Chapter 70 Chapter 70 It’s a mess, drink it while it’s hot…
"Lu Zhizhou?"
Li Xingyan also saw him.
Ming Jiaojiao knew that their ancestors had some relationship, so she naturally brought Lu Zhizhou over and introduced them to the other children.
Lu Zhizhou didn't remember how he walked there. He just felt dizzy and weak in his limbs.
At this moment, Yun Ti recognized him, "You are the one who added me a few days ago."
After finishing the filming of "Lost", she and Lu Zhizhou were only online friends. Although she knew that she had saved him, she did not match the online friend with the real person.
"Do Ti Ti and Lu Zhizhou know each other?" Li Xingyan tilted his head in confusion.
Yun Ti then briefly described how she rescued people from the unfinished building.
Just a few words are enough for others to imagine the thrilling scene at that time.
But everyone is used to it.
Compared with the experiences on the deserted island, this is nothing to Yun Ti.
"Eating a box lunch on the set and saving a big star," He Junzhuo gave a thumbs-up and tactfully handed his business card to Lu Zhizhou. "Teacher Lu, I'm Yun Ti's agent. Look, I have a relationship here. If there are suitable opportunities in the future, please recommend us more..."
"Just... saving him by chance?"
Lu Zhizhou, who had remained silent, spoke.
He looked at Yun Ti quietly for a long time, so long that everyone else noticed something was wrong.
Li Xingyan's face darkened, and he moved sideways to block Yun Ti. "What else?"
He did not immediately connect Lu Zhizhou's unusual behavior with their previous chat records.
I just simply feel that the other person's eyes make me very uncomfortable.
"Sorry, I was abrupt."
Lu Zhizhou quickly calmed down and smiled gently at Yun Ti, "So the boyfriend you told me about that night was Li Xingyan. We're both acquaintances, so it seems like we're destined to be together."
Although he was speaking to Yun Ti, every word he said was meant for Li Xingyan.
Lu Zhizhou hinted that they chatted every night and even talked about emotions, but Yun Ti was unwilling to mention who her boyfriend was.
…
"I'm sure! Lu Zhizhou definitely likes you!"
Ming Jiaojiao finally came to her senses and took a deep breath, "So, he was the one who gave you that row of support cars?"
Taking advantage of the excuse of asking Yun Ti to accompany her back to her room to get something, Ming Jiaojiao began to find out some gossip.
Thinking of the scene where Li Xingyan almost unilaterally fought with Lu Zhizhou just now, she felt both excited and amused. "I really didn't expect Lu Zhizhou to be this kind of person. Tsk tsk, he looks pure and unconcerned with worldly affairs, but he actually stole my brother's girlfriend right in front of him..."
Yun Ti tilted her head in confusion, "Poaching?"
"It means to forcibly separate you and Li Xingyan."
Ming Jiaojiao deliberately described Lu Zhizhou as a villain, quietly trying to gauge his reaction. "Honestly, Ti Ti, what do you think?"
Unexpectedly, Yun Ti's expression suddenly changed.
She stopped and said word by word: "Li Xingyan is mine, no one is allowed to take her away."
Tsk, this kid is so lucky.
Although she had always been bickering with Li Xingyan and disliked each other, Ming Jiaojiao was simply jealous that he had taken the attention of her favorite and best friend away, and she was not dissatisfied with him personally.
Compared with other men, Li Xingyan, a love-minded man who knows everything about a woman, is obviously much more reliable.
Ming Jiaojiao sighed, "Oh, that's great, you two are so happy."
When will she have the chance to experience sweet love?
Thinking of this, Banlue's ugly face suddenly appeared in front of me.
Ming Jiaojiao was so scared that she shook her head violently.
...He's really possessed by a ghost.
Holding the spiral staircase, Ming Jiaojiao told Yun Ti her childhood story as if she was trying to change the subject out of guilt.
She moved into this house when she was nine years old.
Yes, Ming Jiaojiao is not a “real” rich lady.
Her mother was Ming's father's first love, but they were forced to separate due to various practical reasons. Ming's father eventually married his first wife, who had a prominent family background, and gave birth to his eldest son, Ming Qingyang.
But Ming's father could not let go of his first love Bai Yueguang. By chance, the two met again and their love was rekindled.
It was not until Ming Jiaojiao was three years old that her mother realized that she had become a mistress who destroyed other people's families. In a fit of rage, she took her daughter and ran away.
After several years of tossing and turning, when Ming's father found his little daughter, Ming's mother had already passed away due to illness. He resolutely brought Ming Jiaojiao home and gave her all his love as if to make up for it.
In fact, the fatherly love of a wealthy family is not unconditional. Ming Jiaojiao has been very good at reading people's expressions since she was a child.
She was beautiful and sweet-spoken, and not only did she charm Ming's father, but she also won the love of his original wife, who treated her as her own daughter.
Ming Jiaojiao paused, and suddenly regretted why she had such a strong desire to talk, and actually revealed all these unbearable past events.
Would Ti Ti think she was... the daughter of a mistress? Would she look down on her because she wasn't a real daughter? Would she think she was scheming and gradually distance herself from her?
Although she knew Yun Ti was not such a person, Ming Jiaojiao still couldn't help but have wild thoughts.
"Actually, I'm not..." Ming Jiaojiao wanted to defend herself, but her voice became weaker and weaker.
Compared with a strong and brave girl like Ti Ti, she is indeed as delicate as a dodder, clinging to whoever she meets.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ti said calmly, "You are so cute and smart, it would be strange if people don't like you."
Ming Jiaojiao's ears suddenly felt hot, and she raised the corners of her mouth and muttered softly, "It's not as good as you say..."
That stinky train just ignored her.
Under Yun Ti's inquiring gaze, she coughed lightly and puffed up her lips in a boastful manner, "My cheap brother, Ming Qingyang, has never liked me!"
Before he could finish his words, the crisp sound of porcelain hitting the ground could be heard faintly through a door, followed by crackling and clanging sounds.
"Ming Qingyang! Just because I slapped your sister a few times, you want to break off the engagement with me?!"
Lu Ling pointed at the man in front of her angrily, and her peaceful and beautiful face became distorted.
Ming Qingyang pressed his eyebrows, as if he didn't want to get entangled with her any more. "I said, it has nothing to do with Jiaojiao. After spending some time together, I don't think we are suitable."
"Yes! Not suitable! How can you and Ming Jiaojiao be suitable!"
"Lu Ling!"
Ming Qingyang scolded, his eyes full of warning.
Seeing him angry, Lu Ling smiled.
Who could have thought that this marriage that he had worked so hard for would end up like this.
The love of the past also turned into endless resentment.
"Why? You can't tell me? You know best what dirty thoughts you have! You kissed your sister while she was asleep. You really are a good brother!"
“Bang!”
The sound of a slap interrupted the woman's accusation of crossing the line.
Lu Ling covered her face with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes, which fell completely as her body trembled with anger.
"Will beating me erase your sins? You didn't dare face your inner self, so you couldn't wait to arrange a marriage for your sister, forcing her to flee to a deserted island. You should be thankful she returned safely!"
"She's proven she can survive on her own, and you? A complete coward! A pervert who loves his own sister!"
Lu Ling rushed forward like a madman and hit him hard, "You want me to shut up, you want me to keep your secret forever, then don't treat me so unscrupulously!"
Grasping her flailing wrist, Ming Qingyang said indifferently, "Since you know how important Jiaojiao is to me, why do you keep targeting her? Anyone can be my wife, but she is the only sister I have."
After all, it’s all because of Ming Jiaojiao.
Lu Ling staggered back a few steps and turned around in a daze.
The door slammed open from the outside.
Ming Jiaojiao stood outside the door in shock.
I don't know how much she heard.
Ming Qingyang's pupils trembled slightly, and his usually calm expression began to become panicked, "Jiaojiao..."
"Don't be afraid, just say whatever you want to say."
Yun Ti whispered, "Even if they were both combined, they couldn't beat me."
Ming Jiaojiao was originally panicked and embarrassed when she witnessed such a dirty thing, but Yun Ti's words were so realistic that her suspicion of herself naturally turned into anger towards others.
"So you've been forcing me into marriage, saying it's to protect me, but in reality you're just trying to escape your own inner torment?"
Ming Jiaojiao looked at Ming Qingyang in a daze.
"no……"
Without giving him a chance to explain, she glared at him like he was crazy, "Why should I pay for your mistakes? You've been engaged for so long, what are you waiting for? Waiting to see how your fiancée will play tricks on me? Don't tell me you had no idea what she did to me before!"
After scolding Ming Qingyang, she turned around and continued to scold Lu Ling.
"No, are you sick? He likes me, not me. You don't torture him, but take it out on me. Who did I offend? Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Please stop being such a fool!"
"Do you really think life is a play? You're addicted to playing the villain in revenge dramas, right? Can you please uninstall that crappy novel and short play software of yours?"
All the gas lamps surrounding Ming Jiaojiao shattered.
Only after she freed herself from the manipulation of words did she begin to see herself clearly.
Her understanding of herself has always come from the descriptions of people around her.
Others said she was well-behaved and sensible, and that she was delicate and fragile, so she thought she was just like that.
Participating in that survival variety show was the most unconventional thing she had done in all these years.
In "The Wilderness", she maintained the character that others described her as very well from beginning to end.
Even after she knew Ming Qingyang's feelings for her, she did not dare to say anything to anyone, and instead felt guilty towards Ye Xuan.
The words she said today were actually one of the famous scenes in the original book where Ye Xuan "heroically saves the beauty and angrily confronts the scum".
Yun Ti smiled to herself.
Sure enough, these words are more powerful when spoken by girls themselves.
"Still laughing!"
Ming Jiaojiao had just come out of combat and squatted down without any image, as if she had lost all her strength. "You don't even know how to feel sorry for others."
The courtyard is quiet and peaceful at night.
In the distance, the banquet hall was brightly lit and bustling with people.
The melodious string quartet in the orchestra pit faded into the evening breeze, forming a sharp contrast with the passionate and rhythmic quarrel just now.
Ming Jiaojiao couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Actually, I don't like white princess dresses at all, and I don't like the name Jiaojiao."
"Then take it off. Change your name." Yun Ti said concisely.
She pointed at the lawn and turned it clockwise a few times. "Perhaps you could roll around on it and turn it the color of grass, dust, or soil."
Ming Jiaojiao raised her head and looked at Yun Ti quietly, "I discovered that you might be a poet of nature."
She fell to the ground like a broken jar and rolled several times until her priceless pure white dress was completely soiled.
Ming Jiaojiao turned sideways, with her back to Yun Ti, and said in a muffled voice, filled with guilt, "Ti Ti, I'm sorry..."
She got close to Yun Ti at the beginning to use her, just like she used Ye Xuan.
Ming Jiaojiao went to the deserted island alone and wanted to prove herself to her family, but she knew that there were many dangers, so she could only cling to others first and then become independent.
At first, she was attracted to Ye Xuan, who was strong, resolute and relatively familiar, but deep down she didn't like the machismo that permeated his bones.
As Yun Ti showed her strength and even drove to save her regardless of past grudges, she immediately realized that she could switch to a "new host".
It was not until that night in the rainforest, when she nearly died in the mouth of an anaconda, that Ming Jiaojiao truly awakened.
She had never dared to reveal these dark secrets to the other party, for she was afraid of losing Yunti.
Ming Jiaojiao lowered her head and couldn't help sobbing. "I'm terrible... Am I still worthy of being Ti Ti's friend?"
What followed was not spitting or blame, but a warm hand.
Yun Ti patted Ming Jiaojiao's head, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "You know how to protect yourself when you are powerless. This shows that you are a smart girl."
"Besides, you're just borrowing power. Even plants and animals borrow power from nature to help themselves survive. What's wrong with that?"
Ming Jiaojiao was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly grabbed Yun Ti's wrist and asked, "Do you need a girlfriend? Can we be monogamous?"
Looking at the other person's confused but serious expression as if he was considering the feasibility, she burst into laughter and said, "Forget it. I'm afraid of being hunted by Young Master Li. He should be even more crazy than me right now..."
"By the way, why didn't Ti Ti roll on the lawn with me? Were the things you said just now just to comfort me?" Ming Jiaojiao suddenly stood up.
Yun Ti shook her head and declined: "No, the new clothes I bought are very expensive."
"Ah? Yours is expensive, so mine isn't expensive!"
…
The 21st birthday party was grand and ridiculous.
But it is a day that Ming Jiaojiao will always remember.
It's like escaping from the framework of rules and regulations, taking off the mask of the ball, and tearing off the labels given by society.
The pages of the book that bears her name began to turn.
At the same time, Li Xingyan was about to tear Lu Zhizhou's private message box apart.
Thinking about how he had taught this thief Cao everything he knew, he wanted to slap himself a few times and then strangle the other person to death.
Li Xingyan, who was completely blocked, finally called Lu Zhizhou's agent, who then transferred the call to him.
"You actually dared to block me first? I'm really giving you face, huh? Tell me clearly, have you been eyeing Ti Ti for a long time, and that's why you deliberately asked those questions to test me!"
There was a strong vibration on the other end of the phone.
The agent was very nervous and didn't dare to say anything when he saw his golden artist's face covered with bruises.
Lu Zhizhou waved his hand, signaling him to go out first.
After a while, he sat on a lounge chair in the open air with a calm expression and lit a cigarette. "Whether you believe it or not, I just found out that Titi is your girlfriend."
"Titi?" Li Xingyan suddenly raised his voice, "Do you think you can call her Titi?"
Very noisy.
On the computer screen, the live highlights of "Survivor Game" were still playing, flashing complex lights in the darkness.
Since coming back, Lu Zhizhou has been watching it for several hours without stopping.
He gradually became able to recognize all the people he met at the banquet today through the live broadcast.
When Li Xingyan was furious, the person who stopped him and told him to "calm down" but actually gave him an elbow secretly was the favorite to win, Ye Xuan.
He Junzhuo, a funny and cunning man, asked with concern, "Teacher Lu, are you okay?" But the person who actually stepped on his foot hard was He Junzhuo.
The big guy who rolled up his sleeves and started working was Cui Da, and the one who held him back but silently rolled his eyes at him was Su Jian...
Not to mention the dark-skinned man with a crew cut, a ruffian look, and a dark aura all over his body.
He immediately pulled Li Xingyan away and said, "Don't move. If you get hurt, your sister will blame me." Then he kicked himself away without saying a word.
"Even if Li Xingyan isn't my sister's partner, it won't be your turn."
…
To be honest, this is the first time Lu Zhizhou has been so embarrassed in his life.
But he only felt envy.
I envy Li Xingyan for actually having a group of good friends. What’s even more envious is that he and Yun Ti have experienced so many thrilling and magnificent stories, and he finally got the girl he wished for.
Envious to the point of jealousy.
How could this person be so lucky?
but……
"Can you hold her?"
The cigarette butt flickered crimson between his fingertips. Lu Zhizhou took a slow puff, the bluish-white smoke blurring his features. "You're actually quite unsure, too, right? That's why you're so angry."
Li Xingyan was choked for a moment.
This half-minute silence made Lu Zhizhou chuckle. He squinted his eyes and put out his cigarette. "Go to school with peace of mind, Master Li. I will take good care of your girlfriend for you."
"Thank you for your teaching, it's very useful."
