Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1498 "Marriage Strategy" - Chen Yingying

"Of course I miss you." Jiang Chen turned to look at Jian Anjie.

At this moment, Jian Anjie was wearing a white dress, looking ethereal and like a fairy.

"Really?" Jian Anjie tilted her head and looked at Jiang Chen, the smile on her lips revealing her feelings.

"Seriously, I wish I could swallow you whole right now." The last time Jiang Chen saw Jian Anjie was when he came to Hangzhou to attend Alibaba's annual meeting. It had been almost eight months since he last saw Jian Anjie.

This is only eight months in the First World; if you include other worlds, it has been several years.

Although they kept in touch by phone and video during this time, Jiang Chen had been with quite a few women, and Jian Anjie was only of above-average quality in comparison. However, being someone who didn't easily tire of the old and crave the new, he hadn't forgotten Jian Anjie.

“You…” Jian Anjie glared at Jiang Chen.

She felt that Jiang Chen's swallowing it in one gulp had another meaning.

"Don't you miss me?" Jiang Chen approached Jian Anjie and said, "Or rather, don't you want to eat me anymore?"

“Nonsense, I wouldn’t think that,” Jian Anjie said.

"Let's go in." As Jiang Chen spoke, he led Jian Anjie to a private room in the coffee shop.

After the waiter served the coffee, Jiang Chen got up and sat down next to Jian Anjie.

"What are you doing?" Jian Anjie asked.

“You,” Jiang Chen replied.

"..." Jian Anjie.

"Does it smell good?" Jiang Chen leaned against Jian Anjie and took a deep breath.

“Jiang Chen, I think you’ve changed,” Jian Anjie said, looking at Jiang Chen.

"Changed?" Jiang Chen smiled and asked, "Have you become more handsome?"

“Yes.” Jian Anjie did not deny it.

After a few months apart, Jiang Chen has reached a new level of handsomeness.

Logically speaking, people become more like old, dried-up meat as they get older.

Jiang Chen looks younger than him now.

“Then we…” Jiang Chen approached Jian Anjie.

Jian Anjie put her arms around Jiang Chen's neck and offered him lipstick.

Jiang Chen tasted it without any hesitation.

After an unknown amount of time, Jian Anjie finally pushed Jiang Chen away and went to straighten her white dress.

“You are so, so…” Jian Anjie didn’t know what to say.

"It's been a long time since I've had this; it tastes good," Jiang Chen said.

“You have so many girlfriends, you can have them whenever you want. As for mine, I'm afraid you don’t care.” At this point, Jian Anjie suddenly realized that she might have said something she shouldn’t have.

"You're my girlfriend too."

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "I will treat all my girlfriends equally."

“You…” Jian Anjie glared at Jiang Chen.

"Don't worry, even if I had ten thousand girlfriends, I would still be the same," Jiang Chen said.

"..." Jian Anjie.

"Ten thousand? Can you handle that?" Jian Anjie asked.

"We'll find out later, won't we?" Jiang Chen smiled.

Ten thousand?

Naturally it is impossible.

But this represents his heart.

He has a very big heart.

“You…” Jian Anjie glared at Jiang Chen, “I don’t even know who your girlfriends are.”

"Want to know?" Jiang Chen asked.

“Mm.” Jian Anjie nodded.

"Are you ready?" Jiang Chen asked.

"What preparations?" Jian Anjie asked.

“Be my person,” Jiang Chen said.

"..." Jian Anjie.

“It’s not a matter of belief or not,” Jiang Chen explained. “I have many women, and I’ve already told you that before. Although polygamy is a legal practice and marriage can be registered, my family is special. Under normal circumstances, I don’t register marriages, so I don’t intend for anyone in the Jiang family to know who is in my family.”

"I think you have ulterior motives." Jian Anjie didn't quite understand, but she felt that Jiang Chen wanted to have a relationship with her.

"You'll find out later," Jiang Chen said without further explanation.

The two drank coffee and spent some time together before leaving the coffee shop.

"Jiang Chen, why do you feel so cold?" Jian Anjie asked.

“I’m a human-shaped air conditioner, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer,” Jiang Chen replied.

"Tch." Jian Anjie scoffed.

"Shall we take a walk?" Jiang Chen put his arm around Jian Anjie's waist, enveloping her in his true energy.
Jian Anjie did not refuse.

Although the sun was very strong, the cool feeling emanating from Jiang Chen's body made him very satisfied.

"Is your family's problem resolved now?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Yes, it's been resolved. Xi Xichen has left." Jian Anjie nodded. "Now I'm in charge of the Jian Group."

If it weren't for dealing with family matters, she wouldn't have gone months without seeing Jiang Chen.

In the evening, Jiang Chen brought Jian Anjie to Courtyard No. 8 of Greentown Yunqi Rose Garden.

"Has no one lived here for a long time?" Jian Anjie said, looking around the living room.

"Yes, I only come to stay for a while when my wives come to Hangzhou on business trips," Jiang Chen said.

"Who are they?" Jian Anjie asked.

“Nie Xingchen, Gu Jia, Jiang Tianlan, Li Na, An Qinghuan, Nan Ya, He Fanxing, Li Yanshu…” Jiang Chen began to name them one by one.

“So many people in Xingchen Group? Doesn’t that mean that besides Xingchen Group, you also have…” Jian Anjie was dumbfounded.

"Ah."

Jiang Chen nodded.

Including those who haven't undergone Saint Clan certification, Jiang Chen already has over ninety women in the First World.

"Is it too late for me to regret it now?" Jian Anjie asked.

"What do you think?" Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Once you're through this door, you won't have a chance to refuse."

"Then where will I stay?" Jian Anjie asked.

"Today you'll naturally stay in the master bedroom. From now on, if you're alone, you can stay anywhere. If there are other people, you can choose or draw lots." Jiang Chen explained the Jiang family's solution.

Yes, within the Jiang family, Jiang Chen tries his best to avoid palace intrigue.

"..." Jian Anjie.

Jian Anjie suddenly felt as if she had really entered the harem.

Jiang Chen pulled Jian Anjie into the master bedroom.

"I...I'll go take a shower first," Jian Anjie said, sounding flustered.

She had known Jiang Chen for three years, and the two had done everything except for the final step, but at this moment, Jian Anjie was more flustered than ever before.

"How about I help you?" Jiang Chen said.

“No.” Jian Anjie refused decisively, took his bathrobe and went into the bathroom.

Jiang Chen smiled and started working on his phone.

About half an hour later, Jian Anjie came out of the bathroom.

Jiang Chen looked up and his eyes lit up.

"You, go take a shower." Jian Anjie couldn't stand Jiang Chen's gaze.

"Okay." Jiang Chen ran into the bathroom.

In less than three minutes, Jiang Chen ran out.

"So fast? Is it clean?" Jian Anjie asked.

“Of course.” Jiang Chen came to Jian Anjie’s side and stared at her intently.

“Then, let’s watch TV first,” Jian Anjie said.

"What TV are you watching?" Jiang Chen pounced on him. Soon, indescribable sounds rang out.

……

The next day, Jiang Chen prepared to go to Jingpin Gallery.

However, just as Jiang Chen parked his car nearby, he saw a young woman holding an ice cream cone and playing on her phone as she walked into the parking lot.

"is her?"

Jiang Chen recognized him.

Almost simultaneously, a system notification sounded.

"Sign in."

Jiang Chen silently recited in his heart.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully checked in and received ten ancient Tian Shan snow lotuses.]

"Ten ancient Tianshan snow lotuses?"

"I previously signed in with Ning Meng, Yuan Lai, Feng Zhiwei, Song Yudie, Yi Wenyan, Liu Yanping, Lin Shaochun, Jiang Tian, ​​Zhao Ban'er, Shangguan Yan and others and got ten Ten Thousand Year Tianshan Snow Lotuses. I have already used fifty-five of them. In addition, with the ones I got from my family's advancement to the Celestial Clan, I now have less than a thousand Ten Thousand Year Tianshan Snow Lotuses left in the system space. Today I finally got ten more from signing in."

"However, this is only the seventeenth time I've checked in and received the Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Tianshan Snow Lotus."

"Compared to other medicinal herbs that are ten thousand years old, you don't get many of these ten thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotuses from signing in."

"However, the family's medicinal garden can provide a continuous supply of ancient Tianshan snow lotus in the future."

Jiang Chen looked at the female lead who had signed in.

Chen Yingying, a character in "Marriage Strategy".

In the drama, she is Su Li's best friend of many years. After witnessing Zhang Shuheng's success, she becomes jealous and has an improper relationship with him. After cheating on Su Li with Zhang Shuheng, she tries to hide the truth, pretending nothing is wrong in front of Su Li. She even tries to use some means to make Su Li voluntarily leave her marriage so that she can take her place. After Zhang Shuheng's reputation is ruined, Chen Yingying tries to find new support, frequently using her looks to get close to others. She eventually contracts a sexually transmitted disease and, after Zhang Shuheng cheats on her again, breaks down and attempts suicide by cutting her wrists.

"Chen Yingying from 'Marriage Strategy'?"

"I didn't expect her to be in Hangzhou."

In the drama, Chen Yingying has been a relatively unknown actress for many years. Therefore, after seeing Zhang Shuheng's success, she began to have other ideas. She disregarded the fact that Su Li was her best friend and started to show her affection for Zhang Shuheng. The two of them got together behind Su Li's back.

Zhang Shuheng believed his relationship with Chen Yingying was true love, unaware that he was merely a small fish in her pond. Zhang Shuheng was easily discarded; Su Li not only extorted 500 million yuan from him with photos but also forced Chen Yingying to kneel in front of all the media. Wang Gang, witnessing this scene, exclaimed how exhilarating it was. Even though Zhang Shuheng and Chen Yingying were in the eye of the storm, the thrill of their affair was even more exciting. The two passionately kissed in the hotel room. Because Su Li helped Wang Gang resolve the issue of President Wu's alleged "unspoken rules," she became his undercover agent, hiding within Zhang Shuheng's inner circle.

While Zhang Shuheng and Chen Yingying were having another affair, Su Li received a message from Wang Gang and, accompanied by paparazzi, caught them in the act. Pushing open the door, she grabbed Chen Yingying's head and dragged her off the bed. However, upon seeing the mistress's face, she feigned surprise, bursting into tears and accusing her husband of having an affair with her best friend. Meanwhile, a live stream on the paparazzi's phone attracted millions of viewers, who rallied to Su Li's defense of the scumbag husband and the mistress. The mission was accomplished, and the two finally divorced. Zhang Shuheng not only had to leave with nothing, but his infidelity also caused the TV series to be canceled, leading to a lawsuit from investors for millions in debt.

Zhang Shuheng was left penniless and heartbroken. He went to find Chen Yingying, hoping to go abroad with her, only to witness her in a steamy scene with President Wu. Enraged, Zhang Shuheng slapped her across the face. Chen Yingying's face was red and swollen, disgusted by his current impoverished appearance. If it weren't for the resources Zhang Shuheng could provide, she wouldn't have bothered serving him in the first place; any genuine affection she felt was just a joke. He laughed at Zhang Shuheng, calling him a fool for believing such things.

Not long after divorcing Zhang Shuheng, she remarried and married a wealthy man.

After witnessing Zhang Shuheng's current predicament, Chen Yingying immediately changed her target, once again using her looks to get close to President Wu in order to obtain what she wanted. As these incidents continued, she eventually contracted a sexually transmitted disease.

"Chen Yingying's character in the drama works in the entertainment industry."

"I just don't know which company she works for now."

Jiang Chen sized up Chen Yingying.

The actress who played Chen Yingying in her previous life was a newcomer.

She is quite youthful and beautiful.

"Once we return to Shanghai, we'll have Nanya or Yu Hailun investigate."

"Although Chen Yingying may be an average person with mediocre abilities, just like in the drama, she can still succeed as a popular idol."

"With the addition of capital and good looks, one can definitely become a top star."

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

Those who rely on traffic are looking to make quick money.

Now that he has more women and his monthly salary is increasing, it's natural to want to find more ways to make quick money.

"It's not excessive; it's too early to think about these things now."

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and then walked into Jingpin Gallery.

"Jiang Chen?" Jin Lu was working at Jingpin Gallery when she saw Jiang Chen and stood up: "When did you come to Hangzhou?"

"I came to Hangzhou on a business trip, so I came to visit." Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Jin Lu.

Today, Jin Lu is wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, looking youthful and beautiful, not at all like someone who has been married and had children.

Although he had seen it many times, Jiang Chen still felt his eyes light up.

"It's rare to see you here; you haven't come to the company for months," Jin Lu said as she walked over, complaining, "Aren't you afraid I'll ruin the company?"

"I believe in your abilities and my own judgment," Jiang Chen smiled and said. "Besides, even if Jingpin Gallery loses money, it's fine. We just need to open one store."

"You really are..." Jin Lu was speechless, yet touched by Jiang Chen's trust.

"However, judging from your appearance, your business is doing quite well now," Jiang Chen said.

“Of course, although this is my first time opening an art gallery on my own, once I figured it out, everything else was easy…” Jin Lu talked about the development over the past three months, and also introduced Jiang Chen to the painters who had joined the gallery, as well as the increased sales channels.

Jin Lu became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she herself was a child who had been carefully nurtured and had become successful.

Jiang Chen listened silently.

Jiang Chen was also very pleased with the success of Jingpin Gallery.

Even if the Jingpin Gallery doesn't make her much money, the people who can buy paintings from the gallery are not ordinary people; these are her hidden connections.

"Jiang Chen, what do you think of our business?" Jin Lu asked.

“Okay. But…” Jiang Chen didn’t just praise her; he also offered many suggestions for Jin Lu’s Jingpin Gallery.

"Jiang Chen, do you really just run a company in Shanghai?" Jin Lu asked.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Impossible. With your abilities, even if you were to start a company, it wouldn't be an ordinary one, would it?" Jin Lu had met many high-ranking officials and dignitaries recently, but their conversation skills were nowhere near as good as Jiang Chen's.

"So what? Will this affect our relationship?" Jiang Chen wasn't surprised by Jin Lu's doubts, but he hadn't intended to keep it a secret for long.

"It won't affect anything," Jin Lu said.

"That settles it then." Jiang Chen smiled and said, "When you have time to go to Shanghai in the future, I'll take you to see my company."

“Okay.” Jin Lu naturally didn’t refuse.

After browsing around the Jingpin Gallery, Jiang Chen and Jin Lu went to Jin Lu's office.

"Jin Lu, your office is nicely decorated." Jiang Chen looked around, his gaze landing on the roses in the vase. "These are roses? Jin Lu, have you found a boyfriend?"

"Looking for a boyfriend? No, I don't," Jin Lu replied.

"Didn't your boyfriend give this to you?" Jiang Chen asked.

"I bought it myself," Jin Lu quickly replied.

"You bought it yourself? It really wasn't a gift from your boyfriend? Jin Lu, even though you just got divorced, it's okay to find a boyfriend," Jiang Chen said.

"I've just escaped the grave of marriage, do you think I'll step into the grave of marriage so soon?" Jin Lu didn't expect Jiang Chen to say that, and her expression was somewhat puzzled.

“That’s true, especially for you girls. You need to think carefully before getting married,” Jiang Chen said.

"We girls? And you?" Jin Lu asked.

“Me? I’ve already told you before that I have many girlfriends, so as a scumbag, I’m a sophisticated, free-spirited, and hedonistic person,” Jiang Chen said.

"You yourself said you're a scumbag?" Jin Lu looked at Jiang Chen.

"I have many girlfriends, which makes me a scumbag in many people's eyes," Jiang Chen said frankly.

"Don't you think this is a bad thing?" Jin Lu asked.

“It’s not good, but I’m a man. Just like you women want multiple husbands, we men want multiple wives and concubines,” Jiang Chen replied.

"Three husbands and four servants? How is that possible?" Jin Lu was shocked, clearly not expecting Jiang Chen to say such a thing.

“Haha, I don’t agree with having three husbands and four servants, but I do agree with having three wives and four concubines,” Jiang Chen said.

"Jiang Chen, isn't this a double standard?" Jin Lu said.

"Yes, I admit it. So if you want to find a new boyfriend, you can't choose someone like me." Jiang Chen had already told Jin Lu about having many girlfriends last time, so he had no worries now.

"You really do have self-awareness," Jin Lu said.

“You’re my old classmate, and I’m just being honest with you. Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore. Jin Lu, it’s getting late, let me treat you to dinner,” Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Jin Lu did not refuse.

At that moment, Jiang Chen and Jin Lu left Jingpin Gallery and went to a restaurant.

"What would you like to eat?" Jiang Chen asked Jin Lu as he invited her to sit down. He then handed her the menu.

"Then I won't be polite." Jin Lu started ordering.

Soon, the food and drinks were served.

"Come on, let's have a drink," Jiang Chen said after pouring Jin Lu a glass of wine.

"Okay." Jin Lu picked up her wine glass and clinked it with Jiang Chen's.

The two had just taken a sip of their drink when a voice came from the side: "Jin Lu? It's you..."
