Before the Chen family could make any move, the whistleblower dropped another bombshell the very next day—
[I've said this isn't over yet. Chen Rui did much more than what I mentioned yesterday. Everyone in the industry knows Chen Rui is madly in love with Chu Mo. Because a girl confessed to Chu Mo in college, she not only had the girl raped but also set fire to her family's house, causing the girl's parents and younger brother to be burned alive! See the evidence for yourself! [Video][Video][Screenshot of transfer]]
This revelation immediately sparked outrage among netizens.
[What the hell is Chen Rui?! I'm really going to curse her out! Chen Rui, you piece of shit, why don't you just die?! You've done nothing but evil in this world, haven't you?! #￥#...%...%#!@% (The following is a string of curses omitted)]
[How can there be such a person? Anyone who runs into this is incredibly unlucky!]
[The Chen family, who raised such a daughter, are no good either! Who knows what other despicable and disgusting things they've done behind the scenes! Boycott the Chen family businesses!!]
[Yes!! Boycott the Chen family businesses!!]
The public was outraged; almost overnight, the market value of Chen's company evaporated by over a billion, causing Chen's father to throw a tantrum at home.
When Xia Hong saw the news, he knew his opportunity had arrived. He sent Jin Shi instructions to take the chance to kill Ji Nanshu Ji Nanshu, or at least seriously injure him. After giving the orders, he went to the Chen family.
The Chen family study.
Xia Hong said with a smile, "Patriarch Chen, I have come to visit you abruptly because of your daughter's recent situation. I just don't know if Patriarch Chen is willing to part with her."
Mr. Chen frowned. "What do you want?"
"I don't want anything, I just want Ji Nanshu dead! As for the Ji Family... we'll see who does what after this is done." Xia Hong's eyes flashed with malice.
"As far as I know, you and Ji Xianzhe are close friends."
Xia Hong laughed dismissively, "That idiot Ji Xianzhe... does he even deserve to be my friend?"
"I need to think about it."
Xia Hong stood up. "Then I'll wait for Patriarch Chen's good news. Farewell!"
Xia Hong thought he had kept things discreet, but little did he know that his every move was under the control of Ji Nanshu and Chu Mo.
After filming wrapped on the fourth day of the second season of the dating reality show, Jin Shi covered his forehead, took his phone, and went to find Ji Nanshu and Chu Mo.
He was speechless as soon as he entered the door, taken aback by Chu Mo's unsatisfied gaze. No, it's that your wife won't let you touch her. Did you think you could get into Ji Nanshu's bed if he hadn't come today? That's all the ambition you have! Unlike him, whose wife is so cute and obedient!
Under Chu Mo's murderous gaze, the three quickly devised a plan to deceive Xia Hong.
The plan is good, but I feel a bit sorry for Director Yang and all the guests.
The next morning, Ji Nanshu collapsed to the ground after drinking a glass of milk, startling everyone on the production team, especially Chu Mo, whose acting was so realistic that he truly deserved to be called an award-winning actor.
Director Yang cut off the live stream in time, and the Chu family's medical team took Ji Nanshu and Chu Mo away.
[What's going on?! What happened to my Shubao?! Why did he suddenly faint?!]
[Could something be wrong with her health?]
[Holy crap, I was kissing and hugging Film Emperor Chu this morning, and then I just drank a glass of milk and collapsed. Could someone have poisoned me?!]
[Holy crap, poison?! Who the hell dares to harm our Shubao? Could it be Chen Rui?!]
[That can't be, I heard he's already been locked up by the Chen family.]
[Just locked up?! With such solid evidence, they weren't sent to jail? Does the Chen family think they can cover up everything?]
[Please, he's just been locked up by his family, not imprisoned. Is his phone unusable? If it were, it wouldn't be difficult for Miss Chen to order someone to poison Ji Nanshu!]
[Now that you mention it, it's actually quite possible. Anyway, someone as vicious as Chen Rui is capable of anything! I wouldn't be surprised at all if it really was Chen Rui who did it!]
Ji Nanshu, Chu Mo, and Jin Shi probably didn't expect that this matter would be blamed on Chen Rui, and even Chen Rui herself didn't expect it.
It's like being caught in a trap while sitting at home.
So when Chen Rui was slapped across the face by her older brother as soon as she got up, she was completely baffled. "Big brother, are you crazy?! Why are you hitting me first thing in the morning?"
Chen Anbang: " Ji Nanshu is in trouble. Did you do it?"
"What does his accident have to do with me? Haven't I been locked up by you guys for the past few days? How can you blame me for this?"
Chen Anbang sneered, "It better not be!"
Then he slammed the door and left.
Chen Rui covered her face, Ji Nanshu: "Aa...
Chu Mo quickly arranged for a private plane to pick up Ji Nanshu and bring her back to the Imperial Capital Hospital. By the time the Ji Family brothers found out, Ji Nanshu had already been at the hospital for two or three hours.
He rushed into the ward, ready to unleash a torrent of abuse on Chu Mo, but when he saw Ji Nanshu energetically directing Chu Mo to cut fruit for him, he instantly fell silent.
Ji Xingchi gritted his teeth and roared at Chu Mo, "What's going on?"
Ji Nanshu waved his hand reassuringly, "Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, please sit down, I'm fine."
The four brothers very consciously pushed Chu Mo aside and showed concern for Ji Nanshu.
After Ji Nanshu assured them that he was truly unharmed, the four of them finally remembered to ask Chu Mo about the whole story.
Chu Mo placed the cut fruit in front of Ji Nanshu and fed him piece by piece before raising his eyelids to acknowledge the four brothers. However, his gaze was extremely unfriendly, causing the four brothers to tremble.
Damn it, that dog Chu only knows how to threaten them!
After the four of them sat down properly, Chu Mo slowly and methodically told them the whole story.
Ji Xingchi frowned. "What you're doing is putting An'an in great danger."
Chu Mo said calmly, "He's not a parasite; he can handle these things."
The person he loves is never someone who hides behind family and friends waiting to be protected. He can act recklessly and play around as he pleases, and he will always be there to support him.
Ji Nanshu finished the last piece of fruit and exclaimed, "Hey A-Mo, come quick! Our fans have flooded Chen's Enterprises' official website!"
"Hahahaha, this is hilarious! Our fans have such vivid imaginations! They've pinned the 'poisoning' on Chen Rui. We need an explanation from the Chen family."
The Ji Family brothers covered their faces; their An'an really did seem perfectly fine... all that worry for nothing!
After laughing, Ji Nanshu said, "Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, don't worry, I'm fine, and I wasn't poisoned. I was just fooling those people for fun. When you go out, remember to act heartbroken, okay? I've already told Mom and Dad about it."
The Ji Family brothers: So, they, the older brothers, are just superfluous?
