Chapter 183
She Is From The Countryside
183 Mr. Jiang is so overbearing
â shi yan, this is the gift i brought for you. itâs an autographed collectorâs edition of my â the glory of the world. â i know you donât like to read comics, but it seems that this is the only thing i can bring out. â
song meilian handed over a gift bag, which contained a signed collectorâs edition of âglory of the world.â
to fans of comics, this was definitely a treasure that could only be encountered by luck.
âthank you,â he said.
Shi Yan took it with a faint smile.
I just donât really like to read comics, but I like to collect things. I like your gift very much.
ren kexin also took out a gift bag, â Chang ru and I didnât prepare a gift as luxurious as Meilianâs. This is a handmade bag that we bought for you. Although itâs not particularly expensive, the workmanship is very fine and suits your style.
âThank you, I like it too.â
shi yan took a look and saw that it was an exquisitely embroidered handbag.
she didnât lie when she said she liked it. it was indeed a style she would like.
âI didnât expect you to prepare a gift. I didnât even prepare a return gift. Iâm waiting for Yingluo.â
she was about to say that she would make it up to them when they got back, but jiang che interrupted her, â âIâll help you prepare a gift in return.â
The three of them quickly said no.
they took their seats one by one.
Ren Kexin laughed. weâre already very happy to be able to come to the Jade Restaurant for a meal. Itâs hard to make a reservation here, and our gifts arenât worth much. In fact, weâre the ones who got the better end of the deal.
âJiang Changxi, the fifth Lord of the Jiang family doesnât need to prepare gifts for us.â
song meilian had wanted to call him mr. jiang, but she suddenly remembered that shi yan usually called him that. she recalled how the manager who had led the way had addressed jiang che, so she directly called him fifth master jiang.
Seeing that Shi Yan was looking at her, song Meilian explained with a smile,âwhen we were outside the door just now, we heard the staff who led the way call your husband master five.â
jiang che was very pleased when shi yanâs friends used the words â this one in your house â to describe him.
âI have five in my family, just call me whatever you want.â He smiled. Itâs not troublesome to return a gift, itâs just a matter of giving an order, thereâs no need to be polite.â
The dishes were served very quickly. As an experienced foodie, Chang ru could tell at a glance how excellent the dishes of Jade Restaurant were. She felt that her saliva was about to flow out before she even started eating.
â no wonder itâs so difficult to reserve a seat at the jade eatery. iâd be willing to queue for a year and a half to eat such excellent dishes! â
ren kexin kicked her, telling her to pay attention to her image and not embarrass shi yan.
however, the man sitting beside shi yan only had shi yan in his eyes and didnât look at anyone else.â......â
Forget it, he might not care if it was embarrassing or not.
Letâs eat.
with this in mind, ren kexin felt more at ease, and her nerves were not as tense as before.
Shi Yan ate quietly, and Jiang che ate quietly as well. However, if they didnât say anything at this time, the atmosphere would be awkward.
âHow was the audition today?â Shi Yan took the initiative to ask song Meilian.
âOther than the three more distinctive characters that havenât been selected yet, the rest are almost done.â After a pause, song Meilian suddenly asked,âthe director asked me to be the screenwriterâs consultant. Shi Yan, what do you think?â
shi yan was a little surprised that she would actually ask for her opinion.
however, since song meilian had already asked, she couldnât just ignore her.
âWhat do you think?â
I didnât have any ideas before, but after participating in the casting today, I have some ideas.
âFrom the casting to the scriptwriter to the filming of the entire drama, all of these may affect the quality of the drama. Take the casting as an example. If todayâs casting was randomly chosen and a group of people with bad acting skills were chosen, then no matter how good the script is, it would be useless.â
âItâs the same for the screenwriter. If the adaptation isnât done well, it will destroy the original work. i donât want my work to be ruined. iâm just a screenwriterâs consultant, so i donât have to be involved in the whole process. it wonât take much time, and i think iâm up to the task.â
âthen weâll do as you say,â Shi Yan said with a smile.
âmeilian, i think itâs necessary for you to be a screenwriter advisor. you donât know how many adapted movies and tv shows these days are completely destroying the original work.â ren kexin couldnât help but ridicule.
chang ru chimed in,âdidnât you say that your comic would be finished next week? You also said that you plan to rest for two months to learn the relevant knowledge before starting a new work, so you can come and be a screenwriterâs consultant during this time. Just take it as finding something to do in your spare time to relax yourself.â
âThen Iâll agree to it?â
âjust agree, just agree.â
ren kexin and chang ru said in unison.
shi yan also smiled and nodded.
âIf I encounter more professional historical questions, can I ask you? Especially Shi Yan, youâve read a lot of books. Can I consult you when I encounter any problems?â
âof course.â
shi yan smiled. â but you probably donât need to ask me. have you forgotten that youâre the top student in our academy? â
âthatâs right, meilian, youâre the top student in our class, have you forgotten? However, if you have any problems, you can bring it up for discussion. Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang.â
after ren kexin finished speaking, chang ru added, â if we can help you, you donât have to be so polite. just say the word. â Iâve been eating in the dormitory every day and occasionally Iâll do a food livestream in the dormitory. You guys didnât say anything, so Iâve always wanted to find a chance to express my gratitude.â
âThatâs because you didnât eat anything too flavorful at your accommodation. Otherwise, youâll see if weâll say anything to you.â Ren Kexin glanced at her.
He turned to Shi Yan. Speaking of which, Shi Yan, Iâve had a lot of questions since noon. Is my idol, qu Bocheng, really your brother? â
yes, his grandfather and my grandfather are brothers. Our family is not separated.
if the family wasnât even separated from their ancestors, it must be a big family.
From the brief exchange between Shi Yan and qu Bocheng today, it was not difficult to deduce that Shi Yan had run away from home and had not contacted qu Bocheng for a long time.
Although they were curious, they knew that this was Shi Yanâs private matter and would not ask too much.
âthen your familyâs genes are really amazing.â chang ru said.
Ren Kexin looked at Shi Yan, who was sitting there as beautiful as a painting. She couldnât help but ask, â âShi Yan, are you really not going to enter the entertainment industry? i think if you enter the entertainment industry, youâll definitely be a hit.â
jiang che, who had been eating quietly and occasionally putting food into shi yanâs bowl, did not speak or react. when he heard this, his hand holding the chopsticks paused.
He looked at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan was keenly aware of his gaze. She looked at him and smiled helplessly. â what are you thinking? i donât care about fame, profits, or money. how can i enter the entertainment industry? â
âI was just thinking, if you really like it, should I start a company to support you?â
âMr. Jiang, truth?â Shi Yan smiled and looked at him.
being stared at by her like this, jiang che found it hard to go against his heart. he said honestly, â âitâs fake.â
He gently curled his lips, smiled gently, and said in a warm voice, â âMiss Shi, you probably donât know your own charm. I donât want to be jealous every day. if you really enter the entertainment industry, iâm afraid that i wonât be able to hold back my jealousy and go around killing people. youâd better not go and harm people.â
the three onlookers were speechless.
Did they eat dog food?
The two of them were clearly not the least bit sticky, and they were even getting along with each other indifferently, gently, and politely, but why did they feel that it was sweet?
also, setting up a company and then sealing people off everywhere, what kind of domineering ceoâs speech is this?
Shi Yanâs boyfriend was really a Big Shot?
however, with his temperament, it was impossible for him to not have some status.
teacher Jiang, you are so overbearing. Shi Yan said with a smile.
there was no blushing or rapid heartbeat. shi yan was as calm as ever.
shi yan was probably the only one who could say such words with such a calm expression.
The three of them felt like they had just eaten another mouthful of dog food and silently lowered their presence.
