In just a few minutes, the top trending term on Weibo was quickly replaced by a new one and became an instant hit, attracting the attention of all netizens. At the same time, many celebrities’ Weibo accounts also came online to share the news.

Jiang Jingyou announced his retirement

[? ? ? ? ? ]

[Brother, what are you doing? Today is not April Fools' Day!]

[Brother! You said your account was hacked, tell me now! Tell me now! (Grabbing the collar) (Shaking wildly)]

[Retract, I will pretend I have never seen this Weibo!]

[Are you crazy? What’s going on tonight? One melon after another keeps popping out. I haven’t even finished one yet, and here comes another?]

[What happened? Why did you suddenly announce your retirement?]

[So celebrities can also be emo late at night? I thought I was the only one who would go crazy late at night and post on WeChat Moments saying I wanted to quit...]

[November 2026, 11, please remember this date. Today will go down in history as the first year of gossip in the entertainment industry, and the most hectic day in the history of gossip, and we are all witnesses.]

[God damn it, I only have one day off!!! How can I close my eyes and sleep tonight!!]

Even Jiang Xu was surprised by Jiang Jingyou's sudden withdrawal from the entertainment industry.

In his estimation, it is only a matter of time before Jiang Jingyou retires from the entertainment industry. Ruan Meng's incident has made him lose interest in filming, Jiang Yuntian gets divorced, and Yuntian Group goes bankrupt. These things happen one after another. It is impossible for Jiang Jingyou to continue to stay in the entertainment industry and be the praised actor.

But the Yuntian Group hasn't gone bankrupt yet. He has retired from the entertainment industry, and his agent is probably cursing at home.

Jiang Jingyou soon received a call from his agent, the volume of which was so loud that

"Jiang Jingyou! Are you crazy? What does Ruan Meng's matter have to do with you? He is in this situation by himself, why are you joining in the fun???"

"How do you want me to end this for you now? Tell me, tell me!"

"Since Ruan Meng entered the entertainment industry, how many stupid things have you done for him? How many times have I helped you deal with the director? Do you still want to shoot this drama?"

"No more filming. Just follow the contract process. The penalty for breach of contract will come from my personal account." Jiang Jingyou said calmly.

"Okay, okay, then tell me what to do with the studio. What will we do with so many people? Do you still want this studio?"

"I said I'm going to quit, and I'm going to quit completely. I won't give you any less money."

"What are you going to do with the other business deals you've already accepted? Are you going to cancel each contract and pay for each one? Even if you want to quit the industry, can't you not do it so suddenly? At least clear up the work on hand, give an explanation to the fans, and leave with dignity, isn't it better? What do you want now? Do you know how much the compensation for breach of contract for those business deals is?"

Jiang Jingcheng glanced over while driving and frowned slightly.

Jiang Jingyou was annoyed by his agent and said impatiently, "I can afford the compensation. You are the agent I hired and I am the boss of the studio. You just follow my decision and I will not change my decision. That's it. You can start to deal with the studio's affairs."

After saying that, he hung up the phone. The evil fire in his heart grew stronger and stronger. He simply turned off the phone and threw it to the back row, not wanting to contact anyone.

"Are you sober?" Jiang Jingcheng asked indifferently.

"Ah."

The alcohol will only last for a short while, and then your head will become clear after the alcohol is digested.

"Your agent has a point. Even if you want to retire, you should take care of your current work. The penalty for breach of contract with your worth is at least several hundred million. Even if you are rich, you can't squander it like this. What's more, you have spent money lavishly over the years. After liquidation, your assets may not be as much as the penalty."

Jiang Jingyou closed his eyes and turned towards the car window. "It's just a few hundred million. Even if it's more than ten billion, I can afford to lose it. Isn't it easy to make money? I won't change my decision easily, not to mention that I've already said it. Can I take it back?"

"You're always like this. You've been impulsive since you were little, and you haven't changed until now." Jiang Jingcheng looked at the night ahead and sighed imperceptibly, "Jiang Jingyou, your life is still too smooth."

Jiang Jingyou sneered: "Oh, do you think I am doing well now?"

Jiang Jingcheng stopped talking about this topic and asked, "Did you quit because of Ruan Meng?"

There was silence in the car for a while.

"Not entirely. Another part is... because of Jiang Xu."

Jiang Jingcheng looked at him in surprise: "What does your retirement have to do with Jiang Xu? Are you still blaming him?"

"no!"

Jiang Jingyou's expression became unnatural. He grabbed a handful of hair randomly and said, "What can I blame him for? He hasn't done anything to let me down. It's just me, I can't get over it. Meng..."

"In order to compete with Jiang Xu, Ruan Meng even fabricated lies to throw dirty water on Jiang Xu. Jiang Xu didn't do anything to offend him. When we talk about the frictions in our childhood, a large part of the reason was because of us."

"The public opinion online is all about Jiang Xu. I am doing this just to divert everyone's attention to him."

All the words that were pent up in my heart came out with that opening.

"Brother, I have thought about it a lot these days. If I have to say sorry, it is our family that is sorry to Jiang Xu. We have been influenced by this since we were young because our parents said that Jiang Xu is a disaster star and Ruan Meng is a lucky star. They don't like this brother who is connected to us by blood. But what did he do wrong?"

"What era is this? How can you still believe in these supernatural things? Can an unborn child control a car accident?"

"If you insist on saying that, wasn't Aunt Zhuang also pregnant in the car at the time? Why didn't she say that the car accident was bad luck brought about by the baby in her belly?"

"If our parents didn't love us when we were little, and we had to watch them fall in love with other people's children, would we be able to balance it?"

Jiang Jingyou became more and more annoyed as he spoke.

Jiang Jingcheng's brows furrowed more and more, his hands holding the steering wheel gradually tightened, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.

He opened the car window and let the cold wind of early winter blow on his face. The car was quiet for a while before his voice was heard, difficult and dry in the cold wind: "…Such a simple truth, why did it take us so many years to understand it?"

"Jiang Xu is our younger brother who shares the same blood with us."

A suppressed sob was faintly heard from the seat next to me, followed by two crisp slapping sounds.

Jiang Jingyou pulled down his baseball cap to cover his face. The 1.80-meter-tall man curled up in the passenger seat, letting the tears flow down his face. He tasted bitterness at the corners of his mouth.

The cold wind rushed into the car, as if it had pierced a hole in people's bodies, whistling constantly at their hearts, making it almost impossible to breathe.

But Jiang Xu has experienced this kind of pain for who knows how many years. This is the feeling he gets every time he sees Ruan Meng and them being affectionate, right?

They suddenly remembered the smile on Jiang Xu's face the day he left home.

He was really happy that day.

I have lived in the Jiang family for more than 20 years and have never been happier.

His wounds were not healed until he left the Jiang family.

……

The effect of Ruan Meng's lie lasted less than half an hour, and soon someone came out to clarify. It was the middle-aged man in the photo with Jiang Xu.

The other party's attitude in clarifying the matter was very tough. They directly sent a lawyer's letter to sue Ruan Meng's small account for spreading rumors, infringing on her reputation and portrait rights, and had already called the police.

The number of reposts, comments and views of that Weibo post far exceeded the standard for filing a case.

As soon as the lawyer's letter came out, Ruan Meng panicked and hesitated for a long time whether to delete the Weibo post.

If he didn't delete it, he was afraid that the police would come to his house and expose it, but if he deleted it, it would be like he helped Jiang Xu clarify the incident with the sponsor.

He had finally made Jiang Xu stand at the center of public opinion and be scolded by everyone. Was he really going to give up this opportunity so easily?

Ruan Meng gritted her teeth, suddenly remembered something, and clicked on the official Weibo of Si Group. Seeing that its last blog post was from last year, she felt a little lucky and thought:

The incident has become such a big deal online, but Si Yanli has not come out to clarify anything about Jiang Xu. Doesn't he like Jiang Xu and want to marry her? Why is he so indifferent?

He began to doubt how much Si Yanli's love was genuine.

Maybe it was just a temporary novelty. To Si Yanli, he had seen all kinds of outstanding people. How could he be interested in Jiang Xu, who was just a pretty face?

Just like when he was a kid, he liked video games for a while at Jiang's house. For this reason, Uncle Jiang spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to decorate a video game room for him, and all the equipment was the best.

But when he got tired of it, no matter how good the equipment was, it couldn't keep him back. He left it there for a long time without anyone paying attention to it.

He was only briefly infatuated with her for two months.

How long can Jiang Xu keep Si Yanli?

Ruan Meng went to check Jiang Xu's Weibo again and found that he hadn't made any move at all. She began to fantasize more and more in her mind.

He imagined that Jiang Xu was arguing with Si Yanli at this time and had no time to pay attention to the online public opinion.

Perhaps the lie he made up came true, Jiang Xu did have an unusual connection with the pot-bellied middle-aged man.

If it weren't for netizens' in-depth research, he wouldn't have known that the man had actually invested in Jiang Xu's new drama.

What kind of relationship would allow a businessman to invest millions in an actor who hasn't really become famous yet?

Such a fantasy is a passionate intracranial orgasm.

Having suffered too many setbacks at the hands of Jiang Xu, Ruan Meng would not miss any opportunity to suppress Jiang Xu. Immersed in such fantasy, he became more and more relaxed.

He specifically clicked on Jiang Xu's negative entries, happily reading Jiang Xu's bad comments and getting so addicted to them that he missed other trends on Weibo.

Jiang Jingyou’s retirement from the entertainment industry almost overshadowed all the hot searches in the entertainment industry.

In this heat, tonight’s Guava Fashion Dinner has become a hot topic, and many popular stars have appeared in the article.

Because of the popularity of the financial sponsor scandal, Jiang Xu's entry became the most popular among these stars.

What everyone who clicked on saw were videos and photos of Jiang Xu appearing at the banquet in a deep V suit and slicked-back hair.

Jiang Xu’s big fan sneaked in, urgently edited the photo and posted this nine-grid Weibo.

Jiang Youyu: Ignore the rumors, come and see the handsome guy! ! Brother, you really made me feel numb tonight! Fortunately, I was at this banquet, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to feast my eyes on this look that is more stunning than a catwalk! What is a deep V denim?! I’m dreaming about this tonight!

[My brother is so handsome in the gap of a melon field!]

[Ahhh, I will never call her Xuxuxubao again, this is totally the temperament of a peerless general attacker! The look in her eyes when she noticed the camera made me burst into tears! If this isn’t the chosen one, then what is it!]

[Deep V! I can’t even imagine how beautiful the view is under those buttons! Is this something I can see?]

[Sister, you are really capable to be able to attend this banquet. My damn powerful comrade...]

[How should I put it? I can only maintain this bit of virtue thanks to the money in my pocket. If I had money, I would definitely not be a good woman. If I were at the scene, I would definitely not be able to control my thieving hands. I would rush over and unbutton my brother's deep V suit, letting the sisters feast their eyes, and then hehehehe...]

[Then open the lid and eat! ]

[Then you were taken away by the police! You even opened the lid and ate it. You really are… not afraid of my brother seeing it (holding your forehead and smiling bitterly)]

[Although, you little brats, please tone it down a bit, is there no one on the Internet that you care about?]

[I am dying of laughter. You fans are really brainless. Your brother would just lie on someone else's bed without any clothes on in private, and he doesn't even mind the dirt. Tsk tsk tsk.]

[Get lost! Do you want to receive a lawyer’s letter too?]

[Lemon dogs, go back to your own super topic climax, stop barking everywhere, it's such a day and you're still making up dirty rumors for others, aren't you disgusting?]

[Reported, idiot. Smile.jpg]

Jiang Xu was scrolling through this Weibo post, smiling slightly, then he turned on the front camera of his phone and took a selfie facing the light.

Edit Weibo on Weibo and publish with one click——

I've seen it all, but you guys just need to take a look, I have a girlfriend, who is as handsome as me. [Picture]

"Ding-dong-"

Fang Minghan's phone received a special Weibo notification. He opened it and immediately widened his eyes. He repeatedly checked the Weibo content and the account yellow V. He looked at the Weibo and then at Jiang Xu: "Are you going to make this public?"

"Yeah," Jiang Xu nodded nonchalantly, "The atmosphere has become so heated. If I don't announce that I have a boyfriend, I'll be wasting this great opportunity to get attention."

Fang Minghan was speechless for a long time. To be honest, it was really hard for him to match Jiang Xu's train of thought, but he had to admit that someone who was more relaxed than him appeared.

"But you uh... you really don't need to discuss this with Yanli?"

"What are you discussing with him?" Jiang Xu raised his head and said in a very casual tone, which shocked Fang Minghan. "In the relationship between him and me, I have always been the one in charge."

"What—" Fang Minghan widened his eyes, he understood, he understood everything.

Then he burst into laughter, shaking with laughter, which attracted many people at the banquet who had seen Jiang Xu's Weibo and were already talking about the topic to look in their direction.

Then they looked at each other. It was obvious that they did not understand why Jiang Xu, a new actor who had just become popular but was obviously still on the rise, would directly announce his relationship.

Is this a case of wanting to be forgotten just after becoming popular?

At another corner of the banquet, Guan Shanhai, who was about to seek comfort from Jiang Xu, saw this Weibo post and a bitter smile appeared on his lips. He really had no chance at all.

"Hey?" Someone asked him, "Lao Guan, you and Jiang Xu are filming together, do you know who he is talking about? If he uses the word handsome, it must be a man, right?"

"Wow, you're really brave. It's not uncommon to see gays, but there aren't many who are so open about it."

"Am I the only one curious about who it is? A man as handsome as Jiang Xu."

Guan Shanhai smiled but said nothing. He knew it, but could he say it?

Outside the hotel, a black luxury car with a little golden man logo slowly stopped.

The car door opens——
