Chapter 239: How unrestrained
“Him…”
Wu Wen looked up at Fang Mu and pursed his lips before saying, “I’ve only heard some rumors about him.”
“Tell me?”
“Didn’t an idol drama promote a technology product for our company last year? I treated the director of that drama and the main lead to a meal. The director got drunk and told me some rumors about Cheng Ke.”
Everyone pricked up their ears.
No one disliked gossip.
Wang Kai was an impatient person. After all, he was still young, so he stood up and asked Wu Wen, “Brother Wen, what rumors did you hear? Anyway, he’s been dead for many years. It’s fine if you tell us.”
“Yes.” Wu Wen occasionally looked at other people’s cards and unhurriedly said, “I heard that when he was the CEO of that entertainment company, Cheng Ke led the way to sleep with female celebrities in the company. Some good-looking male celebrities were also involved in that.”
“Tsk! What kind of news is this?” Wang Kai seemed to think not much of it. He said, “Many bosses are like this. Not to mention an entertainment company, even in those seemingly high-end enterprises, don’t many bosses sleep with beautiful employees and secretaries?”
Someone joked, “Have you slept with your employees before?”
Wang Kai spat. “I’m not interested in this.”
Wu Wen smiled as well. “Of course, that’s not all I’ve heard.”
“Hmm?” Liang Qiwen gave Wu Wen a curious look. “What else?”
Wu Wen sat upright and lowered his voice. He said, “Many female celebrities in his company were celebrities on the surface, but they were secretly sent to other companies to be the mistress of their presidents to earn money.”
“D*mn! What a pimp!”
Some people called Cheng Ke shameless, but most people were still used to it.
Fang Mu quietly listened without interrupting.
Another round ended. This time, Liang Qiwen won.
Liang Qiwen touched Fang Mu’s arm and said, “Ah Mu, are you distracted? Why are you following such a lousy game?”
Fang Mu shook his head. “I’m thinking about something.”
Wu Wen looked as if he hadn’t heard their conversation. He shook his head and gave them a look that said, “You’re still too young.” He then said, “That’s not all I’m going to say.”
“Oh, what else?” Wang Kai was no longer interested in the rumors he was talking about.
“That would be a crime to say.” Wu Wen’s face darkened. He said in disgust, “Cheng Ke was a pedophile.”
The room instantly became silent.
Following that, someone opened his mouth to curse Cheng Ke. “He’s really fu*king inhumane. Not only did he fool around with women and men, he even loved children!”
“Holy shit! No wonder his company went bankrupt.”
“I think he died in a boat sinking into the water? He died with the whereabouts of his corpse unknown. He’s really lucky.”
Liang Qiwen frowned as well. “He’s the scum of society.” Liang Qiwen then looked over at Fang Mu and was stunned to see his gloomy expression. “Ah Mu, what’s wrong?”
Fang Mu snorted and said, “Disgusting!”
“That’s right. It’s disgusting!” Wang Kai agreed.
Wu Wen could not help but laugh when he saw everyone’s reaction. “That’s why I said that the people in that circle are really…” He shook his head as if he could not find any words to describe Cheng Ke. In the end, he softly sighed. “Those poor children.”
At this point, someone interrupted him, and the discussion shifted to another topic.
Once the clock struck eleven, Wu Wen got up, grabbed his suit jacket, and said to everyone, “There’s a gate in my house. If I don’t get home by midnight, there will be domestic violence…” Wu Wen was married. When he said that, some people scolded him for being a henpecked husband, but most expressed their understanding of his situation.
“Let’s go, let’s go.”
Fang Mu and Liang Qiwen stood up as well.
The two of them walked out of the club with their partners. In the elevator, Liang Qiwen realized that Fang Mu’s face was filled with darkness as if a storm was about to descend. He thought about who had provoked Fang Mu tonight. After he gave it some thought, an idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Cheng He Films…
Although it was rarely mentioned now, Liang Qiwen knew that Fang Mu was not from the Fang family.
Fang Mu’s mother was an actress called Mu Chen.
Mu Chen…
Wasn’t that a female celebrity under Cheng He Films?
No wonder Ah Mu looks so upset. Cheng Ke was his mother’s superior. Mu Chen was good-looking. With Cheng Ke’s personality, how could he let go of the delicate Mu Chen?
After thinking about this, Liang Qiwen chose to play dumb and did not ask Fang Mu more questions.
The two of them walked out of the elevator in silence. Their cars were not parked together. When they separated, Liang Qiwen patted Fang Mu’s shoulder and said with a smile, “I have to go home. People are waiting for me at home.” Thinking of Fang Mu’s family situation, Liang Qiwen continued, “Your Fang Shan is also at home alone. You should go back early too.”
“Yeah.”
The two of them separated and got into their respective cars.
Fang Mu sat in the car without turning on the lights.
Only a few street lights were lit in the underground parking lot. Fang Mu sat in the driver’s seat. The white light shone on half of his face, making it look even darker and colder.
Did Wu Wen suddenly mention Cheng Ke on purpose or not?
Fang Mu lit a cigarette and silently smoked. His eyes flickered.
***
The next day, Cheng Ke’s ugly rumors spread wider and wider. Soon, almost everyone knew about him.
Cheng Ke was already “dead.” Logically speaking, these old matters would not be talked about by others all the time. However, it was strange that not only did Cheng Ke’s matter remain alive, but it even became more and more popular. One day, someone on Weibo dug up the evil deeds Cheng Ke had done when he was alive.
The article described those celebrities who had an affair with Cheng Ke in detail. At that moment, all the celebrities who were mentioned in the article were affected and felt threatened.
Even Mu Chen, who had passed away more than ten years ago, was found in photos of her and Cheng Ke going to all kinds of places in their early years. In the photos, the two of them were intimate. Everyone could see that something was fishy about them.
Fang Mu gloomily looked at the article on Weibo.
Anger and hatred flashed in his eyes.
He took out his phone and called.
The call was picked up, and a middle-aged man’s voice came from the other end.
“Hello, is this Mr. Chen?” This Mr. Chen was the Weibo user who had written the article about Cheng Ke’s sins.
Mr. Chen was clearly surprised. “Yes, I am. May I know who you are…”
“I’m Fang Mu. Mr. Chen, can you remove the article you wrote?” Fang Mu held a fountain pen in his hand and poked the face of a man in the magazine. “I’m willing to pay 200,000 yuan. Look…”
Ten minutes later, the article was deleted by the author for unknown reasons.
After that, Mr. Chen logged into Weibo and wrote: “They were just rumors. I don’t know if they were true. Don’t take them seriously. Just treat them as entertainment.”
Seeing this, the female and male celebrities who were called out heaved sighs of relief.
However, things did not calm down because of this.
Although the article was deleted, soon, a second and a third article about Cheng Ke popped up. They appeared like bamboo shoots after the rain.
On the 23rd, the rumors changed again.
This time, the writer was no longer writing stories about Cheng Ke and those celebrities. For the first time, he revealed Cheng Ke’s perverted hobby of being a pedophile. In the article, the writer also explained how Cheng Ke went to the underground boxing ring to buy beautiful children for excitement.
This article caused a stir.
There was no lack of physical transactions in the entertainment industry. It was a power transaction for celebrities to sleep with Cheng Ke. They felt it was fair, sleeping with someone to get resources. Although everyone despised and scoffed at this, it was not pointed out. However, once this thing involved children, its nature changed. It became a crime.
For some reason, as this matter spread, it became about a certain celebrity. To curry favor with Cheng Ke, she had actually sent her child to be his pillow…
Bang!
Fang Mu smashed the laptop against the wall, creating a loud noise.
When the nanny, who was downstairs, heard the commotion in the study on the second floor, she was stunned. However, she quickly lowered her head and continued to do her work. She tried her best to pretend that she had not heard anything. Fang Shan, who was sleeping soundly, was also woken up by this sound.
Waww!
Waww!
The baby boy began to cry. His cries were loud and continuous.
The nanny quickly ran upstairs and carried the crying Fang Shan into her arms to comfort him.
When Fang Mu was done venting his anger, he heard Fang Shan’s cry and regained his senses. He was certain that these people on the Internet had deliberately written these words at someone’s specific instructions. They would first mention the gossip about Cheng Ke and the celebrities to attract everyone’s attention. When people did pay attention, they would then release the news about Cheng Ke being in love with children.
The person hiding in the dark had initially wanted to expose the fact that Cheng Ke was a pedophile. Then, he would dig out the underaged youths who had been bullied by Cheng Ke…
Fang Mu’s face darkened.
The other party dug a pit step by step. It was obvious that this had been planned for a long time. Fang Mu did not think that the half-dead Fang Pingjue lying on the hospital bed was capable of this.
***
At noon, Fang Yusheng and Qiao Jiusheng went to get the gown.
Wei Xin had already made all the dresses. Qiao Jiusheng tried them one by one, and they all fit her well.
Qiao Jiusheng naturally liked the gown Wei Xin had designed for her. When Fang Yusheng arrived, he realized that Wei Xin had also designed his dress for the wedding ceremony. His dress was in the same series as Qiao Jiusheng’s wedding gown.
Fang Yusheng put on a pure white gown and stood in front of the mirror. He looked at the handsome man in the glasses and felt grateful to Wei Xin.
The two million yuan was well spent.
When Qiao Jiusheng finished changing into the wedding gown and came out of the changing room with the skirt hem, Fang Yusheng could not help but hold his breath.
Other than Fang Yusheng, Wei Xin was probably the person who understood Qiao Jiusheng’s body curves the most.
The wedding dress she had designed for Qiao Jiusheng was not luxurious, but had a sexy style. The corset was tied to the chest, the tube top was wrapped around the hips. The beige gauze inside was as smooth and clean as snow. At the bottom of the wedding dress was the high-line fishtail skirt, and on the outermost layer was a rose that Wei Xin had personally sewn on it.
The rose was blooming to the limit, looking as beautiful as Qiao Jiusheng herself.
Qiao Jiusheng’s figure was arrogant to begin with. The wedding dress made her figure look even more proud and enchanting.
She looked like a charming and flirtatious mermaid.
The most outstanding thing about the wedding gown was the one-meter long lace embroidered headdress on her head.
Unlike the common lace embroidered head veil, a beautiful and unique angel was embroidered on Qiao Jiusheng’s head veil. When Qiao Jiusheng tried on the wedding gown, she had just casually tied her long hair into a round bun with a rubber band. Her fair and beautiful neck was revealed, looking slender and elegant.
Qiao Jiusheng had worn high heels. When she walked, she was especially careful, afraid that she would fall and hurt the children in her stomach.
She kept her head lowered as she walked. When she reached the middle of the room, she looked up and realized that Fang Yusheng was staring at her in a daze. Pursing her lips, she proudly blinked at him. “Bufan was right. You’re really lucky to marry a beautiful person like me.”
The moment Qiao Jiusheng spoke, she instantly broke the beauty that she had painstakingly created.
Fang Yusheng raised his eyebrows and praised her. “You look really good.”
Qiao Jiusheng was embarrassed.
She glanced at Fang Yusheng many times and was increasingly satisfied.
“Yes, you look… okay too.” With that, Qiao Jiusheng stole a glance at him.
Fang Yusheng was 1.83 meters tall. When he was wearing a suit, he was tall and upright. His hair was combed neatly behind his back, and he was neat and tidy. Under his bright forehead, his curved eyebrows hung above his green eyes. The ends of his eyes were slightly raised, and they were seductive and arrogant.
Realizing that Qiao Jiusheng was secretly glancing at him, Fang Yusheng chuckled in his heart. He did not forget to give her a charming and seductive look.
Qiao Jiusheng’s breathing paused, and she silently cursed him. D*mn demon!
Fang Yusheng walked over quickly, held Qiao Jiusheng’s face, and lowered his head to take a deep breath on her lips. “I got someone to design a new house. It’s already under construction, and we can live in it in a year. At that time, you’ll have given birth to the babies. When the time comes, you can wear this wedding dress, and we’ll go to the roof of the new house to look at the stars while doing… Think about it. Isn’t it especially exciting to do that kind of thing in an expensive and beautiful wedding dress…”
Seeing Wei Xin walk over, Qiao Jiusheng quickly covered his mouth.
“Shut up! I’ll get angry if you say anything more!”
Qiao Jiusheng glared at Fang Yusheng. How could he talk about such things that often?
How shameless!
Before Wei Xin could reach them, Fang Yusheng leaned close to Qiao Jiusheng and muttered softly, “If you think it’s inconvenient to wear a wedding dress, we can just look at the stars naked…”
Fang Yusheng was more unrestrained than the sea…
Qiao Jiusheng could not withstand it.
