Chapter 1435 Discussing the Script, Qiao Simei Returns
A week passed in the blink of an eye.

It's Saturday again.

The Su family courtyard in Shamao Lane.

It is rare to have a cool cloudy day in Jinling, which is known as the "furnace".

Xiang Nanfang was lying on a reclining chair under the grape trellis in the yard, slowly savoring the new content in the script - a heroine who could stand on equal footing with all the other male protagonists!

When he thought that the heroine was based on himself, and then read the script and heard the author's description of the heroine as heroic, sweet and charming, a blush appeared on Xiang Nanfang's fair face from time to time.

After a long time.

Xiang Nanfang finally finished watching the first part. At this moment, her eyes were full of admiration and worship for the man's talent:

"Senior, you wrote the heroine like this and gave her many of the hero's roles. Isn't that too much?"

"Is it too much? No?"

Su Mingzhe knew that women were just saying one thing and thinking another on this issue, so he just laughed and said:
"Nanfang, have you forgotten that the teacher once said that women hold up half the sky? Besides, I'm not exaggerating when I write this, because these are all your own deeds..."

The two of them had been together for a week and had already become familiar with each other.

Xiang Nanfang still calls Su Mingzhe "senior".

Su Mingzhe changed his words and called Xiang Nanfang by his name.

Facing the new script at this moment, Xiang Nanfang wanted to say that the stories in the script were indeed all about her.

But the real situation is not as beautiful as described in the script.

At least the starting point is not as glorious as in the script.

She stammered, trying to explain:
"But...but..."

Seeing that the woman was still struggling, Su Mingzhe was too lazy to listen and directly used the method of provoking her:

"Nan Fang, you are the head of the Propaganda Department. You don't even know the 'Spring and Autumn Writing Style', do you?"

"OK then!"

Thinking of his purpose, Xiang Nanfang finally approved of this script.

However, she immediately thought of a new question:

"you say……"

"Brother-in-law—"

A cheerful and charming female voice interrupted Xiang Nanfang.

Su Mingzhe's face was shocked. When he turned around, he saw Qiao Simei dragging a suitcase into the yard.

"who is she?"

"She is Wen Qingxue's sister?"

The two women saw the object and raised their voices of doubt at the same time.

"Um, let me introduce you. This is Minister Xiang Nanfang, the district leader of Jinling. She came to my house to discuss the script. By the way, she is also the person in charge of the TV series "Long River" project..."

Su Mingzhe decided to comfort Qiao Simei first and asked her not to talk nonsense and ruin his good deeds.

When Qiao Simei heard that Xiang Nanfang was actually the district leader, she was shocked and immediately turned from a cheerful little bird into a motionless, dull ostrich.

Seeing that Qiao Simei had quieted down, Su Mingzhe introduced Xiang Nanfang:
"This is my sister-in-law. She lives nearby..."

"I know him. He's a famous star from Jinling!"

Xiang Nanfang stood up from the reclining chair without waiting for the man to introduce himself, and smiled at the frightened Qiao Simei:

"Hello, Miss Qiao, I'm Xiang Nanfang!"

"Oh, Minister Xiang, hello!"

Seeing Xiang Nanfang's sweet and harmless appearance, Qiao Simei looked at him and asked curiously:

"Minister Xiang, you are so beautiful, why do you want to be an official?"

“Isn’t it good to be an official?”

Xiang Nanfang felt very strange about Qiao Simei's question.

You know, the Chinese people have always been 'official-oriented'. "Being an official is good, but you are a woman..."

Qiao Simei was used to speaking nonsense, so he directly told the rumors he had heard before and asked:

"As a woman in the government, especially someone as beautiful as you, aren't you afraid that the men below you won't obey you, or that the men above you will want to bully you?"

"..."

For a moment, Xiang Nanfang didn't know how to answer this question.

She can't say that she has a good father, right?

"Simei, you just came back, go home first."

Su Mingzhe saw that Qiao Simei had made the situation awkward before she even said a few words.

After the man sent Qiao Simei away, Xiang Nanfang was no longer in the mood to continue discussing the script with the man.

The two of them discussed a few more issues in a dry tone, and then Xiang Nanfang picked up the script of the second part, said goodbye and left.

By the afternoon.

Qiao Simei ran over again, and seeing that Xiang Nanfang had already left, she started to act coquettishly towards the man:
"Brother-in-law, you know each other so well with Minister Xiang, the director of Big River, so why don't you let me be the female lead?"

"You think the heroine is just a little flower or grass by the roadside, you can just take whatever you want!"

Seeing that Qiao Simei was still trying to pester him, Su Mingzhe quickly spoke:
"I only have a minor role here, which is considered the heroine's little follower. If you want to play it, this is it!"

In order to add "Xiang Nanfang" this time, Su Mingzhe also added the male protagonist's sister, who is "Xiang Nanfang's classmate" in the play.

"Just a little follower!"

Seeing the man's tough attitude, Qiao Simei could only comfort herself that the heroine's follower was at least the third female lead, or even the second female lead. In such a TV series with a strong male lead, she should be satisfied.

After getting what he wanted, Qiao Simei jumped up and down and prepared to go home.

Su Mingzhe quickly picked up the girl's light body, lowered his head and sniffed the fragrance on the girl's body, then said unhappily:
"Now that you're here, you're planning on leaving like this?"

"I'm going back to get my luggage!"

Seeing the man looking at her sharply, Qiao Simei remembered that he had been in Jinling for only a week and must have a lot of inventory. She suddenly became afraid:
"Brother-in-law, please...be gentle, my relatives are coming soon..."

……

The next morning, Sunday.

Su Mingzhe remembered that Xiang Nanfang would come over to discuss the script, so he patted his sister-in-law on the back:
"Hurry up and get up. The sun is shining on your butt."

"Just let it dry, brother-in-law, I'll sleep a little longer."

Qiao Simei turned over and prepared to continue sleeping in.

The man had exceeded her limit last night, and now when she woke up, she felt like her bones were about to fall apart.

Su Mingzhe saw that the girl was indeed tired. After thinking for a while, he covered her exposed body with a silk quilt and gave her instructions:
"In a little while, Minister Xiang Nanfang, the director of 'Big River', will come over to continue discussing the script. You better stay inside!"

"What? Minister Xiang is coming?"

Qiao Simei, who was originally preparing to take a nap, immediately became alert.

Regardless of the pain in her body, she hurriedly picked up her skirt and stockings from the ground and put them on. Before leaving, Qiao Simei turned back and hurriedly kissed the man, and told him:

"Brother-in-law, don't forget my role!"

"Don't worry, I won't forget!"

After the girl left, Su Mingzhe waved his hand to dispel the lingering smell in the room.

Another half hour passed.

Xiang Nanfang then took the script for the second part and walked into the yard.

Seeing Su Mingzhe making tea, Xiang Nanfang did not mind the man's dirty cup and drank it all in one gulp. Then he said in a muffled voice:
"Senior, your alley is too narrow, and the car can't get in. It takes several minutes to walk. It's so hot, it's suffocating!"

"I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily today!"

Su Mingzhe looked at Xiang Nanfang, who was wearing a white dress and light makeup. She was pure and sweet, yet playful, cute and lively. A hint of doting appeared in his eyes:
"Since you feel too hot, then come inside and we can talk under the air conditioner!"
