Chapter 11
Just ask yourself, is there any news more explosive than your boss’s secret marriage?
The silent Orange couldn't help but say, "Sister Zhenni, when did you get married? I didn't even know!"
Wen Zhenni held up three fingers and said, "We got the certificate three years ago."
orange:"……"
So, she followed Wen Zhenni for so many years and didn't notice any clues.
Orange swallowed his saliva, his eyes wandering around the exaggerated palace-like house.
The high-ceilinged lobby requires you to crane your head to see the details on the roof. While the architecture is French, the interior is decorated in a French-Chinese style, exuding a sense of solemnity and luxury from the inside out.
To live in a place like this, the owner must be very wealthy.
She realized belatedly that she seemed to be hugging a very thick thigh.
But judging from Qin Qing's expression, he didn't seem surprised at all.
Most likely he knows the inside story of the secret marriage.
"You can still date after getting married."
Qin Qing said: "Experiencing the seven emotions and six desires, remembering the pain and sweetness, and complex emotions help us understand and shape the characters. This is the simplest way to give the characters a soul."
It took Qin Qing half a day to go through all her TV series from the beginning, and she changed her tea three times during that time.
At noon, Wen Zhenni asked her to stay for lunch, but Qin Qing refused because she wanted to go home early.
"The child is still young at home. If I'm not around, he'll throw a tantrum and refuse to eat. I have to go back as soon as possible to look after him."
Talking about her child, the thin woman's eyes sparkled. "When you have a baby, you will understand that when you become a mother, your child is your most precious treasure. You will always miss him/her when you are away from him/her for even a moment."
The Jin and Ci families actually have younger generations, but they are not often here. Wen Zhenni really cannot understand this, so she can only smile and personally see her out the door and put her in the car.
Qin Qing looked at her through the window and said, "I forgot to ask you, do you need another assistant?"
"No, Orange can handle it."
Wen Zhenni glanced at Orange.
Chengzi reacted and quickly raised her hand to express her opinion, "Don't worry, Sister Qin, I will work hard and won't let you down."
Qin Qing was actually not very satisfied with the girl's lack of experience in handling matters.
But after a short time together, it can be seen that she always thinks about Wen Zhenni and her attitude is still good. As for her abilities, she can still be trained.
"Then we'll see you next time." Qin Qing said, and signaled the driver to drive.
It’s hard to get a taxi in this place. Since Orange came here with us, he naturally followed us.
But my curiosity was not satisfied yet, and I felt like I was being scratched by a cat.
All we talked about during the day was work, and I never had a chance to interrupt. But when I got home at night, my curiosity couldn't be contained anymore, so I started gossiping about the person involved.
Chengzi: [Sister Zhenni, please tell me, is my brother-in-law the big boss I know?]
Wen Zhenni had just finished taking a shower and blow-drying her hair. When she saw Orange's message, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
Tap the screen with your fingertips: [You'll know next time you see me. I'll introduce myself to you then.]
As for whether he is a big boss...
Wen Zhenni looked at the warm yellow light coming from the bedroom and typed the next line of words.
【Not a big boss.】
[It’s a big guy. ]
After replying the message, Wen Zhenni casually tied up her long hair, hummed a song, and walked briskly back to the bedroom.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, her eyebrows were relaxed.
Under the lamp, a man in a loosely tied robe sat on a velvet double sofa, a tablet on his lap, looking at the company's first quarter report.
Hearing her humming, his brows relaxed unconsciously, "Are you that happy?"
"I'm happy."
Wen Zhenni sat down beside him, wrapped her arm around his, and leaned her head against his shoulder. Her eyes fell on the densely packed text on the screen, and she said with a hint of pouting, "You're still working so late."
"Just take a look."
Ci Heng responded softly, his eyes still on the screen. He just raised his chin slightly and rubbed the top of her soft hair, "Did you meet the agent this afternoon?"
"I've met her. She's a sister with a unique personality."
If you like it, you like it. If you don’t like it, you can’t force yourself to say you like it.
Wen Zhenni expressed her admiration for Qin Qing without hesitation, "Her personality suits my taste."
Ciheng rubbed the top of her head, "It was Jiang Zhuofan who pulled the strings. I owe him a favor."
Wen Zhenni laughed and teased, "Do Slavs also honor debts of gratitude?"
"Wherever there are people, there is society, and we must respect human feelings and treat each matter separately."
Ciheng turned off the tablet and rubbed her head vigorously, "Do you understand, idiot?"
The man's palms were broad and thick, and although they felt comfortable to touch, Wen Zhenni always felt something was strange.
She turned her head away from his hand, "Every time you touch my head, it's like touching a dog."
Ci Heng lowered his head and smiled sullenly, then rubbed the top of her head, "Aren't you just a happy puppy?"
This sounds even stranger.
"Puppy" is obviously the nickname her fans give her. Ciheng has never paid attention to the entertainment industry and may not even remember the names of the characters she has played. How could she know this specific nickname?
It's a coincidence.
Wen Zhenni was thinking silently and trying to convince herself when Ciheng interrupted her thoughts again.
"Don't you want to get a dog? I'm free tomorrow, so I'll take you to pick out a good-looking one."
It had been so many days, she had forgotten about it long ago, yet he brought it up again.
"Let's not do that. Let's consider it after we have a baby."
Wen Zhenni shook her head slightly, her tone serious.
He said that if you have a dog, you have to be responsible for it. Once she starts working on her new drama, she won't be able to take care of it anymore.
After saying this, she felt that the topic had gone a bit off topic, so she lowered her eyelashes and played with his slender and powerful knuckles. "By the way, my mother ordered a skirt for me to wear on the day of the celebration."
She grabbed her phone, pulled out the saved pictures, and swiped through them to show Ci Heng, "Help me, which one is suitable for me?"
Zhuang Minghua's aesthetic is definitely luxurious, and he particularly loves the embellishment of shimmering gemstones.
Ciheng browsed through it and found that, as expected, the heavy embroidery and gemstone beads were his mother's usual style.
"The gold one."
She is rich and dazzling. At first glance, she is the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
Wen Zhenni didn't know what he was thinking. She tilted her head to examine it for a moment, then nodded slowly, "Alright, it's perfect to go with the sea pearls you gave me."
Taihua’s anniversary is only a few days away, and it’s time for her to start preparing seriously.
During the few days of rest at home, Qin Qing sent over the career planning documents. At the same time, many scripts were also handed to her.
Qin Qing compared and screened them once and kept the most suitable ones.
Among them was "Celebrity," produced by Zhong Xue. With top-notch investment, a meticulously crafted script, and a top-notch production team, it was a 100% sure-fire deal. There was no reason to turn it down.
However, the preparation time for Zhong Xue’s drama is quite long, and it is estimated that it will not start until the second half of the year.
As a top-tier artist, her gap period cannot be too long.
Being forgotten is fatal to an artist.
So Qin Qing’s opinion is to take on an idol drama to maintain the existing popularity in the fan circle.
I don't know if Qin Qing has confidence in himself, or if he really has confidence in her, but he didn't worry at all. "I'm optimistic about this idol drama. The script and production are fine, and there's a high probability that they can cast a top-tier male actor."
Wen Zhenni has acted in low-budget idol dramas, but this is her first time starring in such a large-scale production, so the pressure is actually quite great.
"Should I hire an acting teacher and give it a sprint?" she asked.
Qin Qing didn't demand it. "Don't stress yourself out. Take a good vacation, date, and when you're relaxed and in your best form, everything will work out."
in love……
With her husband who is so familiar to her?
This question is beyond the scope.
**
After comprehensive consideration by Qin Qing, she was finally given the opportunity to take on the drama "Exclusive Heartbeat".
The big IPs in romance novels are naturally popular and there is no shortage of discussion.
Qin Qing has no discrimination based on subject matter and values the matching degree between the role and the actor, as well as the completeness of the script the most.
She has worked with all the artists she has managed and has produced works that have received both high praise and popularity.
After Wen Zhenni got the script, she spent a few days to detach herself. It was well written and she was unknowingly drawn into the plot.
When I read to the end and closed the script, the sky outside was already dyed with a large sunset glow.
She stretched herself and walked to the window. As she was taking pictures of the sky, she saw a Bentley Mulsanne driving towards her in the driveway downstairs.
"Madam," the servant came in from outside and said, "The master has returned home. It's time to get ready to leave."
Today is the anniversary dinner, which starts at 7:30 and will last for another hour.
Wen Zhenni said she understood and went to change into her dress.
After finishing her makeup, Ciheng was changing clothes in front of the dressing mirror.
A black velvet suit with a dark patterned tie is a low-key and elegant style.
The man's already superior features became even more spirited, and his hostility and sharpness were subsided invisibly.
It is rare to see the elegant and ascetic style of Ciheng.
Wen Zhenni's eyes flashed with surprise, and she praised sincerely, "This suit is really nice."
Simple and neat, suitable for business and dinner parties.
"Is it just that the clothes look nice?" Ciheng snorted.
Wen Zhenni pursed her lips and smiled, "Of course it's because my husband is so handsome, a natural clothes hanger."
The back of his shirt collar was sticking up a little, so she stepped forward to help straighten it out.
Since she couldn’t reach him, Ciheng put her arm around his shoulders and pulled him in front of her to make it easier for her to move.
Ciheng looked at herself in the mirror and tidied up the hair that was scattered on her back.
Wen Zhenni buttoned up her suit and looked at it carefully, feeling like something was missing. "Wait a minute."
She opened the jewelry drawer and found the emerald brooch from the last auction.
Dinner parties are mainly for celebration and are not such serious occasions, so you can wear a brooch to decorate it.
Wen Zhenni pinned it on his tie.
Ciheng: "Are you sure you want me to wear this?"
"What's wrong? I think it looks good." Wen Zhenni was very satisfied.
Ciheng: "As long as you are happy."
Looking down at her dress, I realized it had a strappy back, exposing a large area of skin.
The weather in May was sometimes hot and sometimes cold. He stroked her back, which was a little cold. "The driver is waiting downstairs. Put on your coat before going out."
Whenever there are artists present, there will be various media outlets present, and usually they all have to go their separate ways.
Wen Zhenni and other invited artists need to arrive early, so they have to set off now.
Ciheng watched her leave the room, walked to the window, and watched her get into the nanny car.
When the car was out of sight, he put on his coat. When he lowered his eyes to adjust his sleeves, he saw his empty fingers and was stunned for a moment.
The servant went upstairs to tidy up the cloakroom and unexpectedly found that Ciheng had not left. She was looking at the drawer cabinet with a troubled look on her face, as if looking for something.
"Sir, what are you looking for? Do you need my help?" the servant asked respectfully.
Ciheng wanted to say no, but after looking up at the dazzling array of drawers, she reluctantly asked for help, "Do you know where my wife put her wedding ring?"
The servant smiled when he heard this and said, "It's in the Madam's treasure room. I'll go get it."
There were dedicated people to take care of the clothes and jewelry of both of them, and they knew exactly where each piece of jewelry was, so he found what he wanted quickly.
The wedding ring is not a customized couple's ring. Wen Zhenni's ring has a nice name, called "Pink Star Sea", which is a vivid pink diamond from South Africa.
In order to propose to the Jin family, the Ci family bought it for 30 million US dollars as Wen Zhenni's wedding ring.
His ring was designed based on the style of a women's ring. It was made of three-color gold from Qiyuan Jewelry and Minghua Jewelry, and was made into the shape of a entwined link. The initials of the two companies, JC, were engraved on the ring setting.
JC Destiny for Life series.
The intention is to establish a marriage between the two families and form a close relationship.
He took out his wedding ring, rubbed the groove on the inside of the ring with his fingertips, and then pushed the ring firmly into the ring finger of his left hand.
**
The 80th anniversary celebration of Taihua was also the inauguration ceremony of Tzuheng.
The chairman and his wife will also be present at this event.
Therefore, early this morning, Ci Shao and his wife, Ms. Zhuang Minghua, returned to Tianhai City.
As seven o'clock approached, invited representatives of partner companies and VIPs arrived one after another, as well as invited mainstream media, industry media, and some entertainment companies.
There were quite a few artists at the event, most of whom were collaborating with company brands.
Before the banquet started, Wen Zhenni and everyone else sat in the lounge waiting.
Rumors about the casting for "Exclusive Heartbeat" have already leaked online, and the discussion has been much higher than expected. As soon as Wen Zhenni appeared, she was pulled aside by celebrities in the circle to talk.
She excused herself to go to the bathroom and got out.
Today, Chengzi was extremely excited. "I've been catching up on the original novel lately. It's so sweet it's almost tooth-breaking. Sister, you must read the script carefully at home. I'm confident it will be a big hit."
These days, Assistant Orange is like a clockwork alarm, afraid that she will slack off, and reminds her every time she remembers.
Wen Zhenni's ears were almost callused from hearing this. "I'm urged to work more than 800 times a day. Even the donkeys in the production team wouldn't work like this."
Orange said with a smile: "I'm just afraid you'll forget!"
Seeing her so happy, Wen Zhenni smiled helplessly, "I'm impressed by you, let's go."
The time has come, it's time to enter. The two came out of the bathroom and walked towards the banquet hall.
Just as I turned the corner, I suddenly heard hurried footsteps from the entrance in front, accompanied by a lot of noise, and a group of people walked over with great momentum.
There were seven or eight staff members alone, surrounding the woman in the middle. The scene was so grand that it instantly caught everyone's attention.
The woman had big wavy chestnut hair and wore a bright red off-shoulder dress. She held her head high the whole time, with thin eyelids drooping. The high heels on her feet were like nails hammered into the ground, and the whole corridor was filled with sonorous echoes.
She didn't know how to avoid, and she actually pushed the person blocking her way away with her shoulder, and walked away with a domineering aura.
You could even hear her impatiently scolding the assistant beside her as she walked, "You're so clumsy, you can't even do a small thing right."
"Tsk, it's Yu Lanfei again." Cheng Zi, watching from the side, curled her lips and grumbled in a low voice, "Looking at her demeanor, if you didn't know better you'd think she was walking the Oscars red carpet. What a grand show."
Wen Zhenni just glanced at it lightly and didn't take it to heart at all.
After entering and taking a seat, she found that Yu Lanfei was sitting not far away. At this moment, she was holding a small mirror and touching up her makeup as if no one was around.
"What are you looking at?" Xi Miao came over and saw her staring at a woman. He smiled and joked, "It's not like you have such great genes that you're staring at her."
"nothing."
Wen Zhenni pulled her to sit beside her and casually glanced towards the main table in the front row. Sure enough, she saw her father Jin Xiao sitting in the most conspicuous seat.
Unfortunately, there were so many media at the scene and surrounded by cameras and cameras that it was not convenient to go over and say hello.
She picked up the wine glass that Xi Miao handed her and took a sip.
At this moment, Xi Miao suddenly leaned closer, glanced at a figure in front of him, and said mischievously, "It's no wonder you picked the genes. Apart from anything else, just looking at her looks and figure, she's even more eye-catching than those male stars..."
Wen Zhenni followed Xi Miao's gaze and saw the crowded entrance of the banquet hall. Ciheng was leading the senior executives of the headquarters and walking calmly into the side aisle.
His posture was tall and straight, and his broad shoulders and narrow waist were clearly visible under the perfectly tailored suit. Even when he was among a group of elites with extraordinary temperament, his aura still instantly attracted the attention of the whole audience.
We were so used to seeing each other every day that we didn't think it was anything special. But now, looking at her from behind, she was so fixed on his back that my heart was beating fast.
"Luckily it's my husband."
Xi Miao gently pinched her face, "You are so immodest."
Wen Zhenni turned her head to avoid her hand, deliberately keeping a straight face, "Don't pinch the female star's face."
As the guests gradually took their seats, the dinner officially began.
Tai Hwa’s energetic chairman, Tzu Thao, took the stage to deliver a speech and announced the group’s important decision, officially appointing Tzu Heng as the new CEO.
The spotlights suddenly converged, catching that dignified and elegant figure. Ciheng rose calmly and steadily to the podium, her voice echoing clearly and powerfully through the microphone throughout the banquet hall.
In his speech, he emphasized that the company's core strategy this year is to fully promote intelligent AI and accelerate the investment of cutting-edge AI technology in medical health and rescue facilities.
Although this inaugural speech was lengthy, it was not boring at all.
Under the stage, Wen Zhenni tilted her head slightly, her eyes following the figure under the spotlight.
She listened very carefully, and treasured almost every word he said in her heart.
The light and shadow outlined his focused and confident expression, and a different feeling quietly arose in Wen Zhenni's heart.
It turns out that this is what he looks like when he is full of vigor and vitality.
Even when he spoke calmly about the group's future plans and expectations, his voice was exceptionally sexy, so seductive that it made people's legs go weak.
At a certain moment, Wen Zhenni seemed to have returned to the time before her marriage, when her mother-in-law Zhuang Minghua held her hand and gently told her about Ciheng's growth.
The business tycoon Ci's family gave him a wealthy family background, and his ancestors, who were military and political masters, were responsible for his education and taught him how to be a good man.
From the moment he was born, he possessed heights that others might never be able to reach in their entire lives.
Children who grow up in such an environment reap all the benefits, and their words and actions are naturally more closely watched by the outside world.
His grandfather often warned him not to rely on his status to be the snow on the mountain, but to be a grain of dust on the barren land. He didn't have to have empathy, but he had to have compassion.
It sounds like empty words, but at this moment, they seem to become concrete.
Wen Zhenni did not deny that she was shocked and deeply attracted.
As he bowed in thanks and left the stage amid applause, she quickly unlocked her phone and aimed the camera at his back, capturing this precious moment.
"Post on Weibo?" Xi Miao, who was standing by, caught her little action and looked at her meaningfully.
"Yes." Wen Zhenni admitted generously, "It's very meaningful and must be commemorated."
After selecting the photos, she edited a Weibo post.
Wen Zhenni V: I saw the stars tonight.
