Volume 4: Counterattack: Bright Star Road Chapter 223 A Talent Show Full of Beautiful Women
After dinner, Zhu Suosuo returned home. Everyone chatted for a while and then went back to their rooms to rest. Yuan Xudong and Jiang Nansun slept in the master bedroom, Zhu Suosuo slept in the second bedroom, Luo Xi and Xiaohong slept in the guest room. There was a nanny, a male host, and three female hosts. Such a strange family became quiet, with only the lights in the living room still on.
In the master bedroom, Yuan Xudong was lying in bed with Jiang Nansun in his arms. Jiang Nansun blushed and whispered:
"Xudong, go to the lock room and sleep!"
"What's wrong?"
Yuan Xudong gently stroked Jiang Nansun's body, rested his chin on her head, hugged her from the front and said softly:
"Isn't it good for me to accompany you like this?"
Looking up at Yuan Xudong, Jiang Nansun leaned into his arms and whispered:
"Go and keep Suosuo company!"
"You're so nice to your sister?"
Looking at Jiang Nansun's blushing face, Yuan Xudong gently pressed her down and said jokingly:
"Don't you want to serve me?"
"No!"
Turning her head, with her hands on Yuan Xudong's chest, Jiang Nansun said in a trembling voice:
"The doctor said I can't have sex with you. Can you go find Suosuo?"
Looking at the shy Jiang Nansun, Yuan Xudong leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words. Jiang Nansun glared at him fiercely, blushing and saying:
"No, absolutely not. How can you treat others like this?"
"Good Nansun, will you just promise me?"
Yuan Xudong hugged Jiang Nansun's body and said softly and hard:
"I promise, just this once, okay?"
"don't want!"
"Then I will go to your mother and tell her that you bullied me and don't want to marry me!"
"You dare?"
"See if I dare!"
Looking at the shy and angry Jiang Nansun, Yuan Xudong hugged her body and said with a smile:
"I haven't seen my father-in-law and mother-in-law for a long time. I will visit your house tomorrow. I heard that you are always angry and spend money recklessly. You have bought a lot of jewelry at home and you are not satisfied. You ask me for hundreds of millions of pocket money every day to squander!"
"You...you wronged me!"
"How did I wrong you?"
After glaring at Jiang Nansun, Yuan Xudong pressed her body and said jokingly:
"Your bills for this month were sent to my phone. You spent more than two million yuan in total, including clothes, bags, and jewelry. I remember when you were with Zhang Anren, you said that love is enough to satisfy your hunger, but indifference is enough to keep you warm. You are so good at spending money. If you were with him, would you quarrel every day?"
"Don't mention him!"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Jiang Nansun defended herself:
"These two million yuan were not spent by me alone. They were considered as the family's public expenses. They included property management fees, hiring a nanny for Luo Xi, renting a house, buying clothes, bags, and jewelry, etc. You are not allowed to accuse me of wasting money!"
"Yeah?"
Looking at Jiang Nansun who was still stubborn, Yuan Xudong said with a half-smile:
"Then tell me, how much money did you spend on yourself? Did you use your money for personal gain?"
"No!"
Jiang Nansun glared at Yuan Xudong and pouted her lips pretending to be angry:
"You can check the accounts, I can't remember them anyway!"
"Just keep talking tough!"
Pinching Jiang Nansun's cheeks, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but teasing her:
"You go shopping with Suosuo every week. Every time you go shopping, you have to do skin care, do your hair, buy clothes, and buy a lot of cosmetics and skin care products. The money you spend is several times more expensive than your Ora Black Cat. If I were an ordinary working class, I would work myself to death every month and still couldn't afford to support a princess like you!"
"Hate!"
Pushing away Yuan Xudong's right hand, Jiang Nansun pouted and said coquettishly:
"What do you mean? Are you going to limit my spending?"
"Don't you understand what I mean?"
Yuan Xudong lay on his back on the bed, hugged Jiang Nansun gently and smiled:
"I'm so good to you, shouldn't you repay me?"
"I don't want it!"
After hitting Yuan Xudong's chest twice, Jiang Nansun said angrily:
"Why are you so perverted?"
"Who's perverted?"
Rolling his eyes at Jiang Nansun, Yuan Xudong deliberately provoked her:
"Ye Jinyan is planning to launch a library project and is collaborating with the Magic City School of Architecture to develop some kind of humanistic care project. Professor Dong and his student Wang Yongzheng, as well as Professor Yang and his student Zhang Anren, are both candidates for library designers. When it comes time to vote, which one do you want me to vote for? Your senior brother Wang Yongzheng, or your ex-boyfriend Zhang Anren?"
"Vote for whichever one is suitable!"
Jiang Nansun rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, then lay on top of him, holding his neck with both hands and said with a smile:
"Are you jealous?"
"What a joke! Why would I be jealous?"
"You're just jealous!"
Lying on top of Yuan Xudong, Jiang Nansun pinched a handful of hair and scratched his face, smiling:
"Stingy guy, there's nothing wrong between me, Wang Yongzheng, and Zhang Anren. I won't talk about Wang Yongzheng, he's my senior brother, and he's just my senior brother. As for Zhang Anren, I did like him before, but it's all in the past. I heard that he and Yuan Yuan are married now, and they are very happy and loving now. They can be considered childhood sweethearts, and lovers finally get married!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong looking at her with burning eyes, Jiang Nansun blushed and said:
"When he and I were dating, we just held hands. You know my situation, so don't take advantage of me and act cute, okay?"
"Then I don't care. I just feel uncomfortable now!"
Rolling her eyes at Yuan Xudong who was playing rogue with her, Jiang Nansun hesitated for a moment, glanced at him and snuggled into the warm bed.
Yuan Xudong sat up, leaning against the pillow, squinting his eyes slightly and taking a breath of cool air from time to time.
Time passed. About half an hour later, Jiang Nansun threw back the quilt and got out of bed. With a flushed face, she rushed into the bathroom in the bedroom and retched a few times. After she rinsed her mouth, brushed her teeth, and washed her face, Yuan Xudong walked down from the bed in high spirits and said with a smile:
"Nansun, I'm going to go see Suosuo. See you later!"
"roll!"
"Get out if you want!"
With a laugh, Yuan Xudong, who had gotten what he wanted, ran out with the pillow in his arms, ran into Zhu Suosuo's room, and spent more than an hour taming her down.
Late at night, Yuan Xudong ran out of Zhu Suosuo's room holding his pillow again, and turned off the crystal chandelier in the living room. He tiptoed towards Luo Xi's room. The door was not locked. Yuan Xudong smiled, gently pushed open the door, and walked in quietly.
"Who, who where?"
Hearing Luo Xi's frightened voice, Yuan Xudong said softly:
"Don't be afraid, it's me. I came to see if you're asleep!"
"Brother Xudong?"
Sitting up from the bed, Luo Qian looked towards Yuan Xudong and said:
"Brother Xudong, it's so late, are you still awake?"
"You didn't sleep either?"
Walking to the bed and sitting down, Yuan Xudong stroked Luo Xi's right hand and comforted her:
"What's wrong? Are you worried about something ?"
"No!"
"Still saying no!"
Yuan Xudong pinched Luo Xi's cheek and said with a smile:
"Tell me, what are you thinking about?"
"I miss you, I miss Sister Nansun, Sister Suosuo, Sister Jia, and tomorrow's work!"
Avoiding Yuan Xudong's intimacy, Luo Qian tried to calm herself down and said:
"Sister Nansun is really nice. I feel so sorry for her. Brother Xudong, I will be your sister from now on, okay?"
"OK!"
Holding Luo Xi's hands, Yuan Xudong stroked and comforted her and said with a smile:
"When you go to Xingyu Company, if someone asks you about the relationship between us, just say that you are my long-lost sister!"
"Brother Xudong, that's not what I meant, I..."
"What do you mean?"
Before Luo Qian could finish, Yuan Xudong interrupted her and said:
"Do you have someone you like? Do you want to leave me and be with him? Or have you found a job and no longer need me?"
"No, I don't like anyone else, nor do I need you or want to leave you!"
Fearing that Yuan Xudong would misunderstand her, Luo Qian quickly grabbed his right hand and explained:
"Brother Xudong, I just don't want to hurt Sister Nansun and Sister Suosuo, please don't misunderstand me, okay?"
"So you're going to hurt me?"
Yuan Xudong hugged Luo Qian's body and pretended to be sad:
"You know how much I like you, but you still want to leave me. Don't you think this is too cruel?"
"Brother Xudong, you lied again!"
Being held in Yuan Xudong's arms, Luo Qian sighed and said:
"You're not sad at all, you're lying to me, right?"
"Yes, but not entirely. I'm not sad not because I lied to you, but because I never thought of letting you leave me. Whether you're my sister or my girlfriend, I will never allow you to leave me. Don't you understand?"
"Brother Xudong, you..."
Without waiting for Luo Xi to finish, Yuan Xudong pressed down her delicate body and bent down himself. After stripping Luo Xi into a white lamb, Yuan Xudong looked at her flawless white jade body and smiled:
"Rosie, you will always be mine, okay?"
…
In Luo Xi's room, the nanny Xiao Hong woke up from a deep sleep. When she heard Luo Xi's faint crying, she couldn't help but mumbled:
"Sister Luo Xi, what's wrong with you?"
The room was quiet for a while, and Luo Xi said in a trembling voice:
"Xiaohong, I'm fine, you can continue to sleep!"
"Oh, then I'm going to sleep. You should go to bed early too. You still have to go to the company to sign a contract tomorrow!"
"Okay, I get it. You go to sleep first. I'll go to sleep later!"
"Okay, good night, Sister Rosie!"
"Good night!"
After waiting for a while, there was a rustling sound in the room again. Xiaohong, who was hiding in the quilt, opened her eyes, lifted the tightly covered quilt to create a gap, and looked at Rosie's bed through the gap.
As if feeling her gaze, Yuan Xudong turned around and took a look. When their eyes met, Xiaohong's face suddenly turned red. She quickly covered herself tightly with the quilt and hid inside like an ostrich, just listening quietly to the noise outside. Until everything calmed down and she heard the sound of Yuan Xudong leaving the room and closing the door, she dared to stick her head out to breathe fresh air, her little face flushed red.
After taking two breaths of fresh air and seeing Luo Qian lying quietly on the bed, Xiao Hong whispered tentatively:
"Sister Luo Xi, are you asleep?"
"Not yet, what are you going to do?"
"I can't sleep, can you talk to me for a while?"
"No, I'm so sleepy, go to sleep quickly, good night!"
"Well, good night!"
…
The next day, Xiaohong got up early in the morning and prepared a hearty breakfast. Yuan Xudong, who looked refreshed, Zhu Suosuo and Luo Qian, who looked ruddy, and Jiang Nansun, who looked a little pale, got up one after another, washed up, and prepared to have breakfast.
Yuan Xudong sat in the main seat, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo sat on his right, and Luo Qian sat on his left. Seeing Xiaohong lowering her head and preparing to go to the kitchen to eat breakfast, Yuan Xudong spoke to persuade her to stay:
"Xiaohong, you've worked hard on these breakfasts. There aren't so many rules at home. You can sit next to Luo Xi and have breakfast with us!"
Seeing Xiaohong's slight hesitation, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Why, do you want me to stand up and ask you to sit down?"
"No, no, thank you, Mr. Yuan!"
After taking a look at Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo, and seeing that the two relatively unfamiliar hostesses had no objections, Xiaohong walked over to Luo Xi and sat down, picking up a steamed bun for her and said with a smile:
"Sister Luo Xi, this is for you to eat. There is no ginger in it!"
"Well, thank you, Xiaohong!"
Looking up at Luo Xi and Xiao Hong, who were deeply in love with each other as master and servant, Zhu Suosuo smiled and said while eating the dumplings without ginger:
"I like to eat ginger, Xiaohong, you can't be partial to Rosie alone!"
"No, Miss Suosuo, I'll make two portions next time, one with ginger and one without ginger!"
"How can I feel good about that?"
Looking at the well-behaved Xiaohong, Zhu Suosuo couldn't help teasing her:
"Will this be too much trouble for you?"
"No, no!"
"Okay, ignore her, she's just joking with you!"
After glaring at Zhu Suosuo, Yuan Xudong looked at Xiaohong and ordered:
"Later, you will accompany Luo Qian to Xingyu Company to sign the contract. Take a photo of the contract and send it to me. I will sign the contract only after I confirm that there is no problem. Remember?"
"Remember this, Mr. Yuan!"
"Okay, let's eat!"
…
After breakfast, Yuan Xudong and others walked out of the house. Zhu Suosuo rushed to work in the sales department of Jingyan Group. Yuan Xudong accompanied Jiang Nansun to a nearby hospital for examination. Xiaohong accompanied Luo Xi to Star Entertainment Company to sign an artist contract. Sun Jianhong drove the family's BMW car to pick them up.
At the bottom of the high-end office building where Xingyu Company is located, Xiaohong led Luo Xi out of the car, and Sun Jianhong followed beside them. The three of them walked into the crowded hall. Looking at the various young girls, Xiaohong said with some envy:
"They all know how to dress well, they are so beautiful!"
After saying that, Xiaohong glanced at Luo Xi who was also dressed up and smiled:
"But none of them are as pretty as you, Sister Rosie, and their clothes aren't as pretty as yours!"
"Xiao Hong, stop talking nonsense. It's not good if others hear it!"
"What does it matter?"
Xiaohong hugged Luo Xi's arm and smiled:
"I'm just telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can ask Brother Sun to see if what I said is true!"
After that, without waiting for Luo Qian to say anything, Xiao Hong looked at Sun Jianhong and said with a smile:
"Brother Sun, do you think what I said is true? Is Sister Luo Xi the most beautiful girl here?"
Following Xiaohong and Luo Qian, Sun Jianhong said concisely:
"Yes, Miss Rosie is the prettiest!"
“It’s boring!”
After taking a look at Sun Jianhong, who looked as serious as a robot, Xiaohong pulled Luo Xi and introduced him:
“There are so many beautiful girls on the big screen!”
…
At the side, Liu Mengtian took a look at Sun Jianhong in a suit, Xiao Hong who was jumping around, and Luo Qian who was quiet and reserved. She nudged Su Cheng beside her with her elbow and whispered:
"Hey, Orange, look at that girl in the white dress. Isn't she pretty?"
"Where is it?"
"there!"
"Let me see!"
Looking in the direction Liu Mengtian pointed, Su Cheng saw Luo Qian in a white dress. She was tall, with a slender waist, long black hair tied simply together, fair and clean skin, and a rosy and shiny face. She looked like a pure and innocent girl next door. Su Cheng couldn't help but envy her.
"She's so pretty. The clothes she's wearing are also very nice. I wonder what brand they are!"
"The latest model from Chanel costs around 50,000. The bag the woman next to her is holding is also a limited edition, starting at 200,000. Sometimes you can't buy it even if you have money!"
With a sigh, Liu Mengtian said with a complicated expression:
"A young lady like this is also participating in the talent show. Is there any chance for ordinary people like us to survive?"
