Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

After resolving Mrs. Yu's matter, Yang Ke was able to focus on dealing with Xu Huanshan's situation.

"Sister Gu, Brother Huanshan..."

That day, on his way to Gu Jia's company, Chen Xu couldn't help but offer a reminder.

"Tell me, Chen Xu, is Huanshan having a bad day at work and taking it out on a client again?"

Gu Jia assumed that Xu Huanshan's recent arguments with her were due to work troubles, so she didn't pay much attention and instead asked Chen Xu about it.

"Sister Gu, Brother Huanshan, he, um, he might be having an affair."

Chen Xu hesitated for a moment but still spoke up.

Chen Xu is Chen Yu's younger brother, while Zhong Xiaoqin is Gu Jia's best friend. The two were college classmates, which is why Chen Xu was arranged to drive for Xu Huanshan.

But in reality, he has always been on Gu Jia's side, including telling Gu Jia about Li Ke's situation.

"???"

Gu Jia was stunned.

She had thought about everything, but this was the one thing she hadn't considered.

"What happened? Tell me about it."

Gu Jia was surprised, but she kept her composure and asked Chen Xu.

"Here's the thing."

"Recently, our company received a big order from the owner of an amusement park in a third-tier city. It seems that Brother Huanshan has gotten together with the female secretary of that amusement park owner."

"That day they went out drinking and I was waiting downstairs when I saw Brother Huanshan coming out with his female secretary."

"If that were all, it wouldn't be a problem, but Huanshan didn't let me drive him out for the next two days, nor did he go to the company, so..."

Chen Xu also recounted what happened.

"But that doesn't mean anything, does it?"

Gu Jia frowned slightly, but still chose to believe Xu Huanshan.

"Yes, I was out having dinner with some good buddies when I happened to spot them coming out of the hotel. This is the photo I took."

Chen Xu also handed the phone to Gu Jia.

Gu Jia fell silent, closed her eyes, and said nothing more.

She remembered that last night, Xu Huanshan said that he had a bad talk with the amusement park owner and drank too much because he was in a bad mood. Gu Jia didn't think much of the perfume smell on his clothes.

Now it seems that this is exactly what happened last night.

She hadn't paid much attention to Xu Huanshan these past few days because she was busy doing business with the wives' group, and she never expected that her house would be robbed.

This made Gu Jia a little nervous, and Chen Xu was too scared to speak when he saw the scene.

"We'll talk about it at the company."

"Chen Xu, don't tell anyone about this. Let me ask first."

After lying down, Gu Jia thought for a while and finally reminded Chen Xu of something.

"Okay, Sister Gu."

Chen Xu understood the seriousness of the matter, nodded obediently, and continued driving towards the company.

As soon as the two arrived at the company, Gu Jia stormed towards Xu Huanshan's office, but before she could even get angry, things were already being smashed in Xu Huanshan's office.

"Damn it, that bastard!"

Xu Huanshan grew angrier the more he thought about it. If he hadn't still had a sliver of reason left, he probably would have smashed the computer.

"Huanshan, what happened?"

Gu Jia's face was icy cold, but she still asked Xu Huanshan about it, wanting to know what had happened.

"The boss of the order I took previously has blocked me."

Xu Huanshan sat down on the ground in a slump and said dejectedly.

When he took this order, he wanted to prove something to Gu Jia. In fact, because of Gu Jia's inquiry, he didn't sign any specific contract with the client.

Now that the other party doesn't want to cooperate, he has no way to do anything and will even lose money on the materials he ordered.

Actually, it's nothing. If there's an order, those materials can be used.

The key issue is that they had already fallen out with General Manager Wan, so how could they still have business with him?

Xu Huanshan had worked hard on the design for a week, intending to show it to the amusement park owner and make Gu Jia proud, but he never expected this to happen.

Have you thought about why your boss blocked you?

Gu Jia thought of Chen Xu's words, her face darkened even more, and her tone became extremely cold.

"How would I know? I wanted to ask him myself. That bastard, I used to call him brother, and he said he appreciated my design and was going to give me a big order."

Xu Huanshan, of course, was unaware that his secret had been exposed. He thought that his boss was just playing a trick on him. When Gu Jia questioned him like that, he immediately got angry.

"You and that person..."

Before Gu Jia could finish speaking, the office door was pushed open.

"Huanshan, what's wrong?"

Just then, the door to Xu Huanshan's office opened, and a young girl walked in.

"Who are you? What are you doing at our company?!"

Gu Jia recognized her at a glance as the female secretary from Chen Xu's previous photo. Seeing that this young girl dared to come to her territory, she immediately scolded her.

"Gu Jia, what are you saying? This is the amusement park owner's secretary. She just happened to be here, and I also want to ask her what's going on."

Xu Huanshan was unaware that Gu Jia had discovered his affair and even defended his female secretary.

He really wanted to figure out what had happened, because losing that order would put his fireworks company in big trouble.

"Xu Huanshan, you're a scoundrel!"

"He cheated on me, and now he's defending this woman?"

Gu Jia instantly exploded, grabbed the landline phone from her desk and smashed it at Xu Huanshan, then ran out of the office in tears.

Xu Huanshan was stunned when he heard this, not understanding how Gu Jia had found out.

After all, the two of them only went to a hotel last night after drinking too much, how could Gu Jia know?

In fact, all of these things were arranged by Yang Ke, including this female secretary, who is a veteran actress.

Seeing what happened to Xu Huanshan, she immediately comforted him and stopped him from going to see Gu Jia.

Meanwhile, Gu Jia was mentally broken.

She never imagined that Xu Huanshan would dare to cheat on her, and now the company has lost a big order because of him.

After the female secretary resolved the matter, she called Yang Ke to discuss it.

"Yes, I've transferred the money to you. I trust you're professionals."

Yang Ke also offered a reminder.

He doesn't want to see his female secretary anytime soon, otherwise he'll easily be exposed.

"Don't worry, boss, we won't be in Shanghai anytime soon, unless you have new instructions."

After finishing her speech, the female secretary gracefully went to the airport, boarded the plane, and headed to another city.

Gu Jia, on the other hand, went home and didn't want to see anyone.

When Xu Huanshan returned, he tried to explain, but she wouldn't listen. Helpless, Xu Huanshan could only wait for Gu Jia to calm down, hoping to explain himself in a way that would make sense.

It's a pity that Chen Xu took his picture; how could Gu Jia believe him?

"Let's get a divorce."

Gu Jia woke up on the second day and opened the door to Xu Huanshan.

"Wife, I was wrong. Even if you don't care about anything else, you should at least think about Ziyan."

Xu Huanshan truly regretted it, mainly because he learned from Chen Xu on his way back that Gu Jia had seen the photos, and he no longer dared to make excuses.

"I work so hard to maintain the family for you, even working as a maid in the wives' group just to bring in business for the company."

"But what about you? You actually cheated on me."

"If you hadn't slept with that female secretary and gotten caught, would her boss have blocked you?"

Gu Jia grew angrier the more she thought about it, mainly because she felt wronged.

Doesn't she know what kind of person she is among the wives and girlfriends?

But with no business at the company and no kindergartens to look for, Xu Ziyan's only option was to join the wives' club.

Thinking of this, Gu Jia really couldn't stand it anymore.

After saying that, she packed her things and left home. As for Xu Ziyan, she had told the nanny to send her to her parents' house for a few days yesterday, so she didn't know about the argument between the couple.
