The family of three returned home after 11 p.m.

Lu Weidong was away on a business trip and not at home. Upon learning that his mother was injured, his eldest and second eldest sons rushed back overnight with their wives. They were originally going to pick her up from the hospital, but upon learning that the mother was already on her way home, they could only wait at home.

The three were surrounded as soon as they entered the door.

Seeing their concern for her, Mrs. Lu smiled with relief: "Don't worry, it's just a small problem. Just be careful in the future and don't let it become a habitual dislocation. Hurry up and go home. The children have to go to school tomorrow morning, and we can't leave them all to the nanny."

The children were already asleep at this time, and thinking that the situation wasn't particularly urgent, they didn't bring the children along.

After carefully reviewing the medical records and seeing that it wasn't a serious problem, the eldest and second eldest brothers comforted their younger brother and sister-in-law, telling them not to feel guilty. Then, each of them left with their wives.

"Mom, you need to apply ice for the next 48 hours. I'll go get the ice and apply it again!"

Although the joint has been reset, the muscles and ligaments were strained before, and Lu Tai's cheeks are burning and swollen right now, so she definitely needs to apply ice.

She agreed and obediently sat on the sofa to wait.

Gu Lanxi took the ice, wrapped it up, and patiently applied it to her face before taking her back to her room.

Fearing that she might feel unwell in the middle of the night and have no one to serve her, Gu Lanxi originally wanted to stay and sleep with her, but Lu Tai's words dispelled her idea.

“We’re not used to sleeping together. What if we get startled in the middle of the night and scream with our mouths open? That would be terrible. It’s really nothing serious. You two go back to your room and sleep. I’ll call someone if I need anything.”

Seeing her resolute attitude, the young couple had no choice but to go back inside.

While Lu Nanting was taking a shower, Gu Lanxi thought for a moment and called Mei Xue, asking her to contact the paparazzi.

"If we're ever filmed again, I'll buy all the footage of us."

Gu Lanxi sighed deeply.

She has always maintained that money should not be spent on things that shouldn't be spent.

But today, none of her family blamed her; instead, they kept comforting her, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

She had been ridiculed and made headlines before, but Gu Lanxi, being all alone, didn't care about such things.

Because she always keeps her distance from others, even if her relatives and friends see her, they don't dare to laugh at her to her face.

But now, I have close family.

Her two sisters-in-law smiled broadly, giving her a thumbs-up with playful expressions. Her two brothers-in-law clearly wanted to laugh too, but out of consideration for her feelings, they said nothing...

Gu Lanxi rolled around on the bed three times before finally making up her mind to splurge and spend this money that had been wasted.

Mei Xue was asleep when she heard this. She thought she had misheard and paused for a moment before realizing what she had said.

As a professional and responsible agent, she naturally had to offer some advice:
"Buying all the non-negative news would be an unnecessary expense, which is unwise. Besides, when we're not actively promoting something, we still rely on them to leak information to build a fanbase..."

Mei Xue tried to persuade her for a long time, but to no avail, and she couldn't understand it at all.

My mind was flooded with all sorts of thoughts.

After forcing myself to calm down, I asked her:

"What happened? Why did you suddenly make this decision?"

Although it was embarrassing, Gu Lanxi still said it:

"My mother-in-law saw our video call and laughed so hard her jaw dislocated. She just got back from the hospital, and the doctor said she can't laugh too loudly..."

Mei Xue was completely confused: "What video?"

"Wasn't tonight a class reunion? Ting and I came out of the karaoke bar and were waiting for a car on the side of the road when we started fooling around for a while..."

Mei Xue didn't say anything, but quickly got up and went online to look up the video.

After reading it, I took a deep breath and remained speechless for a long time.

Because the comments were all laughing and there was no negative influence, the person in charge of public opinion monitoring at the studio did not notify her. She had a bit of a cold these past two days and had been going to bed early, so this was the first time she had seen this.

After taking several deep breaths, Mei Xue finally calmed herself down. She then said, "You two, I've lost count of how many times this has happened. Why don't you just form a duo and become comedians? Seriously, then I won't have to worry anymore."

Comedians, being a bit abstract in real life, are forgivable.

They're such a perfect couple, I really hope they don't get together...

"People are multifaceted. We are real people, not two-dimensional characters. This is good. It's down-to-earth and vibrant."

"If this kind of thing happens too often, it will arouse fans' desire to explore your private lives, there will be more obsessive fans, and more paparazzi will be watching you. It is wise to reduce unnecessary exposure and let fans focus on your work, your event performances, and your endorsement deals."

They're no longer in the early stages of their careers where they desperately need to gain followers; they should distance themselves from their fans so they can live more comfortably.

Gu Lanxi sighed: "Unless we become outdated one day, or get too old and a fresher star emerges, these things are inevitable. A little more or less makes no difference."

Given their current situation, as long as their careers don't collapse, it's unknown how many years it will take for them to fade into obscurity.

After all, they are only 22 years old.

Many artists this age haven't even officially debuted yet!
So you have to be open-minded.

Seeing that she wouldn't accept her suggestion, Mei Xue didn't force her and simply changed the subject back:

"There are so many funny things online. Even if your mother-in-law doesn't laugh at you two, she'll laugh at others. What you're doing is really unnecessary! It's a complete waste of money."

Gu Lanxi buried her head in the pillow, pounded the bed a few times, then sat up and sighed softly.

"I was so angry that I lost my mind."

"What's there to be angry about? It's not like some shocking news that could cause a major upheaval."

"My family is laughing so hard at me!"

She didn't have anyone to confide in. Mei Xue was older than her, gentle and considerate, and the two got along well. Sometimes, Gu Lanxi was willing to show some of her true emotions in front of her.

"Try to think positively. Kids these days like to play with abstract art, and fans are very receptive to it."

Over the years, the entertainment industry has developed in different ways, and people have different priorities in each era.

At first, it might have just been about being handsome. Later, idols were required to be virtuous and talented. Then, people hoped that idols would have interesting personalities and dare to show their true selves. Now, they also have to keep up with the trends, create popular internet memes, or follow the latest trends.

"I'll be fine if I take it easy."

Gu Lanxi talked to her about the script again, and then hung up the phone.

It was quite late tonight, so Gu Lanxi quickly washed up and went to sleep peacefully.

When I woke up early in the morning, I saw Mrs. Lu throwing a tantrum in the restaurant, slamming her fist on the table.

"What's going on here?"

Lu Nanting quickly ran over to ask.

"Contact a lawyer, quickly, and sue these people who are spreading rumors! I'm so angry!"

Seeing Gu Lanxi follow him over, Mrs. Lu quickly pointed to her phone and showed it to her:
"Look at these people, how outrageous! They said we were fighting at home, and you ended up sending me to the hospital!"

Gu Lanxi looked completely bewildered: "Huh??"

Was this manuscript written with feet?
"Right now, a bunch of people are stirring up trouble, saying you're fierce, that you hit people without blinking an eye, and so on. Sigh, you're not good enough yourself, but others are strong and therefore commit crimes. Typical loser logic! Don't worry about it, I'll handle it."

Mrs. Lu's face was sore all night, and the swelling hadn't completely gone down yet. She was already irritable when she woke up this morning, and seeing these rumors made her even angrier!

The lawyers were contacted to file a lawsuit against the criminals, and before breakfast was even finished, the evidence collection was already complete.

Only then did Mrs. Lu log into her Weibo account and post a message:
[I'm speechless. People believe any rumor. I'm just laughing my head off. My daughter is so nice, how could she possibly hit me? Please use your brain when you go online! Also, I've finished gathering evidence, and my lawyer is already waiting outside the courthouse. They'll file the case as soon as opening time begins! I advise those who do bad things not to take chances!]

Netizens' attention was entirely focused on the fact that it was "hilarious"!
What did you see? Why are you laughing so hard?
Thinking about what happened last night, the fans are dying of laughter!
Who knew that this street performance by the couple would have such a sequel?! (End of Chapter)
