âMm,â Wen Chi responded impassively.
During the meal, Gu Huanhuan held Xiaobao, sitting beside Wen Chi and watched him eat.
Because Wen Chi didnât speak, Gu Huanhuan didnât dare to bring it up.
Wen Chi couldnât really be misunderstanding her and Lu Yiming to have an improper relationship, could he?
âHubbyâ¦â Gu Huanhuanâs voice trailed off lengthily.
âLet me finish eating before we settle this, Gu Huanhuan. Youâre getting too bold,â Wen Chi warned sternly.
âHubby, I was wrong, I will never rehearse lines with male actors again,â Gu Huanhuan was really wronged. Who exactly was targeting her?
One could imagine how badly Gu Huanhuan would be reprimanded.
The next day, when Gu Huanhuan arrived at the set, she felt somewhat embarrassed upon seeing Lu Yiming.
âSenior, Iâm sorry for dragging you into this,â Gu Huanhuan said, her face flushing.
âWhat are you talking about? In our line of work, these things are inevitable,â Lu Yiming was also helpless; he too had spent a long time explaining at home.
While Gu Huanhuan was getting her makeup done, Sister Gao came over.
âHuanhuan, when did you offend Qin Wanâer?â Sister Gao furrowed her brows and asked.
Gu Huanhuan understood immediately, âWas it her doing yesterdayâs incident?â
Sister Gao nodded.
âI didnât offend her, but I guess sheâs unhappy that I returned with good resources from the company. As you know, during my maternity leave, she had a smooth ride and has already secured the top spot in the company,â Gu Huanhuan guessed it was her but lamented the lack of evidence.
âHmm, such a sinister person. Being from the same company, arenât you technically her senior? Such an ingrate,â Sister Gao spat.
âSister Gao, evildoers will meet their karma. Letâs not stoop to the level of such petty people,â Gu Huanhuan was rather philosophical, aware of Qin Wanâerâs affair with the companyâs vice president, which would be problematic if revealed.
âHmm, but she has crossed my lines. I will bring this matter to the companyâs attention, and what they decide to do about it will be their business. Do you know how damaging such a report is to your reputation? Weâve worked so hard to build your reputation, only for it to be tarnished by her. I certainly canât let this go,â Sister Gao couldnât stand such people.
âDonât upset yourself; I donât think sheâll be able to keep this up for long,â after all, those who rely on their appearance for attention will eventually wear out their welcome.
And Qin Wanâer, aside from flaunting herself, didnât seem to have any real acting skills to speak of.
âThen Iâve got to see what becomes of her,â Sister Gao said through clenched teeth.
Gu Huanhuan was particularly moved, knowing Sister Gao was doing all this for her sake.
But clearly, Gu Huanhuan had overestimated Qin Wanâer; she didnât expect her downfall to come so soon.
They were in the company just after a meeting when a woman carrying a designer bag stormed in furiously.
âQin Wanâer, that vixen, come out here,â her tone was clearly not friendly.
Before everyone could grasp what was happening, the woman rushed forward and grabbed Qin Wanâer by the hair, âI taught you to steal someone elseâs husband, didnât I?â
The office was stunned; some still werenât clear about what was happening.
Qin Wanâer was also bewildered but felt her scalp tingle as she instinctively winced.
The woman clearly hadnât mistaken her identity; Qin Wanâer was a public figure, and she recognized her instantly.
âLet go, who are you?â Qin Wanâer shrieked.
