Chapter 525: Encountering Xia Qing and Causing Trouble (5K has been reached, hope everyone supports it)
Being interrupted by Qiao Jingjing, Lin Hao couldn't show off anymore. He also had hundreds of millions, and his wealth was increasing exponentially.
Then Lin Hao thought about it and said:
"There is a phrase that many people don't like, 'well-matched'!"
"When two people are together, apart from loving each other, if their values, knowledge, finances, etc. are too different, it is rare for them to stay together until the end."
Qiao Jingjing immediately understood what Lin Hao meant. The other conditions were fine, but Lin Hao would not rely on her financially.
However, Sister Ling, who was standing by, was so happy when she heard what Lin Hao said.
So you are short of money? That's easy to fix! Is there any profession that can make more money than being a celebrity?
So Sister Ling continued to test:
"Have you found a job you like now?"
Lin Hao did not answer, but said half-jokingly:
"Is Sister Ling going to introduce me to a job?"
In fact, he had almost guessed Sister Ling's purpose since she first tried to get close to him.
Sister Ling wanted to sign him. After all, in the original plot, Sister Ling saw how handsome Yu Tuchang was and always wanted to sign him.
And Lin Hao is better than Tu in terms of appearance, it would be strange if Sister Ling was not tempted.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Hao finished speaking, Sister Ling couldn't wait to say:
"Yeah, I wonder if Xiaolin has ever thought about becoming a star like Jingjing?"
"Become a star?" Lin Hao waved his hands and said, "Sister Ling, you are joking. I am not cut out for that!"
"Don't be so quick to refuse!" Seeing that Lin Hao refused without even thinking, Sister Ling advised firmly:
"Don't you want to make money? As long as you sign a contract with our company, Sister Ling guarantees that you will be very popular within a year."
"Have you seen Jingjing's house? You can afford it in three years, at most three years!"
"Forget it! Being a celebrity is not suitable for me!" Lin Hao shook his head.
"Actually!" Seeing the two of them looking at him, Lin Hao's face became serious, and then he said seriously:
"Actually, I plan to take a break for a while and then go back to inherit billions of dollars. I appreciate Sister Ling's kindness!"
However, Lin Hao's serious expression seemed more like a joke to them, a humorous rejection.
"Haha~!" Qiao Jingjing also smiled and joked:
"Then I would like to wish President Lin in advance that he will take power and become a big money sponsor as soon as possible. Please take good care of me in the future!"
"Okay, let's make it a deal!"
However, Sister Ling, who had been persuading Lin Hao for a long time, was still a little unwilling to accept the fact that Lin Hao was unmoved, so she had to change her strategy.
Seeing the lipstick residue on Lin Hao's mouth, Sister Ling came up with an idea and said:
"How about this? You have nothing to do lately anyway. Jingjing is going to Beijing to shoot an endorsement advertisement in a few days. How about you go with her?"
Sister Ling is confident that Lin Hao will agree, but she doesn't believe that after seeing the glamour and money-making speed of the entertainment industry, this poor boy Lin Hao can still refuse.
Well, Sister Ling really treats Lin Hao as a poor boy who has nothing except his good looks.
This time Lin Hao did not refuse. After all, if he went on a business trip with Qiao Jingjing, he might get some unexpected gains.
For example, falling in love over time or something like that, of course, let's put aside whether or not you fall in love for now, and first set a small long-term goal and give her ~ ahem!
"Great! I can also broaden my horizons with Jingjing!"
Seeing that Lin Hao agreed, Sister Ling was delighted and took out a wet tissue and gave it to Lin Hao and said:
"Wipe off your lipstick!"
Lin Hao calmly took the wet tissue and wiped the lipstick from the corner of his mouth without feeling embarrassed at all.
However, when Qiao Jingjing heard this, she felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to dig a basement to hide herself. It was so humiliating!
······
In the evening, after Lin Hao left, Qiao Jingjing asked:
"Sister Ling, you don't really want to sign him, do you?"
"Of course." Sister Ling said as a matter of course, "With such good innate conditions, wouldn't it be a pity not to be a star?"
"But, will it work if he can neither sing nor act?"
"You can learn singing and acting slowly. You didn't know anything when you first started, but now you are a master in all three fields, including film, television and music, and you are outstanding in all of them!"
"How can this be the same?" Qiao Jingjing retorted a little arrogantly:
"I'm Qiao Jingjing. I'm talented in singing and acting, but he's different. Apart from being handsome, he's totally useless."
"Let me tell you this! He is born tone-deaf. Others sing for money, but he sings for his life."
"Not to mention my acting skills. I was too embarrassed to go on stage for art performances even in high school!"
Well, things like tone-deafness and not daring to perform on stage were all made up by Qiao Jingjing herself.
She had only one goal, which was to make Sister Ling give up the idea of signing Lin Hao.
Lin Hao is so handsome. If he really makes his debut, there will be countless vixens throwing themselves at him. She can keep an eye on Lin Hao for a while, but she can't stare at him all the time!
Besides, even if we could keep an eye on Lin Hao, we couldn’t stop other vixens from pouncing on him.
This is not what Qiao Jingjing wants to see.
However, Qiao Jingjing's words did not dispel Sister Ling's determination to sign Lin Hao. Instead, she deliberately said:
"It's okay! In this day and age, acting doesn't require any acting skills. All you need is a good-looking face. If that doesn't work, just use cutouts. Isn't that what all those young actors do?"
"Singing is even easier. You can hold a microphone and lip sync during a concert. If your singing is not good, you can ask a millionaire tuner for help. Even if it's a pig squealing, he can turn it into heavenly music for you!"
Qiao Jingjing was speechless. She was defeated by Sister Ling's train of thought. Seeing that she couldn't convince Sister Ling, she could only think of a way to convince Lin Hao.
On the other side, Lin Hao was not idle either.
After returning home, he said to Zhai Liang:
"Zhai Liang, when you go to the company tomorrow, set up a film and television company..."
When he was at Qiao Jingjing's house before, Qiao Jingjing's words reminded him that since Qiao Jingjing was a star, he should be the financial backer behind Qiao Jingjing.
Lin Hao’s idea is very simple. On the one hand, he can support Qiao Jingjing’s career, and on the other hand, he can control her actions, so that there will be no conflict.
"No problem!" Zhai Liang suddenly asked, "Brother, are you and Mianhua done?"
Seeing Lin Hao nodded slightly, Zhai Liang then said meaningfully:
"Looking at your arrangement just now, could it be that Cotton is someone from the entertainment industry?"
Lin Hao stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhai Liang's neck, jokingly saying:
"As your brother, I think you should just wait and see. As your boss, I don't think you should pry into your boss's private affairs!"
However, Zhai Liang didn't care at all when he heard this, but seemed to have thought of something, and then said seriously:
"By the way, there is something I want to tell you!"
"What's the matter?" Seeing Zhai Liang's serious expression, Lin Hao also put away his joking attitude.
Zhai Liang looked at Lin Hao's expression and then said:
"Xia Qing called me today and asked me about you!"
Lin Hao paused when he heard this, glared at Zhai Liang and said:
"You won't betray me!"
"No, how could I betray you!" Zhai Liang then said:
"I don't know where she got the news that you resigned from the Space Research Institute, and she asked me for your contact information!"
"Then did you give it to me?" Lin Hao asked.
"If it was before, I would definitely have given it to her, but I saw that you and Mianhua were having a hot relationship, so I didn't give your phone number to Xia Qing!"
"Luckily you're smart, otherwise you'd be doomed!" Lin Hao said against his will.
Zhai Liang glanced at Lin Hao with a complicated expression. This bastard has such good luck in love. Why hasn't he met someone who likes him?
Upon hearing this, Lin Hao walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the night view of the Huangpu River, and fell into deep thought!
Zhai Liang also calmed down and said:
"Hey, to be honest, from Xia Qing's tone, I can tell she's determined to achieve her goal. You should be mentally prepared!"
"Ok!"
······
In the next few days, Lin Hao continued to teach Qiao Jingjing how to practice being a hero and saving someone as usual.
After their previous intimate behavior, the two became more unscrupulous whenever Xiao Zhu or Sister Ling was not at Qiao Jingjing's house.
Intimate behavior has become a daily routine, but we have not been able to take the final step. We are just missing an opportunity to take that finishing touch.
That day, Lin Hao dragged his suitcase to the downstairs of Qiao Jingjing's house, and at the door was Qiao Jingjing's nanny car.
"Here!" Jingjing, wearing a mask, waved and shouted to Lin Hao in the car.
After Lin Hao got in the car, he found that Sister Ling, who was always with him, was not there, so he asked casually, "Where is Sister Ling?"
Qiao Jingjing took off her mask and said coquettishly:
"Sister Ling has something urgent to do so she won't go."
Lin Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this and said, "Then let's go on a business trip together?"
Seeing Lin Hao's expression, Qiao Jingjing said with a smile:
"How is that possible? There's Xiao Zhu! She's already waiting for us at the airport!"
"Oh, okay then!" Lin Hao said lacking interest, but when he found that there were only two of them at the back, Lin Hao became interested again.
"Hey, what are you doing~!"
······
The two went to the airport, checked in, and then boarded the plane.
However, the three of them were not sitting together. Qiao Jingjing was in first class, while Lin Hao and Xiao Lai were only in economy class. "Did you book the tickets?" Lin Hao looked at Xiao Zhu speechlessly.
"Yeah!" Xiao Zhu nodded.
"Are you stupid?" Lin Hao complained, "Why don't you book a first-class ticket for us as well?"
"The company has regulations that our assistants can only sit in economy class!" Xiao Zhu said aggrievedly.
Looking at Xiao Zhu who was peeking at him, Lin Hao said with a smile:
"I'm not from your company, so I'm not bound by this rule. You're usually pretty smart, so why are you being so stupid now?"
"Um, it seems so. How about I help Teacher Yang upgrade his cabin?" Xiao Zhu scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Forget it, let's just leave it at that! It's only two hours anyway!" Lin Hao waved his hand and refused. Since the time was so short, he was too lazy to upgrade the cabin.
"Lin Hao!" Suddenly a familiar voice came to Lin Hao's ears.
Lin Hao turned his head and saw a beautiful girl in professional attire, looking at him with surprise.
"Xia Qing!" Lin Hao blurted out.
Looking at the dazzling Xia Qing, Lin Hao thought of what Zhai Liang had said before. He thought that Xia Qing would eventually ask him out alone, but he didn't expect to see her on the plane to Beijing.
"Thump, thump, thump!" Xia Qing, wearing high heels, walked quickly to Lin Hao's side.
However, there was only an empty seat next to Xiao Zhu in this row, so he sat directly next to Xiao Zhu and stretched out his snow-white hand to Lin Hao through Xiao Zhu:
"long time no see!"
"Long time no see!" Lin Hao shook Xia Qing's soft little hand.
At this time, Xiao Zhu, who was sitting in the middle, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and became extremely alert.
Her woman's intuition told her that this woman named Xia Qing must be interested in Teacher Lin.
Well, there is no need for intuition at all, anyone with eyes can see it.
At this time, Xia Qing also saw Xiao Zhu's eyes rolling around, and deliberately asked Lin Hao:
"Is this your girlfriend?"
"No!" Lin Hao shook his head.
"I thought so. Your taste wouldn't change so much after not seeing you for a few years!" Xia Qing said casually.
Xiao Zhu: “(* ̄︿ ̄)” What does this woman mean?
She suspected that Xia Qing was implying that she was not worthy of Lin Hao. Xiao Zhu immediately greeted Xia Qing's entire family in her heart.
However, she was so timid that she could only greet him secretly in her heart.
At this time, Xia Qing said to Xiao Zhu:
"Little sister, how about we change seats?"
"This gentleman and I are classmates. Can we talk about something?"
F*ck! You were just hinting at me, and now you want to switch seats with me?
What are you dreaming about! Xiao Zhu wanted to straighten his chest and tell Xia Qing that he would not change, but Xia Qing's momentum was too strong, and he could not face Xia Qing's unquestionable gaze.
Xiao Zhu immediately became timid: "Well, I'm going to the bathroom!"
They fled in panic, what a coward.
Of course, Xiao Zhu doesn’t think she is a coward, she is just retreating strategically.
The main reason is that the opponent's aura is too strong, and I am afraid that I can't beat him with my weak arms and legs.
So she was going to report the news to Jingjing and let Jingjing deal with this arrogant woman.
Just as Xiao Zhu was leaving, a stewardess came over and said to Xia Qing:
"Miss, your upgrade has been processed!"
"No, I'll just sit here. I suddenly think economy class is pretty good!"
"But~!" The flight attendant hesitated.
"I'll pay the money, can't I just sit here?"
Theoretically, after the upgrade, the passenger's original ticket code has been cancelled and she cannot sit here.
But in reality, if the customer is happy and it does not affect other passengers, the flight attendant will not argue with the customer about this.
At the same time, Xiao Zhu took advantage of the fact that the plane had not yet taken off and hid in the bathroom to start sending messages to Qiao Jingjing.
"Sister Jingjing is not well!"
Fortunately, the plane hadn't taken off yet, so Qiao Jingjing's phone was still on. Seeing Xiao Zhu's message, Qiao Jingjing replied immediately:
"what happened?"
"Let me tell you, we met a woman. It seems that this woman is a classmate of Teacher Lin."
"Of course this is not the point. The point is the way this woman looked at Teacher Lin. It was like a hungry wolf seeing its prey. Her eyes turned green!"
"Sister Jingjing, you have to be careful!"
In the first class cabin, Qiao Jingjing, who was originally lying lazily on her seat and preparing to put on an eye mask to catch up on some sleep, suddenly sat up straight:
"Tsk, what does it have to do with me if a woman tries to get close to Jinping? He is not related to me!"
Her tone was full of indifference, but her actions could not lie. At the same time, she was wondering in her heart, who is this woman?
"Wait, Lin Hao's classmate?" The first name that came to Qiao Jingjing's mind at this moment was Xia Qing.
No, no, how could such a coincidence happen in the world?
"Hmph, you're so stubborn!" Xiao Zhu curled her lips. As Qiao Jingjing's assistant, she knew Qiao Jingjing's character better than anyone else.
If Qiao Jingjing really had no interest in Lin Hao, she would not have let Lin Hao go to her house.
You know, so far, Lin Hao is the first boy to enter Qiao Jingjing's house.
Xiao Zhu didn't reply, but stared at his phone and began to count down: "3, 2, 1~"
Before he finished speaking, Qiao Jingjing sent another message, "What's the name of the woman you're talking about?"
"It seems her name is Xia Qing."
"It's Xia Qing!" Qiao Jingjing was speechless immediately, thinking of her own bad mouth.
When Qiao Jingjing heard Xia Qing's name, her pretty face began to darken, and the knuckles of the hand holding the phone turned white from holding it too tightly.
If it was any other woman, Qiao Jingjing might not care too much, but Xia Qing, this woman is damn poisonous, right?
It's been so many years, why is it still haunting Lin Hao?
"Stewardess!" Lin Hao shouted to the stewardess.
"Miss Qiao, is there anything I can help you with?" the flight attendant said with a smile on her face.
"Please upgrade my cabin!"
In the economy class, as soon as Xiao Zhu left, Xia Qing immediately sat next to Lin Hao:
"I heard you resigned?"
"Ok!"
"So are you going to Beijing this time to find a job?" Xia Qing's eyes lit up, and then she said happily:
"How about coming to our company? I came to Shanghai this time and wanted to meet you, but I have to go back to the company for something urgent!"
"I was planning to come back in a few days, but I didn't expect to meet you on the plane. Do you think this is fate?"
While speaking, Xia Qing's hands were not idle. She naturally hugged Lin Hao's arm, making Lin Hao feel a wave of Xia Qing's sincerity.
Wow, it's full of sincerity!
According to the plot corrected by the system, Xia Qing originally liked Yu Tu, but after Qiao Jingjing started dating Lin Hao, Xia Qing gave up pursuing Yu Tu and turned to madly pursuing Lin Hao.
Later, he became Lin Hao's bootlicker, the kind that licked him from high school until graduation from college.
You have to know that Xia Qing is quite beautiful. Even compared to Qiao Jingjing, she is only less famous.
If we only talk about appearance, Xia Qing and Qiao Jingjing are at the same level and are equally matched.
She is definitely a goddess-level school beauty, and many of her college classmates are jealous of Lin Hao.
But Lin Hao knew that there was no such thing as love at first sight, it was all just lust at first sight.
To explain it in more literary terms, it means being attracted by the other person's talent, appearance, or conversation, which triggers the urge to get to know the other person and pursue him or her.
During this process, you will be intoxicated and focused, and you strongly hope that the other person can become one with you.
This sounds very high-sounding, but it's actually all nonsense. What they are saying is just wanting to sleep with the other person.
Compared to love at first sight, Lin Hao believes more in love that grows over time. It is easy to fall in love, you just need to spend time with it!
Today is the 5th day of the -word update. As the number of characters increases, the plot becomes more complicated. I hope everyone can give me some motivation and support. Thank you!
