After rebirth, my new love and I made it real

Gu Yichen's eyes darkened, "What if I insist on doing this?"

He shouldn't have needed to get the consent of the person involved in this matter. He was considering Lin Qingran's face and didn't want to do anything too extreme, so he came all the way to talk to her.

As a result, Lin Qingran's performance was so ruthless that he was very disappointed.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath, and her gaze towards Gu Yichen finally became more serious. "Have you ever thought that this would ruin Xu Xinzhu?"

In the previous life, Xia Shu’s bed photos were also exposed without any warning.

So Xia Shu teamed up with Gu Yichen to throw all the dirty water on Xu Xinzhu. She cleared herself of the blame easily, but forced Xu Xinzhu, an innocent person, to commit suicide because he could not bear the pressure of public opinion.

At that time, Xu Xinzhu had no power or influence. In the eyes of Gu Yichen, Xia Shu and others, he was just a scapegoat to be slaughtered.

They didn't even need to ask Xu Xinzhu for his consent on this matter.

Because no matter how Xu Xinzhu speaks, they always have a way to make her give up.

When Lin Qingran thought of this, she felt a chill in her heart.

"Gu Yichen, what right do you have to fabricate rumors about an innocent person and make her pay for Xia Shu's mistakes?"

Gu Yichen answered as a matter of course: "Because Xia Shu is the woman I once loved."

Not only that, Xia Shu also saved his life.

There is affection between him and Xia Shu.

But to him, Xu Xinzhu was just an insignificant person among millions of ordinary people. It was already good enough that he was willing to compensate her. In this world, the strong are king, and he didn't need to consider whether a weak person was innocent.

Gu Yichen continued, "And I didn't intend to spread rumors about her. I just wanted to compensate her. She can decide the amount of compensation."

"I can't just watch Xia Shu get ruined. Why not have the best of both worlds?"

Lin Qingran laughed angrily.

"This is all because of your self-righteousness. Xu Xinzhu doesn't need your money at all, and she won't watch you destroy her innocence for money."

She looked at Gu Yichen coldly, "Xia Shu did it herself, so let her bear the consequences alone. She is trying to clear her name by throwing dirty water on others. This move is really disgusting. If you help her, you will be aiding and abetting the evil."

As soon as Lin Qingran finished speaking, Gu Yichen's face suddenly turned ugly.

"Lin Qingran, I'm not asking for your opinion. I'm informing you that if you don't accept it, then Xu Xinzhu will not only not get the mental damages I give her, but will also be blacklisted by the entire Internet."

He didn't know why she was so stubborn.

Xu Xinzhu is not her relative. There are artists like him everywhere and there is nothing special about him.

Why couldn't she take a step back? Wouldn't it be better to give him some peace of mind? Why did she have to push him so hard? Could she care about his situation?

He couldn't just sit back and do nothing about Xia Shu's affairs.

Lin Qingran slowly raised her eyelids and stared at him with a strong and cold look, "If you dare to attack our artists, I will fight you to the end."

She was so aggressive that Gu Yichen clenched his palms, his fingertips turning white from the force. "Okay, since you won't give in at all, let's wait and see."

Lin Qingran said calmly, "Okay."

Gu Yichen glanced at her with a sullen look, and finally strode away angrily.

After coming out of Ran Yi and returning to the car, Gu Yichen tugged at his tie in annoyance.

I came to see Lin Qingran today, and originally wanted to ask her what she thought about his proposal to marry him.

But looking at her attitude, he knew without hesitation that she would definitely ridicule him rudely again and would not consider his proposal seriously at all.

The phone rings.

It was the PR manager who called.

Gu Yichen picked up the phone with a flick of his finger.

"Hello, Mr. Gu?"

"I have already written a clarification post according to the clarification direction you mentioned."

"They say that the person in the photo is not Miss Xia and that someone is maliciously spreading rumors. However, with such a lack of strong evidence, can netizens believe it?"

Gu Yichen originally wanted to issue a clarification first, denying that the person in the photo was Xia Shu, and then issue a lawyer's letter to warn those netizens who spread the photos and spread rumors.

When netizens became emotional, they quietly bought negative articles to direct the criticism towards Xu Xinzhu, letting everyone know that Xu Xinzhu was the heroine in the photo.

Xia Shu has the support of fans, and the company can then forge some evidence such as recordings to completely put the dirty water on Xu Xinzhu.

But now Lin Qingran disagrees.

Gu Yichen slid his fingertips across the screen impatiently, his eyelashes drooping.

In fact, he could just go all out and do what he thinks is right.

The reason why he went to find Xia Shu and proposed compensation to Xu Xinzhu was entirely for Lin Qingran's sake. After all, Xu Xinzhu was an artist of Lin Qingran's company, and he didn't want Lin Qingran to have any opinions about him because of this matter.

He now tries to avoid conflicts with Lin Qingran as much as possible.

"Mr. Gu?" The person on the other end of the phone was already a little anxious. "How can we convince netizens that the photo is not of Miss Xia?"

Gu Yichen pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and sighed deeply, "Let's not issue a clarification yet."

After that, he hung up the phone.

He stared out the window, his eyes dim.

He actually began to consider Lin Qingran's feelings and couldn't bear to do anything to hurt her.

This has never happened before.

-

After Gu Yichen left, Xia Shu was worried all night.

She did not wait for Gu Yichen's reply, nor did she know what the result of his visit to Lin Qingran was.

However, those photos are still high on the trending searches, and there is no sign of the popularity decreasing.

Before going to bed, she tried to call Cai Guoxiong again to ask him what he meant. It would have been fine if he had shown those photos to Gu Yichen, but he actually posted her photos online.

He is looking for death!

The call that I thought would not go through was unexpectedly connected.

"Can you please stop calling me? I really didn't post those photos online!"

Cai Guoxiong's annoyed and helpless voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Don't call me! I didn't know it would turn out like this! Hang up, no more words, I really have to go..."

"Cai Guoxiong!"

Xia Shu stood up from the sofa in a flash.

Her eyes widened. "Don't hang up. Tell me what you mean. What's going on with the photos on the Internet?"

Xia Shu was a little excited and spoke very quickly, "Do you know that Gu Yichen will not let you go if you do this? I haven't divorced Gu Yichen yet! I am the young lady of the Gu family!"

"Oh no! That's not true." Cai Guoxiong explained, "It really wasn't me! It was the Lin family's daughter who posted your photo online. It was the Lin family's daughter!"

Xia Shu was stunned when she heard this, "You mean... Lin Qingran?"

"Yes, she came to me and said I have information about you. I wondered what she meant by that. Anyway, I didn't want to say anything more to her, but she gave me too much. It was enough for me to pay off my gambling debts and live a carefree life abroad for the rest of my life. So I sent the photo to her..."

"I never thought she would just post the photo online. I swear I had no idea she would do that..."
