Chapter 81 Invitation (Part )
Yu Yuan has been in the industry for fifteen years and has experienced many conspiracies and intrigues in the fight for resources.
He responded to these tactics directed against him personally and never took them to heart.
However, Ruogu and Huaixi are his Achilles' heel. If anyone tries to implicate them, he will be courting death.
Even if this incident was resolved without any danger, he would never let it go. Although he was having dinner with everyone happily and cheerfully, he privately kept urging the hacker who checked the lp address to give him accurate information as soon as possible.
Ruogu accompanied Yu Yuan to social events. She had a calm smile on her face and was low-key and kind. When she talked with other people, she had her own opinions and was definitely not a person who was all show and no substance.
When the couple toasted, Xiao Jie observed them imperceptibly. He originally thought that a man as successful in his career as Yu Yuan, who had not made an official announcement for more than ten years of marriage, must have other plans.
Unexpectedly, he is very caring towards his wife, and his heart and eyes are full of her. Although he can act in front of outsiders, his subconscious little actions cannot deceive others.
When Xiao Jie saw Yu Yuan pour the wine that Ruogu couldn't drink into his own glass and drink it all, he dared to conclude that the couple had a deep affection for each other.
When the two came to him, Yu Yuan held up the wine glass and said solemnly:
"Teacher Xiao, you've worked hard today. If it weren't for you taking control of the situation, this premiere wouldn't have gone so smoothly. My husband and I would like to toast you."
Xiao Jie was very considerate and drank the wine in one gulp. He smiled and joked, "Brother Yu, you are really keeping it a secret. I have known you for so many years and I didn't know you had a wife. Tell me, who else in the circle knows about this?"
Yu Yuan said briskly, "Not many people in the circle know about this. Even if no one broke the news, I was planning to take the initiative to announce it, but I didn't expect that things would happen at the same time."
Xiao Jie nodded in understanding. This was just a small matter in the entertainment industry. It was not difficult to guess what was going on. He looked at Ruogu and praised, "My sister-in-law is well-read and has a refined demeanor. She is very quick-witted and handles things well on stage. Otherwise, this matter would not have ended so easily."
Yu Yuan deeply agrees, "My wife is excellent, this is my blessing."
Ruogu shook her head and laughed. She said modestly, "I dare not take credit for it. You have become famous for your strength, and the fans you have accumulated are all attracted by your acting skills. As long as your acting skills are up to par and you continue to produce good works, they will accept it even if it is not me."
Yu Yuan's mouth curled up, his eyes revealing an indescribable joy. He whispered, "Your recognition makes me happier than winning an award."
Ruogu rolled his eyes at him helplessly. Xiao Jie watched the interaction between the couple and became more and more eager. He moved closer to Yu Yuan and lowered his voice:
"I'm preparing a variety show recently. The content is to invite celebrity couples to travel together and reveal to the audience the daily life of celebrity couples. Now the list of invited guests has come out, but the heavyweight finale guest has not been revealed. I think you two are just right."
Yu Yuan seldom participates in variety shows. Even if he has to, it is always for film promotion. Even if it is a couple variety show, he is reluctant to expose their private lives to the public.
Yu Yuan refused without a second thought: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for your consideration. We can't participate in this program. My wife has a clinic to run, and I also have other work to take care of. I'm really too busy."
Xiao Jie was not surprised by this answer. He said sincerely, "I know you are busy. As long as you are willing to participate, you can decide the recording location. You can use this program to let the public accept and bless your marriage. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone? How great."
Yu Yuan frowned slightly. Xiao Jie had a very high status in the circle. When he first debuted, he had received favors from him. Over the years, he never refused any favor he could lend a hand to. He owed Xiao Jie a favor, and he found it difficult to refuse again.
Ruogu knew Yu Yuan was in trouble when she saw his expression. She walked up to him and smiled softly:
"Teacher Xiao, we need to go home and discuss this matter. Recording a variety show takes too long, and we have too many things to consider. Please give us some time to think about it."
As long as you don't reject it outright, there is room for negotiation. Xiao Jie said with a smile:
"It's okay, it's okay. You guys take your time to think about it. The official recording of this program will not be until the first half of next year. It's still in the preparation stage. There's no rush."
Yu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. At least there was still a buffer period. He said gently:
"Mr. Xiao, I'll give you an answer later. You can continue to contact other stars. If you find a more suitable candidate, don't consider us."
Xiao Jie still had a smile on his face. He said seriously, "No one is more suitable than you to be the finale guest. Both the topic and the audience's novelty about your younger brother and sister are very high. With you joining, the ratings are bound to be high."
Yu Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Let's talk about this later. I'll toast to the others first."
Xiao Jie was very considerate, "You and your sister-in-law should be busy first, I will go to your company to talk to you later."
Yu Yuan nodded slightly. What else could he do? Favors owed had to be repaid. Ruogu also had his own concerns, so he didn't mention the matter for now.
Yu Yuan and Ruogu were busy until after eight o'clock in the evening before they were able to go home and take a breath. Although there was a lot of uproar on the Internet, Yu Yuan still wanted to make an official announcement. He asked Liao Dingmin to help him take a photo of the couple walking together under the street lights.
He posted the photo on Weibo with the caption: I will use all my passion to care for you and love you forever!
After this Weibo post was published, the Internet was in an uproar again.
"I can't believe you are such a powerful actor, you are such a wife-loving man~"
"Can middle-aged couples still be so loving? I think it's too much of a show."
"Tsk tsk tsk, this is just showing off their love, it's so unfriendly to singles."
In addition to the increasing number of messages from netizens, celebrities in the circle also forwarded their blessings. Xu Xinran, Zhou Hexuan, Ji Tianyang and others who had contact with Ruogu were full of praise for Ruogu. They not only praised her for being beautiful and kind, but also praised her medical skills as miraculous, which made netizens have a deeper understanding of Ruogu.
Zhou Tong looked at the one-sided public opinion on the Internet and angrily smashed her phone against the wall. She gasped and cursed: "Don't these people have brains? This couple is extremely hypocritical. They deceived their fans for so long, and they can actually forgive them. How despicable!"
Fu Juan was already used to Zhou Tong's occasional outbursts. She opened her lunch box and said coldly, "Things are going in a direction that cannot be reversed. It's useless to be angry. Let's eat first. Only when you're full can you know what to do next."
Zhou Tong's eyes were filled with hostility. She angrily said, "How can Yu Yuan reverse his reputation in such a short time? I just took a wrong step and was doomed to eternal damnation. This world is so unfair."
Fu Juan took a bite of her meal and said calmly, "Yu Yuan has countless masterpieces, each of which is a classic. How can you compare him with him?"
