☆, Chapter 17
Jiang Tian deliberately made things difficult for Gu Jinyan. Since someone had made such a boast and told him to order whatever he wanted, she naturally wouldn't be polite. She took out her cell phone, searched "eight major cuisines" on Baidu, and started to list them immediately.
"I want to eat sweet and sour carp, spicy pork intestines, braised pork with preserved vegetables, baked lobster in soup, lion's head, chicken in tomato sauce, steamed pork with rice flour in lotus leaf, and Xianglian with rock sugar."
I ordered eight dishes in one go.
But Gu Jinyan didn't even blink.
Turn around and look at her.
"Finished?"
"Yeah~ It's over."
Jiang Tian couldn't help blinking her big eyes and then saw Gu Jinyan pushing a shopping cart to the vegetable area on the second floor.
Fresh shrimp, fish, sesame oil and vinegar.
Everything he needed was found accurately and put into the shopping cart. When Jiang Tian came to her senses, Gu Jinyan had already filled the shopping cart.
Before leaving the food area, I didn’t forget to buy some fruit.
Jiang Tian was a little surprised. It seemed that she was not exaggerating when she said she came to the supermarket often.
Jiang Tian didn't have to worry about queuing up to pay the bill. She was the first to leave the checkout area, waited outside, and stood watching Gu Jinyan inside.
Look at him, a tall man of about 1.8 meters, squeezed among a group of old men and women, wearing a black baseball cap on his head, covering half of his face but still revealing the lower half.
The nose bridge is straight and the lips are as thin as leaves.
The jawline is also harder than that of ordinary people.
To be honest, Gu Jinyan's face is really popular. He looks very photogenic whether on the big screen or in TV dramas. His face is so perfect that sometimes people ignore his acting skills.
But this guy is such a genius with first-class acting skills. It is really enviable that he won two Best Actor trophies at such a young age.
After becoming famous, he retreated behind the scenes and became the master of half of the entertainment industry. Just thinking about this extravagant life is so exciting. If he wants to make a comeback one day, he can always come out and indulge his acting addiction.
But it seemed that in her previous life, until her death, she never saw Actor Gu make a comeback and start filming again.
"Leave."
When Gu Jinyan passed by her, he glanced at her and reminded her.
Jiang Tian said "Oh" and followed him.
Maybe it was because he was taking care of himself because he was pregnant, but Gu Jinyan had no intention of letting her share any of the weight from beginning to end. Jiang Tian felt a little embarrassed carrying two full bags the whole time.
Drive back to the villa.
After parking the car in the garage, the two came out and saw someone standing at the door.
Jiang Tian's face suddenly turned dark.
If this isn't Zhao Xiying who has disappeared for two weeks, then who is she?
Zhao Xiying was stunned when she saw the two people coming out of the garage and Gu Jinyan was holding two large bags of food in his hands.
"Ayan, did you... go out to buy groceries with Miss Jiang? Why didn't you let Auntie go?"
Gu Jinyan never goes to the supermarket, at least when he was with her. Every time she asked Gu Jinyan to go together, he would refuse. But when she saw Gu Jinyan standing next to Jiang Tian with the ingredients in his hands, she inexplicably felt that the two of them were so well matched.
Zhao Xiying's face looked very ugly.
"Aunt Wang and Sister Sun are not here, what do you want?"
Gu Jinyan looked at Zhao Xiying coldly.
Jiang Tian stood behind Gu Jinyan, with her big round eyes wide open, carefully observing the expressions of the two men, not daring to miss a single detail.
After all, under the curse cast by fans, he was going to be killed by these two people joining forces.
Jiang Tian was feeling very anxious.
Suddenly, a ding sound rang in my mind.
[The system randomly drops a counterattack mission #The second female lead and the male lead show their affection, making Jiang Tian, that silly and innocent girl, jealous to death#. The reward for completing the mission is 1 point.]
“…”
here we go again.
Why haven't I seen this item before when I looked through the task list?
A counterattack to show affection?
How to slap someone in the face?
Whose face are you slapping?
Zhao Xiying's or Gu Jinyan's?
It was obviously wrong to show affection with Zhao Xiying and slap Gu Jinyan in the face. That could only be...
Jiang Tian's eyes lit up.
Just as Zhao Xiying was about to speak, Jiang Tian stood on tiptoe, hugged the man in front of her, and said coquettishly, "Hubby, Miss Zhao, it's a rare opportunity for us to come here, how can we just let others stand outside like this? Come in quickly, I'm a little cold."
Gu Jinyan: ...
He twitched his eyes as he watched Jiang Tian's face full of a devilish smile, and her waist twisting like a water snake. He frowned and wanted to pick her up and stand her up right now, but...
"Um."
With a stiff neck, he nodded.
Zhao Xiying was petrified: "..."
Gu Jinyan opened the door first and carried the things into the house. Jiang Tian followed behind him. When he was about to enter the house, he turned around and looked at Zhao Xiying with a smile, "Sister Zhao, come in, don't be shy."
When she was changing shoes, she opened the shoe cabinet, took a look, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Oh, sorry, there are only Yanyan and I slippers here, they are couple slippers, so it is not convenient for me to give them to you, but there are no other ones. If you don't mind, you can use Aunt Wang or Sister Sun's first, and I will buy them new ones later."
She was holding a pair of simple and old-fashioned cloth shoes in her hands, which were obviously worn by older people.
Zhao Xiying's face turned dark.
Haha, buying new clothes for the maid and letting her wear old ones, is Jiang Tian trying to say that those two maids still despise her?!
Zhao Xiying tried her best to suppress her anger.
She smiled with her lips curved: "No, I can just go barefoot."
As he said this, he bent down and took off her shoes.
Walk barefoot on the floor.
Jiang Tian stood behind her and raised her eyebrows.
Put the two pairs of cloth shoes back.
Gu Jinyan just came out of the kitchen.
Zhao Xiying took a deep breath and spoke hesitantly.
"Ayan, I have something to talk to you about..."
Her fair and delicate face showed a bit of helplessness, worry and a hint of pleading. With her hair as thin as clear soup noodles and her plain white dress that looked like a funeral, she really looked a bit pitiful.
In contrast, Jiang Tian, wearing a black and white striped shirt and black flared trousers, seemed a bit tough, as if she was bullying someone, especially when Zhao Xiying kept using her eyes to indicate that Jiang Tian was still there.
Jiang Tian sneered inwardly, shook her head, and quickly put on a sweet smile on her face: "Hubby~ I'm a little tired, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable, so I'll go upstairs first. You talk to Miss Zhao."
As she walked past Gu Jinyan, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. "Let's sit here together. It's nothing shameful. We'll have dinner soon. Come upstairs after you're full."
"Oh, is this really appropriate?"
Jiang Tian looked at Zhao Xiying with a sly look.
Zhao Xiying was so angry that she was about to explode.
But Gu Jinyan just refused to drive Jiang Tian away.
She didn't understand at all.
Didn’t Gu Jinyan dislike Jiang Tian before?
For the sake of his personality and image, he can
He tolerated Jiang Tian before, but why did Gu Jinyan act like this in front of her!
Could it be that he really has a crush on Jiang Tian? !
Zhao Xiying's face turned pale and blue.
The three of them sat on the sofa. Jiang Tian had the most relaxed posture. She pinched her wrist and relaxed her muscles. After pinching a few times, Gu Jinyan naturally took her wrist and pinched it for her.
Jiang Tian: “…”
He was stunned for a moment and looked at Gu Jinyan in disbelief.
But then I understood.
Gu Jinyan was cooperating with her in acting!
He is worthy of being the best actor, so professional!
He was so into the role in seconds that even she almost believed it!
Zhao Xiying's face hasn't looked good since she entered the villa, and now she feels uneasy even when sitting down.
"My agent said that my image has plummeted since that incident, so I hope you, Ayan, can help me clarify this. I..." Zhao Xiying looked a little embarrassed.
"Clarify? Hasn't it been clarified? Yanyan, what do you think?"
Jiang Tian asked curiously.
He raised his head and looked at Gu Jinyan, who nodded, "Yeah. Tiantian is right."
Zhao Xiying: ...
My face hurts.
"But the role you promised me isn't available anymore. I just returned to China, and because of that incident, no one's approached me about acting. I... Ah Yan, please help me. Is that okay, considering our long-standing friendship? I know that the Weibo post was my fault, but I really didn't mean it that way. I really just wanted to show off our friendship. I..."
Zhao Xiying looked like she was about to cry.
Jiang Tian couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Even Zhao Xiying, who had such a strong mental quality, was almost in tears. It seemed that she was forced into a desperate situation.
But……
You still look like a disgusting white lotus!
She turned to look at Gu Jinyan.
He looked like he was enjoying a good show.
Logically speaking, Gu Jinyan and the supporting actress are a perfect match, so he should help his old lover at this time. After all, she was the one who sent him flowers.
But what was unexpected was that Gu Jinyan did speak, but he simply refused.
"I'm sorry, but I can't help you. I'm afraid my wife will be upset."
“…”
"Besides, I think you have a talent for acting. If you study hard on your own, you may be able to make a name for yourself. If you just rely on others for help, you will always be dependent. I will go visit Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao in the next few days. I heard that Uncle Zhao was hospitalized, but I haven't had time to see him yet. Fortunately, I know a doctor in North City who can help arrange it for you."
“…”
If the former was to cut off Zhao Xiying's thoughts, then the latter was to directly cut off Zhao Xiying's retreat.
The Zhao family has done the Gu family a favor, but that favor is only the favor the elders owe to Gu Jinyan.
Uncle Zhao is sick and has difficulty finding medical treatment, so Gu Jinyan offers this favor as a way of repaying the kindness he showed him in the past.
Before this, Zhao Xiying could use the past to blame Gu Jinyan.
But from now on, Zhao Xiying can no longer stand firm.
Zhao Xiying was rejected so simply that she could not stay any longer and left the villa in a hurry.
At this moment, Jiang Tian's head made a buzzing sound.
The system prompts that the task has been completed.
Reward points are stored again.
Jiang Tian laughed as she looked at the points she had saved up.
She'd previously spent three points on the Rejuvenating Lotion, but she hadn't noticed any effect at the time. But after a few days of filming late at night, she finally realized it was working. Her skin would normally have dulled after a night scene, but this time, there was no effect at all. This Rejuvenating Lotion was far more reliable than any other brand-name cosmetics.
If possible, she would like to have a few such random drop tasks every day.
Gu Jinyan closed the door and turned around to see Jiang Tian smiling foolishly.
Raise an eyebrow.
He smiled and said, "Satisfied?"
