While Yun Shudai was lying in bed having a long phone conversation with Mr. Bai, photos of Shen Jimeng having a late-night snack with an artist in the entertainment industry were posted online.
Some netizens said the figure looked like Jiang Yi, but because the photo was blurry, they couldn't tell the difference. It's currently being hotly discussed online.
It wasn't until the next day that Yun Shudai discovered the news had already made headlines in the entertainment industry.
This is nothing new. Today she wore black straight-leg pants, a black hoodie, and a baseball cap as she went out to stock up on goods for Lao He.
Today we mainly bought rice and noodles, twenty bags of each, and two boxes of canned goods.
This time, she didn't move the goods herself; she hired two unloaders to help her carry them into her home.
I made one trip in the morning, and then went to the textile factory in the afternoon, where I bought two sewing machines and two bicycles.
In the afternoons when she had nothing to do, she would draw. She discovered several illustration competitions on the platform, as well as a call for illustrations for some intangible cultural heritage projects and a call for submissions for the successful application for intangible cultural heritage status for the Twenty-Four Solar Terms.
She had previously painted three of the twenty-four solar terms, and they received high votes. None of those paintings had been sold yet. She could definitely participate in this call for submissions and paint all twenty-four solar terms. Yes, these call for submissions and competitions all have prizes, so she could participate in all of them.
The painting continued until evening. Seeing that it was getting late, we ordered takeout and enjoyed it in our room with Lao He, who had just finished work.
Jiang Yi, who lives in the same city, was called home by her parents because of the trending topic.
The atmosphere in the Jiang family's living room was tense at this moment, and Jiang's father paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, looking angry.
Jiang's mother told Jiang Yi with a serious expression, "Our family will not accept Miss Shen as a daughter-in-law."
Although the photo of today's trending topic was blurry, Jiang Yi's parents could still make it out.
Upon learning that her son was dating Shen Jimeng, she immediately called him back home.
"What's wrong with Mengmeng? Why don't you accept her?"
"Who is she? Our family doesn't need an actress who appears in public."
Jiang Yi looked at his parents in disbelief, his brows furrowed, and said with suppressed anger, "Mom, can't you two be reasonable? Yun Shudai was okay before, but Shen Jimeng isn't?"
"How can she compare to Shushu? What kind of family does Shushu come from, and what kind of family does she come from? What is Shushu's educational background, and what is her educational background? You broke up with Shushu back then because of this woman, right? Knowing that you had a fiancée, she still tried to get close to you. This kind of woman is not one to stay put, and your father and I will not approve of her."
"Mom, all you're really saying is that you look down on her family background because she can't bring you any good benefits."
Mr. Jiang pointed at his son, who kept contradicting him, and was so angry that he couldn't speak: "How could I have given birth to a son like you?"
Jiang Yi's life was planned out for him by his father since he was a child. He didn't like it and was dissatisfied with it. He couldn't resist it before, but now that he has the ability, he does everything against his father.
When he graduated from university, his father applied for him to study abroad, but he refused and secretly entered the entertainment industry.
After his father cut off all his credit cards and living expenses, he has worked hard to become a top star in the entertainment industry over the years, and now he owns his own house and car.
Naturally, he was not afraid of his father's tyranny.
Jiang Yi chuckled self-deprecatingly: "You think I want to call you Dad?"
"You..." Jiang's father was so angry at his outrageous words that he raised his hand.
"What? You want to hit me again... Go ahead and hit me."
"Alright, you two can't meet, you always argue as soon as you do."
"Look at the state he's in now."
“We called our son here to talk to him, not to make you two enemies,” Jiang’s mother said, then pulled her son and said, “Ayi, your parents are doing this for your own good. Look at the eldest son of the Cheng family. He married someone from a different social class, who was also his college classmate. What happened in the end? His life was a mess. Such a good example in front of us, isn’t that enough to wake you up?”
"Mom, Mengmeng isn't just anyone, she's different. Let's leave it at that. I have something to do, so I'll go now."
"Come back."
When Mr. Jiang saw that his son was about to leave, he frowned slightly, wanting to ask his son to stay, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Jiang's mother glanced at him and said, "Look at you, you clearly care about your son, but the things you say are so hurtful. You even said it's all because I spoiled him, but I think it's you who pushed him away."
"Oh, let's not talk about that. Arrange the marriage with the Zhang family as soon as possible."
He might not agree.
"This time, he has no choice."
