The next day.
Chu Jiang and Xi Ran got up very early.
Seeing that the sky was clear and there was no sign of rain, the two went out together.
Today is Saturday. Usually, Xi Ran and Xi Yan spend it together, going out to eat, drink, and shop. This has become a habit for Xi Ran. Today, without Xi Yan's company, she is indeed not used to it and can't help but start muttering to herself.
"We two came out to have fun, and we felt a little guilty leaving Xi Yan in the dormitory."
Chu Jiang also pursed his lips. What was there to be reluctant about? Was it really appropriate for a grown man to follow his older sister around like a shadow all day?
Can't he have his own life?
He's getting on in years, and he still hasn't found a girlfriend to date. Does he really want to be a bachelor for the rest of his life?
Chu Jiang was also very jealous and said sourly, "You feel wronged for coming out with me? He has been monopolizing you for so long. I finally got two days off, and all you can think about is another man. What about me?"
Seeing Chu Jiangyi's jealous expression, Xi Ran quickly tried to appease him. Based on past experience, it was best to extinguish Chu Jiangyi's anger as soon as it started, otherwise it would become more and more difficult to deal with later on.
They're getting harder and harder to appease!
Early detection and intervention are the best options!
"How could that be? You're the only one in my heart and eyes! You know Xi Yan is a bit withdrawn and doesn't have many friends, so I'm the one who has to worry about him. If I hadn't dragged him out for a walk, he probably would only be focused on studying. I'm just forced into this situation. You're so jealous! You're such a jealous person!"
Chu Jiang knew he was in the wrong, so he shrank back and remained silent.
He knew it was wrong to be jealous of his brother-in-law, but he couldn't control himself.
He also knew that Xi Yan and Xi Ran had special family circumstances and that they depended on each other for survival; their relationship was not like that of ordinary siblings.
Perhaps you should learn to be more generous in the future.
"Isn't it because I care about you too much? I finally have time to spend with you, but you're worried about your brother. How can I feel good about that?"
Xi Ran surrendered, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault, I'll change, okay? I've spent the last two days with you, all my time is yours, are you satisfied now?"
Chu Jiang also beamed with joy, "That's more like it!"
The two strolled hand in hand through the streets of Beijing, without any particular destination, simply to experience the local customs and culture.
"Beijing has so many delicious foods."
“Our G City isn’t bad either.”
"That's true."
The two chatted casually and unknowingly walked into a food street.
Wow! I was just wandering around aimlessly today and I actually found a treasure trove! How wonderful!
"You like it?"
"Of course I like it! Who doesn't love delicious food..."
Before Xi Ran could finish speaking, she saw someone she hadn't expected appear there.
He grabbed Chu Jiangyi and turned to leave!
What a treasure trove of a place! What a small world!
How did she end up with this difficult person?
She kept saying she loved Xi Ran, but the very next day she was seen hugging a handsome man.
This love and behavior are completely mismatched!
Are they all playing this elaborately?
She's not quite used to it yet.
They're embracing so intimately, it must be...
Why! ! !
Suddenly realizing something, she pulled Chu Jiangyi toward another stall.
"Didn't you want to eat squid tentacles? Aren't you going to buy them?"
"I'm not eating anymore!"
Chu Jiang was also a little confused. Just a moment ago, she looked excited about discovering something delicious, but now she looked like she couldn't eat. A woman's heart is unfathomable, so he didn't press her for an explanation.
His woman is spoiled and can do whatever she wants.
"What I feared most has come to pass," Xi Ran muttered to herself.
Xi Ran still couldn't escape Tang Qingqing's sharp eyes.
"Sister! What are you doing here?"
Xi Ran gave an awkward laugh.
"We came here to eat because we heard the food here is good, so we came to check it out."
"Oh! Why don't we go together?"
"No need! I won't bother you any longer!"
Tang Qingqing hadn't looked away from Chu Jiangyi's face since she first saw it.
"Are you Chu Jiangyi, the one who makes short dramas? I really like your short dramas, I'm a fan of yours. It's better to meet by chance than to arrange to meet, so my treat is on me today."
Chu Jiang also disliked the way the girl opposite him was looking at him; it felt like a wolf eyeing its prey.
"No thanks! I don't like eating with strangers!"
Immediately afterwards, he pulled his wife away from this place of trouble. He could sense that Xi Ran disliked the girl standing opposite them.
"Wait! I heard that the income difference between actors in short dramas and regular actors is huge. If you have a nice meal with me today, I can introduce you to a famous director. How about it?"
Chu Jiang also looked uninterested.
Tang Qingqing, unwilling to give up, pointed to the handsome young man beside him, "He's the one I introduced to a director. He's pursuing an acting career. If you..."
Chu Jiang also understood the implied meaning on the other end. His face darkened, and he flatly refused, "No need! I don't need it!"
If he had wanted to rely on others, he wouldn't have made short dramas; instead, he would have asked his father to invest in making a full-length drama for him. But that's not what he wanted.
Relying on others? It's better to rely on his dad; his dad is quite influential, but he wants to rely on himself.
He wants to film more short dramas to hone his acting skills, and once he has the ability, directors will come knocking on his door.
With his current abilities, he's really not suited for filming.
You have to take things one step at a time; you can't become a fat person overnight.
Since he entered this industry, he has gradually fallen in love with it.
He will take it one step at a time and slowly move forward.
