☆, Chapter 61
Gu Jinyan saw Jiang Tian seemed a little agitated. He wasn't sure what she was thinking about, so he simply said honestly, "I saw it in a newspaper when I was a kid, and it's always been vivid in my memory. Nowadays, it's impossible to find the newspaper where the comic strip was serialized, or to find the original creator. So, I had to create my own work based on this theme. And speaking of which... I'm kind of grateful to this original creator. During the darkest times of my life, it was her reply that gave me the motivation to keep going."
He slowly told the story of the past.
More than ten years ago, he accidentally saw this cartoon in the newspaper. The protagonist in the story was a bit miserable, but still yearned for a better life.
At that time, Gu Jinyan was facing the darkest time in his life. The family business was on the verge of bankruptcy, and his father had passed away. The family could only live in the Zhao family and accept help from Zhao Xiying's father.
During those two years, Gu Jinyan survived by corresponding with the author of "The Blind Girl" and receiving encouragement from the other party's inspirational words.
Jiang Tian became even more excited when she heard Gu Jinyan say this.
Their little faces flushed with excitement.
My eyes couldn't help but become moist.
She didn't know if Jiang Tian in this world had ever done anything like this, but in her previous life, when she was a child, she had serialized a comic strip called "Blind Girl" in the newspaper. It was because her homeroom teacher mentioned it to the class when she was in school. She wasn't interested at first, but she knew that if she submitted a successful serialized comic, she would receive a monthly reward of fifty yuan.
More than a decade ago, a fifty-dollar bonus was enough to cover her expenses for a month.
Jiang Tian is an orphan. Her parents died early and she has been living in an orphanage with several older children.
Fifty dollars at that time was definitely a temptation for a child like this.
So she borrowed paper and pen from her classmates and submitted the manuscript.
The prototype of this manuscript was a little girl in her welfare home, a blind girl.
But she didn't expect that this comic would be seen by Gu Jinyan.
She did receive letters from a reader quite often back then, but she was too young to reply, so she asked the older sisters at the orphanage to write for her. Besides the mutual encouragement between the two, this reader also provided her with many ideas, which always gave her inspiration when she ran out of ideas.
Now it seems that the person turned out to be Gu Jinyan?
But what on earth is going on?
"Gu Jinyan, I want to ask you a question." Jiang Tian restrained her inner excitement and looked at Gu Jinyan's eyes which were extremely bright. It seemed that the concealment that had shrouded Jiang Tian's eyes these days disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"You say." Gu Jinyan couldn't help but become a little serious when he saw her like this.
"When did you and I first meet? When was I adopted by your family? Did I draw when I was a child? Did I... ever tell them where I wanted to submit my work?"
Jiang Tian's series of questions actually left Gu Jinyan stunned.
He paused and shook his head.
"No."
"You came to our house ten years ago. Your mother passed away, and my mom felt sorry for you so she brought you here. What happened? Why are you suddenly asking me about these things? Have you... forgotten?" Gu Jinyan looked at her with some worry. After all, Jiang Tian seemed a little abnormal during this period. Gu Jinyan thought she had forgotten these things and became even more worried about her.
But Jiang Tian confirmed her idea.
Yes, Jiang Tian in this world's mother passed away ten years ago. At that time, Gu Jinyan's family had already emerged from the haze, and Gu's mother turned the situation of Gu's enterprise around with her own efforts. The original Jiang Tian was taken home by Mo Yan after losing her mother.
In other words, that "Jiang Tian" had never been to an orphanage, and there would be no submission for "The Blind Girl".
But Jiang Tian herself is different.
She had been abandoned in an orphanage since she was a child because she had no parents.
I don’t even know who my parents are, let alone who my mother’s best friends are.
So the Jiang Tian in this world and myself are completely two different people, with completely different life development trajectories. The only strange thing is why Jiang Tian’s submission in the previous life was seen by Gu Jinyan, and why I also know the letters sent by Gu Jinyan?
Moreover, calculating the time, the space and time between them are not parallel, and the time difference is exactly three years.
In other words, the comic strip that Jiang Tian started serializing in the newspaper when she was thirteen years old was seen by Gu Jinyan, who was thirteen years old in the time and space three years ago. So the two people communicated with each other after three years, separated by the world of reality and the world of fiction?
What is going on?
Jiang Tian frowned, puzzled.
But even so, a bold idea came to her mind.
This world originated from the original world, so does it mean that there is actually some special connection between the two worlds, which can be connected to the previous world? Can I return to the original world through some channel, and can I return from the original world to the current world?
If that's the case, when I'm sent back to my original world a year later, will I be able to find a passage back to my current world?
Jiang Tian was thinking wildly, but now there was no smart light brain in her mind. No one could tell her the answer, and she didn't know what to do.
Gu Jinyan saw Jiang Tian sleeping next to him, tossing and turning, as if she was thinking about something.
She asked with some confusion: "Why do you suddenly ask that? Jiang Tian, is there something you haven't told me?" Gu Jinyan stared at her.
Jiang Tian felt uneasy when she was looked at and almost blurted out the truth, but she held herself back at the critical moment.
She was already very distressed, and she didn't want Gu Jinyan to suffer with her.
If she is really sent away on April 1 next year, and the original Jiang Tian returns to her body to continue accompanying Gu Jinyan, then perhaps it will be a good ending. At least there will be someone who truly loves Gu Jinyan and stays by his side, and she will be satisfied with that.
He pursed his lips twice, smiled and shook his head: "Nothing, go to sleep."
Gu Jinyan stared at her for a long time, but couldn't see anything from her face, so he could only follow her.
…
Ever since discussing the film "Blind Girl", Jiang Tian has devoted herself to helping Gu Jinyan prepare for the filming of the film.
She vaguely remembered that in her previous life, the first art film produced by Gu Jinyan's "Therefore I Am" cultural company was well-received and won numerous awards, but it was not a commercial success and lost a lot of money. Later, the second commercial film was a huge hit and made a lot of money.
Based on this calculation, the realistic art film "The Blind Girl" should be the one with good reputation but poor sales.
But since it is Gu Jinyan's dream, Jiang Tian also wants to help him realize it.
The couple had the same understanding of the story, so they were very quick in getting things done. Many situations where Gu Jinyan was not convenient to appear were basically left to Jiang Tian to handle.
With Jiang Tian's recommendation, Gu Jinyan recruited Jiang Jingchao, Director Jiang, and also recruited He Fulai as producer.
The cast of the male and female protagonists were selected by Jiang Tian based on her impressions from her previous life, except that some of the actors were personally assessed by Gu Jinyan.
In this drama, Jiang Tian plays the leading female role, while Zhang Wanwan plays the third female role, a very controversial character. After learning the news, Zhang Wanwan thanked Jiang Tian profusely, but Jiang Tian was indifferent to her. Because the original intention of inviting Zhang Wanwan was not just to give her an opportunity, but because she was more suitable for the role, so they wanted to give her the role.
As for the other characters, Jiang Tian also had candidates in mind.
Preparations are in full swing.
Gu Jinyan's belly was getting bigger day by day.
At the same time, after the new prenatal checkup, Ji Wenli looked at the couple and suddenly realized a serious problem. One was Jiang Tian who was busy as a tyke, and the other was Gu Jinyan who was waiting for the birth with peace of mind. But the problem was...
"The baby is three months away. I want to say, although Lao Gu doesn't have to go out and worry about being seen pregnant, but Jiang Tian, you're going out and about all day with a flat belly. When the baby is born in three months, how are you going to explain to the media that you gave birth to a child in three months with a flat belly?"
Gu Jinyan: “…”
Jiang Tian: “…”
Mo Yan: “…”
Well, no one in the family had ever thought about this problem, and now that Ji Wenli brought it up, the whole family was stunned.
Indeed, Jiang Tian is running around outside because she wants to take care of Gu Jinyan and prevent him from being exposed to the eyes of outsiders. But the problem is that Gu Jinyan will give birth to a child in three months. Even if the child grows up and appears in public, and the child is registered, he will eventually have to be brought out to show up. Now Jiang Tian has been exposed to everyone, and now she still has a flat belly. What will outsiders think then?
Three months ago, her belly was flat, and three months later, she suddenly gave birth to a baby. It seems a bit weird no matter how you look at it.
"So what are we going to do?"
Gu Jinyan and Jiang Tian looked at Ji Wenli in confusion. Ji Wenli shook his head and helplessly slapped a medical report in front of Jiang Tian.
The name on the examination report is Jiang Tian's, and some of the ultrasound reports also have falsified data.
It's just because it's issued by a regular hospital, so other people can't tell what it is.
"Post this on Weibo and announce that you're pregnant. After three months, when Gu Jinyan gives birth, you can pretend to be in confinement and go out again without any problems."
Jiang Tian suddenly understood and was extremely grateful after picking up the report.
After returning, Gu Jinyan and Jiang Tian looked at each other and posted the fake report online.
[Gu Jinyan V: @Jiang Tian V: The baby is doing well. There are still 100 days until the due date. Looking forward to it~]
[Jiang Tian V: I hope everything goes well. The doctor said my belly is too small and I can't see it yet. What should I do? Repost // Gu Jinyan V: @Jiang Tian v: The baby is doing well. There are still 100 days until the due date. Looking forward to it~]
The two pieces of news suddenly appeared within less than a second of each other, and netizens were instantly excited.
Many netizens screamed and shouted.
[Oh my god, this is impossible, this is a lie, Sister Jiang is pregnant? ]
[Oh my god, what happened? Pregnant before marriage?]
Wasn't Jiang Jie's belly flat before? It doesn't look like it's gotten any bigger, and it's already been six months? This is terrifying.
[On the pregnancy of female celebrities and that of ordinary people...]
【……】
There were many shocked comments online.
Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan watched in fear and didn't notice any extreme comments. Many people just suspected that it was a surrogacy, and then they were criticized back by other netizens. Many people were also worried about whether Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan were pregnant before marriage. After all, there was no information about their marriage before.
The two people who saw the message in bed looked at each other, and almost at the same time, they got up and rummaged through the drawers to find their marriage certificate. They looked at each other tacitly and then put the two bright red marriage certificates together on the bed.
[Gu Jinyan V: @Jiang Tian V: Showing off my baby's certificate of eligibility.]
[Jiang Tian V@Gu Jinyan V: Tickets, get on the bus.]
As soon as the two of them finished posting, there was another wave of disapproval on the Internet.
Immediately afterwards, two hot searches appeared online:
#Gu Jinyan and Jiang Tian get their marriage certificate
#GingerTianPregnancy
These two trending searches spread across the internet like rockets in a very short period of time.
It was rising at a speed that was absolutely unprecedented and would never be repeated. Both Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan were surprised.
It seems that netizens are still very concerned about the relationship between her and Gu Jinyan.
At that time, there were also a lot of congratulations under my comment.
Many people have even begun to analyze from various professional and non-professional perspectives whether the child Jiang Tian is pregnant with is a boy or a girl.
After I posted this on Weibo.
In addition to receiving many congratulatory messages online, Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan's phones were also about to be flooded with calls.
Su Ling, Cheng Fang, Lu Xin, the director, the producer, the investor, and many former colleagues all called, all of them congratulating him. Some even criticized Gu Jinyan, saying that he didn't invite them to a banquet for the engagement, but he didn't even invite them to dinner after getting the marriage certificate.
Are you not planning to treat us to a meal even after the baby is born?
Gu Jinyan and Jiang Tian could only laugh foolishly.
On the other side, Cheng Fang called soon and asked Jiang Tian what was going on. How could the child be six months old so soon? After all, Jiang Tian and Cheng Fang had been together for the past few months. Cheng Fang had never realized that Jiang Tian was pregnant. This made Cheng Fang find it unbelievable.
What is even more unbelievable are the investors. Can you imagine that the woman you saw a few days ago still had a flat belly, but in fact she was already six months pregnant?
Gu Jinyan and Jiang Tian could only lie to smooth over the matter.
After the phone call, both of them were already sweating profusely.
After taking another shower, I lay down on the bed.
Looking at each other.
Jiang Tian looked at Gu Jinyan and said, "I want to change my Weibo name."
"Um?"
“What will it be changed to?”
Jiang Tian chuckled, picked up the phone, clicked a few buttons, and then handed the phone screen to Gu Jinyan. The two words "Jiang Tian" on it had turned into the three words "Mrs. Gu".
Gu Jinyan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then he grinned. After a pause, he took the phone.
Similarly, after flicking her fingers across the phone screen a few times, she changed her name. Jiang Tian leaned over and saw the same three words on it - "Mrs. Jiang."
Just like the day when the two people got their marriage certificate, one called the other Mrs. Gu and the other called the other Mrs. Jiang.
The two looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan called me here with their hands, fell on the bed, and looked at the ceiling. Neither of them felt sleepy at all.
Jiang Tian suddenly said, "Gu Jinyan."
"Um?"
"It's great to have you in my life."
Gu Jinyan smiled and responded, "Me too. It's great to have you in my life. Fortunately, we didn't miss each other."
The two people slept in each other's arms.
Leaving the Internet in an uproar.
Oh my god, this is too sweet! I want to report these two for constantly showing off their affection on Weibo. It's already giving us all diabetes.
[I suspect my blood sugar is high because I ate too much dog food.]
[Honestly, this couple is so sweet. Oh my god, I've never seen a couple with such a good relationship. Oh my god, is this a relationship that exists in the human world?]
[Emperor Gu dotes on Sister Jiang too much, and Sister Jiang is also a real doting husband.]
[This feeling of pampering each other is really good...]
【……】
While they were discussing this, Jiang Tian and Gu Jinyan fell asleep early over there.
On the other side, when Zhao Xiying saw the blessings flashing on the screen and the two bright red marriage certificates placed on her own bed sheets, she hated them so much that her teeth were about to break.
Thanks to Jiang Tian, she has now fallen from a third-tier female star to the point of being banned. Not only that, in order to make a living, she needs to keep moving among these wealthy businessmen like a peripheral girl, and even sell her body just to give herself a little chance of survival. She wants to make movies, wants to stand in front of these people again, and wants to live under the spotlight again, but she didn't expect that all of it would be ruined by Jiang Tian.
The Gu Jinyan that once belonged to her, the spotlight that once belonged to her, has now been snatched away by a woman named Jiang Tian.
When Zhao Xiying remembered something, she picked up her cell phone and called the unfamiliar number.
Asked: "Are you sure you can really do this to Jiang Tian? Can you really guarantee that what happened between you two can be posted online and ruin her reputation?"
The man's voice soon returned, and he scoffed: "Don't worry, sister. After all, I'm your fan. Don't worry, I won't lie to you. Last time in the square, I was just unlucky and got surrounded. Otherwise, I would have succeeded. Don't worry, this time, I will definitely succeed. We just need an opportunity, a foolproof opportunity."
【What's the meaning? 】
Zhao Xiying didn't quite understand, but that person had indeed made a solemn promise that if he had a chance, he would definitely drag Jiang Tian from the platform into hell.
Seeing that the man spoke so confidently, Zhao Xiying believed it about 50%.
After all, there is no other way to deal with Jiang Tian except to trust this person.
The person seemed to see that she really hated Jiang Tian, so she said that. She simply said, "Since I can say that, then sister, shouldn't you give me some living expenses? At least it will allow me to survive for a while. If I can't survive, where can I go to deal with Jiang Tian for you?"
“…”
Zhao Xiying became inexplicably angry when she heard this person asking her for money.
Of course she knew that this person was asking for too much, but Zhao Xiying was already blinded by jealousy and envy. She would rather spend more money to win Jiang Tian over.
"You said you had some negative information about Jiang Tian. What kind of negative information is it? Can I take a look?"
Zhao Xiying asked tentatively, wanting to take a look before transferring the money.
But the man was very vigilant. He laughed and said, "Sister, I believe you are not the kind of person who does not keep your promises. I also believe that you must understand our rules. I said that I can help you pull Jiang Tian down from the altar, and I will definitely pull her down. If you don't believe me now, it will not be good."
“…”
After he said that, Zhao Xiying didn't know what to say anymore.
After transferring the 100,000 yuan, I felt uneasy.
The man smiled and said to the phone, "Don't worry, sister. I will definitely take care of what you asked me to do. Just wait and see."
After Zhao Xiying's call was hung up, her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly relaxed. Now she had to believe it even if she didn't want to.
