Chapter 56 Brothers or Wife
Xuanzhe came in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts, so he simply scanned the QR code on Jiang Ning's WeChat and transferred a considerable sum of money to him.
Jiang Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Brother Xuanzhe, you must have been thinking about Wen Shuang all the way here that you completely forgot about me."
A normal person would feel a little embarrassed, but Xuanzhe was different. He nodded generously: "Okay, I'll make it up to you on my next birthday."
Jiang Ning: “…”
Wen Shuang was naturally overjoyed when he heard this. He peeled some pine nuts and originally planned to eat them all at once, but when he heard this, he stuffed them into Xuanzhe's hand and said, "Stick it on."
Xuanzhe smiled and ruffled his hair. When he heard others using reduplication, he wanted to pull out their tongues. But his own son was different. He was adorable from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Ning was so full of dog food that he found an excuse to go out and play with his brothers.
Most of those who came to the banquet today had some sense of propriety, knowing what to say and what not to say. They had seen many romantic occasions and should remain calm, but they had never seen Xuan Zhe so closely!
Several groups of people stood at a relatively far distance, frequently glancing over but daring not to approach. Xuanzhe's reputation was not only limited, but also due to his aura, and the lifeblood of so many in the entertainment industry, that anyone who could connect with him and simply announce their name would be considered a meteoric rise to prominence.
"Jiangning." Fellow actor Gao He brought over a glass of champagne. Although he was talking to an old friend, his eyes kept glancing at Xuan Zhe. "It's really President Xuan."
Jiang Ning noticed the little bit of joy in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel depressed. Gao He has good resources and a good family background. He has always been self-righteous and hates getting involved with businessmen in the circle. Why did he get so twisted today?
"It's Xuanzhe." Jiang Ning replied, "But don't even think about it. Listen to my advice. Going up there will only lead to food."
But Gao He obviously didn't think so. He noticed Wen Shuang's ambiguous posture with Xuan Zhe and frowned slightly, "Who is that..."
"Mr. Xuan's boyfriend." Jiang Ning confessed frankly, not worried about Gao He going out and talking nonsense. If someone broke the news about Xuan Zhe, there had to be media coverage. "He's also my friend, Wen Shuang."
Gao He's eyes flashed, it was obvious that he matched the number.
Wen Shuang has been very popular recently, and has been on the hot search list every other day. It is hard for Gao He not to know about it.
Seeing Gao He standing there hesitantly, Jiang Ning felt that the matter had come to this point and he couldn't stop the other party from giving away his head.
The food prepared tonight was quite good. Wen Shuang was a true foodie, eating with gusto beside Xuan Zhe, occasionally feeding her boyfriend a few bites of freshly fried chicken drumsticks, which he smeared with grease around his mouth after finishing. Being able to eat is a blessing, Xuan Zhe thought. Wen Shuang had been very thin since he took over. She had put on a few pounds on the scale, but he felt her body day in and day out and couldn't tell where all the weight had gone.
Whenever Wen Shuang couldn't bear it anymore in bed because of Xuan Zhe, she would subconsciously arch her body, and her shoulder blades would protrude obviously. Xuan Zhe would always kiss her tenderly twice.
"Do you want to eat it?" Wen Shuang took a bite of fried squid.
Xuan Zhe was about to answer when a clear voice suddenly interrupted, "Hello, Mr. Xuan." Gao He was a tall and straight man. His temperament and figure were very good because he had been practicing dance since he was a child. It goes without saying that Gao He has been the object of flattery by some famous children since he appeared here. He has handsome features. In addition to the scholarly and gentle temperament inherited from his mother, he also has his own nobleness and arrogance. In short, in the entertainment industry where there are so many handsome guys, he is an unforgettable character.
Gao He said this and looked at Wen Shuang calmly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Although the amplitude was small, Wen Shuang noticed it.
At this moment, Gao He's white shirt stood out in the evening breeze. In contrast, Wen Shuang ate like a starving ghost, and there were a few oil spots on her clothes on her chest. But so what? Wen Shuang thought without any inferiority, Xuanzhe liked him, and no matter how outstanding the young man in front of him was, Xuanzhe could not see it.
After realizing this, Wen Shuang continued to eat the grilled squid without being affected at all.
"My name is Gao He." The man had a distinguished demeanor. "My father once endorsed your company's peripheral products."
Xuanzhe nodded, indicating that he understood, and his expression remained calm from beginning to end.
Wen Shuang smacked her lips and looked at Xuan Zhe: "I want another one."
"Be careful not to overeat."
Wen Shuang said in a flattering tone, "The last one, I promise."
Xuanzhe said no, but he honestly took another plate. Gao He on the side was secretly surprised. When would President Xuan run errands for others?
Being ignored wasn't pleasant, but fortunately Gao He had a strong mental attitude. He said gently, "Everyone says President Xuan is out of touch with reality, but it seems the rumors aren't true. He's actually sitting here chatting and laughing with the artists from his own company."
Wen Shuang stuffed a mouthful of squid and corrected sincerely, "See if the other artists of Quan Yi dare to sit next to Xuan Zhe."
President Xuan smiled and pursed his lips, then confronted him!
It seemed like he was saying nothing, but the meaning he was trying to convey was conveyed. He, Wen Shuang, was a special case around Xuan Zhe, which could be seen from the fact that he was addressed by his full name.
Gao He took a deep breath and pushed the wine glass forward, revealing a slender wrist. The broken diamonds on the watch made it look white and beautiful, making people want to pinch it. "Mr. Xuan, would you like a drink?"
Xuanzhe habitually took out a piece of paper to wipe Wen Shuang's mouth, "No, I'm driving."
He didn't even glance at me.
Wen Shuang took Gao He's little movements in full view. She snorted in her heart and rolled up her sleeves. When the wide cuffs were removed, her white wrists were as white as snow, without any accompaniment, which made President Xuan's eyes darker.
What a stupid trick! Xuanzhe took a deep breath.
If Gao He could still stay, it would not be just because of his strong mental quality. He found an excuse to leave in a hurry. He probably didn't expect that Xuan Zhe did not become a breakthrough but was instead hit by Wen Shuang's attack.
At Wen Shuang's urging, Xuan Zhe drank half a bowl of porridge to fill his stomach. As expected, the alcohol made him bolder, and Jiang Suqing came over to arrest people.
To be honest, ever since Xuanzhe and Wen Shuang started dating, the number of dates he accepted has plummeted. Jiang Suqing has been dissatisfied for a long time, and now he points at Wen Shuang and asks, "Do you want a brother tonight, or do you want your wife?"
Xuanzhe narrowed his eyes, Jiang Suqing felt a chill on his back, and immediately put his hand down.
"Go ahead." Wen Shuang smiled and nudged Xuan Zhe with her shoulder. "I'll drive tonight."
Xuanzhe originally planned not to have a brother, but suddenly thought of having sex after drinking... He stood up, glanced at the sincere-looking little quail, and nodded: "Okay, I'll go."
Several big guys were chatting and drinking there, and ordinary people didn't dare to approach them, so they formed their own circle.
Wen Shuang was full and couldn't sit still, so she walked around this place which was called an apartment but was actually a villa. Even though it was almost midsummer, the nights in the mountains were a bit cold. The sudden and clear sound of insects blocked out the noise outside, and behind them was Lu Wei, whose "da da da" sounds were very rhythmic.
Wen Shuang stared at it for a while, and noticed a few red carps in it. Just as she was about to scare them, she heard a conversation coming from the small bamboo forest nearby.
It is called a bamboo forest, but in fact it is just an area the size of a palm, which appears quiet because it is covered by shadows.
"Mr. Tang, please consider me." The soft female voice could not conceal the shyness and admiration in it.
Mr. Tang was moved by Wen Shuang's words.
"I'm sorry, I don't have any plans to fall in love in the near future." The man refused gently. He sounded so polite, it really was Tang Weisheng!
Wen Shuang didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed of being cornered. In fact, with Tang Weisheng's status, it was normal for him to be admired by others, but this man was visibly cold and indifferent, and the word "love" had nothing to do with him.
Wen Shuang thought they would chat for a while longer, but the girl compromised so quickly and stuck to him! Hearing footsteps, Wen Shuang subconsciously wanted to dodge, but there was no shelter around except the small bamboo forest, and it was too late to run now. He had no choice but to squat beside the big rock beside him. Anyway, the light was dim, and Tang Weisheng might not notice him.
Almost as soon as Wen Shuang squatted down, Tang Weisheng came out with a girl.
The girl wore a long dress and clasped her hands in front of her as she said her final goodbye. "Well, Mr. Tang, I'm leaving now. If you want to date someone in the future, remember to consider me first."
Tang Weisheng nodded: "If you are single."
Tsk, Wen Shuang held up her chin to admire the scene. In the dim light, she could see the girl's appearance clearly. She was quite pretty.
At this moment, Tang Weisheng suddenly looked in the direction of Wen Shuang, his eyes cold and swift as lightning, "Who!"
So sharp! Wen Shuang sighed in his heart, then stood up resignedly. He was not afraid of Tang Weisheng at all now. After all, the contract had been taken back by Xuanzhe, hehe!
Wen Shuang was about to speak when the phone in his pocket vibrated. He subconsciously took it out. The faint blue light made the face look sharp and fang-like. It was a message from Jiang Ning, asking him where he was. Feeling the gazes of the two people opposite him, Wen Shuang slowly raised his head.
"Ah!!!" the girl couldn't help but scream.
Even Tang Weisheng's pupils trembled slightly, but the one that made him feel a chill running down his spine to the top of his head was not a ghost, but a human.
Tang Weisheng has some PTSD towards Wen Shuang. The terrible feeling of having his pants taken off and his thighs feeling cold that day lingers in his mind until now. He even had nightmares for several days in a row. The ending of his dreams was that he jumped off a tall building to end it all. Mental oppression is always the strongest.
Tang Weisheng couldn't help but take two steps back, and the girl next to him was obviously scared to death. She screamed and ran, but the light here was insufficient, and the gravel road was bumpy. She slipped as soon as she took a step, and her body tilted and fell into the pool next to her. The girl subconsciously reached for the nearest thing, so she grabbed Tang Weisheng's arm.
Under normal circumstances, Tang Weisheng would definitely be able to react, but with his natural enemy right in front of him, he became distracted and lost his balance.
"Bang--"
“Crash—”
"Ouch." Wen Shuang stretched out her hand but was too late to stop them. She could only watch helplessly as the pair of little mandarin ducks became drowned rats in an instant.
Fortunately, the pool was not deep, only reaching the girl's waist. It was just a little neglected, and water plants spread. Anyway, Tang Weisheng successfully dyed half of his hair green.
Tang Weisheng rested one hand on the rocks on the shore, veins bulging on the back of his hand. He closed his eyes as if he was trying hard to endure something.
"No, are you okay?" Wen Shuang stepped forward and tried to pull the man up.
Tang Weisheng's voice was extremely cold, "Don't come over here!"
The girl's shoes were thrown into the pool. After getting ashore, she covered her body and ran upstairs from the back door. She should have had some clothes to change into. For a moment, only Wen Shuang and Tang Weisheng were left here.
The cold wind blows, it's very chilly.
Wen Shuang was worried that Tang Weisheng would suddenly beat her up.
"Wen Shuang" With Xuan Zhe's soft call, Jiang Suqing turned on the light in the backyard.
Tang Weisheng's embarrassment was exposed in an instant.
Xuanzhe was stunned, "What are you doing?"
Only then did Wen Shuang see Tang Weisheng's expression clearly. It was more desolate than angry. He felt inexplicably guilty, but he really didn't mean it.
"I didn't mean to scare you." Wen Shuang explained in a low voice, "I was just playing here and you suddenly came out."
Tang Weisheng actually responded to Wen Shuang, "Why don't you just leave?"
Wen Shuang couldn't say anything like "I kind of want to watch the fun."
Jiang Suqing was amused. "What's wrong, Mr. Tang? The swimming pool in the front yard couldn't satisfy you, so you came here?"
Tang Weisheng reached out and pulled the water plants off his hair. Because the water quality was poor, some of them stung his eyes, so his eyes were slightly red. He looked at Xuanzhe and said in a calm and serious tone for the first time in the lives of the two brothers: "Can you control your boyfriend?"
Xuan Zhe looked arrogant. Wen Shuang could talk about anything, so why should she care about him? He waved to his own little quail. Wen Shuang immediately avoided Tang Weisheng carefully and ran towards him happily.
Tang Weisheng wiped the water off his face and went upstairs. Suddenly, three words popped up in his mind: What a sin...
Xuanzhe held Wen Shuang's hand, wondering how he had gotten Tang Weisheng away. "What did you do?"
Wen Shuang told the story again, and Jiang Suqing laughed so hard that he crowed like a rooster.
"Let's go." Xuan Zhe held back his laughter and put his arm around Wen Shuang's shoulders, thinking that she was truly a talented person.
Li Junshan and his companions were still drinking. Xuanzhe clinked glasses with Lei Wenxu. Wen Shuang couldn't run around anymore and wanted to talk to Jiang Ning, but the latter was already drunk and lying on the table. Yu Feng... Although Yu Feng was a winemaker, he could not drink much. At this moment, his head was shaking and finally hit hard on Lei Wenxu's shoulder.
Wen Shuang raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Um..." Zhong Ming finally mustered up the courage to approach Wen Shuang within Xuanzhe's protection. "I have something I want to trouble you with, and I certainly won't let you do it in vain."
Wen Shuang: "Dog... ahem, Mr. Zhong, please speak."
Zhong Ming ignored the name he had thought of at the beginning, rubbed his hands and said, "My friend got a sapphire from Dongzhou. I spent a lot of money to get it and made a pendant. Can you help me, help me..."
"I'll give it to Lu Li for you," Wen Shuang completed.
"Yes!" Zhong Ming smiled, with pure joy in his eyes. "Lu Li seems to have had a fight with Zheng Yuanfei. He hasn't been answering my calls lately. Aren't you guys planning to have a celebration party or a press conference after the filming? Can you send it to him for me?"
Zhong Ming had a very bad impression of Wen Shuang at first, but he had one advantage. He only used what others said as a reference for many things. As he got to know and interacted with them, he felt that Wen Shuang was not that bad after all, and he was not prejudiced in his dealings with others. Now he liked this person more and more, so he wanted to entrust this matter to him.
Wen Shuang was silent for a while, then sighed, "Did you make one for Zheng Yuanfei too?"
Zhong Ming: “Yeah.”
"You gave Lu Li a rare pendant. Given Zheng Yuanfei's personality, would he be willing to do so? If Zheng Yuanfei doesn't want to, would Lu Li dare to wear it? Brother Gou, you are not thorough. If you want to give gifts, just give both of them. That's thoughtful service." Wen Shuang's voice was neither salty nor bland.
Zhong Ming felt uncomfortable after hearing this, but after a pause he nodded and said, "That's right."
"You!" Wen Shuang couldn't help himself. He wanted to pry open Zhong Ming's head to see what was inside. "If you're not a brother, all the men in the world are dead." This sentence attracted the attention of several people on the opposite side. Wen Shuang didn't notice and said earnestly, "If Lu Li was single, I would help you pursue him, it's okay, but she has confirmed her relationship with Zheng Yuanfei and is about to make it official. What are you doing? You keep making trouble for yourself. There must be a limit to licking yourself."
Zhong Ming was completely devoted to Lu Li. Someone had said these words to him before, but he didn't like to hear them. He even had a quarrel with his brothers and beat them up. Later, no one paid attention to him anymore. Now that Wen Shuang had exposed his words, Zhong Ming was subconsciously annoyed and his fists were clenched, but he also felt as if he had been enlightened and felt that they were right.
Zhong Ming couldn't explain why he liked Lu Li so much. It was like there was a voice in his heart reminding him all the time, and it became a habit.
Wen Shuang felt a chill in her heart when she saw this... She was controlled by the will of this world.
Zhong Ming lowered his head with a sullen face and said nothing.
Jiang Suqing rarely interfered with other people's relationships. He couldn't help himself after drinking recently. "Brother, Wen Shuang is right. You said you have good conditions. You can find a boyfriend or girlfriend for any of us. I will find one for you."
Zhong Ming stood up suddenly, a little flustered, "Alright, drink now, I'm going home."
"This guy." Jiang Suqing shook his head: "He's stubborn."
The banquet didn't end until the early morning. Jiang Suqing and others suggested that they just stay here, but Wen Shuang needed to get up early tomorrow to attend a fan meeting, and Xuan Zhe didn't like being outside either, so Wen Shuang drove and the two left.
Before leaving, Wen Shuang wanted to ask Yu Feng something, but Lei Wenxu put his arm around her waist and took her upstairs directly. Xuanzhe told him not to worry about it, and Wen Shuang really couldn't do anything about it. Judging from Yu Feng's attitude, he was obviously very dependent on Lei Wenxu, so he just let it go.
Wen Shuang went to make honey water as soon as she got home. Xuan Zhe sat on the sofa, untying his tie, a thick smile on his lips. He suddenly said, "Tomorrow I'll have Cao Nanyu give up the house you rented. You're an artist now, and it's not safe to live in that kind of community. Be careful of your fans who might come to block you."
Wen Shuang thought about it and agreed. Besides, they were in the honeymoon period and were inseparable, so she said, "Okay."
Wen Shuang brought over some honey water. Xuan Zhe drank most of it at first, but then started to act like a spoiled brat with the rest. He turned his head away from the cup, looking like a drunk and upset child. Wen Shuang patiently coaxed him, "Drink it up, so you can have a comfortable night."
It wasn't uncomfortable at first. Xuanzhe leaned on the sofa and looked at Wen Shuang, "Feed me."
Wen Shuang blinked, "I'm feeding you now."
"Don't use your hands." The man raised his slender index finger and gently touched his lips.
Wen Shuang's ears turned red, and she said sternly, "No!"
Xuanzhe looked up at the ceiling, revealing his sexy collarbone and lean chest showing through his neckline. He sighed and said, "I understand. We've just started, and we've already reached a bottleneck."
Wen Shuang was seduced by the beauty. She raised her hand to wipe the non-existent saliva, looking like a bully and cooperating very well. "Okay, wait for me to favor you!" After saying that, she took a sip of honey water and went to find Xuan Zhe's lips.
Wen Shuang is the best at packing herself up and delivering herself to the door.
Xuan Zhe swallowed all the honey water with the tip of his tongue while pinching Wen Shuang's waist hard, wishing he could hold her in his arms. Usually they did it in the bedroom, but tonight Xuan Zhe wanted to do something different.
He brushed off the things in his hand and pressed the person onto the coffee table.
The finest jade marble, with dark patterns running across its pitch-black base, made Wen Shuang's back shiver violently at the first touch. She subconsciously raised her body and said, "Cold..."
"Are you cold?" Xuanzhe's eyes were deep and bottomless. He pinched Wen Shuang's wrist and pulled her closer to take a look. She was as fair and charming as the one he saw at the banquet. He bent down and kissed her. Xuanzhe's voice was hoarse: "It will not be cold soon."
Heat ignited from the man's palm, and the surroundings were instantly engulfed in flames.
Xuanzhe just tried hard, and only after Wen Shuang suddenly lost her voice did he move closer, staring at the bright red mole on her earlobe, and asked in a somewhat malicious tone: "Are you still cold now?"
Wen Shuang didn't answer.
On the coffee table before going to bed, on the sofa when waking up, without even entering the bedroom door, so sophisticated!
Fortunately, the sofa was big enough for the two of them to sleep together. Suddenly, the alarm on the phone rang. Xuanzhe reached it and turned it off. After a few seconds of silence, Wen Shuang forced herself to stay awake and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's only seven o'clock, sleep a little longer."
"I can't sleep anymore." Wen Shuang said firmly, but she didn't even have the strength to move her fingertips. "I have a fan meeting today. What will it look like if I'm late?"
But no action is taken.
Xuan Zhe chuckled grimly. He was feeling fine, the word "fine" couldn't even be used to describe it. He felt extremely comfortable. So he got up, casually put on a pair of underwear, and then carried Wen Shuang to the bathroom.
Wen Shuang could make Xuan Zhe a waste. After being dried by a towel and put on the bed, he slowly woke up. He yawned and put his arms around Xuan Zhe's neck, "I have to be at the company at 8 o'clock."
"Let's go together." Xuanzhe patted his back and went to the closet to find clothes. "Should I wear something casual or formal?"
"Take some time off." Wen Shuang tried hard to wake up the sleepy girl, but she couldn't bring back Yao who had run away from home.
The door was pushed open. Zhu Lian looked at Wen Shuang, who was almost an inch away from moving in like an eighty-year-old man, and was a little surprised: "What happened again?"
"It was Jiang Ning's birthday last night, and I went out to drink a little. I accidentally fell." Wen Shuang continued to make excuses, but looking at Zhu Lian's face, she obviously didn't believe it.
Fortunately, Zhu Lian didn't say much. Seeing that Jian Wenshuang was still in good spirits, he immediately called the makeup artist and stylist over. They arrived at the venue at 9:30.
Wen Shuang originally didn't have much hope. He had always had a mysterious lack of confidence in his popularity. Until the moment Zhu Lian pushed him out from behind the scenes, the thunderous screams almost blew the roof off the house, and Wen Shuang's slightly confused mind became completely clear.
He looked at the densely packed crowd below the stage. Everyone was wearing all kinds of cute bunny ears and holding cheering signs or banners with his name engraved on them.
This was the first time Wen Shuang personally felt the power of idols and fans.
"Mama Frostcub loves you!"
"Mother Frostcub loves you too!"
Wen Shuang: "..." The power of maternal love?
