Chapter 117: Thoughts from afar
Chapter 117: The thoughts in the distance
Xu Shaodong has not gone out again in the past two days, but he has received calls from everyone in Tianhai one after another. Gan Wangchun is no exception. As soon as he calls Xu Shaodong, he will be tired and say that his mobile phone is being blown up every day. Now when he sees his mobile phone, he wants to go crazy.
Xu Shaodong's mobile phone card in Tianhai is now handed over to Gan Wangchun. As an agent, he will handle these things. Now, the people who are looking for him are in groups, especially the bosses of the two entertainment companies, who have a call every day and will never be absent, and the price is getting higher and higher.
Just yesterday, the boss of Hongyi Entertainment had already increased the signing fee to 100 million, which was a sky-high price. In the Chinese entertainment industry, no star has such a high contract value. It can be seen that Xu Shaodong's first album has become popular. Although Pioneer has made the greatest preparations, the sales distribution still cannot keep up.
With Tianhai as the center, the six southeastern provinces are already in short supply, let alone entering the northern market. There are too many northern netizens actively ordering this album online. In desperation, Pioneer set up an ordering and sales department to handle orders specifically.
It's been four days, and the numbers that can be counted so far alone have been sold. The album has sold more than two million copies. Pioneer's finance is now sluggish in counting money.
"Shaodong, when will you come back? It's so boring that you are not here. You don't know. Now the reporter is surrounding Pioneer and wants to get some information about you. Even Pioneer, a small employee, is particularly popular, which makes my sister-in-law have to issue ban orders again and again. Alas, Pioneer has developed this time."
Xu Shaodong smiled and said, "Okay, don't talk about these messy things. Just take a look at it and deal with it. Aren't there still ten songs left? I've got enough of the second album next year. I don't have time to pay attention to you things. Don't look for me if you have anything to do, and don't look for me even if you have something to do. Are I busy?"
Xu Shaodong didn't believe that Gan Wangchun complained. He was afraid that no matter how hard he was, he would be secretly happy. Pioneer can develop, and it is also a good thing for family members. Besides, the most important thing is that this boy can correct his unrighteous nature. That is really something that is more worthy of happiness than making more money.
"Okay, I won't tell you all this. Shaodong, when will I come back? My brothers have nothing to think about, but these women are worried about you. Do you have the heart to let them waste their youth and their beauty will pass away?"
This guy also knew how to say a few wrinkled words, which made Xu Shaodong laugh and cry, and said, "Look soon, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will be back in a few days."
Gan Wangchun wanted to quit, but Xu Shaodong hung up the phone, but not long after, the phone rang again. Xu Shaodong couldn't hang up the phone this time, it was Liu Yixue who came.
"Shaodong, when you return to the capital, life is fine, are you not adapting?" The soft greeting, with a usual warmth, Liu Yixue's heart is integrated into this soft speech, which sounds comfortable.
Xu Shaodong smiled and said, "It's okay, no matter what, I'm also a member of the Xu family. This time I'm back, everyone is very nice to me. Yixue, I'll go back after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you miss me?"
"You said, I miss you more time than you miss me. Humph, if you don't tell me if you have something, am I such a stingy person?" I was a little depressed, but when Xu Shaodong said he would come back after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Liu Yixue became happy.
In fact, Li Wanfen had called her two days ago. Regarding Xu Shaodong's engagement, I need to explain to this girl. Although it is a bit inappropriate, the honor and disgrace of the Xu family and the success or failure are related to too many people and things, so Li Wanfen has no choice but to do it.
Her future lover was engaged to someone else, and she couldn't accept it. Although her mother repeatedly comforted her, she was very angry. However, she was a sensible woman. She believed in Aunt Wan's explanation. This was not what Shaodong meant, but it was just a way of unity that the family expressed to the outside world, not to ask Shaodong to really marry that woman.
Xu Shaodong promised her to come back as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, which means that he really didn't take the engaged woman to heart, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed back in such a hurry. In fact, she didn't know that Xu Shaodong's return was ordered by the old man to prepare for the military exercise competition at the end of the year and had nothing to do with his children's affair.
But women are like this, thinking a little more than men.
"What's the matter!" Xu Shaodong asked in confusion without coming back to his senses.
Liu Yixue said angrily: "What else is there? You are going to get engaged, but you don't tell you anything. Shaodong, do you want to hide it from me for the rest of your life and let me be your lover, and you will never see it all!"
Xu Shaodong was sweating in his heart. He really didn't care much about this matter. The old man had the final say. Then the old man handled it with his mother. He didn't ask or care. Just like what grandpa said, it was just a form. If it was presented to outsiders, it was essentially false.
"Ah, this matter, Yixue, I'm sorry, I want to tell you about this matter, but I don't know how to speak, but don't get me wrong. This is what the elderly in the family meant. I can't refuse, and I don't have this idea, you know, I like you."
After being close to Xu Shaodong, this was the first time I heard him say he liked him. Liu Yixue's eyes narrowed, but her tone was still very angry: "Auntie Fen explained this to me. Shaodong, you know, I am the person who loves you the most in the world. As long as I can be by your side, I can bear any grievances. If you are engaged, you should get engaged, but you are not allowed to fall in love with that woman, and you are not allowed to be intimate with her. If you do it, I will reward you when you come back."
The meaning of this reward is of course meaningful. Xu Shaodong smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I promise you that I will come back and let me kiss a few more, okay!"
"Hmph, I won't tell you anymore. You Dasepi, Shaodong, I'll wait for you to come back." After calling Dasepi, I couldn't help but add another sentence. It can be seen that Liu Yixue's heart is sweet at this moment. Oh, women who have entered love are sometimes indescribable. They used to be as cold as ice, but now they show warmth everywhere, and they are simply two completely different people.
The phone was hung up, Liu Yixue hugged the phone to her chest, fell on the bed, pulled the quilt, and covered her face. Unexpectedly, she would indulge in this way to attract that man. She used to feel shy even thinking about this.
In the past two days, the Xu family has been preparing for Mr. Xu’s birthday party and Shaodong’s engagement party. In fact, it has been integrated into one. Taking this opportunity to celebrate, the Xu family has not had such a lively year.
In addition to the phone calls between Gan Wangchun and Liu Yixue, Lu Yunqian and Zhong Yuemin also called. Perhaps because of the hot sales of the first album, they even spoke with Xu Shaodong in a very excited tone. If Xu Shaodong hadn't been able to stand the chattering of their sparrows and forced to hang up the phone, it would have been a few hours.
Li Wanfen walked over gently, without saying a word, but sat down next to Xu Shaodong and sighed heavily. This abnormal appearance was completely different from her happy mother on weekdays.
"Mom, what's wrong? She frowned and had a bitter face. She didn't look good anymore."
"Mom is old, why do you want to be so beautiful?" Li Wanfen turned her head and looked at Xu Shaodong, looking very carefully. Then she stretched out her hand and gently covered his head. She forced a smile on her face, saying, "Shaodong, time flies so fast. You have grown up in the blink of an eye and are about to get engaged now. Mom just sighs."
Xu Shaodong also smiled. Seeing that my mother was afraid that her son would be taken away by others, she sighed, it was obvious that she was depressed!
"Mom, you have been asking me to find a girlfriend, get married and have children, why are you giving up when things come to an end?"
"Okay, don't tease me anymore. Shaodong, mom is a little worried about you. This kind of marriage between aristocratic families is very common in our big families. When your father married me, the old man was not very happy. But our Li family is also a wealthy family, so that's fine. Now I didn't expect that my son would also follow the old path of marriage. Mom is afraid that you will be wronged!"
Xu Shaodong was a little happy and asked with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, why are you wronged? I can say that if you knew that the marriage partner was Ding Ningxue, I was afraid that everyone would envy me. You must know that Ningxue is called the number one beauty in Beijing by others?"
Li Wanfen shouted, "What kind of beauty is beautiful? Being a husband and wife is forever. Although you seem to be very compatible, this kind of marriage has no emotional foundation. It just puts two people who cannot be rejected together. Everyone is embarrassed. Shaodong, tell your mother honestly, do you like that Ding Ningxue?"
Xu Shaodong answered without even thinking about it: "I like it!"
"Really?" Li Wanfen was surprised and asked, "Do you really like her?"
"Mom, beauty, of course I like it. No matter how you say we can be considered friends, everyone knows that this is what the elderly in the family meant. Let's make do with it first. Ningxue is a sensible person. Although she is engaged, we are still friends."
Seeing that his son was so indifferent, Li Wanfen was still a little worried and said, "It would be best if you can think like this. It's just Shaodong. There is one thing you may not understand. Once you get engaged, it means that the relationship between the two has been recognized by everyone. Even if you are innocent, who would believe it? If one day, you really separate and you are a man, it doesn't matter, but Ningxue is a girl, who would believe that she is innocent?"
Xu Shaodong's smile froze. He really never considered this issue.
