Chapter 18: A Conspiracy Brews in the Shadows
"Where are you? I'm coming to you. Su Gelin quickly pressed the keyboard and typed out such a sentence.
After exchanging contact information with Zhang Jingming, she got up and walked out.
"Cousin, where are you going?" Xie Tingting asked.
"I'm going to find Zhang Jingming, I guess he may have Huang Ruirui's handle in his hand." After taking a look in front of the plastic surgery mirror at the door, Su Gelin carefully touched up her lip gloss again before pulling the door out.
Xie Tingting was so angry that she slammed the bed hard, her focus was not on Huang Ruirui at all now, she just wanted to find Cheng Jiade and give her an explanation and explanation.
Wang Qiuling happened to come back from grocery shopping, and saw that she was losing her temper and beating the bed, so she hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her: "Tingting, is the wound painful, don't lose your temper." ”
This unprincipled and accommodating appearance in a low voice made Xie Tingting's heart move: "Mom, I haven't seen my sister for a long time, why don't you call and ask my sister to come and see me again." ”
She regretted it a little, she shouldn't have spoken so harshly to Huang Ruirui at the beginning, otherwise she twisted Huang Ruirui to talk for a while, Huang Ruirui had a knife mouth and a tofu heart, maybe, for the sake of her crying sadly, she would still find Cheng Jiade.
"Huh?" Wang Qiuling was surprised when she heard this.
"What's wrong? Mom, with this expression of yours, are you afraid that Dad will find out? Xie Tingting shook her hand coquettishly.
Wang Qiuling was quite embarrassed, blew her hair, and then whispered: "No, Tingting, listen to me, we are all mistaken, Huang Ruirui is not my daughter at all, nor is it your sister......"
"Huh?" This time, Xie Tingting was surprised.
"Tingting, it's true, even DNA has been tested, there's nothing wrong, let's not mention her, she is not our family at all, we are still a family of three to live a good life." Wang Qiuling said repeatedly.
In the past, she didn't want to recognize Huang Ruirui, but the so-called "mother" was the word, and she still went to see Huang Ruirui once to apologize, but she didn't expect that she would move around so often later.
"Mom, it's not the same now, we can't live any more small lives." Xie Tingting angrily replied to Wang Qiuling.
Her path is just open, how can she say that she will break it.
Cheeky, she dialed Huang Ruirui's phone, hoping to use some bitter tricks again to deceive Huang Ruirui's soft-heartedness.
In the end, she hung up the phone helplessly, and Huang Ruirui had already blocked her number.
Su Gelin found Zhang Jingming in the entertainment city of the neighboring city.
The handsome guy I used to see in the magazine is now a little decadent, and he has a little bit of a little white face.
did run outside, and he had no other means of making a living, so he had to make a living by singing in the entertainment city, and then, he was favored by a local noble lady and became a little lover behind his back.
"Unexpectedly, the famous Che Zhenshuang is actually a big beauty." After seeing someone, Zhang Jingming greeted him with a smile, with a slight touch on his lips.
Su Gelin just stroked her long wavy hair lightly, and looked at him with a little charm: "I have always regarded you as my idol." ”
"Really?" Zhang Jingming was still a little fluttering when he heard this, he was still a little famous at the beginning, but he had never been popular.
"Really, so when I first knew that you and Huang Ruirui were shocked, I was very sad, and I blamed that shameless woman for ruining your good future." Su Gelin followed the energetic performance.
She really hates Huang Ruirui, and since the "bracelet incident" when she was at school at the beginning, she and Huang Ruirui's Mao Dun have risen to the point of irreconcilability.
As Huang Ruirui rose higher and higher, she became more and more jealous.
Although she is not having a bad life now, and there are also financial owners who are willing to spend money on her, it is not very comfortable to be the second wife of those nouveau riche.
Her purpose is very simple now, that is, she can't look down on Huang Ruirui well.
"Huang Ruirui, I hate you all my life." When she left the school gate, the sentence she shouted at Huang Ruirui was her truest heart, and she had always longed to trample Huang Ruirui under her feet.
"Say, come all the way to me, what's the matter?" In the KTV private room, Zhang Jingming smoked a cigarette, and asked such a sentence as the smoke ring spit out.
"I want to ask, are you really willing to quit the entertainment industry like this?" Su Gelin asked.
What can you do if you are unwilling, Zhang Jingming smiled bitterly, who called the person he picked, there is such a big background and backstage behind him.
"Actually, you can retaliate, you can poke the handle out of your hand." She looked at Zhang Jingming, her eyes were shining, but she was thinking about what might be possible in her heart.
"Poke the handle out?" Zhang Jingming looked at her playfully.
was forced to leave at first, and he also thought about this possibility, and shook out the matter of Huang Ruirui at the beginning, but at that time, all the media collected hush money, and all the news about Huang Ruirui, whether true or false, was not allowed to be released again, and his handle was useless.
Gradually, he didn't have news of Huang Ruirui, so he almost forgot about it.
"What's in it for me?" He looked at Su Gelin and asked rhetorically.
"First, you can take the opportunity to blackmail a large sum of money, second, you can take revenge on Huang Ruirui for ruining your future, and third, maybe, you are standing on the cusp of this matter, and you will become popular again." Su Gelin threw out the statement that she had already calculated in her heart.
It sounds like Zhang Jingming is thinking about it everywhere.
"What about you? What do you want to gain from this? Zhang Jingming pondered carefully.
"Because I hate Huang Ruirui......" Su Gelin smiled coquettishly, and the topic changed: "Who let her shake with you and ruined my idol." ”
This is half true, but the hatred in the depths of her eyes is extremely real.
Zhang Jingming finally learned acting professionally, and these micro-expressions did not escape his eyes.
"Really?" He smiled, but reached out and hugged her: "Is it really because I shook her car, so you hate her?" ”
"Yes. I hate her. Su Gelin raised her head and said hatefully, but she fell into Zhang Jingming's ear and bit it.
"Well, let's shake it, your mental balance?" Zhang Jingming stared at her and asked blatantly.
"Nasty." Su Gelin threw a seductive glance at Zhang Jingming, smiled coquettishly, and jumped up from his arms.
But Zhang Jingming had already unceremoniously backhanded, grabbed her, and pressed her down on the sofa.
Nanshan Huo Mansion, a villa that usually looks quiet and stable, seems to be extremely busy today.
Today is Huo Wensheng's birthday, although he is only a loose student in his sixties, and he does not need to make a big deal with it, but among his close relatives and friends, he always has to come over for a meal and drink.
Of course, Huo Jingwei and Huang Ruirui have to come back.
For this day, Huang Ruirui has been nervous for a while.
Knowing that Old Man Huo doesn't like him, and also knows that he opposes himself being with Huo Jingwei, today's meal is not a Hongmen banquet.
But she still has to bite the bullet, this is Huo Jingwei's opportunity to officially introduce herself to his family and those relatives and friends, she can't be stage frightened.
After all, she and Huo Jingwei are now running for the purpose of getting married, of course, I want everyone to know, not just as Huo Jingfeng said, just treating her as a mistress who is not seen in secret.
"Can I dress up like this?" Huang Ruirui picked out a dress again, and asked Huo Jingwei a little unconfidently.
This is already the sixth dress.
Huo Jingwei had a headache, he wanted to say, any one is fine, don't be so nervous.
However, he himself was nervous.
After all, it was the first time to bring Huang Ruirui back to Huo's house, although some agreements had been reached with Huo Wensheng, he was still afraid of a conflict out of thin air.
Huang Ruirui finally chose a small dress with a light lotus color, the color is not thick or light, and the style is decent, with a French bun, slim, dignified and elegant.
Huang Ruirui carried the Kun bag of the same color and turned around in front of Huo Jingwei: "Is this appropriate?" ”
Huo Jingwei nodded, marry a wife and marry a virtuous wife, his wife is so dignified and elegant, knowledgeable, where is she not virtuous, where is she not worthy of being the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Huo family?
The two packed up, and then got into the car with the congratulatory gifts that had been prepared a long time ago.
"I hope the old man can like it." Huang Ruirui was carrying the gift box, and she was really unconfident.
"Courtesy is light and affection is important." Huo Jingwei can only be so comforted.
To add a little confidence to her, he reached out and squeezed her hand.
Her fingertips, with a little coldness, showed that she was in an extremely uneasy mood right now.
"It's okay, Ruirui, you just take this as if this is to accompany me to any elder's drinking party." He clenched her fingers, "Whether they agree or disagree, I will insist on being with you." ”
Huang Ruirui smiled, of course she understood that Huo Jingwei would insist on being with her.
Her thoughts are actually the same as Huo Jingwei, although love is a matter of the two, but marriage is not just a matter of the two, she feels that she should still work hard to make his family accept herself. In this way, it will be much easier to be sandwiched in the middle.
She didn't want to marry Huo Jingwei in a voice full of opposition and resentment.
The car stopped in front of Nanshan Huo's house, and countless luxury cars have been parked outside, all of which are here to pay homage to the old man's birthday, and the parking garage in the villa is obviously not enough, and it has been parked outside.
The door of the villa was wide open, and Huo Wensheng, accompanied by his second wife Yang Shuqin, was sitting in a wheelchair at the gate outside.
Dressed in a red Tang costume, his spirit today looks particularly vibrant.
Many relatives and friends gathered together, and the children also shuttled around the garden.
Huo Jingwei got out of the car first, still in his usual black suit, with a white shirt with gold threads and dark threads, calm and restrained, with a little bit of domineering.
He walked around the front of the car and walked to the other side, and the gentleman opened the door.
Huang Ruirui smiled, forced herself to calmly step out of the car door, glanced at the group of people in the villa, and then put her hand on Huo Jingwei's arm.
