Chapter 50: The Ex-Girlfriend of a Wealthy Young Man (50)

“I’ve been very busy, so I forgot to send it to Mr. Leng.”

You Yu forced a smile. In truth, she was feeling a little dissatisfied with Leng Rui, and so she intentionally didn’t send it to him.

Leng Rui tightened his grip on the music player in his hand and frowned. He certainly hadn’t been sleeping well since Tang Guo left.

He also tried looking for other women to come over and sing, but after they sang just one line, he found it somewhat unbearable and sent them away. Eventually, he had no other choice but to get someone to download Tang Guo’s song from the Internet. It was only after listening to her songs that he could finally fall asleep.

“What is this?”

“This is the song that Guo recorded for Mr. Leng. When she passed it on to me, she said that if she wasn’t here, Mr. Leng might not be able to sleep well at night, so she asked me to send it over to you.” You Yu flashed an awkward smile and said, “Then, I was really too busy after that, so I accidentally forgot all about it.”

Leng Rui casually tossed the music player aside, which made You Yu secretly upset, but she didn’t dare say anything.

Her Guo was such a kind soul. Even after Leng Rui had driven her out of his villa for the second time, she’d still thought of recording songs for him, cold and heartless as he was. Seeing how indifferent he was, it was really like he was throwing Guo’s sincere heart out to feed the dogs.

If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have brought the music player over today.

“What has she been up to lately?” After a long time, Leng Rui finally asked this question.

“Busy writing songs. She’s going to release a new album, and she also has plans to hold a concert at the end of the year,” said You Yu, a smile appearing at the corners of her mouth. She went on to say, “Guo is a very hardworking person. She even has plans to participate in a foreign music program next year. She was already very thin to start with, and now, because she’s busy with all these things, she’s even thinner than before.”

“Although she has Director Chen helping her and generally isn’t at any disadvantage, there are still quite a number of people who secretly set obstacles in her way,” said You Yu. Her face was filled with worry as she said, “Just take yesterday, for instance. If it wasn’t for Guo’s sharp wits, she wouldn’t have felt that there was something wrong with the drinks, and she might have lost her voice due to poisoning.”

Hearing this news, Leng Rui couldn’t help but tightly clench the armrests of the chair he was sitting on.

“Before the last meet-the-fans session, someone ruined Guo’s skirt. If we hadn’t discovered it early, she would have embarrassed herself in public.”

“When she was discussing her songs with the music producer, there were even people who deliberately snapped shots of them from a certain perspective to make it seem like they were in an intimate relationship. This almost created another wave of scandal like the previous one with Director Chen.”

You Yu shook her head and said, “Fortunately, there was a video recording of the surveillance camera that cleared everything up. Otherwise, we couldn’t possibly ask for that music producer to admit in public that he was dating Guo, right? Then people out there would be saying things like Guo is a lascivious, wanton woman.”

You Yu still shuddered at the thought of it and said, “Director Chen was quite wrongfully aggrieved by it, since he was dragged into such a troubling situation without rhyme or reason. In fact, we’re quite grateful to him. If it wasn’t for him agreeing to pretend to date Guo for half a year, before the release of the first record, she might have encountered many hardships.”

The more You Yu spoke, the more she sensed that something was wrong with Leng Rui.

“Mr. Leng, is there anything else?”

“No, nothing more.”

A short while after You Yu left, Leng Rui picked up the music player and turned it on.

Instantly, a soothing voice sounded. It was that woman’s voice.

Hearing the voice of this woman made him feel calm at heart. And also, ever since he’d met this woman, he hadn’t been able to find another voice that was better than hers.

“Go look up all the things that Tang Guo has been involved in over the past six months. I want to see a report in an hour’s time.”

“Yes, Mr. Leng.”

On this day, Chen Yuesheng received a phone call from Leng Rui.

“What made you think of calling me?” Chen Yuesheng was very surprised and asked, “Have you discovered another talent? One who’s better than Guo’er?”

Hearing him address her in such an affectionate way, Leng Rui couldn’t help but scowl, a murderous look flashing across his eyes.

“Half a year.”

The moment Leng Rui gave this casual, indifferent reply, Chen Yuesheng instantly understood what he meant by it.
