Chapter 28
Gu Yunshuang was clearly furious at this point. He took a few deep breaths, calming himself before continuing, "Three years ago, I had just finished the college entrance exam. When I got home, I learned that my parents had been in a car accident. My dad was seriously injured and in a coma, and my mom was also seriously injured. The driver fled with a fake license plate, and the police couldn't find him. My mom kept it a secret from me so she wouldn't disturb me during the college entrance exam."
"To get my parents medical treatment, we used up all our savings and even sold the house they'd worked so hard to buy. Thankfully, my dad was quickly out of danger. However, the doctor diagnosed him with a strange illness. He remained unconscious, but his eyes were twitching and he had nightmares. Over time, his organs inexplicably began to fail, and even his brain showed signs of atrophy. But no matter how the doctors examined him, they couldn't find the cause."
Qi Yue's face turned even uglier. The plot in the book only said that Gu's father and mother had been in a car accident. Gu's mother was disabled and had to use a wheelchair, and Gu's father was lying in the hospital in a vegetative state. Gu Yunshuang wanted to send Gu's father to the best hospital in the capital and hire the best doctor to treat Gu's father, which required a lot of money, so he was deceived by Xinchao Entertainment into signing the most demanding contract.
It cannot be said to be a scam, it can only be said that Gu Yunshuang had no choice, because this was the only way he knew to make money the fastest.
The plot didn't mention that Dad Gu had contracted this strange disease. And if it weren't for Dad Gu, how could Shuangshuang allow Xinchao Entertainment to exploit and bully her without even saying a word?
I hate that I wasn't by Shuangshuang's side at that time. Shuangshuang must have been panicked and helpless! Otherwise, she wouldn't have been controlled by Xinchao Entertainment and tacitly allowed them to bully her for three years.
In reality, Gu Yunshuang was calmer and smarter than Qi Yue had expected. In the negotiation with Xinchao Entertainment, he didn't just accept everything for the sake of treating his father's illness, and didn't completely follow Xinchao Entertainment's instructions.
Other new artists might not debut for two or three years after signing a contract, but he argued hard and persuaded New Trend Entertainment to let him debut as soon as possible. He also knew that New Trend Entertainment's contract was very demanding, so he strongly requested a three-year contract because he was confident that he could quickly become a star in the entertainment industry.
At that time, Xinchao Entertainment saw that he had the potential to become a huge hit, and thought that if he really became popular in the entertainment industry, in order to keep him, they should indeed offer him a re-signing with better terms. Gu Yunshuang also said that Xinchao Entertainment would be given priority for renewal, and Xinchao Entertainment agreed.
"I took my father to the best hospital in the capital. After examination, the doctor said it was likely a rare genetic disease. It might not be curable. To convince me to go the black-and-red route, Mr. Liu, the general manager of Xinchao Entertainment, helped me find Dr. Edward, the world's leading authority on genetic disease research.
"After Dr. Edward came to treat Dad, his condition did improve. A few days ago, Mom called to say that Dad was showing signs of waking up and might wake up soon.
"But just now, Dr. Edward called and said he couldn't continue treating Dad because he came here at Mr. Liu's invitation. Now Mr. Liu wants him to give up treating Dad, so he agreed."
Gu Yunshuang couldn't help but get anxious as he spoke. Seeing Qiyue looking at him worriedly, his forced strength and composure immediately shattered. With red eyes, he said helplessly, "Brother, what should we do? Dad is about to wake up. If we suddenly stop the treatment now, will he never wake up? Will his condition worsen again in the future?"
Qi Yue opened his mouth, unsure how to help Shuangshuang. He couldn't even give her a comforting hug. For the first time, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. It turned out that becoming the Ghost King didn't mean he could do anything.
Sun Zhanyuan was so angry that he cursed: "What a lousy foreign doctor! He has absolutely no medical ethics. Everything he does is based on money and power. He can so easily say he can't treat a patient. Does he even know what respecting life means?"
Sun Jiayuan said, "Shuangshuang, give me Dr. Edward's contact information. I'll try to contact him. No matter what his conditions are, I will try my best to meet them."
Gu Yunshuang was very grateful, but was afraid that Sun Jiayuan would bleed heavily for him. However, for his father, he gritted his teeth and gave out his contact number. He decided in his heart that he must repay the Sun family in the future. The Sun family helped them so much.
Qi Yue's mood improved a little, and he also kept the Sun family's kindness in his heart.
However, Sister Sun returned after more than an hour with bad news. No matter how much she tried to persuade him, Dr. Edward was determined not to continue treating Mr. Gu, unless Mr. Liu came in person to persuade him.
They all understood what this meant. This forced Gu Yunshuang to take the initiative to bow to Mr. Liu and plead humbly.
Afterwards, they could all imagine how difficult the conditions Mr. Liu would propose would be.
They also understood that while it was Boss Liu who was forcing Gu Yunshuang, the real person behind the scenes was Jiang Honghui, who was behind Boss Liu. They had already witnessed the extent of Jiang Honghui's malice towards Gu Yunshuang.
Therefore, none of them wanted Gu Yunshuang to suffer such humiliation.
Qi Yue secretly thought that he would find an excuse to leave later. First, he would go meet Mr. Liu, then go find Jiang Honghui, and then find Dr. Edward. At this moment, the anger and murderous intent in his heart surged violently. A faint red crimson crept into his eyes.
At this time, Gu Yunshuang's cell phone rang again, and this time it was Gu's mother calling.
Gu Yunshuang's heart tightened, and he quickly answered the phone. Unexpectedly, he heard Gu's mother's very happy voice.
It turned out that when Mother Gu learned that Dr. Edward was leaving, she was extremely anxious and desperate. She even dared not contact Gu Yunshuang about anything. She also knew what conditions Gu Yunshuang had agreed to in order to treat her father's illness.
She really didn't want to cause any more trouble for Gu Yunshuang, so she thought about asking Dr. Edward for help herself.
Unexpectedly, when she knelt down and cried for Dr. Edward, an old doctor named Wu heard it and came over to ask.
Dr. Wu is also an internationally renowned expert in genetic disease research. Three years ago, his research achievements were not as good as Dr. Edward's, but today, three years later, things are different.
Dr. Edward was also breathless in response to his questioning.
After learning about Mr. Gu's condition, Mr. Wu immediately expressed his desire to take over Mr. Gu's treatment and took the initiative to invite Dr. Edward to participate in Mr. Gu's treatment.
Dr. Edward had some flaws in his medical ethics and character, but he was extremely passionate about his professional research. He was truly impressed by Dr. Wu's abilities and thought that working with him would be very beneficial, so he immediately agreed.
Mother Gu cried with joy and hurriedly called Gu Yunshuang to tell him the good news, and also to tell him not to worry and that he would no longer be threatened by Xinchao Entertainment in the future.
The sudden turn of events left Qi Yue and the others stunned for a while, and then they were all very happy.
Gu Yunshuang was very happy. He looked at Qi Yue with a smile and said, "Over the past few years, my parents and I have been getting more and more unlucky. Nothing we do has gone well. After we get over a hurdle, there are always bigger hurdles waiting for us. I never thought there would be a day when things would turn around. It seems that since you came back, my parents and I have had a change of fortune. Brother, you are really our lucky star!"
Qi Yue was stunned when he heard this. A flash of inspiration came to his mind, so fast that he couldn't catch it.
At this time, Doctor Wu was on the phone with Director Lin. "Director Lin, I've been to the hospital. The disease is indeed difficult to treat, and the cause is still unknown. However, Dr. Edward and I are working together and are very confident that the patient will recover as soon as possible. Don't worry, even if it were any other ordinary patient, I would not be less dedicated, let alone Lao Qi's nephew.
"When Lao Qi passed away, you didn't go to see him off, but I did. I remember that the Gu family was busy helping out with everything, and they cried so hard. They really treated Lao Qi as one of their own.
"And Qi Yue. We only met briefly back then. He was only fifteen or sixteen years old. His face was stern the entire time. He was clearly heartbroken, but he had to act like a grown-up and force himself to not shed a single tear. I don't know if he's been doing well these past few years.
"Old Qi, what a fool! Life is so good back home! Why did he insist on sending his child abroad? If he stayed in China, with so many old friends taking care of him, who would want to let him suffer any injustice?..."
Doctor Wu rambled on and on, tears streaming down his face along the crisscrossing wrinkles.
After Director Lin hung up the phone, he and his assistant boarded a flight to Jiangcheng.

In the Xinchao Entertainment office, President Liu was also on the phone with someone, saying smugly, "Mr. Jiang, are you still worried? Gu Yunshuang's weakness is his parents, otherwise he wouldn't have let us manipulate him without saying a word for the past three years. Every time we threatened him with Dr. Edward, didn't he always obey and commit crimes? This time will be the same. It won't be long before he comes back to beg me. When that time comes, I will make him obedient and serve as a stepping stone for nephew Mingshuang and Master Xue. He won't dare to have any other thoughts."
However, Jiang Honghui on the other end of the phone was not very happy, especially when he heard Mr. Liu say that Gu Yunshuang's weakness was his parents, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Oh no! Mr. Liu!" Mr. Liu's secretary suddenly pushed the door open and rushed in, looking extremely anxious and panicked.
Mr. Liu was very dissatisfied and shouted angrily, "What are you yelling about? You've been a secretary for so many years, how can you still be so reckless? Can't you see I'm on the phone with Mr. Jiang?"
The secretary shrank his neck when he was scolded, lowered his head, listened obediently and admitted his mistake.
Mr. Liu cursed for a while, and when he felt that he had regained some face in front of Jiang Honghui, he softened his tone and asked, "What happened? Why are you so scared?"
The secretary feigned composure and replied, "Someone called the police to report you for secretly hosting a brothel and forcing the company's artists to participate. You also deliberately murdered Mu Ju, faking it as a suicide by jumping from a building. A troll army company has also collectively reported you for hiring trolls to cyberbully the company's artists. A lot of police have arrived and surrounded the company."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of policemen rushed in and handed Mr. Liu and his secretary a pair of silver bracelets.
Mr. Liu: “…………”
Why the hell didn’t you tell me such an important thing earlier!
It just so happened that Jiang Honghui was talking on the phone with General Manager Liu at that time, and someone pointed out that General Manager Liu was instructed by Jiang Honghui, so Jiang Honghui was also summoned to the police station to cooperate with the investigation.
Qi Yue received Mu Ju's reply with satisfaction.
The one who reported Mr. Liu for organizing a silver party to murder Mu Ju was none other than Wang Qiang, the staff member of the program who wanted to plot against Gu Yunshuang in the Pen Fairy game during the live broadcast but failed and was instead haunted by Mu Ju's ghost.
Mu Ju had been pestering him for the past two days, making him miserable. In order to get Mu Ju to let him go, he had no choice but to follow Mu Ju's request and report the case to the police station with the evidence Mu Ju had hidden.
And those water armies finally couldn't stand it anymore after experiencing the horror of having their tongues and hands cut off in their dreams for two consecutive nights. Will this punishment ever end?
Someone couldn't help but ask the little ghosts, but it turned out that the little ghosts ignored him and just tortured them with a laugh.
But today, before it got dark, they suddenly fell asleep with their eyes open. In their dreams, they heard the little devils ask them, "Want a reduced sentence? Turn yourself in, make amends, and you can get a reduced sentence."
The sober water soldiers immediately came to their senses and rushed to the police station as quickly as possible, dragging their arms in plaster to surrender. They gave out all the information about their clients without any interrogation, for fear that if they were slow, the credit would be snatched away by others, who would then be able to atone for their sins and reduce their punishment, while they would continue to suffer the inhumane pain of having their tongues and hands cut off.
The police had long been keeping an eye on Xinchao Entertainment, but they hadn't had enough evidence and were afraid to alert the suspects, so they didn't dare to take any action. After receiving the report, they immediately took action and surrounded Xinchao Entertainment.
This news quickly caused a huge sensation on the Internet.
