Gentle and virtuous Song Yi harbors a secret: years ago, when she was desperate, she sought help from a man. She witnessed his wildness and endured his disdain.
She thought they would never m...
Chapter 378 I am more promising than you
When Song Yi was curious, Zhou Qisheng asked for her, "Who is this?"
"Bai Ruan." Jiang Budu only introduced the other party's name, but did not say what their relationship was.
Obviously, Zhou Qisheng was asking the latter.
But because the woman was present, and considering the other party's face, Zhou Qisheng finally did not ask that question.
When Jiang Budu said this name, Song Yi remembered why he felt that she looked familiar - Bai Ruan was a young actress born in the 2000s who was very popular recently. She starred in a highly rated urban drama during the summer vacation.
The character she played in the film had no emotional line, but had a clear mind and a brilliant personality. She seemed sweet but was actually ruthless in killing people, which attracted many fans.
Because the drama was very popular, Song Yi had seen many clips online and had some impression of this face.
But before this drama, Song Yi had never heard of Bai Ruan. As soon as the drama was broadcast, Bai Ruan became an instant hit and got all kinds of resources. A few days ago, he seemed to have seen news that she was going to work with a big director.
Song Yi was not willing to make malicious assumptions about others. The fact that Jiang Budu brought Bai Ruan to such an occasion was enough to show that their relationship was not simple.
Jiang Budu has a rich social history and has been in the entertainment industry before.
Originally, it was none of her business who Jiang Budu looked for, but in this situation—
Song Yi thought of Tang Qing who was going to have surgery on Saturday, and then thought of Jiang Budu's previous plan and threats against Tang Qing. His fists were hardened, and the look he gave him unconsciously carried a hint of murderous intent.
Fu Xijing saw Song Yi's emotions, held her hand under the table to comfort her, and then looked at Jiang Budu, asking him with his eyes: What the hell are you doing?
Jiang Budu did not respond to Fu Xijing, but pulled Bai Ruan beside him to sit down.
Bai Ruan is very well-behaved. She has had a smile on her face since she appeared.
After sitting down next to Jiang Budu, she politely poured him a glass of wine, and then poured for the other people at the table.
When it was Song Yi's turn, Bai Ruan switched to juice.
Although Song Yi was angry, she knew that the problem was not with Bai Ruan, so she did not make things difficult for her.
After Bai Ruan finished pouring wine for everyone at the table, he returned to his seat, picked up his glass and introduced himself to everyone at the table: "Hello everyone, I am Bai Ruan. It is an honor to have the opportunity to sit and dine with you. Please take care of me."
Her voice is also very sweet, and it matches her face perfectly.
You can tell at first glance that he is the type who is very good at dealing with people and is probably very comfortable in social situations.
"Don't be angry," Fu Xijing lowered his head and leaned close to Song Yi's ear, "I'll talk to him later."
Song Yi clenched her fists tightly. She now had the urge to beat Jiang Budu up - if the occasion was not inappropriate, she would probably have done so already.
"The media over there are watching you." Fu Xijing reminded Song Yi, "If you act like this, they will think we had a fight. Be good and don't get angry yet."
After being reminded by Fu Xijing, Song Yi glanced towards the media area and tried hard to control his expression.
To others, the two of them were just whispering. Bai Ruan smiled and praised them, "Miss Song and Mr. Fu have such a good relationship! They are so happy."
I have to say that Bai Ruan is a very sweet-talker and knows how to please people.
She knew that Fu Xijing placed Song Yi in a very high position, so she deliberately put Song Yi first, which made Fu Xijing very satisfied.
The arrangement of these details cannot be done without rich experience. Bai Ruan is very good at this, and men happen to be attracted by this, so it is no wonder that Jiang Budu brought her here.
…
When the meal was almost over, Fu Xijing found an excuse to call Jiang Budu to the terrace.
Song Yi knew what they were going to say, but ignored them and sat at the table waiting for Fu Xijing to come back.
After Jiang Budu left, Bai Ruan began to talk to Song Yi non-stop. She had a cheerful personality, was talkative, and good at praising people. Her reason told Song Yi that she should maintain basic courtesy, but she couldn't do it emotionally.
So she basically ignored Bai Ruan.
Bai Ruan was such a smart person that she realized that Song Yi didn't like her very much, so she just kept quiet.

Terrace.
Fu Xijing and Jiang Budu stopped at the railing together, folded their arms around their chests and looked him up and down, their brows tightly furrowed.
Jiang Budu met his gaze, "What's with that look?"
Fu Xijing: "What did that woman mean just now?"
Jiang Budu: "The company recently signed a co-star actress."
Fu Xijing: "Did the company sign it or did you sign it?"
Jiang Budu: "It's just a casual affair, normal."
Fu Xijing: "Psycho."
Jiang Budu: "Why are you still making personal attacks? Did I provoke you?"
Fu Xijing: "You didn't listen to a word I said to you a few days ago."
He didn't like repeating the same thing too many times. "In that case, you should let Tang Qing go as soon as possible and don't waste her time."
Jiang Budu didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly he laughed a few times.
"She's such a heartless person, it's a pain to keep her around. You're right, let her go as soon as possible." Jiang Budu said, "There are plenty of women in the world who can make me happy."
Fu Xijing glanced at Jiang Budu. From his sarcastic tone, he thought he was provoked by Tang Qing again. "Have you proposed marriage to her?"
The river is silent without crossing it.
Fu Xijing: "Rejected?"
Jiang Budu sneered: "Why get married? Who cares?"
Fu Xijing: "You'd better be."
Jiang Budu: "She's not a good choice either. I won't rush into it that hard. Even if I really don't care about family background, I still have to find someone who can make me happy."
Fu Xijing: "I'll return what you said to me before: You're so stubborn."
Jiang Budu: "I'm not only tough in words, but also in heart. I'm more capable than you."
Fu Xijing didn't argue with him: "Oh."
He glanced at his watch and said, "Then I'll go back to see my girlfriend."
Jiang Budu gritted his teeth. Why was he showing off to him at this time?
——
In the activities that night, apart from the couple Shen Zheng and Lu Dai, the most popular people were Fu Xijing and Song Yi.
The next day's media reports included many photos of Song Yi and Fu Xijing.
Most of the photos show Fu Xijing hugging Song Yi, either tidying her clothes or feeding her. He is so considerate.
The media also specifically introduced Song Yi's background in the news. Public opinion almost unanimously said that the two of them were a good match, and they all sent their blessings, with no one to find fault with them.
Mixed in between these news items were a few rumors about Jiang Budu and Bai Ruan.
Bai Ruan has been very popular recently, and when she appeared in such an occasion with Jiang Budu, the media naturally reported it with exaggeration.
When Song Yi saw the news, he couldn't help but worry about Tang Qing's condition.
She's about to have surgery, and seeing the news at this time... will definitely affect her mood.
Song Yi was very worried, but he couldn't ask directly.
When she was struggling, Ying Xing sent her a private message.
Ying Xing: [Fuck that dirty cucumber Jiang Budu, he'll die without a woman, right?]
