A short but intense outburst, and the information revealed was nothing short of explosive. The onlookers were stunned, their curiosity more than satiated.
Mr. Chu had been married to Xia Zhu for two years? Was Ms. Zhao really secretly married to Mr. Chu? And Ms. Zhao might even be the third party? Zhao Yanan felt her temples throb as she saw three Mercedes from the advertising company neatly parked in the company parking lot. Without worrying about any "emergency PR" for herself, she decisively said, "Security, clear out any unrelated personnel!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, a white Land Rover coincidentally parked by the roadside.
Chu Yuxuan raised an eyebrow and muttered, "Oh? Things are getting even more interesting."
His nonchalant attitude almost made Zhao Yanan spit blood in anger. With a cold face, she said, "Mr. Chu, please handle your personal matters elsewhere and don't disrupt the company!" Chu Yuxuan glanced at the three Mercedes, clicking his tongue and said, "Hmm… I'm afraid it's a bit late for that."
Xia Zhu, being held by two security guards, struggled madly, crying out repeatedly, "Let me go! I can walk by myself! I'll never come back to this lousy company, even if you beg me! Let me go!"
At the same time, two people stepped out of the white Land Rover—Gao Ning and Xia's mother.
Since Xia Zhu found out that Wang Long had helped her because of Chu Yuxuan, she had cut off all contact with Gao Ning. Even when Gao Ning humbly, even pathetically, begged her time and again, she refused to see him.
It wasn't that she despised Gao Ning for not being as good as Chu Yuxuan; she just couldn't stand the deceit.
However, Xia's mother still treated Gao Ning kindly. After all, in her eyes, Gao Ning was a genuine, rare catch, while her opinion of Chu Yuxuan was still based on Gao Ning's earlier description of him as a "pretty boy."
Earlier today, after lunch, Xia Zhu finally managed to get through to Wang Long on the phone. In fact, she had been calling him every day since New Year's Day, but he hadn't picked up.
Today, she finally got through, intending to wish him a happy new year and ask when the crew planned to start shooting. But instead, she unexpectedly heard something from Wang Long that drove her mad.
In a sense, Wang Long was her emotional anchor. Now that anchor had broken and shattered into pieces. How could she not go crazy?
After a tearful breakdown at home, she contacted her agent, saying she wanted to go to the company to vent her anger, ready to burn all bridges.
When Xia's mother heard this, fearing her daughter would be bullied, she quickly contacted Gao Ning, and they hurried to support her.
Now, seeing the company's security guards treating her celebrity daughter so rudely, this typically sharp-tongued, unreasonable old woman couldn't hold back any longer.
She rushed up to the company entrance, grabbed Chu Yuxuan by the collar, and started shouting, "You freeloader! You think you've got some nerve now, huh? Our Xia Zhu supported you for two years, and not only are you ungrateful, but you also dare to bully her?! You're nothing but an ungrateful wolf! Pah!"
Chu Yuxuan sidestepped to avoid the spit attack, a look of helplessness crossing his calm face.
Seeing this, the company's staff hurriedly rushed forward, surrounding Xia's mother.
Zhao Yanan closed her eyes for a moment, then said to the head of security, "If they're not gone in a minute, you can resign yourself!"
With that, she adjusted her breathing and stepped toward the advertising company's president.
"Mr. Jin, I apologize for the scene... Let me take you into the company first."
Mr. Jin, who was over forty and always refined, smiled faintly and waved his hand. "It's alright, I see your Mr. Chu is quite busy. I'm not in a hurry; I'll wait until he's done."
Zhao Yanan was helpless. She stood beside Mr. Jin with her arms crossed, watching the scene with a mix of shame and anger.
But seeing that shameless man with such a calm and detached expression, as if none of this concerned him, and even with a smile on his face? Zhao Yanan's anger flared! Truly, the man was shameless, completely unaware of what it means to lose face!
Xia Zhu's agent, seeing the chaos, hesitated for a long time before finally mustering up the courage to rush toward Xia Zhu, holding her tightly, "Let go of her! We'll leave ourselves!"
Gao Ning stood not far away, his face filled with hesitation and unease.
He couldn't bear to see Xia Zhu in such a sorry state, but… he also didn't want to put the Gao family in jeopardy again.
Chu Yuxuan was someone he simply couldn't provoke. No, not even his father could afford to cross him!
After weighing his options for a moment, he gritted his teeth and walked up to Chu Yuxuan, then suddenly dropped to his knees!
"Mr. Chu, I was wrong before. I hope you can give Xia Zhu another chance and not replace her role! She... she really couldn't handle it!"
Chu Yuxuan rolled his eyes. At this point, saying such things—what was the point? It was just a ploy to please Xia Zhu.
"A leopard can't change its spots. You'll always be a green tea dog till the day you die!" Chu Yuxuan sneered.
Hearing Chu Yuxuan lay bare his true intentions, Gao Ning couldn't help but be a little startled.
Just then, seeing her golden son-in-law kneeling in front of that pretty boy, Xia's mother, who had been holding her own against many with her "rapid-fire spitting" technique, suddenly exploded with rage. She pushed aside the two security guards blocking her and charged forward.
She rushed up to the company entrance, grabbed Chu Yuxuan by the collar, and started shouting, "You freeloader! You think you've got some nerve now, huh?
