Chapter 627: Retribution
Some of Li Chenxu's words were so inexplicable that Mu Xiaoyu didn't understand what he meant for a while.
She looked at Li Chenxu in front of her. His handsome face was now slightly furrowed, his thin lips pressed tightly together, clearly indicating that he wasn't happy. What was he unhappy about? And what was this about her smiling at Gu Yeqi just now?
She didn't seem to smile at Gu Yeqi just now.
Mu Xiaoyu really couldn't understand it, and after a long while she managed to ask, "I didn't smile at him."
"Just now when I left."
Li Chenxu immediately spoke, and as soon as he spoke, Mu Xiaoyu immediately remembered. According to Li Chenxu, she did smile at Gu Yeqi, but it was only a symbolic smile to express necessary courtesy when she left. She didn't expect that even Li Chenxu would be jealous of that.
Mu Xiaoyu was speechless. Everyone says that women become more childlike and sensitive after becoming pregnant. She herself hadn't felt any changes, but she increasingly felt those traits affecting Li Chenxu!
Isn't Li Chenxu becoming more and more like a child, becoming increasingly sensitive?
She sighed inwardly. What else could she do? If things really turned out like that, she couldn't hit or scold him; she could only coax him.
So Mu Xiaoyu took the initiative to 'admit her mistake' and explained, "Okay, I wasn't paying attention then, I'll definitely correct it in the future. However, I really didn't mean anything by smiling at Gu Yeqi then, I just smiled at him out of politeness. Besides, don't forget, he's Song Yin's man now, how could I possibly have any thoughts about my best friend's man?"
Mu Xiaoyu's apology made Li Chenxu feel much better, but he still asked, "Really?"
"Of course it's real, truer than real gold."
"Then let it go this time, but don't let it happen again."
Li Chenxu said, "How tolerant and magnanimous you are, as if Mu Xiaoyu has committed some terrible mistake."
Mu Xiaoyu couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from her forehead, feeling more and more that her and Li Chenxu's identities were reversed.
If Li Chenxu continues in this state, she'll likely have a lot to suffer in the coming decades.
Gu Yeqi watched Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu leave, and only returned to the ward after they were completely out of sight.
Song Yin had already sat up in bed and was scrolling through Weibo on her phone.
The incident of being surrounded by people in public quickly became a trending topic, followed by the word "hot". If this continues, it won't be long before Weibo's servers crash.
Song Yin wasn't surprised that this matter would trend on social media, but it happened so fast that she could hardly believe it.
After all, she's been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and while she's not an expert on Weibo's trending topics, she's at least somewhat familiar with them. This time, the trending topic appeared way too quickly.
More importantly, the video of them being surrounded was leaked. The most intense surrounding group, Gu Yeqi and Song Yin, as well as those who initially recognized them, were directly doxxed, and now the internet is flooded with insults against them.
Moreover, according to an 'insider', Song Yin was pregnant with Gu Yeqi's child, and after today's incident, she almost miscarried.
This news immediately became a trending topic again, and the criticism became even more intense.
"looking at what?"
Gu Yeqi had been sitting next to Song Yin for quite a while, but Song Yin hadn't looked at him even once; all her attention was focused on her phone. Clearly, her phone was more important than Gu Yeqi.
Upon hearing Gu Yeqi's voice, Song Yin looked up at him indifferently, then held her phone up to him, pointed to the trending topics, and said, "Our story is trending."
As Song Yin spoke, her eyes subtly observed Gu Yeqi's expression. After speaking, she paused for two seconds, as if testing Gu Yeqi, and then said, "Besides, someone has been talking about our pregnancy online. Tell me, who said it?"
Song Yin was certain that it wasn't someone from the hospital who spread the rumor. The hospital's director was a friend of her brother, and since her debut, all her health problems, big and small, had been treated at this hospital, and it had never been leaked out.
Aside from the people at the hospital, the only people who knew she was pregnant were her and Gu Yeqi.
Song Yin did suspect Gu Yeqi, but she was still very certain of Gu Yeqi's purpose in doing so. Her probing question was not out of anger, but simply because she wanted to know what Gu Yeqi was really thinking.
Fortunately, Gu Yeqi was quite honest and didn't seem to have any intention of hiding anything from Song Yin. After seeing the trending topics on his phone and Song Yin's probing words, he simply chuckled.
He looked up at Song Yin in front of him, then leaned in and lightly pecked her lips, lowering his voice to say, "Getting on the trending topics list is half thanks to our fans and casual viewers. I only used a little bit of manipulation to push it up. As for your pregnancy... I had someone spread the word. Yin Yin, are you unhappy?"
Song Yin shook her head, recalling the barrage of criticism online, and couldn't help but say, "I don't care about that, it's just that Lu Ren... he seems to be in a rather pitiful state..."
Song Yin didn't have much sympathy. Sometimes, curiosity is fine, but if it goes too far and harms other people's interests, you have to be prepared to make a mistake.
Seeing that Song Yin wasn't angry, Gu Yeqi breathed a sigh of relief. Recalling what happened this morning, a sinister coldness flashed in his eyes.
He wasn't inherently kind; it was just that his upbringing and work required him to always present a sunny, youthful image as a facade. Song Yin was now someone he wanted to cherish and love, someone he himself couldn't bear to hurt in the slightest, yet she had been wounded so badly by those people. What he was doing now was already the lightest punishment he could receive.
However, he didn't want to expose his most wicked side to Song Yin, lest Song Yin develop a certain opinion of him.
Gu Yeqi thought for a moment, then said with a smile, "I don't know why it turned out this way. I left this matter to my manager and assistant, and I didn't expect things to escalate to this extent. But, isn't this a lesson for them? What if others get hurt because of this, and they're not as lucky as us? How much of a blow would that be to them? So, in a way, we're actually doing a good deed, aren't we?"
