Chapter 113 Zhou Ran Attacked
Chapter 113 Zhou Ran Attacked
Feng Fang stormed onto the film set, filled with murderous intent, to confront Qiao Han.
Qiao Han and Shao Yang were on the phone.
Strip away the tenderness and sweetness of love, and it's all just a naked transaction.
Despite the news being blocked, she still heard the rumors circulating outside.
She quickly logged into her alternate account and checked all the information.
She also received a message from her agent telling her to wait, as they were having a meeting to see how to clarify the situation.
Qiao Han turned off her phone and closed her eyes.
She vaguely remembered what people said about her when she first entered the entertainment industry.
Some say she looks too young and lacks the aura of a leading lady; they suggest she'd be better suited for a maid role.
She deliberately refused to appoint anyone, choosing instead to make a scene for them.
She needs to prove that she has the ability, and that even with this face, she will still be invited to play the leading role.
She worked tirelessly to climb the ladder, honing her acting skills and risking her life to perform various stunts.
She is changing her destiny through her own efforts.
They were also blessed by fate, with the help of a good agent and the company's attention.
With her boyfriend's strong support, she quickly gained a foothold.
From supporting roles to leading roles today.
Every step she took was difficult yet arduous.
Why should a mere tabloid scandal ruin all her hard work?
She was unwilling to accept it.
Just as she was calming down, she received a call from Shaoyang.
She knew they had been having a cold war lately, and things had gotten a bit tense.
Their on-screen romance extended into real life.
The man is considerate and gentle, knows how to coax people, has a sweet tongue, and is generous.
They had a good acquaintance and a good relationship.
But things have come to this point.
What caused their cold war?
Oh, she excitedly told the man that she was pregnant.
The man said that having a child would interfere with her career.
She firmly refused when asked to abort the child.
The two argued about the child.
Finally, she slammed the door and left.
She also knew that their relationship hadn't lasted long.
Both of them were in the prime of their careers, so having a child wouldn't be a good thing for them.
But she stubbornly wanted a child.
She didn't want to take the child's life.
Was she wrong?
Her mind was in a mess.
Later, Shaoyang contacted her and talked to her.
He said his family didn't want him to marry a celebrity.
He discussed it with his mother, who made it clear that if he married a celebrity, she would kill herself in front of him.
Shao Yang looked troubled. He said he didn't want his child to be criticized after birth.
He wanted his child to be born with dignity and honor.
He said to give him some time; he needed some time.
Qiao Han could easily understand what Shao Yang was trying to say.
If she wants to keep the child, Shaoyang will not acknowledge it.
He hoped she would abort the child and they could discuss it later.
Qiao Han touched her stomach.
She didn't want to let go of the child.
It was a good thing, how did it turn out like this?
She answered the phone and listened to the other person's sweet talk.
Suppressing his anger, he asked.
"So what do you want?"
“I want to help you. You know what people are saying about you. I'll help suppress the public opinion, but…”
Qiao Han remained silent, waiting for him to continue stating his conditions.
"It's just that I can't help you as your boyfriend. If my mom finds out, she'll definitely cause trouble for you."
Qiao Han closed her eyes.
What's this move called? Is it called "revealing the true intentions behind a hidden agenda"?
How could she have been so blind to think that this man was gentle, considerate, and a rare good person?
In retrospect, it was nothing more than poison wrapped in excrement.
Shao Yang waited for Qiao Han's reply.
"good."
When Qiao Han said that word, her voice sounded even hoarse.
She was completely exhausted; she was ridiculous!
A wild goose that roamed all day long got its eyes pecked out by another goose.
"About that child, I think..."
Shao Yang was delighted with Qiao Han's compromise and wanted to press his advantage, as long as the child was aborted.
Their relationship is much simpler.
Actually, he quite liked Qiao Han, of course, Qiao Han, the obedient and compliant girlfriend.
"You have nothing to do with the child!"
Qiao Han hung up the phone decisively.
At that moment, she was telling the truth; she didn't want the child in her womb to have anything to do with Shaoyang.
It's over.
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Shaoyang quickly notified his online trolls to guide public opinion and reduce the trending topics.
They even went out of their way to find gossip about a minor celebrity to divert everyone's attention.
The online discussions were so heated that they seemed eager to deliver a verdict on Qiao Han right then and there.
Within two hours, everything was calm again, as if nothing had ever happened.
Gu Tingxiao smiled upon seeing the online comments and turned off his phone.
A lucky break.
Zhong Xiaoxue hugged Gu Tingxiao from behind.
She said coquettishly, "What are you looking at? You seem to be having so much fun?"
"Of course we'll look to the God of Wealth! Honey, we've got a huge sum of money coming in!"
Gu Tingxiao wrapped his arms around Zhong Xiaoxue's waist and kissed her cheek.
Do you like money, or do you like me?
"Of course I like money, otherwise why would I like you?"
Gu Tingxiao's smile was somewhat greasy as he uttered sweet nothings that were also somewhat greasy and embarrassing.
Zhong Xiaoxue laughed, "You're just teasing me. Didn't you promise to come with me to meet my parents when you had time? They even asked you before, 'When are you free?'"
"I'm busy these two days. Let me finish this project first. This is a gift for you. I've also prepared gifts for your parents. Please apologize to your aunt and uncle."
Gu Tingxiao said apologetically to Zhong Xiaoxue.
"Okay, I understand. You can't do that again next time."
"Yes, my darling is so considerate of me."
Gu Tingxiao smiled indulgently.
If Zhou Ran were here, she might be able to throw up.
The way this affectionate dog looks makes you want to throw up your dinner from the night before.
The two lingered for a while longer before heading to the restaurant that Gu Tingxiao had booked in advance for dinner.
After finishing dinner, Zhou Ran went for another walk.
Having learned from yesterday's experience, he went in the opposite direction this time.
After walking a few steps, we arrived at an outdoor cooling-off area in the community.
There are quite a few elderly people chatting here, making it more lively than other places.
Zhou Ran blended in with the elderly thanks to her cute appearance.
I sat quietly next to a few old men and watched them play chess.
They played chess and chatted at the same time.
"Have you heard? The residents of nine villas were stabbed."
"I heard about it. It's all thanks to having a good dog that they found someone and called the police, otherwise the person would definitely be dead."
"I heard he was covered in blood; the assailant stabbed him several times, it was almost fatal."
"The security situation is bad everywhere now. There are many violent criminals, and nowhere is safe."
"That's right."
An old man pursed his lips and retorted.
"It's not that simple. I know inside information."
"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly."
"It's Old Pang, don't keep me in suspense!"
"Yeah, explain yourself clearly."
Old Pang only spoke slowly when his old friend urged him.
"I heard that. He's not some thug, he's a murderer!"
"Holy crap! No way, our neighborhood has top-notch security, how could a murderer still be found here?"
Old Pang, his face stern, said, "Are you going to listen or not?"
"Listen, listen to me, stop causing trouble, Lao Pang, you speak."
"Yes, Lao Pang, ignore him and continue."
Old Pang then spoke.
"My cousin told me that they found a bloodstained suitcase over there. Can you guess what was in that suitcase?"
What is it?
"Could it be a person?"
Old Pang nodded approvingly.
"You guessed right, it was a person. We found a little girl inside. She died a horrific death, stabbed more than a dozen times and dismembered. This killer really isn't him!"
"Oh my, really? You're inhuman, you don't even spare young girls."
"My God, those damned thugs."
"So, it was that person who killed the little girl and then encountered the people from Villa No. 9 while dumping the body?"
Old Pang nodded. "Yes, I heard that the thug was from the villa next door, and that man was the girl's mother's boyfriend."
I usually like to drink a little alcohol, and I often hear that family beating their child.
The security guards went several times, but it was no use. They said it was a family matter and no one needed to interfere.
In just a short while, everyone gathered around to hear Lao Pang's revelation.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sigh, feeling sorry for the little girl.
"Oh dear, how pitiful. It's true what they say, if there's a stepfather, there's a stepmother. Is that mother dead? She just lets outsiders beat her own daughter."
"Poor thing, I've also met the little girl number 10. She's only 11 this year. She's a well-behaved and pretty little girl, very polite, but a bit timid."
"It's a pity. If you don't like children, why have them? These parents are irresponsible."
"Where is the child's mother? Does she know that her daughter has been harmed?"
"I don't know, I heard he went on a business trip out of town."
"This is outrageous. The people in Villa No. 9 are just unlucky to have run into someone like this."
...
Everyone was discussing it animatedly, and Zhou Ran nodded along with them, condemning the bad guys.
Recalling the size of that box, it certainly didn't seem like it could fit an adult.
I thought it was an adult divided into smaller pieces, but now it seems to be a little girl.
After discussing it for a while, things started to change again.
The conversation moved from murder cases to children and education issues.
"Sigh, I used to complain about my good-for-nothing son, but now it seems that being a bit useless is fine, as long as he's safe and sound."
"Your standards are pretty low. Aren't you worried he'll mess around?"
"No matter how outrageous things get, can it be as outrageous as the eldest son of the Xia family, who directly married a male wife..."
Zhou Ran's face darkened. How did this get involved with him? These old men are so gossipy, even more so than women.
"If this happened in our time, we would have been punished."
"That's right, times have changed. They don't care anymore. I remember I had a cousin who liked men and was even locked up in a mental hospital."
"The investigations were very strict back then; I was afraid of being mistaken for a madman."
"Now we can be aboveboard. People like us would still be called old-fashioned."
"You old fogies don't believe me. The kids can do whatever they want. How many years can you control them? After we die, they can do whatever they want, right?"
Old Pang looked indifferent; he was easygoing and believed that his children and grandchildren would have their own blessings.
"That's true. This person is impossible to manage. The eldest son of the Xia family was good in every way, but who knew that he would end up without an heir? Nobody is perfect."
Zhou Ran found it amusing; these old men were quite entertaining.
He had heard enough gossip, said goodbye to the old folks, stood up, and waved his hands as he prepared to leave.
Just as I stepped onto the path, a woman in a formal suit staggered toward me.
Zhou Ran didn't pay attention and walked to the side of the road.
The woman watched him chase after her, raising her knife high! Author's Note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
