"She's not up yet, don't wake her." Shangguan Du was very unhappy that he looked for someone as soon as he woke up.

"How did you know my sister wasn't awake?" Gu Xun pressed.

"She didn't sleep well yesterday after attending a charity gala. She didn't turn off the lights until after 3 a.m., and she's going back to the film set this afternoon," Shangguan said.

Gu Xun walked back, stretched, and plopped down opposite him, leaning back on the sofa. "How do you know so much about my sister, that strong woman?"

She sat up straight, crossed her legs, and looked at the man opposite her.

Last night, this man simply handed him over to his subordinates without saying a word.

He was so gentlemanly and polite in front of his sister, and quite gentle, but as soon as she wasn't around, he became a completely different person, radiating a cold aura that made people instinctively back away.

Gu Xun's current impression of him is that his face is still good-looking, especially when he looks at people without any expression. He is incredibly charming, with thin muscles and long legs, but he has a terrible temper and doesn't have any redeeming qualities.

Gu Xun became increasingly dissatisfied with the idea, and with a light snort, her phoenix eyes were full of provocation as she said, "There are plenty of people pursuing my sister, but do you know how formidable they are?"

Shangguan Du looked away from the notebook and gazed at him, his affectionate peach blossom eyes now tinged with a light, ruthless glint.

When Gu Xun saw that he was finally looking at her, she raised her eyebrows arrogantly, her expression somewhat similar to Gu Qingyan's.

"What? You're one of them too?" Shangguan Duqing tapped his notebook.

“That’s my sister,” Gu Xun said with a look of utter disbelief. “Who would pursue their own sister for no reason?”

"No blood relationship."

“We’re not related by blood, but I’m more than a brother to him.” Gu Xun said, raising his hand in a salute with a proud, wicked smile.

Shangguan Du turned his gaze back to the screen. "How old are you?"

“19, oh, young and energetic.” Gu Xun blew on his bangs.

"How did you meet Qingyan?" Shangguan Du asked casually.

This made Gu Xun wary. He picked up a grape from the table and ate it. "Don't listen to my nonsense. If you want to know, ask my sister, hmph!"

Shangguan Du chuckled lightly, tapped the edge of the notebook a few times with his index finger, and suppressed the urge to throw the person out.

……

Gu Qingyan lay on the bed, pressing her palm against her forehead.

I pulled my phone from beside my pillow; it was still flooded with messages.

My phone started ringing incessantly again.

There are about ten unread messages on Jiang Yan's profile picture.

Sheng Xuanyue has had many endorsements suspended, and all her appearances have been temporarily halted.

Unable to find Gu Qingyan, Shen Wenxi called Jiang Yan and asked her to relay that after Sheng Xuanyue was ridiculed online, she locked herself in her room, refusing to eat or drink, and was in a poor mental state.

Gu Qingyan casually scrolled down the messages.

On major social media platforms, the topic of Sheng Xuanyue remains highly popular.

Gu Qingyan raised an eyebrow and replied in the group chat: 【Okay.】

Several seconds later, she threw off the covers and got out of bed with an icy expression.

I walked barefoot to the bathroom.

Gu Qingyan went downstairs after washing up.

As soon as he entered the living room, Shangguan Du saw her, immediately put his laptop on the coffee table, stood up and walked towards her.

"Why are you getting up? I'll get you a cup of milk tea!"

Shangguan Du lowered his gaze, which fell on her feet.

The next moment, those dark, deep eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of danger.

Gu Qingyan took a step back expressionlessly.

Seeing his discomfiture, Gu Xun scoffed, "Looks like you're not so great after all."

Shangguan ignored him.

Helpless, he turned and walked away.

Gu Qingyan sat down on the sofa, and Gu Xun immediately followed and sat down next to her, showing a very obedient smile, "Good morning, sister."

"It's getting late, we should go back." Gu Qingyan sat a little further away, looking disgusted.

Shangguan Du returned, carrying a pair of pink slippers, and reached out to put the shoes on Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan simply hooked the slippers over, slipped her feet in, and they fit perfectly!

"We're going back." Gu Qingyan looked up at him.

Upon hearing Gu Qingyan's words, Gu Xun immediately went to the entrance, took off his shoes, and changed back into his own.

Seeing that she had put on her shoes, Shangguan Du smiled and said, "Aren't you going to finish your breakfast before you leave?"

"No, my agent made hot pot for me to eat when I get back."

Shangguan Du stood there looking at Gu Qingyan, "Aren't you going to invite me to eat with you?"

Hearing this, she sighed inwardly, but her expression remained calm. "Master Du, we have only simple food and many people. We're afraid you won't be able to eat it, so we won't serve you any more."

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Gu Xun frantically pounding on the shadow of Shangguandu with a small hammer.

After saying that, she walked out.

"Oh ho, hot pot." Gu Xunhuan saw Gu Qingyan leave and immediately chased after her. After that, he looked around carefully and kept talking, as if he had no control over his mouth.

He kept pestering Gu Qingyan for a response, otherwise he would hold Gu Qingyan's hand and shake it, calling her "sister" endlessly.

Shangguan Du watched the two figures walk away, his eyes gleaming as he stared intently at Gu Qingyan's retreating back, as if trying to see something inappropriate!

Shangguan Du pursed his lips.

My blood started to rush through my body.

Aren't you going to call me?

They didn't say I couldn't go!

……

As soon as Gu Qingyan opened the door, she heard voices inside.

"Shen Yechu, are you sure you can handle this?"

One sound was enough to tell that it was Shi Mubai's roar.

"Holy crap, my brother's house has so much equipment." It was Fu Zhihan.

"Holy crap, isn't this the first prize for the new high-end challenge mode in 'God of War'?" Shi Mubai was even more excited now.

"Holy crap! Qingyan, where did you find this puppy? How did you know I was thinking of signing a guy?" Jiang Yan turned around and saw Gu Xun.

Jiang Yan immediately dropped what he was holding and came over, grabbed Gu Qingyan's wrist, stood in front of Gu Xun, and grinned lewdly. Gu Qingyan couldn't bear to look at him.

"Hey, what's your name, handsome young man? Why didn't Qingyan introduce you?"

Gu Qingyan could tell from the lewd smile on her face that she wasn't spouting anything good.

"Let me give you a piece of advice: give up your idea," Gu Qingyan said, brushing her hand away with a look of disgust.

Jiang Yan's agent has managed many artists, including award-winning actors and actresses.

Currently, she only has Gu Qingyan as an artist, which causes her a lot of worry, but she feels it would be a huge loss if she didn't take advantage of something beautiful.

Needless to say, Gu Qingyan knew that she was planning to lure Gu Xun into the entertainment industry.

But could Gu Xun be just an ordinary puppy?!

That child looks like a little devil who likes to do whatever she wants. If Jiang Yan really signs her, then she can only pray for good luck!

"How will you know if you can succeed if you don't try? Everyone has to have dreams!" Jiang Yan automatically interpreted Gu Qingyan's words as, "The little puppy has more personality!"

Pretending not to see the disdain in Gu Qingyan's eyes, she took a step back, crossed her arms, and carefully examined Gu Xun before suddenly catching up with him.

Gu Xun has already begun touring Gu Qingyan's house.

A few seconds later, Jiang Yan caught up with Gu Xun. "Little puppy, wait for me, I'm coming."

Hearing the noise, Gu Xun turned around, glanced at it, and immediately took off running.
