Chapter 8 Meng Xingqiu
The brain was filled with emotions, only anger.
Chu Jiao closed her eyes, pressed her beautiful nails tightly against the screen of her phone, trying to suppress her emotions.
The rumors came from inexplicable things, but Xie Yu's approach was as childish as adding fuel to the fire.
Chu Jiao naturally knew that Xie Yu's starting point was not malicious. He only stood from the perspective of the bystander watching the fun and didn't care about her at all.
I don't care about the relationship between her and others, nor do I care whether this matter is true or false.
This was the first time Chu Jiao held back and did not reply to Xie Yu's message, and she didn't know how to reply.
She deleted the chat box from the conversation record with a expressionless face, just as she thought she had never seen the message, and this incident had never happened.
The hot search on Weibo that was related to scandals was naturally still high, but Chu Jiao didn't read it again.
After all, Chu Jiao is just a screenwriter, so this matter will not have much impact on her. The one who should be anxious about the most should not be her, but the company and staff on Mu Yule's side.
Soon, Xinghan Media removed the hot searches and sent clarifications to deny the relationship, explaining that the two were just ordinary friends having a meal together.
Although Chu Jiao and Mu Yule are not friends, the official clarification can only be answered like this, and Chu Jiao naturally understands it.
This love story was not a joke, and after the company clarified it, everyone naturally believed it.
Yu Lelele: It’s clarified! Mom suddenly breathed a sigh of relief! You are still in the rising period, don’t fall in love, do a good job!
Spring Heart and Return: It’s boring, it’s gone, I thought there was something big.
Strawberry-flavored mood: Is that Chu Jiao really just a screenwriter? That face is so beautiful. I believe it if it is the heroine whom Mu Yule wants to partner with in the new drama:)
Autumn Harvest and Winter Collection: I too! I love beauty! I have followed her Weibo! The literary and elegant beauty is super attractive! Chu Jiao will enter the entertainment industry with her blood! (The key point is wrong)
Love every day: The two of them have a bloody letter! It would be a pity not to act in an idol drama with this face!
Qingzhi Oath: Three people’s blood letter! gkd! Just match Mu Yule directly, the handsome guy and beautiful girl’s faces are perfect matches!
...
After Xinghan Media clarified, the enthusiasm of the melon-eating crowd remained undiminished, and the focus was directly shifted to Chu Jiao.
Most of these comments were not malicious. Chu Jiao flipped through them casually and didn't read them any more. This matter came to an end.
But soon, another call came over.
The woman who called was named Chen Yuan, who was Meng Xingqiu's assistant.
"Miss Chu, we have received a notice that "The Last Woman in Spring" has obtained a release permit and it is estimated that it will be coming out in the next two days." On the other side of the phone, Chen Yuan's voice was polite and respectful, "Mr. Meng has arranged for someone to say hello on the theater chain. The screening rate of art films has never been high. This has been a long-term market problem, but we will try our best to win your movie."
This is the best news for Chu Jiao. Even the series of bad moods caused by the hot searches just now disappeared instantly.
She said happily: "It's really great, thank you for telling me this news."
Chen Yuan said in a cold voice: "Miss Chu doesn't need to thank me. I just do things as President Meng told me."
"That's right, I should thank him well." Chu Jiao naturally understood what Chen Yuan meant, so she followed the conversation, "By the way, I want to ask, do you know when Meng Xingqiu will return to China this time?"
"The specific time has not been decided. If Miss Chu wants to know, please go and ask Mr. Meng in person."
"Okay." Chu Jiao responded, thanked again, and then hung up the phone.
The movie got the issuance license earlier and smoother than expected. This incident made Chu Jiaoju very happy. At the same time, she also knew that Meng Xingqiu must have helped it.
Chu Jiao and Meng Xingqiu Ye Qingruan have known each other since high school that Meng Xingqiu is two years older than them, and has been taking care of them like brothers for so many years.
When Meng Xingqiu comes back, she must treat him to a meal and thank him.
Chu Jiao's hand slid gently on the screen and stayed on the WeChat page with Meng Xingqiu.
The last time the two chatted was more than a month ago. Meng Xingqiu asked her if she had any gifts she wanted before going abroad due to work.
Because the Meng family has a lot of cooperation in the international community, Meng Xingqiu has always been abroad frequently, but it is the first time that it takes more than a month to be so long. Could it be... something difficult to encounter?
Thinking of this, the phone call that Chu Jiao originally wanted to make turned into information to avoid disturbing Meng Xingqiu's work.
[Assistant Chen just told me that the release permit has been released! When will you return to China and invite you to dinner]
There is a time difference between home and abroad, so Chu Jiao is not in a hurry to wait for Meng Xingqiu's reply, but she didn't expect that he would reply to the message almost instantly.
【It may take some time.】
As soon as the message was received, the call came at the same time.
Chu Jiao answered the phone, and the man's voice was a little bit, calling her name.
Chu Jiao heard his fatigue, frowned slightly, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Is there any problem at work this time?"
"No, it's going well." Meng Xingqiu smiled, "I just want to report a happy marriage with you. My father is going to hand over the branch's largest cooperation case of the year to me, so I still have some things to deal with, and I may not be able to go back for the time being."
Chu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, "This is a good thing."
The Meng family has two sons, and the competition for inheritance rights has always been particularly fierce.
Now that Meng's father asked Meng Xingqiu to go to Country Y to deal with such an important matter, it also represents his attitude, and the balance of this battle of inheritance rights is already biased towards Meng Xingqiu.
Meng Xingqiu seemed not as happy as Chu Jiao thought, but changed the subject and asked: "I heard that you and Xie Yu are going to have a wedding."
"Yes, I will definitely arrange the front row for you and Ye Qingruan." When it comes to this, Chu Jiao's mood is still somewhat subtle, and she seems to be more shy than distress.
Silence for a few seconds.
Meng Xingqiu's voice was a little hoarse, "I actually just want to tell you about this. I can't get away with it, and I may not be able to attend your wedding at that time."
Chu Jiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's okay, work is more important. But even if you can't come, I will leave you a place next to Ye Qingruan. After all, you two are my best friends."
"Okay." Meng Xingqiu responded.
Until the phone hung up, the man looked at the several contracts in front of him indifferently and put down his phone.
According to the time in China, it is almost twelve o'clock now, but he is not at all sleepy.
In fact, he just lied to Chu Jiao.
The work here only takes half a month at most, and it is not very difficult, not as difficult as he said.
So he had no time to attend Chu Jiao's wedding.
But...he doesn't want to.
The slender eyes narrowed slightly, with indescribable coldness and depression.
As long as he thought of Chu Jiao marrying someone like Xie Yu, he felt it was unbearable, let alone to go to the wedding scene to bless them.
In Meng Xingqiu's eyes, Xie Yu was completely unworthy of Chu Jiao.
And the benefits that the Xie family can give to the Chu family are the same as those of his Meng family.
As long as Meng Xingqiu thought, he had some ways to stop the wedding, but he didn't do it, and he couldn't do it either.
Because Meng Xingqiu knew that Chu Jiao liked Xie Yu.
Chu Jiao thought it was her own secret, and even Ye Qingruan had hidden it, but Meng Xingqiu saw it, and only he could see it.
Because Chu Jiao likes Xie Yu, just like he likes Chu Jiao, she is so careful and hides it in a thousand ways and dare not expose her any of it.
To some extent, there is a bit ridiculous and subtle mutual compassion.
Meng Xingqiu knew that Chu Jiao had been looking forward to this wedding for a long time. Since it was what she wanted, he would never stop it.
Even if the person she married was not him.
