Chapter 35
After the two of them finished cleaning the room, it was already evening. It was not until the guest from the next door right wing knocked on the door and called them out that Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan realized that it was time to gather.
In the next room was a long-married couple, Zheng Bing and Jiang Sunny. They were in their fifties and had been married for thirty years, making them a renowned model couple in the entertainment industry. They had no children, but their relationship was blissful.
Zheng Bing was a nationally popular actor two or three decades ago, a childhood idol for Jiang Tian and her generation. He starred in countless martial arts dramas. Even in person, he exudes the air of a chivalrous hero. His wife, Ms. Jiang, is not a celebrity, not even the daughter of a wealthy family. She's just an ordinary person, looking much older than other actresses her age. She wears old-fashioned clothes and appears without makeup, yet she gives off a surprisingly comfortable and gentle vibe.
No matter where they went, the two of them held each other's hands tightly, like a pair of conjoined twins.
"Hello, Teacher Zheng. Hello, Sister Jiang."
Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan greeted each other politely and modestly.
Zheng Bing and Jiang Sunny, the married couple, were unassuming. They smiled and said, "You're too modest. I wouldn't dare be your teacher, especially Xiao Gu. I've seen many of your plays, and they're all excellent. Even a seasoned veteran like me sincerely admires them."
"No, no, Teacher Zheng, you are our predecessor and role model. We all grew up watching your plays." Gu Jinyan replied with a smile.
Zheng Bing waved his hands repeatedly. "The Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves ahead. I'm no longer strong enough. Now it's all you young people who rule the world. Your generation is incredible. This era is much better than ours."
The two talked as they walked.
Gu Jinyan and Zheng Bing walked in front, while Jiang Tian and Jiang Sunny walked behind.
When standing next to such a gentle woman like Jiang Sunni, Jiang Tian couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. She always felt that she was not ladylike enough, and even walked at a slower pace.
When Gu Jinyan turned around and saw Jiang Tian standing next to Jiang Sunny with such cautious look, he burst out laughing.
When Jiang Tian heard the laughter, she looked up and saw Gu Jinyan trying to hold back his laughter. She glared at him several times in anger and embarrassment. The ladylike mood she had just been building up was now gone.
The two exchanged glances. Jiang Sunny, who was standing next to them, saw everything and said with a smile, "You two young couples seem to have a good relationship and love each other very much."
Jiang Tian: “????”
A look of confusion.
Love each other?
Gu Jinyan and her?
Tianliang Wangpo thought that neither of them loved each other.
If it weren't for the child, they would never have gotten married. If they hadn't been inexplicably transported here and had to complete a mission, they wouldn't even have had a three-month contract.
Love each other even though they saw a ghost.
But since they were participating in a couple's variety show, Jiang Tian couldn't deny it directly. She could only smile subtly and change the subject: "It's okay. You and Teacher Zheng have a very good relationship. It's been the same for decades."
When Jiang Sunni heard someone praise her and her husband's harmony, she seemed to recall her youth and smiled: "In fact, we also had many conflicts when we were young, but couples should work together. No one is born to be with anyone."
The woman in front of him smiled happily. That smile that came from the heart was the result of being washed away by time and seeing through the ups and downs of life.
It can be seen that she and Teacher Zheng Bing have really experienced a lot, which is why she has such feelings now.
"You don't know, but when your teacher Zheng was young, he was actually very self-centered and often didn't consider my feelings. At that time, I was working as a clerk in a state-owned enterprise. He worked in the same office, but because of his outstanding abilities, he was able to become a junior cadre at a young age. At that time, we were dating and our families had agreed to our marriage. The night before we got our marriage certificate, he told me that he was quitting his job to pursue his dream of acting."
Jiang Sunni still felt helpless when she talked about the past, while Jiang Tian's eyes widened in surprise. "You resigned the day before you got the marriage certificate?"
"Yeah, we had already set the date for the marriage the day before, but he told me the night before that he had quit his stable job at a state-owned enterprise to plunge into the entertainment industry. Isn't that infuriating? I was so angry that I cried the whole night, but he didn't say a single good word. Don't look at him now. No matter where he appears, he always takes me with him, stands by me, and always puts me first. But when I was young, I often doubted whether this man had me in his heart."
When Mrs. Zheng talked about this, there was still a hint of resentment in her eyes when she looked at Zheng Bing. It was obvious that she had been holding a grudge for a long time.
"What happened next?" Jiang Tian was a little curious.
Jiang Sunni chuckled at the sound. "What else can I do? Who made me like this man and want to marry him so much? I can only admit defeat. We didn't even get a marriage certificate. He went straight to the entertainment industry the next day. To keep it a secret from my family, I made a fake marriage certificate. We kept it a secret for over a year. It wasn't until he had established himself in the entertainment industry and started to have some small successes appearing on the big screen that my parents and his parents found out that Zheng Bing had gone to the entertainment industry and had thrown away his job at the state-owned enterprise."
Jiang Tian didn't know what to say after listening to this.
Actually, if you think about it this way, this couple is really a good match. One is bold, the other is daring. One dares to act first and report later, the other dares to directly cheat.
It's not that I mean to belittle these two people, but I suddenly felt that there are people who are made for each other. Most people actually need a compatible aura, but she and Gu Jinyan?
There was no future between the two of them. It was already foreshadowed to be over before it even began. There was no need to continue like this.
"In fact, many times it depends on fate and the feelings between two people. It's useless if there is no love between them." Jiang Tian said with a smile.
Jiang Sunni was stunned and couldn't quite figure out what Jiang Tian meant by this.
