Chapter 50

Looking for a female anchor!

Still not coming home at night!

Mr. Shen quickly felt the crisis in his marriage shortly after his marriage.

Maybe he bought flowers to please people.

This is often seen in movies and TV dramas: people who betray their families usually have a short-lived sense of guilt.

The more Shen Mingzheng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

But when he looked at the beautiful bouquet of flowers, he felt an inexplicable rage in his heart but was reluctant to touch a finger, so he followed Su Ning and listened to him talking on the phone.

But Su Ning finished speaking a few words, then turned around and bumped into him.

"What are you doing?" Su Ning looked at him with his phone in hand, wondering, "Why are you blocking the way here?"

He pushed Shen Mingzheng, but he didn't move and didn't smile. He was tall and hard like a wall.

Su Ning came back from such a long distance and wanted to take a shower. He just took a step forward, but the other party hugged him back by the waist and leaned him against the wall, not letting him leave.

"What's wrong?" Su Ning felt an itch on his waist and couldn't help laughing, "Don't touch me there, stop making trouble."

He was exhausted after a day of work, and the itchy skin made him even weaker. He could only lean on Shen Mingzheng, and then he heard him ask three questions in a row: "Who are you looking for? Who did you meet last night? And, what female anchor was that just now?"

Before Su Ning left, he only said that they were discussing endorsements and business occasions. Shen Mingzheng still had to take care of Haicheng, so there was no need for the two of them to go together and make it such a grand occasion.

Now that he regrets it, he should have gone along.

"Ah, so that's why."

Su Ning understood.

He didn't push anyone away. Instead, he put his hand on Shen Mingzheng's shoulder, patted it slowly, and explained, "It's Ji Xue. I met Ji Xue yesterday."

Su Ning recalled what happened last night. While he was talking, he reached out and curled the ends of Shen Mingzheng's hair, whether consciously or unconsciously.

Who made his hand just happen to be there? It was just a natural thing.

"...I was really surprised," he finished quickly, then sighed, "I never expected to run into her there."

I didn't know she would become like this.

Shen Mingzheng: ...

That's right.

It is normal for Su Ning to care about the artists in the company.

In his previous life, he had too many handsome men, not just Lu Fei. Lu Fei was not even the most outstanding one. Shen Mingzheng didn't care much about other people's private lives, so naturally he wouldn't remember the names of everyone related to Ji Xue, and he had never thought of her before.

Su Ning's attitude makes people feel at ease. He is honest and has no secrets. The corners of Shen Mingzheng's mouth, which had been suppressed, curled up again.

After hearing this explanation, he did not retreat. At this moment, Su Ning was almost embraced by him. Then Su Ning leaned against the wall and asked him with a smile: "Are you still not happy? Why, do you suddenly feel that I am looking for someone outside?"

"No," Shen Mingzheng said stubbornly, "I was just worried and asked."

Although he said so, his actions were very honest. Not only did he not retreat, he even took a step forward.

Then the two of them were silent for a while.

Shen Mingzheng maintained this posture. When he lowered his head, he could see Su Ning's face right in front of him. His crow-feather-like eyelashes trembled, and there was a faint fragrance on his body, perhaps it was shower gel, or perhaps it was the scent of perfume on clothes, but the two of them had lived together for too long, and he had already recognized this smell.

The smell of lady's cigarettes lingers only on the coat; these things belong to this person.

"Is that so?" Su Ning stroked his hair, as if he was stroking a big cat. "I didn't realize before that Xiao Shen would always get angry about this. Well, it's my problem."

It is not just a business marriage, because couples who are from the same family only need to be harmonious on the surface, and they often turn a blind eye to each other's private lives.

But who would regard this as an ordinary marriage?

Then Su Ning became more serious and said, "Mingzheng, you don't have to worry about this. After all, we are married. I will maintain this relationship in all aspects. I don't have any habit of fooling around outside. I don't think you are interested in those things either."

Shen Mingzheng: ...

Actually, not entirely.

In this situation, Su Ning couldn't see Shen Mingzheng's expression, so he continued, "I met Ji Xue yesterday, and her incident reminded me that there is still a long way to go. At least the two of us need to stabilize first. During the period of this engagement, no matter who of us has any scandal, it will be very disadvantageous to both parties and the company. Don't worry, I know my limits, trust me."

Even without mentioning the sharp peak in front of them, there is also the silent and huge Shen family. He and Su Ning cannot make any mistakes, otherwise they will easily fall.

So Shen Mingzheng stopped, did nothing, and slowly took a step back.

Su Ning felt as if he had lightly stroked the side of his face when he stepped back, but he didn't care, and he didn't feel uncomfortable with Shen Mingzheng being so close to him.

"I know. I don't disbelieve you," Shen Mingzheng finally looked at him and said, "I will always stand with you."

Su Ning: “Yeah.”

He didn't think deeply about this relationship right now, because he really didn't have the time. He just felt that given the current situation between the two of them, there was no need to hide anything.

If there is any misunderstanding, just explain it. It's not like you don't have a mouth.

Now that it's clear, doesn't Shen Mingzheng look normal again?

For him, the other party is the best cooperation partner, and he is used to being with him and discussing everything with him, which is enough.

So many things happened yesterday. I drove all the way here in the morning, and when I saw him at home, everything became calm.

"When you called me yesterday, I was quite surprised, but also quite happy," Su Ning added, "Thank you."

Shen Mingzheng: "Next time you don't come home at night, I will still call you."

Su Ning couldn't help laughing, and then he left and took a quick shower as planned.

When he came out, Shen Mingzheng had already changed his clothes and was ready to go out for a meeting. He had an important meeting scheduled today, and the driver was waiting downstairs. He only waited until now at home because he wanted to meet Su Ning when he came back.

As soon as Su Ning came out, he heard Shen Mingzheng, who was about to go out, remind him: "By the way, do you want to search the name '積雪' on that platform?"

He added a patch to cover up: "She used this name as her social network nickname at the time, but she cancelled it at that time. Maybe she will use it again out of habit."

This was the stage name that Ji Xue used in her previous life, so there should be some connection. Shen Mingzheng didn't even know that she had been a host, and combined with what Su Ning just said, he had some ideas.

The name "Jixue" is not a unknown one, and she only has a few thousand fans on that small platform. It is normal not to find the name if you search it broadly, but if you add some qualifiers, it should be able to be found.

Su Ning immediately searched on his phone and seemed to have found some clues. His eyes lit up and he said, "Yes."

"That's good," Shen Mingzheng smiled. He put away his tie and seemed to have returned to his normal self. Then he said, "I'm leaving now. I'm going to the company for a meeting. If you have anything else, feel free to contact me."

Su Ning nodded and said yes, then asked him when he would be back in the evening so they could have dinner together.

"Probably not. I have a dinner party tonight and I really can't turn it down. If it's not over by 9 o'clock, I'll call you," Shen Mingzheng shook his head. He would also take the initiative to report, "I won't stay outside tonight and will definitely come back."

"Okay," Su Ning said, "I'll leave the light on for you. Let's make some medicinal tea tomorrow morning. I'll buy some when I go out. The weather has been cooler recently, and it will be more comfortable to drink in this weather."

Judging from this conversation, the two seem like a normal and happy old couple.

But at least not yet.

But for Shen Mingzheng, he didn't dare to ask for too much at this time. Being able to have such a life with Su Ning now was already a blessing that he could never have imagined in his previous life.

Because we truly treasure it, we do not dare to be greedy and are easily satisfied.

And he knew that there were still many heavy mountains pressing down on him, and if he wanted more, he had to keep climbing.

As for Su Ning, not long after Shen Mingzheng left, he had found the account named "Jixue".

For just a few dozen dollars, you can subscribe to all the content she posts on this not-so-famous platform.

As soon as he heard the voice, he knew it was Ji Xue.

Her reading voice is very pleasant. The scenes in the videos are very simple, such as making a cup of tea on the balcony. The camera records the tea being boiled little by little while she slowly recites a poem or a short story. Sometimes it is an English poem with standard pronunciation. Su Ning saw later that she even knows simple French and Italian.

Because there is no face showing and no promotion, the site is not very popular, but it sounds peaceful.

She doesn't have many fans, but Su Ning looked at the number of comments and likes below, which is higher than the conversion rate of the common short and fast videos. It can be seen that the subscription rate is good and she is particularly loyal.

Just based on this point, she already has some qualities of being a female star. However, even if she is found, Su Ning has no way to bring her back under the current circumstances.

If the other party really finds a soulmate and plans to stay as far away from the entertainment industry as possible, he will naturally bless them. Not everyone has to choose to stay in the entertainment industry.

But from what Ji Xue said yesterday, she had planned what happened to Liao Yuansi. Looking ahead, being with Lu Fei doesn't sound that easy.

If she really wanted to seek justice from Liao Yuansi, she would almost have to go against the entire Jianfeng. No matter how Su Ning thought about it, she felt that the matter was a bit suspenseful. Even though Lu Fei was rich, he was not from the entertainment industry after all. He might not intervene too much for Ji Xue. At most, he might change the endorsement or invest some money, which was already the limit.

Ji Xue...what on earth is she planning to do?

No matter how you look at what happened back then, Ji Xue was a pure victim.

Just looking at that face, if it weren't for those bad things, it could have had a bright future. Facing such experiences, Su Ning always felt sorry for it and he couldn't just stand by and watch.

Moreover, if things are really as Ji Xue said, then the Cha Yue endorsement that she "threw over to me for fun" when they had never met before is indeed of great significance to Glory.

The seven people's performance this time was still very eye-catching. They also happened to interpret several different types of tea drinks, including grapefruit green tea, oolong black tea, refreshing white tea, etc. Because they had a good chat with Lu Fei last time, the advertising department below did not dare to neglect it and put a lot of effort in every aspect.

With various endorsements for the brands "Cha Yue" and "Si Mu", Glory's popularity is growing.

Su Ning has more resources to contact for the team, such as endorsements, variety shows, evening parties, etc. Shen Mingzheng's album production is coming to an end. In addition to contacting various music promotion programs in advance, after the new song comes out, the planned national tour must also be put on the agenda.

He was very busy, but when he felt tired, he could talk to Shen Mingzheng, and look at the seven young people in the small group playing and making noise, and he would feel not so tired anymore.

The only slightly unpleasant thing about leaving so much good news was that there was some conflict between the fans and Liao Yuansi’s fans, and they had a fight.

The cause was "Cha Yue". As a middle school student, Liao Yuansi also has many fans. Although strictly speaking, the positioning of the two sides is completely different, there is no point in arguing about this.

This side is complaining about overstepping one's authority and that side is complaining about just an endorsement. It's not us who are feeling wronged. Aren't we allowed to fight back when the senior fans are scolding others? Even some marketing accounts that are looking to stir up trouble have followed suit, just to make things more exciting.

From Su Ning's perspective, the endorsement has already been obtained, and there is no need for fans to quarrel with the other party. Moreover, if the noise is made too loud, it may be that they have fallen into a trap of others. There is no point in winning the quarrel.

No matter what Liao Yuansi is like, his current image is still a very positive senior. From the perspective of passers-by, quarreling with seniors in the industry is likely to leave a bad impression.

Normally the official will not intervene directly when fans quarrel. At this juncture, he scheduled the second episode of the group show for the next day.

When Glory received the news and reviewed the script with the director's team the night before, all seven of them were a little surprised.

It's time to shoot the second episode. Everyone feels that the group show at this point should be a warm-up for the album, with the hidden meaning of diverting fans' attention and not prolonging the quarrel.

They might shoot some training scenes or something, they are all prepared, but the content above looks too simple.

"It's like this. You've been very busy since your debut and haven't had a break. Tomorrow you'll have a short break and it'll be very relaxing," the director said. "Tomorrow is a day off. Go out shopping in the morning and arrange the rest of the time. But there's just a simple mission, plus a few small games. There will be guests coming over in the evening, and they've ordered the dishes they want to eat. You need to prepare in advance to entertain them, right here in this house."

...Does this Roll King team really sound so kind?

That sounds suspicious.

Lin Zhixian asked, "Is this guest someone we know?"

"Yes," the director team replied, "but who they are, there are several people, and we have to keep it secret for now. You can find out who they are before they arrive through some simple games."

But since they are people we know, they must be friends or something, and entertaining friends in a house is also a common variety show form.

Since they are all people I know, I will definitely feel more relaxed.

It does sound very relaxing.

"Why don't I see Mr. Su?" Zhou Heng looked around and asked again, "Isn't he coming?"

Everyone else wanted to ask this question. It was a little strange that Su Ning was not around at this time.

The director replied: "Mr. Su is too busy. He has been out of town lately and can't come back. The group guest for this episode is Mr. Shen Mingzheng, the young manager of Shen's Film Company."

Everyone: “Oh~”

This suspicion lasted until the next morning, when it disappeared.

This time, the program crew, led by Xiao Shen, seemed really kind. They prepared a car for them so they could go out to purchase, and also gave them some funds, saying that today's purchases could only be paid for from this source.

The head of the family is not around, so I don’t have to spend my own money. That’s great!

Although it was a little bit of a mini-game, it was also quite simple. For example, Ji Mowei, who lost the mini-game, had to carry Li Chu, who won first place in the game, to go shopping in the supermarket. Li Chu, who was carried on someone's back without touching the ground, was quite happy at first, and then said, "I'm very light, right? Hehe."

Ji Mowei weighed it and said honestly: "Not really, it feels a little heavier than during the competition."

There is also this kind of little game of carrying someone on one's back in the fourth picture.

Li Chu was furious: "...You are talking nonsense! You lost the game and you are jealous and slandering me!"

Ji Mowei: "Ha, who knows who is the little pig."

Although he said this, he was still walking briskly with Li Chu on his back.

This supermarket was open for business, and the filming was agreed upon, but the area was not cleared. However, because it is near Xiangshan Villa and is positioned in the middle to high-end, there were not many people at this time during the day on weekdays, but there were still some customers.

Li Chu was carried on someone's back for a while and was particularly easy to be watched by onlookers. He was recognized immediately. Passersby who saw him taking pictures did not come forward, but held up their phones to take pictures.

He felt a little embarrassed, and his toes began to curl up. He quickly felt embarrassed, as if he had no legs, and it was not very comfortable to carry someone on his back for a long time, and then he whispered, "Why don't you put me down? Well, didn't you just say that I was a little heavy? I'm doing this for your own good, so be grateful."

"How can that be possible!" E-man Ji Mowei faced all the attention as if he was in a place where no one was watching, his expression was normal, "If you lose, you lose. It's not time yet, how can you break the rules?"

Li Chu: ...

Very annoying.

He clearly won the game, but he felt like he had lost.

The seven of them have lived together for a long time now and are very familiar with each other. It is common for them to play around with each other. However, they have to be more serious in front of the formal cameras at various activities. It is impossible for them to make a fuss or play jokes in such occasions.

But today's group theme is leisure, and once they relax and spend time together, they will seem more natural. This is actually their usual state, which has never been recorded or released before.
