Chapter 238 The Real World: An Accidental Encounter with Li Ying at the Club
Seeing Su Jinyue's calm and composed face, Gu Zhiyi, for reasons unknown, looked at Su Jinyue with an air of self-righteousness, as if she had some kind of leverage over her.
"Don't force yourself. Isn't your line of work all about making money?"
However, the sucker you chose is not one of those stupid and foolish nouveau riche. Once Brother Fu finds out your true colors, you will not only lose the money, but you may even face imprisonment.
Therefore, I advise you to stop as soon as possible. How about you name your price, I'll give you the money, but you must leave Brother Fu immediately!
Su Jinyue raised an eyebrow. Did Gu Zhiyi think of her as a gold digger trying to swindle money?
Is Gu Zhiyi overestimating gold diggers, or underestimating Fu Cinian?
Su Jinyue's patience ran out, and she didn't want to get entangled with Gu Zhiyi anymore.
"Miss Gu, Fu Cinian and I are already married. Whether you believe it or not, this is an undeniable fact."
Even if you liked Fu Cinian before, he could never leave me and choose you.
Therefore, Ms. Gu, please stop indulging in wishful thinking and self-pity; none of what you're imagining will become reality.
After saying that, Su Jinyue was about to leave, but after taking two steps, she seemed to remember something, turned around and leaned closer to Gu Zhiyi, and said.
"By the way, Miss Gu, I've already reminded you once before. Fu Cinian is already my husband. I don't want to hear anyone call me 'Brother Fu' anymore. Please make sure to change how you address me from now on!"
"You—" Gu Zhiyi was losing ground to Su Jinyue. Her words not only failed to expose Su Jinyue's weakness, but also provoked her repeatedly.
Enraged, Gu Zhiyi looked at Su Jinyue who was standing nearby. Her actions were faster than her thoughts, and she reached out to slap Su Jinyue!
However, Su Jinyue had already anticipated Gu Zhiyi's actions.
Just as Gu Zhiyi reached out to hit her, Su Jinyue precisely grabbed Gu Zhiyi's wrist.
Su Jinyue grabbed Gu Zhiyi's wrist and pulled hard. Gu Zhiyi, in pain, was pulled even closer to Su Jinyue by the force of the pull.
"Miss Gu, are you getting angry and embarrassed? You're resorting to violence when threats fail?"
Miss Gu, let me give you a piece of advice: Fu Cinian is not someone to be trifled with, and I am even less so.
"Aren't you afraid that I can whisper in Fu Cinian's ear and make him turn against the Gu family?"
Gu Zhiyi looked at Su Jinyue, who was threatening her, in disbelief. She forced herself to retort, "No, Brother Fu..."
Gu Zhiyi instinctively wanted to call him Brother Fu again, but when Su Jinyue looked at her coldly, she automatically shut up.
However, when she realized that she had just been afraid of Su Jinyue, she still spoke up defiantly. Although she had changed how she addressed Fu Cinian, it did not mean that she had given in to Su Jinyue.
"Fu, Fu Cinian won't listen to you! He and my brother are good friends, he won't turn against my family!"
Su Jinyue smiled enigmatically: "You can keep trying and see if I'm more important to Fu Cinian, or your brother is more important."
Actually, I don't know who is more important to Fu Cinian. I'm also very interested in the answer to this question. Anyway, the stakes are Gu family businesses, so it won't hurt me at all.
So, Miss Gu, are you willing to make a bet with me?
……
Su Jinyue didn't get a reply from Gu Zhiyi. Gu Zhiyi shook off Su Jinyue's hand and ran away.
Su Jinyue clapped her hands and shrugged in boredom. How boring. A joke scared Gu Zhiyi away. Gu Zhiyi was quite arrogant before. How come she suddenly became cowardly?
If Gu Zhiyi knew what Su Jinyue was thinking, she would definitely cry out that she was innocent.
What family would risk their entire clan for a man?
Although Gu Zhiyi is the daughter of the Gu family, she is like most young ladies from wealthy families, treated as a tool for arranged marriages and raised in an ivory tower.
She mostly interacted with her girlfriends at banquets, teasing people she didn't like. Unlike Su Jinyue, who went all out from the start and threatened people with the entire Gu family.
After interacting with Su Jinyue today, Gu Zhiyi felt that Su Jinyue was really difficult to deal with, and it was best not to provoke her for the time being...
Having scared Gu Zhiyi away, Su Jinyue planned to return to the private room.
The corridor on this floor is shaped like a U-shape, and the private rooms and restrooms are located diagonally opposite each other.
As Su Jinyue walked back, she didn't notice the person coming from the opposite direction when she turned the corner and almost bumped into them.
"Mr. Xia, you're in room 808 on the 8th floor, right? I'll be there right away, right away... Oh dear..."
The other party was on the phone and was probably focused on the call, so they didn't notice Su Jinyue on the other end.
"I'm sorry," Su Jinyue apologized politely, admitting that she had bumped into someone and that it was partly due to her own carelessness.
Li Ying brought her artists to meet the investors. This investor was no ordinary person; he had a big-budget production in pre-production.
She had to beg and plead to get this opportunity.
Before coming, she had repeatedly instructed the artists she brought to be obedient during meetings with investors, and to be aware of any requests the investors might have.
As long as it's not too outrageous, you should try your best to endure it. The opportunity is rare. Once you become famous, you'll have everything you need, and you can give up everything else.
Li Ying arrived in a hurry because of traffic. The club was so high-end that she wouldn't have been able to get in if the investor hadn't made prior arrangements with the staff at the entrance.
After entering, Li Ying still had to call the investor to explain, to prevent the other party from getting impatient. She never expected that she would bump into someone at such a coincidence at the corner.
Fortunately, President Xia had already hung up the phone and didn't hear what was happening on her end.
Li Ying thought she should exchange a few polite words with the person she bumped into. She had never been to such a high-class club before, so she decided it was best not to get into a conflict with anyone else.
However, when Li Ying looked up at the opposite side, she was surprised to find that the person opposite her was actually Su Jinyue!
"Su Jinyue, it's you! What are you doing here?!" Li Ying was very surprised.
Su Jinyue looked up, surprised to find herself here with her former manager from her previous life, Li Ying.
Su Jinyue glanced at Li Ying, her eyes sweeping over the exquisitely dressed, handsome men and women following behind Li Ying. She already knew Li Ying's purpose in coming here.
Li Ying is ostensibly an agent, but in reality, she's just a pimp.
Presumably, the purpose is the same this time!
A hint of disgust flashed in Su Jinyue's eyes; she had no desire to speak to the other person.
Anyway, she never signed a contract to sell herself to Li Ying in this lifetime, so she never had to be controlled by anyone.
Su Jinyue nodded indifferently, giving an irrelevant answer: "Sorry, I have other things to do, so I won't bother you any longer."
