In the midnight bar, young night owls swayed their bodies on the dance floor. The shining lights, hazy music, and the band's infectious singing pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
Wen Xi avoided the crowd, walked down the aisle with a frown, and came to a private room. He checked his identity with the waiter, and the waiter respectfully opened the door for him.
On the high-end sofa in the box, several people were sitting lazily. Four young men were holding wine glasses in their hands, with charming young masters and young ladies leaning beside them, flirting and chatting. When they heard the door open, they stopped talking and looked at the handsome young man who came in.
"Wenxi?" The man in the middle put down his glass, smiled, and stood up to greet him. "Finally, you're here. I called you four or five times, and you kept saying you were busy. What were you busy with? It's so hard to see you!"
"As an errand boy." Wen Xi shook hands with the man. "Grandpa wants to settle down in S City. I'm helping him find a suitable house."
The man raised his eyebrows. "Come to me if you want to buy a house! I have a friend in real estate who has developed several high-end residential communities in S City. We have whatever kind of house you want."
Wen Xi looked at the handsome man who was so close to her and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you."
He and the other party were just netizens who met in the game. By chance, they added each other as friends. After getting to know each other better, he learned that the other party was the son of the Li family in S City, named Li Ting, 23 years old. He currently had a sinecure in his own company. He was proficient in eating, drinking and having fun, but had no lofty ideals except picking up girls.
Wenxi disdains to associate with such people.
However, due to his status as the son of the Li family, Wen Xi reluctantly made friends with him. He was urged to make four or five phone calls and had to come to socialize.
He is indeed a tasteless rich second generation. It is uncomfortable to meet him in a noisy and vulgar bar.
"Mr. Li, wouldn't you like to introduce yourself?" The other men sitting on the sofa looked at them with interest.
"Bai Wenxi, from Country M. We met in Qiankun Sword Game and are a good pair for dungeon raids." Li Ting affectionately pulled Wenxi and introduced the men sitting on the sofa from left to right. "Yu Qiang, Qiao Zhengwen, Shen Wei, Su Dan, they are all my classmates and good friends."
Wen Xi politely greeted them one by one. When he heard "Su Dan", he couldn't help but look at him twice more.
Su Dan was sensitive. He gently shook the wine glass in his hand, narrowed his amorous eyes, and asked with a smile on his face, "Have we met before?"
Wen Xi said hurriedly: "No, no... I have a friend whose last name is also Su, so..."
He lowered his head slightly, wanting to say something but stopping himself, looking a little pitiful. Li Ting stepped forward and defended him, saying, "Wen Xi is a thin-skinned man. Don't bully him!"
Su Dan looked at him provocatively: "Are you going to be a flower protector?"
Li Ting patted his shoulder and said, "Go away! Put away your dirty thoughts. We are good brothers and good partners!"
The others laughed, the box was filled with joy, the atmosphere was just right, Li Ting poured Wen Xi a glass of wine and handed it to him.
"Come, let's celebrate our success!"
Wen Xi elegantly clinked her cup against his and took a small sip. Li Ting was so enthusiastic that he put his arm around Wen Xi's shoulders and kept talking, chatting about interesting things in the game and the dark histories of several friends. Wen Xi was gradually integrated into this small group under his guidance.
"Huh? Su Dan, does the person in this video look like your cousin?" Qiao Zhengwen put the phone in front of Su Dan and played the video.
In the video, a handsome young man wearing a straw hat is standing in a paddy field, bending over and groping in a basket. After a while, he catches a struggling fish in his hand, and shows it to the camera with a smug smile on his face.
"Dangdangdang, I successfully caught a rice fish. Let's see if it's fat and big. If you are interested, please go to my online store and place an order!"
Su Dan stared at the video intently, his eyes as sharp as a sword, almost piercing through Qiao Zhengwen's mobile phone screen.
Wen Xi was surprised to hear the familiar voice.
Several other people came over and watched the video intently.
"He really looks like your cousin! What's his name? Su...Su..."
"Su Ling!"
"Yes, yes, it's Su Ling! The Su family's most handsome man!"
"Impossible?" Yu Qiang asked doubtfully, "Didn't Su Ling marry into a wealthy family? Why would she be doing farm work in the countryside?"
"I also think it's unlikely. It must be someone who looks similar." Shen Wei touched his chin. Su Ling came from a wealthy family and was the young lady of the Lin family. How could she condescend to do rough labor in the countryside?
Su Dan didn't say anything.
He and Su Ling have been cousins for twenty years and are familiar with each other. They recognized each other at a glance, but they were so surprised that they were a little stunned.
How could he not know what kind of person Su Ling is?
She has been pampered since childhood and has a delicate personality. She will cry for a long time when she encounters something wrong. She has always been particular about her taste in dressing, but now she is dressed like this and is standing in the mud to catch fish.
Li Ting, with his sharp eyes, spotted a familiar figure in the corner of the video. He took a closer look and cried out, "Wait! Could that man behind be the president of the Lin Group?!"
As soon as he shouted, everyone crowded together and scrambled to look at the phone.
"No way? If the president of Lin Group is here too, then this person is really Su Ling?"
"Is this couple in the countryside experiencing rural life?"
"Haha, they have such a good relationship. President Lin dotes on his wife so much."
"Do you all know Mr. Lin?"
"Not really acquaintance, I saw him from a distance at the banquet."
"What is Su Ling doing, helping farmers sell their agricultural products?"
"Charity? Interesting."
While the others were discussing, Wen Xi looked at Su Ling in the video with a complicated expression. He clenched the tall wine glass in his hand and asked Su Dan as if he had suddenly realized something, "So Su Ling is your cousin?"
Upon hearing this, Su Dan said with a gloomy expression, "The friend named Su you just mentioned, is he him?"
Wen Xi seemed not to notice the coldness in his words and said nonchalantly, "Yes, last month, my grandfather and I went to H City to visit relatives and friends, and met Su Ling in Shixi Village at the foot of Phoenix Mountain. He said that the elder of the Su family passed away recently, and the ancestral property was left to him."
"Ancestral property?" Su Dan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't know our Su family had ancestral property in Phoenix Mountain?"
"Ah? So you didn't know?" Wen Xi said, "My grandfather said that the Su family's ancestral home is in Shixi Village. They are wealthy and there are many antiques in the ancestral house, which are worth tens of millions!"
"Wow! Antiques?" Li Ting asked Su Dan in surprise, "Didn't Su Ling cut ties with the Su family? How could he inherit the family fortune?"
Su Dan frowned and did not reply.
Wen Xi lowered his head to drink, smiling faintly.
Early in the morning, Lidya Su got up full of energy.
Last night, Lin Feng massaged me for half an hour, and I felt relaxed and slept soundly. When I went downstairs to the living room, I was startled to see Su Qi with dark circles under her eyes.
"Xiao Qi, did you not sleep well last night?"
This shouldn't be the case. I urged her to go to bed early last night, but why is she so tired now?
Su Qi looked at her brother, who was full of concern, and the tall man beside him. Her ears felt hot and she said unnaturally, "Change...change place. I haven't adapted yet and I'm a bit attached to my bed."
How could she say that she couldn't sleep because she heard the voices of her brother and his partner Jiangjiangnianniao in the middle of the night?
Su Ling naturally didn't know about her conflicting thoughts and thought she was really attached to her bed. He said gently, "Thank you for your hard work. Just hold on for a few more days. You can go back to the city after filming the commercial."
Su Qi nodded and said, "I will try my best to adapt!"
Su Ling looked at his watch and said, "It's half past six now. Your appointment with Director Dou is at eight o'clock, right? I'll go make breakfast first. After we finish eating, I'll go with you."
"Oh, okay, brother." Su Qi sat obediently on the chair in the living room and stroked the tabby cat resting on the coffee table.
"Woof woof~" King wagged his tail happily when he saw his owner.
Su Ling looked down at it: "I know you are hungry, don't rush it."
He went to the kitchen to get cat food and dog food, fed the two little pets first, and then made breakfast.
Early in the morning, Director Dou sent Su Qi a new script. She had nothing to do, so she lowered her head to look at her phone and silently memorized her lines. However, there was a person sitting opposite her who could not be ignored, and her attention always drifted over involuntarily.
Would you like to say hello?
But it was so difficult for her to call the other person "Brother Lin"!
Woo~
And the other person's expressionless look was a bit scary.
Su Qi unconsciously tapped the ground with her toes, hesitating and hesitating.
However, while she was still hesitating, the other party spoke first.
"Like acting?"
Lin Feng's voice was calm, and no emotion could be heard from it.
Su Qi was stunned for a moment, then sat up straight and replied with a stiff upper lip, "Yes... yes."
Lin Feng asked again: "Do you have an agent?"
Su Qi shook her head like a wave drum. "No, I'm only a freshman, and my priority right now is studying."
Film academy students only have the opportunity to take on outside work in their sophomore year, and some well-off families have agents assigned to them early on. Although Su's family is wealthy, they don't support her entering the entertainment industry, so her family couldn't find an agent for her. Everything depends on her own hard work.
Lin Feng said "hmm" and said nothing more.
Su Qi didn't understand what he meant, but when she saw him typing on his phone, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere in the living room was awkward, and Su Qi felt very uncomfortable. She was not relieved until Su Ling came out and called them to have breakfast.
At the dinner table, perhaps because the couple had telepathy, Su Ling also mentioned the issue of the agent.
"Xiao Qi, do you have an agent you're interested in?"
"Ah? No." Su Qi finished drinking the milk and licked the corner of her lips.
Su Ling turned around and asked Lin Feng: "I remember that Senior Meng has a well-known entertainment agency under his name. What was it called?"
Lin Feng said: "Ruihuang Entertainment."
Su Ling nodded: "Yes, Ruihuang Entertainment Company, does Xiaoqi know it?"
"Rui...Ruihuang!" Of course Su Qi knew! This was the largest entertainment company in the country, and many celebrities were desperate to get in. Her senior, Jiang Aili, was lucky enough to sign with Ruihuang Entertainment, which made many people envious and jealous.
Su Ling knew from her expression that Ruihuang Entertainment was a good company. "If you like this company, I'll have Lin Feng contact Senior Meng and set you up with him."
"This..." Su Qi was both excited and reserved. She hesitated and asked cautiously, "Will it be troublesome?"
"You are my sister, how could it be troublesome?" Su Ling said with a smile, "right, Lin Feng?"
Lin Feng said: "I'll call Sen Ze later."
Su Ling put down the spoon, wiped the corner of his mouth gracefully, and instructed: "Make sure he finds the best agent for Xiao Qi."
Lin Feng looked at him gently: "Don't worry."
Su Qi bit into the sandwich, feeling warm inside. It's so nice to have a brother!
After breakfast, Su Ling left Lin Feng at home and took his sister to find Director Dou. After meeting, the group set off for the tea mountain.
When they arrived at the foot of the tea mountain, they ran into tea farmers going up the mountain to work. Su Ling found someone who was familiar with the terrain of the tea mountain to serve as a tour guide for the advertising crew.
"Uncle Qin, thank you for your help."
"No problem, no problem, hehe." Uncle Qin was in his fifties, tall and strong, full of energy, and his age was not visible at all. He looked at the group of young people carrying equipment and was worried about their physical strength. "To find a beautiful place, we have to climb at least 300 meters high. Can you handle it?"
Director Dou pushed up his glasses and asked the crew, "Is this okay with everyone?"
"Okay!" Twenty or so people shouted in unison.
Director Dou then asked Su Qi, "How is Ms. Su's physical condition?"
Su Qi smiled and said, "I usually exercise and go hiking with friends."
Su Ling said: "Xiao Qi is a black belt in karate, so her physical strength will definitely be no problem."
Black belt in karate?
Others were shocked.
Su Qi's lips curled up slightly as she said modestly, "I'm only a first-degree black belt, unlike my brother who's a third-degree black belt."
It’s pretty cool to be able to reach first black belt, okay?
This brother and sister look pretty and well-mannered on the surface, but they are incredibly powerful!
Can’t afford to offend! Can’t afford to offend!
Uncle Qin didn't know the difference between karate and no karate, but as long as they had the strength to climb the mountain, everything would be fine. Led by him, the group started up the mountain one after another.
Su Ling watched them go up the mountain and then turned back.
There are still many things waiting for him to do today.
When he got home, he saw a familiar luxury car parked on the basketball court. Lin Feng, dressed in formal attire, was standing in front of the door and talking to Zhan Yang.
"Are you going out?" Su Ling walked over and asked.
"Well, let's go to the town to handle some business." Lin Feng said.
"What's the matter?" Su Ling naturally reached out to help him straighten his tie.
Lin Feng leaned over and kissed his forehead, then said in a low voice, "They've acquired the Hyatt Hotel, and they need my signature."
"Ah?" Su Ling opened his beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked in confusion, "Why did you suddenly acquire it?"
He had a deep memory of this hotel. The last time he went to the town to sell loquats, he passed by Lin Feng at the door of the hotel.
"We need an office to develop the Liuxian River Corridor. The Hyatt Hotel has a good environment and location." Lin Feng said, "After the renovation, if you get tired of staying in the village, you can stay in the hotel."
Su Ling smiled: "Okay! Come back for lunch?"
Lin Feng frowned. "Maybe I won't be able to come back."
Su Ling stretched out her slender fingers and poked his eyebrows. "Don't frown, it's going to become a Sichuan character here. I'll make you something delicious when you come back tonight."
"Okay." Lin Feng kissed him on the lips reluctantly, "Don't tire yourself out. Hire a few people to work with you."
"I know. You should go quickly. Zhan Yang is getting impatient waiting." Su Ling pushed him with a smile on his face.
Zhan Yang, who was forced to eat a meal of dog food, maintained a decent smile.
As Mr. Lin’s assistant, I have gradually become accustomed to such scenes!
After the car drove away, Su Ling sighed at the door. It had rained in the middle of the night and stopped in the early morning. The ground on the basketball court was still wet, making it unsuitable for drying the millet.
He smoothed his curly hair, went back to the house, changed into a set of light clothes, put on a straw hat, and decided to go to the fields to continue fishing.
It’s so difficult to ship tens of thousands of orders!
The author has something to say: This is to make up for yesterday's. Woo~~ I'll try to update today's in the evening!
