Chapter 817: On the Verge of Collapse

xin fell asleep, Yang Zu went to the hospital with a pot of chicken soup that Wang Ma had just stewed."General Gu, this is—" Yang Zuo walked into the ward and just as he was about to speak, Gu Chi mad...Looking at her wolfing down the food, Xiao Tang and Tang Lijia glanced at each other. Xiao Tang clearly wanted to say something, but Tang Lijia shook her head at her, signaling her not to speak up.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Tang swallowed all those words back down.

After dinner, Gu Ke Yu returned to his room. Xiao Tang looked at Tang Li Jia, she shook her head helplessly: “Her mood must be particularly bad now. If you ask again, she will fall apart. Everyone needs some space to calm down. Let her take some time to relax first.”

Xiaodang felt that Tang Lijia's words were very reasonable. She nodded unhappily: "It's a good thing I didn't speak up, otherwise Ke Yu would be even more miserable!"

Gu Ke Yu washed and went straight to bed without applying any skincare. She was so tired that she fell asleep groggily. All she wanted was to escape in her dreams.

Just a moment.

The next morning, her biological clock woke her up promptly as usual. She glanced at the time and unconsciously frowned, feeling a sense of emptiness in her heart.

Today she doesn't have to go to the film set, so what will she do today...

Gu Ke Yu got up and freshened up, preparing to go downstairs to buy breakfast. After all, yesterday's dinner was prepared by Xiao Tang and Tang Li Jia, she had to reciprocate the gesture.

Gu Ke Yu had just changed her shoes and was about to leave when Xiao Tang came out to wash up. She widened her eyes and said, "Ke Yu, where are you going To the film set"

"No, I'm just taking a break. I'm going downstairs to buy breakfast, what do you want" she replied casually.

Xiao Tang's expression was tinged with hesitation, and she spoke in a rather embarrassed tone: "How about you rest for a while longer I'll take care of buying breakfast."

With the current turbulent situation, if Gu Ke Yu goes out again, it might be very detrimental to her safety. Xiao Tang is worried about her well-being.

Gu Ke Yu knew, she waved her hand: "Don't worry, I'm prepared with a mask, it won't be a problem at all. I'll go quickly and come back soon, it'll only take a little while."

She had already advised him, Gu Ke'yu must have known the risks involved. Since she insisted, Xiaotang had no reason to stop her anymore: "Okay."

Here live mostly elderly people, who probably don't pay much attention to entertainment news, so Gu Ke Yu was able to leave relatively smoothly.

When she bought breakfast and went back, she realized something was wrong. The door was open, and there was a lot of noise inside, like a lot of people were there.

Gu Ke Yu's heart skipped a beat unconsciously. She hurried over to take a look and realized there were several burly men inside, one or two with menacing looks, seeming like they might be gangsters.

Her face instantly paled. Xiao Tang saw her return and immediately ran over, explaining in a low voice: "Can Yu sister, they are the people from the advertisers we previously collaborated with."

This commotion naturally drew the attention of those people, their gazes shifted to Gu Ke Yu, but there was not a hint of fear on her face. She calmly placed the breakfast on the table.

Gu Ke'yu wasn't particularly tall. Facing this group of people, she was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. However, Gu Ke'yu had revived with full blood. She calmly asked, "I wonder what brings you to visit today Let's not waste each other's time. Just get straight to the point."

Looking at Gu Ke Yu's appearance, the leader smiled meaningfully, as if he didn't understand why Gu Ke Yu was so calm in this desperate situation.

He spoke calmly: "Miss Gu, we didn't want to come here in person. After all, everyone has their own things to keep busy with. However, your current image has been greatly affected, directly impacting the sales of our products. Your actions violate the contract and all products must be taken down. Therefore, you will be responsible for all compensation."

"Oh, by the way, I brought the contract with me. You can take a look at it. If you're worried about any surprises, you can call your lawyer over too."

He made perfect sense, without a hint of sarcasm. Gu Ke Yu listened, her heart undisturbed, after all, these were things she had thought about in advance.

She nodded. “Okay, all of this will be according to the contract. But there’s one thing I don’t understand… Why do you have so many people coming to my house It feels like a fight is about to break out. This just isn’t right on any level.”

Gu Ke's words were blunt, after all, she was in the right. No matter how she said it, she was justified. At worst, she would just pay the breach of contract penalty.

It seems the man hadn't expected Gu Ke to be so resolute. His face lost some color, and the gentle expression he had moments ago was gone.

"I don't care what your situation is We're here today to collect the breach of contract fee, and if you know what's good for you, you'll hand it over right now. If we get the money, we won't bother you anymore!" He grinned menacingly.

Xiao Tang lightly tugged at Gu Ke'yu's arm, she lowered her voice and cautiously said: "Don't be impulsive, let's talk it out properly."

But Gu Ke'yu didn't want to stay calm. There was a fire of anger in her heart. Truly, the kind were bullied, she had to act tough, or else these people would become even more arrogant.

"If I don't pay the penalty for breach of contract It seems like we could have talked things through properly, but you insisted on making this such a spectacle. If that's how it's going to be, then don't blame me for not cooperating!"

Her harsh words instantly turned the man's face ugly. He spoke directly: "Since this bitch is so disrespectful, let's give her a lesson. Smash it! Go!"

The men began smashing various items inside the house, with a series of shattering sounds. Gu Ke'yu frowned, and Tang Li Jia opened the door to look. A cup smashed at her feet, startling her.

Gu Ke Yu hurriedly pushed her inside, closed the door, and instructed: "The situation outside is very urgent. Just stay in here and don't come out. Don't come out to see anything that happens."

Little Tang watched helplessly as they smashed things, his heart pounding with anxiety. After all, every detail of this house had been painstakingly decorated by them.

She rushed up to stop them: "You can't smash things here, what you're doing is illegal. If I call the police, when the officers arrive, you'll all be in trouble!"

But her words had no effect. Some even sneered and said, "I advise you not to interfere with our business, or else you'll be dealt with too!"

Gu Ke'yu frowned, just about to step forward to argue, but he didn't know how Xiao Tang had angered this big guy. He directly pushed Xiao Tang onto the shards of broken glass. Xiao Tang's face twisted in pain instantly.

"Oh!"

Hearing Xiao Tang's cries, Gu Ke Yu rushed forward to check on Xiao Tang's injuries, "Xiao Tang, what's wrong with you"

Little Tang shrank her whole body, her face struggling, her expression particularly hesitant: "It's okay, don't worry, I can still hold on now. You should go and handle this situation as soon as possible."ard everything you just said! Every word, crystal clear!"Yang Gui Lan fiercely bit Qin Ming Dong, cursing angrily."You bastard! You're actually willing to let me die for this insurance payout All thes...
