ldier from when he was a new recruit to his gradual climb up the ranks until his departure from the Northwest. 。Because of their pursuit of perfection and realistic shooting style, it's very immersiv...Gu Ruandong worked in the company until late at night before asking his driver to take him to Baili Club.

The Baoli Club remained lavish and dazzling, while some people present seemed gloomy and out of place in such a vibrant setting.

He stepped into the room and everyone inside stood up to greet him. He nodded and sat down in his usual spot, a cigarette tucked between his fingers. He'd failed at quitting recently and was smoking rather heavily. For a moment, he was truly back to the time before he met YaoYao.

The people in the room were all those who had fought tooth and nail against the 森兵 Group for him these past few days. He sat among them, knowing deep down that he could no longer walk the path of righteousness.

However, after going through all of this, he no longer has any obsession with returning to the right path.

What is the right path

Like Wang Binghai or the Li family Putting on a cloak of righteousness while engaging in illegal activities

Or would it be like the Lu family Sticking to business as usual, only to become a casualty in political struggles.

Or, just like before, he could try to walk the righteous path but would be held back, not only dragging down his own family, but also unable to protect the woman he loved.

He thought, as long as he adhered to his principles and bottom line, it didn't matter what path he walked. He needn't confine himself unnecessarily.

Pau Sang sat beside the bar, his expression unreadable. Bao Sang couldn't tell what he was thinking. The excitement he had felt earlier was now replaced by unease.

Suddenly, Gu Ruandong glanced at her. Her heart skipped a beat and she looked back at him. There was no emotion in his eyes, yet he kept staring at her, as if weighing his words. Just as Baosang's heartbeat quickened and panic set in, he spoke: "The matter of Baoshang harming me is none of your concern. But I am a man who seeks revenge. I can't go after Baoshang myself, so I have to make you pay your father's debts."

Her words were light and airy, her expression even carried a hint of amusement, but Bao Sang shivered inexplicably. "What do you mean"

Dai Fang and Cheng Xinmin also looked at him: "Gu Shao"

He continued, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

He just handed over all of Bao Shu's criminal evidence to the police. Bao Shu is gone, but all his assets and finances will probably be confiscated, including the factory on the west side.

Bao Sang, who could have squandered a fortune for a lifetime, saw it all vanish in an instant.

Seeing Bao Sang's face turn pale, his smile faded: "Considering your cooperation this time, I'll have Xiao Cai transfer your living allowance to you every month."

Letting Bao Sang rely on charity to survive wouldn't cause much harm, but it would be extremely insulting. It would be worse than killing her. Just as Bao Sang was about to speak, his gaze suddenly became sharp again: "This is my last act of kindness towards you. If you dare to have any other ulterior motives, I won't hesitate to send you back to prison for a few more years. When you figure things out, you can come out then. You know me, I always keep my word."

After finishing his words, he turned to look at Da Fang and Cheng Xinmin and others, and continued: "And you all as well."

After he finished speaking, he got up and left the room without looking back.

He was warning them, watching Baosang, not to touch the people around him.

While he spoke of past affection, in reality his heart was colder and harder than before, with no trace of old feelings left.

After leaving Baili Club, the driver waited by the car with the door open. He didn't get in immediately, wanting to take a breath of fresh air. He leaned against the car and lit another cigarette, taking a drag before extinguishing it. Only then did he take out his phone to send a video to YaoYao. Seeing the name on the screen, his expression softened unconsciously.

Lu Yaoyao had just finished chatting with her grandfather and returned to her room. She took a shower and was about to go to sleep when she received a call from Gu Ruandong. It was dark in her room as she hadn't turned on the light.

He was in the parking lot outside the Baoli Club, the lighting flickered and wasn't bright enough, but it created a different kind of atmosphere.

He asked, “Xiao Cai said you went out to work”

He not only had people secretly protecting her, but also Dongyang Entertainment now has a deep cooperation with Tingjing Entertainment. Any good resources will be tilted towards their company, and they closely monitor her every move.

So he knew about what she had gone through while filming the commercial. He was both angry and heartbroken. When would his precious Yaoyao ever have to endure such mistreatment He immediately asked Xiao Cai for the brand's information, intending to make them unable to operate in the industry.

But Xiaocai said, "Ms. Lu told me that she would handle this herself and didn't want us to get involved."

So, Gu Ruandong endured and didn't handle the matter. He knew that she was in a sensitive period now and wanted to be independent. If he interfered, it might backfire.

She wanted to roll around in the storm, and he made himself her steady ship behind her, ready to bring her back to shore whenever she turned around.

Now when he asked her, she hummed softly in the dark. He held his phone close, close enough to hear her gentle breathing, a featherlight touch on his heart. He longed for her, for this tenderness, and unconsciously, he lit another cigarette.

I'm hitting this video because I wanted to tell her to try not to go out to work recently, but knowing her, she wouldn't listen. All I can do is try my best to protect her.

He had no way of knowing how the Li family and their allies would retaliate against him, but passive waiting was not his character. He had to swiftly resolve the matter with the Li family so he could properly help the Lu family and bring people back.

Lu YaoYao's heart was really big. Gu RuanDong was here racking his brain, thinking of ways to be good to her, and she just hummed in response before falling asleep over there.

Gu Ruandong helplessly hung up the video call, fearing that the sound might disturb her.

She's really tired. She got up very early this morning to go to the photography studio, but it didn't work out. In the afternoon, she had a meeting with the brand representatives and Hao Jie for three hours. In the evening, she accompanied her grandfather in rehabilitation training, so now she just goes to bed as soon as she gets home. She is also someone who doesn't get anxious easily, solves problems when they arise, so she sleeps soundly.

The meeting with the brand resulted in both her and Haojie insisting that the shoot could only be done by one person. If they absolutely had to bring the model, the price would need to be renegotiated.

The brand had to rush the launch of their product, so they couldn't delay the endorsement commercial any longer. However, this eighteen-line model was pushed into the project by the boss, so there was no other choice but to sign a new contract.

The next day, before dawn had broken, she got up and started preparing to go out. She had made an appointment with ShanShan to meet at the photography studio. Yesterday they had been delayed for a day, so today's shooting schedule was heavy. As she opened the courtyard gate, the outside world was still shrouded in mist. The alley was quiet. She saw the army green jeep parked at the gate. Song JingYe stood beside the car, his head bowed as if lost in thought. When he heard the noise, he looked up at her and smiled.

In the hazy morning, he and the car were both blurry. Lu Yaoyao almost thought it was her hallucination until he spoke, "You female stars are quite hardworking too."

Author's Note: I know the second part wasn't well-written, thank you for your tolerance, I'm working hard to find it.

And everyone a happy holiday! Gu Ruandong was too busy at the company to leave until late, only then did he let his driver take him to Baili Club.

The Baoli Club was still resplendent, glittering and colorful. Some people looked rather gloomy in contrast to this environment.

As soon as he entered the room, everyone inside stood up and greeted him. He nodded and sat down in his usual spot, a cigarette clutched between his fingers. He had been trying to quit smoking recently but had failed miserably. He was smoking pretty heavily. For a moment, he felt like he was back to when he wasn't with YaoYao.

The people in the room were all those who had fought tooth and nail against the Sen military group for him these past days. He sat among them, knowing deep down that he could never walk the so-called path of righteousness again. tone it down a bit.Lin Zhiyu stuck out her tongue and then silently took Shi Yan's hand.After getting home, Lin Zhihao had mentally prepared to be interrogated.
