Gu Yusheng furrowed his brow to the extent that his face was visibly displeased.

Xiaowang quickly said, “Only slightly. It doesn’t affect the bigger picture.”

Gu Yusheng did not respond.

Thinking that the conversation was over, Xiaowang did not think too much about it and focused on driving.

But after some time, Gu Yusheng asked, “Are you sure that it doesn’t affect the bigger picture?”

Now Xiaowang regretted his answer, because it seemed to have slightly unnerved Gu Yusheng. Thinking that he must have been mistaken, Xiaowang shook his head furiously and vouched, “I’m sure. Master Gu, your behavior today was great...”

After a brief pause, Xiaowang resumed, saying, “If I were Secretary Qin, I would be so thrilled that I would want to marry you right away.”

When he heard the first half of Xiaowang’s sentence, Gu Yusheng’s mood became slightly better. But upon hearing the second half, a look of annoyance flashed across his face. Sweeping one look of disdain at Xiaowang, he said, “You wish!”

Xiaowang felt aggrieved, but he did not dare to complain.

The car was silent for some time before Gu Yusheng spoke again. He appeared to be in great spirits and his tone was noticeably calmer. “Oh right, you can carry out the second half of the task that I assigned to you the other day.”

Xiaowang knew what Gu Yusheng was referring to and, while he was still bothered by what Gu Yusheng had said to him earlier, he nodded his head right away and replied, “Got it, Master Gu.”

Liang Doukou had previously felt that she was doing well but, in the past few days, her luck had been downright rotten. Nothing went well regardless of what she did.

She had spent an enormous amount of money to bribe the disciplinary master of Hangzhou’s H University, successfully managing to have Qin Jiayan accused of cheating. Things had started out smoothly, and she had managed to harass Qin Zhi’ai through much effort. And she had waited gleefully for the video of Qin Zhi’ai slapping her own face but, after waiting for a long time, the result she got was that Gu Yusheng had appeared at H University. Not only did he help to resolve the issue with Qin Jiayan, but he also managed to have the disciplinary master fired.

Upon hearing this news, Liang Doukou was consumed by rage and hatred. Not only did she hurl verbal abuse at her personal assistant, she even smashed her new cell phone that she’d only had for two days.

At the peak of Liang Doukou’s fury, Zhou Jing came into her office with yet more troubling news.

Director Lin, who had produced numerous blockbuster movies, was preparing for a new film. In the entertainment industry, everyone was dying to work with him, and Liang Doukou was no exception.

Recently, she had been eyeing Director Lin’s movie and, the previous week, she had even met with him. Director Lin was also interested in Liang Doukou and made a clear declaration that he would give her priority in consideration for the role of the female lead.

She had always felt that she would one day be chosen as Director Lin’s female lead; however, when the casting results were announced internally, her old acquaintance Lin Yi was given the part.

Under the pressure of her rocky relationship and career, the enraged Liang Doukou smashed almost everything she could get her hands on.

Zhou Jing suppressed her emotions. She had just gone through great trouble try to ruin Gu Yusheng’s and Qin Zhi’ai’s relationship, and now she had to deal with this crisis.

After the movie is released, Lin Yi will probably be more famous than before and even more so than Liang Doukou.

But if Liang Doukou could get this part in Director Lin’s movie, it would be a golden opportunity for a comeback?

Because Zhou Jing’s interests depended on Liang Doukou’s success, Zhou Jing would never stand by and watch Lin Yi overshadow Liang Doukou. Naturally, she would have to find ways to turn the tables before Director Lin make the formal announcement for his female lead.
