"It's good to know!"
Xiao Lan looked smug.
However, thinking of what Xia Ye said in his diary before, that he and Xiao Ai, the two female protagonists, are now his, he should be the one who is proud!
That bastard got off too easily!
soon.
Xiaolan's hair had regained its beautiful smoothness. She checked it again, nodded in satisfaction, and there were indeed no flaws on the outside. As for the inside—
Cough!
nothing!
......
Upon entering the hotel.
Xiao Lan didn't dare to get too intimate with Xia Ye.
Those strangers don't matter, the key is my own dad. It's already upsetting enough that my lovely little cabbage has been taken by another man's pig, and for them to show off their love in front of him is just too hurtful!
in the hotel.
Xia Ye and Xiao Lan were only gone for a "mere" hour. The crew's dinner was not yet over, but Mouri Kogoro was already toasting and drinking with the director and several important staff members.
Xiao Lan's face hardened.
I wanted to go up and stop my dad from drinking.
Xia Ye smiled and stopped her.
He whispered words of advice in her ear:
"It's rare for Uncle Mori to be in a good mood. He doesn't have to drive back today, so let him drink. He can just go to sleep after he drinks. Nothing will happen!"
"Okay~"
Xiaolan pouted, listened to her sweetheart's advice, asked Mamegaki Taeko for Okino Yoko's room number, and then pulled Natsume along as they headed upstairs.
On the other side, Kogoro Mouri was already bracing himself for a scolding when he saw Ran come in.
After all, it was his beloved daughter's concern, and although he usually appeared impatient, he was actually quite happy inside.
did not expect--
Xia Ye only said a few words, and Xiao Lan gave up on coming to cause trouble for him. This kid is quite sensible!
Seeing Natsume turn around and look at him, Kogoro Mouri winked and gave him a thumbs up.
A strange, unspoken understanding developed between the "father-in-law and son-in-law."
Chapter 208 Xiaolan: Twin Flowers?
The room on the second floor, by the window.
Yoko Okino was watching TV, resting her chin on her hand.
On the television screen was a drama series starring her former teammate and good friend, Terumi Hoshino.
Hui Mei's character is dressed in a tight black outfit, with a slender and tall figure, a mysterious and elegant temperament, a beautiful but cold face, and indifferent eyes, which can simultaneously arouse men's desire to conquer and women's sense of dependence.
To know.
Back when the Earth Ladies were at their most popular.
The other members of the group have mostly male fans, but Hui Mei has an equal number of male and female fans, and even more female fans!
however--
Now that the Earth Ladies team has disbanded, her own career is doing quite well, but the other sisters are not doing so well.
Yueye Xuexue's acting career is somewhat lackluster, but her modeling career is thriving. Kusano Xun Xiaoxun works as a host on Nichibumi TV, which is also quite good.
Hui Mei is the only one who is focused on her acting career, but she has been in a slump. Even in a TV series with a small production scale, she only plays the third female lead. As for the female lead, she hasn't played one for a long time.
In this case.
Yoko Okino was distressed, but there was nothing she could do.
Although she's incredibly popular now, she's still just an idol star with limited influence. At most, she can introduce Hui Mei to a few directors she's worked with, but that's about it.
Thinking about it.
Xia Ye and Xiao Lan walked in.
The expression on her pretty face instantly became lively.
He chuckled and waved, complaining:
"You two are so slow! I'm getting so bored waiting for you. Come sit down and keep me company!"
"Miss Yoko—"
Xiaolan blushed, realizing why she and Xia Ye had been so slow. To avoid being questioned by Chongye Yangzi, she quickly sat down, glanced at the TV, and changed the subject:
"Wow, isn't that Terumi Hoshino?"
"She's still as beautiful as ever!"
"On behalf of Huimei, I thank you for your compliment—"
Yoko Okino smiled as she looked at Ran's shy expression, and knew what had just happened. However, Ran was a shy girl, so she decided not to tease her. If she wanted to know what had happened, she could ask the one with the thicker skin later!
"Hoshino Terumi?"
The shameless guy also sat down at the table, looking at the aloof actress on TV. He was about to say a few words of praise when he saw that the super beauty played by Hoshino Terumi on TV had been shot in the chest and died in anger.
"Ah this..."
Xia Ye was dumbfounded.
Although Hoshino Terumi's death was also beautiful, with her pretty face and captivating figure, it was too sudden. I was just about to praise her!
"how come?"
Xiaolan also felt a little regretful.
"no way--"
Yoko Okino said helplessly:
"Huimei is only the third female lead in this drama, it's already quite good that she's only gone from the show near the end~"
"The third female lead?"
Xia Ye frowned:
"Given the popularity of your Earth Ladies Team back then, even if the group disbanded, Hoshino Terumi wouldn't be relegated to playing the third female lead in such a low-budget drama, would she?"
"this......"
Yoko Okino hesitated for a moment, then sighed:
"After our group disbanded, Hui-mei focused on acting, but her career never really took off, and—she also offended a certain executive at Nichiuri TV—"
"Nikko TV?"
Xia Ye pondered for a moment, then asked:
"I remember that although the Earth Ladies team disbanded, you guys were still signed to an agency under Nichiuri TV, which is why you often had work opportunities with Nichiuri TV, right?"
"How did you know?"
Yoko Okino was somewhat surprised. Natsume knew about these things?
"Ahem, I've checked!"
Xia Ye coughed lightly, then left the matter aside.
"Oh—~"
Yoko Okino drawled out her words.
A hint of smugness suddenly appeared in her pale blue eyes.
This guy has a conscience; he still cares about my information, which means I still hold some place in his heart!
"That's right, we signed with Nichiri TV when we were in Earth Ladies. The disbandment was our own decision. Actually, we had a good relationship with our agency and no conflicts, so we renewed our contract before it expired."
"What's the deal with that leader?"
Xiao Lan suddenly interjected:
"How did Miss Huimei offend him?"
"Hey!"
Yoko Okino sighed helplessly:
"It's just all that scumbag stuff in the entertainment industry. Anyway, after the incident, Sister Huimei's resources decreased a lot!"
"Nikro TV Station—"
Xia Ye took out her phone, and soon the call was answered. Ayako Suzuki's surprised voice came from the other end:
"Xia Ye, what brings you to call me?"
"I need Miss Ayako's help!"
Xia Ye got straight to the point, her words tinged with a hint of teasing.
"You!"
Ayako Suzuki's words carried a hint of reproach:
"Just say what you need. Don't be so formal with all this asking for favors!"
Ok?
Something is wrong!
Ran's eyes suddenly sharpened!
Ayako is acting very strange!
This natural and casual way of speaking clearly indicates that Ayako and Natsume have a very close relationship.
When did this happen?
If Sonoko is added to the mix, wouldn't that scoundrel Natsume be trying to have both sisters?
"Is such that--"
Xia Ye didn't stand on ceremony with Lingzi.
I told her directly about Hoshino Terumi.
"Hoshino Terumi?"
Ayako Suzuki paused briefly, then smiled and said:
"So, Ms. Yoko is next to you, right?"
"Ah, I'm here, Ms. Ayako, hello!"
Yoko Okino quickly sat up straight and greeted Ayako. This was the real heiress of Japan's number one conglomerate, a top-tier figure for a small idol.
"Miss Yoko, you don't need to be so polite. We're all family here, just call me Ayako!"
Ayako Suzuki spoke in a friendly tone, her voice gentle and unhurried, perfectly matching the temperament of an elegant young lady.
However, the meaning behind her words made Yoko and Ran exchange a glance and understand everything.
own people?
So, this young lady is also a log holder?
Xiaolan was now even more certain of her earlier guess!
Sisters!
hum!
I wonder if Sonoko has noticed?
