Getting married!!!

Holy shit!

Gu Luosheng had never dreamed that she would recover all ten billion she had spent. Not only that, she had even made a profit!

Things had not gone nearly as well for Gu Luoxi, however.

The moment she reached backstage, Gu Luoxi swept everything off the table.

Cosmetics and other items scattered across the floor.

"Why! Why did Gu Luosheng get to become popular?" Gu Luoxi glared furiously, seething with rage.

She had been the one who invited Wang Chen this time, so why had everything changed?

Just then, Wang Chen walked in unhurriedly. Her brows furrowed at the debris littering the floor.

Just as I thought! Gu Luoxi was never a kind person.

Good thing I heard Luosheng's thoughts, or she definitely would have used me!

"Chenchen." Gu Luoxi's attitude changed instantly when she saw Wang Chen. "What happened onstage just now? Did Gu Luosheng say something to you? Don't listen to her. She's just trying to drive a wedge between us!"

Wang Chen sneered inwardly and said blandly, "It has nothing to do with Gu Luosheng. My period started today, and I'm in a bad mood. If I said anything onstage that upset you, don't hold it against me."

As she spoke, Wang Chen discreetly pulled her hand free.

Then she picked up a disinfectant wipe nearby and wiped her hand over and over.

Gu Luoxi tugged at the corners of her mouth, her smile looking worse than a grimace.

"Oh, I see..."

Wang Chen blinked. "I have a new song launch this afternoon. I'll be going now."

After that, Wang Chen made a point of looking for Gu Luosheng on her way out, but she did not see her.

Little did she know, Gu Luosheng had been mobbed by fans the moment she stepped outside.

She had never expected so many people at the back entrance, too!

As she pondered an escape route, a powerful force yanked her away.

"Ah!" Gu Luosheng cried instinctively, kicking straight toward the man's crotch.

Luckily, the man reacted quickly and caught her foot.

"It's me," Ye Nanshen said in a low voice.

"Big... ahem, Ye Nanshen!" She had almost blurted out "big villain" out of habit, but caught herself at the last second.

Gu Luosheng looked at her foot suspended in midair and swallowed. Thank goodness that kick had not landed, or she would have crippled him and ruined his happiness for the rest of his life.

"What are you doing here?" Gu Luosheng asked, puzzled.

"Discussing a partnership." Ye Nanshen remained perfectly composed as he tossed out an excuse.

"Huh? Don't you leave your entertainment company alone?" Gu Luosheng blinked innocently.

She remembered that Ye Nanshen's neglect of his entertainment business was exactly what had allowed Gu Luoxi and Shen Zhe to exploit an opening.

Otherwise, with the big villain's methods, crushing them would have been as easy as squashing an ant.

Ye Nanshen's gaze cooled. The little thing was quick on the uptake. "I check in occasionally."

"Okay, okay. You should keep a closer eye on it from now on," Gu Luosheng reminded him kindly.

"Otherwise, you won't even know what killed you..." Gu Luosheng muttered under her breath.

The man did not hear that.

After two seconds of silence, Gu Luosheng finally realized... they seemed to be in a restroom!

And it was the men's room!!!

Damn it.

She tilted her head... and saw that upright fixture meant specifically for men.

Oh... good heavens...

It was her first time in a men's restroom.

Oh my God, how embarrassing.

"Um... how about we talk outside?" Gu Luosheng started to leave.

The man pinned her against the wall. "It's full of people outside right now. If you go out, they'll mob you. Tomorrow's trending headline will be 'Gu Luosheng enters men's restroom.'"

Just imagining it... made Gu Luosheng want to die.

She could do without that trending topic.

"Then what do we do?" Gu Luosheng was on the verge of tears.

The man narrowed his eyes and looked down at her. "I remember you still owe me a favor?"

"What favor?" Gu Luosheng asked suspiciously.

The man pressed his tongue against his lower jaw and softly uttered one word: "Tent."

Gu Luosheng suddenly remembered.

She gave him a hollow smile. "What... do you want me to do?"

"Get married," Ye Nanshen said leisurely.

"Oh my God." Gu Luosheng went limp, almost sliding down the wall.

"President... President Ye, marriage is a serious matter. You can't treat it like a game. Please don't do anything rash! Look at you, you look almost human-no, I mean, you're a fine-looking man. Getting cut down at the peak of your career-no, I mean, you have a limitless future. I'm just a lowly working girl. Everyone says I'm a washed-up nobody with no acting skills, and..."

Before Gu Luosheng could finish, Ye Nanshen interrupted her. "You don't need money. It's enough that I have it."

"Three billion as the bride price, a mansion downtown, a villa in the suburbs, and your choice of a Maserati or a Lamborghini. Or you can have both. Those will be your dowry. On top of that, one million in spending money every month." Ye Nanshen casually toyed with the thumb ring on his hand.

"How much? How much did you say? All of that would be mine?" Gu Luosheng pressed a hand to her heart, silently chanting, Hold it together!

Don't act like you've never seen money before.

"Say yes, and it's all yours." Ye Nanshen's lips curved into a faint smile.

Handsome. So ridiculously handsome and cool.

Gu Luosheng swore she was absolutely not attracted by the money. She had been bewitched by the man's looks.

To hell with everything else. Gu Luosheng nodded furiously.

"Good." Ye Nanshen raised a brow.

He took her hand and started leading her outside.

"Wait, there are fans out there." Gu Luosheng still retained a tiny shred of reason.

"Don't worry." Ye Nanshen walked straight out.

But there was no one outside now.

Realization suddenly dawned on Gu Luosheng.

Shit...

This entire entertainment company belonged to Ye Nanshen. Making the fans leave would only take a word from him.

Dazed, she followed Ye Nanshen into the car.

Then she suddenly came to her senses.

She was going to marry the big villain?

Had she lost her mind?

If she got involved with the big villain, she would die an even more horrible death!!!

No, no. She had to escape right now.

With that thought, Gu Luosheng hurriedly reached for the car door handle.

[Host, here's a little-known fact: you cannot take on the male and female leads alone.]

[Impossible!]

Gu Luosheng looked utterly confident.

[Look at today's variety show. I made Gu Luoxi dance like a trained dog.]

[Host, if you don't believe me, watch the clip-no, check your phone.]

Hearing that, Gu Luosheng quickly picked up her phone.

To her surprise...

She saw that Gu Luoxi had posted a video.

Gu Luoxi explained that it had all been for entertainment and everything had been arranged by the director. She had initially refused, but agreed when she thought about how it would make everyone happy. Moreover, what appeared after she removed her makeup had actually been makeup designed to make her look ugly.

The director even appeared afterward to explain it himself.

There was also behind-the-scenes footage...

They had made it look quite convincing.

Gu Luosheng chuckled. No way. Everyone will definitely see through it.

But her smile did not last three seconds.

-That scared me to death! Thank goodness it was all fake. Xixi's acting is amazing!

-Actors this dedicated are so rare. I'll be her fan for life!

-Xixi works so hard. She's never had a single scandal since her debut. I knew everything in the livestream was fake. Thank goodness they cleared it up.

Uh...

Gu Luosheng realized that Gu Luoxi's female lead halo was truly powerful. Even this could not bring her down!
