Chapter 95: The Supporting Actress Whose Work Was Stealthed by Her Sister
No one present had reacted yet.
Brother Hua, who was sitting next to Gu Wan, had his eyes wide open, still in shock. After he recovered, he spoke in a stern tone.
"Gu Wan, let go, let go quickly."
The people around who were still a little drunk stood up, and they finally sobered up a little.
Gu Wan let go of her hand.
Brother Hua and the person next to him quickly stepped forward to help him up.
"Mr. Zhang, are you okay?" Brother Hua's tone was very panicked.
Mr. Zhang didn't know whether he was angry or drunk, but his eyes were red and he glared at Gu Wan.
"Gu Wan, I'm telling you, I'm going to make it impossible for you to survive in the provincial capital. Just wait for me." He pointed at Gu Wan.
Gu Wan looked at the situation and was afraid that he would hit himself if someone hadn't held him back.
"Okay, then I'll wait and see whether Changzhou goes bankrupt first or I fail first." After she said that, she lifted her skirt and walked away.
Mr. Zhang's curses came from the box, each one louder than the last.
Gu Wan turned off the recorder.
Of course, she wouldn't be stupid enough to go against these people, or even those in higher positions. That would only put her in a situation where she couldn't deal with it, not to mention that she couldn't compete with them given her status.
Gu Wan called a taxi to go home at the hotel entrance. As a reporter, she came into contact with many people in different positions. Some so-called justice was still too small in H Province. The bigger the news, the better. She would not overestimate her own abilities.
On the 22nd floor of the International Hotel, a man wearing a high-end suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses was staring at something in a daze.
"President, Mr. Sun and the others are almost here."
"Yeah." He nodded lightly and indifferently, "Let's go."
Gu Wan went home, edited the contents of the recorder, and sent it to a marketing account. It was someone she had met by chance before. He was a nice person, except that he talked too much. She called the number, turned on the speakerphone, and put the phone on the table.
"Xu Liang, I've sent you the content. I hope this matter will become more and more serious."
A nonchalant voice came.
"Fuck, Reporter Gu, if you do this, who will protect you if something happens?"
Gu Wan looked at the recording on the computer and said, "It doesn't matter. If I can't be a reporter, I can still do something else. I'll always be able to work."
This time she must confront this big fish.
"Alright, alright, we're close friends."
"Thanks, you remember the IP address."
The other party just said "oh" and hung up the phone.
Gu Wan wanted them to pay the price, and there had to be an explanation. All the money earned by ordinary people was spent on a house, and she couldn't just ignore it.
The next morning, Gu Wan was awakened by the ringing phone.
"Get up, go online and see what you've done. It's all on the trending searches. Other short videos and question-and-answer apps are also on the trending searches. Everyone is very excited." Xu Liang said with a slight sigh and some sadness.
Gu Wan slept very late last night. She took out her phone and squinted her eyes to open the hot search list. Many times, factual news does not require any evidence at all. Just some dialogue can intensify the conflict. On the contrary, some things have too much evidence, and some people will feel bored and will not click to read it.
She reached out and pressed her forehead. She was very clear about the rules beyond these rules.
"It's hard work. I won't tell you anymore. My boss called."
The other party also hung up.
"Brother Hua."
Gu Wan knew that she could be guessed, and no one present would leak the recording except her, but he had no evidence.
Brother Hua is already overwhelmed. The trouble caused by Gu Wan last night has not been resolved yet, and now there is another big one.
"Gu Wan, what on earth do you want to do?"
Gu Wan listened to the roar, moved the phone a little further away, and turned on the speakerphone again.
"Brother Hua, what are you talking about?"
Of course she would not admit to such a recorded cell phone call.
Brother Hua snorted coldly, but his tone became calm.
"Gu Wan, do you think you can get away with it? You've offended too many people. Your future won't be easy."
Gu Wan got up from the bed. Brother Hua was not a fool. His roar just now was just a show for her to see.
"Brother Hua, what are you talking about? My phone always has an automatic recording function. I will keep such exhausting and threatening words."
After she finished speaking, the only sound left on the phone was a beep, and the other party had hung up.
Gu Wan saw that all major social media platforms were discussing this matter, and she had already angered everyone. For the entire May Day holiday, this matter had been dominating the hot search platforms and had exploded.
A notice has also been issued from above that this matter will be investigated by a higher-level department. A special task force has also been set up, and we will give everyone a response as soon as possible.
After the holiday, Gu Wan went back to work calmly. Her colleagues greeted her when they saw her coming.
"Gu Wan, what do you think about the Changzhou incident?"
Gu Wan put down her bag and put on her work badge.
"That's good. It's a good thing that it came out."
My colleague also nodded.
Brother Hua walked in with a cold face and tapped on Gu Wan's desk with his fingers, "Gu Wan, come with me to the office."
Gu Wan nodded and followed. She could probably guess, but she had evidence.
Brother Hua sat in the office, looking at Gu Wan standing in front of him, silent, and then spoke.
"Gu Wan, things have gotten out of control now. I can't lead you anymore. I'll talk to the director and have you transferred to another team. Also, don't even think about getting off easy. I think it's easy to punish you."
Gu Wan pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother Hua, you should cherish your time working at the station. Do you really think you can stay here safely?"
He has received a lot of things from these people over the years.
Brother Hua seemed to be meeting Gu Wan for the first time. He had been working there for more than ten years.
"Gu Wan, don't go too far. I am your master."
Gu Wan is very rational.
"Master, you should have thought about this day before you did these things." Her eyes were very cold. After she said that, she turned around, opened the office door and walked out.
Just three days.
The station issued a notice that Brother Hua had been fired.
Gu Wan was also called in for a talk. The content was, first, to ask her to take over the work at hand, and second, to warn her, hoping that she would not do anything illegal and disorderly, like the old comrades.
Of course Gu Wan was very obedient.
The Changzhou Enterprise incident was finally resolved in just half a month. All the people involved were arrested one after another, and the real estate project was taken over by a special responsible agency to resolve subsequent issues.
"Mr. Gu, let's have a meal together to celebrate our victory."
Gu Wan glanced at the schedule.
"I don't have time. I'm very busy lately."
Xu Liang was just a little regretful.
"You're so busy, you'll never get married. I almost suspect you're not a woman, but an Ultraman, sent to Earth specifically to deal with monsters. Look at the cases you handle, every one of them is a near-death experience. You really put your entire fortune on the line every time."
Gu Wan finished the final version of the manuscript and turned off the computer.
"Not all of my wealth." Everything she did was within her ability, and this was the only gift she could give to the original owner. If the original owner had not been subjected to online violence because of her confession and had not committed suicide, she would definitely have become a good reporter.
"Okay, I won't compliment you, female Ultraman. I need to take a break. See you later." After saying that, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
Gu Wan had just hung up the phone when Gu Shengwen called.
Gu Wan always had a good impression of this uncle.
"Uncle, what's wrong?"
Gu Shengwen smiled and said, "Come back for dinner in a couple of days. Jingjing is coming back soon."
Gu Wan frowned. She hadn't seen Gu Jingjing for five years. It was just very strange. According to the development of the original novel, she should have been very famous by now.
"Uncle, I've been busy with work lately and may not be able to spare the time for the time being."
She wasn't lying, she was indeed very busy, with so much work to do and so many manuscripts to finish.
Gu Shengwen also understood. He always thought she was quiet, well-behaved and introverted when she was a child, but he didn't expect her to work so hard.
"Okay, it's okay. You can eat regularly from now on." He paused and said, "Take care of yourself and take care of your health."
Gu Wan nodded, "Okay, uncle too." After hanging up the phone, she took a look at her phone, picked up her bag, turned off the lights in the office area, and walked out of the office building. Working overtime was something she often did, but when she came out, she found that it was raining outside. She stood at the door and looked around. Her home was next door, and it would only take ten minutes to walk back. However, she would definitely be soaked when she got home. After taking a look, she prepared to jog back.
Just as she was about to run out in the rain, a car sped past her, splashing mud and water all over her. It was dark and rainy, and the heavy rain blocked people's vision. She couldn't see the license plate number clearly. She went back home, took a shower, and washed her clothes.
After work, she took some time to go to the security department, looked up yesterday's surveillance video, checked the license plate number, and took photos and asked Xu Liang to check the car.
It's not that she holds a grudge, but she thinks that she has offended too many people and they are deliberately taking revenge on her. However, she feels that it is not right. If someone really wants to take revenge on her, they would probably kidnap her, hit her, or even kill her with a knife.
But in recent years, most of the dangerous things she did were like this time, using someone else's knife or doing it in secret.
"Mr. Gu, are you afraid of this?"
Gu Wan looked at the message and typed a reply.
"Let me know if you find out."
Soon, at two o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Liang sent a message.
"The car belongs to Shen's Group. This is a recent photo of the car. Have you offended Shen's?"
Gu Wan looked at the photo sent to her, clicked to enlarge it, and she thought of someone.
"Well, I offended him about five years ago."
"Fuck, Gu Wan, you are so awesome, how did you survive?" Xu Liang sent several emoticons in succession to express his sarcasm.
Gu Wan actually didn't think that what she did back then was wrong. Although she took advantage of Chen Shao, she also made him become very outstanding, which was her compensation. Although it was not quite right to say so, she thought so. If he really did it, then forget it.
Seeing that Gu Wan didn't reply to the message, the other party's tone became serious again.
"It should be fine. Although Shen's is doing very well, your uncle's family has extensive cooperation with them. They won't do anything to you. Your information has been kept very secret over the years. I can't even find your parents' names and home addresses, let alone others."
It was Gu Wan who did it. She used some tricks to hide this relationship.
"It's okay, it's a personal grudge."
The other party wanted to gossip, but Gu Wan did not reply.
It has been five years since this happened, even if it is forever in the past, but it is still very childish to deliberately splash water on others while driving.
The author has something to say:
