Mengshen lowered his head sullenly. “They’re them, and I’m me.” Gu Ran glanced at him and shrugged, refusing to comment.
“Teacher Gu, I know that I’m not good enough now, but I’ll definitely work
hard. I’ll prove it to you.”
Gu Ran replied indifferently, “What you do has nothing to do with me.”
“Teacher Gu, are you close to the Movie King?”
“Not really.” Gu Ran walked into the elevator.
Mengshen frowned. “Not really? I don’t think so! I saw that he can even lend you his own lounge. You two must be very close, right?”
Gu Ran looked back at him and sneered. “What are you trying to imply! Are you trying to help your aunt?”
“No, no, no, that’s not what I meant.” Mengshen quickly waved his hand and explained, “Teacher Gu, I’m not suspecting you. It’s just that the Movie King is a playboy. He has many secret lovers in private. I’m just afraid that you’ll be deceived by him.”
“I appreciate your kind intentions. However, the Movie King and I have only recorded two episodes of the show, so we’re slightly more familiar with each other than strangers. We can’t even be considered friends. This time, borrowing his lounge was just an accident. You don’t have to be wary of a formidable enemy. Tell your aunt not to worry.”
Mengshen said awkwardly, “Actually, I really didn’t mean that. My aunt…’
At the door of the room, Gu Ran stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Mengshen, who was still following her. She emphasized again, “Don’t worry, I have no interest in being a third party. Previously, I thought that the Movie King was single, so I treated him as a friend. Now that it’s inconvenient for him, I naturally won’t cross the line. I’ll avoid such rumors from being created in the future. Are you satisfied now?”
Mengshen pursed his lips and explained, “Teacher Gu, I don’t have any ill intentions. It’s just that our engagement with the MO family was set very early on. Although my aunt is not in the country now, no one can change the marriage. When the time is right, they will naturally…”
“I don’t have any interest in your family���s affairs. All I know is that I’m very tired right now. I need to rest. Can you leave now?” At this point, Mengshen could not say anything else.
“Then, I won’t disturb you anymore. Teacher Gu, rest well.”
Gu Ran could not be bothered with him and opened the door to enter.
Mengshen stood at the door for a while. After much thought, he returned to his room to make a call.
“You finally remembered me. I thought that you were very determined and weren’t going to contact me for the rest of your life!” A lazy voice sounded from the other end of the line. The man even yawned lazily.
“Are you out of money? How much do you want?”
“Brother, something happened!” Mengshen quipped with a serious expression. “I bumped into Uncle today. Uncle MO was with him too, and I realized that he’s very special to a girl. He even lent her his lounge at the filming site.”
“What did you say!” The person on the other end of the line suddenly became sober and serious. “Did you see it with your own eyes? Who is that girl!”
MO Yancheng was famous for being cold and aloof. For so many years, other than filming, no woman had been able to approach him. Now, he was actually lending a woman his private lounge!
“Damn, I knew that his aloofness was just an illusion. He definitely wouldn’t be able to stand the loneliness and cheat on our aunt!”
Mengshen frowned. “Actually, you can’t say that. After all, Aunt has never been around, and Teacher Gu is so pretty..
“Rascal, whose side are you on! Why are you siding with outsiders!” The person on the other end of the line scolded Mengshen. In the end, he said, “Wait, you said that the woman’s surname is also Gu?”
“Yes, she has the same surname as us.” Gu Mengshen nodded. “I felt that we were fated to meet for the first time. Perhaps we were still the same family a hundred years ago!”
The other person pondered for a moment before slowly saying, “I remember that there’s a relative of our family in C City. Is she from their family?”
“No. I’ve asked around before. The head of the Gu family is called Gu Rongtian.
He has a daughter called Gu Yi. Her age doesn’t match Teacher Gu. They are not the same person.”
“Since it has nothing to do with our family, how dare she mess with us and snatch our aunt’s man? Does she really think our Gu family is a pushover?”
