Su Man knew that Ye Hongzhi was interested in her.
She smiled gently, "Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? This matter is still within my ability to handle, so I won't bother Mr. Ye with any help."
Facing Su Man's refusal, Ye Hongzhi picked up the wine glass on the table, and the ice cubes made a crisp sound.
"Miss Tang is 25 years old this year. In this most beautiful time of your life, you cannot enjoy life to the fullest. By the time you get these things, you are already old, just like a rag doll you wanted when you were ten, but when you turned 20, you no longer wanted to play with it.
Moreover, the entertainment industry is full of crises and newcomers are constantly emerging. Popularity or not is a matter of a moment, and there is no certainty. Why would you reject a visible future because of an uncertain thing?
Su Man smiled, "Have you ever played games?"
Without waiting for Ye Hongzhi to answer, Su Man continued, "The game will only be fun if you complete it level by level."
Ye Hongzhi leaned forward slightly. "It's just that games involve winning and losing, and we have to worry about gains and losses from time to time. Why don't we bypass the process and start enjoying the results directly?"
He said in a bewitching tone, "After all, not everyone has a single chance to complete their life."
“.......”
It has to be said that Ye Hongzhi's words will move a large number of people.
Su Man narrowed her eyes.
She remembered that someone had told her the same thing when she was in her original world.
At that time, she was just an unknown little actress, living in the cracks and being looked down upon.
The man was an investor in the production crew and had become interested in her for some reason. He said that as long as she stayed with him, she would be the leading actress in every future production.
It's not that I wasn't moved, but she still refused. She said...
"Thank you for your kindness, but I think I still prefer to be self-reliant."
Su Man's expression at this moment is the same as hers back then, except that she is a little more calm than she was then.
The smile on Ye Hongzhi's lips faded a little, "I thought Miss Tang was a smart person."
Su Man stood up and said, "I only live once, and I don't want my perspective on the world to be someone else's."
-
late at night
Su Man stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel and looked at the dim lights and the hustle and bustle of traffic below.
After she rejected the investor, she encountered countless setbacks and had a dark thought that if she had agreed, she wouldn't have to endure all that hardship.
But later, when she stood on the stage and won the Best Actress trophy, she was extremely grateful to her young and stubborn self for allowing her to enjoy the flowers and applause at that moment.
She refused the opportunity to achieve success overnight, not for any other reason, but because she believed in herself.
The next day, Starlight Entertainment and Su Man’s statements were both released online.
Su Man said that she and Gu Bei had a past, but they are both doing well now, and she hopes everyone can focus more on her work.
However, not long after the statement was issued, rumors spread online.
[You just came back from a breakup, right? ]
I think...
Although Gu Bei was wrong in what he did, Tang Man is not a good person either.
I just read some gossip that said Tang Man cheated on Gu Bei with a celebrity with a third name while they were dating.
[Three-character artist? Who is it?]
Erhu
[Ah! No way?]
[Why can't I? You don't know what Tang Man was like before.]
[Is there a green grassland above Gu Bei's head?]
...
Just then, Gu Bei spoke.
[Gu Bei: We were in love, not slandering each other, please treat it rationally.]
Compared with Su Man's somewhat official response, Gu Bei's response was more down-to-earth, and the public opinion online also changed.
[Gu Bei is a bit manly in this matter]
【My brother is so kind! 】
[Now that I think about it, my brother was frightened when he was in there with Tang Man. I don’t know what she did.]
[Could it be that he's afraid of being criticized by Gu Bei because he has a new love, so he's taking the initiative? ]
[woc Tang Man scheming bitch]
[What sin did my brother commit to meet her? ]
...
Seeing the change in the wind direction, Gu Bei whistled in a good mood. He had guessed that Su Man would make such a statement and specially hired a water army marketing account to lead the rhythm.
Once the water in this pond is completely muddied, no one will remember what happened before.
Su Man was recording "Brother Come On Debut" that day, and it was already afternoon when she had time to look at her phone.
When Yu Lin handed her the phone, fearing she might worry, he said soothingly, "Brother Huang just called and told you to ignore it for now. He'll discuss it with the company's public relations department before deciding on the next steps."
"Um."
Su Man was drinking water while browsing Weibo.
As she was brushing her teeth, she noticed Yu Lin looking at her with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Anything else?"
"Um, Gu Bei just called as well."
“…”
She was not surprised at all that Gu Bei would look for her.
However, Suman ignored him and continued recording the show. After the recording was finished, she flew back to the city.
Su Man was calm, but Gu Bei couldn't hold back.
He thought Su Man would either come after him or ask him to clarify. No matter which one it was, he shouldn't be as calm as he was now.
Gu Bei, who didn't understand what was going on, became more and more suspicious, fearing that Su Man had some plan. He asked many people before he got Su Man's address.
...
On a late autumn night, the chilly wind gave people goose bumps.
Gu Bei didn't dare to go to bright places for fear of being seen, so he could only squat in the bushes in the green belt and rub his arms to keep warm.
