"I bought it."
"Thirty thousand?"
"This wasteful girl."
Huang Yunxia felt relieved inside but couldn’t help reminding her, "Don’t accept gifts from others. I’m just a minor character in the municipal government. Those who give gifts always have ulterior motives. Now, if you accept it, you’ll have to pay back hundreds of times more later. If you want something, ask your dad for money... Buy less of these kinds of things."
"I know." The wasteful daughter waved her hand nonchalantly, "I’m supporting our fellow townspeople."
Fellow townspeople?
The wasteful daughter saw her confusion and explained, "Wu Mu."
And she said it with sparkling eyes, "It’s a shame I heard Wu Mu attended Sixth Middle School. If he had gone to First Middle School, I could have been at the same school as him during junior high. Maybe we could have even dated."
Date!?
How disgraceful!
Huang Yunxia’s complexion immediately darkened, feeling that sending her daughter overseas for school these past few years had really spoiled her.
But the name Wu Mu sounded vaguely familiar?
"Mom, and you work in cultural and tourism, you don’t even know the big star from our place. Other places are looking everywhere for stars from their hometown to help advertise. You’re really behind the times."
"Right, Mom, you can also invite him to be our tourism ambassador. He’s really good at selling stuff. He made over ninety million in just one week. Just a little promotion from him would probably bring a lot of people here."
The wasteful daughter continued while casually pulling out her phone, "His story is still trending."
Huang Yunxia looked over curiously.
Indeed, it was trending, and not just one but several topics.
But...
#WuMuCuttingLeeks#
#WuMuHarvestingLeeksToTheRoot#
#WhyAreThereSoManyIdiotsGivingMoneyToWuMu#
!!!
All negative trending topics!
Have this kind of person as a tourism ambassador!?
Her wasteful daughter didn’t seem to realize anything was wrong and kept enthusiastically introducing, "He’s so funny. I only learned about him a few days ago from Xiaoyun. Before that, I didn’t know we had such a funny star from here. Mom, if you invite him, remember to include me!"
She continued, clicking on the trending words to show Huang Yunxia the comment section.
The more she looked, the darker Huang Yunxia’s face became.
"Damn, I’m disgusted. How can Wu be so revolting, skimming the cream off people like this and they still give him money!?"
"Wu brainwashed you all? Something worth eight thousand is being resold for thirty thousand and you wiped it off the shelves!?"
"Who is actually buying Wu’s stuff!? Why does someone always buy whatever he releases!?"
"Damn it, no wonder Wu is so arrogant. I would be too if whatever I put on the shelves got bought!"
"You guys just keep enabling this jerk. I’m just waiting for the day he really treats everyone like fools and puts a spaceship on sale for a few hundred billion."
Huang Yunxia’s face darkened as she read through the comments filled with mentions of "dog."
She glared fiercely at her stay-at-home daughter.
I think you must want me to be less secure in my position, wanting me to make room!
The stay-at-home daughter, caught off-guard by the glare, finally realized, "Hey, Wu really is quite interesting. You’d know if you watched his shows. Though his stuff is a bit pricey, it is marked clearly, and he hasn’t deceived anyone. And despite what everyone says, his reputation among celebrities is actually very good."
Huang Yunxia sarcastically responded for once, "Of course it’s good, after all, he has so many kind fellow townspeople!"
Supporting a fellow townsman!
It looks to me like you’re just over your head in infatuation, completely controlled by your fellow townsman!
Huang Yunxia no longer wished to listen to her increasingly improper stay-at-home daughter’s words and abruptly left.
However, it didn’t look good that a vice-mayor responsible for cultural and tourism didn’t know about the hometown’s big star.
The next day at work, she still began searching online for Wu Mu’s information.
And looking through it... her impression was indeed a bit better than yesterday.
Indeed, on the internet many spoke favorably of him, surprisingly enjoying a good reputation.
But that was just a slight improvement.
There were still too many questionable acts.
And he was too unpredictable.
Huang Yunxia shook her head. They weren’t worried about a star with a couple of blemishes, as long as there were no major scandals officially acknowledged by the authorities.
Anyway, it was a mutual need.
If a big scandal blew up, the responsibility wouldn’t fall on them.
But this kind of unpredictable and uncontrollable star was a no-go. After all, inviting him over, you never knew if he would suddenly pull some baffling stunt.
Then the person who had given the final approval would be in trouble.
Just as Huang Yunxia was pondering this, she heard her subordinate report, "Mayor Huang, here is Wu Mu’s file that was requested."
"Good, leave it on the desk."
Huang Yunxia opened the file folder to look, her expression pretty normal at first but then subtly changing.
A murderer for a father?
And currently still in prison?
Well, no wonder this person has such a strange personality.
There’s no way we can hire him now!
Huang Yunxia had never imagined that this big star they had launched could be involved in such a major scandal.
She continued to read.
And then...
"The victim of the accidental killing was Wu Mu’s mother, Yu Xing’er."
The murderer’s father had killed his own mother...
Huang Yunxia felt her heart being viciously squeezed, and her face turned pale as she looked towards the computer screen beside her, at Wu Mu’s dazzling smile.
"How come everything you sell finds a buyer?" Lin Qingyue asked Wu Mu curiously.
"Because I sell good stuff!" Wu Mu declared confidently.
Lin Qingyue gave a small smile.
It was indeed good, though just twenty thousand higher than the official price.
"When you have time, try selling some of my movie tickets," Lin Qingyue joked casually.
Selling movie tickets?
Wu Mu shook his head slightly, "It’s not that it’s impossible, but it feels like I’m getting a raw deal, a bit like a dog licking boots."
Huh?
What does this have to do with getting a raw deal or being a bootlicker?
Lin Qingyue looked at him, puzzled.
Wu Mu laughed heartily, "Let’s wait until the movie we both invest in comes out, then I’ll help you sell those."
After saying that, he changed the subject, "Now it’s the 18th, what do we do if it doesn’t snow?"
Hmm, it had reached the 18th, which they had spoken about earlier, and although the weather had gotten a bit colder, it still hadn’t snowed.
Lin Qingyue was also troubled by this, "I asked around, and they said the snow was blown away by the wind. It’s uncertain when it will actually snow now."
She hesitated, "Let’s wait a couple of days and see."
"Mmm."
If it didn’t snow, they would continue to shoot according to the original plan.
Wu Mu continued to film his part as previously scheduled.
And in the evenings, Lin Qingyue still called him out for walks.
However, he could clearly feel that Lin Qingyue was paying more and more attention to the weather.
Unfortunately, by the 20th, there was still no snow.
"If it doesn’t snow by tomorrow, we’ll bring out the snow machines," Lin Qingyue planned alternatively.
Wu Mu didn’t mind, but unexpectedly, this time nature happened to favor their wishes.
November 21, Thursday.
Wu Mu was still lazing in bed when he was awakened by a series of knocking sounds.
"Wu Mu, Teacher, are you up?"
The voice of a crew member came from outside.
Woken up, Wu Mu groggily looked outside the window to see that it still hadn’t lightened up.
He checked the time, five o’clock in the morning...
Why was he being woken up so early?
Shooting Director Lin’s show often meant getting up early, right?
Wu Mu felt resigned.
However, after he got dressed and out of bed, opening the door, he immediately found out why he was awoken so early today.
Beijing had started heating the buildings, and it was warm inside the room, so he hadn’t noticed much.
But as soon as he opened the door, he was hit by a biting cold wind.
The chill that seeped through the gaps in his sleeves made him shiver involuntarily.
Looking outside, in the still pitch-black night sky, he could faintly make out scattered white snowflakes.
It was snowing.
"Quick, get everyone up."
"No need to cook, everyone will have bread today."
The crew outside was already busy, and he could faintly hear the assistant director Feng Shang’s shouting.
"Wu Mu, Teacher, the director is asking everyone to gather at the entrance."
"Okay, got it."
Wu Mu nodded.
After washing up, he arrived at the hotel entrance and saw Lin Qingyue in the middle of the crowd.
She, too, had got up early without any signs of tiredness; on the contrary, her bright and clear eyes shone with a radiant glow as she looked towards him.
