But considering that he and Cheng Zi had no grievances, there was no need to maliciously slander him. He was probably telling the truth.
"What should we do?" she asked.
Wu Ruian shrugged disapprovingly: "I believe that Cheng Zitong has also foreseen this consequence."
Well, Yan Yan also thinks this makes sense.
She knows nothing about business matters and can't speak.
"I only believe in one thing," Yan Yan pursed her lips, "No matter what happens, Cheng Zitong will not let anyone hurt Yuan'er."
Wu Ruian smiled: "Have you ever thought about the truth that you don't care about what people you don't care about. Those who can hurt you are the ones you care about."
Therefore, Cheng Zitong does not have to guarantee anything else, as long as he does not harm Fu Yuan'er.
Yan Yan had no words to refute, and the figure of Cheng Yiming suddenly popped up in her mind.
Was she so angry that Cheng Zhenrui actually thought of Cheng Yiming? She quickly turned her head and looked out the window, using the scenery outside the window to distract herself.
Wu Ruian took her to a garden-style restaurant in the suburbs. The guests sat in a private room with the door open to eat, chat, and enjoy the garden scenery.
The light guzheng tunes flow in my ears like water, which is very calming.
"Are we just the two of us eating together?" Yan Yan sat down in the box.
There is a low square table on the tatami, with only two soft cushions facing each other.
"It's not the time for the cast and crew to get together yet." Wu Ruian replied calmly, calling the waiter to come over and take orders.
Yan Yan noticed that outside the gate, across the fish pond in the courtyard, there was also a row of private rooms.
There were several men and women sitting in the diagonal private room, and they all watched a girl cutting the cake.
The girl was suddenly stunned and used the knife in her hand to pry out a piece of cake. There was a ring inside.
Everyone cheered and pushed a man towards the girl.
The girl held the ring, smiled happily, and shed tears again.
"It's a very old-fashioned way." Wu Ruian said.
Yan Yan retracted her gaze and nodded, "It is indeed very old-fashioned, but it is also very happy to be pampered in this old-fashioned way."
"How do you want to be pampered?" Wu Ruian's eyes were bright and his love was undisguised.
Yan Yan was stunned for a moment and regretted that she had sighed and discussed a topic that shouldn't be discussed.
"Boss Wu, stop making fun of me," but she never had stage fright, "Let's talk about serious matters."
Wu Ruian didn't press forward, and followed her words and asked: "Have you ever thought about the candidate for the male lead?"
Yan Yan really thought about it, but she couldn't say it.
If Wu Ruian really arranged the actors according to her ideas, it would be acknowledging that he was treating her well.
But she has not yet decided whether to accept Wu Ruian's offer.
"I always listen to the company's arrangements." She replied.
Wu Ruian looked at her thoughtfully: "Yan Yan, why don't you dare to speak your mind? Are you afraid of owing me something?"
"I..." Yan Yan was speechless.
Wu Ruian continued: "You should be able to feel that I never hide my love for you, because I really like you."
He made it clear: "It's not fans' love for actresses, it's men's love for women. Although I let you know me by investing in movies, don't get me wrong. I don't want to replace resources and make you pay the price."
, what I want is for you to truly fall in love with me and share everything about me."
Yan Yan was stunned and speechless.
She didn't expect that he could guess her little thoughts and make such an unabashed confession...
"Boss Wu..." She has been in love for a long time and sometimes stutters, "Thank you... but I don't know how to answer you..."
At this time, the waiter came to serve the food.
The atmosphere eased slightly.
Seven dishes were spread out on the table, including Kung Pao Chicken, Perilla Vegetable Melon, Salt and Pepper Shrimp... all Yan Yan's favorites.
Especially the small cup of truffle meatloaf soup, which is her favorite these days.
Yan Yan thought with her toes and knew that Wu Ruian had specifically asked about it.
She thanked him for his intentions, but deliberately refrained from saying that she liked these things.
If he said that, wouldn't it mean that he accepted his kindness?
"Eat it while it's hot." Wu Ruian greeted.
She picked up her chopsticks and ate slowly, saying only: "It tastes good."
At this time, some voices came from outside. "Mr. Cheng, our box is inside..."
"The dishes here combine the essence of various major cuisines, which will definitely satisfy Mr. Cheng..."
When Yan Yan heard the word "Mr. Cheng", her heart skipped a beat. City A couldn't be so small.
"Don't talk so full of words yet," a familiar female voice said, "Don't get slapped in the face then."
Yan Yan secretly sweated when she heard that the voice was Cheng Zhenrui. City A is really so small.
Several people passed by outside the box with Cheng Yiming and Cheng Zhenrui in their arms. Yan Yan lowered her head subconsciously, not wanting to offend them.
Wu Ruian didn't ask, and instead said: "I've seen it, and there are no more than ten male actors who can carry the box office in the past three years. Among these ten, if you have anyone you particularly want to work with, you can mention it."
Yan Yan smiled and said: "Boss Wu thinks highly of me, but for this movie, you should still hire a professional casting team."
"Do you have any good team recommendations?" he then asked.
Yan Yan understood that he wanted to use the movie to involve them in the same thing and create more opportunities for them to get along.
This was her first time to experience being pursued like this.
"Boss Wu, I really wanted to star in this movie, so I took the initiative to find you at that time. If the investor was another boss, I would also take the initiative to find him. I am deeply honored that you like me, but if it comes to negotiation
When it comes to love, you really are not my type." She said this from the bottom of her heart.
Wu Ruian lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Sorry, I have to go to the bathroom." She went out to relieve the embarrassment.
Walking along the corridor to the corner, she heard two men talking.
"...I got him drunk and I don't believe he didn't sign..."
"I heard that he has a good drinking capacity, so he doesn't get drunk easily."
"Whether you can get drunk depends on the wine..."
She didn't look sideways and walked straight forward.
But she already recognized these two people, who had just embraced Cheng Yiming and walked forward.
There are many such scams in the business world, and she will understand what is going on as soon as she hears it.
Suddenly a figure flashed out in front of him. Yan Yan glanced at it and subconsciously hid.
There happened to be an empty box next to it, so she hid behind the door of the box.
Cheng Zhenrui passed by the box and came to the two men, "You are thinking of tricking my brother, aren't you?"
"How dare you? Let's discuss how to make Mr. Cheng eat more happily." The man quickly explained.
Cheng Zhenrui smiled: "Actually, I also want my brother to cooperate with you. Your company is of high standard and has a good reputation. If my brother doesn't choose you, you will be sorry for yourself."
The two men looked at each other in surprise.
"Listen to me and bring some white wine. As long as the white wine and red wine are mixed together and you drink it, my brother will pour it quickly." Cheng Zhenrui said.
"Isn't this good..." A man hesitated.
"You don't believe me?" Cheng Zhenrui raised an eyebrow: "Do you know that Cheng Yiming and I are cousins? Why should I help him?"
When she said this, the two men understood.
The fights in the Cheng family's nest are no longer a secret in the industry.
Cheng Zhenrui and the two men went back to the box.
Yan Yan understood. Cheng Zhenrui and Cheng Yiming looked very warm, but they were actually like thunder.
Should she call and talk to Cheng Yiming?
Then I thought about it, they were brother and sister, she and he were nothing, so why bother meddling in their own business.
She returned to the box and wanted to leave first on the pretext that she had to catch up with the announcement.
Wu Ruian put down his chopsticks happily and said, "I'll take you there."
Just when she was about to refuse, he said first, "Even if you don't accept my pursuit, it's okay to let me take you home."
She couldn't refuse anymore.
The two walked out of the hotel and waited for the waiter to bring the car.
"Boss Wu, please leave first, I have something to do." She finally decided to go back to find Cheng Yiming.
Wu Ruian watched her figure go away. She turned around quickly and didn't give him any time to react...
Yan Yan walked along the corridor and looked from box to box. She was surprised that she didn't see Cheng Yiming and his group.
There was only one private room with messy cups and plates, and it looked like the guests had just left.
At this time, a man quickly walked into the box, picked up a dropped suit jacket and left.
Yan Yan quickly followed, and she recognized that this man was the one she was looking for.
She followed him to the parking lot outside the side door. She saw Cheng Yiming being supported by two men. Someone else opened the car door and was about to push him into the car.
"Cheng Yiming!" She rushed forward, pushed one of the men away, and supported him herself.
His whole body exuded a strong smell of alcohol, his eyes were closed tightly, and he was swaying around.
"Cheng Yiming, how are you?" She called urgently: "Wake up."
"Who are you?" The man was dissatisfied.
"Yan Yan, what are you meddling in?" Cheng Zhenrui, who had already gotten into the car, poked her head out.
Yan Yan could see clearly that they must have worked together to abduct Cheng Yiming to do something.
"He is drunk, I want to take him back." Yan Yan replied firmly.
"Why do you do that!" Cheng Zhenrui yelled angrily.
"I am his fiancée." Yan Yan retorted unceremoniously, "This is something everyone in the Cheng family knows. You don't know it, right?"
"If any of you dare to stop me, I will call the police immediately!" She yelled at several other men.
They were a little stunned.
At this time, Cheng Yiming opened his eyes in a daze.
They couldn't help but hold their breath, seeing that things were about to go wrong...
Cheng Yiming looked at Yan Yan lazily and asked, "Who are you?"
Yan Yan:……
After saying that, he pushed Yan Yan. Yan Yan couldn't stand firm for a moment and fell to the ground.
She just sat on the ground and watched them take Cheng Yiming away.
A big hand suddenly grabbed her arm, and with a strong force, she was pulled up neatly.
She met Wu Ruian's reproachful eyes: "Is it because of him that you rejected me?"
She shook her head and took her arm back, "Two things are not the same thing."
"Let me ask you, are you and Cheng Yiming boyfriend and girlfriend?" he asked.
She opened her eyes blankly, for a moment, and shook her head.
To be honest, he has never chased her.
"Are they an unmarried couple?" he asked next.
Yan Yan shook her head. She just wanted to take Cheng Yiming away.
"Since you have nothing to do with other men," Wu Ruian held her shoulders tightly and locked his eyes on her face: "I now declare, Yan Yan, from now on, you are my woman, Wu Ruian!"
ps, I saw the readers’ messages in the comment area. There are some things I wanted to say a few days ago, but I never thought about it. I wrote a chapter today, just to talk about it. Regarding some extra chapters later, some couples finally wrote
The novel is unfinished. Readers are right to discover this problem, because it is indeed unfinished. I have been writing "Young Master Lu" for several years. As the reader said, I made money from this novel. It is true that
, the money I earned from writing this novel can last me ten years. Because when I wrote the extras later, because there were no main characters, some readers gave up, and there were still others and new readers chasing after me.
But as the proverb goes, "There are a thousand Hamleys in the hearts of a thousand people." It's hard to agree with everyone. Some readers don't like the couple in the play, while others like it. To this day, the couple I regret writing the most is
It's Gao Han and Feng Lulu. Because in order to cater to the market, I changed Feng Lulu's character midway. Later, because of some comments, the story was completely unfinished. I have to admit that during this process, I was eager for success.
The eagerness to gain recognition from readers ultimately had the opposite effect.
Just like the "Cheng Fu" pairing, to be honest, last month, because of the poor response to the plot, I still wanted to end it in a hurry. But at this time, I received a message from a reader, and she told me that she liked it very much
I hope I can write the "Cheng Fu" pair well and not end in a hurry like Gao Han's pair.
I thought about a question at that time, why do I create? To make money? Or is it a hobby?
If it was just to make money, I could write a few more chapters a day, and I would still make money from just a few chapters, but I didn't do that.
Well, writing is definitely my hobby. Since it is a hobby, I should write more personally. I am committed to creating better plots so that everyone can like them more.
But I also have to be more persistent in my plot creation.
So here, I am very grateful to the readers in the comment area. I accept their corrections and criticisms and will make corrections.
"Master Lu" has also written more than 10 million words. There are many characters and plots involved in the novel. I can't guarantee that every character I write will be recognized by everyone. I just want someone to accompany me on this path of my hobby.
I will move forward together. Even if only one person is left with me in the end, I will persevere.
