A grand feast for the Chinese entertainment industry

Chapter 92 The Heroine
I'd already stepped out the door when I suddenly felt my arm being grabbed again. I turned around, and someone said, "Hey! What's this? Don't you want to live in the future? Chasing me out at a time like this, you've really offended me!"

However, Xu Qing's eyes seemed to be shining, and he answered irrelevantly, "Jianlu, you're a real man!"

Unexpectedly, Lin Jianlu scoffed, "Tch... Forget it! You think you're a real man just because you called that coward a few words? You've never even eaten any good pork!"

Xu Qing chuckled, crossed her arms and chased after Lin Jianlu, twisting her neck and tilting her head to look at her. She pulled hard on Lin Jianlu's arm until it finally stopped, and said, "Your pork is good, can I have some?"

Lin Jianlu turned to look at her and sneered, "Pork? Compared to that kind of pork, I'm at least beef ribs, right? To exaggerate a bit, wouldn't I be considered swan meat?"

I didn't expect the princess of Beijing's elite circle to be so supportive. "Of course! She's a swan!"

Damn it...

This woman looked at you with such adoration, her eyes sparkling, her dimples showing when she smiled, and she was tilting her head to look at you like that...

Lin Jianlu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Come on, let's find a place to continue this, I'll take you to eat beef!"

She readily agreed, "Let's go!"

Driving, just around the corner, there's a beef hot pot restaurant—this isn't decades from now, where Western restaurants are everywhere. Back then, Western restaurants were still considered high-end and rarely seen on the streets. They were usually located in high-rise buildings, especially in consulate areas, where the prices were exorbitant. In contrast, these shops on the streets of the capital sold authentic Chinese cuisine. And they were relatively inexpensive.

If you want to eat beef, the beef hot pot restaurants run by people from the Henan and Shaanxi areas are a good choice.

We went in, asked for a private room, ordered a beef hot pot, a bunch of side dishes, and a bottle of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor).

It was just the beginning of mealtime, and the pot was served quickly.

So they ate and drank at the same time.

The girl didn't actually have a big appetite; she ate slowly, taking bites here and there. Her main job was to keep Lin Jianlu company while drinking, and incidentally, to provide emotional support—emotional support was extremely important. Even though he had vented his anger after the outburst, he was still quite upset that someone dared to look down on him like that! However, after chatting with the beautiful girl for a while, seeing her looking at him with such admiration, her eyes sparkling and fixed on him, his mood gradually improved!

Ultimately, however, she is different from herself.

She's a singer, and she produces and sells her own music, mainly catering to external markets like Hong Kong and Taiwan. Even if she were to be scolded or beaten up, the worst that could happen is a public order offense and a two-week detention. She'd still be recording songs and selling albums after that. The girl, on the other hand, makes a living as an actress. By chasing after him, she was essentially supporting him, and in doing so, she offended the most popular and powerful director in the current domestic film industry!

To say it won't affect one's future is definitely a lie!
It's just a relationship, more or less!

"I don't care! He's not the only director. If I want to act, I'm not going to be without roles!"

"Besides, I'm your date. Do you think I have to stay and keep talking nonsense with them just because they've already stepped on my face? Are you saying I can't live without them? Who can't live without whom?!"

"I saw everything that happened today, and no matter what, it's not your fault! He's just too clueless. I could forgive him for everything else, but from the very beginning, he just sat there like he was something, not getting up. What, was he waiting to be buried? Why was he acting so high and mighty? I brought him along, and this is just disrespecting me!"

"They even pointed and whispered in front of so many people, wasn't that implying that your song was bad? Wasn't that just trying to belittle you? Who can't tell? You're right to criticize me, I love people like you!"

Lin Jianlu listened and ate at the same time, and later listened and laughed.

"What a chivalrous woman! How righteous!"

"That's right! Come on, Master Lin, let's have a drink!"

This woman is really something—that's a two-and-a-half-ounce cup, and it's more than half full of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor)!

Lin Jianlu had drunk with her at the previous drinking party. He estimated that the girl could only drink half a jin to six or seven liang of alcohol. If she drank it down in such a big gulp, half a jin would definitely knock her out!

Lin Jianlu smiled, but instead of picking up his cup, he suddenly put down his chopsticks. The two sat close together at the small round table, and he immediately pulled the girl into his arms, his mouth full of grease, and kissed her red lips.

The girl held the cup high in the air, responding enthusiastically.

After a long while, the girl finally let go, her eyes almost brimming with tears.

"Have a meal!"

But the girl insisted, and before she even put her glass down, she shouted, "Drink!"

Lin Jianlu chuckled, picked up her cup, and clinked it against hers.

The girl slurped it up and actually poured it straight into her mouth—goodness!

Lin Jianlu, of course, wasn't short of food and readily agreed.

She put down her cup and looked again; her face was even redder from the spiciness. She picked up a piece of beef heart for the girl, who immediately leaned forward, blew on it, took it, and smiled at Lin Jianlu while chewing.

Both dashing and charming!

That's fucking killing a lecherous bastard like me!
But this wasn't part of the plan at all!

However... screw the plan!
Su Huilun and Chen Shuhua are not in the plans yet!
Brigitte Lin and Leung Wing-ki are not in the plans yet!
If you sleep together, so be it. It's consensual, full of affection, so what?

Eat and drink.

In the middle of the meal, Han Shanping called. Lin Jianlu took out his phone, glanced at the number, vaguely remembered it was his, and hung up casually. He continued eating and drinking, and after he was full, he paid the bill and took the girl home.

She screamed so loudly that Lin Jianlu, who knew the soundproofing of buildings in that era, had to first cover her mouth, and then switch to covering her mouth while choking her neck—when it was over, her whole body was red and she was panting heavily.

It took more than ten minutes for Lin Jianlu to catch his breath. She had already finished one of the cigarettes she took out of her bag before she finally spoke her first words, "Jianlu, you're a real man!"

Lin Jianlu scoffed, "Don't give me that!"

After saying that, I hesitated for a moment, but still tossed her the cigarettes and lighter.

She took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled slowly. "I felt like I was going to die!"

Lin Jianlu didn't say anything. After she finished three puffs, he went over, snatched the cigarette from her hand, and casually stubbed it out on the bedside table. "Smoke less!"

She didn't answer, remaining silent for a long time before suddenly saying, "Jianlu, I want to marry you!"

"Dream on! Get in line!"

"Pfft..." She chuckled and asked, "How long is the line? How many people are ahead of you?"

"There are plenty! About ten!"

"Pfft..." She laughed again, finally sitting up, brushing the hair stuck to her face, shaking her head, and then lying naked over, not caring that her inner thighs were sticky, directly smearing Lin Jianlu's leg with hers, facing each other naked, their faces less than ten centimeters apart, half sincere and half coquettish, "Tell the truth, how many?"

"There are really only about ten!"

"Okay! I trust you! Let me cut in line!"

"Tch! What are you saying! We've slept in the same bed, how could I be so heartless!"

"Pfft... You're not telling the truth at all!"

"I'm telling the truth!" "Fine! Then tell me who they are. Even if I don't know them, just name a few and I'll believe you! I like you, and you told me to wait, so I'll wait! I don't believe you can leave me hanging forever!"

"You'd better believe me! What if I get tripped up by someone? You'll have wasted your whole life!"

"So what if it's delayed? It's a lifetime, so what? I'll just never get married, and I'll make you feel guilty for the rest of your life! With your personality, aren't you a chauvinist? You like to show off, don't you? You're responsible, aren't you? If I have to stay single for you for the rest of my life, who knows who will feel worse!"

"Hey... challenge me!"

"I'll challenge you! I love you! I love you to death!"

Lin Jianlu stared blankly at her, then suddenly patted her large, white, bare buttocks, which were soft and supple to the touch, and said, "Go get me a cigarette!"

She got up, took out a cigarette, and put it directly into her own mouth. She lit it, took a puff, blew it all over Lin Jianlu's face, and then took it out and put it into Lin Jianlu's mouth.

I haven't smoked in a long time, but I made an exception today. In no time at all, I had my second cigarette.

As Lin Jianlu smoked, she suddenly laughed.

"You are the most awesome woman I have ever met in my life!"

"What makes you so awesome?"

"That's bold! Ruthless! Direct!"

"I thought you were going to say I was sexy! But I swear, this is the first time in my life I've ever been this sexy!"

"You're such a slut! I've had guys piss all over me before, you're nothing compared to them!"

"Pfft... You're ruthless and direct enough!"

Lin Jianlu's hand reached down, and she leaned forward slightly to make it easier for him to move. "Is it big?"

However, Lin Jianlu was quite oblivious to romance and scoffed, "This is nothing big, but it's powerful enough!"

She was silent.

While smoking, he suddenly realized something was wrong, turned to look at her, and she stared straight at him, saying, "Jianlu, I'm begging you! This is the first time in my life I've ever thought about getting married, marry me!"

"I can't marry her! I told you before, I have a girlfriend!"

"It's definitely not your two lovers!"

"That's right, no."

"Tell me her name. If I ever have the chance to run into her again, I'd like to see in person what makes her better than me!"

"She... is just a plain girl. You'll crush her within ten years!"

"You think I'm older than you?"

"What a joke! Brigitte Lin is 22 years older than me, and I don't mind that she's older. Why would I mind that you're older than me? But if you're talking about marriage, that's a different matter! I'm afraid my mom will break my legs!"

She breathed a sigh of relief, hesitated for what felt like less than a second, and then compromised, "Can I be your girlfriend? That should be alright, right?"

Lin Jianlu twisted his body, stubbed out his cigarette on the bedside table, and cupped the face that had killed this lecherous man in his hands. "You like me that much? You can't live without me?"

"like!"

I absolutely love it!

I wish I could die in your arms!

"It has to be you!"

"No matter who comes, it won't work!"

The girl's words were resolute, each sentence piercingly painful.

Lin Jianlu pursed her lips and remained silent.

The girl quickly continued, "The first time I saw you, I was just curious about you. I thought you were really handsome, strong, and talented. But last time I came to your house for dinner, I saw you making noodles and soybean paste for me. Like Lin Jianlu, I fell in love with you in that instant! But it was still just love for you, until just now..."

"I've never seen such a manly person before! He just goes for it without hesitation! Who cares who he is, or even if it's Chen Kaige, he just goes for it! He just goes for it! In my heart, that's what a real man is!"

Lin Jianlu touched her face for a long time and then said, "I'll buy you a house! Ours!"

"You're going to take care of me?"

"I'll take care of you."

"Fine! You said it! No taking it back! Then I'll eat you for the rest of my life!"

Lin Jianlu smiled, "No regrets!"

"From now on, I'll be your girlfriend!"

"You're my girlfriend!"

"It's a deal, don't embarrass me in public! No denying it, no matter who you're in front of!"

"Yes, even in front of my girlfriend, I admit you're my woman! My honey!"

"Not honey! I'm not honey! Girlfriend! I have to be your girlfriend!"

"Okay! Girlfriend!"

"There's one more thing!"

"Say!"

"Let me meet your girlfriend! I want to see what she's really like..."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Jianlu immediately rejected the idea, saying, "No way!"

It's not that they don't respect me, it's just that they don't accept being managed.

However, after a pause, he still gave the girl face and added, "When I let you see me is up to me. If I don't let you see me, don't even mention it!"

The girl hesitated for less than a second, then said, "Okay!"
