Although He Xin has now changed his refreshing image from the past, he has gray hair, an unkempt beard, wearing a gray pullover, a backpack on his back, and a down jacket in his hand. He looks like a member of the lower class of North American society.
, but anyone familiar with it can recognize it at a glance.
"Why is he here?"
Jiang Qinqin watched He Xin's figure disappear under the window sill. She must have entered the house by now. Her face was full of disbelief. No matter how hard she calculated, she never expected that He Xin would suddenly appear at her door.
I was shocked, but it was not a surprise but a real fright.
"Hey, sister, the new brother's look has changed. He looks like an uncle. I almost didn't recognize him when I took a look just now. It's probably his new look in the movie..."
Xiao Tang was also very surprised, but her and her boss's concerns were not at the same point.
"Oh, don't say these useless things, what should I do now?"
After Jiang Qinqin reacted, she looked panicked, thinking of her son who was sleeping soundly next door. He had disappeared for more than half a year, and the child was born, and the child was still his. He was kept in the dark about all this. How to explain this?
?
Hey, no, I seem to have never told the other party my address in the United States. How did he come to visit me?
She looked at Xiao Tang with careful eyes.
Xiao Tang was still thinking about it for his boss at this time, "What should I do... If it doesn't work out, just tell the truth. Qiang Qiang looks so much like him, sooner or later something like this will be tricked..."
When she raised her head and saw Jiang Qinqin's sharp eyes, she was stunned and asked in confusion: "Sister, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong? Tell me how he got here?" Jiang Qinqin snorted coldly.
Xiao Tang has been with her for almost ten years. When she returned to the mainland from Wanwan to develop and sign a new agency, Xiao Tang has been by her side. It is no exaggeration to say that the relationship between the two is as close as sisters.
, Jiang Qinqin even trusts her more than her parents. And when the studio opens, Xiao Tang will not only be the general manager of the studio, but also her agent. She will also donate some shares to Xiao Tang. But at this moment
, but she felt like she was betrayed.
"Yes, brother Xin, how did he find this place... Hey, sister, you don't think it was me who told him the address, right? It wasn't me, I didn't tell the truth!" Xiao Tang later defended.
Jiang Qinqin expected that Xiao Tang would not make his own decisions. He breathed a sigh of relief and wondered: "Then where will he get the address here? Did Sister Ma tell him? Or did he check it himself..."
Sister Ma was her former agent, and she bought this house under her introduction. However, although the current partnership between the two has ended, their personal relationship is still good, and Sister Ma has never disclosed the address here.
Give it to the media, otherwise there would already be reporters outside the door.
But even if she revealed the address here to He Xin, she would definitely say hello to herself in advance. But if He Xin checked it by himself, it would be a bit scary. I'm afraid he should have known about Qiang Qiang.
Already...
Just when she was thinking wildly, she suddenly heard Xiao Tang's "Oh!"
Immediately afterwards, I saw my little assistant said with an embarrassed face: "Sister, I remembered, maybe I was the one who told the new brother the address..."
"ah……"
Jiang Qinqin was startled for a moment, and then said with a serious face: "You said it wasn't you. You must have leaked the news when you were on the phone with him, right?"
She didn't think the worst of Xiao Tang, it was probably an honest mistake.
Xiao Tang quickly shook his head: "No, I definitely didn't leak anything when I was on the phone with Brother Xin. Maybe it was when I was on the set of "The Crowd" before. I seemed to remember that I was chatting with Brother Xin once, and we happened to talk about it.
Your house in America..."
As he spoke, Xiao Tang said with a sneer on his face: "Maybe it was at this time that I revealed the address here to my new brother..."
Then she hurriedly explained: "But the pregnancy hadn't happened at that time. I seemed to just mention it casually. Who would have thought that the new brother is actually a caring person."
"you……"
Jiang Qinqin pointed at Xiao Tang, her face full of hatred, but she couldn't blame her.
Xiao Tang's face was filled with shame. He raised his head cautiously and reminded: "Sister, I don't think we can stay upstairs. We have to go down quickly, otherwise what if my uncle and aunt talk to my new brother about the child..."
Before Xiao Tang finished speaking, Jiang Qinqin immediately walked towards the door. She paused halfway and hesitated for a moment, but still walked out of the door without hesitation.
Now that the matter has come to this, it seems that it can no longer be hidden. At this moment, Jiang Qinqin finally made up his mind.
…
Let’s talk about both ends.
He Xin was warmly introduced into the house by Father Jiang, and a kind-hearted old lady came out to welcome him. The moment she saw He Xin, she couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. She looked at him carefully for a while before finally recognizing him.
That is to say, He Xin and Jiang Qinqin have collaborated many times. In addition to the previous collaborations in "The Crowd", there are also "Qiao Family Courtyard", "Gang Qinqin", etc. The old couple are quite impressed by him.
"Xiao He, come on, come on, sit down. In fact, we have wanted to get to know you for a long time. Speaking of which, we really have to thank you. I heard Qinqin say that you have given her a lot of help over the years!"
The old couple were very enthusiastic. After greetings, Jiang's mother went to make tea and wash the fruits, while Jiang's father chatted with He Xin.
"Uncle, you're too polite. In fact, it's mainly because of Sister Qinqin's excellent business ability." He Xin said humbly.
As he said that, he took a look at the indoor space. The living room was large and very clean. The furniture in the room was also furnished in a rigid style that matched the appearance of the house. It looked quite contemporary.
Huh?
Inadvertently, his eyes were attracted by a milk bottle placed on the dining table.
Why is there a bottle?
But before he could think about it, he heard Father Jiang say with great enthusiasm: "Xiao He, to tell you the truth, I have known you for a long time... Oh, of course it was on TV. I remember the name of the one you played...
...Uh, "Punishment" right?"
"It's "Conquest," uncle." He Xin said hurriedly.
Like many viewers, most of them got to know him through the TV series "Conquest", and with the increasing number of reruns of "Conquest", he has maintained a considerable reputation among the audience, including "Conquest"
The same goes for "Latent", "Qiao Family Courtyard", etc.
Therefore, in the big environment of China, it is still necessary for actors to properly act in some TV series to maintain their popularity.
"Yes, yes, it's "Conquest". Xiaohe, your performance is so good! Your role as a gangster is so similar! I have seen all your plays, they are so similar!" Father Jiang's face was filled with excitement.
He sighed.
"..."
He Xin was inevitably a little embarrassed, so he had to change the subject and said: "Uncle, is Sister Qinqin out for something?"
"No, no, she is at home, upstairs."
"Oh, I heard before that she seemed to be in poor health some time ago. It should be nothing serious, right?" He Xin asked immediately.
"Well……"
Only then did Father Jiang realize that He Xin didn't seem to know about his daughter's pregnancy and childbirth, and that such a thing was a scandal in the first place.
The old man could only say vaguely: "Thank you for your concern. Qinqin is fine now and is fine. She is discussing work with Xiao Tang in the study upstairs."
After saying that, he stood up and said: "Wait a moment, I will go up and call her down."
"It's okay, it's okay, uncle, look at the big noise, Sister Qinqin should have heard it upstairs." He Xin stopped him with a busy smile.
"Oh, yes."
Father Jiang nodded, but the old man had something else on his mind and looked in the direction of the kitchen. He was afraid that the old lady would spill the beans and feel the need to go over and remind her, so he stood up and said: "Xiao He, you drink tea first, I'll go to the kitchen.
Get the fruit!"
"Uncle, please don't bother me..." He Xin naturally wanted to stand up and be polite.
But Father Jiang was resolute this time, waving his hand and saying: "Sit down, sit down, I'll get it."
With that said, he walked towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Mother Jiang cut a few oranges and was washing grapes. California is a famous grape producing area. There are many wineries around Los Angeles. The quality of grapes is very good and very cheap. This kind of grapes
When exported to China, it is considered a relatively light luxury fruit, and it is also nicknamed "American Red Grape" or something like that.
It's just that Mother Jiang was washing a large bunch of grapes while letting the faucet run, while she was thinking about something with her brows furrowed.
"Old woman, what are you doing?" Father Jiang walked in.
"Oh, I'm thinking about this Xiao He, why does it look so familiar to me the more I look at it?"
"Of course she looks familiar. She is a big star, and she has collaborated with our Qinqin several times, including "Latent" and so on. You have seen them all, isn't it? What's so strange about this!" Jiang's father muttered.
Mother Jiang hesitated and shook her head: "It's not this kind of familiarity, it's another kind of familiarity..."
But she couldn't tell exactly what looked familiar.
"Oh, what's the difference between this kind of familiarity and that kind of familiarity?"
Father Jiang was too lazy to talk to her, so he lowered his voice and said, "I'm telling you, Xiao He doesn't seem to know anything about our Qinqin, so don't let it slip later."
Mother Jiang was still thinking about something familiar, and her reaction was a little slow: "Oh, you said you were so loud..."
Just when the word "Qiang Qiang" was mentioned, Mother Jiang's eyes suddenly lit up, her mouth opened wide, and she quickly grabbed Father Jiang who was about to go out with the cut oranges.
"I know why this Xiao He always looks familiar..."
Mother Jiang's face was full of excitement, as if she had learned a shocking secret. She glanced in the direction of the living room, and deliberately pulled Father Jiang to a corner of the kitchen. She deliberately lowered her voice, but still had a slightly uncertain and doubtful tone.
He said: "Do you think that Xiao He's eyebrows and the bridge of his nose are very similar to our Qiang Qiang's... No, I mean our Qiang Qiang looks very similar to this person."
"Is it similar?"
Father Jiang's heart skipped a beat, not to mention that he really hadn't noticed. Thinking about it carefully, his precious grandson really looked a bit like the He Xin in front of him.
Could he be the mysterious child's father?
"No way, Xiaohe has been married a long time ago, how could he be with our Qinqin..." Jiang's father hesitated.
He couldn't believe it was true, or he didn't want to believe it at all. He was a married man, so what if...
Then my daughter is too much.
When Jiang's mother heard this, she was shocked: "Ah... you said he is already married?"
"Of course, his cousin is also an actor, and he acted in "The Piano of Steel" with our Qinqin and Xiao He." Father Jiang said with a complicated expression.
Although "The Piano of Steel" is not popular, of course both parents have read their daughter's works.
"It turns out it's her!"
Mother Jiang suddenly realized it and said hurriedly: "Then..."
Just when he opened his mouth, Jiang's father made a silent gesture: "Qinqin is down, let's check the situation first."
"Oh oh oh."
Mother Jiang nodded repeatedly.
It's just that the Western-style kitchen is open, so the old couple can only hide in the corner and eavesdrop, and occasionally peek into the living room.
Jiang Qinqin came down the stairs very quickly, and Xiao Tang behind her couldn't keep up. When she walked down the stairs, she saw the figure sitting with his back to her.
Her hurried footsteps stopped instantly, and her eyes were tangled and complicated.
Xiao Tang, who was originally following behind, saw this scene just as she reached the corner of the stairs, and there was no sign of Father Jiang or Mother Jiang in the living room. She also stopped quickly, and retracted her foot that she had just stretched out, and quietly
He hid around the corner and peeked.
To be honest, her boss had kept it secret before, and she didn't agree with it. In her opinion, her own happiness had to be fought for by herself, even if it was an accident, but now she has children. More importantly, she knew it very well.
, these two people actually have each other in their hearts, but there is an original wife between them.
Huh, so what if you get married? Can’t you get divorced if you get married?
Xiao Tang secretly speculated in his mind, and at the same time he was gloating about it and wanted to see what He Xin's expression would be like when he learned about this incident.
Because there was a thick carpet on the stairs, He Xin didn't hear any movement at first. He was just a little surprised that Jiang's father didn't come out after entering the kitchen. And his eyes fell on the milk bottle on the dining table again.
, maybe because my daughter also drinks milk from a bottle, so he is somewhat sensitive to this kind of thing.
Maybe it was a relative who came to take care of the child or someone else left it here? Could it be...
He didn't dare to think about the last conclusion, but when he thought about it, it seemed impossible.
Just as he smiled self-deprecatingly and looked away, he suddenly felt numbness on the back of his neck. When he subconsciously turned his head, his expression instantly changed from surprise to surprise.
"Sister Qinqin, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why didn't you make any sound? I was shocked!"
He immediately stood up from the sofa and took two steps to greet her.
To be honest, he was really happy the moment he saw Jiang Qinqin. Moreover, Sister Qinqin looked very good, her body seemed to have recovered, and her beautiful face was no longer as bloated as it looked in the video before.
, the only thing that made him feel a little confused was that Sister Qinqin's figure seemed to have changed a lot. She was more concave and convex, and she was more stylish than before.
