Shen Tang received a notification from her agent saying that the company was preparing to whitewash her image.
Unlike those who had cursed people and accidentally liked posts, her recent behavior was somewhat silly, so it would be easy to clear up.
The company's water army and marketing accounts went into action. The comments were almost one-sided, all feeling that Shen Tang was funny.
Even the old photos that anti-fans had previously enlarged with a microscope of her making eye contact with a male artist were now changed from her liking him to her simply being a face fanatic.
It had to be said, the entertainment industry had so much real and fake, it was impossible for outsiders to distinguish. You only saw what people wanted you to see.
To be honest, Shen Tang was a little surprised. She had thought the company was going to completely ignore her. It seemed she still had utilitarian value.
It would be good to make use of the company’s resources for free. Although she wanted to retire from the industry, if her image could be restored, that would be great.
Pei Kesong repeatedly urged, "Don't randomly log into Weibo these days."
"Don't worry, next time I surf the Internet, I’ll definitely use my alt account," Shen Tang said, also a little scared. Fortunately, she hadn't posted anything she shouldn't have posted this time. Cough cough.
Just as she was talking, Shen Tang thought of those fans who had bravely confronted anti-fans to defend her. She couldn't let them work for nothing.
So she stealthily logged into her main Weibo account and sent several big red packets to fan groups.
[It's the real Tangtang!]
[Ahhh such big red packets!]
[Tangtang darling, I love you, mwah.]
Shen Tang simply replied to them a few times before hurriedly logging off Weibo again. She didn't want to cause trouble out of nothing.
Perhaps from playing on her phone for too long, her hand was starting to hurt a little. Shen Tang quickly put her phone away.
Soon after, Gu Huaian pushed the door open and entered.
Shen Tang's face turned red from tension. That was a close call, she almost got caught.
Gu Huaian raised an eyebrow. Caught doing what?
"You're not sleeping yet? Why is your face so red?" He casually leaned in and put his hand on Shen Tang's forehead. "No fever."
Shen Tang blushed even more from him touching her head.
Damn, how could anyone have such a nice voice! Her ears were going soft.
However, Shen Tang remembered the main issue and glanced at his wrist from the side of her eye. It seemed he wasn't wearing a watch?
"Where's your watch?"
"Hmm? I forgot to put it on after showering. What's the matter?"
"Nothing. I just asked randomly."
Shen Tang sighed to herself. When did she become so anxious and doubtful?
This wasn't good.
Men were just an adjuvant in life, they couldn't become the center. Loving someone required loving oneself first.
As Shen Tang looked at Gu Huaian’s perfectly sculpted face, she suddenly felt at peace. With a face crafted so meticulously by the Creator, who couldn't love it...
Gu Huaian's lips curved up slightly. This girl was still as lustful as always, even when injured.
Shen Tang voiced her doubt, "Oh right, why did you come over so late?"
"I finished up work and came to see you. Where's your phone?"
Since he said he had finished up work, then that was that.
It wasn't that Shen Tang blindly believed Gu Huaian, but he had no need to lie.
Suddenly she felt happy. "It's under my pillow."
Gu Huaian took out the phone and touched it. It was still hot. He said in a mocking tone, "Looks like you were on it quite a bit."
Shen Tang's eyes shifted around evasively. "No I wasn't. Just played for a bit..."
She felt a little nervous inside. Surely her phone hadn't heated up so quickly that it would be confiscated now!
Gu Huaian didn't say anything else, only, "Don't play so long tomorrow. It’s not good for your wound recovery."
"Got it..."
The cold CEO suddenly becoming like a teaching director felt a bit unfamiliar.
Gu Huaian: "..."
He really wanted to let her experience what a real teaching director was like.
Shen Tang mulled it over and suddenly felt that blindly guessing was useless compared to directly asking the person involved.
"Um... I saw on Miao Miao’s timeline that your white moonlight is back. Didn't you go pick her up?"
Shen Tang looked calm on the surface but was extremely anxious inside. The sugar daddy wouldn’t think she was prying too much right...
"Who?"
"White moonlight."
"Who is white moonlight?" Gu Huaian pressed between his eyebrows. "I remember telling you last time that I don't have a white moonlight."
Shen Tang lightly coughed. "That girl called Lotus or something. She looks very beautiful with good temperament."
Very suitable for you.
However, Shen Tang didn't voice out the second half of her thoughts, not knowing what she was thinking.
Gu Huaian ruffled Shen Tang's hair. "Have you been secretly reading romance novels?"
"Huh?"
"How else could you imagine such things?"
Gu Huaian explained, "Our families are business partners, so we inevitably have contact, but I haven't had any private interactions with her. I just showed my face at the banquet today before returning to work."
Shen Tang desperately held back the corners of her mouth that desperately wanted to rise up. "I see..."
Gu Huaian flicked his finger at the tip of Shen Tang's nose. "Go ahead and laugh if you want."
This action caused both people to freeze up momentarily. It was a little too intimate.
"Um..."
"I..."
They both started talking at the same time, and an awkward atmosphere permeated the surroundings.
"What did you want to say?" Shen Tang asked, averting her gaze.
"I'll be very busy the next few days. Aunt Tao will come to take care of you."
"Oh..."
She felt a little disappointed but still understood. After all, he still had a huge company to manage.
Gu Huaian ruffled Shen Tang's hair again. "Don't overthink!"
"Ow, you're messing up my hair!"
Shen Tang felt a little annoyed. Her hair was almost a bird's nest now.
The corners of Gu Huaian's lips curved up slightly again. "Alright, I'm going. Rest early."
After Gu Huaian left, with the nurse's help, Shen Tang simply washed up and got into bed counting sheep. She didn't know when she fell asleep.
In a daze, she returned to the real world and saw her unmoving body lying in the hospital room with various tubes inserted into it. She had lost some weight.
Shen Tang tried entering her body but couldn't integrate in.
She tried a few more times but still failed.
During this time, the nurse came in a few times, and her friends had come once too. Their expressions couldn't hide their grief.
A pain suddenly pierced Shen Tang's heart—if she never woke up again, her friends would definitely be really upset...
For a moment, she really wanted to return to this body.
A voice sounded in her ear: "Are you sure you want to go back?"
Shen Tang woke up in shock, her body drenched in cold sweat. "It was just a dream..."
She still remembered what the voice had said after—If she returned to the real world, she could never come back here again.
Shen Tang didn't rashly agree; she didn't feel this was an ordinary dream. She was afraid that if she agreed, she really wouldn't be able to come back.
To be honest, she felt conflicted now.
Logically, she should go back, but she had more money here!
Money she couldn't earn in an entire lifetime in the real world.
Plus the plot was different from before now. As long as she properly stayed for two years, she could leave with money.
It was just a pity that such a perfect man like Gu Huaian could only be seen and not touched.
Shen Tang clicked her tongue. The more she thought about it, the more regretful she felt.
Out of habit, she reached for her phone to relieve her anxiety by looking at some fresh bodies. She suddenly remembered what happened yesterday and embarrassing pulled her hand back.
Forget it, she should abstain recently.
