Under the light, Lin Jinya's face looked unfamiliar to Gu Hecheng and made him feel depressed.
Gu Hecheng couldn't bear to see the two of them in a stalemate, so he had no choice but to compromise. "Jinyang, fine, I promise you. Put it down first and we'll get engaged first, okay?"
"Engaged?" Lin Jinya looked at him suspiciously.
"Yes, we'll get engaged first." Gu Hecheng's voice was firm and resolute. Lin Jinya's restless heart seemed to have been given a shot of confidence.
"Okay." Lin Jinya finally retracted her hand slowly. "You have to keep your promise."
"Put it down first." Gu Hecheng frowned slightly. He looked at her with mixed feelings as she put the cap on the pesticide bottle. "Jinyang, you must be tired today. Go upstairs and get some rest. We'll discuss the engagement later."
After Gu Hecheng's consolation, Lin Jinya finally put an end to the farce today.
At night, Gu Hecheng lay on the soft bed alone. He found it even harder to fall asleep.
The feeling that Lin Jinya gave him was completely different from his previous impression of her.
He thought of Shen Qianqian, who was always neglected and silent in the past. He became even more restless. He wanted to get closer to Shen Qianqian and make it up to Shen Qianqian.
The next afternoon, Shen Qianqian wanted to have lunch with Lin Jinya, but the receptionist suddenly walked in with a luxurious lunchbox and said to Shen Qianqian, "Manager Shen, here's your takeout."
"Takeout?" Shen Qianqian was stunned and looked at her in confusion.
The receptionist was even more curious when she saw her confused expression. She handed the lunchbox to her and asked, "Didn't you order it? The address, name, and even the phone number are all yours."
"How can that be? I didn't order takeout." Shen Qianqian took the lunchbox in confusion. There was nothing on it except for her personal information. She didn't know who had sent it.
Could it be from Yijia? Shen Qianqian pursed her lips awkwardly and had no choice but to accept it.
Shen Qianqian put away the lunch box, took out her cell phone, and called He Yijia. She wanted to ask for clarification.
"Yijia, are you the one who ordered the takeout for me?" Shen Qianqian asked with uncertainty as she held the order in her hand.
"It wasn't me …" He Yijia was stunned and didn't understand.
"Who could it be?" Shen Qianqian muttered to herself as she hung up the phone. She looked at the lunch box in front of her and was at a loss of what to do.
"Little Lin, come here." Shen Qianqian called her assistant, Xiao Lin, who hadn't gone out to eat yet. She handed the entire lunch box to her, but she had no appetite.
"Wow, Manager Shen, are you really not coming to eat with us?" When Xiao Lin opened the lunch box, her eyes flashed with joy and surprise. "This takeout package is too luxurious. Manager Shen, come and have a look …"
Shen Qianqian looked up. The takeout was indeed very sumptuous. It included crayfish, luxurious sushi, and even after-meal fruits and desserts.
Looking at such a big gift, Shen Qianqian thought of a person. But after thinking for a while, she tried hard to get rid of the image in her mind.
No, it can't be him.
Although Shen Qianqian didn't want to believe it, she received a card from the luxurious takeout she received in the next few days. The name "Gu Hecheng" was clearly written on the card.
Shen Qianqian held the card tightly in her hand. She squeezed it together with anger and threw it into the trash can.
"Little Lin, if there's any takeout, help me eat it or share it with the other colleagues." After saying this, Shen Qianqian took her phone to the rooftop. She wanted to call Gu Hecheng, but after thinking for a while, she finally dismissed the idea.
She stood in the wind and finally decided not to provoke him. It was better to let him do as he pleased.
The phone rang. Shen Qianqian instinctively looked down and saw that it was Mo Yanfan calling.
"Cousin, what's up?" Shen Qianqian leaned against the railing and picked up the phone. "The night after tomorrow? Okay, I got it. "
Mo Yanfan's phone call was a little random. He didn't tell Shen Qianqian what was going on the day after tomorrow. He only said that he wanted to take her somewhere.
It wasn't until the day came that Shen Qianqian finally understood Mo Yanfan's intentions.
It turned out that tonight was the birthday party of a famous director in the entertainment industry. After watching Shen Qianqian shoot a commercial, Mo Yanfan realized that she had a good sense of the camera. He really considered letting her try her career in the entertainment industry.
Because he was afraid that Shen Qianqian wouldn't agree, he didn't say it directly. Instead, he brought her to the birthday party.
As Mo Yanfan expected, when Shen Qianqian stood in front of him in a white dress and saw many faces that she usually only saw on the screen, she asked him in surprise, "Cousin, why did you bring me here? Don't tell me you really want me to develop my career in the entertainment industry? "
Mo Yanfan and Shen Qianqian stood in an inconspicuous corner. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Yes, I do plan to do that. I think Guan Di has good taste. Also, you have a good sense of the camera. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Cousin …" Shen Qianqian didn't understand the situation for a moment. She took a step closer to Mo Yanfan and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Did you forget that I still have Xiao Kong?"
"I have other plans for Xiao Kong. It's not convenient here. I'll tell you in detail later." Mo Yanfan's gaze was unusually firm. His hawk-like gaze swept across the venue and said, "Trust me. It can't be wrong."
"This …" Shen Qianqian still wanted to say something, but the director of the banquet had already seen Mo Yanfan and was about to walk over with a glass of wine.
Shen Qianqian was embarrassed and wanted to turn around and leave, but Mo Yanfan pulled her back and introduced her to the director. "Director Wang, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, Shen Qianqian. She's a completely new face. If you want to develop your career in the entertainment industry in the future, I hope that Director Wang can give her some guidance."
When Director Wang heard this, he saw that the two of them did look somewhat similar. He sized up Shen Qianqian seriously.
With his many years of experience in the industry, he sized up Shen Qianqian with satisfaction and said, "President Mo, I won't hide it from you. I've been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and I can tell at a glance who can and can't become famous."
"I can guarantee that if Miss Shen is willing to work hard in the entertainment industry, she will definitely be able to make a name for herself." After Director Wang finished speaking, he immediately took out a business card and handed it to Shen Qianqian. "This is my business card. If you have any ideas, you can contact me."
Shen Qianqian accepted the business card awkwardly. Just as she was wondering if she should really give him her business card, Mo Yanfan smiled and said, "Director Wang, in the future, my company will package her. If there's any need, I'll definitely contact you."
"Okay." Director Wang seemed to have a good relationship with Mo Yanfan. He didn't mind and went to the side to talk with him.
Before Mo Yanfan left, he lowered his voice and said to Shen Qianqian, who felt awkward, "Take a walk by yourself. Relax."
Shen Qianqian nodded. She found a quiet corner and let out a long sigh of relief. Looking at Mo Yanfan in the distance, she began to think of a reason to reject him.
While she was deep in thought, she didn't notice that a man and a woman were holding each other's arms as they walked in.
Surrounded by the lights, Lin Jinya seemed to enjoy the envious gazes of the crowd. She held Gu Hecheng's arm tightly.
Gu Hecheng's dark eyes didn't reveal any emotions. He just casually looked at the venue.
However, with just one glance, Gu Hecheng was deeply attracted to a figure not far away.
Shen Qianqian? What was she doing here?
Gu Hecheng resisted the urge to rush up to her. He turned his head calmly and pretended to be calm.
Shen Qianqian was so immersed in her own troubles that she did not notice the venomous gaze that had landed on her.
When she got up and wanted to take a walk, a thin figure in a bright red dress suddenly blocked her way.
Shen Qianqian was stunned. She looked up and met Lin Jinya's resentful eyes.
"Shen Qianqian, what are you doing here?" Lin Jinya curled the corners of her mouth and asked with natural hostility.
"What does it have to do with you?" Shen Qianqian looked at her with disgust. She rudely bumped her shoulder and was about to leave with her head held high.
However, Lin Jinya wasn't going to let her off so easily. "Stop right there."
"Shen Qianqian, I have a piece of good news to share with you. Would you like to hear it?" Lin Jinya deliberately walked up to her and said with a provocative look, "Hecheng is going to marry me."
"Why? Are you surprised? Hecheng didn't tell you, did he? " Lin Jinya pretended to ignore the disgust in her eyes and said to herself, "That's true. Why would He Cheng tell you?"
Lin Jinya deliberately said, "You don't know how happy Hecheng is going to marry me. Of course, he won't remember you. Only I, his sister, will remember to tell you."
"Isn't that right, sister?" Lin Jinya called her sister softly. Suddenly, there was an inexplicable arrogance on her face.
It had been a long time since the two of them had addressed each other as sisters. It had been so long that Shen Qianqian had almost forgotten that they were sisters from the same father but different mothers.
Lin Jinya's provocative look suddenly pierced Shen Qianqian's heart. She felt that there was an inexplicable humiliation in her tone. That humiliation wasn't directed at her alone, but at her mother.
Shen Qianqian was a little absent-minded. She seemed to have seen her mother.
Perhaps back then, her mother had also been snatched away by Lin Yinya's mother and humiliated in such a manner.
