The sweetest in the entertainment industry

“There’s nothing difficult about it. We’ll get the items back, and I’ll transfer the money the fans spent to us. Once we get the person who sold the items in jail, we’ll take the money from the compensation.”

Taking advantage of the clear weather, the osmanthus flowers in the community were in full bloom. Gu Lanxi stood on the balcony, and a breeze carried the sweet fragrance in. It should have been a beautiful day, but she couldn't help but frown.

Although most of those things were unusable after she brought them back, she didn't want them to be left out in the open, or even repeatedly discussed online.

If what she wears or carries in public is exposed and people buy the same items online, that's okay, it's her job.

The thought of secretly taking her clothes, shoes, and personal belongings, even those of her children, and posting them online, turning them into gossip fodder for strangers, makes her furious!

"The trending topic has been removed, and the popularity has been suppressed, but the fans are very emotional and keep arguing."

Although the incident stemmed from Lu Nanting's lack of caution, if fans hadn't dug deep and spread the news, far fewer people would have gotten involved.

There is already a lot of controversy among fans about this kind of gray area of ​​stalking behavior. This time, such a big incident has occurred. It can be said that apart from the time when the couple was chased by stalkers and caused a car accident, this is the second most serious stalking incident they have faced since their debut. It was inevitable that there would be internal arguments.

Especially Xiao Yuanbao, who was already angry and heartbroken to see Gu Lanxi injured, especially in such a sensitive area as her neck, then suddenly saw the bloodstained couple's necklace being listed on a second-hand website. The seller, in order to prove that the necklace was genuine, used a high-definition camera to capture every detail clearly.

They wore this necklace shortly after their marriage and never took it off unless absolutely necessary.

In the past, fans of all three groups were curious about what Gu Lanxi's necklace looked like. After all, only Lu Nanting showed it off repeatedly, while Gu Lanxi was only seen wearing it but never revealing it. For so many years, everyone could only see a chain and not the pendant.

Now that we've seen it, even Lu Nanting's die-hard fans aren't happy at all.

With fans all over the world, and given that there's no French way to fight each other, and considering it's a society governed by law, it's not really appropriate to do anything serious. So when they start arguing online, they naturally go all out.

There were even fans from overseas coming to protest, with voices in various languages ​​across different platforms. Sometimes, fans would have to use translation software to finish their arguments.

The fans were certainly being genuine, but the incident escalated, and bystanders inevitably developed a negative impression of the two of them.

Furthermore, if foreign media seize upon this as an opportunity to make a fuss, it could potentially have even worse consequences.

Considering the artists' future development, they have to find a way to quell this turmoil.

But given the current situation, it feels inappropriate to do anything.

Blame the fans who chase after private matters? They must be feeling terrible.

Advising those fans who uphold order and vehemently criticize their fellow fans is even more inappropriate.

This caused Sister Mei a lot of headaches.

In the past, if the boss encountered such a situation, she would be responsible for resolving it. However, since coming to Gu Lanxi's place, she has become accustomed to discussing everything with the boss and respecting his opinions in all aspects.

Not knowing what to do to please the boss, I naturally had to ask.

Gu Lanxi took a deep breath and exhaled softly, quite decisively: "Never mind, we've argued quite a bit anyway."

That's just the nature of the Chinese entertainment industry; every group has its own endless arguments. If the celebrities involved always have to resolve these issues, things will get out of control.

Perhaps sensing that her words were a bit emotional, she added, "Even if they hadn't gone that day, those stalkers would still have blocked me. If it weren't for them, Tuantuan and I might have been in even worse shape. When I visit them in the hospital later, I will make my stance clear, and everyone will know that we have never blamed them for this."

Speaking directly to fans in person is more effective than making statements online.

It wasn't that she and Lu Nanting were too embarrassed to admit it.

Before Sister Mei could say anything more, Gu Lanxi interrupted her, "Alright, that's settled then. Come pick me up early tomorrow. We'll go to the hospital to visit the injured fan first, then go to the film crew for the script reading. I'll talk to Brother Yuan about Brother Ting later and ask him to get back to work as soon as possible."

Their schedules were set well in advance, and the sudden change meant many people would have to work for nothing. It was understandable that Lu Nanting couldn't be there when she and Tuantuan suddenly ran into trouble; the matter had already been resolved, and it wasn't necessary for him to personally oversee the cleanup.

After Sister Mei agreed, Gu Lanxi hung up the phone and then called Lu Nanting.

Lu Nanting was still in the hospital at the moment. Thinking that he was concerned about the fans' situation, she told her the general arrangements.

“We have already hired a caregiver and arranged the best doctors and wards. I have thanked everyone and told them that we plan to handle this discreetly, and they all understand.”

Gu Lanxi then told him what she had just thought of.

When husband and wife are united, they can discuss things together, advance and retreat as one, which can avoid a lot of trouble.

Lu Nanting agreed to everything, then asked about Tuantuan's situation. Knowing that her mother was here, she said she would be back in a little while and hung up the phone.

The two quickly resolved the matter, and the lawyer has already filed the case.

Such a large-scale masked blockade and robbery, involving far more than a million dollars, restricting the personal freedom of women and children, and injuring more than a dozen good-hearted citizens who tried to help, will be punished with multiple crimes and directly imprisoned. The legal team estimates that the ringleader will be guaranteed at least ten years, and ordinary participants will be able to get one to three years. Even if they just followed along, as long as they participated in the blockade, they will be detained for at least fifteen days and fined.

The facts of the crime are clear, the evidence is detailed, and the legal team is strong enough. All that's left is to go through the procedures; the two of them don't need to follow up personally.

For the next few days, the two disappeared without a trace, with no updates on any of the major platforms. Not only that, they also hid all the non-business-related content they had posted before.

From then on, the passionate interactions between the two in their youthful days, as well as the heartwarming memories of their purest love, will only exist in the screenshots taken by fans. It will be impossible to reminisce about the past on the official accounts of the two.

All three fan groups felt abandoned by their idols, and they basically endured this period while cursing and crying. However, they learned from the fans who were hospitalized that Lanting and his wife had never blamed them, no matter how devastated they were.

Even ordinary people would be extremely cautious in such a situation. It's like being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of a rope for ten years. They would no longer want to share their private lives online. It's just that they want to protect their families from harm. What's wrong with that?
Grandma and Grandma's daughter Tuantuan is only one year old!

Those damned bastards!
The fans argued for several days, each with their own version of events, and in the end, they didn't reach a conclusion. However, they inexplicably felt that their sense of unity had become stronger.

It's standard practice for celebrity teams to manipulate fans. You could say that if you're not in this industry, you'd be embarrassed to even step out of the gate without having a difficult past.

Even with Lu Nanting's background, fans still occasionally bring up the story of how he was brutally attacked back then and cry about it!

Not to mention someone like Gu Lanxi, who is truly a bitter gourd.

Any true fan, when talking about Gu Lanxi's past, will inevitably say, "Manman, the rain had already stopped when I was twelve years old."

The couple didn't do this to provoke their fans; they simply didn't have the desire to share.

For the next few months, aside from a few business activities, Lu Nanting will keep a low profile until his fourth tour after the New Year.

Fans were hoping that Gu Lanxi could update her status so that everyone wouldn't be so anxious, but the production team even changed the media interview session at the start of filming for her sake. The start of filming was extremely low-key. Apart from the official movie account releasing some promotional materials, everything on set was kept secret, so she naturally couldn't actively show herself.

Before and after filming began, some sasaeng fans spotted the couple taking turns appearing at the hospital. Knowing that their fellow fan who was injured that day was still receiving treatment, the fans were both moved and heartbroken. However, they learned a lesson from this incident, and all three fan groups are now undergoing the strictest anti-sasaeng education in history. Upon seeing such posts, they will not even click on them, but will directly report and complain.

It's rare to see such unity among the fans of the three groups. In less than ten days, countless unscrupulous marketing accounts have been wiped out.

Forget about making a fortune selling followers; he even lost the accounts he had nurtured. It was a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.

As time went by, the incident gradually lost its impact, fewer and fewer people paid attention to it, and those who were arrested were already facing criminal charges. Since there was no profit to be made and they were frightened, they eventually chose to back down.

The Lanting couple also enjoyed a long-awaited period of peace. (End of Chapter)
