Chapter 76: 76

Four years later

City A

The city was full of traffic, everything going on in an orderly manner. The sunlight in the early summer is very good and when it fell through the glass, the whole room was lit up. There was a person buried in the large bed. The sun falling from the glass window shone on the fair and reflective skin of the person who was holding a mobile phone, his eyes were closed, and he would murmur a few times from time to time.

"Jian Shiwu!"

A piercing voice rang out from the other end of the line, jolting the sleeper awake.

Jian Shiwu was shaken and almost fell out of bed: "Hey..."

He rubbed his eyes and resignedly continued to listen to the sage advice from the other end of the phone, which was from none other than his childhood best friend and current manager, Lui Heng.

Lui Heng was furious, "Are you listening to what I'm saying?" "You have to give him face this time."

Jian Shiwu rubbed his head, "It's really not that I didn't give him face yesterday, I swear I was really polite to that Director Xu."

"You were polite?!"

Lui Heng’s fire almost burned through the phone, "Your politeness was beating someone up in the lounge and in the end almost breaking the organizer’s glass door? You know what, we almost got kicked."

Jian Shiwu admitted his mistake: "I shouldn't have hit anyone, but he was definitely at fault too."

Lui Heng waited to hear his quibbles.

Then, sure enough, he heard Jian Shiwu say, “"Who asked him to move his hands and feet? And his mouth is not clean. I suspect that he didn't brush his teeth at all yesterday."

Lui Heng sighed and was not surprised, in fact, his Jian Shiwu looks really doesn't belong to the kind of delicate and easy to bully, but rather he looks sunny and fit, but for some reason, he has encountered unspoken rules countlessly since entering the entertainment industry.

Lui Heng didn’t know whether to cry od laugh and he said, "My Shiwu, ah, you can hit him, but why did you pick the face to hit, you know, after that director Xu came out of the room with two big slap red marks on his face, he directly become the laughing stock of the whole floor, it can be said to be a disgrace, I think he now hates you to the bone."

Jian Shiwu muttered softly, "It's not like he didn’t deserved it."

......

After saying this, both ends of the phone fell into silence.

Then the silence was broken by muffled laughter that rang out at the same time, and the two people who had just been talking seriously about the matter laughed out joyfully at the same time, probably because they both thought of that pig-headed look of director Xu, and couldn't hold back.

Finally, Lui Heng whispered, "There's a dinner party tonight, it's a good resource, come over.”

Jian Shiwu said, "Okay."

He had passed the age where he can be self-willed. After entering the society, he begun to understand how to restrain his corners and sharp edges. He used to be impulsive because he always had a shield behind him that would put up with his childishness but after joining some real work, he understood the truth that he had to do everything on his own.

…..

There were a few scattered fans outside when they came out of the company building in the evening.

Lui Heng: "Don't look, they are all squatting for that new traffic star Nie Jinfeng, he's been gaining momentum lately, fiercely getting his hands on good resources, it's just different from person to person, ah."

Jian Shiwu leaned against the car window and smiled, "How can people be the same as each other, we all look different, ah."

"Ahem!"

Using the car headlights, Lui Heng used the chance to re-look at Jian Shiwu’s face, to be honest, this face could indeed a seductive and criminal face. Jian Shiwu inherited his mother's flowery looks, those big round eyes were watery, and as an adult he looked like he had grown even more good looking, his skin was fair and delicate even to the point where applying makeup seemed superfluous.

It happens that such a delicate appearance does not make him look feminine. The reason for that is Jian Shiwu is so fierce and upright. His unwarranted aura of righteousness about him coupled with his years of fitness workouts, made his extremely beautiful features and masculine aura give him a unique charm.

Lui Heng said, "What’s the use of being more handsome than him, Nie Jinfeng found a gold master, a young master of a real estate company, the one who was blacklisted by you last time when he wanted to keep you. Who knew that he would be picked up by Nie Jinfeng. , he is very proud now, and secretly cut off our two endorsements two days ago."

Jian Shiwu had little reaction and nodded gently.

"No way, that's the reaction?"

Jian Shiwu was puzzled, his big round eyes looking at him, "Or what?"

Lui Heng huffed and pinched his waist, "Let’s not talk about looks, just rely on your business ability, you can sing and dance, how can he ride on over your head if he didn’t have a gold master!"

Jian Shiwu said with a smirk, "It's also a talent to get a gold master."

"Let's see him get carried away!" Lui Heng said, "I'm sure you'll find a more powerful golden master than that young master Wang!"

"......"

Well, thanks for the encouragement.

Jian Shiwu handed him a packet of chocolates, “More important than the golden master thing is that I met the landlord this afternoon and he said he was pressing you to pay the rent."

Lui Heng choked, his anger all but gone, and bristled, "Got it."

The two young lords in the back of the nanny's car were each holding a chocolate bar in their misery, even though they were both, by definition, young lords from wealthy families, they were still in a difficult position. Three years ago, Lui Heng’s stepmother gave birth to a boy. This woman who used to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger finally showed her true colors when she had a child as a backer.

With the arrival of the child, a series of unequal treatments against Lui Heng naturally followed. A year ago, when Old Zhang decided to give 10% of his shares to the young son, who was less than three years old as a gift, Lui Heng decided to run out and start his own business he took a gamble, and set out to prove himself.

"We must sign this resource at tonight's dinner."

Lui Heng bit into a chocolate bar to cover the hatred under his eyes, "It’s all or nothing, if you succeed well and good or else you’ll have to find a gold master. Sign this resource, or else we're going to drink the northwest wind!"

After saying this, he was patted on the shoulder.

Jian’s voice was light, but the gesture was gentle: "Once again, it’s okay."

Lui Heng looked at him in surprise.

Jian Shiwu hooked his lips and smiled: "if it’s a big deal, we'll just go under the flyover and maake a film."

......

The car was silent for a few moments, and then two people who should have been adults looked at each other and laughed and joked around.

The situation of Jian Shiwu is actually not much better than that of Lui Heng. The Jian family is an orthodox scholarly family, and the family tradition is that when a child enters society, the parents can not interfere too much, so that he can feel his way and accept the storms. So when Jane Shiwu decided to become independent, Jian Zicheng no longer provided him with facilitation.

So he would have to face the dilemma of not being able to pay the company rent alone.

"Here we are."

When they arrived at the downstairs of the Fenghua Hotel, Jian Shiwu and Lui Heng hadn't even gone inside when they realized that something wasn't quite right about the line at the hotel entrance today. The red carpet was spread from the outside to the stairway, rows of attendants stood respectfully, grand and sacred, like palace servants awaiting the return of their king.

Jian Shiwu said quietly to Lui Heng, "Is the producer you've asked out this time so big?"

"It's..."

Lui Heng was in some difficulty as he said, "I think Director Wang Dao is really famous in the industry, but Fenghua certainly won't roll out the red carpet because of his arrival, unless it's one of the business giants coming to have his bowl of noodles ."

Jian Shiwu was thoughtful.

Because of the great pomp and circumstance over here, the two of them could only go in through the side door with good sense.

Even from afar, Lui Heng could still point out a figure and he said, "But it's true that he's waiting for someone, isn't that Wang Gongzi, who was so arrogant before?"

Jian shiwu looked away.

The man who looked at people with his nostrils, the Wang Gongzi, who usually played the game without any integrity, and even licked his face and said he wanted to adopt him, it was this kind of man who was so condescending, but this time he was standing at the entrance of the hotel, like a serious welcome boy.

Jian Shiwu pursed his lips at the Lui Heng and said softly, "There are mountains outside the mountains, there are people outside the people, it’s normal, let's go in."

"Good."

After the two of them entered, an attendant came to lead the way. From the attendant's mouth, they learned that the people who came this time were indeed some big people. The CEOs of several big companies in City A led the reception. On the 12th floor, the protagonists of the reception also had strong backgrounds. In easy-to-understand words, this reception was like a meeting of golden turtles.

The attendant couldn't stop being envious and admiring as they spoke.

It's a pity that Jian Shiwu and Lui Heng are not people who haven't seen the world before. After listening to it, they are not too excited and forgot about it.

......

On the other hand

Twelfth floor banquet

The crowd is surging, but among the crowds coming and going, if one could distinguish carefully, one can actually the center of the crowd. On a gorgeous sofa full of people, everyone is drinking but all eyes were always looking at one place. At the very center of the sofa, sits a man in a suit and leather shoes. The black high-end suit fabric is elegant and slender under the light.

He was sitting lazily with a glass of red wine in his hand. When he pursed his lips and drank, people would be attracted by the mature and handsome face, but no one dared to look directly. The dangerous aura he emitted is enough to shake people.

Mr. Wang walked over with his wine, his smile tinged with some ingratiation, "Mr. Shen."

Shen Cheng glanced at him indifferently.

Two girls were hanging on Wang Gongzi's arms, and he took the initiative to say, "Tonight, you can have as much fun as you like."

The two girls were in Mr Wang's arms, but their eyes kept glancing at Shen Cheng, they had been in the circle for a long time, not that they had never seen anyone rich, but they had never seen a man who was so rich and good looking. Most of those rich men were foul looking. The girls had pretty faces and great bodies, they generally ate well everywhere, and following their golden master was considered the default, but if it was the man in front of them, they felt they would be taking advantage of him even if he took them away for free!

The two women went to sit down next to Shen Cheng and moved closer, their bodies carried a strong rouge smell and Shen Cheng's eyebrows furrowed inaudibly.

"Mr. Shen." One of the heavily made-up women was confident and said meaningfully, "What do you want to play, we will do anything you fancy, according to your preference, and we can all play with you to your heart's content.”

Shen Cheng's voice was clear and cold, laced with the huskiness of the wine, his face devoid of joy and anger: "Is that so"

The woman thought she had a chance and nodded frantically.

She saw Shen Cheng glance sideways at the wine on the table, she immediately understood, and after actively pouring herself a glass, she tilted her face and poured it down. Although she had seen Shen Cheng drinking so casually before, she didn't expect the wine to have a spicy aftertaste, and she felt burned after just one glass.

The woman put the glass down, somewhat reluctantly, but still tried to lean into the man, "Mr. Shen..."

"Go on."

The woman froze and saw the cold glare of the man beside her, and in that instant, she felt the heat of the wine dissipate from her body and become icy cold.

"Mr. Shen, I..."

The degree of one cup was actually so high, and according to a woman's intuition, she was sure that according to the current frame, Shen Cheng would definitely make her finish the bottle without resting, then she might drink herself to death here tonight! Her face turned white at the thought of it.

Her body was trembling uncontrollably and she was about to cry out.

Luckily, in the nick of time, someone came to the rescue, a blonde Qiao An who smiled as he sat down: "Shen, you're a lucky man."

The foreigner’s arrival finally drew Shen Cheng’s attention away.

The woman trembled, wanting to run now, she almost fell off the sofa, but still dared not turn her head and leave, only squeezing out a smile that was uglier than a ghost: "Mr. Shen, I..."

As if he had only just noticed that something was wrong with her, in the dim light, the corners of Shen Cheng's mouth curled up into a cold smile, his handsome face both righteous and evil: "Aren't you having a good time, no more?"

The woman's face was white, she really didn't dare to continue drinking, under such pressure she subconsciously begged for mercy, "Sir I'm sorry, please let me go."

Shen Cheng's eyes crossed with a flash of disgust and he said in a cold voice, "Get out."

The woman ran as fast as she could, how eager she had been when she arrived, was how sharp she was when she ran.

Qiao An looked on with tears and laughter before he said to Shen Cheng, "You're in a bad mood and are taking it out on others."

Shen Cheng lifted his eyes to look at him, "Which one of your eyes saw that I was in a bad mood."

"And you don't admit it."

Qiao Ann scoffed, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, a traditional festival like this, in previous years, even if they didn’t usually contact him, Jian Shiwu would definitely send him a message. This master had been looking forward to the message, but for some reason, this year, it didn't come, which caused the master to be depressed all day, and the woman just now was unlucky.

Qiao An said, "Hey, let's go to the front, those old people must meet."

Shen Cheng didn't veto the proposal, the man made a move to get up and was just about to leave, but the cell phone in his pocket vibrated, a very slight little vibration, but it made him pause in his movements.

Qiao An narrowed his eyes meaningfully.

Judging from all these years, the cell phone that was kept close to this master, and with a non-ringing message, it was definitely the “one”

Sure enough, Shen Cheng, who had just agreed to the proposal, opened his lips, "Go by yourself."

The person who was just lazy a moment ago stood up: "I'm going out to get some air."

Qiao An had an I-know-it-all look on his face, "Take your time."

The man who had said he wanted to get some air crossed the layers of people at the cocktail party and finally stopped at the railing outside, his slender hand taking out his pocketed phone and seeing an unread message inside, he clicked on it and finally saw a small picture of the moon sent by Jane Jian, with two small zongzi, accompanied by two text messages, "Happy Dragon Boat Festival, did you eat zongzi today? , I ate them too!"

Shen Cheng narrowed his eyes, the coldness in his body melting at a speed visible to the naked eye after seeing the message.

Then he scrolled down and saw another message, "Usually take care of your body, oh drink less and eat more in M country, start with yourself! ~"

It was like an old cadre.

Shen Cheng's mind could already conjure up that Jian Shiwu would probably be at home at the dining table, eating dumplings while admonishing him like a good child, and maybe would shake his head nervously.

Thinking of this, the corners of the man's mouth curled up into a smile and he finally stopped looking at his phone and put it away.

Then he glanced indifferently downstairs, just about to return to the reception, when out of the corner of his eye he saw a familiar figure by the railing on the 11th floor, the one he thought was at home eating dumplings dutifully, messaging him about drinking less while holding his glass sideways, knowing, even if he couldn't see his expression, that he was showing a silly grin, wondering what he was saying to an unknown older man, the two people who from a certain angle looked close.

Start with yourself?

Shen Cheng raised an eyebrow, he didn't know that, after not seeing him for a few years, this kid had really grown a lot of ability.
