Chapter 85 Girlfriend?
Although Liu's camera failed to capture the person on the other side of the arch, one can guess something from Jiang Wu's expression.
"Did you meet someone you know?"
"Um."
"Why don't you say hello?" asked Da Liu.
Jiang Wu replied calmly, "Because he had promised me to come visit the day before yesterday, but he said he had something urgent to do and couldn't come, and then I just saw him standing with a woman."
Da Liu: “…”
The two of them were extremely silent on the way to the cafeteria.
There weren't many people in the Taoist temple, but there were many windows in the cafeteria. Jiang Wu saw the guests of "Exploration" surrounded by several cameras at a glance, while Yang Chen and other staff members were sitting at a table in the back eating.
Jiang Wu nodded to them, then prepared the food and walked over there.
Several people hadn't eaten for almost a day since last night and were very hungry. However, thanks to the camera, they ate fairly politely. Only Ji Ruoxuan almost buried his face in the bowl.
Bi Yan reminded, "Didn't you say you are an idol and you have to pay attention to your image all the time?"
"I feel like I'm starving to death. I'll be an idol after I'm full." Ji Ruoxuan said with a touching look on his face while holding the bowl. "And the food here actually has meat. It's so touching."
Qiao Qiao also laughed and said, "Yeah, I thought I was going to eat vegetarian food at first, but I didn't expect it to be a combination of meat and vegetables, just like the cafeteria in my university."
Cheng Ye spoke up at the right time, "In addition to the Three Pure Ones, the main hall here also worships the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Leisheng Puhua Tianzun. They should belong to the Zhengyi sect, which does not eat vegetarian food."
"What does this Nine Heavens Something Heavenly Lord do? Is he very powerful?" Ji Ruoxuan asked curiously.
Others were equally curious. Their only knowledge of Taoist gods came from the novel Journey to the West. At best, they only knew of Laozi, and were unfamiliar with the name.
"Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun is the incarnation of the Southern Pole Chang Sheng Da Di Emperor in folk legends. He is also the highest god in the Thunder Department. You can understand him as a deity who is specifically in charge of thunder."
"Is it the Thunder God from Journey to the West?"
"No, Lei Gong is considered one of his subordinates."
Qiao Qiao couldn't help but sigh, "It sounds so amazing."
Ji Ruoxuan laughed and said, "My brother Jiang is also very powerful. Last night, he threw the dagger and the mountain ghost retreated. How cool!"
"Come on, Taoist priests in the Xuanmen sect throw spells, not daggers." Teng Hongfei asked Cheng Ye in a flattering manner, "Right, Professor Cheng?"
For Cheng Ye, who is in the academic circle, creating a persona is no different from falsifying information. However, the academic circle is most averse to falsification. In order to make money, he can only turn a blind eye. In any case, he will not be an accomplice to the evil.
When Cheng Ye heard Teng Hongfei asking for his opinion, he said "hmm" indifferently and said nothing more, obviously not interested in it.
Teng Hongfei was a little embarrassed. He was a new guest this episode and didn't know Professor Cheng very well. But he knew that he could improve the audience's favorability by actively praising him and expressing his respect for senior scholars. However, he didn't expect the other party to react so coldly.
Ji Ruoxuan and Qiao Qiao also realized that Professor Cheng didn't really want to deal with them, so they tactfully changed the subject and continued talking about what happened in school in the past.
Jiang Wu had never been to school, so there was nothing to talk about, so he just ate and listened. Suddenly, the conversations of several people around him stopped, and then Ji Ruoxuan said without disguising anything -
"Fuck, so handsome!"
Jiang Wu looked up subconsciously and saw Han Zhong being led into the cafeteria by Luo Yun. The heroic woman with shoulder-length hair was also following behind him and was talking to Luo Yun.
Han Zhong also saw Jiang Wu and his group surrounded by several cameras at a glance. He was immediately delighted and strode over, "Jiang——"
"President Han?"
Cheng Ye looked at the newcomer with surprise, "Why are you here?"
Han Zhong glanced at Jiang Wu behind him, and greeted Cheng Ye out of courtesy, "I came here to pay a visit to the master."
"That's a coincidence, I'm here to record a show!"
After the last meeting, Cheng Ye admired this young man very much. He didn't expect to meet him at Qingyang Temple today. It was really a pleasant surprise. He quickly invited him to sit down and have dinner together.
Han Zhong wanted to talk to Jiang Wu alone, but he also saw the cameras and staff around him. It was obvious that the program was still being recorded, so he turned to look at Qin Yuyan, "Mr. Qin, this is Professor Cheng Yecheng from Donglin University."
Qin Yuyan smiled and extended her hand, "Hello, Professor Cheng, I am Qin Yuyan."
"Fuck, Qin Yuyan!" Ji Ruoxuan shouted excitedly in a low voice, "The eldest daughter of the Linhai Qin family, the president of the Fanjin Group, is said to have just taken over as the president of the Linhai Chamber of Commerce. I can actually see her here!"
Qiao Qiao and others were also surprised. The heir of the Linhai Qin family was a real upper class!
"Who's that next to her?" Qiao Qiao's cheeks flushed with excitement. "So handsome, like a male model, about 1.9 meters tall, right?"
Jiang Wu silently replied in his heart, 1.88 meters.
Bi Yan said thoughtfully, "Professor Cheng calls him President Han, the president of Linhai with the surname Han, and he is with Qin Yuyan——"
Ji Ruoxuan and Teng Hongfei widened their eyes and said in unison, "Han Zhong!"
Qiao Qiao asked hurriedly, "Who is Han Zhong?"
"He is the heir of the Han family, one of the four major surnames in Linhai, and you don't even know this!"
Qiao Qiao immediately lost interest. "I was thinking of asking for WeChat, but if it's Han's level, I'd better give up."
"How could Professor Cheng, an academic, know Han Zhong?"
"I don't know either." Bi Yan shook his head.
Over there, Yang Chen took into consideration the identities of the two distinguished guests and very sensibly removed all the cameras. Cheng Ye took the opportunity to introduce Bi Yan and others to Han Zhong and Qin Yuyan.
Ji Ruoxuan stood up in a hurry, "Hello, President Han and President Qin, I am Ji Ruoxuan from Galaxy Entertainment!"
Even when they were giving their last speech, they sounded a little nervous. Teng Hongfei and Qiao Qiao's voices were trembling slightly, and it was unclear whether they were excited or nervous.
In the end, Jiang Wu was the only one left sitting there, looking very awkward. It was not until Ji Ruoxuan quietly pulled his clothes that he slowly raised his head.
He glanced at Qin Yuyan first, then looked at Han Zhong and said lightly, "What a coincidence."
Several people were startled. Cheng Ye asked in astonishment, "Mr. Han knows Jiang Wu?"
Han Zhong glanced at Jiang Wu subconsciously, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, he replied, "Yeah, I know him."
For a moment, everyone looked at Jiang Wu differently. No one had expected that Jiang Wu actually knew such an important person. No one had ever heard him mention him and he was quite low-key.
Qin Yuyan glanced at Jiang Wu with a smile and asked Han Zhong, "I didn't expect you know people in the entertainment industry."
"I met him at a charity gala."
It’s just that they didn’t meet at the party. Instead, they met in his room. Someone came up to him and pushed him down on the bed and stripped him, Han Zhong thought absentmindedly.
Qin Yuyan did not ask any more questions and reached out to pull him to sit down, but Han Zhong subconsciously avoided him and pointed to the empty seat to Jiang Wu's left, "I can sit there."
No one thought much about it, because the other person was Professor Cheng, so everyone just thought he wanted to continue chatting with Professor Cheng.
Cheng Ye obviously thought the same. He looked at Qin Yuyan and suddenly remembered that the last time he met Han Zhong, he said someone in his family was also interested in folk culture. He smiled and said, "Last time, Mr. Han also said that he would bring his girlfriend to discuss folk culture. I didn't expect to meet him today."
Jiang Wu suddenly stopped eating and looked up at the two men.
So these two have been together for a long time?
Han Zhong was startled when he heard this, and subconsciously glanced at Jiang Wu, who was indeed staring at him. He hurriedly explained, "She's not my girlfriend. Mr. Qin and I are just partners."
Not even a friend!
