Teddy's Counterattack Guide [Rebirth]
Chapter 81 [Choice]
After six o'clock in the evening, the autumn rain that lasted the whole afternoon stopped.
Taking advantage of the nightfall, Lu Yan, accompanied by a female assistant and several bodyguards, left the hotel building through the side door and hurried into the car.Lu Yunhuan stood beside the car, held up a black long-handled umbrella, passed a thick wool shawl in from the window, and signaled Lu Yan to cover his body to keep warm.
"You don't have to worry about the matter here, I will handle it." Lu Yunhuan said.
Lu Yan's mental state was not very good, and he couldn't relax all the time. Hearing this, he seemed to come back to his senses and asked, "Will the movie launch be affected?"
"I'm not sure about this, but I will definitely watch the TV as usual tomorrow, but I won't be filming Gu Jinglin's scenes for the time being." Lu Yunhuan lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said lightly, "This is the way this circle is. The topic, no matter how much the navy sunspots toss about it, it’s okay, I’m afraid that the official ban will be broadcast.”
Lu Yan nodded slowly: "I understand."
Lu Yunhuan looked down at Lu Yan's face, remained silent for a while, and comforted him: "Don't worry too much about it, it's just a movie, now the whole group belongs to you, for Gu Jinglin, there will be many good opportunities in the future yes."
When he finished speaking, Lu Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned his head to meet Lu Yunhuan's eyes, and said lightly: "The truth is indeed the truth, but considering the person who created this scandal, I'm afraid I can't be too optimistic about whether there will be a future." , what do you think, second brother?"
Lu Yunhuan fell silent when he heard the words.
When he said these words, Lu Yan's voice was soft and soft, and the smile in his eyes was just right, as calm as if nothing had happened.But Lu Yunhuan knew that he had big ideas in his heart, and with the lessons learned from the past, even though his third brother hadn't expressed anything, he was stunned by that harmless smile that sent a chill down his spine.
Right now, Wang Yuanyuan and the driver are still sitting in the car, and there are outsiders present, so it is impossible to say some things too bluntly.
Lu Yunhuan was suddenly very worried, so he let Lu Yan go alone. After a few seconds of silence, he hesitated and said, "What... are you thinking?"
"It's nothing," Lu Yan said with a smile, "This matter involves me, and it's not convenient for me to come forward to clarify it for the time being, so I can only trouble my second brother first."
Lu Yunhuan frowned slightly, feeling that the words were vague, which was more frightening than directly stating the purpose, so he couldn't help telling: "No matter what, you go home and wait, if there is any change, I will notify you as soon as possible. You. In short, don’t believe any comments on the Internet, it’s best not to even read them. I’ll find you the day after tomorrow at the latest.”
"Okay." Lu Yan agreed, "Don't work too hard."
Lu Yunhuan nodded, still thinking about what to say, but Lu Yan had already sat upright and raised the rear window.Lu Yunhuan had no choice but to take two steps back, and raised his hand to signal to Wang Yuanyuan that he could leave.
Then the engine sounded, the tires rolled up the water on the ground, and the two red taillights slowly disappeared into the endless night in the thicker and thicker damp fog.
The night in the suburbs is very quiet, and the entire resort is silent.
Lu Yan took out a peaked cap and sunglasses from the storage compartment under the seat and put them on, and made the shawl that Lu Yunhuan sent over a little higher.
Wang Yuanyuan looked at him from the rearview mirror and said in surprise, "Mr. Lu, isn't it?"
"Just in case." Lu Yan's tone was very light. After finishing speaking, he was silent for a while, and then changed his words again, "Actually, it's useless. Even if only the car is photographed, a caring person can compile a long Weibo. This thing is simply impossible to guard against.”
"I don't know who is deliberately slandering, but it is too much to say that you have that kind of relationship with Mr. Gu!" Wang Yuanyuan said.
Lu Yan was startled when he heard that, and after a few seconds, he followed her intention and said softly: "Yes."
Wang Yuanyuan heard the tone was wrong, looked back, and found that Lu Yan closed his eyes, looking tired.She hurriedly told the driver to drive the car steadily, and then turned up the temperature of the air conditioner herself.
After finishing all this, while Lu Yan was still asleep, she asked, "Boss Lu, where are you going?"
Lu Yan wanted to review Jing Lin's apartment, but it was obviously inappropriate now. This car drove out of the resort, and there might be many paparazzi behind it who were waiting to grab the headlines.
what a hassle...
Lu Yan felt a headache, thought for a while, and said, "Go back to Xishan Villa."
"Ah?" Wang Yuanyuan hesitated, "Mr. Lu, the renovation has just been completed over there, and the servants are not worthy of anything. If you go over now...you will be alone."
"It's okay." Lu Yan said, "Just let me be quiet."
It is a long way from here to Xishan Villa, and most of them are mountain roads. It has just rained and the winding mountain road is wet and slippery, so the car cannot drive fast.
Lu Yan plugged in his earphones, and the playlist looped very coincidentally. It happened to be the German song that was played on the car CD when he and Gu Jinglin were on their way to the Central Hospital not long after they met.
——【You are a rainstorm, I cry because of you. 】
For a moment, Lu Yan seemed to have swallowed an astringent fruit, and felt very uncomfortable.
From the beginning, regardless of the relationship between the two, he tried his best to avoid affecting Gu Jinglin's life.But now, the last thing he wanted to see happened, and it happened unexpectedly, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Gossip can kill a person, let alone a highly anticipated entertainer!
Lu Yan knew in his heart that with Gu Jinglin's personality, it was absolutely impossible for him to publicly clarify his sexual orientation, and it was even more impossible for him to cover up this matter by spreading rumors with a certain female star.He said that he doesn't care about Xiying's withdrawal from the circle, and when that day really comes, he will definitely not have any hesitation.
But...is it worth it?
If they had never had an intersection, there was no need for him to fall victim to the competition of commercial interests for an irrelevant person.
There is indeed someone who should be out, but in any case it shouldn't be Gu Jinglin...
Two hours later, Lincoln stopped in front of the wrought iron gate of Xishan Villa.
Wang Yuanyuan opened the door and got out of the car, looked at the dark villa not far away, then turned around, opened the door for Lu Yan, and said: "Mr. Lu, it's too dark, I'd better take you back to the set in the city center." An apartment, it’s safer.”
"No need." Lu Yan wrapped his cloak tightly and ordered, "Help me take off my luggage. It's getting late, and you should go home and rest as soon as possible. If I have something to go out tomorrow, I will call you, but I can't answer the phone Just treat it as a vacation."
Wang Yuanyuan couldn't persuade him, so he had to follow his advice.
It has not been two months since this villa was transferred to Lu Yan's name. During this period, the whole house was renovated, and all the previous decorations were replaced. Even the vegetation and stone pavement in the front and back gardens were all replaced with new ones.But there was one place that Lu Yan didn't let go, and that was the study room on the second floor of the villa.
Wang Yuanyuan carried the luggage to the master bedroom on the third floor, and then helped to turn on the main switch and various branch circuits.
The kitchen was completely empty, and it was impossible to make dinner. Wang Yuanyuan searched around and found nothing, so she could only add water to the water dispenser, and used the tea bags in the car to make a pot of black tea for Lu Yan.
After she left, Lu Yan simply took a shower, changed into his home clothes, and then sat on the armrest of the study, flipping through the reading notes left by Lu Chengrui while warming his hands with a cup of hot tea.
On the footer of a certain page, the man wrote a sentence that had nothing to do with the book he read that day. The content was [Yanyan's physical examination report: eight years old, height 116, weight 40, too thin. 】Lu Yan stared at those few lines of small words, and was a little dazed until the mobile phone placed next to him vibrated, then he hurriedly closed the notebook, took the mobile phone, and was stunned after seeing the caller's name clearly. Then hastily connected.But he put the phone to his ear, and he didn't know what to say.
On the other side of the phone, Gu Jinglin took a puff of cigarette and said, "It's so late, you won't call or go home, do you want me to worry?"
The man's deep and slow voice carried a smile, and it was transmitted by thousands of electric currents, penetrating into the deepest part of the heart every word.Lu Yan suddenly relaxed, a little bit want to laugh, but also a little bit want to cry.He could imagine Gu Jinglin's appearance at the moment, down to the curve of his mouth and the look in his eyes.They are separated by a phone call, but they have a tacit understanding close at hand.
"Wronged?" Gu Jinglin asked, "Is it because Xi Chen told you to keep a distance from me, that's why you played missing?"
"No." Lu Yan couldn't help laughing, "I think what Mr. Xi said makes sense, so I listened."
Gu Jinglin: "What did he say?"
Lu Yan: "I said that we should keep a proper distance now. I have no experience in dealing with this kind of thing, but I can think that Yuji has been watching closely recently. After returning from the resort, I haven't returned to your apartment or called you. Save yourself the trouble of coming and looking for me."
"Where is the person?" Gu Jinglin asked.
"Can I not say it?" Lu Yan said.
"Of course not," Gu Jinglin said, "I'm already out."
The voice fell, and there was a "bang" sound from the receiver.
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan was in a bad mood, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't make trouble, I will definitely go back in two days, be good, be obedient!"
"Okay, stop making trouble." Gu Jinglin said softly, "Tell me where you are, be good, be obedient."
Lu Yan: "..."
Gu Jinglin: "If you don't say anything, I can only drive around on the road."
Lu Yan raised his forehead, knowing that this guy's waywardness was terrifying, so he had to take a step back and persuaded: "When I came back from there, I deliberately didn't shake off Yuji, they must know where I am, it's too obvious that you are coming now, at most In an hour, the headlines will be updated."
Gu Jinglin frowned: "What are you afraid of, let them take the picture."
Lu Yan was going crazy: "You will be blocked, don't you know?!"
"Then seal it." Gu Jinglin's voice sank.
"But—!" Lu Yan wanted to say more, but was interrupted directly by the other party.
"Yanyan, listen to me." Gu Jinglin said calmly, "People in the entertainment industry only have this weakness, fear of public opinion, fear of being blocked, fear of bad reputation, fear of no future, so live carefully, like walking on thin ice , but this life is purely for others, for those who may say something to you."
"—Do you think it's worth it?"
Lu Yan was stunned.
"I don't think it's worth it." Gu Jinglin said, "I'm not a person who has to live in the entertainment industry. An artist is just a status to me. I know it's irresponsible to say this. Indeed, I have been in the industry for many years. It's not bad, there are many people who like me, but have you ever thought that those who really like me don't care about my sexual orientation, so who do I have to clarify? Who am I pleasing?"
"Those who follow the trend to blackmail me and clamor for an explanation, they will not stop slandering me just because I clarify that I am heterosexual, because that kind of people don't need a reason for their hate, they just seized an outlet to vent Whether artists cater to or not can only change the angle of their abuse, but it will not end the abuse. This is the entertainment industry, and it is low-cost cyber violence."
After saying this, the two fell silent at the same time.
Lu Yan leaned on the back of the chair, lowered his eyelashes, and slightly fluttered his pale lips.
Through the receiver, Gu Jinglin noticed his strangeness, and his voice softened again, coaxing: "My husband is wrong, why are you still crying?"
"You're right." Lu Yan forced himself to calm down, and trembled, "I understand the truth, but I just can't see you being slandered by anyone, let alone this matter is aimed at me..."
"I know." Gu Jinglin said, "This is another reason."
Lu Yan didn't react for a while, and subconsciously asked: "What is another reason?"
Gu Jinglin: "If the identity of an artist will become a reason for others to threaten you, then the best way is for me to voluntarily give up this identity."
Hearing this, Lu Yan's eyes instantly became wet, and he quickly covered his mouth and nose, so as not to be heard by the other party.
Gu Jinglin's mentality is much better than his, at least that's what he showed. He noticed that there was still sobbing in the receiver, and he couldn't help but play it up: "But before I lose my job, I still have to ask in advance, Mr. Lu, what did you say earlier? Saying that the family needs someone who will raise flowers and dogs for you, and who will hug you and sleep with you, is this still counting?"
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan laughed angrily at him: "Rogue, I obviously didn't say the last half of the sentence."
"All of you who are presidents have this problem?" Gu Jinglin smiled and said, "I have slept so many times, and I still want to return it?"
Lu Yan felt very familiar when he heard this, and knew that it was to make him happy.After this conversation, he really relaxed a lot, but as long as he thought of the sacrifice Gu Jinglin made, Lu Yan would still feel guilty.
"Seriously," Lu Yan calmed down, and said seriously, "What are your plans?"
Gu Jinglin thought for a moment, and said: "I don't want to hold a special formal press conference. I plan to ask Xi Chen to draft a statement and send it out as soon as possible, and then I won't care about the affairs in the circle anymore."
Lu Yan: "Isn't it too hasty?"
"It's a bit sloppy, and you will lose." Gu Jinglin said frankly, "Because I am a signed artist of Donghuang, this time the film's role was changed due to my own reasons, and it will definitely affect the shooting cycle, so I'm afraid I need you. While bearing part of the financial compensation, the reputation is not good, and it may also affect the movie box office."
"It doesn't matter." Lu Yan said, "But I still hope you can wait a little longer. I want to see the situation in the next two days before making a decision."
"Okay, listen to you." Gu Jinglin said, "Now it's time to tell where you are. It's late at night, and I don't worry if I can't see you."
Lu Yan couldn't hold back him, so he had to say it.Gu Jinglin was quite surprised that he returned to Xishan Villa. After all, there is no place with any good memories. Although it was distributed to Lu Yan in accordance with the will, it is reasonable to say that he will never go back for the rest of his life.
At nine o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the main door of the villa.
Lu Yan had been waiting in the living room, and when he saw someone coming, he hurried over to open the door.
It was raining again outside, Gu Jinglin's coat was wet, and there was a thin layer of water droplets hanging on the tips of his hair.Lu Yan prepared bath towels and hot water. He was supposed to dry him off before letting him take a bath to drive away the cold, but before he could say anything, the other party picked him up, took him back to the bedroom, and fell asleep.
A villa in the suburbs, away from the annoyance of trivial matters, and the two of them have something on their minds, so it is inevitable that they do it with a sense of venting, and they have tossed and tossed all night.When Lu Yan was so tired that he was about to pass out, Gu Jinglin took him to the bathroom to clean himself up, and then changed to another room and fell asleep in a hurry.
In the afternoon of the next day, when Lu Yan woke up, his whole body was in pain like it was falling apart. The back was smeared with medicine, but he still felt bloated.The seat next to it is already empty, and I don't know when Gu Jinglin woke up. Lu Yan was a little depressed, and pressed his forehead to calm himself down. When he regained consciousness, he propped himself up and leaned against the head of the bed, touched the phone, and pressed the button. Turn on the screen and see that there are several missed calls and unread messages.
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan didn't expect that Lu Yunhuan would be able to find him today, and immediately his heart sank, thinking that nothing would happen, right?
He hurriedly unlocked his phone and clicked on the SMS app, and the unread messages were——
Lu Yunhuan: [Why didn't you answer the phone?Are you okay? 】
Lu Yunhuan: [You can open a social platform or portal to read Jinglin's news. ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Sister-in-law~ I’ll go home for dinner tonight, I told my brother, but I’m afraid he will pretend he didn’t see it, so I’ll report it to you again. PS: Don’t be late, the old man doesn’t like a daughter-in-law who has no sense of time, dresses exaggeratedly, sprays perfume indiscriminately, and is a coquettish bitch, but he likes a daughter-in-law who can drink!Brother-in-law can only help here, sister-in-law, come on~(≧▽≦)/~] Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan looked puzzled, but what the second brother said was obviously more important, so he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly returned the text message and clicked on Weibo.
In fact, Lu Yan felt a little conflicted. When he was still in the resort yesterday afternoon, he couldn’t help swiping it. At that time, the revelations about “Gu Jinglin’s sexual orientation” had already been escalated. All related topics became popular. Several marketing accounts simultaneously The article, roughly covering the various time periods from his debut to the present, spread rumors that Gu Jinglin relied on the improper relationship with the third young master of the Lu family from the very beginning to rise to power. .
As soon as this kind of remarks came out, apart from the sunspots following suit, even Gu Jinglin's fans began to scold Lu Yan for being rich and powerful, and for being indiscreet. If he didn't come out, he would forcibly spread rumors that he supported other artists, trying to transfer all the black spots to Lu Yan.It was the first time in Lu Yanping's life that he was labeled as such unnecessarily, and his remarks were extremely vicious, so he pretended not to see it in the end, so as not to be disgusted by others.
Before opening Weibo, Lu Yan had already made the worst mental preparations, but was surprised to find that the popular recommendations were quiet. Lu Yan tried to search for a few keywords, but there was no relevant blog post. The hired marketing account was also officially canceled.
This can be regarded as the simplest and crudest way to resolve the scandal, which is to kill the source and intercept all possible channels of transmission.However, the requirements for the operator are very high. First, they must have the ability to affect various platforms, and second, they must be fully prepared for the aftermath. Otherwise, the practice of deleting speeches without distinction for no reason will also cause dissatisfaction among netizens.
Who could have done it?Second brother?
No, before clarifying Gu Jinglin's attitude, it is impossible for Lu Yunhuan to do everything, otherwise it will be very difficult to end, and Gu Jinglin promised him to wait two more days, so that he would not reply to Lu Yunhuan so early.
Lu Yan went through all the people he could think of, and finally clicked on the text message sent by Gu Yuanzhou. After thinking about it, he replied: [Jing Lin's scandal, you handled it? ] Within a few minutes, the interface displayed the icon that the other party was inputting. Gu Yuanzhou said: [The old man didn’t know who heard about this last night. He almost had a heart attack when he saw the remarks. I went out to get things done... Your brother-in-law is tired and needs a kiss from his sister-in-law to wake up_(:з」∠)_] Lu Yan: […]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don’t let my brother see it, or you will lose your cute brother-in-law_(:з」∠)_] Lu Yan: [Thank you...but we still need to give an explanation to the public opinion, uncle has ideas up? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Can you tell me this?I guess I'll talk to you at night, and it looks like I'll talk to you. ] Lu Yan: [What does he generally think of your brother's boyfriend? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Killed→_→]
Lu Yan: […]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Don't be afraid, although I dare not protect you, I can call you my brother for you. ] Lu Yan: [...Thank you. 】
Gu Yuanzhou: 【Actually, our old man is easy to get along with in other respects except that he has a bad temper, a little stubborn personality, and he keeps his word. ] Lu Yan was speechless: [Does Uncle know what you say? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don't let my dad see it, or you will lose your lovely brother-in-law_(:з"∠)_] Lu Yan: [You just copied it?What about sincerity? 】
Gu Yuanzhou: [I'm driving, it's inconvenient to type, sister-in-law, please forgive me~] Lu Yan: [Oh, then drive, don't post, pay attention to safety. ] Gu Yuanzhou: [It's almost there, wait for me~]
Lu Yan: [waiting for you? ? ? 】
Gu Yuanzhou: [Yes, I will pick you up.The old man said, if you don't get a pair, you will be dealt with by military law. ] Lu Yan: [……]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Remember to dress nicely~]
Lu Yan: [Isn't uncle not fond of coquettish daughters-in-law? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [I like it! 】
Lu Yan: [You just said that you can't receive us, what's the matter? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don't play missing, or you will lose your lovely brother-in-law_(:з」∠)_]
Taking advantage of the nightfall, Lu Yan, accompanied by a female assistant and several bodyguards, left the hotel building through the side door and hurried into the car.Lu Yunhuan stood beside the car, held up a black long-handled umbrella, passed a thick wool shawl in from the window, and signaled Lu Yan to cover his body to keep warm.

The topic, no matter how much the navy sunspots toss about it, it’s okay, I’m afraid that the official ban will be broadcast.”
Lu Yan nodded slowly: "I understand."
Lu Yunhuan looked down at Lu Yan's face, remained silent for a while, and comforted him: "Don't worry too much about it, it's just a movie, now the whole group belongs to you, for Gu Jinglin, there will be many good opportunities in the future yes."
When he finished speaking, Lu Yan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned his head to meet Lu Yunhuan's eyes, and said lightly: "The truth is indeed the truth, but considering the person who created this scandal, I'm afraid I can't be too optimistic about whether there will be a future." , what do you think, second brother?"
Lu Yunhuan fell silent when he heard the words.

You. In short, don’t believe any comments on the Internet, it’s best not to even read them. I’ll find you the day after tomorrow at the latest.”
"Okay." Lu Yan agreed, "Don't work too hard."
Lu Yunhuan nodded, still thinking about what to say, but Lu Yan had already sat upright and raised the rear window.Lu Yunhuan had no choice but to take two steps back, and raised his hand to signal to Wang Yuanyuan that he could leave.
Then the engine sounded, the tires rolled up the water on the ground, and the two red taillights slowly disappeared into the endless night in the thicker and thicker damp fog.
The night in the suburbs is very quiet, and the entire resort is silent.
Lu Yan took out a peaked cap and sunglasses from the storage compartment under the seat and put them on, and made the shawl that Lu Yunhuan sent over a little higher.
Wang Yuanyuan looked at him from the rearview mirror and said in surprise, "Mr. Lu, isn't it?"

"Can I not say it?" Lu Yan said.
"Of course not," Gu Jinglin said, "I'm already out."
The voice fell, and there was a "bang" sound from the receiver.
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan was in a bad mood, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't make trouble, I will definitely go back in two days, be good, be obedient!"
"Okay, stop making trouble." Gu Jinglin said softly, "Tell me where you are, be good, be obedient."
Lu Yan: "..."
Gu Jinglin: "If you don't say anything, I can only drive around on the road."
Lu Yan raised his forehead, knowing that this guy's waywardness was terrifying, so he had to take a step back and persuaded: "When I came back from there, I deliberately didn't shake off Yuji, they must know where I am, it's too obvious that you are coming now, at most In an hour, the headlines will be updated."
Gu Jinglin frowned: "What are you afraid of, let them take the picture."
Lu Yan was going crazy: "You will be blocked, don't you know?!"
"Then seal it." Gu Jinglin's voice sank.
"But—!" Lu Yan wanted to say more, but was interrupted directly by the other party.
"Yanyan, listen to me." Gu Jinglin said calmly, "People in the entertainment industry only have this weakness, fear of public opinion, fear of being blocked, fear of bad reputation, fear of no future, so live carefully, like walking on thin ice , but this life is purely for others, for those who may say something to you."
"—Do you think it's worth it?"
Lu Yan was stunned.
"I don't think it's worth it." Gu Jinglin said, "I'm not a person who has to live in the entertainment industry. An artist is just a status to me. I know it's irresponsible to say this. Indeed, I have been in the industry for many years. It's not bad, there are many people who like me, but have you ever thought that those who really like me don't care about my sexual orientation, so who do I have to clarify? Who am I pleasing?"
"Those who follow the trend to blackmail me and clamor for an explanation, they will not stop slandering me just because I clarify that I am heterosexual, because that kind of people don't need a reason for their hate, they just seized an outlet to vent Whether artists cater to or not can only change the angle of their abuse, but it will not end the abuse. This is the entertainment industry, and it is low-cost cyber violence."
After saying this, the two fell silent at the same time.
Lu Yan leaned on the back of the chair, lowered his eyelashes, and slightly fluttered his pale lips.
Through the receiver, Gu Jinglin noticed his strangeness, and his voice softened again, coaxing: "My husband is wrong, why are you still crying?"
"You're right." Lu Yan forced himself to calm down, and trembled, "I understand the truth, but I just can't see you being slandered by anyone, let alone this matter is aimed at me..."
"I know." Gu Jinglin said, "This is another reason."
Lu Yan didn't react for a while, and subconsciously asked: "What is another reason?"
Gu Jinglin: "If the identity of an artist will become a reason for others to threaten you, then the best way is for me to voluntarily give up this identity."
Hearing this, Lu Yan's eyes instantly became wet, and he quickly covered his mouth and nose, so as not to be heard by the other party.
Gu Jinglin's mentality is much better than his, at least that's what he showed. He noticed that there was still sobbing in the receiver, and he couldn't help but play it up: "But before I lose my job, I still have to ask in advance, Mr. Lu, what did you say earlier? Saying that the family needs someone who will raise flowers and dogs for you, and who will hug you and sleep with you, is this still counting?"
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan laughed angrily at him: "Rogue, I obviously didn't say the last half of the sentence."
"All of you who are presidents have this problem?" Gu Jinglin smiled and said, "I have slept so many times, and I still want to return it?"
Lu Yan felt very familiar when he heard this, and knew that it was to make him happy.After this conversation, he really relaxed a lot, but as long as he thought of the sacrifice Gu Jinglin made, Lu Yan would still feel guilty.
"Seriously," Lu Yan calmed down, and said seriously, "What are your plans?"
Gu Jinglin thought for a moment, and said: "I don't want to hold a special formal press conference. I plan to ask Xi Chen to draft a statement and send it out as soon as possible, and then I won't care about the affairs in the circle anymore."
Lu Yan: "Isn't it too hasty?"
"It's a bit sloppy, and you will lose." Gu Jinglin said frankly, "Because I am a signed artist of Donghuang, this time the film's role was changed due to my own reasons, and it will definitely affect the shooting cycle, so I'm afraid I need you. While bearing part of the financial compensation, the reputation is not good, and it may also affect the movie box office."
"It doesn't matter." Lu Yan said, "But I still hope you can wait a little longer. I want to see the situation in the next two days before making a decision."
"Okay, listen to you." Gu Jinglin said, "Now it's time to tell where you are. It's late at night, and I don't worry if I can't see you."
Lu Yan couldn't hold back him, so he had to say it.Gu Jinglin was quite surprised that he returned to Xishan Villa. After all, there is no place with any good memories. Although it was distributed to Lu Yan in accordance with the will, it is reasonable to say that he will never go back for the rest of his life.
At nine o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the main door of the villa.
Lu Yan had been waiting in the living room, and when he saw someone coming, he hurried over to open the door.
It was raining again outside, Gu Jinglin's coat was wet, and there was a thin layer of water droplets hanging on the tips of his hair.Lu Yan prepared bath towels and hot water. He was supposed to dry him off before letting him take a bath to drive away the cold, but before he could say anything, the other party picked him up, took him back to the bedroom, and fell asleep.
A villa in the suburbs, away from the annoyance of trivial matters, and the two of them have something on their minds, so it is inevitable that they do it with a sense of venting, and they have tossed and tossed all night.When Lu Yan was so tired that he was about to pass out, Gu Jinglin took him to the bathroom to clean himself up, and then changed to another room and fell asleep in a hurry.
In the afternoon of the next day, when Lu Yan woke up, his whole body was in pain like it was falling apart. The back was smeared with medicine, but he still felt bloated.The seat next to it is already empty, and I don't know when Gu Jinglin woke up. Lu Yan was a little depressed, and pressed his forehead to calm himself down. When he regained consciousness, he propped himself up and leaned against the head of the bed, touched the phone, and pressed the button. Turn on the screen and see that there are several missed calls and unread messages.
Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan didn't expect that Lu Yunhuan would be able to find him today, and immediately his heart sank, thinking that nothing would happen, right?
He hurriedly unlocked his phone and clicked on the SMS app, and the unread messages were——
Lu Yunhuan: [Why didn't you answer the phone?Are you okay? 】
Lu Yunhuan: [You can open a social platform or portal to read Jinglin's news. ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Sister-in-law~ I’ll go home for dinner tonight, I told my brother, but I’m afraid he will pretend he didn’t see it, so I’ll report it to you again. PS: Don’t be late, the old man doesn’t like a daughter-in-law who has no sense of time, dresses exaggeratedly, sprays perfume indiscriminately, and is a coquettish bitch, but he likes a daughter-in-law who can drink!Brother-in-law can only help here, sister-in-law, come on~(≧▽≦)/~] Lu Yan: "..."
Lu Yan looked puzzled, but what the second brother said was obviously more important, so he didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly returned the text message and clicked on Weibo.
In fact, Lu Yan felt a little conflicted. When he was still in the resort yesterday afternoon, he couldn’t help swiping it. At that time, the revelations about “Gu Jinglin’s sexual orientation” had already been escalated. All related topics became popular. Several marketing accounts simultaneously The article, roughly covering the various time periods from his debut to the present, spread rumors that Gu Jinglin relied on the improper relationship with the third young master of the Lu family from the very beginning to rise to power. .
As soon as this kind of remarks came out, apart from the sunspots following suit, even Gu Jinglin's fans began to scold Lu Yan for being rich and powerful, and for being indiscreet. If he didn't come out, he would forcibly spread rumors that he supported other artists, trying to transfer all the black spots to Lu Yan.It was the first time in Lu Yanping's life that he was labeled as such unnecessarily, and his remarks were extremely vicious, so he pretended not to see it in the end, so as not to be disgusted by others.
Before opening Weibo, Lu Yan had already made the worst mental preparations, but was surprised to find that the popular recommendations were quiet. Lu Yan tried to search for a few keywords, but there was no relevant blog post. The hired marketing account was also officially canceled.
This can be regarded as the simplest and crudest way to resolve the scandal, which is to kill the source and intercept all possible channels of transmission.However, the requirements for the operator are very high. First, they must have the ability to affect various platforms, and second, they must be fully prepared for the aftermath. Otherwise, the practice of deleting speeches without distinction for no reason will also cause dissatisfaction among netizens.
Who could have done it?Second brother?
No, before clarifying Gu Jinglin's attitude, it is impossible for Lu Yunhuan to do everything, otherwise it will be very difficult to end, and Gu Jinglin promised him to wait two more days, so that he would not reply to Lu Yunhuan so early.
Lu Yan went through all the people he could think of, and finally clicked on the text message sent by Gu Yuanzhou. After thinking about it, he replied: [Jing Lin's scandal, you handled it? ] Within a few minutes, the interface displayed the icon that the other party was inputting. Gu Yuanzhou said: [The old man didn’t know who heard about this last night. He almost had a heart attack when he saw the remarks. I went out to get things done... Your brother-in-law is tired and needs a kiss from his sister-in-law to wake up_(:з」∠)_] Lu Yan: […]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don’t let my brother see it, or you will lose your cute brother-in-law_(:з」∠)_] Lu Yan: [Thank you...but we still need to give an explanation to the public opinion, uncle has ideas up? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Can you tell me this?I guess I'll talk to you at night, and it looks like I'll talk to you. ] Lu Yan: [What does he generally think of your brother's boyfriend? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Killed→_→]
Lu Yan: […]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Don't be afraid, although I dare not protect you, I can call you my brother for you. ] Lu Yan: [...Thank you. 】
Gu Yuanzhou: 【Actually, our old man is easy to get along with in other respects except that he has a bad temper, a little stubborn personality, and he keeps his word. ] Lu Yan was speechless: [Does Uncle know what you say? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don't let my dad see it, or you will lose your lovely brother-in-law_(:з"∠)_] Lu Yan: [You just copied it?What about sincerity? 】
Gu Yuanzhou: [I'm driving, it's inconvenient to type, sister-in-law, please forgive me~] Lu Yan: [Oh, then drive, don't post, pay attention to safety. ] Gu Yuanzhou: [It's almost there, wait for me~]
Lu Yan: [waiting for you? ? ? 】
Gu Yuanzhou: [Yes, I will pick you up.The old man said, if you don't get a pair, you will be dealt with by military law. ] Lu Yan: [……]
Gu Yuanzhou: [Remember to dress nicely~]
Lu Yan: [Isn't uncle not fond of coquettish daughters-in-law? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [I like it! 】
Lu Yan: [You just said that you can't receive us, what's the matter? ] Gu Yuanzhou: [Just kidding, don't play missing, or you will lose your lovely brother-in-law_(:з」∠)_]
