Facing this gift, Jiang An was a little hesitant to accept it. These two things were too expensive. It was not easy for even an aristocratic family to take them out.
Moreover, this was a personal gift from Mo Shen. He must have used his own money.
“Take it,” Li Mei said to Jiang An. “You have to remember this deep friendship. Mo Shen will be your good friend for the rest of your life.”
“Of course. The children call him Uncle,” Jiang An agreed with a smile.
Zou Bai walked over. “Mo Shen is a good person. I’m also grateful to him.”
Li Mei understood the hidden meaning. He could tell what Mo Shen was thinking, but he also admired the other party for being able to love selflessly and not treat him as a rival.
Li Mei shook her head gently. There were too many resentful men and women in this world. Mo Shen and An’an could only be said to be fated.
The marriage between the two families began to affect the stock market. The stocks of the Jiang family and the Zou family increased greatly. Many families began to consider whether they should arrange a marriage for the younger generations by sending them to television shows to show how loving they were.
Unfortunately, their thoughts were destined to fail. Dating shows popped up like bamboo shoots after a rain. No one could stand it anymore, so how could they have the energy to pay attention to which couple was wealthy?
The normal procedure was to hold the engagement ceremony first. After the two families had discussed it, they would hold it in Xiyun. The wedding would then be held in Beijing. This way, they could show that Jiang An and Zou Bai were equals.
Zou Bai still took all the responsibility and went to prepare for the engagement ceremony in high spirits. He looked even busier than when he was in the capital. The parents were shocked by his enthusiasm.
Jiang An was happy that she didn’t have to worry about it. She started preparing for the television drama. In the end, the story between her and Zou Bai wasn’t that exciting. If it was placed in a television drama, it would be too dull. Then, she would need to add extra storylines that didn’t exist in reality.
After listening to Jiang An’s retelling, the screenwriter had already written a few episodes to test the script. However, it looked a little vulgar. It was no different from those love dramas on the market. It even made her feel that the female lead was not a good person.
Jiang Huai knew that his sister was looking for a screenwriter and called everyone he could contact, hoping that they could come up with a good story.
In fact, Jiang An really wanted to hire the screenwriter of “Legend of Gan Lan” to write it. Her script and lines were very good, but she said that she did not know how to write modern dramas.
“Miss Jiang, what’s your position on this story?” the screenwriter asked.
Jiang An thought for a moment. “It’s a story where reason is more important than love. Although so many things have happened by accident, the male and female leads have to stick to their choices and do not sacrifice themselves for love.”
This gave the screenwriters a headache. Nowadays, popular romance dramas on the market were very idealistic. The male and female leads would misunderstand some unimportant things and quarrel before reconciling. This process repeated.
At the root of it all, the two of them had no healthy personalities. All their motives were to serve their love. In the end, they would collectively lose their intelligence when they got together. They only knew how to stick together every day.
Jiang An’s story requirements were very novel, but the screenwriters were a little excited. They also wanted to write a good script, not write something they despised under the instructions of the producer.
“Then I’ll tell everyone the entire plot,” Jiang An said.
The screenwriters listened carefully. The more they listened, the more they felt that something was wrong. The original story must be Zou Bai and Jiang An. No wonder they were taken to sign a confidentiality agreement as soon as they entered. They could not say a word about the story.
They could understand that it involved privacy, but when they heard the part about the two children, they were so shocked that they lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. They were afraid that they would be pulled out and beaten to death if they knew too much.
They really did not expect their backgrounds to be so legendary.
“You don’t have to be afraid.” Jiang An looked at them. “Sooner or later, people will know. It’ll be fine as long as you don’t tell anyone.”
Even if they had ten guts, they wouldn’t dare to tell anyone. Not to mention that the confidentiality agreement just now had legal effects, Zou Bai alone was already scary enough.
If they dared to go out and spout nonsense today, they would not be able to see the sun the next day.
The screenwriters quickly expressed that they wouldn’t say anything. Then, someone asked, “Then, is Miss Jiang going to act in this television drama herself?”
This question stumped Jiang An. Of course, she wanted to try a good script, but it was her story after all. It would be awkward if she acted with other male actors.
She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to devote herself to acting. In the end, she had always been acting as someone else. This was the first time she wouldn’t have to act. It was good enough to be Jiang An.
Jiang An had never doubted her professionalism, but this time, she really couldn’t get over it.
