Chapter 235: no comparison
Chapter 235 No Comparability
After sending his master back to rest, Yuan Mulin got into his car and asked the driver to drive. He hesitated for a moment in the back seat, then took out his mobile phone and dialed his junior sister's number.
The call was quickly connected, and a muffled voice came from the receiver, "Second senior brother, what's wrong?"
“Aren’t you happy yet?”
"No!"
“I asked Master just now. Master has no plans to accept Miss Jiang as his disciple.”
"Really or not, you are not trying to comfort me, are you? Master has never been so kind to me before, and today he even talked to Jiang Lingxi during dinner. I feel like it doesn't matter whether my little apprentice is there or not. "
Facing the second senior brother with whom he usually had the best relationship, Guan Ying couldn't help but vent his grievances.
"Of course it's true. Brother, when have I ever lied to you? After all, Miss Jiang helped win Zhang Linxi. Master should be more polite and enthusiastic to her. But you, in front of outsiders, shouldn't act like a fool in front of Master. temper."
The words ‘you’re welcome’ and the word ‘outsider’ finally made Guan Ying feel more comfortable.
“Okay, okay, I know I’m wrong. I’ll go to the master’s house early tomorrow morning to chat and play chess with him to make him happy. Is that okay?”
“Also, Master admires Miss Jiang very much. When I see Miss Jiang again in the future, I can’t be as arrogant as today and be polite to others.”
Guan Ying responded perfunctorily and hung up the phone quickly.
She can't beat Zhang Linxi in Go, but Jiang Lingxi can do it easily. They are both similar in age, so she really can't treat Jiang Lingxi normally.
"This girl..." Looking at the hung up phone, Yuan Mulin shook his head and smiled bitterly.

In the business car back to the hotel.
Lu Zhengzheng was also talking to Jiang Lingxi about Guanying.
“Sister Xixi, Mr. Shi and his second apprentice, Mr. Yuan, are both very good, but I feel like his younger apprentice is a bit less good at life.”
“When you were playing against Zhang Linxi on stage in the studio, I was sitting next to Guan Ying. She seemed a little unhappy when you beat Zhang Linxi.”
"And when you were eating in the cafeteria, Mr. Shi was talking to you, and Mr. Yuan was listening and would chime in a few words, but she just lowered her head and played with her phone, and looked impatient when she was called. It's so rude. It's really I don’t know how Mr. Shi accepted her as his apprentice!”
Jiang Lingxi couldn't help but laugh when she saw the indignant look on her face, "Do you really think I'm a good person everywhere?"
“No!”
“Old Shi is the only one who has friendship with me,” Jiang Lingxi said softly, “As for Mr. Shi’s two apprentices, don’t worry.”
Even Lu Zhengzheng could see the hostility that Guan Ying had towards her. How could she not feel it?
But she really didn’t care much and was too lazy to care.
Guan Ying's arrogance comes from her talent in Go, but to her, this talent is simply insignificant.
I haven’t even taken it seriously, so why should I care about it?
Looking at Lu Zhengzheng, she still looked a little aggrieved for her, so she had to add, "Guan Ying's character will run into trouble sooner or later."
Coincidentally, Mr. Shi, who had just arrived home, chatted with his old wife before going to bed, and said the same thing as Jiang Lingxi, "Xiaoying, I thought she was very talented in Go at first, and she was still young, and she was still a girl. It was inevitable She’s a little more pampered than other disciples, but today…she’s going to suffer a big loss sooner or later!”
"Why should you worry about something at such an old age? Children will learn to change after they have suffered a loss and learned a lesson."
“I hope so.”

After some enlightenment, Lu Zhengzheng finally stopped getting angry because of Guan Ying's little face.
Jiang Lingxi answered the call from Xu Ling'an.
"Well, we're already on the way. We'll get to the hotel in about half an hour. Get some rest early. Tomorrow the crew will go to Wanchao Street to shoot, so we'll get up earlier than usual." When Jiang Lingxi hung up the phone, Lu Zheng Zheng complained softly at the side: "An An is a few years younger than Guan Ying. He is still the top scorer in the college entrance examination and is being competed by top universities. I don't see An An being proud. I guess Guan Ying doesn't want to hear about Mr. Shi playing chess with you, Sister Xixi. It must be because I’m afraid of losing to you.”
After hearing this, Jiang Lingxi simply said: "Don't compare her with An An."
Lu Zhengzheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded wildly, "I just said the wrong thing. There is really no need to compare her with An An."
Back at the hotel, Lu Zhengzheng put down her bag and went straight to the bathroom, preparing to put water in the bathtub so that Sister Xixi could take a bath to relieve her fatigue. When she walked to the bathtub, she saw that water had already been put in it.
She quickly turned around and went out again, "Sister Xixi, the water in the bathtub..."
Jiang Lingxi picked up a cup of sweet milk, glanced at the note paper pressed under the cup, opened the lid and took a sip, and replied: "An An came here just now, and she put the water in the bathtub. Yeah, I've prepared it for you too. Sweet milk.”
Lu Zhengzheng took a sip of sweet milk: She felt a little more in danger for some reason.
It rained all night in the imperial capital. Jiang Lingxi drank sweet milk and took a comfortable warm bath. She fell into an extremely deep sleep listening to the patter of rain outside the window.
Even if I am woken up by the alarm clock on my mobile phone when it is still dark, I am still full of energy.
“The weather is really nice today.”
“It rained heavily, and it’s finally not as hot as the past few days.”
“It just so happens that these two days are mostly outdoor scenes, so there’s no need to worry about heatstroke.”
Before rushing to Wanchao Street for shooting, you need to do your makeup in advance. When we finished packing and were ready to set off, it happened to be daylight.
A car carrying the crew and machines set off in the morning light.
Jiang Lingxi protected the hair crown on her head, and when she was about to get in the car, she was stopped by He Zhu who was running over.
"Ms. Jiang, our husband is here to invite you." Sensing the glances from all around, he quickly added, "Let's prepare for the show on the way."
Jiang Lingxi turned around and waved to Lu Zhengzheng and Xu Ling'an who were standing behind her, "You two, get in the car. Let's meet at Wanchao Street."
She knew in her heart that there was no need for a scene between her and Shen Yunqing, so she would be invited over because she probably had other things to talk about.
If it involves what Wujue is investigating, then Lu Zhengzheng and Xu Ling'an are not suitable to listen.
Seeing the two of them getting into the car obediently, Jiang Lingxi turned around and followed He Zhu into the RV.
To be precise, she was the only one who entered the car. After He Zhu invited her over, he went around to the cab in front and drove.
The weather is cool, so the air conditioner is not turned on in the RV compartment, but the skylight on the roof is opened. As the vehicle started to move, a gentle breeze blew in through the skylight.
Jiang Lingxi no longer has to protect the hair crown on her head, even if she jumps a few times in the carriage, it will be fine.
On the other hand, after seeing clearly Shen Yunqing's makeup today, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows.
Her makeup today is a white brocade robe, dressed like a rich man, and she wears incognito for a private visit.
Shen Yunqing plays the role of her attendant. Naturally, he no longer wears a purple official robe, but changes into a black and capable bodyguard uniform. But this bodyguard uniform is very different from the bodyguard uniforms worn by extras. After all, it is worn on the male protagonist.
Compared to the official robes and brocade robes with wide robes and long sleeves that show off the elegance, Shen Yunqing was wearing this bodyguard uniform embroidered with black dark patterns to better modify her body shape, which perfectly modified the wide shoulders and narrow waist.
Pair it with that face…
How come she never thought of letting this girl be a personal guard for a period of time in her previous life?
If nothing else, at least it’s eye-catching!
