351 Did it Backfire?
Nan Miaomiao paused, not quite catching her tone.
Sonya was interviewed so many times, why did she have to watch that one?
After giving it some thought, she hurriedly explained, “those are just rumors. Sonya is very career-minded and would never let something like a relationship affect her career.”
“Dating will affect one’s career?” Jiang Cuiqin’s tone was indifferent. “What logic is that?”
Nan Miaomiao paused for a moment. She had almost forgotten that Ms. Jiang had gotten married and had children at the peak of his career at the age of 28. She quickly added, “not many can balance career and family so well like you…”
Jiang Cuiqin’s expression eased a little.
Nan Miaomiao was about to die from embarrassment. Ms. Jiang was truly difficult to talk to. She really could not imagine what kind of person could be her friend!
Nan Miaomiao quickly poured two glasses of wine and handed one glass to Jiang Cuiqin. “I’m so happy to meet you today. Let’s toast first.”
Jiang Cuiqin slowly took off her gloves, but she didn’t take the glass. “I’m sorry, I don’t drink.”
Nan Miaomiao: “???”
Even Ji Xi went to the bar for a drink on New Year’s Eve. In this day and age, who in the entertainment industry did not drink?
Jiang Cuiqin said, “drinking alcohol is bad for the skin. I advise you to drink less.”
“…”
Nan Miaomiao put down her wine glass and almost bit her tongue. “You are right. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I know a few of the signature dishes of this restaurant. Their seafood risotto is very good…”
“It’s late,” Jiang Cuiqin glanced at her watch. “Risotto is too heavy. Order something light.”
Nan Miaomiao’s back was wet. “How about a few of their specialty vegetarian dishes?”
Jiang Cuiqin said, “sure.”
Finally!
Nan Miaomiao quickly placed the order, then turned around and downed a glass of wine to calm herself down.
Would someone like Ms. Jiang have any hobbies?
Nan Miaomiao was a person who liked to be in a clique. However, since she played a controlling empress dowager in The Legend of Wutian, the fans did not think much of it.
The vegetarian dishes were served very quickly. Jiang Cuiqin was quite satisfied with the dishes she ordered. “Thank you, I’ll treat you next time.”
Nan Miaomiao hurriedly said that there was no need. She looked up and was about to speak when she saw her slowly typing a reply on her phone. The smile on her face was blissful and sweet.
“Are you with your son?I saw your son’s picture on the internet two days ago. He’s simply too handsome.”
Jiang Cuiqin gave her a strange look. “Why do you think it’s my son?”
Nan Miaomiao: “…”
Jiang Cuiqin replied, “I’m replying to my husband’s message.”
“Ah, I’m sorry. Usually, women are very happy when they talk about their sons, so I thought…”
Her friends were all like that.
Jiang Cuiqin said bluntly, “Ms. Nan, it seems like we don’t think the same way. Your son might leave you when he grows up, but your husband will accompany you for the rest of your life.”
Nan Miaomiao was speechless.
No one would have the same thought as her.
Nan Miaomiao’s bright eyes darted around. It’s fine even if they had nothing in common as long as she could make her hate Su Ji.
Nan Miaomiao responded with a smile on her face. Then, she pulled out a few photos on her phone. Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Cuiqin happened to pick up her husband’s call.
She just said “hello” and she could tell that Nan Miaomiao wanted to talk to her.
Nan Miaomiao smiled. “We’ll talk after you take the call.”
Jiang Cuiqin said, “it’s fine, my husband is just clingy.”
They would talk on the phone for an hour or two every night. Sometimes, they would not say anything and just go about their own business.
“So he’s a man who depends on his wife,” Nan Miaomiao sneered in her heart. At the same time, she pointed to the photo on her phone and asked, “Ms. Jiang, I’ll be participating in the same show as you. Everyone on the internet basically figured that out from my silhouette.”
Jiang Cuiqin nodded. “I know that too.”
If it wasn’t for that, she would not have come to see Nan Miaomiao even though she knew that she bribed the waiter.
Nan Miaomiao smiled, “do you know who the other three are?”
Jiang Cuiqin shook her head.
Nan Miaomiao’s lips curved up, “I do, shall I tell you?”
Jiang Cuiqin looked quite interested, “sure.”
Nan Miaomiao’s finger swiped on the screen. It was a beautiful picture of Sonya from a movie. “This is my best friend. She will be there too.”
Jiang Cuiqin did not react.
Nan Miaomiao sighed in her heart, then flipped to the next photo. It was a random photo of Ji Xi, but she still looked beautiful.
“You should know Ji Xi too. She debuted around the same time as us and has zero scandals till now.”
Jiang Cuiqin’s eyes remained calm. “It’s not a good thing to have no scandals at 30.”
Nan Miaomiao snickered in her heart. Ms. Jiang’s evaluation of Ji Xi was not that great.
It seemed that Ms. Jiang was more likely to join their group.
“Who’s the last one?” Jiang Cuiqin asked.
Finally!
Nan Miaomiao grandly flipped to the next photo. It was a photo of Su Ji that she saved in her phone ever since she saw a hater posted it on the internet.
It was a photo of Su Ji from behind-the-scenes. The person had taken the shot of the moment she rolled her eyes. Su Ji’s posture and expression in the photo looked cool, but the rolling of her eyes was funny. Su Ji’s haters liked to use this photo when they talked about her.
“I found this photo on the internet. Her name is Su…”
“Pfft!”
Before Nan Miaomiao could finish, Jiang Cuiqin couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Who is this little girl? She looks so funny…”
Even her husband asked what she saw that made her so happy.
Nan Miaomiao was dumbfounded. She did not show this ugly photo of Su Ji to make her happy!
“Her name… is Su Ji…”
Jiang Cuiqin paused for a while and told her husband that she had seen a cute little girl. Then she turned to Nan Miaomiao and said, “Su Ji…she was in a drama a while ago, so I remember her. I thought she was a difficult person, but she’s actually quite cute in daily life.”
Did it just backfire?
Nan Miaomiao hurriedly tried to explain, “no, this is a picture taken by a netizen. She’s not cute at all in her daily life!”
