Mu Xiulun was late.
As an adult with a strong sense of time, Mu Xiulun arranged his timetable extremely precisely, and anything that was a minute overdue would disrupt his work plan. It's a pity that there are always all kinds of uncontrollable things in this world. A car accident happened on the highway, which caused him to be late for a date with Su Jin by a full twenty minutes.
It was rare for Mu Xiulun to feel a bit of guilt, but before he got out of the elevator, the guilt disappeared completely, as if the bubbles rising from the bottom of the water were digested by themselves before they even surfaced.
The revolving viewing restaurant adopts a reservation system, and only members can enter. As soon as the elevator door opened, the waiter who was waiting here immediately greeted him, and respectfully led Mu Xiulun towards the table he had reserved in advance.
"Is Su Jin here?" Mu Xiulun asked.
"Miss Su has arrived."
Su Jin is a popular little flower who can rank among the top 3 in terms of traffic, with a pure and sweet image. However, this little flower in the entertainment industry has a secret private meeting with the son of a rich man here. If it gets out, how many fans will cry and go blind. Fortunately, the waiters here have long been used to this kind of thing, so they naturally don't talk too much.
The seat reserved by the secretary was right next to the floor-to-ceiling windows. The sofa seat was soft and comfortable, surrounded by a circle of patchwork green plants, which used a natural barrier to separate the sight of others.
Passing through the winding and deep path and turning the last bend, the scene in front of me suddenly became clear.
After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, Mu Xiulun paused and froze.
Outside the panoramic window, night has quietly descended on the city. The girl was sitting in a gauze skirt woven by stars, resting her chin on one hand, looking bored at the night scene outside the window. Pearls are hanging by the ears, diamonds are adorning the neck, and the short hair is flowing with a little silver light, shining brightly between glances. The lights of Wanjia were trampled under her feet, but they were not as good as a speck of dust on the toe of her shoes.
Although she was facing out of the window, she uttered a series of dish names fluently, making the waiters beside her flustered.
I only heard her say: "Are there any cuts for the Australian lobsters brought in by air? Choose the best one and bring me one. Don't fool me with five or six abalones. Pick the biggest one and get four first. Icelandic oysters Let’s have a dozen, Norwegian salmon for two, as for the king crab and deep-sea shrimp, let’s see what to match. They’re all the most expensive ones—we, Mr. Mu, have plenty of money.”
Mu Xiulun: "..."
...Su Jin today, something seems wrong
Mu Xiulun didn't have time to think about it, the waiter had already noticed his arrival, and hurriedly bent down halfway to say hello to him.
Su Jin who was sitting by the window also turned her head and looked at him.
Strangely, there was a completely unfamiliar sense of scrutiny in the girl's eyes, as if she was seeing Mu Xiulun for the first time, observing him slowly and inch by inch from bottom to top.
At that moment, Mu Xiulun almost suspected that the person sitting in front of him was another person - but looking carefully, it was clearly still Su Jin's appearance.
"Long time no see," the girl rolled her eyes and smiled like a peach blossom swaying in the wind, "Mr. Mu."
"It's been a long time, I've been busy recently." Mu Xiulun suppressed the feeling of disobedience in his heart, and sat down opposite Su Jin. He carefully observed his "girlfriend" whom he hadn't seen for more than a month, and couldn't help thinking: How come Su Jin has changed so much just by changing her hairstyle
How could he have guessed that the girl sitting opposite him, from the core to the shell, has long been replaced by another person.
If you just look at it from the outside, Mu Xiulun's looks are very attractive even in the entertainment industry. He has regular and handsome features, broad shoulders and long legs, and the tailor-made suit highlights his aura. Those who are not familiar with him will think that he is a bit cold and arrogant, and he is exactly the type of "dominant president" that countless little girls flock to.
Of course, in Su Jishi's eyes, this is just a trash guy who looks like a dog and tries to take advantage of his sister.
The geological hammer hidden in the suspenders is about to move. If he dares to take a step beyond the threshold, Su Jishi promises to use the hammer to pry his head open!
…
The carefully cooked seafood was served on the table one by one, and the red wine in the goblet exuded an attractive aroma, but the people sitting on both sides of the table did not have the thought of moving their chopsticks.
The two looked at each other from a distance across the dining table, one was handsome and mature, the other was sweet and gentle, no matter who looked at them, they were a well-matched young couple.
After the dishes were served, the waiter quietly retreated, leaving room for them.
After being silent for half a minute, Mu Xiulun finally said, "Miss Su, my time is precious, so let's get straight to the point."
"Just right, my time is also very precious." Su Jishi said with a smile, "If Mr. Mu has anything to say, just say it."
"..." Mu Xiulun cleared his throat, "In the past three years, Ms. Su and I have cooperated very smoothly. Now that the contract expires, we should consider renewing the contract."
I'm coming! Sure enough, it came!
Su Jishi kept his expression on the surface, but the hand under the dining table had already touched the hard geological hammer in the suspenders.
This flat-mouthed geological hammer is her first-class comrade-in-arms, accompanying her on the mountain of swords and the sea of fire, and I don't know how many times she has been out in the wild. When she hits it with a hammer, even igneous rocks will crack.
Mu Xiulun suddenly felt a chill down his back, and shivered inexplicably. But he didn't care, but took out the contract from his briefcase, and pushed it in front of Su Jishi calmly.
The contract has more than a dozen pages. Mu Xiulun has already signed the party A column, and the party B column is still empty, waiting for Su Jishi to write.
It looks... pretty normal
Su Jishi was a little curious and involuntarily accepted the contract.
The first few pages were full of complicated cooperation terms. Su Jishi glanced at them briefly, and quickly turned to the key link at the back—the rights and obligations of both parties.
— Clause 8.1.1 [Party A shall provide Party B with five or more film and television cooperation projects (level A) and one or more variety show cooperation projects (level S) every quarter, as well as other fashion resources and media exposure; Party B encounters public opinion In case of risk, Party A needs to hire a professional public relations team for Party B to maintain the image of Party B]
—Clause 8.1.2 [Both Party A and Party B are a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship, and shall not disclose their mutual relationship to the public (except relatives and friends)]
— Clause 8.1.3 [When Party A has social needs, Party B needs to participate in Party A’s social activities as a girlfriend, and cooperate with Party A’s all loving behaviors, and shall not refuse]
—Clause 8.1.4 [Party B needs to make appointments with Party A three times a month] is completely crossed out and replaced with [Depending on Party A's work schedule, Party B needs to make an appointment with Party A once a month].
— Clause 8.1.5 [The content of the date is specified by Party A, including but not limited to holding hands, hugging, kissing, and staying overnight. Party B is not allowed to raise objections], [kiss, stay overnight] have been crossed out.
Su Jishi: "..."
Su Jishi: "..."
Su Jishi: "..."
She looked up from the contract suspiciously, and looked at Mu Xiulun who was sitting opposite.
Is this really a nurturing contract
Although Su Jishi had never met other "financial owners", she could tell through common sense that a normal financial owner would not give such a generous contract. In this contract, Su Jin took advantage of everything, and Mu Xiulun contributed money and efforts, and only got a vase girlfriend.
Other female stars are looking for a "godfather" when they look for a sponsor, but Mu Xiulun is simply a real father who came to their door - if she wasn't absolutely sure that her father was still alive, she would have doubted whether Mu Xiulun was her biological father. Father's reincarnated soul boy.
Su Jishi pointed to the lines that were crossed out and asked, "These are...?"
Mu Xiulun said: "Those are lawyers' own ideas, which are not beneficial to our cooperation, so I deleted them." The most important thing is that too much physical contact will make the woman have unrealistic fantasies about him, so He absolutely cannot stay.
Su Jishi was completely unaware of his narcissistic thoughts, and secretly praised him in his heart—he is really a gentleman.
The girl's hands, which were hidden under the table, finally moved away from the hammer. She pushed back the contract and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mu, for your kindness, but I can't accept this contract."
"Why?" Mu Xiulun was very surprised. The two have worked together for three years without any mistakes. She will definitely sign this kind of mutually beneficial new contract. "Aren't you satisfied with these terms?"
"If you want to change the terms, then you can ask your agent to contact my lawyer." He thought for a while, and then added, "The resources I listed are considered very favorable conditions in the whole circle. .You don’t have much room to bargain.”
"No." Su Jishi didn't trust him, and of course he wouldn't tell him his true identity. She answered lightly, "My contract with the agency expires in just over a year. I don't want to have too much exposure in the coming time—I'm leaving the entertainment industry."
Mu Xiulun: "..." This answer was beyond his expectation.
Is there any rising traffic artist who would think too much exposure? She is still so young, and she wants to quit the circle
Mu Xiulun said bluntly: "You are a public figure, and you will be chased by flashing lights after you retire."
Su Jishi raised his eyebrows: "It's okay, I can study abroad."
Her tone is so solemn, it can be seen that it has been planned for a long time. Seeing that she had made up her mind to go, Mu Xiulun didn't talk nonsense, and simply took back the contract - Su Jin could no longer be his shield girlfriend, he had to find a new one as soon as possible.
But where can I find a fake girlfriend like Su Jin who is quiet, well-behaved, and doesn't make trouble
※
The meal was sloppy, and neither of them moved their chopsticks much.
It's just that Mu Xiulun has no appetite, but Su Jishi really wants to eat it from the bottom of her heart—but when she thinks about how long it will take to go back on the treadmill to consume all the calories in a bite of lobster meat, she honestly shuts up.
Su Jishi felt tormented looking at this table of delicacies that couldn't fit into his stomach. She now misses the life half a month ago very much. At that time, no one cared about her walking, sitting, lying and grooming posture. She could not wash her hair for a week, just nestled on the sofa and ate junk food while writing reports. Unlike now, I still have to worry about fifty or one hundred calories.
According to the contract, each date between the two should last for more than two hours.
Su Jishi was so bored that he took out his phone to poke.
Every celebrity has two mobile phones, so does Su Jin, who is a popular streamer. One is a private number and the other is for business contacts. When Su Jin left, she only took her personal mobile phone with her, and the other work mobile phone has now fallen into Su Jishi's hands.
Fortunately, this phone has face recognition. If it uses fingerprint recognition and pupil recognition, then Su Jishi will be exposed. After all, even twins have unique fingerprints and pupils.
Mu Xiulun suddenly said: "We've known each other for so long, but I still don't have Miss Su's contact information."
After the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly felt that he was fascinated by ghosts. When he first signed the contract three years ago, he didn't want to have too much involvement with Su Jin, and he was afraid of losing his phone and leaking information, so he didn't ask for Su Jin's phone number and WeChat number. Before each "date", the secretary would notify Su Jin's manager in advance.
Who would have thought... On the last day of the end of the contract, Mu Xiulun wanted to keep her name by his side.
Su Jishi didn't care. She had a good impression of this father-in-law, and thinking of "multiple friends, multiple paths", she generously told the man her work mobile phone number, and even initiated a WeChat friend application.
Mu Xiulun looked at the phone: "Why is your WeChat called 'Dr. Su'?"
"..."
Xiaohua Su Jin's work WeChat is originally a simple "Su Jin". But after Su Jishi got it, he felt that it was awkward to bear this name, so he simply changed it to "Dr. Su". "Dr" is the abbreviation of "Doctor". In addition to the meaning of "doctor" that elementary school students know, it is also the title of doctor.
Su Jishi naturally talked nonsense: "It's that proverb, 'An apple a day keeps the doctor away'. I love apples, so I named myself Dr. Su."
The cause and effect have no logical relationship at all, but Mu Xiulun actually nodded, apparently approving the title.
It's a pity that Su Jishi didn't know, because of her casual nonsense, Mu Xiulun would call her "Little Apple" for a long, long time in the future.
…
The two were talking, when suddenly a sudden sound of footsteps came from the passage. The sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the ground was the first to fill the eardrums. The sharp heels hit the floor like a magic sound piercing the ears, which could not be ignored at all. Immediately afterwards, the sound of another group of heavy leather shoes followed. Every time he took a step, the owner of the leather shoes would let out a breath of foul air, accompanied by the female partner's pretentiously seductive laughter, which was transmitted to the ears of the "little lover" at the dining table.
Su Ji was taken aback. They were located in a relatively remote corner of the restaurant. How could there be passers-by passing by
Looking at Mu Xiulun again, the man's face was cold, and he put down the tableware in his hand - judging from his expression, he could already recognize the identities of these two unexpected guests.
Just as he expected, a few seconds later, a plump middle-aged man with a charming young girl in his arms appeared in front of them.
The middle-aged man was short and fat. He looked to be in his early fifties, but his hairline had receded to the back of his head. He was wearing a brown casual suit with stripes, and the neckline and cuffs were stuffed full, as if if he breathed more, the suit would be torn.
As for the young girl who was snuggling in his arms, she looked only twenty-one or twenty-two years old, with exquisite makeup, a hot figure, and a worldly sophistication on her face that was incompatible with her age. She was clearly leaning on the middle-aged man's shoulder, but her eyes were like hooks, winking at Mu Xiulun.
The middle-aged man stood by the table with his round belly, waiting for Mu Xiulun to take the initiative to say hello to him.
It's a pity that Mu Xiulun didn't take him seriously. The middle-aged man was left alone for a long time, and he lost face, so he could only hold back his strength and said, "Yo, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Huron here." " His eyes fell on Su Jishi who was on the side, as if he had just seen her just now, and he said exaggeratedly, "Dating with Xiaojin? Second uncle didn't bother you, did he?"
Mu Xiulun didn't get up, but nodded slightly: "I didn't expect to meet my second uncle here."
Said to be the second uncle, but in fact the middle-aged man is a distant relative of her adoptive mother. He used his adoptive mother's name to find a job in the EP Mining Group. Now he has two iron mines under his name and has considerable assets. Because the adoptive mother hated Mu Xiulun, even these relatives looked down on him, and often stumbling him in the group.
But this time, it was the second uncle who heard that Mu Xiulun would have a flirt here, so he hurriedly brought his most beloved little girlfriend over to show his prestige.
The fact that Mu Xiulun took care of Su Jin is a well-known gossip in the family. The second uncle had seen Su Jin on TV, how could he have thought that Su Jin was even more dazzling than in the advertisement
If the one on TV is a warm and pleasant white peach, then the one who appears at the dining table is a swaying red cherry. She has the same facial features, but she is so beautiful... so beautiful , Let the second uncle's heart itch.
He didn't even think about avoiding suspicion, a pair of squinting mung bean eyes stuck to Su Jishi's body, as if he wanted to tear off the dress on her body with his eyes.
The sticky and greasy feeling reminded Su Jishi of the swamp he had encountered in the wild—the swamp itself was smelly and dirty, and he tried to pull others down as well, so it would be better to get a fishy body.
Su Jishi was stared at by such offensive eyes, instead of dodging, he raised his chin and stared straight back.
—Spicy enough, spicy enough!
The second uncle was stared at by that gaze, as if a ball of fire was burning in his internal organs, spreading everywhere, from top to bottom, burning his whole body dry. At this moment, how could he care about the charming little girlfriend in his arms!
Anyway, Su Jin was taken care of by Mu Xiulun, isn't it just money, what Mu Xiulun can give, so can he! Mu Xiulun is just an unfavored adopted son, how much money can the broken non-ferrous rare earth company make? It doesn't look like he has two iron mines under his name, and they are engaged in national business. Once in and out, the money that goes into his pocket is enough for ordinary people to fight for ten lifetimes!
Besides, Mu Xiulun has been entrusting Su Jin for three years, counting the days, he should be tired of it.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, as if he had seen Su Jin obediently lying on his bed, letting him get whatever he wanted.
"Xiao Jin..." He was shameless, and actually poked a corner in front of Mu Xiulun, "You have been with Huron for so many years, have you ever thought about taking another step up and changing to a better platform? Of course , A good platform, you have to have the Dongfeng to send you up..." The words clearly implied that he is Su Jin's future "Dongfeng", as long as Su Jin obediently follows him, what do you want
Before he finished speaking, his little girlfriend's face turned pale. She just caught this big fish! Although everyone else caught koi, she was the only one who caught a fat fish, but it was better than those little sisters who didn't even catch loach! She hasn't had a good life for a few days, and she hasn't had a couple of sips of fish soup, but the benefactor has taken aim at the newcomer? ... No, there are no doors!
She hurriedly embraced the middle-aged man's arm, and acted like a baby desperately: "Husband~~~"
However, the middle-aged man raised his hand, pulled his arm out, and said in a cold tone never before: "What's 'husband'? You can call 'husband' too?" The girl bit her lower lip aggrievedly, There are tears in the corners of his eyes, but he has already scolded in his heart—Fatty man, that's not what you said in bed last night!
The second uncle's small eyes were fixed on Su Jin's face. From his point of view, if someone could call him "husband", then the candidate must be a beauty like Su Jin!
How could Mu Xiulun endure his girlfriend being offended like this? He frowned and looked at this cheap second uncle, and was about to yell at him, but before he could say anything, suddenly his calf hurt - under the cover of the tablecloth, Su Jishi actually kicked him hard!
Immediately afterwards, the stiletto heels firmly stepped on his leather shoes, and he turned left and right angrily—don't think about it, when he goes home tonight, there will definitely be a bruise on his feet.
Mu Xiulun snorted, resisted the pain on his feet, and looked at the flower vase girlfriend sitting opposite him.
Su Jishi propped his elbows on the dining table, and he still had that sweet smile on his face, and his eyes sparkled like Qiuhong.
"This... second uncle." She didn't know his last name, so she simply called him second uncle. She asked with a smile, "I wonder if the second uncle will live a long life this year?"
She deliberately bit down on the word "longevity".
The second uncle heard that her tone was wrong, and was extremely unhappy: "What's 'longevity'? I'm only fifty-two years old!"
Su Jishi: "Fifty-two years old? Unfortunately, I'm only twenty-six."
Second uncle: "Why, do you think I'm old? Let me tell you, a girl in her twenties like you doesn't know much. A man in his fifties is at his most attractive when he has life experiences and What's wrong with being able to provide you with a good life?"
Su Jishi believes that when Mu Xiulun is fifty-two years old, he will be a charming mature man; but this fat uncle, from the thinning hair on the top of his head to the general's belly with a sagging belt, there is nothing in his body that can match the "charm" "The two words are related, it is purely because I feel too good about myself.
Su Jishi shook his head, and gave an unexpected answer: "Sorry, I think you are too young."
Second Uncle: "...???"
Su Jishi smiled slightly: "I think you are too young. If you live to be ninety years old this year, I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau with you without further ado. It is best if you suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure, fatty liver, stroke, hemiplegia, and Alzheimer's." Haimo, as soon as I pass through the door and you kick your legs, isn't your ten thousand wealth all mine?"
Second Uncle: "...!!!"
The girl raised the corner of her mouth, her fan-like eyelashes covered the sarcasm in her eyes, and she didn't take the second uncle into her eyes at all: "You are really wronged to look for me, I advise you to continue looking, the twenty-six-year-old What is it, twenty, eighteen, sixteen... Work hard, you will find an heir to the inheritance one day."
Mu Xiulun couldn't bear it anymore, turned his head, and coughed to cover his laughter.
How did he never know that Su Jin had such a glib side? She seemed to be a different person today, with a big momentum, showing a domineering character that was completely different from the screen. What kind of gentle dodder is this? It is obviously an overlord flower that can eat human bones!
The second uncle was so angry that his fat body trembled wildly, and he stretched out his stubby fingers to point at Su Jishi's nose.
"Su Jin, good, good, good! Do you think Mu Xiulun can protect you for the rest of your life? Don't think that you are a popular little flower, I can't do anything to you! Believe it or not, let me say a word, next month, all of you Ads are going to disappear from public view?"
These words are completely bluffing. Although EP Mining Group is rich, this second uncle is just a small high-level executive in the corner. He doesn't have that much energy at all to make popular artists disappear from public view. The moment he got angry, he wanted to frighten her severely and dampen her spirit.
Unexpectedly, Su Jishi was eager to disappear from the public eye, so she simply said: "Okay, I have three billion in liquidated damages, if you can really make up for the three billion, I promise to hang up your photo when I get home." On the wall, there are three incense sticks a day! I will light a lotus lantern for you on the Hungry Ghost Festival, and I will send you winter clothes on the Qingming Festival. What do you think?"
Second Uncle: "You you you you you you..." Even if he didn't have a heart attack, he would have a heart attack now. The little girlfriend on the side hurriedly posted it to help him get along.
The other party was furious, but Su Jishi had no fear. A rich person like this is concerned about face, and will not tear his face in public, even if he really does it... The geological hammer in her suspenders has not been used today.
Mu Xiulun watched such a good show beside him for so long, he couldn't continue enjoying it.
He cleared his throat and pretended to say, "Okay! What is this occasion, Xiao Jin, why are you so inappropriate? How can you use this tone to joke with the second uncle? The second uncle is old and has a generation gap with young people. Can't you listen?" You know our joke."
It is "generation gap" and "old age". When Mu Xiulun seems to be criticizing Su Ji, he is actually poking at the heart of the middle-aged man.
Although Su Jishi had the upper hand, she did not love to fight. Mu Xiulun's steps had already reached her feet, so she walked down the stairs - in the blink of an eye, she was another poor, weak and innocent pure flower.
…
Mu Xiulun called the waiter to pay the bill, and the second uncle and his little girlfriend stood there like two transparent people, completely ignored.
When Mu Xiulun stood up, he politely extended his hand to Su Jishi. A dazed look flashed across Su Jishi's eyes, and she immediately understood what he meant: After all, they are in the relationship of "the gold master and the canary", and there are members of the family present, so they can't behave like two strangers .
Forget it, anyway, the contract ends today, so let's say she gave away an encore performance for free.
She stretched out her fingertips and rested them on the man's palm reservedly. Different from her sister's catkin, Su Jishi's hands are very rough because she often crawls and rolls in the wild, with many scars and even a few calluses.
However, at this moment, Mu Xiulun had no time to worry about this subtle difference. The girl's small hand was lying in his big palm, and he only needed to squeeze his five fingers together to hold her tightly.
Two hands that were equally warm were pressed together, Mu Xiulun exerted a little force, and the girl stood up and took the man's arm.
She was as light as a leaf, a flower, and a howling wind. Mu Xiulun had a faint premonition in his heart—if he couldn't hold her tightly, she would slip away from his palm.
Mu Xiulun suppressed this inexplicably strange thought. He is the adopted son of a wealthy family with a difficult future, and she is a rising young actress. They are just an ordinary cooperative relationship... and this relationship, until today, is over.
He could still find someone else to sign a nurturing contract, so why should he keep her
However, compared to his contradictory heart, his body was much more honest—he stretched out his long arms, and without her permission, he wrapped his arms around her slender waist.
Su Jishi was so hungry that her steps were weak, and she had no time to resist, so she plunged into the man's embrace.
The girl's slender and tall body just fit into the man's chest. Through the thin summer fabric, the two beating hearts stick together, as if the two shattered semicircles have finally found the other half that fit perfectly.
In the eyes of outsiders, the young couple can't help but embrace each other passionately.
However, in the heart of the person involved, there is nothing romantic about this scene—
Su Jishi thought: Zena, when will this encore end
But Mu Xiulun thought: Strange, why is there something hard against me between her legs
The author has something to say: Top the pot, although there was no update yesterday... but today's chapter has 7,500 words! Hope to make it up to everyone! !
