Chapter 77
After a heavy rain, the crew entered into an intense filming schedule, with a full schedule for the entire day.
Summer is really almost over, but the weather is still very hot. Lin Bai asked his assistant to buy milk tea at his own expense and distributed it to the crew members and other actors.
Jiang Qiao received a glass of grape milk tea and said with a smile, "Thank you, Brother Lin."
Lin Bai blinked, indicating that it was not worth mentioning.
After drinking a glass of ice-cold grape milk, Jiang Qiao felt unsatisfied and took a bottle of mineral water that had just been taken out of the refrigerator.
The consequence of craving for cool food was that she felt a sharp pain in her stomach after only taking a few bites of lunch. It was like a needle stabbing her and made her feel very uncomfortable.
"Xiao Qiao, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Mu Xue carefully noticed that something was wrong with her and asked with concern.
Jiang Qiao felt a stomachache, which went away after a while. Not wanting to cause any more trouble, he said, "It's okay. It might be because I drank too much this morning."
She tried to sound casual, but her pale lips and the cold sweat on her forehead revealed that her condition was definitely not good at the moment.
"Okay, stop being so stubborn. I'll go get the accompanying doctor."
Jiang Qiao bit her lip, but before she could say anything, Mu Xue had already hurried off to find the director to explain the situation.
As soon as Julie came out of the bathroom, she saw several staff members surrounding Jiang Qiao.
Her face changed and she ran over quickly: "Qiao Qiao. What's wrong with you?!"
Jiang Qiao shook his head.
The accompanying doctor asked a few simple questions and concluded: "Intestinal spasms are caused by drinking too much raw and cold drinks. It's not a big deal. Just rest for a while. Your intestines are not in good condition. Don't drink so much ice water at once in the future."
"Thank you, doctor..."
Jiang Qiao was a little embarrassed because his greed had alarmed so many people, which was really embarrassing.
After hearing that it was not a serious matter, the others left. The director asked Jiang Qiao to rest for a while and considerately gave her half a day off.
Julie followed the doctor and asked a few more questions out of concern. She was relieved to learn that it was not a serious matter.
But she remembered what the doctor said, that Jiang Qiao's weak spleen and stomach were caused by irregular diet.
This matter could be a big deal or a small one. Julie thought about it and took out her phone to edit a few text messages and sent them out.
Jiang Qiao didn't know that there was a "traitor" around him. He returned to the hotel, held a cup of hot water, and sat in the hotel room to study the script.
Julie brought dinner. Jiang Qiao looked at the layers of lunch boxes in her hands and was a little surprised: "Did you buy this outside?"
Julie's eyes wandered for a moment: "Yes, it's a new restaurant nearby..."
Which restaurant’s lunch boxes are so exquisite?
Jiang Qiao felt strange.
She opened the lunch box doubtfully, and the aroma of food hit her face. The top layer was stir-fried Chinese cabbage, yam and chestnut chicken, and the bottom layer was corn and pork ribs soup and steamed egg.
It is delicious and makes people's appetite grow.
Jiang Qiao: "Let's eat together."
Although the portion was not large, it was still a bit of a luxury for her to eat alone.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Julie's eyes widened in fear, and she shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, I've already eaten!"
Psychological research shows that when a person repeats a sentence, it means she is lying.
Jiang Qiao narrowed his eyes: "Have you really eaten it?"
"I've eaten it."
Jiang Qiao: “……………………”
Since the other person didn't want to eat with her, Jiang Qiao didn't force him: "Okay, I'll eat by myself."
Julie breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the room, and patted her chest in fear.
Just kidding, even if she had more courage, she wouldn't dare to eat it. It was sent by the boss. She knew clearly whether work or appetite was more important.
Jiang Qiao ate all the three dishes and one soup, leaving nothing behind. He burped in satisfaction at the end.
The main reason was that it was so delicious. She had never eaten anything so appetizing in a restaurant.
Jiang Qiao thought that she should ask Julie where she bought it so that she could eat it herself later.
Julie stammered for a long time and couldn't utter a word. She hurriedly said, "I'll go ask if I can tell you," and hung up the phone.
Jiang Qiao stared at his phone speechlessly.
She just wanted to know the name of a restaurant, who else should she ask?
Restaurant owner or chef?
After a while, Julie sent a message, still without saying the name of the restaurant, but only vaguely saying that the restaurant was in a remote location.
If Jiang Qiao wants to eat, she can go to the restaurant and buy it, like today.
In the following days, Julie really brought a lunch box every night. The dishes inside were all different: yam porridge, shredded chicken porridge, lamb stewed with donkey-hide gelatin, okra stuffed with meat...
Jiang Qiao thinks even the most ordinary steamed egg tastes better than those made in other restaurants.
Guonan Group.
Gu Xing was sitting in the CEO's office, fiddling with a globe.
Wang Jie knocked on the door twice and came in. When he saw him, he paused for a moment, then walked in as if nothing had happened.
"President, this is the report for last quarter."
Behind the black desk, Lu Xun was replying to a work email. Without even raising his head, he reached out to pick it up.
Wang Jie noticed a small red spot on the back of his hand, as if he was burned by something.
In recent days, he has been able to see such marks on the back of Lu Xun's hands. Sometimes they look like they were burned, and sometimes they look like they were splashed with oil...
Lu Xun hadn't received the document yet. When he raised his eyelids, he saw Wang Jie in a daze. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wang Jie came back to his senses and quickly handed him the document: "Nothing."
Lu Xun took a quick look and found no problems.
I looked at the time and it was past eight o'clock.
Gu Xing had long been tired of waiting: "You two workaholics, are you going to eat or not? I'm almost starving to death. If I die of starvation here, you Guonan will be fully responsible."
"If you're hungry, go eat first. No one asked you to wait." Wang Jie said in a cold voice.
"That won't do." Gu Xing's round eyes turned and he said proudly, "Brother Xun promised to treat me to a meal. I'm going to Xiaobailou to order the most expensive dishes!"
Wang Jie turned his head and looked at the silent man. He felt that Gu Xing must be talking nonsense again.
But Lu Xun stood up, put his suit jacket on his arm, walked out the door without refutation, paused for a moment, and said indifferently: "Are you not leaving yet?"
"That's right, why aren't you leaving yet?" Gu Xing was acting like a bully.
Wang Jie reacted and followed.
Gu Xing kept talking all the way. He sat in the passenger seat and Wang Jie, who was driving, felt pain in his right ear because of his noise: "Can you shut up?!"
“No, I said!” Gu Xing was now extremely arrogant, and his voice was even louder. He was completely different from the person who wanted to dig a hole in the ground when he saw Lu Xun a few days ago.
What made Wang Jie feel even more incredible was Lu Xun's indulgence. Normally at this time, he would have just turned a cold eye and Gu Xing would have shut up.
