In the midnight bar, young night owls swayed their bodies on the dance floor. The flashing lights, the dreamy music, and the band's infectious singing pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
Wen Xi avoided the crowd, walked in the aisle with a frown, came to a private room, confirmed his identity with the waiter, and the waiter respectfully opened the door for him.
A few people were sitting lazily on the high-end sofa in the private room. Four young men were holding wine glasses in their hands, with the 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 but you kept saying you were busy. What are 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 and said, "Come to me if you want to buy a house! I have a friend who is in the real estate business and has developed several high-end residential areas in S City. I have all the houses you want."
Wen Xi looked at the handsome man who was so close to her and said with a smile, "Sorry to bother you."
He and the other party were just netizens who met in the game. By coincidence, 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, currently working in his own company as a part-time worker. He was good at eating, drinking and having fun, but had no lofty ideals except picking up girls.
Wen Xi 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 over to socialize.
He is indeed a tasteless rich second-generation. It is uncomfortable to meet him in a noisy and vulgar bar.
"Mr. Li, would you like to introduce yourself to me?" The other men sitting on the sofa looked at them with interest.
"Bai Wenxi, from Country M. We met in Qiankun Sword Game. We are a good match for going to dungeons together." Li Ting took Wenxi's hand affectionately 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 curled mouth: "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, hesitating to speak, looking a little pitiful. Li Ting stepped forward and defended him, saying, "Wen Xi is a thin face, you guys should not bully him!"
Su Dan looked at him provocatively: "Are you going to be a flower protector?"
Li Ting patted his shoulder and said, "Go to hell! Put away your dirty thoughts. We are good brothers and we are good partners!"
The others laughed, and 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 on, let's celebrate our successful gang bang!"
Wen Xi clinked her cup with his elegantly and took a small sip. Li Ting was too enthusiastic, holding Wen Xi's shoulders and talking non-stop, talking about interesting things in the game and the dark history of several friends. Wen Xi was led by him to gradually integrate into this small group.
"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 grabs a fish in his hand and shows it to the camera with a smug smile on his face.
'Ding ding ding, 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 the screen of Qiao Zhengwen's mobile phone.
Wen Xi was surprised when he heard 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 most handsome person in the Su family!"
"Impossible?" Yu Qiang asked doubtfully, "Didn't Su Ling marry into a wealthy family? Why is she doing farm work in the countryside?"
"I also think it's unlikely. It should be someone who looks like her." Shen Wei touched his chin. Su Ling was born into a wealthy family and was the young lady of the Lu 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 first sight, but 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 very tasteful in her dressing, but now she is dressed like this and is standing in the mud to catch fish.
Li Ting was sharp-eyed and found a familiar figure in the corner of the video. He looked closely and shouted, "Wait! Could the man behind be the president of the Lu Group?!"
As soon as he shouted, everyone crowded together and scrambled to look at their phones.
"No way? If the president of the Lu Group is here too, then this person is really Su Ling?"
"This couple is in the countryside, experiencing rural life?"
"Haha, they have such a good relationship. President Ru is so doting on his wife."
"You all know Mr. Lu?"
"Not really acquaintance, I saw him from a distance at a banquet."
"What is Su Ling doing, helping farmers sell their produce?"
"Charity? Interesting."
While the others were discussing, Wen Xi looked at Su Ling in the video with a complicated expression, 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?"
Su Dan heard this and said gloomily, "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 eldest of the Su family passed away recently, and the ancestral property was left to him to inherit."
"Ancestral property?" Su Dan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't know that our Su family had any ancestral property in Fenghuang Mountain?"
"Ah? So you didn't know?" Wen Xi said, "My grandfather said that the Su family's ancestral home is in Shixi Village. The family is wealthy. There are many antiques in the ancestral house, which are worth tens of millions of dollars!"
"Wow! Antiques?" Li Ting asked Su Dan in surprise, "Didn't Su Ling cut ties with the Su family? How come he inherited the family property?"
Su Dan frowned and did not reply.
Wen Xi lowered his head to drink, smiling faintly.
Early in the morning, Su Ling got up full of energy.
Last night, I had Lu Feng massage me for half an hour, and I felt relaxed and slept soundly. When I went downstairs to the living room, I was shocked to see Su Qi with dark circles under his eyes.
"Xiao Qi, did you not sleep well last night?"
Shouldn't she? I urged her to go to bed early last night, why is she so listless?
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'm not used to it for a while. I'm a bit attached to my bed."
How could she say that she couldn't sleep because she heard the sounds of her brother and his partner, Jiangjiang, making love in the middle of the night?
Su Ling was unaware of her contradictory thoughts and thought she really liked her bed, so he said gently, "Thank you for your hard work. Just hold out for a few more days and you can go back to the city after you finish 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. You and Director Dou agreed to meet at eight o'clock, right? I'll go make breakfast first, and then I'll go with you after we finish eating."
"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 and said, "I know you're hungry, don't rush me."
He went to the kitchen to get cat 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 the lines. However, there was a person sitting opposite her who could not be ignored, and her attention always drifted over to him involuntarily.
Would you like to say hello?
But it's so difficult for her to call the other person "Brother Lu"!
Woo~
And the other person's expressionless look was a bit scary.
Su Qi tapped the ground with his toes unconsciously, hesitating.
However, while she was still struggling, the other party spoke first.
"Like acting?"
Rufeng's voice was indifferent, and no emotion could be heard.
Su Qi was stunned for a moment, then he sat up straight and replied, "Yes... yes."
Lu 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 school students only have the opportunity to take on outside work when they are in their sophomore year. Some of those with better family conditions will have agents assigned to them early on. Although Su's family is rich, they do not support her entering the entertainment industry, so it is impossible for her family to find an agent for her. Everything depends on her own hard work.
Lu Feng just 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 until Su Ling came out and called them to have breakfast, and she was finally relieved.
At the dinner table, perhaps because the couple had a telepathic connection, Su Ling also mentioned the issue of the agent.
"Does Xiao Qi have any agent candidates in mind?"
"Ah? No." Su Qi finished drinking the milk and licked the corner of his lips.
Su Ling turned to ask Lu Feng: "I remember that Senior Meng has a well-known entertainment agency under his name. What is it called?"
Rufeng said: "Emperor Rui is entertaining."
Su Ling nodded: "Yes, Ruihuang Entertainment Company, does Xiaoqi know about it?"
"Rui...Ruihuang!" Of course Su Qi knew it! This is the largest entertainment company in the country. Many stars are trying their best to squeeze in. Her senior Jiang Aili was lucky enough to sign with Ruihuang Entertainment, which made many people envious and jealous.
Su Ling saw her expression and knew that Ruihuang Entertainment was good. "If you like this company, I'll let Lu Feng contact Senior Meng and make some connections for you."
"This..." Su Qi was both excited and reserved. She hesitated and asked cautiously, "Will it be troublesome?"
"You are my sister, how can you be in trouble?" Su Ling said with a smile, "Right, Lu Feng?"
Lu Feng said: "I'll call Sen Ze later."
Su Ling put down the spoon, wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully, and instructed: "Make sure he finds the best agent for Xiao Qi."
Lu Feng looked at him gently: "Don't worry."
Su Qi bit into the sandwich, feeling warm inside. It's great to have a brother!
After breakfast, Su Ling left Lu Feng at home and took his sister to find Director Dou. After meeting, the group set out for the tea mountain.
When they arrived at the foot of the tea mountain, they happened to see 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 guide for the advertising crew.
"Uncle Qin, I'm sorry to bother you."
"No problem, no problem, hehe." Uncle Qin is in his fifties, tall and strong, energetic, and doesn't look old at all. He looked at a group of young people carrying equipment, but was worried about their physical strength. "To find a place with beautiful scenery, you 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?"
"Okay!" Twenty or so people shouted in unison.
Director Dou asked Su Qi again: "How is Ms. Su's physical condition?"
Su Qi smiled: "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, and he said modestly, "I'm just a first degree black belt, unlike my brother who is a third degree black belt."
It’s pretty awesome to be able to reach first black belt, okay?
This brother and sister look pretty and well-mannered on the surface, but who would have thought that they are so powerful!
Can't afford to offend! Can't afford to offend!
Uncle Qin didn't know anything about karate, but as long as they had the strength to climb the mountain, everything would be fine. Led by him, the group slowly climbed up the mountain.
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. Lu 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 take care of some business." Lu Feng said.
"What's the matter?" Su Ling naturally reached out to help him straighten his tie.
Lu Feng leaned over and kissed his forehead, and said in a low voice: "They have acquired Hyatt Hotel, and they need me to sign."
"Ah?" Su Ling stared at her beautiful peach blossom eyes and asked in confusion, "Why did you suddenly buy it?"
He had a deep memory of this hotel. The last time he went to the town to sell loquats, he passed by Lu 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." Lu Feng said, "After it's renovated, you can stay in the hotel if you get tired of staying in the village."
Su Ling smiled: "Okay! Come back for lunch?"
Lu Feng frowned. "Maybe I won't be able to come back."
Su Ling stretched out her slender fingers and poked his forehead. "Don't frown, it will become a Sichuan character. I'll make you something delicious when you come back tonight."
"Okay." Lu 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. Rui's assistant, I have gradually become accustomed to such scenes!
After the car drove away, Su Ling stood at the door and sighed. It rained in the middle of the night and stopped in the early morning. The ground of the basketball court was still wet and not suitable for drying the millet.
She smoothed her 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 hard to ship tens of thousands of orders!
