The Best Actor’s Courtship: Miss Scriptwriter, Please Love Me! - Chapter 331
Chapter 331 Extra Story— Twelve Years Later, a Parent of Sixteen
Twelve years later.
“Luoluo, come to help me!” Lying face down on her big bed, Murong Niannian complained to her good friend through her mobile phone. She was simply so depressed inside.
Yan Chuluo was Murong Niannian’s best friend, and their friendship was very solid. Although Yan Chuluo was five years older than Murong Niannian, Murong Niannian, a mature girl, did not have any difficulty communicating with her. Their relationship was even more harmonious than those of her peers.
“Well, my dear girl, I’m too busy to attend to you now. I even don’t have any leisure for myself,” replied Yan Chuluo, who was reading the latest military newspaper on a closestool.
Yan Chuluo actually could not attend to her talented friend at the moment because she fell in love with a man. More exactly, she fell in love with him in secret only at one glance.
“Well, you just went to receive military training. By the way, your grandfather is really weird. Why would he give military training to his employees? I would rather die than work in such a company. It is so horrible.” Without thinking, Murong Niannian started to criticize Yan Chuluo’s grandfather. Murong Niannian and Yan Chuluo did not hide any secret from each other, and they didn’t need to be careful when talking to each other, so, Murong Niannian always blurted out whatever she was thinking about.
“Shut up, Murong Niannian, don’t criticize my grandfather in front of me. I’m the only person who could criticize him whatever he did.” While speaking, Yan Chuluo sat up straight and glared forward as if Murong Niannian were in front of her at the moment.
“Alright, alright. Again, you behaved so overbearingly to defend your grandfather. I can’t put up with you anymore. If you can’t find a boyfriend in the future, you can just accompany your grandfather for the rest of your life.” After Murong Niannian said this, a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. Brought up by her grandfather, Yan Chuluo did not allow anyone to criticize him, and to her, he was her god.
“Well, since you mentioned it, I have to tell you that I possibly will have a boyfriend soon.” Speaking of this, Yan Chuluo had a sweet smile on her face, and a handsome figure came into her mind.
“Beg your pardon, what are you talking about, Yan Chuluo? Did you have an affair? How could you have an affair during military training?” Murong Niannian immediately cast her worries behind her back and almost jumped up on the bed upon hearing Yan Chuluo’s words.
“Hey, watch your mouth, dear girl. What do you mean by calling it an affair? It’s not an affair but affection, do you understand?” Yan Chuluo changed the topic and started to make fun of Murong Niannian. “Oh, I see, you’re just a little girl under seventeen, of course, you know nothing about affection.”
Murong Niannian was annoyed by the words and she complained, “Well, I’ll reach seventeen in several months, in fact. Moreover, I’m seventeen already in terms of nominal age. Even though I’m a little younger than you, we don’t look that different, ok?”
What Murong Niannian said was true. Though there was an age gap between them, what they were experiencing was similar, and Murong Niannian started to experience many things even earlier than Yan Chuluo. That’s why Murong Niannian teased Yan Chuluo.
All this was due to her father, who spoiled his wife, and her simple-minded mother. Her mother, Murong Yunxi, was 36 now yet pregnant again, so, she was going to have a baby brother soon. Her father, Gong Yu, claimed that he should stop attending to the business in the company because he had an elderly pregnant wife. As Murong Yunxi thought, Murong Niannian was to through hardship sooner or later, so, she thought it was better for Murong Niannian to experience some hardship sooner than later and handed over the company to her.
Murong Niannian whined for her poor life, but she had no choice since she was the firstborn in the family, and her younger brother, Gong Xi, was only eleven years old. She inherited both her father’s and mother’s wisdom, which made her a talent and even cleverer than her father and mother.
Was it her fate to be tied by businesses at such a young age?
However, when Murong Niannian thought of Yan Chuluo, who worked in the company shortly after graduating from university and was preparing to take Yan’s Group over from her grandfather, Murong Niannian felt much better. After all, her taking charge of her father’s company was temporary, but Yan Chuluo was bound to succeed her grandfather.
What made her cheer in secret was that Yan Chuluo’s grandfather was a stubborn old fogey, who set a rule for his company that each employee had to receive a month of military training before officially becoming one of the company. Yan Chuluo, who was looking for trouble by deciding to work in the company as a junior staff with her name hidden to train herself and gain some experiences, actually accepted the military training.
Thinking of all these, Murong Niannian felt much better. How miserable her life was, she had Yan Chuluo accompany her, but she did not expect Yan Chuluo to fall in love during the training, and it made her curious.
“Hey, tell me about your affair? Did you meet him during the training? Is he your colleague?”
“MU-Rong-Nian-Nian!” Yan Chuluo yelled out the name word by word and continued, “I said it was affection but an affair. I found my true love. My Mr. right appeared in my life.”
“Alright, tell me about your affection then.” Murong Niannian rolled her eyes, and was really curious about the “affair”.
“Well, I fell in love with a man. My heart will beat fast when I see him, and I will miss him to death when he is not around. I want to know everything about him and take every chance to approach him.” While Yan Chuluo spoke this, her beautiful eyes were shining, her mouth corner raised, and there were sweet affection between her eyebrows.
“Tut-tut… I’m so jealous of you. I never thought that you, the young miss of the Yan Family, would behave like any other normal girl when you fell in love.” Murong Niannian could not help but tease Yan Chuluo, but in fact, she felt happy for her. She was very glad to hear that her best friend met her true love, but she then thought of another thing and asked, “By the way, how will you handle the marriage your grandfather arranged for you when you were a child?”
On hearing the question, Yan Chuluo’s smile froze on her face. “Alas, don’t mention it. I don’t know what my grandfather was thinking to arrange a marriage for me, it’s 21st century, isn’t it? Moreover, I won’t take a marriage that was arranged a decade ago seriously. It’s so…”
Yan Chuluo was interrupted by the knock on the door. “Chuluo, are you there? Are you alright? You have stayed in the bathroom for so long, so, the drillmaster told me to find you. He worried that you had an accident.”
“Ah, I got to hang up, Niannian, I’m talking to you in the bathroom. I’ll call you later.” After saying this, Yan Chuluo hung up the phone and shouted toward the door, “I’m fine, just have diarrhea. I’ll come out soon.”
Hearing the busy tone from the other side on the phone, Murong Niannian shook her head helplessly. She put away her phone and got out of the bed.
She went downstairs to the living room, and when she saw Gong Xi, who was about to go out, she asked, “Xiaoxi, where are you going?”
“I’m heading to meet Murong Yu. He made an appointment with me to play squash this afternoon.” Gong Xi had a young and handsome face. Despite he was only eleven years old, he looked much like his father, Gong Yu, as if he were the mini size Gong Yu. Gong Xi was a charming boy, and it seemed that he would be more charming than his father in the future.
“I see. Go back earlier tonight. Grandpa, Uncle Ye, Mommy Xuan, and Uncle Xu will visit us tonight for dinner.” Murong Niannian reminded him. She had doted on her younger brother since he was a child, and she looked more like a mother than a sister to him.
“Got it. You have repeated it more than five times. You’re just a girl of sixteen, why are you chattering without stop like an old grandma?” Gong Xi furrowed his thin eyebrows, which made him look like her father even more. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, “By the way, where have father and mother gone?”
“Well, they went out to watch a movie. Since mother is pregnant, father has spoiled her so much that they look like they just fell in love with each other. They dated so much, I doubted if they are still out patents?” Speaking of her father and mother, Murong Niannian started to complain. They treated her so carelessly that she felt kind of unhappy. At the point, she looked more like a parent rather than a young girl.
“Well, I’m kind of accustomed to it. I got to go now, or Murong Yu will rebuke me for my being late, bye.” Gong Xi rushed out of the door with a gloating expression. He felt so lucky that he had an elder sister to bear all these troublesome things for him.
At the moment, Murong Yunxi, who was watching a movie in a theater, sneezed twice. She murmured, “Who is scolding me?”
Gong Yu reached out to feel Murong Yunxi’s hands nervously and asked, “Do you feel cold? Did you catch a cold due to the air conditioning?”
Murong Yunxi shook her head. The movie was boring, so she lost her interest quickly. She held Gong Yu’s arm and said in a sweet tone, “Honey, let’s go now. The movie was so boring. I want to eat some spicy hot pot.”
Murong Yunxi used to hate spicy food, but her taste had changed since she got pregnant and loved eating spicy food now. Despite Gong Yu thought spicy hot pot unhealthy, he could not convince Murong Yunxi and compromised again and again.
They stood up and left the theater. Just as they walked out of the gate, they saw Lu Yang head inside with a pretty woman, who looked familiar to them. The woman caught Murong Yunxi’s sight quickly.
“Is she…”
