The internet is filled with all sorts of trending news and strange stories every day.
Netizens' memories of it only last a few days.
Since Gu Wei and his group were all ordinary people, and with proper handling, the short video was quickly overshadowed by other events.
However, Gu Wei and Zhou Wenyi may not have been greatly affected, and their work and life are normal.
Lu Xue lost her job and suffered a lot of cyberbullying. She became erratic and her condition fluctuated.
Her parents finally arrived from their hometown.
Tears streaming down her face, Lu's mother angrily pounded on her disheveled and haggard daughter. "What were you thinking? Since you were the one who initiated the breakup, you should have parted amicably! Why did you have to drag this out? Now look what's happened, we can't even hold our heads up in front of our relatives, friends, and colleagues. Your father and I worked so hard to earn money to send you to university, and this is how you repay us?"
Mr. Lu frowned, puffing on his cigarette one cigarette after another, clearly feeling particularly depressed and distressed about the matter.
The couple only had one child, Lu Xue. Although she was a daughter, she was raised in a wealthy and privileged manner, and they tried their best to give her everything that others had.
To my utter surprise, I lost face so badly because of relationship issues.
Even though he hated the couple who hurt his daughter, the facts and evidence were there, and his own child had indeed made mistakes, leaving him with a bitter pill to swallow.
Lu Xue's back ached from the beating, but seeing her mother sobbing uncontrollably and her father silently smoking, she couldn't help but burst into tears as well. "I didn't want to! Who knew someone would film it and upload it online! It's all Gu Wei's fault for being so heartless. I gave him the best years of my youth and everything, and now that he's successful, he treats me like trash, speaking coldly to me. How can I accept this? Especially, even if he produces evidence, I don't believe he didn't know that bitch surnamed Zhou before!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Lu's father threw down his cigarette butt, pointed at Lu Xue, and shouted, "Even at a time like this, you still haven't realized your mistakes and are still blaming others! No matter what happened between Gu Wei and that woman, you shouldn't have given those irresponsible responses on WeChat Moments and Weibo, giving them leverage to sue you!"
Lu Xue looked away as she was being scolded, and muttered, "I was also bewitched at the time, and there were also enthusiastic netizens who gave me advice, saying that as long as I wrote a long post, there would be some groups that would stand on my side and support me to tear Gu Wei and the others apart, making them like rats in the street!"
"The other two are fine now, but you're getting scolded to death! Where's the person who gave you the advice?" Mr. Lu looked at his daughter, who had become much thinner and whose eyes looked even bigger. He was both heartbroken and furious. If his daughter weren't older, he would have loved to slap her.
Lu Xue, her face contorted with grief, choked out, "They've all disappeared."
Lu's mother patted her husband, who was panting heavily, and wiped her wet eyes. "Daughter, have you wasted all those years of schooling? Can't you use your brain? You've been tricked!"
Lu Xue's face contorted with rage, her gaze dark as she said, "Mom, are you saying that Gu Wei and his group found this person behind the scenes? That they deliberately framed me?"
Lu's mother and father exchanged a glance.
"That's not necessarily true!"
"Logically speaking, after something like this happened, they shouldn't want it to escalate further."
Mr. Lu sighed, "Daughter, since it has already happened, don't think about it anymore. We can't stay here any longer, so come back to our hometown with us!"
"Yes, let's go home. Although some relatives and friends have a bad tongue, they'll be fine after a while, okay!"
"I'm not going back!" Lu Xue shook her head vigorously. "I absolutely refuse to go back! I want to stay here. I want to see that scumbag and bitch break up with my own eyes. Yes, they definitely won't last! Yes, they won't last..."
Seeing Lu Xue's eyes glaze over as she became absorbed in her own monologue, as if she were a completely different person, Lu's parents' expressions changed drastically, realizing the seriousness of the situation...
The next day was Sunday, and Gu Hongjie had the day off.
When Gu Wei planned to go to the city, he insisted on going with him.
Gu Wei thought about it and couldn't bear to refuse.
However, with this little tag attached, some plans and schedules will definitely have to be changed.
The two went to inspect the store first and collected the money.
Afterwards, we went for a stroll at the department store.
When they came across the motorcycle section, Gu Hongjie's eyes lit up as he circled around a blue motorcycle.
Gu Wei had no choice but to stop.
The cheapest motorcycles nowadays cost several thousand yuan, while others cost over ten thousand yuan or even more.
Based on the price standard of a monthly salary of tens of yuan, it would undoubtedly take the whole family a long time to save up without eating or drinking to afford it.
Of course, at that time, those who could afford motorcycles were mostly not wage earners, but self-employed individuals.
Gu Wei is not short of money; he can easily come up with more than a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars.
However, from his perspective decades later, the design of motorcycles at that time was rather outdated, not as attractive or cool as he had imagined.
Furthermore, winters in the forest area are very long, lasting four or five months. The weather is cold and the roads are slippery, making it even more dangerous to ride a motorcycle, which is why I haven't bought one yet.
However, seeing how much Gu Hongjie liked it...
I can't buy a used car anytime soon.
Gu Wei eventually spent 4,500 yuan to buy the most famous motorcycle at that time.
This made Gu Hongjie extremely happy. He smiled so broadly that his eyes disappeared, and he kept touching and stroking the object with his little hands, clearly unable to put it down.
Gu Wei watched his little actions with a smile, and was sure that if his father were a little taller and a little older, he could probably ride around the whole lap.
