Ye Chu quickly skimmed through the email, then frowned.
"Why would the school let unauthorized personnel in?" Ye Chu asked, puzzled. Chang Ji then asked, "Could they be students?"
Ye Chu shook her head: "School had already let out, and there were a bunch of kids around. How could they have such thoughts?"
“Who knows? Some kids these days are really obsessed with celebrities, and they happen to be at that rebellious age where they're prone to going to extremes.” Changji frowned at her. “No, I’ll contact Chengyuan.”
As she spoke, she took the phone back from Ye Chu and dialed Cheng Yuan's number.
The call connected quickly: "Changji? What's up?"
"Sister Cheng, there are rumors circulating on Weibo about Chu Chu and Movie Emperor Gu. I would like to ask you to help clarify this on your end."
Cheng Yuan frowned on the phone: "Gossip again?" She looked at Gu Yu, who was resting with his eyes closed on the chair next to the coffee table, with a puzzled expression: "Explain yourself clearly."
"Sis, it's hard to explain. Check your Weibo."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yuan opened Weibo with a puzzled look. Gu Yu, who was resting against the back of his chair with his eyes still closed, lazily asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Yuan replied to him as she read the report: "Congratulations on getting new gossip. It's said that Ye Chu 'confessed' to you and was rejected and even cried." Cheng Yuan looked at the report and sneered at the ignorant: "You were rejected after someone confessed to you? I think you're lucky you didn't throw yourself at them."
Cheng Yuan glanced at Gu Yu, who had already opened his eyes, with a half-smile. She saw him open his phone expressionlessly, and then his face grew darker and darker as he looked at it.
Cheng Yuan thought he would tell her to handle it directly, but to her surprise, the guy said with a dark face, "It's a photo of two people, so what's wrong with not being able to take a clear picture of me?" Obviously, Gu Yu was more concerned about not being able to appear clearly in the photo with Ye Chu.
"Cough! Cough!" Cheng Yuan coughed several times, choking on her own saliva. "Is this the important thing? How do you plan to handle this?"
Gu Yu glanced at her and gave her a dismissive smile, typical of a domineering CEO: "Just a clown, I'll handle it."
Cheng Yuan chuckled to herself. "Just a clown, and you still have to personally intervene? Love really does make people blind."
That evening, Gu Yu posted a rare Weibo update: "I had a lot of fun filming today, but the boxed lunches weren't good." [Photos]
He posted three pictures in a row: one was a group photo of the actors taken by a staff member today; another was a photo of him and Ye Chu during intermission; and the last was also a photo of him and Ye Chu, both of them holding boxed lunches.
Just as the fans were frantically commenting in the comment section, Gu Yu posted another Weibo post.
Gu Yu V: I heard I was "confessed to"? I had no idea! I'm honored to be able to work with @YeChu again. As a friend, I sincerely wish her well—a hardworking and dedicated person who deserves respect and love. Regarding those unfounded rumors, I hope all media friends can respect the facts and not fabricate stories without knowing the truth.
“When a group of people went to other people’s supertopics before, I told everyone to calm down. I was afraid it was just another unscrupulous media making things up. But no one listened to me. I’m really fed up.”
"Rational fans say they can't carry their teammates, they're being used as pawns and are just being stupid, it's exhausting. Now, let's see how you clean this up? Are you satisfied now?"
"If you do something wrong, you have to take responsibility. I'm sorry everyone! I will go and apologize to Miss Ye Chu."
"I'm sorry, brother, I'm sorry, everyone. I will go and apologize."
"I knew it. When they were running away before, I felt like the two of them had become pretty good friends. The unscrupulous media is really disgusting. Luckily, I was rational enough not to believe it. Seeing a bunch of people going to their super topic, I hope they can all apologize to them."
"Friendship is precious, and unscrupulous media are shameless. I admit my mistake and will apologize to the young lady."
Ye Chu's Chang Ji quickly received Cheng Yuan's OK message. She opened Weibo and saw: "Chu Chu, the movie star personally spoke up for you."
Ye Chu quickly opened Weibo and, sure enough, saw Gu Yu's two posts. She immediately reposted them: "Filming on set was really fun! This whole thing started because I was feeling a bit tired and went to wash my face. Gu Yu came to check on me, but I never expected it to cause such a misunderstanding. I'm so sorry! [Lying down] I promise I'll exercise more in the future and won't make this kind of mistake again. [Begging for forgiveness]"
"Haha, my darling daughter, you're so cute! You must remember to exercise in the future. Filming is important, but your health is also important. Remember to get some rest."
"Miss, we are very sorry for the trouble we have caused you today."
"Miss, I'm sorry, we were also at fault. We're really sorry."
"I'm relieved to see my daughter is alright. Everyone should be more rational in the future and not be used as pawns."
"Thank you for your forgiveness. It will never happen again. I'm so sorry!"
Immediately, fellow actors in the same production team also reposted the message in support of Ye Chu. Director Zhang Wuyong also reposted the Weibo post, saying: "My actors are all doing well; they don't need the 'big media' to care."
Screenwriter Li Kan also reposted: Let me tell you, what I, Lao Li, despise most is fabrication! My male and female leads are doing great! I'm very satisfied, and I don't need anyone else's "concern"!
"Just came from Old Zhang's place. Old Li is so impressive! Old Li is awesome!"
"Exactly, exactly! We don't need anyone's 'concern'! What's with all this nonsense reporting? It's just a picture to start with, and the whole story is made up, right?"
"Old Zhang is awesome! Old Li is so powerful! Seeing my daughter being insulted like that today made me so angry! My daughter may be a little silly, but with us here, she's not someone anyone can bully!"
"Upstairs, I don't even know if you're a fan or a hater. Does anyone talk about their own daughter like that?"
"You don't understand, this is the deep love we mom fans have for our daughter! Go, silly girl!"
"Haha, is this the legendary female lead's mom fan? I love her silly vibe, fan."
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Ye Chu's first thought was to remember to thank everyone tomorrow.
Changji was thinking the same thing: "Remember to thank everyone tomorrow."
"Yes, I will."
Changji flicked her hair: "Since everything's alright, I'll head back now. You should get some rest."
"Okay." Ye Chu smiled. She was indeed a little sleepy. If Chang Ji hadn't come, she probably would have been fast asleep by now.
After Chang Ji left, Ye Chu lay down on the bed. She struggled to keep her eyelids open and looked at Gu Yu's Weibo post one more time, murmuring, "Friendship..."
For some reason, the scene of the kissing scene from today suddenly popped into her mind. She licked her lips in a daze, feeling as if the warm, wet sensation was still there.
That night, she had a dream in which she was sometimes building a snowman with someone, sometimes playing with a wooden puppet with someone, and sometimes watching dazzling fireworks together.
