In the end, Gu Lili bid farewell to Gu Xichen and the others, and followed Long Yubei to Qin Garden.
Chang Tai made her hangover soup.
After she drank it, she bandaged his wounds.
He kept his gaze fixed on her face the entire time.
"If you keep staring, you’ll burn a hole through my face."
"Lili, why are you so good-looking?"
Gu Lili thought back to the first time they met, when she seemed to have said the same thing.
"I’ve always been good-looking, it’s not like you only just found out today."
Long Yubei let out a muted chuckle, unable to resist and kissed her forehead.
Gu Lili glanced up and glared at him, "Can you not be so handsy?"
"Lili, I have something I want to tell you."
"If..." his deep eyes locked onto hers, "if that day on the peak of Purple Clouds Mountain it had been between me and your master, and you saved your master first, I wouldn’t blame you."
Gu Lili’s hand paused, then she said, "That’s because there’s no chance of that happening. After all, my master is no longer here. Would you still think the same if it really came down to that moment?"
"I would," Long Yubei continued, "because I know if you saved me first, you would spend the rest of your life consumed with deep guilt and self-reproach over your master."
Gu Lili fell silent, "I’ve finished bandaging you. I’m sobering up nicely now, so I’m going to leave."
"Why not stay? You can sleep in the guest room."
"No need, I’ll go back to my place."
Gu Lili stood up and left.
On her drive back, she thought carefully about Long Yubei’s words.
Actually, that Chapter had already turned with Long Yubei’s attempted suicide.
For her, it no longer mattered.
What was important now was the present and the future.
When new artists join the company, they usually introduce everyone around.
When President Su brought Ye Ying and Shi Xiaotian to Liang He’s office, he was somewhat surprised.
"Liangzi, you guys are now in the same company. This is Ye Ying, and Xiao Tian, you know, now she’s under her wing."
Liang He responded expressionlessly with a "Hmm, welcome."
"Liang He, I hope to have the chance to act with you in the future."
Liang He smiled mockingly, hitting hard, "That opportunity won’t arise."
President Su’s mouth twitched, "Okay, Liangzi, don’t forget to join the company dinner tonight, we’re going to another room."
Out of the room, Ye Ying said, "Liang He is too arrogant, right?"
President Su let out an embarrassed chuckle, "That’s just his personality, don’t take it to heart."
"President Su, can he really refuse the jobs arranged by the company?"
"He can. Liang He has changed his contract with the company. The agreement is that he doesn’t have to follow any company arrangements; that’s how it is."
"Such favorable treatment?"
"With Liang He’s current status, it’s not surprising."
"President Su." Ye Ying asked what she really wanted to know, "Is there a way for me to join the new play starring Liang He and Long Tianjiao? The role doesn’t have to be too important, just to be involved."
"That’s beyond our control," President Su explained, "Their project is a TV series co-invested by LN Company, Gu Family, and Long Group; it doesn’t involve us; I’m guessing it would be difficult for you to get in."
"Then forget it." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs noveⅼfire.net
In the evening, the actors and staff of the company gather for dinner at a nearby restaurant.
Liang He arrived late with his agent, Mu Ya.
When he arrived, he sat next to President Su, with Sun Qianqian sitting beside him.
In Liang He’s eyes, all he could see were demons and monsters. He truly didn’t want to see this crowd of hypocritical schemers.
