Huayu 2021: Isn’t he in the technology field?

Chapter 466 The Relationship is Confirmed? I'm Not Accepting It!
7:00 AM.

On the mountaintop in the early morning, the air was filled with a refreshing and invigorating crispness.

The tent flap had been rolled up, and Jiang Qing and Zhang Jingyi sat side by side on the edge of the tent, wrapped in thick sleeping bags, gazing at the gradually spreading rosy dawn on the distant horizon.

Orange-red, gold powder, and light purple intertwine, outlining the clouds like a burning brocade, foreshadowing the imminent burst of the sun.

Zhang Jingyi leaned on Jiang Qing's shoulder, her head nestled against him, her face showing a hint of weariness, but mostly contentment.

She stretched out her finger and pointed to the brightest morning star on the horizon, her voice sweet and innocent.

"Look, it's still here."

"Ah."

Jiang Qing responded, wrapped his arm around her shoulder, hugged her tighter, and gently rubbed his chin against the top of her head.

Zhang Jingyi leaned back against his chest, feeling relaxed, and closed her eyes contentedly.

A tacit understanding that needed no words flowed between them.

However, while the two were enjoying their time alone on the mountaintop, the outside world had already been in an uproar over them all night, and the commotion was only getting worse.

The trigger for this incident was, of course, Jiang Qing's surprise appearance at the "Changsha Nightlife" roadshow yesterday afternoon.

Numerous photos and videos taken by audience members at the event were shared on major social media platforms almost immediately after the event began.

The hashtag #JiangQingSurpassesZhangJingyi'sNewFilmPromotion# shot to the top of Weibo's trending topics list at lightning speed, followed by a bright red "Explosive" label.

Major entertainment accounts and marketing accounts, including the official Weibo account of the movie, have all joined in, releasing live footage from various angles.

In the video, Jiang Qing, wearing a baseball cap, sat discreetly in the last row. After being called by Zhang Jingyi, he stood up, and the two interacted and joked familiarly across the entire theater. The whole process was clearly recorded.

When he commented that "her vibrant energy is even more attractive," the cheers from the audience could almost be felt through the screen.

Zhang Jingyi blushed at his praise and said she would treat him to a meal, but Jiang Qing teased her, bringing up old grievances about how Jiang Qing had often eaten braised pork trotters and rice in wooden buckets that she had treated him to on set... and so on.

The seemingly simple dialogue revealed many small details, full of sweet moments, making the audience cheer and many netizens in front of the screen scream.

Every detail is magnified and repeatedly analyzed.

Fans of the "Ming Yun Xun Huan" couple went into an unprecedented frenzy.

"Ahhh! My favorite couple is real! Li Xun and Zhu Yun have gone from the drama to real life!"

"Jiang Shen's vividness is even more attractive! What's the difference between that and a public confession?! Huh? Tell me!"

"Who would understand! This kind of scene where I secretly come to watch you work, only to be caught red-handed is just too sweet!"

"The chemistry between the two of them is amazing! It's like they're surrounded by a magical barrier, and no one can get in!"

"Kissingly happy! Sissingly happy! Please, just get married right now!"

"I've already moved the Civil Affairs Bureau here for you! Please get married right here and now!"

“Destiny's Cycle yyds…”

Not only CP fans, but also many casual viewers were touched by this unexpected sweet moment.

"Although I know it might be because of Zhang Jingyi's new movie promotion period, and Jiang Qing, as her former partner and friend, is specially cooperating with her to promote it, the interaction between these two is too natural, isn't it? It doesn't feel like acting; there must be something going on!"

"Hey! Upstairs, that's Jiang Qing! Does he need to cooperate with this kind of publicity? I think they're really close! Or maybe there's something going on between them!"

"I have to say, Zhang Jingyi's girlish charm in front of Jiang Qing is so adorable! It inexplicably reminds me of her and Peng Peng's dog, and just looking at it makes me want to laugh, hahaha!"

"Upstairs +1, Jiang Qing's gaze towards her was also full of doting, and his smile never stopped."

"There aren't many people in the entire Chinese entertainment industry who can communicate with Jiang Qing like this, right? Zhang Jingyi is definitely different from others to Jiang Qing, and this is the first time he has publicly supported a work, even though he was dragged out by the person in question."

"Hiss! Now that you mention it, it's true..."

On Weibo's trending topics list, related hashtags such as #JiangQingZhangJingyi#, #MingYunXunHuan#, #JiangQingSaysZhangJingyiIsVibrant#, and #ZhangJingyiWantsToInviteJiangQingToDinner# almost dominated the top ten, all marked with "hot" or "explosive" labels, demonstrating their formidable influence.

On short video platforms such as Douyin and Bilibili, the situation is even more intense.

Video editors quickly sprang into action, editing together video clips of the roadshow interactions with classic scenes from "Ignite Me, Warm You" featuring Li Xun and Zhu Yun, and adding various background music tracks that perfectly matched the mood and atmosphere.

Some videos highlight "reconciliation after a breakup," some emphasize "meeting at the top," and others emphasize "a sense of destiny" and "uniqueness."

With carefully edited background music, these videos became incredibly sweet, resulting in a surge in views, likes, and comments, easily climbing to the top of trending lists.

"This editing is amazing! It perfectly captured the sense of destiny that I felt in my own life!"

"The sweetness extended from the drama to real life; this is the best kind of after-sales service!"

"Jiang Qing and Li Xun's figures overlapped, Zhang Jingyi must be Zhu Yun herself!"

"Please, let's do a second one!!! Another modern idol drama! I'm begging you!"

"I'm asking the same thing..."

Despite the online frenzy surrounding their on-screen romance, some more rational voices argue that given their previous collaborations, a good relationship is normal, and Jiang Qing's support for Zhang Jingyi's new film as a friend is perfectly reasonable and shouldn't be over-interpreted.

This viewpoint also gained some traction yesterday evening, causing the discussion to seem to gradually subside late at night.

However, a sudden new revelation was like pouring hot oil on a dying fire, causing the flames of public opinion to soar once again!

Last night around 10 PM, a netizen waiting at Beijing Capital International Airport posted several photos and a short video on Weibo, with the caption: "Bumped into the crew of 'Changsha Nightlife' heading to Nanjing. Huh? Where's the female lead, Zhang Jingyi? @ZhangJingyi"

In the photos and videos, director Zhang Ji, lead actor Yin Fang, and several other main cast members can be clearly seen checking in or waiting in the departure area, with more than a dozen staff members around them.

They all looked somewhat tired, but the atmosphere was relaxed with laughter and chatter.

However, after carefully reviewing all the scenes, the female lead, Zhang Jingyi, was indeed nowhere to be seen.

This Weibo post didn't initially attract much attention, but it was quickly reposted by entertainment bloggers with a keen sense of smell, and was rapidly linked to Jiang Qing's surprise appearance at the roadshow that afternoon.

"Key point: After the roadshow, the entire crew flew to Nanjing, the next city for promotion, but the female lead, Zhang Jingyi, did not go with them!"

"So the question is, where did Zhang Jingyi go?"

"Considering Jiang Qing's sudden appearance this afternoon... is this merely a coincidence?"

"I have a bold guess... Could they be... together?!"

This speculation spread like wildfire, immediately igniting a new and even more frenzied discussion.

"My God! So Jiang Shen went specifically to pick them up?!"

"He stopped following the film crew as soon as the promotional tour ended... It's hard not to wonder!"

"No wonder their interactions were so natural and intimate; they're already together in private!"

"Case solved! They're definitely together! Otherwise, there's no other explanation!"

"Today is New Year's Day for the fans of the Mingyun Xunhuan CP! It's a huge New Year's Day!"

"What is this? A publicly funded romance?"

"This is practically solid proof! I'm looking forward to seeing photos of the two of them at the same hotel later; that would be irrefutable!"

"Aaaaaah! I'm not sleeping tonight! I'm waiting for the sequel..."

Netizens are thoroughly enjoying the gossip, with various analytical and speculative posts emerging one after another.

Even many official accounts of technology media and financial news couldn't help but repost the related reports, with most of the headlines carrying a gossipy tone.

"Jiang Qing of Wuwen Technology is suspected of being in a relationship, and he made a surprise appearance at a movie theater to support actress Zhang Jingyi!"

"Jiang Qing, the 'Father of All Things,' appeared at a movie promotion and had a sweet interaction with actress Zhang Jingyi, sparking heated discussions across the internet!" "From the tech world to the entertainment industry: A deep dive into Jiang Qing's crossover journey!"

"How top tech leaders are made..."

The immense attention garnered by the name Jiang Qing was on full display at this moment.

His every move has long transcended the boundaries of the technology or entertainment industry, becoming a true focus of public attention.

……

At the same time, Magic City.

The morning light shone through the gaps in the heavy curtains of the hotel room, illuminating part of the room.

Zhou Ye slowly woke up. Even after a night's sleep, the long hours of continuous work left her with a lingering weariness in her eyes.

She habitually reached for the bedside table, picked up her phone, and unlocked the screen.

Instantly, push notifications from various apps popped up one after another, almost filling the entire screen.

And the most frequently appearing ones all invariably carried those two glaring names: "Jiang Qing" and "Zhang Jingyi".

#Jiang Qing and Zhang Jingyi's suspected relationship confirmed#
#Fateful Cycle Comes True#
#Zhang Jingyi absent from subsequent promotional events for the drama, suspected of spending the night with Jiang Qing#
Zhou Ye's sleepiness vanished instantly, and his heart felt as if it had been gripped tightly by an invisible hand.

She pursed her lips, her fingers slightly cold, and clicked on the entry marked with the word "explosive".

The first thing that catches the eye is a photo of Jiang Qing standing up at the roadshow, looking at Zhang Jingyi on stage from afar.

He had that familiar smile on his face.

Next came a GIF of the two joking and teasing each other. Zhang Jingyi smiled with her eyes crinkling and her cheeks flushed. The natural intimacy could be felt even through the screen.

Then there were photos leaked by netizens at the airport, showing that Zhang Jingyi was the only one missing from the crew.

Finally, there are various compilations of celebration from fans of the "Mingyun Xunhuan" CP, as well as netizens' confident comments such as "They're together" and "Something definitely happened."

Zhou Ye naturally saw the trending topic yesterday afternoon. Although she felt a little uncomfortable at the time, she could still tell herself that it was just normal interaction between co-stars, and it was perfectly reasonable for Jiang Qing to go and support her.

After all, they had had many similar interactions before, although... none of them were as direct or as oblivious to others as this time.

But the news that came out later was like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing her last bit of self-comfort.

Based on her current understanding of Jiang Qing's love life, Zhang Jingyi's sudden disappearance is definitely related to him.

Something must have happened between them.

This realization burrowed into her heart like a venomous snake, bringing a sharp pain.

Did she actually...do she really do it?
Zhou Ye gripped his phone tightly, his chest heaving violently, his breathing rapid.

A mixture of betrayal, abandonment, and intense anger, along with a profound sense of loss, surged within her like a volcanic eruption.

She slammed her phone onto the blanket with a loud thud.

why?
Why Zhang Jingyi of all people?
What gives that girl who defiantly told her it was "destined" her right?
Yang Wei's words kept echoing in her ears.

Are you willing to just hand him over to someone else?

"You're willing to just hand him over to someone else..."

"I can not be reconciled!"

A voice cried out desperately from the depths of her heart.

She can't do it!

She couldn't accept handing Jiang Qing over to someone else, especially to Zhang Jingyi, who had told her it was "destined"!
She recalled her first encounter with Jiang Qing in Peach Blossom Village, the sea of ​​fluorescent lights on the ridge of the field.

I recall the eye-chasing challenge on the grass, and that kiss high in the sky.

Thinking back to those days in Luyang, even though he was busy, he would always find time to cook for her and listen to her ramble on about the trivialities of filming...

Those warm moments that she had deliberately suppressed and tried to forget became incredibly clear and intensely felt now because of her strong sense of crisis.

She thought that leaving would bring her relief, but the reality is that although she physically left, her heart never truly moved on.

She still can't help but pay attention to everything about him. Seeing his scandals with other people hurts her, and seeing his interactions with Zhang Jingyi feels like a thousand needles are pricking her heart.

Zhou Ye suddenly sat up in bed, scratched his somewhat messy long hair, and took several deep breaths to try to calm his racing heart.

She walked to the window and with a whoosh pulled back the heavy curtains, letting in a burst of blinding sunlight that made her squint instinctively.

In the early morning in Shanghai, skyscrapers stand tall and traffic is already flowing on the streets.

The world continues its busy cycle, but her world is thrown into complete chaos by the actions of that man thousands of miles away.

The girl looked at her reflection in the glass window; her face, which used to be full of sweet smiles, now seemed to be covered with a layer of ice.

When she's not smiling, her features do give off a distant, even somewhat fierce, feeling.

Zhou Ye forced a smile, trying to make himself look less like someone who had been eliminated.

She can't go on like this!

Passively waiting, watching helplessly as one person after another approaches him and takes the place that originally belonged to her?

No, she doesn't want that!
She was able to muster the courage to approach him back then, and she can win him back now!

At this moment, the stubbornness in my heart completely overwhelmed my previous hesitation.

She turned and walked back to the bedside, picked up her phone again, ignored the constant stream of notifications about Jiang Qing and Zhang Jingyi, and directly opened the airline's app to check flight information from Shanghai to Beijing for today.

His movements were swift and decisive, and his gaze was firm.

She is going to the capital.

Now, immediately, immediately!

She could no longer stay there, passively receiving these heartbreaking messages.

She's going to take back the place that once belonged to her!
However, before that, she had to meet someone.

Zhou Ye narrowed his eyes, a chilling light flashing in them.

……

Just as Zhou Ye made up his mind and quickly swiped his fingers across the screen to check flights.

Thousands of miles away, the sunrise on the mountaintop reached its most magnificent moment.

A red sun leaped over the horizon, its golden rays spreading across the sky and earth, dyeing the sea of ​​clouds and distant mountains a golden-red hue, and illuminating the faces of the two people embracing inside the tent.

Zhang Jingyi was stunned by the beautiful scenery before her and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"so beautiful!"

Jiang Qing looked down at her profile, which was gilded by the morning sun, and saw the excitement in her eyes. He smiled slightly and hugged her even tighter.

"Well, it's beautiful."

I don't know if it's talking about the sunrise or about people.

At this moment, all the noise seemed to have nothing to do with the beauty before my eyes.

But the ripples of fate, along with the spreading sunlight, have already reached farther places, drawing different people toward unknown intersections.
