Chapter 528
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ruowan began to groom and dress, picking suitable clothes in front of the mirror.
Zhang's mother walked in, puzzled, saying: "You're going out?"
Hmm, Director Jiang guesses he's been under a lot of pressure lately, said he wants to go out for a drive, asking if I have time!
Zhang's mother remained silent for a moment, then said: "He has such high achievements, manages such a large company, is still so young, the burden of a thousand jin is on his shoulders—pressure is definitely huge!"
Zhang Ruowan initially thought Jiang Heng saying that was just an excuse to ask her out.
Hearing her mother say that, it really is the case; she immediately said: "Then you say, he, won't he be depressed?"
Zhang's mother said: "That's hard to say; when we see him later, we'll give him more guidance."
Zhang Ruowan nodded, then smiled and said: "You're letting a poor ghost like me give guidance to a billionaire?"
Zhang's mother said: "How can that be called a poor ghost? What you've earned these past few months is more than what your father earns working hard all year! Of course, compared to Director Jiang it's not even close, but our family lives happily!"
Zhang Ruowan nodded: "That's true, being together as a family, happiness is most important!"
Glancing at the alarm clock on the table, Zhang Ruowan said: "Oh no, I'm going to be late!"
Having said that, she picked a white dress, tied her hair in a side ponytail, making her look sweet and cute.
"How does this look?" Zhang Ruowan turned in a circle and asked her mother.
"My little darling is so beautiful, any boy who sees her will like her!"
Zhang Ruowan heard that, pursed her lips, her face full of smile, picked up a small bag and went downstairs first.
After wandering around the neighborhood for a while, she received a call from Jiang Heng.
After stating her location, she soon saw an orange Lamborghini sports car driving over.
The car doors, with a somewhat futuristic design, opened, revealing Jiang Heng's face.
"Get in!"
Upon hearing that, Zhang Ruowan hurriedly got into the car.
After the car drove out of the neighborhood, she said: "This car is so cool, you don't usually drive it, do you?"
Jiang Heng said: "You like it? Then I'll give it to you!"
"Ah!"
Zhang Ruowan was startled, quickly saying she couldn't accept it.
Jiang Heng laughed and said he has several sports cars, actually just for collection, and he hardly drives them even over a year.
Zhang Ruowan knew the situation was true, after all Jiang Heng is a big director and big boss, not a rich second-generation idler; driving such a flashy sports car always feels a bit off-character.
However, the car headed east out of the neighborhood and soon got onto the Jingha Expressway.
Seeing this, Zhang Ruowan was dazed—driving a supercar on the expressway? She didn't know if it costs money, but it's definitely hard on the butt!
After the initial "speed and passion," she now feels as if she's sitting on a wooden horse, her waist sore.
"Where are we heading, exactly?"
"Beidaihe!"
"Ah!"
Zhang Ruowan's voice trembled; although she didn't know the exact distance, she knew it was to the seaside, two or three hundred kilometers at least.
Driving the supercar all the way, she wondered if her waist would give out—"Are we really just going to drive there like this?" the girl said, her voice already tinged with tears.
Jiang Heng saw her reaction and laughed, "Look at you scared, of course not!" but he didn't explain further.
After arriving in Xianghe, Jiang Heng switched to a Mercedes-Benz S600.
The driver then drove the Lamborghini onto a flatbed truck and immediately returned to Jingcheng.
Zhang Ruowan watched the direction the flatbed disappeared, still a bit dazed.
She sighed inwardly, is this the life of the rich, so carefree? The comfort of a Mercedes S-Class is already great, and the car is stocked with lots of snacks. Zhang Ruowan casually opened a bag of snacks, eating while chatting.
"You seem to have something on your mind?"
"A little!"
"Why?"
Jiang Heng didn't answer; how to put it? He felt that everyone who approaches him has only one purpose: to gain resources from him.
This world is just like that! Including the beautiful woman sitting beside him, a phone call summons her, and in the middle of the night she accompanies him on the expressway to the seaside—what does she want, if not resources?
It's just that this time, Liu Yifei and Jing Tian both came to compete for this role, leaving him momentarily unsure how to choose.
Moreover, almost all the female artists in the company came to compete, which indeed made him somewhat irritable.
But these aren't the root cause; the root is that he feels there's nothing left to film.
That feeling is like in the movie "Goodbye Mr. Loser": Xiaoluo can't write a new song, then goes out to sea to party, and runs into the fisherman Yuan Hua… "You say, when a person starts repeating himself, isn't that proof he's starting to go downhill?" Jiang Heng, focused on driving, inexplicably said that line.
Zhang Ruowan had been waiting already; the two going out together to relax and talk about things they normally wouldn't say would surely bring them closer.
In short, look at the flawless version!
"Not exactly; in life, there are ups and downs, peaks and valleys. Even if there are occasional setbacks, as long as the overall direction is fine, it's all good!"
Zhang Ruowan said that and gave a sweet smile.
Jiang Heng laughed and said, "You're right; it seems I'm being obsessive."
Zhang Ruowan smiled and said: "Exactly, who can keep innovating? How many people stick to one trick for a lifetime, constantly repeating themselves?"
"Only a genius like you can continually create new types and still achieve great success? Take Zhou Xingxing—such a talented person, yet he's also made flops, repeated himself, and been told by the media that his talent has run dry. You, you just hold yourself to too high a standard; you can afford to lower it a bit!"
Jiang Heng heard that, laughed, and indeed felt much relieved inside.
Just like many people, even when they already have an idea in mind, they still go ask others for opinions.
Does he really not know how to choose?
No, he just wants to gain some support! "Really didn't expect it, you actually understand quite a bit about life philosophy!"
Upon hearing that, Zhang Ruowan put on a proud, cute expression and said: "Being human, the most important thing is to be happy; once you figure that out, nothing is a problem!"
Jiang Heng listened, burst out laughing, and said that calling her out was truly finding the right person.
Zhang Ruoxi quickly said, if you ever feel unhappy, you can call her to keep you company.
When the two drove to Tangshan, they got off the highway, found a restaurant to eat, then continued toward the seaside.
By the time they arrived, it was past eight in the evening, and there were many tourists on the beach.
Zhang Ruoxi is from Wenzhou, naturally she has seen the sea before, but she still showed a very happy demeanor.
"Oh my, there are so many people! Want to go swimming together in the sea?"
"Hmm, okay then!"
In the Mercedes-Benz car there were pre-prepared swimming gear; Jiang Heng just needed to change into it.
Zhang Ruoxi, meanwhile, bought a set at a nearby stall and changed in the changing room of the bathing area.
Not long after, a beautiful girl in a swimsuit appeared before him.
"How's this?" Zhang Ruoxi said, twirling around.
"Not bad, really not bad!"
"Come on, let's go swimming!"
Having said that, Zhang Ruoxi took Jiang Heng's hand and headed toward the sea.
The seawater at night was a bit chilly; after swimming only a short while, the girl said she was cold.
Jiang Heng pulled her into his arms and said, "Then let's go rest!" (End of chapter)
