Chu Yixin spoke in a languid tone, her eyes slightly narrowed, her red lips parted slightly.
"They're even asking about my gossip! But, well, there are one or two who do catch my eye, I'll keep an eye on them for now,"
Chu Wuyang knew that she originally intended to act, but because public figures have too much exposure, it would affect the entire family.
The venerable Mr. Chu, who had lived a low-key life, strictly ordered her to abandon her acting dreams, and now she has turned to behind-the-scenes capital.
That's fine, at least I can occasionally get a cameo role as an unknown extra and satisfy my acting itch.
So it's not hard to imagine that the one or two she mentioned must be some rising young heartthrobs!
Chu Wuyang smiled gently, "Then, Third Sister, are you planning to get married?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yixin's eyes widened suddenly, as if she had heard something disgusting. She sat up straight and quickly pulled her legs back.
He said exaggeratedly, "What?! Saying such unlucky things on such a joyous day? It's bad luck!!!"
She said disdainfully, "I don't want to become an old woman."
Then, in a disgraceful tone, she said to Chu Wuyang, "Look at you, married young, and already acting like a proper lady."
"What a waste of such a beautiful face, so young and delicate, always dressed so coldly. Any man who gets close to you will freeze to death. No wonder that scheming woman hooked up with your man..."
Chu Yixin finished speaking in one breath before realizing she had said something she shouldn't have, and instinctively covered her mouth.
She had been bribed by Zhou Chen before; after all, they were in the same circle. But considering the differences in their relationships,
She and Chu Wuyang were actually blood-related sisters, and then she couldn't help but reveal the truth.
Chu Wuyang's eyelashes trembled slightly as she listened quietly. It wasn't really a secret anymore.
"However, I don't know if Jing Min has already given up on her. As far as I know, she's basically in a semi-blacklisted state. Several high-end luxury brand endorsements have been canceled, and she'll also terminate her contracts for the shows she'll be participating in later."
She moved closer to Chu Wuyang and continued with some doubt, "But it's strange, it's normal for things to rise and fall in our industry. This kind of quiet blacklisting is a bit like a punishment, because if it were a complete blacklist, at least a wave of scandals would be exposed first to make her disappear from the public eye."
"I see Yunyang is doing fine and still accepting ads and making announcements as usual. Could it be that they had a fight?"
"Yangyang, now that you're back, you need to find a way to catch Jingmin and prevent them from getting back together."
"That white lotus flower, on the surface, looks as aloof and pure as a snow-covered holy lotus, just like you, oh, I don't mean it's an act,"
"Yeah, that's how it seems on the surface, but the difference is that she's a completely different person—passionate and fiery in private. That's called a contrast, and men love that."
Seeing that Chu Wuyang was listening but remained silent, her tone began to sound somewhat helpless and comforting.
"But don't be too angry. It's not just rich men who are like this; rich women are the same," she said patting her chest smugly.
Chu Wuyang looked at her, nodded, and said thank you for the comfort. Indeed, her happiness was unimaginable.
"You said getting married was troublesome, right?"
"Look at Second Sister's worried face. She and that Young Master Zhou have only met twice before getting engaged. What kind of feelings could they possibly have? It's just a marriage of convenience. They'll probably go their separate ways in the future."
"So you absolutely mustn't be casual and let that innocent-looking woman get away with it. Love and all that stuff are fake; just drag it out."
"Back when Jingmin was living in the Chu family and was so destitute, wasn't it you who stayed by his side through thick and thin? His success today is all thanks to you."
"Don't listen to those nonsensical arguments outside that if you don't love someone, you should just give them up, and don't act all high and mighty saying you're rich enough to just hand over the empire you've built to someone else..."
Chu Wuyang listened, realizing that Jing Min's success today was entirely due to his own efforts, and that her presence back then was merely an obstacle to him.
He could even be considered an "enemy"—he overcame countless obstacles to achieve his current success, yet he hasn't taken revenge on her, his "enemy."
But it's not entirely without retaliation; they might be slowly being boiled like a frog in lukewarm water, just like her.
Chu Yixin was still talking to herself.
"Your naive little best friend looks so happy right now, but don't you know what kind of person your older brother is?"
"Indecisive, or to put it bluntly, a 'central air conditioner' (meaning someone who is overly friendly and indecisive), all the happiness I have now is just a bubble, easily shattered, unable to withstand the slightest test."
Chu Yixin is right; she did offer some advice, but everyone has their own choices. She is a clear example of failure.
But some people still bravely plunge in with smiles on their faces. However, if they have the courage to hit a wall and then tear it down, then hitting it is no big deal.
Towards the end, Chu Yixin felt a bit thirsty, so Chu Wuyang handed her a glass of juice. The cool juice moistened her parched throat, and the sweet and sour taste soothed her taste buds.
She thought of her crush, every cell in her body cheering with joy. A slight, mischievous smile played on her lips as she spoke to Chu Wuyang.
"Yangyang, how about I introduce you to a boyfriend? Look, Jingmin dates female celebrities, so you should date a male celebrity too. Isn't that fair?"
"Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs with abs, young and energetic, and obedient..." She finished speaking and winked with captivating eyes.
Chu Wuyang was taken aback when she heard this, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Male celebrities with broad shoulders, narrow waists, long legs, and abs?"
"What male celebrity?"
As the two were talking, a sinister voice interrupted.
"How dare you eavesdrop on women's conversations? How rude!" Chu Yixin immediately stood up and said angrily.
Jing Min's expression was grim, his gaze sweeping over Chu Yixin like a sharp blade, carrying a subtle warning.
"What are you glaring at me for? Are you saying only officials are allowed to set fires, while commoners are forbidden even to light lamps?"
Chu Yixin quickly left after speaking, giving Wu Yang a look that said, "Good luck."
She's usually arrogant, but she can't fight city hall; in the business world, she has to work under President Jing to make a living.
I just encouraged someone's wife to cheat on him. I wonder if he'll hold a grudge. It's better to report him to the old man; after all, he's family, and at least the person is whole.
But if he holds a grudge and goes in personally, there's no guarantee he'll be unscathed.
I remember something from a couple of years ago. A few of her girlfriends went to a nightclub, and Chu Wuyang was there too.
Unable to find a restroom after leaving her home, she mistakenly entered a secluded alley behind it.
There was a fight going on inside, and she was so scared that her legs were trembling. She even forgot if her legs were her own, and she stood there frozen.
A group of bodyguards in suits, more than ten in total, surrounded them.
Through the gaps in the crowd, one could see a man in a black shirt relentlessly punching a pile of "flesh and blood" on the ground.
Because the body was barely recognizable, with its face a blur of blood, the man still hadn't stopped what he was doing.
Until finally, he took the bodyguard's sharp knife and slashed down without hesitation.
Both hands were neatly severed, and the "flesh paste" remained still after its initial movement.
She lowered her head; the blood on the ground flowed like a stream to her feet, instantly staining the soles of her shoes red.
She was so scared she forgot to scream; terror gripped her entire body. Her eyes widened as she met Jing Min's eyes, which were filled with a chilling, murderous intent, like those of a wild beast.
Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine; it was a nightmare. I offended Jingmin.
He really can kill...
