When Gu Wei returned home, the 1983 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was playing on the TV in the living room.
Besides Gu Jianguo and his family of three, He Guangfeng, there were also four or five neighbors living nearby.
Because of the incident involving the neighbor's son, and since they weren't the only ones with televisions, everyone dispersed to watch TV at other people's houses.
But as time went by, things gradually faded away.
This recently aired martial arts drama is so captivating that it has drawn massive crowds.
So, someone who got along well with the Gu family and didn't have a TV at home came over.
Gu Wei had no objection to this.
After all, not every household could afford a television set at that time, and many people went to other people's houses to watch TV.
As long as you don't have any ulterior motives, he's even willing to offer you hot tea and melon seeds.
Gu Wei and Gu Jianguo indicated that they had already eaten, and after greeting the others, they sat down next to Gu Hongjie.
Gu Hongjie complained in a low voice, "Why did you take so long to get back! You've been acting for ages."
He kept checking the time, not only worried about why Gu Wei hadn't come back yet, but also hoping that he would come back soon so they could watch a good TV series together.
Gu Wei smiled and ruffled Gu Hongjie's hair, whispering, "He must be busy. But it's okay if you didn't see it, aren't you here to tell me the plot?"
Gu Hongjie immediately beamed and said, "That's true, I looked at it very carefully."
Li Guizhi, who was knitting, spoke up at this moment, "When it comes to being engrossed, everyone else has to come second."
Gu Jianguo, who had just sat back down on the bench, chimed in, "That's right, he's practically glued to the TV."
Gu Hongjie stuck his tongue out at his parents.
Gu Wei was amused by his mischievous yet defiant demeanor, and the others also laughed in good-nature.
However, people were quickly drawn in by the captivating plot and continued watching intently.
Gu Wei looked at the actress who brought Huang Rong to life, and felt a pang of sadness.
This classic martial arts drama, produced by Hong Kong's TVB, is adapted from Jin Yong's novel of the same name. It tells the story of Guo Jing becoming a great hero after experiencing various hardships and his love story with Huang Rong.
Directed by Wong Tin-lam and Johnnie To, with a screenplay by Cheung Wah-biu, Chan Kiu-ying, and others, and starring Felix Wong, Barbara Yung, Michael Miu, and others.
It premiered on TVB in Hong Kong in 1983 and was introduced to mainland China in March 1985.
Felix Wong, who played Guo Jing, was already a wildly popular male star, while Barbara Yung, who played Huang Rong, was considered a "dark horse" and became a new idol for countless people.
Later, Barbara Yung successfully entered the ranks of the "Top Ten Female Stars" with her role as "Huang Rong", standing shoulder to shoulder with Zhao Yazhi, Brigitte Lin and others.
Unfortunately, he ended up committing suicide.
Although the prevailing theory has been that he committed suicide due to a relationship, the forensic doctor who examined his body later revealed some unexpected details before his death.
He said that during the autopsy, they found a 3-centimeter-sized wound on Barbara Yung's forehead, which was caused by a sharp object, and a very small needle mark on her arm, which may also have been caused by someone.
There are many conflicting accounts of her cause of death, and no one can say for sure what is true or false.
Gu Wei only watched half an episode of the TV series before making an excuse that he was sleepy and got up to go back to the next room.
Gu Jianguo was worried that Gu Wei would get hungry in the middle of the night, so he brought him a plate of the chive pancakes he had made that night.
After seeing Gu Jianguo off and locking the door from the inside, Gu Wei let out a soft sigh of relief.
Looking back on today, I've accomplished quite a lot.
There were even unexpected short video incidents.
They were caught completely off guard.
There were so many people watching in the supermarket that day.
His attention was focused on Zhou Wenyi, and he didn't want her to believe Lu Xue's crazy talk and attempts to sow discord. He didn't even see that anyone had filmed this scene.
However, even if one saw it, in that situation, there probably wouldn't be enough time to do anything.
Besides, since it has already happened, there's no point in thinking about it anymore.
Although Gu Wei wanted to minimize the impact, it seemed that the only option at present was to deal with whatever came his way.
As for Lu Xue, Gu Wei believed that she must already know.
After all, there are far more people online criticizing Lu Xue than criticizing him and Zhou Wenyi...
Qingcheng.
In a rented room in an old neighborhood, Lu Xue, with disheveled hair, anxiously bit her fingernails.
The phone I tossed aside was still lit up, playing that video on a loop.
She clearly didn't want to read those disheartening comments, but she couldn't control her emotions.
In particular, the comments section not only contained those who made malicious comments about her, but also netizens who stood by her side.
Some people felt sorry for her and thought she did nothing wrong. Who says you can't get back together after a breakup?
Some people say that the ex-boyfriend is obviously a scumbag who started something and then abandoned it. He was clearly after his current girlfriend's wealth and was afraid of losing the support he would have gained from 10 years of hard work, which is why he was so aggressive.
Some even offered her advice on how to tear apart her ex-boyfriend and deal with his seemingly innocent current girlfriend.
They also wanted to interview her and get her to come out and explain the specifics.
Not to mention, some people suggested that she take advantage of this wave of traffic to create an account and become an internet celebrity.
This made Lu Xue feel less depressed and upset about being filmed, being ostracized and ridiculed by her colleagues, and being criticized and asked to resign by her boss.
Furthermore, she originally believed that she hadn't done much wrong.
She devoted the best years of her youth in college to Gu Wei.
A girl's youth lasts only a few years, how precious it is.
