Chapter 587: Must Adore Him A Lot
Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Must Adore Him A Lot
The atmosphere had become deathly silent.
Suizi was ready to strangle Jingting.
She didn’t dare to look at the expression on Gong Xin’s face.
If it was her, she would definitely hate Jingting by now - did he do this on purpose?
Realizing this, Suizi pulled away Jingting before he could open his mouth again.
"He’s just joking with you. The character you’re portraying is a passionate warrior, all of our family love it. Such a vivid and unique role, a well-rounded character, your performance down to your gaze is perfect..."
Suizi tried her best to heap on the compliments, this one-size-fits-all praise could work anywhere.
It may sound slightly perfunctory, but it was certainly better than calling him a lapdog of the Colonel!
Gong Xin’s laugh was a bit stiff. If he didn’t sense the hostility emanating from Jingting now, he would be a fool.
After making small talk with Suizi for a while, he found an excuse and left.
Suizi saw him off with a smile, but the second she turned around, she glared at the instigator.
"What’s wrong with you? How could you be so rude?"
"So what, did the Colonel’s lapdog leaving upset you?"
"...Don’t randomly give people nicknames! Why did you have to be confrontational with him?"
Jealousy! Of course, Jingting wouldn’t admit such a noble reason.
"I haven’t asked yet, why did he come to see you? He couldn’t possibly have come to attend a literacy class, right? Hmm, he does look like he’s illiterate..."
"Shen Liangyin and his family are old acquaintances, he came to help him send me some things. The way you behaved was totally rude, how could he speak of us when he goes back?"
"Let him go woof, woof as much as he wants, I can’t hear it and it won’t affect me in the future."
Jingting didn’t care who the other man was, anyone who dared to drool over his wife would get a piece of his mind.
"Forget it, there probably won’t be any chance to meet again in the future, don’t be like this with others...if you really don’t like someone, don’t say it to their face."
"What did Shen Liangyin bring for you?"
"Some spring tea, you’re just in time, let’s go back to the room and have tea."
Suizi figured that she and Jingting wouldn’t have much chance to interact with Gong Xin in the future, they were not in the same circle and it’s unlikely they would become friends.
But what Suizi didn’t anticipate was that the next day, Gong Xin came looking for her again.
This time, he didn’t come to bring things but specifically came looking for Suizi.
"Director Chen, we came here with a drama crew. We’re planning to shoot a film related to D City. We need to understand the local culture and we’re looking for a knowledgeable local guide to take us to museums and such. If you’re available, I recommended you to our director, we can discuss the remuneration."
"I’m not very convenient, I grew up in the village and I’m not quite familiar with some urban customs. I can recommend someone to you—Factory Director Shen, you’re just in time."
Suizi’s eyes lit up when she saw Shen Liangyin enter, a brilliant idea popped into her head.
Shen Liangyin had come to return a book and Suizi pulled her over, practically recruiting her on the spot.
"Deputy Factory Director Shen is a native of D City, she knows the city much better than me. She also has plenty of time, she can definitely do a great job as a guide."
Gong Xin didn’t expect Suizi to refuse, this is something others would readily accept, but she gave the opportunity to someone else?
"What?" Shen Liangyin didn’t quite get the situation, but Suizi winked at her, indicating this was a great opportunity.
Shen Liangyin had left home in a huff, her finances were tight, this was a chance to get a part-time job.
Although Suizi had time and was almost done with her exam preparations, she wanted to focus her energy on Jingting, urging him to remember topics.
The previous day, when she wasn’t paying attention, he had pretended to read a book covered with a book sleeve, but when Suizi went over to check, she realized it was actually a comic book.
"Our Shen Liangyin is well-read and talented, she has read more books than me and she knows people in the museums in the city, which would be more convenient while guiding you." Suizi spared no effort to recommend Shen Liangyin.
Gong Xin was reluctant in his heart, finding a guide was just a pretense. He just wanted to spend time alone with Suizi.
But it was not appropriate for him to ignore Suizi’s words, so he had to pretend to be happy to accept Shen Liangyin. As for getting close to Suizi, he had other ways.
Shen Liangyin was quite willing to be a guide. She really needed money right now, she had brought only a few sets of clothes when she left home. Everything required money.
Suizi had mocked her several times, saying that she was stubborn in the wrong place. Even when leaving home, one should bring enough money, if not cash, then they should take some things that could be pawned. This was the basic rule.
Shen Liangyin could manage the factory, but she didn’t understand these small sayings. She had to eat Suizi’s food every day, Suizi’s cooking was really delicious, and she had gained two pounds....
In order to get out of this difficult situation, Shen Liangyin took the role of being a guide seriously. As the middleman, Gong Xin naturally had to be friendly.
After they left the night school, Shen Liangyin asked, "What’s your name?"
"I’m Gong Xin." Gong Xin’s voice had lost the passion from earlier as he couldn’t see Suizi, he barely brightened his face when he saw that Shen Liangyin was not bad-looking. He thought, this woman better not ask him for an autograph, as he didn’t bring a pen today.
"Which Xin?" Shen Liangyin asked.
Gong Xin had a surprised look on his face.
"You don’t know me?"
"Er, we know each other now." Shen Liangyin wondered why should she know him?
"Don’t you watch TV?" Gong Xin was accustomed to being pursued by everyone, but when suddenly someone didn’t recognize him, he felt uncomfortable.
"I don’t really have the time."
Shen Liangyin thought that watching TV was a waste of life. She had better things to do with her time like researching factory development, considering what clothes to wear, and how to annoy Chen Hansui. All this was much more interesting.
Gong Xin seeing her so straightforward, felt balanced. He thought it was probably a poor lady who couldn’t afford a television.
"Are you familiar with Director Chen?" Gong Xin asked.
"Pretty much." Enemies also count as acquaintances, right?
Gong Xin thought she was being modest. How could Chen Hansui introduce her if they weren’t close? In this case, this woman still had some value, perhaps he could find out more about Chen Hansui from her.
"Liangyin, can I call you that? Why don’t we have dinner together?" Gong Xin flashed his signature charming smile, confident that no woman could resist it.
"Well—" Shen Liangyin appeared hesitant, "Let’s do it another time, I’m not very free today."
Jingting, that devil, disappeared somewhere to read his comic book and left her to deal with the factory. There was a lot of things to be handled at the factory.
"Alright, let’s plan for another day then."
Gong Xin returned to the guest house arranged by the drama crew and, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, made the receptionist dazzled and smoothly borrowed the phone.
"Hello, Uncle Fan, I saw Chen Hansui. Yes, she doesn’t suspect me, and she seems to have a good impression of me. Don’t worry, I can definitely win her over, I won’t let you down."
Remembering Suizi’s words complimenting him, Gong Xin felt extremely satisfied. Chen Hansui must be admiring him a lot.
No woman could resist his charm.
