Whether we divorce or not, I hope he can live a good life. His talent has been buried for too long.
The child in Jia Cheng's arms raised his eyes and gave Jian Yu a cute smile.
Jian Yu's heart softened immediately. "Okay."
Jia Cheng's eyes instantly welled up with tears. "Thank you."
Jian Yu said, "You should take the child back to the hospital right away!"
Jia Cheng looked down and shook the child's little hand, "Say goodbye to your sister."
The little girl smiled and buried her face in Jia Cheng's arms.
Jia Cheng said, "The child is embarrassed."
Jian Yu reached out and waved to her, "Goodbye."
The little girl glanced at Jian Yu secretly, then hid her face and said in a very soft voice, "Goodbye, sister."
Jian Yu said, "Let's go too!"
He didn't say goodbye to He Xing when he left.
He Xing moved his injured foot and cursed under his breath, "What bad luck."
Assistant: "Should we call Director He and have him go to the hospital?"
He Xing said irritably, "From now on, I will not have any further contact with him except for work-related matters."
The assistant nodded. "Okay. Anyway, we don't have any official business to discuss with him."
He Xing: "Of course there is! Isn't there a new movie playing right here?"
The assistant said, "Jian Yu really invested? I think she was just being polite."
He Xing wasn't sure either. "Qing Tian introduced this movie to Jian Yu. I don't know what kind of person she is, but judging from her behavior just now, she doesn't seem to be the kind of person who is only after profit."
Assistant: "But Director He's performance just now has already cost him a lot of points. I observed very carefully, and Jian Yu's eyes showed obvious disdain. If you and Jia Cheng hadn't spoken up for him, I estimate that Jian Yu would have made Director He feel utterly ashamed."
He Xing nodded in agreement, "Let alone Jian Yu, I was just about to say a few more words to him."
The assistant said, "I never expected that Director He, who is so strict at work, would be so terrible in his personal life. I really don't know how Jia Cheng managed to get along with him for so many years?"
Aside from his talent, he is utterly useless.
He Xing blushed with embarrassment, feeling relieved once again that her relationship had ended too soon.
Jian Yu was on his way home when Hu Xiu suggested they go see a movie.
Jian Yu said, "Let's do it another day!"
Hu Xiu, "So, tomorrow?"
Jian Yu, “…” Can’t you tell this is a rejection?
How could Hu Xiu not understand? It's just that if he didn't do this, he wouldn't have any chance to make contact at all.
Lin Beichen: "There's a sci-fi blockbuster coming out tomorrow, let's go see it tomorrow!"
Jian Yu nodded, "Okay."
Hu Xiu: "Then it's settled. See you at the cinema at seven tomorrow."
"good."
After they parted ways at the intersection, Lin Beichen asked, "Why are you still bothering Jian Yu?"
Hu Xiu said, "I think Jian Yu should understand my hobbies very well. If we can be together, it will be more than just having another companion. My parents won't worry about me being alone in my old age because of my hobbies. If we have children in the future, we can take them on adventures together."
"You're already thinking about the child?"
"Nonsense, like-minded partners are so rare, of course you can't give up when you find one."
"The key point is that Jian Yu never said she was interested in you or your hobbies."
“You don’t understand, do you? Jian Yu’s personality is that if she likes someone, she will definitely respect that person and do a lot for them.” Hu Xiu glanced at Lin Beichen. “Jian Yu is not like Susan, a woman who only takes from her partner. She is willing to give to her partner. My mother is that kind of person, so my father often tells me to find someone like my mother who is willing to give love.”
Lin Beichen paused for a moment, then said, "What you said makes a lot of sense."
Hu Xiu said with great pride, "Of course, my parents are so happy, I've known how to find a partner since I was little."
Lin Beichen: "No wonder you didn't approve of me being with Susan before."
Hu Xiu punched Lin Beichen on the shoulder, "You have the nerve to say that? I was so angry with you back then."
Lin Beichen turned his face away embarrassedly, "Then let's not talk about the past."
"Alright!"
Before going to bed, Huo Qizhen video-called Jian Yu right on time.
Jian Yu chatted with him for a while about the gossip surrounding Director He and Jia Cheng.
“I don’t really like Director He anymore and don’t want to invest in him, but I’ve already agreed to Jia Cheng’s offer.”
"If you don't like it, then don't vote for it. Maybe because of your actions, Lao He will have an epiphany and know how to handle family matters."
"If only he could really see the light. When I saw him running away from the street, all I could see in his eyes was anger towards his wife."
"Then we won't vote. We'll wait until he figures things out himself and comes to you for help."
"good."
Before hanging up the phone, Huo Qizhen said, "I won't be home for a few more days. I've ordered a necklace for you, and someone will deliver it to your door tomorrow. See if you like it."
Jian Yu seemed lost in thought for a few seconds before nodding, "Okay."
That night, Jian Yu didn't sleep well; she dreamed that Huo Qizhen had an accident at sea.
He was badly injured, so he chose not to go home so as not to worry her.
After waking up, Jian Yu sat up in bed with the blanket until dawn.
While Jian Yu was catching up on sleep during the day, her phone ran out of battery and turned off. Lao He couldn't contact her and assumed that Jian Yu had kicked him out of the game.
He was so frightened that he immediately contacted He Xing.
He Xing's ankle was hurting, and when she received the call, she said irritably, "It's normal for her to withdraw her investment, after all, her attitude was quite obvious last night."
Old He, "Didn't you try to persuade her?"
He Xing's face darkened. "So you didn't realize you were wrong, and you just thought I could cover for you?"
Old He, "Aren't you usually good at handling things? Besides, it's not a big deal. A little persuasion should fix it, right?"
He Xing said, "Since it's not a big deal, why are you worried? Just go see her in a few days."
Old He said, "How can we delay the investment? What if someone says something to her and she changes her mind?"
He Xing, "Are you worried about people talking about your filming techniques, or are you worried that your family affairs will affect her?"
Lao He was very confident in his business acumen and believed that Jian Yu agreed to invest not only because of the script but also because of the film's production quality.
His only worry was that Jian Yu might change his mind because of what happened yesterday.
He could see that Jian Yu was dissatisfied with his and his mother's actions.
“He Xing, my mother is over seventy years old, and it’s impossible for her to change her personality.”
"So, you're planning to continue playing both sides?"
"......"
"Since you've made the decision, accept the consequences of that decision."
Old He was puzzled. "Jia Cheng is angry right now. In a couple of days, once she calms down, she will take the initiative to ask Jian Yu to explain for me. I don't need to do anything extra. Why are you making such a fuss about it?"
"Anything superfluous? In your opinion, there's nothing wrong with leaving your daughter alone in the hospital? And asking you and your mother to apologize is superfluous?"
