Chapter 1812: Chapter 1812: Tomorrow’s Star (14)

Chuzheng: "..."

The former award-winning actor doesn’t wash his feet!!

Gu Yu seemed to read this from Chuzheng’s face, his expression changed slightly, and he called his bodyguard in.

The bodyguard came in and tidied everything for Gu Yu, then quickly exited the room, just as Chuzheng finished her shower and came out.

Without any clothes to wear, she was only wrapped in a bathrobe.

"What are you wearing?"

Gu Yu was leaning on the bed reading a book. When he saw Chuzheng come out, his eyes narrowed, swirling with a dangerous gleam.

"A bathrobe."

"Whose?"

"Yours, of course." Chuzheng was baffled: "This is your room, how could it possibly be mine?" Is he an idiot?

Gu Yu’s face darkened: "Who allowed you to wear it!"

"...Then should I take it off?" Chuzheng said as she reached for the belt.

Gu Yu quickly averted his gaze, stiffly spat out two words: "Keep it on."

Chuzheng uttered a small "oh," sat next to him, and began to dry her hair.

Gu Yu tried to focus on his book, but was constantly distracted by the person beside him. Her every movement seemed to affect his nerves.

Even his assistants were all men. Other than during filming, when had he ever been so close to a girl?

He now felt a bit suffocated... making him very unhappy.

Why is the lighting in the room so dim?

Gu Yu reached out and turned on all the nearby lights, lighting up the area, making the person across clearer to see.

Gu Yu swiftly turned the lights back off.

"What are you going crazy about?" Chuzheng turned to look at him.

Gu Yu ignored her, his face sullen as he flipped through his book.

Chuzheng: "..."

Madman.

At that moment, Gu Yu was likely thinking the same three words about Chuzheng.

Both cursed each other in their hearts, then continued with their own activities.

-

In the end, adhering to the idea of yielding to the patient, Chuzheng slept on the floor, while Gu Yu took the bed.

The result was that Gu Yu was scolded by Old Madam Gu the next morning. When he left, his face was not very good.

"Take me to the square ahead."

Gu Yu glanced at her without any comment, and the driver took it as Gu Yu agreeing to Chuzheng’s request.

Gu Yu suddenly reached out to Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: "???"

What does he mean?

Hesitantly, Chuzheng handed her hand over.

The girl’s hand was soft, as if boneless, her palm warm, resting gently in the man’s hand, making her skin seem even more fair.

Gu Yu was taken aback by Chuzheng’s sudden movement.

The next second, he furrowed his brow, withdrawing his hand, saying coldly: "The ring."

"What ring?" I didn’t buy a ring!! Where am I supposed to get you a ring!!

Gu Yu’s gaze fell on Chuzheng’s hand.

Chuzheng followed his gaze to see the ring on her finger glimmering softly.

An engagement ring... It was the ring Gu Yu tossed her way the other day.

Gu Yu gestured towards her, "Give it back."

Chuzheng, expressionless, said: "Mr. Gu, this ring should belong to me, right?"

"Ha." Gu Yu chuckled coldly: "Miss Qin, you personally threw it on the ground back then, and now you say it’s yours? Miss Qin, don’t you find that contradictory?"

Chuzheng: "..."

The original chick really did such a thing?

...Seems like she did.

Gu Yu previously gave her this ring probably to avoid Old Madam Gu noticing anything wrong.

Chuzheng took several deep breaths inside, calmly and composedly said: "Mr. Gu, I’ll take good care of my things, no need to trouble you."

Gu Yu: "???

Gu Yu was full of question marks inside.

What is this woman up to again?

Chuzheng was determined not to return it, and Gu Yu, being a man, couldn’t just snatch it back. That would be too unbecoming. His suspended hand slowly retracted, his face cold as he stared out the window at the passing scenery.

The car stopped at the square, and Chuzheng got out without fuss. As soon as the door closed, the car shot off like an arrow, leaving a trail of exhaust in Chuzheng’s face.

Chuzheng: "..."

Dog... can’t curse, where’s the Good Person Card?

Sigh!

Chuzheng calmed herself down, walked through the square, and entered a building.

Since the incident at the club, Chuzheng had blocked Liu Chunhua’s number. Liu Chunhua had no idea where she was, so naturally, couldn’t do anything about her.

Just before attending Old Madam Gu’s birthday banquet, Liu Chunhua sent her a text using someone else’s phone, telling her to report to the company or face a penalty for breach of contract.

So now Chuzheng was here...

[Paying up is absolutely out of the question!] The Bastard assured with a chest thump: [We’ll buy it!!]

Buy it buy it then buy it!

Chuzheng: "..."

Not really keen.

When Chuzheng entered the company, the looks from everyone around were filled with unfamiliarity and admiration.

"Newly signed?"

"Haven’t heard of..."

"With looks like that, it would be unjust if she doesn’t become popular."

Chuzheng made her way to the boss’s office. The boss hadn’t come in at this hour, and Chuzheng just walked in and sat down.

She acted so naturally that even the boss’s assistant didn’t dare stop her.

-

Liu Chunhua, feeling extremely upset, came out of the elevator, grabbing someone to ask: "Has Qin Chuzheng come today?"

She had sent messages for two to three days, and that brat didn’t even bother showing up.

That person shrank back: "She... she came."

"Where is she?" Today, she intended to properly teach this girl a lesson for daring to play hide-and-seek with her. Not that she wanted to, the contract was still with the company.

That person pointed to the boss’s office.

"In... inside."

Liu Chunhua frowned, why did she go in there? Could it be the boss saw her current look?

Everyone knew the boss was a lecher.

A little good-looking and wanting to climb upwards in the company would surely face harassment from this sleazeball. Unwilling ones would simply be suppressed without resources.

Actors live on a short career span, and their contracts usually start at ten years. Being withheld resources, who could endure?

Of course, this sleazeball wouldn’t really do anything to them. After all, everyone knew untouched ones are worth more and would fetch greater benefits outside.

So at most, it would be disgusting, having some liberties taken.

Liu Chunhua didn’t think much and headed straight for the office.

"President Sun."

"Come in."

President Sun’s voice seemed a bit strange. Was he having a cold, or...

Liu Chunhua pushed the door open, yet what she saw wasn’t the restricted scene she expected but President Sun crouching on the ground holding his head, clothes disheveled as if beaten.

While on the boss’s seat, the girl spun around bored, stopping the swivel abruptly upon seeing her come in.

The girl’s gaze from the chair swept over, icy and emotionless.

"You..."

Liu Chunhua pointed at Chuzheng, utterly shocked.

Why was she sitting here? What was the boss doing squatting on the ground?

"Liu Chunhua, what have you done!" President Sun burst out when he saw Liu Chunhua arrive: "Apologize to Miss Qin immediately!"

Liu Chunhua hated being called by that name, but the person in front was President Sun, so she could only endure,

"President Sun, what are you talking about, she..."

"She what?" President Sun bellowed: "Do you know who Miss Qin is, and yet you dared to set up such a liquor banquet for her? Do you have the guts of a bear and heart of a leopard!"
