she'll find out sooner or later. I just don't want her to find out so soon right now."
Bai Li was now somewhat self-righteous.
"And so what if you stole the credit? She'll still like me, she won't fall in love with you just because you helped her."
Gu Shaojin smiled mockingly.
"Do you think she'll fall for you? Even if she does, do you think Uncle Ming would agree to it?"
Bai Li was stunned.
The feud between the Ming and Bai families has been going on for a long time. Although he doesn't know the details perfectly, he does have some understanding of it.
Moreover, given his father's appearance, even he himself couldn't stand him, so how could anyone else possibly like him?
"I still wouldn't be interested in you," Bai Li retorted.
...
With about thirty minutes left in the party, most people went out on their own, and Lin Yan invited Ming Jiayi to go to karaoke with her.
"Mr. Lin, I'm not going to karaoke. You guys have fun. I've overexerted myself today. If I don't go back to sleep soon, I don't think I'll be able to record the show tomorrow."
"Okay, then you should get some rest. Don't forget my new drama, you'd better really consider it."
"No problem, I will definitely consider it carefully before giving you an answer, don't worry, Mr. Lin."
"Okay, okay, it's decided then!" Lin Yan said with a big smile.
Ming Jiayi yawned leisurely. This social party was too tiring. It was more tiring than standing for several hours during surgery.
She took out her phone, intending to call a driver to take her back to the hospital, when she saw two missed calls on her phone.
Gu Shaojin did all of these.
"Mr. Gu, I didn't hear my phone ring just now. Is there something you need?" Ming Jiayi asked as she dialed back.
"Bai Li brought the things to me."
"So soon? Didn't he say tomorrow?" Ming Jiayi asked in surprise.
That's fast!
"We also found out something," Gu Shaojin said in a cold tone.
"What is it?" Ming Jiayi unconsciously rubbed her fingers on her phone case.
Gu Shaojin pondered for a few seconds, then said sharply,
"Ming's senior management has been colluding with Bai Shihang for a long time. They previously bought a piece of abandoned land from the Bai family under the pretext of a mistaken investment, and started construction on that land without going through the proper procedures."
Later, the Bai family turned the tables on them, with Bai Shihang demanding huge sums of compensation. The Ming family couldn't afford that much money immediately and could only pay in installments. Your brother probably also lacked evidence, so he could only let Bai Shihang and that high-ranking official continue their evil deeds.
Ming Jiayi nodded; so that's why there was that remittance...
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Gu. I'll find time to pick it up from you after I finish recording the show in a few days."
"Is the program you're recording with Bai Li?" Gu Shaojin raised an eyebrow and asked warily.
Just before Bai Li left his office, he specifically reminded him of something.
Original quote: "President Gu, you'd better not try to take credit. I'm going to be on set with Jiayi for the next three days."
"I think so," Ming Jiayi replied uncertainly.
Bai Li told her that they were going to record the same program, but she didn't know that.
"Then I'll just deliver it to you," Gu Shaojin said simply, and then hung up the phone abruptly.
Ming Jiayi listened to the beeping sound and looked completely bewildered.
never mind.
Go back quickly and check if there is any evidence.
...
The next afternoon
On the set of the program recording
Ming Jiayi sat quietly on the stage, watching the staff walk back and forth.
They were adjusting the cameras to try and get the actors, directors, and producers on camera at the best angles.
Bai Li sat next to Ming Jiayi, with a meter between them.
This is an actor talent show.
Ming Jiayi and Bai Li, as veteran actors, came to the scene to support the new generation of actors and to score the final moments.
Three veteran actors were also present with them, and the five of them sat together.
The order is Bai Li, Ming Jiayi, Song Ye, Meng Ziyu, and Wo Jiamu.
All the participating new generation actors were divided into five teams. The so-called "assistance" meant that each of the five veteran actors had to help one team complete their video recording.
In addition to veteran actors, each team will have a veteran screenwriter to write a moving script for them, and a veteran director to guide and film them.
The video needed to be filmed within a day and a half, and then edited by an editor in half a day.
The five videos were then uploaded online for netizens to vote in real time for five hours.
