Su Chen returned ho just as Lin Ruoxue had finished her work and was also back in the bedroom.
"Honey, should we shower together to save water?"
Su Chen looked at Lin Ruoxue, who was about to walk into the bathroom, and said fawningly.
Lin Ruoxue just gave him a cold look, then pushed the bathroom door open and walked in.
Save water, huh — this jerk is getting more shaless by the day!
After catching that look, Su Chen could only touch his nose awkwardly and then throw off his coat and lie on the bed.
Having lived with Lin Ruoxue for a while now, he's beco very hygienic.
In the past, he wouldn't care about things like this. Who was he kidding?!
After Lin Ruoxue finished showering, it was Su Chen's turn, and then the two turned off the lights and went to bed...
As for what happened after the lights went out, that's not sothing that needs to be shared...
The next morning, the two ca downstairs looking full of energy.
After breakfast, they and Yan Xi drove to the company together.
Yan Xi was increasingly resembling a freshly graduated urban white-collar worker, learning things quickly and taking on many responsibilities.
At the company, Su Chen naturally fell into his usual routine — a cup of tea, a magazine, and his legs propped up on the desk.
Once, Lin Ruoxue walked in and happened to see this. She said, "You don't look like a departnt head at all, more like a grandpa!"
Su Chen smoothly replied, "Co, give grandpa a leg massage!"
To this, Lin Ruoxue rolled her eyes and walked out.
.....
While Su Chen was pretending to be a grandpa, in a high-end apartnt in Yandu,
there were two won in the room — one in her twenties, sitting on the sofa, and the other around forty, but very well-preserved and looking smart and capable.
At this mont, the woman in her forties was pacing back and forth in the room, almost unable to stop. Even if she did stop, she would start moving again within two seconds!
Her face was a little flushed, not for any other reason but sheer excitent!
She clutched a phone tightly in her hand.
"Sister Qin, can you please stop pacing back and forth?"
The young woman on the sofa said helplessly:
"You've been making so many laps that you're making my head spin!"
"Headache? That's nothing! Sister Qin is so excited right now I could explode!"
Sister Qin imdiately responded upon hearing the young woman's words:
"Do you know who that was? Director Caron! He's an absolute legend in the film industry!"
"Can you believe it? Such a bigshot speaking so nicely to , probably even more politely than he would to so of the ga-stars in Hollywood's ten-million-dollar club!"
"And it doesn't stop there; do you know who called just now? Mr. Jas, the owner of the largest theater chain in the US! He said he would personally receive us when we arrive in the US!"
"What kind of treatnt is this? Do you know what this ans? My silly girl!"
"Sister Qin, you've said all this more than ten tis in the past couple of hours!"
The young woman pursed her lips and said, though she too was incredibly stunned inside!
Right now, a man's image completely filled her mind!
Honestly, before it was confird, she had her doubts!
She never thought he would actually pull it off!
Even more shocking was that Mr. Jas, the biggest theater chain owner in the US, said he would personally accompany her! She felt like her soul was about to leave her body!
At the sa ti, she grew more curious. Who exactly was he to have such influence abroad?
"Xiao Ying, when you turned down the TV interview yesterday, Sister Qin was almost infuriated with you!"
Sister Qin said:
"I didn't expect you to bring back such an earth-shaking piece of news afterward!"
"Given the invaluable resources you've secured, the company is taking it very seriously. The boss has already said the company will leverage all its resources to support you in this!"
The boss at Jiang Ying's company wasn't foolish; he knew exactly what this opportunity ant!
This was a milestone for the company!
Reputation, wealth, resources, connections — all of these were part of the opportunity Jiang Ying had secured. Of course, he had to give full support!
"Tell , how did you manage this?"
Sister Qin imdiately sat down beside Jiang Ying, staring at her intently as she asked.
She was genuinely curious how such a miraculous stroke of luck had co about!
"It was introduced by a friend."
Jiang Ying said in response to Sister Qin's question.
"What kind of person is this friend of yours to have such vast influence? And you went out to et him yesterday?"
At this mont, Sister Qin looked like a gossip journalist!
"Well, actually, I don't know him too well. We've only t a few tis."
"How is that possible?"
Sister Qin imdiately said, then looked at Jiang Ying with suspicion:
"You don't have that kind of relationship with him, do you? But if he can bring you such opportunities, it's worth it."
Having spent twenty years in the entertainnt circle, Sister Qin had seen it all.
"Sister Qin, it's not what you think. We're really just normal friends!"
Of course, Jiang Ying knew what Sister Qin ant. She shook her head and sighed:
"Actually, he probably doesn't even find attractive."
"Not find you attractive? How is that possible? Jiang Ying, with your qualities, how could anyone not?"
"Compared to his wife, my looks really don't count for much."
Jiang Ying said sowhat self-pityingly.
In fact, she was underestimating herself. While she may not quite compare to Lin Ruoxue, the difference wasn't too great.
If she wasn't remarkable, she wouldn't be hailed as the national goddess!
Sister Qin believed Jiang Ying's words and was convinced there was nothing between them.
Having managed Jiang Ying for several years, she knew her well!
"Hearing you say this makes curious about your friend. He seems quite extraordinary!"
Sister Qin laughed and said:
"I've been in this industry for so many years, and I've never seen soone like him!"
"He really is quite special!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ying smiled slightly, her lips curling into a beautiful arc!
"Do you like him?!"
Sister Qin couldn't help asking, her tone part questioning and part certain.
Jiang Ying didn't deny it; she nodded lightly and looked a bit sad.
"Don't be sad. Even if you're not in that kind of relationship, the fact that he's helped you like this makes him a very worthwhile friend!"
Sister Qin said:
"Worthwhile, not in terms of value, but in terms of sentint."
"Mm."
That statent made her feel comforted. Yes, at least he considered her a friend!
