Chapter 526
"A car went in?"
"Looking at that license plate, it seems to be Zhu Yawen's?"
"There's another one..."
Early in the morning, Lin Nan got up early; after all, sleeping alone, it was inevitable to be spirited and excited!
And Liu Yifei and Watching Shu Chang, two thick-lined girls, couldn't sleep in either.
Because Liu Xiaoli dragged both her own daughter and her goddaughter up at seven o'clock.
Outside the villa area, a crowd of media and entertainment reporters were also waiting in battle array, keeping an eye on the entrance and exit of the complex at all times.
Liu Xiaoli was dressed in a very low-key outfit, but without losing dignity and atmosphere.
She carried her bag and stood at the door of Liu Yifei's room:
"Your grandmother and the others and I are leaving first; we still have to receive Director Tian and the others. You two don't be late; you must arrive before eleven o'clock, you know?"
"Got it, Mom, you've said it three times already."
Liu Yifei held a comb and muttered to Liu Xiaoli while turning her head.
"Got it, Godmother."
Watching Shu Chang nodded and replied crisply. Her hands didn't stop; she was braiding her hair.
"Look, Chang Chang is still more sensible than you." Liu Xiaoli nagged with a smile.
"So the goddaughter is dearer than the biological daughter."
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes and took the conversation with a joke.
"You girl! Alright, we're leaving first."
On the other side, Zhu Yawen, Han Jia'nu, and Luo Jin were like Japanese invaders entering a village, actually ransacking Lin Nan's study.
They called it looking for any ready-made film scripts written by the great Lin Dao to occupy a spot in advance.
"Tsk tsk tsk, we're still at home and haven't left yet, and this hot search is already booked? It's all news about Brother Lin Nan and Yifei getting engaged!"
"The bookshelf is full of old script manuscripts. Hmm, there are also sketches of Yifei. There are quite a few, *The Wandering Earth*, *Village Teacher*..."
Zhu Yawen pulled one out carelessly, sat on the sofa nearby, and started reading.
"Don't mess with my things; remember to put them back in their original place."
Lin Nan came out in a casual suit, looked at the bandits in the study, and instructed speechlessly.
"Great Lin Dao's trophies, I haven't seen a single one. It seems that what's rumored outside is true; they've all been collected by Yifei."
"Let's go, go to Yifei's side." Han Jia'nu took over Luo Jin's words and shouted.
Lin Nan was too lazy to pay attention to these three goods, "Why is it just the three of you today? Didn't I say you could bring family members?"
Two days ago, Lin Nan thought the engagement scene wasn't popular enough, so he specially called some friends and acquaintances in the industry.
Of course, he didn't disturb any of those who were in Venice at the moment.
"My wife will go directly to Diaoyutai."
"Don't look at me, I'm single." Han Jia'nu said indifferently.
"That, I don't have a family member."
"Pfft. Just now I saw who you were chatting with on WeChat; it must be quite sweet, right? A silly smile on your face." Zhu Yawen said with a wicked smile.
"Sweet?"
Han Jia'nu was bewildered, and Lin Nan instantly understood:
"Sigh, people's mouths, whatever they say comes true. Old Luo, back then you were still stubborn, calling it rumors, nonsense.
Tsk tsk, I remembered again when Old Zhu got married, how did the bride's wedding shoes get found so quickly? You're really lucky!"
"Haha, you guys are overthinking it. Currently, we're just friends, hmm, just good friends."
Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen looked at each other, "Unhun... currently! Just!"
Han Jia'nu looked left and right, still bewildered.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and go next door to take a look."
Luo Jin changed the subject and walked out; this place was impossible to stay in.
……
The sky-blue cinched long dress worn on Liu Yifei made her look even more cold and ethereal, as if she didn't eat the food of mortals.
Her long hair was pinned up with crystal diamond hairpins, reflecting her incomparably fair and smooth neck.
The bright and atmospheric heavy makeup, dazzling red lips, exquisite golden high heels, and the faintly visible snow-white ankles... made her aura even more aggressive.
And the pink crystal lantern necklace on her neck was like a touch of human embellishment, directly telling Lin Nan that she was still that "Princess Xixi," not yet ascended.
Liu Yifei held her skirt with both hands and walked down step by step from upstairs, swaying, beautiful enough to dazzle the eyes.
"Wow, Yifei, at this moment I finally truly felt what a 'Fairy Sister' is."
Han Jia'nu couldn't help but praise. And Lin Nan had already stepped forward and handed his hand to Miss Liu.
"Thank you for the compliment." Liu Yifei held Lin Nan and smiled sweetly at Han Jia'nu.
"Are we leaving, now?"
Watching Shu Chang asked from behind.
She was wearing loose ripped jeans, stepping on white sneakers, with a white t-shirt on her upper body, and had braided a complex and beautiful braid, looking very youthful and lively.
"It's already ten o'clock, then let's go."
Lin Nan held Liu Yifei's hand and said decisively.
"Alright." Several people said in unison.
Lin Nan drove the G-Wagon, with Liu Yifei and Watching Shu Chang in the back seat. Zhu Yawen, Han Jia'nu, and Luo Jin each drove their own cars.
A group of six, four cars, drove out of the villa area.
Outside, it was a mess in an instant.
"Quick, quick, they're out."
"Look at that license plate, it seems to be Zhu Yawen's?"
"There's another one..."
"Follow closely, let's see if we can sneak in later..."
"The colleagues at the State Guesthouse are really useless!"
……
A group of media reporters hurriedly moved, and twenty or thirty cars followed behind Lin Nan and the others.
At this moment, inside Fangfei Garden, it was also very lively.
In the huge venue, it could be said to be an ocean of flowers and green plants, making everyone feel incomparably comfortable and relaxed.
Watching Watching Lao Lin, Liu Xiaoli, and others were laughing and chatting with Tian Zhuangzhuang;
Tang Yan and Shen Jiani were surrounding Xie Nan, who had a big belly, asking questions;
Wu Jing was holding a deck of cards, sparring with Lu Yang and Guo Fan;
Yue Jun, Jiang Xuerou, Zhang Yi, and Lei Jiayin also had their own topics, and laughter continued.
Outside, friends in the industry invited by Lin Nan came over from time to time; Reba and Liu Yan even took the initiative to act as reception staff...
"Oh, you are here on behalf of Director Ning."
Lei Jiayin turned his head and glanced at Xing Aina, then said with a joke.
"He is in Venice right now, so of course I am here on behalf of both of us."
Inside Fangfei Garden, it was getting livelier and livelier.
Lin Nan and the other five also arrived outside, but the battle array on site really gave them a shock.
They originally thought there were enough reporters outside the villa area, but there were even more here, more than double.
Three men and several security guards protected Liu Yifei, Watching Shu Chang, and Han Jia'nu as they got out of the car and entered Fangfei Garden first.
The camera flashes were flickering, the shutter sounds were constant, and the chatter was very noisy.
"Lin Dao, let a few media outlets in, just consider it as witnessing."
"Lin Dao..."
"Don't squeeze, the equipment is very expensive..."
Lin Nan smiled and shook his head, ignored the many reporters, and then turned to walk inside.
……
"At 11:00 AM, Lin Dao Nan, Liu Yifei, and others arrived outside the State Guesthouse; the engagement banquet will be held today..."
"Liu Yifei stepped on golden high heels, wearing a sky-blue long dress, her temperament was cold and refined, and she walked into Fangfei Garden."
"It is reported that the engagement banquet of Lin Dao and Liu Yifei, except for the elders, relatives, and teachers of both sides, only a very small number of friends in the industry were invited to attend."
Photos taken outside Fangfei Garden had already appeared on Weibo, and Liu Yifei's beautiful figure was the most eye-catching.
Countless people in the industry looked over; Lin Nan, the youngest top director in the industry, had already stepped into the threshold of marriage with one foot.
"It's really beautiful, congratulations to her. I don't know how many artists will need to look at her face in the future, just like when I was almost banned by Director Chen's wife."
When Yang Mi said this, her heart was full of mixed feelings.
She and Zeng Jia had always wanted to become capital in the film and television industry, but capital also had sizes.
Obviously, even if she became capital, it was impossible to be mentioned in the same breath as Lin Nan Film Industry; Lin Dao was one of the top-tier capital in the industry.
And the connections and capital that Lin Nan had, Liu Yifei would have them all; this is a couple, not to mention Liu Yifei seemed to have been capital a long time ago...
"What should we do about this year's annual meeting?"
"What do you mean what should we do?"
"Dividends, should we give cash or..."
Speaking of this issue, Wang Zhongjun had a headache.
This year so far, Huayi's market value had increased by more than 10 billion; it was impossible not to pay dividends.
But if he gave Lin Nan more shares, he would definitely sell them. But if he gave cash, Wang Zhongjun would feel even more heartache.
"Continue to increase shares, no cash!"
Wang Zhongjun gritted his teeth and said; Lin Nan cashing out in the stock market was better than cutting meat directly from the group.
……
"Is the lunch today not to your taste? Why haven't you touched it?"
"I'm not hungry."
Hearing this answer, Lu Zheng was a bit speechless.
Usually such a greedy character, today says she's not hungry? Didn't eat breakfast, and didn't eat lunch either!
Lu Zheng wanted to say something, but held back, "Eat some chocolate; you still have to film in the afternoon. Otherwise, if your physical strength is insufficient, it will delay the crew."
It wasn't until Lu Zheng left the single lounge that rustling sounds came from inside, the sound of clothes rubbing against cheeks.
Slight whimpering sounds, suppressed very low, very low... gradually unable to control herself, sobbing.
Lu Zheng outside the door stood for a while, finally sighed, and walked away helplessly.
…………
Inside Fangfei Garden, it was lively.
Zhou Xun rushed over in a hurry, and complained to Lin Nan, saying why there were still so many reporters outside, she almost didn't squeeze in.
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were thanking Wu Jing and his wife.
"I'm really sorry, seeing that you only have a month left before giving birth, and still letting you come to help us host the engagement banquet."
"Haha, what are you talking about, I'm bringing the one in my belly to get some joy! Besides, I volunteered to Yifei myself; it's only twenty minutes, and I'm sitting while hosting, it doesn't matter."
Xie Nan's emotional intelligence was really not something Wu Jing could compare to; she accepted the compliment without hesitation.
It was about time.
Tian Zhuangzhuang, as Lin Nan's teacher, personally wrote the engagement letter and would witness the engagement ceremony together with Watching Watching Lao Lin as the groom's elders.
The atmosphere in Fangfei Garden instantly became much more solemn.
"Xixi."
Liu Yifei grabbed Lin Nan's hand and smiled at him.
Tian Zhuangzhuang's calligraphy was very good, flying like a dragon and dancing like a phoenix, and it was in classical Chinese.
Everyone gathered around to watch, Lin Nan's name, Liu Yifei's name, the names of the elders on both sides, the names of the witnesses...
"Come on, press your fingerprints; from now on, our fate is set for three lifetimes!"
Tian Zhuangzhuang put down the brush in his hand, looked at his student Lin Nan and Liu Yifei with a full face of smiles, and said with gratification.
Watching Shu Chang, Han Jia'nu, Wu Jing... one by one, the onlookers were all holding their phones, recording videos and taking photos.
"Can we post it on Weibo?" Someone asked in a low voice.
"Hmm, you can."
Liu Yifei's crisp voice sounded, with a trace of excitement and joy.
She then dipped her right finger in the ink pad and pressed it under her name.
Lin Nan did the same; his heart was beating very fast, not because of nervousness, but excitement.
A very formal, very precious engagement letter, this was done.
"Xixi, you're now Lin Nan's fiancée!"
Watching Shu Chang hugged Liu Yifei's arm and shouted excitedly, feeling happier than the two parties involved, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei.
"You really don't remember the pain after the wound heals, calling my name again."
Lin Nan glared at Watching Shu Chang unhappily; the latter hid behind Liu Yifei, signaling Lin Nan to look at Watching Watching Lao Lin's side; she had recognized a new backer these past two days.
"Lin Dao, Yifei, hurry, you still have to serve tea..." Xie Nan urged with a smile.
