Chapter 10
Gu Xue thought that her father would be furious when he saw her, but she was wrong, Gu Zhiwei didn't scold Gu Xue, and he didn't even say a word to the other party, he was already so disappointed in this daughter that he didn't even bother to scold.
The day after returning to Haishi, Gu Xue went to Wen's house and pleaded guilty to Old Man Wen. Wen Tingshu didn't say anything in front of Gu Xue, but it could be seen that he was actually very unhappy in his heart.
The matter of the marriage between the two families seems to be over, and no one mentions it anymore, and no one pursues it anymore. Gu Xue was happy to see such an ending, although the process was a little twists and turns, but she finally withdrew the Wen family's marriage.
However, Gu Zhiwei's mood was not as relaxed as Gu Xue's.
He has really had a bad deal recently, Gu Xue's escape from marriage is bad enough, but Yue Heng Pictures is also in trouble.
First, the loan application to the bank was inexplicably returned, and then, there were problems with the company's capital chain, and even the several movies that were being negotiated were full of twists and turns, as if overnight, all the troubles were pressed over, and Gu Zhiwei was already a little overwhelmed.
Previously, Wen Tingshu had intentionally or unintentionally asked about the situation of Yueheng Pictures, and the words seemed to imply: The Wen family is willing to help. However, due to the fact that Gu Xue and Wen Minxuan were about to get engaged at that time, Gu Zhiwei felt that there was no need to be in a hurry, and after the engagement ceremony was held and the relationship between the two families was settled, it would be more justifiable to ask the Wen family for help at that time.
But now, the marriage between the Wen and Gu families is yellow, will the Wen family still lend a hand?
Gu Zhiwei sighed deeply, he felt that no matter what the attitude of the Wen family was, he should give it a try. When his father was alive, he and Wen Tingshu were also close friends, and he believed that Old Man Wen would still give the Gu family a little thin noodles.

Wen Minxuan drove a black BMW, slowly drove out of the Wen family's house, and when he reached the door, he found Gu Zhiwei wandering outside the courtyard gate, he rolled down the window and greeted the other party: "Uncle Gu." β
Gu Zhiwei immediately walked up, "Minxuan, are you going out?" β
"I'm going to meet a client." Wen Minxuan stepped on the brakes and leaned towards the window, "Uncle Gu, are you here to find me?" β
Gu Zhiwei smiled wryly, "I'm looking for your grandfather." β
"Do you have something to do with him?"
"Yueheng Pictures has been in some trouble lately, so I want to talk to him about ......"
"My grandfather is not in good health during this time." Wen Minxuan unceremoniously interrupted Gu Zhiwei, "His old man has been working too hard recently, and he has been worried a lot just for Gu Xue's escape from marriage, so if you don't have anything important, don't bother my grandfather." β
Gu Zhiwei's face turned red, white and red, it was ugly, the other party's words were clearly intended to embarrass him, however, he was powerless to refute. Gu Zhiwei realized that it might be a wrong decision to come to the Wen family for help, so he began to retreat.
At this time, Wen Minxuan opened his mouth again: "Uncle Gu, the matter of Yueheng Pictures, you and I are the same. β
As he spoke, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "I'm in a hurry now, you come up, I'll talk to you while driving." β
Gu Zhiwei hesitated for a moment, and finally got into the car.
Sitting on the soft leather seat, Gu Zhiwei felt like he was on pins and needles, he cleared his throat and said in a low voice: "Minxuan, Xiaoxue is indeed too much this time. β
"Oh? Do you think she's going too far? Wen Minxuan stared ahead, a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, "Gu Xue didn't feel that he was wrong at all. β
"Xiaoxue, she ...... She ......, "Gu Zhiwei stumbled and didn't know how to answer.
Wen Minxuan didn't have the patience to listen to the other party's words, he changed his words, and suddenly said: "Uncle Gu, I have heard about the current situation of your family, after all, our two families are world friends, and I don't want to watch the Gu family go bankrupt." I can help Yueheng Pictures, but I have one condition. β
Gu Zhiwei swallowed his saliva a little apprehensively, "What conditions?" β
"Call your daughter to beg me."
After listening to Wen Minxuan's words, Gu Zhiwei was stunned, and after relieving himself, he patiently comforted: "Xiaoxue is indeed wrong, I can ask her to apologize to you in person, but there is no way to force emotional matters, since Xiaoxue is unwilling to get engaged, Minxuan, don't be too persistent." β
"Uncle Gu, do you think that I have no affection for Gu Xueyu?" Wen Minxuan suddenly laughed, "Don't worry, I won't ask Gu Xue to marry me, but I don't mind keeping her as my lover." Let her stay with me for half a month first, and if she satisfies me, I can consider helping Yueheng Pictures get out of trouble. β
It has been more than a year since she was officially dating Gu Xue, and during this time, Wen Minxuan has never touched her. Gu Xue has a well-behaved personality, and her appearance is as pure as a water lotus, which always gives people the feeling that they can only be watched from a distance and cannot be blasphemed, so Wen Minxuan is not in a hurry.
But he didn't expect that Gu Xue would hook up outside and spend the night at another man's house. Wen Minxuan felt that he was very stupid, he was stupidly "looking at it from a distance" there, but this "lotus" had already been "blasphemed" by other men I don't know how many times.
"You...... What did you say? Gu Zhiwei's eyes widened in astonishment, he didn't expect Wen Minxuan to say such a thing at all.
Wen Minxuan grabbed the steering wheel with one hand, held the edge of the window with the other, turned his face slightly, and smiled at him, "What?" Didn't hear me? Then I'll say it again, let your daughter sleep with me for half a month first, and then I'll consider whether to help you take care of your family. β
Gu Zhiwei's face was flushed with anger, and he immediately shouted: "Stop." β
The car stopped in response, Gu Zhiwei pushed the door and got out of the car, and then threw the door on his backhand.
Wen Minxuan chased after his back again: "Uncle Gu, you should think about my construction, and when you think about it, you can call me." β
After speaking, as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the BMW car quickly swept past Gu Zhiwei.
Gu Zhiwei walked on the crowded streets, but he felt that the people and things around him were so strange, the people and things he was once familiar with seemed to have changed, his once well-behaved and sensible daughter had become disobedient, and the prospective son-in-law who had made him proud turned out to be such a dirty person.
He walked aimlessly until he was tired and couldn't walk, so he took a taxi back to Gu's house.
Back in his living room, Gu Zhiwei only felt weak, he slumped on the sofa, like a listless sick cat. There was a sudden cramping pain in his heart, he reached out and covered it for a while, but the pain was not relieved, he had to get up and look for medicine.
At the moment when he got up, the mobile phone suddenly rang, he immediately picked it up, and an anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Chairman, Mr. Sheng has just submitted his resignation to the company, and more than half of the company's artists have said that they want to go with Mr. Sheng." Chairman, what now? β
Gu Zhiwei was shocked, the cramping pain in his chest became more and more intense, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but the voice was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't make it, he heard the anxious urging on the other end of the phone: "Hey, chairman?" Feed? β
However, his consciousness became more and more blurred, and with a "pop", the phone fell heavily to the ground.
When Yu Zhilan and Gu Xue were called downstairs by the maid, Gu Zhiwei had already fallen into a coma, and the Gu family was suddenly in chaos. The ambulance took Gu Zhiwei to the hospital, and the final diagnosis was: acute myocardial infarction. Due to the timely rescue, he finally saved his life, but his body is still very weak and needs to be hospitalized for observation.
Yu Zhilan was already crying profusely, and her mouth was full of muttering: "Zhiwei, you must not have anything to do, if you fall, what will Xiaoxue and I do?" β
Gu Xue looked at her father on the hospital bed and felt unprecedented helplessness, before, no matter how bad the situation of the Gu family was, no matter how bad the situation of Yueheng Pictures was, Gu Zhiwei supported it, and there was still a person on top when the sky fell, but now, the pillars of the family have fallen, and all the burdens are on Gu Xue's shoulders.
Before, Gu Xue only thought about breaking the marriage contract with the Wen family, and as for reviving the family business, she didn't pay attention to it at all, but now that the matter is coming, what should she do?
Gu Xue gradually fell into deep thought, however, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, she was no longer in the hospital ward, but in the lively and grand award ceremony.
On the gorgeous stage, under the bright spotlight, a young man held the trophy in one hand and the microphone in the other, and was impassionedly saying his acceptance speech.
In the next second, the scene suddenly changed again, a movie weekly appeared in front of Gu Xue's eyes, and the page that was turned happened to be the introduction of a certain movie, the movie was called "The End of the Road", which was a funny film, with an investment of only more than 10 million, but it received a box office of more than 300 million and a good reputation.
Gu Xue's heart beat wildly, she knew that her opportunity had come, if Yueheng Pictures could shoot this movie, she would definitely be able to make a beautiful turnaround.
Her eyes widened, she carefully read every word in the weekly magazine, and before the illusion completely disappeared, she remembered the director's name: Jian Feng.

At the same time that Gu Xue was in trouble, Sui Yun's life was not easy.
His luck has been on his back lately. First, he was inexplicably fired by the unit, and then, after participating in more than a dozen interviews in succession, he was unsuccessful, and finally, a unit was willing to ask him, and as a result, he was fired again after working in the new unit for less than a week.
Sui Yun thought that he hadn't made any mistakes, and he couldn't understand why he was fired. Later, a leader of the original unit told him the truth.
The leader said that he had offended people, so the other party was deliberately rectifying him, and also tactfully advised him to go to other provinces and cities for development, because it was impossible for him to find a decent job in Heng City, and no formal enterprise would hire him.
Sui Yun couldn't figure it out, he had a good temper and rarely had quarrels with people, who wanted to fix him?
He would never have thought that the mastermind behind the scenes was the "fiancΓ©" he had only met once, and he would never have thought that he had kindly helped Gu Xue, but as a result, he would get into trouble.
At this point, there is no point in guessing who is behind the scenes, and the current priority is to solve the current predicament, and he can't stay at home and eat white rice all the time.
After thinking about it for a while, Sui Yun finally made up his mind: "Dad, Mom, I plan to go to Haishi to work." β
Zhao Suying was carrying the needlework soles, and after listening to her son's words, she raised her head in surprise, "Ayun, are you going to Haishi?" β
Sui Yun nodded, "I have a few friends who work in Haishi, and I heard from them that the salary in Haishi is higher than ours, and there are more opportunities, so I want to give it a try." β
Zhao Suying put down the needlework in her hand, and her eyes showed a hint of reluctance, "If you go to Haishi, you can't go home often." β
Seeing this, Sui Yaodong on the side immediately interjected: "I think this is very good, Haishi is a big city, much stronger than ours, young people should go out to break through, and they can have a future in the future." β
Sui Yun echoed with a smile: "What Dad said makes sense, I think so too." Mom, don't worry, Haishi is not far from here, and I can still go home often. β
Seeing that the father and son unanimously agreed, Zhao Suying had no choice but to agree, "Ah Yun, you must take good care of yourself outside, and remember to call home more." β
A few days later, Sui Yun boarded the long-distance bus to Haishi and began an unknown and at the same time full of expectations.
