The denunciation of Shen Chao in the general meeting of shareholders was all about raising it high and putting it down gently.

Shen Chao is still the cash cow of Star Culture, and holding this conference is just a formality, to let Shen Chao restrain himself a bit, and Shen Chao also has shares in his hands, so it can't be easily manipulated, and Liu Man is added to smooth things over , It passed without much twists and turns.

As for the private conversation between Shen Chao and Liu Man, it was really a private chat, except for the two parties, no one knew what they talked about.

Wang Shou only saw that Shen Chao went in and talked for a while, and then came out with a peaceful expression, while Liu Man, with his back to the door, was facing the light outside the window, without speaking, just standing quietly in his office.

On her desk, she can see an old photo in a frame. On it, three women are blowing birthday candles around a little boy. Everyone is smiling sweetly and overflowing with happiness. Yun Jieying is standing in the middle. She wore a crooked birthday hat that looked like it was knitted by a child, closed her eyes and raised the corners of her lips to make a wish on the birthday cake.

And this birthday cake is also very poorly made, the cream on the top has been pasted outside the photo, and it looks like it was made by a layman.

But when Yun Jieying put her hands together to pray and make a wish, in the photo, the smile on her face was so real and so satisfying.

Liu Man said softly: "Shen Chao, close the door for me when I leave."

Seeing that the two of them chatted so quickly and came out, Wang Shou also stepped forward in a little surprise: "You and Liu Dong are finished chatting?"

Shen Chao nodded slightly: "It's over."

Wang Shou asked, "What did you talk about?"

"UK and Du Mu." Shen Chao looked across the office door, as if he was looking through the willow vines behind the door, "...it's almost over."

……

That night, authorities received a decade-long whistleblower letter about what happened in the UK.

Some have evidence, some don't, but most give vague information.

The only conclusive evidence is about the persecution of an artist named Yun Jieying.

The letter narrated that after Yun Jieying married Du Taki and in the years before her death, Du Taki intentionally let other people sexually harass Yun Jieying, and even raped her.

The person who wrote this letter described it as - "Du Taki fell in love with Yun Jieying at first sight because of a perverted movie "Xiao Lan". A woman like Xiaolan came to satisfy the ugly desire in his mind, so he contacted Ma Dong, that is, the famous director, to train Yun Jieying, train Yun Jieying, torture Yun Jieying, let Yun Jieying slowly turned into the Xiaolan he imagined..."

"And Du Taki, a disgusting scumbag, even made a pretense that he is an open-minded person who wants to pursue an open marriage, and also asked Yun Jieying to cooperate with him and do some related psychological training. Forcing her to undergo the training and adaptation of a so-called open marriage that liberates her mind..."

Along with the e-mail of the whistleblower came a copy of an old, genuine letter in the mail.

This mailed letter was Yun Jieying's last letter, or a suicide note, and it was also the most definite evidence, which recorded word by word what she experienced before her death.

This last letter made the well-informed staff of the reporting department feel a little creepy, and felt pity for Yun Jieying, a poor woman.

Who hasn't watched Yun Jieying's play?

But who would have expected that Yun Jieying, a pure beauty, would hide so many dirty things in her final death?

The author of the last whistleblower letter wrote - "I have had this letter for a long time, but I have never thought of making it public, nor did I want to use her suffering as a weapon to get her justice. For Yun Jieying, it's not fair, and it's another injury to her..."

"...If someone hadn't come to me and assured me categorically that these things were reported to you under the real-name system, you would definitely investigate seriously and give Yun Jieying justice. I would never have given this letter to anyone. , including her son..."

"You can publicly say that I reported the UK, but I hope you will not publish any content of this letter..."

The final signature of the report letter is [Guan Qianqian], and a copy of the ID card is attached.

The photo of Guan Qianqian's ID card should be from many years ago. The photo of Guan Qianqian on it looks much younger, far less charming than now, but like a female college student who just left society, with a bit of youthfulness.

It was exactly the same as in the birthday photo on Liu Man's desk, Guan Qianqian looked at Yun Jieying who was blowing out candles with bright eyes and smiling, celebrating her birthday.

Beautiful, youthful and flawless, the flickering candlelight illuminates Guan Qianqian's smiling cheek, and Yun Jieying who closes her eyes and blows out candles is reflected in her eyes.

Guan Qianqian softly asked her idol and goddess, and asked her, Jieying, what is your birthday wish?

Yun Jieying smiled like a flower, her eyebrows curved like crescent moons, she nodded lightly and earnestly, and said that she hoped that you and Xiaomu would be happy forever, forever, and that I could get a queen.

Guan Qianqian raised her innocent smile admiringly and confidently, she said, Jieying, you are so good, you can definitely do it.

...

At the same time, Star Culture cooperated and started to build momentum.

Liu Man made a complete commercial plan to snipe the UK. Although it was a bit risky, when the UK was on the cusp of being condemned, it was not impossible to fish in troubled waters and give it a try.

The flow of funds, the war of public opinion, and contacts with some celebrities in the UK are all undercurrents surging in an orderly manner.

Su Xuan didn't care about the situation that was deliberately stirred up on the Internet. He received a text message from Comrade Su Guoqiang, which was his father's usual style.

—— [The matter is settled, the report letter has been sent up, don't call me again, annoying]

Su Xuan thought about it, if he didn't call, he should send a text message——[I'm sorry, Dad]

Su Guoqiang: [Don't send me text messages either, it's not for you or for the people, don't send them, it's annoying! 】

This time, an exclamation point was added after the annoying, it seemed that it was really annoying, Su Xuan withdrew his hand on the phone keyboard, gave up and sent back a thank you.

After a while, Su Guoqiang's text message came again in a threatening manner—[Why, don't you even deserve a thank you for doing something for you? 】

Su Xuan: "..."

Su Xuan honestly sent a text message - [Thank you, thank you. 】

After he lowered his head to appease his duplicity tool old father, Liu Pangpang pushed open the door of the ward and walked in. He had just gone out to buy dinner for Su Xuan, and now he not only brought back the meal, but also brought back a full stomach. complex emotions.

Liu Pangpang sighed melancholy: "Su Xuan, it's over!"

Su Xuan looked up at Liu Pangpang, who was holding a lunch box, and was taken aback by Liu Pangpang's expression as if he was about to say a death notice, and said, "Why, you poisoned my meal?"

"..." Fatty Liu put down the lunch box speechlessly, and said, "What a mess, you can kill yourself, so do you still need me to waste poison on you?"

Just as Su Xuan was about to reach out for the lunch box, Liu Pangpang slapped him angrily: "Listen to me first."

Su Xuan withdrew his hand resentfully, and asked eagerly, "What's the matter? I'm hungry, can I talk while eating? There must be chicken legs in this lunch box, I can smell it."

"...Are you really an artist? Other male artists don't eat dinner very much." Liu Pangpang felt relieved by Su Xuan's fuss, and glared at him, "Only you, a box lunch is not enough for you. "

Su Xuan is shameless: "My boyfriend is still growing, and it consumes my energy. It's normal for me to eat a lot."

"Your boyfriend's body has nothing to do with how much you eat..." Liu Pangpang's words were gradually stopped by Su Xuan's innocent eyes, and he fucked expressionlessly.

It took him about 3 minutes to sort out Su Xuan's logic, and he couldn't help being stunned by this man's shamelessness and driving skills. Now, the complex emotions and hesitation in Liu Pangpang's heart were all pretended to be unintentional by Su Xuan. This high-speed train is messed up.

Liu Pangpang didn't think about how to talk to Su Xuan about this matter at first, but now he felt that in front of Su Xuan, these things seemed to be no big deal.

It may not be as important as a box with chicken legs and lunch.

Liu Pangpang sat down and paused: "Su Xuan, Du Mu is awake."

Su Xuan paused when he opened the lunch box, and then continued to open it as if nothing had happened: "Are you awake?"

"Actually, Du Mu should have woken up a long time ago, but he kept pretending to be asleep, but he just made a request with the doctor in charge of the bed." Liu Pangpang looked at Su Xuan, "Du Mu said that he wanted to see you and chat with you About Shen Chao."

Su Xuan bit the chicken leg and widened his eyes, he was finally willing to let go and said: "Does he want to see me?"

"Yes." Liu Pangpang nodded, he hesitated for a moment, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and transferred a photo to Su Xuan, "After he said to show you this, you will consider whether to talk to him We talked about it."

This photo was obviously taken by Liu Pangpang on someone else's mobile phone. The pixels are very blurry, but the characters on it can still be seen clearly.

This is a group photo of five people. It looks a bit old, and one side of the group photo has been torn off.

Standing at the front are two little boys, one on the left and the other on the right. They all look lonely and silent. One is wearing shorts and small leather shoes, with a pair of numb peach blossom eyes, and the tail of his hair is a little yellow. It looks like a bad business. The traces of Du Mu's appearance can be clearly seen.

One is wearing overalls, with an indifferent expression on his face, and looks a little taller than the other little boy. The woman standing by his hand can be seen to be Yun Jieying. This little boy has no emotion on his face. Standing next to Yun Jieying, there is a kind of maturity and indifference that does not match her age, like an excellent and exquisite life-size doll.

Although the characters on the photo looked a little distorted due to the age, like old photo props deliberately made in a movie, Su Xuan still recognized that the little boy standing on the right was his Shen Chao.

Among the three adults behind the two little boys, Yun Jieying's face was pale and timid, she looked very depressed and haggard, while Shen Mengshu standing in the middle looked embarrassed, pale and dejected, they stood side by side on each other. They both lowered their eyes slightly and lowered their heads, their faces had a strange, indescribably similar and fragile feeling, they looked like a pair of sisters in distress.

Only a handsome middle-aged man knelt on one knee and rubbed Shen Chao's head with a friendly smile. He was well-dressed and in high spirits. The smell of a business elite could almost be smelled through the photo. This person who looks like a walking dead is completely different.

This person...is Du Taki.

Su Xuan stared at the broken photo on the screen of Liu Pangpang's mobile phone for a while, swallowed a mouthful of food, and pressed Liu Pangpang's mobile phone.

He put down the lunch box, pondered for a while, then raised his head and said to Liu Pangpang, "Go find a wheelchair and push me to Du Mu's ward."

"I'm going to talk to Dumu."

Fatty Liu sighed: "I'll find you a wheelchair, just wait a moment."

He knew that Su Xuan would definitely go.

Du Mu lived in the single ward opposite Su Xuan. Liu Pangpang pushed Su Xuan to the door of Du Mu's ward. He reached out and knocked, and heard Du Mu's hoarse voice: "Su Xuan can come in alone."

Su Xuan turned his head and looked at Liu Pangpang. Liu Pangpang shook his head in disapproval. Seeing Du Mu's mental illness alone, Su Xuan might have something messed up. Su Xuan raised his phone and said in a low voice: "I'm driving In the call state, I will also record it. In the hospital, his hands and feet are still tied, and the hospital is also under surveillance, so Du Mu dare not do anything to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Pangpang hesitated for a few seconds, and pointed to his mobile phone: "Well, if you need anything, just call, and I will come in."

Su Xuan sat on the wheelchair and pushed open the door of Du Mu's ward.

Du Mu leaned on the bed that was shaken as if he had no bones, and when he heard the sound of the door being opened, he just rolled his eyes and glanced at Su Xuan lightly. His body was bound by a black rubber band on the bed and could not move.

Su Xuan heard that this was because Du Mu had a history of hurting others and struggling to resist treatment, so the nurse tied Du Mu up to prevent him from having an accident or causing others to have an accident.

Du Mu narrowed his eyes and stared at Su Xuan for a while, then slowly straightened his head, and the corner of his mouth slowly opened a gap that was too big, as if he was smiling evilly at Su Xuan, or just making a welcome gesture. expression.

"Mr. Su, you are here." Du Mu finally adjusted his facial features into a normal smile. He seemed to want to raise his hand in a gesture of asking to sit, but just as he raised his hand a little, it was caught by the rubber band, " I originally asked the nurse to prepare a chair for you to sit in..."

His gaze wandered over the legs of Su Xuan who was sitting in a wheelchair, and Du Mu sighed regretfully: "It seems that it won't be needed."

Su Xuan was not affected by Du Mu's yin and yang, and asked: "You came to me, do you want to talk to me about Shen Chao?"

Du Mu sat up slightly. He looked at Su Xuan with an interesting attitude, as if he was interrogating and forcing a prisoner, and asked a question unhurriedly: "Have you seen Shen Chao's mother?"

Su Xuan had met Shen Mengshu, a very gentle woman who spoke and acted well, but her concept of marriage and relationship was completely different from Su Xuan's.

Su Xuanhui: "I have seen it."

Du Mu laughed softly: "Then have you met Shen Chao's father?"

Su Xuan was taken aback for a moment, he frowned and recalled carefully, and searched the memory in his mind with difficulty, there was indeed none.

He has never heard anything about Shen Chao talking about his father, even Shen Chao's surname is Sui's mother's surname, and he can't find any information related to Shen Chao's father on the encyclopedia, only what Andy showed him In that thick document, Su Xuan found out with difficulty that Shen Chao's parents separated when he was very young. After that, Shen Chao started several years of psychological counseling.

However, Shen Mengshu and Shen Chao's father lived apart until they were completely divorced.

When he was a teenager, Shen Chao returned to China. Because of his own refusal and geographical reasons, Andy's psychological counseling for him was overwhelmed and insufficient, and he started intermittently. Later, Shen Chao unilaterally interrupted all the treatments .

Andy said that she felt that Shen Chao's mental state was very dangerous during that time, but Shen Chao's expression was indeed a kind of strange to the extreme calm, which once made her think that there was nothing wrong with this person, even after entering the entertainment industry, Shen Chao Stronger than normal people's ability to withstand stress.

It's not that Su Xuan didn't want to ask about Shen Chao's father's situation in the past, but this kind of thing requires two-way frankness. He is not ready yet how to explain his somewhat peculiar family environment, although he wants to know about Shen Chao's situation. , but it is not always good to ask too directly.

The step of letting Shen Chao live in his own home was already steep enough, and they went deep into each other's family environment...

Su Xuan felt that the relationship between him and Shen Chao hadn't reached the point where he could discuss this step without any grievances.

But it is obvious that someone has bothered to advance to the link of [Su Xuan meets Shen Chao's parents].

Du Mu's peachy eyes caressed Su Xuan's cheek passionately, and he took out a photo from the cabinet next to the hospital bed. This photo was obviously the one he showed Su Xuan before.

But it's a little more complete than that one.

There is an extra person in this photo, or the corner that was torn off from this photo has been pasted back.

It turned out that the photo was originally a group photo of six people, and there was a man standing on the far side, which was torn off by someone. It was the photo of five people in a high-browed group that Su Xuan had just seen on Liu Pangpang's phone.

But the one in Du Mu's hand, the man who was torn off was pasted back with white tape.

Standing in the corner, the man with half-cut hairstyle is pushing his glasses, and Shen Chao's shadow can be vaguely seen in his brows. His smile is very shallow, and his expression is a little listless and compromised. Standing on the far left, there is a long distance between Shen Mengshu and Shen Chao. A long strip of white tape seemed to be forcibly torn out of the originally complete family of three.

Without Du Mu's introduction, Su Xuan also knew that this was one of Shen Chao's parents whom he had never met, Shen Chao's father.

"This is Shen Chao's father." Du Mu said, "You must be curious why their family took this kind of intimate photo with our family, right?"

He couldn't restrain himself, looked at Su Xuan lowly as if excited, and chuckled hoarsely twice.

Du Mu turned the photo like a pen cap, he raised his jaw slightly to look at Su Xuan, smiled thoughtfully, and said quickly: "Du Long, that's mine." Father, he was overwhelmed by Shen Chao's mother, Shen Mengshu's open concept of marriage. He just heard Shen Mengshu say a few words about related concepts at the banquet, so he couldn't wait to come to the door and ask how to do it. Let your family members cooperate with you to enter this open marriage."

"He wants Shen Mengshu to give it to Yun, Yun..." Du Mumu's voice faltered a few times, his breathing gradually became rapid, he clicked his tongue a few times irritably, but in the end he couldn't say the name, but used Refers to the pronoun, "...Du Long asked Shen Mengshu to give her a psychological counseling plan, so that Shen Mengshu can turn her into a woman who can accept an open marriage."

"Du Taki didn't do this to make himself happy." Du Mu chuckled, his lips moved slowly, and said, "It's to turn her into the "Xiaolan" that Du Taki fell in love with at first sight, Du Taki hopes to see her loose, hopes to see her wandering among more men."

"Shen Mengshu said that she couldn't make Yun...she became like this, so Du Long came up with a...unbelievable plan, and forced everyone to carry out this plan."

Du Mu got stuck when he said Yun Jieying's name again, but soon, as if he finally couldn't restrain himself, he laughed nervously. He laughed a little nervously, but his eyes kept sticking to Su Xuan. It seemed that he was expecting the expression change he wanted to see on Su Xuan's face.

Du Mu pointed sideways at the man who had been torn off from the photo, and pointed twice carelessly: "Du Taki proposed a family sharing plan, that is, an integrated and open marriage of two families, where everyone shares each other's family , the other party's wife is also my wife, and the other party's husband is my husband..."

The smile on the corner of Du Mu's mouth grew wider and wider, and his tone of voice showed a kind of blatant malice. He leaned down slightly and stared at Su Xuan: "—the other party's son is also his own son. You didn't expect it, did you Su Xuan?" , I used to call Shen Chao brother, Du Long liked him more than my own son, always said that Shen Chao resembled him."

Su Xuan's breathing was so soft that he almost didn't have any sound. He looked at the photo with a blank mind, and he finally realized what kind of photo it was.

——This is a family portrait under Du Taki's deformed plan.

Du Mu laughed dumbly: "Why did Liu Man choose Shen Chao in the bet? Is it really because of Shen Chao's ability and popularity? Or is it because Du Taki might show mercy to Shen Chao, his favorite son? After all I used to be in a…”

Su Xuan interrupted Du Mu: "Enough!"

His expression froze for a moment, and Su Xuan subconsciously covered the phone that was in the call to make sure that no sound was recorded.

Du Mu's laughter grew louder: "Su Xuan, do you really know what kind of person you are with?"

"Living in this family of six people, I was so scared that I cried all day long. Shen Chao didn't react at all. He wouldn't be surprised to see his parents with others. I asked him why he wasn't surprised, you know How did he answer me?" Du Mu's eyes were deep and dark, like an old lens covered with dust, "He told me that there is no way for a person to like only one person."

"He and Du Long can understand each other, do you know Su Xuan?"
