Chapter 54: A Glimpse into the Secret
Participating in the Egret Award ceremony again, Ji Qianyi is still wearing a dress designed by Xu Heyuan, and he is now Moamp; Lee's spokesperson, many formal occasions have to wear their own endorsement costumes, Huang Jialin did not attend because of the hope of the best actress, but stayed in the crew day and night to catch up with the show, hoping that it would end before the Chinese New Year, and she also hoped to go home to accompany her parents.
Xu Heyan watched the live broadcast in the dressing room, Ji Qianyi won the award for Best Supporting Actor, and the interesting thing is that Wu Xingyi was actually the guest of honor, she was dressed in Valentino haute couture, which made her fairy, and it was very eye-catching to stand with Ji Qianyi, and advertised for their new drama. And Xu Minran won the Best Actress unexpectedly, this woman has been popular all over the country for 12 years, if there is no one behind her, no one will believe it at all, but the person behind her is too deep to find out. Watching Xu Minran elegantly say her acceptance speech, Xu Heyan secretly vowed to make up for this position for Huang Jialin.
Ji Qianyi participated in the celebration banquet that followed, and Wu Xingfu and Xu Minran also participated. Xu Heyan didn't expect that she actually saw Zhou Jingrun and Zhou Jingtian brothers, as soon as they appeared, they attracted the attention of most female artists, although they knew that the two brothers had already been engaged, but this did not prevent them from taking advantage of the night to win better resources for themselves.
Xu Heyan stood in the corner with a glass of red wine, the reason why she participated in this celebration banquet was also to accompany Duan Lei. The banquet was very lively, Duan Lei seemed to be very familiar with the Zhou brothers, and several people stood together and chatted happily.
"Qianyi, I've really grown up a lot." Zhou Jingrun found Ji Qianyi who was chatting with Wu Xingfu, so he took the initiative to go over to greet him, he admired this brother-in-law very much, and watched him grow up from childhood to adulthood, a worry-free child.
"Sister...... Brother Zhou, why are you here too? Ji Qianyi was also tepid when he saw Zhou Jingrun, and his expression was very flat.
"I happened to be free today, so I came over with Jing Tian, congratulations on winning the award!" Zhou Jingrun patted him on the shoulder, "Time flies so fast, you can grow up and be on your own." ”
"Thank you! I thought that Brother Zhou would not take care of Huayu anymore if he handed it over to Brother Tuesday to manage. Ji Qianyi glanced at Zhou Jingtian, who was surrounded by women, he didn't like Zhou Jingtian since he was a child, this person's stubbornness is too heavy, the so-called Tao is not the same.
"Jing Tian still needs to practice, by the way, will your sister come back for the Spring Festival this year?" Zhou Jingrun suddenly asked about Ji Tongxia's situation.
"I don't know yet!" Ji Qianyi felt a little strange, his brother-in-law should know his sister's movements better than himself, how could he ask this question.
"Really? If there is any movement between her, please tell me as soon as possible. Zhou Jingrun frowned, and when he saw his puzzled expression, he explained: "Your sister has had a little conflict with me recently!" ”
Ji Qianyi nodded clearly, his sister is a little anxious, she has fallen out with Zhou Jingrun countless times since she was a child, and every time Zhou Jingrun took the initiative to reconcile with her, so this time my sister is waiting for him to bow her head again.
Xu Heyan chatted with some people and felt bored, their attempts to hunt for beauty on this occasion were greater than the idea of cooperation, and even her own name as an agent was explicitly hinted at by several bigwigs, she was really hungry!
She walked to the corner of the balcony, and although the winter night was windy, it was quiet and undisturbed. However, she had forgotten that many things had happened in such a quiet place, and when she heard two footsteps approaching, she knew that she was forced to listen to the corner.
"Congratulations on your win, but don't look for me again." The man's voice was low and cold, as if he was a little impatient.
The woman was facing Xu Heyan's direction, even if the light was dim, she still recognized Xu Minran who had just won the Best Actress, it seemed that the man with his back to herself should be the owner behind her.
"I ...... Where was something made? Isn't it nice that we've been together for so many years? Xu Minran, who has always been arrogant, actually showed such an aggrieved expression, it seems that she is not without feelings for this man, but it seems that she loves this man very much.
"Your mistake is that you shouldn't be delusional, you have got what you want for so many years, and you can do it yourself in the future." The disgust in the man's voice was too obvious, as if Xu Minran had done something unforgivable.
Seeing that the man was about to turn around and leave, Xu Minran suddenly hugged him from behind and pleaded: "I was wrong, I really know that I was wrong!" Brother Run, I will never be again, please don't leave me! ”
Xu Heyan was shocked, Brother Run? Zhou Jingrun? She quietly poked her head out, and finally saw the man's side face, it was really Zhou Jingrun! This realization made her tremble, she heard that Zhou Jingrun and Ji Tongxia have been engaged for at least 6 years, and the two have known each other since childhood, so he has been hiding from the Ji family and raising Xu Minran outside?
"Let it go! If I hear you talk nonsense to Tong Xia again, how can I hold you up to heaven with one hand, and I can also send you to hell! Zhou Jingrun's voice was even colder than the weather.
Xu Minran watched him leave blankly, sat on the ground all of a sudden, crying so much that she was not sad, most of her youth was given to this man, but now she was discarded by him so lightly, what made her even more sad was that she loved him deeply, but he had never been moved by himself! It wasn't until Xu Minran's agent Zhu Jiabi came to find her and took her away that Xu Heyan breathed a sigh of relief, she was almost frozen in the corner.
Back in the warm room, Xu Heyan trembled, the impact just now was a bit big for her, she looked at Zhou Jingrun who was talking politely with others, and heard someone next to her whispering about Xu Minran's sudden departure, she couldn't help but sigh and sigh, it seems that she did underestimate Zhou Jingrun's ruthlessness at the beginning, so she used Ji Qianyi so confidently to inform Zhou Jingrun about Zhou Jingtian and Huang Jialin, if Zhou Jingrun's anger implicated Huang Jialin, then no matter how hard she tried, Huang Jialin's future would be ruined in her own hands!
"You don't look good, what's wrong?" Ji Qianyi saw that she was alone in a daze, so he walked over quickly, he looked for her for a long time but couldn't find it.
"It's nothing, you have something to do with me?" Xu Heyan barely squeezed out a smile, she should be glad that Zhou Jingrun's men were merciful.
"It's almost time, we should go back." Ji Qianyi looked at her with a frown, this guy looked crumbling, like he was fine.
"Really? Let's go, then. Oh, no, I'm going to say hello to Mr. Duan. Xu Heyan staggered towards Duan Lei, she needed a little time to think about how to go in the future.
Ji Qianyi was not very relieved, so he went over with her. Duan Lei didn't say anything, maybe he could also see that Xu Heyan's face was very bad, so he told her to go back and have a good rest.
This time it was Ah Ming's car, Xu Heyan sat in the back seat and fell asleep groggily, Ji Qianyi told Ah Ming to turn up the temperature of the air conditioner, and took off his coat to cover her. Ah Ming looked through the rearview mirror at Ji Qianyi's appearance of holding Xu Heyan carefully in his arms, with a complicated expression, maybe he was thinking too much.
The car was parked downstairs, Xu Heyan was still asleep, Ji Qianyi resigned herself to picking her up, she was working hard during this time, so let herself serve her once. Armin watched them walk into the elevator, his frown as if he could kill a fly, he took out his phone and thought about it again and again, and finally put it down.
Put her on the bed, take the cleansing oil and start to remove her makeup, only to realize that something is wrong with her. Her cheeks were very hot and she didn't sleep very well, Ji Qianyi quickly took her temperature, 38. With a high fever of 4 degrees, it's no wonder that she found out that something was wrong with her when she was in the banquet hall.
Ji Qianyi fed her antipyretics, carefully removed her makeup and wiped her palms and neck with alcohol, and barely let her get rid of the fever after not closing her eyes all night, he went to the kitchen to boil a little white porridge, but Xu Heyan seemed to have a nightmare, although the fever subsided, but the person was not awake, so the porridge was difficult to feed in. Ji Qianyi had no choice but to call his family doctor and ask him to come over and check Xu Heyan. Dr. Sun came in a hurry and just gave her a nutrient solution, and told him to take good care of Xu Heyan, who was not yet awake and probably thought about it in his heart.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Xu Heyan woke up, Ji Qianyi was reading next to her, and when she saw that she was awake, she handed her a glass of water, and went out to bring in the white porridge that had been kept warm and gave it to her, without saying a word, Xu Heyan faintly felt that he was angry, but she didn't know why he was angry, obviously she was a patient.
Xu Heyan drank the white porridge slowly, her heart turned back and forth, and she didn't know whether to tell Ji Qianyi what she saw, but she felt that this was his family matter, and she didn't want to get involved.
"It's almost the New Year, you should go home and live, right?" Xu Heyan said in a hoarse voice.
Ji Qianyi raised his eyes and glanced at her, let out a "hum", and then lowered his head and ignored her. Xu Heyan felt that this guy was really becoming more and more unpredictable, so she simply stopped talking and lowered her head to drink porridge seriously.
Ji Qianyi saw that she didn't speak, and she was even more unhappy: "What do you want to say, I've been worried since last night, and I was asked such inexplicable words just now!" “
"It's nothing, just asking. Your final exams are over, so you should go home to your parents. Xu Heyan put the bowl on the cabinet next to the bed, took another sip of water, and then said slowly.
"Didn't you see something you shouldn't have seen last night, did it have something to do with me?" Ji Qianyi put down the book and looked at her seriously, he felt that Xu Heyan was very strange since last night.
"I seem to be very experienced when you hear you," Xu Heyan smiled palely, "I've actually been curious, your sister got engaged so early, why don't you have a childhood sweetheart like your sister!" “
"That's what you want to ask?" Ji Qianyi didn't expect her to ask this question, and her face was slightly surprised and shy.
"You're a junior, and there's still a year left for that 'love ban', but it doesn't seem to be needed anymore." Xu Heyan explained that since she learned about Ji Qianyi's heart, she was also thinking about whether to revoke the "love ban".
"Our family and the Zhou family can be regarded as world friends, my grandfather was also the founding general back then, and Zhou Jingrun's grandfather was a brother in life and death, but since my grandfather's generation, he began to do business and gradually separated from politics; But the Zhou family until Zhou Jingrun's generation is still dominated by the executive, and the Zhou family has many brothers and sisters, and they are intertwined in the political circles. In fact, after so many generations, there is not much left, but my father and Zhou Jingrun's father are classmates and friends, so the two families are very close. The brothers of the Zhou family often come to my house to play, and Zhou Jingbing has also come with me a few times, but you have also learned my sister's temper, so she has a lot of bamboo horses, but I don't even have a green plum. Ji Qianyi patiently explained that Ji Tongxia was even more difficult to deal with when she was a child than now, only Zhou Jingrun could cure her, and now it seems that even Zhou Jingrun has been subdued by her.
"Your sister...... It's really overbearing! Xu Heyan remembered that meeting with Ji Tongxia, she was indeed a wonderful woman!
"Actually, I don't like Zhou Jingrun very much...... Ji Qianyi doesn't know why, probably because he has been buried in his heart for too long, and he wants to find someone to talk to, and Xu Heyan happens to be the most suitable person, "Zhou Jingrun is 7 years older than my sister, although age is nothing, but the Zhou family has a large population and unpredictable mind, and he is the oldest in the Zhou family's generation, you should be able to imagine how complicated his situation is, but he can properly handle the interests of all parties, his means and the city government are simply unimaginable." Although my sister is a bully flower, but after all, her mind is not pure enough to the city, if you really want to say it, it is like a little white rabbit falling into the fox hole, but there is no way that my parents like him very much, and my sister likes him more. ”
Xu Heyan nodded very approvingly, Zhou Jingrun is indeed unfathomable, this guy has actually raised a woman outside for so many years without letting the Ji family find out, Ji Tongxia is indeed not his opponent!
"Your parents and sister like him so much, have you ever thought that maybe Zhou Jingrun doesn't like Ji Tongxia as much as you think? After all, he has been involved in the affairs of the entertainment industry and has seen countless beauties of all kinds. Xu Heyan asked tentatively.
"I'm worried about that, too, but I haven't heard of any misdeeds from him until now." Ji Qianyi frowned, he remembered that he had vaguely seen him enter a bar with a beautiful woman, but he didn't see it clearly, so he didn't dare to tell his family, for fear that his parents would think too much, and he was even more afraid that his sister's temper would be out of control.
Xu Heyan pursed her lips, and finally swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, no matter what, Zhou Jingrun has cut off the relationship with Xu Minran, no matter how much he messes around outside, he should still have some sincerity towards Ji Tongxia, or he has greater ambitions for the Ji family's industry.
