Chapter 254: Chapter 254 - Brother Jin is Too Old
“That says more about them than it does about us . If you fight with them, it speaks more about you than it does about them,” said Yun Xiangxiang earnestly .
“This is the path every actor must go through . I will be facing more attacks after this, and it will only get worse . Unless I quit acting, only more and more haters will appear . Are you planning to fight every time that happens?”
Yun Lin gritted his teeth .
“Look, you might have won this time, but what if you meet people you can’t beat?” Yun Xiangxiang continued advising him . “Little Lin, rumors are just that . Rumors . ”
Yun Lin puffed his cheeks . He sulked on the sofa .
Yun Xiangxiang left him to his own devices and went down to check on Qian Yongnian .
Yongnian was living with Wang Yong and the others . He stuck to his original plan of starting work on the first of June . Now he was drawing all the blueprints he could think of .
“I was going to make some pea-sized beads and string them together . There’s also a bracelet, necklace, and earrings . But then I thought it would be a shame if the beads broke because the string broke . That’s why I changed it into a piece of inlay jewelry . ”
Yongnian gave Yun Xiangxiang the blueprints . He designed them based on the uncut stone . They were painstakingly detailed . He had weighed the stone and marked down all the jewelries’ range of weight .
He even designed things like inlaid brooches or ring bezels with the leftovers . Nothing was wasted .
She found it hard to relate a craftsman like him with a crooked man who took his employer’s jade all to himself .
Yun Xiangxiang said nothing about it . She put down the blueprints, “I’ll pick up your grandson as planned when summer vacation swings around . ”
When she returned home, Song Qian said, “The master down there has some history . ”
“What did you find out?”
“Something deeper . You hired him, so it’s my job to dig deep,” Song Qian was responsible for Yun Xiangxiang’s safety .
“His son was paralyzed after a car crash . His daughter-in-law was the one who accused him of counterfeiting and doing shoddy work . And she married…”
She smirked, “…someone who works in the company that slandered Master Qian . ”
“Tragic,” Yun Xiangxiang understood what Song Qian was saying .
Yongnian was framed by his family, who was colluding with the company . That was why he couldn’t defend himself .
“That woman is ruthless . She never even cared about her son after all these years . ” The boy was little more than a year old when she betrayed them .
“I think this is her last act of kindness toward them,” Yun Xiangxiang sneered .
Letting her son think she was dead was better than having him know he had a scumbag mother .
“It’s just a matter of opinion,” they were not their family . They wouldn’t know what they wanted .
Someone else’s family matters should only be their own business . Yun Xiangxiang stopped the conversation . She felt that the guy married Qian Qian’s mother to control Yongnian . He wouldn’t overturn the case as he needed to keep his grandson safe .
There was a generation gap between him and Qian Qian . What happened to him was in a time long before Qian Qian . It couldn’t affect him . But it was different with his mother .
Yun Xiangxiang rested for a day before she went to the filming spot . The place was far from her home, and Beijing’s traffic jam during peak hours was atrocious . She didn’t go back home . Instead, she stayed in a hotel the company had arranged for her .
Someone sent her a friend request to her after she had done talking with Song Mian . It was Liang Xinrong .
After the competition back then, Yun Xiangxiang knew Wen Lan wanted Xinrong to be under her . Yun Xiangxiang let the girl pass because of her past with Wen Lan .
But only a select few in the company knew her number . Out of the actors in the company, she only had Li Man and Xue Yu as friends .
If nobody sent her any request, she wouldn’t ask for their username either .
Liang Xinrong sent her a message, [I like you a lot . I added you as a friend because I want to learn from you . ]
[Everyone is a newbie . Let’s work hard together . ] Yun Xiangxiang answered politely .
[En en {?}]
[[{?}]
Xinrong didn’t send her any messages after that . No matter if she had any ulterior motives, at least nobody could dislike her message . That was what Yun Xiangxiang thought .
“The King’s Plan” ended its run on the first of June, recording a total box office of 2 . 41 billion yuan . Regrettably, it didn’t break the record and settled as number two . Yun Xiangxiang told Du Changrong she would be going to Wu Zhao’s place for the feast .
Having it at the hotel was troublesome . The reporters could come and go as they pleased . Wu Zhao held the feast in his home . Only the main team would be there .
Yun Xiangxiang arrived early . Wu Zhao wasn’t home yet . Only his wife was there .
His wife wasn’t someone in the industry, but she was a genius in the financial world . Thanks to her, Wu Zhao was a wealthy guy .
Mrs . Wu didn’t look like a domineering woman . When Yun Xiangxiang was there, she was cooking for them herself . After putting down the gift she brought, Yun Xiangxiang went to the kitchen to help .
“Not many girls are willing to step into the kitchen now,” Mrs . Wu liked Yun Xiangxiang .
“I can be the assistant . But if you want me to be the chef…,” Yun Xiangxiang trailed off .
Her dishes were edible . She could make a few soups . Compared to her mom or her boyfriend, her skills were nothing .
‘It’s fine, as long as you carry your own weight,” Mrs . Wu chuckled .
“Aiyaya, you’re making me look like an unvirtuous woman,” Sun Qiluo was standing outside the kitchen .
“Get over here and you can pretend to be one,” Yun Xiangxiang teased .
Qiluo shook her head, “The guys know how I work . I better not trouble you two . ”
She was one those girls that Mrs . Wu mentioned was unwilling to enter the kitchen . Eating was right up her alley . Cooking was not .
Yun Xiangxiang and Mrs . Wu laughed . They didn’t mind her not helping . Qiluo went to the living room . Yun Xiangxiang learned and chatted with Mrs . Wu as she helped out . She found out they had a nineteen-year-old daughter who was studying abroad .
Mrs . Wu praised Yun Xiangxiang when they were having dinner, “She’s a pretty lady, you men have to take the opportunity . ”
He Xingzhou shook his head, “If I marry her, my life’s going to be a disaster . ”
Yun Xiangxiang was gorgeous, capable, gentle, knowledgeable, and of great upbringing . That much was true .
But the problem was that he couldn’t fit her in his palm . Nor did he have any romantic feelings for her . He preferred gentle girls who idolized him .
“Brother Cang has a family, Brother Jin is too old, umph…”
Lu Jin hit him with his elbow before Xingzhou finished his sentence . The latter’s face contorted with pain .
“There’s sixteen years between you two . Brother Jin . How could you?” He Xingzhou clutched the throbbing spot . He looked at Lu Jin as if Lu Jin was an animal .
“Hahahaha, come, come, let’s eat,” Mrs . Wu mediated .
