14 Min Gui
Lu Jinhai was investigating the attempted murder of Mo Chou. Since it was the weekend, he didn't have to attend university and he wouldn't attend anyways as Mo Chou was still in the hospital.
Lu Jinhai was in his office when Min Gui came bounding excitedly. Since Lu Jinhai didn't surf the internet he didn't know that he had become famous.
"Brother Lu, Did you know that you are currently trending?" said Min Gui. "And who is the girl who acted with you in the video? You looked so concerned for her even though you were just acting that I almost believed it was real".
"I have never seen you so panicked before, your acting was simply top class .Ha, I can't think of the expressions that others will make if they knew that the fierce and ruthless young master Lu is trending. But how will they find out if they have never seen your face hahaha"
Min Gui was talking non stop while Lu Jinhai was confused. He didn't know what he was talking about but he understood when Min Gui showed him the video.
Turns out someone had uploaded the video of that day. "She is your future sister in law," Lu Jinhai simply stated.
Min Gui was dumbfounded.
Lu Jinhai started reading the comments and was pleased that people were shipping him and Mo Chou together. He started liking the comments which shipped them and praised Mo Chou but when he saw the hate comments, he became irritated and instructed Min Gui to sue all of them.
Min Gui was an easygoing person and someone who just went with the flow. He quickly accepted that he was going to have a sister in law even though he could never imagine Lu Jinhai in love.
But he knew that once Lu Jinhai committed to something, he would fullfill it to the end.
He knew that he would benefit in the future if he managed to please his future sister in law, so he hurriedly did as Lu Jinhai ordered.

Mo Li was scrolling on weibo looking at the latest trends. She saw that the top trending video was a drama from a competition in Capital University.
Liu Dai had informed her that her daughter had resumed her studies and was attending the same university so she was interested.
She clicked on the video and saw that it had an astronomical amount of likes and comments.
Mo Li started watching it and was astounded when she saw that her daughter who was dressed as a boy was the main character.
She could easily recognize her daughter who she had pampered and spoiled since she was a child.
Mo Li hurriedly called Liu Qiang who was making breakfast "Honey come here quick, our daughter acted in a drama. Lets watch it together. I wonder why our children didn't tell me about it" she pouted.
Liu Qiang being the henpecked husband he was, hurriedly replied '' Just wait until we get home, I'll definitely scold Liu Dai". They started watching it together.
As they kept watching they grew more and more surprised." I didn't know our daughter was so talented in acting. I wonder if she will join the entertainment industry and the boy acting with her also did a good job, especially in the last scene. I almost cried"
Liu Qiang was listening to his wife but his attention was on the video. He rewinded the last scene and watched it once more and his expression turned grave.
"What is it dear?" questioned Mo Li. "That's a real gun. Our daughter was injured," replied Liu Qiang."What! Are you sure?" questioned Mo Li ."Yes, I'm sure that's a real gun shot" replied Liu Qiang.
Liu Qiang was the protagonist's father after all and although he didn't dabble in underground business, he could still distinguish between a real and fake gun shot.
The video wasn't really edited either.
Mo Li panicked and hurriedly started packing. Since the situation was grave, Liu Qiang also helped her pack while booking the earliest flight as they hadn't taken their private jet.

Mo Chou was bored inside her hospital room. Liu Dai had brought her Laptop and phone so she spent the day playing games but she was getting sick of it.
She was fiddling with her laptop when she came upon the video of the drama she acted in.
She saw that it was trending on top. She started reading the comments and was amused seeing the comments shipping her with Lu Jinhai.
She also noticed the comments talking about the end scene and how Lu Jinhai looked devastated so she rewinded the scene and watched it once again. She found that he really did look pained when he saw her getting shot.
Her heart skipped a beat when she saw his expression.
Mo Chou then noticed the hate comments. They were absurd and only targeting her.
The accounts which posted these comments were anonymous so she decided to see who was behind them.
She hacked the accounts and found that all the accounts belonged to the same person. She was not really surprised seeing the person's name.
Liu Dai visited Mo Chou in the evening to bring her some food as she had told him that she was bored of hospital food.
He had the maids cook up a healthy but tasty meal.
Mo Chou asked him about the progress of the investigation. Liu Dai informed her that there was not much progress as the CCTV footage seemed to have been deleted and the gun didn't have any registration.
He told her that although they had appointed a renowned hacker to retrieve the footage, it seemed to be of no use as the person behind the disappearance seemed to have an even more powerful hacker stopping them.
