119. Snubbing
Su Mang had a rare sleep, and when she woke up, it was almost ten o'clock, she stepped on the carpet with her bare feet, looking at Gu Zi'an in the study, a little distracted.
The relationship between her and Gu Zi'an has ups and downs, what is it now? Su Mang was a little confused, it was originally a simple buying and selling relationship, but the more he got to the back, the more different it became.
She didn't know how to deal with Gu Zi'an's suggestion, whether it was the truth or a temptation, just like now, Gu Zi'an said that he was taking himself to review the old house.
You can't use her as a shield, right? Su Mang thought about it seriously, and finally sighed, forget it, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, this is the only thing she can do.
β¦β¦
The Gu family's old house is as deserted as ever, and New Year's Day has no special meaning for traditional Chinese people, after all, it is different from traditional Chinese New Year's Day. The environment of the Gu family's old house is very good, but it looks lifeless, no wonder Old Man Gu is always not in good health, living in this courtyard, it is strange that it can be good, no one is popular.
Su Mang secretly commented that when she passed by the small garden, she couldn't help but say more, "Mr. Gu, your gardener is so powerful." "Last time he was pulled by Gu Zi'an to attend the old man's birthday banquet, Su Mang wanted to say this.
The small garden is very beautifully maintained, some like scissorhands in the European and American movies, which can be described as a blue heart.
Gu Zi'an glanced at it, "I will convey your compliment to the old man." β
Su Mang was stunned and didn't react, "Just tell the gardener directly." In fact, she wants to find a gardener to learn a thing or two, this gardener of the Gu family not only has experience in the care of the small garden, but also has a good flower arrangement, in the small building next to the main building, the flower arrangement in the vase is scattered, which is very unique, and it is very temperamental to Su Mang.
Gu Zi'an smiled, Su Mang is usually quite smart, but now his brain has not turned a corner.
Also, when the old man was young, he learned garden art, and not many people knew about it, so it was not surprising that Su Mang didn't know.
Holding Su Mang's arm and entering, Gu Zi'an was in a good mood, even when he saw Bai Xiu, his expression was calm, and he nodded.
"Hello Miss Bai." The moment Su Mang saw Bai Xiu, he remembered the blind date between Bai Xiu and Gu Zi'an, and wanted to withdraw his arm, but to no avail.
"Coincidentally, the old man invited me to come, but I didn't expect to meet Su Mang, what are you busy with these days?" Bai Xiu saw Su Mang's small gesture and knew that Su Mang had misunderstood, but she didn't plan to explain.
The cooperation case with Gu Zi'an was not well discussed, and part of Cheng DΓΉ was that Gu Zi'an was in a dilemma, so she didn't mind letting Su Mang misunderstand and let Gu Zi'an suffer a little outside of work, especially emotionally.
"It's nothing, it's just a rush." Su Mang smiled, and took advantage of Gu Zi'an's time to take off his coat and withdraw his hand.
Old Man Gu came down after a while, Su Mang glanced at it, and felt that Old Man Gu looked at Bai Xiu quite a bit like his mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and became more satisfied.
Also, the door is right, the talented woman is good-looking, and Bai Xiu is also a little skillful, this is the Gu family's favorite granddaughter-in-law, didn't the old man Gu arrange a blind date between the two at the beginning?
Thinking that Gu Zi'an, who was invincible, even had a blind date, Su Mang's mood was inexplicably a little better.
"Laughing at what?" Bai Xiu was curious, except for being a little nervous when he saw Old Man Gu at the beginning, Su Mang seemed to be very accustomed to this environment.
"Nothing." Su Mang smiled, "The desserts here are really delicious, it's a pity that Miss Bai doesn't taste them." β
Bai Xiu shook his head, "I don't like to eat sweets." β
"Really?" Su Mang was slightly surprised, "You can tell Miss Bai that Mr. Gu likes sweets." β
Bai Xiu didn't expect Su Mang to take the initiative to tell her the news, but she was smart, and she knew it after thinking about it, "By the way, the commercial film you and Luo Yihang shot some time ago is going to be launched today." β
"Today?" Su Mang has not received the news, the advertisement is Qin Jing helping to stare at, that advertisement has been filmed for a few months, several advertisements shot at the same time have already been put on the market, but the one of the partial Bai family has not moved, if it wasn't for Bai Xiu who had already given the advertising endorsement fee, Su Mang really thought that the Bai family was going to cancel this advertisement.
But after deliberately delaying for so long, and choosing today, Su Mang didn't find out Bai Xiu's pulse for a while.
"There's never been a better time to talk about business." Bai Xiu smiled, it seems that Su Mang has been really busy with that drama during this time, no wonder Gu Zi'an's face is not very good-looking, it turned out that he was snubbed by Su Mang.
"You are a person in the circle, you may wish to pay more attention to the news in the circle, for example, the news of you and your senior brother."
Su Mang was stunned and reached out to get the phone, but as soon as his hand touched the bag, he retracted again.
"The news in the entertainment industry is true or false, it can't be true, when will Miss Bai see these news in her eyes?"
Now that he reacted quickly, Bai Xiu stood up, "I said, I am a businessman, and in business, it is natural to seek the maximum benefit at the minimum cost, after all, the endorsement fee is worth a lot of money, and I always have to return to the original cost." β
The Gu family's maid had already set up the dining table, Su Mang went to the restaurant with Bai Xiu, she was still hesitating where to sit, but Gu Zi'an came down from upstairs.
Su Mang was stunned, and finally sat opposite Gu Zi'an, opposite Bai Xiu was empty, and Shen Dongting was not there.
After not seeing the old man Gu for a while, Su Mang felt that the old man's face seemed to be much better than before, and after she came, she just said hello to the old man, of course, if it was possible, Su Mang could do it without saying a word.
"Listen to Xiao An, you like gardening."
Old Man Gu suddenly spoke, and Su Mang was reminded by Bai Xiu, only then did he realize that the old man was asking her.
"Kind of interested." Su Mang cherishes words like gold, she doesn't know how to deal with the old man's problem.
"What do you think of that vase of flowers?" The old man pointed to it, and there was a plum bottle on the sandalwood shelf in the corner of the restaurant, in which a few plum blossoms were staggered, and in the middle was a bamboo stick.
"The three friends of the cold year are quite a bit of a show." Su Mang looked at it for a long time before he said this.
"Even if you still have vision and want to learn, just stay here for a few days." Old Man Gu suddenly startled Su Mang with a sentence and stayed in the Gu family's old house?
The old man is not old and confused, why did he suddenly say this, the meaning behind this statement, that is it......
"It's not promising." The old man glared at Su Mang, and it was a shame that Xiao An was still saying good things about Su Mang in front of him, but in the end, he owed some polishing, and he had to clean up well before he could meet someone.
"Old man, you are very kind, I, I am very grateful, but your hospitality, I'm afraid I can't receive it." Su Mang came back to his senses, but his mind was very clear.
Old Man Gu didn't expect that the grandson here would say good things, but Su Mang didn't appreciate it, and glared at Gu Zi'an, "What, do you think it's boring to accompany me, an old man?" β
"Old man, you misunderstood, it's just that I've been rehearsing a drama recently, and I've been catching up with the progress in the theater, hoping to be able to move it to the stage as soon as possible."
Director Tang has preliminarily drawn up the performance arrangement, and the performance of "Thunderstorm" is scheduled after the New Year's Day holiday, which means that in two days, Su Mang will appear on the stage of the theater for the first drama performance in his life.
The current performance is to prepare for the current imperial capital, if the effect is good, I am afraid that it will have to run the whole country.
Therefore, even if it was a request made by Old Man Gu, Su Mang had to refuse.
Compared with the recognition of Old Man Gu, Su Mang cares more about this drama performance. It's her choice at the moment.
Gu Zi'an was silent, looking at Su Mang's eyes with a little inexplicability.
However, Bai Xiu admired Su Mang's courage very much, you must know that there are not many people who can refuse Old Man Gu, and has Su Mang thought clearly about Old Man Gu's words?
This is the best opportunity to become the granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family, just let go of the opportunity and let it slip away, and Su Mang will not cry to death when he turns around?
"Drama? Do you also act in dramas? Old Man Gu looked incredulous.
Su Mang didn't care, it wasn't a day or two that Old Man Gu looked down on her, even when she first joined the crew, didn't those seniors look down on her? At this time, it is useless to be angry, and it is most useful to show strength to be recognized by others.
"Well, does the old man like to watch it? Mr. Cao Yu's "Thunderstorm", I can find a way to get you a few tickets. β
Old Man Gu was stunned, "No, I don't like to be noisy." White girl, what have you been busy with lately, your grandfather said that he couldn't see you all day. β
was deliberately snubbed by Old Man Gu, Su Mang didn't care, but was relieved, the drama performance tickets are not hard to find, not to mention what Old Man Gu's identity and status, where is the need to ask her for a whole ticket, she was careless just now.
Bai Xiu said with a smile: "I'm busy talking about business with Mr. Gu, Grandpa Gu, you have to help me, Mr. Gu always looks down on my cooperation case." β
Bai Xiu saw the stitches, the reason why she came to eat this meal was to cooperate with Gu Zi'an, and of course she had to say it if she had the opportunity.
The old man frowned when he heard this, "I handed over this development case to Dongting to handle, you were deceived by Xiao An." β
Hearing this, Bai Xiu was stunned for three seconds, "Mr. Shen? "That is a cooperation case involving hundreds of millions of yuan, and it was handed over to Shen Dongting to handle it, is this Gu Zi'an's fall from grace, or Shen Dongting's success?
Bai Xiu pondered for a while, and then said, "You can't look at me as a girl, let me be a little." He laughed and hated when he said this, but when he got to Gu Zi'an, he was beaten back by the same way.
Su Mang watched coldly, feeling that Bai Xiu was really a character. This reminded her of the sentence, not afraid that the other party is a rich second generation, but afraid that the other party is a rich second generation who is more motivated than you.
When you meet such an opponent, you really don't know how to die.
Su Mang's meal was not very comfortable, and finally lunch was over, but Shen Dongting came back at this juncture.
