CHAPTER 661-670
Chapter 661: Trouble in the Li Family 2
The Li Family had been watching the livestream of Dialogue and thought that Mu Weiwei would not be able to make a comeback this time.
But in the end, Li Xing’er was slapped across the face by the agent from Shiyi Culture.
At the beginning, when they saw Jolin revealing Mu Weiwei’s hospitalization records and the news of Li Xing’er and her mother moving into the Mu Family, they were just worried; because this matter could be explained to the public through public relations.
However, they soon saw Jolin showing the pictures of Zhou Meiqin and Wang Weidong in bed.
Zhou Meiqin turned pale. “What…”
What was this picture doing here?
The Old Lady got so annoyed that she shook and turned to Zhou Meiqin.
“What is going on? What is going on with this picture?”
“Mom, it is not true…”
Zhou Meiqin tried to defend herself.
“What do you mean it is not real? Didn’t you say that the girl was the one you sent to him? You were away on business for the past few days but now I think you were actually fooling around with President Wang…”
“Mom, how can you say that?” Zhou Meiqin furiously stood up and countered with a cold voice.
She had put in so much effort for this family, and this damned old woman was always hoping for a divorce, just because she did not have a grandson.
She had thought that without Zhou Meiqin, she would not be able to live a happy life at home.
But could her son be the boss of Longsheng Enterprise without her?
However, not only the Old Lady, but Li Jiacheng also looked at Zhou Meiqin suspiciously.
“When Wang Weidong was in trouble, you kept calling him and saying that you were not going to help him with his affairs.”
At that time, he had thought that it was because of work that they had kept in contact with each other, but now it seemed that they had been meeting behind his back many times.
If Wang Weidong had not been hospitalized in a car accident and become a vegetable, they would probably still be in contact with each other.
“What do you mean? I have done so much for you and now you are suspecting me, just because of a few pictures?” Zhou Meiqin gritted her teeth.
Although she knew that the picture was real, she must not admit it in front of them.
She had tried to persuade Xing’er not to mess with Mu Weiwei, fearing that she would release the pictures.
She tried all kinds of methods to get the pictures back from her, but to no avail.
Unexpectedly, she had been abroad for business these past few days and things had turned out this way.
They had just come home today and it was already the day of the show.
God knew that she had been very nervous ever since she sat in front of the TV but what she did not want to see the most, had ended up happening.
They were just arguing when Li Xing’er came home.
Along with her came the courier, who delivered the lawyer’s letter.
Li Xing’er had just opened the letter when Li Jiacheng received a phone call.
“Hello, I am Miss. Mu’s lawyer. We have filed a lawsuit against Mr. Li and Mrs. Li for illegally occupying Miss. Mu Weiwei’s family property.”
“What illegally? I am Mu Yao’s husband and I should be the inheritor. This is my company…” Li Jiacheng furiously professed to the lawyer.
The lawyer straightforwardly said, “But according to Mr. Mu Longsheng’s will, all the properties of the Mu Family should be inherited by his daughter Mu Yao and granddaughter Mu Weiwei…”
Chapter 662: Mu Weiwei Has the True Will
Will?
Li Jiacheng was startled when he heard the word.
“I inherited Longsheng Enterprise’s will from the lawyer of the Mu Family. I didn’t know that you had such a will…”
“It is your problem that you didn’t know about it, but it does exist. As for how Mr. Li got his will, I am sure Mr. Li knows about it.” The lawyer said.
“You…” Li Jiacheng was speechless.
The lawyer of the Mu Family had a will, but they had bribed the lawyer to change it.
Unexpectedly, the old man with the surname Mu kept one in the safe.
“Mr. Li must have received the lawyer’s letter too. Will Mr. Li return the stolen property to Miss. Mu or shall we deal with it for Miss. Mu in court? Think carefully.” The lawyer said and hung up.
Li Jiacheng grabbed Li Xing’er’s letter and tore it into pieces.
“She is so rebellious! I have worked hard for the company for so many years and now she wants to take it back? No way!”
“What?”
Seeing her son getting so anxious, the Old Lady turned her attention away from Zhou Meiqin.
Li Xing’er said, “Mu Weiwei is going to sue us for the company and the apartment.”
“Take it back?! If her father had not been guarding the company all these years, how would she have been able to get it back?” Old Lady got so furious when she heard the words.
Her son had been working so hard for the company, ever since he married into the Mu Family. That wretched girl had done nothing for the company and the family. Now she was trying to steal the company away from them. What a rebel she was!
“But if she has the will, we won’t be able to win the lawsuit either.” Zhou Meiqin said.
“The will was left for Jiacheng…” Old Lady said.
Zhou Meiqin sneered and ruthlessly told the truth.
“That will is fake. Grandpa Mu made a will from the very beginning and left the properties and company to Mu Yao and Mu Weiwei. You have nothing left.”
If she had not eavesdropped on the contents of the will and had not bribed the lawyer to make a false will, the Li Family would not have become the leaders of Longsheng Enterprise.
“This old man with the surname Mu is so cruel! Chengcheng has married into the Mu Family and the child has taken the surname of the Mu Family. He did not even leave us any money before he died.”
The Old Lady gritted her teeth, when she thought of Mu Longsheng who left the will.
“Our will is fake and what Mu Weiwei has is real. We will definitely lose this case.” Zhou Meiqin snorted as she threw a look at Li Jiacheng.
If he wanted to divorce her now then he could go ahead but there was no one else who would help him, except her.
Li Jiacheng calmed down, thought for a while and said, “Mu Weiwei might not have the will. If she did, why didn’t she show it to us before?”
Zhou Meiqin threw a look at the simple-minded Li Jiacheng and said, “If she had brought it out earlier, even if she hired a lawyer, she might not have been able to beat us. But now… the matter has blown up and everyone else in the Li Family will stand on her side.”
There were indeed two portions of the will at that time. One was kept by the Mu Family’s lawyer and the other one’s whereabouts was unknown.
It turned out that Mu Longsheng had a safe in the Swiss Bank and he had only told Mu Weiwei about it.
Otherwise, she would have found out where the other will was hidden, when she and Li Jiacheng tested Mu Yao several times.
But they had ignored Mu Weiwei.
Chapter 663: Mu Weiwei?
Li Xing’er sat down on the sofa and massaged her temples.
When the company wanted to cut off all ties with her, Mu Weiwei was the reason behind the fuss at home.
Mu Weiwei was trying to drive them into a corner.
“Dad, Mom, now is not the time to talk about these things. If you don’t think of a way, you will not be able to get any of the properties in the company. You will be thrown out onto the streets.”
Zhou Meiqin threw a look at Li Jiacheng and the Old Lady. “Aren’t we getting a divorce? Then why should I care? It has nothing to do with me.”
“Meiqin, just now… I was just saying those words out of anger. I am so confused. We have been husband and wife for so many years, do you really want to see our family lose everything?” The Old Lady softened her tone towards Zhou Meiqin for the sake of her son.
Although Zhou Meiqin was a failure and had not given birth to a grandson for her, she was a smart woman and she did help her son advance his career.
Now was not the time for them to get a divorce. It was time for them to work together.
Li Jiacheng thought for a while and said, “I am sorry, Meiqin, I should not have treated you like that.”
He alone could not deal with such a situation.
Therefore, he needed Zhou Meiqin’s help.
Zhou Meiqin sat down and said to them, “We can’t solve this in court, they are being unreasonable.”
“Then what should we do? Let her come back and take away the company and all the properties?” The Old Lady got anxious.
“This matter must not be brought to court. Mu Weiwei must withdraw the lawsuit, so we can deal with it in private. After all, Jiacheng is her father and you are her grandma too…” Zhou Meiqin revealed her plan.
If Mu Weiwei had the real will in her hands, they would not be able to deal with the case in court.
What was more, they did get married when she was in a coma, which would be detrimental to them in court.
So they had to ask Mu Weiwei to drop the lawsuit first.
“Mom, you want us to beg her?” Li Xing’er understood what she meant and angrily countered her.
Zhou Meiqin glared at her and said, “If you had not provoked her, things would not have turned out this way.”
If she had not caused trouble for Mu Weiwei, everything would have been fine.
But now, she had ruined her future as a star and caused her to be involved in such a scandal, whilst also putting the Li Family and the Zhou Family in such a difficult situation.
“I…” Li Xing’er gritted her teeth and had no words to argue back with.
“You better mind your own business and be prepared to apologize to Mu Weiwei.” Zhou Meiqin warned.
She had been living in high society for so many years; she could not lose everything and end up being forced to live a normal life.
They had to keep the company no matter what.
“You want me to apologize to her, mother…” Li Xing’er got even angrier after hearing her words.
“This is all your fault! You will do whatever I want you to do! You have no right to object!” Zhou Meiqin snapped.
She knew very well that they could not fight with Mu Weiwei in this situation.
Because of the program tonight, Mu Weiwei had gained too many supporters, and it would not be good for them to confront her directly.
So they could only persuade her to give up the lawsuit and allow them to continue running the company on her behalf.
She did not have any experience in managing a business, so she could not take over the company…
Chapter 664: Mu Weiwei? 2
Li Xing’er was not convinced, yet she had nothing to say.
If she had known that this would happen, she would not have attacked Mu Weiwei.
But it was too late to regret it now, so she had to think of a way to get through the current crisis.
Li Jiacheng thought for a while and said to Li Xing’er, “Think of a way to get Wei Ziting to help you with your work.”
Now that they could not even defend themselves, no one would care about the PR.
“Wei Ziting is abroad on business and he is not coming home anytime soon. When he comes home… I will be cursed to death.” Li Xing’er angrily said.
She had not expected that Mu Weiwei’s agent would have gathered so much evidence and turned her and the Li Family into the public enemy.
“No one is going to help you now.” Zhou Meiqin said coldly.
If she had been wronged, she could still find evidence to prove her innocence but Mu Weiwei’s agent was telling the truth, so it was useless for them to explain anything.
No matter how much PR they did, the public would still thoroughly investigate the matter. There was no reason to give them more of an incentive to continue with the investigation.
So the only way out was for Mu Weiwei to give up on the lawsuit.
But she knew that it would not be easy for Mu Weiwei to give up.
After all, ever since her mother died, they had never been on good terms with her. They were even enemies.
Li Xing’er angrily returned to her room upstairs. She thought for a while and made a call to her agent, asking her to think of something.
But after a few words, the agent hung up and turned off the phone.
Li Jiacheng and his men were in the messy living room downstairs, trying to find a way to make Mu Weiwei give up on trying to take back the company.
Finally, Zhou Meiqin made the decision and said to them, “It seems that Mu Weiwei will return to the country tomorrow. We will find out her schedule for the next few days and then…” She said, as she looked at Old Lady and Li Xiangxiang, “Xiangxiang, go and meet her with grandma. No matter how humiliating it is, beg her to give up the lawsuit. ”
She, Li Jiacheng and Xing’er had had conflicts with Mu Weiwei before, and it was not a good time for her to ask Mu Weiwei for mercy.
Also, too many people were watching the three of them, so it was not convenient for them to show up.
In the entire family, only the Old Lady and Li Xiangxiang had never confronted her directly. Also, the Old Lady was old and if she really went to beg her, Mu Weiwei and the outside world would become soft-hearted.
The Old Lady nodded. “Okay, I will go confront her. Even if I have to beg her, I will make her give up the lawsuit and the company.”
Li Jiacheng sighed. “Mom, I am an unfilial son, how can I ask you to do such a thing, when you should be enjoying yourself?”
“That wretched girl is so unfilial that she wants to kill you, her own father.” Old Lady fiercely said.
She had not met Mu Weiwei many times since she was a child, and when she had moved here, Mu Weiwei had already left the place. So although she was her granddaughter, she was no different from a random stranger.
Zhou Meiqin glanced at the Old Lady and knew that she was willing to do anything for her son, so she continued.
“I will ask someone to keep an eye out for Mu Weiwei’s schedule these next few days, and I will drive you there when the time comes.”
But hopefully, this mother of his would not be so stupid that she would be unable to persuade Mu Weiwei.
Chapter 665: Mu Weiwei Returns
Dialogue had been aired and Li Xing’er had become the public enemy.
The Li Family had been too anxious to be able to sleep last night because of the properties of the Mu Family. They were trying to think of a way to make Mu Weiwei drop the lawsuit.
Gu Weiwei returned home from Switzerland the following afternoon.
The moment she got off the plane, she was surrounded by journalists and fans, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time.
“Mu Weiwei, is what your agent said true?”
“Mu Weiwei, did your father and Zhou Meiqin set up the car accident that happened to you and your mother?”
“Mu Weiwei, where were you living before you left home?”
…
Gu Weiwei smiled politely. “Thank you for your concern. As for the truth, I believe that the law will make a fair judgment.”
Some fans came forward with great difficulty to deliver flowers and presents, expressing their excitement.
“Weiwei, we will always support you and your movie.”
Gu Weiwei accepted the flowers and gratefully said, “Thank you, thank you very much.”
The fans could not help but tear up, when they thought of what she had been going through all this time, after finding out everything last night.
“Weiwei, good luck!”
“Weiwei, we will always support you.”
…
They followed her out of the airport and out of the passage.
Before Gu Weiwei got into the car, she bowed to them gratefully.
“Thank you, goodbye and I’ll see you at the premiere tonight.”
Having said these words, she got into the car with Song Yu and the others and went to the hotel near the place of the premiere, to get ready for the premiere that would start in three hours.
Qiu Ling, who was on the plane, had no idea what was going on in the country. She had thought that the premiere was not going to happen.
Unexpectedly, Mu Weiwei, who had been scolded online the day before, was welcomed.
What had happened in just one night?
The moment she got into the car, she turned on the phone and went to check Weibo and the news.
However, to her surprise, Mu Weiwei’s news was everywhere, and every one supported her.
Mu Weiwei’s name was at the top of the hot search list, followed by Li Xing’er.
She saw that the comments that had attacked her the day before, were all supporting her and even attacking Li Xing’er.
Also, she did not understand why people were mentioning Dialogue, but it was certain that their crisis was over and the situation had been reversed.
Before she finished reading the news, the Artist Director called her.
“Ling, have you returned home?”
“I just got off the plane and I am on the way to the premiere, Li Xing’er…”
The Artist Director was very happy and said, “Don’t worry about that, I have arranged for your agent to wait for you at the hotel. You are going to make a name for yourself in this movie, do well.”
“Well…?” Qiu Ling was confused.
An agent usually did not only have one artist and because she was just a D- or D-list newcomer, the agents were mostly with A-list artists.
It was a bit strange that he was here to take care of her.
“My agent will explain everything to you when you meet and they will be with you for the promotional event. Work is already being arranged for you.” The Artist Director said.
Sleepless stood out from more than a hundred other movies and was nominated as the main contestant of the Lugano Film Festival. With Mu Weiwei’s popularity, the box office of the movie would definitely be very high.
Then Qiu Ling would become famous too.
“…Oh.” Qiu Ling answered blankly.
Chapter 666: Mu Weiwei Returns 2
Qiu Ling and Song Yu could not react to what happened at the airport.
But Gu Weiwei had known that this would happen, so she was calm and composed.
The moment she got into the car, she texted Fu Hanzheng.
[Uncle Fu, I am home.]
He was probably busy with work or in the middle of a meeting, so she did not call him but sent him a text to inform him that she was home.
Two minutes later, Fu Hanzheng called back.
“Where are you now?”
“I am going to the hotel near the premiere, it is too late to go home.” Gu Weiwei sighed.
Fu Hanzheng asked, “What time does it end?”
Gu Weiwei thought for a while and said, “I should be home before midnight.”
After the premiere, there were still interviews to be done. Also, she was no longer the director she used to be in her previous life, and she still needed to confirm the following promotion.
Coupled with the cancelling of the movie, which was going to be released in three days, she had to make the necessary arrangements today.
“Should I pick you up?” Fu Hanzheng asked.
“No need, I can go home with Third Master.” Gu Weiwei instantly said.
He had a lot of work to do these days, and it would be a waste of time for him to pick her up.
Fu Hanzheng thought for a while. “Okay.”
He told Fu Shiqin about the work in advance, so he could go to the company later on tomorrow.
“See you at home tonight.” Gu Weiwei said goodbye to him and rang off.
The moment she arrived at the hotel, Jolin was already waiting for her with the publicity team. He said, as if he was asking for credit, “How is it? I have solved it perfectly.”
Gu Weiwei asked, “How is the schedule?”
“They removed our schedule one after another, and now they are begging us to do the screening with them. They are already making the arrangements.” Jolin proudly said.
Previously, those people had removed the screenings because of Li Xing’er, and some even said that they would never show a screening of their movie.
Since last night, everyone had been begging to play the screenings of Sleepless, and they had even canceled the screenings of I Met You in My Youth.
Gu Weiwei nodded. Now that she and the movie had reached an unprecedented level of popularity, these people would definitely be able to get something out of it. Of course, they did not need to say anything, they would be fighting to get their movie played in their cinemas.
“Where is Third Master?”
“He has just finished his work and is on his way.” Jolin said.
They two went into the elevator and went to the room. Gu Weiwei leaned herself against the sofa and asked, as she squinted, “What is Li Xing’er’s reaction?”
Li Xing’er was not going to give up so easily.
“Her agency wants to terminate the contract with her and cut off all ties with her, but Li Xing’er has not signed the contract yet.” Jolin gloated.
Gu Weiwei said, “She will definitely ask the team outside to clear her name.”
“If I had known that she would do this, Third Master would have asked someone to tell her the harsh reality. No PR team would accept her job now.” Jolin said.
He had not had the time to deal with her before, but since he now had the time, he had to do it right away.
Gu Weiwei smiled in satisfaction. “You two are quite smart.”
She did not need to tell him what to do.
“You would have had a great time slapping her across the face last night. It was a pity you did not show up.” Jolin laughed.
Gu Weiwei had been on the plane for more than ten hours and tiredly said, “A woman like her is not worth my time.”
She had intended to slap Ling Yan, but Li Xing’er had come to her first.
Chapter 667: Mu Weiwei Returns 3
“True, it is not worth wasting time fighting with such a shameless woman.” Jolin nodded and continued speaking, “The lawyer’s letter has been sent to the Li Family, and it states that they must give up all the properties.”
Gu Weiwei opened her eyes and chuckled.
“She tried so hard to take over the Mu Family’s properties but she won’t give it back so easily.”
“Countless people are supporting you for the takeover, and you also have the will. You won’t lose the case.” Jolin said.
What was more, the lawyer was arranged by Boss and so she would definitely not lose the lawsuit.
Gu Weiwei rested for a moment and started to read the promotional plan made by the promotional team, as she said to Jolin, “They are definitely going to lose in the lawsuit. I know them well enough to know that they will definitely come to me, to try and persuade me, to give up the lawsuit.”
“Give up the lawsuit? Ha! Will they still dare to show up?” Jolin sneered.
“They don’t even care about their conscience for the sake of keeping the properties, and they don’t care about saving their faces either.” Gu Weiwei snorted and said, “If I am right, the Old Lady of the Li Family will come to me and beg me to drop the lawsuit. After all, she is my real father’s mother…”
If they went to court, they would definitely lose.
So she would definitely use this method to make her give up the lawsuit.
“What about you? Will you really give up on the lawsuit if they come?” Jolin asked.
It had not been easy for her to take revenge and take everything back, so he felt that she would not give up so easily.
“Give up? Am I crazy?!” Gu Weiwei sneered.
That shameless family never knew how to repay kindness, so how could they know when to stop?
If she gave up on the lawsuit, she would have to give up the company and the properties.
She did not care about the Mu Family’s assets, but she would not leave the Li Family a single cent of anything that did not belong to them.
Jolin said, “As long as you don’t give up, the Li Family will be finished.”
Gu Weiwei read the promotional plan and said, “There must be some journalists that are investigating where I lived after I left the Mu Family. Don’t let anyone find out about the Fu Family…”
“So what? Aren’t you getting married to Boss?” Jolin mumbled.
Was being Mrs. Fu shameful?
“If they find out that I am not as strong a willed person as they thought, through experiencing homelessness, they will assume that I used someone powerful to get to where I am today.” Gu Weiwei reminded him.
Firstly, she did not want the outside world to know about her real relationship with the Fu Family, and secondly, it would not be beneficial for her to be with Fu Hanzheng at this point in time.
“Got it, I will get someone to make the arrangements and release some news.” Jolin understood what she meant.
Currently, most people were on her side after watching the show, and most of them felt sorry for her because she had lost her family and was driven out of her house.
If anyone knew that she was never homeless, but actually lived with the Fu Family, which was the richest family in Hua Land, they would no longer feel sympathy but envy.
Gu Weiwei nodded, thought for a while and said, “Just leave the schedule for the next two months. Don’t plan for too much after my birthday.”
Hearing her words, Jolin curiously asked, “What, are you getting married to Boss?”
Gu Weiwei smiled without saying a word. She had no idea what would happen, if she confessed what she was hiding to Fu Hanzheng.
Chapter 668: The Premiere of Sleepless
At six in the evening, the premiere of Sleepless started right on time in the capital.
Mu Weiwei had gained a great deal of fame, when she was nominated at the film festival and also because she was the youngest director of Hua Land. Her fame had also increased after the truth was revealed.
Therefore, more and more media reporters came to attend the premiere.
Since the fight, Mu Weiwei hadn’t received any interviews, apart from a few questions posted on Weibo.
Also, it was her agent who revealed the truth to the public last night, not Mu Weiwei.
And so, many people wanted to see Mu Weiwei, to hear about what had happened between her and the Li Family and how they were going to deal with this grudge.
Therefore, everyone was looking forward to the premiere of the movie.
Gu Weiwei and Qiu Ling rested for a while in the hotel and then started to get changed.
After Qiu Ling finished her makeup, she went to meet the others with her agent.
“Miss. Mu, Third Master, you have been taking care of Qiu Ling these days.” The agent gave them her business card and greeted Gu Weiwei and Fu Shiyi.
The fact that the movie was nominated for the Lugano Film Festival meant that the director must be very capable. She might direct other movies in the future! If possible, not only Qiu Ling, but also the other artists under her charge could be recommended to her.
Therefore, they had to maintain a good relationship.
Luckily, Qiu Ling had not tried to draw a line with Mu Weiwei because of the misunderstanding, otherwise she would have suffered a great deal.
“No, Qiu Ling is very hardworking and talented.” Gu Weiwei gave Jolin the business card and spoke with a smile.
Jolin checked the time and urged them to leave.
“Let’s go, it is starting soon.”
The makeup artist checked their clothes and makeup one last time before the assistant opened the door to let them out.
They took the car to the site of the premiere, where many fans of the main cast were already gathered around the red carpet.
However, most of them were not Fu Shiyi’s fans but Mu Weiwei’s fans.
Gu Weiwei walked onto the red carpet and showed her signature, sweet smile, greeting the fans and thanking them for their support.
“No way, have I become outdated already?” Fu Shiyi was displeased.
Gu Weiwei reminded him with a small voice.
“If you continue to rely on your face, you will become outdated.”
No matter how good-looking he was, the audience would get tired of him after a long time.
They happily walked down the red carpet and the host was already introducing the movie on the stage.
“I am sure that everyone knows that it is not easy for our movie to have a premiere today.”
“Many things have happened to our lead actress and director, Mu Weiwei. The movie was going to be cancelled, but luckily, we are still able to meet everyone today. Now, we would like to invite our director and lead actress, Mu Weiwei. The lead actor, Song Yu. The supporting actress, Qiu Ling and the supporting actor, Fu Shiyi!”
Under the introduction of the host, Mu Weiwei and the others went up and greeted the media and fans.
When the fans heard the host’s words, they all burst into tears.
Mu Weiwei had lost her family and her home and they had almost made her lose her future because of Li Xing’er.
After Gu Weiwei brought the main cast to the stage, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
While everyone was supporting Mu Weiwei, inwardly, they were also deeply hating Li Xing’er.
Chapter 669: Premiere of Sleepless 2
Gu Weiwei and the main cast told the audience about their roles and afterwards, Fu Shiyi sang the theme song of the movie, “Awakening From the Dream”, then the premiere started.
The movie lasted for a total of two hours, and the lights were turned on after the end credits had rolled.
The host stepped forward and asked the viewers, “Is our movie, Sleepless, good?”
“Yes!” Everyone answered in unison.
Gu Weiwei and the main cast returned to the stage and bowed to the audience.
The fans looked at the girl who was dressed in a simple gown. They were here to support her because they liked her acting and also because of what she had been through.
Therefore, not many people had high hopes for a movie that she had directed.
But after seeing it, they realized that their idol had never disappointed them.
Whether as a director or an actress, she truly showed her best.
It was well deserved that this movie was nominated for the Lugano Film Festival.
After the screening, Gu Weiwei and the rest of the main cast were asked questions by the media reporters and fans.
Due to the program of Dialogue the night before, she, who had been at a disadvantage, suddenly turned the tables around on Li Xing’er.
So almost all the questions were about her grudge with Li Xing’er.
“Mu Weiwei, you and Li Xing’er are half-sisters, why have you never mentioned it to anyone?”
Gu Weiwei smiled bitterly. “I don’t think it is worth mentioning. I hope that everyone is paying attention to me because of who I am and my work, not because of anything else.”
“Mu Weiwei, do you think that the car accident was an accident or planned?”
Gu Weiwei sighed and said, “First of all, thank you all for your concern, but today is the premiere of the movie, I hope that your further questions will be about the movie.”
Some media outlets gave her face and stopped asking about it.
“Mu Weiwei, you have only made two movies, why do you want to be a director? Some people who have been in the industry for decades would never want to be a director!”
Gu Weiwei said, “Compared to being an actress, I wanted to be a director more. But I was not famous enough and neither did I have any movies to become a director from, so I became an actress first, so I can learn from the crew.”
“Are you kidding me? You wanted to be an actress just to be a director?” Fu Shiyi complained.
The crowd burst into laughter and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
After the media interview, the audience started to leave.
Gu Weiwei greeted Cheng Yibai when she saw him.
“Mr. Cheng, I didn’t expect you to be here too.”
“I never expected that not only are you an excellent actress, but also an excellent director.” Cheng Yibai excitedly shook hands with her.
At the beginning, he did not believe that her work would be nominated for the Lugano Film Festival.
It was not until he saw it for himself that he realized that she was indeed capable.
If he had not seen her entering the industry, he would not have believed that she was the director.
Whether it was the script or the shooting style, they were not inferior to the top directors.
She was even better at highlighting many details than them.
“I will become prideful if you praise me like that.” Gu Weiwei smiled naughtily.
Cheng Yibai said, “You have the right to be proud.”
This movie would definitely be the most influential work seen in the Chinese film industry, this year.
And she would become the legendary new director of the film industry.
Chapter 670: Just a Kiss?
The premiere of Sleepless came to an end.
It was already past ten p.m., when Gu Weiwei and her team left the site.
When she came out of the studio and saw the fans waiting outside, she and Fu Shiyi greeted them after some discussion.
“Did you get the vouchers for dinner?”
“Yes, yes.” The girls answered one after another.
Only a portion of the audience had entered the cinema to attend the premiere, and the rest of the audience had been waiting for them outside.
Mu Weiwei and Fu Shiyi’s assistant came out with the vouchers and asked them to eat dinner at the fast food restaurant nearby. That was why they had waited for them to say thank you.
Gu Weiwei and Fu Shiyi signed the autographs for everyone and took a picture together to check the time.
“It is getting late, let’s all go home now, and make sure to be careful.”
“Okay, bye, Weiwei, bye, Third Master.” The fans watched the two of them getting into the car.
Gu Weiwei rolled down the window and said, “Those who know each other, make sure to tell each other when you are safe at home, go home now.”
After a while, Fu Shiyi said, “You are really trying your best. You have to greet the fans outside the stage every time. Can you handle the increasing number of fans?”
“I won’t take as much time to say hello.” Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
Also, her fans were very rational these days and they did not try to jump into situations and defend her.
So when she was done, she greeted them when she saw them.
“Actually, many fans are from out of town. They will be happy if we greet them and think that they did not make a wasted trip.” Jolin said to them as he drove.
Gu Weiwei asked Jolin, “What time is the work tomorrow?”
“There are two interviews and a commercial shooting after two in the afternoon.” Jolin looked at the tired woman in the rear-view mirror and said, “The work is arranged in the afternoon, you can take a good rest in the morning.”
The movie would officially be released to the public in two days and they would have to do promotional events all over Asia. They would be busy for more than a month.
So he had to leave some time for her to go on a date with Boss.
It was already past eleven p.m., when Jolin pulled in front of Landscape Villa.
Gu Weiwei, who had been so tired in the car, got out of the car the moment it stopped and ran into the house.
Seeing this, Fu Shiyi refused to get out of the car.
“Still not leaving?” Jolin urged with disdain.
Fu Shiyi said, “I don’t want to walk into the middle of a love scene.”
Needless to say, his brother and sister-in-law were kissing and hugging each other every time they met.
Gu Weiwei entered the room, ran upstairs and knocked on the door of the study. The moment the door was opened, she went up to him.
“Uncle Fu, are you done with work?”
Fu Hanzheng said, “I have one more thing to do, go back to your room and rest.”
Gu Weiwei looked up and coquettishly said, “Kiss me before you leave.”
With one hand on the half-opened door, Fu Hanzheng blocked the sight of the study and kissed her on the lips.
“Half an hour at most.”
If he was going to stay at home with her tomorrow afternoon, he would have to deal with the work tomorrow morning.
Gu Weiwei still did not want to let go. “Just one kiss?”
In the study, Xu Qian and two top managers of the company’s overseas department, tried to hold back their laughter and one of them said, “Boss, just ignore us.”
Hearing that there were other people inside, Gu Weiwei ran away in embarrassment.
“I am going back to my room now.”
Seeing her leaving, Fu Hanzheng closed the door of the study and threw a look at the men, who were trying to hold back their laughter.
“Is it very funny?”
“No, we are just continuing with our work.” One of them stopped smiling and said seriously.
It was rare that their boss asked them to work overtime, but they ended up witnessing something so lovey-dovey.
