Chapter 39

"Traveling? Why did you suddenly think of going on a trip?" Jing Zeqian heard the news that the Jing Beicheng couple wanted to go traveling when he returned home.He was a bit surprised, as in Jing Zeqian's memory, he had never seen his parents go on a trip alone.

Jing Beicheng looked up, glanced at him, and said calmly, "We want to go out and have some peace and quiet for a few days." Jing Zeqian was taken aback, while Jing Yi's lips curved up slightly.

"...So when do you plan to leave?"

Lin Ruiqing smiled and said, "We don't know yet, we've just made a rough plan with your father." Jing Zeqian nodded, not asking any further.

It's good to go out for a while. Lin Ruiqing has barely had any time to truly relax these past few years, always worrying about how Jing Zejun was doing away from home. Now that the family is reunited, it's time to relax a bit.

"Are you two going as well?"

Jing Zeqian asked Jing Yi and Jing Zejun, thinking his parents had arranged the trip to take Jing Zejun out to relax.

The two beside him shook their heads in unison.

"I have work coming up in a while."

"I'm staying at home!"

Jing Zeqian looked at the two strangely. If they're not going, that's fine, but why did they say it so decisively?

"...Alright then, I'll take you out another day."

Since Jing Zejun and Jing Yi came to the house, he hadn't had the chance to show them around North River properly. It just so happened that Jing Zejun was resting for this period, and Jing Yi had been staying at home, so he might as well take them both out to relax.

[It wouldn't be going to his company to see those mediocre male celebrities again, right? I'll have to politely decline.]

Jing Yi, don't think that just because you're pretending to watch TV, I don't know what you're thinking!

Jing Zeqian looked at Jing Yi with a forced smile, "Jing Yi, what do you think of those celebrities in our company?" He just had to ask like this! Sёarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Jing Yi's eyes widened slightly, and she let out a dry laugh, "They're quite good, a leading company in the entertainment industry, with top star Wen Qingyan, top actress Jiang Miaomiao, and countless popular celebrities under them..."

She began to list out Startrack's awards and honors one by one.

Jing Zeqian nodded with satisfaction. It seems that Little Wang had done a good job in tutoring Jing Yi about Startrack's related information.

Jing Yi glanced at Jing Zeqian, whose mood seemed alright, "But brother, I don't need to go to Startrack again. What if there's no parking space next time..."

Jing Zeqian glared at her. She really knew how to bring up the wrong topic. Besides, given her behavior last time, did she look like someone who couldn't get a parking space?

Lin Ruiqing was a bit confused, "What parking space?"

Jing Yi only then realized she might have let something slip, "It's nothing major, just a small misunderstanding with one of brother's company artists last time I went to his company."

Seeing Jing Yi's attempt to cover up, Lin Ruiqing could tell she was hiding something. She looked towards Jing Zeqian.

Jing Zeqian had no choice but to explain to Lin Ruiqing about Jing Yi's conflict with Jiang Miaomiao last time.

Jing Zejun actually knew about this incident. She also knew Jiang Miaomiao, a well-known actress in the entertainment industry.

Jing Zejun had filmed with Jiang Miaomiao before. The entertainment industry is full of drama, and it's common for people to show different faces in public and private.

She just didn't expect Jing Yi to encounter Jiang Miaomiao, and she was a bit worried. After all, Jiang Miaomiao wasn't an easy person to get along with. After the last incident, Jing Yi had probably been marked by Jiang Miaomiao.

Lin Ruiqing frowned slightly and asked, "It's just a parking space, why fight over it?"

Putting aside the issue of Jing Yi's identity, just based on who came first, that Jiang Miaomiao wasn't in the right.

Jing Beicheng thought a bit deeper. He didn't understand much about the entertainment industry, but this parking space incident was enough to prove Jiang Miaomiao's status at Startrack.

Jing Beicheng hadn't interfered with his younger son's decision to start a business in the entertainment industry. He had never been interested in Hengjing's business since he was young, so carving out his own path was a good thing.

Jing Beicheng had been keeping an eye on Startrack's trends, which were indeed not bad. But the entertainment industry was inevitably a mixed bag, and he wasn't sure if his younger son's management style was good or bad.

But after all, it was his son's company, so he couldn't say much. Jing Zeqian was the CEO of a company now.

Jing Zeqian felt a bit awkward, after all, it was indeed his company's artist.

Jing Yi saw Jing Zeqian's expression and couldn't bear to see him being lectured.

She quickly explained, "Auntie, it was just a misunderstanding. Besides, I'm not part of brother's company, so accidentally taking up a parking space did cause them some trouble."

"You went there to bring him documents, not to cause trouble. How is that causing them trouble?"

But seeing that Jing Yi was speaking up for him, and that Jing Zeqian had stood on Jing Yi's side at the time, Lin Ruiqing didn't push him further.

However, Lin Ruiqing was still curious about this Jiang Miaomiao, "Junjun, do you know this Jiang Miaomiao?"

Jing Zejun turned to look at Lin Ruiqing, "I'm not sure if it counts as knowing her, but I know of this person."

Although they had filmed the same movie, they barely had any interaction.

Lin Ruiqing nodded in understanding. Not really knowing her meant that this Jiang Miaomiao hadn't bothered Junjun.

"Brother, what kind of person do you think Jiang Miaomiao is in your company?" Jing Zejun suddenly spoke up, surprising even Jing Yi who looked over.

Jing Zeqian thought Jing Zejun might have a bias against Jiang Miaomiao because of the parking space incident.

Jing Zeqian said seriously, "Junjun, although Miaomiao can be a bit arrogant, there's no problem with her abilities."

Otherwise, she wouldn't have become Startrack's top actress. She had the works to back it up. Plus, he was planning to have Jiang Miaomiao look after Jing Zejun a bit, which would also be good for her development.

Jing Zejun nodded, lowering her eyes to hide the complex emotions within.

[Oh ho, Jing Zeqian is no longer simply valuing Jiang Miaomiao.]

Jing Zeqian didn't know where Jing Yi's hostility towards Jiang Miaomiao came from. It couldn't be because of the parking space incident, could it?

But he couldn't ask directly, because Jing Yi hadn't shown any outward dissatisfaction towards Jiang Miaomiao.

"Junjun, I won't comment on her character, since you can never truly know a person. But Miaomiao is also an actress, and as you know, she has several major awards. You two could find some time to exchange ideas about acting techniques and such."

[Better not!]

"That's not necessary, brother." Two voices rang out simultaneously.

Lin Ruiqing opened her mouth, then swallowed her objection. Seeing that her daughter knew what she was doing, she decided not to interfere.

Seeing Jing Zeqian looking a bit deflated, Jing Yi nudged his shoulder. "Come on, Junjun is so amazing, what acting techniques does she need to exchange? She's a leading actress herself!"

"Brother, I'm not that familiar with Sister Miaomiao. Asking someone to look after me out of the blue like this would not only put you in their debt, but also make it awkward for Sister Miaomiao. So it's better if I just learn as I film."

Jing Zeqian sighed, tugging at the corner of his mouth, and said helplessly, "Fine! You two have it your way! You little troublemakers."
