Chapter 69: Pictures Speak the Truth (Second Update…)
The vehicle was speeding on the road. Ruogu sat in the car, enjoying the wind. She let herself go and enjoyed this brief freedom and unrestrainedness.
Liao Dingmin observed the two of them through the rearview mirror. He raised his voice and asked, "Brother Yuan, how is the cooperation project going?"
Yu Yuan glanced at Ruogu first. He had a hunch that Ruogu seemed distant from him. Even though he was not sure, he was still in a bad mood.
However, Yu Yuan is a very cunning person, and his emotions are invisible on his face, making it difficult for people to detect.
He said calmly, "The cooperation project has been negotiated. We can just bring a lawyer to sign it. The Wang family owes your sister-in-law a favor, so they are willing to make concessions."
Liao Dingmin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is amazing. I just don't understand. This heart surgery is clearly performed on the chest. How could it make the patient unconscious?"
Ruogu took back her hand that was supporting her chin, straightened her hair that was messed up by the wind, and said with a light smile, "The brain is the home of the soul. Obstruction of the clear orifices can lead to blockage of the brain orifices. You can understand it as damage to the central nervous system."
Liao Dingmin nodded as if he understood, and said with admiration: "Chinese medicine knowledge is very profound. It's amazing that my sister-in-law can learn it."
Perhaps because she was about to go home, Ruogu was in a much more cheerful mood. She said in a brisk voice, "It's not difficult for those who know how to do it. This is a very simple knowledge point for those who are interested in Chinese medicine. It's just a matter of specialization."
Liao Dingmin thought this made sense and continued to talk in depth with Ruogu. Yu Yuan found Liao Dingmin's voice extremely harsh.
He felt as if he was being ignored by Ruogu, and couldn't help but remind Liao Dingmin: "Don't chat and be distracted on the highway. Drive safely!"
His words made Ruogu look sideways. She didn't know what was wrong with this man. He was fine just now, but why did he get angry for no reason?
Liao Dingmin was also confused and couldn't figure out the situation. Brother Yuan had just concluded a deal and his sister-in-law was with him, so he should be in a good mood at the moment. He couldn't figure it out and stopped thinking about it.
Perhaps realizing that his tone was too cold and harsh, Yu Yuan explained to Ruogu:
"Assistant Liao is easily distracted when doing things, and there are many cars on the highway. I reminded him for safety reasons. Don't get me wrong."
Ruogu nodded slightly, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, looking as if he didn't want to talk to him.
Liao Dingmin curled his lips. Brother Yuan thought that he didn't hear what he said in a low voice. It was obviously him who made his sister-in-law angry, but he still spread rumors that he was distracted. How shameless...
Ruogu closed her eyes and thought deeply. In the past, no matter whether she was happy or not in the mansion, she always had a smile on her face. But now, she would give people a cold look if she was a little unhappy. It turned out that she had had too many good days.
Seeing that she was so unwilling to pay attention to him, Yu Yuan thought she was angry and became more and more uneasy.
There were only three people in the car. They were silent for a while, each with their own thoughts.
At the same time, in the private box of the Royal Blue Club, the spacious space is filled with luxurious furniture and comfortable chairs, and every corner is filled with a luxurious atmosphere.
Zhou Tong was lying on the sofa in dishevel. The sound coming out of her mouth was like the gurgling water in a mountain stream, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, melodious and lingering, until the clouds disappeared and the rain stopped.
Mr. Huang stood up from the sofa. He looked at Zhou Tong as if he was looking at an item to be sold. He straightened his clothes and sat down next to Zhou Tong with his big belly.
He rubbed his palms and smiled maliciously: "This female star is no different from an ordinary woman. Does she have to put on a costume and act like a character on TV to be more charming?"
He deliberately moved closer to Zhou Tong. His greasy voice was filled with a strong smell of mutton, which was unbearable. Zhou Tong suppressed the urge to vomit, smiled sweetly and threw herself into his arms, saying in a sweet voice:
"Hate it~ How can Mr. Huang talk like that? We have already agreed that you can't give the role of the second female lead to anyone else."
Mr. Huang was holding a beautiful woman in his arms, puffing out cigarettes comfortably. He squinted his eyes and said bluntly:
"It's fine to give you the role, but don't cause me any trouble. I invested in this drama to make money, not to make you famous again. You have to be aware of this."
Zhou Tong smiled shyly and said, "I understand. Don't worry, Mr. Huang. I'm not one of those popular stars who only have a pretty face but no acting skills. Are you still not confident in my business ability?"
Mr. Huang pinched her face and said sarcastically:
"You have acting skills, but I'm afraid you don't have brains. You still want to confront Yu Yuan head-on. He is not someone you can get close to right now."
When Zhou Tong heard him mention Yu Yuan, her face twisted instantly. She said contemptuously: "No matter how famous Yu Yuan is, he is just an artist. How can he be compared with Mr. Huang?"
Mr. Huang waved his hand and said in an ambiguous way, "Yu Yuan is not as simple as you think. He is worth more than me, and he has established a relationship with Yang Mingsheng. I heard that he just attended a private dinner. This means he has officially entered the capital circle."
Zhou Tong's face was terribly gloomy. She said unconvincedly:
"How can a hypocrite like him rise to the top? Mr. Huang, you have to help me vent my anger. I just wanted to use him to spread a scandal. There are many cases of people in the industry cooperating with each other to create public opinion, but he can't afford to play that game."
Mr. Huang pinched her chin with a half-smile, "Do you think I'm stupid? I'm going against Yu Yuan just for a filthy thing like you, and I'm helping you vent your anger. Who do you think you are?"
He threw Zhou Tong off the sofa, and she bumped into the coffee table unexpectedly. She felt a pain in her waist and blacked out her eyes. She lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't recover. Mr. Huang sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He spat and said casually:
"If you want to take revenge on Yu Yuan, go by yourself if you have the guts. Don't use me as cannon fodder. You're too much of an eyesore here. Get out of here right now."
Zhou Tong bit her lips tightly and let the tears roll down. She staggered out without saying a word.
At the gate of the Royal Blue Club, Fu Juan was sitting in the car and talking on the phone. She smiled and said in a flattering tone:
"Teacher Zhang, our Xiaoyuer is just a little naughty, but he is definitely not a bad boy. Please give him a chance."
I don’t know what was said on the other end of the phone, her face became uglier and uglier, and she pleaded again:
"Teacher Zhang, it was indeed wrong for Xiaoyuer to bite others, but it was also because the other party laughed at him for not having a father. You can't do this..."
Before she could finish her words, Teacher Zhang hung up the phone. Fu Juan heard the busy tone and pounded the steering wheel angrily.
She was so furious that she wanted to stab to death all those who bullied her and her son. Before she could vent her anger, the car door was suddenly pulled open.
Zhou Tong's makeup was smudged, and her face looked as ugly as a ghost. She covered her waist and shouted in a shrill voice: "Go... Why are you still stopping here? Don't you think I haven't been insulted enough?"
Compared with Zhou Tong's miserable condition at the moment, the anger in Fu Juan's chest was nothing. She obediently started the car and stepped on the accelerator to drive away from the club.
Mr. Huang is just a nouveau riche. His appearance alone is disgusting enough. It really makes things difficult for Zhou Tong.
Fu Juan didn't ask any questions and drove her home. It started to rain heavily on the way. Zhou Tong opened the car window and let the rain wet her cheeks. Her heavy makeup was all over her face, and her mother couldn't recognize her when she came.
The car sped along, and Fu Juan's cell phone kept ringing. She pressed the answer button impatiently. Her aunt said tremblingly:
"Mr. Fu, Xiaoyuer's teacher called me and asked me to take Xiaoyuer home, saying that he was expelled from school... Should I go and pick him up?"
Fu Juan cursed angrily and said angrily: "He has been expelled. What else can we do if we don't bring him back? Are you going to let him stand at the school gate and watch? Can you use your brains before doing things?"
The aunt agreed hurriedly and hung up the phone. Fu Juan sped up to 120 km/h and arrived at Zhou Tong's door in a short while.
As soon as the car stopped, Zhou Tong got out and walked home. Fu Juan locked the car door and immediately followed her.
The first thing Zhou Tong did when she got home was to take a shower. Fu Juan tried to stop her and just sat on the sofa and waited quietly.
Zhou Tong took a bath for more than an hour. When she came out of the bathroom, her mood had returned to normal. Seeing that Fu Juan had not left yet, she said in a hoarse voice: "Didn't your son have an accident? Why don't you go home?"
Fu Juan rubbed her temples and said as a matter of course: "I have an aunt at home to take care of the children. What if something happens to you?"
Zhou Tong took a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, opened it and poured it into her mouth. After drinking a bottle of beer, she burped loudly and sneered:
"You don't think I'm going to commit suicide, do you? I've been through all kinds of situations. Being slept with by Mr. Huang is like being licked by a dog. At least I got the role, so it's not a bad deal."
Fu Juan did not agree with her doing this at first, but several crews in a row did not dare to use her. If she did not find another way, she would not even have the chance to show her face. When she heard that she got the role, she was relieved, thinking that at least her work was not in vain.
Zhou Tong walked over to her and sat down, gritting his teeth and saying:
"I heard from Mr. Huang that Yu Yuan has established a relationship with Yang Mingsheng. I can't understand what ability he has that Yang Mingsheng is willing to introduce him to the capital circle."
Fu Juan pursed her lips when she heard this and said calmly, "Yu Yuan is not a show-off. He has made a lot of money from investment over the years. It's normal for him to have a relationship with Yang Mingsheng. But I can't understand why Mr. Wang from the Science and Technology Trade Group wants to cooperate with him."
When Zhou Tong heard this, her face changed. She said in disbelief:
"Who told you this nonsense? Even if Yu Yuan is very capable, he can't cooperate with the Science and Technology Trade Group. You must have heard it wrong."
Fu Juan also hoped that she had heard it wrong. She smiled bitterly and said, "It was the waiters at the Royal Blue Club who said it. They serve a lot in the private rooms and can hear all the news. This can't be false."
Zhou Tong stood up and said through gritted teeth, "If Yu Yuan has the help of the Science and Trade Group, his development will be even more amazing. Our chances of bringing him down are slim. We must speed up the process of bringing him down."
Fu Juan had no other choice. She said in a desolate voice, "Whatever you want to do, I am willing to cooperate."
Zhou Tong was quite satisfied with her reaction and said expressionlessly:
"Give me the address of Yu Yuan's wife first. I want to secretly take pictures of them. If I want to expose them, I need pictures and the truth. This way it will be more convincing."
