The Best Actor's Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! Chapter 177 Compensation Of 20 Million Yuan

Murong Yunxi gave Gu Yuxuan a supercilious look and even pushed her hands aside in disgust. "So disgusting. I don't want to have affairs with you."

Gu Yuxuan pretended to be sad and cried, "Hum, you don't love me now because you've become famous."

Murong Yunxi went gooseflesh, exaggeratedly stroking her arm up and down with both hands. She said, "Cousin, quickly take your Xuanxuan away. I can't stand her."

Gu Yuxuan finally stopped joking with Murong Yunxi and happily laughed.

Murong Yunxi rolled her eyes at Gu Yuxuan and gave her a flick on the forehead.

Rubbing her forehead, Gu Yuxuan turned to Murong Xu and said, "I'm eating over here with Xiao Xi. You have to welcome many acquaintances present. Just go."

Murong Xu nodded his head and softly said, "Don't run about. Just stay here with Xiao Xi. Find me if you need me."

"Yeah, okay, go now." Gu Yuxuan impatiently urged Murong Xu to leave. Then she started to circle around the long dining-table holding Murong Yunxi's arm.

Gu Yuxuan picked up two plates, kept one and handed the other to Murong Yunxi. Then she began choosing the food.

They respectively took two cupcakes and a gla.s.s of orange juice, walked over to a rest chair, and sat down.

"Xiao Xi, where have you recently been? I haven't heard from you for a while."

"Oh, I went to H city to see Gong Yu."

"Oh? Did you visit the crew?"

"Yes! Haven't you watched the news recently? It was all in the news."

"Wow, how awesome it is. Being a star is really different that I can know your activities from the news."

"Come on, even if other people don't know me, you must know. What kind of star am I? At most, I just have the advantage of a.s.sociating with Gong Yu."

"Well, what did the news say?"

"Nothing, it was just a lot of hearsay nonsense."

"Our company is so busy these days with preparing for the anniversary celebration. I was so busy that I missed your news."

"It didn't matter. The news was not true anyway. Look less at those kinds of garbage."

"By the way, Xiao Xi, we'd like to invite some popular stars to present our company's anniversary celebration. Would you like to come with Gong Yu?"

"I'm afraid no. Gong Yu is quite busy recently with his new play, probably having no time. And originally, we also don't like public appearance."

"But Gong Yu wants to run his own company in the future. It is a good chance for him to expand contacts with other stars. This time, our company has invited a lot of popular stars."

Speaking of this, Murong Yunxi thought for a while and immediately said, "I will follow Gong Yu's decision, so I will ask him later."

Soon, they ate up the foods in their plates. Gu Yuxuan pulled Murong Yunxi and said, "Let's go to get some fruit to eat."

Murong Yunxi nodded and walked to the food area again with Gu Yuxuan.

They continued to chat with each other. Suddenly, Gu Yuxuan's elbow accidentally touched a gla.s.s of drink nearby, and the gla.s.s fell aside with the drink spilled out.

"Ah! d.a.m.n it!" a woman nearby exclaimed. She quickly put down her plate and shook her wet skirt with both hands.

Gu Yuxuan and Murong Yunxi turned their heads and saw the drink really wetted the woman's dress. The white, hand-made cheongsam was stained with the orange juice.

Gu Yuxuan hurried forward and lowered her head to help to clean the woman's dress, keeping saying sorry to her. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I didn't intend to do that. How about I clean it for you?"

The woman was about in her 40s or 50s, looking fierce and aggressive.

"Clean it? Do you know how much this hand-made cheongsam costs? How can you wash it? What if it's washed out? I'm d.a.m.ned unlucky. My good mood has been ruined by encountering you, someone so careless and negligent." The woman found Murong Yunxi and Gu Yuxuan unfamiliar and thought them n.o.body and certainly not the daughters of rich families, so she spoke without any politeness.

Seeing the woman so unforgiving, Gu Yuxuan also felt dissatisfied and said, "I have already apologized and promised to wash it for you. Or, I would compensate you another one. Why are you so rude?"

The woman raised her head and stared at Gu Yuxuan in a cunning look. "Well, am I? I haven't said anything to blame you yet. What a bad-tempered girl! You did something wrong, and now you lost your temper first. What an eye-opener! I wonder what kind of education do you have? Don't argue with me if I call you b.u.mpkin. You said you would compensate a new one to me. But do you know how much it is? Can you afford it? "This is a master's hand-made and unique limited-edition custom model."

Hearing that, Gu Yuxuan knew that she really couldn't afford it. But in momentum, she still didn't want to lose to this woman, so she said, "So what? You just tell me the price and I will pay for you."

The woman disdainfully looked at Gu Yuxuan once again and said, "Oh, you are really ignorant. Do you know how much the master-customized cheongsam is? Do you think it's only worth thousands? You are so funny. You can't afford it even if you sell yourself."

These words not only angered Gu Yuxuan but also Murong Yunxi. Murong Yunxi ruthlessly glared at the woman and coldly said, "Well, the key is to tell us about the price! We are not afraid to know the price you tell us. On the contrary, I am afraid that you will not dare to believe how much we can pay."

The woman looked Murong Yunxi up and down. Though she didn't know Murong Yunxi, she seemed to be familiar with her and afraid that Murong Yunxi was the daughter of a rich family, so she asked in a softer tone, "Who are you? It's none of your business."

Murong Yunxi completely ignored the question and impatiently said, "You just want the compensation. So, quickly tell us the price."

The woman looked Murong Yunxi up and down again. She confirmed that Murong Yunxi was not from any rich family she knew, so she said, "This cheongsam is worth ten million yuan."

Gu Yuxuan was shocked and asked, "Ten million? Are you kidding me?"

The woman looked at Gu Yuxuan as if she was looking at a b.u.mpkin. She said, extremely arrogant, "Do you know Master Zhenyi? She is a famous master of customization. Every dress made by her costs tens of millions. And she makes no more than three dresses each year, which are the best of the best. I think you are totally a yokel. I really don't know how you got in today."

Ridiculed by the woman, Gu Yuxuan's face turned both livid and red.

Murong Yunxi took out a checkbook from her handbag, filled it with a number, and then handed it to the woman.

"Here you are, take it! A check of 20 million yuan. I double the price, and I want your cheongsam now."

The woman was slightly surprised, took the check, and then carefully checked it.

Murong Yunxi figured out the woman's intention at a glance and coldly said, "Stop looking. It's definitely true."

The woman confirmed that the check was true. She was a little timid and looked at Murong Yunxi once again. When she was about to say something, Murong Yunxi did not give her a chance.

"Get your check and leave your dress. Now it belongs to us."

The woman suddenly looked livid, knowing they were to make her embarra.s.sed on the spot.

Because of the noise there, many people have come around. The woman instantly felt even more embarra.s.sed. Holding the check, she wasn't sure to accept it or not.

"Xiaoyu, what's wrong?" A middle-aged man came over. He looked very serious and unpleasing with his fatty face.

When the woman saw her husband coming, she immediately seemed to have a backer. She stepped forward to take the man's arm, and aggrievedly said, "Honey, they are bullying me."

Gu Yuxuan immediately felt speechless. "She who first offended was the first to complain. That's enough!"

Gu Yuxuan stared at the woman and said, "Madam, please make it clear. Who is the real bully?"

The man coldly looked at Gu Yuxuan and took his wife's arm, acting as a reliable husband who would give his wife support.

The woman got support from her husband and firmly complained about Gu Yuxuan and Murong Yunxi. "They soiled my cheongsam, humiliated me with their money, gave me a check, and asked me to take my cheongsam off for them in public."

Hearing his wife's accusation, the husband suddenly turned to be angry and said, "How dare you? As young girls, you are so unreasonable and arrogant. It's really not proper."

Murong Yunxi was not afraid of the man and raised her head to glare at him. "Do you dare to let your wife repeat what she just said in public?"

The woman looked at Murong Yunxi as if she had suffered a lot and been wronged. "I just said everything."

Murong Yunxi chuckled and said, "You are such a bare face liar! When my friend just apologized to you and said she'd clean your dress for you, you not only didn't accept the apology but also abused my friend as a b.u.mpkin. You said your cheongsam, the customization from Master Zhenyi, cannot be washed. You said it worth 10 million yuan, and you asked for double compensation. According to the price you said, we gave you the money you wanted. However, you were still not satisfied and now even accuse us of bullying you. Who is the bully?"

After hearing that, the onlookers all looked at the woman's cheongsam. Someone couldn't help but point it out by saying, "I did buy the clothes made by Master Zhenyi, but I only knew one which cost 10 million yuan. Others worth just a few million. Even if your dress is truly from Master Zhenyi, it shouldn't cost so much. Also, you even wanted double compensation! It's too much!"

The other onlookers also began to talk about it. After all, the woman still held the check in her hand. Although they couldn't see the numbers on it, they naturally believed in Murong Yunxi's words.

The woman heard everyone's criticism and hurriedly explained, "No, I didn't. I didn't want double compensation. She decided to give me 20 million yuan herself."

When everyone heard "20 million yuan", they didn't care what the woman said before but focused on the money.

"Wow, you really asked for a compensation of 20 million yuan! It's really unbelievable. You are so bad."

"That's right. They are just two little girls. It'll be okay to have your clothes dry-cleaned. Double compensation is too much."

All of a sudden, the woman looked very embarra.s.sed, overwhelmed by the discussion. She thought that she was treated unfairly and felt it even more improper to hold the check of 20 million yuan. Even her husband suddenly felt that his wife had overdone it, and angrily looked at her, felt completely losing his face.
