"Uh..."
Hearing Wu Fan's confession, and seeing him kneel on one knee with a gift, Chu Weiyang froze.
This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Yes.
Although she was as beautiful as a celestial being, this was the first time in her life that she had been confessed to.
Because she was Chu Wansong's daughter.
During Chu Weiyang's middle and high school years, Chu Wansong not only arranged for dedicated people to escort her to and from school but also constantly monitored her situation at school. If any boy tried to approach Chu Weiyang, Chu Wansong would have a chat with that boy's parents.
The result of this was that boys who had feelings or intentions towards Chu Weiyang would go home and receive a beating with a belt, and then stay far away from Chu Weiyang.
After Chu Weiyang became an adult, she attended university and worked as an artist. Chu Wansong no longer strictly controlled his daughter's romantic life. However, whether at school or in the entertainment industry, no one dared to pursue Chu Weiyang.
At school, besides being the daughter of the Chu family, Chu Weiyang was also a popular superstar. Ordinary students who lacked life experience did not have the courage to pursue her, and wealthy young men dared not make a move due to their fear of Chu Wansong.
As for the entertainment industry...
The entertainment industry was the most chaotic circle. Everyone was very casual about intimacy. There were constant instances of couples on set, late-night script discussions, and affairs.
Both male and female artists faced many temptations.
Female artists, for resources, wealth, or fame, would humble themselves before sponsors, directors, or producers decades older than them. Naturally, they did not mind sleeping with handsome young idols, finding both spiritual and physical pleasure in intimacy.
Although male artists knew that female artists were often promiscuous, they would not refuse the temptation of a night of pleasure or a short-term partner when lonely.
No male artist could guarantee that they would be able to control themselves while dating Chu Weiyang. Therefore, they dared not pursue her.
Otherwise, if they got together with Chu Weiyang and then messed around with other female artists or fans, they would face Chu Wansong's wrath. At best, they would be expelled from the entertainment industry; at worst, they would be castrated or disappear from this world!
Wu Fan also could not guarantee this. However, his boss had issued a strict order: if he failed to complete that plan, he would be blacklisted, or even forced to sell his body in nightclubs!
"Say yes, say yes!"
"Get together, get together!"
While Chu Weiyang was stunned, loud shouts once again erupted from the venue. Fans of both sides roared with all their might, hoping that the on-screen couple would become a couple in reality as well.
The sudden shouts brought Chu Weiyang back from her daze.
For some reason, at this moment, Chu Feng's words from three days ago, that her father Chu Wansong wanted her to be with Jiang Wuming, echoed in her ears.
This made her feel inexplicably panicked. She couldn't help but glance at the private box where Jiang Wuming, Chu Feng, and Huangfu Weixia were, and then nervously replied to Wu Fan:
"Wu... Wu Fan, I think you've misunderstood. I've always only considered you a partner. Thank you for the gift, but I cannot accept it!"
Swish!
Hearing Chu Weiyang's response in astonishment, Wu Fan's expression changed drastically. The hands holding the gift trembled, almost dropping it.
Although he had mentally prepared himself to some extent, being publicly rejected by Chu Weiyang made him feel like he had fallen into hell!
This not only made him lose face and would become a topic of discussion and ridicule in the entertainment industry but, more importantly, he would be unable to complete the task assigned by his boss!
The fans also fell silent instantly.
Although they wished for Chu Weiyang and Wu Fan to get together, this was ultimately their business, and they had no right to decide anything.
They quietly watched Chu Weiyang and Wu Fan on stage, waiting for the situation to unfold.
"Weiyang, I was too abrupt. I won't disrupt your work."
Wu Fan stood up, put away the gift, and said apologetically before turning and leaving the stage.
"Damn it, this pretty boy actually wants to be my brother-in-law? Is he worthy?"
In the private box, Chu Feng couldn't help but curse. Then, he looked at Jiang Wuming with a sly smile, as if to say, "Brother-in-law, you don't have to worry!"
Seeing Chu Feng's cunning smile, Jiang Wuming's heart stirred, recalling Chu Wansong's suggestion.
Huangfu Weixia also seemed to notice something and wore a thoughtful expression.
The interlude of Wu Fan's confession to Chu Weiyang caused some commotion at the concert, but soon, Chu Weiyang continued her performance, immersing the audience in this auditory feast with her melodious singing.
At 10:30 PM, Chu Weiyang's concert concluded.
Jiang Wuming and Huangfu Weixia followed Chu Feng to the backstage, preparing to take Chu Weiyang with them for a late-night snack.
"Brother Wuming, Weixia, Little Feng, you're here."
In the backstage room, Chu Weiyang had just changed her clothes and hadn't had time to remove her makeup. Seeing the three of them enter, she greeted them proactively.
"Weiyang, you sing so well," Jiang Wuming praised with a smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Wuming," Chu Weiyang thanked him shyly.
"Weiyang, is that Wu Fan a scumbag?" Huangfu Weixia asked.
"I... I don't know, but I don't like him."
Chu Weiyang first shook her head, then stated her attitude.
"Sis, if that scumbag dares to harass you again, tell me, and I'll break his third leg!" Chu Feng said fiercely.
Although he knew that Wu Fan's public information was very clean, he had just asked the CEO of the entertainment company under the Qing Zi Tou organization and learned that people in this circle had very chaotic private lives.
"Bang bang—"
As soon as Chu Feng finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in," Chu Weiyang said.
"Miss, the artist named Wu Fan is outside and said he wants to see you. Will you see him?" A burly man wearing an earpiece pushed the door open and respectfully asked Chu Weiyang.
He was a bodyguard specially assigned by Chu Wansong to protect Chu Weiyang's safety. Everyone who met Chu Weiyang had to be screened by him.
"Let him in."
Before Chu Weiyang could speak, Chu Feng gave the instruction first, then said to Chu Weiyang, "Sis, this is a good opportunity to warn him and make him give up this idea."
"Okay."
Chu Weiyang thought about it and felt it made sense, so she didn't object.
A minute later, Wu Fan arrived at the backstage room and was surprised to find Jiang Wuming, Chu Feng, and Huangfu Weixia in the room with Chu Weiyang.
Having failed in his confession, he decided to execute his most wicked plan: invite Chu Weiyang for a late-night snack, get her drunk, or even drug her, and then take advantage of her!
"Weiyang, you've been singing all night, you must be tired. Shall we go for a late-night snack? I know a very good place."
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Wu Fan directly ignored the other three and invited Chu Weiyang again.
"Faggot, you're asking my sister out for a late-night snack in front of my brother-in-law? Are you looking for death?"
Chu Feng stepped forward, glaring at Wu Fan.
As he spoke, Chu Feng unreservedly released his aura as a seven-star martial artist.
"Thump—"
Wu Fan, as if greatly shocked, immediately collapsed on the ground.
He didn't know that Chu Weiyang had a boyfriend!
He actually asked Chu Weiyang out in front of her boyfriend and brother?!
"S... Sorry, I..."
At this moment, he felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. An icy chill ran through him from head to toe, and his body trembled uncontrollably. He was filled with extreme fear!
He tried to explain something, but he couldn't even speak clearly, his upper and lower teeth chattering.
"Faggot, remember, stay away from my sister from now on, or I'll kill you. Get out!"
Chu Feng stepped forward, lifted Wu Fan like an eagle carrying a chick, warned him fiercely, and then threw Wu Fan out of the room.
Brother-in-law?
At the same time, Huangfu Weixia looked at Jiang Wuming and Chu Weiyang in shock.
Chu Weiyang's face was flushed red, and she wished she could find a place to hide.
First, there was Da Xiong's confession, and then the little brother's timely assistance.
Jiang Wuming felt a headache coming on!
