The Reconciliation

Chapter 25: dinner

Views:

Jiang Jingbai came to discuss business, although she wanted to go to the studio after the business discussion, to visit a class, but she didn't expect that she was seen by Director Zhao before she went, and she was dragged into the box by the way.

She didn't know that Yu Xi and the others ended early and had dinner together, so it was considered a chance encounter.

What a coincidence.

Jiang Jingbai was standing in the box, Director Zhao looked around her and smiled, "Boss Jiang, sit next to Yuxi."

The traditional rules are not only about standing when taking pictures, but also about the seats at the dinner table. Yu Xi is sitting next to Ji Linfeng, and there is a seat next to Tao Yitong. It was empty, Jiang Jingbai nodded slightly, walked over to Yu Xi and sat down.

The field manager greeted Tao Yitong in a timely manner: "Miss Tao, please sit by my side."

"I heard that you and Jiang are always classmates, so let's talk about old times."

Tao Yitong smiled lightly: "Then I won't be polite."

The field manager waved his hand: "No, no, no."

Several other people at the dinner table also warmed up: "Yitong, you and Jiang are always classmates?"

"It's no wonder Mr. Jiang takes such good care of our crew. It turns out that we are all in the light of Yitong."

"Yitong, you can have a drink with Mr. Jiang later."

Tao Yitong accepted all the teasing words from the crowd, and said softly, "Okay."

Zhong Chen held his breath when he saw her Bai Lianhua's words and demeanor, Yu Xi smiled when he saw her flushed face, and said, "Go and sit at another table."

"That won't work." Zhong Chen said coldly, "I want to stay here, what will she do against you?"

Tsk, Yu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly: "She doesn't have that ability yet."

Zhong Chen wanted to say something else, but Yu Xi patted her on the shoulder: "Go."

If she faces Tao Yitong again, she will turn into a puffer fish.

Zhong Chen couldn't hold back Yu Xi, and left here sullenly.

After waiting for her to leave, Yu Xi looked away. The people on the table were still talking about the scene, and Yu Xi sat lazily, never saying anything.

Ji Linfeng, who was sitting beside her, asked, "By the way, Yitong, you said that you and Jiang were always high school classmates?"

Tao Yitong smiled lightly: "Yes."

Ji Linfeng had an expression of interest: "Then President Jiang High School must be a man of the hour."

Tao Yitong thought deeply for a few seconds: "I don't know if the wind is not the wind and the cloud, it's a character."

They are intimate and familiar, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that they have an unusual relationship. Combined with Jiang Jingbai signing Tao Yitong to her company as soon as she returned to China, and sharing a manager with Yu Xi, the most important thing is that she used to only play a supporting role. , now playing the second female role, everyone is foolish if they can't see the relationship between them.

But there are no fools in this circle, so all kinds of flattery followed closely.

Yu Xi's temples twitched when she heard these unnutritious nonsense, she simply lowered her head and fiddled with her mobile phone, checking the WeChat group for a while, checking fans' rainbow farts on Weibo, and finally sending a message to Hu Xiaojing .

—Quickly, take a few photos of my goddaughter and show me them in high-definition.

Hu Xiaojing replied at the other end: Can you not talk like a hooligan

Yuxi replied with a string of ellipses, and Hu Xiaojing sent her several photos in a row. The pink and tender balls I saw before had grown a little, the facial features were slightly outlined, and the skin was as white and tender as cream. Wearing a red hat, a pair of big black eyes, very beautiful, Yu Xi looked at the photo and the unhappiness just disappeared in her heart, she enlarged the photo, and the screen was full of smiling faces of children.

"Is it Xiaojing's child?"

Suddenly there was a voice beside him, Yu Xi looked up in surprise, and saw Jiang Jingbai looking at him.

Everyone at the dinner table was talking separately, and some girls even held Tao Yitong's elder sister and sister short, but no one paid attention to them, Yu Xi twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Mmm."

"Quite cute."

Yu Xi still bowed her head and didn't speak. Jiang Jingbai looked sideways at the swirls on top of her hair. She didn't know what she was thinking for a while, but the few topics on her lips were pressed back, and finally she just pursed her lips.

Soon the door of the box was opened again, and Director Zhao came in with the producer.

"Everyone is here."

Director Zhao sat opposite Yu Xi: "Before we eat, should we ask Mr. Jiang to say a few words?"

Everyone at the dinner table looked at Jiang Jingbai, she pursed her lips and said softly, "Let's eat."

After two seconds of embarrassment at the scene, the producer smiled and said, "Eat, eat."

The girl sitting next to Tao Yitong whispered, "Mr. Jiang always talks so little?"

Tao Yitong thought for a few seconds and answered her: "No."

"It used to be less."

Questioning girl: …

The dinner table is also called the wine table culture. A lot of business is negotiated in the wine glass. Yu Xi has never liked to drink, and she rarely participated in such reunions before. In addition, she had a lot of announcements and busy activities at that time, and all investors held her hands. It doesn't matter if she doesn't participate in the reunion, as long as the contract can be signed, there are only a handful of dinner parties she attends.

But—that was all in the past.

Now it's not her turn to put on airs.

Bai Yutang's words are still fresh in her memory. Now is not the time for her to choose a script, but to consider whether there is a film to shoot. If it is not because of the company's investment this time, she is afraid that she will still be rejected It's sealed.

"Sister Xi, don't you respect President Jiang?"

Yu Xi's thoughts were interrupted by Ji Linfeng, she looked to the side, not only Ji Linfeng, but also other people looked at her as if nothing, at this wine table, although Director Zhao had the most power to speak, but among the actors, there was still She has the most weight, and there are rules for toasting. She didn't move first, and the others could only watch, that's why Ji Linfeng said so much.

Yu Xi nodded, raised his cup and smiled at Jiang Jing next to him: "Boss Jiang, thank you for giving me this opportunity, I would like to toast you."

Jiang Jingbai didn't seem to expect that she would take the initiative to toast, her eyes were filled with astonishment, she quickly regained her senses, and raised her lips: "Okay."

As she spoke, she picked up her cup and touched Yu Xi lightly, making a crisp sound. The corners of Jiang Jingbai's lips raised slightly, watching Yu Xi look up to drink, the swan neck was perfectly curved, and the collarbone was a little exposed On the outside, small and delicate, beautiful and charming eyes.

Jiang Jingbai felt that she was already slightly drunk before drinking.

She picked up the glass to drink after watching Yu Xi finish drinking.

Immediately there was a scene on the dinner table: "Mr. Jiang is a good drinker!"

"Mr. Jiang, I offer you a toast."

Jiang Jingbai put down the glass, raised her head with a calm expression, and smiled at the people who came up to toast: "Sorry, I can't drink enough, I can only have one drink."

Everyone: ...

It was the producer who took the lead to break the embarrassment: "Then eat, if you don't drink, let's eat."

The dinner table was noisy again.

Tao Yitong sat beside Jiang Jingbai, but she didn't toast, and she didn't speak in private. The girl next to her asked about Jiang Jingbai's news from time to time, and she replied frankly.

"That's right, many people chased after Jingbai in high school."

"Of course it's hard to chase."

Ji Linfeng became interested: "So President Jiang is in love in high school?"

Yu Xi found that he was particularly interested in Jiang Jingbai.

Tao Yitong thought for a while: "Of course there are."

Everyone looked at her unanimously, with gossip in their eyes, Jiang Jingbai was sitting next to her, picking up the dishes with chopsticks, with a tense side face, and her tone was a little unhappy: "Yitong."

Her voice was clear, and when she tilted her head, her expression was slightly cold, with a hint of displeasure. Although the expression on her face was still the same as before, her aura suddenly cooled down.

Tao Yitong smiled: "Okay, don't always think about asking people about their privacy, it's better to talk about your affairs."

"Ji Linfeng, tell me first, you were the most diligent in asking just now."

Knowing that she was changing the subject, Ji Linfeng continued: "Okay, if you have any questions, please let us know!"

Everyone was amused by his face about to sacrifice heroically, and the noisy atmosphere resumed at the dinner table.

Ji Linfeng was caught and questioned severely, and he took the initiative to betray the people around him: "Okay, don't ask me anymore, it's Sister Xi's turn!"

Yu Xi suddenly heard her name, raised her head, and saw everyone looking at her, she pursed her lips: "What are you asking?"

With a cold expression, an unnaturally haughty posture, bright eyes that seem to be chilling, the other actors at the dinner table seem to retreat when they see her gaze, not to mention asking anything, they don't dare to talk to her now.

Sitting next to her, Ji Linfeng thought for a while and said, "Then ask the simplest question."

Tao Yitong answered: "Easiest? Then let me ask, Yu Xi, will you turn back?"

Yu Xi looked up at her when she heard her question, Tao Yitong still had a slight smile on her face, her gaze was gentle, Yu Xi pursed her lips and pinched her chopsticks, if this question was asked by someone else, she would say without hesitation, of course not. Yes, don't talk about turning back, she is in a good mood if she doesn't look back and step on her feet.

But it happened that Tao Yitong asked her this question.

As for who asked her why, Yu Xi knew it well.

Embracing the mentality that I am uncomfortable and everyone should not want to be comfortable, Yu Xi put down her chopsticks, raised her lips, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "If the grass is beautiful and delicious, of course I will eat it."

"Could Miss Tao spit out the meat that reaches her mouth?"

Everyone laughed out loud when they heard her rhetorical question, and Ji Linfeng covered his chest: "Sister Xi, you can speak yellow accent!"

Yu Xi turned her head: "Don't worry, I won't open it to you."

The dinner table was full of laughter, and Ji Linfeng's exaggerated expression of injury added to the sense of acting. Seeing that everyone quickly passed this innocuous topic, Yu Xi continued to eat.

Jiang Jingbai next to her kept pinching her chopsticks tightly when she heard Tao Yitong's question, and she didn't notice the slight pain in her fingertips. The veins on the back of her hands were raised, her whole body was tense, and her expression was tense.

There was no sound around me for a moment.

She looked at Yu Xi from the corner of her eye, and saw her sideways face with a smile that was not a smile, and heard a brisk answer in her ear: "If the grass is beautiful and delicious, of course I will eat it."

The high-hanging heart slowly fell.

Jiang Jingbai lowered her head and took out her phone from her pocket without turning on the screen saver. Her facial features were clearly displayed on the black screen. She subconsciously brushed her bangs with her right hand, revealing her beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows. Her tense face showed signs of loosening. The horns are slightly raised and bent into an arc, and the expression is no longer rigid.

She stared at the phone left and right for a few seconds, circling a question in her mind.

This kind of her—is she pretty
