Chapter 180: Engagement Banquet
Chen Xuewu had to give in to Li Chunhong's persistence, obediently followed her through the street, and went straight to the large department store.
The mall is very large, and the second and third floors are for men's and women's clothing. Because it is winter, the clothing is also dominated by winter clothes. Li Chunhong needed Chen Xuewu to immediately put on new clothes for the entertainment scene, so he bought him a coat. So, despite Chen Xuewu's strong opposition, she forcibly bought a set of branded suits worth 8,000 yuan in a cute and coquettish manner.
Chen Xuewu reluctantly accepted, and after he changed into that well-fitting suit, Li Chunhong wouldn't let him take it off again.
Chen Xuewu had no choice but to say at this time: "Since we have finished buying clothes, let's leave quickly." β
Unexpectedly, Li Chunhong still refused to give up: "Learn martial arts, it's quite cold outside now." Do you look a little thin in a suit? β
Chen Xuewu was stunned: "What else do you want?" β
Li Chunhong said seriously: "You should buy another coat." β
Chen Xuewu shook his head: "Forget it, the clothes here are too expensive." β
"Hehe, you're a famous writer now, shouldn't you wear a few fancy clothes?"
Chen Xuewu dragged Li Chunhong: "Then buy it later." β
Li Chunhong shook his arm: "No." Today is a good day for you and me. Must buy today. I have enough money in this card. β
Chen Xuewu really couldn't resist her, so he had to move to the coat area with her.
This time, Li Chunhong actually chose a fur coat worth tens of thousands of yuan for him.
Chen Xuewu was startled again, although he tried every means to prevaricate, but he was still forced to accept it at Li Chunhong's insistence. At this time, he was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and he was wearing an expensive fur coat outside, but when he walked out of the department store with Li Chunhong, he had no joy at all.
Li Chunhong seemed satisfied, and kept praising it: "Hey, this is really 'people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles'." You're so handsome and cool in this good outfit, and that's what I imagined my boyfriend. β
Chen Xuewu smiled bitterly: "It's a pity, my clothes are all your money, and I feel that my face is particularly feverish." β
"Hehe, what do you have to have a fever?"
"I feel like a 'soft rice' master."
Li Chunhong's pretty face sank, and then he said angrily: "How can you describe yourself as eating soft rice?" I will depend on you for my support. β
Chen Xuewu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Then I'll do my best in the future." β
When the two of them walked back to Fumanlou, Li Yaquan's tour guide was anxiously guarding the door, and when he saw them coming back, he couldn't help asking, "Chunhong, why did you go just now?" β
Li Chunhong deliberately snuggled up to the side of Chen Xuewu's body: "I'll accompany my boyfriend to visit the shopping mall opposite." Are you in a hurry? β
Li Yaquan smiled bitterly: "Now the colleagues of the crew are coming over one after another, and most of them are here for the two of you." You're half hosts, you should be at the door to greet them, right? β
Li Chunhong smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I neglected this matter, and I'll stay here now." β
Li Yaquan couldn't help but look at Chen Xuewu's outfit, and couldn't help but admire: "Teacher Chen is really handsome today, what is the difference between this and a groom?" β
Li Chunhong deliberately showed jealousy: "What about me?" β
"Hehe, you are like a bride at all times, and even more so today."
Li Chunhong chuckled: "Don't fool me, hurry up and get busy with you." β
Li Yaquan immediately said: "Okay, this task of receiving follow-up colleagues will be handed over to the two of you." β
Chen Xuewu was not embarrassed to speak, but just smiled.
Next, the crew colleagues who came were received by Chen Xuewu and Li Chunhong and invited into the hotel.
"Teacher Chen, you are really in good spirits today." A woman's sweet voice reached Chen Xuewu's ears.
He and Li Chunhong turned around at the same time, and it turned out to be Cheng Suzhi, the female number one in the play "Distant Love", standing on their side with a smile.
As soon as Chen Xuewu saw her coming, he immediately smiled honestly: "Xiao Cheng is here?" Please come in. Today is the reunion of our crew to hold this celebration banquet. You're still the main character. β
Cheng Suzhi chuckled: "I originally booked a ticket back to Sichuan today, and I didn't want to attend this party, but I heard that today's celebration banquet also includes you and Chunhong's sister getting engaged." I simply changed my ticket just to ask for a glass of wine for both of you. β
Li Chunhong was already worried about Cheng Suzhi, so she stepped forward gratefully and took her hand: "You can participate in our engagement banquet, I and Xuewu are really moved." Thank you for coming. β
Cheng Suzhi giggled again: "Don't be polite to me." Mr. Chen is the benefactor of my family. I'm here for a show, that's a must. β
Li Chunhong was stunned: "How can he be kind to your family?" β
Cheng Suzhi was embarrassed to say too clearly, so she covered it up: "I have been in the film and television industry for almost 20 years, and I have always been a marginal star. This time, I took advantage of Mr. Chen's big fire and increased my family's economic income at the same time, isn't this my family's benefactor? β
Li Chunhong laughed and said, "Then you should thank Director Li even more." Because it's the actor he chose. β
Cheng Suzhi nodded: "Of course I have to thank Director Li, but I also thank Teacher Chen." β
Chen Xuewu understood the meaning of Cheng Suzhi's so-called 'thanks', and couldn't help asking: "Xiaolin (Cheng Suzhi's husband Lin Yifan) is okay?" β
Cheng Suzhi threw a treacherous look at Chen Xuewu: "Of course he is fine, he will soon be a father." β
Chen Xuewu was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Then I congratulate you. β
Cheng Suzhi was a little shy at this time, and replied in a mosquito voice: "I went to the hospital to check, and he was pregnant before he left last time." β
Chen Xuewu was excited, but he couldn't help but sigh: "The country's two-child policy is really good." You finally have an emotional bond with him. β
Li Chunhong was a little confused, and couldn't help but be curious: "Hey, what are you two talking about?" β
Chen Xuewu felt that now was not the time to tell her the truth, especially in front of Cheng Suzhi, so he said implicitly: "You can't say this too carefully." β
"Hey, what the hell are you selling?"
Chen Xuewu saw a personable middle-aged man walking down from a luxury car at this time, and couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly interrupted Li Chunhong: "Chunhong, who do you see that is?" β
Li Chunhong looked at Chen Xuewu's fingers, and suddenly smiled: "Teacher Liang! β
Chen Xuewu took advantage of the moment when Li Chunhong's attention was diverted, and waved his hand to Cheng Suzhi beside him: "Xiao Cheng, please come in." β
Cheng Suzhi realized that she was a little too excited just now, and almost exposed her privacy to Li Chunhong, so she nodded shyly to Chen Xuewu, and immediately turned around and walked into the hotel.
Chen Xuewu was very surprised by the sudden arrival of this new confidant, and before he could come to him, he couldn't help but whisper to Li Chunhong: "Why is he here?" β
Li Chunhong laughed in a low voice: "Of course I notified him to come." The sketch he drew for us had his phone number on it. β
"Well, why did you inform him?"
Li Chunhong glanced at him: "Have you forgotten?" Let's promise him to drink our wine. β
"Oh." Chen Xuewu let out a vague sound, and then found that there was also a young girl who came with the painter.
"Is that girl Teacher Liang's new girlfriend?"
Li Chunhong couldn't help but stab him hard: "What kind of eyes are you?" That girl still looks like a student, she must be Teacher Liang's daughter. β
Chen Xuewu suddenly realized, and hurriedly greeted: "Teacher Liang is here?" Welcome! β
Liang Mengqiao walked up to them quickly and shook hands with them one by one: "Haha, you have done a happy event so soon?" I can finally drink your wine early. β
Chen Xuewu was a little embarrassed and said: "Actually, this is just an engagement banquet between me and Chunhong, but a celebration banquet for our crew." can only be regarded as borrowing flowers to offer Buddha to have a party within the crew, which is not a real wedding wine. β
Liang Mengqiao disagreed: "Haha, at your age, it is impossible to have a big marriage ceremony, and this engagement ceremony can be regarded as a formality." I still want to bless you both. β
Chen Xuewu's face was a little feverish, and he immediately focused his eyes on the girl: "This is your daughter, right?" She's so pretty, she looks like you. β
Liang Mengqiao put his hand on the girl's shoulder at this time, and told him kindly: "Xiaohui, this pair of uncles and aunts are the new good friends that Dad mentioned to you. Call Uncle Chen and Aunt Li. β
The girl looked very shy, and whispered to Chen Xuewu and Li Chunhong one by one.
"This kid is so polite, tell Auntie, what's your name?"
Li Chunhong took the girl's hand and talked to her cordially.
Chen Xuewu also took the opportunity to chat with Liang Mengqiao.
Just then, another crew member arrived in a hurry. Chen Xuewu hurriedly asked Liang Mengqiao to take his daughter into the hotel, and then greeted the middle-aged woman with Li Chunhong.
It turned out that she was Zhang Fengzhu, the production director of the show, and one of the important shareholders of the film and television media company.
"Director Zhang is here? Welcome, welcome! Chen Xuewu and Li Chunhong greeted together.
Zhang Fengzhu first said a few words of blessing to the two of them, and then said: "Since Mr. Chen has confirmed his relationship with Chunhong today, don't live in the crew dormitory anymore." β
Chen Xuewu was surprised: "Why? β
Zhang Fengzhu explained: "Our crew has been disbanded, and there are almost no people in that dormitory. Is it appropriate for you to live there alone? So hurry up and move to Chunhong's house. The conditions of her family are definitely much better than the ones you live in in that cold kiln. β
Li Chunhong didn't wait for Chen Xuewu to speak, and immediately said: "Okay, Xuewu will move to my house tonight." β
Chen Xuewu had no choice but to reluctantly acquiesce.
Next, the crew rushed to a few young cast and crew. They are a group of energetic young men and women, and when they saw Chen Xuewu and Li Chunhong waiting at the door of the hotel in full costume, they naturally had to make fun of and 'play' them.
Chen Xuewu and Li Chunhong had no choice but to socialize.
In the end, the young people had to take a group photo of them in front of the hotel.
Chen Xuewu couldn't refuse, so he had to fiddle with Li Chunhong in various group photos for them to take pictures with their smartphones.
"Teacher Chen, please put your hand on Sister Li's shoulder; Sister Li, please stick closer. β
A girl uses her smartphone to aim at them, gesturing to make them feel more intimate.
Chen Xuewu was a little overwhelmed, feeling that the girl just wanted to take a photo of herself and Li Chunhong hugging each other.
Li Chunhong looked very calm, immediately snuggled her delicate body in Chen Xuewu's arms, and reminded in a low voice: "Xuewu, hurry up and hug me with your arms, just meet her request." β
"Oh..." Chen Xuewu Muran stretched out his arm and wrapped his arm around Li Chunhong's shoulder.
"Okay, just this position, one-two..."
Chen Xuewu was a little embarrassed to face the girl's mobile phone lens, and subconsciously shifted his attention to the side.
Unexpectedly, when his gaze swept to a girl not far away, he was stunned.
At first, he thought that his eyes were glazed, and he couldn't help blinking his eyes, but the girl's delicate face was still clearly reflected in his mindβshe was Juanzi who came in a hurry.
"Juanzi?" Chen Xuewu was suddenly at a loss. (To be continued.) )
