Chapter 40

Entrepreneurs, celebrities, college students, three different classes.

Xia Shutong immediately realized why the program group of “Adventures of Mountains and Rivers” made such arrangements.

First of all, this is a variety show for the purpose of public welfare, and it needs to attract investment to poor mountainous areas. If the quality of investment from the outside world is not good, then the two entrepreneurs participating in the show cannot turn a blind eye, right?

As for the stars, they are tools to attract traffic to this variety show. Otherwise, it would be difficult for a charity program with a serious tone to attract the attention of the public.

And college students…

Xia Shutong frowned slightly, a little puzzled, but she immediately saw the words on the planning sheet, “In order to encourage contemporary college students to actively participate in the five-go-to-the-country activities, contribute to the development of remote mountainous areas, and guide the development of rural economy and culture, two college students as guests of the program.”

…As expected of the official six stations.

Xia Shutong lowered her eyes and began to think.

Although participating in the six programs is not considered an in-depth cooperation, but as long as there is the first cooperation, will the second and third times be far behind?

Besides, since Xia Shutong took over Tianjun and Wutong, the reputation of the two companies in the industry has not been very good. The whitewashing of the fruit basket incident last time was simply a small matter of netizens, which had no effect. But this collaboration with “Landscape” is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to whitewash.

But the problem is…

Zhou Hanchi, Ouyang Chao.

One is the marriage partner chosen by Mr. Xia for Xia Shutong, and the other is a big fool who seems to be interested in Yun Feiwu.

These two people… Xia Shutong doesn’t want to get close to anyone.

“Mr. Xia?” Seeing Xia Shutong’s tangled expression, Jiang Chun continued, “Don’t worry, although we are a public welfare project, the remuneration we should give will not be less. The remuneration of Ms. Yun and Mr. Ouyang is based on Based on the normal standard in the industry, there will never be a single slack.”

“It’s a public welfare program itself, and the remuneration is secondary.” Xia Shutong hesitated for a moment and asked, “Ms. Jiang, what are we going to do as guests of “Shanchuan”?”

On the planning sheet, there is only a simple sentence “six people experience rural life together”, but the specific method of experience is not mentioned at all.

“Please rest assured Mr. Xia, because of the audience, our program will not be too boring, and we will not deliberately make it difficult for the guests.” Jiang Chun said with a smile, “The guests only need to enjoy the rural life while completing the program. Just a fun task for the group.”

Xia Shutong nodded, and continued to read the introduction on the project list.

There are four episodes in each part of the program, one episode per week, and there will be two days off after the shooting of each episode.

In fact, Xia Shutong is quite looking forward to it if he really just enjoys rural life. After all, she had worked day and night for so long a few days ago, and she really wanted to take a vacation for herself to relax.

And… the temptation to be able to stay with Yun Feiwu for a whole month is too great.

Xia Shutong seems to be able to imagine as soon as she closes her eyes, they live together, buy vegetables at the market in the village, cook together at the stove, sit together on the edge of the boundless field, and watch the **** blossoms in the distance. scene.

As for Zhou Hanchi and Ouyang Chao… Forget it, anyway, Xia Yuansi will be hooked soon, and she may have officially confessed to Yun Feiwu that they are together, and she will not hide it from Mr. Xia anymore. It’s an eyesore, and it won’t last long.

In this way, Xia Shutong and Jiang Chun settled the matter.

…

After walking out of the lounge, Xia Shutong originally wanted to leave the banquet hall, but was stopped by someone.

Standing behind her, Huang Qiongyi asked a little nervously, “President Xia, do you have time now?”

“Huh?” Xia Shutong raised her eyes, but her gaze fell to Zhou Hanchi who was beside Huang Qiongyi.

Sensing what she meant, Huang Qiongyi hastily added: “I have something to talk to you about, so let’s just talk about it… about Yunyun.”

Clouds are not fog?

Xia Shutong remembered that Yun Feiwu said that her former manager was very kind to her and took good care of her all the time.

So Xia Shutong nodded immediately without thinking, “Okay.”

The two walked towards the corner of the corridor.

“Ms. Huang, please tell me.” Xia Shutong leaned against the wall with his arms folded in front of him, with a frivolous expression.

I can’t explain why, when Xia Shutong saw Huang Qiongyi in the photo, she just felt familiar, but when she got in close contact with her, Xia Shutong instinctively felt kind.

Is it because…I actually knew Huang Qiongyi before?

Xia Shutong recalled roughly in his mind.

In the behind-the-scenes video of “Darkness”, I was sitting next to Yun Feiwu, and Huang Qiongyi was standing beside Yun Feiwu as Yun Feiwu’s assistant at that time. In other words, Huang Qiongyi may really know the former Xia Ruan.

I don’t know if Huang Qiongyi has seen her a few times before and will recognize her.

As a result, the smile in Xia Shutong’s eyes grew wider, and her expressions and actions became more frivolous and arrogant.

In the empty corridor, Huang Qiongyi subconsciously took half a step back, and after keeping a relatively safe distance from Xia Shutong, she asked, “Mr. Xia, how is she doing after arriving in Wutong?”

“What does Ms. Huang think?” Xia Shutong raised her eyebrows.

“I feel…it should be pretty good.” Huang Qiongyi smiled, “When I went to visit the crew last time, she looked much better than before, and there were more smiles on her face. When she was in our company before, it was rare. Smile from the bottom of your heart.”

Xia Shutong was taken aback for a moment, she thought that although Yun Feiwu was cold in front of outsiders, he should be different in front of those close to him. But according to Huang Qiongyi, Yun Feiwu was… so indifferent even in private?

Huang Qiongyi gave a wry smile, and continued: “So this time, I wanted to thank Mr. Xia in private. I was worried that Yunyun would have a bad life in Wutong. After all, Wutong is a big company. You are busy with work, so you don’t care To every artist. But after Yunyun and Ouyang were rumored to be scandalous, you actually called me to ask if I could send a group photo to clarify the scandal for Yunyun, I knew that you cared about her very much.”

“…It should be.” Xia Shutong said lightly, “I personally dug Wutong for Empress Yun Ying, and I will never neglect her.”

“Mr. Xia, I can see that you are cold on the outside and warm on the inside.” Huang Qiongyi smiled, “It was the same during the visit. That boy Ouyang sent me several WeChat messages, saying that you have a good relationship with Yunyun.”

Having said that, Huang Qiongyi lowered her head slightly and her voice stopped.

Xia Shutong saw that she hesitated to speak: “Ms. Huang, if you have anything to say, just say it.”

“President Xia, does Yunyun… like you?”

Xia Shutong immediately raised her eyes and looked directly into Huang Qiongyi’s eyes.

Huang Qiongyi smiled awkwardly, and said: “I have been with Yunyun for so many years, and I know her better. I saw the photo of you tying scarves with each other on the day you visited the class… In these years, Yunyun has never been with anyone Having been so close, I can understand her thoughts at a glance. Although I have no blood relationship with her, I have always regarded her as my own sister. As a sister, I have something to say to Mr. Xia. ”

“Mr. Xia, thank you very much for bringing Yunyun out of the shadows of the past. But if you also like Yunyun, can you treat her better? … In fact, she has always been very pitiful and lacks love. child.”

Speaking of the latter, Huang Qiongyi’s voice trembled a little, and her eyes were full of sadness.

“What do you mean?” Xia Shutong’s eyes sharpened for a moment, and then he immediately restrained himself, “I mean… Yun Yinghou, did she have any bad experiences in the past?”

Why doesn’t she know anything about it?

“When Yunyun retired from filming at the age of 15, it was true that our company experienced some bad things because of his dereliction of duty.” Huang Qiongyi sighed, “I won’t go into details, but with Mr. Xia’s power, we should find out.”

The reason why Huang Qiongyi didn’t say anything was very simple. Not long after that incident happened, all the insiders were paid a hush money, and their company even signed a contract, promising not to disclose any details.

…even though they don’t even know who exactly the hush money is being paid for.

Xia Shutong: …?

No, she couldn’t find out.

When she searched Yun Feiwu’s information before, she only knew that Yun Feiwu had passed away due to studies at the age of fifteen, and then came back two years later. On the Internet, there are different opinions on this matter. Some say that Yun Feiwu was injured while filming, some say that Xinghui’s internal struggle hid Yun Feiwu, and some said that it was the year when Ouyang Chao started to become popular, and Yun Feiwu Annoyed the “Prince”, had to be hidden.

In short, there are all kinds of arguments, but no matter what Xia Shutong did later, even if he used the resources of Wutong and Tianjun, he couldn’t find any problems. Therefore, Xia Shutong didn’t think much about it at all. She always simply believed that Yun Feiwu’s resignation at that time was really just for academic reasons.

But now hearing what Huang Qiongyi said, Xia Shutong felt weird. It was as if, like her own past, this incident had been artificially erased.

And Yun Feiwu never mentioned it to her.

Xia Shutong was silent for a few seconds, then said after consideration: “Don’t worry, Ms. Huang, I will do my best to treat her well.”

Anyway, I can’t think of a reason here, so it’s better to think slowly after going home.

Huang Qiongyi nodded: “That’s good…Thank you again, Mr. Xia.”

After chatting casually for a few more words, the two said goodbye and left.

…

After Xia Shutong returned home, she sat at the table in distress and drew two timelines with a pen and paper.

The first is her life trajectory.

She was raised by Wang Xiaoning in Yuncheng until she was ten years old, when Wang Xiaoning passed away. According to the filming time of “Darkness”, she should have met Yun Feiwu one day after she was ten years old and before she was nineteen years old.

After she turned nineteen, she returned to Haicheng. And after that, all the traces she left in Yuncheng were erased by Mr. Xia.

At the age of 21, she began to take over Indus.

At the age of 22, 18-year-old Yun Feiwu came to Haicheng to go to school, found her, and kept in touch with her secretly.

At the age of twenty-four, he married twenty-year-old Yun Feiwu.

After writing this, Xia Shutong rubbed the center of her brows, and drew a second line.

Clouds are not foggy.

Yun Feiwu was born in Yuncheng. At the age of thirteen, he participated in the filming of “Darkness”. And at that time, she already knew Xia Ruan.

Immediately afterwards, when Yun Feiwu was fifteen years old, he quit the showbiz for unknown reasons and announced his retirement from filming.

At the age of seventeen, he started acting again for unknown reasons.

At the age of eighteen, he went to Haicheng to study in university, and met Xia Shutong.

Twenty years old, married Xia Shutong.

…

The two lines are parallel to each other. After Xia Shutong finished writing, she immediately discovered that besides the two points in time when they met and got married in Haicheng, there were two other overlaps.

The first one is the year when Yun Feiwu disappeared, which happened to be the year when Xia Shutong returned to Haicheng. The second is the year when Yun Feiwu returned to the entertainment industry, which also happened to be the year when Xia Shutong took over Wutong.

Is it just a coincidence?

Xia Shutong licked her lips and suddenly had a guess.

Perhaps… the matter that made Yun Feiwu choose to take a rest was related to her and the Xia family. Therefore, no trace can be found.

But Xia Shutong couldn’t recall what happened in detail for the time being, and couldn’t find out, and Yun Feiwu never mentioned it to her.

But compared to the previous times when she was at a loss when she glimpsed her past, Xia Shutong was much calmer this time. If you can’t remember it, then don’t want to. Since Yun Feiwu hadn’t told her all this time, she must have a reason.

I just let nature take its course, or wait until one day suddenly, I remembered everything in the past; or wait until Yun Feiwu told her everything.

It doesn’t matter if you can’t remember it all the time, the past has passed, just cherish the present.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Yun Feiwu never mentioned their past to her.

…

A week later, “Saffron” finished, and Yun Feiwu returned to Haicheng.

Xia Shutong didn’t go to pick up the plane, but went to the private restaurant to order food first, and waited for Yun Feiwu in the private room.

Soon, Yun Feiwu pushed the door open and entered.

The moment Xia Shutong saw Yun Feiwu, Xia Shutong’s surprised expression immediately froze and became weird.

In early spring and March, the temperature in Haicheng was still not high, and the wind was freezing.

Xia Shutong was originally wearing a turtleneck sweater, but before going out, she specially added a coat, and she was just about to wrap it in a plush scarf.

However, Yun Feiwu was wearing a light-colored knee-length suspender skirt, and only a long transparent sunscreen gauze was casually worn outside, and the stockings on her legs were also very thin, which could not keep warm at all.

However, Yun Feiwu was obediently holding a scarf—the one Xia Shutong gave her.

“Sister.” Seeing Xia Shutong, the corners of Yun Feiwu’s lips curled up in a beautiful arc, and he walked towards Xia Shutong quickly.

The pace is light and somewhat cute.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t it good-looking?” After feeling Xia Shutong’s strange gaze, Yun Feiwu tilted his head and moved closer to Xia Shutong.

“Good-looking is good-looking…”

Yun Feiwu looks good in anything, but today’s skirt is especially fresh, with fluttering tassels under the gauze jacket. At first glance, it looks like a fairy walking out of the forest in the early morning.

“But…” Xia Shutong frowned, “Yun Feiwu, aren’t you cold?”

As she spoke, she reached out and touched Yun Feiwu’s arm.

With a thin layer of gauze, the touch is particularly delicate. As a result, Xia Shutong only touched it for a moment, and immediately withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

“It’s not cold.” Yun Feiwu held her hand instead, his voice lowered slightly, “I’m in good health, sister. It’s not like you don’t know.”

Xia Shutong shook her hand.

Yun Feiwu’s hands were indeed very warm, without a hint of coolness, but… what do I know!

In some respects, Yun Feiwu is really too much than before!

The warm feeling of reunion after a long absence was broken in this way, Xia Shutong gently shook off Yun Feiwu’s hand, and snorted softly: “I don’t care about you, anyway, take care of your own body, don’t catch a cold.”

“Oh~” Yun Feiwu leaned close to her ear, and said word by word, “Got it, thank you Xiao Xia for your concern.”

At this time, the bell for the waiter to serve food rang.

Xia Shutong immediately sat up straight, but Yun Feiwu leaned into her arms and buried his head in her chest.

This time the waiter was the girl from last time. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Yun Feiwu curled up in another woman’s arms in an extremely weak posture.

The waiter blinked, quickly put the dish on the table, and managed to control his eyes, not to glance over.

She didn’t know who that woman was last time, but two months ago, after she saw the video of Mr. Xia visiting Ban Yun Feiwu of Wutong Films on the Internet, she recognized it at a glance. This is Mr. Xia from last time. The woman who held hands with Yun Feiwu and ate together!

The waiter felt like he knew a big secret.

And just now, although Xia Shutong had a cold face and looked a little scary, his eyes were very gentle.

The domineering president’s queen wife?

It’s so good to drink!

…

Xia Shutong’s whole body was stiff, and it wasn’t until the waiter left that she gently pushed Yun Feiwu’s shoulder: “Yun Feiwu, I’ve been seen.”

“It’s just a hug, it’s okay.” Yun Feiwu rubbed and rubbed coquettishly, and his tone was soft, “And the waiters in this store have a very strict mouth, and they won’t spread it.”

Xia Shutong sighed softly, and sat back as if accepting her fate: “Yun Feiwu, don’t you feel that sometimes you are very annoying.”

“Really?” Yun Feiwu raised his voice, “Then Mr. Xia, are you willing to hit me?”

Xia Shutong: “…”

Before he had time to say anything, Xia Shutong suddenly felt that Yun Feiwu’s hand had touched her lower back at some point, and he pulled off the sweater bit by bit, directly touching the skin on her waist.

Xia Shutong just sat back a little, and now sat up straight like a conditioned reflex, his hands wanted to push Yun Feiwu away, but they couldn’t, so he had to retreat and hugged Yun Feiwu tightly neck.

Yun Feiwu’s head also slowly moved up, and finally rested his chin on Xia Shutong’s shoulder.

If someone came in from the outside at this time and saw this scene, they would only feel that the two were hugging affectionately.

However, only Xia Shutong could feel that Yun Feiwu pressed one hand tightly on the back of her neck, almost imprisoning her in his arms, unable to move. The other hand directly touched the skin of her back through her clothes, and kept going up, stroking gently.

itchy.

“Hmm…” Xia Shutong raised her head slightly, then lowered her head in shame, her eyes were red.

Yun Feiwu didn’t intend to stop at all, his fingers went up and down until he reached a certain button.

Xia Shutong finally shed two tears in shame, and her voice became more and more vague:

“Yun…Maomao, you, what are you doing?”

Yun Feiwu’s hand retreated at this moment.

She hugged Xia Shutong who was already limp into a ball, lowered her head, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Xia Shutong closed her eyes, without any intention of hiding.

Only then did a satisfied smile appear in Yun Feiwu’s eyes: “I just want to see… Is Mrs. Xiao Xia listening to me, resting well, and gaining weight? It seems that she listened.”

Xia Shutong closed her eyes and did not speak.

Indeed, during the period since she took full control of the company, her daily workload was not heavy, and the few catties she lost at the beginning have almost grown back.

It’s just that she doesn’t want to talk about Yun Feiwu now.

Wolf cubs are so annoying.

It wasn’t until she felt Yun Feiwu’s fingers slowly touching her cheek that Xia Shutong opened her eyes suddenly, opened her hand angrily, and withdrew from her arms again.

“Yun Feiwu, we haven’t seen each other for two months, are you treating me like this?”

Yun Feiwu blinked innocently: “What’s the matter? It’s because I haven’t seen you for a long time that I want to get close to President Xiao Xia.”

Xia Shutong took a deep breath and poked Yun Feiwu’s cheek until she was facing the dining table: “Eat!”

“Hmm~” Yun Feiwu suppressed a smile, and obediently withdrew his attention to the dinner table.

A meal is a long one.

It was almost ten o’clock when the two left the restaurant.

It was the company’s car that brought Yun Feiwu here just now, so Xia Shutong was the one who took her home on the way back.

After the car stopped downstairs, Yun Feiwu took off his seat belt, but he still had no intention of leaving.

Xia Shutong lowered her head slightly to avoid Yun Feiwu’s scorching gaze.

“I won’t go up today. Yun Feiwu… You go back and have a good rest. We’ll see you in three days.”

Three days later, it was the day when they went to participate in “Adventures of Mountains and Rivers” together.

Yun Feiwu still didn’t move, his eyes were burning, and he seemed aggrieved.

It’s like a silent condemnation.

Xia Shutong lowered her head and thought for a while. Indeed, she and Yun Feiwu were separated for two months, and after only one meal, she was about to drive him home. Isn’t it too cold-blooded and heartless?

Xia Shutong rubbed her fingers together and thought for a long time, Yun Feiwu also sat quietly and watched her for a long time.

In the end, Xia Shutong unbuckled his seat belt and leaned towards Yun Feiwu.

Under the dim light inside the car, Yun Feiwu smiled ambiguously, and his gray eyes twinkled like stars.

“Yun Feiwu.” Xia Shutong licked his lips nervously, “Close your eyes.”

Yun Feiwu closed his eyes obediently.

And the next moment, Xia Shutong put his hands on her shoulders, and pressed his soft lips against hers.

Xia Shutong’s lips were still a little wet.

Soft and sweet.

Just stick it lightly.

Just when Yun Feiwu thought that Xia Shutong was about to withdraw, he suddenly felt that she suddenly stretched out the tip of her tongue and traced it carefully on her lips.

It didn’t use much strength, it was soft as hell, just like Xia Shutong.

Very comfortable.

Yun Feiwu’s closed eyes bent unconsciously.

I don’t know if the current Xia Shutong is blushing and looking at her cautiously.

After a kiss, Xia Shutong returned to his original position and rubbed Yun Feiwu’s head again: “Take a good rest and see you in three days.”

This time Yun Feiwu nodded obediently like a big dog, his eyes were gentle and caring, but he didn’t stop any longer, and obediently got out of the car.

Looking at Yun Feiwu’s receding figure, Xia Shutong was in a complicated mood.

When Yun Feiwu was well-behaved, he was like a big obedient and sensible dog, the kind who could do whatever he wanted. But when he is not well-behaved, he is just a wolf cub with a black heart and a bad heart.

…what if I’m a bit tempted to buy a dog training guidebook?

The author has something to say: In fact, when she was a child, Xia Ruan wanted to call Yun Feiwu a dog, but she thought that a dog didn’t sound good, so she changed it to a cat.
