Chapter 277 The Third Person
In the close proximity between the table and under the table, there are usually couples who can't help but be clingy and entangled with each other under such "covering", which can really bring some excitement of cheating.
Moreover, couples will always wear the wrong clothes or take the wrong things from each other in an emergency - this is a common mistake that many underground couples have made when they were discovered.
Although Su Yun and Zhuang Long claimed to be friends for many years, they were indeed a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and had played the role of a couple more than once... So, Lin Qingxia's mind was distracted.
For ordinary artists, "falling in love" is a problem that may affect their careers: for example, when she first debuted, many fans were attracted by her single personality that made them dream. Later, after the news of her falling in love and being entangled in a complicated love triangle came out, her popularity immediately dropped by more than a level.
However, Zhuang Long and Su Yun are clearly "unusual", whether in terms of status, net worth, or the way their fans get on board and their level of loyalty, they are different from those artists who lack real talent but rely on their persona to gain recognition.
Therefore, if that day really comes, Lin Qingxia, as Zhuang Long's loyal fan, doesn't think it would be difficult to accept.
Although her idol is very good, Su Yun is really superior in terms of age, wealth, means, strength, etc. If her idol Zhuang Long really has something with Su Yun, everyone including herself will think that they are marrying above their station.
Of course, in Su Yun's case, unless she is looking for a descendant of a family that is "equally matched", anyone in the entertainment industry who is a good match for her will be considered as marrying above her station: although it is no longer easy to talk about wealthy families in the new era, Su Yun is a rising star who has made a name for herself and is the daughter of a wealthy family. If she is not choosing her own partner through free love, then those who are suitable for her must be heirs of the family, or promising young people who are favored and have some ability.
In addition, Su Yun and Zhuang Long had worked together in "Memoirs of a Geisha" and "My Three Dead Ex-husbands" before, and they will continue to play the role of a couple in the future "Grave Robbers". As the sequence progressed, the more Lin Qingxia thought about it, the more she felt that she had accidentally discovered clues and gradually got closer to the truth through reasoning.
Therefore, after discovering that Su Yun and Zhuang Long wore the wrong shoes, Lin Qingxia, who felt that she had discovered a shocking melon, had to try her best to suppress the surging waves in her heart, and then quickly reached out to pick up the fallen mahjong tile.
"Have you found it?" Su Yun's voice came from above.
"Found it!" Lin Qingxia responded quickly, then stood up, put the mahjong tiles on the table, and lowered her head to calm herself down.
If Su Yun and Zhuang Long really had that kind of ambiguous relationship, she could probably guess why they were having a secret affair.
Although there are many rational fans like her, there are still many fanatics who are crazy about chasing stars. The reason why so many artists avoid talking about their private lives or even hide them is nothing more than that they are afraid of these overly stubborn and crazy fans.
Especially for those like Su Yun and Zhuang Long who have both talent and good looks, many people privately think that this is their husband/wife.
So, once they find out someone wants to "replace" their identities, at the very least they will cause trouble, at worst they will threaten their lives or commit aggressive behavior out of love turning into hate... These are not without precedents.
Lin Qingxia, who already felt that she had begun to develop from a fan of Zhuang Long alone to a CP fan, made up her mind after calming down a little: since both of them had no plans to say it out loud for the time being, she should help keep it a secret.
"Let's play. Why do you always look absent-minded?" Lin Qingxia's distraction apparently affected the game. As her next player, Mei Yanshuang waited and waited but didn't see her playing cards, so she had to ask.
Lin Qingxia calmed herself down, then quickly threw out a card: "Sorry, I just thought of something, so I was distracted... 20,000."
Seeing Mei Yanshuang finish her game and go to Zhuang Long to play cards, and then Su Yun happily blocking the cards played by Zhuang Long, Lin Qingxia felt more and more that there was a problem between them: looking at Song Zhang, was it possible that Su Yun was feeding cards to herself, and then Zhuang Long was feeding cards to Su Yun?
Otherwise, how come Zhuang Long has never lost a single game in this long?
Oops, the table moved again. What happened underneath? She was really a little curious and wanted to see it but couldn't!
Once CP fans want to deduct sugar from each other, the two parties who are targeted will even breathe the same air through a pink filter...
After all, Lin Qingxia used to be a Qiongyao drama actress, and she was more or less tainted by the inner self of a dreamy literary girl who had an infinite longing for beautiful love.
It's not her fault that she misunderstood: a fight between a man and a woman is always likely to make people see some kind of tension. If the man and the woman happen to be good-looking, then no matter how fierce the fight is, in the eyes of outsiders, it will just be a fight between someone who is affectionate and someone who is coquettish...
Su Yun, who didn't know that Lin Qingxia had already imagined a Qiong Yao-style love drama in their minds, took back the slippers she had worn by mistake in the chaos of fighting with Zhuang Long from under his feet, and then calmly drew a card from another deck: "Hahahaha, it's a winner! Give me money! Give me money quickly!"
Now that Lin Qingxia has been tempted, she doesn't need to settle for playing cards anymore. She should just go for it!
"You're so rude." Zhuang Long smiled and shook his head, shuffling the cards while taking chips from the drawer and giving them to Su Yun.
"Then can I say thank you to you?" Su Yunxi took the chips from the three parties with a smile on her face and replied to him with a grin.
Thanks to her youth and good looks, she looks so lively and pretty even when she's smiling. If someone else were to show off like this, they'd probably get a few cold stares.
Therefore, Zhuang Long followed her lead and said, "No need to thank me. Just don't stare at me so closely next time. If you can't be careless, at least let me touch you, right?"
"Okay, let me 'touch' it." Su Yun said, and then she skillfully tapped his calf with her toes under the table.
This is a double entendre, and I don't know whether she meant it intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhuang Long finally realized that their behavior under the table was a little strange, so he had to frown and glare at Su Yun as a warning - but in the eyes of Lin Qingxia opposite him, it was just another big bowl of sour-smelling dog food.
"So, what do you think...why are you looking at me like that?" Seeing that Zhuang Long was really a little angry, Su Yun, who was used to flirting and running away, decisively turned around and looked at Lin Qingxia, but found that she was looking at her with a very strange and doting look.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly think that you are really interesting." Lin Qingxia smiled: Maybe this is the psychology of loving the house and loving the dog. Originally, Su Yun was quite likable, and now with the buff of "having a secret relationship with the idol", she seems to be even more likable.
"Really? Then do you want to join my new movie? I promise to make it a good one!" Hearing Lin Qingxia say this, Su Yun, who was unaware of the inside story, was delighted.
"I am indeed very interested in this movie, but..." Lin Qingxia paused, then slowly added, "I admire Miss Mei's acting skills, but you said there is a newcomer in this movie - can you tell us a little bit about this newcomer?"
Although Su Yun is also one of the decision-makers of Zhao's company, the old shareholders of Zhao's company are really difficult to deal with. If this third person is a powerless relative, Lin Qingxia is afraid of damaging her reputation.
"Oh, you can rest assured about this. She is an outsider that I have taken a fancy to recently. Of course, she will soon not be an outsider..." Su Yun played a card, "I am a judge for the Miss Hong Kong pageant again this year, so during the rehearsal, I saw a very promising candidate."
"But she's a little young, just 18 years old, so she was under a lot of psychological pressure after entering the top 15. She even asked the competition committee to withdraw from the competition. But that made me notice her." Su Yun, who is also 18 years old, talked about this candidate who is a few months older than her. Her old-fashioned look made the three people at the table want to laugh. "She has already won the Miss Photogenic title, and she is also a favorite in the top three. The competition committee will definitely not let her go."
"Fortunately, after the counseling of a psychiatrist, she has adjusted herself." Su Yun commented while playing cards, "This mentality is very good, and her appearance is also very good. I think she will become a supernova in the Hong Kong film industry in the future."
"Hearing what you said, I really want to go and see it." When Lin Qingxia heard this, she was also attracted by Su Yun's high evaluation.
Strictly speaking, among the "newcomers" that Su Yun has promoted before, Zhuang Long is a legend created by luck and strength, while Zhang Querong and Mei Yanshuang are both outstanding among their peers today. So, according to Su Yun's record of not failing in her vision so far, this Miss Hong Kong who can be regarded as a "supernova" by Su Yun must have her own outstanding qualities.
For a movie to be good, it is not just a one-man show, but the collaboration of all the characters on and off the stage.
Having a good teammate is definitely more comfortable and gives you hope than having a bad teammate.
However, if this good teammate is really good enough, then he is likely to become an obstacle in the future...
"You, don't be so exaggerated all the time. The most important thing in life is to be humble and low-key. This is the traditional virtue of China." Seeing that Lin Qingxia and Mei Yanshuang's eyes were filled with curiosity as well as fighting spirit, Zhuang Long slowly opened his mouth and reminded Su Yun, signaling her to stop being so outspoken.
"Where do I get that!" Su Yun was so immersed in the joy of collecting one after another that she didn't react for a moment.
So Zhuang Long thought about it and kicked her again under the table.
Su Yun felt pained, and was about to glare at him and then slap him back, when she suddenly realized that her actions were actually quite flattering...
"However, newcomers are newcomers after all, and they still need you to lead them. The meat of the play still depends on the performance of you two." The so-called "meat of the play" is the most important part of a play. When Su Yun said this, it was obvious that the "third female lead" actually had some emphasis.
"Really? What's the name of that beauty? The studio where I'm filming recently is not far from the Miss Hong Kong studio. If I have time, I can go and take a look." Mei Yanshuang said with a smile.
"Why are you so anxious? The finals will be recorded soon, and you will be able to watch it on TV then—" Su Yun waved her hands, "As for that beauty, her name is Zhang Wanyu."
