TRMP Chapter 49
by VolareLu Sen wanted to see who had captivated his Xie-ge so completely.
–Especially since it was a man.
Lu Sen, who had an abnormal fondness for stunning beauties, still wanted to pester Xie Jingshen with a few more questions, but Xie Jingshen gave him a cold glance.
“I don’t even have the chance to keep a beauty locked away… and you still want to meet him?”
Lu Sen: “…”
Lu Sen felt that Xie Jingshen not having the opportunity to commit a crime wasn’t his fault — otherwise, wouldn’t he be a hero acting righteously?
However, he was still full of curiosity about Jiang Yifeng.
Xie De was painstakingly trying to dig out clues about that person. Even if he was careful, the news still reached Lu Sen’s ears. If Lu Sen could hear about it, let alone Xie Jingshen.
Xie Jingshen treasured his lover so much, but the power of the other members of the Xie family was only not a threat relative to Xie Jingshen, but against others… If Lu Sen was protecting him, hiding the beauty at home wouldn’t be enough, he would definitely hold him while walking on the road, embrace him when hiding at home, and even make the beauty sit on his lap while working.
But Xie Jingshen not only didn’t let anyone accompany him but also boldly left him outside.
“Seriously, you make me feel like this person doesn’t exist in the world.” Lu Sen squinted his eyes and smiled, “The lover you described sounds like a character you made up to trap Xie De.”
“He exists.”
Xie Jingshen was extraordinarily calm.
“He’s good-looking, and has a great personality, just a bit shy.”
“Then Xie De has put in so much effort… aren’t you afraid of making a mistake?” Lu Sen asked worriedly.
“It’s okay.” Xie Jingshen sneered, “Let’s see if he can even find him.”
Lu Sen felt that Xie Jingshen might be obsessed due to sexual frustration.
He squatted down and carefully analyzed with Xie Jingshen the reasons why his little lover was so out of place. However, after listing several reasons, Xie Jingshen sternly denied them all.
Lu Sen finally concluded: “Maybe he’s too outstanding, so he’s out of place and gets ostracized. You weren’t popular when you were in school, he might be in the same situation.”
Xie Jingshen nodded.
Lu Sen thought Xie Jingshen had a problem in his head.
–Maybe outstanding and intelligent people always have some quirks.
Xie Jingshen lowered his head and drank his tea, but in reality, he didn’t take Lu Sen’s joking words seriously.
Jiang Yifeng has a good personality, a good temper, and memorizes lines very quickly—he has a very good memory.
Even if Xie Jingshen had a cold personality back then, he still knew that the people in school weren’t ostracizing him.
Except for extremely special rebellious periods, the more outstanding a person is, the more people they will attract. Even though Xie Jingshen always had a stern face because he was thinking about problems, there were still many people willing to show him kindness.
Jiang Yifeng was even better.
No matter how Xie Jingshen thought about it, he couldn’t figure out what was wrong with Jiang Yifeng.
He felt that there was only one possibility: the people at that time must have had some misunderstanding about Jiang Yifeng, and Jiang Yifeng’s emotions may have also been affected by certain things, and were in an extremely unstable state. Otherwise, it was impossible for Jiang Yifeng to drop out of school so drastically.
He needed time to understand Jiang Yifeng.
Fortunately, he and Jiang Yifeng had plenty of time.
Jiang Yifeng rested for a whole day on New Year’s Day. When he came to work the next day, the director couldn’t help but tease him: “Didn’t you take any snow scene photos when you went back yesterday? I saw a lot of people posting snow scenes on their homepages.”
“I took a few photos, but I forgot to share them.” Jiang Yifeng smiled.
The weather became increasingly cold after the temperature dropped. Taking advantage of the snowfall, the director compressed several snow scene scenes to be filmed in these few days.
Yang Yan, the male lead, and Jiang Yifeng all used the little snow on the playground to build snowmen and have snowball fights for a while.
After all the tossing, the chill on Jiang Yifeng’s body had been blown away.
He wiped his sweat, and Yang Yan approached Jiang Yifeng again, teasing in a low voice: “Did you go to see your boyfriend yesterday?”
Yang Yan was very surprised when she found out that Jiang Yifeng had a boyfriend, but looking back at the various things on the internet and thinking about the various inside stories of the entertainment circle, she felt that Jiang Yifeng having a boyfriend was not unacceptable.
“Yeah, he spent the holiday with me yesterday.” Jiang Yifeng smiled with his eyes curved.
“Be careful not to be photographed by the media. If you are photographed and it makes the news, things will be big.” Yang Yan kept reminding him.
Jiang Yifeng had filmed three dramas in a row and had an international endorsement, which was his rising period. If a homosexual scandal broke out, he would probably have to withdraw from the circle on the spot.
Yang Yan had gotten herself dirty, but she didn’t want to see Jiang Yifeng also unlucky.
Jiang Yifeng glanced at Yang Yan.
His emotions suddenly became a little lost: “They can’t photograph him.”
They can’t photograph him.
The person simply won’t appear.
Jiang Yifeng’s palms were supporting his knees, and the undisguised loss on his face made Yang Yan at a loss.
Fortunately, the assistant director called Yang Yan over, and Jiang Yifeng was able to find time to calm down.
He calculated the time. It was now Xie Jingshen’s working hours. Jiang Yifeng didn’t want to disturb Xie Jingshen’s work, so he could only focus his energy on his work.
Jiang Yifeng opened his email and found that Zhao Wenjun’s crew had replied to him — inviting him to play a small supporting role, with a total of several hours of lines.
Jiang Yifeng’s hands trembled a little. He immediately replied to the email and pushed the other party’s information to Luo Qi.
Yang Yan’s matter gave Jiang Yifeng a warning. Although he would fight for roles himself, he had to push the conditions and situation to Luo Qi first, and sign a contract with the other party after the company spoke first.
With the encouragement of the next play, Jiang Yifeng became exceptionally active in filming.
He was good at acting, and because he didn’t have many roles, many of the scenes scheduled to be filmed after the New Year were brought forward.
The filming of Jiang Yifeng’s role as the white moonlight was completed before the New Year. He helped Yang Yan adapt to the role in advance, and he felt particularly relaxed when he finished filming the last scene.
In the previous two dramas, he was either an unimportant supporting role or a villain, and the crew didn’t specifically arrange a wrap-up banquet for him.
However, now Jiang Yifeng played an important role in the play — the heroine’s white moonlight was basically equivalent to the male second of the whole play. The male lead was an external aid invited by the company, and the heroine was destined to be abandoned and hidden by the company, so Jiang Yifeng’s wrap-up became especially important.
The crew not only arranged a wrap-up banquet for Jiang Yifeng, but also a senior executive from the company made a special trip to attend.
“Our Xiao Jiang is really amazing.” The senior executive looked at Jiang Yifeng with eyes like he was looking at a money tree. “If there could be more exposure and more resources, how could you not become popular with just your face?”
Jiang Yifeng smiled shyly.
–Why did this sound so much like what he heard five years ago?
The senior executive held a wine glass and wanted Jiang Yifeng to drink with him. Jiang Yifeng pretended to drink, but quietly poured the wine into the plate when the other party wasn’t paying attention.
Not many people attended this wrap-up banquet. The director and assistant director were both from the company, the producer was also a senior executive from the company who didn’t come, and another person was sitting next to Jiang Yifeng. There were only four people at the table in total.
The senior executive was having a good time drinking. After a few glasses of wine, his palms pressed on the table, and he finally narrowed his eyes and revealed his purpose.
“Xiao Jiang.” The senior executive squinted his eyes at Jiang Yifeng slightly, “Have you ever thought about… you can actually take a shortcut to become popular with this face of yours.”
Jiang Yifeng’s heart made a “thump” sound.
The senior executive was still squinting his eyes and smiling, “Xiao Jiang, I know a lot of people who have the potential to become popular. As long as you think of a way, you can become popular.”
Jiang Yifeng thought, “Forget it, none of the people in our company are popular.”
But the senior executive felt that his hint made sense.
After speaking, he also glanced at Jiang Yifeng, as if observing his expression.
Jiang Yifeng silently put the wine glass on the table and calmly said in the other party’s scrutinizing gaze, “I have a lover.”
The senior executive’s face changed.
“Our company’s contract should have stated…”
“When I signed the contract, there was no such clause. I can freely fall in love. I can have as many relationships as I want. Even if I have eight boyfriends and girlfriends at the same time and get scolded until I’m kicked out of the circle, the company’s terms can’t restrain me.”
Once Jiang Yifeng got angry, he would become merciless when speaking.
The senior executive had drunk too much, and even his speech was trembling, unable to form a complete sentence.
The director and assistant director immediately stepped forward to smooth things over. The assistant director smiled naively and said that the boss had drunk too much, while the director persuaded Jiang Yifeng to calm down.
The senior executive felt uncomfortable in his heart after hearing Jiang Yifeng’s words.
He cursed and muttered, saying a lot of dirty things.
Jiang Yifeng simply wanted to smash the bottle in his hand on his head.
He silently picked up vegetables. No matter what the senior executive said, he ignored him.
The meal wasn’t enjoyable for anyone. Jiang Yifeng took a few sips of wine, but most of it was mixed with plain water. Perhaps the diluted alcohol didn’t work, and he was still relatively sober when he finished the meal.
The assistant director helped the senior executive out, while the director walked behind Jiang Yifeng.
“You can just say a few soft words. He’s drunk and won’t really force you… Why did you get so angry?” The director frowned and persuaded Jiang Yifeng in a low voice, “Don’t conflict with him. What if he cuts off all your resources…”
“I’ve already received several drama invitations, and there are three dramas waiting to be broadcast, and I have an international endorsement.” Jiang Yifeng calmly turned back and looked at the director, “Our company has eight senior executives, two CEOs, and three major shareholders. He’s not the only one, and he can’t possibly convince others to cut off my resources.”
“He wants to unite with others to suppress me. Could it be that he has to use the reason that I don’t obey his arrangements and am unwilling to be secretly ruled by people from other companies? He can’t cut off my resources, and he can’t stop my future.”
Jiang Yifeng’s emotions were exceptionally calm.
“He said he doesn’t obey others, and he won’t mention anything about tonight in the future. Why can’t I argue with him?”
Jiang Yifeng calculated it well.
That senior executive couldn’t stop his future.
“You…” The director stared at Jiang Yifeng in stunned silence.
Because Jiang Yifeng had drunk alcohol, his eyes were still stained with water, and his flushed cheeks even made him look a bit gentle.
It was just that when he opened his mouth, he didn’t seem as pretty and soft, as useless as his face.
“In our company, he’s the only one who’s lecherous.”
Jiang Yifeng squinted his eyes and came to the final conclusion.
The director didn’t even know if Jiang Yifeng was drunk.
He put the person in a taxi. On the way back to the set in the nanny van, the director was still unable to recover.
He could only think blankly–“Is it true that he has eight boyfriends and girlfriends that he said?”
The author has something to say:
Jiang Xiaofeng: You can’t even control me if I have eight boyfriends and girlfriends!
System: …
System: It’s not impossible to divide President Xie into eight.
Eight President Xies looked at each other.
It’s just a bit taxing on Jiang Xiaofeng.
