Chapter Seventy-Three: Aren't You Tired of Pretending?
As a subordinate, Fan Cheng has no right to put the boss's private affairs aside.
As a friend, he said: "Does the president plan to hide the existence of his wife all the time?" ”
"Of course not, I'll make it public when the time is right." If he didn't give Jiang Mian, he would make up for it one by one.
Fan Cheng nodded, "Then the president should hurry up, maybe Madame also wants to make it public?" ”
Ji Zhixiu raised his eyebrows, "You understand very well?" ”
"No," Fan Cheng nodded hesitantly, "Alice taught me." She said that girls like to be above board. ”
"Fair and honest preference." Ji Zhixiu repeated, thoughtfully, "Got it." ”
……
The palace fighting drama filmed by Jiang Mian is called "The Legend of the Lock Heart", and the filming cycle is set for five months. Preliminary estimates are that it may not be filmed until the end of the year.
Chang Min is a powerful actor, and he often mentions Jiang Mian in private. The atmosphere of the crew is very harmonious.
At the end of December, Jiang Mian ended all the scenes and completed the finale.
Ji Zhixiu came to the airport to pick her up in person. Jiang Mian wore a red cotton suit with a little black dress on his lower body. There is a scarf around his neck, and the whole person is cute and energetic.
Relying on the mask and unable to see her face, she jumped into his arms, her eyes were full of smiles, "Finally rushed back." ”
This drama has been filmed hard, and it has also gained a lot.
Ji Zhixiu pinched her palm, wrapped her little hand with his big palm, and put it into his coat pocket to warm her hands, "Happy finishing, hard work." ”
The two got into the car, warmed up with heaters, and Jiang Mian took off his cotton clothes and put them aside. Ji Zhixiu called her, "Come here." ”
Jiang Mian turned his head, "Huh? ”
In the next second, Jiang Mian was hit by a bouquet of flowers.
Jiang Mian's eyebrows were crooked, his eyes were dotted, and his smile was bright, "I like it very much." ”
Ji Zhixiu looked down at her, and his voice was gentle: "If you like it, Aunt Song has cooked for you." ”
Jiang Mian lowered his head and sniffed the flowers, "It's good to go home." ”
It's been a long time since I've been back to Xiushui Villa, and Jiang Mian misses every grass and tree here.
As soon as Aunt Song saw her come back, she smiled, "I made the dishes that the young lady loves to eat, come and taste them." ”
Jiang Mian sat down at the dining table, "Thank you, Aunt Song." ”
Although there is food in the crew, it is not as fragrant as the food at home.
"You're welcome, just eat more later."
Jiang Mian naturally ate a round belly and lay on the sofa, "Why didn't you see the dried fish when you came back, what about the dried fish?" ”
"I'm going to take a shower."
Ji Zhixiu rolled up a cuff and spread the paperweight on the table, "Is there any other arrangement for coming back to work?" ”
"Sister Ning said to give me a holiday and put it until the end of the New Year."
Jiang Mian tilted his head sideways, tilted on the sofa and watched him move, "What are you doing here?" ”
"There's a charity gala tomorrow, and we'll send two strokes to auction." Ji Zhixiu said lightly.
Jiang Mian immediately lay down, "You can still paint?" ”
"No, it's just a national first-class artist." He understated.
???
Are the big guys so low-key?
Jiang Mian sat beside him, intending to observe the two strokes, "What do you want to draw?" ”
"Dried fish."
The man's eyebrows and eyes are cold, only revealing the chin with a superior jaw line, and he scolds Fang Xuan between the brushes, walking like flowing water, and a few strokes outline the demeanor of the small dried fish on the paper.
Jiang Mian was amazed, "Husband, you are so good." ”
Ji Zhixiu coughed: "I haven't started writing for a long time, and I have regressed." ”
Half an hour later, he looked up and looked at Jiang Mian, "You come to inscribe." ”
Jiang Mian has a delicate hairpin, and Ji Zhixiu knows it.
Hearing this, Jiang Mian was full of interest, "Tanuki slave playing ball? ”
Ji Zhixiu groaned, "This name is good, come on." ”
She took the brush and inscribed five big characters on the side. I couldn't help but smile, "It doesn't match the style of painting." ”
"It's just a different kind of fun." He called Sun Shu and told him to take it down.
"Don't you have to frame it?" Jiang Mian asked.
"My paintings, no." Ji Zhixiu encircled her in his arms, with confidence and a hint of arrogance.
"Come with me tomorrow? By the way, let's see if there is anything I like, buy it and give it to you. ”
"Is it convenient?" Jiang Mian was afraid of being seen.
Ji Zhixiu had already prepared, "I have prepared a butterfly blue mask for you, if you don't want to show your face, you can wear it." ”
"Take a look."
Sun Shu stepped forward.
Jiang Mian slowly opened the box, the ice blue mask was made of unknown materials, but it looked brilliant, but it was as light as a cicada's wings when he picked it up. Jiang Mian put it on his face, which fit very well.
Ji Zhixiu was very satisfied, "It's very suitable for you." ”
She couldn't put it down, "It's so beautiful." ”
"If you like it, you can find someone to design it, and this is the only one."
Jiang Mian touched the tassel pendant on it, "I like it, I like it too much." ”
These bells and whistles hit her kim perfectly, and she began to look forward to tomorrow's charity gala.
"I also prepared an evening dress for you, do you want to see it again?"
"Okay."
Ji Zhixiu clapped his hands gently, and a servant respectfully presented it.
Jiang Mian couldn't wait to open the box, it was a halterneck dress of the same color as the mask.
It feels excellent to the touch, and the clothes are shiny, like a galaxy in the sky, eye-catching.
Even if Jiang Mian hasn't put it on yet, he can already imagine the effect after putting it on.
"I like it!"
Ji Zhixiu bowed slightly, she likes it, and it is worth it no matter how hard it takes.
……
Five-star hotel in Kyoto.
The hall on the eighteenth floor has already been contracted for this charity dinner.
The dinner party started at half past seven, and many people were already present at seven o'clock.
Shen Tingyu was also among them, and she came here on behalf of the Shen family. Handing the invitation to the waiter, she brushed her skirt and walked in.
When she saw that Ji Zhixiu's seat in the first row was empty, her heart pounded. He, will he come?
"Coincidentally, you can be seen here." A voice rang in her ear.
Shen Tingyu looked up, "I'm here on behalf of our Shen family, Mr. Luo is representing the Luo family?" ”
The fact that Lofe was an illegitimate child is no secret in the circle. Even in the early years, Lao Luo always turned his face ruthlessly and drove their mother and son out of the Luo family, which is also a thing that is talked about in the wealthy circle.
Even now that Lofe has returned to the Luo family, he is not the favored one. Now that Shen Tingyu said it, it seemed a little sarcastic.
Ever since she knew that Luo Fei was holding her because of Jiang Mian, Shen Tingyu always had a thorn in her words, intentionally or unintentionally.
Luo Fei was not angry, Shen Tingyu was really right. He was able to attend today, and he really got this opportunity in front of the old man, and most importantly, he trampled his waste brother under his feet. How can it not be gratifying.
He smiled good-naturedly and praised without hesitation: "You are beautiful today." ”
Shen Tingyu changed her usual style today, wearing a V Ling tunic red dress with big waves and flaming red lips, which was a little capable.
Shen Tingyu tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Thank you for the compliment." ”
Luo Fei tilted her head, and her thin lips rubbed ambiguously over her ear, "Actually, I like you a lot." ”
"How many people did Mr. Luo say this?" Shen Tingyu sneered, "Jiang Mian is also the favorite one among the love you see?" ”
Luo Fei sighed, "Good look, what do you want her to do." ”
The posture of the two is extremely ambiguous in the eyes of others.
"Is that Mr. Xiao Luo?"
"Isn't this the daughter of the Shen family?"
"What's going on, these two are together?"
"It's a good match, an adopted daughter, an illegitimate child."
The low and miscellaneous voices of discussion came into Shen Tingyu's ears, and she didn't have time to deny it. I saw Luo Fei raise his head and look in the direction where the voice was, his eyes were gloomy, and his eyes were full of ice, "Do you dare to come to me?" ”
Several people were immediately silenced.
He hooked his lips and mocked, "A bunch of old guys who only talk behind their backs." ”
Lofe turned his head slowly, "So, at some point, I think we're still very similar. There is a spirit of not admitting defeat. It's not happy to be a man and a daughter, right? ”
Shen Tingyu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously retorted, "I'm doing well." ”
The Shen family has always been very good to her, and she comforted herself so much.
"Aren't you tired of pretending?" Lofe poked her.
"I didn't!" She retorted.
"Heh, you said no, there is none." Lofe didn't argue with her, he lay lazily and reclining, one hand on his forehead, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
Shen Tingyu glanced at him twice, suppressing the churning in his heart. She is not tired at all, her parents are loving, her brother is lovely, how can she be tired?
More and more people arrived at the venue, but none of them had the figure that Shen Tingyu wanted to see. Her fists clenched slowly, could it be that Ji Zhixiu wouldn't come?
Soon, the door to the banquet was reopened.
Ji Zhixiu appeared in front of everyone in a silver-gray suit, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a woman on his arm. The two stand together in harmony and eye-catching.
Shen Tingyu's eyes couldn't hide the jealousy, staring at the woman beside him.
"What, this can't be pretended?" At some point, Lofe opened her eyes and took in her expression.
He played with the taste, "It turns out that you like Ji Zhixiu." ”
"Yes, I like him." She simply admitted.
"Do you want me to help you?" He said kindly.
"No, I can figure it out myself." Shen Tingyu refused, what could Luo Fei help her? An unidentified illegitimate child, maybe he will be kicked out of the Luo family one day.
"Okay then, when I didn't say it." Lofe lazily stretched.
Shen Tingyu's attention was still on the woman in the blue dress, what was the relationship between her and Ji Zhixiu?
Why don't you dare to show your true face but wear a mask?
Jiang Mian and Ji Zhixiu sat down, she lowered her head and said in Ji Zhixiu's ear: "Shen Tingyu is sitting behind you." ”
"Really? Didn't see it. ”
The corners of Jiang Mian's lips behind the mask couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, too, this man has always been like this. People who don't take it to heart never pay attention.
She leaned on the man's shoulder, "When will it start?" ”
Ji Zhixiu tilted his head and raised his hand to look at his watch, "There are still ten minutes." ”
Shen Tingyu stared at this back, and ruled out all the candidates one by one in his mind.
If gaze could kill, I'm afraid Jiang Mian would have died a thousand times.
Why, why are they so close? Why get together and talk!
Shen Tingyu looked at this man, she was getting more and more unable to control herself, and her love for him was increasing day after day. In this world, no one loves Ji Zhixiu more than her!
Luo Fei slapped her shoulders and whispered, "Don't make it look like you can't ask for it, there are so many people on the scene." ”
Lofe almost said the word ugly.
Shen Tingyu pursed his lips and came back to his senses, "Thank you." ”
She adjusted her expression and quickly showed a standard smile.
In the last row of seats, Nightwing crossed his legs and said, "Bring some melon seeds." ”
Someone behind him gave him, "Eat less, and if you eat more, you will get angry." ”
Nightwing didn't bother to pay attention to him, he spit out a melon seed shell, "Find a way to transfer me to the front." ”
Sitting in the back hinders him from seeing people.
