Gossip King - Chapter 1166
Chapter 1166 Ostrich Sand
After bringing Mu Xiaoleng home, he faced court the next day. Mu Zhengtang did not have any further appeals and obeyed the organization’s ruling. It was already very late after Gaoleng finished the meeting for the lawyers.
Mu Xiaoleng did not sleep all night, afraid that Gaoleng would worry, so she pretended to sleep all night.
As for Gaoleng, he had not slept all night. He had been writing something in front of his laptop. He had even got up several times and went to the bathroom to close the door to make several phone calls, afraid that it would disturb Mu Xiaoleng, who was’asleep ‘.
Mu Xiaoleng watched Gaoleng’s busy back and secretly wet his eyes. He bit his lips tightly and controlled his crying without making a sound.
“Mu Zhengtang, the former secretary of the Su Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission, today’s trial …” The news was broadcast at 12 noon, 7:30 p.m., 8:00 p.m., 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. on a rolling basis throughout the day.
Another corrupt official fell from his horse.
Mu Zhengtang was sentenced to 15 years and his wife to 5 years, just like the inside information that Gaoleng had gotten. What Gaoleng didn’t expect was that Mu Xiaoleng would have the first conflict with him in the morning when he was preparing to go to court.
“Why don’t you let me follow you?” Gaoleng looked at the time. It was almost eight o’clock since the stalemate in the morning. He was slightly angry.
“It will affect you. You can’t go to so many media outlets.” Mu Xiaoleng shook his head and clutched the quilt tightly.
“I care about all of this. How can I be at ease when you face so many media alone?” Seeing that Mu Gaoleng was angry and didn’t take a step back, Xiaoleng let out a soft breath, “Good boy, I’ll follow you on this occasion. If anything happens, someone will give you an idea.”
“Nothing’s going to happen. My dad won’t appeal, and you’ve already found out what questions you can ask.”
Mu Xiaoleng did not allow Gaoleng to accompany him to the courtroom. Mu Xiaoleng, who had always been docile, showed an extremely rare toughness this time. No matter if Gaoleng was angry or coaxed, she did not agree to accompany Gaoleng.
Gaoleng knew what Mu Xiaoleng was afraid of.
Mu Zhengtang was sentenced, and at least several hundred media outlets were waiting outside the courtroom.
“You are a reporter of the rotten meat case, and you were selected to be touched by Empire. Once the media reported, what would they … think of you?” Although Mu Xiaoleng covered his face weakly and cried, he was unusually determined not to move a single step forward.
“I told you, I don’t care.” “Besides, your father’s rank is high enough that the domestic media won’t dig up this gossip, and the state will allow it.”
That’s true. With such a high official rank, if the domestic media were to dig up the privacy of a girl and not talk about it, there would be very strict control over reports with’political ‘identities in the country. You can’t even report it even if you want to.
“Foreign media, foreign media will report. There were also so many anchors broadcasting live. These live broadcasters were just for the sake of making money. There were so many vegetarian live broadcasters. They were gossiping nonsense on the air, but many of them were fans. Just like when Baby Wang’s wife cheated on her, the multimedia was waiting at the airport. There were also a large crowd of onlookers. Those who didn’t know thought that ordinary people really ran so far to the airport to stop his wife from venting. In fact, they were all people who made money by playing live broadcasts. Mu Xiaoleng shook his head.
Gaoleng immediately realized something. It was impossible for Mu Xiaoleng to know so much. Although she was smart, she didn’t see the problem so thoroughly. Someone must have said something to her.
She was right. Take Baby Wang’s wife’s cheating as an example. It was a sensation. A hundred media outlets were waiting for his wife to appear at the airport. At the same time, nearly a thousand onlookers were also waiting there. The entire exit of the airport was surrounded by a flood and even made headlines.
The headline commented that the public was paying close attention to the matter, and that the crowd was extremely enthusiastic and spontaneous.
Come on, who has nothing to do when you’re full and runs to the airport in the imperial capital to help you vent your anger? It was easy for people to chat while eating melon seeds. It was impossible for them to stay there in the middle of the night in the dark.
Then how did so many people get here?
Whether it was the airport or the first time he went to the court to exchange evidence, it was a fact that every time he was a bystander in a sea of people.
This wasn’t because Baby Wang’s popularity was so high. There was a big reason for that: most of the onlookers, except those who happened to be passing by, were anchors of the live broadcast platform, and they earned money from the gifts given by their fans through live broadcasts.
Of course, he would keep watch if he had money to earn.
Although the domestic media would not dig deeper into Mu Zhengtang’s daughter’s boyfriend, they only wanted to take photos of Mu Zhengtang entering the court. However, those anchors who played live were different. They were purely for money. As soon as Mu Xiaoleng appeared, their cameras would be aimed at her. They held their phones and said nonsense to Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Pa Once Gaoleng entered the camera, he would say even more.
“They will say that you are successful because you are the son-in-law of a corrupt official, will randomly question the amount of money you have won the Tao Fen Award, and will even dig out stories about the privacy of those celebrities you took in the past to damage you. This way, there would be a lot of fans watching them, and fans would also feel that the anchor was particularly righteous, especially righteous, and would receive a lot of rewards. “It’s like Baby Wang’s divorce,” Mu Xiaoleng said in a clear and orderly manner.
This was not something she could think of. Someone must have taught her behind her back.
Who?
Gaoleng frowned slightly.
“Please.” Mu Xiaoleng stretched out his hand and tugged at Gaoleng’s clothes. He raised his head and looked at him. Just as his eyes touched Gaoleng’s, tears began to flow down his cheeks. “Even if you don’t care about this, I do.” “Although I really want you to be by my side when I’m fragile, I don’t want you to be by my side when my father is sentenced. That way, I will feel that I’m not worthy of you. It was an ugly moment for my family, and I don’t want you to see it.”
Gaoleng felt sour in his heart. He knew that the previous words must have been told to Mu Xiaoleng by someone else, but these words were from her heart. He extended his hand to hug Mu Xiaoleng, but Mu Xiaoleng retreated.
“I’m sorry.” She lowered her head as if she didn’t dare to look at Gaoleng. “Although I know my identity will affect your career, Although I know that I’m not worthy of you now, I can’t leave you at all. I really can’t leave you. Please, let me go to court alone. Let me face my father’s unbearable things alone. I don’t want you to see the scene of my father being sentenced and the appearance of me at that moment. I wish I had stayed in your memory pure and smiling. In this way, I am still so kind and pure in my Brother Gao Leng’s eyes. ”
It seemed that as long as Gaoleng did not see the scene of Mu Zhengtang being sentenced and the ugly scene of Mu Zhengtang being sentenced by justice, this scene would not happen.
It was as if Gaoleng had not witnessed it, so Mu Xiaoleng was still the same Mu Xiaoleng.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoleng is like an ostrich with its head buried in the sand. We all say how stupid an ostrich is to flee for its life. It is so stupid that it stuffs its head under the sand and thinks that it can avoid attacks. But we are not ostriches, so how can we know what an ostrich will think?
Perhaps the ostrich clearly knew that it would die, but its head was buried under the sand, and it didn’t die so scared.
Children are not fish, how do you know the joy of fish.
If a child is not a fish, how can he know the bitterness of a fish?
Mu Xiaoleng needed this layer of sand, just like a person needed a layer of shameful cloth. She didn’t want Gaoleng to see herself in a sorry state and her family in a filthy state.
She knew that this was a disgrace.
“I have to go. It’s too late.” Old Diao walked in and urged.
“Who told you not to let me accompany you?” Gaoleng asked with a serious expression, “Who told you about Baby Wang’s case, the anchor’s live broadcast, and who influenced you behind the scenes.”
