Chen Mu is not a sentimental person, but he can't help but feel emotional when he personally witnesses lovers unable to get married.
Everyone present could see that there was endless affection between Shen Lang and Qin Yao in every look they looked at each other. It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people. Every word they said at this time was polite and they kept their distance from beginning to end.
The weird atmosphere was not broken until Xu Ying came over. For some unknown reason, she had been standing far away for a few minutes, giving Shen Lang a chance to talk to Qin Yao.
"What are you doing standing around? Come and sit down."
Xu Ying actually felt a little guilty. Although she didn't know what happened to Chen Mu after the dinner party, she knew very well that Chen Mu and others would definitely find out about her sudden romance with Shen Lang and the scandal between Jiang Haocheng and his brother.
"I'm sorry for neglecting you two. Mr. Wang, Xiaoxi, please come."
After hearing Xu Ying's greeting, Shen Lang seemed to notice Chen Mu and woke up from the state of being obsessed with Qin Yao.
"We're just going to come over and see where we've been photographed. You're all doing your thing, you're all your own people, you're welcome."
"Yeah, if the filming process is delayed because of us, we can't afford it."
After hearing Chen Mu's words, Qin Yao interjected. With Xu Ying by his side, Shen Lang didn't force anything, and just told Chen Mu and others to visit as they pleased.
Chen Mu was really rude. Before entering the crew, he had already received feedback from secret channels. The original sources of the hit movie could not be found due to various reasons, which made him more sure of his guess. So I walked around, planning to get familiar with everyone in the company, and prepare for the next step of supervising the original film source.
As the third largest shareholder of the company, Chen Mu would give cordial condolences to every staff member he met. Naturally, I was invited to "inspect the work" at the editing center.
Li Luo followed Chen Mu happily, and they both coexisted in harmony. However, she was more sensitive to emotions than Chen Mu. She had long noticed that Qin Yao deliberately fell behind them, looking completely absent-minded. And peeked back. In the distant shooting location, Director Shen's attention was also swept frequently.
Chen Mu walked around the theater and finally circled back to the Jinhui Hotel, which is the place where the heroine in the film was booked. It is actually the property of Xu Ying's family.
The scenery around the hotel is really good, and the vast botanical garden makes everyone who watches it feel relaxed and happy. Before leaving, Chen Mu and Li Luo went to the rooftop to look out. When they lowered their heads, they unexpectedly saw a man and a woman on the balcony, right below them.
"Are they getting back together?"
Chen Mu was very surprised. It was Qin Yao and Shen Lang who entered the balcony one after another.
"It doesn't look like it. Look, there is always more than three steps between them. If it was a private meeting between men and women, they shouldn't have gone so far."
Li Luo refuted Chen Mu's guess. Even as dream interpreters, they were very rude when they were alone, let alone Shen Langliang, who was an ordinary person?
Moreover, although Shen Lang still has feelings for each other, they have just experienced the confession turmoil, and Shen Lang has a real heroine. Will Qin Yao wrong her?
Afraid of making any noise that would embarrass the people below, Chen and Mu stopped talking and stood by the railing to watch, wanting to see how things would develop.
On the balcony, Qin Yao is on the left and Shen Lang is on the right, standing by the guardrail more than one meter apart. Looking into the distance with the same posture, no one said a word, they were like two wax figures.
"Shen Lang, is there anything you regret in your heart?"
I don't know how long it took, Qin Yao asked without looking back, her tone was full of passion, but she was clearly pretending to be calm.
"It's hard to have the best of both worlds in this world, but we often lose something and gain something in vain. I feel that as long as people live according to their own wishes, there is nothing to regret."
"Live according to your own wishes? It's easy to say. How many of the seven billion people in the world can live according to their own wishes?"
"It sounds difficult."
"Really? Then let me ask you, my wish is to find the man I love to start a family and live together for the rest of my life. For this wish, I gave up the reserve and dignity that a woman should have, but he rejected me. In the blink of an eye, I found another woman. Do you think I can live according to my own wishes?"
Shen Lang's heart was trembling, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment. Rejecting Qin Yao was his biggest regret. However, the matter has come to this, he and Xu Ying have already cooked the rice, so what if they regret it? As a man, should I be irresponsible and abandon my girlfriend?
"Shen Lang, I am very unwilling."
Seeing that Shen Lang remained silent for a long time, Qin Yao continued: "As you said, people must live according to their own wishes, otherwise they will not be happy in their lives. Today, I bring my last dignity and last courage , decided to try again.
You said, if the man I love has a fiancée, and I am willing to be his underground lover without fighting for it, will he agree? "
Shen Lang's heart trembled, and then he felt cramps. Turning his head to look at the woman, he knew that this profile look looking into the distance would never be forgotten in his life.
"Regret is not a kind of beauty. Qin Yao, look forward. There are no obstacles in life that you can't overcome. Don't do stupid things. When it gets over, you will find that we don't need to compromise."
"thank you, I know now."
Qin Yao's tone suddenly became cold, and she looked back at Shen Lang, with a sad smile on her face: "It's getting late, I have an engagement party tonight, so I'll leave first. By the way, I wish you all the best, and wish me the best. Bar."
After saying that, Qin Yao turned around and left resolutely, her back looking lonely and lonely. No one noticed that she lowered her head slightly, with a smile of successful conspiracy hidden in her eyes.
"bless!"
Shen Lang was lost in thought, struggling and cramping in his heart that no one knew about. He wanted to rush up and hug the other person and tell the woman he loved that he was willing. I am willing to marry a beautiful woman and spend a lifetime together.
But he knew he couldn't. He has no qualifications or ability to wrong the daughter of the Qin family, and the world does not allow it. He cannot harm others or himself. In the end, Shen Lang didn't say anything until Qin Yao disappeared.
"It's fate. If you are braver, even if you can't be together openly, your underground lover can be regarded as consensual. How could Shen Lang refuse?"
Li Luo sighed in a low voice. In this dream world, the laws of most countries stipulated monogamy, but in fact, there were many lovers. She did not understand Shen Lang's rejection. As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she immediately realized that her boyfriend's peach blossom debt was no less than that of Shen Lang, so don't let him misunderstand anything.
"Maybe it's because he thinks that would hurt Qin Yao."
Chen Mu had nothing to say, and just gently held Li Luo in his arms. What he heard and saw reminded him of his "sister", and he could empathize with Shen Lang's helplessness.
"It's just a dream after all, don't get too involved. Our target is Liu Ziye. You have time to enlighten Shen Lang. We can't make any mistakes in the film."
"You can't rush the movie. There's plenty of time in dreams, so take your time."
Chen Mu didn't want to stay in a dream for a long time. Even if he was accompanied by his girlfriend and she restored her appearance every night to cooperate with him, the emotional tone of this dream was too depressing.
After leaving the crew, Chen Mu took the two girls to Guild Hall No. 1, a quiet and elegant place. This was Qin Yao's request. She originally invited her best friend Zhou Xiaoxi to accompany her to relax, but Chen Mu just acted as the driver.
"By the way, Xiaoxi, how did you and Mr. Wang get together? We didn't receive any news before. Was it arranged by the elders in the family?"
During the boring journey, Qin Yao suddenly asked Li Luo. Li Luo glanced at Chen Mu subconsciously and hesitated on how to answer. Because of Jiang Nan's possession and departure, even if she was possessed again, Qin Yao had no memory of nearly a month. It is rare to be able to get along with them continuously now.
"Let's just say it first and then tell the story later. I established the relationship with him first. By the time my family wanted to object, it was already too late."
"That's free love! You guys are really enviable. But, Xiaoxi, Mr. Wang is a well-known national husband, so you have to take good care of him."
For some unknown reason, Qin Yao's words were filled with cynicism and hostility when it came to Chen Mu. Li Luo didn't mind either. He pretended that the other party didn't know Chen Mu's true identity and smiled softly to speak for the man.
"That was all in the past. People need to grow and will always change. I believe in him."
"Yes, you change so quickly. You were trying to rob Shen Lang from me before, but in the end he chose a woman who was a playboy."
Speaking of Shen Lang, Qin Yao's face showed sadness. Li Luo was also curious about how Qin Yao felt about Shen Lang.
"What are you going to do next?"
"What else can we do? Me, you, and Chu He, all three of us fell in love with him at the beginning. You had a keen eye for people, quietly withdrew from the competition, and found a better man. Chu He was disheartened. Leng, I don’t know where I went. I’m the only one who is still persisting stupidly, and even... I’m even willing to be an underground lover.”
Qin Yao said mockingly to herself, and Li Luo pretended to be surprised: "Do you really have such an idea?"
"Even if I have it, what's the use? He and I are destined to be destined to be together in this life. My parents arranged a blind date for me, just tonight. The man is also from a family within the system. It is said to be a blind date, but in fact it is a marriage. If nothing else happens, , I should get married to him."
"Then you...don't want to resist?"
"Why should I resist?"
Qin Yao smiled lonely, her smile was heart-wrenching: "In the past, I could say it was for Shen Lang, for the freedom of love, but it's a pity that they don't want me. A woman's youth is very short, and I am not young anymore. I have enough fun. That's it. At least I can have a family and a stable marriage. Divorce usually doesn't happen in a marriage like ours."
Li Luo felt sympathy. As both women, she understood each other very well. A man in a marriage is nothing more than a tool used by the family to seek benefits, not to mention a man he doesn't like, and there is almost no subsequent happiness. This life is over.
However, she didn't know how to comfort her. I want to persuade the other party to be brave, but Shen Lang already has a girlfriend. No matter how brave he is, he can still instigate Qin Yao to steal a man?
"Once you enter the Hou family, you will be as deep as the sea. There will be no chance to come out and be happy in the future. Xiaoxi, you are my best friend and my only best friend. You must accompany me well today.
Mr. Wang, I would like to announce to you that Xiaoxi belongs to me this afternoon. "
"As long as you are happy."
Seeing Qin Yao's loss and forced smile, Chen Mu couldn't bear it and stayed silently beside the two women, willing to be transparent for once.
