Chapter 304
She Is From The Countryside
?
304 different to best actor qu
â meilian is on a business trip with my brother. sheâs not in haicheng. rui âer will probably be here soon. â jing hailan explained and brought shi yan to sit down.
shi yan had a quiet personality. after the introduction, jing hailan and the other girls did not hang around shi yan and went off to play on their own.
âItâs okay to drink some wine, right?â jing hailan asked her.
âitâs alright,â shi yan smiled and shook her head.
Jing Hailan then poured her a glass of wine.
shi yan thanked him and took it.
â i saw rui âer post on her moments. did you guys go out during the holiday? â
â yes, her roommate invited her to visit her hometown. â
I think the scenery there is pretty good, and the photos you guys took are great too. Itâs a pity. If I had known that you guys were going, I would have gone with you guys to make up the numbers.
actually, she wasnât the one who said that. su mu saw the photo that jiang rui had posted on his wechat moments and was jealous. he complained to her that if he had known earlier, he would have followed her. he also said that jiang cheng and jing xuan were not good enough, not even telling him that they were going to play.
in short, it was childish.
it made jing hailan want to laugh when he thought of su mu like that.
âYouâll have plenty of opportunities in the future.â Shi Yan said with a smile.
âYouâre right, but Iâm still very regretful that I didnât go with you this time. iâve seen the photos of you guys in the cheongsam. youâre very pretty, especially yan. you look the best in the cheongsam.â
shi yan smiled and thanked him.
âalright, donât talk in broad daylight. Sister Yan, hereâs a toast to you.â
jing hailan was sitting on shi yanâs right, and ju yanya was sitting on her left.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
he smiled and raised his glass to her.
Shi Yan glanced at ju Yanya and clinked her glass with hers.
after each of them took a sip, ju yanya said,âsister yan, girls your age must have a lot of fans, right? Do you have any celebrities you like?â
itâs our first time meeting. I should prepare a gift for you, but I really donât have anything to give you. I was thinking if you have a star you like, I can help you get a few autographs.
âthank you, sister yanya. iâm not a fan of celebrities, so i appreciate your kind intentions.â
âYanya, your eyes arenât that bad, are they? Yan doesnât seem like the type to chase after celebrities.â
Ju Yanya glared at her. I just canât think of a gift for Yan. she said.
âyou donât have to be too careful with the gifts. when you find something suitable for our sister yan, you can buy it for her.â jing hailan said.
She hadnât given Xiaoyan any gifts until now.
It wasnât that he didnât want to, but he really hadnât found anything suitable for Yan.
however, she wasnât in a hurry. there was still a long time to go. she would find a suitable one and buy it for yan.
The young lady of the Shi family and the fifth master of the Jiang family were things that Yan didnât lack.
Therefore, she was more interested in introducing Yan to a few people she could make friends with, so that Yan could have a better life in Sea city Base.
âWhat you said makes sense.â
after saying that, ju yanya raised her glass to shi yan.âsister yan, letâs have a drink.â
After two or three cups, Jiang Rui came.
âSister hai LAN, Yan!â
She then greeted the others one after another. It was obvious that Jiang Rui knew everyone present.
âdid you come alone?â jing hailan asked her.
âmy brother sent me here, but he met someone he knew and went to another room, so he didnât care about him.â
Jiang Rui went straight to Shi Yan and sat down.âyan, how long have you been here?â
âNot long, about half an hour earlier than you,â
âdid sister hai lan introduce you to these sisters?â
Shi Yan smiled and nodded.
âThese big Sisters are all very good people, they are worth befriending.â jiang rui said with a smile.
âRui âer just knows how to talk.â One of them laughed.
âBig sister Xinxin, Iâm just telling the truth.â
âlittle girl, youâre so mischievous.â
Li Xin was li xiranâs cousin.
jiang rui smiled and turned to ju yanya.âSister Yanya, long time no see. Youâve gotten prettier again.â
âyou say the same thing every time you see me. iâm tired of hearing it. canât you say something new?â Ju Yanya said with a smile.
Jiang Rui thanked Jing Hailan and took the wine. She smiled at ju Yanya and said, â âthen, sister yanya, shall i toast to you?â
âdonât drink so much. otherwise, young master jiang will scare us with his eyes again.â
jing hailan had said this.
âitâs fine. i can hold my liquor well. i wonât get drunk after a few glasses.â
jiang rui was not an insensible person. this was an occasion where jing hailan was introducing his friend to shi yan. logically speaking, she should not speak too much and steal shi yanâs limelight.
the reason why she had been talking non-stop as soon as she entered the room was entirely because she understood shi yan.
shi yan wasnât an expert in small talk, so she was very quiet most of the time. besides jing hailan, who was a little familiar with the people present, it was shi yanâs first time meeting the others.
It was fine if they were acquaintances, but they were not very familiar with each other. She did not speak much, so the atmosphere was inevitably a little awkward.
jiang rui was afraid that shi yan would feel uncomfortable.
shi yan didnât feel uncomfortable. she didnât care much about what others thought of her.
However, she had to admit that Shi Yan would not feel bored drinking here after Jiang Rui arrived.
it felt as if the entire private room had come to life with jiang ruiâs arrival.
âyan, donât drink too much. you were drunk at the yu familyâs banquet last time.â
Jiang Rui and Jing Hailan both sighed at the mention of this.
in their opinion, shi yan was a very sensible and reasonable person. they had never thought that she would get drunk.
however, she was a good drinker. she didnât make any noise when she was drunk and just slept quietly in jiang cheâs arms.
shi yanâs hand, which was holding the wine glass, paused slightly. she smiled and said,âi was probably too happy that day.â
âYouâre happy for me, right?â jiang rui smiled slyly.
I know that youâve always been worried about me. You were finally at ease when I announced the marriage between the Yu and Jiang families at the Yu familyâs banquet that day, right? â
This was true.
Shi Yan was indeed in a good mood that day. At first, she had been drinking because she was in a good mood, but that was not the case as she drank.
He smiled and didnât speak.
jiang rui took her silence as consent.
âyan, i know youâre the best,â he said coquettishly while holding her arm.
âyan, come, letâs drink!â
shi yan had no choice but to clink glasses with her.
ju yanya looked at them and laughed. â you two are so close. this is the first time iâve seen rui âer being so close to a girl. â
âi hit it off with yan, i canât help it.â
âsister yanya, have you been busy recently?â
â itâs alright. the movie just ended, so i donât have much to do for the time being. iâll be resting for a while. â
âWhy is everyoneâs movie about to end in the same movie?â Jiang Rui said with emotion.
âOh? other than me, who elseâs movie has a hit? your third uncle?â
no, itâs best Actor qu. I heard that his recent movie also had a hit.
Ju Yanya swirled her wine glass and laughed.
âbut rui âer, i remember that you donât chase after celebrities, so how did you know that best actor qu had just finished filming a movie? Or are you very close to Best Actor qu?â
â iâm not familiar with film emperor qu. i just happen to know him. â
jiang rui was not drunk, so she naturally would not say much.
She smiled at ju Yanya and said,âbut sister Yanya, youâve always kept a distance from the male celebrities in the industry.â in order to avoid suspicion, you usually donât mention other male stars in public. why is it that when we mention movie king qu today, youâre so open to the topic?â
âHehe, sister Yanya, donât tell me youâre interested in Best Actor qu?â
shi yan also looked at ju yanya.
Holding the wine glass with one hand, his eyes fell on ju Yanyaâs face calmly and indifferently.
however, if one looked closely, one would find that there was a hint of interest in gossip hidden in her calm eyes.
