When will the fog clear

Chapter 6 Murphy's Law (1)
Although Lin Miao came to Paris for the first time, she was no stranger to this place. Travel programs and sightseeing books have already made this romantic city deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The towering Eiffel Tower, the majestic Arc de Triomphe, the bustling Champs Elysées, romantic lovers kissing... everything is so fresh and beautiful.

One of her favorite comic stories happened in this city.If it wasn't for work, Lin Miao would definitely have to take a walk along the Seine River.

Soon, Susan's street photography on Fengshang Avenue was featured on the fashion sections of major domestic websites. Even foreign reporters wanted to take pictures of this oriental beauty, and then Susan was photographed with a certain luxury brand. The new director was chatting and laughing at the show, implying that she might win the brand endorsement rights for the new season.

Lin Miao looked at the newspaper and had to admire those media, who could see such a deep "inside story" from just one photo.

But according to Brother Shan and Susan, this trip to Paris is very valuable, and the rate of coverage directly reflects the celebrity's popularity.Lin Miao also took this opportunity to see the Tianqiao situation where big names gather. There are so many celebrities and stars that you can't see them. This is the so-called eye-opening, right?I only heard Jiaqi say something before, but I have seen it myself, and it is different. She only thought of the words "blossoms are like brocades".

Then Susan took a fashion blockbuster for a certain magazine in front of the Eiffel Tower, and she was still stunningly beautiful in front of the camera. Susan has gained both fame and fortune, which should have drawn a perfect ending to this trip.

But the trend of the entertainment industry can change as soon as it changes.

Just the day before they set off to return to China, a photo of "a celebrity with the surname S and a director with the surname W going to a hotel intimately" was posted on the Internet, but the clarity was not high.It was also revealed that the director surnamed W was married, and the media suddenly exploded. Many women surnamed S were shot and clarified that they were not the heroine in the photo. Even the body shape is very consistent.

At this time, someone dug up an interview with Susan's former "friend". In the conversation, it was mentioned that Susan had a close male friend for a long time. Although she did not have a public relationship, she had lived together for a long time.

Susan has been up and down in the industry for more than ten years, and she has long been used to such things, but she still cried out of anger, and when she got emotional, she even disturbed the wound that was still recovering. "As you know, Director Wang and I just had a meal together, and they are clearly spreading rumors! There is also that woman named He, I have already broken off relations with her, so why are you talking nonsense?"

"They don't care what is the truth? The media only needs attention, and the audience only needs to be explosive. Do you think anyone will consider your mood?" Meng San was anxious in the room, "Wait for me to think about what to do, it seems We can't expect Director Wang to recommend that person for us, it's a pity..."

Susan's thin body swayed.

Lin Miao was still comforting Susan, but when she heard Meng San's words "they don't care what is the truth", she felt as if she was struck by lightning.Perhaps at this moment, she was the only one who could empathize with Susan, and her palm-sized face was instantly stained with indescribable sadness, which seemed to be more uncomfortable than Susan, the client.

Meng San raked his hair, looked up and saw Lin Miao standing next to Susan, his eyes flickered, he turned and walked out, and when he came back after a while, he said, "I think so, let's walk in two steps, Xiao Lin and you are in the same shape Almost, let her pretend to be you to distract the paparazzi tomorrow morning, and we will leave quietly."

"No way!" Susan vetoed it right away, regardless of her heartache, "How can Miaomiao beat them and not be eaten by them?"

"What to eat? When they find out that she's not you, they won't chase her anymore. What does it matter?" Meng San disagrees, "Otherwise, what do you think, there must be people guarding people outside the hotel now, you like this What good can you get by going out and confronting them head-on? It will only make them write scribbles. As I said, silence is golden at this time, and we will find a way when we return to China. It’s not that you can’t tell.”

"But..." Susan still hesitated.

"Sister Su, just follow Brother Shan's method. I'm not a paper person, so it's okay to pretend." Lin Miao patted his chest and assured, "Don't look at me like this. I used to act in dramas when I was studying. I deal with paparazzi. It's just a team, don't worry."

Seeing that she agreed without any reluctance, Susan could only agree after hesitation.

The media is only new for a period of time. After passing this level, don't let her know who is harming her!
But when Lin Miao finished her makeup, it was Susan and Meng San's turn to be amazed. I didn't expect her to be very beautifully dressed.Meng San bluntly said that he was wrong, and Susan booed him to sign Lin Miao, which eased the tense atmosphere a lot.

Lin Miao smiled as if nothing had happened, but she was actually very nervous.She knew that she was not the material to be able to deal with people in front of people like this, so she chose to be a behind-the-scenes composer.Although she agreed readily, facing the paparazzi still made her a little at a loss for the unknown.There is no way to do this. Susan was very conflicted. She held Lin Miao's hand and read again and again: "You must be careful yourself, we will wait for you at the airport."

In the early morning of the next day, Susan first went to the restaurant on the first floor to have a meal, and let the paparazzi who couldn't enter the hotel take some photos from the outside, then went to check out, and when she came out, the person was changed to Lin Miao. He wore a hat and sunglasses, followed a few staff members, and looked like Susan at first glance.

Lin Miao was soon blocked by a human wall at the door. The flashing lights never stopped. She kept lowering the brim of her hat and walked out. Several people protected her, but she was still unable to move an inch.Some entertainment journalists began to ask her what she thought of the actress surnamed S as the director of the night party.

She blocked the camera and didn't speak, but felt that it was getting more and more difficult to breathe...

As soon as Chen Jizhen came out of the elevator, he saw the scene at the door from a distance, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked the people around him: "What's going on?"

His assistant Lu Yi thought for a while and replied: "It should be because of this news." He showed the tablet to the boss, "Miss Susan also lives in this hotel, and I wanted to meet you before."

Chen Jizhen touched the diamond cufflinks, with a half-smiling but indifferent indifference: "When will my whereabouts be known to everyone..."

Cold sweat broke out on Lu Yi's forehead: "This..."

"Okay, let's go." Chen Jizhen's eyes darkened, and the subordinates around him didn't dare to show their anger.Just when they walked to the door and were about to get in the car, there seemed to be a sudden push and shoving at Yuji, with constant scolding, and someone fell to the ground. Chen Jizhen was indifferent to all this, but he still looked up.It might take time for others to identify, but he saw at a glance that the person pushed to the ground was Lin Miao.She was accused and scolded by people around, she was powerless to fight back, and her face was very ugly.Why does she look so pitiful every time I see her?

He didn't move a step, but he ordered in his mouth: "Find a way to take her away."

"Ah?" Lu Yi boasted that he was capable, but he still couldn't get the boss's impromptu idea in time.

"Her." Chen Jizhen pointed at the crowd, didn't want to say more, just got into the car and drove away.

Lu Yi came back to his senses, looked at the chaos over there again, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

When Lin Miao's hat was rubbed off, sharp-eyed reporters saw through her disguise, and it wasn't Susan. Experienced reporters knew what was going on. Although it took only about ten minutes, Susan must have left.They waited all morning in the cold wind in exchange for this result, so their temper naturally became bad.

During the jostling, Lin Miao was hit hard on the temple by someone's lens, and her eyes began to glow. The surrounding sounds were buzzing and annoying. She fell to the ground and instinctively put her arms around her shoulders to protect herself, followed Several of her staff were also dispersed.

Lin Miao was dizzy, and it was difficult to stand up several times. Then when her eyes went dark, she didn't know what happened.She fell into a coma for a short period of time, and when she woke up, she found herself lying on the back seat of a strange car, and her colleagues were not around.So she pursed her lips tightly and looked nervously at the layout of the car. It was luxurious, spacious and comfortable. Wouldn't it be too extravagant to use it for bad things?
The man sitting in the co-pilot heard the sound, turned his head and looked at her, as if he was relieved: "Miss Lin, you're finally awake, otherwise I won't be able to explain it. I really underestimated the efforts of those reporters. .”

Lu Yi still can't figure out the relationship between this lady who is said to be called Lin Miao and the boss. It took a lot of time, so I didn't have time to think about it and got her into the car directly.

Finding that Lin Miao was silent, but looking at him warily, Lu Yi raised his hand helplessly: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. First introduce myself, my name is Lu Yi, and I'm Mr. Chen's assistant. He told me to come Helping you get rid of reporters."

"Mr. Chen?" Lin Miao was still a little dizzy when she sat up, and she couldn't connect the matter for a while. After a while, she asked with a pale face, "Chen...is Mr. Chen Jizhen?"

It seems that they are really familiar, Lu Yi nodded, and said intimately: "You will meet him in a while."

Lin Miao didn't know how he met Chen Jiti by such a coincidence, but it seemed that he had helped her. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, and then said to Lu Yi, "Thank you, Mr. Lu. But I want to get out of the car first, we The team members are still waiting for me at the airport, as for Mr. Chen, I will thank him when I return home."

Lu Yi was dumbfounded, how could this make her go?Doesn't it mean that he is incompetent if he didn't bring him here?It stands to reason that most of them are people who want to have a relationship with Mr. Chen. Why is this lady unwilling to meet, no, he must send people.

He smiled politely and said, "There were a lot of people just now, and you passed out and couldn't move. Your colleague has already rushed to the airport." He looked at his watch, "The flight you booked should take off at this time." .”

"How is it possible? All my luggage is with them..." Lin Miao didn't quite believe that Susan and the others would abandon her and leave first.

How is it impossible?With Lu Yi around, he can take the position next to Chen Jizhen, but he is not a vegetarian.

Lu Yi is very eloquent, and he has a lot of reasons: "Don't worry about this, I have sent your luggage back. You still have a head injury. Although it has been treated, it will not be too late if you take a long-distance flight immediately." Not suitable, right?"

He didn't let Lin Miao speak, and continued: "Besides, look outside, we have already left Paris, how can I let you get off here, I will definitely be scolded by Mr. Chen."

Only then did Lin Miao look out the window belatedly. They had indeed left the bustling urban area, and the number of people gradually decreased.

She wrung her hands, her expression was a little cramped, wondering what the purpose of Chen Jiti's actions was?He was in no position to help her.But there was nothing coveted about him, after all, what did Chen Jiti have?
Lin Miao just didn't expect to meet him as far away as Paris, so it can't be fate, can it?She saw that Lu Yi was so tongue-in-cheek, it would be difficult for her to get out of the car, so she didn't even bother to ask where she was going.The rhetoric that Lu Yi had prepared was useless.It's just that Lin Miao didn't expect that they would take her to the middle of France all at once. Later, she found out that this city has the reputation of "Queen of Hot Springs" and was once known as the second Paris.

Although it is not as prosperous as Paris, it is full of tourists and very lively.After a fight with Yuji, Lin Miao was actually very tired at this time, and the injured area was rubbed with medicine, but it still hurts intermittently. Susan and the others are probably on the plane, and they can't be contacted now, so she can only call cheer up.

The car quickly drove into a holiday villa, and Lu Yi got out of the car and opened the door for her: "Please go in, Mr. Chen should be inside."

Chen Jizhen was standing on the half-moon-shaped balcony on the second floor talking on the phone when he saw a car coming in, and then Lin Miao got out of the car.He kept looking at her, as if he could focus on two things, and continued to talk with the other party on the phone.Lin Miao seemed to be pinned, she didn't enter the door immediately, but stood outside for a while, as if she had to come in after Lu Yi said something.

Chen Jizhen pursed his lips expressionlessly, and after finishing the phone call, he turned back to the computer to process two urgent emails, but still didn't intend to go downstairs.It wasn't until Lu Yi came up to knock on the door to ask for instructions that Chen Jizhen went downstairs slowly. Seeing Lin Miao who was sitting up suddenly stood up, he first looked at him, and then quickly lowered his eyes.

Her complexion was very fair, and the light coming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows made the redness and swelling on her forehead more obvious.

"If you were asked to pick someone up, how could you still be injured?"

As soon as Lu Yi heard the boss's tone, his scalp became numb, and he quickly explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, not daring to refute a word. In fact, Lin Miao had already been injured when he rushed over to help.

Lin Miao also immediately said: "Mr. Lu has helped a lot, I am very grateful." Seeing Chen Jizhen looking at her directly, she had to add, "Thank you too."

Lu Yi said knowingly: "This is what I should do." Then he said to Chen Jizhen, "Mr. Chen, I want to see if Miss Lin's luggage has arrived. Do you have any other orders?"

Chen Jizhen tapped on the handrail of the spiral staircase, thought for a while and said, "Please ask Dr. Joseph to come over later."

Lu Yi understood, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away, so I won't disturb you for now."

As soon as Lu Yi left, it seemed that even the air was still.Lin Miao held her breath and looked at the geometric pattern floor under her feet, as if she didn't know how to face Chen Jizhen.And Chen Jizhen was also looking at her, she didn't even dare to look him in the eye, is he so scary?According to his relationship with her and his standpoint, he didn't do anything excessive to her, and even... made an exception for her, and this time it's the same, he can completely stand on the sidelines.

Thinking of this, he frowned, and suddenly lost interest.

Lin Miao lowered her eyes, even if she didn't raise her head, she could still know that Chen Jiti's eyes were on her, which was more painful than the pain on her forehead.Then she heard his steady footsteps, from far to near, step by step as if stepping heavily on her heart.

"Why don't you talk?" Chen Jiti stood on the ground like her, still looking down at her from a high position.

Lin Miao smiled wryly, what else could she say to him?She could only maliciously think that his generosity at the previous moment was only for embarrassing her at this moment, so that he could balance his mind, right?

She took a deep breath, looked up at him with all her strength, and opened her dry lips slightly: "Thank you for helping me, I will find a way to leave as soon as possible, and I won't cause you any more trouble."

"Thank me? Ms. Lin Miao, is this how you usually thank people? Why does it look like a big punishment?" Chen Jizhen looked at her indifferently, and his tone became cold, "Is that how you talk to Gu Huai too?"

He suddenly mentioned Gu Huai, causing Lin Miao's face to turn pale. She clenched her fists and said word by word, "This is my business." She was weak on the surface, but her inner strength had not been beaten yet. broken.

Many years ago, she lost a bet at her younger sister's birthday party. The punishment was blindfolded hide-and-seek. If she caught someone, she would guess who the punishment was.He came back late that day, and was suddenly thrown on him by this girl, who grabbed him and groped him. The people around him were so nervous that they forgot to remind her, and even dared not breathe. No one dared to treat him like this Pass.She randomly read the names of a few classmates, but got no response, and finally took off the blindfold in frustration, but she saw herself, she suddenly became at a loss and kept saying sorry, her eyes were red with anxiety, like a Rabbit, a weak little rabbit.

Gradually, after several contacts, he developed a good impression of her.
