Chapter 446 - Xu Wentings Worry (1/2)

When they returned to the Xiao Mansion, dinner was ready for them. Yezi felt glad when she saw Xu Wenting. She pulled the girl closer and apologized for not being there for Xu Wenting when the tragedy happened. She did not even know about it until Xiao Bing told her. Yezi then began comforting Xu Wenting. They were close friends and they shared everything.

All the others were interested in Zhang Qiang, especially in his occupation. Although Zhang Qiang was merely an obscure actor, at least he was able to tell them inside stories about the industry. The entertainment industry was always a mystery to outsiders. Zhang Qiang had been in this industry for many years, which gave him a vast knowledge about the industry. The stories he told revealed the unknown toil and smuttiness in this industry, The industry was a combination of brightness and darkness.

When they were chatting with each other, the food was served on the table and they started tucking into the food. Zhang Qiang thought that he might be discriminated, but he was warmly welcomed. He was treated like a family member. He believed that he had made the right decision. He drained 5 or 6 bottles of alcohol and even asked for more. He stood up and slammed his hand on the table. Then he bellowed, “Let me sing a song for you to lift our spirits.”

The audience applauded.

It was a renowned folk song, but Zhang Qiang was too drunk and was slightly off key, which made the others laugh out loud. But Zhang Qiang was too intoxicated to notice.

After he finished singing, he suddenly slammed the table again and cursed, “Damn that woman. When I achieve my fame later, I will tell her right in her face that I, the man who had been jobless because of her, can be successful too. Losers can be winners if they try hard. Besides, I’m never a loser. I’m very talented in acting…”

Grinning, Xiao Bing said, “He’s drunk. Dumbass, help him get to his chamber and let him rest. Auntie Li has prepared the room for him.”

Dumbass nodded. Then he walked over to Zhang Qiang and put the drunkard’s arms around his shoulders. Zhang Qiang tried to wrench free while muttering, “Leave me alone. I’m not drunk… Finally, I will be successful. I’m so excited about it…”

After Zhang Qiang went to his chamber, Xiao Bing sighed and said, “Truly everyone must try hard to achieve success, even in the entertainment industry which seems so bright and fanciful for other people. There are so many talented people like him, who are suppressed for all kinds of reasons. I’m full. You all enjoy your food. I will go and check on Little Huarui.”

Yezi stood up and said. “I’ll go with you. Wenting, I’ll be back in a few minutes.”

After they walked into the room, Yezi said with a faint smile, “Brother Bing, according to what Zhang Qiang said, it seems that you and Bi Tingting are very good friends. He was invited by Bi Tingting this time.”

Xiao Bing was startled, then he pretended to be serious, “Yes. I came to know her during a mission before.”

Yezi smiled, “You only know her?”

Holding Yezi in his arms, Xiao Bing said with a smile, “So what? You know me well. I scarcely talk to other girls. Maybe Bi Tingting thinks I’m a decent man and she wants to help Xu Wenting, so she did her this favor.”

“Really?” Yezi said suspiciously, “But anyway, I should thank you. I have been busy working ever since I left school, so I seldom hang out with my friends anymore. If it weren’t for you, I would never have known that so many things happened in her family. If I was not there for her, I would feel bad, because she was for me when the tragedy happened in my family.”

Xiao Bing walked to the door and held Yezi in his arms. He spoke in a soft voice, “Silly, I’m your man. If I’m helping her, it means that you’re also helping her. They won’t blame you, after all, you have a clan to look after. It’s not an easy job. But you are doing well. That’s something truly remarkable.“

Yezi looked up and stared at Xiao Bing, “Thank you, Brother Bing.”

The door was suddenly opened by Lui Xiaorui, when their lips were almost pressed against each other. Liu Xiaorui stared at them and asked cutely, “Brother and sister-in-law, are you kissing?”

Yezi seemed abashed by the girl’s sudden appearance. She disentangled herself from Xiao Bing’s arms instantly, and walked to the living room. “I’ll talk with Wenting first, ” she said, without turning her head back.

Smiling, Xiao Bing said, “It’s already late and we have rooms here. Why don’t you ask Xu Wenting to stay for the night? You can share your bed with her and have some girl’s time together.”

“Sure!”

After Yezi left, Liu Xiaorui asked, “Is my sister-in-law shy?”
