Full-time actor

Chapter 488 [53] Jiang Wen’s surprise!

The next day, April 4th.

Sandrine came to China this time mainly to handle divorce procedures with Jiang Wen, so she stayed in a hotel near Jiang Wen's home.

Looking at the familiar buildings around her, Sandrine couldn't help but feel sad.

When Jiang Yilang was young, she lived here for more than a year. After she met Jiang Wen, this place became a place she often visited. Every bit of memories came to her mind.

Tears began to flow again without me noticing.

These days, she couldn't help feeling sad when she thought about divorcing Jiang Wen, and she cried almost every day.

"mom!"

Jiang Yilang, who was a pure and generous girl next to her, suddenly saw Sandrine crying, and hurriedly took out a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into her mother's mouth.

"Yilang!"

Sandrine cried and hugged Jiang Yilang in her arms, choking with sobs as she chewed the chocolate her daughter gave her.

She doesn't know why her marriage life has become like this? !

She really wanted to save this marriage, but the female doctor's pride and arrogance made her unwilling to beg Jiang Wen to come back, not to mention... he already had a new love.

"We can live well even without Dad!"

Sandrine murmured to herself, wiped away her tears, looked at her daughter in her arms, and forced a smile.

Jiang Yilang seemed to know something. He blinked, looked up at his mother, and hugged her tighter.

Jingle Bell!
The bedside phone rang. Sandrine adjusted herself and picked up the receiver.

"Hello, Ms. Sandrine, there are two ladies who have an appointment with you and would like to come upstairs to see you!"

"it is good!"

Sandrine thought of Ms. Liu Xiaoli who called her yesterday. She wanted to invite her daughter to make a movie, which she was actually very opposed to. However, she said she wanted to have a good talk with her in person. The most important thing was that Jiang Yilang also told her about this and the little girl was a little interested in making a movie.

Jiang Wen also called her daughter yesterday and told her that it was Chen Yu's new play. Sandrine certainly knew the identity of this very famous actor in China.

So, Sandrine finally allowed the other party to come.

It was entirely for Jiang Yilang's sake.

Tuk Tuk!

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Yilang went forward to open the door sensibly, and a very beautiful mother and daughter appeared outside the door. Of course, they were Liu Yifei and her daughter.

"Hello, little beauty~~"

Liu Yifei waved to Jiang Yilang with a smile, holding a very beautiful Barbie doll in her hand.

"Mother--"

Jiang Yilang turned to look at Sandrine, who smiled at them and said, "The room is a bit messy, sorry!"

"fine!"

Liu Xiaoli smiled and pointed at Liu Yifei next to her: "My daughter!"

"I know her, she's a very famous actress in China!"

While studying Chinese studies, Sandrine also often browsed domestic news. Of course, she knew Liu Yifei, and even knew that she and Chen Yu seemed to be a couple and went to the same school as her ex-husband. However, she was not very clear about Liu Xiaoli.

"Auntie, hello!"

Liu Yifei politely bowed slightly to Sandrine and greeted her, appearing very cultured.

"Hello there!"

Sandrine looked at Liu Yifei and couldn't help but admire her beauty. In her heart, she admired Liu Xiaoli beside her for raising her daughter so well.

At least, Sandrine felt very comfortable with this first impression, and after Liu Yifei greeted her, she took Jiang Yilang to dismantle the big Barbie doll.

Liu Xiaoli and Sandrine looked at the two people playing there. Suddenly, Liu Xiaoli said, "In the blink of an eye, they have grown up so much. When my daughter was 11 years old, it seems like she is still in front of me..."

"Yes, it really is a matter of seconds for a child to grow up."

Sandrine felt sad again. Liu Xiaoli suddenly looked at her and said, "Actually, you should go out more often to relax. The more you stay in your room, the more unhappy you will be!"

Seeing Sandrine looking at her, Liu Xiaoli quickly pulled her aside and said softly, "Sissi's father and I divorced when she was four years old, and I raised her alone!"

"I can understand how you feel!"

Liu Xiaoli looked at Sandrine sincerely, but Sandrine never expected that the woman in front of her would have such an experience.

"Women have their own careers and cannot take care of the family. If your husband is very capable, the marriage is actually somewhat doomed!"

"You always have to make a choice, either give up your family or give up your career..."

Of course Sandrine understood what Liu Xiaoli said.

How could she not know this truth?
In fact, she had thought about this question many times. Her union with Jiang Wen was a mistake from the beginning. She was destined to return to France, and Jiang Wen could not go back with her.

Moreover, cultural habits are different. Jiang Wen needs a good wife to take care of him, but Sandrine has the right to work, and Jiang Wen cannot interfere with her!

In addition, there are many temptations in the entertainment industry, and his wife is not around for a long time, so it is inevitable that he will be distracted... Everything seems to be destined.

"Now, I live for my daughter. She loves performing, so I will always be with her!"

"When she was Yilang's age, she suffered from depression and was bullied by kids at school. She was very unhappy..."

"..."

Liu Xiaoli talked about Liu Yifei's past, and Sandrine felt the same way. In fact, she already felt that Jiang Yilang had some signs of depression. Sometimes he would be in a daze and not talkative... Jiang Wen seemed to have told her about this as well.

But she hated this man, so she didn't take it to heart. When Liu Xiaoli said this, Sandrine suddenly became nervous.

"What I feared most at that time was being alone with Sissi!"

"Being face to face with each other was the most frightening thing for me, because I didn't know what questions she would suddenly ask me, especially about her father..."

With every word Liu Xiaoli spoke, Sandrine became more nervous.

She is also experiencing this.

"I didn't say that on purpose just to get Yilang to film!"

"Take her to do something that makes her happy. We adults can adjust ourselves, but it is sometimes difficult to communicate with children, except for their peers. Moreover, this period is also the time when their personalities change most dramatically!"

“Yes, I am worried about this problem too…”

Sandrine covered her head and spoke in pain.

"Everything will pass!"

“But our children are everything to us!”

"Marriage is already an established fact, so the only thing we have to do is to bravely step forward!"

Liu Xiaoli was using her life experience to comfort the woman in front of her.

After she heard Liu Yifei talk about this last night, she actually understood Sandrine's thoughts a little bit; what was the difference between her and herself back then?

Liu Xiaoli's parents are both artists, and the family influence since childhood has made her full of longing for marriage; the same is true for Sandrine, her parents both graduated from the Versailles Academy of Fine Arts, and both are painters.

Sandrine's parents have been married for more than ten years and have always maintained a loving family atmosphere. A woman who grows up in such a family is destined to be conservative and firm in her thinking, and she will not divorce unless it is absolutely necessary.

In fact, this marriage is indeed the result of a love impulse.

The simplest example is that after getting married, Jiang Wen discussed with her that if she returned to France to work, they would have to live apart across borders, which would be detrimental to the stability of the family and marriage. Jiang Wen asked her to be a full-time housewife, but she did not agree!
In 96, Sandrine took Jiang Yilang back to Paris, France to coach, while Jiang Wen stayed in the capital to make movies, living like a bachelor.

Liu Xiaoli was in much the same situation back then.

If she wanted to do this for the sake of her family, she would have to give up her beloved dancing career, but she did not agree, and the end result was the failure of her marriage.

"I'm an experienced person, and I want to give you some advice, which is to take your daughter out for more walks!"

"It not only relaxes myself, but also allows the child to temporarily forget the existence of his father. If I can see him occasionally, it might not be a bad choice..."

"..." Liu Xiaoli smiled and hugged Sandrine. The two chatted for a while, then turned around and saw Liu Yifei and Jiang Yilang who were having fun.

Jiang Yilang was wearing a crystal necklace on her chest, which was just made by Liu Yifei for her.

The two looked at their two daughters who were getting along very harmoniously. Sandrine couldn't help but shook her head: "Your daughter loves Chen Yu very much!"

The underlying meaning of this sentence is that she actually asked her mother to act as a lobbyist for her boyfriend.

"It's mutual!"

"Xixi's career ambition is not as strong as mine. After we get married, I'm not too worried that she will repeat my mistakes!"

"Because her father and I are not in the same profession, Xixi and Chen Yu can often meet each other when they are filming..."

When Liu Xiaoli said this, she suddenly remembered: "Oh, Sissi's father is from the Chinese Embassy in France and has always been in Paris!"

"Oh?"

"What's the name? I might know it!"

Sandrine did have business dealings with the French Embassy in France. She came to China thanks to the financial support from the French Office in the Imperial Capital.

The topic she was researching also required contact with the Chinese Embassy in France, and her teacher, Shi Zhouren, was one of the three most famous sinologists in the world and one of the inheritors of Sino-French cultural relations.

"An Shaokang, do you know him?"

"Oh my God, you are Professor An's--"

"Sorry, I really didn't think about it!"

Sandrine looked at Liu Xiaoli with some surprise. Liu Xiaoli smiled and seemed calm.

"I have met Professor An many times and asked him for help a lot!"

"Actually, when Xixi told me about you yesterday, I thought of this relationship..."

Because of An Shaokang, the two people became closer.

“You are a great mother!”

“I want to learn from you!”

Sandrine's words were very sincere. Looking at the two girls playing there, Sandrine, who had originally been very opposed to the idea of ​​Jiang Yilang making a movie, felt a little relieved.

Perhaps, just as Liu Xiaoli said.

Just take it as a way to relax and make my daughter happy, although there is a possibility... that Jiang Wen will come to visit her on set.

But he is still Jiang Yilang's father, and this identity will never change.

Although Sandrine hated him, deep down, she still loved that man a little.

"Marriage is only a part of our life, not everything!"

"Well, you succeeded in convincing me!"

Sandrine smiled. After chatting with Liu Xiaoli for such a long time, she suddenly felt relieved. Although she still couldn't forgive Jiang Wen, she agreed with Liu Xiaoli's approach on the matter of the child.

"Actually, I'm not trying to persuade them. I just don't want the children to get hurt because of us as parents!"

"Change to someone else, I'm too lazy to come here..."

Liu Xiaoli smiled and Sandrine smiled a little, and the two felt that they had met too late.

The more we talked, the more interesting it became.

Liu Xiaoli did not lie. If it were anyone else, she would not show up at all, and Liu Yifei probably would not do so either. It was precisely because Sandrine and Jiang Yilang were very similar to them that Liu Yifei thought it was worth a try.

The final result, of course, was just as she expected.

Her mother is the most suitable candidate, and she is the best sister who accompanies Jiang Yilang.

In the afternoon, Liu Yifei took Jiang Yilang to the amusement park and the park in the imperial capital. She did not have any purpose, she just saw her past shadow in Jiang Yilang.

So I played with this sister deeply.

……

In the evening, Chen Yu, who had been waiting for news, received a call from Jiang Wen.

The guy looked extremely surprised when he spoke: "No, how did you convince Sandrine?"

"I don't know, my wife is a lobbyist!"

Chen Yu never expected that it could be done in one day?
"Awesome! I underestimated your wife. She's a talented person!"

"interesting!"

Jiang Wen laughed on the phone, and then said, "Send me the script, I haven't agreed to it yet!"

"Depend on!"

"It's useless if you don't agree. Your wife...oh, no, it'll be fine if your ex-wife agrees!"

Chen Yu gave him a middle finger, and Jiang Wen got angry when he heard it: "You used me and kicked me away?"

"Haha, isn't that the situation now?"

"Fuck, stop talking nonsense and send me the script quickly. I have to review it for my daughter!"

"Okay, okay, you're awesome..."

Chen Yu chatted with him for a while and then hung up the phone.

Just as he was about to turn on the computer, Liu Yifei called.

"nailed it?"

Chen Yu asked hurriedly, his tone completely different from Jiang Wenke's.

Right now, my wife is the absolute hero.

"That's about right. It should be OK!"

Liu Yifei said cheerfully, "But it's not because of you. I just feel that Sister Yilang is so pitiful. If you bully her on the set, I will never forgive you!"

"..."

Chen Yu was a little amused and confused when he heard this: "Sister, you got it the other way around, right?"

Who dares to bully Jiang Wen’s daughter?

Besides, given her age, it's good enough that she doesn't bully others. What's more, Jiang Wen has to be in charge of the crew, so the weight of this producer is still very heavy.

"No, I'm a little curious, how did you convince her mother?"

Chen Yu knew Sandrine very well. She was completely different from Jiang Wen.

The fact that two people got married was actually something that was beyond everyone's expectations. Jiang Wen even complained to him yesterday. When he saw her cell phone number, his scalp went numb.

When the two of them were arguing the most, Jiang Wen even had physiological diarrhea. She is such a terrible woman.

"Put yourself in her shoes. It wasn't me who convinced her. It was my mom!"

"My mom is so awesome?"

"Yes, yes, your mother. How are you going to thank her?"

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Chen Yu in annoyance. Chen Yu was used to talking nonsense to her anyway: "Will you arrange a role for her in the new play?"

"Is that how you thank my mom?"

"Haha, just kidding. Next time I will cook for my mother myself to reward her!"

"That's pretty much it!"

Liu Xiaoli probably wouldn't accept any gifts, but Chen Yu personally cooked a meal for his future mother-in-law. Liu Xiaoli must have been very touched!
