Originally, there were very few outsiders in Xinjie Town. Although it has caused a sensation recently because of the film crew coming here to shoot a movie, and many villagers from nearby villages come to watch the fun every day, the village in the evening still shows a sense of tranquility after the prosperity has ended.
The crew temporarily booked a few hotels in the town to stay. There were not many cars here. You could occasionally see a bus during the day, but in the evening there were very few buses.
Several shops were open, selling some simple trinkets, but business was poor. The shop owners brought stools out and sat outside, gossiping. From time to time, they turned to look at Jiang Se with excited expressions, and it was obvious that the topic was about the new crew that had arrived in town.
Jiang Se originally thought that Pei Yi asked him to go out for a walk because he wanted to tell him that he was leaving, but he dragged him along the road for nearly a quarter of an hour until the houses on both sides of the road gradually became fewer and fewer, and both sides of the road were filled with terraced fields that spread straight down. Then he stopped.
"When I came here a few days ago, I felt like I was standing on a high place looking down in a French vineyard."
He held Jiang Se's hand. It was already November. Although the climate here was not as cold as in the north, the coolness was different from the winter in the imperial capital.
She was wearing a thick windbreaker, and her hand was held in his palm and put in his pocket, keeping her warm.
Pei Yi must have something to say to her. He was wearing a shirt, casual trousers and a camel jacket. He looked simple and elegant.
Jiang Se looked up at him admiringly. The wind was very strong here and her long hair was messed up by the wind, sticking to her cheeks. Pei Yi used one hand to smooth her hair and hooked it behind her ear, revealing her beautiful face.
"Sese," he called out, but he did not say that he was leaving as Jiang Se had imagined.
In fact, Jiang Se already knew that he would go back to school. She was already very happy that he could come to accompany her for a week. Thanks to him, her part went so smoothly. She felt different every day and was really getting out of the psychological shadow day by day.
This state of mind also happens to fit the psychology of the character Tang Jing in the play. Her performance surprised Zhang Jingan, who has praised her many times on the set.
But even though she knew it, she still felt reluctant.
She waited quietly for Pei Yi to finish what he was going to say next, but he opened his mouth and said:
"Grandpa Feng recognized you."
As soon as he opened his mouth and dropped such a bomb, Jiang Se was a little stunned. The smile on her face froze. It seemed that she didn't hear Pei Yi's words clearly, and asked again:
"What did you say?"
"Sese, your grandfather recognized you. He knows you are Feng Nan."
Pei Yi said it again. Seeing her dazed look, it was obvious that she was shocked by what he said.
She was a little surprised, a little happy, a little sad, and a little bit of disbelief and fear.
All these emotions blended into her big eyes and eventually became complex.
Pei Yi gave her time to digest what he had said before, because he had something more important to mention to Jiang Se next. Compared with this matter, Feng Zhongliang's recognition of her was just a "small matter".
Ever since he called Feng Zhongliang and learned the whole story, he has been hesitating whether to mention it to Jiang Se.
Jiang Zhiyuan, the chief kidnapper who kidnapped Feng Nan, the mastermind behind the kidnapping, who had been imprisoned in Hong Kong for 19 years for kidnapping, has returned.
If it was just the return of Jiang Zhiyuan, it would hardly cause any waves. After all, the Feng Nan today is no longer the Feng Nan of the past. In a sense, even if Jiang Zhiyuan wanted to avenge the Feng family for sending him to jail and wanted to make trouble for 'Feng Nan' again, the one he found would not be the real Feng Nan, but just another 'Feng Nan' who appeared out of nowhere.
If Feng Zhongliang had not said that later, Pei Yi might have been in a good mood and gloated over the other's misfortune.
'Feng Nan' replaced Feng Nan and naturally got everything from her, and at the same time solved a lot of troubles for him.
The cooperation between Jiangnan Industry and Jianghua Group involves the marriage of the younger generations of the two families. With 'Feng Nan', this matter does not seem to be a problem for Pei Yi.
If Jiang Zhiyuan wants to cause trouble after he is released from prison, he will not find the real Feng Nan, but only her.
But Jiang Zhiyuan's identity was too troublesome. The moment he heard about this, he, who never believed in fate, almost couldn't help but sigh, what a bad fate this was.
In the past week, he has not been idle. While Jiang Se was filming, he talked about the matter with his grandfather in detail, mentioned Jiang Se's identity, and asked his grandfather to help check Jiang Zhiyuan.
Although his grandfather was angry about his grandson's behavior of leaving school some time before the exercise and finding a girlfriend with such a complicated background, after scolding his grandson, he was still very indulgent and spent several days to find someone to investigate Jiang Zhiyuan's background.
Naturally, Mr. Pei's investigation was not comparable to that of Xiao Liu. In addition to Jiang Se's life, he also had information about Jiang Zhiyuan's background, his character and what he had done in his early years, and who had been involved in the past three generations. All of these were clearly investigated.
He was born into a poor family. If some people who are born with everything without any effort are considered to be favored by fate, then Jiang Zhiyuan, who has not achieved any results despite his efforts, must be a bad joke played by fate on him.
When he was young, he had no place to live and followed his father, learning how to commit crimes. He was smart but did not use his intelligence in the right way. He had a strong antisocial personality, which was already revealed when he was young.
He is lawless, has no legal identity or household registration, has a ruthless personality, and there is nothing he dare not do.
If Zhou Hui had not been fascinated by his face and became pregnant, Pei Yi could almost imagine that the final outcome of such a person would be either to become a leader who endangers others, or to be insignificant and be hacked to death on the street one day.
But strangely, the birth of his daughter changed some of his views, but ultimately did not lead to a good result.
He had no household registration, so it was unrealistic for him to find a job. He once tried to work illegally without a contract, but his boss took advantage of his lack of legal status and maliciously withheld his wages, and even kicked him out in a cruel way.
During the most difficult times, Zhou Hui held her daughter and cried with hunger, but he had nothing except his fists and his face.
Under such circumstances, he chose to gather a few of his old friends, sneaked into Hong Kong, and planned to kidnap the rich and extort them. (To be continued)
