15. Chapter 15: Adjustment/Teaching
Because there are too many people who want to greet Director Luo, most of them are still in the hall after the opening ceremony, and it is clear that it is time for lunch, but they don't mention this stubble like selective amnesia.
Yang Qinglan, who was full of topics, didn't want to chat with those people, and after symbolically greeting some people, she took her assistant to sit on the sofa in the corner and eat snacks, carefully observing the demeanor and movements of everyone in the venue.
Of course, the main objects of observation are Qing Mengli and the eldest grandson Chengying.
Even among a group of well-known actors dressed in bright clothes, the eldest grandson Cheng Ying is the most eye-catching, attracting the attention of many female creatures, and in just ten minutes, four girls took the initiative to get his attention, but none of them succeeded.
Sneering at him, Yang Qinglan focused her attention on Qing Mengli.
The progress bar on the heroine's head is no longer 0% at the moment, but has jumped to 18% at some point.
When Yang Qinglan and Director Luo walked into the hall together, they noticed the change in the progress bar on Qing Mengli's head, and the value on it was still 16% at that time.
She thought it was strange that she hadn't done anything, so why had she made progress in just an hour or two of kung fu tasks? Could it be that someone said something in her ear during this time?
So when the two looked at each other, she decided to go over and test it.
After some words, Yang Qinglan looked at Qing Mengli's pale face with satisfaction, and at the same time, she was even more confused by the fact that she was obviously bluffed by herself, but the progress bar jumped up by 2%.
Could it be that Cheng Qing Mengli is a white lotus on the surface, but it is actually a shaking M?
The observation after that made Yang Qinglan feel even more as if things were developing in an unpredictable direction.
Two months ago, the White Lotus, who was hiding behind the eldest grandson Cheng Ying, seemed much more independent on this occasion than the last time, and it seemed as if she wanted to stay away from him, sometimes the two looked at each other, she would send a smile that was still sunny, but once the eldest grandson Cheng Ying didn't look at her, the expression on her face was gloomy and terrible.
Staring at it with interest for a long time, Yang Qinglan poked the assistant beside him.
"You go and call Qing Mengli over, just say that I will invite her to dinner at noon, pay attention to emphasis, and only invite her."
The assistant answered "yes" and got up and walked over there.
Faced with the sudden invitation to lunch, Qing Mengli seemed a little at a loss, but after a few seconds of thinking, she agreed, and followed the assistant without telling the eldest grandson Chengying.
Seeing her coming, Yang Qinglan sat on the sofa and didn't mean to get up, and looked at her with a strange smile on her face: "It's a very dangerous thing to go out to eat with me, don't you tell your flower messenger?" ”
Qing Mengli's breathing was obviously chaotic, but her expression was quite calm: "It's just a meal, and he's not one of mine, so there's no need to report to him." ”
Hey? If you follow the progress of the original book, this time is the stage when Qing Mengli has a good impression of her eldest grandson Cheng Ying, but now it seems that she has a disgust. Doesn't seem like she did anything?
So Yang Qinglan's heart was suddenly filled with curiosity, and she patted the cookie residue on her hand and stood up: "Let's go with me to change clothes first, if you dress like you, that store probably won't dare to accept it." ”
Qing Mengli glanced down at the low-cut dress on her body that was prepared by the eldest grandson Chengying, and the clothes that she thought were beautiful just now looked particularly eye-catching.
"But I didn't bring a change of clothes...... "The clothes before changing into a small dress were still in the car of the eldest grandson Chengying, but she didn't want to go to him now.
Yang Qinglan didn't speak, and walked towards the gate by herself, and the assistant on the side explained coldly: "Miss's nanny car has clothes on it, and they are all new. ”
Qing Mengli stopped talking, bowed her head and walked out of the hall behind the two.
After stepping out of the door, she glanced back and found that the eldest grandson Chengying was talking to Director Luo, but she didn't notice that she was no longer there, and the last bit of expectation in her heart disappeared, and she trotted to catch up with the person in front of her with her skirt and high heels.
Qiu Xuyao went out with two nanny cars the size of an RV, one is her exclusive changing room, and the other is a dressing room, all of which are very tall and tall under the personal arrangement of top designer Luo Yuanyuan, Qing Mengli stayed as soon as she entered.
She is now a second-tier star, although she has not yet gained a firm foothold, her value is not low, but not to mention all the clothes in this car, it is estimated that just a few sets of clothes can top all the income she has earned since she entered the entertainment industry.
Yang Qinglan pushed her behind her lightly and heavily.
"What are you doing blocking the door, can't you pick out what you like?"
She hurriedly turned sideways to let the master go in first, and then saw "Qiu Xuyao" take out a suit from a row of hangers and gestured: "You are a little shorter than me, but wearing high heels is not much worse, this set should be okay, try it on." After saying that, he threw the suit to the assistant and went to pick out other clothes himself.
With the help of her assistant to change into that set of clothes, Qing Mengli felt a little constrained.
She accidentally glanced at the label on the side of the dress just now, and found that this set of clothes was a handmade custom suit from an internationally renowned design studio, and that studio was only heard about after she contacted the eldest grandson Chengying, and the level was as high as the clouds.
If such clothes are accidentally soiled or torn on herself, how will she pay for them?!
After she changed her clothes, Qiu Xuyao also changed into a new set of clothes, and the two then went to the makeup nanny car and brushed their faces again, and then got into the car to the place to eat.
Qing Mengli picked up the handbag that was thrown aside, took out her mobile phone and saw that there were twelve more missed calls and 8 messages on it, all of which were from the eldest grandson Chengying.
The first three of the eight messages asked her where she went, and the last five asked her why she went out with Qiu Xuyao, where to go and what to do, and if she needed his help.
These 8 messages made her feel a little irritated for no reason, and she was about to shut down the phone, and a new message came in.
[I'll keep you safe with satellite tracking, and I'll be able to catch up with you in ten minutes.] 】
Qing Mengli's hand trembled, and the phone fell on the carpet in the car.
This feeling of being exposed to an outsider's eyes was so bad that it gave her a sense of fear and shame of being stripped naked and hung on the street.
She completely ignored the idea that the eldest grandson Chengying wanted to protect her, and all that swirled in her mind was "A small character like me is just a grasshopper jumping in the hands of these people, what else can I do besides being at the mercy of others and slaughtered by others?" ”
Yang Qinglan, who was sitting opposite her, saw that her phone was dropped and didn't pick it up, so she bent down to help her pick it up, and at a casual glance, she saw the text message interface that had not been closed, and immediately raised her eyebrows.
Satellite tracking?
That guy really likes to play big, but who's afraid of whom?
So she shook the text message in front of the assistant's eyes, and after successfully harvesting a pair of angry eyes, she stuffed the phone back into Qing Mengli's hand.
"I'm sorry to see your text message, but it's better for you to hide this kind of important information, and it will hurt him if I see it."
Qing Mengli trembled again, her eyes looked at "Qiu Xuyao" with distracted eyes, and suddenly recalled what she said an hour ago in her mind-
"I admit that my previous methods were a little inferior, and the results did not go as I wanted, so I plan to change my approach and use this movie to teach you the philosophy of survival at our level, if you are smart enough, please learn hard."
Suddenly she realized.
Qiu Xuyao's previous actions were not aimed at her, because she was not that important at all, but because she jumped into these people's chessboard without her own strength, she kept getting into trouble, and later she simply became a chess piece in their hands, and she was still not very useful.
Does the eldest grandson Cheng Ying really like her?
There may be a bit of sincerity or two in this, but she believes that his ultimate goal is definitely not to include her as a person.
Qiu Xuyao He can't even look down on her, which green onion is she Qingmengli?
Qing Mengli stared at "Qiu Xuyao" for more than ten seconds in a daze, and the cold hairs behind Yang Qinglan stood up, but she had to make a cold expression of raising her eyebrows, and looked back at it with a cool and domineering tug, and her inner torment can be imagined.
Then, Qing Mengli slumped, slipped off the leather chair, and knelt in front of "Qiu Xuyao".
"I ...... Knowing that I am soft-spoken, there is nothing worth taking advantage of you, and I caused you to jump off the building and be hospitalized...... I...... Please help me take it out, I've learned, really, and I'll never appear in front of you again, okay? ”
The coldness on Yang Qinglan's face, which was so hard to maintain, finally turned into consternation, and even her mouth couldn't close because of excessive surprise.
The progress bar above Qing Mengli's head, which had stopped at 18% just now, soared to 100%, lighting up with a festive red light.
“……”
the !!!
Is she hallucinating? It's an illusion, right?!
She obviously didn't do anything, what the hell is going on??!!
What did you make up in your brain, girl, to make me as kind to me as suddenly mutated? I haven't had time to shake the tiger's body and open up the king's overlord's breath! Isn't it useless for you to mess with my backhand left in the United States???
The two sides were deadlocked for three seconds, and Yang Qinglan first came back to her senses, coughed lightly and changed her sitting posture to make herself appear to be in control.
"That's not going to work." She said.
Qing Mengli's eyes showed a bit of despair, and she looked pitiful when she was paralyzed on the ground.
The corners of Yang Qinglan's mouth twitched.
Sure enough, it's the heroine.,The protagonist's aura is not ordinarily powerful.,Even I, the big villain, can't help but feel pity when I see her like this.,Wouldn't it be more lethal to those men who already had a good impression of her?
So she made a frowning expression: "Don't show your vulnerable side to the enemy, or do you think I will sympathize with you?" ”
“……”
"You said you learned, but all I saw was that you wanted to escape, but did you think about it, can people who have lived in this circle really go back to their old lives?"
Qing Mengli subconsciously touched the carpet under her and did not speak.
Yes, the drunken life of this circle is the fundamental reason why she stays regardless of Yiqiē, even the carpet in the car is so soft, more comfortable than her previous bed.
Then, she heard a very seductive/bewildering voice, as if coming from the far side of the sky—
"Follow me, I'll let you really become a member of this circle, no longer held hostage by them, okay?"
In a trance, Qing Mengli heard her voice and replied firmly: "Okay!" ”
200%
Yang Qinglan: "......"
Hey?
Hello hey, hey????!!!!!!
