Chapter 51

The two were chatting and Zhang Yafang came over in a hurry to inform them, “Lunch is ready!”

Chu Chu, who was portraying dreams in a serious manner a second ago, got up and went straight to the dining table.

Zhang Yafang was good at Sichuan-Chongqing cuisine.

Chu Chu had long been looking forward to lunch.

Zhang Jianian watched President Chu rush to eat, only to feel that the inspiring speech was like an illusion.

After a while, Zhang Jianian came to the dinner table and looked at the table full of spicy food. He was at a loss as to what to pick with his chopsticks. He asked weakly, “Is there anything lighter?”

Ms. Zhang Yafang pushed the bowl towards him and said casually, “Drink porridge since you are sick!”

Zhang Jianian saw the boiled fish and stir-fried cabbage on the table and then looked down at the porridge. He had grown up so far well without being autistic. It was a miracle in human psychology.

Chu Chu said, “I should have asked to make something light…”

Zhang Yafang said to stop her, “Don’t pay attention to him. A patient must not be picky. He really thinks he is a young master!”

Zhang Jianian: “…”

Zhang Jianian: Are you my real mother? Even a stepmother can’t be cruel like that.

During the meal, Zhang Jianian drank porridge silently and acted as a background board. The outstanding eloquent President Chu coaxed Ms. Zhang Yafang into a heart-bonding relationship. The two built a friendship. It was the first time that he saw President Chu being so friendly. If she wanted to make friends with others, no one could resist.

Chu Chu tasted the tender and fragrant boiled fish and wanted to kneel down to Zhang Yafang on the spot, “It’s so delicious, I just want to exchange parents with Zhang Jianian…”

What was the use of Chu Yanyin sitting on Gold and Silver mountains? He couldn’t make such delicious boiled fish!

Zhang Yafang triumphantly said, “You can come again if you want to eat it!”

Zhang Jianian: “…”

Zhang Jianian thought that his mother was too innocent and her polite remarks could be taken seriously. President Chu ate in expensive places, so how would she care about home cooking? However, President Chu gave Zhang Yafang so much face. Zhang Jianian naturally appreciated that. If he revealed President Chu’s true identity, Zhang Yafang would probably be scared to death.

Before leaving, President Chu and Zhang Yafang had established a profound revolutionary friendship. Zhang Yafang also took President Chu’s hand and solemnly promised, “Don’t worry, I will let Jianian bring you the vine pepper oil when it is sent from my hometown!”

“Good, good, this is a perfect match for noodles!” Chu Chu was moved by Zhang Yafang’s hospitality that even tears filled her eyes.

Zhang Jianian watched the scene numbly and a moving picture of the Red Army and fellow villagers sending food to each other emerged in his mind.

After President Chu left, Zhang Yafang, who had found his confidant, praised her to the sky and she kept sighing, “Xiao Chu is really a simple and kind hardworking girl. There are not many young people like that. Look at you, doing nothing all day long…”

Zhang Jianian: “…”

He really didn’t understand, why did she say that President Chu was simple, kind and hardworking?

Zhang Jianian: Perhaps only by wearing watches of millions and driving the luxury cars tens of millions could he achieve the simplicity and freshness that Zhang Yafang said.

Zhang Jianian’s illness came and went quickly. As soon as he was disturbed by the visiting President Chu, he forgot about the hidden sexual harassment in the workplace. People were really strange creatures. Once they change their opinions on someone, they would bring their own filters and subconsciously rationalize many things. President Chu’s grand plan for Yinda diluted Zhang Jianian’s doubts and entanglements, so that he did not go into many details.

Of course, this was also due to him being too busy lately.

In accordance with the requirements of President Chu, Chenxing Film and Television re-selected ten young artists and began long-term training. Xia Xiaoxiao watched the trainee’s progress as usual and walked to her office, but was stopped by someone, “Sister Xiaoxiao!”

Xia Xiaoxiao smiled when she saw Ming Fan, who was full of youth. He had just finished practicing. His forehead was still stained with sweat. His smile was sunny as he cheerfully said, “Thank you sister!”

“It’s nothing, I didn’t do anything…” Xia Xiaoxiao was actually not very old, but the trainees were even younger. For example, Ming Fan was only 18 or 19 years old. Nowadays, the competition among artists was fierce and age had become an advantage.

Xia Xiaoxiao had been watching the trainees occasionally recently and gradually got to know ten boys. Ming Fan was the more lively and enthusiastic one. Logically, Xia Xiaoxiao would appreciate this type of sunshine person before, but now she didn’t know if she was influenced by Yinda’s sisters, she was a little wary of Ming Fan.

Xia Xiaoxiao felt that it wasn’t good to treat interpersonal relationships based on workplace ethics, but Ming Fan always said something that seemed to be ridiculous. Xia Xiaoxiao’s perception was relatively slow, but other staff members discussed it several times.

“Sister Xiaoxiao, you staying next to us is the biggest inspiration for us!” Ming Fan smiled, scratched his head and asked casually, “I heard that President Chu is coming to see our training. Is that true?”

Xia Xiaoxiao raised her eyes and asked, “Who told you that?”

Xia Xiaoxiao wasn’t sensitive to other things, but was extremely sensitive to President Chu’s affairs. Never underestimate the fan’s care for idols.

Ming Fan didn’t expect Xia Xiaoxiao to react that way and said, “I heard what other trainees said…”

“I don’t know if President Chu is coming,” Xia Xiaoxiao said frankly.

As President Chu was so busy, no one could guarantee that she would come.

Ming Fan was a little surprised and blurted out, “Didn’t you work in Yinda before? Why don’t you know?”

Xia Xiaoxiao frowned  and said, “How do you know that?”

The trainee who just came to know that she was from Yinda was really weird.
