Although she had received a call from Lee Qingdong half an hour ago, Jing Yuann was still surprised to see him at the entrance of her own apartment.
"What brings you here?"
She turned to the side, allowing Lee Qingdong to walk in.
As one of the hottest stars in the entertainment circle, Jing Yuann's residence was extremely luxurious. Even the decorations on the walls were expensive.
Many people said that Jing Yuann, who had extremely ordinary acting skills, would definitely have a financial backer.
Lee Qingdong was the legendary financial backer.
However, only the two of them knew that this was fake.
"Didn't I win a big prize? I haven't had time to celebrate. "
Lee Qingdong looked around the living room. It was his first time coming to Jing Yuann's room, but there was nothing much to see.
A mansion, or a boutique apartment, looks about the same.
"And here I was wondering what it was that other people didn't know about, but you do know that some sort of movie empress bought it back with gold and silver." I signed the bet, and I didn't hide this from you. Why are you teasing me? "
Jing Yuann said casually as she took out a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator and handed it over to Lee Qingdong.
"Water and wine are the only things in the house, let's drink a little."
He didn't answer.
"Give me a beer."
She was even more surprised. "You want to drink in broad daylight?"
Even though she said that, Jing Yuann still followed her instructions.
Lee Qingdong leaned on the counter and drank a bottle of beer in a few gulps.
"You are taking too much risk with the gambling agreement. The current flow of water is too large, the index can fake it, but the income is real. "
He had already disagreed with Jing Yuann's decision long ago, but he could do nothing about it as she was an ambitious woman.
The betting agreement signed by the celebrities, to put it bluntly, was the result of excessive capital being poured into the industry.
In this era, an artiste was a walking IP project. Under the premise that the profits were tied together, the company and celebrities would earn a ton of money.
"Aren't you going to help me?"
Jing Yuann smiled charmingly.
She could tell that Lee Qingdong was not in a good mood today, so he stuck close to him and used his finger to lightly draw circles on his chest.
"I'm not a money printing machine. I only know how to fly a plane."
He laughed.
This woman was indeed a rare beauty. Unfortunately, she wasn't his type.
The reason why he had repeatedly paved the way for her in the entertainment circle was because he owed her a huge favor.
"Driving an airplane is so boring, let's just say …"
Jing Yuann pursed her red lips and acted naive: "You like air stewardesses? Do you want me to get a uniform too, we … "
Lee Qingdong gently pushed her away, a trace of impatience appearing between his brows.
Jing Yuann stopped after seeing the situation.
She had only been teasing him.
This kind of man, not to mention being unable to subdue, even if he did, it wouldn't really belong to a woman.
"I heard that your recent movie had a pretty good reaction to it."
Lee Qingdong suddenly said.
Even he, who was a grown man who did not watch TV, had heard his colleagues beside him mention it many times. This showed how popular it was.
It was said that it was an ancient costume drama where Jing Yuann played the role of the female lead.
"Yeah, it was a fluke. Originally, I didn't want to take it."
Jing Yuann lowered her head and played with her nails.
"Do you want to become even more red?"
It was very obvious that Lee Qingdong asked an unnecessary question.
To her, the only thing she wanted to do was to carve the word "want to be red" on her face, which was why she was ridiculed by the black powder.
"How?"
Sure enough, her eyes lit up and she went straight to the point.
Lee Qingdong grabbed Jing Yuann's wrist, pulled her over, and dragged her to her side. She smiled: "Stirring, don't you understand?"
She was surprised and happy. Her face was filled with disbelief.
Stirring up rumors with Lee Qingdong, was something that Jing Yuann had wanted to do a long time ago, but could not do so.
Because he didn't agree.
Very quickly, Jing Yuann calmed down.
She took the opportunity to lean beside Lee Qingdong, her tone very confident: "Just which woman provoked you?"
Just as she finished asking, Jing Yuann suddenly thought of something.
It was said that Lee Qingdong brought a woman to see Lu Zhiqing a few days ago.
Jing Yuann obviously knew Lu Zhiqing, but she had never placed this woman in her eyes, even though she had almost married Lee Qingdong at that time.
The reason was simple. Jing Yuann knew that Lee Qingdong did not have any feelings for her.
Without waiting for him to answer, she asked, "It can't be the one I was thinking about, right?"
Lee Qingdong laughed coldly: "You've been abroad and even learned how to act smart?"
Seeing his chain of reactions, the matter seemed to not be simple, causing Jing Yuann to immediately become alert.
Having known each other for so many years, there had never been a woman who could cause his emotions to waver.
"I'll give you what you want. As for how the media works, you should be more familiar with it than me, right?"
Lee Qingdong squinted his eyes and directly stood up.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Jing Yuann quickly urged him to stay: "My mom really misses you, how about we go to my house for a meal tonight?"
When Madam Jing was mentioned, Lee Qingdong's cold expression eased up slightly.
But he still refused: "No, I want to challenge the flight mileage record recently. I should be very busy."
Hearing this, Jing Yuann asked in astonishment: "The owner of that record was you all along."
"Therefore, I can only break the record."
Lee Qingdong walked towards the door without looking back.
"A workaholic!"
Jing Yuann stood on the spot, and lightly ridiculed.
However, thinking of what he said just now, she couldn't help but be so excited that her entire body started to tremble.
Thinking about it, just the words of Lee Qingdong's real girlfriend was enough to make him become famous in this world of entertainment that was filled with changes and waves.
No text messages, no missed calls.
There was nothing about Lee Qingdong.
This was the first time Zhu Yu picked up a phone today.
She was afraid that she was in arrears or that her phone was out of battery, so she would take a look at it every once in a while, afraid that she would miss it.
"Strange."
Zhu Yu muttered to herself.
Logically speaking, they should have been tormenting themselves all night long, but with Lee Qingdong's personality, he should have probably called them today.
Until she was almost asleep, Zhu Yu took the initiative to call him.
"Sorry, the user you dialed is turned off …"
The mechanical, cold, female voice in his ear sounded merciless.
Just like Lee Qingdong.
Zhu Yu laughed bitterly.
As expected, he had been thinking too much.
When she reached the television station on time, from a distance, Zhu Yu could hear that the dressing room was very noisy.
As she got closer, she could faintly hear her own name.
"This is over. I was just playing …"
"Director Wang did not even dare to fart after taking so many days of leave!"
"Haha, do you think she will come today?"
"I don't think so. How embarrassing! "He might have cried to death at home …"
"That's right. It was released in the middle of the night yesterday and even the server was paralyzed. It took more than half an hour to fix it. Tsk tsk …"
Zhu Yu had slept early, so she stood by the door and listened for a long time, still confused.
She was even more clueless as to what the so-called 'fierce tides' had to do with her.
