If Ruan Congzhao had not introduced the basic situation of the woman in front of him to Jiang Yilu before, he would definitely not have realized that this beautiful woman with fair and smooth skin was actually in her early forties.
She was very tall. Without the pair of high heels on her feet, she was estimated to be about 1.7 meters tall. She had slender shoulders and waist, without a trace of fat. The dark red cheongsam she wore perfectly outlined her beautiful figure and long legs, which were in no way inferior to those so-called supermodels in later generations.
Jiang Yiliu felt that the most attractive thing about the woman in front of him was her deep eyes, dark brown pupils, dense eyelashes, and affectionate eyes. Being looked at by her was like owning the whole world. But it was precisely those affectionate eyes, full of mystery and vicissitudes, that made people feel that the woman in front of him seemed to have endless secrets waiting for you to explore.
Not to mention men, even women can't resist the deliberate temptation of the man in front of them. Jiang Yiliu finally believed the rumor from Ruan Congzhao that he was coveted by countless bigwigs.
"Mr. Ruan, this must be the Mr. Jiang you mentioned. He has achieved so much at such a young age. He is truly a rare talent." When Jin Yayan saw Jiang Yilu, a trace of trance flashed in her eyes, and an old friend who she hadn't seen for a long time emerged in her mind.
It seems that due to the constant smoking and drinking, her voice is a little hoarse, with a hint of laziness and a hint of temptation.
"Hello, Miss Jin. I've heard of you for a long time." Jiang Yilu observed the woman in front of him with a subtle and inquiring look. He looked 70% like his uncle. If she was an old friend of his uncle, she would have shown something different on her face. But her expression was flawless, and he could not see anything.
Yes, after all, she was once a film queen. Hiding emotions is her basic skill.
He really misunderstood Jin Yayan. Although she saw the shadow of Gu Xiashi in Jiang Yilu, deep down, she did not associate the young man in front of her, who was dressed in a suit and had elegant manners, with the simple and honest boy in the small village back then.
In her opinion, these were two completely unrelated people, so after that moment of distraction, Jin Yayan returned to normal, and that moment of distraction was so fast that it was impossible to refute it with the naked eye.
"Ms. Jin, how long do you plan to stay in the capital this time?" Ruan Congzhao and Jiang Yilu sat on the sofa opposite Jin Yayan, took a sip of the hot tea brought by the nanny in front of them, and asked with a smile.
"I came here only for a personal matter. Now it seems that it can't be done. I will go back to Haicheng to film in a few days." Jin Yayan found that Jiang Yilu, who was sitting opposite her, seemed to be unable to tolerate the smell of cigarettes. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his expression was somewhat restrained. He covered his nose with his left hand two or three times since he entered the door. He immediately understood what was going on and very considerately put the cigarette butt in his hand into the glass ashtray and extinguished it. By the way, he asked the nanny to take it away and open the window for ventilation.
The smell of smoke in the room suddenly disappeared, and Jiang Yilu's expression relaxed immediately.
Now he had one more thing to say about the woman in front of him. Besides her beauty, she was also a woman with a keen eye for detail. Also, if she was the only one with beauty, how could she be able to juggle so many men and still get away with it?
"Don't worry, Mr. Ruan. I also invested in this movie. No matter what happens, I will not go against my money." Jin Yayan's bright red nail polish passed across the corners of her eyes, and her diamond-shaped lips formed a smile.
"Of course I trust Miss Jin's integrity. Those actors are still novices, so Miss Jin will have to take care of them when the time comes." Ruan Congzhao felt a lot more relieved when he heard that. He was really afraid that the other party would suddenly act willfully and delay the filming process.
"I would like to ask a question. I wonder why Miss Jin came to the capital this time. Maybe there is something I can help you with."
Ruan Congzhao looked at Jiang Yilu in surprise. He didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question. He also didn't know whether Jin Yayan would feel offended.
Perhaps it was because of Jiang Yilu's face, Jin Yayan's smile only paused for a second, and then she recovered immediately. She just looked at Jiang Yilu deeply, then covered her mouth and laughed.
"It's not a big deal. It's just that it's a rare opportunity to return to the place where I grew up. I want to come and see if I can buy the house where I grew up. Unfortunately, the current owner of the house doesn't seem to want to sell it." Jin Yayan's eyes flashed with a trace of trance. In fact, what's the point of buying it back? You can't go back. As for the box of jewelry buried in the yard, I don't know if that person dug it up. If not, it will be a surprise for the new owner. At her current level, she doesn't need that little money.
Maybe it's just an obsession, an obsession with the spoiled, simple and self-centered girl.
"So Miss Jin is from the capital. You can't tell that from your accent." Ruan Congzhao smiled. The other party was not an ordinary little movie star. Her late husband had left her so many properties, many of which had business exchanges with the Ruan family. The woman in front of him was no ordinary person either. The fact that she could guard these properties under the watchful eyes of her late husband's relatives was enough to show how difficult she was.
Speaking of which, the other party was willing to come out and play a supporting female role, which shocked many people.
"I was seventeen years old, and I smuggled across the Shenzhen Bay from Shekou. I almost lost my life there. For a better life, what does changing my accent matter?" Jin Yayan curled the corners of her mouth sarcastically, as if mocking herself, and obviously recalled that not-so-good past.
Ruan Congzhao didn't expect that the woman opposite him would so easily reveal the private information that the gossip magazines of that year had not been able to dig out for a long time. He was suddenly embarrassed. He didn't know whether to respond or not.
"Where are you from, Mr. Jiang? Judging from your speaking, you are not from the capital." Jin Yayan quickly adjusted her mood and asked Jiang Yilu in return.
"I'm from Yuchuan County, J Province. It's a small place. I guess Miss Jin has never heard of it?" Jiang Yilu answered while looking straight at Jin Yayan. To be honest, this was a bit rude.
Ruan Congzhao was almost defeated by Jiang Yilu's abnormal behavior tonight, and regretted his suggestion to bring him to see Jin Yayan today.
"Yuchuan?" What a coincidence. Jin Yayan took a deep look at Jiang Yiliu in front of her. "I've heard people talk about this place before. There seems to be a big green mountain there. The scenery is very beautiful?"
Is it that man's child? Considering the age, it's about the same.
"I'm from Qingshan Village. The Daqingshan that Miss Jin mentioned is right behind our village. Could it be that Miss Jin has been to Yuchuan before?" Jiang Yilu was delighted. Could he find out some news today?
"Qingshan Village?" Jin Yayan was not familiar with this village. It was not the village she was familiar with. It seemed that the boy in front of her did not have that kind of relationship with him. "I have never been to Yuchuan, but I have only heard of such a place. But if I have the chance, I would like to go for a visit."
Jin Yayan pursed her lips. She loved, hated and resented that backward and impoverished village. It was the crossroads of her life and also the place she was afraid to resist.
This time when she came to the capital, she should have gone there first, but there were people there she didn't dare to see. Maybe she was not strong enough and finally backed down.
"Miss Jin is interested in Qingshan Village. We are going there to play in two days. Miss Jin can go with us." Ruan Congzhao suggested excitedly. Ruan Ruan also wanted to go back to visit the place where she lived when she was a child. Jiang Yilu didn't have many classes for the next while, so they agreed to go back to Qingshan Village together.
"This--" Jin Yayan's expression showed the first embarrassment of the day, but she still had to face what she had to face, which could be regarded as a farewell to her past self.
"Okay, then I'd rather obey than be disrespectful." A hint of determination flashed in Jin Yayan's eyes, and she nodded to Ruan Congzhao.
Jiang Yilu was a little worried about his uncle who was far away in Yuchuan, wondering if he had received the letter.
