The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise Chapter 452
Advertisement
The winter wind in Yu City in the middle of the night was biting cold.
Gu Min remained sitting on the ground for a long while, for he'd finally realized that the young lady he had taken a liking to might be a pink-haired bad*ss.
That said, he still thought she was cool, especially when she had come near him just now. Her eyes were so bright that they looked like stars.
Gu Min put his hand over his heart, which was pumping rapidly. He then called Gu Yanqi. "I think this is it. I just found the true love of my life. You don't know this, but the little sweetheart that'll be your future sister-in-law is so cool. Her eyes are like two obsidian stones, her lips are like cherries, her brows are like two crescent moons, and her face… Oh, her face… I've never seen such a perfect, pretty face before. It's like the goddess of love has presented herself in front of me…"
Gu Yanqi knew that Gu Min was a womanizer and used to date a couple of girls at the same time. What's more, he would always call Gu Yanqi whenever he came across a pretty girl and tell him that he had found his true love.
That said, this was the first time he'd described his "true love" in so much detail. Gu Yanqi put the call on speaker, and Li Nanli was just sitting beside him. After he heard what Gu Min had said, he chuckled and said, "What your brother is saying is that she is anything but a human being?"
Gu Min was slightly stunned when he heard Li Nanli's voice. Then, he snarled, "You're just jealous that I've found my true love!"
"Gu Min," Gu Yanqi said in a stern voice. "He's Young Master Li, so watch your manners."
Oh great, his brother was hanging out with Young Master Li again.
"I'm sorry, President Li. Please forgive me for my bad manners."
Li Nanli then replied, "I have a girlfriend, and we have been together for more than two months. She loves me deeply, and nothing in this world could split us apart."
Gu Min was speechless.
He was there to tell them that he had found the true love of his life, but before he had the chance, Li Nanli had shamelessly shown off his relationship with his girlfriend in front of him.
'Alright, alright, you win.'
"Then I wish you two will be together forever," Gu Min said before turning to Gu Yanqi and asking him to stand further away from Li Nanli.

Then, he said, "I just wanted to tell you that our father does not support me. He's trying to break us apart, so you have to help me, brother."
Rubbing his temple in annoyance, Gu Yanqi gave a perfunctory answer and proceeded to hang up the call.
Li Nanli looked at him, and Gu Yanqi shrugged. "Well, guess we spoiled him too much. He has a crush on his junior, but she doesn't like him at all, so he's asking for my help."
What had Li Nanli been thinking?
Well, Li Nanli did not think too much. Besides, he even proposed a few plans for Gu Min because he was in a good mood.
He said, "Well, he can give the girl a bank card."
'Who the hell would give his girlfriend a bank card? Do you think everyone's Fu Zhi?!'
That said, Gu Yanqi still decided to propose this plan to Gu Min.
…
Let's forget about Gu Min for now and talk about someone else.
The news about Fu Zhi lasted a few days on the internet and did not seem like it was going to go away anytime soon.
Most people had lost count of the number of times Fu Zhi's name had appeared on Weibo's hot topics. It was just like after the International Physics Competition and the journal incident, so the netizens were becoming more and more drawn to Fu Zhi.
Several unpopular entertainment companies realized the business opportunity brought about by Fu Zhi and they all contacted Fu Zhi and Xu Wei, saying that they wanted to bring Fu Zhi into the entertainment industry and create a new era that belonged to her.
As for some big entertainment companies, such as Star Maker, their presidents called Xi Man directly.
"About the thing on Weibo... I'm sure you've heard that the netizens are raising funds for Fu Zhi so she can pursue an acting career, right? However, I haven't seen you guys do anything about it. Does that mean that Fu Zhi is really going to join the entertainment industry as an actress?"
Although he had tried his best to calm down, Xi Man was still able to hear a flicker of excitement in his voice through the phone. However, since he had not discussed it with Fu Zhi yet, he replied matter-of-factly, "I haven't talked with Zhizhi yet, so I can't give you an answer."
"Let me talk to her! I will surely be able to talk her into it!" The president's eyes lit up. "Isn't her brother one of the actors of Star Maker? You see, he has about 50 million followers right now, and if Fu Zhi comes to Star Maker, I'm sure she will be able to break Ye Shiyun's record with ease."

"Do you think Zhizhi really cares about that?"
Well, that was true. If attention was what Fu Zhi cared about, she would have continued to make music as "Addiction".
The president cleared his throat and said, "I understand that Fu Zhi is not fond of too much attention. It's just that Star Maker has the best resources in the entire country, so we are her best option if she is really keen on becoming an actor. I assure you that we won't take a single penny from her and we will do everything in our power to make her the most sought-after actor in the world!"
Xi Man rolled his eyes and replied, "Alright, come off it. Do you really think that I don't know what you're trying to do? One song from Zhizhi would be enough to make the celebrities in your company famous. If she really joins your company, not only will you be able to push your company to a whole new level, but everyone in the capital will also have to step aside."
'Well…' The president stroked his nose. Xi Man was half-right. Fu Zhi was indeed a powerhouse and could bring a lot of profit to his company if she really joined him, but at the same time, she was famous as well.
How famous was she?
A few of Ye Shiyun's fans scolded Fu Zhi on the internet, but their actions were discovered by one of their mothers.
That fan's mother was Fu Zhi's top fan. She adored Fu Zhi a lot and treated her like her daughter. Thus, she was devastated when she found out that her own biological daughter antagonized Fu Zhi.
Fu Zhi was unlike other celebrities. Most of her fans were mothers. Some of her fans even wanted to marry her due to her great charisma, and she had gained the favor of her audience after the country had started repeatedly calling her "daughter".
Therefore, someone like her, who had a great foundation, was destined to get famous if she decided to pursue an acting career.
After Fu Zhi signed a contract with Star Maker, he could ask her to help other actors or actresses when she became a well-known actress.
It was a good plan, but unfortunately, the president of Star Maker failed to strike a deal with Xi Man.
During lunchtime, he kept mumbling that Fu Zhi was a great researcher, she loved her country, she was definitely Fu Zhao's daughter, and she was the new president of the Fu Corporation, so she would certainly be a successful actress.
"Hey, you know what?" A certain employee of Star Maker called out to her colleague while they were in the pantry. She wanted to tell her colleague what she'd overheard while having lunch just now, but she could not remember the first half of the sentence, so she just told her colleague the second half of the sentence. "Our boss said that he failed to strike a deal with Fu Zhi, and Fu Zhi is destined to become a successful actress."
Her colleague then told the same thing to her friend. Then, her friend told her friend, and the cycle continued. In the end, this rumor was going around the company. As long as any actor or actress was willing to imitate Fu Zhi, the company would do everything they could to promote him or her and make them famous!
People said that actors or actresses who did not aim to get a best actor award were not good.
Therefore, the moment the actresses who were not doing well in the company heard the rumor, they instantly changed their public personas. They felt that they were too naive. Their public persona was not special enough, which was why they could not get famous no matter how hard they tried.
As for Fu Zhi, she had become famous due to her bluntness, her achievements at the International Physics Competition, her performance at the basketball match, and her suona and guzheng performance at the Mu Family's gathering.
The actresses and their agents soon understood something.
If they wanted to be famous, they had to be like Fu Zhi. Of course, being like Fu Zhi was far from enough. If they wanted to be more famous than Fu Zhi, they might need to hire a few good-looking men and dance for them.
Fu Zhi had formed a heart with her hand? Then, they had to do a split, perform a 360-degree back-turning kick, stretch their leg over their head, and form a heart with their feet.
Fu Zhi had brainwashed everyone and helped China get an opportunity to hold the International Physics Competition? Then, they should bring down all the pyramid schemes in China.
Fu Zhi could play the suona? Then, they should become exorcists.
Fu Zhi could throw a basketball with one hand? Then, they should throw it with their mouth!
In any case, no matter what Fu Zhi did, they just had to improve it 10,000 times. Then, they would become famous!
