Chapter 307: Keeping You on Whetstone
"I remember you. You said you were a novelist." Gu Ning said. When the woman heard this, her eyes widened in surprise. She didn't expect that Gu Ning heard her words and remembered that it was her. She suddenly felt flattered.
But thinking of what just happened, the woman's face suddenly revealed shame and anger. She pointed at the man who had just pressed her on the sofa and said angrily, "This man, Chen Hua, is a TV director. He said he liked my novel and wanted to make it into a TV series, so he asked me to meet here. However, he actually wanted to use his unspoken rule on me, saying that if I agreed to him, he would buy my novel. If I didn't agree, he would force me."
Hearing this, everyone's expression darkened. Although they knew that unspoken rules were common in the entertainment industry, it would be fine if they were willing, but they were forced, and it was on the Xu family's territory. It was impossible for them to just stand by and watch.
While feeling angry at this moment, Gu Ning's spiritual light also moved.
Isn't she going to enter the entertainment industry? Since this woman's novel has been favored by other directors, it should be good and have a market. If it is really possible, why doesn't she take it for herself? "Don't worry, I will take you out safely." Gu Ning said.
The woman was immediately delighted when she heard this: "Thank you, thank you."
"Call the police!" said Xu Jingchen.
When Chen Hua and the others heard this, they were all horrified, especially Chen Hua, who was the perpetrator. He immediately begged for mercy, "Sir, I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time!"
Xu Jingchen and his companions ignored Chen Hua's pleas for mercy, and directly called the club manager to handle the matter, and then they left.
When she came out, the woman saw Qiu Yuxin and immediately recognized her, her eyes lighting up.
Qiu Yuxin is a well-known young model in China. She has only been in the industry for two years, so she is not very well-known yet.
Receiving the woman's fiery gaze, Qiu Yuxin responded to her with a friendly smile. The woman was very excited, but did not dare to talk to her.
"Where do you live? Let us take you there!" After leaving the club, Gu Ning asked the woman. It was so late, and he was worried about letting her go home alone.
The woman's face suddenly showed embarrassment: "I live far away from here, I can just take a taxi back by myself."
"Are you sure it's safe for you to go back alone at this late hour?" Gu Ning asked.
“This…” After what happened just now, the woman was really scared. After hesitating for a while, she finally said, “I’m at XX Hotel in XX District.”
Living in a hotel, it was obvious that she was not from Beijing.
Moreover, this place is a bit remote and unsafe.
"It's not safe there. Let me take you to Jinling Hotel!" Gu Ning said. The room she had booked there had not been refunded yet, so the woman could stay there first.
"Ah! No, I..." Jinling Hotel is a five-star hotel, she can't afford it! Otherwise, she wouldn't stay in a small hotel in such a remote place.
"It's okay. I have booked a room there, but I won't live there. It's empty anyway." Gu Ning explained.
"This..." The woman felt very embarrassed.
She was not worried at all that Gu Ning and the others would do something bad to her, otherwise they would not have saved her. They saved her, so even if they did do something bad, she would accept it.
Without giving the man a chance to object, Gu Ning said goodbye to Xu Jingchen and the others and pulled the woman into the car.
Because everyone was drunk, they couldn't drive, so the driver from the Dynasty Entertainment Club drove everyone.
After they separated, Siming immediately sent a text message to the other members of Wolf Gate, which read: Breaking news, our boss is in love.
Then, I won’t say much more.
After seeing this message, the other team members were all shocked. Then, Siming's phone rang, and the first call was to the fifth member, Xing Bei.
"Seventh Brother, what's going on? The eldest brother is in love, is this true? What does the other person look like? What does she do?" As soon as the call was connected, Xing Bei asked questions like a bombardment, looking so excited, as if his son had finally found a wife.
"If you want to know, go ask the boss." Siming was unwilling to say more. Siming admitted that he was just whetting his appetite and making his curiosity unable to sleep.
"You..." Xing Bei was so angry that before he could say anything, Siming hung up the phone.
Then, Siming received calls from several teammates. Some of them said arrogantly that they would not tell him, while others said that if he wanted to know, he could ask the boss. Everyone was so angry that they were furious.
Asking the boss, isn't that just looking for trouble? They don't dare to do that!
Siming was not with them. If he was, he would have been besieged. He didn't want to say anything, right? Then they would beat him until he said something.
Chen Meng and Siming took a car back to Siming's apartment. Seeing that Siming had told others about Leng Shaoting's love affair, Chen Meng gloated and teased, "Seventh Brother, aren't you afraid that the boss will find out and take revenge on you?"
"What are you afraid of? Since the boss has brought it to us, it's public." Siming said indifferently. Otherwise, how could he dare to tell anyone! * Jinling Hotel is not far from the Dynasty Entertainment Club, and it only takes a few minutes to get there.
On the way, Gu Ning learned that the woman's name was Duan Lixin, she was from a fourth-tier city, she was a writer, and she had published several novels. This time, a palace fighting novel that had just been serialized was favored by Chen Hua, so he asked her to come over to discuss the film and television adaptation. She came, but who knew that this would happen.
When they arrived at the hotel, Gu Ning asked Leng Shaoting to wait for her in the parking lot, and she took Duan Lixin to the private room.
When Duan Lixin followed Gu Ning to the presidential suite, he was dumbfounded: "Ms. Gu, this..."
Gu Ning ignored her shock and went straight to the point and said to Duan Lixin: "Miss Duan, I have no other purpose in saving you, but after learning about your situation, I have an idea. I plan to enter the entertainment industry. Since your novel has been favored by the director, I think it should be good. If you are willing, we can cooperate, or you can directly come to my company to be a screenwriter. In terms of salary, I will definitely not treat you unfairly. Of course, the result depends on your ability."
"What?" Duan Lixin was stunned when he heard that. It's not that he doubted the truthfulness of Gu Ning's words, but he felt like he was hit by a pie in the face, which was a little unreal.
"You heard me right. I'll give you one night to think about it. Let's save each other's phone numbers. If you agree, we can talk tomorrow. If you don't want to, I won't force you." Gu Ning said.
If it was true, how could Duan Lixin not agree? But she still felt that it was a little unreal, so she didn't agree immediately.
After dazedly writing down each other's phone numbers with Gu Ning, Gu Ning left.
