MTL - Flash Marriage with My Ex-Boyfriend’s Nemesis-Chapter 42 Marriage first, love second, abuse scum along the way 20
Kenny still wanted to talk, but Gu Youchen had already strode away.
He chased after him for two steps, but he pulled away the car parked at the door and went straight up.
The security guard stood in front of Kenny: "I'm sorry, sir, this is our Mr. Gu's special car."
The Gu's building is in a relatively prosperous area, and there are quite a few people coming in and out of the door, and they all looked over.
Kenny felt that he was slapped **** the face, it was hot.
He is Si Luoqing's manager. When Si Luoqing came back from abroad, how glorious was it?
After the company trained her to go abroad as a trainee, she made her debut. Although her domestic popularity is not particularly high, she still has a few title songs that occupy major charts.
But in just half a month, everything took a turn for the worse!
The Si family is dead, Si Luoqing is dead, and now his manager is humiliated at the door of Gu's!
Kenny hastily blocked his face, fearing that passers-by would recognize him, so they took a photo of him and posted it on Weibo.
So until he found a corner, he held the phone to his ear: "Luoqing—"
Si Luoqing waited impatiently, and she didn't have time to ask Kenny if she caught up with Gu Youchen, but said: "Kenney, tell me the truth, have I been hidden by the company?"
Kenny's heart skipped a beat, but he was still struggling: "Luo Qing, what are you talking about?"
Si Luoqing said: "Those women in the circle are watching me make fun of me. They say that I have been hidden in the snow, and they all look sympathetic to giving alms. In fact, they almost clapped their hands to celebrate!"
Kenny took a deep breath: "How do they know?"
Obviously the higher-ups promised not to tell Si Luoqing...
No, they only said not to tell Si Luoqing, but they didn't say they would release the news!
Kenny knew that the general trend was over, so he admitted: "Yes, Zhao always said so, so we must seize the opportunity for the art exhibition this afternoon!"
Si Luoqing was breathing tremblingly: "My contract will expire in four and a half years. If I am hidden, I will really have no chance in the future!"
She is already 26 years old, and she will be 30 when she comes out, and she has always been a sweet lady. In addition, the entertainment industry is changing rapidly, and the Si family can't be the backing. The road ahead... can be imagined.
"So, Luo Qing, today is probably our last chance." Kenny said, "Let's fight to the death!"
Si Luoqing could only grit her teeth: "Okay."
She stood in front of the mirror again, and found that her eyes were a little red, so she tried to calm down again, but her hands and feet were still trembling.
She thought of what Ning Qingqing said just now, and a strong absurdity surged in her heart——
Did Ning Qingqing know something and contribute to the flames?
In the afternoon, after Ning Qingqing finished her due diligence and returned to the company, she got off work early and accompanied Tan Xizhou to the art exhibition venue.
At the same time, Li Lan and Director Guo were chatting.
Li Lan led Director Guo to explain the background and ideas of his original creation one by one, and they had a good chat.
Director Guo saw one of them and said, "Mr. Li, the protagonist of my next movie is also an oil painter, so can I borrow some of your works to participate in the shooting?"
Li Lan nodded: "Of course there is no problem. I also hope that more people can understand oil painting, especially in China, which started late, and there is indeed a gap in development compared with foreign countries."
Director Guo was very happy: "Great, I will definitely protect it carefully!"
Li Lan smiled and said, "I've heard that you are a painting idiot, so I can rest assured that the painting is entrusted to you."
"That's right, movies and oil paintings are my passion!" Director Guo asked: "Ms. Li, what works are you creating now, can you tell me?"
When Li Lan heard this, a smug smile appeared in her eyes: "I'm taking a group photo of my son and daughter-in-law."
Director Guo was surprised: "Young Master Gu is married?"
Li Lan nodded: "Well, I just got the certificate, and the wedding is still a few months away."
Director Guo hurriedly said: "The wedding date is fixed, you must send me an invitation card!"
Li Lan replied: "Definitely."
While talking, a voice suddenly interjected, with the surprise of "encounter": "Director Guo, Teacher Li, what a coincidence!"
As Kenny spoke, he brought Si Luoqing over, and then introduced himself to the two of them: "Director Guo, do you remember me? I'm Kenny. I met you once when I was abroad?"
Then he said to Li Lan: "Mr. Li, hello, I'm Skaini. We met at a charity dinner sponsored by you before."
Naturally, Li Lan and Director Guo would not know such a person, but they still nodded slightly in view of their politeness.
Kenny persisted and continued: "This is Si Luoqing from the Si family. She sang abroad before, and the two of you may have heard her song—"
While speaking, Si Luoqing hurriedly greeted the two of them politely, with a respectful tone:
"Hello, Director Guo, hello Teacher Li! I took my cousin and agent over to see the art exhibition today, and I didn't expect to meet you two! Teacher Li, your paintings have inspired me a lot..."
Li Lan and Li Lan continued to smile and nodded.
Kenny began to chat awkwardly: "I heard that Director Guo likes oil painting before, what a coincidence, Luo Qing also learned oil painting abroad before—"
He found out that Director Guo is going to make a movie, the male lead is an idiot and the female lead is his student, so no matter the male lead or the female lead, they need to be able to draw.
He was trying to bring the topic to Si Luoqing.
Who is Director Guo? You can understand it as soon as you hear it.
He doesn't know much about Si Luoqing, but the other person's appearance and temperament are good, if she really can draw, he can consider giving her a chance to audition.
But he didn't make any statement, but continued to nod lightly, even his eyes fell on the painting, but he didn't drive the two away.
Kenny thought it was a joke, so he winked at Si Luoqing, and Si Luoqing also smiled quickly. On the surface, she was talking to Li Lan, but she watched Director Guo's expression from time to time.
The two bowed slightly and kept chatting awkwardly.
Si Luoqing had never tried to curry favor with others before, especially in order to get this role, she couldn't wear a mask and sunglasses, she had to just be exposed in front of everyone.
So, she saw that someone had secretly taken out their mobile phone to take pictures or record videos.
She really wanted to rush over and let someone delete it, but she also knew that this was her only chance.
Compared to being hidden in the snow, perhaps it is acceptable to be ridiculed by others on the trending searches at this moment.
And at this moment, she saw Ning Qingqing walking in with a tall slender boy.
The boy looked half a head taller than Ning Qingqing, dressed coolly, but beside Ning Qingqing, he looked very obedient and clingy.
He tugged at Ning Qingqing's arm and pointed forward.
So, the two of them came here.
Si Luoqing suddenly stiffened.
She has always pretended to be grand in front of Ning Qingqing, when did the other party see her so humble?
It's like being seen by your opponent at your worst, feeling as if you're digging your toes on the ground!
Just at this time, Li Lan seemed to have noticed her sudden freeze, so she turned her head to look.
She saw Ning Qingqing and Tan Xizhou, but they didn't seem to see them.
The two stopped five or six meters away from them. Tan Xizhou pointed to a painting and said something to Ning Qingqing excitedly.
A slight smile appeared on the corner of Li Lan's lips unconsciously.
Si Luoqing saw it, she followed Li Lan's gaze, and then pretended to be casual: "Does Teacher Li know that lady? She is the girlfriend of Mr. Shen from Shen's family, but she seems to know Mr. Gu too, and with Gu Ms. A little relationship is also good."
Hearing this, Li Lan finally turned her head to look at Si Luoqing seriously.
The corner of Si Luoqing's lips raised a smile: "I used to be in the same school as them, so we knew each other. I met her at the class reunion last time. I'm just a little curious. I don't know how Young Master Gu knew her..."
What she said, inside and out, was that Ning Qingqing was Shen Zhiqian's girlfriend, but Ning Qingqing even hooked up with Gu Youchen.
Such a person, how could Li Lan tolerate his son's association with him!
Sure enough, after hearing this, Li Lan's expression turned cold.
Si Luoqing cheered in her heart.
It is estimated that Ning Qingqing climbed up to Gu Youchen for some reason, and played by the other side, men are sometimes irrational in certain aspects.
For the sake of Ning Qingqing, Gu Youchen even asked her agency to hide her in the snow.
But what if Li Lan objected? Did Gu Youchen kick Ning Qingqing directly?
Will she be able to rejuvenate about the affairs of Luoqing?
Thinking of this, her heart trembled with excitement.
But Li Lan in front of her had already withdrawn her gaze, she said to Si Luoqing: "Miss Si, let me introduce you to Director Guo again."
Si Luoqing's heart lit up—
Could it be that he just reminded Li Lan that the other party finally had a crush on her?
Li Lan turned to Director Guo and said, "I think Miss Si is very interested in oil paintings. We just discussed the treatment of light and shadow in this painting, so it's just right for Miss Si to share her views."
Si Luoqing didn't expect that the other party would test her at all. She looked at the painting in front of her - "A Woman Sitting by the Window".
She could only say: "I think the light is very good. It comes from outside, and it looks like early morning. A woman reads a book after getting up early. The light makes her cheeks rosy and youthful."
After saying a word, Director Guo and Li Lan didn't speak.
Si Luoqing's expression was slightly stiff, and she added: "The overall morning light is perfect, highlighting the femininity of a woman!"
This time, Director Guo seemed to be unable to listen anymore, and he said flatly: "This is the light of evening, the light of morning will be clear, and the light of evening will be so soft and warm."
Si Luoqing's breath trembled, and she forced a smile: "I was wrong. I was a little nervous when I faced the two big men just now..."
Li Lan asked again: "Miss Si, how many colors do you think this shadow uses?"
On the side, Kenny was anxious. He sent some information to Si Luoqing, but how could he expect to be tested like this? what color is this Isn't this shade black?
Si Luoqing's palms began to sweat, but she still tried her best to speak: "Black and gray, and a little orange, because there is sunshine outside."
Li Lan said, "The shadow is ultramarine and violet. Because there are environmental colors, I also added several colors from the woman's body."
"The most taboo for shadows is to directly add black to gray, because it will make the picture very dull." Director Guo took the conversation, with a serious tone:
"This is the most basic. If you don't even know this, I'm afraid it's the word 'like'!"
Si Luoqing suddenly turned pale!
Kenny next to him was still trying to make up for it: "I'm sorry Director Guo, I'm sorry Mrs. Li, Luo Qing is usually too busy working as an artist, so maybe she can't remember what she learned in oil painting class..."
But at this moment, a voice between a boy and a man came: "Wow, I really like this painting!"
Tan Xizhou pulled Ning Qingqing over, only to realize that Li Lan and Director Guo were both there.
The two were about to call for someone, when Li Lan raised her hand to stop it, and then asked Tan Xizhou, "Tell me what you think of this painting."
After Tan Xizhou heard the words, he looked carefully and said: "The overall picture uses a lot of warm colors, but the women's clothes use complementary colors to highlight the main body..."
He said a lot, and Guo Dao and Li Lan nodded slightly.
Li Lan asked again: "Do you know what color the shadow is used for?"
Tan Xizhou said naturally: "Ultramarine plus violet, there should be medium yellow, orange red, ripe brown..."
Hearing this, Li Lan laughed and said, "Xizhou really likes painting!"
The blood on Si Luoqing's face faded instantly.
She understands now that Li Lan deliberately tested her, seeing that she didn't understand, so she randomly grabbed a child and came over to ask each other, taking the opportunity to humiliate her!
And how did she offend Li Lan?
Just when her heart was shaking and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to disappear in place, Li Lan smiled at Director Guo: "By the way, Director Guo, I want to introduce you."
She took Ning Qingqing's hand and said to Director Guo: "This is my daughter-in-law Ning Qingqing, Qingqing, this is Mr. Guo, a famous director in the industry!"
Ning Qingqing quickly reached out to Director Guo: "Hello, Mr. Guo, I have seen your work and I am deeply impressed."
Director Guo smiled and said: "I really saw it, didn't you hear your mother-in-law say that, so you deliberately praised me?"
Ning Qingqing smiled: "In that "Deep Sea", my favorite is the female number two in it. In the end, she died. I was so angry that I couldn't sleep all night."
Director Guo suddenly smiled brightly: "Did you come to me to ask for an explanation?"
Ning Qingqing nodded: "No, I rarely suffer from insomnia."
Director Guo smiled at Li Lan: "Mr. Li, your daughter-in-law is very interesting, no wonder she can win Young Master Gu's heart!"
Li Lan replied with a smile: "Of course...my son has been happy every day since he got married, and he doesn't work overtime after get off work!"
After speaking, she said again: "This is Tan Xizhou, Qingqing's younger brother."
Director Guo put his arm on Tan Xizhou's shoulder and said with a smile, "Xizhou, I heard from your father yesterday that you are here. I originally asked him to go back tomorrow, but I didn't expect to meet you here!"
Tan Xizhou obviously knew each other, and his tone was very familiar: "So look, Uncle Guo, our fate is unstoppable!"
"You boy!" Director Guo held Tan Xizhou's shoulders: "I like oil paintings so much, come here, just to explain to Uncle Guo the creation techniques of each painting, and let's ask Mr. Li to comment—"
Tan Xizhou patted his chest. "No problem! And you don't know, my sister learned Chinese painting when she was young, and she is also good at playing the piano..."
Director Guo didn't have the slightest doubt about Ning Qingqing's association, so he greeted Ning Qingqing: "Let's go, let's listen to Teacher Li's lecture together!"
Several people walked away talking and laughing, Si Luoqing and Kenny stood in place as if petrified.
After a long time, Kenny asked: "Luo Qing, did I hear correctly just now? Li Lan said that Ning Qingqing is her daughter-in-law? Ning Qingqing married Gu Youchen?"
Si Luoqing's throat was dry, and almost all her strength was taken away. Embarrassment, shame, jealousy, and despair for the future all come together!
She nodded and heard her voice trembling: "According to them, they have already obtained the certificate, so they are really married?"
Kenny's face also turned pale: "And obviously the Gu family is very satisfied with Ning Qingqing... So Gu Yuchen targeted me because he wanted to avenge Ning Qingqing?!"
Si Luoqing's lips trembled: "Just now I told Li Lan that Ning Qingqing is Shen Zhiqian's girlfriend, and she has a close relationship with Young Master Gu... No wonder she suddenly humiliated me..."
Kenny still couldn't figure it out: "Why did Gu Youchen marry Ning Qingqing? Why would that woman meet Gu Youchen after following Shen Zhiqian!"
Si Luoqing's eyes were red: "What's so good about her? Why does everyone like her! And her younger brother, why does he seem to be an acquaintance with Director Guo?!"
Kenny felt the pores all over his body stand up, he murmured: "Maybe there is something we don't know, but now it seems that there is no hope for Director Guo..."
The two stood in place, like falling into an ice cave!
After Ning Qingqing and the others visited the exhibition, it was already evening.
Gu Youchen called: "Qingqing, are you still in the exhibition area?"
Ning Qingqing replied: "Yes, I just finished watching it."
Gu Youchen said: "Okay, we've arrived at the door, you can see my car when you come out."
Seeing this, Director Guo joked: "Qingqing seems to have an appointment with Young Master Gu, so we won't join in the fun. If Teacher Li is free tonight, can I have a meal with you?"
Li Lan smiled and said, "No problem."
Director Guo patted Tan Xizhou who was going to follow Ning Qingqing: "You kid, do you think you don't have enough wattage?"
"Hey, I didn't think my sister and brother-in-law might like Liang!" Although Tan Xizhou said so, he still left with Guo Dao and Li Lan.
When Ning Qingqing walked to the door, she saw Gu Youchen's car.
Gu Youchen was the driver driving today, he sat in the back seat, waited for her to come up and said: "Qingqing, today we are going to the square opposite Lanyue, a new restaurant has recently opened that tastes good."
Ning Qingqing nodded: "Okay, I'm just hungry."
Hearing this, Gu Youchen put his palm on her abdomen: "Oh, it's sunken, it must be very hungry."
Ning Qingqing's cheeks were hot: "No!"
As she said that, as if she was looking for love, she also stretched out her hand: "You are more hungry—"
She didn't realize it until her palm touched the man's flat and firm abdominal muscles, and quickly withdrew her hand.
But the tactile sensation in the palm didn't disappear.
The man let out a low laugh, and leaned into her ear: "Well, Qingqing, I'm even hungrier."
