My Wife is My Life!

Meng Xun threw a stack of files in front of Shen Weiwei’s desk. Her forehead was covered in sweat and her styled hair was slightly messy.

“Weiwei, what the hell is going on? Did you ask Gu Shaoyu about what I asked you to ask? What the hell did he say? Why did the resources that he promised you before no longer count?”

Meng Xun pointed her finger to the pile of documents. ”Look, these are all the returned endorsements and film projects.“

She cursed in a low voice, “When we talked about the contract before, they all laughed and treated us warmly. Now, they’re acting all arrogant and won’t even pick up their phones!”

“You’ve been in a downtime for three months. If we don’t have any other resources, our studio will have to go down with you!”

Shen Weiwei casually flipped through the stack of files with a frown on her face. The wrinkles between her eyebrows had not had an opportunity to stretch out for the past few days.

What Meng Xun said was true. They had no resources during the past three months. Some time ago, Ji Qingqing got married on the hot search and she rubbed off some fame through her. Even though she mostly got scolded by the netizens, it was much better than having no one care about her at all.

But as time passed, the hype diminished and her situation became increasingly difficult. If she didn’t have any resources to follow up, she would soon become unknown in the entertainment industry.

As long as she could be famous, why would anything else matter?

“I understand, I’ll ask him again.”

“Weiwei, I recently heard some rumors that the Gu family is on the verge of bankruptcy. Our studio is funded by them. If they go bankrupt, our studio will also be forced to close. I think that Gu Shaoyu doesn’t have enough ability to turn the tide. I hope you can think more clearly about this matter.”

Shen Weiwei sighed, raised her head, and smiled reassuringly. “Don’t worry about it, I know what to do.”

She made a phone call to Gu Shaoyu and it rang for a long time. Just when Shen Weiwei thought Gu Shaoyu would not answer, he picked it up.

“Hey, Weiwei, what’s up?”

“Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you have time to have dinner with me tonight.”

Gu Shaoyu sighed in regret and apologized. “Sorry, I’ve been very busy lately and haven’t spent much time with you. Can we reschedule it for two days later? I’ll definitely be with you then.”

Shen Weiwei replied thoughtfully, “It’s okay, you can do your own thing first, then we’ll talk about it when you’re not so busy.”

“Okay, then I’ll hang up first.”

Shen Weiwei laughed out loud and hung up the phone.

However, the moment the call ended, her smile suddenly fell from her lips. Her face was filled with indescribable melancholy right at this moment.

“What did he say?” Meng Xun urged from the side.

“He said that he’s been busy lately and didn’t have time to meet up.”

“Weiwei, you have to find a way out in advance. If you still want to continue in the entertainment industry, we can’t be stuck with them!”

Meng Xun analyzed the pros and cons for her. “Their business’ vitality is greatly injured. Even if they haven’t gone bankrupt, their strength won’t be as strong as before. Our studio is under their ownership and we’re still relatively new. Do you think they’d still continue on supporting our studio, one that doesn’t reap that much profit?

“We’ll be abandoned! After braving the storm, they’ll avoid great expenditures to preserve strength and minimize their investment mistakes!

“Weiwei, think about it clearly. Gu Shaoyu, is he worth it?”

Shen Weiwei was in a dilemma. She stayed mum for a while, staring at the documents in front of her.

It was undeniable that Gu Shaoyu loved her. She could even bet that Gu Shaoyu loved her more than Lu Liting. As Lu Liting said, Gu Shaoyu would certainly cherish her for the rest of her life.

But… only if she was willing to get through the difficulties with Gu Shaoyu.

But then what?

Without the Gu family’s backing, Gu Shaoyu was nothing but a dandy young master who was incapable of doing anything else besides wasting time and drinking. How would he be able to support her in the future?

There were so many people who liked her. Without his family’s support, Gu Shaoyu was nothing more than an ordinary suitor. Why should she lower herself down to him?

She had spent her whole life climbing toward the peak of the entertainment industry and she couldn’t turn back halfway.

Who would be willing?!

Shen Weiwei made her decision right away.

“Don’t worry about it, I know what to do.”

Seeing Shen Weiwei’s firm expression, Meng Xun’s face looked a little better. “It’s best if you can figure it out. Once you and Gu Shaoyu make things clear, we’ll have to find a way out…”

***

It was already ten o’clock in the evening when Gu Shaoyu left the company.

Gu Shaoyu propped up his tired body inside the car and asked the driver to take him to the hospital.

His health was getting worse and worse. Recently, he either stayed in the company or at the hospital and hardly went home. When it would take too long to return to the residence, he just directly slept in the hospital to catch up with the meetings the next day. The same case could be said right now.

“Don’t worry, young master. Today, the doctor said that Lao Gu’s health has seen some improvement.”

Gu Shaoyu loosened his tie, looked at his haggard face reflected in the car window, and whispered, “Mn.”

The doctor had talked to him about his grandpa’s situation. He already knew what to expect and was prepared.
