Tang Ruochu did not continue to argue with Gu Ruoruo as Ann had arrived. Tang Ruochu had seen Ann's early interviews and her past works. She was indeed a very talented director. More importantly, she was a lady and was rather young too, in her early thirties.Since she had already greeted Ann before coming, Tang Ruochu walked over directly and held her hand out as she said with a smile, "Hello, I'm Tang Ruochu from Times Entertainment." Ann was taken aback for a moment but quickly recovered as she shook Tang Ruochu’s hand and smiled back. "Hello, I'm Ann." That was considered a greeting done, and because they had to shoot an advertisement, Tang Ruochu and Xiao Xu sat aside first. They quietly watched Ann as she directed the staff on the set. "Whoa, how is she so cool?" Xiao Xu gasped. Xiao Xu had done his homework before the interview with Ann and seen her previous photos. With her long fluttering hair, she had an outstanding aura that captivated everyone who looked at her
Tang Ruochu smiled and shook her head. "It's all right. I’ve had the opportunity to observe the way you work, and it has been very helpful for the interview." As she said that, she raised the camera in her hand. "I've taken a few shots of you at work. Do you mind if I use them for the interview write-up?" "No, go ahead." Ann smiled and shook her head. Gu Ruoruo looked up to let the makeup artist remove her makeup, but she kept peeking at Tang Ruochu, who was talking with Director Ann, out of the corner of her eyes. Seeing Ann and Tang Ruochu leave the studio in a jovial mood, she suddenly lowered her head, startling the makeup artist. "Sis Ruoruo..." Gu Ruoruo glanced at the startled makeup artist and then looked in the direction Tang Ruochu and the others had left. However, their silhouettes were no longer in sight, and she could not help but frown. ... Ann was just as the rumors had described. She had a gentle and modest personality without any pretensions, which made i
After dinner with Ann, they went their separate ways. Tang Ruochu sent Xiao Xu home before she drove to Imperial Vista. Xiaoxiao and Anyi were waiting for her there. "Sorry, I'm late," Tang Ruochu said loudly as she pushed the room door open. Seeing that she had arrived, Ying Xiaoxiao immediately stood up to welcome her as she grabbed the former by the shoulder. "Chuchu, how dare you stand us up. Your fine is three pints!" As she spoke, she shoved the glass in her hand to Tang Ruochu. Tang Ruochu glanced at the three glasses and raised her eyebrows in surprise. All of them were filled to the brim. "You girls don't have to be so hard on me, you know?" Tang Ruochu smiled as she looked at Ying Xiaoxiao and Song Anyi. "Chuchu, I'll drink with you." Song Anyi raised her glass before she knocked back the entire glass. Watching the scene, Tang Ruochu frowned a little and turned to ask Ying Xiaoxiao, "What's wrong with Anyi?" The reason she asked was that Anyi rarely drank u
Yang Corporation had been formally acquired by Mofei because he intended to use it as a domestic base to move his overseas business back. Anyi had also returned all of the shares Mofei gave her, and while Anyi was no longer the chairwoman of the corporation, getting Uncle Song as well as Auntie Song back to work was an easy matter. "They have no plans for the time being. They said they’ve never had a proper respite due to work and want to take this opportunity to have some good rest." Hearing Anyi’s words, Tang Ruochu suggested, "You could get Uncle and Auntie to travel around, away from the nonsense here. Once the matter between you and Mofei is resolved, you can bring them back." Ying Xiaoxiao nodded. "I think Chuchu's suggestion is great." "My parents might not agree to go abroad." Song Anyi understood her parents the best, and they would certainly refuse to go to a country with a foreign language, foreign customs, and food. "Then, persuade them until they agree to it. If
The next day, Tang Ruochu woke up with a blistering headache. As she struggled to get up, she rubbed her ringing head and saw a glass of water on the bedside table from the corner of her eyes. She turned her head and saw a note under the glass. On the note was Shijin's robust handwriting. “Drink the honey water, it'll help with the hangover.” She raised her eyebrows and picked up the glass of honey water, her lips overflowing with a joyous smile. Her Shijin was always considerate. If there came a time when he would no longer be around, how would she live? As she smiled and finished the honey water, she lifted her quilt and got out of bed. She was not entirely smashed the night before and still remembered the moment she left Imperial Vista. Shengyao took care of Xiaoxiao while they sent Anyi home. After Ruochu washed up and changed into her casual wear, she walked out of the room and approached the door of the guestroom. As she raised her hand to knock the door, she said,
She was partying hard with them last night. How did she end up sick? Plus, the fever came so suddenly that it scared her. After the jab, Song Anyi slept much more peacefully as her face was no longer in a grimace and she was not mumbling anymore. When Tang Ruochu touched Anyi's forehead, she noticed that it was no longer as hot as before.Seeing Anyi's pale lips, she pondered for a moment before walking out of the room. ... Shen Mofei stood before the window and looked at the rather barren courtyard in the winter, yet his thoughts were not visible from his eyes.The door was gently pushed open, and Xu Wenjing walked in. She looked at the straight and tall figure standing by the window with undisguised love in her eyes. She bit her lip and walked over. "Mofei, Grandpa Shen’s calling for you." She stopped beside him and said softly. Shen Mofei frowned almost imperceptibly, then turned and left without even looking at her. His total disregard for Xu Wenjing hurt her very m
"Unfair?" Old Master Shen looked at him quizzically. "How so?" Shen Mofei demurred for a moment before he slowly spoke. "I don't love her, and I simply cannot give her the happiness she seeks." Hearing that, Old Master Shen laughed. "Feelings can be nurtured. Since you can love Ms. Song, you can also love Wenjing." "Impossible." Shen Mofei sounded determined. "I only love Anyi, and she's the only person I want to marry in this life." The smile on Old Master Shen's lips slowly faded away as his expression grew serious, and his eyes turned sharp. He then asked with a rumbling voice, "Mofei, will you only be satisfied when you’ve angered me to death?" Shen Mofei's lips twitched imperceptibly. "Grandpa, I didn’t mean to anger you, I'm just expressing my stand on the matter." "But your stand is clearly meant to piss me off." Old Master Shen's voice was cold. "Since you’ve made your stand, I shall as well. As long as I am alive, I will never allow that woman to take a single step
Seeing her pleading look, Old Master Shen sighed helplessly. "Okay, go on then." "Thank you, Grandpa." Xu Wenjing smiled and shifted her gaze to Shen Mofei's immaculate face without any concealment of the love in her eyes. A bitter smile spread across her lips. "Mofei, I know you don't love me, and you’ll probably never fall in love with me, so I don't want to force you to marry me. Such a marriage will not only cause suffering to you but also me, Grandpa, and the rest of the Shen Family. I'm not an official member of the Shen household, and at most, I’m just a girl whom Grandpa took in because my own grandfather saved his life. Actually, the fact that Grandpa Shen raised me is already payment enough for the debt of kindness he owed my grandfather, perhaps even more." Once she finished speaking, Xu Wenjing glanced at Old Master Shen as the corner of her eyes became wet with tears. Pursing her lips, she continued with a smile, "This way, I’m the one who owes the Shen Family a debt o
