Urban Hidden Dragon

Chapter 797 Life is like a play
Life is like a play, and Meng Jiao is an actor, so she is very familiar with acting skills.

What's more, the only audience is Zhao Dong, and under the mood, everything comes at his fingertips.

The acting skills are natural, not to mention that Zhao Dong can't see the flaws, even she almost believed it herself!

There was a strong gust of wind in her ears, Meng Jiao closed her eyes as if relieved!
After a while, the slap did not fall.

Meng Jiao opened her eyes, "Why don't you hit me, lest I get your hands dirty?"

"Forget it, since you already know what kind of woman I am now, can I trouble you not to pester me again?"

"Sorry, please step aside!"

Halfway there, Zhao Dong suddenly opened his mouth, "Are you tired?"

Meng Jiao raised her eyebrows, "Are you tired?"

Zhao Dong asked back, "Are you tired of acting?"

Meng Jiao turned her head with a flustered expression, "Zhao Dong, I don't know what you're talking about!"

Zhao Dong grabbed her, pulled up her sleeve, and raised her wrist to his eyes, "Then what is this?"

In front of her eyes was a bracelet, which was extremely delicate on her white and slender wrist.

Zhao Dong's memories went back to a few months ago, when he just got his first salary from Diyuan, and then bought a 925 sterling silver bracelet as a gift.

The price is not expensive, more than 100 yuan.

When I gave it away, I was worried that Meng Jiao would not want it.

It didn't work out, Meng Jiao readily accepted it.

She didn't expect that this bracelet was still worn by her for so long.

Meng Jiao explained casually, "I'm nostalgic for the past, so I just don't want to throw it away."

"Since you want to go back, take it away!"

As she spoke, she untied the bracelet and threw it at Zhao Dong.

Zhao Dong looked at her and asked stubbornly, "Why do you have to reject people thousands of miles away?"

Seeing that she couldn't escape, Meng Jiao simply admitted, "Okay, I admit, I liked you, but so what?"

"Zhao Dong, let me ask you, will you let go of Sophie for me now?"

"If you are willing to break up with her and give me a title, I can forgive you, and I am willing to go with you now!"

The atmosphere was suddenly quiet, and Meng Jiao pretended not to care on the surface.

But his fists were tightly clenched in one place, and even his heartbeat slowed down accordingly!

Zhao Dong shook his head without any hesitation, "Impossible!"

"Sophie is my wife, I won't do anything wrong to her!"

Meng Jiao's eyes were aggressive, "Really?"

"Then you are responsible for her because of that piece of paper?"

"Or is it because you like her that you are responsible for her?"

Zhao Dong said silently: "Of course I like her!"

Meng Jiao continued to ask, "Which one do you like?"

Zhao Dong said without hesitation, "For her, I will give everything!"

Meng Jiao sneered, "Then you love her?"

Zhao Dong nodded, "Yes, I love her!"

Meng Jiao took a deep breath, the answer she had expected long ago, her heart still constricted for a while.

She stared at Zhao Dong and asked, "Zhao Dong, since you love Sophie, you are reluctant to leave her."

"Then why are you pestering me now?"

"Let me tell you, even though I, Meng Jiao, are down and out, I will definitely not make others feel inferior!"

"Either, you give me a title, or, you stay away from me!"

Zhao Dong struggled: "Could it be that we can't be friends?"

"I want to help you as a friend!"

Meng Jiao seemed to hear a joke, "Do you think we can be friends?"

Zhao Dong asked back, "Why not?"

Meng Jiao clenched her fists, feeling an indescribable psychological gap.

She is also an extremely strong woman.

Back then, Zhao Dong had nothing, so she didn't have to think about those worldly views.

But now that the status of the two has been reversed, and she doesn't even have the living expenses for the next month, how should she face other people's evaluations, and how can she be friends with Zhao Dong in a chic way?
Meng Jiao took a deep breath, "Okay, Zhao Dong, since you feel that you owe me, then I will give you this chance to repay."

"Invest in a play and let me play the leading role, can you do it?"

Zhao Dong asked: "How much money does it cost to invest in a movie?"

Meng Jiao shrugged, "For a small cost, 500 million."

Zhao Dong said honestly: "I'm sorry, I can't afford so much money now."

Meng Jiao was not surprised at all, "Can't do it?"

"Then what friendship are you talking about with me? Wait until you can do it!"

Zhao Dong raised his eyebrows, "I remember, you were not so utilitarian before."

Meng Jiao laughed at herself: "Haven't you heard a saying? It's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal."

"Who wants to be treated like a dog when they are used to living the life of a superior person?"

Zhao Dong didn't say any more, "Let's go, I'll take you home first."

"As for the role, I'll help you find a solution!"

……

Speechless all the way.

After parking the car, Zhao Dong sent the man upstairs.

Meng Jiao didn't stop her, even if she knew it, she couldn't stop her.

This side was about to take out the key to open the door, when suddenly someone called from behind, "Meng Jiao from 3301, wait a minute!"

Meng Jiao turned her head, her expression changed, "Sister Wang..."

Zhao Dong also turned his head to look, the woman who walked over was around thirty, curly, fat, with heavy makeup.

Meng Jiao's expression was a little unnatural, "Sister Wang, can we talk about it later."

The middle-aged woman looked at Zhao Dong, and said mercilessly, "What's the matter, you have money to talk about a boyfriend, but no money to pay the rent?"

"Now you know how to save face? Why did you go early?"

Saying that, the woman looked at Zhao Dong again, looked him up and down and said, "Looking at you, you don't look like a master who has no money, please help pay the rent."

"It's been three months. If you don't pay, I will kick him out!"

Meng Jiao felt ashamed and tried her best to maintain the last bit of self-esteem in front of Zhao Dong.

In the end, she was afraid of what would happen, as if God deliberately abused her.

She must tear off her last fig leaf in front of Zhao Dong!
Afraid of Meng Jiao's embarrassment, Zhao Dong hurriedly said: "You go in first and pour me a glass of water, I'm a bit drunk!"

Meng Jiao returned to the room in a daze.

In shame and anger, she clenched her fists tightly, and there seemed to be a flame in her eyes!
Soon the door will open.

Zhao Dong asked in surprise, "Why don't you turn on the light?"

Meng Jiao returned to normal, "Did you pay the rent for me?"

Seeing Zhao Dong nodding, she sighed and said, "Forget that I borrowed from you, and I will pay you back later."

Just as he was talking, the sound of "creaking" shaking bed came from the next door.

Because the room is not soundproof, you can still hear strange sounds vaguely.

The atmosphere is awkward.

Zhao Dong broke the calm and said: "I have time tomorrow, let's rent another place."

"It's not convenient to live here."

Meng Jiao was obviously used to it, "What's the inconvenience?"

"It's close to the film crew, convenient for commuting, and there are snacks and night markets downstairs."

"Besides, if you spend all day with me, aren't you afraid that Sophie will find out?"

Although Zhao Dong didn't know what trouble Meng Jiao had encountered, he could tell that Meng Jiao was extremely sensitive now, so he didn't say much.

He got up and said, "Then I'll go first, call me if you need anything!"

Meng Jiao stood at the window until she saw the lights of the cars downstairs going away, then she sat on the ground in a daze.
