Chapter 129.4: The Scholar Ghost (4)
In the beginning, Ye Sui was incarnated as a simple mermaid. Her eyes were pure, and her movements were casual, but they were very alluring.
After that, Ye Sui put on her coat and tied her long hair with the gauze. Her expression changed to calm and cold, and her pure eyes were no more. She transformed into a strong and brave image.
Next, Ye Sui walked into the sun from the darkness of night. The sun was shining, but her eyes were brighter than the sun, unwavering and resolute.
When the advertisement was over, everyone’s first reaction was how did it end so quickly? They wanted to watch more.
Especially when the gauze covered Ye Sui’s face, her hazy beauty was too alluring. Everyone wanted this scene to be longer and longer.
Although this was just a commercial with a Nirvana theme, they seemed to have watched a short and profound movie.
Ye Sui waged through the hatred before gradually changing everyone’s image of her. After that, she won the film queen award, but another fatal hidden marriage affair broke out. She fell to the bottom in a single night.
Ye Sui was still so young, but her career had its ups and downs. She always faced difficulties. Despite experiencing storms after storms, her resolution remained as firm as ever.
There was no depression and discouragement. Other people’s ridicule, satire, and questioning would become the driving force for Ye Sui to move forward.
This was Nirvana. This was the meaning of Ye Sui’s ad.
The comments flooded the advertisement post like a tide.
“Damn, I was crying while watching the advertisement. I suddenly feel that Ye Sui is so pitiful. She didn’t do anything, but she was hated like this.”
“Although I still don’t like Ye Sui, I have to admit that she really fits this advertisement. I will buy this champagne rose!”
“Product is product, people are people. I will buy champagne roses, but I will still observe Ye Sui. I won’t be sincerely supporting her for the time being.”
The Gaoshe Garden’s gamble to keep Ye Sui as the spokesperson was not a mistake. After the Nirvana advertisement was released, the sales of champagne roses soared.
The sales suddenly doubled several times and made up for the previous decline. It seemed that it was not impossible for the sales of champagne roses to catch up with red roses.
Ye Sui’s reputation had also improved a bit. A strange situation had formed now.
Although some people still had a prejudice against her and that they didn’t like her, they still bought what Ye Sui endorsed.
Ye Sui’s endorsement had not been significantly affected, but the public’s impression of her still had a big gap like before.
Although the road for Ye Sui to change her public opinion was difficult, as long as she kept walking, she would definitely see the light.
Ye Sui and Chen Shu decided to visit Chen Shi today. Chen Shi had canceled the Chen family gathering for them. However, the hidden marriage had been exposed, so they did not need to cover up anything.
The black car stopped at the gate of the Chen family’s house, then Chen Shu and Ye Sui got out of the car. The two went to see Chen Shi. When he saw them, he smiled. “You are here.”
After chatting for a while, Chen Shi remembered the discussion about Ye Sui on the Internet. He said, “If the entertainment circle is too difficult to get around, there is no need to fight like this.”
The netizens were currently scolding Ye Sui. If she couldn’t stand it, even if she quit the entertainment circle, they could still live well with Chen Shu’s ability.
Chen Shu and Ye Sui looked at each other. They knew that Chen Shi was thinking about them, but…
Ye Sui said, “Even if the road is difficult, if I don’t try it, how can I know that I won’t succeed?”
Chen Shu smiled. His tone was indifferent as he said, “We should all have this confidence.” He would let her do anything unscrupulously. He believed in her, supported her, and would always be her backing.
Chen Shi expressed his understanding and stopped mentioning it.
When Chen Shu and Ye Sui were about to leave, they walked across a long corridor. Ye Sui looked around inadvertently and paused.
She saw a scholar ghost around the corner. He was standing there, looking at Chen Shu with awe in his eyes.
Ye Sui suddenly recalled that when she came to the Chen family’s house back then, Steward Zhao had a terrible attitude towards Chen Shu.
The scholar ghost blamed Steward Zhao and said that with Chen Shu’s status, how dare he be disrespectful to him? In his era, Steward Zhao would have committed a capital offense.
Ye Sui didn’t think there was anything odd back then, but now thinking about it carefully, there was something wrong.
Why did the scholar ghost say that Steward Zhao’s disrespect for Chen Shu was a capital offense? Why was the scholar ghost so in awe of Chen Shu? Was it really because Chen Shu’s Yang aura was so heavy?
It all seemed weird, but it was headed in a clear direction.
At this time, Ye Sui saw the scholar ghost kneeling on the ground. He bowed in the direction of Chen Shu a few times. His attitude was respectful, and it was a long time before he straightened up.
Ye Sui’s heart shuddered. This was the second time she saw a ghost bowing to Chen Shu. The minister ghost in the Xia Zhou Palace Museum was the first, and the scholar ghost was the second.
Ye Sui then thought of the sword that never rusted, and her expression became more solemn.
Was Chen Shu’s identity really what she thought of?
Chen Shu noticed that Ye Sui had been staring at the corner. He glanced over but saw nothing. He knew there was something wrong, so he asked, “Did you see ghosts again?”
Ye Sui nodded. She looked at Chen Shu with a complicated expression and said softly, “Wait for me.”
She wanted to ask the scholar ghost to see if he knew anything.
Chen Shu agreed.
The scholar ghost was still kneeling on the ground, unaware that Ye Sui was approaching him. She walked towards the scholar ghost as she pondered in her mind.
She already had a faint conjecture about their previous lives. However, she did not have enough evidence to prove it.
Ye Sui felt cold in her heart. The blurry palace appeared in her mind again as well as the cold general sword.
Also, was he the person with a noble status in her dream with his back facing her?
Ye Sui kept walking. She was eager to know if this was just a dream or a fate that had long been destined.
