Huayu Chunqiu, starting from being adopted by a fairy mother
Chapter 467 Thorn Bell
Chapter 467 Thorn Bell
Goddaughter or godson, that's impossible in this lifetime.
If he dares to acknowledge a goddaughter, Xixi will definitely fly into a rage.
If any other woman dared to acknowledge him as her godson, Liu Jing would definitely fly into a rage.
With his and Zhang Min's experience as a precedent, Qianqian was on guard, and Liu Jing himself was also on guard.
At a social party, you can't just keep talking to Alyssa Chia, especially since many guests are there because of her.
There are more than 30 artists, as well as media reporters, film and television professionals, and some managers from Golden Harvest and Chung Tin.
Liu Jing greeted everyone, and stopped when he passed Zhou Xun.
He sat alone in the corner, a bottle of red wine on the table, drinking one glass after another, already showing signs of intoxication.
Liu Jing slapped his forehead, almost forgetting that this person had just broken up with their boyfriend today.
Chen Kun was chatting with Patty Hou and Ruby Lin, so he didn't care about his best friend at the moment.
Liu Jing glanced around and realized Jay Chou was nowhere to be seen either. He was quite disappointed that he'd missed the gossip about Jay Chou and Patty Hou.
"Wood, I want to get back together with him, do you have any ideas?"
Liu Jinggang had just sat down halfway when he stood up again, and he began to understand why Chen Kun and Tang Wei hadn't come over to persuade him.
“A month ago, he spent over three million yuan to buy me a model of a sandalwood palace. During our relationship, he often showed concern for me, comforted me, and helped me. When I had a cold and cough, he would come to see me no matter where he was. He even knew about my menstrual cycle, rubbed my stomach for me, and made me brown sugar water…”
Liu Jing rolled his eyes. Isn't that how you pick up girls? Of course, you have to remember your period. You won't need it these few days.
Xiao Dao just mentioned that her period was coming, and Liu Jing's suggestion of brown sugar water instantly boosted his favorability to another level.
This is just talk; if we actually brought the brown sugar water over, who knows what kind of sharp tongue Xiao Dao would have.
"...He just spent over three million yuan to invite 100,000 people to a movie. He must have some unavoidable difficulties to be so devoted to me. I know his father doesn't think much of me, and his stepmother, Wang Yan, is the same age as me; we were both born in 1974, the Year of the Tiger..."
There are so many people born in the Year of the Tiger today: Wang Yan, Zhou Xun, Lin Zhiling, Jia Jingwen...
They're all incredibly fierce!
Zhou Xun was crying with snot and tears streaming down his face, leaving Liu Jing bewildered. Many people noticed this and started pointing and whispering.
Liu Jingchao raised his glass to Tang Wei, signaling for the other party to come over and help him out.
Tang Wei thought Liu Jing was greeting her, so she raised her glass, drank the red wine in it, and then talked with Ang Lee.
Liu Jing then looked at Zeng Li, who held up two fingers, not in a V-sign, but to indicate that the debt had been reduced twice.
"Wood, you have many girlfriends, so you're experienced in this area. If you were Wang Shuo, how could I win you back?" Zhou Xun asked, her eyes brimming with tears.
"You'll never win me back." Liu Jing's face darkened. "Which eye of yours saw how many girlfriends I have? I only have one girlfriend. The others are my brothers, best friends, junior sister, assistant, buddies, confidants, fellow enthusiasts, neighbors, and business partners."
Wang Shuo, you bastard, if you're going to pay compensation, just pay it, why all this trouble? I wish you'll never find a partner and will be lonely for the rest of your life.
“I’m talking about Wang Shuo. You’re good, but you have many other options.” Zhou Xun wiped away his tears.
"I only have one choice." Liu Jing grunted. Young Master Wang has plenty of choices, and his romantic history is no simpler than yours.
He couldn't stand it anymore and regretted passing by. This guy, already thirty-five years old, is still so love-struck; it's unbelievable.
"In the end, you can only choose one; the others are all shady. It doesn't matter now, but once they become powerful, they won't be satisfied with this situation. I've seen quite a few, like our boss. He has more mistresses than you, and his wife turns a blind eye. One or two of them are already resentful and will cause trouble sooner or later. Actually, you could immigrate abroad; some countries support polygamy..."
“Tell Wang Shuo this, he should understand. You continue drinking…”
The dinner ended early, around 9 p.m. It was just a social party; everyone was very well-mannered, and no one was drunk or staggering.
Whether a second round would start was not Liu Jing's concern. Taiwan's nightlife is vibrant; at least Chen Kun didn't follow them back to the hotel.
If it were Tang Wei, Liu Jing would definitely give her a few words of advice, telling her to be careful, or he might simply not let her go.
He had a feeling that Wu Dun's visit this time wouldn't be so simple. After all, the other party was a seasoned veteran; he couldn't possibly think that coming to show his support was enough to settle the matter.
Tang Wei and Zeng Li supported Zhou Xun on either side; the three-time Golden Horse Award-winning actress had drunk too much, the only one in the entire room to do so.
"Tang Wei, you broke up with Tian Yu, why don't you try to win him back?" Zhou Xun slurred, seemingly not completely drunk yet.
Liu Jing pricked up his ears, waiting for Tang Wei's answer; he was quite curious about this couple.
"You've had too much to drink." Tang Wei glanced at Liu Jing, her lips twitching, but she was no longer distracted.
"I'm not drunk." Zhou Xun tried to shake off the pressure, but she wouldn't behave even when being held. If there weren't people around watching, Liu Jing would have knocked her unconscious and carried her away.
"Ah Li, have you broken up with your ex-boyfriend?" Zhou Xun approached Zeng Li again.
"We broke up three times," Zeng Li replied casually. How could he call her an ex-boyfriend if they hadn't broken up? Seriously.
"So many? Is there anything you want to say to them?"
Zeng Li took a deep breath. "Is this a lot? Especially compared to you."
She glanced at Liu Jing as well, "Let them die."
“Yes! Let them die…” Zhou Xun shouted.
Liu Jing covered her face, quickened her pace, and decided to wait for them at the hotel.
By the time Zhou Xun was settled in, it was already past ten o'clock.
Tang Wei is spending time with Zhou Xun tonight; someone who's had too much to drink needs to be taken care of.
Liu Jing gave some instructions on safety matters and then left with Zeng Li.
"This is strange. That guy doesn't seem like the type to be devoted in relationships. Why not just stick to this 'deep affection and never break up' tactic?" Zeng Li was puzzled. She knew more about the truth and felt there was something fishy going on.
"The mastermind behind exposing Xiaoxue is Wang Shuo." Liu Jing didn't hide it; Zeng Li was one of his own.
"Oh, that makes sense now." Zeng Li suddenly realized that Liu Jing had explained the key point clearly, and she instantly connected everything.
Then he wondered, "100,000 movie tickets, that's only a few million yuan. You can't be that generous, can you?"
"You owe me so many times, and I've never forced you to pay it all back at once, haven't I? Isn't that generous enough?"
"Hehe, I can pay it all off in one go, but can you? I'm free of debt, while you're free of debt."
"Goodnight." Liu Jing waved his hand. There was indeed a big difference between women and girls; women spoke much more freely.
"Tch!" Zeng Li scoffed. He couldn't win the argument, otherwise he would have pressed his advantage.
“You saw Wu Dun come today, and the old man is no pushover. Lock the door tonight, and don’t open it for anyone except me,” Liu Jing instructed.
"Don't worry, I won't open the door even if you knock." Zeng Li swiped the door open, went inside, and locked it immediately.
Someone took advantage of the situation last night; we can't give them that chance tonight.
Having been so thoroughly humiliated in front of a younger generation, she didn't dare look at Zhao Liying all day.
"Looks like I'll have to exercise my creditor rights later..."
Liu Jing closed the door, and after taking only two steps, the hairs on his body stood on end. Someone was inside!
He snapped on the light, rolled into the bathroom, and pulled a folding knife from his pocket.
Then, looking out through the glass, I saw someone tied to a bed, struggling violently.
"Holy crap, I knew that old guy had a backup plan. He played it so aggressively. He really made me assassinate Ling for the sake of assassinating Ling." Liu Jing was shocked.
The person who was tied up was the top model, with something stuffed in his mouth, and he was making "woo woo woo" noises at Liu Jing.
Liu Jing walked over and took a look. Wow, the rope bondage is pretty good!
This isn't simple binding; it's elaborate bondage. She's only wearing a three-point suit, emphasizing her most prominent features, and the ropework is highly skilled. Instead of a towel, she has a ball stuffed in her mouth.
Liu Jing glanced at her; her figure was indeed good, but not top-tier. Among his women, she was only average.
Yang Mi, Gao Yuanyuan, Pang Bing, Jing Tian, Zeng Li, Bai Bing, and Tong Liya are all no less talented than Lin Zhiling.
What Liu Jing most wanted to test was magnanimity, but due to obstacles, it was temporarily impossible to achieve.
"What's going on?" Liu Jing took the ball away, allowing her to speak freely, but she didn't answer, only kept crying.
He hates it when women cry, so he shoved the ball back into his mouth and said, "When you're emotionally stable and can talk, nod your head."
Lin Zhiling nodded quickly. Liu Jing retrieved the ball and asked again, "What's going on?"
"Director Liu, today..."
Lin Chih-ling was very depressed today. She thought that attending the premiere of "The Message" with the producer would be a good thing, at least giving her the opportunity to meet the most awesome young director, Liu Jing.
She also longed for the mainland market, but had no opportunity. It was only with great difficulty that she managed to break into the Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television industry.
Few directors value her acting skills; they all assign her roles that are merely decorative.
A vase is a vase, at least it has some redeeming qualities, and besides, everyone likes to look at vases these days.
With this thought in mind, she excitedly arrived at the cinema, hoping to have the opportunity to tell Liu Jing that she could be given a "pretty face" role in the future. "I'm definitely more suitable than Gao Yuanyuan," she thought, "after all, she's an award-winning actress now; it wouldn't be appropriate for her to play a 'pretty face' anymore."
When they arrived at the scene, they found out that the producer and director Liu Jing seemed to be at odds.
Fortunately, the two sides did not fall out on the spot and seemed to have reconciled.
After the premiere, she didn't go back with the producer but stayed for the dinner. She had her reasons; the day hadn't been pleasant, and she wanted to find an opportunity to apologize and, incidentally, create a chance to get to know Liu Jing better.
Everything went smoothly. Liu Jing was very nice and kept glancing between her and Jia Jingwen.
She knew what was going on, thanks to a comment from Andy Lau: the other party was making a comparison.
She was very confident that she would win against Alyssa Chia because Alyssa Chia was unmarried and had no children, and her status as a top model was a plus.
With this title, she moved freely among various wealthy people, thriving and achieving great success.
She had just connected with Director Liu when Producer Wu called, saying he had something important to discuss and asked her to come over as soon as possible.
She didn't want to go, but she had to; a producer is not a simple producer.
As long as she remains entangled in the quagmire of Taiwan, she cannot afford to offend Wu Dun.
The meeting place was a nearby hotel. Producer Wu was very frank, treating her neither as an outsider nor as a human being. He bluntly told her that she had to sleep with Liu Jing, and that she had to sleep with him until he was satisfied.
Lin Zhiling refused. She wasn't some chaste and virtuous woman, and she didn't mind sleeping with Liu Jing. As long as they slept together, she had ways to satisfy him.
But while a good night's sleep can work on elderly people like Wu Dun, it won't work on today's young people.
Taking off one's clothes makes one a beast, while pulling up one's pants makes one a scoundrel; neither approach solves the problem at all.
She was about to offer some advice to resolve the conflict between the two sides.
But to her surprise, Producer Wu didn't give her a chance to speak at all. He had her mouth gagged and tied to the bed.
The above is Lin Zhiling's description. Liu Jing listened attentively, his expressions ranging from anger and sympathy to pity and helplessness.
As for how much he believed, he knew perfectly well. After all, he was a famous director and an actor who had won Best Actor awards; Lin Chih-ling's acting skills were no match for him.
Liu Jing guessed that the supermodel's words were probably 90% true. Whether she was forced or willing, whether she was aware or completely unaware, needed further investigation.
While listening to Lin Zhiling's story, he secretly notified the security personnel to change locations with everyone.
Mr. Min also owns several properties in Taiwan, which are managed by a property management company.
This place is no longer safe; who knows what other heinous things Wu Dun might do?
He then sent messages to Zeng Li, Xiao Dao, and Tang Wei, who were probably almost finished packing by now.
"He...he didn't discuss it with me, he just notified me, and then he just tied me up, and tied me up like this." Lin Zhiling said, tears streaming down her face, looking humiliated.
"Lawless, lawless..." Liu Jing stamped his foot, his voice trembling with anger.
He suddenly realized that he was incompatible with people born in the Year of the Tiger, and this year wasn't even the Year of the Tiger, so why was everyone so tigerish?
Wang Yan visits to offer compensation, Jia Jingwen talks about her godfather, Zhou Xun is heartbroken, and Lin Zhiling is tied to his bed.
Yang Mi is also a Tiger, born in 86. This is also considered inauspicious, as seeing her makes one want to clash with her.
Yang Mi +1
Sigh! Seeing Lin Zhiling reminds me of Yang Mi. My Yang Mi is real, this one is fake. Both had babies, but one got to eat her fill, the other ate plastic. But I have to admit, the fake one is more attractive than the real one.
"I didn't know this room was yours, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have..."
"Stop talking, let's call the police." Liu Jing said seriously, taking out his phone. What's the police number in Taiwan again? It seems to be the same as in mainland China.
Haha, they're treating me like a twenty-year-old kid.
Since I'm idle anyway, I might as well play around with it.
"No...uh..." Lin Zhiling panicked, but she was still tied up and couldn't get up. "You...can you untie me first?"
Liu Jing was very gentlemanly just now; he only helped her get the ball and didn't touch her body at all, not even the rope.
"Oh, sorry, I was so engrossed in listening that I forgot." Liu Jing slapped his forehead, looking apologetic.
Lin Chih-ling felt she had misjudged the situation. Could it be that he wasn't deliberately trying to see her look? Haha, impossible, men are like that!
"They're tied up way too tightly. Wait a minute, I'll take some photos as evidence." Liu Jing took out his phone and snapped a few pictures.
Lin Zhiling was speechless. She had just doubted that this was an innocent young boy, but she was wrong. She was wrong about everything.
After taking the photos, Liu Jing admired them for a couple more moments before untying the ropes. "These beasts should be brought to justice and punished by law. Sister Zhiling, let's call the police. You can be a witness, and I'll have evidence. We can lock him up for a few years to reform him."
Lin Zhiling sighed softly, then seized the opportunity to push her luck, "Liu Jing, it's not like he hasn't been in there before. These things won't affect him. He can just find someone to take the blame. He'll go in for a quick look and come out soon. And then... and then I'll be in big trouble. He has too many ways to ruin me."
"What should we do?" Liu Jing asked anxiously, quickly packing his luggage. "Sister Zhiling, it's not safe here anymore, I have to leave right away."
The prerequisite is that the other person is a beautiful woman.
Liu Jing suddenly found something to enjoy.
