Chapter 10 Chapter 10 The trance of a handsome man and a beautiful woman...
Wen Chu's fingertips gripping the phone tightened.
She was studying at the Film and Television Academy, and her family had sent her there with their support. The tuition was not low, and her mother was ill but had not told her about it. She had originally planned to mortgage the family house to raise money for the surgery. After Wen Chu got the contract, she quickly transferred the money home. Her parents didn't know she was a stand-in at first, and thought she had gotten a role. A few years later, when they saw that she had no works, they asked her about it. She said something nice, saying that although she was a stand-in, it was like having a stepping stone to become an actor, and the company and her superiors would arrange roles for her.
Her parents have been looking forward to it over the past few years because this has always been their daughter's wish.
Wen Chu forced a smile, not wanting her parents to worry, so she said with a smile, "We're making arrangements. It requires the right role, so it's not that easy, but they've already made arrangements."
"Really? That's great." Ye Qifang's tone became a little more cheerful. "They helped us, you should remember to thank them, okay?"
"Know."
"Your dad is about to wake up. I'll make him some breakfast. Don't get too tired."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Chu felt a little breathless because of the lie, and she looked out the window.
Gu Cheng couldn't hear the content of her mother's call, but from her tone, he knew that she always only reported good news and never bad news. He ruffled her hair, and Wen Chu turned her head to look at him, rubbing his palm.
Gu Cheng asked in a low voice: "What did you say to Auntie?"
Wen Chu shook his head: "Nothing, just some daily things."
Gu Cheng looked at the road ahead and said, "If you have anything to say, you can tell me."
"Okay." Wen Chu pressed the phone, looking at the electronic contract on the screen. This contract really weighed her down. Gu Cheng noticed that she was looking at the contract again. He paused slightly and continued driving.

After returning home and having breakfast, Wen Chu wasn't feeling sleepy anymore and started flipping through a script in the living room. Gu Cheng, who rarely went to the company, was instead handling official business at home and holding a video conference with Zhou Yang.
Auntie went out to buy groceries.
There were only the two of them at home. Wen Chu had several night shows, and she had marked each one. She sat next to Gu Cheng, occasionally nestling in his arms, and occasionally they were busy with their own things.
At this time, a hot search rushed to Weibo.
#Gold medal screenwriter Fang Yi and Mu Xuan attended the banquet, and the two were suspected of being in public#
Mu Xuan is a small-time actress who has only become somewhat famous in the past two years. This set of photos includes not only banquet photos, but also photos of entering and leaving the hotel. Fang Yi did not say anything about the rumor when this Weibo post became a hot topic, and even made an expression with a good mood.
All of a sudden, the entire entertainment industry exploded.
Not to mention the fans and passers-by on Weibo, the people who are really blown away are those in the circle.
Xi Ning sent two messages to Wen Chu.
Xi Ning: Have you seen the trending searches?
Xi Ning: According to reliable sources, Fang Yi and Qi Yuan have broken up. This time the breakup is complete. The whole circle is jumping up and down, and everyone is waiting to write an article.
Wen Chu: I just saw it.
Wen Chu: Is the information reliable?
Xi Ning: Very reliable. This set of photos was released by your company to sever the relationship between Qi Yuan and Fang Yi. Your company has now started public relations to prevent Fang Yi from retaliating.
Wen Chu was slightly stunned. This was actually released by the company.
At this time, she saw someone comment on the hot search: Fang Yi had been in a relationship with a certain actress for many years, but they eventually broke up.
Someone kept asking below who it was.
Which actress?
But no one answered.
On the other hand, Qi Yuan posted a withered rose on Weibo and in her Moments. However, the rose in the Moments photo was still shrouded in smoke. She was holding the bent rose while smoking...
This undoubtedly confirmed to everyone in the industry that she and Fang Yi had indeed broken up. The actress and the award-winning screenwriter had been arguing and breaking up for years, and their relationship had finally come to an end. It was hard to say that Qi Yuan's anxiety over the years wasn't due to Fang Yi.
Everyone was trying to comfort Qi Yuan in the circle of friends, but Qi Yuan didn't respond a single word.
Shu Mei asked everyone in the group not to talk about it to others, otherwise they would receive a warning letter from the lawyer.
Wen Chu finished reading the message, as if she were a passerby. It had nothing to do with her. She put down her phone and continued reading the script. Gu Cheng's phone also rang several times, and he picked it up to read.
I didn’t just see some news from the circle, after all, Xingyao is in the media business.
He also saw Qi Yuan's circle of friends, and he stared at this photo for a few seconds.
Wen Chu turned to look at him.
He noticed Wen Chu's gaze, and gradually put down his phone and turned off the screen. Wen Chu rested her head on her arm, and Gu Cheng raised his hand to smooth her hair: "What's wrong?"
Wen Chu whispered, "I'm sleepy."
"Then go to bed." He stood up, bent down, picked her up, and carried her into the master bedroom.
Even though he was sleepy, he couldn't fall asleep even after touching the bed. Wen Chu tossed and turned in bed for a long time before falling asleep. Gu Cheng returned to the living room and just as he sat down, he received several messages.
Cousin Gu Ci organized a party in the group, which was a party for the young people from the Gu and Qi families. The Gu and Qi families were not native to Beijing, but came to Beijing because of industrial transfer and took root in Beijing. Although the Gu family has now become one of the four major families, its relationship with the Qi family has always been very good.
Gu Ci: Let’s have a drink at Mingshanqing tonight. Come.
Gu Ci: Qi Yuan finally broke up with that guy surnamed Fang, let’s celebrate.
The other brothers and sisters in the group cheered sporadically. Gu Cheng leaned against the sofa and looked at the messages in the group, especially his cousin's tone of voice which sounded very gratifying.
Qi Yuan: You just know how to make fun of me.
Gu Ci: So should we get together or not?
Qi Yuan: Let’s get together. @Gu Cheng, you have to come.
Gu Cheng replied: I’ll check the time.
Gu Ci: OK.
They chatted, and Gu Cheng put down his phone and continued working. After lunch, he went to the company and returned around five. Auntie said Wen Chu got up around two, ate lunch, and went back to sleep. He took off his suit jacket and walked into the master bedroom. The curtains were drawn; she was sound asleep in bed.
Gu Cheng came to the bed and sat down, playing with her hair with his fingertips. Her breathing was even, and her voice was even softer than usual when she was asleep, making it reluctant to wake her up.
Gu Cheng looked for a while, and then the phone on the table vibrated. It was Wen Chu's.
The assistant of Shu Mei's agent sent a message: Tonight's night scene will not be filmed for the time being.
This meant that Wen Chu could rest and continue to sleep. Gu Cheng's mood also improved a little. He took the tablet on the sofa and edited two lines of text on it.
——My cousin became a shareholder of Mingshan Bar
——I originally wanted to wake you up and go together, but you seemed to be sleeping soundly, so I went over first. When you wake up and want to come, let Uncle Chen bring you here.
After editing, Gu Cheng put down the tablet and placed it on the table. He bent down and kissed her between the eyebrows, then stood up and left the master bedroom.
-
Wen Chu was woken by a series of vibrations. She was still half asleep, so she grabbed her phone and answered it without even glancing at it. Xi Ning's voice came over: "Which studio are you at now? What scene are you filming today?"
Wen Chu's sleepiness faded a little: "At Dongcheng Film and Television City, today... today I have to make up for last night's scenes."
"Oh, then I'll go over to visit the set now."
Wen Chu was much more awake. She opened her eyes and asked hurriedly, "I haven't been to the set yet. What time is it?"
"Nine thirty, did you oversleep?" Xi Ning reacted immediately. Wen Chu sat up quickly and put on his shoes. "Yeah, I forgot to set the alarm."
Turning around, she saw the tablet standing on the table. The screen was already dark, but Wen Chu knew that Gu Cheng would sometimes leave her messages on the tablet. This was a habit between them.
She slid open the tablet and, sure enough, saw two lines of words left on it.
Wen Chu also knew Gu Cheng's cousin, Gu Ci. He was a nice guy. One year, Gu Cheng had booked her birthday party at his cousin's bar. His cousin even helped with the decorations, bringing a cart full of flowers. Unlike his other siblings, his cousin disliked the family business and preferred a freelance career, free to pursue his own interests. He invested in whatever he liked and pursued whatever he wanted. He was a free-spirited person, unconstrained by his family's status. Wen Chu had always envied his lifestyle.
Xi Ning said: That's because he is rich, so he can live like this.
Wen Chu smiled.
That’s true.
Xi Ning got out of the elevator and said, "Then I'll pick you up and take you to the set. I'm already at the garage."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Wen Chu saw the message sent by Assistant Shu Mei. She glanced at Gu Cheng's message and saw Xi Ning was already on the way to her house.
So she called Xi Ning again and said that they didn't have to film tonight, and how about they go to Mingshan, Gu Cheng's cousin's bar.
Xi Ning also had an impression of this person and said, "Okay, you pack up, I'll be there soon."
Wen Chu had just woken up, her stomach empty, so she ate something to fill her stomach. Then she changed her clothes and half an hour later, she got in Xi Ning's car and headed to Mingshan.
The location of the bar is a bit remote, but the environment is good. There is a sign hanging on it at this time - Boss Party.
Seeing this, Xi Ning pulled Wen Chu and asked, "Is your boyfriend here tonight too?"
Wen Chu smiled slightly: "I can't hide anything from you."
Xi Ning snorted coldly.
She pushed open the door, and there was a bar opposite the door. Next to the bar, Qi Yuan was wearing a light apricot knee-length skirt, with one hand resting on the other, the other hand holding a wine glass, and was talking to someone. The person listening to her was Gu Cheng, who was wearing a white shirt and black trousers.
The dim light from overhead cast its shadow upon the two of them.
There is a vague feeling that they are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
Wen Chu was stunned for a few seconds.
Xi Ning noticed the ring that Qi Yuan had been wearing on her finger. She said, "It seems like they really broke up."
Wen Chu came back to his senses and saw a banner hanging on the singer's stage not far away: Celebrating Qi Yuan getting rid of that guy named Fang, don't go home until you are drunk tonight.
Wen Chu then realized that the reason for tonight's party was not only because Gu Ci became a shareholder of this bar, but also because of this reason.
Too.
Everyone in their group had a good relationship with Qi Yuan and was very nice to her.
"Let's go in and call your family." Xi Ning pulled Wen Chu, intending to confront Qi Yuan with a bit of provocation. But Wen Chu grabbed her hand instead.
Xi Ning was stunned.
Wen Chu shook his head at her, "Let's go to another place."
Xi Ning saw the fragility in her eyes at that moment, and suddenly reacted. She looked at the two people at the bar, and a strange thought came to her mind.
These two people, a sister and a brother...
That's impossible.
