Movie/TV: How could my sister be Qiao Jingjing?

Page 73

Qiao Jingjing earnestly advised her best friend.

"Stop spouting motivational platitudes..."

Su Jinbei paused for a moment and said, "They want me to retire from the entertainment industry and become a stay-at-home wife and mother. That's ridiculous..."

"They're dreaming if they think I'll give up the career I love."

As Su Jinbei spoke, a cold glint appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Changing the subject, she looked at Qiao Jingjing again, "Besides, Jingjing, aren't you just making the pot calling the kettle black?"

"I really have high standards and can't find a good man, but Jingjing, you don't even have a boyfriend yet. I don't understand."

"It's not like I have low standards."

Qiao Jingjing was momentarily dazed for no apparent reason, and whispered:

"I always feel like I'll regret it if I find a boyfriend in the future."

"regret?"

Su Jinbei was taken aback.

Does it mean she lacks confidence in men?

Are you still afraid of meeting a jerk?

"You'll regret it if you don't go looking for someone. Or maybe you have a fear of relationships?"

"I've only ever heard of marriage phobia."

Qiao Jingjing shook her head: "I'm always a little unwilling, and I can't let go of some things in my heart."

"Aren't you lonely being alone?"

"I'm not lonely, I live with my younger brother."

"This is different, you know what I mean."

"I don't understand, but I'm just happy living with him. I don't have to cook, clean, or do laundry. It's so comfortable."

Qiao Jingjing got more and more excited as she talked, "When I'm unhappy, Ayu will comfort me, and when I'm angry, I take it out on him. I love seeing his face full of resentment but helpless expression."

"You're not a brother-obsessed person, are you?"

"Get lost."

There were no words for a moment.

Qiao Jingjing softly hummed the song "The First Person I Loved".

A melodious and ethereal tune, a beautiful and pleasant sound.

Su Jinbei listened for a while.

I paused the TV series playing on my phone and listened quietly.

After Qiao Jingjing finished singing, she couldn't wait to ask:

"I've heard this song of yours, but it's only available on TikTok, not on my playlist. It's really good. Did your brother really write it?"

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jingjing immediately became proud and chuckled:

"Of course, I'll have that brat write a song for you later."

"Never mind, I'm more suited to traditional Chinese style. Your love and romance stuff doesn't suit me."

"That's true. Qiao Yu has never been exposed to the ancient style genre. He doesn't even watch period dramas... Oh, he doesn't watch dramas at all."

Su Jinbei suddenly realized, "No wonder he didn't recognize me... Speaking of which, I had my glorious past too, you know."

She paused for a moment, then asked, "What about the composer of this song?"

Su Jinbei was very concerned about the music.

She especially liked the style of this song.

Qiao Jingjing blinked her big eyes, "It's Qiao Yu too!"

Su Jinbei was taken aback, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.

Is the same person who also wrote the lyrics and composed the music?

This……

"Your younger brother is a student at an arts school? He's so talented!"

Su Jinbei was half sincere and half flattering.

Unfortunately, the horse's paw landed on its leg. Qiao Jingjing lightly kicked Su Jinbei's pert buttocks with her little feet, and said unhappily:

"What art school student or New Oriental? My brother is a proper liberal arts student."

"It's understandable that someone who studied literature can write such good lyrics, but to be able to compose such a piece of music... why bother studying literature? They should study music."

“I remember you often told me why your younger brother was so weak, how he was criticized by our father, and how you thought he hadn’t even gotten into college.”

"He's definitely weaker than me."

Qiao Jingjing sighed: "He may really have this talent, but it has been buried before."

“You know, my dad is a university literature professor. He chose the major for his son, so you could say he followed in his father’s footsteps.”

Su Jinbei said, "I hate it when elders plan my life and arrange marriages."

Qiao Jingjing was about to nod in agreement when she suddenly sniffed.

She instinctively sat up straight, almost drooling.

"It smells so good, where is this fragrance coming from?"

Su Jinbei sat up and looked around in confusion.

The aroma made her a little hungry.

"Is this your living room? Go out and take a look."

When Qiao Jingjing and Su Jinbei excitedly ran into the living room.

Qiao Yu was sitting at the dining table, enjoying his meal.

In front of him were braised pork hock in a deep reddish-brown color, along with tofu, steamed yellow croaker, and chicken stew with mushrooms, all steaming hot.

The rich aroma of the dishes immediately whetted my appetite.

Qiao Jingjing's first reaction was... Holy crap, my little brother is cheating on me.

"Where did you order takeout? It smells so good!"

Qiao Jingjing's appetite was whetted, and she kicked Qiao Yu's shin, "Is there any more rice? Get me a bowl."

Qiao Yu chewed the food in his mouth.

Not being fond of serving her older sister, she retorted:

"Didn't you eat it?"

"Just go when I tell you to, stop with all the nonsense."

Qiao Jingjing reached out and grabbed a piece of chicken, stuffing it into her mouth.

The tender chicken instantly fills your mouth, stimulating your taste buds.

She squinted her eyes in ecstasy.

Is this chicken stew with mushrooms?

The taste and texture are absolutely amazing.

Was the chicken stew with mushrooms I used to eat fake?

Qiao Yu reluctantly got up and went to the kitchen to serve her rice.

"Qiao Yu, could you get me a bowl too? No, half a bowl will be enough."

Su Jinbei sat down as usual.

However, her upbringing is clearly far superior to Qiao Jingjing's.

Although my eyes were glued to the dishes.

But I controlled myself from imitating Qiao Jingjing.

When Qiao Yu got up to serve the rice.

Qiao Jingjing kept picking up pieces of chicken and eating them one after another.

Su Jinbei slapped her hand away, "Jingjing, you haven't even washed your hands."

Actually, Su Jinbei was mainly worried that she would eat all the food.

Qiao Yu served two bowls of rice.

The three of them sat around the dishes and ate heartily.

Qiao Jingjing's favorite dish is braised chicken with mushrooms, and she wished she could hug it to her side.

In addition, my favorite dish is braised pork hock with pickled cabbage.

The pork hock melts in your mouth, rich but not greasy, tender yet retaining its flavor.

It's a real treat to eat.

"Huchihuchi..."

Qiao Jingjing was sweating from the heat and kept fanning her mouth.

Su Jinbei doesn't like big meals.

But the pickled cabbage is very appetizing.

After taking a bite of pork hock, she couldn't stop eating it.

They ate with lightning speed.

This caused a conflict between him and Qiao Jingjing.

"Jingjing, it's fine if you move the chicken stew with mushrooms closer, but don't take up the pork hock too."
