Chapter 49 Surprise! So this is a new use for baguettes? ...
Jiang Shunian easily defused two consecutive difficult attempts, and even the most foolish host knew he couldn't come a third time.
She was somewhat unwilling, but she could only temporarily stop and obediently continue to urge others to go through the procedures.
Jiang Shunian didn't know if the host was arranged by the Qin family. He had a feeling that it wasn't, but he decided to investigate anyway. Now was a critical period in the struggle with the Qin family, and he didn't want to be tricked by someone without knowing why.
No one expected that this publicity campaign would be so successful; the production team is practically worshipping Jiang Shunian.
They were originally planning to buy some trending topics to promote their show, but now, thanks to riding on Nono's popularity, their show's pre-orders have skyrocketed and have now exceeded 1.2 million.
This is simply a miracle.
It's worth noting that before the promotional campaign began, relying on the gimmick of rebirth and the support of fans of the original work, the number of pre-orders was less than 100,000.
Jiang Shunian received a large red envelope from the executive producer in the group chat. The producer specifically instructed Jiang Shunian to forward it to President Nuo as a way of thanking President Nuo for the huge amount of traffic he brought.
Jiang Shunian was left both amused and exasperated.
After helping Lu Yunchuan pay the bill, Nuonuo also picked out a long down jacket for Jiang Shunian. Her father needed to travel all over the country for promotional activities, and it would be very cold in the north, so this down jacket would be suitable.
He didn't ask the price and paid directly by swiping his smartwatch.
The shop assistant recognized Nuonuo. Seeing Nuonuo's charming little figure paying, the assistant remained calm on the surface but screamed inwardly. After not seeing him for a long time, Nuonuo's appearance had become more and more exquisite and cute, and his every move had also gained a touch of the noble temperament of a young master from a wealthy family.
It makes one eagerly anticipate what kind of charm Nono will have when she grows up more than ten years from now.
The staff will arrange for someone to deliver the clothes directly to the accommodation. Next, Nono bought two pairs of sunglasses for her dad, because her dad will become more and more famous in the future and will need to use sunglasses to cover up.
Moreover, Nuonuo bought a pair of the same style for her father, Fu Yanli, who was very happy that his son had personally bought them as a couple.
As soon as the event ended, Jiang Shunian told Fu Yanli about being harassed by the host. Fu Yanli took it very seriously and immediately arranged for someone to investigate.
The results came quickly: the host was indeed not arranged by the Qin family, but he was somewhat related to them.
The host's husband is a male celebrity whose career has faded somewhat. He had his eye on the show "Baby Travel Plan" and tried to pull strings to get him and their child on the show so he could revive his career. However, his child wasn't selected, but Jiang Shunian and Nuonuo did, and they became an overnight sensation.
She felt that Jiang Shunian had stolen her husband's opportunity, and she also heard from somewhere that Jiang Shunian had offended Qin Guanyue. So she wanted to use Jiang Shunian to curry favor with the Qin family. Therefore, for various reasons, she targeted Jiang Shunian at the event.
Jiang Shunian knew it wasn't arranged by the Qin family, so she didn't bother to pursue it and continued to the next city to promote her work.
But Fu Yanli wouldn't let the person who bullied his wife get away with it. He sent someone to find dirt on the host husband and exposed it directly. It turned out that her husband not only liked to have affairs with couples on set, but also patronized escorts.
The investigation uncovered even more bizarre things, which were also revealed.
Back then, her husband was her best friend's boyfriend. This TV host took a liking to him, thinking he was a promising prospect, so she tried every means to seduce him, and the two of them betrayed her best friend.
As a result, this man's acting was too stiff and greasy. Although he was popular for a while, he was quickly eliminated by the market and abandoned by capital.
The host had also considered divorce, but she was very concerned about her image and unwilling to admit that she had poor judgment, especially since she was already married and had children, and her looks were not top-notch, making it difficult to find a suitable partner to marry. That's why she tried every means to help her husband regain his fame.
But they didn't expect to run into Jiang Shunian, a tough nut to crack.
Because this male celebrity was completely washed up, and this kind of gossip is too common in the entertainment industry, it didn't even make it into the top five trending topics. It stayed in the middle of the trending list for half a day before being replaced by new news.
However, their relationship was completely broken.
Jiang Shunian knew that Fu Yanli was behind this sudden revelation, as it was to protect her. Therefore, she said "thank you" to Fu Yanli. Fu Yanli, however, was quite blunt and made a request, hoping that Jiang Shunian would take the initiative to kiss him after returning home from the event.
Jiang Shunian simply pretended not to see it.
The subsequent activities went very smoothly and were very successful. The number of reservations for "Starlight for You" has reached 2.3 million, barely managing to get on the verge of becoming a hit.
By the time the last stop of the promotional event ended, it was already 7 p.m., and the weather was overcast with a forecast predicting sleet.
When his assistant asked him when he wanted to book his flight, Jiang Shunian checked the booking website and found a flight at 9:50 p.m. that would land around midnight. He booked the ticket without hesitation.
He missed Nuonuo very much, and of course, he also missed Fu Yanli a little.
Yu Yanchen had to fly directly to the film set for a script reading, so they parted ways. The two agreed to meet again at the end of the year when they had a break. Jiang Shunian had a quick meal with his assistant and then headed to the airport.
The two had been video chatting almost every day during this period. Jiang Shunian wanted to give Fu Yanli a surprise, so he didn't tell Fu Yanli that he would be back tonight. Instead, he sent Fu Yanli a message saying that he was a little tired today and wanted to rest early.
Fu Yanli replied "okay" and added, "I will miss you."
Jiang Shunian was thinking of performing a surprise on Fu Yanli later, wondering if Fu Yanli would be pleasantly surprised.
Before the plane took off, fine rain and snowflakes like salt grains fell from the sky, making Jiang Shunian nervous that the flight might be canceled. Fortunately, this airline is known for its hardcore takeoffs and rarely cancels flights even in bad weather. Jiang Shunian boarded the plane smoothly and even arrived half an hour early.
Jiang Shunian had a scarf around his neck that Fu Yanli had put on him before he left, covering most of his face. He also wore a hat that obscured most of his features. He said to his assistant, "You've worked hard these past few days. I'll give you a few days off."
"Thank you, Brother Jiang," Li Hehe said happily.
The two pushed their luggage out of the airport and were about to call a taxi when they saw a man standing silently at the terminal exit.
He wore a dark cashmere coat, was tall and upright, had a handsome face, and exuded a noble and composed demeanor.
He didn't know how long he had been waiting, but the moment Jiang Shunian appeared, he locked onto him and strode over to him, taking the luggage from his hands.
Jiang Shunian stared blankly at Fu Yanli for a long time before she reacted: "How did you know I was coming back tonight?"
Did the assistant inform her in advance? No, he reminded Hehe to keep it a secret.
Fu Yanli took Jiang Shunian's hand and cupped his slightly cool fingers in his palm: "No one told me, I guessed it. Shunian, I was already pleasantly surprised when I guessed it."
No wonder everyone loves to hear sweet words of love, no wonder everyone loves to be cherished. Jiang Shunian could hardly contain her love and wanted to hug Fu Yanli right now.
Fortunately, he managed to restrain himself.
The two walked side by side. Fu Yanli had arranged two cars, one of which was specifically for taking his assistant home.
The assistant cheerfully said goodbye to the two and got into the car, and Fu Yanli opened the car door for Jiang Shunian.
The rear seat partition of this car is raised, and it's an SUV model, so it's very spacious.
Jiang Shunian only realized what was happening when he got into the car.
As soon as the car started, a hand appeared around Jiang Shunian's waist, pulling him to the side. Jiang Shunian used the force to fall directly into Fu Yanli's arms. Just as he was about to look up and say something, Fu Yanli's kiss landed on him relentlessly.
The two kissed passionately inside the car, and Jiang Shunian, afraid that the driver in front would hear, kept quiet.
This only fueled Fu Yanli's arrogance. Not only did the other man kiss him passionately, but he also slipped his hand under Fu Yanli's clothes, lingering on his waistline and then moving upwards...
Jiang Shunian trembled slightly and instinctively snuggled into his arms, trying to avoid the intrusion of his fingers, but he was already dazed from the kiss and had no strength to resist.
After the long kiss ended, Jiang Shunian lay in Fu Yanli's arms, already feeling sleepy.
"Take a nap first, I'll wake you when we get home." Fu Yanli's fingers were still holding Jiang Shunian's shoulders as he pulled him closer to his chest.
Jiang Shunian swore he wanted to sleep, but Fu Yanli's presence beneath him was too overwhelming.
It's just a kiss, why are you so excited? Jiang Shunian tried to adjust his position, but Fu Yanli held him down and chuckled, "Shunian, this height should be acceptable as a pillow."
Jiang Shunian: "..."
So is this a new use for baguettes?
Jiang Shunian still wanted to be a normal person, so he insisted on changing his position and sleeping with his head on Fu Yanli's lap.
Fu Yanli chuckled softly again.
Jiang Shunian woke up just as the car came to a smooth stop in the underground parking lot. The thought of seeing Nuonuo soon made him eager to go home.
Nono was already asleep, her long eyelashes drooping peacefully, like a little angel.
Jiang Shunian looked at her son tenderly for a while, gently tucked the blanket around him, and left quietly.
As it turned out, Nono seemed to sense that her father had returned and actually woke up. When she saw her father, she thought she was dreaming and rubbed her eyes. After confirming that it was really her father who had come home early, Nono became excited and exclaimed, "Daddy, you're back! I missed you so much!"
After saying that, she stretched out her two little arms and begged Jiang Shunian to give her a hug.
Jiang Shunian responded immediately, picking Nuonuo up: "I missed Nuonuo too, so I came back early to give Nuonuo a surprise."
"I'm really surprised, Daddy!" Nono said sweetly, just like Fu Yanli. "Can I sleep with Daddy tonight?"
"sure."
Before Fu Yanli could object, he could only watch helplessly as Jiang Shunian carried Nuonuo back to their bedroom and placed her in the middle of the bed.
Well, they were able to share a bed in the first place because Nuonuo helped them. He shouldn't be so ungrateful.
Or they could wait until Nono falls asleep before going to the bathroom to be intimate; that would be even more exciting.
As a result, while Jiang Shunian was trying to coax Nuonuo, he also managed to coax himself to sleep.
Fu Yanli stared at the sleeping father and son, truly unable to bear waking Jiang Shunian.
A thought popped into his head: it seemed there wasn't any important work scheduled for tomorrow morning.
The next morning, Jiang Shunian took Nuonuo to kindergarten, and when she got home, she saw Fu Yanli, who hadn't gone to work yet.
"Aren't you going to work today?" Jiang Shunian asked, somewhat puzzled.
But he didn't get a reply, because Fu Yanli had already grabbed him and was carrying him into the bedroom.
