Chapter 38 The Last Time

In late December, the TV series "Sun Moon Jing Shan" was broadcast simultaneously on Shangxing Satellite TV and video platforms. The first episode ushered in a good start to the ratings. The official Weibo released high-definition stills to celebrate, and Aite starred in it.

Xiao Shen sent a congratulatory message early in the morning, asking Jiang Ruo if he would like to log on to Weibo to see for himself. His number of fans and Chaochao follower numbers skyrocketed every second, faster than that of the male and female protagonists.

Jiang Ruo received attention mainly because of a moving picture. In the picture, he has black hair reaching his waist and white clothes fluttering. When the camera zooms in, he turns around leisurely and smiles.

A clip that appeared in the trailer, whose hair was uploaded online by someone, was followed by passers-by and marketing accounts. After half a day, Jiang Ruo was crowned the title of "the first beauty in ancient costumes", and the accompanying copywriting was full of Such descriptions as "beautiful people are picturesque", "beautiful and incomparable", "this is called 'look back, smile and be charming'".

The exaggeration was so exaggerated that Jiang Ruo clicked on the comments and flipped through the comments. The new fans were full of bullshit words, such as "Should I be called husband or wife", "Both children overnight", "I cum all over"...Jiang Ruo is even more ashamed.

Having been baptized by many envious or jealous eyes since childhood, Jiang Ruo felt that she was not the kind of person who was beautiful but didn't know it, but when faced with such a large-scale compliment for the first time, she was always a little apprehensive, lest it was a harbinger of flattery.

Fortunately, in addition to his appearance, his performance in the play is also remarkable.Although he didn't have many appearances in the first two episodes, he was not stage-frightened when he played with several actors from majors in the play. Not only did he not hold back, but even a few scenes were very eye-catching.

Jiang Ruo clicked into Chaohua, and there was a scene of prosperity inside.Familiar old fans all changed their profile pictures to stills of the second male lead in "Sun Moon Jing Shan". Whenever a newcomer registration post appeared, they rushed to point Lu Chaohua to the top, where Jiang Ruo's personal information was placed. There are also participating TV series and some wonderful clips.

Jiang Ruo also learned a new word because of this - Amway on the head.

When meeting Zheng Yiting, Jiang Ruo first asked: "That moving picture——"

"It's really not the handiwork of our marketing department." Zheng Yiting put down the document in her hand and said, "Our publicity is scheduled to come out in the third episode, together with the crew. But the positive effect brought by this animation is good. We have added a Bo, while the heat is still there."

If Jiang Ruo didn't understand the operation of these capitals, he just thought it was a surprise that this matter fermented.

Regarding this, Zheng Yiting said: "There are many such unintentional things. How about saying 'little red depends on supporting big red'? Sometimes it is not because of lack of ability, but because of a lack of wind, so the mentality in this circle To put it mildly, too much utilitarianism can easily have the opposite effect.”

Jiang Ruo asked: "Then am I a utilitarian?"

"It's okay, you have an artist's mentality, and you want to be recognized and praised more than those external things."

"Actually, I still care about things outside of me."

"Then push that literary film as early as possible. The salary is too low. It's better to make two episodes of TV series to earn more."

"Farewell, Sister Zheng, I just thought about it again, I have to grab both fame and money, and I have to be tough with both hands."

Zheng Yiting laughed.

This meeting is mainly for signing the contract.

Jiang Ruo succeeded in the last audition. It is a literary film directed by a foreign Chinese with a relatively marginal subject matter. It is basically impossible to release it in China. Zheng Yiting said that she can use this film to win foreign awards and give her acting career a layer gold.

Jiang Ruo didn't think too much about it, he simply liked that character and wanted to play him well.

Hearing that Seat and Feng didn't help in this audition, Jiang Ruo didn't quite believe it: "You guys are trying to make me happy, aren't you?"

"Is it necessary?" Zheng Yiting said while flipping through the files, "You have met the director, what a person who is obsessed with art, it is absolutely impossible for him to spend money to buy roles in his team."

Jiang Ruoan smiled at the same time: "This is the real artist."

After talking about movies and variety shows.

When asked how Chen Muxin thought about the invitation, Jiang Ruo ran into another difficulty.

"I personally recommend going." Zheng Yiting said, "Firstly, "Sun Moon Jingshan" is on the air, and variety shows are very reasonable as a promotional aid for the drama. Second, Chen Muxin has a good image and is very popular. No hug."

Jiang Ruo understood the truth, but he couldn't let others know that Chen Muxin said that he wanted to chase him, and that Xi Yufeng knew about it.

Jiang Ruo asked, "Is the deadline for the reply over there at the end of this month?"

"Yes."

"Let me think about it for two more days."

Zheng Yiting agreed.

Later, when it came to the kidnapping last time, Zheng Yiting said that she was only cooperating with the police to accept the investigation and was not regarded as a suspect.

Jiang Ruo still feels sorry for this: "Sister Zheng must have scared you."

Zheng Yiting said: "Isn't it? If something happens to you, my dream of becoming a gold agent will be shattered."

Jiang Ruo laughed after hearing this: "Sister Zheng still has several subordinates, and I'm missing a lot."

His words seemed to be a reminder. After signing the contract in hand, Zheng Yiting said seriously: "Although it's too early, I'd like to ask you first, if... I mean if, in the future, you and Mr. Xi will part ways and be with me. Is there any plan to continue the brokerage contract?"

Hearing the word "part ways", Jiang Ruo's heart sank suddenly.

It seemed that the whole world knew that the two of them would not be able to make it to the end, and the knife hanging above his head was falling down inch by inch as time progressed.

After taking some time to calm down, Jiang Ruo said as calmly as possible: "Before answering this question, I want to know whether my relationship with Mr. Xi is a factor affecting the brokerage appointment?"

"At first it was, but now it's not." Zheng Yiting said bluntly, "Your acting career has been paved, and you have already made profits for the company. Even if you continue to spend resources on you in the future, the returns will be much higher than the investment. Not directly involved in the operation, so these are two separate things that do not affect each other."

Jiang Ruo nodded: "In other words, even if we separate from him, we can still cooperate."

"of course can."

"Then why don't you continue?" Jiang Ruo leaned back and exhaled, "It's my luck to meet such an excellent manager as you, Sister Zheng, and I think I've worked hard enough to deserve this luck."

And, life goes on.

At the end of the year, Xi Yufeng was busier than usual. A while ago, Xi Wangchen’s incident had just subsided, but now it’s spinning like a spinning top again, and there have been more parties and parties. When he came back several times, he was drunk and fell down without taking a shower. sleep.

It is a good thing for Jiang Ruo that the communication between the two has decreased.

He wanted to stay by his side quietly and spend the few remaining hours.

The day before Christmas, a courier from the same city delivered the bottle of wine that Jiang Ruo ordered early last month.

The glass bottle is transparent, and the liquid inside is a clear orange color, and it is packed in a custom-made teak box.The winery provided a silk tie, and Jiang Ruo used it to tie a bow on the box, which looked like a holiday gift.

But holiday gifts and the like only exist between intimate relationships like lovers.

Jiang Ruo couldn't help laughing when his fingers touched a line of inconspicuous letters under the bottle.

How naive I was at that time, I thought about it, maybe he had the same feelings as myself.

In the evening of that day, Jiang Ruo received a call from Xi Yufeng, asking him what his plans were for the evening.

Jiang Ruo said: "Eat, sleep...waiting for you to come back."

Xi Yufeng laughed on the other end of the phone: "I heard you received a gift from a sponsor today?"

"Yeah." Jiang Ruozheng was sitting on the sofa, looking at the paper bag beside him, "A suit, casual style."

"Put it on and come out."

"Ok?"

"I can't get away from here." Xi Yufeng said, "I want to have dinner with you."

Jiang Ruo has never been able to refuse Xi Yufeng, especially when he used the word "think", as if expressing his holiday wishes.

Putting on the new clothes, he looked in the mirror again and again to make sure he was dressed properly. When he walked to the living room, Jiang Ruo took a look at the wine on the table, walked over and took it with him.

If you want to come to the kind of Vanity Fair where there are so many toasts, no one will notice whether he is giving away a bottle of wine or a heart.

Arriving at Jinyuan, under the guidance of the waiter, he entered the box, and what came to his face was not noisy, but quiet jazz music. Only then did Jiang Ruo know that this was a small social occasion where not many people participated.

Xi Yufeng sat lazily on the sofa in the back, when he saw someone coming, he raised his hand to beckon.

The people around made room for Jiang Ruo to sit next to Xi Yufeng.

The suit was tailor-made, matching Jiang Ruo's slender waist and long legs, and the color was silver-gray, which complemented the dark gray that Xi and Feng were wearing.

Pretending not to notice the appreciation in Xi Yufeng's eyes, Jiang Ruo handed over the wine in his hand.

Xi Yufeng raised his eyebrows: "For me?"

"Ah."

"Didn't you say that Aunt Fang won't let me drink?"

"Today is the holiday."

Perhaps thinking that celebrating Christmas is a child's habit, Xi Yufeng took the wine, put it on the tea table in front of him without looking carefully, and asked Jiang Ruo: "What do you want?"

Following the wine, Jiang Ruo said, "Let me think about it."

"Think slowly." Xi Yufeng said, leaning into his ear, "Today is beautiful."

The smell mixed with smoke sprayed on the side of the face, it should be slightly cold, but Jiang Ruo felt hot.

When the others retreated, Jiang Ruo said, "I thought about it."

Xi Yufeng gave him a look willing to hear more about it.

"I want to go back early today." Jiang Ruo said with a smile, "You come with me."

But some desires seem simple, but they are so difficult to realize.

Not long after Jiang Ruo sat down, someone came over with a glass of wine to chat.

Coming and going are nothing more than some scene talk, big stars, outstanding talents, promising future and so on.However, the recent popularity of "Sun Moon Jing Shan" has obviously increased Jiang Ruo's popularity. At least among the girls brought by the young masters present, there are many who have watched this show, and two even came to him shyly. sign.

Jiang Ruo had no reason to refuse, so he asked the waiter for a pen to write his name on the facial tissue with the Jinyuan logo on it.

During the period, a girl took advantage of the table to chat with the people next to him, and asked in a low voice, "How did you meet Young Master Xi?"

If it wasn't the first time for Jiang to come to this kind of occasion, he probably knew the status of Xi Yufeng among this group of people.Generally speaking, most of the sons who want to climb to this level need to be recommended by the next level, that is, the guys these girls follow, so that they may have a chance.

Just like the emperor's choice of concubine, Jiang Ruo felt funny, but didn't show it on his face, and only half-truthfully said: "I met in bed."

The two girls looked at each other, as if to say - look, it is so.

Then he asked again: "I heard that you have a bad relationship with Young Master Xi, is it true or not?"

He must have heard a lot of rumors that he was favored and proud, Jiang Ruo asked, "What do you think?"

The girl laughed: "I think you two are fine."

In the end, I still didn’t forget to be close: “I heard that you actors are very busy filming, next time we have time together——”

"No next time." Jiang Ruo said, handing over the signed tissue, his expression as calm as his tone, "This is the last time I come here with him."

Jiang Ruo originally thought that even if he hated such an occasion and hated such a relationship, he could still maintain his dignity to the end with his acting skills.

But he overestimated himself.

After drinking for three rounds, when the waiter knocked on the door and said that Ms. Meng Lan in the box next door wanted to share a table with friends here to spend Christmas Eve together, Jiang Ruo couldn't help clenching her hand.

Xi Yufeng obviously didn't know that Meng Lan was next door, facing the teasing or playful eyes of everyone, he frowned and said, "There are so many people here, it's inconvenient."

In less than 5 minutes, the waiter came back and said, "Ms. Meng Lan said that today is her birthday. Since she can't share the table, she wants to ask Mr. Xi for something."

Xi Yufeng asked what it was, and the waiter replied, "A bottle of wine in a wooden box."

Almost immediately, Jiang Ruo looked at the wine on the coffee table.

In the wooden box, besides the wine, there are also his unrealistic fantasies and the courage to hide.

The word "no" was already on his lips, and he heard Xi Yufeng say in an extremely casual tone, "Then give it to her."

"One more word, wish her a happy birthday, and I will send her a birthday present sometime."
