The business event had finally come to an end. At that time, everyone would be going to the celebratory banquet together. Xi Wan returned backstage to remove her makeup and bumped into Lu Jiani who had just returned.
Lu Jiani looked at Xi Wan and asked her, "are you very close to Gu Cheng? "
Xi Wan shook her head and replied, "It's the first time I've met him. I know his younger brother. "
"Oh, Gu ye, that director. 'records of the Geisha of the Tang Dynasty' . I've been busy recently and haven't watched it yet. I'll watch it later. " Lu Jiani nodded.
Xi Wan didn't expect Lu Jiani to say such a thing, so she smiled at her.
Lu Jiani took out a pack of female cigarettes, took one out, and handed it to Xi Wan. "Do you want to smoke? "
Xi Wan shook her head. "thank you, no. "
Lu Jiani narrowed her eyes. Because of her eyeliner, she looked like a lazy Persian cat. She skillfully lit the cigarette, put it in her mouth, took a puff, and blew out a few smoke rings "You're such a good student. Sigh. "
She stretched.
Xi Wan smiled and didn't explain.
The two of them were not familiar with each other and were not talkative people. Naturally, the atmosphere quickly turned cold.
Xi Wan continued to remove her make-up. Lu Jiani looked at Xi Wan and then chatted with Xi Wan casually. They were quite far from each other. Finally, Lu Jiani shrugged and saw the make-up remover on Xi Wan's dressing table. "Give me two. "
Xi Wan handed it over. Lu Jiani quickly removed her make-up. Soon, a delicate and clean face appeared in front of Xi Wan. It was only because she did not sleep well that she had two thick dark circles under her eyes.
Footsteps sounded. It was Gu Cheng's assistant who came backstage. He smiled and said, "two beauties, the car is ready. We can set off at any time. "
After the assistant left, Lu Jiani continued to wipe her make-up with a makeup remover. She then poured mineral water on the wipe and washed her face. After that, she applied some sunscreen, rubbed her eyebrows, applied some lip gloss, and said a few words to Xi Wan They still had a lot of common topics to talk about
"Let's leave a wechat message. "
After adding each other as friends, Lu Jiani took the lead to leave the dressing room. Qian Mengfei, who had been silent the whole time, finally said, "I think her behavior is weird. ". This was what Qian Mengfei thought in his mind.
Xi Wan said, "it's just a normal social interaction. " Then, Xi Wan also got up and went out.
During the celebration banquet, Xi Wan and the other guests naturally sat at the main table. Lu Jiani naturally sat next to Gu Cheng. Gu Cheng frowned without a trace.
There were many old foxes at the table. Even though they had never met before, once you sat at the wine table, you would naturally become familiar with each other. One by one, you would stand up and sit down, continuously persuading the wine.
Beside Xi Wan was a fat general manager of sales. He had triangular eyebrows and beady eyes. He was shining and his figure was burly, giving off a very heavy feeling.
During this period, he kept asking Xi Wan about her well-being and kept putting food in his bowl. As a result, XI WAN did not even have the appetite to eat. Perhaps it was because he saw Xi Wan's embarrassment, Gu Cheng whispered a few words to his assistant. Then, the assistant looked at Xi Wan thoughtfully and said to the sales manager, "Manager Yang, you only care about taking care of the beauty. Don't forget about your stomach. Our company can't do without you, the sales backbone. "
As a sales person and as the general manager, she was naturally shrewd. She knew what was going on the moment she heard it. Then, she quietly ate, drank, and occasionally toasted with others.
However, Xi Wan's appetite was ruined.
She got up to go to the bathroom to get some air. Not long after, Lu Jiani also came.
She leaned against the bathroom wall and smoked. Then, she watched Xi Wan wash her hands continuously. The water flowed down
She suddenly asked Xi Wan, "Do you think love is more important or bread? "
"Bread, " Xi Wan replied without thinking.
Lu Jiani was surprised. She didn't expect Xi Wan to say bread was important, so she unconsciously blurted out what she was thinking. "So you fell in love so quickly? " She asked herself and answered, "that's true. Ming ri-senpai is also rich. " Then, she denied it "But with your conditions, you can find a better one. "
She seemed to have discovered something and looked at Xi Wan.
Xi Wan's face was still calm and indifferent.
Lu Jiani took two puffs of smoke and reminisced while intoxicated. "I once chose love, and then I was banned by bread. "
Xi Wan nodded. She had naturally heard about this, but she didn't feel anything when she heard about it. After all, there were too many such things in the circle. After listening to it too much, she would become numb.
"Bread thought that I f * cked him, and then banned me. Thus, my best years were wasted in hiding. "I thought I was full of love, but I realized that I was wrong. "My love betrayed me when I was at my most helpless, and I even lost the best opportunity for my career to rise because of love. "So now, in everyone's eyes, I'm just a female artiste who relied on her best friend and scandal to get to the top. "Chi... all my talent and spirit were destroyed, and the scripts I'm taking now are getting worse. "I can only rely on my friends to help me go through a few business activities to earn some money. "
Lu Jiani's side profile was hidden in the dark of the lights. The red flames spread downward. She shook off the ashes with her index finger and turned her head to Xi Wan. "actually, I didn't smoke in the past either. I learned it in those few years. I used to be a good boy too. "
Xi Wan nodded. Then she looked at the flowing water and continuously washed her hands. The icy cold feeling made her feel much more comfortable.
"Sigh. " She straightened up and walked to Xi Wan's side. She put out the half-lit cigarette in her hand and said, "I used a lot of connections to come to this event. " It could be said that she had used all the connections and favors that she could use. Next time.. She did not have the courage to risk everything.
"I heard that Gu Cheng is 30 years old, but he doesn't have a girlfriend yet. "
"I also want to take advantage of my face. " Lu Jiani looked at herself in the mirror and pulled her cheeks. "when it's still okay, I want to fish for bread. "
"So I've come to work hard. "
"But gu Cheng seems to like you. "
Lu Jiani looked at Xi Wan very seriously.
Xi Wan could not help but laugh when she heard this. "You're thinking too much. "
She admitted that her face was indeed good and her figure was okay, but she was not money. Everyone would like her, so she did not see Gu Cheng like her at all. It was not that she had a low Eq, but she was sure that Gu Cheng did not have any feelings for her at all. At most, he would take care of her because of Gu ye.
Because when she looked at Gu Cheng earlier, she did not see any other meaning in Gu Cheng's eyes other than normal cooperation.
Lu Jiani looked at Xi Wan, "didn't you say that you would choose bread? "
