Chapter 9 : Gu Tingjun, Responsible for Her

• As soon as Su Luoluo saw the people in the elevator, her delicate face turned pale.
• Why is Gu Tingjun here?
• It would be terrible if Gu Tingjun found out that she was a fake!
• "Gu Shao, do you know each other?" At this moment, a familiar voice sounded beside her.
• Su Luoluo instantly felt like she was in an ice cave.
• "She is..."
• "I don't know!" Su Luoluo immediately interrupted him, "I mean... how could I know someone as noble as Gu Shao?"
• Su Luoluo's brain quickly spun.
• She didn't understand how Tang Ran ended up with Gu Tingjun, but she absolutely couldn't let Tang Ran expose her identity!
• Su Luoluo smiled and came up with an excuse, "I am a maid in Gu Shao's house."
• She looked at Gu Tingjun with a pleading look in her eyes.
• "Okay."
• Hearing Gu Tingjun's nod, Su Luoluo felt relieved.
• She then turned to Tang Ran.
• Her nails had already dug into her palms as she flattered, "Is this the famous Tang Ran from TV? I've seen the shows you've acted in, you're really good! It's something us ordinary people can only dream of."
• She acted so well that she even fooled herself!
• Best friends for ten years, and she ended up on Zhao's bed!
• "Is that so? I'm just average. Just trying to make a living." Tang Ran smiled sweetly.
• But her eyes were fixed on Su Luoluo.
• Did Su Luoluo know that it was Gu Tingjun that night in Shanghai?
• But Tang Ran quickly dismissed the thought. With Su Luoluo's personality, if she knew it was Gu Tingjun that night, she would definitely stay far away.
• Tang Ran averted her gaze.
• She couldn't reveal any flaws in front of Gu Tingjun!
• "Su Luoluo, why are you here?" Gu Tingjun asked displeased.
• "Ah, I'm sorry, I..." Su Luoluo immediately explained, "Gu Shao, I came out to buy groceries and happened to meet an acquaintance here. We just chatted for a while. I'll go home and cook now."
• Buy groceries and cook?
• Gu Tingjun looked at her suspiciously.
• "Gu Shao, you and Miss Tang still have things to discuss, so I won't disturb you. Goodbye."
• After Su Luoluo finished speaking, she quickly ran down the stairs on the other side.
• Her figure looked like she was fleeing.
• Why was she in such a hurry?
• Gu Tingjun's brows furrowed. Could this woman be here to meet another man?
• Damn it, just thinking about it made Gu Tingjun feel annoyed.
• A dark color flashed in Gu Tingjun's eyes.
• "Gu Shao, was that person your maid? Has she been in your house for a long time?" Tang Ran asked cautiously.
• Gu Tingjun didn't reply. His handsome face remained cold and indifferent as he said, "Miss Tang, consider my proposal."
• "Gu Shao! There's no need to consider."
• "Hmm?" Gu Tingjun was puzzled.
• He would definitely take responsibility for what happened that night.
• But for some reason, he didn't feel that familiar with Tang Ran...
• "Gu Shao, although I really want to become a famous actress and I need money, I will never sell my body." Tang Ran said.
• Tang Ran realized that Gu Tingjun had no intention of marrying her, so she had to take a roundabout approach!
• She immediately squeezed out a few tears.
• Her pitiful appearance made Gu Tingjun's heart tighten.
• "I didn't mean that."
• He couldn't help but think of the stubborn look on the little woman lying beneath him that night, which moved him.
• "What do you mean, Gu Shao? I know that many people like you, and your family is high-class. You would never accept a girl like me." Tang Ran bit her lip and looked up at him.
• The man's handsome features were like a work of art crafted by the heavens, captivating all women.
• In this lifetime, she was just a small actress with no real power. If she could marry Gu Tingjun, it would be different.
• A calculating look flashed in her eyes.
• No matter what, she would seize this golden opportunity.
• "Gu Shao, I understand. You can rest assured that I will disappear from your world. As for that night... I won't tell anyone." Tang Ran said with red eyes, about to turn and leave.
• "Wait."
• Seeing the girl's heartbroken expression, Gu Tingjun, for some reason, mustered up the strength to grab her slender arm and stop her.
• Tang Ran turned her back to Gu Tingjun and secretly curled her lips.
• In the end, according to the original plan, Gu Tingjun took Tang Ran to a private room, the most luxurious VIP room. When Tang Ran entered, she couldn't hide her excitement. She had been thinking about the food here for a long time.
• Now she could finally enjoy this VIP treatment.
• But when she saw Gu Tingjun across from her, she restrained herself a bit. "Gu Shao, there's no need to spend so much. Actually, that night... it was all an accident. I've never blamed you, nor did I ever think that you would have any relationship with a small actress like me."
• The girl spoke with a sense of grievance.
• These words instantly pierced Gu Tingjun's heart.
• It was commendable that she could maintain her purity in the chaotic entertainment industry. It showed that she was a person with principles.
• He couldn't be the kind of person who slept with someone and then didn't take responsibility. What was the difference between him and a beast?
• "Tang Ran, you don't need to belittle yourself. Being an actress is just a profession, and it doesn't make anyone inferior. I said I would take responsibility for you... Gu Tingjun always keeps his word."
• "Really?!" Tang Ran immediately grabbed his slender hand in excitement. But then she was met with Gu Tingjun's cold gaze, and she quickly retracted her hand, apologizing, "I'm sorry, I got too excited."
• As long as she could win over Gu Tingjun, everything would be fine!
• However, Su Luoluo was still a time bomb...
• Su Luoluo ran out of the staircase. It wasn't until she reached the street that she calmed down, gasping for breath.
• Did she reveal anything just now?
• She smiled bitterly. She felt like she was living in darkness now, not worthy of seeing the sunlight.
• If Tang Ran exposed her identity, Su Baoran would definitely deal with his brother.
• But... how did Tang Ran get involved with Gu Tingjun? Should she tell Gu Tingjun at some point? Tang Ran was the type of person who only cared about fame, fortune, and status!
• She knew her too well.
• They both grew up in the orphanage together, but Tang Ran was adopted and gradually became a rising star in the entertainment industry.
• "Forget it, my relationship with Gu Tingjun isn't that good anyway. Besides, he's a grown man, he should be able to tell right from wrong."
• Su Luoluo stuck out her tongue.
• She was already struggling to protect herself, so she didn't have time to worry about whether he was being deceived...
