Group Pet Eldest Lady, She Just Wants To Be A Salted Fish

Chapter 46 Part 1 一 The one who lost face is Ruan Chenchen. It has nothing to do with Gu Fuchen!

At 8:00 a.m., topics related to Ruan Yōu and Ruan Chenchen, such as: #RuanChenchenTheOnlyBrother,” “#RuanYouRuanChenchenImmortalSiblings,” “#RuanFamilyIdentity,” and many others, rapidly trended in hot searches.

The most exciting part was the fans of Ruan Yōu’s super-topic acting like Sherlock Holmes.

Two days ago, after the announcement by The Only Brother that he would no longer participate in the first sign-in competition, he showcased his sister in the super topic, revealing an ultimate sister-con persona of “my sister says east, and I dare not go west” to all the fans in the super topic.

Everyone felt quite puzzled at that time.

Previously, the reason he didn’t allow others to call him “brother” was because he claimed to have only one sister. At that time, everyone could understand it as him not liking to be called “brother” by so many strangers. Now, his sister makes him give up chasing stars and first sign-in competition without any hesitation, decisively causing everyone to doubt.

On one hand, he treats the celebrity Ruan Yōu very well, preparing so many stunning and shocking entertainment-related merchandise for her. As the number one male fan, he participates in the first sign-in competition every day without fail, being even more active than clocking in for work. On the other hand, whatever his sister says goes.

This inevitably makes the Sherlock Holmes in the super topic start pondering a question:

Can a brother who is truly obsessed with his sister be this good to anyone other than his own sister?

And The Only Brother has wealth and status. He casually gives away high-end, luxurious merchandise worth millions. If his family had no money, how could he dare to do such a thing?

Someone mentioned last time that although they temporarily don’t know about Ruan Chenchen and Ruan Yōu’s family background, the watch worn by Ruan Chenchen has already exposed their extraordinary status.

To summarize in one sentence: Ruan Chenchen matches all the attributes of The Only Brother!

But until tonight, these were all speculations by the fans in the super topic. No one could confirm that Ruan Chenchen was indeed The Only Brother until Ruan Yōu’s Weibo post came out, causing a sensation across the entire internet.

【@Ruan Yōu: My brother is the best in the world @The Only Brother】

【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, The Only Brother say that his sister didn’t let him stay up late or participate in the first sign-in competition, so it was a command from the celebrity?】

【Hahaha, when The Only Brother mentioned the reason for not being able to participate in the first sign-in competition, some girls suggested that he bring his sister along to stay up late and participate happily together in the competition.】

【As one of the 1,000 winners in the last luxurious merchandise event, I want to ask: Can I round up the exquisite merchandise and consider them as gifts from Ruan Yōu to me? (proudly raises chest)】

【Ruan Chenchen, you are so generous!!】

【Chenchen, come out quickly. Your sister personally revealed your secret identity. Do you feel angry? Are you embarrassed to the point that your toes curl up in a whole floor of embarrassment? (bushi)】

【Overlord Chenchen doesn’t need face, hahaha】

【Hahaha, that’s so mean. Some girl made a compilation of the comments and posts that Ruan ChenChen made in the fan club. Every sentence is related to Ruan Yōu. Ruan Chenchen, you turned out to be a sister-con in your mind!!】

. . . . .

This comment quickly attracted attention from all over the internet. Everyone liked it and then rushed to Ruan Yōu’s fan club.

The compilation made by user @Xiaoyue is a grid of photos on Weibo, with screenshots of the conversations and Q&A between The Only Brother and the fan club, as well as his posts in the fan club.

The first long picture 一 The cultivation of Ruan Yōu’s number one true male fan in the fan club.

【The Only Brother: So this is the Super Topic?】

【The Only Brother: Where do I check in?】

This is The Only Brother during a period of ignorance and innocence, gradually transitioning to一

When there were anti-fans provoking and questioning Ruan Yōu’s abilities,

【The Only Brother: Young actress Ruan Yōu [flower][flower][flower] has a film rating of 8.9 for the work “The Vanished Her,” the highest-rated art film of the year, nominated at international art festivals before leaving the industry. Her previous work, “The One I Like The Most,” generated more discussion than the lead role… She’s the most anticipated actress of 2023 and ranks first in Delta Data’s monthly rankings.】

Xiaoyue’s sharp comment:【Brother Overlord has learned a lot; he step on and praise at the same time. And when mentioning one’s achievements, never mention the main character!】

The themes of the following pictures are: The Only Brother‘s Money-Throwing Diary, The Only Brother‘s Bragging Diary, etc.

The last long picture 一 Self-cultivation of a sister-con.

【@Little Rabbit: Haha, I want to ask The Only Brother a tricky question. Besides Ruan Yōu, who do you think is the most beautiful female celebrity? (I want to see the difference in aesthetic between boys and girls.)】

The Only Brother replied: 【My sister is the most beautiful.】

Everyone: !!!

At that time, they couldn’t grasp the significance of that answer, but now, knowing the truth, they look at it again…

Wow, from beginning to end, everything he said was about Ruan Yōu!!

Half an hour later, this Weibo post spread across the entire internet. It was uploaded on Little Green Book, Douban, and various short video apps.

There were many onlookers, and Ruan Yōu’s fan base skyrocketed by a hundred thousand that night.

The spectators enjoyed the show, and even the wealthy circles were also gossiping.

At half-past ten in the evening, Gu Fuchen, puzzled, was still working in his study when Ruan Yōu returned to her bedroom on the seventh floor. Her WeChat buzzed.

She clicked to see.

【Lu Xuan invites you to join the group chat 一 “How Boring We Are (21)”】

“Hey, come on in the group, quickly!” Lu Xuan sat on the sofa, excitedly waving at her.

“What kind of group is this?” Ruan Yōu asked as she clicked to enter.

As soon as she asked the question, she entered.

The people in the group were clearly very excited.

【Here she comes, here she comes!】

【The main character has finally arrived, and the melon in delicious1!】

【I never expected Gu Fuchen to be like this. I showed my parents the screenshots made by the blogger, and no one believed it.】

【When my mom saw it, she asked me seriously, “So your brother Fuchen also has a nickname called Ruan Chenchen?” Me: …】

Lu Xuan couldn’t hide her excitement on her face, “This is a small group in the industry. Two hours after you posted on Weibo, the discussion in the circle skyrocketed. Everyone wants me to invite you to share your experience.”

Ruan Yōu: …

【Oh no, my image of Brother Fuchen is completely shattered. He used to be low-key and steady, rarely smiling or talking. But now, he’s like an adorable fool.】

【I have to admit, I quite like this new version. The previous cold and domineering overlord was too cold and dominating. Now, the cute version of Chenchen is just right (just my opinion).】

【Both of you sisters are adorable. Take a look at me.】

【Roll2.】

【Roll.】

【Ruan Yōu must be the most ‘desperate’ person now. You thought you were going to have an overlord brother, but instead, you got a fool (bushi).】

【If this reaches Gu Fuchen’s ears, I guarantee you’ll be on the blacklist of Bozhan tomorrow, along with your family】

【Haha, I used to think that Gu Fuchen would never seek revenge publicly, but now I’m scared. Brother Fuchen, I apologize on my knees. I’m sorry for disrespecting you and calling you a fool.】

. . . . .

Ruan Yōu lifted her head and glanced at the group chat —”How Boring We Are.”

A group of wealthy and noble offspring, along with socialites, spending money everywhere, it is indeed quite boring in this gossip.

【Jiang Huai: Took a screenshot, will show him tomorrow.】

【Boss Jiang, please don’t be like this wuwuwu】

【Jiang Huai: Don’t act cute, being cute is useless. Where is my Bodhisattva Sister? Didn’t she just join the group?】

【Fat Cat: ?】

【Jiang Huai: Has Ruan Chenchen seen the news online? Did he feel embarrassed and cry under the covers? (Rubbing hands excitedly.jpg3)】

【Fat Cat: ? Not likely. My brother is still working diligently in his study.】

【Wow~ Truly the heir of Bozhan, so mysterious.】

【Wow~ Truly a business legend, so mysterious.】

【Wow~ Just thinking about being pushed to a corner by the fool Ruan Chenchen during the business war makes me want to cry even more.】

Ruan Yōu felt overwhelmed with a splitting headache.

Indeed, it is her fault.

She feels that her brother Ruan Chenchen needs her encouragement, so she praised him on Weibo in front of everyone. He must be very happy.

As for why she mentioned The Only Brother, it’s because The Only Brother has done a lot for her in the super topic before, and Ruan Yōu doesn’t want her brother’s merits to be ignored by others.

Everything The Only Brother has done in the super topic deserves praise.

She wants to openly praise her brother in front of everyone, letting everyone know how lovely Ruan Chenchen is in private. She also wants her brother to face this side of himself without any pretense.

Perhaps she has already become accustomed to the adorable Chenchen, and she doesn’t think that the fact that The Only Brother is Gu Fuchen is difficult for people to accept. Even on the day she discovered that Gu Fuchen is The Only Brother, she didn’t show a hint of surprise.

In facts…

She underestimated it.

Even the various young ladies and noble sons in the wealthy circle showed tremendous excitement, which shows what netizens might think.

She thought that when Ruan Chenchen’s name became well-known, netizens would have a clear understanding of her brother.

Jiang Huai privately messaged her:【Does Ruan Chenchen know about this?】

【Fat Cat: … I don’t know if he knows or not. He’s very focused on his work.】

【Jiang Huai: Hahaha, send him a message so he’ll be prepared when he comes to the company tomorrow.】

Ruan Yōu immediately sent a message to Gu Fuchen and also forwarded him the wildly popular “The Only Brother Diary” Weibo post.

【Fat Cat: I praised you… but it seems like there’s a bit of a problem…】

Gu Fuchen had just finished his work.

As soon as the message arrived, the screen lit up, and Gu Fuchen quickly noticed the two words “Ruanruan.” He immediately set aside the report and opened his phone to read it.

He paused for two seconds.

Ruanruan had sent two Weibo messages to share.

Gu Fuchen clicked on the first one, which automatically redirected him to Weibo.

【@Ruan Yōu: My brother is the best in the world @The Only Brother】

Gu Fuchen: ! ! ! My sister praised him QAQ

He truly deserved the title of the best brother, much more capable than that useless person, Lu Jin.

This prosperous world, just as he wished!

After the excitement, Gu Fuchen quickly realized something.

His sister mentioned him?

Hmm?

Gu Fuchen’s smile stiffened slightly as he clicked on the second Weibo post shared by Ruan Yōu.

After seeing it clearly…

He was instantly dumbfounded.

【Song Wen: President Gu, my sister fanatic President Gu, can’t you be a bit low-key? You have the company-wide meeting on Friday! How do you want the employees to see you, Ruan Chenchen? The Only Brother? Or do you have any other aliases?】

【G: Don’t worry, there aren’t any.】

【Song Wen: …Everyone in the group is discussing you now. We are monitoring all the online entries and keywords. If there’s any news associating you with Miss Ruan Yōu, we will temporarily handle it discreetly. Ruan Chenchen can be linked to The Only Brother, but Gu Fuchen absolutely can’t be!!】

【Song Wen: President Gu, President Gu, you know, right? /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~】

【Song Wen: For the sake of Bozhan’s honor and the company’s dignity, can you try harder?】

【G: …I can.】

【Song Wen: That’s good. Don’t worry, the image of Fat Cat and Gu Fuchen is very positive now. It’s best if you discuss with Miss Ruan and not take off this vest. I beg you!】

Song Wen has almost exhausted himself for the sake of the company. In the past, he was busy with work, but now he is busy protecting his sister fanatic’s disguise and his aliases, which is also not easy.

After reading the two Weibo posts shared by his sister, Gu Fuchen still felt a bit embarrassed.

While enjoying the freedom of being The Only Brother on the internet, Gu Fuchen felt happy. He felt happy when his sister praised him publicly online. However, once The Only Brother status was linked to Bozhan, not to mention Song Wen, he felt embarrassed to the point of hiding his face in silence.

Fortunately, it’s Ruan Chenchen’s reputation that has been damaged.

What does it have to do with Gu Fuchen!

Gu Fuchen stood tall, raised his head, displayed his usual noble demeanor, and adjusted his cuff while getting up. He exuded a naturally commanding presence.

He closed Weibo and returned to his bedroom.

After freshening up, Gu Fuchen habitually picked up his phone and responded to work-related matters. Most people in the business circle now know that Ruan Chenchen and The Only Brother are the same person. They still maintain good professional conduct when talking to him, showing respectful and polite attitudes. They don’t make reckless jokes about his ultimate sister-con character.

People in the business circle are astute.

Life is life, work is work.

Gu Fuchen finished reading and replied to a few urgent messages. As he was about to go to sleep, another WeChat message popped up on his phone.

From Fat Cat.

【The Only Brother is Gu Fuchen, Ruan Chenchen is Gu Fuchen, the business legend mentioned in the news reports is also Gu Fuchen, this is the truest appearance of Gu Fuchen, without the need for embarrassment or pretending.】

Gu Fuchen stood still for a long time.

Ever since he started getting involved with Bozhan, his father, Gu Youqian, repeatedly told him that he was too impulsive in his personality. When facing major shareholders and management, he couldn’t control himself, and others would see him as a child who should not be listened to at all.

He had to learn to be steady like an excellent heir, to show maturity, and to let go of his childish side. Gu Fuchen listened and did it very well.

After pretending for so many years, sometimes he unconsciously thought that revealing his true self would make him lose face. But in front of his younger sister, he just wanted to be jealous, just wanted her to pay more attention to him, and only praise him.

Unexpectedly, his sister really only praised him!

Gu Fuchen chuckled and replied “OK.”

The next morning, the matter of being “The Only Brother” and “Ruan Chenchen” reached Ruan Liuyu’s ears.

Ruan Liuyu was arranging for a designer to prepare the evening gown for Ruan Yōu for the end-of-month banquet.

It was only then that Ruan Yōu found out…

“I’m going to have a banquet at the end of the month?”

She stood in the middle like a porcelain doll, with a row of over a dozen high-end dresses worth two to three million yuan in front of her. The stylist, makeup artist, and designer were busy around her.

Ruan Liuyu: “Your dad has been planning this for a long time. When you return home, there will naturally be a welcome banquet. Don’t worry about this matter; your dad and mom have made all the arrangements.”

Ruan Yōu could already imagine the luxury of this banquet.

Let’s get it done. Who wouldn’t want to be a noble queen~

“These dresses are too plain. The crown as well. Who still uses diamonds as the centerpiece? A full diamond crown looks too plain and broken. It’s not beautiful; this design won’t do,” Ruan Liuyu frowned and said to the designer beside her.

Ruan Yōu exchanged a glance with Lu Xuan outside the crowd, wordlessly.

— Mom is still mom, even dismissing a crown adorned with two hundred diamonds.

For this banquet, Ruan Liuyu planned to hold it on the southernmost island owned by the Gu family. The entire island was being arranged, and it would be a grand occasion, destined to be recorded in the history of the aristocracy.

Money flowed like water, and Gu Youqian and Ruan Liuyu didn’t care at all.

After finalizing the crown and jewelry, the designer took Ruan Yōu’s measurements and tried on a sample dress. Ruan Liuyu gave a few suggestions for improvement.

“The V-neck is too revealing and not proper enough. The dress style is too simple. Has your designer been too busy recently, so they just hurriedly brought over a few previous dresses to get by?” Ruan Liuyu’s tone was not good.

The designer’s assistant kept their head down and dared not speak.

Mrs. Ruan had a sharp eye. The designs of these dresses were all from several years ago. The Gu family needed the dresses urgently, and her boss had no choice but to modify the old designs slightly and send them over.

Classic designs withstand scrutiny; they were not as unbearable as Ruan Liuyu described. However, she now demanded perfection in everything and would never allow her daughter to wear dresses that were “modified” from a few years ago.

“Now, ask Leo to set aside all plans and postpone the spring fashion show. If there are any issues at headquarters, they should come to me. Right now, the focus of all work is on my daughter’s end-of-month welcome banquet dress. If the tailoring workshop is short-staffed, let me transfer some seamstresses from the clothing workshop in China to ensure that my daughter can wear the most stunning dress.”

“Yes, yes, I will communicate that immediately.”

Now, the world is vast, but Ruan Yōu’s dress is the greatest. She doesn’t even care about next year’s spring fashion week. Ruan Liuyu now demands that the haute couture studio of the fashion group be responsible, with everyone revolving around Ruan Yōu’s dress.

The demands are outrageous, audacious, and arrogant, but no one dares to say a word of refusal.

The Gu family has that authority.

Ruan Yōu’s banquet has even more authority.
