Chapter 57 Two Top Stars Play Tai Chi
Gu Yishen suppressed a laugh.
He didn't think it was a big problem at all, and he didn't mind that the company was passing the buck to him and letting him "handle it himself."
After all, he rarely participates in entertainment industry activities, and there is absolutely no such "gossip" about him. Moreover, Gu Yishen has been keeping a low profile all this time.
"Since that's the case, why not just go with the flow and acknowledge this marriage?" Gu Yishen joked.
"Then I really thank you!!" Luo Jiayin glared at him.
Gu Yishen shrugged and said helplessly, "I didn't mean to tease you. I don't quite agree with the company's decision. I just wanted to hear your thoughts before deciding what to do."
“My idea? Didn’t I just say it?” Luo Jiayin raised an eyebrow.
Gu Yishen glanced at her indifferently and said nothing more.
Yu Jiu and Feng Xu sat beside them, watching the two bicker, and couldn't help but smirk.
These two...it's quite interesting to see them together.
However, the online fans and gossip-loving netizens are still discussing how well-matched the two are, but it turns out they are just good at talking, good at putting on a good show, and good at acting. They are really not related to the word "affectionate" at all.
"Why don't you two take a look first before making a decision?"
Yu Jiu took out her phone and opened the various reports, videos, pictures, and information about the rumored affair between Gu Yishen and Luo Jiayin that she had collected online.
The level of detail was so impressive that even Feng Xu couldn't help but exclaim how professional it was.
Looking at the phone Yu Jiu handed her, Luo Jiayin couldn't help but be amazed at how reliable Yu Jiu had suddenly become!
It hasn't been long since the last sasaeng fan incident. If Luo Jiayin remembers correctly, Yu Jiu wasn't quite as adept at handling the last sasaeng fan incident.
How come it seems like I've suddenly been reborn and suddenly become enlightened?
As expected, one should look at a person with new eyes after three days of separation. Her Jiu Jiu truly lived up to her reputation as someone who had messed around with her for a semester and then managed to get into a top university after cramming for only a month and a half.
Yu Jiu noticed a strange sense of admiration rising in Luo Jiayin's eyes, but didn't explain anything.
She couldn't very well say that as a true fanatic, this kind of "collecting" work was something she could handle with ease.
She couldn't tell Luo Jiayin that what she did wasn't for work, but purely because she was also a fan of the "Sweet Jia Shen" couple, and had the advantage of being Luo Jiayin's assistant. She was definitely taking the lead for the great cause of her favorite couple.
Luo Jiayin carefully examined the materials that Yu Jiu had prepared, while Feng Xu also opened Weibo and showed Gu Yishen some important content.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the private room became unusually quiet.
...
After a while, Gu Yishen and Luo Jiayin had a general understanding of what this "scandal" was all about.
Luo Jiayin raised her head and looked at Gu Yishen.
“Teacher Gu, I think it’s necessary for us to personally clarify this matter.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yishen also raised his head and looked back at Luo Jiayin.
"Oh? Then how should we clarify this?"
"I just heard Assistant Feng say that your company must have already planned your attitude and approach to this matter," Luo Jiayin replied tactfully.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yishen knew that Luo Jiayin was testing his attitude towards the matter.
So Gu Yishen said directly, "The company only cares about its own interests, but that's not within my consideration."
"I, Gu Yishen, only care about my own good or bad."
Luo Jiayin was slightly taken aback when she heard Gu Yishen's words. She couldn't believe that Gu, the great movie star, was such a wise and insightful person.
But that makes sense. Everyone looks out for themselves, and Sega Entertainment, a company that's all about profit and only knows how to exploit its artists, is hardly a place that deserves "repayment" or "giving back."
“Here’s what I’m thinking,” Luo Jiayin said after a moment of thought. “Let’s first issue statements in our own names to clarify the situation and give a factual account of what happened. Then we can see how netizens react before deciding on our next steps.”
"Actor Gu, what do you think?"
"A verbatim account...?" Gu Yishen stroked his chin.
Luo Jiayin immediately understood and quickly explained, "Mr. Gu, don't worry. I, Luo Jiayin, have always acted with integrity and honesty. I have no intention of shifting the blame or revealing anything that helped you deceive the media."
"Of course, I don't mean to use your and Ms. Lin's scandal to divert public attention."
"..." Gu Yishen was speechless.
Look how beautifully those words were spoken! Luo Jiayin's meaning couldn't be clearer:
I've gotten myself into this mess for no reason, all because you dragged me into this mess at Xingda Shopping Mall and I suffered this undeserved disaster!
This was a brilliant move—a strategic retreat that allowed Gu Yishen to "not forget the well-digger when he drank the water."
Gu Yishen raised an eyebrow: "Teacher Luo Jia, just say what you're thinking. I'll do my best to cooperate in any way I can."
Upon hearing this, Luo Jiayin immediately grinned from ear to ear: "Hey, didn't I just say that we should both post a Weibo message in our personal names to symbolically clarify things?"
"And what about the content?"
Luo Jiayin curled her lips: "As expected of an artist from a big company, Gu Yingdi, you can't possibly need the public relations department, media department, and editorial department to come up with a copy for you just to edit something like this, can you?"
Gu Yishen pretended not to notice the sarcasm in Luo Jiayin's words and said sincerely, "Teacher Luo Jiayin misunderstood. I just wanted to confirm the content to be posted with Teacher Luo Jiayin first, so that there would be no small oversight in our Weibo posts later."
"As you know, the media these days has such a knack for distorting facts and making baseless accusations..."
Luo Jiayin was just teasing Gu Yishen; she didn't really mean to make fun of him.
"We'll just tell everyone the truth about the appointment we made in advance yesterday, where Assistant Feng would accompany you to my house for hot pot."
“We are telling the truth. As for whether they can accept it, and how much they can accept, that is beyond our control,” Luo Jiayin said seriously.
Gu Yishen was about to respond to Luo Jiayin when he heard that after Luo Jiayin finished speaking to him, her attention did not seem to be on him, but rather she was thinking about something on her own.
