This piece of entertainment news that made mainland China furious was certainly not what the media said.
That night, it wasn't just Chu Xiu and Gu Qinghe who went out for supper, there was also He Yihuan.
The fairy drama that Chu Xiu had participated in before was not finished yet, and He Yihuan had been staying in the film and television city in Xicheng. This time, when she heard that Chu Xiu was coming to film again, and was the heroine, He Yihuan was very happy for her. She took half a day off when she didn't have so many scenes to visit the set. She also planned to use Chu Xiu's bed and sleep with her that night.
Originally, the two of them were planning to go out for a midnight snack, but when they went out, they happened to meet Gu Qinghe. He Yihuan had some friendship with Gu Qinghe, so he invited him to go along.
As a result, when they came out after having supper, Chu Xiu and Gu Qinghe were photographed. At that time, He Yihuan was talking on the phone and was just a few steps behind them, so he did not appear in the photo.
Considering Gu Qinghe's rich love history, the media took the information out of context and said that the two were dating.
In fact, the day after the scandal broke out, Gu Qinghe and He Yihuan both clarified the matter on Weibo. He Yihuan posted a photo of the three of them having supper together, and both Gu Qinghe and Chu Xiu forwarded it.
Because of the interaction between the three people, Weibo was hot for a while, and Chu Xiu's popularity also increased.
But mainlanders and foreigners read newspapers and only saw the revelations but not the clarifications, which is why they appear so angry and frustrated.
Without thinking much, he put down the newspaper and called Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu was putting on makeup when she received a call from Lu Yuanzhou. She was a little surprised. He suddenly returned to South City two days ago without leaving a single message. Chu Xiu recalled their previous interactions and thought that he might be angry with her, but she didn't know what made him unhappy. She didn't want to know. Many times, she felt that Lu Yuanzhou's temper was difficult to deal with, and she didn't need to deal with him.
And it was good for Lu Yuanzhou to leave. You know, sleeping with him put a lot of pressure on her. Before, she thought it was just a marriage agreement, and they didn't need to have too much contact, and they should just live their own lives in private, but she didn't expect so many problems to arise later. She could help him relieve headaches and cure her insomnia. She was like a human medicine for him.
She began to doubt the old man's intention in giving her the lucky bag. Was it not a blessing bag, but a marriage bag? Regardless of the cause and effect, he directly tied her to Lu Yuanzhou.
People like Lu Yuanzhou are used to being in a superior position. In his eyes, many things are not worth mentioning at all, such as love. In his opinion, love is something without value and there is no need to bother thinking about it.
The reason why he was nice to her was simply because she could help him cure his illness and bring him benefits, and that was all.
Therefore, when dealing with a man like this, it is best to stay rational and never get entangled with him emotionally. It is totally unnecessary.
"What's up?" she asked into the phone.
All I heard was Lu Yuanzhou angrily questioning her on the other end, "Chu Xiu, does your face hurt? You just told me to be faithful to your marriage, but the next day you went out for supper with another man. Do you think the media is blind or that I'm mentally retarded?"
Chu Xiu: ...
When this man got angry, he even cursed himself.
After he finished speaking, Chu Xiu replied slowly, "Where did you see the news? Website push? Weibo?"
Lu Yuanzhou crumpled up the newspaper in his hand and said, "Does it make any difference?"
Chu Xiu said, "It's a big difference. The message you pushed might be from last night, but it was clarified on Weibo this morning, and the news has passed. It's a little late for you to question me now, Mr. Lu, your news is a little blocked!"
Mainland China: …
"I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go filming. If you have time, just check out Weibo. That's it. Bye." Chu Xiu said and hung up the phone without waiting for his response.
Lu Yuanzhou stared at the phone for two seconds before he opened Weibo. After browsing Weibo, Lu Yuanzhou exited the app with red ears.
Then he pounded the table in embarrassment and frustration.
Butler Liu, who was wiping the table with a rag, was startled by him and asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yuanzhou sighed, thought for a moment, and said to Butler Liu: "Uncle Liu, I feel like something is wrong with me these days."
Butler Liu looked at him and said, "A little bit."
Lu Yuanzhou looked up at him in surprise, "Did you figure it out?"
Butler Liu said, "I was just echoing what you said."
Mainland China: …
Lu Yuanzhou suddenly didn't want to speak anymore. He felt that he couldn't make any sense out of the conversation with Butler Liu. Moreover, his mood was a bit complicated and subtle at the moment, and he himself couldn't quite figure it out.
Because he was worried, Lu Yuanzhou's face was not in a good mood when he went to work. During the regular meeting, the supervisors made their reports with trepidation.
While listening, he was distracted by Chu Xiu's matter. He picked up his phone and opened WeChat. The chat history between the two of them stopped many days ago.
His hands itched and he wanted to click on it to send her something, but he held back and listened to the report attentively for a while. His fingers uncontrollably clicked on WeChat Moments again, and he unexpectedly discovered that Chu Xiu had just posted a new status.
“The little flowers on the roadside are very beautiful.”
The accompanying picture is a small white flower, which looks very beautiful with a dot filter.
Lu Yuanzhou thought for a moment and replied, "Don't pick wild flowers on the roadside."
Chu Xiu was probably playing with her phone at the time. After seeing his message, she was speechless and immediately replied to him alone: "So you are the family flower?"
Lu Yuanzhou looked at Chu Xiu's brief reply and a dark blush appeared uncontrollably on his face.
After get off work in the evening, Lu Yuanzhou was asked by Dong Dongjian to go out and play cards. He thought it would be boring to go home, so he agreed. However, he was teased by Dong Dongjian when he got there.
"Brother Zhou, as a married person, aren't you much different from us single people? How pitiful!"
Because of this sentence, Dong Dongjian was almost beaten to tears by Lu Yuanzhou at the mahjong table. After throwing the last chip, Dong Dongjian said in a rude manner: "I don't want to play anymore. There are three of you besieging me, but I am still the poorest one among you. You are too despicable and shameless!"
The other two card-playing friends also often play with Lu Yuanzhou and Dong Dong. They have a good relationship with each other and are merciless when teasing each other.
One of them said, "Dongjian, you haven't been doing well lately. Have you got a girlfriend? Your body has been drained and you are so weak!"
Another person added: "That's right, you can see his hands are shaking when he touches the cards."
After saying this, they both burst into laughter.
Dong Dongjian was furious and said, "What are you talking about? I am shaking because of you!"
Lu Yuanzhou sat aside, with his arms folded, watching the three people bickering with each other. He thought it was quite funny at first, but as he watched more, he suddenly found it boring.
It was pointless for a few big bosses to argue with each other. It was more fun than arguing with Chu Xiu. However, it seemed that he hadn't argued with Chu Xiu for a long time.
When they were not familiar with each other at the beginning, he was more comfortable talking back to her, but later on he was less so, as if he found it difficult to do so.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuanzhou stood up irritably and said, "No more fighting." Then he went to the small bar nearby to pour himself a glass of wine.
He found that he seemed to have thought of Chu Xiu quite a lot today.
After a while, Dong Dong also came over to drink. Seeing that Lu Yuanzhou was unhappy, he said, "What's wrong, Brother Zhou? You look absent-minded. Are you missing your sister-in-law?"
Lu Yuanzhou seemed to have been hurt, and immediately turned around and glared at him, "Shut up."
Dong Dongjian: …
Seeing that Lu Yuanzhou had no intention of speaking, Dong Dongjian sat down on the high stool next to him and took out his cell phone to send a message to his new girlfriend.
Dong Dongjian has a friend who is engaged in media investment. He knows many people in the entertainment industry. As a result, Dong Dongjian's several girlfriends were also from the entertainment industry, but they were all small-time celebrities without fame.
Recently he started dating someone new, a fresh graduate from college who looks a bit innocent. Dong Dongjian is quite interested in her. Even when he was playing cards with his friends, he still remembered to send messages to chat with his girlfriend.
Because he did not avoid suspicion when sending the message, Lu Yuanzhou sat beside them and watched their conversation openly.
Dong Dongjian asked: "Little baby, what are you doing?"
The girlfriend replied: "I'm thinking about you, baby."
Dong Dongjian's eyes narrowed in a smile instantly, and Lu Yuanzhou frowned and turned away, feeling that it was a bit embarrassing to watch. But after a few seconds, he could not help but turned back and continued to watch.
Dong Dongjian didn't even raise his head and continued sending messages.
Dong Dongjian: "Are you so good? I miss you too! Muahmuah~~~"
Girlfriend: "Hold the big baby and hug him~~~"
Then the two of them came and went there.
Lu Yuanzhou couldn't help but interrupt and asked, "What the hell is this?"
Dong Dongjian looked as if he had seen an alien, and said, "Momo means kissing. Brother Zhou, are you too out of date to know this?"
"If you can't see or touch it, what's the point of you coming and going like this?" Lu Yuanzhou said puzzledly.
Dong Dongjian rolled his eyes and said, "I don't want to have a love story with a money-making machine without any emotions."
Mainland China: …
Dong Dongjian said to his girlfriend again: "I haven't had the chance to visit you in Dongcheng recently, but I have ordered flowers for you for a month, one bouquet a day, so that you can see the flowers as if you see the person. When the flowers are finished, it will be time for you to come back."
The girlfriend replied excitedly: "Really? My dear, I love you so much. You are more beautiful than flowers!"
Lu Yuanzhou commented at the right time: "You are completely distorting the facts. You are prettier than a blade of grass, how can you be prettier than a flower?"
Dong Dongjian put down his phone, wiped his face, and said to Lu Yuanzhou: "Brother, no wonder you are still alone after getting married, you are destined to be alone!!"
After Dong Dongjian gave up on him, he picked up his phone, checked the web, and then made a phone call to a flower shop in Dongcheng. He had ordered a month's supply of roses from them to have flowers delivered to his baby every day.
After placing the order and paying, Dong Dongjian hummed a song in a good mood and turned around to ask Lu Yuanzhou: "Brother, have you sent flowers to your sister-in-law?"
Speaking of this, Lu Yuanzhou became more confident and nodded and said, "I have."
Dong Dongjian's eyes lit up and he said, "It's OK. It's not hopeless yet. The roses you sent me?"
Lu Yuanzhou: "I gave you some dogtail grass."
Dong Dongjian: …
Lu Yuanzhou: "She seems to like it very much."
Dong Dongjian finally found his voice and said, "I take back what I said just now. Your straight male disease has reached the terminal stage and there is no cure!"
Lu Yuanzhou glared at him unconvinced.
The two sat in silence for a while, then Lu Yuanzhou took out his phone and asked, "How do I order flowers?"
