She recounted to Gu Qinian the threats Gu Linxi had just made on the phone, ending with indignation, "I didn’t expect her to really send you those things. Is she even part of our Gu Family? Treating family like an ungrateful watchdog!"
"It’s the sa old story. Grandma and you heard she wasn’t doing well in Capital City, so you kindly asked her to co back. But she’d rather fix cars outside than co ho. I just don’t get it, how can she be so ungrateful..."
She continued to grumble to Gu Qinian, saring Gu Linxi, completely unaware that Gu Qinian’s temples were already throbbing with angry veins.
"Why are you provoking her!"
Gu Ran was inexplicably yelled at and felt extrely wronged, "I didn’t provoke her, she, as an elder sister, is bullying her own sister. I already apologized to her! But she just won’t let it go. What else can I do? Didn’t you hear the tone of her voice on the phone, so assertive, as if nothing happened to her. She didn’t lose anything, yet she keeps holding it against , sending you all kinds of ssy things. What can I do? You can’t expect to bow down to her, can you?"
Gu Qinian, flustered and covering his forehead, took a full minute to digest all this, finally coming to a resolution, "Xiao Ran, just do as she says. I’ll call her later."
"?"
Gu Ran doubted her ears, questioning in surprise, "Dad, you want to post a statent online to apologize to her? No way. I won’t do it. What are you thinking, if I post that statent it’s like admitting to the whole internet that I lied on the show. Tomorrow is the 30 to 15 competition, my votes are approaching the 8th place, posting a statent now, I’ll surely be heavily criticized... Dad, you said you supported entering the entertainnt industry, gilding myself a bit, boosting my reputation, making it easier for to marry a good man in the future, which would benefit our family business. Why are you asking to apologize at this ti? I certainly can’t apologize."
She indeed didn’t enter the entertainnt industry to beco an award-winning actress or superstar, she just wanted to gain so fa. Otherwise, with her family background in Lin City, there was no need for her to earn money in entertainnt. Last ti she was rejected by Cui Jiangjing. After going back, the family discussed and realized that relying solely on their current background wouldn’t be enough to reach soone like the Cui Family.
But under her father’s hands, the Gu Clan’s developnt could only barely maintain an appearance of prosperity in these recent years, with no real progress possible.
They had to think of another way.
Later, she thought of Rong Yan’s thod of climbing up using Gu Linxi’s friend and proposed her idea of entering the entertainnt industry to her family.
Her family discussed it and also agreed with her proposed thod. After all, if she married into a good family, the Gu Clan’s company could benefit from it.
Wasn’t this the plan all along?
Gu Ran really couldn’t understand what her father was thinking, asking her to listen to Gu Linxi.
"Make the statent!" Gu Qinian was not swayed, his attitude firm, leaving no room for negotiation: "If you want the Gu Clan and to be alright, don’t ask so many questions! Issue the statent as she said!"
"Dad!" Gu Ran couldn’t accept it, she shouted, "I won’t do it. If I post it, I’ll be scolded to death."
After all, she was his own daughter. Gu Qinian softened his voice, coaxing her: "Nuannuan, listen. I will find a way to pull so strings for your debut, bribe the program team to get you a spot."
