Chapter 989 - What Does It Matter If He Comes?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“To draw out the real bad guys, I guess. But that’s not the point. The point is, he never told me about this. I found out by guessing. Which means if I didn’t ask and he didn’t come back, I’d never know.”

The manager said subconsciously, “Doctor Gu probably didn’t tell you because of your safety.”

“Whose side are you on?” Liang Xinran was a little unhappy.

“Of course I’m on your side! But Xinran, the reason Doctor Gu didn’t tell you was definitely because he was worried about you. However, what he did was indeed wrong. He made you worry so much. He deserves to be scolded! He just can’t have it!”

Liang Xinran could tell that she was trying to smooth things over. Instead, she smiled. “That’s right. I said the same thing. He deserves to be scolded.”

!!

“Then are you never going to forgive him?” the manager asked cautiously.

Liang Xinran pinched the script. “Forget it, I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll go dub.”

The voice director was worried about her condition. “Do I need to review the script with you again?”

“No need, Director. Let’s get started.”

The recording began.

This time, Liang Xinran was in a much better state, and the voice acting was also under control.

The director gave her an OK sign to continue.

The next few days of recording went well.

The only difference was that Gu Jingyuan did not come over again. Not once.

Liang Xinran finished recording on the last day and walked out. Her manager looked around first. “Why isn’t Dr. Gu here yet?”

“What does it matter if he comes or not?” Liang Xinran said indifferently.

“Is he angry? You’ve been ignoring him for days. Anyone will have a temper.”

“I don’t care what he thinks.” Although Liang Xinran said that, she couldn’t help but tighten her grip on the script in her hand.

She got into the car and the manager caught up with her. “By the way, I received a script. Would you like to read it first?”

“I have something on tomorrow. I’ll look at it later.”

“What is it? Do you need me to come along?”

“Let’s go together,” Liang Xinran said after some thought.

“Where are we going? What do I have to prepare?” the manager asked.

“The opening trial of the pharmaceutical company case.”

The manager smiled and said, “Then will we see Dr. Gu?”

“What does it matter if he goes or not? This matter is related to Shi Jin. I’ll go and support my friend.”

“Got it. Supporting a friend.” The manager gave her a knowing look.

Early the next morning.

Liang Xinran got up, showered, changed her clothes, and put on makeup. When she heard the knock on the door, she went over to open it.

The manager ushered in the makeup artist and stylist.

“What’s all the fuss about? I don’t need—”

“You need it.” The agent pressed her back into her chair. “I’ll leave Xinran to you two.”

Liang Xinran’s resistance was futile. She was forced to do a glamorous look, and her makeup was also exceptionally exquisite.

They even specially put a blue business suit on her. It looked like she wasn’t there to listen in today. She looked like a lawyer in court, but she was much prettier and more exquisite than a lawyer. She looked like she was going to film a workplace drama.

Speechless, she glanced at the manager.

The manager said, “There must be a lot of reporters taking pictures today. If we’re going, of course we have to go beautifully. What are we afraid of?”

Liang Xinran had no choice but to follow her into the car.

She checked Weibo. There were quite a few people following this case.

However, because no one knew the details, many people scolded Gu Jingyuan. The hatred they had for Li Nan back then was also transferred to him. Many people scolded him without looking into the details

Her fingers tightened involuntarily.

The manager saw that she didn’t look too good and said, “Stop looking at your phone. You’re going to get carsick.”

“I’m just looking at the news.”

Although there were many doubts on the Internet, since Gu Jingyuan had already returned, she believed that there should be no big problem with the Li family’s matter. Moreover, what happened back then had already happened. Even if the Li family had done it, it did not mean that Gu Jingyuan should take the blame.

She thought about how she had not seen him for a few days. Under such pressure, she wondered what Gu Jingyuan’s situation was these few days.

Thinking of this, Liang Xinran regretted her indifference for the past few days.

The manager took the call. “Okay, we got it.”

When she finished, she said to the driver, “Turn around and park at the back door. Then let’s walk around and go in.”

“What’s wrong?” Liang Xinran asked.

“I don’t know either. Dr. Gu said he saw our car and asked us to take a detour.”

Liang Xinran lifted the curtains and looked outside. She saw that there were many people surrounding the main entrance and the street.

There were also quite a few with banners.

She could not see clearly, but she could guess that these people were very angry. It was obvious that these people were scolding Gu Jingyuan.

Gu Jingyuan specially called her because he did not want her to be affected.

She pursed her lips slightly and said, “Back door, then.”

Shi Jin and Fu Xiuyuan’s car came in too.

Despite the closed windows, she could hear the noise outside, the swearing.

Shi Jin’s expression faded.

Fu Xiuyuan said softly, “They don’t know the situation of this trial yet, nor do they know who the culprit is. That’s why they continue to target Eldest Brother and Uncle. They’ll be fine after the trial.”

“Yue Ling is really good at hiding this information. At the end of the day, he hasn’t announced the news of Old Madam Yue’s capture. He’s still protecting the Yue family’s reputation.” Shi Jin’s voice was cold. “But this way, Eldest Brother will have too much to bear.”

“That’s just as well. The more they curse now, the more they’ll be in the wrong afterwards.”

Fu Xiuyuan glanced at the people outside. These were also people who were temporarily in the dark.

Although many victims had come to Old Madam Yue’s birthday banquet last time, it was only a small portion.

The real majority had yet to show their faces.

Today, many victims and their families were gathered here.

Soon. The truth would not be hidden for long.

Shi Jin and Fu Xiuyuan got out of the car and looked at the crowd from afar before striding in.

***

After Liang Xinran got out of the car, she walked over with her manager.

Gu Jingyuan leaned against the waiting area and waited for Liang Xinran to come over.

A family member of the victim holding a banner saw Gu Jingyuan over there and said angrily, “Isn’t that Gu Jingyuan? How dare he come? Why didn’t the police arrest him?”

“Let’s go and get an explanation from him!”

A group of people immediately walked towards Gu Jingyuan. However, the security guards immediately stopped them from getting close to Gu Jingyuan.
