Chapter 383
He knew it was Qian Lan, but she looked more and more like Chen Hui
The movie continues, and the plot soon comes to the lives of Shen Hui and Qian Lan after they exchanged identities.
In ancient times, Granny Liu visited a large manor, and today, Qian Lan visits one of Shen Hui’s mansions.
Yes, just one of them. Chen Hui's description of it was not "home" but a house in a certain area.
In the city center where every inch of land is valuable, Shen Hui has the tallest large flat, the best view and the widest space. Whenever she wanted, she could stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and overlook the city.
Chen Hui: "At this moment, everyone is under your feet. Do you like this feeling?"
Her voice is still so bewitching, sounds very soft, and can really touch a string in people's hearts, making you nod in cooperation involuntarily.
Qian Lan couldn't help but put her hands on the glass, but when she felt Chen Hui's gaze, she withdrew her hands as if she had been electrocuted.
She awkwardly tried to wipe the fingerprints off the glass, but it only left a bigger mark.
"Don't be nervous." Chen Hui said softly, "This is not your fault, it's the glass's problem. There is no glass in the world that doesn't leave marks when touched. These inventors are really useless."
Qian Lan let out a cry.
She felt that this was wrong, and she wanted to say something...but under Shen Hui's gaze, the hesitation on her face slowly faded away, turning into an excitement that was eager to try.
Qian Lan did not answer the question just now, but all the audience knew her answer.
She likes this feeling, very much.
She danced in front of the mirror in Shen Hui's dressing room and rolled around on the big bed in the bedroom; she tried out all the cutting-edge smart home appliances in the house and arranged for the chef to prepare more than a dozen dishes for a state banquet.
She swiped her card crazily in the mall and would mention Chen Hui's name in every luxury store, enjoying the store clerks' respectful and gentle flattery towards her.
Moreover, rather than closing the store for receptions and watching the model show in the VIP room, she would rather show herself in front of ordinary customers.
Qian Lan also attended several banquets. Before leaving, she nervously called Shen Hui for help, asking her what preparations she should make and whether there were any taboos in dealing with different people.
Shen Hui only replied with one sentence: "No need to change for anyone, that's what they should do."
This statement was fully verified on the spot - Qian Lan was not used to drinking champagne, so all the drinks in the venue were replaced with juice and yogurt; she mispronounced a word in English, and everyone praised her for her sense of humor; she almost fell down while wearing high heels, and the shoe immediately became a blacklist product in the upper class circle, and the brand boss flew from abroad in person to apologize to her, and his tone was very humble.
Chen Hui is always right, and no one knows this better than Qian Lan at this moment.
Even when she accidentally heard the name of her former company from others (Chen Hui had already resigned for her), she just frowned and muttered "I don't like it". Not long after, someone tactfully took credit for it in her opinion, saying that the company was no longer doing well.
Qian Lan was very happy, she was immersed in this euphoric state. Even when she read complaints about colleagues suddenly losing their jobs on WeChat Moments, it did not have much impact on her mood.
She just froze for a moment, hesitated for a second, and something seemed to flash across her eyes. But when the camera turned, when the housekeeper handed her an invitation to a high-end fashion brand's show, her attention was quickly diverted and she no longer cared about these trivial matters.
Chen Yuening looked at Qian Lan in the movie - he could still clearly recognize that it was Qian Lan, but she was becoming more and more like Chen Hui.
So, when he played Jia Ming, Chen Hui's fiancé, on the stage, he had no doubt about his identity at all. Even if her attitude was a little better, he would understand that Shen Hui was in a good mood today.
However, Jia Ming's appearance still dealt Qian Lan a heavy blow. In her logic, she can wear Shen Hui's clothes, wear her jewelry, splurge with the bank card she gave her, and enjoy the attention of fans with his status, but she can never marry Shen Hui's fiancé, right?
She is Qian Lan, not Chen Hui, and she wants to return this kind of life to others.
This psychological analysis was discussed by Ling Suisui and Chen Yuening at that time. When she was reading the script, she considered how Jia Ming's appearance had driven Qian Lan's psychological transformation.
She wanted Jia Ming to fall in love with her - she knew 100% that doing so would definitely offend Shen Hui, so why would she dare to take such a risk? What was she thinking at this stage?
Chen Yuening once joked that maybe Qian Lan fell in love with him at first sight, but Ling Suisui said that there was no such possibility.
Indeed not... As the actor who played Jia Ming, Chen Yuening only then realized how many things Ling Suisui had performed on the set that he didn't know about.
When acting with him face to face, Qian Lan's eyes could be very passionate, but when she turned her back to him, Qian Lan's smile froze, her eyes changed, and her whole temperament became uneasy and anxious.
Chen Yuening really wanted to fall backwards. He knew Ling Suisui was a good actor, but he didn't expect that she would have to play the role of a good actor in the play! Both Chen Hui and Qian Lan!
Well... Compared with the movie queen Ling Suisui, Qian Lan's performance was actually full of flaws, but Chen Yuening understood it all at the time as her feeling guilty and afraid of being discovered...
A play within a play, an act within an act, this kind of performance style that even makes the co-workers fall into the trap, only Ling Sui can handle it.
Qian Lan was praised to the highest position in the world, yet she was also surrounded by the fear that she would fall from the clouds at any time. She had to try her best to grab Jia Ming, this piece of driftwood, this life-saving straw.
Qian Lan's mentality was up and down like a roller coaster, and Shen Hui, who had her status, was not in a much better mood than her.
Everything went smoothly for Chen Hui at the beginning. She quit her job and gave up Qian Lan's rental house. After submitting several resumes and attending several interviews that were not satisfactory, she simply returned to the small county town where Qian Lan's family lived. Instead of going home, she used Qian Lan's savings to rent a villa and let the Qian family live in it.
When she acted like a wealthy woman returning home in glory, looked at people with her chin, and spoke to the Qian family in an imperative tone, they were completely shocked by this daughter whom they hadn't seen for several years. After coming to their senses and accepting that “this is what successful people are like,” they began eagerly looking forward to sharing her wealth.
Where there is desire, there will be weakness, and Chen Hui will easily take advantage of it.
But this kind of control was limited to using them as free labor for her and completing some trivial tasks that she was too lazy to do. When she asked them to take out their savings to help her raise some initial capital for starting a business, the Qian family's attitude immediately changed.
At first, Shen Hui thought that their financial management ideas were very conservative and they were unwilling to try any method other than saving, but after careful investigation, she found that the Qian family really had no money.
She felt that she had lowered her requirements to the extreme, and the initial capital only required 100,000 yuan. However, after searching through the Qian family's cash assets, she could not even come up with 5,000 yuan.
The objective conditions were so restrictive that Shen Hui never dreamed that the first pot of gold of just 100,000 yuan would be a trouble for her.
She turned her attention to the Internet and financial markets - she created a small program and invested the rest of her savings in stocks and funds. Although her mini program was priced down by big companies and she didn't earn much interest due to her small capital, she finally made 100,000 yuan in seven days.
Shen Hui was very dissatisfied with this money-making efficiency, but there were still many difficulties waiting for her on the road to "passing the game".
