Chapter 776: Strange Gaze
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Gu Ning was done admiring her own beauty, she finally rose and made her way outside, with Gu Chun hastily trailing behind.
As soon as the two of them left, the makeup a.s.sistant who had just finished doing Gu Nings makeup could not help but mutter, “Gu Ning is not easy to serve, is she? She’s only been on the set for two days, and she’s scolded the a.s.sistant several times, every time so harshly. They even promote her as a gentle big sister outside. It’s just ridiculous.”
The makeup artist glared at the a.s.sistant and said, “Focus on your work and stop talking. Do you even know who the Gu Ning you’re talking about is? She’s the young lady of the Gu family in Beijing. Is she someone you can criticize? Next time, if you speak without restraint like this again, you won’t be working with me anymore.”
The a.s.sistant immediately shrank back and mumbled, “l didn’t know her background.”
The makeup artist shot the a.s.sistant a cold look before collecting her tools.
In the entertainment industry, as a makeup artist or stylist, one should keep their mouth shut. That was professional ethics.
Otherwise, the ambiguous traces of romance unintentionally revealed by Gu Ning would likely spread all over the internet the next day.
After all, just the day before, Gu Ning had said in an interview that she was single.
Once Gu Ning stepped outside, the fierce expression on her face instantly vanished, replaced by a warm and friendly one. She knew that two fan clubs were coming to shoot some material with her.
With a smile on her face, Gu Ning approached Lu Lin and said in a gentle voice, “Teacher Lu, who is this?”
Upon hearing Gu Nings voice, Lu Lin furrowed his brow in disdain and did not respond. Instead, Shen Xi turned her head with a curious expression to look at the person who was speaking.
Gu Ning froze in her tracks when she saw Shen Xi’s face. Shen Xi in pink hair was something Gu Ning could not have antic.i.p.ated.
Shen Xi did not expect to encounter someone she had met before, but she was a bit puzzled as to why Gu Ning still had the same apprehensive reaction as their first meeting.
“Gu Ning? Is that you? What a coincidence,” Shen Xi graciously greeted Gu Ning.
Lu Lin, who was standing beside them, asked nonchalantly, “Xi, do you know her?”
Shen Xi nodded and said, “It takes a little friction to become acquainted.”
Lu Lin thought that Shen Xi had been bullied by Gu Ning and immediately got concerned. However, Shen Xi leaned in closer to his ear and whispered, “Bro, don’t worry, I’ve got this. I’m the one who hit her.”
Lu Lin’s instantly calmed down and casually responded, “Oh.”
Then, Lu Lin leaned closer to Shen Xi!s ear and whispered, “Stay away from her. She’s quite cunning, and I’ve heard she bullies people a lot.”
Gu Ning watched Shen Xi and Lu Lin whispering to each other in front of her. She knew they were probably talking negatively about her.
In Gu Nings heart, a sense of frustration welled up. She was undeniably in a position that many could only dream of reaching, yet she found herself bowing low in front of Shen Xi. The humiliation of it all surged through her, igniting a fiery rage throughout her entire being.
Shen Xi raised an eyebrow and asked, “Gu Ning, are you afraid of me?”
Gu Ning quickly concealed her emotions, forced a smile, and retorted, “Well, you did have someone hit me the first time we met. Shouldn’t 1 be afraid?”
Gu Ning reminded herself not to be afraid. She was no longer Jiang Xue. She was the young lady of the Gu family, and she no longer had to fear Shen Xi. Shen Xi would not recognize her.
Shen Xi tilted her head slightly, and with her thumb and forefinger, she absentmindedly stroked her chin as if in deep thought. After a moment of contemplation, she spoke, “Is that so?”
A smile graced Gu Nings face as she responded, “Well, what else can it be? After all, which young lady in Beijing is as domineering as Shen Xi? 1 believe I’m not the only one who would be afraid. Many daughters of prestigious families must also feel the same.’
Lu Lin pondered for a moment and nodded with a serious expression, saying, “It seems like it’s true. Four years ago, you caused quite a scene at Ye Yu’s engagement party, but neither the Guan family, the Ye family, nor the Li family held you accountable. So, everyone acknowledged your strength as the young miss of the Shen family, Shen Lu.”
Thinking of Shen Lu, Lu Lin could not help but burst into laughter. “They say your name is Shen Lu. Hahaha.”
Shen Xi chuckled along with Lu Lin, offering a hollow laugh before turning back to glance at Gu Ning-
Even though the explanation made sense, Shen Xi still found Gu Nings gaze a bit strange.
In the end, Gu Ning hastily took her leave. When Shen Xi left, she kindly took the doc.u.ments with her as it was unsafe to leave the company’s files on set..
