Chapter 622: Gu Pingting Disowned by the Gu Family!
The photo of Gu Pinting and the director under the HD camera is far more scandalous than the blurry bar photo of Gu Qiusha back in the day.Despite such hidden rules being nothing in the entertainment industry’s cesspool, perhaps with a new rising star tomorrow, everyone will soon forget.
But the problem is, Gu Pinting is no ordinary person.
She is the young lady of the Gu Family, born into a prestigious scholarly family, and her first drama in the entertainment circle has already tainted her reputation. This blemish is a hurdle she cannot overcome.
The Gu Family has strict family rules, and the last thing tolerated is improper conduct between men and women.
Gu Pinting’s face turned pale with fright.
"How could this happen? Who, who is framing me? Xi Zuzi, was it you?!"
Xi Rubao replied with a hint of a smile in her beautiful eyes, calmly retorting, "Wasn’t it you who did it?"
Xi Rubao clapped her hands joyfully: "Gu Pinting, you resorted to all means to become a leading actress. You should have known it would get exposed one day! That director is so old and riddled with acne scars, yet you still pounced on him. I truly see you in a new light. You constantly look down on us as being from the county, huh, turns out your so-called imperial city socialites climb into old men’s beds in exchange for resources? I’d rather spend my life as a county girl than chase after being an imperial city socialite like you!"
The relatives hurriedly chimed in, "No, no, no, our socialite circle does not recognize such a person. Gu Pinting utterly disgraces us, lowering her status like this!"
"Didn’t her family invest in the drama production? Why would she need to get involved with the director like that?"
"I just heard that the third family branch made investment mistakes and is seven billion in debt. The money for the production might not have even been given. Besides, she’s put on weight multiple times, and if she doesn’t step up, won’t the production kick her out, leaving her disgraced?"
"Still, she shouldn’t do such shameless things!"
"Did you forget about her mom, Sun Jiao, who was obsessed with internet celebs, turning her bedroom into a delivery trash heap? Where is the bottom line for her family?"
"Exactly, the old saying is true, like mother, like daughter..."
The relatives were practically stuffed from the gossip.
Xi Zuzi’s red lips curled slightly as she spoke slowly: "So, Gu Pinting, can you officially roll out now?"
Gu Pinting, now the target of everyone, trembled upon hearing this, finally understanding Xi Zuzi’s real meaning earlier, telling her to "roll out."
It’s about driving her out of the Gu Family.
Not just ordinarily leaving, but being completely erased from the family genealogy!
Just like what happened to Gu Qiusha back then.
Even worse than Gu Qiusha, because she won’t ever get the chance for unanimous approval, nor will anyone kneel down to beg forgiveness for her!
"Dad, save me..."
"Aunt, save me...!"
Gu Pinting panicked.
But, Gu Pingzhi had quietly sneaked away at some point, and Gu Shiyin, aside from sending her that message, had not made an appearance.
"Grandpa, save me! Sob sob..."
In her desperation, Gu Pinting turned to Mr. Gu for help.
Mr. Gu’s aged eyes looked at her, feeling utterly exhausted.
"Pinting, you shouldn’t have brought Sha Sha’s photo out again... You’re bringing this upon yourself, no one can help you..."
One is his daughter, the other is his granddaughter.
Faced with such an issue, can he be lenient with his granddaughter and leave his daughter who left home twenty years ago to feel bitterly disappointed?
"Gu Pinting, stop begging grandpa or grandma. Family rules are not to be tainted. Since you’ve committed such an indecent disgraceful act, you should accept the punishment with satisfaction."
The Second Uncle spoke up, making the decision on behalf of Mr. Gu and also helping him out of the situation,
"I hereby represent all the Gu Family clan members in announcing that from today, Gu Pinting is expelled from the Gu Family!"
