After winning the "Best Actress" award, Xu Bailing made an appointment with her friends to have dinner and drinks.
Three people booked a private room, the location was very confidential, and it was the venue recommended by Chao Juan.
The food is also very delicious.
However, most of the three of them drank alcohol because Xu Bailing was so, so happy!
Holding the trophy, he yelled, "I'm so happy!"
Chen Haohan held his forehead with his hand: "Lingling, are you? Are you drunk?"
Xu Bailing blushed: "Drunk? No, I'm not drunk!"
"I can drink three more!"
The lights were dim and the air was filled with alcohol. On the table were several bottles of fruit wine with low alcohol content, as well as several bottles of wine that Yan Yongwang had always liked.
Chen Haohan watched Xu Bailing eating and drinking. He must be drunk. His face was flushed and his eyes were smiling. He looked very happy. He was a little amused. As the only man among the three, he drank less. He decided to send the two girls home separately.
In the capital, neon lights flicker late at night and the city is filled with the atmosphere of winter.
It snowed in the capital late at night in November. The white snow covered the entire city's buildings. The pine needles of the pine trees were densely dotted with snowflakes, which glowed faintly under the street lights.
The big LED screen in the building continuously broadcasts the winners of today's Golden Bear Awards.
From Best Picture to Best Actor and Actress, and then to Best Supporting Actor...
Pedestrians on the street looked up at the big screen and said, "It's beautiful." It turned out that the screen was frozen on a clip of "Chao Juan" in "The Merciless", in which the character Hua Rongying was holding a sword and looking into the distance, graceful as dust, and cold and beautiful.
There are also pictures of the celebration scene, where she is wearing a dress, so beautiful that it makes people tremble. Every frown and smile makes her look like a character walking out of a painting.
…
Wine is a good thing.
Yan Yong was so drunk that he hadn't drunk for a while. When he attended banquets hosted by various business partners, few people dared to urge him to drink.
Even though he was young and there were many older friends present, no one dared to use their age advantage to persuade him to drink. Because Yan Yongwang himself did not like to drink too much in business occasions. He rarely got drunk and was not good at drinking. In short, he was a good man and a very family man.
He has too few friends, and the only person who is close to him as Yan Yongwang is Chen He.
But as Chao Juan, he made two good friends.
Because he was happy for Xu Boling, he also drank a lot of wine. Even though he thought about restraining himself, he kept drinking and whispered with Xu Boling from time to time.
"Juanjuan, you? You're so good." Xu Bailing murmured, "You're pretty and cute. I like you very much."
She saw the beautiful woman in front of her blushing, and she whispered, "Thank you for your love."
"I like you, too."
Xu Bailing laughed: "I am very happy today because I can celebrate with my good friends!"
"This trophy is the first and most valuable award I have ever received in my life." She was so moved that her eyes sparkled. As soon as she stepped off the stage after the live broadcast celebration and ended the event, she took off her beautiful skirt (you can't wear such an expensive skirt when drinking!) and changed into casual clothes. She was wrapped in a down jacket, and her small face was hidden in the thick clothes - of course, she drank too much and felt hot, so she couldn't help but take off her coat.
Tonight is a private celebration with friends, and her team will also have a small celebration tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
The occasion will be more grand, but it will be more difficult to speak from the heart.
Xu Bailing only told her good friend that she was really drunk. She hugged Chao Juan's arm and talked about how many plays she had performed since she was a child, and how she comforted herself when she was bullied when she was young...
She said that she worked extremely hard. No matter how many people criticized actors who started out as child stars, she worked extremely hard to learn knowledge and improve her acting skills.
Now, the hard work has paid off.
Even though the other actresses nominated this year were not as good, she had three points of luck, but who can say that luck is not a kind of strength?
In the entertainment industry, luck has always been more important than acting skills.
Just look at how many artists in this circle have struggled for many years but still haven't made a name for themselves, and you will know how precious luck is to them.
Therefore, countless people feel sorry that Chao Juan is unwilling to act anymore.
Xu Bailing burped at the end of her speech. She muttered, "Juanjuan, you are also very lucky."
"But you? You just have a little bit of luck, great acting skills, and a very pretty face."
This little bit of luck is enough.
Because her conditions were naturally superior, Xu Bailing looked in a trance at Chao Juan's face not far away.
She was a little drunk, her cheeks were slightly pink, her eyes were full of confusion, like two cat's eyes. The corners of her mouth were upturned, her eyes were tender, and under the influence of alcohol, this face gave people the illusion of deep affection.
Xu Bailing: Hit the sky with a cry!
Xu Bailing: How can she be so beautiful?
…
Getting drunk is a novel experience.
For Yan Yongwang, watching his friends get drunk and getting drunk himself are two new and novel experiences.
Because he really has very few people who can be called "friends", and he is the type of person that no one dares to persuade to drink, and he rarely has the experience of being drunk.
A few years ago, when he first took office as the president, he got drunk a few times in the business field, but he stopped doing that later because Shen He told him that he didn't need to work too hard, and even if he couldn't get a project, there was no need for him, as the boss, to drink himself.
"I'll do it." Chen He said.
Later, he controlled his drinking and did not allow Chen He to drink too much. In the end, many business partners knew that Yan Yongwang himself did not like to drink much, and his secretary did not like to drink much either.
…
But alcohol clearly has an indulgent effect.
As soon as I drank it, my cheeks turned slightly red, I felt dizzy, and I could feel that I was stepping on a light ground, as if I was on an alien planet. The gravity was completely different from that in reality.
He listened to Xu Bailing saying: "Juanjuan, come, take a photo with me!"
He honestly put his face closer.
Smile for the camera.
Xu Bailing: "Woo woo woo, today marks the one year since Juanjuan and I met!"
"It's also been more than a year since Brother Haohan and I knew each other!"
"The three of us!"
"good friend!"
"Smail!" Saying the English word for smile, Xu Bailing smiled sweetly, with the corners of his mouth raised and his eyes narrowed like crescents. Chen Haohan smiled helplessly along with him.
Chao Juan was sitting next to her, maintaining a heart-warming smile, with a gentle and affectionate look and tender eyes.
Then, Xu Bailing fiddled with it for a while and posted it on Weibo with the text: "[love][love][love]"
After turning off their cell phones, they continued drinking.
Chen Haohan had been trying to control his drinking, but Xu Boling wouldn't let him be alone. Drunk people were the most difficult to deal with, so she forced him to drink two glasses.
In the end, I got a little addicted.
Among the three people, it is hard to tell who can drink the most, but it is obvious who can drink the least.
Miss Xu Bailing started to get red in the face after drinking a few glasses of low-proof fruit wine. Later, while the other two were not paying attention, she took the wine ordered by Yan Yongwang for her, mixed it with fruit wine, made a homemade cocktail, and drank it.
And then... I got drunk.
Fortunately, she was not too rude when she was drunk. At most, she made things difficult for Chen Haohan, forcing him to drink a little too.
After the show, Yan Yongwang saw Chen Haohan contacting Xu Bailing's agent, and he did not forget to ask her: "Sister Juanjuan, is there anyone coming to pick you up?"
He wanted to take the ladies home, but he was a little drunk and couldn't protect them.
I had to contact the ladies’ acquaintances to pick them up.
Xu Boling's agent answered the phone and agreed to pick him up later.
Chen Haohan looked at Chao Juan and propped up his cheek with his hand, then said slowly: "I'll just stay in the hotel."
"Huh?"
“Isn’t there an X Hotel in this building?”
"Oh, okay. I'll take you upstairs later."
Chen Haohan knew that this Hotel X was owned by Yan's family and was known for its strong security, making it the first choice for many people when going out.
The price is high and the service is good, so when he goes out to stay in a hotel, he will give priority to hotels under Yan’s.
It can be said that this is a hotel with a very high national popularity.
After Xu Bailing left, Chen Haohan and his assistants (a man and a woman were specially hired) sent Chao Juan to that floor of the hotel.
By the time Chen Haohan was registering his ID card, he felt so sleepy that he was almost exhausted. He rubbed his eyes, sleepiness and drunkenness overcoming his rationality.
Then, he heard his assistants exclaiming, "Brother, Sister Lingling's Weibo post has received over 500,000 comments today."
Chen Haohan disagreed: "It's normal. Hasn't she been on the hot search today?"
"Wow," the assistant clicked on Xu Bailing's Weibo and whispered, "But, in this short video, you three really look good."
"Short video?" Chen Haohan was confused. "Isn't it just photos?" He was so scared that he almost fainted. Cold sweat broke out and most of his drunkenness disappeared.
Assistant: “It’s okay, it’s just a short video you took photos of. There’s nothing wrong with filming.” That’s right, otherwise her company would have called her and asked her to delete it shortly after Xu Boling posted it, or they would have directly taken away her account password and deleted the Weibo post.
Since it has been sent out for an hour or two and the content is normal, there is no need to worry.
Chen Haohan breathed a sigh of relief, and his sleepiness came back. "That's good. I'll watch Sister Juanjuan enter the room before I leave."
"By the way, Xiao Ding, hold you? I, your brother, will hold you the whole time, otherwise someone will take pictures and make up stories about me and Sister Juanjuan..."
Another female assistant was about to help Chao Juan.
Chao Juan didn't say no. Her room was very close, so the female assistant sent the person to the room before coming back.
He rested his chin on the sofa in the hall, looking at Chen Haohan who had his door closed at the other end of the corridor, and then he stretched himself lazily: "Oh, let's go back and rest!"
"Brother, you? You seem quite happy today."
"Although I didn't win the award, I was shortlisted," Chen Haohan pondered for a moment and smiled, "I'm still very happy."
"Besides, Lingling and Sister Juanjuan both won awards, so I'm happy too."
His happiness was simple and sincere, which made his assistants laugh. They thought Chen Haohan would be disappointed for a while, but they didn't expect that he was still so good-tempered.
"Yes, Lingling and Chao both won awards, that's amazing. My brother is also amazing to have such friends!"
——The assistants around Chen Haohan are really good at talking. They make Chen Haohan very happy and he keeps laughing with his tail sticking up to the sky.
…
After he returned home, as the least drunk among the three, he still fell into a deep sleep under the influence of alcohol and did not wake up until twelve o'clock the next day.
After waking up, I was bombarded with multiple messages from major websites.
[How expensive is the Golden Bear Award winner's jewelry? Click to see——]
[The necklace that was photographed more than ten years ago has reappeared in the world——]
[……]
Then, many months later, Chao Juan became a hot topic on Weibo again.
This time, it’s not just the tag “Golden Bear Award for Best Supporting Actress”, but also the necklace she wore when attending the live broadcast celebration.
In the photos taken by the media, the beauty is like clouds, with fair skin and delicate bones. The necklace above her collarbone is extremely eye-catching.
The only word to describe it is "expensive".
Several media outlets with a high degree of focus on hotspot tracking used technological means such as image recognition search to find photos of this necklace that had appeared many years ago.
——[Shi Xianyuan won the flower of Loswei, the price was 28XXXXXX] is a string of jaw-dropping numbers.
——[Yan's strong woman was interviewed: Why did you take the photo? Because I think this necklace is pretty. As for the price... Do you think I am someone who cares about the price?]
——[Yan Chi responded to his wife spending a large sum of money to buy the Loswei flower: My wife likes it, so I like it too.]
——[Yan Chi responded to the question about the ownership of the Loswei Flower: Although it is expensive, my wife likes it... My wife said it would look good at home.]
——[Shi Xianyuan was impatient with the media's questioning and said bluntly: I can wear it myself, and I can give it to my son in the future. You? You said my son, a man, can't wear it? (Silence for a moment) Then I will give it to him anyway, no matter who he gives it to.]
Chen Haohan clicked on these screenshots of old news and was stunned.
The Losway Flower was sold by a foreign jeweler many years ago because his family went bankrupt. In the last century, this piece of jewelry was made by a well-known craftsman and was extremely valuable.
Was it taken by Shi Xianyuan?
This necklace was featured in print media for a long time more than ten years ago when the Internet was not well developed.
Today, more than ten years later, the Losway flower reappears in the world.
This time, the flower of Loswei was hung around Chao Juan's neck.
Chen Haohan: ...dementia face.
He immediately organized several names: Yan Chi, Shi Xianyuan, Chao Juan, Yan Yongwang...
Oh my god, did he know something?!
Under the news that broke the news, netizens’ reactions were the same as Chen Haohan’s.
: Does this mean...Oh my God, I dare not say.
: The fact that Chao Juan was able to obtain the Flower of Loswei, wear it around her neck, and participate in the live broadcast celebration, does it mean that Yan Yongwang has a relationship with her?
: After Yan Chi and Shi Xianyuan passed away, these jewelry must have been inherited by Yan Yongwang, right? And now, they are given to Chao Juan? ! ! !
: …My jaw dropped.
: I can't imagine these two people being together at all!!!
: Is it possible that Mr. Yan lent the jewelry to someone?
The last one has been discussed several times in the post.
: Impossible, this should be his parents' inheritance, and it is Shi Xianyuan's most precious thing. How could an ordinary friend of his be qualified to get it?
: Everyone, think about the next door. Although I don't like Wen Suye and Wang Luo, Wen Suye also bought a whole set of decent dresses and jewelry for his lover at the live broadcast celebration yesterday. Think about it, don't all CEOs have this idea, to give the best jewelry to the beloved and make her the most beautiful beauty in the event.
: Damn, after putting it into context, it's really possible...
: So, they made it official through a piece of jewelry?
Chen Haohan: “!!!”
He immediately sent a message to Chao Juan: "Sister Juan Juan, read the news!"
Then I traced the reason why the necklace on Chao Juan’s neck is so popular today.
After getting to the bottom of it, it turns out that during the live broadcast of the celebration yesterday, although everyone was amazed at Chao Juan's beautiful clothes and expensive jewelry, in that occasion, most people praised her beauty, and the focus was also on her role as Hua Rongying in "The Ruthless", and even on her friendship with Chen Haohan and Xu Boling.
It was afterward that passers-by saw in the short video shot by Xu Bailing that when they clicked on the video, Xu Bailing in casual clothes and Chao Juan who had no idea that there was anything wrong with wearing such an expensive dress after drinking. Two beautiful beauties, one in casual clothes, one in an expensive dress, and Chen Haohan who could be a wallflower.
Yan Yongwang didn't consider at that time that he needed to bring another set of casual clothes to change into. He didn't have much idea about the very expensive formal clothes in the entertainment industry.
I chose a more expensive dress with a nice design, and it really looks good on me. The weather is cold, so I put a warm pack inside to make sure I can hold up in the field.
Before coming here, I brought a down jacket, an extra long one, because I was afraid my legs would get cold. So I put it on when I went to drink.
When she got hot from drinking in the cubicle, she took off her down jacket, revealing her beautiful skirt and jewelry.
Yes, he knew that the jewelry around his neck was quite expensive, but he didn't seriously note the price.
He found it in his mother, Ms. Shi Xianyuan's jewelry box, and he thought it was the best-looking one.
When it comes to nice jewelry, the straight male president still has a more popular American style.
The Flower of Losway was featured in a long headline in print media when it was auctioned more than ten years ago.
Its beauty cannot be measured by value alone.
Like many valuable and historic jewels, it also has a sad and beautiful love story.
Netizens succinctly put the love story as follows: basically, a foreign girl fell in love with the son of her father's mortal enemy, but the relationship did not receive the support of her parents, and in the end, the two agreed to commit suicide together.
Only then did the craftsman create this jewelry.
In the short video, Xu Bailing spoke with a smile, saying that he, Juanjuan and Haohan are good friends.
The smile was bright, and the cold and beautiful woman next to him also smiled faintly. Her skin was white, delicate and soft. In the compartment, the lights flickered, making her eyes shine slightly, and the big jewel on her neck was as dazzling as a rainbow.
The Weibo post had received over 500,000 comments that evening, and by the next day, when Chen Haohan clicked on it, it had already received over a million comments.
The comments not only discussed Xu Bailing's "Best Actress" Golden Bear Award trophy, but also the necklace around Chao Juan's neck.
In the end, because of this short video, major media outlets dug up content that was reported by print media more than ten years ago.
[Losway Flower Auction Owner]
[Losway's flower falls to Yan's family]
And now, Chao Juan is closely linked to the Yan family.
Not only was Chen Haohan shocked about who the jewelry belonged to, even those in the upper class circle who knew that Chao Juan was in love with Yan Yongwang were stunned.
Finished Blue sent a message to his brother: "Did you see that? Chao Juan participated in the live broadcast yesterday. The necklace around his neck belonged to Yan Yongwang."
Chengpin He had already seen the message, and he replied solemnly: "I know."
Finished Blue sighed: "We are so rich, don't be depressed, brother, we will make a lot of money!"
Finished product: "..."
When Lin Shen saw the news, he burst into anger: "How can he be so rich!"
"Wow, but this necklace looks really good on me, sis."
Save, download, set as screen saver, Lin Shen shed tears: QAQ
Lin Shen: I am just a poor dog who can only look at and lick the faces of beautiful women.
Lin Shen: How many years of good luck did Yan Yongwang have to have such a beautiful girlfriend! I envy him so much! He has become a sourpuss!
…
The main machine and the backup machine are both with me.
November 26th, yesterday Chen He said he would deliver the documents on this day.
However, he encountered a situation where he couldn't get through to Yan Yongwang on the phone.
He was calm and had already accepted the outcome. He had no intention of going without permission, but kept on making the call.
Then, while I was on the way, a link suddenly came out from the work WeChat group - yes, the company's big group.
The title is: [The Yan family's treasures fell into Chao Juan's hands. What is the relationship between the national old man and the beauty of the century——]
Chen He: “…” He clicked it silently.
After reading it, he exclaimed: "That's great, you know what I mean? Give the best things to your girlfriend." This behavior deserves a thumbs up from him!
Well done. Chen He praised "GOOD JOB" from a distance.
However, he was really worried because he hadn't been able to contact anyone.
Another call was made.
I answered it this time.
When he picked up the phone, he heard President Yan's low and hoarse voice, which sounded like the voice he had used after doing something bad last night.
"Hello?"
"..." The hormones were extremely strong, overwhelming him. It was only because Chen He was not standing in front of him at the moment that he would have to take a few steps back.
Chen He: "Boss, where are you?"
Yan Yong said slowly: "... not at home."
Chen He didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't forget, I just promised to deliver the documents to you today yesterday morning."
Yan Yongwang: "...Oh, I just remembered."
Chen He: "What do you mean? I'll take you home?"
"Okay, no one's home anyway."
"You? Can go in too," Yan Yongwang sighed deeply, "Put it away. I'll go back home and look at it."
Chen He caught the weariness in his tone, a weariness that had a sense of drunken indulgence.
He raised his eyebrows and smiled: "You? Were you with Chao Juan last night?"
"..." There was silence for a second.
Chen He: "I saw the Weibo message yesterday. Miss Chao had a drink with her friends. You went to find her, right?"
“…”
Chen He spoke very quickly. Yan Yongwang, who had been drunk all night, hadn't even thought about it yet, but he heard him say fluently and happily, "Very good. Say hello to Miss Chao for me and wish her a happy life."
"Also, the necklace you gave her is really beautiful," Chen He praised, "I still remember when Madam bought that necklace, she told me that it was very beautiful and suitable for a beautiful woman to wear."
"She said she was giving it to you. I think what she meant was that she was giving it to your future partner."
The author has something to say: Shi Xianyuan’s mother: My Juanjuan will definitely look great wearing it (but I can only tell others that it’s for a son in the future, but it’s actually for a girl)
Then, no one expected that due to various coincidences, the rumor spread that "this necklace was left for the daughter-in-law."
Juanjuanzi married into a wealthy family! (bushi)
From an outsider's perspective: Today is the day Yanyan dotes on Juanjuan because he even gave her such an expensive necklace!
