Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Brother Complex
Gu Peihai had already returned by the time Wei Chuan had left in embarrassment.
He didn’t have the habit of visiting other rooms, so he temporarily didn’t know what had happened.
"Miaomiao, there’s some good news."
The handsome Film Emperor smiled and took his sister away.
He noticed his brother was also resting, "Want to listen too?"
Gu Wangchao nodded modestly.
Avoiding the cameras, Gu Peihai simply stated that Yun Xiuxiu had decided to file for divorce.
"She has been holding back because some evidence was in the opponent’s hands. She was afraid that if they released it, it would affect her and Lin Ci’s life. But now that Wei Cai is suspected of a crime, things will be easier."
Once the police formally arrest Wei Cai, they will take his computer and also access his cloud account. They will obtain those photos and videos, summon Yun Xiuxiu, get her consent, and the police will completely delete all the photos and videos, not giving Wei Cai the chance.
Moreover, at this time, proposing a divorce and presenting evidence of infidelity and domestic violence will ensure a hundred percent success rate.
Divorce is certain, and the things the other party threatened will be deleted by the police, leaving no worries. This is already a very good outcome.
Gu Wangchao nodded, "The sooner we handle it, the less impact it will have on the child."
"I think so too, and," expressed Gu Peihai, "I didn’t expect Wu Ti to join the parent exchange meeting later."
Wu Ti is a top male star, has been in the business for years without issue, and has his own ways.
Before lunch, his son followed Miaomiao out, and when they returned, he suddenly said he felt his sister liked her elder sister better than her brother.
This comment was sour, but upon thinking it over, he realized his son was referring to Miaomiao’s recent closeness with Lin Ci.
This closeness was abrupt.
He then associated it with recent rumors, later learned from staff about a parent exchange meeting, and decided to go over proactively, realizing Director Wang was actually absent, which made things clearer.
"He also provided a very important matter."
Gu Peihai pulled at his lips, "Not only are Wei Cai and that director from Mengkong Entertainment suspected of money laundering, but Mengkong Entertainment itself is suspected of tax evasion and has been reported. Soon, the investigation results will be out."
The current situation is that there is a team investigating Mengkong Entertainment, and at this time, directly reporting a certain director for money laundering will immediately draw attention, leading directly to Wei Cai.
Once Wei Cai goes in, Yun Xiuxiu, with the help of lawyer Liu Qin, will present evidence of infidelity and domestic violence, concluding the matter.
Gu Wangchao frowned slightly, "However, in this way, Mrs. Yun might not be able to come for the following few sessions."
Once Wei Cai goes in, to avoid negative influence, the program team should not invite Yun Xiuxiu.
Besides, Wei Cai is after all Lin Ci’s father, and his imprisonment will affect Lin Ci too. Though the evidence of infidelity and domestic violence can prevent others from blaming Yun Xiuxiu and her daughter, Lin Ci’s future is uncertain.
In this world, there are very few perfect solutions; it all depends on what the parties choose and discard.
Gu Peihai estimated the time, investigating, arresting, and confessing; this process is actually quite lengthy. The show has four more episodes, so about a month, and it’s possible that by then, the show will have all been live-streamed.
Food is limited, and Gu Wangchao ultimately decided to use the fish in two ways.
"Add the fish head and tail with some fish belly pieces for soup, and fry the rest to eat."
Remembering his sister didn’t like eating green vegetables, he bent down and chuckled softly, "Let’s try winter melon tonight? Sometimes when winter melon is handled well, its flavor surpasses braised pork."
Tuanzi’s eyes widened.
"Okay, okay, let’s have winter melon tonight."
Seeing Gu Wangchao bend down to talk to her, she took the opportunity to nuzzle his face.
"Brother Wangchao is really amazing, he must be very popular."
Gu Peihai leaned aside, chuckled at this, "Of course, your brother Wangchao used to receive love letters all the time; he was quite a popular campus idol back then."
Tuanzi’s eyes sparkled immediately.
"Campus idol?"
She raised her little paw and circled Gu Wangchao a few times.
"Idol! Brother is an idol!"
Gu Wangchao felt a bit embarrassed.
He wouldn’t argue with his sister, straightening up, he glanced at a brother with a playful expression.
"Aside from elementary school, I never attended the same school with you at the same time; how did you know?"
He was several years apart from his older brother; though they went to the same middle school, they were never there simultaneously.
Gu Peihai halted.
His expression management was good, still able to smile at this time.
"Mom and Dad said it, boastfully complaining how popular you were during your student days."
Gu Wangchao: ▼_▼
He was sure he hadn’t told his parents nor had brought love letters home.
As for the school, the class teacher said if he handled them well, they wouldn’t inform the parents.
How did his elder brother know?
Afraid of being discovered by his younger brother, Gu Peihai came up with an excuse to head out.
"We’ve got vegetables but no rice or flour, Miaomiao, come on, let’s go work to exchange for food."
He explained that a household in the village was building a house and needed help moving bricks.
"I’ll move the bricks, and you cheer me on."
Tuanzi looked at his arms, which were strong and powerful, but definitely not as strong as hers.
Perhaps she’ll end up moving the bricks instead.
Brother and sister went out.
Gu Wangchao seemed to see an Alaska leading his sister out in a panic.
He didn’t ask the assistant for his phone.
Once the episode ended, he would investigate the truth.
The two arrived at the brick-moving site.
The house owner saw Gu Peihai bringing a little girl and was somewhat helpless.
"Uncle, Miaomiao is very strong."
She directly found a basket, loaded it with a stack of bricks, and lifted it effortlessly as she ran off.
She might not be inherently strong, but with Inner Strength, she was indeed impressive.
Gu Peihai suddenly had a bad feeling.
Wanting to show off in front of his sister, he might end up with her displaying the ability while he cheered her on.
The premonition came true.
Having never moved bricks before, Gu Peihai was exhausted after a while, gritting his teeth to persist. Meanwhile, his sister would whisk by like a gust of wind now and then.
[Brother: drenched in sweat; Sister: fresh and clear]
[Brother: bricks +5; Sister: bricks +20]
[Film Emperor, get it together, don’t lose]
By evening, the two returned home with their reward.
They received quite a bit of rice and flour, and even half a chicken!
"Fry, stew, or roast?"
Thinking of the fragrant chicken, she couldn’t help but swallow.
Seeing her cousin not answering, she turned to look.
But saw under the setting sun her eldest cousin’s expression was obscure, still handsome, yet carrying a frightening fierceness, like a drawn sword, sharp indeed.
"Brother Pei Hai?"
[Ancient Martial System: He heard staff discussions and knew about Wei Chuan’s matter]
Tuanzi blinked.
"Brother Pei Hai, are you a brother complex?"
Gu Peihai: "!"
The fierceness in his brow disappeared, panic flared in the Film Emperor.
"Miaomiao, where did you hear this phrase?"
Actually, it’s the system teasing.
It teased that the host’s brother was a sister complex and also teased that Gu Peihai was both a sister and a brother complex.
Tuanzi did not reveal it, smilingly said, "A friend. So, Brother Pei Hai, are you a brother complex?"
