Xia Chaoqun looked at the time. She had a meeting in twenty minutes, so she only had fifteen minutes at most to drink tea with Luo Yin.
She had no intention of delaying, and they were no strangers to each other, so Xia Chaoqun nodded:
"Yes, I am married."
When Jiang Se signed the contract with Hong Kong China, she bought a pair of Hong Kong China rings. Pei Yi and she went to Hong Kong China to order the rings.
Before returning to China, she received a call from Pei Yi and took three days off to go to Bordeaux to meet Pei Yi. In addition to her ID, she also brought the pair of rings. At that time, Jiang Se should have planned to marry Pei Yi. Afterwards, because of the agreement they made when signing the contract, she sent a message to Xia Chaoqun to admit the matter.
It was obviously very boring to chat about such gossip with Xia Chaoqun. The topic of whether Jiang Se was married or not had caused a stir in the entertainment circle, and many people were asking about it.
Even employees within the company were privately speculating about the identity of Jiang Se's husband, and some expressed regret that Jiang Se got married too early.
Everyone who called Luo Yin to ask questions had other intentions, but the matter Luo Yin asked about had nothing to do with Pei Yi.
He watched Xia Chaoqun sip her tea, and knowing her personality, he had no intention of playing Tai Chi with her, so he got straight to the point and asked:
"Have you arranged Jiang Se's next job?"
He picked up the teacup, leaned back in his chair, and asked:
"I've seen her schedule. In addition to shooting the Federer commercial, she will be promoting 'Demons' after returning to China. Once the promotion is over, she will attend Federer's new product launch."
There were not many important matters. Luo Yin drank a sip of tea:
"I want to know, what are her plans next?"
Jiang Se's original contract renewal with the company was for only two years. Although it was still early, as the news of Jiang Se's marriage came out, Luo Yin would inevitably worry that she was planning to retire from the entertainment industry, so he came to Xia Chaoqun to sound out the situation.
"She auditioned for Cesare's new film."
Xia Chaoqun reminded her subtly, "Although there is no news yet, judging from her actions, she probably has no intention of leaving the entertainment industry for the time being."
Luo Yin breathed a sigh of relief when he got her answer.
Currently, Jiang Se has become Century Galaxy's signature first-line actress and has the ability to compete with Tao Cen. Once she gets the role in Cesare's movie, even if her qualifications are not as good as Tao Cen, she can no longer be underestimated.
It would be such a pity if such a female star retired at this time.
Luo Yin also wanted to support her. Thinking of this, he glanced at Xia Chaoqun:
"Her contract with the company will expire this year. As long as she is willing to renew the contract, the conditions can be appropriately relaxed at that time." He put down the teacup. "The company is not afraid of making conditions, but it is afraid of people who are not qualified to make conditions."
After a casual remark made the headlines, Jiang Se no longer paid attention to news in the entertainment industry. After returning to the capital, the first person she wanted to meet was Feng Zhongliang, hoping to take Pei Yi back with her.
Unlike before when she called the Feng family to inform them when she wanted to go, after learning that her grandfather already knew her identity, she suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, and had the same feeling of homesickness as Feng Zhongliang.
Pei Yi held her hand in the car. As soon as the news of Jiang Se's marriage came out, Mr. Pei called and asked him to take Jiang Se back in the evening.
The Feng family was getting closer and closer. Jiang Se picked up the phone and dialed the Feng family's number several times, but he just couldn't press the dial button.
When Grandpa didn't know who she was, she could still talk back to him and talk to him about her work. But now Feng Zhongliang already knows who she is. When they meet again, will he scold her for being disobedient and willful
Would he blame her for not telling him about her identity for all these years
She was a little nervous, but Pei Yi didn't say anything and let her make her own decision.
She finally pressed the number, and Feng Zhongliang's voice came from the other end of the phone. There was no reprimand as Jiang Se had imagined, nor was there any rage. She had originally worried that Feng Zhongliang would hang up on her, but it didn't happen. He just asked:
"You're back?"
Then Jiang Se's eyes became hot, and he responded softly:
"Well, Grandpa, I'm back."
Her words were full of double meanings and contained some sadness. Feng Zhongliang also heard it and was silent for a while before saying:
"I'm glad you're back." After he said this, the atmosphere fell into silence again. Jiang Se felt a little sad. Feng Zhongliang pretended to be calm after a long while:
"Where are we?"
"Outside the house." She replied, and Feng Zhongliang asked again:
"Which house? Did you come here with Ayi?"
"I came here with Ayi. I wanted to see you, but I was afraid you would be angry." She replied in a low voice. Feng Zhongliang raised his voice:
"You silly girl, you didn't even come in when you got to my house, do you want me to pick you up in person?"
His scolding immediately broke the strange barrier between the grandfather and grandson:
"You're not obedient at all. You refused to listen when I asked you to stay in the capital. You always wanted to run away. You didn't even call me when you went to France. I saw the news more than an hour ago that you and Ayi had returned to the capital. Aunt Wang has already prepared the meal. Are you going to wait until dark before coming in?"
His rebuke was different from what Jiang Se had imagined, but somehow it completely dispelled all the caution in her heart. She agreed with tears in her eyes, and Feng Zhongliang was also very sad when he heard her silent sobbing.
Pei Yi started the car. She held her phone, holding back tears:
"Grandpa, I miss you so much. I always wanted to call you when I was working, but I didn't dare to because I was afraid you would be angry."
She would never have said such things before. In fact, the personalities of the grandparents and grandchildren have always been very similar in some aspects.
In fact, how could he be angry with her? If he had to be angry, it was with himself, angry that he could not recognize his granddaughter in time like Pei Yi did.
Feng Nan was the child he brought up. It would be more accurate to say that Feng Nan made his later years less boring and added a touch of the silent warmth of family companionship rather than to say that he raised Feng Nan.
But he didn't notice the change in the child, and didn't even think about it in that regard. He had to rely on her repeated reminders.
Think about how she came back to Feng's house as Pei Yi's girlfriend and visited me after I fell and injured myself, and I spoke coldly to her.
She showed clues in front of him several times and was suspected by Xiao Liu and others. For several years, Feng Zhongliang had no idea how she got through it.
So the moment he learned her identity, he was happy, but also scared at the same time.
He was also afraid that she would be angry, and that his granddaughter would be angry at him for not recognizing her, which delayed their meeting for several years. (To be continued)
