Chapter 159 Never Give Up

"What's the matter? What did my mother-in-law say?" Jiang Yiyu asked.

Song Shengsheng clicked on the photo sent by Su Bei and burst out laughing. She handed the phone to Jiang Yiyu: "Your new father-in-law is 30 years old. He works in the system. He has a car, a house, and savings. He is stable and very outstanding."

Jiang Yiyu glanced at them, then frowned with a smile: "Is this how you girls show each other your partner's photos? There's no step-by-step process, just swimsuit photos! This is too much of a disregard for you as an outsider."

Song Shengsheng took back the phone: "What's the big deal? I'm not the only one who has seen your abs."

Jiang Yiyu stopped talking.

Song Shengsheng chatted with Su Bei for a few more words and sighed: "I hope the person she meets this time is reliable."

"Of course there's no problem. Anyway, I think this guy has a decent face, with three parts of the face and five eyes, a nose and eyes, nothing wrong with him."

"Brother Yi Yu, listen to yourself, what are you talking about? Everyone has eyes and noses."

Jiang Yiyu chuckled and continued driving.

After returning home, Song Shengsheng ordered hot pot takeout, and Jiang Yiyu found a movie. The two of them ate hot pot while watching the movie. Since they didn't have to join the crew after the New Year, Jiang Yiyu didn't care about his diet and ate too much for once.

The two of them huddled together in chairs, staring blankly at the hot pot that was still bubbling.

After a long while, Song Shengsheng reached out and took the remaining half cup of Coke and took a sip, then bumped arms with Jiang Yiyu: "You can take it, I don't want to move anymore."

Jiang Yiyu glanced at her and yawned: "I don't want to move either. I just want to be a beautiful loser. Living off others is my greatest pursuit."

Song Shengsheng smiled and leaned her head on his shoulder: "Isn't it a coincidence? I have always felt that being a rice bug is very happy since I was a child."

"You are different. You have your own pursuits in life."

"Who hasn't?"

"As for me, mine has been fulfilled, and my pursuit is now relying on me."

Song Shengsheng tutted disdainfully: "You are used to coaxing me."

Jiang Yiyu smiled and yawned again: "Actually, if I could get into a film crew after the new year, I would really like to give my acting career another try. Unfortunately, no matter how good the conversation is, the director and producer have their own casting principles, and this opportunity does not belong to me."

"If Zhao Rong's mother and brother hadn't caused that scene in front of your studio, would you have been able to join the crew?"

Jiang Yiyu smiled and said, "You can't get in either. You forgot there's also Jiang Yuan. His case is social news, so it should be considered social news, right? Anyway, it's serious enough to be on TV news. He and I have the same last name. The internet has memory, so it's impossible not to be affected."

Song Shengsheng sighed, held his hand and patted it: "Fortunately, you don't rely solely on acting to make a living, otherwise you really wouldn't be able to make a living."

"It's okay, I have a wife. And Wen Jing has already made plans. The studio has signed new people. Although I haven't been able to bring them to many occasions, I think they have good qualifications and are down-to-earth people. They should be able to do well in the future."

"You've been mentally prepared."

"Yes, ever since Jin Beisheng first mentioned the feud between Jiang Yuan and the Lin family to me, I thought this day would come. It just so happens that I just took over the Jiang family's mess, so this year will definitely be very busy. After the new year, the professional manager will take over, and I will be able to relax a little, but I don't think it will be much easier.

You're also going to take the doctoral exam this year, so the pressure must be enormous. I'm staying home with you. I can't say how much I can help you with that burden, but when you come home and see me every day, even if you just complain to me, rant, or yell at me when you're upset, it can help you relax a bit, which is a benefit."

"I can't bear to part with it." Song Shengsheng pinched his knuckles. "When I think about how Mr. Jiang's great face will be mine for a long time to come, I'm a little flattered."

Jiang Yiyu smiled and moved closer to her: "Then do you want to do something to this great face? Like, give it a kiss?"

Song Shengsheng held his face and said, "No, it smells like hot pot."

Jiang Yiyu smiled and kissed the corner of her lips: "I don't dislike you."

Song Shengsheng tilted her neck back and covered his mouth: "I despise you."

"Tsk, I was saying you've been so busy lately that you haven't been able to further your relationship, so it's become dull! You're so heartless! My young mother-in-law is still touching her boyfriend's abs in the government, and you? We're an old married couple, so you don't have any feelings for me anymore, right? If that's the case with you, I won't work out anymore. No matter how good I am, no one will appreciate it. It's boring."

He leaned his head against the top of Song Shengsheng's head and held her hand in return: "Dear, there won't be so many people who like me in the future. You have to give me more love, otherwise I will be very lacking in love and will be sad."

"Being spoiled again."

"Be quiet, dear, do you hear me? Answer me, I want to hear a positive answer."

"Tell me, what should I say?"

"Come and repeat after me, I'm Song Shengsheng."

"I'm Song Shengsheng."

"I will always like Jiang Yiyu."

"I will always like Jiang Yiyu."

"For richer or poorer, in sickness or health, he will always be with me."

"Whether rich or poor, healthy or sick, I will always love him and will always be with him."

When their eyes met, Jiang Yiyu's peach blossom eyes curved into small crescents: "Jiang Yiyu is the same."

After saying that, he kissed her.

Tonight's kiss tastes like hot pot.

After the new year, Jiang Yiyu became completely busy as he said, and Song Shengsheng was also busy studying, writing papers and publishing them, trying his best to lay the foundation for his academic career.
