President Li from Hongtian Entertainment was sipping tea in the director’s room, with his tea in hand, he began walking about, then started a polite conversation with the director, “Director Sun, you’ve been too brilliant these recent years. The few popular blockbuster films all came from your hands, in the future I hope you’ll continue to cultivate the newcomers from Hongtian, and let them have the golden chance to show their faces in your productions.”
”President Li, you’re too kind, but having you visit me here today so suddenly was really quite shocking, was the person with you Young Master Jiang?”
”That’s right.”
”Huh?” Director Sun’s face was covered in a shocked expression, “He and Little Shen are…??”
”Mmhmm.”
Director Sun instantly put on a I-know-what-you-mean expression, “It’s really quite impossible to find any untouched kids in entertainment these days, even one with such a great personality and diligence like Little Shen is also being ‘sponsored’, it never even crossed my mind.”
President Li almost choked on his sip of tea, “What are you thinking about, they’re a legitimate and official husband-and-wife duo.”
”What???”
President Li placed his cup of tea back onto the table, “Actually, I didn’t know anything about this, and things that aren’t really big and mind-boggling don’t spread so fast ah. Just as I was wrapping up a meeting at the company when Jiang Haofeng called me. He sounded distressed and was a bit impatient on the phone, he told me that his wife had just gotten into an accident on set. I was really shocked by this, for something to make Young Master Jiang so worried it must be a severe fall right, so I hurriedly joined Jiang Haofeng on the way here. He even brought a doctor along, yet when we arrived, all we saw was Little Shen hugging his blanket sleeping peacefully. Once his doctor checked to make sure nothing was wrong, the guy then left immediately on a flight.”
Director Sun’s plump fleshy face seemed to spasm a little, “That’s, that’s quite endearing of them.”
President Li sat down again and poured himself another cup of tea, “Even though I’m not at work 24/7, but I’m still quite busy, yet look at how I was dragged into coming to see his wife, I really need to keep him in check.”
The next day, Shen Shujie felt much better after waking up from a good night’s sleep. With his eyes still closed, he felt about beside him, and as soon as his fingers came into contact with Jiang Haofeng’s body, he slowly began to wriggle towards that direction, eventually squirming his way into Haofeng’s embrace, “What are you doing?”
”Finishing up some work.” Jiang Haofeng took a moment to put aside the documents in his hand, “Do you feel better?”
”Much better, are you going back today?”
”Mmm.”
After getting up, Shen Shujie warmed his muscles up, even though his entire body was still aching, but it wasn’t as bad as before. Jiang Haofeng saw how he seemed alright, and discreetly let out a sigh of relief, he planned on having breakfast first before leaving.
During breakfast, they crossed paths with President Li, Director Sun and Chen Yi. President Li even came over to ask about Shen Shujie’s body, then he turned to speak to Jiang Haofeng, “You’re leaving after you finish eating right?”
”Mmhmm.”
Chen Yi took the initiative to step forward and greet Jiang Haofeng, “Young Master Jiang.”
Jiang Haofeng nodded his head in reply. Chen Yi could see that he had no intention of continuing the conversation so he didn’t say anything else, instead he turned aside and enquired about Shen Shujie’s current condition.
Shen Shujie was more respectful towards Chen Yi, and he hastily shook his head, “Everything is alright Elder Brother Yi, I won’t let things on my side delay the schedule.”
Chen Yi patted him on the shoulder before replying, “Rest is important.”
Shen Shujie felt this was a rare opportunity, so he invited the three of them to join them for breakfast.
Once seated Jiang Haofeng did not open his mouth at all, and because the other 4 were in the same industry, they had a lot to talk about. Furthermore, Shen Shujie had an eager-to-learn attitude plus a desire to ask Chen Yi for advice, so even though their mealtime was short, Shen Shujie still felt that he had benefited greatly from it. Chen Yi saw how willing to learn he was and was encouraged to teach him some more, “I have some free time at night, we can continue our discussion then. To be honest, acting isn’t hard, in your case you’ve always been looking in the wrong direction.”
Shen Shujie hastily thanked him for this.
After the meal ended and everyone had left, Shen Shujie tugged at Jiang Haofeng, he wanted to walk together with him, but Young Master Jiang sat there immobile.
Shen Shujie saw the expression of displeasure on his face and instantly knew what was wrong with him, so he quickly began to pull on Jiang Haofeng’s hand trying to ingratiate himself to him.
The glare Jiang Haofeng shot his way was extremely frigid as he shot out, “I’m leaving.”
Then, he rose from his seat and turned to leave.
Shen Shujie really had no idea on how to deal with his awkward yet touchy personality, but he still scrambled to chase after him. Then he dragged the person into a corner, but Jiang Haofeng just stared at him with a solemn poker-face expression.
Shen Shujie didn’t let him have any chance at speaking, but straightaway cradled Haofeng’s face with both his hands, and pressed a kiss to his face on his tiptoes, “Hubby, it was my mistake, don’t be angry okay?”
Jiang Haofeng was still extremely unhappy, so he immediately pushed Shen Shujie up against the wall, forcefully sucking on that tender yet mischievous tongue of his. His voice was hoarse when he replied, “Continue the discussion at night?”
”We’ll only talk during the daytime, I promise!”
After he left the filming location and boarded his flight, Jiang Haofeng chatted with President Li for a while. Suddenly he asked, “Does Chen Yi have any skeletons in his closet?”
President Li mulled over it, “No, and at Chen Yi’s level even if there were any skeletons to hide they would have been dealt with by now, why do you ask?”
Young Master Jiang thought to himself, Nothing really, it’s just that my wife seems to look up to him a lot, and that makes me unhappy. If I can dig up some of the skeletons in his closet, then I can talk trash about him whenever I want.
