Chapter 122: Are you holding a script for a light-hearted drama
Chapter 122
Chen Yun gradually stopped crying with Gu Sang's company, recalling the various details of their time together, her resolve growing stronger.
She took out her phone and called the Scumbag Man.
The moment the call connected, she heard him say "Hello" with a thick nasal tone.
Chen Yun felt as if she had been slapped in the face. It hurt, it hurt so much.
She had run out in her pajamas, without any money or ID, and yet he was sleeping soundly!
How could he sleep so peacefully?
Chen Yun took a deep breath: "Let's break up. I've saved about seventy or eighty thousand with you over the years. When are you going to return my savings to me?"
Unexpectedly.
The Scumbag Man's next words infuriated both people on this side of the phone.
How could he be so shameless as to say these words?
"Chen Yun, are you talking nonsense because you haven't woken up in the middle of the night? I've been working hard to save money to marry you, and now you're telling me you want to break up?"
"Which of your nerves is misfiring?"
"Fine, if you want to break up with me, that's okay, but I don't have any money. You're the one who brought up breaking up, and all these years, everything you've eaten and drunk was paid for by me. How dare you ask me for money?"
Chen Yun was trembling with anger, her sadness and grief replaced entirely by fury.
She immediately cursed: "You bastard, that money is what I worked hard to earn. If you embezzle it, I'll sue you."
"Sue me, huh? Well, your family asking for such a high bride price is just selling their daughter."
"You're a used shoe that's been slept with for seven years, a second-hand goods. Do you deserve such a high bride price? Eight hundred and eighty thousand for a bride price? I never realized you were so materialistic before!"
"Your whole body isn't even worth eighty thousand!"
"You've slept with me for so long, if you leave me, you'll only be able to marry someone from your village at a depreciated value."
"I'm different. I've already been admitted to graduate school, my future prospects are limitless."
Hearing these words from the Scumbag Man, Chen Yun turned pale with anger, wanting to cry but unable to.
She had been with this man for so many years, only to realize today what a disgusting piece of work he was.
It was bad enough that he despised her, but worse, he had embezzled her money!
Gu Sang couldn't listen anymore. She grabbed Chen Yun's phone and started cursing.
Gu Sang directly spewed profanities: "Your mother's an idiot, and you talk about limitless prospects? Doesn't your family have a mirror for you to see what a sorry excuse for a human you are? I @#&@&@......."
"If you don't return the money, then let's go to court. I'd like to see if you can keep that job you just got."
"Idiot, come get your bag tomorrow!"
Gu Sang didn't give the Scumbag Man a chance to react. After a barrage of insults, she immediately hung up the phone.
Afterwards.
She comforted Chen Yun while helping her analyze the situation and how to get the money back.
Chen Yun had transferred money from her own bank account to the Scumbag Man every month. They just needed to print out the bank statements, which was a bit troublesome but could be used as a record for evidence.
Even if the Scumbag Man wanted to embezzle this money, they could always buy a loudspeaker and publicize his actions at his company.
The Scumbag Man was about to become a civil servant.
The authorities would surely focus on examining his character.
The only difficult part was that it wouldn't be possible to calculate the finances clearly, considering their shared expenses. Chen Yun might only be able to get back half of the money in the end.
Early the next morning.
Gu Sang called Lu Mufei.
The two of them accompanied Chen Yun to move all her belongings to Gu Sang's house. As for that bag, Chen Yun threw it at the Scumbag Man.
The Scumbag Man tried to cause trouble, but seeing the tall and strong Lu Mufei, he immediately cowered.
Back at home, Chen Yun said with red-rimmed eyes, "Sang Sang, thank you for taking me in temporarily. Don't worry, I'll find a place to live once I get my paycheck this month."
Gu Sang replied, "Stay here for now, no need to rush. I'm going out of town for a shoot tomorrow anyway."
So Chen Yun stayed at Gu Sang's place. They cooked and shopped for groceries together, occasionally taking walks downstairs.
In the evening.
Chen Yun was taking a shower in the bathroom.
Gu Sang connected with the Elder Princess online.
The Elder Princess looked tired and weary. Upon seeing Gu Sang, she got straight to the point about the situation in Liujiang City.
Elder Princess: "Based on the current situation, it's clear that the manpower I brought is not enough."
"This flood has come with unusual ferocity, and many citizens have been injured."
"Moreover, possibly because it's the first time making lifeboats, and under such time pressure, the condition of the lifeboats isn't great. Sometimes they leak, and soldiers have to rescue the flood victims one by one to bring them ashore."
"There's a large amount of branches, dead chickens, and dead pigs floating in the river. One wrong move could cause injuries......"
This time, the Elder Princess personally led the team, bringing all the imperial physicians except for one left in the plague city, along with the female guard squad.
But there were too many injured people, far more than initially anticipated who needed to be rescued.
It wasn't just rescue personnel that were lacking, but also lifeboats, craftsmen, and medical staff.
In short, the Elder Princess was in short supply of everything right now.
"This isn't a good time, we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate," Gu Sang comforted her. All she could do was share modern rescue knowledge and lifeboat manufacturing techniques with the Elder Princess.
She had done her best!
Now she could only pray that the flash flood would arrive a day later!
Just one more day would give them more rescue opportunities.
The Elder Princess said with a determined look, "Alright, you don't need to worry. Focus on your filming, and help women wake up earlier through the portrayal of past wars."
"Leave this to me. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, I won't give up on any citizen!"
-
The next day.
Chen Yun saw Gu Sang off at the airport, only reluctantly returning after watching her go through security.
This time, the plane live stream avoided Liujiang City and started broadcasting to several other new cities, causing ancient people seeing a plane for the first time to shout in amazement.
The ancient people in the new cities stared in awe and exclaimed: "It's true! The news from the capital was actually true! There really are great objects that can fly in the sky in the future!"
"I've seen it! It's so stunning! Can such wonderful places really exist in this world?"
"Immortal! Where are you going? Are you heading to the Celestial Court?"
"......."
After a series of excited discussions, the plane arrived at its destination.
After disembarking.
The person arranged by President Tang escorted Gu Sang to check in at the local hotel.
The filming was scheduled for the next morning. While Gu Sang was reviewing the script in her room, her female roommate, who was also an actress, opened the door and entered with her suitcase.
Seeing that she would be sharing the room with Gu Sang, a flash of excitement passed through the roommate's eyes.
She took the initiative to introduce herself: "Gu Sang? Haha, I finally get to meet you today! Hello, hello, my name is Cheng Yuanyuan."
"Hello," Gu Sang greeted the girl. This girl hadn't been to the training base for preparation before.
This was their first time meeting.
Cheng Yuanyuan stared at Gu Sang with shining eyes and said, "Your previous incident was all over the news. At that time, I was worried that this drama might not be filmed anymore."
"Fortunately, fortunately, you explained everything in the news."
"Also, Gu Sang, the way you told off those people was so cool! Haha, seeing those reporters rendered speechless by your words was absolutely amazing. You must have been reading from a script for a feel-good drama!"
