mengshen lowered his head sullenly. âtheyâre them, and iâm me.â gu ran glanced at him and shrugged, refusing to comment.
âteacher gu, i know that iâm not good enough now, but iâll definitely work
hard. iâll prove it to you.â
gu ran replied indifferently, âwhat you do has nothing to do with me.â
âteacher gu, are you close to the movie king?â
ânot really.â gu ran walked into the elevator.
mengshen frowned. ânot really? i donât think so! i saw that he can even lend you his own lounge. you two must be very close, right?â
gu ran looked back at him and sneered. âwhat are you trying to imply! are you trying to help your aunt?â
âno, no, no, thatâs not what i meant.â mengshen quickly waved his hand and explained, âteacher gu, iâm not suspecting you. itâs just that the movie king is a playboy. he has many secret lovers in private. iâm just afraid that youâll be deceived by him.â
âi appreciate your kind intentions. however, the movie king and i have only recorded two episodes of the show, so weâre slightly more familiar with each other than strangers. we canât even be considered friends. this time, borrowing his lounge was just an accident. you donât have to be wary of a formidable enemy. tell your aunt not to worry.â
mengshen said awkwardly, âactually, i really didnât mean that. my auntâ¦â
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, âdonât 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 itâs inconvenient for him, i naturally wonât cross the line. iâll avoid such rumors from being created in the future. are you satisfied now?â
mengshen pursed his lips and explained, âteacher gu, i donât have any ill intentions. itâs 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 naturallyâ¦â
âi donât have any interest in your familyâs affairs. all i know is that iâm very tired right now. i need to rest. can you leave now?â at this point, mengshen could not say anything else.
âthen, i wonât disturb you anymore. teacher gu, rest well.â
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.
âyou finally remembered me. i thought that you were very determined and werenât going to contact me for the rest of your life!â a lazy voice sounded from the other end of the line. the man even yawned lazily.
âare you out of money? how much do you want?â
âbrother, something happened!â mengshen quipped with a serious expression. âi bumped into uncle today. uncle mo was with him too, and i realized that heâs very special to a girl. he even lent her his lounge at the filming site.â
âwhat did you say!â the person on the other end of the line suddenly became sober and serious. âdid you see it with your own eyes? who is that girl!â
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!
âdamn, i knew that his aloofness was just an illusion. he definitely wouldnât be able to stand the loneliness and cheat on our aunt!â
mengshen frowned. âactually, you canât say that. after all, aunt has never been around, and teacher gu is so pretty..
ârascal, whose side are you on! why are you siding with outsiders!â the person on the other end of the line scolded mengshen. in the end, he said, âwait, you said that the womanâs surname is also gu?â
âyes, she has the same surname as us.â gu mengshen nodded. âi felt that we were fated to meet for the first time. perhaps we were still the same family a hundred years ago!â
the other person pondered for a moment before slowly saying, âi remember that thereâs a relative of our family in c city. is she from their family?â
âno. iâve asked around before. the head of the gu family is called gu rongtian.
he has a daughter called gu yi. her age doesnât match teacher gu. they are not the same person.â
âsince it has nothing to do with our family, how dare she mess with us and snatch our auntâs man? does she really think our gu family is a pushover?â
