Long-distance flights are the most tiring. But Paris is far away from Heping City, and Kang Mucheng insisted on taking Jian Jing with him, and they couldn't avoid the flight that lasted more than ten hours.
Jian Jing was not interested: "I had to fly to Paris to buy it. If I don't win the prize, I will be laughed at."
"It's your first nomination, so it won't hurt to be cautious." Kang Mucheng said, "I also want you to stay away."
Regardless of whether the scarred man followed her or not, it was safer to go abroad, and it would save him from worrying that the man might disappear at any time.
She was in the mountains some time ago and we couldn't get in touch with her for no reason. If she hadn't known that she went with Ji Feng, she would have been scared to death.
"Then pray that I win the prize." Jian Jing muttered as she sank into her seat. Fortunately, the first-class cabin had plenty of space, otherwise her legs would have been crippled after sitting for more than ten hours.
She opened her iPad and paused her finger on the memo. In the end, she did not open the electronic version of the file, but instead chose a downloaded variety show.
Kang Mucheng glanced at it and asked: "The show that Jiang Baiyan participated in?"
"He recommended it to me, saying it looks like a travel variety show, but it's actually a palace drama." Jian Jing put on her headphones, "There are three male guests, one straight, one gay, and one bi. The gay and bi are ex-ex's, and the bi's ex is a female guest. She and the gay are best friends. The two female guests set up good sisters at the beginning, but turned against each other at the end."
Kang Mucheng: "You just look at that one?"
"It's so fun." She said, "The audience thought Wan and her bestie were hyping up a couple and that they were good people, but I feel sorry for their brother."
Kang Mucheng shook his head and said nothing more.
A few hours later, many passengers began to feel sleepy, and the flight attendants began to serve airline meals. Jian Jing had no appetite and asked for a glass of white wine to help her sleep.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?" he asked.
Jian Jing said: "Staying up late playing games."
As soon as her brain was idle, she would automatically think about the case. She had no choice but to throw herself into the game and concentrate on playing it all night.
Not to mention, after my physical fitness improved, I had more fun playing games.
The response is faster, the operation is more accurate, and the more you play, the more addictive it becomes.
Kang Mucheng sighed, and just as he was about to speak, she smiled and said, "I know that staying up late is bad for your health. I didn't do it on purpose. I was so engrossed in playing that I forgot about time."
Blocked everything he wanted to say.
Logically speaking, he should be pleased with her understanding, but the fact was quite the opposite. This feeling made Kang Mucheng feel very powerless.
There are always similar moments recently, when I want to say something but have nothing to say.
So, with mixed feelings, he had to change the subject: "Yingjie is also in Paris, he is waiting for us at the hotel."
Jian Jing asked with concern: "How is he?"
During the summer vacation, Si Yingjie invited them to go on vacation to Mermaid Island, but they encountered the most terrible Shura field in their lives. They met their ex-wife and ex-girlfriend, and then their ex-girlfriend was killed by her best friend. Later, they found out that their ex-wife was a commercial spy who was after the secrets.
He was devastated and rarely contacted her after returning home.
"Not so good, so ask him to come out and relax, he can also help you with some advice." Kang Mucheng handed her two fashion magazines, "If you feel bored, go catch up on your studies."
Since she had nothing to do, she took over the magazine and started to learn about major fashion brands.
After eating and sleeping from time to time, I finally survived the long flight.
We have arrived in Paris.
People think of Paris as a romantic and elegant city, a place of pilgrimage for many people. However, this is probably not the case. Like every city, it has its magnificent and profound side, as well as its miserable and poor side.
Anyway, Jian Jing feels that there are more thieves here than in China.
While sitting in her car on the way to the hotel, she witnessed three thefts and a robbery.
In this regard, she had to comfort herself that it was Paris, not London, and Paris was not a suitable place for murders to happen.
When we arrived at the hotel, the public security situation suddenly improved.
Needless to say, Jian Jing met Si Yingjie again.
He was thinner than before, and his spirits hadn't improved. He didn't look as enthusiastic as when we met on vacation. Today, he was dressed casually and greeted lazily, "Xiao Jingjing, are you also interested in fashion shows?"
"Boss Kang insisted that I come." Jian Jing immediately betrayed her boss, "I know nothing about fashion. I don't know what's so good about a fashion show."
Si Yingjie glanced at her and said to her friend: "Models are still very beautiful."
Jian Jing: “…” Haha, man.
Si Yingjie also sighed: "Gisele Bundchen has such a beautiful figure."
In front of the beauty, Jian Jing changed sides without any stance: "Yes, that's right."
Think about it again, now that I'm here, I can't waste the opportunity.
So, the next day, she went to a big brand show with some expectations.
Met a lot of celebrities and internet celebrities.
Many celebrities and internet celebrities come to walk the red carpet.
There are also many foreign stars, but I don’t recognize any of them.
There were a lot of reporters at the door. Some were treated like stars, while others were ignored.
The show venue is not big and the location is very small.
Jian Jing looked at the small stools and asked in a low voice, "Is it a bit crowded?"
Si Yingjie: "It's so crowded."
she:"!!!"
Before the show started, the place was extremely lively with people chatting, taking photos, and socializing.
The most surprising thing was that a foreign internet celebrity came over and called Jian Jing's name in extremely awkward Chinese, asking her if she was the author of "The Devil Doctor" and a guest of the haunted house.
Jian Jing: “I…” No.
Si Yingjie: “Yes!”
she:"??"
Just like that, a completely unknown internet celebrity hugged her shoulders and took a photo with her. The other party enthusiastically left her account number and invited her to follow each other.
"It seems that the sales of Demon are good." Si Yingjie sighed.
Kang Mucheng nodded slightly, with a hint of joy in his eyes: "It's even better than when it was released in China. It's ranked seventh on the New York Times bestseller list."
Jian Jing was shocked: "Why don't I know?"
He said slowly: "Who knows? Anyway, I called you, but I couldn't get through."
She: “…” I know, the time when I was dating a zombie.
Quickly change the subject: "Let's get started."
The lights dimmed, the music started, a fantastical world came onto the stage, and models walked in with catwalks, wearing gorgeous clothes that looked incomprehensible but still impressive.
To be fair, the clothes are weird, but the overall experience they give people is very beautiful. Of course, this kind of beauty is just for outsiders to see, and they cannot interpret all kinds of high-end connotations.
An hour and a half later, the show ended.
The others walked away quickly and the party ended in a rush.
Jian Jing: "What are they in such a hurry to do?"
"Watch the next show." Si Yingjie said, "I've been very gentle with you. We're watching high-end shows."
She sighed and accepted her fate.
Each show has its own theme. The previous one talked about nature and environmental protection, and the next one talked about dreams and love, using a lot of lace, feathers and rose elements.
When the beam of light shines down, the model is so beautiful that she doesn't seem like an earthly being.
Si Yingjie said to Jian Jing: "The wedding dresses you buy are beautiful. You should get married with a good one."
Jian Jing held her head up and didn't speak for a long time.
Kang Mucheng seemed to have noticed something and asked, "Do you think the element of roses fits the theme of the book?"
She nodded.
"Then let's go with this one." Si Yingjie decided, "You don't have to get married to wear a wedding dress. It's a different era now. Just buy one if you like it."
Jian Jing pursed her lips, her eyes bright: "I want a small dress that doesn't hinder my movements too much."
"Buy everything, buy the whole set." Si Yingjie urged her, "Ask Mucheng to reimburse you."
Jian Jing shook her head: "No, I can buy it myself."
"Just your little royalty?" Kang Mucheng glanced at her and rejected her flatly, "Children should save more money and don't spend it recklessly."
A question mark slowly emerged in Jian Jing's mind.
That's all the royalties? Are her royalties very little? It's eight figures this year.
How much is Mr. Kang’s net worth
He is so Versailles. Does Jinwu make money
She tried to take back the initiative: "I think..."
"Let's go. If you like something, just decide on it. This way you won't be picked on by others." Kang Mucheng stood up.
Si Yingjie: "I'm so hungry, Jingjing, what do you want to eat for dinner?"
Jian Jing felt helpless. This is the disadvantage of being with adults you met when you were a teenager: they always think you haven't grown up yet.
She thought about it and said, "Then I will buy my own shoes."
"How much is a pair of shoes?" Si Yingjie looked down on her and said, "Brother will give them to you."
Jian Jing quickly agreed: "Okay, then I'll buy the jewelry myself."
Si Yingjie finally reacted and said speechlessly: "Is it necessary to give you something?"
"As for that," Jian Jing said, "If you can afford it, why do you need someone to send it to you?"
Kang Mucheng couldn't help laughing and replied, "I earn much more for you than I do. Well, it's just a piece of clothing, don't be stingy, just keep it if I give it to you."
Since he said so, Jian Jing couldn't bear to reject his kindness and agreed.
Kang Mucheng was visibly delighted and immediately took her to the showroom to choose styles.
The dress is so beautiful, so stunning.
Especially the roses adorned on the white veil, which were as red as blood. If you looked at them for a long time, even if you closed your eyes, the bright colors of the petals would still remain on your retina.
"Will I look good in this?" she asked Si Yingjie.
Si Yingjie answered without hesitation: "Like a little princess."
Jian Jing didn't comment, but a strange smile appeared on her lips. "I want one." She said firmly, "This skirt is perfect for me."
Her strange tone caught Kang Mucheng's attention. He asked suspiciously, "What's appropriate?"
"Of course it's a book, rose gold, so suitable." Si Yingjie answered without noticing while admiring the dress.
Kang Mucheng ignored him and continued to look at Jian Jing inquiringly.
She smiled and said nonchalantly: "It's also suitable as a commemoration of my first award. I have a feeling that I may win the award."
The doubts just now disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't help but smile: "I think so too."
After choosing the style, it was time to make an appointment and discuss in detail. They arrived early and had a relaxed time, so they directly set it for tomorrow morning.
Jian Jing had a beautiful plan and planned to visit the Louvre after finishing the work.
But she underestimated how complicated it would be to have custom-made clothes.
The designer patiently asked her about her hobbies, occupation, and the time and place of wearing the clothes, and then took extremely detailed measurements. The data was so densely packed that it was dizzying to read.
You also have to choose the fabric and the material for the decorations, such as the sewn roses. There are dozens of different choices of materials.
Jian Jing originally thought she could handle it, but she found that there was too much content to communicate and her English was totally insufficient, so she was forced to draw the card twice.
[Name: Skill Card: English (Elementary)]
[Content description: Your English level is sufficient for daily communication]
[Note: Poor communication, much trouble]
[Name: Skill Card: French (Elementary)]
[Content description: Your French level is sufficient for daily communication]
[Note: It seems you have encountered language difficulties~]
She was extremely distressed at the time. She had to draw a card just to buy clothes. English was just so-so, but what was the point of having a French card? How many times could she come to Paris
However, the next day, that little bit of resentment was turned 180 degrees upside down.
