This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 659 - 448
(Don’t look yet, just add the title and it’s done)
Wu Mu used a note to inquire about the situation on Lin Qingyue’s side.
After Lin Qingyue’s cousins went in, and no new notes came out, his phone rang directly; it was an unfamiliar landline number.
Upon answering, there was no voice from the other side, only gentle breathing sounds.
Wu Mu spoke softly, "Is everything okay?"
The person on the other end sounded fine and even managed to laugh, "It’s a bit troublesome, let’s see what my grandpa says."
She even asked Wu Mu, "With my dad like that, are you upset?"
Wu Mu chuckled and sighed, "You have more pressure, and yet you’re not worried, so why should I be?"
He hummed, "Just see it as the old man reluctant to part with his daughter."
Lin Qingyue chuckled softly.
After the laughter, the call fell silent again, only hearing the breathing from over there.
Wu Mu was not in a hurry, he just listened quietly.
After a few seconds of pause, Lin Qingyue spoke again, "Wu Mu, if my grandpa disagrees, what will you do then?"
Wu Mu replied without hesitation, "I’ll follow your lead."
The person on the other end laughed again, followed by Lin Qingyue’s satisfied voice, "That’s good."
She spoke comfortingly, "Don’t worry too much, I understand my dad and my grandpa; as long as I don’t back down, this thing will eventually pass."
"Mhm."
The two talked for a little over half an hour until footsteps could be heard from Lin Qingyue’s side, and then the call was ended.
The footsteps belonged to Lin Qingyue’s grandpa.
He came directly to find Lin Qingyue, entering the room with a group of people in tow. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
Upon entering and seeing Lin Qingyue’s phone-hanging actions, he spoke in a calm voice, "Talking with Wu Mu?"
Lin Qingyue nodded openly, "Yes."
Lin Xueming, who also entered the room, got angry seeing this, "Look at how you are now."
However, before Lin Qingyue could respond to this criticism, her grandpa Du Xingguo shook his head and smiled, "Xueming, you didn’t notice, but Qingyue is doing this on purpose, to show us her stance and importance."
"In situations like this, if she shows hesitation, then she instantly loses her negotiation qualification, the status becomes unbalanced."
Du Xingguo looked at Lin Qingyue, his expression somewhat emotional, "This girl has more insight than you guys."
Lin Qingyue went up to help her grandpa Du Xingguo sit down, "Grandpa, Wu Mu also values and stands firm, he’s still outside."
Du Xingguo nodded while sitting down, "That kid is good, not backing down, showing responsibility. He speaks neither humbly nor arrogantly, and as soon as he came in he offered what he could give, calmly understanding that solving the problem is most important now, not getting angry, indeed he and the girl have very compatible personalities."
Lin Xueming’s brow furrowed slightly, "Dad, he’s a celebrity, his fame and exposure are too high, not beneficial for Qingyue, also he has to face countless temptations every day, now even has scandals with a lot of female celebrities, and then there’s this issue."
"Yes, it’s a pity he’s a celebrity, and there’s still this issue."
Du Xingguo sighed too, holding Lin Qingyue’s hand from the side, kindly said, "Qingyue, do you know your dad’s expectations for you?"
Lin Qingyue nodded to indicate her understanding.
Her family had always hoped she would enter politics, wanting her to directly major in law and public administration when she started university.
But she wanted to become a director and make movies, so her path shifted, starting as a TV director, first developing within the TV station’s internal system, then moving onto the Bureau of Broadcasting and State Administration.
"You wanted to study directing in college, your dad agreed, but you also promised your dad to follow his general direction, why are you going back on your word now?" Du Xingguo looked at her.
Lin Qingyue replied patiently, "Grandpa, I haven’t gone back on my word, my situation with Wu Mu and this are not necessarily in absolute conflict, there’re always solutions, there’s no need to separate us."
Lin Xueming looked at her with a serious face, "Do you believe in what you’re saying? His dad is a murderer. Every time you’re up for a promotion, that will be dug up and talked about, who will dare to keep giving you chances? At lower positions we can cover up, but once you rise, how will you compete with others?"
Lin Qingyue remained patient, explaining to her father, "That’s why I agreed not to marry Wu Mu yet. Wu Mu is developing rapidly, by the time it may not even be a negative impact."
"You want to spend six or seven years gambling on a possibility? And then it’ll be too late to regret?"
"I think there are no completely secure choices in life, we shouldn’t avoid doing anything just for fear of loss. Instead, we should strive to move things in the direction we want based on our own will."
"Are you trying to educate me now?"
Du Xingguo watched the argument between the two, sighing deeply when Lin Xueming got more and more agitated.
He placed his hand over Lin Qingyue’s with affection in his eyes, "Separate from him, he’s an excellent young man, but his background isn’t suitable, it’s not meant to be."
Originally calm, Lin Qingyue’s face slowly began to change and hardened bit by bit.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.
Du Lan gently stroked her daughter’s head affectionately, "Don’t blame your dad and them, they just don’t want to see you take the wrong path and pay so dearly for a moment’s choice."
Lin Xueming released a breath and his voice softened, "One day you’ll understand, love is false, it always changes due to various reasons, only family will forever want the best for you."
He stood up and moved to leave, "I’ll go talk to him."
