Chapter 612: Chapter 612: There’s been an accident on the show!

His family’s residence used the mortise and tenon structure in many places; they had even specifically asked a descendant of the Lu Sect to help build it, since such structures require meticulous craftsmanship and design and cannot be handled carelessly.

However, this complex craft seemed to come naturally to this little girl, truly extraordinary.

Watching Zhao Lang bustling around beside Jiang Li, Gu Shengrong snorted coldly, "This boy follows this girl around; I hope he can really learn something useful from her and bring it back."

Zhou Xu, carefully observing Old Sir Gu’s expressions and tone, stretched his neck and ventured, "Actually... is it possible, I’m just hypothesizing here, that our boss went specifically for Jiang Li?"

"What do you mean?"

"The meaning is that the boss might, perhaps, probably have taken a fancy to her, Old Sir Gu, don’t you know? When he was trapped in Chixia Village, it was she who rescued him."

A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Shengrong’s eyes; then, he murmured contemplatively, "So that’s how it is..."

He hadn’t been interested in TV shows before and had left all of Gu Yu’s affairs to He Pingzhang to handle; he’d only heard He Pingzhang mention that Gu Yu had gotten into some trouble after appearing on a TV show and had nearly lost his life, and that a guest on the show had saved him.

But as for who it was, that boy always refrained from saying, even obstructed He Pingzhang from investigating; seeing this, he did not pursue it further and let the matter pass.

But was this girl really the one?

Seeing Old Sir Gu’s expression growing more solemn, Zhou Xu hurriedly gasped and gestured with his hands.

"Old Sir Gu, I was just wildly guessing; please don’t take it to heart. I mean, our boss is handsome and outstanding, above thousands, and naturally deserves the best girl..."

He had actually blurted it out impulsively in the heat of the moment!

To know, although Jiang Shen is impressive, the Jiang Family is just a small business family, and compared to the Gu Family, they are nothing.

This Old Sir Gu was even more rigid and serious, always valuing heritage; he would definitely not like if his future successor, even before formally discussing marriage, had already stirred up various scandals. If because of this Old Sir Gu started investigating Jiang Li, directly interfering in their free love, then he guessed he would be directly thrown into the Pacific Ocean to feed the sharks by the boss!

He could already picture that scene—

Old Sir Gu, wearing the family’s heirloom jade, directly throwing a stack of checks in front of Jiang Shen, his face cold, "This is one billion, stay away from my grandson! Otherwise, I’ll make the Jiang Family suffer!"

With Jiang Shen’s money-grubbing nature, he’d definitely take the checks and leave, leaving their boss desolately tormented.

And then, he’d be the unlucky one...

The more Zhou Xu thought, the more his scalp tingled. Just as he was about to try to mend things, he suddenly heard Old Sir Gu’s hearty laughter.

"So Gu Yu actually went for this girl; I wondered why he rushed back from overseas so eagerly, hahaha."

"Good for him, his taste isn’t bad; he hasn’t squandered the Gu Family’s genes."

Then his gaze sharpened on Zhou Xu, pinning him to the chair.

"Come, tell me in detail about the two of them."

Seeing Old Sir Gu’s eyes filled with gossip, Zhou Xu’s feelings shifted from nervousness to shock.

He, he, he, Old Sir Gu is not opposing it?!

That’s great!

Boss, you really owe him a big thank-you now!

He hasn’t even wooed them yet, but he’s already smoothed things over with their family for them!

...

Soon, someone in the livestream also recognized the structure of the house Jiang Li built.

[Wow, is she really using mortise and tenon joint structure? Is Jiang Li that awesome?]

[The moment I saw the design blueprint, I knew this girl was no ordinary person.]

[Speaking as a professional in design, Jiang Li’s blueprints are just as good as ours, if not even simpler.]

[Lili is so badass, truly proficient in all lines of work!]

[Hold on, didn’t you guys eat at the table during Shining Transformation Trip? Jiang Li was already impressive back then.]

For Jiang Li, mortise and tenon joint structure was indeed not a difficult task.

When she was in Daqi, she personally oversaw the renovation of her family’s ancestral home. It was during that time she met the heir of Lu Sect.

They hit it off right away, chatting about every topic under the sun. During these conversations, he introduced her to many architectural techniques.

In ancient times, there weren’t modern materials like cement, lime, or steel rebar. To ensure the durability of buildings, they could only rely on impeccable craftsmanship by hand.

Lu Sect specialized in craftsmanship, striving for perfection in the structures and tools they researched and designed. Faced with such exquisite skills, she of course devoted herself tirelessly to learning them.

Fortunately, she hadn’t completely forgotten these skills, and now she could still put them to use.

Before long, news of Jiang Li building a house on the island topped numerous trending searches.

The structure even received comments from architectural experts praising her solid skills. Someone even used a computer to recreate Jiang Li’s house one-to-one for a seismic test, and the results showed her house could withstand a level 5 earthquake! This sparked a series of heated debates online. freёwebnovel.com

And below the trending search about Jiang Li building a house was news of the merchant’s bankruptcy.

The shipwreck incident had already attracted significant attention due to Shang Shaobai’s manipulation. Following this, Shen Lan joined the fray by using her company’s PR resources to extensively release negative news about Shaojing, criticizing his recent foolish decisions that resulted in the current situation, pushing public opinion into another frenzy.

Watching Shang Group’s stock plummet, Shen Lan couldn’t have been happier sitting in her office.

Over the past few years, her family’s company, including Star Media which she managed, had suffered constant suppression by Shaojing. This time they could finally fight a stunning battle.

However, the real surprise came later.

After the meeting ended downstairs, He Wen came up with a laptop.

"Sis, sis, something’s happened, something’s happened."

Shen Lan swallowed her coffee and clicked her tongue, "What’s the matter with you, so happy about trouble?"

He Wen’s smile was irrepressible, "No sis, it’s not us in trouble, but Shang’s media company under them. Remember the rights to Shining Transformation Trip they bought before? Shaojing probably wanted to make Su Yinwan happy, so he got their company to film it. But you know what? They already had trouble during the first episode, with the guest and villagers arguing terribly, nearly coming to blows, but later, Chen’an smoothed it over."

"But just a few days ago, a landslide occurred in the mountain area they went to. The production team hadn’t done their homework, resulting in two guests being trapped, and one of them was the famous Actress Zhou. Can you believe what the production team did? They actually paid to suppress the news, and even thought about making Actress Zhou continue filming with injuries!"
