Looking at the words filling the screen, Gu Xiaoai clenched the mouse in her hand, her finger bones turned white and her fingertips trembled slightly...
Just like in a nightmare, those disgusted eyes and those mouths keep talking, keep talking...
Gu Xiaoai closed the web page in excitement. The chat box that popped up was someone from the studio asking her how to deal with the box office drop.
How to deal with it? She doesn’t know...
Besides watching the box office drop, what else could she do? She could only watch the crowd talking, she couldn't stop it...
"Knock knock——"
There was a knock on the study door.
The child's mother stood at the door and said respectfully, "Madam, the young master's phone number is from England."
Li Juexi?
It’s been a long time since I talked to my elder brother and sister-in-law on the phone.
"Get me to the study."
Gu Xiaoai said, smiling at the child mother.
The child's mother smiled and nodded, and then walked out. She heard the child's mother turn around and sigh...
Gu Xiaoai sat at the desk and picked up the phone, pressed her eyebrows with one hand, tried to adjust her posture and said calmly, "Brother."
"Xiao Ai." Li Juexi's deep voice came over the phone, steady as usual, "It's your sister-in-law's birthday this month. How about coming back to England to stay for a while?"
…
Gu Xiaoai paused and said, "Brother, sister-in-law's birthday is the same as Li Juefeng's, both after the New Year."
Now, we haven’t even celebrated the New Year, so how can we celebrate our birthdays?
"The Chinese celebrate the lunar calendar."
Li Juexi didn't expect that she would remember Manwen's birthday, so he couldn't help but froze for a moment and blurted out a false explanation.
"Lunar calendar birthdays do not fall before the New Year either." Gu Xiaoai said helplessly. She had written down everyone's birthdays so there would be no mistake.
"Haha." Li Juexi laughed awkwardly, his voice still steady, "It's his blessing that the third brother married you, but he never remembers our birthdays. It's your sister-in-law who misses you, so you come to England to stay with her.
?”
Li Juexi had only one purpose, to let her go to England.
"Even you guys know about it?" Gu Xiaoai smiled bitterly. The bed photos from a few years ago actually caused such a big uproar. "Did even the E.S. Consortium be affected?"
Then she would really embarrass the Li family.
The Li family consortium has never had such a scandal in the hands of Mr. Li...
"Europe is more open than China. Those little bells and whistles are nothing. Of course they won't affect the consortium." Li Juexi sighed, "Manwen doesn't want you to stand in a land of right and wrong in China. Anyway, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. You and Len
Let's go back to England together so we can avoid those rumors."
"If I leave, don't I let Li Juefeng face these moral trials alone?" Gu Xiaoai said bitterly.
She didn't want to escape this alone.
"He deserves some punishment." Li Juexi chuckled, "It sounds like the gossip didn't make your relationship worse, so I'm relieved. Then you can come to the UK together, and even develop here. The consortium is originally
For you and your husband."
"I don't want to escape, maybe Li Juefeng... doesn't want to escape either."
Can you avoid the limelight by going abroad? Sooner or later they will come back.
Yes... don't run away.
She shouldn't run away any longer.
An idea of risking everything flashed in Gu Xiaoai's mind.
"Then what can you do now? Even if you hold a press conference to clarify, no matter how many explanations you give, it will only become darker and darker," Li Juexi said.
"That's better than doing nothing." Gu Xiaoai said, "Thank you, brother, I decided to hold a press conference."
