Chapter 14
Chapter 13 – I Love Ji Chenli
In the morning, the Ming family had a rare chance to get together for a meal. Ming Lang’s mother, Wen Yuxiu, spread strawberry jam on the bread and said, “Ah Lang, your younger sister has been kneeling in the ancestral hall all night, so she is considered a sinner.” You shouldn’t have punished her like this for making a big mistake, right?”
Ever since Ming Lang’s father, Ming Guangwen stepped down from his seat, he no longer asked about the Ming family, and took his wife, Wen Yuxiu, to travel around the world. After getting married, Ming Guangwen was so angry that he left without even attending her wedding. No, he just came back from Australia yesterday. When he came back, his buttocks were still hot, and Mingyan went home with a straight face, saying no. He entered the ancestral hall without a word, and knelt down straight, without even saying hello.
When Wen Yuxiu gave birth to Mingyan back then, it was a little difficult to give birth. The youngest daughter was born after going through a lot of twists and turns, and she didn’t expect her to inherit the family business. I never told Mingyan.
It stands to reason that knowing that her mother is back, Mingyan’s normal reaction should be to pull Wen Yuxiu’s arm and ask her what gift she brought for herself, whether Australia is fun, and next time she wants to take her with her, but after Mingyan came back, not only did she not arrive She was tired of following her, but instead ran to the ancestral hall and knelt in silence. Wen Yuxiu was shocked and hurried to the ancestral hall to ask what happened to her little daughter. Mingyan lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and said after being annoyed by Wen Yuxiu’s question: ” You go ask sister.”
When Wen Yuxiu heard this, she was busy calling her eldest daughter, but the phone was turned off, and her eldest daughter didn’t come home until six or seven o’clock in the morning.
Wen Yuxiu was afraid that something might happen to Mingyan kneeling all night, so she tried to persuade her, but Mingyan had a stubborn temper, so she tried her best, so she just ignored Wen Yuxiu’s words, and knelt without moving for a whole night until Minglang came back to eat. She was still kneeling at breakfast.
“Ah Lang, Yan’er has been in poor health since she was a child, if she gets sick on her knees…”
Ming Lang was flipping through the morning newspaper that was just delivered this morning, flipping through a page, as if he didn’t hear Wen Yuxiu’s persuasion.
Wen Yuxiu, born of her own flesh and blood, is well aware of the personality of the eldest daughter. She has had her own opinions since she was a child, and she was raised according to the standards of an heir. Seeing that Minglang couldn’t persuade her, Wen Yuxiu turned her head and winked at her husband as if asking for help, and saw that he was also flipping through the newspaper, but Minglang was reading the financial section and Mingguangwen was reading the social section. As expected of the father and daughter, the posture of looking down at the newspaper is exactly the same, and the frequency of flipping the newspaper is exactly the same.
“Cough cough!” Wen Yuxiu coughed dryly twice, intending to call her husband’s attention, but Ming Guangwen didn’t seem to hear it, and remained motionless. Wen Yuxiu was in a hurry, so she had to poke Ming Guangwen.
Ming Guangwen glanced at Wen Yuxiu from behind his reading glasses, turned another page of the newspaper, and hummed: “Now your daughter is the head of the family, she has the final say on the family affairs, I can’t control it.” He is still getting married for Ming Lang Annoyed by the matter, he glared at Qingming again after speaking.
Ming Lang was indifferent to Ming Guangwen’s angry gaze, drank the last sip of milk in the quilt, wiped his mouth and stood up, “I’m full, parents eat slowly.”
“Ah Lang! Your sister is still kneeling!” Wen Yuxiu anxiously wanted to chase away, but was stopped by Ming Guangwen, “They are all adults, they will solve it themselves, and if you explain that Hong is not an unreasonable person, don’t be blind I’m worried.”
“Am I worrying blindly?” Wen Yuxiu was unhappy when he heard his words, “Yan’er has been weak since she was a child, you don’t know it! If something happens to her, I will never end with you father and daughter!”
Ming Guangwen looked puzzled, “What’s none of my business?”
Wen Yuxiu took the half-eaten breakfast in front of Ming Guangwen to the kitchen with a straight face, “It’s not the meat that fell from your body, you don’t know how distressed you are!”
“Xiuxiu! I haven’t finished eating yet!”
“Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat!”
Ming Guangwen: “…”
The old man felt wronged, but the old man didn’t say anything.
Ming Lang stepped into the threshold of the ancestral hall, and saw Ming Yan was still kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet. She had knelt all night, her back had already bent softly, her buttocks were also sitting on her calves, her head was slanting weakly on her shoulders, Ming Lang When I walked up to her, I realized that her eyes were closed, probably because it was uncomfortable to sleep in this position, and she even snored a little.
Ming Lang pushed Ming Yan’s back with her knee, Ming Yan was unprepared, and suddenly tilted her body, but fortunately she had a quick reaction, and supported the floor with both palms, so she didn’t fall to the ground.
“Sister?” Mingyan rubbed her sleepy eyes, then knelt down on the futon honestly, “Why are you here?”
Ming Lang stood beside her, looked down at her, “Do you know what’s wrong?”
“I know I was wrong.” Mingyan knows the current affairs best, and besides, she, the sister-in-law, did not do it properly. Protecting her, and uniting with outsiders to bully her, my sister-in-law is my own family, I will take good care of her in the future, and never let anyone hurt her…”
Ming Yantian is not afraid of anything, but she is afraid of her sister who is only one year older. When she was young, her mother doted on her, and her father was very busy with company affairs, so it was Ming Lang who disciplined her, so she always had some respect for Ming Lang. Knowing that my sister was really angry, she was very sincere in admitting her mistake.
Ming Lang looked at his own sister, and didn’t know how to punish her besides letting her kneel for a night. In the final analysis, it was Ming Lang’s own fault that Ji Chenli was bullied like this.
If it wasn’t for Ming Lang’s contempt for Ji Chenli, if it wasn’t for Ming Lang’s indifference, Ji Chenli is Ming Lang’s legal partner, half master of the Ming family, how could he be bullied like that in a place where he can’t see No one dared to come out and speak for her.
Those who have been in the entertainment industry all the year round are the most discerning people, but Fan Minghong pays a little attention to Ji Chenli, they dare not presumptuously, in the end, it is all her own fault, whether it is Ji Chenli or Mingyan, Ming You are just punishing others with your mistakes.
Mingyan’s good attitude of admitting her mistakes made Minglang unable to say anything more, and the two sisters stood and knelt in silence.
After a cup of tea, the butler came in and whispered in Ming Lang’s ear, “Miss, Miss Han brought Miss Xie here.”
Ming Lang nodded, “Tell them to wait for me in the side hall.”
After the butler left, Ming Lang said to Ming Yan: “You are disrespectful to elder sister-in-law, you should take care of the family law yourself.” After speaking, he walked out of the ancestral hall and walked towards the side hall.
Mingyan looked at her sister’s indifferent back, with a bitter face, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, she didn’t care so much about Ji Chenli before, why did she suddenly change after getting married? Based on what Ming Lang said, she might have to kneel in the ancestral hall for a day. Mingyan moved her knee that was almost useless, frowning, sighing secretly that women are so fickle, especially women who are superior.
In the side hall, Han Xinyuan and Xie Qinglan sat on the sofa drinking tea, Xie Qinglan hugged her chest coldly, Han Xinyuan whispered something in her ear from time to time, occasionally Xie Qinglan would sneer, with a little disdain in his eyes.
“Ah Lang, are you here?” Han Xinyuan was still persuading Xie Qinglan, seeing that Minghong’s expression brightened, he went up to him with a smile on his face and tried to grab Minghong’s arm, but Minghong sideways dodged him, Han Xinyuan’s eyes dimmed Quite a few, Xie Qinglan saw the interaction between the two, and her face became even more gloomy.
“Ah Lang, I brought Qinglan to apologize today.” Han Xinyuan put away his gloomy expression, pulled himself together and said with a smile: “I heard about what happened yesterday, Qinglan did something wrong. Later, Qinglan and I will personally apologize to Miss Ji, so don’t be angry, Ah Lang.” She said with reddish eye circles, and tears began to accumulate in her big eyes, as if they could fall at any time, she was so pitiful.
Xie Qinglan was furious, and said loudly: “I didn’t do anything wrong, and I won’t apologize! What kind of white lotus is that surnamed Ji pretending to be now? Why didn’t she see her when she was playing tricks to force Minglang to marry her?” so?”
“Qinglan, shut up!” Han Xinyuan pulled Xie Qinglan’s arm and shouted in a low voice, then turned his head to Minglang anxiously, “Ah Lang, it is true that Qinglan did something wrong this time, but she also did it for me, you…you Don’t blame her, okay?”
Ming Lang looked at Han Xinyuan who was about to shed tears, then at Xie Qinglan who was beside him, and finally said, “I didn’t say it before, so you misunderstood.”
Han Xinyuan’s heart skipped a beat, as if he knew what she was going to say, he bit his lip and shook his head as if begging, begging Minglang not to say anything.
But Ming Lang still said, “I married Ji Chenli because I love her.”
The tears in Han Xinyuan’s eyes finally couldn’t hold back, and big ones fell down.
Xie Qinglan rushed in front of Ming Lang, gritted her teeth and said, “What did you say?”
“I love Ji Chenli.”
“Minglang, you!” Xie Qinglan clenched her fists and was about to punch Minglang’s pretty face, but was restrained by Han Xinyuan, “Qinglan!”
Xie Qinglan hesitated for a few minutes, her clenched fists loosened, she turned her head and threw herself into the sofa as if to vent her anger, without even looking at Minghong.
Ming Lang’s face was as indifferent as before, and he couldn’t see any emotions clearly, and said to Xie Qinglan: “I have already contacted you about the American directing Ph. “
“Ah Lang!” Even Han Xinyuan couldn’t take it anymore, crying and shouting to Ming Lang, “Just because of Ji Chenli, you don’t even want friends? What are you doing!”
Xie Qinglan has just made her mark in the domestic film industry. She won the best director award before graduating from university. She is currently the most promising new-generation director in China. The future is boundless. The speed of elimination in the entertainment industry is not only for stars, it is also for the industry. For anyone in the film, Xie Qinglan’s career is booming right now. If she goes abroad at this time, the contacts she has formed in the domestic director circle will be over. Needless to say, how difficult it is for Chinese directors in the United States to get ahead, Han Xinyuan He and Xie Qinglan are close friends who have known each other since college, how could she not be angry at Ming Lang’s ruthless move to break people’s backs.
“Ming Lang.” Xie Qinglan sneered, “Just for an actor, you are doing well.”
After she finished speaking, she bumped into Minghong and left without looking back, only Minglang and Han Xinyuan were left in the side hall.
With tears on Han Xinyuan’s face, he choked up and asked her, “You said you love Ji Chenli, is that true?”
