"You are too polite," Shen'er's mother said with a smile, "The final results haven't come out yet."
"Yan Yan has been sent here, and she won't miss this step," the eighth cousin also smiled happily, "We are here to thank Yan Yan for you. For our sake, she will also make things go smoothly.
, isn’t it, Xiaoyan!”
Yan Yan understood clearly that they were here to support her this time.
Because she is already valuable to them, who dares to say that their children will not need Yan Yan’s help in the future?
Although it is a bit realistic, this can be regarded as the first step for Yan Yan to integrate into the Cheng family.
"Come on, Xiaoyan, let's all toast to you." The eighth cousin raised the glass first, and others followed suit.
Yan Yan was generous and had a drink with them.
"Better!" the eighth cousin licked her lips, "Xiaoyan, let me tell you, we all live nearby. When you and Yiming get married, you must move to the Cheng family. Relatives must move around frequently!"
"Yes, we will all rely on Yi Ming from now on, and you will have to take care of us." Another cousin said.
"Where did you come from with so many demands? Don't scare Xiaoyan!" A cousin said: "Don't worry, Xiaoyan, after you live in Cheng's house, you can choose a restaurant to eat at every day, and I will make sure your meals are not the same every day!"
"Xiaoyan is a big star, how can she eat like you do? You eat like a round pig!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Yan Yan also laughed, but her mind was always clear. She found that Cheng Junlai was missing from the bustle.
Just as she was wondering, Cheng Yiming's arms suddenly tightened around her waist.
"Don't worry," he whispered into her ear, "You stay here, I'll go out and take a look."
He also noticed something was wrong.
After Cheng Yiming went out, Yan Yan stayed in the restaurant chatting with everyone, but she felt uneasy and found an excuse to leave.
She was walking along the garden path looking for it, when a figure suddenly turned around the corner and almost bumped into her.
The other party reached out to hold her shoulder in time, and a handsome and cold face suddenly broke into her eyes.
She couldn't help but be stunned.
picture!
so similar!
His eyebrows are somewhat similar to Cheng Yiming's, and the sternness between his eyebrows is exactly the same as Cheng Yiming's.
"Stand firm." The other party helped Yan Yan upright.
Yan Yan immediately recovered from her stupor and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
He was so similar to Cheng Yiming that she lost her composure.
"Who are you?" Yan Yan asked, "You look so much like Cheng Yiming, I almost got confused."
The other party raised his eyebrows disdainfully: "Cheng Haowen, remember, I am not Cheng Yiming."
Yan Yan nodded, "You are Cheng Yiming's younger brother, right?"
Cheng Haowen looked annoyed, "Cheng Haowen is Cheng Haowen and has nothing to do with anyone else."
After saying that, he walked away.
Yan Yan realized it later. After a while, she realized that she seemed to have made him angry...
"Yanyan!" Cheng Yiming walked quickly from the other side, "Why did you come out?"
Yan Yan hurriedly told him: "I just saw a boy who looks like you. He said his name was Cheng Haowen."
Cheng Yiming frowned and pursed his thin lips.
"Well..." Yan Yan compared it carefully and felt that she had to change her statement, "His eyebrows are like yours, and his temperament is somewhat similar, but there are still many differences..."
Cheng Haowen didn't have the calmness in his eyes, but instead had a touch of cruelty...
"Cheng Haowen is both my cousin and my cousin," Cheng Yiming said, "My third aunt married my fifth cousin, but my third aunt passed away due to difficulty in childbirth..."
It turns out that Bai Yu and his sister are sisters and sisters-in-law.
After the third aunt left, the fifth cousin drank and gambled all day long and ignored his son. Cheng Haowen took turns fostering him in the homes of relatives of the Cheng family from childhood to adulthood.
It's hard to say that he hasn't been looked down upon and ignored. Anyway, he has been silent since he was a child, and his behavior is inconsistent with his age.
"Once he stayed at the third aunt's house," Cheng Yiming walked forward while talking about the past. "At that time, he was only seven years old. He was called a parent because he had a fight with his classmates at school. The third aunt came back and said a few words to him.
The next day there was a disemboweled rabbit in the kitchen..."
Yan Yan was stunned and couldn't help but hold Cheng Yiming's arm.
"He didn't do it, he was only seven years old..." Yan Yan couldn't believe it.
"Many people suspect that he did it, but there is no evidence." Cheng Yiming shrugged, "But since then, relatives have reached an agreement to take care of him in turns. No one wants him to stay at their home for longer."
Yan Yan pursed her lips and asked hesitantly: "Aunt...it's not like she doesn't care about her nephew..."
She was talking about Bai Yu.
"My mother wanted to take care of him and also wanted to adopt him, but he would rather live with twelve families a year than live in my house for a long time."
"Why?"
"I have no idea."
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the entrance of the villa.
"Sister Yan!" Cheng Shen'er rushed out excitedly, followed by a large group of Cheng family members.
"Sister Yan!" Cheng Shen'er hugged Yan Yan and shouted excitedly: "Passed, passed!"
Yan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, the result was finally over.
"Congratulations, Shen'er!" She also said loudly.
I don’t know who took the lead in applauding, but others also followed suit and applauded enthusiastically. Cheng Jun came home and was immersed in joy for a long time.
However, from beginning to end, Yan Yan never saw Cheng Junlai appear.
She felt uneasy because of this incident and could not fall asleep after returning to the hotel.
Finally, I couldn't help but dial Cheng Yiming's phone number.
"Has Cheng Jun come to talk to you about selling shares?" she asked.
Cheng Yiming smiled: "You can't sleep? Why don't you come over and stay with me?"
She wanted to come, but she had an announcement tomorrow and had to get up at six in the morning to put on makeup.
"Cheng Yiming, tell me the truth, otherwise I won't be able to sleep all night."
Cheng Yiming paused for a moment before telling her: "Cheng Junlai called me and said that someone had given a higher price and he hoped that I could also raise the price."
"What did you say?" she asked.
"I can't accept the price he gave. If I really bought it at his price, I would lose millions immediately."
"You're raising the price from the ground up," Yan Yan took a breath and added, "You're ungrateful!"
The congratulations of the Cheng family should still be lingering over Cheng Junlai's house at this time, and they haven't dispersed yet!
"Who gave him a higher price?" Yan Yan asked.
"Many people are coveting the Cheng family's company. The company's own factory has pretty good production capacity," but Cheng Yiming hasn't identified the specific people yet. "You should rest first. I'll tell you as soon as I have news."
Yan Yan also wanted to sleep. The dark circles under her eyes were not easy to cover under the camera, but she couldn't sleep.
She was thinking about the shares. From the time she knew it until now, it felt like a roller coaster ride... twists and turns.
She called Qi Xuechun and wanted to hear the analysis of professionals.
"...Someone is causing trouble behind my back!" Qi Xuechun immediately came to a conclusion after listening to Yan Yan's story.
Yan Yan felt that it made sense, "When we were celebrating, Cheng Junlai never showed up. Did he secretly meet someone?"
Qi Xuechun nodded: "It's very possible."
Yan Yan was annoyed: "I should have waited until he sold his shares to Cheng Yiming before announcing the supplementary list."
Now Cheng Jun comes here to take advantage of both sides.
"It has nothing to do with this," Qi Xuechun shook his head, "Now that the Cheng family has slowly accepted you, but Cheng Junlai is going against you, there is only one possibility. He has found support, and this support is more powerful than Cheng Yiming."
Yan Yan counted all the people she could think of, and finally there was only one possibility left, Cheng Yiming's father...
Obviously this is simply impossible.
"Don't bother guessing," Qi Xuechun thought for a while, "if you keep an eye on the prey, you will know who the hunter is."
She whispered to Yan Yan for a while.
Yan Yan was a little worried, "Is this okay? Will you be in danger?"
Qi Xuechun looked firm: "Don't worry."
Yan Yan nodded and glanced at Qi Xuechun gratefully.
Thanks to having her by my side this time.
Qi Xuechun left the hotel, and Yan Yan went step by step to catch up with the afternoon announcement.
However, as she walked towards the dressing room, she saw the staff who passed by evading her.
"What happened?" Fortunately, the makeup artist on the set was familiar with her, so she asked the makeup artist.
When the makeup artist saw no one around, he said to her: "Sister Yan, where is your assistant?"
"...There was something going on at the company, and she helped me go back and deal with it."
"Oh, no wonder you don't know..."
While talking, Yan Yan's phone rang quickly. It was her former assistant Julie.
"Sister Yan, what's going on in the headlines?" Julie asked anxiously.
"Headlines?"
"You haven't seen it yet, look at it quickly!"
Yan Yan quickly opened a certain blog, but was slapped in the head and froze.
On the hot search list, there are words such as "bribing famous actresses" and "interfering with competition notarization"...
Although some of the accompanying pictures are vague, those who know Yan Yan can tell at a glance that they are eating with Teacher Teng, the judge of the Spring Breeze Cup Competition...
The makeup artist stopped the makeup brush in his hand and asked awkwardly: "Are you... still rushing to make an announcement today?"
Yan Yan took a few deep breaths and put down her phone, "Of course, you can't delay your work."
The makeup artist had no choice but to continue applying makeup on her.
Yan Yan looked calm on the outside, but her heart was boiling.
Who took the photo?
Who posted the headline?
Has the hunter Qi Xuechun mentioned gradually surfaced?
She can't panic, she has to stay calm so as not to fall into the trap of the other party.
After dressing up, she walked steadily towards the set.
It's not far or close to the studio, and the car ride is treated like a leading actress. Yan Yan usually walks through the road and it doesn't take more than a few minutes.
"Yan Yan!" Suddenly she heard someone calling her.
She instinctively turned around, and a flashlight flashed across her eyes.
She immediately realized that she was being watched by the paparazzi, and quickly covered her face with her hands and backed away. However, more than a dozen paparazzi swarmed up, front, back, left and right, and instantly surrounded her.
"Yan Yan, what did you bribe the judges for?"
"Is this a deal?"
"How much did you pay, or something else?"
The paparazzi's questions were harsh and harsh, making Yan Yan's face turn red and angry.
"Please get out of the way!" Yan Yan shouted calmly: "Otherwise I will call the police!"
However, the paparazzi didn't pay attention at all and instead surrounded her tighter and tighter. Yan Yan gradually felt difficulty breathing.
She wanted to shout, but at this moment she was the only one going to catch the announcement, and no one else was passing by.
She took out her mobile phone and wanted to call someone. However, as soon as she took the phone in her hand, someone squeezed her and dropped it to the ground.
There were feet all around her, and the phone disappeared like a mud cow in the sea.
Suddenly, in this chaotic scene, a person standing behind Yan Yan raised his hand to the back of her head.
