93 Provocation Backfired
Gu Ming tried to persuade her patiently. “Stop fooling around. She’s your sister!”
Bei Le sneered and turned to look at Bei Shuo, her eyes filled with contempt.
Bei Shuo waved her hand. “Hey, you flatter me. I have nothing to do with the Bei Family anymore!”
Bei Le’s tears fell. “Sister, you’re so ruthless. You’re the real daughter of the Bei Family! How can you say that? If something happens to you, the entire Bei Family will be very nervous. If you lose face, will the Bei Family look good?”
“You don’t know how embarrassed Dad and Mom were when they saw those photos yesterday. They didn’t intend to benefit from you, but they were also worried that you would embarrass the Mu Family! You’re the glamorous Young Madam of the Mu Family who looks down on us. But, we will be unlucky if you angered the Mu Family. Sister, please be kind and give us a way out!”
Bei Le’s tears fell like rain, she felt wronged and sad.
Even Bei Shuo was stunned, let alone Gu Ming.
What kind of astonishing change in expression was this? What kind of logic was this?
Bei Shuo didn’t know where to start.
She muttered, “Second Senior Brother, you have such good taste! You should use her as the female lead!”
Luo Bing sneered. “Do you think I’m a rubbish station that accepts anyone?”
“Aren’t you? I saw her on your cast and crew list yesterday,” Bei Shuo said.
Luo Bing was furious.
Only Mu Ci looked at Bei Le with a cold expression. “Miss Bei is indeed sensible. You’re always thinking for the Mu Family. However, I don’t understand why Bei Shuo has embarrassed the Mu Family.”
Bei Le was delighted to hear Mu Ci’s words, but she looked worried. “Brother-in-law, don’t you know about such a big matter? Yesterday, my sister was very close to Director Luo at our filming location. Someone took many photos of them and even posted them online.”
Bei Le’s voice became softer and softer as she spoke. She even pretended to lower her head and carefully raised her eyebrows at Mu Ci.
Mu Ci’s expression was cold, but his lips curled up into an even colder smile. He glanced at Luo Bing.
Luo Bing looked terrible.
Bei Shuo was shocked. She took out her phone and started scrolling through it.
Mu Ci took her phone and said gently, “What’s there to see? Rumors stop at the next photo.”
He passed the phone to Luo Bing. “Director Luo, take a photo of the three of us and let your publicity work on it. It doesn’t matter to us, but we can’t let anyone slander Bei Shuo.”
This last sentence was the key to Luo Bingxin’s words.
Without another word, Director Luo grabbed his cell phone and pulled Bei Shuo over. Bei Shuo stood between Luo Bing and Mu Ci’s wheelchair while he took a selfie from an angle.
“Bei Shuo, smile. Let’s take another photo,” Luo Bing said.
“Alright!” Bei Shuo agreed happily. She even gestured with her hand. Mu Ci and Luo Bing’s expressions softened.
Luo Bing lowered his head and sent the photo to his phone. Then, he gave his crew an order.
Mu Ci glanced at Gu Ming and said calmly to Bei Le, “Thank you, Miss Bei, for thinking about the Mu Family. However, you’re overthinking. Bei Shuo is my wife. No one in the Mu Family dares to neglect her. Since the Bei Family has severed ties with Bei Shuo, you don’t have to worry about being implicated by her. However, if anything happens to the Bei Family, be it good or bad, it will have nothing to do with Bei Shuo anymore. Please bring these words back to your family. If Miss Bei feels that it’s inconvenient, we can make a public statement in the media.”
Mu Ci held Bei Shuo’s hand and said gently, “Are you hungry? Let’s have a meal with Second Senior Brother.”
“Alright,” Bei Shuo replied happily.
The wheelchair passed between Gu Ming and Bei Le. Mu Ci held Bei Shuo’s hand and Luo Bing naturally hugged Bei Shuo’s shoulder. The three of them walked away happily as if no one was around.
Gu Ming retracted his gaze from Bei Shuo’s back and reached out to pull Bei Le. “Let’s go home.”
Bei Le retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted. She said angrily, “Who wants to go home with you? Gu Ming, we’ve broken up! Don’t pester me anymore! I don’t like you!”
Bei Le was furious and ran away without looking back.
Gu Ming stood there. He slowly lowered his raised hand with a vexed expression. He really did not understand what Bei Le was angry about. In just a month, she seemed to have changed into a different person. She was temperamental and even talked about breaking up.
He thought for a moment and called Bei Cong. “Brother Cong, this is Gu Ming. Where are you?”
Bei Cong sounded hesitant. “Huh? Me? I’m at the company.”
Gu Ming did not doubt him. “I’ll go over to look for you. Wait for me.”
It seemed that he could only ask Bei Cong.
