"Miss Gu, I just heard some nasty rumors about you. Everyone is saying..."Gu Jiuci quickly sent back a reply."Do you believe them?"It was a long time before another message came from Mi An."I... I don't believe them! If you really are like that, then you wouldn't have helped me that day! You have to be careful of those spreading these rumors, do you need my help?"Seeing these words, Gu Jiuci's lips curved into a smile. "Of course, I am a good judge of character.""I think I already know who they are."After she sent this message, Gu Jiuci put her phone away and pushed open the door. The women outside who had been flapping their tongues had already left. She was just about to walk out when, but coincidentally, Jiang Min walked in humming a tune with a happy expression.Coming face-to-face with her rival, Jiang Min's expression immediately chilled. In a mocking tone, she said, "Gu Jiuci, how does it feel to be isolated? Is it a familiar feeling?""Jiang Min."Gu Jiuci was
Originally, this had nothing to do with Gu Jiuci, but Jiang Min suddenly said in a peculiar tone, "Gu Jiuci, why are you looking at her with such a mocking gaze? Do you think Shasha isn't as pretty as you?"The atmosphere immediately cooled and everyone stared meaningfully at Gu Jiuci. She laughed helplessly to herself. "This Jiang Min, she really knows how to make trouble for me."At this time, the makeup artist called her name. Gu Jiuci stood and glanced at Li Shasha and Jiang Min."I didn't say anything."She finished speaking lightly and entered the makeup room.Jiang Min's punch had landed unsatisfyingly and she gritted her teeth in anger. "Humph! I want to see just how pretty you can be!"Li Shasha stared at Gu Jiuci's retreating figure and her gaze immediately chilled."Who's this newbie? So rude.""Shasha, you're the daughter of a wealthy family. Don't give a thought to someone like her who depends on a sugar daddy," her agent said consolingly and immediately handed her
"Hey! Don't smile so exaggeratingly!"A few new actors had already burst into tears because of his scolding, and even Li Shasha's eyes had grown red, but no one dared to offend the photographer. After they finished, they all quietly sat to the side to wait.During the break in the middle of it, Mike angrily grumbled to Li Le'an."Director Li, your judgment for the casting this time is very poor. Other than the male and female lead who know how to take photos, everyone else is very wooden!""Alright, alright. Your temper is even worse than mine. This is the last time, hurry and finish!"Li Le'an pointed at Gu Jiuci, who was already standing beneath the lights, and silently said a prayer for her."I heard Mike's temper gets worse towards the end. Gu Jiuci is going to be scolded bloody, right?""For someone like her, who got in on money, and has absolutely no skill, she must be even more wooden than wood when put under the camera. It's her own fault if she gets scolded!""I can't
With Mike's praise for Gu Jiuci at the front of their minds, no one wanted to embarrass themselves. They all put in 200% effort.Although it was an indoor shoot, a small mound had been built against a green screen.In the finale of the novel, everyone climbed to the top of a mountain outside the city and shouted out their dreams."Come, everyone, take your places! I'm in a rush! Hurry!"Mike's explosive temper when finishing up was not a lie. He urged them to hurry with impatience.Gu Jiuci immediately went to the spot on the slope that was her position when she suddenly heard a shout behind her.She raised her head instinctively and just happened to see Du Fanghua in front of her, who had lost her balance because of her heels, come tumbling down toward her.In that instant, Gu Jiuci stretched out an arm without hesitation and caught Du Fanghua's waist."Are you all right?"Without warning, Du Fanghua fell into Gu Jiuci's arms. Shock and embarrassment flashed across her face.
Gu Jiuci opened her mouth indifferently and set off a heavyweight bomb. Xu Yun'er's eyes went round with shock. "Gu Jiuci, this idiot, she actually called me cousin right here."Just at this moment, the director called Gu Jiuci away."Coming!"Gu Jiuci rose calmly and left Xu Yun'er alone to deal with everyone's suspicions.Even Li Shasha was slightly surprised. "You're her cousin?"The looks the other actors turned on Xu Yun'er also became more thoughtful. They were looking at her now the same way they were looking at Gu Jiuci earlier."Xu Yun'er, I thought you were a kind and honest person. Did you get your role by throwing money at the producers too?""You're misunderstanding..."For the first time, Xu Yun'er experienced such incoherency and what it meant to end up worse than you began. She wanted to slander Gu Jiuci, but had ended up slandering herself instead."Everything you've heard is just rumor. If Ci and I got in with money, why wouldn't we have taken the important r
Gu Jiuci looked at her phone, unconsciously staring at the black screen, then she opened it again.She was having some trouble sleeping."Gu Jiuci, when did you become so unreasonable? Weren't you terrified of the devil in your last life?"She muttered absent-mindedly to herself and suddenly found that her mind was filled with Huo Mingche's face.His face when he was gazing at her with deep emotion, his face when he peeled shrimps for her, and his face that night when he confined her under his body and asked if she would give him...That image was branded in her mind and was impossible to remove.Gu Jiuci awkwardly covered her eyes with her hand. "Why do I keep thinking of that night?"She suddenly discovered, to her surprise, that she had become less and less afraid of the devil. To the point that the things Huo Mingche had done in her previous life were gradually fading from her mind, and some had even been forgotten.The clock ticked over to 12 p.m. Gu Jiuci was sure she wou
Si Chen made an apologetic expression, but then turned and picked up her phone eagerly and stared intently at her WeChat messages.At this moment, Gu Jiuci's phone also rang. It was a document from Tang Yu. In it was the information concerning the financial status of the Yu Corporation that she had asked him to investigate?What fortuitous timing!Gu Jiuci cheered in her heart and abruptly raised her head to say to Si Chen, "Si Chen, did you really go to the amusement park with Yu Gu that day?""Of course, we went on a lot of rides and even took photos together."Speaking of Yu Gu, Si Chen immediately remembered that day at the amusement park and a content smile curved her lips."Then did he bring up his family's situation with you?"Gu Jiuci questioned her step by step."Family situation... I don't think he did. However, he did talk about our future. Recently, the Yu Corporation has a large project they want to work on with our family. Once we are married, our ties will be fur
"I can't give such a person any chances!"Gu Jiuci's expression fell. "Looks like Chenchen is more infatuated with Yu Gu than I thought."She seemed to see herself in Si Chen. "How can I make Si Chen see the truth?""Alright, let's not talk about Yu Gu anymore. Let's keep practicing. There isn't much time until the interview with Juilliard!"Si Chen voluntarily changed the subject and Gu Jiuci couldn't say anything more.At dinner time, Si Chen's mother warmly invited Gu Jiuci to eat with them. Si Chen's father was busy at the company and so the three women ate together. During this time, the television was playing the hourly news."Next, we are deeply sorry to bring you the news that the world-famous physicist Stephen passed away three minutes ago. A brilliant star in the history of human civilization has fallen."Gu Jiuci stared at the television and her face immediately paled. Her fingers shook so hard that she couldn't hold her chopsticks steady. If not for this news reminde
