Back Then, I Adored You

It’s her father’s birthday? So she isn’t here with little troublemaker?

Gu Yusheng frowned slightly and thought for a moment. With bright eyes and furrowed eyebrows, he tilted his head and said “oh” to Zhou Jing absent-mindedly. Then he threw the paper towel in his hand into the trash can and prepared to turn around to leave the bathroom, when suddenly he thought of what Liang Doukou had said the night before. He stopped his actions and as if he was chatting with her, asked Zhou Jing casually, “Have you finished with the script?”

At that time, Liang Doukou only had the drama “Ethos of the Flourishing Tang Dynasty,” which hadn’t started shooting yet. Therefore, Zhou Jing instinctively asked, “Ethos of the Flourishing Tang Dynasty?”

When he had talked to Liang Doukou the previous night, she hadn’t told him the name of the script, so Gu Yusheng wasn’t sure of the name. He only nodded and mumbled, “Yes.”

“We already discussed the script with the screenwriter before going to Paris. It officially begins shooting in ten days!”

So did little troublemaker not go shopping with Zhou Jing this morning? That is to say, last night, the little troublemaker just found an excuse in order to avoid my proposal of accompanying her to go shopping.

Gu Yusheng closed his eyes without saying a word. There was no dissatisfaction shown on his handsome face. However, the slight tension in the corner of his lips revealed that he was actually dissatisfied.

After answering Gu Yusheng, Zhou Jing suddenly remembered that Liang Doukou had almost lost the female leading role in “Ethos of the Flourishing Tang Dynasty.” Later, the biggest investor had said that only Liang Doukou was suitable for the female leading role. Then they had begun to pay attention to Liang Doukou’s role again. Qin Zhi’ai had probably asked Old Master Gu for help, and Old Master Gu had asked Gu Yusheng to help her. Thinking about it, she smiled at Gu Yusheng and said, “Master Gu, talking about this, I must say thanks to you. Because of you, Xiaokou’s part hasn’t been cut too much by Lin Yi.”

After hearing what Zhou Jing had said, Gu Yusheng, who was still thinking about being deceived by his little troublemaker a second ago, immediately raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Jing with a sharp gaze. “Who’s Lin Yi? What did Lin Yi do to her?”

Stunned by Gu Yusheng’s drastic reaction, Zhou Yi told the whole story to Gu Yusheng.

Gu Yusheng didn’t open his mouth from the beginning to the end, but at the end, there was hostility appearing on his face.

At the beginning, he didn’t ask her what had happened. She didn’t mention the detailed information in the message she sent to Lu Bancheng. She only said that her part had been cut. He, of course, knew that was normal in her circle, so he didn’t think too much of it. He had also reminded Lu Bancheng to help her. He didn’t expect that her original part had been cut because someone had attracted an investor and wanted to replace her…

What a joke? How could she replace Liang Doukou without my permission?

Though Zhou Jing didn’t know what Gu Yusheng was thinking about, she realized that he was in low spirits. At last, she thought for a while and added a sentence prudently to show Liang Doukou’s magnanimous and concessive image, “However, this matter already happened some time in the past and Xiaokou’s part wasn’t affected by her. We all work in the same circles and will meet inevitably. There’s no need to be too embarrassed. At least, we need to take her into consideration and pretend to be friendly with her.

Take her into consideration? My woman doesn’t need to care about what others think.
