Su Wan and the other two looked grim upon hearing this. Wu Yanran angrily pointed at the woman and shouted, "What nonsense are you spouting! Your mouth is foul and your eyes are blind? Be careful, or I'll tear your mouth apart and gouge out your eyes! I'll make sure you truly deserve it!"
Su Wan also went over to lecture her, "That's right! Is your IQ negative? Can't you see that that crazy woman is the Gu family's heiress? Who would be stupid enough to insult themselves in front of the media? You? It's you! That's obviously a frame-up!"
As Su Wan spoke, she swept her fierce gaze across the two people in front of her.
Gu Chu followed, her gaze coldly fixed on the unassuming female anchor in front of her: "This... blogger, we live in a society governed by law. Spreading rumors is all it takes. You've slandered us like this, and we can sue you. Once we sue you, do you think you'll still have a place on this variety show?"
The female anchor immediately cowered upon hearing this, as she had gotten into the show through special means.
The female anchor, lacking confidence, stammered, "I... I didn't name names, I just had a suspicion, is that not allowed?"
Gu Chu looked at her coldly and said indifferently, "Without evidence, suspicion should be kept in your heart rather than spoken aloud, otherwise it is slander and defamation."
The female anchor immediately backed down: "I...I won't say anything more, please let me go!"
Just then, Su Wan's phone rang.
When Su Wan saw that it was an unfamiliar number, she realized that she had already downloaded the national anti-fraud app, so it shouldn't be a harassing or scam call, right?
Thinking this, she walked to the side and answered the call with a puzzled look.
Hello, who is this?
A strange voice came through the phone: "Ms. Su, this is the assistant to the president of Gu's Group. Our president would like to meet with you. Do you have time?"
"No time! Beep beep beep..."
After Su Wan finished speaking and hung up, she turned around and found that Wu Yanran had already entered the security checkpoint.
Gu Chu walked to her side and, seeing her serious expression, couldn't help but ask, "Is something on your mind?"
Su Wan looked at Gu Chu and said, "Chu Chu, Gu Dongting's assistant called to ask me out, but I declined."
Gu Chu seemed thoughtful: "Calling at this time might mean he has ulterior motives. I think you should listen to what he's up to. Knowing your enemy is the best way to prevent his next move."
Su Wan said regretfully, "But I hung up."
Gu Chu comforted her, "Don't worry, if he really needs to talk to you, he will call you personally."
Gu Chu's words proved prophetic. As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wan's phone rang again. It was another unfamiliar number, but Gu Chu recognized the number immediately. It was Gu Dongting's private phone number.
Su Wan looked at Gu Chu.
Gu Chu said, "Answer it, put it on speakerphone."
Hearing Gu Chu's words, Su Wan did as she was told.
She answered the phone, and Gu Dongting's deep voice came through: "Su Wan, this is Gu Dongting from the Gu Group."
Su Wan asked calmly, "Mr. Gu, is there something you need?"
Gu Dongting said, "Would it be convenient for us to meet? I'll send my driver to pick you up."
Gu Chu whispered in Su Wan's ear, "Say yes to him."
Su Wan agreed: "Okay, I'll be at Xinyu Airport."
"Beep beep beep..." The call was disconnected by the other party.
Gu Chu took Su Wan's hand: "Wanwan, I'll go with you in a bit."
Su Wan nodded: "Mm."
Suddenly, Gu Chu thought of something: "Wait for me, I'm going to make a phone call."
Gu Chu called Jiang Jinyu, and the call was answered quickly.
“Chu Chu, we really are on the same wavelength. I was just thinking of you when your call came.” Jiang Jinyu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing into the distance.
"Stop talking nonsense. Gu Dongting has arranged to meet Su Wan, and I'm worried about her, so I'll go with her in a bit. If you don't receive a call from me in an hour, it means something has happened to us. Remember to call the police for us!"
"Do you want me to come along... *beep beep beep*..."
Gu Chu hung up the phone after speaking, not giving Jiang Jinyu a chance to say anything.
Su Wan asked in confusion, "Chu Chu, did you just call Jiang Jinyu?"
Gu Chu replied truthfully, "Yes, just to be safe, we don't yet know what Gu Dongting's intentions are in meeting you. Letting Jiang Jinyu know will prevent us from being left without help if we encounter danger."
Su Wan asked instinctively, "Should I call Shen Baiyan?"
Gu Chu said, "No need, he'll know."
Su Wan asked in confusion, "What?"
Gu Chu affectionately poked Su Wan's forehead with her index finger: "Wanwan, you're so silly. Why did Shen Baiyan suddenly appear at Experimental Primary School No. 1 last time?"
Su Wan suddenly realized: "It's Jiang Jinyu?"
Gu Chu smiled and said, "Thankfully, I'm not completely stupid."
Su Wan said indignantly, "It's Jiang Jinyu again. How can he be both wicked and a tattletale?"
"Bad?" Gu Chu raised an eyebrow.
Su Wan nodded: "Yes, Shen Baiyan was injured because Jiang Jinyu tricked him at the last moment when he was capturing Yamada Jiro."
Gu Chu curled the corners of her lips: "Just like in my previous life, I'm determined to fight to the death when I meet Shen Baiyan."
Jiang Group President's Office —
Achoo!
Achoo!
"Ah... Achoo!" Jiang Jinyu sneezed three times in a row.
Assistant Chen Ke said worriedly, "President Jiang, you might be allergic to pollen. You should go get it checked out!"
Jiang Jinyu refused: "No need, it'll be fine in a couple of days, you go and do your thing!"
"Yes!" Chen Ke left the office.
Jiang Jinyu thought of something and took out his phone to call Shen Baiyan.
The phone rang several times before being answered: "Speak!"
Jiang Jinyu teased, "You really are a man of few words, Shen Baiyan. You actually messed with me about the Yufeng project? Well, I'll only say half of what I meant. Su Wan is going to see..."
