If Xie He had not been so mysterious over the phone, he would not have agreed to meet her. He had to make things clear. No matter what Xie He had to say, he only had ten minutes. He still had to rush to pick Jin Nian home.
Other than that, he still had to go to an appointment tonight. It was not a social gathering, but a gathering of good friends. Lu An asked Jin Nian, “Do you know the animation director, Fu Sicheng?”
Jin Nian’s eyes flashed with surprise, “Of course 1 know.”
Fu Sicheng had long been at the top of the pyramid in the domestic comics industry. Every one of his works had become a hot topic in the domestic comics and animation industry. Jin Nian had liked him for many years. Whenever his works were released in the cinema, she would rush to support him on the day of the premiere.
Fu Sicheng was very low-key and rarely appeared in public. It was said that he got married at a young age, and his first love is his wife. All these years, whenever Fu Sicheng had a new work on the market, the entertainment paparazzi would secretly take photos of his life. Unfortunately, in the end, they could not get any valuable material. His life in the entertainment industry could be said to be too boring. Every time the paparazzi squatted for a few days, they would only be able to take pictures of him shopping with his wife and playing basketball. He was definitely a doting husband.
Therefore, during the early times of Jiang Qingchi’s popularity, many people compared him with Fu Sicheng. When they learned that Jiang Qingchi had a girlfriend who he had been dating since university, the anime fans joked that the two of them were the only two good men in the anime industry. Jiang Qingchi also took the opportunity to announce the good news of his marriage at the press conference of his new movie, which attracted a wave of fans for himself.
Lu An wanted to bring Jin Nian along to the dinner with Fu Sicheng, but if Jin Nian felt uncomfortable, he would not force her. After all, Jin Nian was not the type to interact with strangers. At this age, her social circle had long been fixed, and she did not have the energy to make new friends.
But, that was Fu Sicheng! The big boss she had liked for a long time! Of course Jin Nian wanted to see him!
Lu An could guess what she was thinking without Jin Nian needing to say anything. He took the initiative to break her doubts, “If you feel uncomfortable after meeting him, we can go home.”
“Hehe, alright.” Jin Nian’s tense expression finally relaxed a little.
Lu An did not want to lose his temper in front of Jin Nian, so he resisted the urge to look for Xie He. The little girl he coaxed every day was now like a withered flower. Xie He had stretched her hand too far. He had to make this clear to the other party.
The meeting place was a very famous campsite nearby, with a swimming pool, barbecue stalls, and open-air KTV. The lawn was filled with cosmos flowers, symbolizing happiness. As the sun set, those gorgeous flowers looked like stars blooming on the earth. The temperature was just right in this season. It was very suitable for eating and chatting outdoors.
As soon as the car arrived, Jin Nian heard a child’s laughter. Lu An introduced her to Fu Sicheng’s child. He had brought his wife and child with him today, so it would not be too awkward for Jin Nian. It was her first time meeting the Almighty in her heart, so Jin Nian could not help but feel a little nervous.
Fu Sicheng was even more handsome in person than on camera. He had a neat buzz cut and sharp facial features. He was very manly. And his wife was said to be the school belle who graduated from the drama academy. Because she studied cla.s.sical dance, her every move was beautiful and gentle. There was also their adorable child, Fu Duoduo.
Sure enough, it was hard to be silent at a gathering with a child around. Fu Duoduo was smart and cute. He held Jin Nian’s hand and smiled, “Sister, you’re so beautiful, very very beautiful!”
This was the first time Jin Nian had experienced why Fu Sicheng was nicknamed the doting husband by his fans. There were some things that could not be faked, such as Fu Sicheng’s unintentional consideration for Shen Mengyu. Fu Sicheng did not talk much, but every sentence started with his wife.
“Honey, spray some florida water. There are mosquitoes outside.”
“Honey, do you want juice or c.o.ke? I’ll get it for you.”
“Fu Duoduo, don’t bother your mother. Go play by yourself.”
“Honey, eat more meat. Look how thin you are…”
“Baby, do you want more lamb kebab?”
Shen Mengyu was annoyed by his words: “Fu Sicheng, we’re chatting. Can you not keep coming over to disturb us?”
The big shot could only smile and leave. Shen Mengyu was very easy to get along with. Although she was a few years older than Jin Nian, she had been doted on by her parents since she was young. After they fell in love, Fu Sicheng had always doted on her like a child, so she was very innocent and gentle. She could tell that Jin Nian was curious about her love story with Fu Sicheng, so she told her openly.
She even poured Jin Nian a gla.s.s of bayberry wine, saying that they had grown the bayberries in the backyard. Every year, when they were ripe, and they could not finish them all, so they would use them to make jam or wine..
