Chapter 30
After waiting for most of the morning, the real person finally showed up. The reporters at the gate of Jinxiu Nianhua were excited. Jing Rong's car was parked openly at the gate. The driver got out and opened the door for her. He and Secretary Lin stood on Jing Rong's left and right to protect her. Seeing this, the reporters swarmed in, flash lights kept lighting up, and they stretched out their hands to hand over the microphone.
"Hello, President Xue, someone saw you on a sweet date with Big Bang member Taeyang Xi yesterday. Are you guys confirmed in your relationship and ready to make it public?"
"President Xue, can you tell me about your relationship?"
"It is reported that in the program 'Future Choices' that aired two days ago, you publicly stated that the person you admire most in Big Bang is Taeyang. Was this to support your boyfriend?"
"President Xue, may I ask..."
Jing Rong was still moving forward, but the road was almost blocked. Seeing this, the security guard at the door immediately came over to clear the way for Jing Rong. However, even so, the reporters kept following Jing Rong. Just as he was about to step into the hotel door, a reporter called out to Jing Rong: "President Xue, the news about you and Big Bang's Taeyang is everywhere now. Aren't you going to explain it?"
Jing Rong turned around and saw a young man. He looked at her straight with his neck erect. Jing Rong raised an eyebrow and asked, "Which newspaper do you work for?"
The reporters suddenly quieted down and looked at the boy and said, "I am an intern at xx Daily. Hello, President Xue."
Jing Rong nodded. "Why shouldn't I explain? Because there's no need. As good friends, going out for a meal together, going to an amusement park, it's not that out of the ordinary, but it's been misinterpreted like this by rumors. Do you think there's any need for me to explain?"
The boy was stunned by the question, and the veteran reporter next to him immediately handed over the microphone: "President Xue is saying that this is all a misunderstanding? But how do you explain your public expression of affection for Big Bang's Taeyang?"
"I admire Taeyang just like I admire Jun Ji-hyun and treat her as a goddess - do you think I'm a lesbian when I say this?"
So no one thought Jing Rong would say such sharp words and was stunned on the spot. However, Jing Rong seemed to have lost his patience. He said "goodbye" and walked into the hotel surrounded by employees, leaving a group of reporters staring at each other for a few seconds, and then left as if nothing had happened.
When encountering such a thing, Jing Rong did not need to greet the reporters in a nice manner like a celebrity. After all, she did not live by her reputation, and no matter how excessive the reporters wrote, it would not hurt her. Besides, the Xue family was wealthy and powerful, and no newspaper dared to make up her story unscrupulously. However, these reporters were quick. The news came out in the afternoon of the same day. The news about Jing Rong clarifying her relationship with Taiyang made the headlines on the web in just a few minutes. A reporter from a newspaper recorded the conversation between Jing Rong and the reporter very pertinently, and the last sentence shocked the friends who followed the news.
"Sharp! The goddess is really going all out this time!"
"The goddess was furious, but it's understandable. It was clearly just a relationship between good friends, but those people said such dirty things about it. Who would dare to make friends with them in the future?"
"What's wrong with this world? Is there no pure friendship between men and women? Look at the goddess and the idol, lifelong friends. How touching it is!"
"Oh my god, am I the only one who noticed the goddess of the goddess? Why don't you two goddesses just be together? You two are a perfect match!"
"This is definitely true love, please be together!"
“Together, together!”
“Together, together!”
Looking at the row of neatly arranged fonts on the screen, Jing Rong began to have a headache. It wasn't good if netizens were too accepting, as they could relate anything to true love. So he simply turned off the computer.
The doorbell rang, Jing Rong spread out the documents and said, "Come in."
"Boss." Assistant Zhang handed Jing Rong a document. "This month's budget needs your signature."
"Okay." Jing Rong took it, quickly glanced through it, signed his name, and handed it to Zhang Jingran, "Anything else?"
"It's a personal matter." Zhang Jingran smiled. "I want to ask if the president has read the news online?"
Jing Rong's face immediately darkened. Zhang Jingran clenched his fists, coughed twice, and laughed, "I have to say, the president's trick of deflecting the blame was really successful. Now everyone is discussing whether you and Jun Ji-hyun are a good match."
"You're quite free, aren't you?"
"No, no." Zhang Jingran waved his hand quickly. "I'm going back to work. Goodbye, President."
There's a saying in China: "It doesn't matter if the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat." This also applies to Jingrong. Regardless, the rumors about her and Taeyang have been cleared up, at least that's what the media reported. Whether others believe it or not is none of her business. Jingrong is content that she can finally have some peace of mind.
Just before getting off work, Jing Rong unexpectedly received a call from his friends. Zhang Zhiyao on the phone seemed very excited: "You finally got some face. You were almost poached by your good friend. What was that famous star's reaction?"
"Zhiyao, it's just a misunderstanding."
"What misunderstanding? If there's one, there's another. Haha, that self-righteous celebrity has been slapped in the face this time! Good job!"
Jing Rong stopped trying to reason with the stubborn woman and sighed. She asked, "What do you want from me?"
"In view of your outstanding performance this time, we have decided to hold a celebration party for you. Don't thank us too much!"
After a pause, Jing Rong asked, "What time and where? I have a dinner party tonight, so I might be there late."
"It's okay. We're changing our base this time. I'll send you the address later. Just be there before 9:30 p.m."
"good."
This time, the gathering of friends was at a very popular nightclub. Jing Rong arrived on time and Zhang Zhiyao and the others were already there. This group of young men and women still loved the lively atmosphere of the hall and liked the eye-catching seats the most. They were the ones who had the most exciting atmosphere in the whole place and were very easy to recognize. Jing Rong saw them as soon as he stepped through the door.
Cui Yingya was the first to discover Jingrong. She stood up and waved to Jingrong: "Dear, we are here."
So the others stopped laughing and watched Jingrong walk over step by step. Cui Yingya walked forward and took Jingrong's arm affectionately and said, "You're here so late?"
"I had a dinner party, so I was delayed for a while." Jing Rong explained, and then asked, "Aren't you in the UK? When did you come back?"
"Just arrived this morning. You've been quite popular lately, almost becoming a national goddess."
Zhang Zhiyao also put down his wine glass and stepped forward to put his arms around their shoulders. "That's not what I meant. There's nothing surprising about a national goddess. What's surprising is that our Jing Rong has finally been willing to give someone a cold shoulder this time. It's really satisfying! I still say that, Jing Rong, I support you in taking down the Suns!"
"It's just irresponsible gossip reporters writing nonsense, and you actually believe it? And make a fuss about it?" Jing Rong raised his eyebrows.
Cui Yingya said sincerely, "I believe that empty words don't come without wind. Come, for this great news, let's have a toast today!"
The boys sitting on the sofa started to make a noise again: "What are these three beauties chatting about in private? Jingrong is late today, so he has to drink three glasses of wine as punishment!"
"Didn't we agree on half past nine?"
"But everyone arrived early, do you feel bad about that?" The boy glanced at Cui Yingya again, "Our Miss Cui, who was jet-lagged, didn't even make anyone wait. Jingrong, you deserve these three glasses of wine."
Another boy started to make noises: "Drink it, or we'll punish you."
Zhang Zhiyao asked, "What punishment?"
"She'll be punished by getting a waiter to dance with her, haha."
Friends often play like this, and Jing Rong didn't expect them to have much moral integrity. He finished his Three Cups Chicken without changing his expression, pulled Zhang Zhiyao and Cui Yingya to sit in an inconspicuous corner, and began to explain his purpose: "The bar will open soon, and there are some things I'm really busy with. If you have time, please help me take care of it in the early stage. Besides, you are familiar with this."
Cui Yingya crossed her legs and said, "No problem, leave it to us. Actually, I've wanted to open a bar for fun for a long time, but my dad insisted that it would have a bad influence and wouldn't let me open it."
Zhang Zhiyao took a sip of his wine and said, "Of course. Your father is a high-ranking government official. If the news of your daughter opening a nightclub gets out, it will be a disaster."
"My family is just testing the waters first, and we intend to develop a chain. If you are interested, you can invest in it when the time comes."
"How do you need our help?" Zhang Zhiyao asked.
"After the opening, we mainly hope that you will be there to take charge of the daily operations. The rest of the matters will be handled by a dedicated team."
Cui Yingya and Zhang Zhiyao exchanged a glance and nodded in unison: "That's no problem. We can have fun anywhere, but it's more relaxing to have fun at home."
"Oh, and there's also a bonus for opening day. You have a wide network of contacts, so help me get more people here."
Jingrong was chatting happily over here, and the atmosphere in the private room on the second floor was also good. Some were drinking, playing cards, and telling jokes. There was also a beautiful woman next to each person to persuade them to drink and liven up the atmosphere. Quan Zhilong accidentally got too high and was about to sing with the microphone in his hand when the door of the private room suddenly opened and Kim came in. The man closest to the door jokingly said without looking up, "Kim, who is so powerful downstairs that he has to let you come out to deal with it?"
Kim pinched his brows and said, "Don't mention it. A bunch of princelings and princesses were having a blast downstairs. You said you wanted to have some fun, so let them have some fun in a private room. But they just liked to have fun in the smoky hall. Who can you blame if they ruined their fun?"
"What princeling is so romantic/interesting?"
Kim glanced at G-Dragon and the innocent beauty hanging around him, and suddenly smiled: "Don't tell me, one of them is an old acquaintance."
The author has something to say: I almost forgot to post the third update, embarrassing-_-|||
