Chapter 545: Growing Up
Seeing Wang Jinglu standing at the entrance of the corridor waving from a distance, Shen Tiantian turned the steering wheel and drove downstairs.
Not long ago, she spent almost all of her savings to finally get this trot. It looks unusually exquisite and beautiful, and the color is that kind of yellow and yellow. It has to be said that it is a bit ostentatious.
After the car was parked, she opened the door and got out, and even picked up a gift bag on the passenger seat.
Wang Jing smiled, "Still carrying things?"
Shen Tiantian shook her shoulders, "It's not for you!"
Wang Jinglu smiled, the hands of the two had been clasped together at some point, Shen Tiantian turned around and pressed the key to lock the car, and went upstairs side by side.
Before going upstairs, Shen Tiantian subconsciously turned her head and glanced at the side of the building.
Wang Jinglu noticed her movements, and said calmly, "Don't look away, I must have photographed them! Those people have been there for several days."
Shen Tiantian asked: "The security guards in your community don't care?"
Wang Jinglu said helplessly: "Take care! But no matter how you do it, at most they are not allowed to harass the residents. This is not a private place, it is a community where so many people live together, so we can't keep people from coming in, right? They don't even If you don’t go in, just guard over there, no one can do anything to them!”
Shen Tiantian curled her lips and stopped talking.
Upstairs, Father Wang took Wang Jinglu's younger brother back to Jinan Mansion, and was not at home. Mother Wang greeted her very affectionately, and complained when she saw the things she was carrying, "Come here as soon as you come, what else are you taking! "
Shen Tiantian is a clever ghost, and she has been here several times before, and Ms. Wang likes her very much.
Coincidentally, Wang Jingxue was also at home.
Shen Tiantian saw her and hurriedly said hello, "Sister Xue is at home too! No recording?"
Although Wang Jingxue always likes to keep a cold face, but at home, she tends to act a lot more relaxed. Shen Tiantian is also a good girlfriend of her younger sister. She has met each other more than once. She has a good impression of her, so Smiling, "It's been too chaotic outside the company recently, we have a short vacation, and we will record again in a few days!"
She made an appointment to come over for dinner today, and after she came, she sat down for a while, and then Mother Wang rolled up her sleeves to cook for herself, and Wang Jingxue also went into the kitchen to help, but pushed the servant, Sister Zhang, out of the kitchen.
Wang Jinglu took Shen Tiantian to her room upstairs, and the two chatted casually.
Few people knew the name Wang Jinglu a few days ago, but since the two consecutive reports of "Yanjing Entertainment Life" came out, the name Wang Jinglu has become extremely popular in the domestic entertainment industry!
A few days ago when the incident started, Shen Tiantian had already called for the first time. At that time, she felt that Wang Jinglu was still calm. At this time, she looked carefully between her words. She didn't know if she was used to it or didn't take it seriously. Anyway, she She was really as calm as she showed on the phone at the beginning, making Shen Tiantian want to ask something, but she didn't know where to start.
Even when the two sat together, it was mainly Wang Jinglu who asked her.
How about the movie that just finished filming? Did it go well? How was the atmosphere in the set? How did the director treat you? Has your acting improved? Has the pay been settled yet?
In short, they are some topics between good girlfriends.
After chatting, it was Shen Tiantian's turn to ask some questions: Is there a lot of pressure? Did Li Qian say anything? Last time you said you wanted to marry him, did you tell him? How did he react?
Before I knew it, thirty or forty minutes had passed, and Ms. Wang downstairs called for dinner, and the two of them went down hand in hand—a table full of good food.
Sister Zhang and Wang Jingxue were busy serving dishes to the table. Mother Wang hesitated for a moment and asked Wang Jinglu, "Would you like to call Xiaoqian and ask him if he is coming for dinner? I made his favorite braised pork ribs."
Shen Tiantian was overjoyed, and turned her head to look at Wang Jinglu with some expectation, but Wang Jinglu shook her head immediately without even thinking about it, and said, "Don't call him, the reporter is guarding outside! Besides, he It should be at Sister Zhou Moo’s side today, it’s not good to have to call him over.”
She spoke calmly, and when she mentioned Zhou Mo, she was also very calm.
But Shen Tiantian didn't dare to intervene on this kind of topic. She turned to look at Wang's mother, Tao Huijun, and saw her slightly pursed her lips. According to Shen Tiantian's past observations and conclusions, this should mean that she was somewhat unhappy.
But after a while, she still smiled and said, "That's right."
Coincidentally, today's house is full of women, and Ms. Wang asked Sister Zhang to come and sit with her. It was a gesture that she really didn't alienate Shen Tiantian at all, and Shen Tiantian was very happy.
It's just that the rules of the Wang family have always been to eat without saying anything. Everyone at the dinner table does not speak, and just eats in silence. Today, there are guests, and Wang's mother decides to open a bottle of red wine. We can chat, but each person only pours a glass bottom, and after drinking and eating, the mode of not talking begins.
After eating, it's time to chat.
After helping to pack the tableware into the kitchen, Wang Jingxue apologized to Shen Tiantian, and went upstairs to her room, saying that she wanted to continue practicing singing. Sister Zhang was washing up in the kitchen. Hui Jun took Shen Tiantian to chat, and Wang Jinglu accompanied her.
After asking some questions similar to those of Wang Jinglu, and getting a general idea of her recent filming experiences, Mama Wang seemed to suddenly remember, and turned to Wang Jinglu and said, "It doesn't mean that the company will soon start filming a new movie. Is it a drama? I remember hearing your sister mention it, it seems to be an urban romance drama?"
Wang Jinglu nodded.
Although it has been a long time since she has been to the office of Minghu Culture, she still knows the TV series named "Meteor Garden" very well. She had read the script as early as last year. At that time, Li Qian Show it to her, ask her to comment after watching it, and ask her if she wants to play a role.
At that time last year, Wang Jinglu was indeed a little moved, but he hesitated at that time, and did not answer. After the New Year, his mood gradually changed. Later, Li Qian did not ask her again. If he asked, Wang Jinglu was already very sure. I told him: I'm not interested!
Tao Huijun was obviously concerned about this matter. Seeing Wang Jinglu nodding, he immediately asked, "Is Xiaoqian the director?"
Shen Tiantian also turned to look at Wang Jinglu.
Don't even think about it, with the great success of "Legend of the New White Snake", Li Qian's new play is hard to refuse for almost all actors. For Shen Tiantian, who is still in school and followed "Legend of the New White Snake" suddenly became popular This is even more true for actors who have grown up.
Therefore, long before Minghu Culture announced the start of casting, Shen Tiantian heard about the actions of the company's film and television department, and she was already concerned about this matter. That's why, as soon as I returned to Shuntian Mansion after the filming, I couldn't wait to come over to Wang's house for dinner.
However, according to the rough information she has obtained so far, the script of the new play should be written by Li Qian, but it is said that the director is probably not.
Sure enough, Wang Jinglu quickly replied: "No, the director is Jin Han. Brother Han Shunzhang will be the executive producer. Li Qian said that he plans to intervene in this movie as little as possible."
Tao Huijun nodded when he heard the words, but the smile on his face remained unchanged. He turned to Shen Tiantian and said, "I don't know anything about singing or filming, but I can trust Xiaoqian! So I think ha, although this movie The play is not directed by him, but as long as the script is his, it will definitely be popular! Do you want to fight for a role or something? Didn’t you also sign with the company? Well, don't be embarrassed, if you have to fight for it, you have to fight for it!"
Looking at each other while speaking, Shen Tiantian is still too tender in front of Tao Huijun. Just looking at the changes in her eyes and expression, Tao Huijun already understood what she meant. When he opened his mouth, he glanced at Wang Jinglu with a smile, and said with a smile: "You and Xiaolu are best friends, let her help you talk to Xiaoqian, if it doesn't work, wait for him to come over for dinner later, and I'll give you a tip too!"
Shen Tiantian was overjoyed when she heard the words, and thanked her quickly!
Wang Jinglu frowned slightly.
Turning her head to look at her mother, there was a moment of confusion on her face, but she quickly made up her mind, and said to Shen Tiantian: "He attaches great importance to this drama, although he is not going to intervene, but in my view Come on, he won't intervene, and he won't allow others to intervene! The casting will be cast in a few days, you can sign up to try, but I'm afraid that if I speak for you, it will have side effects instead!" While speaking, She turned her head and glanced at Tao Huijun.
For a moment, Tao Huijun froze for a moment.
…………
Not getting the promise that should be easier to get as she expected, Shen Tiantian felt a little uneasy and a little unhappy—especially when it came to the later, Wang Jinglu's businesslike appearance made her feel even more unhappy. But she made it clear: just because you are my girlfriend, I can't speak for you. Because this drama was handed over to Han Shunzhang and Jin Han!
When she left, the smile on Tao Huijun's face, which was still forced to hold on, disappeared instantly.
When Wang Jinglu sent Shen Tiantian downstairs and came back, what she saw was Tao Huijun's expressionless face.
Wang Jinglu said hello, "Mom, I'm going back to my room!" She was about to go upstairs, but Tao Huijun calmly said, "Xiaolu, come here and sit down, Mom wants to chat with you."
Wang Jinglu stopped, walked over, and at the same time couldn't help sighing inwardly.
This was predictable, and it was also what Li Qian had repeatedly told him before. He said that when encountering similar things, he should not force himself to contradict his mother, and just leave the matter to him to solve.
In the past, Wang Jinglu was both respectful and afraid of her mother. Of course she was happy to hide behind Li Qian. However, in the past six months, she has experienced some things and thought a lot. Finally, she decided to give up the idea of becoming an actress and decided to become an actress. Marry him, and at the same time, she also decided that as long as there are some things that she can handle, even if it is more difficult, she must not push it to him again.
Like now.
Wang Jinglu went over and sat down.
Tao Huijun looked at her, both mother and daughter had calm eyes, which surprised Tao Huijun. It has been a while, and as the person who knows Wang Jinglu best, she has been able to detect a slight change, but she didn't feel it. What's the big problem——Wang Jinglu wants to marry Li Qian, so far she has only told Li Qian and Shen Tiantian, but never told her.
After a while, Tao Huijun said, "Xiao Lu, what happened just now?"
Wang Jinglu pursed her lips, smiled, and said, "Mom, what do you want to say?"
Tao Huijun frowned, this was another unexpected situation - she still knew her daughter very well, she knew that Wang Jinglu was a very good child, but now it seemed to her that it was not the case at all, This made her feel that she was rarely passive when facing her daughter.
However, since Wang Jinglu had already asked, she could only say: "Mom is thinking about you! How many times have I told you that the two over there are too strong. Originally, Qi Jie should be your best helper and friend." As an alliance, she holds a very important position in Li Qian's heart, but her relationship with Liao Liao is too good, she can be drawn to, but not relied upon. So, apart from your sister and Xie Bing, you must have someone of your own in the company! Shen Sweet is just right!"
After a pause, she continued: "You two have such a good relationship, and she has already signed into the company. This is simply your natural ally! And, have you forgotten, what mother told you, the music department, It's Liao Liao's territory, Zhou Mo can't get in, and Zou Wenhuai doesn't have a lot of fun, but the film and television department is just starting, Liao Liao is a singer, and he can't reach in, but you are an actor, and Jin Han and Han Shunzhang are also You are familiar with it, this is what you must strive for! Make this one your basic disk!"
Wang Jing smiled.
When she smiled, Tao Huijun couldn't continue talking.
"What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with what Mom said?"
Wang Jinglu smiled without saying a word, and then said after a pause: "It's okay, you can continue talking."
Tao Huijun hesitated to speak, always felt that Wang Jinglu was too strange, but after a moment of hesitation, she felt that the person sitting opposite her was her daughter after all, subconsciously, she didn't think that she was too difficult to deal with, so she couldn't help but continued: : "The matter between you and Xiaoqian has been exposed recently. From my mother's point of view, this is a good thing! Even if Li Qian wants to hide, you should pull him out and make this matter public! Even if you I don't want to get married for the time being, so it's fine to make it public first, and give the name of the main wife in front of the media and the public!"
Wang Jinglu pursed her lips and smiled again.
Tao Huijun noticed her smile and finally felt that something was really wrong. Frowning, she slowly straightened her back and asked, "Xiaolu, do you have anything to tell mom?"
Wang Jinglu actually nodded directly.
So Tao Huijun frowned unobtrusively again, and waited for it, "Speak, mom, listen."
Wang Jinglu glanced at it and saw that the door of the guest room was closed, knowing that as long as the voice was not too loud, Sister Zhang would not be able to hear it, so she smiled and said, "Actually, I just have a few words."
After thinking for a while, she said: "The company belongs to Li Qian, regardless of the music department or the film and television department, it belongs to him, not Sister Liao Liao's, and it cannot be mine. So, I don't intend to fight for anything, and I don't intend to To win anyone over, I only rely on Li Qian. What she gives to me is mine. If he doesn't give it to me, I won't steal it. The same goes for you, don't try to meddle in the company's affairs, and you don't need to help me win anyone over. "
Tao Huijun was stunned.
But after a while, Wang Jinglu continued: "You think it's a good thing for the two of us to be exposed by the media recently, but for me, this matter is a headache. Because for me, what anyone thinks is not as good as what Li Qian thinks It’s better. And the two of us have already discussed it and plan to get married before the end of the year, and now I don’t know if it needs to be postponed!”
Tao Huijun was tongue-tied.
However, Wang Jinglu hadn't finished speaking, "Then..." At this point, she hesitated for a moment, but soon became firm again, looking at her mother calmly, and said: "As for my sister, I don't know Reject, if she wants, Li Qian also thinks, I have no objection. However, this is a matter between the two of them, or at most it is a story between the three of us. From now on, I don't want you to mediate What, okay?"
Tao Huijun hesitated to speak, parted her lips a few times, and felt that there was not a single word that could be said at this moment——for the first time in the past twenty years, almost every word of her daughter was uttered. It completely exceeded my expectations!
At this time, she wanted to ask, "You guys agreed to get married? Why didn't you tell your mother?", or, "Your sister's matter...you know?"
But for some reason, I couldn't say a word.
The daughter sitting opposite was familiar yet unfamiliar, with calm and calm eyes.
At this time, she can even imagine that if she asks the question, she will answer herself calmly and with a smile, "Yes! We have discussed it!"
"It's about the two of us!"
"Don't you know that what you did was very obvious? Do you still think Li Qian and I are stupid? Even if you did it very covertly, my sister is not as good as you!"
So, she couldn't say a word, but just looked at her daughter stupidly.
It seemed that suddenly, she had become so strange.
But at this time, Wang Jinglu waited for a while, seeing that Tao Huijun did not speak, she said, "Mom, I have finished what I want to say. If you have nothing else to do, I will go upstairs!" Then she got up and went upstairs.
Tao Huijun followed her back until she disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
After an unknown amount of time, she finally breathed out slowly, Nan Nan said, "Grow up...Grow up..."
…………
Wang Jingxue went downstairs to get her bag, searched for a long time, found a USB flash drive, and was about to go upstairs when she turned her head and saw her mother sitting on the sofa in a daze, as if she was still muttering Looking at something, it seemed that he didn't notice himself at all, so he couldn't help being a little curious, so he took the USB flash drive and walked over.
When she got closer, she seemed to be saying: "Growing up..." She frowned, puzzled, and finally said, "Mom? Mom! What's wrong with you?"
Tao Huijun came back to her senses in astonishment, looked at the eldest daughter whose body was so overwhelmed by the loose pajamas, smiled after a while, and said kindly: "It's okay, mom just suddenly felt that you have grown up!"
Wang Jingxue was very surprised when he heard this.
But before she could ask anything, Tao Huijun had already waved at her, "Go, go, practice your song! Mom is fine, just leave me alone!"
Wang Jingxue walked away step by step, returned to her own room upstairs, thinking about it, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, so she came out and knocked on the door of her sister's room, then opened the door and went in, asking: "What's wrong with our mother?"
Wang Jinglu was reading a book, saw her sister come in, stood up, but just smiled when she heard the words, sticking out her tongue a bit mischievously, walked over, hugged her arm, dragged her in, closed the door behind her back, and said with a smile: "Maybe I frightened her just now, ha!"
Wang Jingxue was even more surprised, "You frightened her?"
Wang Jinglu had already hugged her, pulling her to sit down by the bed like she had done countless times since she was a child, and said with a smile, "Oh, it's okay, I just told her, after a while, when the current limelight passes Now, we are going to move to a new house, and I asked her, do you want to ask you to move in with us too!"
While talking about moving, Wang Jingxue was taken aback when she suddenly abducted herself.
Fortunately, the USB drive was already in my room at this time, otherwise it would have fallen on the floor!
She glanced at her sister in astonishment and trepidation, and then quickly turned her gaze away, almost daring not to look at her—think about it, what does this mean? The younger sister and brother-in-law were going to move to live the couple's life, but they invited their older sister to move there too! What is this called!
It's fine if I don't have a fixed place to live, but I have a house, and it's a not-so-small two-story apartment, and it's a house with my name written on the real estate certificate!
It would be fine if she invited her parents to move there with her, but she only mentioned herself, it was "you", not "you"!
Wang Jingxue was astonished and terrified. She felt her brain go crazy. At that moment, her hands and feet became cold, and she even lost her ability to think. She felt a daze before her eyes!
After a while, she forced herself to calm down, but her breath was short of breath. She turned her head to look at Wang Jinglu reluctantly in panic and dodge, and forced out a dry smile, and said, "Nonsense again, you are moving, why should I go with you?"
Wang Jinglu smiled, the smile was pure and sweet, it didn't seem to have any other meaning, at this time, she just followed her sister's words, and said: "That's what I said! The house is so big, I think you definitely don't want to spend all day I live with my mother, so I just want you to come and be my company!"
Wang Jingxue didn't dare to show it, but she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, she smiled, and finally regained a little naturalness, "What nonsense are you talking about!" There was a bit of shame in her tone, and there seemed to be some indescribable pampering.
But at this time, Wang Jinglu said relaxedly: "In the first place, the house is so big that neither of us can live in it. There are so many empty rooms. If you don't go in, maybe someone else will live in it in the future! Instead of letting others Go, of course I hope it's you! Because you are my sister!"
Wang Jingxue was stunned again.
She felt as if she heard something, but she was not sure. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that her sister was just saying that the new house was very big. Complicated meaning.
After a while, she looked at her younger sister and said, "Just now downstairs, I seemed to hear our mother muttering to herself, what did you say... grown up? Are you talking about you?"
Wang Jinglu froze for a moment, then smiled wryly, "Maybe!"
Then, she turned her head to look at Wang Jingxue, and said, "Sister, we've all grown up."
It seems to have a deep meaning, but it seems to be simply expressing something.
Looking at her younger sister, Wang Jingxue suddenly felt that she was a little strange.
After a while, she stretched out her hand and hugged her into her arms, just like she hugged that little sister ten years ago, and then she suddenly said: "It doesn't matter how old you are, you are my sister!"
Wang Jinglu huddled in her arms and gave a soft "hmm".
