Chapter 1267 Rat crossing the street
Chapter 1267 Rat crossing the street
Overnight, he went from being a sought-after movie star to being a hated rat that everyone wanted to kill.
"Yunchuan, what should we do now?" Jiang Mubai asked worriedly.
Cheng Yunchuan took a deep breath, his eyes firm: "When the enemy comes, we will fight back; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Mu Bai, believe me, I will protect you."
He understood that now was not the time to retreat, he had to cheer up and protect Jiang Mubai for his own future.
Cheng Yunchuan began to actively look for new opportunities. He contacted directors and producers he had worked with before, hoping to get some roles.
However, the Qin family was so powerful that almost no one dared to offend them, and Cheng Yunchuan encountered obstacles everywhere.
At the same time, Qin Yuanqing's attacks became more and more fierce. She bribed the internet trolls to spread all kinds of rumors about Jiang Mubai on the Internet, portraying her as a woman who would do anything to get to the top.
Jiang Mubai's Weibo comment section was overwhelmed with abuse and insults. The fans she once prided herself on also unfollowed her and some even turned to attack her.
Jiang Mubai felt heartbroken when she saw these vicious comments. She didn't understand what she had done wrong to have to endure such malice.
Cheng Yunchuan felt distressed when he saw Jiang Mubai's increasingly thin face. He knew that he had to turn the situation around as soon as possible.
He began to contact the media, accept interviews, and clarify the facts. He even did not hesitate to expose his own family scandals and reveal the darkness of the Qin family just to protect Jiang Mubai.
However, the Qin family was too powerful, and Cheng Yunchuan's efforts did not produce much effect.
Just then, an unexpected person appeared.
"J?" Cheng Yunchuan looked at the flashing avatar on the computer screen, somewhat incredulous.
"Long time no see, K." the other party replied.
J and K are core members of the world's top hacker organization and each other's only friends. They have fought side by side and completed countless impossible tasks.
However, a few years ago, J suddenly disappeared without a trace, and Cheng Yunchuan always thought that she had left this circle.
"You're back?" Cheng Yunchuan asked excitedly.
J replied: "I'm back, I heard you were in some trouble recently."
"How do you know?" Cheng Yunchuan was a little surprised.
"There's nothing in this circle that I don't know. Do you need help?" J's tone was a little mysterious.
Cheng Yunchuan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. He knew that J's ability was enough to turn the tide.
"Okay, help me check Qin Yuanqing's recent movements, and also help me find the mastermind behind spreading the rumors."
J replied: "No problem! But in exchange, you owe me a favor."
Cheng Yunchuan smiled and said, "Deal."
With J's help, Cheng Yunchuan seemed to have found his backbone. He believed that he would soon be able to bring Qin Yuanqing to justice and clear Jiang Mubai's name.
However, what he didn't know was that the appearance of J would completely change his and Jiang Mubai's lives.
One night, Cheng Yunchuan and Jiang Mubai were having dinner at home when suddenly the doorbell rang.
Cheng Yunchuan got up to open the door, but saw a familiar figure standing outside.
"Mubai, long time no see." The person who came was Jiang Mubai's ex-boyfriend, Gu Yan.
When Jiang Mubai saw Gu Yan, his face turned pale instantly and the chopsticks in his hand fell to the ground.
Cheng Yunchuan's face also darkened. He stood in front of Jiang Mubai and asked in a cold tone, "What are you doing here?"
Gu Yan smiled and said frivolously: "Is it okay for me to come and see my old friend?"
His eyes wandered over Jiang Mubai, with a hint of aggression and provocation.
Cheng Yunchuan clenched his fists tightly, and anger burned in his chest.
At this moment, Jiang Mubai suddenly spoke up: "Gu Yan, go away, it's over between us."
Gu Yan seemed not to have heard her words. He walked straight into the house, sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked like he was not going to leave.
Gu Yan smiled frivolously, his eyes wantonly sweeping over Jiang Mubai, as if admiring a private property that belonged to him: "Old friend? Mr. Cheng, you take yourself too seriously, don't you? It's not your turn to interfere in what's going on between Mubai and me."
Cheng Yunchuan's face became even gloomier. He took a step forward, almost touching Gu Yan's face, and said in a cold tone: "Gu Yan, I warn you, Mu Bai is my wife now, you'd better show some respect."
Gu Yan raised his eyebrows provocatively, with no intention of backing down: "Wife? Where's the marriage certificate? Take it out and let us see it. It can't be fake?" He deliberately dragged out the last syllable, his eyes full of sarcasm.
Jiang Mubai took a deep breath and tried to suppress the panic in her heart. She knew that Gu Yan's appearance was no accident. He must have been instructed by Qin Yuanqing to deliberately sow discord: "Gu Yan, what do you want to do?"
Gu Yan pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes: "What can I want to do? I just came to see if you are doing well. After all, you were once my treasure."
As he spoke, he reached out to touch Jiang Mubai's hair.
Cheng Yunchuan quickly grabbed Gu Yan's wrist and twisted it hard. Gu Yan screamed in pain and his face became distorted in an instant.
"I'll say it again, Mu Bai is my wife. If you dare to be disrespectful to her again, I promise you will regret it." Cheng Yunchuan's voice was low and dangerous, like a warning from hell.
Gu Yan grimaced in pain, but still refused to give in: "Cheng Yunchuan, who do you think you are? Do you think you can really protect her? I tell you, you are not worthy of her at all!"
Jiang Mubai shouted, "That's enough, Gu Yan. It's over between us a long time ago. Can you please stop pestering me?"
Gu Yan sneered: "End? Do you think it's over just because you say it's over? Mu Bai, have you forgotten the vows we made? Have you forgotten everything we've been through together?"
Jiang Mubai's face turned even paler. She closed her eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and forced herself to calm down: "Gu Yan, those are all things of the past. I don't remember them anymore."
"Can not remember?"
Gu Yan laughed out loud as if she had heard a funny joke: "Jiang Mubai, you really are worthy of being a movie queen, your acting skills are really perfect! Do you think you can get rid of me by pretending to have amnesia? I tell you, no way!"
"Gu Yan, what do you want?" Jiang Mubai's voice was trembling, and she felt like she was about to collapse.
Gu Yan put away his smile, his eyes turned sinister and vicious: "I want you to come back to me, I want you to be my woman again!"
Cheng Yunchuan couldn't bear it any longer, he punched Gu Yan in the face. Gu Yan staggered and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"You dare to hit me?" Gu Yan covered his face and looked at Cheng Yunchuan in disbelief.
