Chapter 114 Claim
Although Jiang Wu is not a top-tier celebrity, he has been a hot topic in the past six months. If he doesn't appear, it's fine. But every time he appears, he is always on the front row of hot searches, and his tactics are not replicable by others. Those studios that specially spent money to buy hot searches for marketing have lost their money. Therefore, someone quickly took the opportunity to spread the news of the tie clip.
The tie clip worth 500,000 yuan undoubtedly made Jiang Wucai's always strong and clean personality shaky. A marketing account finally "exposed" that Jiang Wucai was not a poor white flower, but a smooth and sophisticated person who fawned on rich people in private.
In addition, many "insiders" came forward and said that they had seen Jiang Wu going in and out of Ziyuan and the wealthy areas in the western suburbs, but they did not know whose house he was going to.
Netizens all love gossip, especially gossip about rich people, not to mention that those who can live in Ziyuan and Xijiao are not ordinary rich people, but the truly powerful and influential people in Linhai. So they all started asking the passerby who broke the news for photos or videos, wanting to know whose house Jiang Wu went to.
As for whether it was true or not at the beginning, not many people have explored it.
Jiang Wu's fans reported the rumor and at the same time called on Zhang Xiaoyu and Jiang Wu to sue the black fans and come out to clarify the matter on their Weibo homepages.
Jiang Wuben didn't want to respond, but he saw the message "Jiang Jiang Hao" in his comment section, so he replied.
Jiang Wu@姜姜好: The tie clip is temporarily borrowed from someone else.
This comment at least gave fans some confidence, but netizens who were just watching the show didn't buy it, saying that if the tie clip was borrowed temporarily, then why didn't the guests of the "Exploration" program come out to claim it? Could Jiang Wu have borrowed it from a Taoist priest in a Taoist temple?
The other guests of "Exploration Journey" were speechless. Although they did not see who gave the tie clip to Jiang Wu, they knew who the tie clip belonged to. After all, they had seen it on the Korean president that day. Only a fool would not know who gave it to Jiang Wu, but they could not say it and could only pretend not to know.
However, Guan Qi, who had joined the filming crew seamlessly before, found some time to post a Weibo, asking Ji Ruoxuan if he had any fun recently. Ji Ruoxuan replied that it was nothing, except that he, Brother Jiang, was going to start overcoming difficulties again.
The concerted efforts of these two people have awakened many netizens. After all, Jiang Wu was wrongly accused and blackened by the entire network not long ago. Netizens do not want to be used by people like Zuo Ran and Ke Xingyan again.
However, there were also many people who seized on the issue of the tie clip and insisted that Jiang Wu directly reply who lent it to him.
In the small group of Jiang Wu and Ji Ruoxuan, Ji Ruoxuan was cursing and advising Jiang Wu not to pay attention to him or give a direct reply. Suddenly, he said that someone had claimed the tie clip.
Jiang Wugang was about to ask why Han Zhong was checking Weibo while at work, but when he checked, he found that the person who claimed the tie clip was not Han Zhong, but a strange account he didn't recognize.
LIMU: It’s rare to see so many people discussing my work from many years ago online. I’m very grateful for everyone’s love. I’m also grateful to Mr. Jiang Wu for allowing my work to be shown to the public again [smile][smile][smile]
This account has only 2,000 fans, but it is officially certified as the founder and chief designer of the LIMU jewelry brand.
The people in the front row of the comment section were just as confused as Jiang Wu -
Chi Chi Gui: Who is this? [question mark]
Don’t want to memorize words: A tie clip designer, is he famous?
Three Thousand Weak Waters: Please remove the word "?" from the above thread. She is super famous, please! That is Li Mu, the brand founder of LIMU!
Sophia: My goodness, I was wondering why a tie clip is worth half a million dollars. It doesn’t even look like it has many diamonds on it. It turns out to be a LIMU product, one of Ms. Li Mu’s early designs. Half a million dollars is really not a lot of money.
When I have money: Friends who don’t understand what I said above, listen carefully. LIMU is the number one luxury jewelry design brand in China. The works designed by Li Mu himself can make your idols suffer a lot. Do you understand?
Love to help old ladies through red lights: The necklace that Zhong Xue wore at the Charlene dinner two years ago was from LIMU. However, Li Mu has been semi-retired in the past few years and has not produced many works, which is a pity.
Intellectual love ceiling: emmm... I'm just making a blind guess, is it possible that LIMU has sought cooperation with Jiang Wu?
Jasmine Milk Green: What we are saying is, can Jiang Wu fans have some self-awareness? LIMU has never found a spokesperson, and even if they want to find a spokesperson, it should be a top star like Zhong Xue or Ke Xingyan.
Fate Echo: It’s so funny. You don’t think you can become a top star just by selling a few trending searches. An 18th-tier star wants to be the spokesperson for the most luxurious jewelry?
A piece of ginger: No official announcement, no promises. We ginger never said that.
…
Jiang Wu spent a long time browsing the comments section but couldn't figure out what the relationship was between Li Mu and Han Zhong, nor did he see how the tie clip came into Han Zhong's hands, so he sent a message to Han Zhong, asking him if he knew a woman named Li Mu.
Han Zhong didn't reply to the message, but called instead, and the first thing he said was, "Li Mu is my mother."
Jiang Wu was stunned, "You have a mother?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and after a moment, Han Zhong's speechless voice rang out, "I should have one."
"Did she give you that tie clip?"
"It was my 25th birthday present."
“…”
Jiang Wu was speechless for a moment. When he met Yan Chong, Yan Chong's biological mother had been dead for several years. He rarely heard Yan Chong mention his biological mother. He was also used to Yan Chong having no mother until he mentioned it once when the prince died.
It was said that the woman had tried to poison her own child to frame someone else in order to win favor, but her plan was exposed and she completely fell out of favor.
As the child of that woman, Yan Chong not only did not receive any mercy, but was denounced by the emperor as "born of a lowly person, with an evil root and inferior nature". He was sent to the cold palace and became a prince in name only. In addition to being bullied by the eunuchs and palace maids, he was also beaten and scolded by his biological mother every day.
In the end, the woman hanged herself in the cold palace on a cold winter night. That day was Yan Zhong's birthday. It was unknown who she was taking revenge on.
Han Joong's mother specially designed a tie clip for him as a birthday present on his 25th birthday. She has her own business and enjoys a high reputation in the industry. It can be seen that she is a very outstanding woman and loves her children very much. Han Joong also mentions her without hesitation and always wears the birthday gift she gave him.
This made Jiang Wu realize once again the difference between Han Zhong and Yan Zhong.
"Jiang Wu?" After hearing the silence for a while, she was worried that he was angry that she had disclosed their relationship without his consent. "It wasn't me who said that. It was my father who said that. Then my mother must have recognized the tie clip, so..."
Han paused and whispered, "Since my mother has come forward, it means she doesn't object to the two of us—"
Jiang Wu suddenly interrupted him and asked, "How does your father treat you?"
Han Zhong didn't know why he suddenly asked this, but he still replied, "It's good, because he has always felt guilty about some things in the past, but I know he loves me very much. As for why I don't meet with them very often, I will tell you slowly in the future..."
On the other end of the phone, Han Zhong whispered in an unskilled tone about his parents' affairs. They were all trivial and ordinary things. There was no family feud among the rich as imagined by the outside world, nor was there the father-son fratricide and unfortunate childhood of Jiang Wuwei.
Jiang Wu leaned back on the sofa with his head raised, holding his cell phone in one hand and the Nine-Layer Soul-Guiding Bell in the other, looking around quietly, his eyes filled with a hint of melancholy and confusion.
You live such a happy life in this life, Yan Zhong, I worry too much.
