Chapter 182 - 182 183 Mockery (6)_1
?Chapter 182: Chapter 183: Mockery (6)_1 Chapter 182: Chapter 183: Mockery (6)_1 Jing Haohao knew that Qiao Wennuan liked Shen Liangnian, a revelation that occurred two years prior.
Back then, due to Fang Lu, she had just managed to claw her way out of a crippling seven-month-long ban.
Qiao Wennuan was the second female lead in the drama, while she occupied the role of the third.
It happened to be Jing Haohao’s birthday, and Shen Liangnian had rushed to the drama crew, braving dust and grime, to celebrate it with her. The filming location was in a rather desolate area and no restaurants were available for miles on end.
Shen Liangnian bought plenty of ingredients from the nearest city and brought them to the set. Anyone on the crew who could cook rolled up their sleeves and contributed a dish or two.
That night, everyone reveled, ate, and drank at a large, outdoor dining table.
At that time, Shen Liangnian’s company had just been established impressively. He was seen as a CEO by the crew. With his strikingly handsome looks, he naturally attracted many female actresses and assistants who found excuses to chitchat with him or indirectly ask him questions through Jing Haohao.
Only Qiao Wennuan, seated quietly across him, kept her silence.
Shen Liangnian was in a great mood that day, having landed a big deal prior to his arrival. He had unreservedly toasted everyone. As the night came to a close, everyone urged Shen Liangnian to kiss Jing Haohao.
By then, Shen Liangnian was quite inebriated but stil conscious. He got up waveringly, held Jing Haohao and kissed her.
Jing Haohao’s face turned crimson, and she not even a minute later, tried to push Shen Liangnian away. Instead, he wrapped her in his arms and said, “Happy Birthday, Haohao.”
With the help of a male actor, Jing Haohao helped Shen Liangnian to the tent set up as his temporary accommodation.
After laying down for a while, Shen Liangnian vomited.
Jing Haohao hurriedly cleaned up everything and then, holding Shen Liangnian’s soiled clothes, went to the nearby river to wash them.
Halfway through the laundry, Jing Haohao realized she had taken fewer clothes hangers. She rinsed two pieces, hung them to dry, and then left the rest soaking in the basin before going back to her tent.
But as soon as she lifted her tent’s curtain, she found Qiao Wennuan sitting next to Shen Liangnian, carefully nursing him with ginger soup.
As the tent curtain made no sound, and Qiao Wennuan’s attention was so focused on Shen Liangnian, she didn’t notice Jing Haohao’s arrival.
Jing Haohao observed this for a long time, as a woman, she could clearly feel the love Qiao Wennuan had for Shen Liangnian.
When Qiao Wennuan had given Shen Liangnian the last spoonful of ginger soup and spotted Jing Haohao, she jumped up in surprise, clutching the bowl of soup, and her face turned bright red as she stood there awkwardly.
Qiao Wennuan had just entered the entertainment industry at that time, and was not as famous as she currently was. Whenever she encountered Jing Haohao, she would politely and respectfully call her “senior sister.”
Jing Haohao didn’t engage Qiao Wennuan and merely picked up the clothes hangers and walked out of the tent.
Qiao Wennuan quickly followed her, standing closely behind her and only speaking after seeing Jing Haohao finish hanging out Shen Liangnian’s clothes. She stammered, “Senior sister, I’m sorry.”
Jing Haohao was not one to not lose her temper, but she could not limit Qiao Wennuan’s or any other woman’s affection towards Shen Liangnian. Besides, even without Qiao Wennuan, there would likely be other women.
Hence, Jing Haohao paused for a long while before opening up to say, “I know you like Shen Liangnian. However, he is going to marry me. I don’t want you to be a cause for disturbance. Also, there are many men in this world, and you will surely find the one more suited for you.”
