Entertainment: Wanted to Acquire the Company on the First Day of Signing

29: Teaching people how to hang bannersLu Qingyu was stunned for only a split second, then immediately pulled her up while swimming. The woman had already lost consciousness; she must have blacked out upon hitting the water.

By the time Lu Qingyu carried her onto the shore, he realized there were already quite a few people around.

The Program Production Team’s cameras also rushed over, and the male and female guests from the other side had hurried over as well.

There was a lighthouse here. The woman had been standing on it for a long time. A few people had noticed her and were just about to warn her to be careful when they saw her jump off. Passersby immediately shouted for help, and those who knew how to swim rushed into the water to save her.

By the time everyone realized the woman was committing suicide, it was already too late. The beach was far away, so people could only scream. Four swimming coaches saw it and immediately swam out, but everyone thought it was impossible to save her. Who could have known that in the next moment, Lu Qingyu would bring her back up?

The people in the sea saw that she had been rescued and also returned to the shore.

The woman had choked on quite a bit of water, so Lu Qingyu immediately administered first aid. Two minutes later, she spat out a mouthful of water, coughed for a long time, and finally regained consciousness.

Lu Qingyu finally let out a long sigh of relief and sat on the ground, but to his surprise, the woman started wailing the moment she woke up.

”I was so scared. I thought I was going to die.”

The young woman’s name was Shen Lele. She had broken up with her boyfriend and, in a moment of despair, jumped off the lighthouse. She regretted it the instant she jumped, but it was already too late.

She thought she was going to die, but she didn’t expect to be saved.

The Program Production Team’s female guests had also come over. Bai Tingxin and Yao Yiyi immediately crouched down beside Shen Lele, acting as considerate Young Ladies, and hugged her to comfort her.

”You must be terrified. It’s okay now.”

”Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable? We’ll call an ambulance for you.”

Shen Lele shook her head while crying.

”I’m fine. I... I won’t try to kill myself ever again.”

Shen Lele was crying very bitterly, and tears fell like pearls, pitter-patter.

Yao Yiyi said: ”What made you feel so desperate? Why don’t you tell us, and see if we can help you?”

Shen Lele covered her face, speaking between sobs.

”I... I broke up with my boyfriend. He got together with my best friend. I did something stupid because I couldn’t think straight for a moment.”

The Program Production Team was still recording. Because of the accident with Shen Lele, many people were now glued to the live stream. Hearing Shen Lele say that her boyfriend and best friend had gotten together, they immediately perked up, eager for the gossip.

”The story is great, please tell us more.”

”If you’re talking about this, I’m not sleepy anymore.”

”So curious, I can stay here all afternoon.”

After a long while, Shen Lele’s tears still wouldn’t stop.

”My boyfriend and I had been together since college. He was the one who pursued me. He said he would treat me well for the rest of his life. We were together for six years. After graduation, my parents even helped him arrange a job. We had already taken our wedding photos, and we had even bought a new house, but I never expected him to betray me.”

”My best friend was also my college classmate. Three days ago, I went on a business trip. My work went smoothly, so I came home early, only to discover that they had actually gotten together—and in the new house where we were about to get married.”

The comment section was exploding, and the content was starting to take a strange turn.

”Wow, ’guard against fire, theft, and your best friend’—that saying isn’t for nothing.”

”This Young Lady is quite pretty; she really ran into a scumbag.”

”Does anyone know this Young Lady? I want to know who her best friend is!”

Shen Lele continued: ”It turns out they had been together behind my back since college, and they kept it from me for all these years. We were about to get married; how could he do this to me?”

Bai Tingxin was very sympathetic after hearing Shen Lele’s story: ”This man is really too much. If he didn’t like you, why did he waste your time?”

Yao Yiyi echoed: ”It’s okay, little sister. It’s just a man; it’s no big deal. Since you already know they are such trash, the worst that happens is you never pay attention to them again.”

Many people nearby also chimed in to persuade her: ”Young girl, there are plenty of good men out there. Don’t be sad for a scumbag.”

”Exactly, you’re so pretty, you’ll meet a better man in the future.”

”Just pretend they’re dead. Isn’t it enough to just stop associating with them?”

Everyone was trying to persuade Shen Lele, reasoning with her and telling her that it was the man who was in the wrong, that he was a scumbag, and that she should stay away from him in the future.

Shen Lele cried incessantly, and everyone’s persuasion was useless. The ambulance hadn’t arrived yet, and no one dared to leave for fear that the girl might do something else. At this moment, Lu Qingyu suddenly stood up, his 1.82-meter height blocking the sunlight above Shen Lele.

”I don’t think that’s right.”

Everyone’s gaze turned toward Lu Qingyu. Lu Qingyu crouched down and said:

”You can’t just pretend he’s dead.”

Live stream: ”What does that mean? Lu Qingyu isn’t trying to get Shen Lele to take back that scumbag boyfriend, is he?”

”Lu Qingyu isn’t going to say that this Young Lady should thank this boyfriend for teaching her a valuable life lesson, right? If he says that, I’ll be disgusted.”

”I’m a bit disappointed in Lu Qingyu. If you don’t know how to speak, don’t talk nonsense. As expected, you men can’t understand a woman’s true heart.”

”What’s the point of winning back that kind of man? If he can cheat with her best friend now, even if she wins him back, who’s to say he won’t cheat with someone else later?”

”Little brother is still too naive; this topic doesn’t suit you. Please stop talking.”

Just when everyone thought Lu Qingyu was going to persuade Shen Lele to fight for the man, Lu Qingyu lifted his chin and said:

”You can’t just pretend he’s dead; you have to personally destroy him.”

The atmosphere at the scene froze for three seconds. What did they just hear?

Bai Tingxin: ???

Yao Yiyi: ”Wh-what?”

Shen Lele was stunned, her tears stopping: ”What do you mean?”

Lu Qingyu said: ”Scumbag man and cheap woman—you can’t let them get off easy. Do your ex-boyfriend and your best friend have jobs?”

Shen Lele: ”Yes, my boyfriend is a civil servant, and my best friend works at a state-owned enterprise.”

Lu Qingyu smiled: ”Young Lady, then what are you waiting for? Go to the labor market, hire two people, and go hang a banner right outside their workplaces.”

”Pfft.”

Someone couldn’t hold it in. Come on, one is a civil servant, the other is in a state-owned enterprise. If you hang a banner for people at those two places, would the parties involved have any face left?

Those are public officials; this is like digging up their ancestors’ graves.

Bai Tingxin: ”Wouldn’t it be fine to just report them to their workplaces directly?”
