Rejected by Blood, Embraced by Love: All-Round Star Goes Viral
Chapter 25 Little Zhilia

Chapter 25: Chapter 25 Little Zhilia

He was wearing a light gray loungewear, with two buttons casually undone at the collar, and a pair of black silk-framed glasses perched on his high-bridged nose, his features were strikingly handsome.

Under the lenses were a pair of deep, cold eyes, exuding an elegant and noble temperament, yet with a hint of genteel roguishness.

Gu Zhi instinctively glanced at him, meeting the man’s dark as ink gaze and was taken aback for a moment.

With looks like this, he could instantly outshine all the male stars online.

Gu Wenbai was also taken aback when he saw the man in front of him, "Han Yu? What are you doing here?"

"Living here." The man’s voice was low and magnetic, his deep gaze glanced at the two and finally settled on Gu Zhi, "Need any help?"

Gu Zhi paused and said nothing, while Gu Wenbai was the first to walk over and shook his hand, "No need, sorry to let you see this. This is my... distant cousin, she did something wrong, so I scolded her a bit."

"Is that so?" Qi Hanyu raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze deepening.

Gu Wenbai frowned a little and said awkwardly, "You might not know, my cousin just entered the entertainment circle and previously tied up your Yun Lin for a CP, causing your Qi Family quite some trouble. I’m here to apologize on her behalf, and I’ll make sure to discipline her well in the future."

Qi Hanyu’s thin lips slightly pursed, he didn’t speak, his deep gaze showed no emotion.

Gu Zhi gave a cold smile, uninterested in explaining, opened the door and walked straight inside.

With a "bang", she slammed the door.

Gu Wenbai frowned slightly, glanced back, but couldn’t be bothered to manage her, turned back to the man in front of him, "By the way, haven’t seen you in a while, do you have time to grab a drink?"

"No," Qi Hanyu refused without much expression, "I have something to do later, not convenient for a drink."

Gu Wenbai naturally heard his meaning, didn’t say more, "Alright, then let’s meet another day."

"Oh, I didn’t expect you’re living on the same floor as my cousin, if she bothers you in any way, you must let me know."

Qi Hanyu made a perfunctory "hmm" sound and said no more, directly closing the door.

Seeing this, Gu Wenbai frowned and could only turn away and leave.

Gu Zhi returned to her apartment, backed up the recording, then took a shower and went to sleep, waking up just to appear on a variety show. Standing for the past few days, she was pretty tired too.

The next day, Gu Zhi rested for a full day, spent the morning watching classic films to get a grasp of the entertainment industry here.

There were quite a few classic masterpieces with outstanding acting that were worth studying.

Among them, several films with excellent box office and acclaim, sweeping awards, turned out to have the same person as the lead actor.

The top-tier Emperor of the entertainment industry — Qi Hanyu.

However, when reviewing the script at first, there wasn’t much introduction about this person, only that the male lead Qi Yunlin had an Emperor uncle.

Gu Zhi recalled the man she saw yesterday, squinting her eyes, it seemed the Emperor Qi lived right next door.

In the afternoon, her phone kept dinging with new Weibo notifications.

The reason was that the official account of "Dear Family" released the first set of promotional photos, celebrating the successful premiere of their live broadcast.

They even bought a few trending topics, astonishingly Gu Zhi’s topic surged to the front.

The reason was a famous blogger posting a Weibo under the tag #GuZhiIsSoBeautiful#, including photos of Gu Zhi published by the show crew.

Everyday Sugar V: Is this Gu Zhi!!?

The show crew released several photos of Gu Zhi dining with a candlelight dinner by the seaside, using the evening blue sea and beach as the background, creating a full ambiance.

She posed for the camera with either a gentle smile or a cool and reserved gaze, every picture breathtakingly beautiful and flawless, like visual masterpieces.

A large number of Gu Zhi’s variety show fans promoted her beneath.

Zhiliao Zhiliao: "Yeah! That’s my wife Gu Zhi! Who hasn’t seen my wife’s live frontal photos! [picture]"

My Wife is Golden Cicada: "/Lick the screen sweet or sassy beauty Gu Zhi, still the king of the wild! Investing in her isn’t a loss!"

Knows What Knows: "Such beautiful photos and you didn’t post them!! @GuZhi are you hiding from us! /Angry/Kiss!"

Many bystanders clicked into the tag and were amazed by Gu Zhi’s photos.

Crush: "/Shocked/Shocked No way is this Gu Zhi? How’s that possible? Plastic surgery!?"

Little Bitter Melon: "/Scary when did the local entertainment have such deity-level beauty? I actually didn’t know!"

Mango Not Busy: "This is not plastic surgery this is a whole persona change/color, non-fan, to be honest, Gu Zhi was simply godlike in this variety show, Gu Yiyi was suppressed by her."

Under the tag, it’s all posts from netizens admiring Gu Zhi’s godly looks.

Yet, when Gu Yiyi’s fans saw Gu Zhi’s tag exceeding Gu Yiyi, they were displeased.

Immediately teamed up to flood the plaza.

Yibao Brave Fly: "/Vomit who still doesn’t know Gu Zhi is an ungrateful grabber, how dare they praise her godly looks?"

Yixin Yiyi: "Gu b*tch buys trending topics to whitewash herself huh? I spit."

Yiyi to North Wind: "Come see the real heiress, top-tier godly looks, way better than some grabber/prideful[picture]"

Soon, the arguments became heated, and the hype only grew bigger.

Gu Zhi glanced, uninterested, she was long used to such scenes.

Just as she was about to exit Weibo, she saw a few private messages from fans:

Zhiliao Zhiliao: [Wife, you don’t have to bother with the garbage in the tag plaza, we’ll clean it up, you just work well! Don’t let the haters affect you!]

Zhiliao Zhiliao: [By the way, we set up a new super topic, remember to check it out when you have time～As your fans, what do you think we should be called? How about "Zhiliao"? Any suggestions from you, wife?]

Gu Zhi was stunned for a moment, only feeling an immense sense of warmth, as in her previous life, her fans were also called Little Zhilia.

To her, they were her closest people.

Gu Zhi thought for a moment, replied: [Let’s call it Little Zhilia.]

Zhiliao Zhiliao: [!!!]

Zhiliao Zhiliao: [Oh my god, the wife actually replied to me!!]

Zhiliao Zhiliao: [Is it really you, wife!!? /Shocked]

Gu Zhi couldn’t help but laugh, replied: [Yes.]

She was about to say something when she received a call from Dai Qian:

"Gu Zhi, I received an audition invitation for a role in a microfilm, the third female lead, are you interested? This film’s producer is the famous Director Tang, Tang Jin, but..."

Gu Zhi: "What?"

"This film’s overall director is Qi Yunlin, and the first female lead is Gu Yiyi, neither of these two are easy to get along with." Dai Qian frowned and said, "If you’re in the same crew with them, their fans and CP fans definitely won’t spare you."

It was well-known that Gu Zhi previously tied up with Qi Yunlin for CP hype and had collided with the Gu Family, these two were now like landmines for her, bound to cause trouble if touched.

"It’s nothing, we’re all in the same circle, we’ll eventually meet." Gu Zhi was indifferent, "Send me the script, I’ll have a look."

"Are you sure? Not to mention whether Qi Yunlin would even let you pass, Director Tang is known for being difficult, only recognizing skill over connections. I’m afraid you might be reading it for nothing and the audition is tomorrow."

She’s never acted before, just passing the acting barrier is impossible.

But it was rare for them to reach out, he was tempted.

Gu Zhi’s mouth twitched, her tone calm: "Send me the script, I’ll be there on time for the audition in the afternoon, this role, I can take it."

Dai Qian: "..."

Where did she get that confidence!
