Chapter 185: I'm afraid I can't help it
Xu Qingyi's status in front of Lin Zhiqing can be seen, but in just a few days, Xu Qingyi has changed from a terminated global spokesperson to an art consultant of the Huo Group.
Although this title sounds like a fictitious position, what Xu Qingyi did was not false at all, and he helped the group earn several art awards in just a few days, and he was quite prestigious in the group. And just when she was slowly establishing her image through her career, Jing Jiaren was still in a mess.
The news that Shen Yibai unintentionally revealed that day was undoubtedly a shocking thunderbolt, which caught everyone off guard.
Jiang Li actually always knew that the Shen family did not agree with her and Shen Hanyao, this was originally a matter of knowing it, and when he was raised by his side, he knew that he would never be able to walk with such a bright person. But after seeing each other again, his rogue lingering made her heart move from time to time.
Now, when he embarked on the exact same path she had envisioned, his heart was not as open-minded as before. Jiang Li knew that she shouldn't have any emotions, but she still shook off Shen Hanyao's hand in front of everyone with an expressionless face and drove away.
He Shen Hanyao was engaged to someone else without telling her, if it wasn't for Shen Er's words, would she still be the canary in his cage like back then?
She has already experienced pain once, and she will not go through it a second time.
After Jiang Li left, she never returned to this villa, and Jing Jiaren looked for her for two days before finding her in the apartment where the two lived after graduating from school.
Jing Jiaren didn't say a word, and accompanied her to drink wine in the villa for a day.
The two clinked glasses intermittently, and Jiang Li soon hugged Jing Jiaren and cried with drunken eyes.
"Beauty, why do you say that my life is so bitter! Finally, now that life is a little better, he ran away again......"
"Woooooooooo......oo This girl's rich inheritance is in vain! ”
Jing Jiaren: "......"
However, Jing Jiaren understands that she doesn't actually care about this, just to make herself feel better.
She raised her hand and patted Jiang Li on the back.
"What's next? Although he is engaged, you are still the first sister of his company, and your resources are all influencing each other, and it is inevitable that there will be contact in the future. Jing Jiaren analyzed.
Jiang Li wiped a handful of tears and said hatefully: "This girl is engaged in her own career, and she cares about his!" Whether resources are given or not, the old lady relies on her ability to eat, can she still be afraid of him? ”
Jing Jiaren saw that she was not hit by the incident and lost her fighting spirit, so she was relieved.
She took care of Jiang Li and drove back, and received the news that Xu Qingyi had become the art consultant of the Huo Group.
Xiao Song was quite anxious on the other end of the phone: "Goddess, this Miss Xu has been very powerful recently, and she has won several international awards with the company's team, making up for the company's vacancy in this area, and now she is very optimistic!" What do we do next? ”
Jing Jiaren asked rhetorically: "What do you say?" ”
"She does her job, and I am my president's wife, does the two have anything to do with that?"
Xiao Song: "!! ”
A big guy is a big guy.
Jing Jiaren said a word unhurriedly, but directly reassured Xiao Song.
Yes, no matter how Xu Qingyi turns the sky, he is just an employee, his goddess is the wife of the president, the president's favorite, and he is afraid of these little things.
Xiao Song hung up the phone in a good mood, and specially hummed a song to send Huo Tingxiao a cup of hand-poured coffee to the office, looking as happy as his wife and someone on the street quarreled and won.
Huo Tingxiao looked at him strangely, and hinted at himself in his heart.
Be sober, where did Xiao Song get his wife!
However, although Jing Jiaren herself doesn't care about these little things, some people care about it, and they still care very much.
Jing Jiaren went to the apartment to see Jiang Li during the day, and only went back to the old mansion to rest at night, and at this time, Xu Qingyi accompanied Mrs. Lin to dinner at her and Huo Tingxiao's residence.
At first, Jing Jiaren just said hello and went upstairs, but later Lin Zhiqing called her to accompany her to eat, but the greeting didn't work, Jing Jiaren had to sit down and ask the housekeeper to serve her a meal.
Jing Jiaren had been with Jiang Li for a long time during the day, and her body was stained with a little bit of wine, and as soon as she sat down, Xu Qingyi raised her wrist and put it under the tip of her nose, frowning slightly.
"Sister-in-law, what are you...... Where did you come back, I'm afraid that Brother Tingxiao will be angry when he smells this wine, right? Xu Qingyi asked.
Jing Jiaren held chopsticks in one hand, and said without changing his face: "He is not angry." ”
Xu Qingyi was choked for a moment and quickly changed his tone. She glanced at Mrs. Lin before hesitating: "I heard that my sister-in-law and Brother Tingxiao have been sleeping separately for the past few days, no wonder my sister-in-law said that he would not be angry, it turned out that it was because he couldn't smell it......"
As soon as Jing Jiaren heard this, she knew that she was going to be a demon.
She did sleep separately from Huo Tingxiao in the past few days, but the difference was that she took the initiative to avoid Huo Tingxiao for fear of embarrassment.
But after Xu Qingyi said it, he always felt like his relationship was broken and he was about to get divorced.
Lin Zhiqing raised his head immediately when he heard this, his good-looking eyebrows and eyes immediately wrinkled, and he looked at Jing Jiaren seriously.
"You're sleeping in separate rooms now? What kind of husband and wife are these! Jing Jiaren, just because I don't ask you doesn't mean you can do whatever you want, since you two don't have a ...... Why don't you be—"
Mrs. Lin didn't say the latter words, but even if she broke it here, everyone could understand what it meant.
It's nothing more than letting Jing Jiaren leave Huo Tingxiao and the like.
According to Jing Jiaren's idea, it is to calm things down, just let her be happy as if she didn't hear it.
But she did a lot of calculations, but she didn't count that Huo Tingxiao would come back early today.
That is, not long after Mrs. Lin's words just now, Huo Tingxiao walked through the living room in formal clothes, and stood beside Jing Jiaren to pick up Mrs. Lin's words.
"Why not as good as what?" Huo Tingxiao said expressionlessly, "In the past few days, I have indeed slept in separate rooms, because the beauty has not been very convenient in her menstrual period recently, I am worried that I can't help but propose a separate bed, and I don't know if there are any small things between these couples that are worth discussing at the dinner table." ”
Huo Tingxiao spit out a few words from his mouth lightly, but it made the cheeks of all the servants in the restaurant crimson, and even Lin Zhiqing was a little surprised.
She barely maintained her composure and patted Xu Qingyi's hand on her side: "That's nothing to be proud of, the two of you have been married for so many years, and you haven't even made a move, if you really have no feelings, don't blame your mother for speaking badly, then don't delay each other, you are not in a hurry, our elders are still in a hurry to hold the next generation!" ”
Jing Jiaren knew that after Huo Tingxiao's words just now, Mrs. Lin's words did not have any deterrent effect, and she herself was still in the stage of hot cheeks, so she pressed Huo Tingxiao, who had extracted his teeth, to the ground and beat him several times in her heart.
What's not so convenient, what's not believable......
What kind of colored words are these!
Xu Qingyi stole chicken and rice, originally wanted to make Jing Jiaren lose face in front of Xu Qingyi, but he didn't expect Huo Tingxiao to personally make dog food and stuff it into their mouths, not to mention how complicated the mood was.
It wasn't until Huo Tingxiao finished speaking and went upstairs that the atmosphere of the restaurant returned to normal, and the blush on Jing Jiaren's face disappeared a lot.
At this time, Xu Qingyi was not so surprised and unnatural.
She has always accompanied the Huo family, Mrs. Lin, intimately and comprehensively since she was a child, and naturally understands what the other party likes to listen to, what she doesn't like to hear, what she appreciates and what she doesn't appreciate.
Xu Qingyi coaxed Mrs. Lin to smile in three or two sentences, and the two casually chatted about Xu Qingyi's entry into the company to work, Mrs. Lin wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and praised her achievements.
"I think people are right, I know that you can do a good job in art, and now you have won several international awards with Huo's family, which can be regarded as a great contribution to the company in this field, I have to ask Tingxiao to give you a salary increase! Hahahaha" Mrs. Lin's rare joy was exposed.
Xu Qingyi also smiled embarrassedly: "Where, it's just normal work, Huo's has never been in contact with this field before, so there are so many blanks, that is, to catch up." ”
She said modestly: "By the way, when I took my team to participate in a competition yesterday, the person in charge of the other party gave me a ticket to the Golden Globe Film Festival Award a week later, this film festival is a niche award jointly held by 24 countries, every four years, the participation conditions are very strict, and our company has the opportunity to go because of winning the competition." Aunt Qing, you haven't been out for so long, why don't you go over and have fun? ”
Lin Zhiqing patted her hand with satisfaction when he heard this: "I know this, it is true that the conditions are more difficult, but I don't like to join in the fun now, so you should go, report the name of our Huo family, and the organizing committee will make it convenient for you." ”
Xu Qingyi's eyes lit up after hearing this, she glanced at Jing Jiaren excitedly, as if she wanted to let this sister-in-law go to play with her, but she remembered something again, and her brows tightened.
"What's wrong?" Lin Zhiqing asked.
Xu Qingyi said regretfully: "I also know that our Huo family has this influence, but this award is a real professional selection, I have the heart to let the beautiful sister-in-law go to play together, but she just had such a scandal in the screenwriting work some time ago, I'm afraid the organizing committee will not agree to ......"
She said it euphemistically, in fact, she wanted to express that Jing Jiaren's reputation was stinky and she couldn't get in.
Lin Zhiqing's expression was faint, and he didn't say much, obviously not wanting to fight for Jing Jiaren.
The corners of Jing Jiaren's lips, who had not spoken, hooked up a mocking smile, and felt that it was not interesting to sit down any longer, so she put down the dishes and chopsticks and went upstairs.
However, Xu Qingyi didn't seem to want to give up yet, she said firmly at the back of Jing Jiaren leaving: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely find an opportunity for you to go over and play together!" ”
Jing Jiaren didn't look back when she heard the voice, her hoarse voice was low, and she dropped a sentence easily and disdainfully: "No need, no need." ”
Such a slow attitude made Lin Zhiqing very unaccustomed to it, but it did not extinguish Xu Qingyi's enthusiasm.
