The manager of the marketing department felt that the atmosphere in the room was weird, and Wang Chen's complexion was not good, so he hurriedly urged with a smile: "Let's go to dinner first, and we can talk slowly if we have anything to say."
"That's right, let's eat first," Wang Chen's manager smoothed things over, "Everyone is tired after a day of filming."
Several people surrounded Wang Chen and walked out, but how could Wang Chen be in the mood to eat? When he was complacent about winning the VI endorsement for himself, Yin Chang actually jumped directly to get a real luxury endorsement invitation, which he felt was too unreal.
But he is the "protagonist" tonight, and he has to go to the banquet.
At the dinner table, everyone in the VI Huaguo Branch was congratulating him, including the supporting stars, but Wang Chen's attention was always on Yin Chang and Luka who were opposite.
That's right, Luka sat side by side with Yin Chang at the dinner table, and the two had a great conversation, and what Wang Chen couldn't understand was what they talked about...
From the beginning to the end, the art director of Rao Shizi never looked at him, the real "winner".
And the most irritating thing was, when everyone finished their meal and were about to leave the banquet, Yin Chang got up and walked over, and said to him, "Congratulations."
Wang Chen: "..." Congratulations to your sister, go away! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻
On the way back, Yin Chang asked Lu Lingjuan with a puzzled look: "Didn't that Wang Chen get VI's endorsement? Why do you feel that he is very unhappy?"
Lu Lingjuan: "Pfft... are you really puzzled or are you just pretending to be stupid?"
Yin Chang: "???"
Seeing that he was really dazed, Lu Lingjuan explained: "Although Wang Chen won, you got a higher-level BG endorsement invitation than him—the endorsement of that brand is usually only available to celebrities like your father." — so I guess he might be upset."
Yao Manhuai, who was sitting in front, was also laughing. It turned out that the child didn't know that he was favored by the god of luck.
Yin Chang pondered for a moment and then asked: "If I don't come today, Wang Chen won't be able to get BG's endorsement, why is he upset?"
Lu Lingjuan choked... It seemed to be the reason.
Yao Manhuai folded his arms and looked forward, analyzing: "He may regard you as a competitor."
Yin Chang: "...Really?" That's why he speaks ill of himself behind his back and exalts himself by belittling his opponent? This approach is not very manly.
Yao Manhuai: "But I think today's situation is just right. He gets VI with his ability, and you get BG with your strength. It's a win-win situation. If you snatch his endorsement, our brokerage company will get along with each other in the future. More trouble."
Yin Chang nodded in understanding: "Well..."
Yao Manhuai thought that Yin Chang and Wang Chen were about the same age and debut time, so they would inevitably meet each other in the future, so he asked, "You met Wang Chen today, what do you think of him?"
Yin Chang thought for a while: "Are you telling the truth?"
Yao Manhuai: "Of course, everyone in the car is our own, so we can say whatever we want."
Yin Chang frowned, and thought about it: "He... is still a bit different from the photo. I didn't recognize him at all when I saw him today."
Yao Manhuai: "..."
Lu Lingjuan: "..."
The two said in unison: "This kind of thing must not be said in front of him in the future!!"
Lu Lingjuan also said anxiously: "It's not just him! From now on, you can't say 'photographing' to any celebrity! No matter how big the gap is, you have to be calm! Otherwise, it's easy to offend people!"
Yin Chang was speechless: "I know... Didn't you ask me to say this?"
It's not that he has no emotional intelligence, of course he wouldn't say that outside.
***
After the watch endorsement incident passed, Yin Chang resumed his days of taking fashion shoots, magazine photography, and going to the company to clock in and attend classes.
When he was free, he also asked Mr. Lin about Shao Junling's condition. He heard that the child hadn't caused any trouble recently, and he obediently made up lessons every day, and got along well with his classmates. Including that Xue Ziwen, the two have already shaken hands and made peace.
Yin Chang was relieved when he learned about it. It seems that the small cake he asked Shao Junling to bring had played a little role.
This morning, Yin Chang received another message from Fiona, saying that she had cleaned up her foreign house inside and out, covered it with a dust cloth, and made arrangements for it to be unoccupied for a long time, and she could come here anytime recently.
Yin Chang was very happy, but he suddenly thought that there are only two bedrooms in the Huaihe apartment, and it is still a problem where Fiona will live when she comes.
He was afraid of trouble, and didn't bother to change houses, so he asked the security guard if there were any vacant houses for rent in the same community. But the security guard regretfully told him no. Most of the owners of Huaihe apartments are not short of money. In addition, the community attaches great importance to privacy. Many owners would rather leave the house empty and put furniture there than lend it out.
Yin Chang went home and looked around again. In fact, this house is not small. The master bedroom of Yin Dong alone is nearly a hundred square meters because it is connected to the open cloakroom and study.
Yin Chang measured the size of the study room, and found that by adjusting the position of the nanmu desk, a single bed could barely be placed, allowing Shao Junling who came home occasionally to live here first, and Fiona to live in the second bedroom.
The only disadvantage is that there is no door in the study room, and it faces the big bed in the master bedroom, so there is no privacy space at all. Yin Chang felt that the two of them might feel a little uncomfortable getting along.
But he thought that Shao Junling was living on campus now, even if he had promised to let him go to school after he solved the problem of partial subjects, the process would take at least a year. If Shao Junling only came back every half a month, it would not be hard to bear.
Right now, this is the only way to temporarily solve the problem, and when Shao Junling starts to go to school, or when he grows older and it becomes inconvenient, he can think of other solutions.
After making the decision, Yin Chang took the time to pack and seal up the things in the study. After all, there were Yin Dong's belongings in the study, so it was not easy for Shao Junling to live there.
Seeing Yin Dong's books, scripts, and awards, Yin Chang is always fascinated. Although it has been more than four months since his father's plane crash, he still feels sad when thinking about it.
Yin Dong once told him that he destroyed all things related to his mother because he was afraid of seeing things and thinking about feelings... Even if it might be a lie to deceive him, he fully understands that feeling and approach at this moment.
In order to reduce the sadness caused by this process, Yin Chang can only speed up the movements of his hands, try not to look through them, and don't think about them.
But when tidying up one of Yin Dong's drawers, an envelope accidentally fell out of a notepad.
Yin Chang picked up the envelope, and seeing the words "Jingxue Welfare Institute" written on it, he couldn't help being taken aback.
The envelope was opened, and there was a photo inside. Yin Chang took it out and saw that it was a child about two or three years old.
The child in the photo was smiling, Yin Chang stared at it for a while, and recognized that it was Shao Junling.
He turned it over again, and saw two lines written on the back of the photo—
Shao Jun
December 29, 200X
Shao Jun? Not Shao Junling
Yin Chang carefully looked at the photo again and was sure that it was Shao Junling. And on the day he accompanied Yao Manhuai to register for adoption, he had read Shao Junling's information, and the string of dates was Shao Junling's date of birth.
What's the matter, Shao Junling still has a former name
After the news broke, Yao Manhuai and Lawyer Wang went to many places to investigate and investigate, and they also went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to inquire. They said that the name "Shao Junling" was randomly selected by the Civil Affairs Bureau system, so they couldn't find out that the child was five years old. previous background experience.
Yin Chang's eyes froze, and he guessed at the time that they couldn't find out Shao Junling's background, maybe Yin Dong had done something to deal with it. Yin Dong wanted to cover up Shao Junling's past. After all, he and Shao Junling did a paternity test. If the child's origin is unknown, How did Yin Dong know of his existence
The appearance of this photo also completely confirmed Yin Chang's conjecture. He looked at the envelope again. There was no postmark on it, and there was no signature of the sender, indicating that someone handed this letter to Yin Dong... That person, probably Also an insider.
But when the public opinion was raging, why didn't this person stand up
Yin Chang remembered the notepad where the envelope was hidden, and quickly picked it up and looked through it.
Most of it is Yin Dong's work handwriting, until the word "Jingxue" appears at the bottom of one of the pages, it is estimated that the envelope fell out of this page.
Yin Chang saw that there were only two phone numbers on it, and the one with the prefix "Jingxue" was the phone number of the orphanage, so he searched the Internet to confirm.
There is another string - "Punishment: 138XXXXXXXX"
Yin Chang hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and called with his mobile phone.
However, the other person actually reminded him that the number he dialed was an empty number...
Yin Chang was startled, and hung up in frustration.
After that, no matter how much he searched, he couldn't find any information related to Shao Junling.
This incident disturbed Yin Chang. Even though Shao Junling was confirmed to be Yin Dong's illegitimate son, he was still very concerned about why Yin Dong wanted to cover up the other party's past.
What happened to Shao Junling? Who is his mother? Did he really wander
…
On the weekend, Shao Junling went home.
Yin Chang told him in advance that a nanny aunt who has been taking care of him is about to return from abroad and will live here to take care of their daily life in the future.
Shao Junling seemed a little confused when he heard that, but when Yin Chang mentioned that the other party would cook all kinds of delicacies for them, his eyes lit up and he nodded immediately.
Yin Chang: "However, that aunt may want to sleep in your current room after she comes over, and you have less time to come back, so I want you to move to the study first—the one next to my bedroom, is that okay? ?”
Yin Chang said while showing him the finished study room, where a brand new single bed had already been placed.
Shao Junling glanced in, then turned his head to look at Yin Chang's bedroom, and nodded with a blushing face.
Yin Chang said: "There is no door here for the time being, if you feel uncomfortable, I can find someone to install a curtain or something."
Shao Junling shook his head quickly after hearing this.
Yin Chang frowned: "Speak, don't keep nodding and shaking your head."
Shao Junling's voice was muffled: "No... I'm not used to it."
Yin Chang: "..." He said in his heart that if you can get used to it, I might not get used to it, but right now it's hard to say anything, so he can only say, "We'll see when the time comes."
After the explanation, Yin Chang booked a flight ticket for Fiona to return to China.
After dinner that night, the two brothers did some things on their own. At bedtime, Yin Chang said good night to Shao Junling and got up to go to bed.
The bathroom in the master bedroom is separated by glass. When Yin Chang was washing in it, he saw Shao Junling dragging his pillow and quilt into the study.
"You..." Yin Chang came out with a toothbrush in his mouth, and said in a daze, "What are you doing?"
Shao Junling stopped in his tracks and said solemnly, "Sleep here."

On the way back, Wang Chen, who was delirious with anger, said to his agent, "You immediately find an English teacher tonight!"
broker:"???"
Wang Chen: "I want to learn English! I want to be able to speak English tomorrow!" (Can't lose to Yin Chang)
Manager: "You said the same thing three years ago, but after studying for three days, you cried and threw away the book and went to Korea."
Wang Chen: "Shut up!" (╰皮╯)

Yin Chang pointed to the study room: "You will sleep here from now on."
Shao Junling: I can watch his brother more closely, it's awesome! o(￣ヘ￣o)
