Chapter 64: Accept defeat.

Shijia Filming Location

"Click!" Shi Ling shouted, "Perfect ending!"

Yi Jiu finally finished filming the last two episodes of the documentary. Shi Ling said with a smile on his face: "Thank you all for your hard work this month. I will treat you all to a big dinner tonight."

"Long live the director!"

"Long live the director!"

Yi Jiu checked the time and saw several WeChat messages about He Jingxin pop up on his phone.

【He Jingxin: I’m sorry.】

[He Jingxin: Jiujiu, are you no longer angry? Can you please stop being so upset? ]

[He Jingxin: Have you finished the shoot? How do you feel today? ]

Looking at the messages filling the screen, she just couldn't read them and reply.

She left He Jingxin alone for two whole days. She could imagine that she was feeling anxious when she didn't get a reply.

Why don’t you reply to her WeChat?

It wasn't a big deal, she was just like this the day before yesterday after she came back from the mall. She could tell from what He Jingxin said to her in the car that it was a test from He Jingxin.

Test yourself to see if you still have the same feelings as before.

After being called a girlfriend, what can she do?

After returning, she locked herself in the room. He Jingxin came and knocked on the door several times, calling her to eat, and even asked if she should be fed. But she didn't respond.

In the middle of the night, she couldn't sleep for some unknown reason.

She sat up, opened the curtains, bathed in the moonlight, and listened to the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.

She saw the sports car disappear from her sight in the night until its red taillights disappeared.

She glanced at her phone, and the screen was black. It remained black. The next morning, Wang's mother handed her a note:

"Jiujiu, the company is in a hurry, so I have to leave overnight. When I write these words to you, it is already 10:00 pm. I won't send you WeChat messages, you may be asleep. Or maybe you are not asleep, you are still sitting."

"I'm really sorry for installing GPS for you. I admit that my actions were radical. I have a strong possessiveness towards you. The only person standing by your side is me. I am your only choice."

"This kind of speech by an old-fashioned overbearing president will definitely make you roll your eyes. So save your anger and wait for my girlfriend to come back. You can do whatever you want. After you're done and satisfied, we can have a good chat."

Yi Jiu felt the chill of the wind, and her wandering thoughts were brought back to reality. She planned to send a WeChat message to Lu Youning, telling her that she was staying to eat the grand feast, and asked her to pick her up later.

As soon as she opened WeChat, Lu Youning's message popped up.

【Lu Youning: I’m already on the set. 】

Yi Jiu didn't see Lu Youning, but she heard a familiar voice, so she looked in the direction of the voice...

Lu Youning was wearing sunglasses and holding a bouquet of flowers. She arrived at the Shi family's photo shoot early in the morning. When she looked up, she saw the plaque that read "Lihua Wine Shop".

She took off her sunglasses and faced the dazzling sunlight. She stood at the door for a moment, intending to say goodbye to her past self, so it was time to say goodbye here as well. She walked in with the pass Yi Jiu gave her, and happened to meet Yi Jiu who had just finished.

She was about to call Yi Jiu when Yi Jiu turned around to get something, so she decided to wait by the side.

At this time, after Ling announced that he would treat her to dinner in the evening, she saw a woman wearing sunglasses, holding a bouquet of flowers in her hands. She couldn't help but think of a woman as gentle as water and a beautiful orchid in the valley.

It was just the first impression, and she soon became wary of him because he was dressed in gorgeous clothes and holding flowers in his hands.

Could it be Yi Jiu’s illegitimate fan?

Some illegitimate fans are very powerful, so Shi Ling has to be more careful. When Lu Youning saw the other party coming over, she took off her sunglasses to show respect, and when Shi Ling was only one step away from her, she showed surprise on her face, and her excitement made her stutter, "You, you...you are..."

Lu Youning thought these were her fans, and she has always been very friendly to her fans.

She then said, "I am Lu Youning."

"It's really Yuening, Yuening, I'm so happy."

Lu Youning frowned. This person is not my fan. But this person and voice are very familiar. She suddenly remembered something and was surprised. "You, you are A Ling, Shi Ling."

Shi Ling is Lu Youning's only friend in South City.

Their parents were friends and their families visited each other frequently, so they had been friends since childhood. Later, Lu Youning went to Haicheng, where opportunities were different. After high school, Lu Youning was sent abroad for further studies. The two had not been in touch for almost ten years.

"You guys..." Yi Jiu came up to the two of them and looked at them suspiciously. She turned her gaze to Lu Youning, "Youning, do you know Shi Ling?"

"Yi Jiu, let me introduce you. This is my friend from South City, Shi Ling." Lu Youning called Yi Jiu's name very tactfully, not wanting Shi Ling to know their relationship. "Shi Ling, this is my friend, Yi Jiu."

Shi Ling nodded. She thought of the gossip on the Internet, which was widely circulated and had details.

The two people's behavior was not intimate. On the contrary, the interaction between Yi Jiu and He Zong was more intimate. Therefore, she did not think that the two were in an underground relationship.

"Yuning, please stay and have dinner with us. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I want to have a good chat with you." Shi Ling invited enthusiastically.

Lu Youning looked up at the sky. It was already getting dark, with orange-red clouds floating in the sky. She thought about how she had been closely watched by the paparazzi recently, and was afraid that something unexpected would happen when she returned home at night.

She evaded the question, "Ah Ling, I've been closely watched by paparazzi recently, so it's inconvenient for me. I'll take Yi Jiu with me and leave first."

Shi Ling thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.

After the two of them left, they ran into a middle-aged man dragging a suitcase. The middle-aged man glanced at the backs of the two people, and Shi Ling saw him and shouted, "Dad, you are finally back."

Father Shi nodded and stared in the direction of the car. He finally said in a reproachful tone: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I knew it was Miss Cheng, I would have come back a long time ago."

After saying this, he went straight to the study.

Shi Ling was confused when he heard this. Miss Cheng?

She remembered that Lu Youning was adopted by a wealthy businessman named Cheng from Haicheng. From the previous hot searches, she learned that it was the Chengjiang Group.

She thought her father was talking about Lu Youning.

How could she notify Lu Youning in advance when she didn't even know that Lu Youning was coming? How could her father come back early?

Shi Ling followed her father's footsteps to the study and leaned against the door frame. She crossed her arms and had no idea what her father was looking for.

She explained on behalf of Lu Youning: "Dad, you're talking about Youning. I just found out she was coming here. How could I have informed her in advance? She didn't change her last name. Why did you call her Miss Cheng?"

"I didn't say Youning." Shi's father was looking for something on the bookcase and did not forget to answer Shi Ling's question.

"The person next to Youning is the top star Yi Jiu, whose last name is Yi. He has a huge number of fans, and you changed his last name." Shi Ling said, feeling embarrassed for her father, so embarrassed that he could dig a castle out of it, "Just because she has signed a contract with Chengjiang Group doesn't mean her last name is Cheng."

"Yi Jiu?" After hearing this, Father Shi recalled for a moment. He was not old and his eyes were not blurry yet, so he said more confidently, "Yes, I am talking about Yi Jiu. Her last name is Cheng, and she is Miss Cheng."

"Dad, are you speaking Chinese? Are we talking about the same person? This is not a parallel world." Shi Ling was confused. She knew every word her father said, but she couldn't understand when he put them together. What was going on? Yi Jiu's last name was Cheng?

She deliberately opened her mobile phone and searched for Yi Jiu's entry on Baidu.

Yi Jiu's entry, her name is Yi Jiu.

"Found it!" Dad Shi found a box from a drawer. When he opened the box, there was a diary inside. There were three words written on the white cover: Cheng Zhoucheng.

"Dad, what is this?"

"Didn't you ask me a few days ago, Mr. Cheng from Haicheng ten years ago? This is what he left behind ten years ago." Father Shi said, as if he was relieved, "Now it can be considered as returning to its original owner."

Shi Ling asked on behalf of He Zong at the time. She stared at the name, which sounded familiar. "...Is he still in love with Lu Zhining?"

"Yes! According to your popular saying, he is the God of Pure Love. If you have the time to care about other people's love affairs, why don't you have a love relationship?"

"When the time comes, I will go and talk."

"Just take care of it yourself." Father Shi nodded and pointed to the diary. "Next time you invite Yijiu to dinner, I will return the diary to her."

"Dad! Let me figure out their relationship." Shi Ling felt like his CPU was about to burn out.

The company behind Yi Jiu is Chengjiang Group, and Lu Youning was adopted by the Cheng family, a wealthy family in Haicheng, which is Chengjiang Group. The Cheng family's little Cheng is called Cheng Chencheng, and Cheng Chencheng and Lu Youning are sisters in the household registration book.

Cheng Chencheng? Oh! No wonder she thought the name Cheng Zhoucheng sounded familiar.

Cheng Chencheng and Cheng Zhoucheng look like siblings just by looking at their names.

If her father wasn't lying, Yi Jiu was the younger sister of Cheng Zhoucheng and Cheng Chencheng.

Hmm? What did she find?

By the same token, Youning and Yijiu are sisters according to the household registration book.

It was really reasonable and logical for Lu Youning to come and pick up Yi Jiu and buy flowers for Yi Jiu.

The fans who support the couple are really disappointed. Will they be broken? The couple finally became sisters. This BE was unexpected and really thorough. Bury it!

......

When they got back to the apartment, the two of them sat comfortably in the living room after dinner. Yi Jiu washed some more fruit, cut it into a fruit plate, and put toothpicks on it, and she took it to the living room.

I was just lying on the sofa leisurely browsing the trending searches when I heard He Jingxin's WeChat message appear on the screen.

She clicked on the WeChat interface

[He Jingxin: Jiujiu, the company is so busy today! Those old-timers are bullying me again. I was so annoyed that I didn’t even have lunch. I’m so busy that I just had a hot meal now.]

【He Jingxin: This restaurant is delicious! Japanese-style grilled meat rice. 】

He Jingxin later posted a photo of dinner.

Yi Jiu looked at the time. It was almost half past eight. She had just had dinner at this time and had not even had lunch. Her heart ached for no reason.

[He Jingxin: I have a shareholders meeting tomorrow to let those old friends know how powerful I am! ]

【He Jingxin: I heard from Shi Ling that you guys are done.】

[He Jingxin: I can come back to see you the day after tomorrow morning at the latest. Can you wait for me? ]

【Yi Jiu: Work hard. 】

After Yi Jiu finished posting this, she saw He Jingxin's dialogue box, which showed that the other party was typing...

She waited for a long time, but she didn't get a reply from He Jingxin. She wondered how many words she should write and what she should enter.

【He Jingxin: 20”】

After hearing a 20-second voice message, Yi Jiu quickly put on the wireless Bluetooth. The gentle and beautiful voice of He Jingxin came...

He Jingxin first exhaled a breath of hot air, which seemed to be transmitted through the other end of the wireless network.

[Jiujiu, the sexy underwear I bought the day before yesterday morning has arrived. The day after tomorrow evening, I would like to invite Mr. Xiaoyi from Chengjiang Group to come and discuss the future of the two groups with me.]

These ambiguous words made Yi Jiu's ears numb and hot, and he couldn't help but smile, which attracted Lu Youning's side glance.

What made her so happy?

Seeing that she was in a good mood, I talked to her properly.

Lu Youning ate a piece of cantaloupe politely. She pursed her lips and said, "Jiujiu, I have a friend who is rich and pretty, and very popular. But, she is trapped in a love relationship."

Yi Jiu's left ear moved. She heard something, some gossip about love.

My right ear has just been satisfied by He Jingxin. There are so many good things happening today.

She was lying down, but as if she had been given a stimulant, she immediately sat up excitedly and put down the phone in her hand.

She looked him up and down very seriously, then turned to Lu Yuning and teased him, "This friend you mentioned is very good-looking and has money power, so it can't be you. In this relationship, are you the active party or the passive party? Does our family know this person? Am I the first one to know about it?"

A series of questions came out of her mouth, full of curiosity.

As expected, everyone likes to discuss gossip about love affairs.

Lu Youning rolled her eyes and denied it immediately: "It's not me."

"Hmm?" She felt embarrassed by the gossip-filled fire in Yi Jiu's eyes and wanted to say something else.

——If not you, who else could it be?

——Tell the truth quickly!!!

She denied it again: "I said it wasn't me, it really wasn't me."

"Oh~~" Yi Jiu was not interested, dragging out the words reluctantly, with a look on his face, it turned out that it was not your love gossip that made me happy for nothing. I thought I was the first one to have the right to know.

She just lay down like Ge You and looked at her phone again. She seemed to send a WeChat message to He Jingxin saying, "I really like your voice. No!" She couldn't soften her bones right now. She was really spineless.

[Yi Jiu: You prepare for your shareholders meeting. Don't bully those old people. Respect the elderly! ]

She looked at He Jingxin's chat page on her phone, staring at the colorful pictures and texts over and over again. Thinking that He Jingxin was concentrating on her career, she turned off the screen.

She was thinking about Lu Yuning's question. Usually, people who ask this kind of question, "What happened to my friend recently?" are not referring to themselves. They use the excuse of friends for the sake of face. She is still pretending with her.

It’s not her, could it have anything to do with me?

She immediately sat up, picked up an orange, peeled it, and asked curiously, "Is your friend an alpha or an omega?"

"Alpha, she comes from a good family. We all think that she and her omega are not suitable. We don't know exactly how. Anyway, she has done everything that a bad omega has done. For example, she used cold violence, only wanted to get without thinking about giving, and abandoned her when the alpha was sick."

Lu Youning picked up the common rhetoric on the Internet. She wanted to see what Yi Jiu thought about this matter, but she would be seen through quickly.

Yi Jiu stuffed an orange into his mouth and caught a few key words that Lu Youning said, cold violence, no dedication, and abandoning her when the alpha was sick.

It's really rubbish and needs a huge crematorium.

"The alpha you're talking about is me, and the bad omega you're talking about is He Jingxin." Yi Jiu said as she finished showing off an orange. She licked her lips, savoring the sweetness of the taste, and picked up a wet towel to wipe her hands.

Seeing that Lu Youning was silent, he thought he was talking about her.

She asked calmly, "What will you do to me if I insist on doing it my own way?"

Lu Youning glared at her and said, "Don't say such angry words."

"I really don't know the answer to this question." Yi Jiu said solemnly. She looked away from the front, closed her eyes, and rubbed her temples with her hands. "She was my first love. The reason why I was moved was that she saved me from the bully in junior high school. She took me out of junior high school and brought me to her university. The moment she played the piano on the stage, she was so serious and focused. It was a highlight moment."

"I am born with a strong liking for the strong, and my first love is beautiful. Her shadow is like a spring breeze blowing into my heart and taking root in my heart. Therefore, I love her. She has an indelible shadow in my heart."

How could she, who is young and full of energy, not like such a person?

"......She said that you two were lovers, and that's true." Lu Youning was disappointed that the relationship could not be resolved. "Are you a love-brained person? You only remember food and not grudges. Go away, stay away from me, I don't want to be infected by you."

Yi Jiu asked back: "You two have met, did you go to persuade them to break up?"

"Yes." Lu Youning gave up and sighed softly, with a mixture of embarrassment, complexity, and heartache. "Otherwise, my little ancestor. With you being like this, your love brain will strike again, which will not affect the family relationship. What do you say we should do? If I don't become a bad person, who do you want to go?"

It turned out that it was Youning who persuaded her to separate, which made her so worried about me.

She only asked for something to prove that I loved her and that I had not and would not break up with her.

"I know you all feel sorry for me and are afraid that I will repeat the same mistake and get hurt again. As long as there is such a sign, you will help me get rid of it without hesitation. She told you about my illness, right?"

"Yes." Lu Youning said self-reproachfully, "We will give you an explanation for your illness."

"I'm not as weak as you think. I know my own emotional life. I know how my feelings are feeling." Yi Jiu reached out and took off the dust cloth in front of him. There happened to be a video call on the iPad. Chu Ranran and Cheng Chencheng were on the video call. They smiled politely but not awkwardly.

Yi Jiu warned: "I'm telling you three, He Jingxin is my girlfriend. Especially you, Cheng Chencheng! If you really have nothing to do, why don't you go to the group and sit down. If you like to persuade people to split up, why don't you open a persuasion agency."

After saying that, Yi Jiu returned to his room.

Lu Youning spread his hands and said with a quick change of expression: "Come on, come on, I admit defeat."

Lu Youning took out her mobile phone and showed the QR code for payment to Cheng Chencheng and Chu Ranran. She was very proud and said with a beaming smile, "Hand over this month's salary."

Alipay received 12,000 yuan

24,000 RMB received via Alipay

The truth is, Cheng Chencheng wanted to break up the couple as usual. But Lu and Chu objected. They asked if they could just stop and not act like this during the New Year. The two of them couldn't persuade Cheng Chencheng.

Finally, it was Lu who had to persuade them to split. If he couldn't, the game would stop there. Lu was sure that Yi Jiu would be angry, but he didn't think the other two would be angry. The loser would be paid one month's salary.

Chu Ranran glared at Cheng Chencheng unwillingly. She had worked so hard in the hospital and had so many surgeries, but in the end she hadn't even gotten her money.

Her cold eyes made her legs go weak. It was this guy who was meddling in other people's business. She had said at the beginning that she should not get involved in emotional matters. Don't make her feel embarrassed.

"I just wanted to do good for her, but in the end she scolded me..." Cheng Chencheng hadn't even finished his complaint when the sound of a machine could be heard from the living room again. This happened twice in a row: 12,000 yuan was deposited into Alipay, and 12,000 yuan was deposited into Alipay, for a total of 24,000 yuan.

Cheng Chencheng glanced at Chu Ranran’s Alipay payment information.

Lu Youning returned the money.

"Fuck you...you are all living ancestors and Yan Wang. I am just the latest leek." Cheng Chencheng was so angry that she laughed. It turned out that she was a complete victim. These two were acting out the classic scene from "Let the Bullets Fly" with her.

"The rich will donate first, and the common people will donate later. After the project is completed, the rich will return their money in full, and the common people's money will be divided into 30% and 70%."

——Let the Bullets Fly

Chu Ranran is the rich man and she is the common people.

"I was wondering why you were so quick to transfer money, Ranran." Cheng Chencheng complained in frustration, "What sins did I commit in my last life to have to meet you three debt collectors in this life? I am either being tricked by you or being tricked by you... Lu Youning, Youning, you are my sister."

Lu Youning said as a matter of course: "Ran Ran and I are best friends."

Cheng Chencheng said cunningly, "We have known each other for a long time."

"Oh! You are so proud of yourself. You have only known me for one day longer than me. What is there to brag about? If you really want to talk about time, Youning and I were desk mates for three years in high school. We even shared the same dorm at night."

Cheng Chencheng was speechless.

"Why are you two still here?" Yi Jiu suddenly asked, startling the three people in the living room. Yi Jiu's face was filled with resentment, and Chu Ranran waved, "Since you're out, we have something to announce, please sit down."

"What is it?"

"Regarding your love affair, the three of us have discussed it and decided not to interfere with your love affair. You can talk to whoever you want." Chu Ranran was the first to announce the final result.

"Anyone is fine, including He Jingxin." Yi Jiu repeated her words, with a hint of doubt in her affirmation. She looked at the video, searching for the other person who was not in the frame, and said doubtfully, "April Fool's Day hasn't even arrived yet, and what will happen to the three of you? Cheng Chencheng actually agreed? This is even less likely than my chance of winning five million."

Cheng Chencheng showed his whole face, extremely arrogant, "Yi Jiu, this is called enlightenment. Things will change over time, and in the future, that villain He Jingxin will call me sister for the rest of her life. My mammary glands are unblocked, and my happiness is built on her constipated face."

She disliked Cheng Chencheng so much that she turned her doubts to Chu Ranran and asked in her heart, "Did you two reach some kind of deal in bed?"

Cheng Chencheng let out a series of goose-like laughs, "Hahahahahahahaha!!!"

Yi Jiu covered his face and commented very pertinently, "You are more like a villain than He Jingxin."

"Alright, alright." Chu Ranran pushed the conspicuous bag away. "We are a family of four and we are going to live together forever. If you really must have Mr. He, you can have a relationship with him and we will definitely not interfere."

"Our request is that you are not allowed to get pregnant before marriage, and you are not allowed to bring your child home before you are married. The three of us will bear the pressure at home, and the three of us will go to work."
