Chu Wu turned her back and smiled as she answered the phone, speaking in a gentle and soft voice.
"Baby, you..."
"What’s going on online? Do you have a boyfriend?"
The man’s voice carried a hint of displeasure.
"No, believe me." Chu Wu tearfully said, "Actually... I can’t tell you."
"What’s really going on? Tell me the truth, I will definitely believe you."
Hearing Chu Wu’s sobs, the man’s tone softened.
Chu Wu deliberately hesitated for a few seconds before slowly speaking.
"Actually, he’s my sister’s boyfriend. Ever since she brought him home for a meal, he’s been attracted to me and kept pestering me. The photo was also forced by my sister. She kept threatening me with it. I never thought she’d use me to block the rumors this time. It’s just my misfortune that I’m not anyone of significance, how can I compare to a big star like her."
The man spat.
"And she thinks she’s a star? My company can find ten of her type in a day. I can’t believe she, as your sister, would hurt you like this. I’ll give you justice."
"Baby, no need. It’s enough that you care. I’ll handle my own matters; I don’t want you to worry about me."
Chu Wu worried he knew too much.
He was a chauvinistic man, unable to tolerate any transgressions.
If he knew she took her sister’s boyfriend, he certainly wouldn’t want her anymore.
"No way, you’re my woman, and I won’t let you suffer." The man retorted.
Chu Wu thought for a moment and, as if overwhelmed with joy, choked up: "Well, there is something we can exploit. My sister offended a celebrity, and that celebrity’s extreme fans mistook me for her and pushed me downstairs, breaking my leg. Since then, I haven’t been able to dance. Maybe we can use this incident."
"Which celebrity? Tell me, and I’ll surely know." The man said.
"I don’t know, my sister wouldn’t tell me. In the end, this thing just fizzled out, and later my sister got some good roles."
Chu Wu implied that Chu Yin used her injury to threaten the star for roles.
The man snorted coldly: "Your sister is really so cunning, and you’re just too naive to be tricked like this."
"I’ve been like this since I was a child. Maybe our parents think I’m too easy to bully, so they care a bit more about me, and as for my sister..."
Chu Wu started crying.
The man heard her cries and immediately tried to comfort her.
"Alright, don’t cry. I’m here. Recently, whatever you like, I’ll buy it for you."
"Okay, but I don’t want name brands, I want something of yours."
Chu Wu’s voice revealed a girl’s shyness.
The man asked, "I’m yours already, what else can’t I give you?"
Chu Wu smiled softly: "A man’s scarf; a boyfriend’s scarf must be especially warm."
"Okay, which brand? I’ll have someone order it."
"How could an ordinary brand be worthy of you? I want a custom piece from a luxury brand’s headquarters. You’ll look really handsome in it." Chu Wu said.
The other side suddenly fell silent.
Chu Wu asked: "What’s wrong?"
The man’s voice lowered: "How do you know about this?"
"I... I heard it from someone else." Chu Wu cautiously explained.
"Little Wu, I remember you weren’t a vain woman. This kind of service is beyond either you or me. Some things can be bought with money, but some depend on the family’s influence. Otherwise, how could those luxury headquarters possibly send someone for custom orders?"
The man felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Chu Wu quickly said: "Baby, I’m sorry, I didn’t understand all this. I was just thinking any scarf would look good on you. I didn’t realize there was so much to it. I don’t want it anymore. Even if you buy any random one, I’ll wear it all the time."
"Good girl, I’ll come pick you up tonight to go shopping."
Chu Wu held up the scarf: "This was pulled off Chu Yin’s neck. Even rich people can’t buy it; it’s only for certain family members."
