Chapter 186 Xuejian or Longkui
The waiting hall of Donghai Airport is bustling with people coming and going in a hurry.
Cai Yinong stood at the airport entrance, his eyes searching the exit from time to time.
After a while, the familiar figure of Liu Shishi came into view.
She wore a fashionable baseball cap with the brim slightly pulled down. Although her pretty face was covered by a black mask, it could not conceal the elegant temperament emanating from her body.
He was dragging a small suitcase and walking lightly, accompanied by his assistant Jiang Yuanyuan, the two of them chatting and laughing all the way.
"Shishi!" Cai Yinong had sharp eyes and recognized his elder sister at the first sight. He waved his hand and walked quickly to meet her.
Liu Shishi smiled sweetly, gave Cai Yinong a warm hug, and said softly, "Long time no see, Sister K."
Cai Yinong gently patted Yijie on the back and responded with a smile: "Let's go, Hu Ge and Yuan Hong are waiting for you in the parking lot."
"Ah, you all come to pick me up!" Liu Shishi's face showed surprise when she heard it.
It has been half a year since they parted ways with the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" last year. They were very surprised to meet again.
In the underground parking lot of the airport, Hu Ge stood next to a business car, wearing a pair of sunglasses, looking handsome as ever. Yuan Hong paced back and forth with her head down.
"Old Hu, Old Yuan!" Liu Shishi's eyes curved into crescents: "I miss you guys so much! How are you doing these days?"
Hu Ge and Yuan Hong heard Miss Liu's clear and pleasant voice and gathered around with a smile, "Beautiful lady, we finally got you back!"
Seeing that the relationship between Tangren Sanbao was so harmonious, Cai Yinong nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's talk about it in the car!"
The seven-seater business car was packed with people and filled with laughter as it slowly drove out of the airport.
"Master, go to Fenghuang Mansion on Longhua Middle Road."
Liu Shishi gave an address, then turned to the crowd and said, "Let's go to my house first. I'll take the luggage home and then come out."
"You have a house in Donghai?" Cai Yinong asked in surprise.
When Miss Liu was in Donghai last year, she had always lived in her house. She was just thinking about whether to prepare a dormitory for Sister Yi.
Didn't I tell Sister K that I had a house in Donghai? Liu Shishi tilted her head and recalled that it seemed that she had indeed not told him.
"It has always been there! But I've never lived in the house much. My husband stayed there for a few days when he came to Donghai during the National Day holiday last year."
Yuan Hong was surprised and asked, "Phoenix Mansion! Is it the high-end residential area behind the company? I went there to ask about the housing prices last year, and they were 50,000 per square meter, which was too expensive to afford."
"It's very close to the company. My husband bought this house for me because it was close to the company and would be convenient for work in the future."
Cai Yinong looked at the scenery passing by outside the window, rolled his eyes behind Liu Shishi's back, and muttered to himself: Sister Yi starts again, calling me husband all the time, it's so infuriating.
"50,000 per square meter!" Hu Ge was also very shocked. "I must take a good look at what kind of mansion it is then! Come and visit it!"
Liu Shishi smiled and nodded: "Welcome!"
More than an hour later, everyone drove to Fenghuang Mansion. Liu Shishi opened the door with a smile and warmly invited the guests into the house.
"This is my little nest in the East China Sea."
When they stepped into the house, a spacious and bright flat came into view. The exquisite lamps and furniture all demonstrated the magnificence of this place.
Hu Ge couldn't help but laugh bitterly: "Shishi, please stop insulting us! If this is your nest, then the place we live in is not even as good as a doghouse."
Yuan Hong looked left and right, and asked with envy: "Shishi, how big is this house?"
"The property title says it's about 400 square meters, but I can't remember the exact area. My husband hired someone to buy the house, so I didn't worry about it."
"It's over 400 square meters, so this apartment would cost more than 20 million!"
Yuan Hong was extremely shocked. Although he had known that Liu Shishi's boyfriend was rich, he did not expect him to be so generous.
The key is that people are willing to spend money on Liu Shishi. No wonder the junior sister looks down on him and Hu Ge. The gap is really too big.
Cai Yinong was also surprised and doubtful when he heard this, and couldn't help but test: "Shishi, is this apartment originally in your name, or is it just for you to live in?"
Liu Shishi understood what Sister K meant and smiled sweetly: "The property title is in my name."
Although she is not a materialistic girl, how many women can refuse a mansion worth tens of millions? This gift shows that Mr. Song cares about her.
Cai Yinong, Hu Ge and Yuan Hong couldn't help but look at each other. The three of them looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
With this house and the money he invested in Tangren last time, Yijie’s boyfriend has already spent tens of millions on her. This is true love!
Cai Yinong looked Miss Liu up and down carefully. The girl had a pretty and gentle face, but other aspects were average.
I couldn't help but wonder secretly, I felt that my sister didn't seem like the kind of scheming woman who was highly resourceful and could manipulate men. Could it be that she was really lucky?
While showing the three around her home, Liu pointed to the brand new kitchenware and said, "This is the kitchen and dining room, but we've never used firewood before."
Yuan Hong kept shaking her head: "Shishi, you bought a house but don't live in it, what a waste."
Liu Shishi smiled gently and did not refute. There is still a gap between the realm of ordinary people and Mr. Song, and they cannot understand his thoughts.
After walking around the study and bedroom, Cai Yinong looked at his watch and said, "It's almost 12 o'clock. There's nothing at Shishi's house. Let's go out for dinner."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi suggested, "Why don't you call for food delivery? If you are not busy today, you can just rest and relax at my house."
Cai Yinong thought about it and nodded slightly. He felt that the atmosphere at home was good and it was convenient to talk about some things.
I can take this opportunity to discuss the matter of the heroine of "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" with Sister Yi.
The bright sunshine at noon shines into the living room through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Liu Shishi changed into light home clothes, signed for the takeaway, and placed the meals one by one on the coffee table in front of the sofa.
Everyone opened their lunch boxes one by one, and immediately the air was filled with the tempting aroma of food.
Liu Shishi opened a box of steaming rice and directly gave most of it to her assistant. She usually eats rice very well and controls her food intake.
"Everyone, try this takeaway, it tastes good. My husband and I ordered from it several times during the National Day holiday last year, and I have kept the owner's number in my memory."
Cai Yinong picked up the chopsticks and looked at the sumptuous dishes: "It does look tempting, let's indulge ourselves today and enjoy the feast."
Although she doesn't control her figure like an actress, she still pays attention to her diet and maintains her weight.
Yuan Hong was already starving. She couldn't wait to pick up the lunch box, picked up a piece of meat and put it into her mouth.
Hu Ge seemed to be taking his time, joking as he ate: "Old Yuan, you should at least pay attention to your image!"
Yuan Hong swallowed the food in her mouth and smiled nonchalantly: "Forget it outside, we are all family here, there is no need to pretend.
Right, Shishi, why are you eating so delicately? It’s not like Lao Hu and I haven’t seen you wolfing down your food. You should eat with big mouthfuls, and you’ll be happy naturally.”
When Liu Shishi heard this, she immediately got angry and retorted with her eyes wide open: "Old Yuan, you are talking nonsense! Who wolfed it down!"
Nowadays, she pays great attention to her image. Her manners and temperament are her distinctive features. It is outrageous that Yuan Hong questioned her quiet image!
Hu Ge was laughing secretly on the side, thinking that, Old Yuan, you are so naive, and you used to want to have feelings for Shishi. It's good enough that you don't offend the little junior sister.
Yuan Hong realized that she had said something wrong, so she quickly lowered her head and concentrated on eating, not daring to speak again.
Liu Shishi glanced at Hu Ge, who was gloating at the side, and cast her eyes on Cai Yinong: "Sister K, does the company have any new dramas in reserve recently?"
Although Mr. Song allowed her to lie down, she couldn't be too lazy. After resting at home for more than a month, she also wanted to film a movie and focus on her career.
Cai Yinong didn't expect that the usually inactive Yi Jie would take the initiative to ask about the new drama, and was a little caught off guard.
His mind was working at high speed, and he quickly responded, "The company is preparing to shoot a new drama."
When Liu Shishi heard this, she put down her chopsticks and asked with interest, "What type of new drama is it?"
"The Legend of Sword and Fairy III!"
Liu Shishi's eyes lit up. "The Chinese Paladin" was Lao Hu's famous work. Since Lao Hu acted in one movie, she also had to act in "The Chinese Paladin III". Only then could she be truly worthy of the title of Tangren's No. 1 Sister!
Seeing Yijie's excited expression, Cai Yinong knew that she was attracted by the drama.
Unable to think of a good response at the moment, he decided to just come clean: "Shishi, you know the Chinese Paladin series, they are all adapted from games."
Liu Shishi nodded: "Yes, I know. I have played all the games in the "Chinese Paladin" series."
Cai Yinong chose his words carefully: "Well, Xuejian knows, right? What do you think her personality is in the game?"
Miss Liu raised her little head and tried to recall: "Savage and willful, eccentric!"
Cai Yinong carefully probed: "Yes! Do you think her personality matches your image?"
When Liu Shishi heard this, she came to her senses and her eyes suddenly became fierce, and her tone was no longer as gentle as before:
"Ms. K, what do you mean? Do you think I'm not suitable for the female lead Xuejian and want to invite someone else to play the role?"
Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and Jiang Yuanyuan, who were eating with their heads down, now lowered their heads even lower, for fear of being involved.
"Shishi, don't be anxious. I didn't say I wouldn't let you play Xuejian." Cai Yinong moved closer to Sister Yi, patted her soft hands, and hurriedly comforted her:
"Here's what I think. The company will launch a vote online and let the audience choose. As long as your votes are not too bad, you will be allowed to play Xuejian."
Liu Shishi frowned in dissatisfaction. She was not stupid. The netizens' voting was too mysterious.
Besides, she is only slightly famous at the moment, and there is still a big gap between her and the first-tier actresses. If the votes are too bad, not only will she not be able to play the leading female role, but it will also be embarrassing!
After some thought, she flatly refused: "Sister K, I don't agree! I am the top sister in the company, there is no reason to give resources to outsiders. I haven't even tried it yet, how do you know I can't play Xuejian well?"
Seeing that Yijie was so persistent, Cai Yinong could only continue to persuade her earnestly: "Shishi, sometimes the leading actress may not necessarily be the most outstanding.
Think about the movie "Struggle" produced by Tengda Culture last year. In the end, Wang Luodan was the most popular. Was she the leading actress? "
Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi's expression relaxed slightly.
Cai Yinong immediately continued: "This is my plan. Your temperament and personality are very similar to Long Kui. You will play Long Kui, and then I will give her more scenes and change it to a dual female lead role."
After saying that, he winked at Brother Yi calmly, wanting him to help persuade Sister Yi.
After receiving Cai Yinong's signal, Hu Ge coughed lightly and tried to make his tone sound more sincere.
"Shishi, I think it's better for you to play Long Kui. Long Kui is the younger sister of Jing Tian, who I play. We can be said to be playing ourselves, and Long Kui has no kissing scenes in the whole play!"
Liu Shishi was hit directly in the heart by Hu Ge's words, and she was immediately conflicted. Because she cared about Mr. Song, her acting range was actually very limited, and she did not act in kissing scenes and many intimate scenes.
She could still turn down kissing scenes, but if she played Xuejian, who is a couple with Jingtian, there couldn't be no such thing as no intimate scenes.
In fact, she also likes the role of Long Kui very much, but if she doesn't play the leading female role Xue Jian, where will her face as the top actress of Tangren be?
It would have been fine if she was unknown before, but now she has played the leading female role in two hit TV series and a movie with a box office of 50 million. Naturally, she would not want to play the second female role and serve as a foil for others.
"Sister K, let me think about it!" Liu Shishi sighed. This matter really made her feel dilemma!
Cai Yinong knew that too much is as bad as too little, so he stopped talking and gave Liu Shishi some time to digest it slowly. He could feel that Yijie's heart had loosened.
"Let's not talk about "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" for now. When I record the MV tomorrow, I also want to record a song and release a single."
"Ah, Shishi, you want to record a song too?"
"Yes!"
"Shishi, being a singer is not as simple as releasing a song. You need to release at least an album and hire someone to compose the music and lyrics. It's very troublesome."
Hu Ge tried to persuade her with a look of being an experienced person, but there was actually something he didn't dare to say: he didn't think Liu Shishi had a talent for singing.
Seeing that Hu Ge misunderstood her meaning, Liu Shishi explained: "I don't want to be a singer, I just want to record a song to share with everyone. The lyrics and the song are ready."
Cai Yinong breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that Yi Ge was releasing an album was giving her a headache. If Yi Jie also wanted to be a singer, she would probably be so anxious that she would lose her hair.
"The company has ready-made recording equipment. You can sing to your heart's content tomorrow."
Hu Ge also felt relieved. Tangren had limited resources, and it was not easy for him to release an album. It was good that Yijie didn't want to be a singer.
"In the painting, you are talking with your head down..."
A melodious cell phone ringtone rang, and Liu Shishi pressed her small hand against the screen and swiped it lightly.
"Hello, is this Miss Liu?"
"I am, who are you?"
"Ms. Liu, I'm a staff member of the 4S store. The RV you ordered has arrived. I'm downstairs now. Please come down to sign for it and complete the handover procedures."
"Okay, I'll be right down, wait a moment!"
Seeing that Yijie was suddenly overjoyed, Cai Yinong asked curiously, "What's wrong, Shishi?"
Liu Shishi smiled and said, "My belated birthday present has arrived! Sister K, come downstairs with me to see my big baby."
"What is this? It's so mysterious."
Liu Shishi took Cai Yinong's arm and called her two senior brothers and the assistant: "Lao Hu, Lao Yuan, Yuan Yuan, let's go down and take a look together."
When everyone arrived downstairs, they saw a high-end RV parked in the community driveway. The metal body of the car shone with a luxurious luster in the sun, like a moving luxury palace.
When Liu Shishi saw it, she smiled and said, "This is my big baby, the birthday gift my husband gave me!"
Cai Yinong's curiosity about Yijie's boyfriend, which had originally been extinguished, was rekindled.
A luxury house and a luxury car, this is a bit too much. Since he is so rich, maybe I can ask him for money to invest in a movie!
