Chapter 112: Regarding status, he has no regrets in his life
Previous life.
——
Wu Rui was a child star, and she was extremely proud. She just didn't expect that there would be a female star of the same age who could compete with her, and the two looked quite similar.
She was extremely angry, thinking that Ning Zhi was using her popularity to debut and stepping on her to get to the top. Wu Rui was so angry that she wanted to die.
It was natural that the two of them had a private feud, and Wu Rui did not try to hide this fact, which could also be seen on the Internet.
Originally, it was just a verbal dispute, which would have caused some reputational problems, but she had accumulated years of experience and was not afraid of it. Her straightforward personality also attracted many fans.
Unexpectedly, both of them were nominated for Best Actress for the movies they starred in, but in the end it was Ning Zhi who took away the trophy and became famous all over the country with the halo of "the youngest Best Actress".
Comparing the two, Wu Rui received even louder criticism. As a child star, she surprisingly didn't even win a trophy.
Netizens like to zoom in and spread the picture, and the story gets spread that she has become ugly and has lost her childhood charm.
Wu Rui thought that her performance was better, and Ning Zhi won the trophy, which must have been due to someone's help behind the scenes.
Everyone was in the same circle, and Wu Rui had heard a lot of gossip that there was indeed someone protecting Ning Zhi.
She didn't know who it was, but that didn't stop Wu Rui from being angry.
Within a few days, the news of the "award ceremony scandal" broke out, and speculation about Ning Zhi's winning was overwhelming.
Wu Yue was also paying attention to this point, which was the final turning point of the plot.
She actually didn't want Wu Rui to be such a person, and she had hinted at it in private, but she didn't expect that just like in the plot, this farce about the heroine still happened.
After Ning Zhi was blackened by the entire network, the male protagonist stood up to support her, which brought about a reversal. Ning Zhi's status was raised again, and she quickly gained fans and became a popular female star.
When Wu Yue saw the news, she sighed and silently counted the money in her card. It was enough for her to return to her hometown and live there.
Wu Rui is very proud outside, but she is like a child at home. "Auntie, why don't you eat? This cake is delicious. I brought it back for you. Eat it quickly."
Although Wu Yue was exploiting her to make money according to the plot, she was the one who raised the child and they were as close as mother and daughter. Wu Rui was very dependent on her and regarded her as the only thing in her life. How could she complain? She would only work harder to make money by filming and walking on the runway.
She was angry because she didn't win the Best Actress award. She would lose a lot of money, and her aunt would have less money to spend. Wu Rui felt very upset.
"You silly child, you're still thinking about eating." Wu Yue tapped her forehead. "What's going on online? Did you buy the trending search?"
Wu Rui pouted, "Aunt, you just don't trust me?"
"We have a big conflict, but I just cursed a few times in private. If I hire someone to blackmail you, I have to spend money. I gave all my money to my aunt. If I spent money to hire internet trolls, you would definitely know it." Wu Rui was too disdainful to do this, it would be a waste of money.
She and her aunt are working alone, without any big boss backing them up, so they have to save the money they earn.
Wu Yue touched her hair and said, "I know it wasn't you, but now everyone on the Internet is saying that you did it, and there are pictures and evidence. It's not easy to prove your innocence."
Wu Rui didn't care. "Then I won't prove myself. At worst, I'll just quit the circle."
Wu Yue was surprised by her idea, "Don't you think it's a pity?"
"What's there to regret? I don't like the entertainment industry either. It's so chaotic." Wu Rui laughed, "The money I've earned these years is enough. I can focus on studying at university and then find another job. I have a house and a car, so there's no need to worry. Don't worry, auntie, I will support you in the future."
She doesn't like this job because she will be separated from her aunt often. Wu Rui doesn't have any big dreams. She just wants to make money, buy a good house, and be with her aunt forever.
Wu Yue laughed at her, "You're lying down at such a young age."
"This is the goal of life." Wu Rui lay down and rested his head on Wu Yue's thigh. "Auntie won't mind me being lazy."
Wu Yue smiled and pinched her cheek, "Who said I don't despise you? I really despise you. If you don't work hard to make money, how can I spend it? Your little treasury is not worth spending."
"No, no, my aunt won't dislike me!"
Wu Rui still rolled around in her arms and acted like a spoiled child, just like when she was a child.
The two of them got into a fight.
On the other side, Ning Zhi also got the news.
She was not interested in reading the gossip on the Internet and was really bored.
The agent said, "Could it be Wu Rui who did this?"
It was obvious that the two of them didn't get along, and now that the awards ceremony was underway, it was easy for anyone to think of Wu Rui.
"It can't be her." Ning Zhi said with certainty, "She's not smart, and she doesn't have any money."
What I didn’t say was that I was reluctant to spend the money.
The two of them don't get along, but Ning Zhi knows that Wu Rui has an aunt, and all the money she earned over the years is in her aunt's hands. Wu Rui herself has no money, so she needs to apply for money to spend, and she is strictly controlled.
She has met Wu Rui's aunt, and they have a very good relationship. Unlike what the outside world says that Wu Rui is controlled by her aunt, the two of them get along very lovingly. Ning Zhi admits that this makes her very envious.
The agent frowned, "Who could that be?"
"You'll find out eventually." Ning Zhi didn't care much about this.
People in the entertainment industry, no matter how young they are, are smart. If they pay too much attention to online discussions, they won't go far on this path.
Ning Zhi left the studio and got in the nanny car to go to the Shen family.
It’s not the Shen family either, this is Shen Fuyan’s private territory.
She couldn't go in without permission, but she had contacted Shen Fuyan before coming, and only came when she knew he was there.
Ning Zhi walked in and looked at Shen Fuyan, who was sitting on the sofa signing documents. He looked mature and steady, a successful man in a high position, and his every move was elegant and noble.
After the assistant left with the documents, she went up and stood not far from Shen Fuyan, "Uncle Shen."
Shen Fuyan raised his eyes to look at her, "Well, what's the matter with you coming here?"
The age of early thirties is the beginning of cultivating aura, and it does not make you less sharp even in home clothes.
Ning Zhi lowered her eyes, but said firmly, "I want you to help me return to the Wei family. I will definitely fulfill the conditions you agree to."
This condition was not some private rumor from the outside world that she had developed a deep affection for Uncle Shen Fuyan because of his life-saving grace. Shen Fuyan was a successful businessman who would not hesitate to take advantage of the situation. What he wanted was a piece of land in the hands of the Wei family.
As for helping her at the beginning, it was indeed just after he saw her in trouble and helped her. Shen Fuyan had long forgotten about it.
When he met Ning Zhi again later, she said that she was valuable and could help him make money. Shen Fuyan saw her talent in the entertainment industry and arranged for her to work as an artist in the branch company.
It was indeed as she said, although she was young, her achievements were quite high, and she had fulfilled the promise she had made when she begged Shen Fuyan for help.
It's just that the rumors outside, about love between people with age gaps, reached Shen Fuyan's ears. He thought that people who can think of love in everything must have a problem with their brains.
Shen Fuyan didn't ask why, "Okay."
He only cares about benefits. If the promised conditions are not handed over to him, Shen Fuyan will regard them as opponents without exception.
"Um...Uncle Shen." Ning Zhi hesitated whether to speak.
Every time she stood in front of Shen Fuyan, she felt a little scared. It was not only because of the difference in status and the oppression brought by age, but also because his eyes were too sharp and scary.
As for the rumors that were spread, Ning Zhi also knew some of them. She was speechless. She was only eighteen years old, so let them spread it. Why couldn't they just talk about their relationship as relatives? Why did they have to involve some love affair between people of different ages? It was simply crazy.
She said that she was born in an orphanage and lacked love, but she was extremely sensitive and cautious, and knew better what love was.
For example, the love of family. Wu Rui's aunt loves her very much, which is what Ning Zhi envy and wants to have.
People who lack love will be more touched by the love of their loved ones.
At least for her, Ning Zhi was like that. Her image in the entertainment industry was that of a sunny and cheerful young actress, but in reality, she wasn't like that, and she didn't love to laugh.
Shen Fuyan didn't like to grumble, "Speak."
Ning Zhi said hesitantly, “I seem to…see the person Uncle Shen is looking for.”
Shen Fuyan's gaze immediately locked on her.
He stood up, tall and covered in shadow.
Shen Fuyan half-closed his eyes, “Are you sure.”
"Yes." Ning Zhi nodded. "I wasn't sure at first, but one day, Wu Rui was accompanied by her aunt to an event, and I saw the necklace she was wearing backstage. It was indeed a unique mark of the Shen family."
She knew this because she had seen Shen Fuyan's jewelry, all of which were specially customized by the Shen family's company. Occasionally, she would wear some, but not many.
The secretary beside Shen Fuyan told her that Shen Fuyan did not like outsiders to touch his things. Every item that was brought with him would be branded and unique. There would be no similar items outside, and some were just imitations.
However, few people can get in touch with Shen Fuyan's identity, and those who can get in touch are more concerned about face, and there are almost no imitations.
Ning Zhi was surprised when she saw it and hesitated whether to say it.
But Uncle Shen did have a favor for her. Seeing how hard he worked to find someone, it didn't seem like he was hostile, but rather had feelings for her. Maybe there was some misunderstanding, so Ning Zhi decided to tell him.
Shen Fuyan was no longer in a hurry. He sat down and said calmly, "Tell me all the information you know."
…
Wu Yue doesn't know about these things.
She was counting her money and planning what to do when she returned to her hometown.
Who knows when the male protagonist's revenge will come? Now she is "blacklisted" on the entire Internet, and Wu Rui's reputation is damaged.
Wu Rui herself was also very tough. She didn't say much and just sent out a message of quitting the circle with two words "Go and have fun by yourself" and then there was no further movement.
She had just reached adulthood, and the contracts she signed had all been checked by Wu Yue. The workload was not heavy, and there were no pitfalls left.
She patted her butt and said she would quit the entertainment circle, and didn't care about the outside storm. After cutting off the contact information, she went out to travel with Wu Yue and had a great time.
Wu Yue: “…”
A little girl with a really big heart.
After coming back from playing, Wu Yue planned to pack their luggage and go back to their hometown, where their two elders were waiting for them.
But before she went back, she received an invitation from a friend to attend a party.
Thinking that it would be difficult to meet again if she went back to her hometown, Wu Yue agreed to go. Unexpectedly, this was a "male model" meeting specially arranged by a friend.
My friend was not short of money, so he arranged for the best male models in the store and asked her with a smile, "How is it? Are you satisfied with any of them?"
Wu Yue: “…”
This reminded her of something.
She also attended the dinner party, but accidentally drank too much and walked into the wrong room, and something embarrassing happened.
Later she left and no one knew who she was.
Seeing her stunned, her friend reminded her, "Do you like this type?"
Following her line of sight, I saw that Wu Yue's gaze fell on a muscular man while she was in a daze. The man wanted to be chosen by the beautiful and wealthy woman, so he bent his arms to show his muscles.
Wu Yue: "..." She looked away, not wanting to see the eagerness in the male model's eyes, which seemed to be saying "Choose me quickly".
At first glance, the figure is good, strong, but quite greasy. Wu Yue shook her head and refused, "No, I don't like any of them, you choose."
But just as she finished her words, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Shen Fuyan walked in against the light with a group of bodyguards, and his eyes locked on Wu Yue without letting go.
His footsteps were also moving towards her.
The sound in the box stopped abruptly, and it was quiet. There was only the sound of Shen Fuyan's footsteps as he walked over in his leather shoes. Everyone's eyes were moving between the two of them.
Wu Yue looked at the man who was walking towards her. His face felt familiar and she recalled something. "You..."
"Come with me."
Shen Fuyan came in front of her and directly pulled Wu Yue's arm.
Wu Yue was confused, "No, why should I go with you?"
"Why, tell me why." Shen Fuyan showed five red banknotes, one of which had a lipstick mark on the edge.
The money is the same, so Wu Yue certainly can't tell the difference, but if there is a lipstick mark on it, it will be very obvious.
Isn’t that the “hardship fee” she left that night?
Seeing her expression, Shen Fuyan sneered, "Remember this, I haven't settled this account yet."
"...You think it's too little?" Wu Yue looked at his outfit which cost at least one million yuan. She felt a little guilty because it was indeed too little.
Shen Fuyan raised his eyebrows, “I don’t mind if you want to chat here.”
Wu Yue looked at the gossipy eyes of her friends around her, and she left with Shen Fuyan.
When they were in a corner with few people outside, she asked, "If you think it's not enough, I can add a little more."
Shen Fuyan turned around to look at her, but did not let go of her hand, "Do I look like someone who is short of money?"
Wu Yue was silent, which was really not the case.
She broke the jar and said, "So what do you want to do?"
Shen Fuyan's ears were burning, but he looked at her with burning eyes, "Just compensate me."
Wu Yue was shocked, "What?!"
Later she found out that this person was the male protagonist Shen Fuyan.
As for the heroine, she is now his niece.
Because one of Shen Fuyan's cousins married Wei Zixuan, and Ning Zhi went back to recognize her as her relative, their relationship was that of niece and uncle.
Contrary to rumors, the two do not have any other unnecessary or messy relationship.
Wu Yue really wanted to refuse.
But the system couldn't be contacted, the points were gone, and Shen Fuyan kept pestering me.
It’s true, both of them are not young, but they are in a relationship that is even younger than youth.
at night.
Shen Fuyan was working so hard and sweating that the custom-made bed was shaking, but their battlefield was everywhere.
On the one hand, he wanted to take good care of Wu Yue so that she wouldn't always think of him when she saw the saying "Men are useless after 25". On the other hand, he wanted to make up for the gap he had missed in the past few years.
It's just that, given her age, there are always people outside tempting Wu Yue to get close to her, and Shen Fuyan really wants to confirm her status.
Every time he worked hard to serve her until she was satisfied, he would ask after he was done, "Sister, when will you give me a name?"
This made Wu Yue feel like a "bad girl" who just wanted to play with him.
"good."
"real?"
"You can pretend you didn't hear it."
"I heard it, sister, don't try to lie to me."
Shen Fuyan smiled and held her hand tightly, their fingers intertwined.
The belated affection was enough to melt into syrup the moment they touched, wrapping them up in it and making them inseparable.
Until the moment of his departure a hundred years later, the white-haired Shen Fuyan still regretted that they met too late.
Life is short and there is little time to spend together.
I was quite naive when I was young, and I am still the same when I am old.
Wu Yue said to him, "Then in your next life, you must come find me sooner."
"Sister, I will. Don't walk too fast. Wait for me to find you."
He will go find her at the age when he has no regrets.
——
this life.
At noon, Shen Fuyan took the studio staff out for lunch.
After coming back from racing last night, he was walking lazily when he saw Wu Yue, who was filming, running towards him. He stopped in his tracks and stared blankly at the person not far away.
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally turned into one idea.
He seemed to fall in love with a girl at first sight.
Seeing her about to fall, Shen Fuyan subconsciously ran over to hold her up, holding her firmly in his arms, "Be careful."
At this moment, he seemed to have held up his whole world, and he smiled foolishly, his eyes full of eager concern.
Every day after that, Chen Fuyan was extremely grateful that his impulse had brought him a lifetime of happiness.
He has no regrets in his life.
