In the evening, after taking a shower, Song Shengsheng took two bottles of cold beer from the kitchen refrigerator and went to the rooftop. Jiang Yiyu was leaning on the railing with his arms, looking into the distance.
The evening breeze lifted the hem of his oversized white T-shirt. Hearing footsteps, he turned around and looked at Song Shengsheng with a smile on his face: "You washed it pretty quickly. Did you blow dry your hair?"
"It's done." Song Shengsheng walked over to him and stood beside him, handing him a can of beer. Jiang Yiyu took it and touched her hair: "Not bad, let's go."
"I told you to blow dry it, but you didn't believe me. You're more nagging than my mom."
Jiang Yiyu opened the pull ring of the beer can and handed it to her, replacing it with the unopened can in her hand. "If your brother knew that I took you out drinking so late at night, he would definitely beat me up."
"He can't take care of me right now. My mom is determined to arrange a blind date for him, and he can't escape." Song Shengsheng took a sip of beer and closed her eyes. She tilted her head back slightly, feeling the breeze: "The wind is so comfortable today."
"Yeah." Jiang Yiyu took a sip of wine and continued to lean on the railing: "It would be great if life could always be this peaceful."
"Who says it's not? But life is just like that. Busy, busy, busy. If you're not busy, you're on your way to being busy. There's no free time at all."
"You're so young, but you have so many emotions." Jiang Yiyu handed her a ring pull. Song Shengsheng reached out and let him put the ring pull on her ring finger. She smiled and shook her hand: "Does it look good?"
Jiang Yiyu smiled and said, "You look good in anything you wear."
"By the way, you're not even going to give me a wedding ring?"
"Give it to me when you propose."
"But we are married."
Jiang Yiyu put the other ring around the knuckle of his ring finger and gently rubbed it with his thumb. "For a family like ours, the wedding ceremony is far more important than getting a marriage certificate. Only what is brought to the public is truly recognized. When I finish all the things I have on hand, Miss Song, please take me to the public and give me a legitimate identity."
"It depends on your performance. My Song family has a long history of scholars from my grandparents to my grandparents. The threshold is very high, and you may not be able to climb up."
Jiang Yiyu took a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Then I can only rely on you with my thick skin. I hope Miss Song will not give up."
Song Shengsheng clicked her tongue and said, "Since you're pretty, I'll let you get close to her." She smiled after saying that.
Jiang Yiyu clinked his beer cans with hers and said, "Thank you, Miss Song."
After quietly enjoying the breeze for a while, Song Shengsheng yawned: "Tell me, my brother is on this business trip just to avoid the blind date my mom arranged for him, right?"
"I don't know, but it's not something Song Ming can't do."
"Actually, in my opinion, he's only 28. There's no need to rush into marriage. Marrying just to obey the wishes of his elders is forcing two people who don't love each other together. It's good for them to fall in love over time, but how many people in this world can get married first and then fall in love over time? Most people are just making do."
"When his parents chose a blind date for him, they probably had business considerations as well."
"Maybe, but my brother definitely won't agree. I think he seems to have rekindled his old feelings for Sister Wenjing this time. I just don't know what Sister Wenjing thinks of him. If you have time, please ask her about it. It's rare for him to be serious about something. I think it would be great if Sister Wenjing could become my sister-in-law. She's beautiful and capable, and she can help me keep an eye on you. She's really nice."
"That last sentence is your main point, right? All my colleagues in the studio have been bribed by the gifts you've been sending them. When we wrapped filming, I told Xiao Chen to invite everyone else in the crew out for dinner to have some fun. Guess what happened?"
"What's going on?"
"That girl, besides the director and staff, only invited the male actors in the crew. From the female lead to the supporting actress, she didn't invite a single one. When I walked in during the dinner, I was stunned. It was all men. I asked her, 'Where's the female lead?' She said frankly that she didn't invite anyone, and even gave me a lecture about how you have to avoid suspicion when you have a wife. Don't you think it's ridiculous? If this gets out, people who don't know will think I'm trying to exclude her."
"This is my fault." Song Shengsheng thought for a moment and hissed, "But it's good that you're being watched closely, so I don't have to worry about you."
Jiang Yiyu also became interested. He leaned against the railing and turned to face her: "Tell me how I made you worry. I love this topic."
Song Shengsheng curled her lips and shook her head: "No."
"Tell me about it, I really like to hear it."
Song Shengsheng glanced at him and looked down at the small fountain pool downstairs: "I won't tell you even if you want to hear it."
"Boring." Jiang Yiyu leaned his arm back on the railing. "Actually, I really want to play a villain, the kind that's completely evil. If everyone in the world betrays me, I'll kill them all. It must be very exciting."
"This kind of role isn't the main character. With your current status, even if you want to play it, I guess no one would dare to hire you. How about I invest in you and you make a movie?"
"I'm afraid we won't be able to broadcast it after we finish filming, so let's just forget it." He pointed to the small fountain downstairs and said, "Why isn't it spraying water today?"
"I heard from Mom that it seems to be broken, and the housekeeper has arranged for someone to come and repair it next Monday. But Dad doesn't seem to want this Western-style fountain anymore. He wants to enlarge the pond, replace it with Taihu stone landscaping, and raise a few koi. But Mom disagrees. She says that a Chinese-style courtyard and a Western-style villa don't match, it's out of place. If they really don't want the fountain, they can just have the pond completely enlarged and turn it into a swimming pool. That would be great. But Dad doesn't want to either. He says that there are few people in the family who can swim, and a swimming pool would just take up a lot of space. It would be better to have a fish pond. He has nothing to do and can raise fish. Anyway, the two of them argued and argued, and the more they talked, the more exaggerated they became."
