After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 648 - 638: Eat More
As she left, Jiang Lingxi had a string of Buddha beads on her wrist.
In Wu Jue’s words: The Buddha beads naturally carry Buddha energy for protection, countering sinister forces. Wearing them is better than not wearing them.
So, these Buddha beads temporarily changed owners.
However, unless Jiang Lingxi was attending an event and needed accessories to match her makeup and dress, she rarely wore accessories, not even earrings. Other accessories were even rarer on her.
Just upon returning, Tong Yue and her team noticed it.
"Xixi, you went out with Mr. Shen, and just bought a string of Buddha beads back?"
After they were left behind, they guessed the two should have other plans like a date, which was the main reason for not bringing them along as third wheels.
But what couple goes on a date and buys Buddha beads for the girlfriend!
Seeing the Buddha beads, she only thought of one phrase: Clean heart and few desires!
"They weren’t bought, a friend gave them to ." Jiang Lingxi glanced at the rather eye-catching Buddha beads on her wrist, thought for a mont, and found an explanation, "He said I’ve been encountering so vile people lately, and wearing Buddha beads can ward off evil."
"Oh!"
The few people suddenly understood, then got a bit nervous.
"Then we’d better be cautious too, don’t accidentally fall into soone else’s trap."
It’s good that their artist’s popularity is on the rise, but if no one envies you, you’re just diocre. In this circle, openly or secretly, there are countless people wanting to find a fault with their artist to bring them down and take their place.
Now is not the ti for complacency.
Jiang Lingxi saw that they had beco a bit more alert, which achieved her goal.
She and Shen Yunqing believed they could handle Wu Hua’s covert sches, but those around them couldn’t afford to be completely unwary.
After all, by Wu Jue’s estimation, Wu Hua might be desperate enough to use underhanded tactics now, and it’s not impossible they might target ordinary people.
Especially her close ones, it’s always right to stay alert.
The string of Buddha beads had more than a hundred beads, and they could wrap around the wrist about four tis.
Before going to bed, Jiang Lingxi also wrapped two loops on Shen Yunqing’s wrist.
"Just in case."
She didn’t forget that last night this person held her hand to keep warm all night.
After such prolonged contact, doing this made her feel a bit more secure.
Anyway, it was just for sleeping, it wasn’t in the way.
But when she heard the knocking at the door the following morning and woke up, Jiang Lingxi montarily forgot what she had done before going to sleep.
Sitting up, she instinctively raised her hand to brush so ssy hair, only to have the other hand tug in the opposite direction.
The result of two people not pulling lightly was that neither could move the other, their arms hitting the headboard at the sa ti, the Buddha beads on their wrists clashing loudly against the brass edge of the headboard.
The two, still a bit drowsy, instantly beca alert.
Outside, the originally light and slow knocking on the door paused.
Lu Zhengzheng blushed and turned around, running into Tong Yue who had just finished washing up and ca out of the room.
"Are they awake?"
Lu Zhengzheng opened her mouth hesitantly, "They should be, I guess."
"What do you an by ’should be awake’, Casuo’s people are coming to pick them up soon, and they mustn’t be late today."
She was about to go over and knock again.
Lu Zhengzheng hurriedly pulled her back, "Sister Tong, I heard so noise in Xixi’s room, like they hit the headboard."
Tong Yue: "..."
Only then did she see the aningful little expression on Lu Zhengzheng’s flushed face, lightly coughing, "Well, then let’s have breakfast sent up first."
When Jiang Lingxi ca out of the room, she t Tong Yue’s hesitant yet unspeakable expression again.
"Do you have sothing you want to say to , Sister Tong?"
Tong Yue was about to speak when she saw Mr. Shen coming out behind her, and the words turned into, "Eat more."
Eat more to replenish your strength!
After all, the day ahead is going to be busy.
"By the way, Zhengzheng, notify Miss Wang’s side and have soone co clean the room today, okay?"
After giving instructions, Tong Yue couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Lingxi, who was still eating.
Ah, she worries too much about their artist.
Jiang Lingxi: "..."
I just feel like her eyes are sohow weird!
After breakfast, Shen Yunqing received a ssage on his phone from Carl.
The people would be arriving soon.
They didn’t want to keep them waiting, so they got ready and headed downstairs.
But coincidentally, they ran into Gu Qiantong, surrounded by bodyguards and assistants, in the elevator.
Today was the official start of the international fashion event, so all invited guests were heading out.
The two exchanged a glance in the elevator, and Jiang Lingxi was the first to look away.
Even though everyone was out on this day, their schedules were different.
She and Gu Qiantong weren’t in the sa lane, not even needing to maintain superficial courtesy.
Once Jiang Lingxi averted her gaze, Gu Qiantong shifted her attention to Shen Yunqing, who had put on his mask again.
The more indifferent he was to her, the more she wanted to see her reflection in this man’s eyes.
Even if it turned into an obsession, she didn’t care!
Recalling the words of that woman in the black dress the night before last, her fingers under her sleeves clenched her palm.
Silently telling herself not to rush!
Exiting the elevator, Gu Qiantong watched as Jiang Lingxi took Shen Yunqing into a flashy private sports car, while her manager and assistant got into the arranged vehicle by Zhongxiaolou, and summoned her assistant over, "Find out whose car Jiang Lingxi got into."
That woman in the black dress said she would help her, but she wouldn’t put all her hope in that person.
Carl dutifully parked the car at his grandfather’s studio entrance.
Jiang Lingxi and Shen Yunqing had been here once before, so this ti they were familiar with the place.
It was the first ti for Tong Yue and others in the car behind them, and seeing the building they had only seen online, they couldn’t contain their nervous excitent.
They were thrilled not only to see the real thing but also to get a chance to go inside for a tour.
Especially seeing Mr. Casuo personally co to the first-floor lobby to greet them, they felt truly honored.
"The dress has been altered and prepared." Casuo directly led Jiang Lingxi and the others into a spacious, bright room, "This room is exclusively yours today, and that kid Carl is on standby outside. Prepare well, I’ll be off now."
Everyone was busy today, but Casuo was certainly one of the busiest.
For his last grand show before retirent, he was determined to personally set up and direct.
The setup phase was complete, and the upcoming direction was just as important.
After watching Mr. Casuo leave in his car, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief.
Though this elder was friendly and approachable with their artist, considering his position as a fashion industry titan, his deanor couldn’t ease their tension.
"Quick, I want to see the dress Mr. Casuo lent us."
