contract marriage

"Jiang Shan is Zhou Shi'an's cousin?" The sharp blade cut the chicken breast into two evenly-thick slices. The cut chicken breast was wrapped in oil paper and placed on the chopping board and pressed to twice its size with a rolling pin. Tang Rui moved Skillfully put the kneaded and pressed chicken breast into the flour bowl, "I haven't heard you mention it before."

Sherland doesn't know if every chef's cooking is so pleasing to the eye, but his biggest hobby recently is watching Tang Rui cook. He watched Tang Rui wrap his supper tonight with flour and then put it in egg liquid one by one He and Breadcrumbs said, "He went abroad to study after graduating from high school. He didn't meet many times, and the interaction was not too much. After all, he played with a few of us when we were young, and the friendship is still there."

But that's it.

"Elegant, noble, generous, beautiful, and of good family background." The words of praise were read dryly and boringly by Sherland. Sitting on the marble countertop of the sink, he recalled, "Jiangshan has been With 1 fans, Li Dongming is his number one fan, the one who thinks in his heart and dare not chase after him."

"White Moonlight." Tang Rui added, rubbed the bread crumbs into the chicken breast, put it in the oil pan for two and a half minutes and then flipped to the other side. The hot oil made a sizzling sound, and the kitchen was full of tempting scent.

"Yes, Bai Yueguang, male god." Shelande secretly looked at Tang Rui's expression. The latter put the fried chicken chops on the plate, spread a spoonful of tomato sauce, and put a slice of mozzarella cheese on it. Tang Rui Rui put the white porcelain plate into the built-in oven in the kitchen, turned around and began to process the pasta.

Tang Rui still chatted in a casual tone, and most of his attention was given to the cooking in his hand: "You don't seem to like him very much."

Jiang Shan's yacht stopped at Sherland's pier. There were actually a lot of vacant rooms here, but Jiang Shan only stayed for a while before leaving. Sherland's indifferent attitude was not obvious, but smart enough to notice that the young owner did not Dislikes uninvited guests staying at home.

"Not everyone likes a heartthrob." Sherland doesn't like Jiang Shan, whether it's the previous life or the rebirth, he has no interest at all in Jiang Shan, a seemingly perfect and beautiful man.

The common problem of heartthrobs is the habit of being cared for by the people around them, the habit of being the focus of everyone, the habit of being loved but being stingy about loving.

However, in about 10 minutes, a late-night snack of cheese chicken chops with pasta was placed in front of Sherland. Tang Rui did not have the habit of eating late-night snacks. Irregular eating is not good, and I seldom eat at night in recent years.

Lying on the dining table with arms crossed, Tang Rui said hesitantly while watching Sherland eating supper: "Don't you think he and I..."

"It doesn't look like that at all." Sherland raised her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth pressed down, her face was full of disgust, she bowed her head and ate a mouthful of pasta, and quickly put on a satisfied expression.

"That's just what you think." Sherland ate too fast, and the dry cheese was wiped to the corner of her mouth. Tang Rui smiled and took out a piece of paper, got up and leaned over to wipe it for Sherland, "Like a child, slow down .”

When Tang Rui saw Jiang Shan, he realized that the two of them were actually a little similar in appearance, the same tall and straight, the same fair complexion, and similar gentleness and generosity. The difference may be that Jiang Shan's facial features are more beautiful and delicate, Tang Rui was of the handsome type.

"Maybe I'm more down-to-earth, so Li Dongming didn't dare to confess to Jiangshan, but he was very enthusiastic about me as a senior." Tang Rui recalled a few things when Li Dongming chased him in college, and he couldn't help but sigh. I completely let go of the part with Li Dongming, but I never thought that he would be someone else's stand-in.

It is impossible to say that there is no diaphragm at all.

Stuffing a piece of chicken chop into his mouth and chewing it, Sherland was very conflicted. On the one hand, he was a little curious about how Li Dongming caught up with Tang Rui in the first place, and on the other hand, he especially rejected the word "Li Dongming".

The more Tang Rui thought about it, the more puzzled he became: "Since Jiangshan is Li Dongming's white moonlight, why didn't you think of a fake marriage with Jiangshan?"

Tang Rui's question reminded Xie Lande that he had no interest in other people's love life. When Li Dongna came to him, he agreed casually. He didn't even think about whether Li Dongming still loved Jiangshan. He has the memory of his previous life. In his previous life, he clearly remembered that Jiang Shan married a wealthy daughter in the end, so he subconsciously didn't associate Jiang Shan with Li Dongming.

Seeing that Sherland was deep in thought and did not speak, Tang Rui leaned back, folded his hands on his chest with a clear look: "I understand."

"what?"

"Jiangshan's family background is so familiar with you guys, and the difficulty factor of fake marriage is relatively high. A little person like me with no background is easier to control." Tang Rui shook his head and sighed again, "You rich people really know how to play."

All the seats were fully booked on the opening day of the restaurant, in fact all the tables were booked by guests three days before the opening.

The restaurant of Tang Rui and Ralph is quite well-known in London. As early as when Tang Rui decided to open a restaurant in Haishi, the news had spread among the old customers' circle of friends. After Wang An'an's food show, as Tang Rui's fame increased, the restaurant's popularity also increased.

What Tang Rui didn't expect was that their planning branch in the same building had just opened today and received a lot of orders, a considerable part of which came from the sea, municipal and business circles.

Tang Rui is not a fool, of course he knows what the biggest reason is.Throughout the night, Sherland stood beside him like a finely crafted and gorgeous sculpture, a natural living signboard, and a spokesperson with strong appeal.

"Your husband is really amazing." Ralph held a glass of champagne in his hand, and he ran to Tang Rui's side at some point, and the eyes of both of them followed a dazzling young man who arrived two days ago In Haishi, Tang Rui and Sherland picked up the plane together that day.

Following Sherland's gaze was filled with joy and pride, and Tang Rui was full of energy for a moment. Maybe some people chose their new company to sell Sherland's face, and he would prove that their choice was not wrong.

It's just that good things never come in pairs in this world, and Tang Rui is obviously not a God's darling born with a halo of luck like Sherland.

The first big order received by the company after its opening was from a well-known listed technology company, which had paid a deposit in advance on the day the company opened.Tang Rui and the others waited for two days before receiving a call from the other party. The person in charge of the listed company would come to their studio in person to discuss with Tang Rui himself the requirements for the listed company's annual meeting.

This is the first big order received by the planning company after its opening. The event cost exceeded 1000 million. Tang Rui took it seriously, but when he and Ralph went to the door to greet the person in charge of the technology company, they saw Li Dongming from When getting out of the Bentley, Tang Rui was still stunned for a second.

"Damn it, why does he still have the face to appear in front of you?" Ralph swore, if Tang Rui hadn't quietly pulled him just now, he would have rushed over and punched Li Dongming in the face, "Or Just kick him out!"

"This is our first business, and besides, he's well-known in Haishi." The first business drove the customers out, and if it got out, their company would definitely be affected badly, Tang Rui felt that Ralph was more excited than himself, he said with a smile, "Trust me, I can solve it."

Tang Rui could fully expect the hot scene of Ralph and Li Dongming discussing business. It was actually not that difficult to sit in front of Li Dongming again. When he really let go, he really didn't feel anything.

No love, no hate, no care anymore.

Apart from Tang Rui and Li Dongming, there are other people in the office. It is no different from ordinary cooperation. Talk about what should be discussed and do what should be done. After an hour, the main issues such as the theme, process and cost of the event will be preliminarily determined. Tang Rui They will give the customer several preliminary plans after three days.

The staff from both sides left the meeting room one after another. Li Dongming sat in his original position without moving. He seldom spoke since he came in, and his occasional speeches were insignificant. Most of the time he was looking at a man in the meeting room.

"You are always so dedicated and serious when you work. I still remember that when I first met you, I went to the restaurant where you worked to secretly watch your work..." Li Dongming looked at Tang Rui with a pure smile. Tang Ruila went back to the year they spent together.

"I'll help you with the event." Tang Rui interrupted Li Dongming's memories with a businesslike tone. He actually didn't quite understand why Li Dongming came to him again, but that's fine, he thought, after all, Li Dongming He is Sherland's friend, after all, he will live in Haishi for a long time to come.

It's good to take this opportunity to say something.

Tang Rui adjusted his sitting posture. The one-hour meeting made him want to stand up and walk around. There must always be someone who speaks first. He took the initiative to make peace: "Let him pass the past. We all have a new life. You are Sherland's friend, and mine."

"But I can't forget. I've tried to forget all these years, but I can't, I can't..." Li Dongming didn't want to answer Tang Rui's words, his expression was serious and sad, and there were emotions in his eyes that Tang Rui couldn't understand ,"sorry."

The meeting room was so quiet that only the sound of breathing remained.

"I'm not as smart as Sherland, and I don't have enlightened parents who support all his decisions like him." A wry smile flashed in his eyes, and Li Dongming sighed, "You know? I'm actually jealous of him. I've been jealous since I was a child. He can do whatever he wants, he can always get everything I desire easily."

Tang Rui frowned lightly in disapproval, shook his head and said, "Shelande is indeed smart and has a good family, but he is not the only lucky person in this world who is smart and has good parents. He can achieve what he is today because of He knows exactly what he wants and is willing to work hard for it. Blaming his failures on other people's luck is just a lame excuse to avoid reality."

Due to family pressure and not daring to challenge the authority, Li Dongming fled like an ostrich year after year, but in the end he got nothing, and the problem remained unresolved.

Tang Ruiquan came from nothing to where he is today by his own hard work, but Li Dongming, who started life much higher than him, complained in front of him, which made him feel a burst of speechless anger.

Li Dongming looked up at Tang Rui deeply, and said with a smile: "It's not too late to understand this truth, senior, don't you think so?"
