Chapter 154 The Movie Emperor and His Little Wife Who "Rewarded" Him with a Big Slap!

But Xia Mian thought again, it's unlikely that thugs and foreign warlords would get along with Officer Qin, given their opposing identities!

So Yan Xun probably isn't some big shot, right?

Xia Mian's gaze finally fell on the couple, and upon closer inspection, she froze.

Extremely surprised, "The great movie star Qi?"

Isn't that Qi Jingfeng? The newly crowned Best Actor, whose popularity is so high that almost everyone in the entertainment industry can only look up to him.

Isn't he... isn't he unmarried? I heard he was on a bizarre dating reality show a while ago, and it got a lot of buzz.

On that dating reality show, he and a female celebrity embroiled in scandals seemed to be going at it eighty times a day.

"Qi Jingfeng, cough, this is my wife Jiang Ruoqin." Qi Jingfeng held Jiang Ruoqin's hand and shook it, looking like a devoted husband, with a smile in his eyes.

Jiang Ruoqin was very beautiful. Xia Mian looked her over and felt like she had heard her name somewhere before. It seemed so familiar.

Jiang Ruoqin noticed Xia Mian staring at her and her eyes crinkled into a smile. "Oh, I'm the female celebrity who appeared on the dating reality show with him."

Xia Mian was completely dumbfounded!

She secretly thought to herself that she definitely had to watch that dating reality show to see just how good the two actors' acting was on that show.

They are enemies outside, but husband and wife at home.

Her eyes widened suddenly. "You...you're husband and wife. Is it any of my business to know that?"

Aren't they afraid she'll leak the news? And ruin their public image?

"It's alright. We've been childhood friends since we were little, growing up together in the military compound. What secrets don't we know about each other?" Qi Jingfeng chuckled and squeezed Jiang Ruoqin's hand. "Ruoqin is like a little sister who's always been following us around since we were little."

"Sister?" Xia Mian was even more shocked. So Jiang Ruoqin has a powerful political background? And a group of older brothers of different surnames who grew up together?

"Then how come you were able to be slandered like that?"

Jiang Ruoqin touched her pert little nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

"My family wanted me to inherit the family business, but I had no interest! So I entered the entertainment industry, vowing to reform it..."

"Of course my family objected! So I ran away from home and temporarily cut ties with them. So I could only start by acting in short dramas and playing minor roles..."

There are also some haters who think Jiang Ruoqin is an unknown nobody with no background, so they bully her relentlessly, and the entertainment company she signed with is also incompetent.

Not only did they remain indifferent to her being attacked online, but they also told her that being attacked online is a kind of happiness, and that others who want to be attacked online can't!

Black and red are still red!

After listening to Jiang Ruoqin's explanation, Xia Mian became even more curious. "So which company is yours? I need to be careful! I minored in music performance, so I'll have to keep my eyes peeled."

“Xia’s Entertainment.” Jiang Ruoqin said as soon as she spoke.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward, and Xia Mian gave a dry laugh.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

So it's the Xia family!

"Since it's Xia's Entertainment, then it suddenly becomes understandable that an agent could say such morally reprehensible things. After all, from the leaders to the subordinates, none of them have any proper values."

Jiang Ruoqin's eyes widened. "This is your brothers' company... I thought you'd be angry if I said bad things about them!"

"He's not my brother anymore, we've been estranged for a long time!" Xia Mian laughed decisively, changing the subject, "I heard that the web series you starred in is going to be broadcast on TV?"

“Yes!” Jiang Ruoqin took Xia Mian’s hand and led her into the castle. “I’m the second female lead. Going on TV won’t be a big boost to my career.”

Xia Mian didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry in her previous life. She only vaguely remembered that Jiang Ruoqin was never famous and was always being criticized.

But then she suddenly remembered that she had produced many hit dramas in her past life.

When she was desperate, she wrote a few short drama scripts and submitted them to earn extra money. Unfortunately, the dramas were only released on the platform shortly before her death, and they received an unprecedented response and became extremely popular, even making the male and female leads famous.

But she was already dead and didn't receive any dividends.

With that thought in mind, Xia Mian made up her mind.

Fu Yanshen and several tall men followed behind the two girls, watching them chat happily, while simultaneously showing puzzled expressions.

"They seem to know each other quite well..." Qin Heyao said, puzzled. "Didn't they just meet?"

"Girls seem to be naturally good at communicating with each other." Qi Jingfeng smiled indulgently as he looked at Jiang Ruoqin's back. "Have you forgotten? Back in school, girls always held hands when they went to the bathroom."

Boys wouldn't do that!

"It does resemble that feeling quite a bit." Fu Yanshen nodded, thinking that Xia Mian and Jiang Ruoqin looked a lot like his female classmates from his school days.

The castle is spacious and exudes luxury in every aspect.

The medieval decor, paired with master paintings hanging on the walls, makes you feel as if you've stepped into the mansion of a European nobleman from centuries ago.

As the sun sets, freshly picked flowers decorate the living room in a romantic and beautiful way.

The butler came over and said that dinner was ready.

So the young masters and the two girls walked together through the long corridor and came to the restaurant.

Xia Mian raised an eyebrow, looking at the seafood feast laid out on the long dining table. Surrounded by water, eating seafood seemed perfectly natural.

The servants thoughtfully shelled and shucked all the seafood, then arranged it elegantly on plates and served it to each person.

Xia Mian put the foie gras into her mouth and could feel its smooth and rich texture in her mouth. The light fragrance mixed with the tender taste was delicious!

Fresh oysters, served with vinegar or a few drops of lemon, and a dash of chili sauce.

Freshly caught oysters from the sea have a wonderful ocean flavor.

Take a bite, and the salty taste of the seawater bursts onto your tongue in an instant.

It bursts open like a popping candy!

After being carefully prepared, the snails are even more tender and soft. Paired with a little butter, they are not greasy at all, but rather fresh and natural.

The duck breast, carefully marinated by the grapevines, is crispy on the outside and fragrant on the inside. Paired with a vintage red wine from the castle, it's absolutely divine!

Jiang Ruoqin took photos of dinner, and then took a selfie with Xia Mian.

"Mianmian, can I post our photos together on Weibo or Douyin?"

"Of course." Xia Mian nodded, feeling that it was a small matter and not worth mentioning.

"Great!" Jiang Ruoqin started editing the photo.

Actually, both she and Xia Mian are beauties, and they look great even in their original photos.

However, she still edited it a little, making the skin brighter and adding a filter style.

"I'll post it in a few days. Let's film more while we're here." Jiang Ruoqin smiled, her eyes curving into crescents. "I'll edit a short video compilation or something later."

Hearing that Jiang Ruoqin was planning to take a lot of photos with Xia Mian.

The actor's face immediately darkened, and he slammed his knife and fork down with a loud bang.
