"It's not like that."
Zhu Yu learnt how to sell things on the spot, and also used the words that Lee Qingdong had just said to answer his questions.
Her perfunctory reply was obviously infuriating.
"Heh, can't you even be bothered to make up a single reason? It was your sister's birthday before, so it shouldn't be her birthday today. What other excuse do you have? "
Lee Qingdong asked.
"You know my sister's birthday? "You actually went behind my back to investigate their private lives?"
Zhu Yu looked at him in shock.
Before this, she had never thought of such a possibility. It was that after Lee Qingdong gave her the money, she would ask about the situation of Zhu Family.
She thought that a busybody like him would not care about such trivial matters.
"Do you still need me to investigate? If it were not for me, the relatives would have uploaded the photos to the internet to show the relationship between your family and Lu Haorann. "
Lee Qingdong reached out a hand and propped Zhu Yu's chin with her finger tip to scratch it, as if she was playing with a dog.
She stepped away from his hand, startled and frightened. "What did you say?"
"If you don't want to offend Lu Zhiqing, then leave your studies behind. If you really want to force your way out of this situation, you'll have to see if you have the ability to do so. "
Lee Qingdong suddenly approached Zhu Yu and whispered into her ear. "Zhu Yu, you've offended me again, so you must pay the price."
She suddenly shivered, feeling as if she had fallen into an icehouse.
When Zhu Yu reacted, Lee Qingdong was already dressed, and directly left.
She stared blankly at the fragments on the ground, as well as the bunch of keys that he had returned …
That night, the entertainment circle that had been silent for a few days exploded once more without any forewarning —
Jing Yuann played at the most famous bar in Yuncheng with a group of friends. Her boyfriend Lee Qingdong was surprisingly among them, and the two of them played with each other the whole time, envious of the other.
According to the group of photos taken by the passersby, they would talk to each other face to face from time to time. Jing Yuann was in an extremely good mood, even if she found out that she was being photographed, she wasn't angry.
Once the photo was out, Jing Yuann went on the search.
Zhu Yu looked at her phone, the side of her face could be said to be perfect, even though she was being illuminated a little blurry, she was still not picky.
However, at this moment, that face was so unfamiliar that she almost couldn't recognize it.
Ye Zichen's phone vibrated, and a WeChat message came in.
She clicked on the familiar avatar and saw the words on the screen. She could not help but let out a bitter laugh. "A jet-lag party actually pays so much attention to the domestic entertainment industry!"
Zhu Yu then sent over a video. In less than two seconds, the other party had already picked up.
The first thing that came into his view was a pair of huge spectacles, as well as a bald forehead. Even his bangs were pinned up by a hairpin.
The next second, a woman's face appeared.
"Writing another paper? "It's too hard, the dark circles under your eyes are so obvious."
Zhu Yu said with pain in her heart.
"Wow, I forgot to put on a beautiful face!"
He pressed something down and his skin immediately became three degrees paler. His face immediately became smaller, but his eyes became twice as big.
Zhu Yu evaluated objectively: "Excessive beauty, it's kind of scary."
"Aiya, forget it. You've never seen what I look like before!"
The woman mumbled something and returned to her original appearance.
"If you want to tell me about Lee Qingdong, then don't mention it and properly write your thesis."
Zhu Yu spoke first.
She had only told one person, and that was her best friend, Bai Jinglu.
After graduating from university, Bai Jinglu went abroad to study because her parents didn't like the way she studied. Her family had already cut off her allowance and wanted to force her to compromise.
In the end, she managed to endure it.
Knowing that Zhu Yu wanted to sell herself to a man, Bai Jinglu strongly opposed it. She even rushed back to stop her himself.
It was a pity that Zhu Yu refused to change her decision no matter what, and even more so forbade her from delaying her studies because of her.
"Just now when I posted on Weibo, I saw a picture of him and Jing Yuann …"
While talking, Bai Jinglu's voice became softer and softer, as if she was feeling sad for Zhu Yu.
"Are you crazy? Who am I, and what do you have against me? Oh yeah, if my mom brought Zhu Jin out of the country, why wouldn't I know anything?
Zhu Yu changed the topic, obviously not wanting to say much.
"Leave it to me."
Bai Jinglu patted her chest and agreed.
The two of them chatted for a while longer. Bai Jinglu hurried to the library to search for information, and hung up the video call.
Zhu Yu held the phone and sighed.
Back then, she and Bai Jinglu shared a bed in the same dorm. One was a bookworm, the other was a scum.
Afterwards, Bai Jinglu, who was still a student, worked hard for a year and taught herself together with Zhu Yu every day.
On the day they left, Zhu Yu was the only one to send her off. The two girls were crying at the airport, attracting others' attention.
Unexpectedly, so much time had passed in a flash.
However, fortunately, Bai Jinglu was able to interrupt him. Zhu Yu suddenly realized that her mood wasn't as downcast as before.
In any case, with Lee Qingdong here, even if those reporters couldn't penetrate through, they wouldn't dare to find trouble with her.
Before going to bed, my colleague sent me the latest news.
The fat woman and the curly haired woman who were beaten up because of the cabbages had already been reconciled. The two of them went to the television station together and wanted to apologize to Zhu Yu personally, but they just didn't see her.
Not only that, this episode had also caused quite a bit of a reaction.
The title was in Zhu Yu's mind, saying "Did your mother call you to buy cabbages?".
The program had only been broadcast for two days before it was edited into a comical video by the netizens and posted online.
Young people rarely watch this type of mother and mother-in-law program, and do not understand the habit of old people hoarding vegetables in large quantities every winter.
After they finished reading, they left messages and began to passionately discuss amongst themselves.
Through the continuous catalysis and fermentation on the internet, no one would have thought that a local program without any name or breath would suddenly enter the eyes of the netizens.
When Zhu Yu had almost fully recovered, on the first day she went back to work, the content director even called her over.
"Zhu Yu, your idea is not bad. You have to continue."
Initially, she thought she had transferred a hot potato from the News Center. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yu had produced a huge sum of money after just a few episodes.
Zhu Yu was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, and only dared to nod her head, not daring to speak.
The viewership ratings were right there, and the attitudes of his colleagues seemed to have changed quite a bit. When they spoke to Zhu Yu, they were all very polite.
All at once, she was back to the way she had been when she graduated, and she was full of energy.
After half a month, Lee Qingdong seemed to have completely disappeared from Zhu Yu's life.
Money, call her account on time, not one minute more, not one minute less.
Zhu Yu did not go back to his apartment again, but she still remembered her promise to visit Ye Mengyun three times a week to read her poems.
"Will Mrs Lee wake up in the future?"
Putting away the book of poems, Zhu Yu couldn't help but ask the nurse about it.
She had been here so many times, yet Ye Mengyun's situation did not seem to have progressed at all.
