Part Two: *Eastland Big Sugar* Chapter 23: Hanging a Novice

he city temporarily.Because it's near the Chinese New Year, even hotels in the county town are almost full. Finally, I found a resort hotel at the foot of the mountain. It's a bit remote, but the envi..."No," she said. She was sitting next to Bao Sang, right by the entrance.

Here a big star sitting in line, especially with the eye-catching Gu Ruandong standing beside her, quickly caused a sensation. At first, it was just a few bold customers who came over to take pictures with her. Seeing that she was approachable, more and more customers wanted to take pictures with her. She smiled and refused, saying that taking pictures was not possible, but signing autographs was okay.

She remained calm and composed, sitting there. The people who were originally queuing for food simply formed a new line to wait for her autograph. Many customers from nearby stores also came over, making it resemble a signing event. The entrance of Baosang's shop was completely blocked.

Gu Ruandong had no choice but to help maintain order beside her, focusing on protecting her safety. The little girl would occasionally get upset, and he was completely helpless against her tantrums. She needed an outlet for her frustration, so he had to find ways to soothe her.

Bao Sang, seeing this, threw the pen in his hand into the inkwell with a clang and walked up to her: "Are you deliberately here to disrupt things"

To block off her restaurant entrance like this, how can she do business

Lu Yaoyao seemed to be startled, her big, deer-like eyes widening in surprise as she looked at Bao Sang.

"Excuse me, I'll move over a bit."

Her polite and humble manner was heartbreaking, especially for the fans queuing up to get her autograph. They shouted to Bao Sang:

"What's your attitude Is that how you treat guests"

"This is the entrance of the store, a public space in the shopping mall, she can sit wherever she wants."

When one person starts shouting, others follow suit, the sound rising and falling like waves.

Bao Sang had never paid attention to the entertainment industry before. In her eyes, these celebrities were just a bunch of actors, and in recent years, she found it even more difficult to understand the mentality of fans who defended their idols.

She wasn't in a good mood to begin with: "Are you blind Can't you see she's here to sabotage me"

Lu Yaoyao said she was very scared, clutching Gu Ruandong's clothes: "Let's go."

He even sheepishly bowed to the fans queuing up ahead for autographs: "Sorry, I'll make it up to you another time."

Their eyes were filled with tears, a mixture of shame and embarrassment, deeply apologetic to their fans.

Bao Sang was about to roll her eyes. She despised this kind of fake vulnerability, it made her skin crawl. She couldn't stand it any longer and blurted out, "Gu Ruandong, is this the kind of woman you married"

I'm so disappointed, if he were to marry someone who excelled her in every way, she wouldn't have a word to say. But look at this Lu Yaoyao, she was relatively normal during the three times they met before, but today is she broken She's leaning weakly and bonelessly against Gu Ruandong.

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Ruandong's eyes turned cold and he gave her a warning look. The entire entrance of the restaurant fell silent like death. After a few seconds, someone in the crowd started angrily cursing Baosang.

"Why are you still swearing"

"This is the service attitude of a well-known chain restaurant"

"Absolutely boycott, I'm never coming back here again."

Gu Ruandong also pulled Lu Yao yao's hand, squeezed out of the crowd, and took the elevator from the employee channel to the underground parking lot.

Lu Yaoyao didn't say a word, got into the car and then said, "I'm sorry!"

"What's wrong" Gu Ruandong tugged at his collar, tearing off the bandage on his neck.

“She was really acting just now.” She did it on purpose. Who could blame her when he lied to her He opened a store right in front of her place and said they had no connection If she hadn’t decided to come support his mall opening, wouldn't he have gone to eat at her restaurant after the ribbon-cutting ceremony Have a few more drinks together

Gu Ruandong looked serious: "Yaoyao, I've told you before, your identity is different from ordinary people. Your safety is always the top priority. With so many people surrounding you just now, don't you think it was dangerous"

He wasn't angry, just hoping she would be as safe as possible.

"I'm not a porcelain doll, I won't break if you touch me."

Just as they were talking, Lu Yaoyao's phone rang. It was Hao Jie calling.

"Yao Yao, what happened Why were you kicked out of the restaurant"

Hao Jie's voice came with surprise.

She spent the whole morning working on a press release, just getting their couple's lovey-dovey news and short video onto the trending topics list. But in less than an hour, another trending topic directly climbed up and was hung in second place.

Title: Lu Yaoyao was driven out of the restaurant and cried in grievance.

"No, no, it was a misunderstanding." Lu Yaoyao hastily denied, she had just gotten carried away in the moment and hadn't expected things to escalate like this.

"Where are you Want to come to the company for a bit Right now, your fans online are starting a boycott of this restaurant. The hashtag for boycotting this restaurant is currently ranked third on the trending list. It's not our operation, it's all because of genuine clicks pushing it up there."

The videos circulating online now show Lu YaoYao's polite and humble apology, as well as Bao Sang scolding everyone for being blind.

Lu YaoYao has always been perceived as a delicate and spoiled young lady who has never experienced hardship. This persona is deeply ingrained in the public's mind, so when she gets scolded, fans feel genuine sympathy, while onlookers enjoy the drama even more.

"I'm heading back to the company right now." Lu YaoYao pressed her forehead against the back of the front seat, knowing she had really messed up this time and felt utterly ashamed.

Gu Ruandong was also taken aback that it would cause such a huge stir online. On the first day of the mall's opening, the restaurant used to attract traffic was boycotted by the entire network, and the negative impact on the mall needless to say.

But the most important thing is that Baosang's video is spreading all over the internet, which is extremely dangerous. How many enemies or people hiding in the shadows will know immediately that she has been released from prison.

Both people in the car were silent. Lu Yao Yao felt guilty. She hadn't expected to expose a stranger online, let alone cause Baosang to be cyberbullied.

But Gu Ruandong didn't blame her, he felt self-reproach. The peaceful days had lasted too long, making him lose his sharpness, this could have been completely avoided.

"So after taking her to the company, I patted her head and said, 'Don't overthink it, no one blames you. I'll go back to the company and have the driver send you home tonight.'"

"OK."

Haojie saw her dragging her head to the company, she thought she had really been bullied. She also watched the video, Baosang's expression of ferocity and disdain was particularly striking.

So I quickly comforted her: "It's okay, honey. We can't let her bully us for nothing. I'll spend some money to keep these hot searches trending."

It also serves as a warning to the mistress, making it clear that she can't be bullied by anyone. Haojie is convinced that Baosang is the mistress.

Lu Yaoyao came and left quickly. When she saw Bao Sang on the top floor, she was indeed furious at being tricked, so she deliberately interacted with fans at the door. However, she did not approve of fans putting ordinary people online for cyberbullying.

"Hao Jie, I'll release a statement, it was all a misunderstanding."

"Wait a minute." Haojie was browsing the internet when she saw that the three hot searches about her had suddenly disappeared, vanished without a trace.

She searched for keywords, even using Baosang or Lu Yaoyao's names to post a Weibo, but it was blocked and couldn't be sent out.

"Gu Ruandong took down the hot search"

Only he has such ability. the front pages of all entertainment sections. The reason was simple: for several consecutive days, he was photographed having dinner with actress Liao Liao and entering and exiting hotels together.Z...
