Feng Zhongliang has put so much effort into this, how could he bear to be angry with Jiang Se and ignore her
"Nothing."
Xiao Liu shook his head and pointed to the garden:
"No matter who the old man is angry with, he will never be angry with you."
When he said this, Jiang Se hesitated:
"Then Uncle Liu, do you know what plans Grandpa has for the 29th?"
The movie "A Glimmer of Hope" means something different to her, and she really hopes Feng Zhongliang can be with her.
Xiao Liu didn't say anything, and the girl in front of him looked at him with anticipation.
He had been wary and prejudiced against her because of Jiang Zhiyuan, but later on, because of her plea, Feng Zhongliang gave him another chance and let him stay in the imperial capital.
Logically speaking, Xiao Liu should not hide anything from her and should tell her the truth.
What's more, Feng Zhongliang and Jiang Zhiyuan invited him to watch a movie, and the movie they watched was "A Glimmer of Hope", which had a special plot and was directed by Jiang Se.
Xiao Liu had no idea whether Jiang Zhiyuan would get angry and embarrassed after watching the movie and what he would do.
Back then, he kidnapped Feng Nan, but failed to extort a ransom and was eventually sent to prison by Feng Zhongliang, where he stayed for nineteen years. Zhou Hui married Du Changqun, which caused him to meet Jiang Se and his daughter but they did not recognize each other. All this accumulated hatred had no solution at all.
Xiao Liu sighed. Even though he had already called to book a theater for the movie, he even made an appointment with Jiang Zhiyuan as Feng Zhongliang suggested, and told him the time and place.
So many days had passed, but he still didn't understand Feng Zhongliang's plan.
Jiang Zhiyuan is a dangerous person. Feng Zhongliang is alone with him and even refuses Xiao Liu's company, which makes Xiao Liu nervous.
But Feng Zhongliang had made his decision, and Xiao Liu couldn't convince him to change his mind. When Jiang Se asked about it, he should have brought up the matter as a matter of course.
Jiang Se has a special identity. She is the daughter of Jiang Zhiyuan, but she is the only one who catches Feng Zhongliang's eye.
Feng Zhongliang doted on her so much that even though she had Jiang Zhiyuan's blood flowing in her body, he still treated her the same as always without any distance from her.
If she were to be told the truth, with her intelligence, she would definitely be able to find a way to persuade Feng Zhongliang not to do this. She could also keep an eye on Jiang Zhiyuan and make that dangerous person hesitate.
But when Xiao Liu saw her tilting her head, waiting for his answer, the words that were on the tip of his tongue could no longer come out.
Her eyes were clearly black and white, as if they were not stained by any dust. Xiao Liu felt a little ashamed of the thoughts that had arisen in his mind earlier.
The grudges between the elders have nothing to do with her.
When Jiang Zhiyuan kidnapped Feng Nan, she was just born. She might not even know that her biological father was a kidnapper. Feng Zhongliang must have had his reasons for not telling her this. So what right did she have to act on her own and make decisions, and ultimately make the old man unhappy
"Miss Jiang, you can go in and ask. If the old man is willing to tell you, he will definitely not hide it from you."
His tone was gentle and his eyes were encouraging:
"But the old man will not miss watching your movies. When you were in France, he kept talking about going to the cinema every day."
He has recently been thinking about renovating the basement of the house to create a home theater, saying that when he misses her in the future, he can watch the movies she starred in.
Xiao Liu had said this much, and Jiang Se had no choice but to nod.
In the garden, Feng Zhongliang was trimming a plum bonsai with a pair of scissors. When Xiao Liu led Jiang Se over, he actually knew it a long time ago, but he didn't raise his head.
"grandfather."
He was wearing a gray-blue shirt with a thick sweater jacket on the outside, and seemed to be thinner than Jiang Se had remembered before.
"You're back?"
Feng Zhongliang suppressed his joy and asked.
"Um."
She nodded and was about to speak when Feng Zhongliang said:
"Ayi is here too?"
She nodded again, "Grandpa..."
Feng Zhong knew what Jiang Se wanted to say, "Why can't you go with me to the premiere of "A Glimmer of Hope" starring me this time?"
She was a little anxious, "Are you worried that I won't perform well and won't play this role well?"
"Nonsense!" He put down the scissors and frowned:
"Is there anything you can't do well? How good was "Devil" at that time? It didn't win an award. It's not your fault. It's because those foreigners have no appreciation for it!"
He said this in a very defensive way. Jiang Se felt a little relieved when he heard Feng Zhongliang's defense, but he was also puzzled:
"Then why don't you want to go?"
"Grandpa doesn't want to go, but I have other plans." He didn't mention his appointment with Jiang Zhiyuan, but after he rejected her, she still sat down and helped him pick up the broken leaves. He couldn't help but feel pity for her and put down the scissors:
"You have grown up and are no longer a child. There are some things that Grandpa has to let go of and hand over to someone who is more suitable to accompany you."
His voice was full of emotion, which made Jiang Se's nose sore, and he shouted softly:
"grandfather… "
"I watched Ayi grow up, and I feel at ease knowing he is with you." He raised his granddaughter, and he knew exactly what she was thinking.
The kidnapping in her childhood had a great impact on her. He took her out of the dark room where she was imprisoned, but it was the person who would accompany her for the rest of her life who helped her get rid of the psychological trauma.
This is really good, and Feng Zhongliang is happy for her.
"Auntie Wang has prepared your favorite meal tonight. Let Ayi have a drink with Grandpa, and you can drive later."
He didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, which proved that he had made up his mind.
There was quite a big event on the night of the premiere of "A Glimmer of Hope".
In addition to the fact that this movie is another collaboration between Jiang Se and Liu Ye, it is also another work by the great director Zhang Jing'an after "Rescue Operation".
Zhang Jing'an won a grand prize at the French Film Festival with "A Silver Lining". Many people in China have been waiting for the release of "A Silver Lining".
Before the premiere even started, the huge theater was already packed with people.
People who have seen this movie at the French Film Festival were talking about some of the plots in the movie and the performances of the male and female protagonists. Pei Yi accompanied Jiang Se to put on makeup backstage, preparing for the premiere ceremony later.
At this time, in the same cinema, Feng Zhongliang was also helped into the elevator by Xiao Liu.
The time has come. Although Xiao Liu knew that he could not change Feng Zhongliang's mind, he still couldn't help asking:
"Do you really want to watch this movie with Jiang Zhiyuan?"
He was a little worried. As the time for his appointment with Jiang Zhiyuan got closer and he got closer to the designated theater floor, it became more and more difficult for Xiao Liu to calm down.
In contrast to Xiao Liu's anxious expression, Feng Zhongliang appeared very calm.
He dressed up carefully before leaving, combed his hair neatly, wore a Zhongshan suit, a black fleece coat on the outside, and leaned on a cane. He seemed to attach great importance to the meeting with Jiang Zhiyuan. It didn't seem like he was meeting an enemy, but rather a friend he hadn't seen for a long time. (To be continued)
