Chapter 295: The Daughter of a Noble Family Tells Stories
Dou Jie took a sip of wine, then took a puff of the cigarette stuck in her long and thin mouthpiece, and then said to everyone: "When I was studying abroad in college, I had a boyfriend. I said it directly!"
"It's just a one night stand, a one night stand!
Gu Jialan was surprised when she heard Dou Jie’s opening remarks like this...
He Ling, a very popular actress in the early years, handed her a glass of red wine and said, "Your Aunt Dou speaks so directly and interestingly. We like to listen to her talk, just as if she were telling a story. Just treat it as a story!"
Gu Jialan quickly stood up and took the wine glass. He Ling was extraordinary. Her husband, Shen Peng, was now the director of the secretariat of an important figure in a certain department. Although his position was low, he had enormous power.
"Sister He, how can I let you pour the wine? Let me do it!" Gu Jialan quickly took the bottle of wine and poured a little for everyone in the room, including Dou Jie and others.
When everyone saw that this popular actress, who was also a girl with a particularly good business sense, was so perceptive, they immediately developed a good impression of Gu Jialan!
Dou Jie raised her chin and said, "Stop busying yourself. Just treat this place like your own home. I'm telling you stories!"
Gu Jialan smiled slightly, nodded, sat down quietly, and looked sideways at Dou Jie.
Dou Jie continued: "We just talked about foreign men, now let's talk about Chinese men."
"Chinese men are different, let me tell you! We have to talk about it!"
When Dou Jie said this, she had a speechless expression on her face, which made all the women in the room laugh.
"That love process is so damn long!"
“First we have to talk about philosophy, then art, from the East to the West!”
"You get the feeling that this guy really wants to get to know you. He doesn't want to sleep with you!"
"Very indirect and circuitous."
At this point, Dou Jie only said that it was a Chinese man, but did not specify the individual.
But everyone was holding back their laughter, as if they knew everything.
Who are you talking about?
The king sang loudly.
Everyone in the circle knows that these two have a relationship!
Dou Jie then continued: "So one night, he came to our house, and when he came back, he started talking about everything from the French Revolution to the bourgeoisie to Philosophy of Falkland and all that. We finished talking, and it was already three o'clock in the morning, and we still hadn't talked about sex!"
He Ling, who was beside Gu Jialan, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Everyone around him folded their arms and laughed.
Gu Jialan was careless in controlling his facial expression for a moment and smiled.
"How did you end up with sex?"
"It's because their dormitory is locked and we can't go back. We have to find a place to stay overnight."
"Haha!" Everyone laughed again.
Dou Jie held the cup and said, "Then I especially admire the subtlety of our Chinese artists."
"Basically, by the end, it was like I was forcing him to stay here."
"People are trying hard to keep him here because they are afraid that our family will think he is an indecent man. It's three o'clock."
"At a quarter past three, we talked about Russian movies again! Then we said, maybe, we can stay here! But we don't know which room is more suitable."
Dou Jie's serious expression as she spoke made Gu Jialan almost laugh to the point of hurting herself.
But then, every word she said was funny and sarcastic, and the women in the room laughed so hard that they couldn't sit still.
"Then we talked about American literature for a while. It was already half past three. They said, "You can stay. Of course, thank you very much, but it's better to walk back."
"At this point, I stopped and talked a little more about the origins of the South American stream of consciousness. It's a quarter to five!"
"They said it's 3:45, so we have to stay anyway, so let's just stay!"
"It was only at this point that we talked about the Japanese Edo novelists Santo Toden, Kyokutei Bakin, and their lovers."
"It's only now that I feel a little sexual."
"But by that time, I'll be as sleepy as a grandson!"
He Ling interrupted and said, "I'm going to make you dizzy with all this talking!"
"I fainted a long time ago. I was talking so much that I thought..." Dou Jie smiled, "Let's go to bed quickly. I don't care. You can sleep on the sofa or on the floor. Let's sleep because I have to go to work tomorrow morning!"
"It's only now that we're really talking about, if I stay, will we have that kind of relationship?"
Before the conversation began, the woman in the cheongsam said disdainfully: "I said he was fake!"
Dou Jie took a sip of wine and continued, "To put it in English, the charm of Chinese men is to mind fuck you first, completely screw your brain, and then talk about sex."
"Because you have no brains, you can do whatever you want in bed." "Four o'clock in the morning..."
Also, all the women in the room burst into laughter.
Dou Jie looked up, as if recalling: "I only got into the topic at four in the morning! Before six, I was already on the bus!"
"Hahahahaha!"
"Ha ha!"
Gu Jialan couldn't hold back any longer and laughed so hard that he fell over.
"What are you getting on the bus for? To the park!"
"He said he wanted to take me to familiarize myself with the environment of my motherland, and asked me, how many years have you not taken a bus?"
"Oh, when I heard that, I was really touched. Yes, why didn't I think of this?"
"Returning to the motherland and getting in touch with the people, isn't that just going among the masses?"
"The sun is rising, my new lover and I are sitting on the bus, holding hands, being with the people. Isn't that the meaning of returning to China?"
"When we got to the park, there were old men and women walking their birds and practicing Tai Chi. Suddenly, we were standing on the top of a hill!"
"Ah! I'm back!"
The cheongsam woman laughed and said, "They are just treating you like a bird!"
"Hahaha!" The women burst into laughter again!
But Dou Jie didn't laugh, and changed the subject: "Later I found out that after the man had sex with his new lover for the first time, he would take them to the park!"
"Hahaha!"
"What kind of quirk is this?"
"I told you this guy is a frivolous person, not a serious person!"
When Dou Jie talked about this, Gu Jialan didn't know how much of it was true and how much of it was false.
Maybe it's all true.
However, being able to make something sound so interesting does require some skill.
Especially with her intonation, if these words were said by someone else, they would not sound nice at all, and might even sound a bit vulgar.
After all, there are many words in the conversation that traditional women would not say.
But Dou Jie's speech really has the tone of a novel, with rich emotions and passion, which immediately makes people feel the hypocrisy and affectation of some people.
After all, he comes from a wealthy family and a scholarly family.
Having said that, Dou Jie finally pointed out the purpose of telling this story.
"I never told anyone about this in the early years. It's embarrassing to talk about it!"
"I couldn't think straight at that time. What kind of person is this?"
Everyone knew that Dou Jie was probably talking about her divorce from a scumbag.
"Wu Mei, you all know her, right? She was always with me during that time!"
"She advised me that there are all kinds of people these days. You are lucky that you can find out what kind of person he is at your age and get a divorce! Otherwise, you will suffer a lot when you are old!"
"Sister Mei, I haven't seen her for a few years! What is she doing now?"
"I heard she got married!"
Dou Jie then said, "She married Shen Biao, the screenwriter who was very famous a few years ago. Do you know him?"
"Shen Biao! I know him. Isn't his elder brother Shen Hao?"
"Shen Biao? Isn't his son Shen Lang very popular now?"
Dou Jie pointed at Gu Jialan and said, "Look, she is Shen Lang's wife!"
"what!"
"Ouch! Jia Lan, you are having an affair with Shen Lang!"
"Hahaha, this is so funny. Ni Yan, can you please control your words a little? This is Jia Lan's first time here, don't be scared!"
"Come on, her husband has played so many villains. If she didn't have the mental endurance, she would have been unable to live like this long ago."
Gu Jialan blushed and wanted to explain, but everyone was talking at the same time, so she didn't even have a chance to speak!
