Chapter 588 The Story of the Wax Figure
Liu Yifei put a lot of thought into Li Chen's birthday party.
In addition to asking Yang Siwei to invite the two friends in the circle.
I also personally called Wang Changtian, Gu Yongkeng, and Cao Guowei, Li Chen's partners.
So when Wang Changtian and Cao Guowei appeared together, Li Chen was a little stunned.
"Why are you two here?" Li Chen stood up and said with a smile. Liu Dehua, Zhang Manyu and others also stood up and looked at the people who entered the door.
Yang Mi glanced at Tang Yan, her eyes twinkling.
Tang Yan understood what it meant instantly.
Both of them had previously speculated that the relationship between the boss and Weibo might be more than just being friends with Director Cao.
"Why, you're not welcome?" Wang Changtian said with a smile, and Liu Yan and Xie Nan, the two treasures of light, stood beside him.
Cao Guowei, who has a calm personality, put it bluntly: "Yifei called me personally."
"At least half of the popularity of Weibo is supported by artists like you and Rong Chen. This is your first birthday party. Should I come?"
Everyone laughed.
"There's nothing wrong with what Sissi said."
"Hmm, I find that Sissi is becoming more and more like a boss."
"Sister Mi, Sister Yan, what are you two talking about?"
"Go, go, go, the little girl is so curious."
Li Chen asked a few people to sit down and said to Wang Changtian: "You must be the one who called Qianqian, right?"
Wang Changtian said: "Nonsense! Do you still need to call Yifei for this kind of thing?"
"Even if Yifei doesn't make this call, I will come even if I know about it."
After a while, Lao Mouzi and his wife, Chen Kexin and his wife, Tian Zhuangzhuang, and Xue Xiaolu appeared in Li Chen's villa one after another.
Lao Mouzi and his wife came together with Tian Zhuangzhuang.
Yang Mi and others quickly stood up: "Teacher Tian, Director Zhang."
"Teacher, Director Zhang, and Ms. Chen, are you here too? Why don't I know anything?" Li Chen glanced at Yang Siwei.
Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "When the boss celebrates his birthday, of course the employees will come to celebrate. I am also an employee."
"Boss, Director Zhang and Director Tian have told me a long time ago that if you celebrate your birthday, you must tell them." Yang Siwei smiled.
Night gradually fell.
The villa is brightly lit.
Deng Ziqi, Zhang Hanyun and Yu Ke showed off their singing voices for several girls on the second floor.
"Oh no, no, no, no, you two have such good voices, I will give in, I will give in"
Deng Chao and Zhu Yawen accompanied Lu Yang, Chen Sicheng and several other men to look for good wine in the wine cellar on the second floor.
This was the first time for Lu Yang to come to Li Chen's villa, and the sight of just a wine cabinet was an eye-opener for him.
There are various kinds of Lafite and Moutai that can be named.
Wine and red wine are placed on the east side of the fan-shaped wine cabinet.
The ones placed on the west side are mainly distilled spirits.
Moutai accounts for 90% of all the white wine in the middle.
"Is this Louis XIII?" Chen Sicheng opened his eyes and looked at the bottle of brandy in the middle of the wine cabinet on the west side.
Deng Chao has been here several times and knows the origin of this bottle of wine.
"Louis Thirteenth Day Rhyme, the boss originally had two bottles. Yifei passed away this year, and Zhu Yawen made a fuss. We drank one bottle, and now this is the only bottle left!"
"On Yifei's birthday, is this what we drank? I thought it was just a better brandy!" Chen Sicheng looked in disbelief.
Zhu Yawen laughed and said: "Director Li said, just drink it. If one bottle is missing, the collection value of the other bottle will be higher."
In the living room on the first floor, Li Chen, Wang Changtian and Cao Guowei were talking about something.
Yang Siwei quietly directed people to transport the "wax figure" from the elevator to the fourth floor from the first floor.
Liu Yan and Xie Nan visited Li Chen's villa.
Through the rotating skylight on the third floor, a cloakroom downstairs comes into view.
"Is that Yifei's cloakroom?"
"Nonsense, besides Yifei, who else could be in Director Li's villa?" Xie Nan rolled his eyes, feeling that Liu Yan's question was quite idiotic.
“It’s so big”
The two of them went downstairs and saw Liu Yifei's cloakroom with their own eyes. Liu Yan looked like a "superior" nymphomaniac: "This is the cloakroom that a woman should have. Why do I feel like I have walked into a luxury store?" .”
Xie Nan didn't say anything, and looked at this cloakroom with envy that was comparable to a luxury store.
Bags, shoes, hats, and clothes are displayed in an orderly manner.
Li Chen's parents and two cousins were teasing little Wu Xia in the nursery, when the door was pushed open.
Liu Yifei and her daughter appeared in front of them like magic.
"My mother? Sissi," Li's mother said with surprise on her face.
"Sister-in-law, aren't you in Los Angeles?"
"Auntie, auntie." Li Chen's two cousins immediately came up and surrounded the sister-in-law affectionately.
"Shh, your brother doesn't know I'm back yet!"
"Huh?"
Li Chen's two cousins, one born in 1988 and one born in 1989, are both studying in universities in Beijing.
My cousin attained enlightenment alone, and their relatives all ascended to heaven with him.
Celebrities that you could only see on TV and the big screen in the past are now like cabbage in the vegetable market. You can see them whenever you want.
As for my cousin being able to marry Liu Yifei as their sister-in-law.
Both of them felt that their cousin had a keen eye.
Why do you say that? Although both of them are outsiders.
But I have never eaten pork and heard pig humming.
Behind the glamor of celebrities may not be glamorous.
Especially for female stars, and they are beautiful female stars. Most love stories can be written into a novel.
But they were 120% satisfied with the sister-in-law in front of them.
When they first met, the three of them were all of the same age. Liu Yifei's words and behavior made Li Chen's two cousins wonder who was born in 1987.
Obviously they are sisters, but why does it feel like my sister-in-law is more like a simple little sister.
In the banquet hall on the first floor, the chef specially invited by Yang Siwei arranged the nine-meter-long bar table neatly.
In the living room, Yang Siwei glanced at her phone, then stood up and walked to her boss and said with a smile: "Boss, it's almost time, we can have a banquet."
Li Chen nodded and smiled at the people present: "Please, everyone?"
Wang Changtian smiled and said: "You are the birthday boy today, so you invite me first."
Everyone in the villa gathered from all floors to the banquet hall on the first floor.
At the banquet table, those closest to Li Chen were naturally the elders Lao Mouzi and Tian Zhuangzhuang.
Yang Mi secretly took a selfie, and Li Chen didn't stop her. He just smiled and said, "You can take a selfie, but you can't post it on Weibo."
"Ah? No, senior."
Before Li Chen responded to Yang Mi, Cao Guowei became unhappy: "You said that, do you mean you don't welcome me, the founder of Weibo?"
Li Chen said with a smile: "I forgot that the leader of Weibo is here, forget it, you can post it, but let Yang Siwei take a look before posting it."
Li Chen doesn't want his family to become a hot topic of searches.
After saying that, Li Chen stood up and held a glass of red wine and said: "Thank you to my parents, parents, and all my relatives and friends for celebrating my birthday today. I have nothing to say. Everyone has a good time eating, drinking, and having fun."
Everyone raised their glasses and thought for a moment.
Yang Siwei smiled and said: "Boss, why don't you thank the lady boss?"
"Most of the relatives and friends present today were invited by her, and the birthday celebration was also strongly requested by her."
"Yes, senior, can't you forget Sissi's contribution just because she is not here?"
"That's right, brother! Be careful that my sister-in-law suddenly appears in front of you to settle accounts with you!"
Everyone laughed. Li Chen quickly surrendered: "Okay, okay, of course I have to thank you. I thanked you on the phone last night. You just don't know."
Speaking of his beloved wife, Li Chen suddenly remembered what Miss Liu said last night.
"By the way, she also said she prepared a gift for me and asked Yang Siwei to give it to me? Where is the gift? Why haven't I seen it until now?"
Yang Siwei smiled and said: "Boss, what are you in a hurry for? We haven't given any gifts yet. Everyone has carefully prepared gifts for you today, and the last one belongs to the boss's wife."
"Yes, boss!"
"I'll come first, I'll come first." Yang Mi stood up first and rushed up with a gift box.
Li Chen sat on the main seat. Yang Mi handed the gift box to Li Chen with both hands and said with a smile: "Senior, I prepared this carefully. I can guarantee that there is only one copy in the world."
"Hurry up and take it apart and see if you like it."
"Sisi said that you have to open all the gifts tonight on the spot. Whoever gives it to you the most will get a reward." Yang Mi said with a sly smile.
Li Chen took Yang Mi's gift and opened it while saying: "There are so many tricks, what are they?"
"You'll know if you take it apart and take a look."
Li Chen opened it and saw that they were all VCDs. When he looked through them again, he was speechless: "Are they all your VCDs?"
"Yes, they are all autographed! There is only one copy in the world!"
Deng Chao and others suddenly couldn't help laughing.
"Mimi, you treat your boss as a bee!"
"Mimi, you want to turn your boss into a bee!"
"Sister Mi."
Liu Dehua and Zhang Manyu came together and laughed softly: "This girl really has some ideas."
"Sending Li Chen a bunch of signed VCDs" Liu Dehua also felt dumbfounded.
Yang Mi did not blush, pointed at Deng Chao and smiled and said: "What, if you are not convinced, you can give it away too!"
Zhu Yawen laughed: "No, we are all fans of Director Li, and we never dare to expect to become Director Li's idol."
"Mimi, you are the one!" Chen Sicheng gave a thumbs up.
Yang Mi finally felt a little embarrassed and quickly changed the topic: "Senior, do you like the gift I gave you?"
Li Chen deliberately made a sullen face: "Mimi, Yang Siwei's reward is nothing special, don't take it seriously."
Li Chen's words made everyone burst into laughter.
Even Liu Yifei, who was hiding in the corner, couldn't help but almost laughed out loud.
Yang Mi was immediately embarrassed: "What! Senior, if you don't like it, just say so. If you like it, tell me next time!"
Yang Mi made a good start, and the next gifts from everyone were really weird.
Everyone knows that Li Chen is rich, so no one shows up in front of Li Chen.
Reba gave her a doll of her boy band.
Deng Chao and Zhu Yawen teased Yang Mi the most fiercely just now.
As a result, what the two of them gave as a gift was actually a VCD signed by both of them.
Finally, everyone had finished delivering.
Li Chen still didn't see the gift from Miss Liu that Li Chen was looking forward to.
"Is it time to take it out now?" Li Chen looked at Yang Siwei with a smile.
"What did Yifei prepare for Li Chen? Do you know, Changtian?" Cao Guowei asked the classmate next to him.
"I don't know. This couple has wild ideas. No one can guess that they are a perfect match." Wang Changtian said with a smile.
Zhang Manyu glanced at Liu Dehua and whispered: "What?"
Liu Dehua smiled and shook his head to express that he didn't know either.
"Boss, don't worry, just close your eyes first." Yang Siwei smiled.
"It's mysterious. The ugly words have come to the forefront. If I don't like it, don't blame me for getting mad!" Li Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, close your eyes first, close your eyes first."
Li Chen closed his eyes, Yang Siwei waved, and the two wax figures that had been prepared were pushed out.
Yang Mi and Tang Yan looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths turned up unconsciously.
Li Chen only heard an exclamation from the crowd and immediately opened his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he was stunned.
I saw two wax figures of Liu Yifei standing in the front and center, and the bright overhead lights illuminated the two wax figures clearly.
Even the expressions on his face are equally lifelike.
A wax figure of Zhao Pan'er in ancient costume wearing a white cloak, full of fairy spirit and lifelike.
The other one is wearing an aqua blue tube top dress with a heart-shaped diamond necklace around her neck that complements her white skin so brightly that it almost makes people unable to open their eyes.
Li Chen couldn't tell whether the diamond necklace was real or fake.
He stood up unconsciously and stepped forward to touch the two wax figures: "Are these the ones in Shanghai and Xiangjiang?"
Yang Siwei had quick eyesight and quick hands, so she quickly grabbed her boss and said with a smile: "That's right, boss, you can only watch from a distance, you can only watch from a distance!"
Everyone stood up, and Zhang Manyu was the first to notice something was wrong.
He whispered in Liu Dehua's ear: "The one on the right, really!"
"What?" Liu Dehua didn't hear clearly.
"I said, the one on the right is a real person!"
"Huh?" Liu Dehua was shocked and immediately took two steps forward to carefully look at the wax figure on the right.
Sure enough, if you look closely, you will see that although both figures are very lifelike, the modern Liu Yifei in the aqua blue tube top skirt on the right is obviously more vivid.
Liu Dehua suddenly realized: "So that's it. This is a big transformation of people. They are really a family, and they all have great imagination."
Li Chen suddenly noticed a familiar scent. He immediately realized it and took a big step forward happily.
He grabbed the Miss Liu on the right and said, "No, you are Miss Liu!"
"Ouch! Be gentle, it hurts me!"
Liu Yifei sighed softly and regained her freedom.
Standing in front of Li Chen, with a smile on his face, he tilted his head and said with a smile: "Happy birthday, Director Li."
"You, you, you" Li Chen smiled, not knowing what to say.
"Are you satisfied with my gift?" Miss Liu asked with a smile.
Everyone at the scene realized it later! Only a few people, including Li Chen's parents, cousin, and Yang Siwei, were not surprised at all.
"I'll go, I'll see a ghost, no, I'll see an immortal!" Zhu Yawen rubbed her eyes, as if she couldn't believe it.
"The boss lady's transformation into a living person is truly top-notch!" Deng Chao sighed.
Li Chen looked at his beloved wife standing in front of him with gentle eyes and a smile hidden in his eyes. He shook his head and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Liu."
"It's not hard, just like it, Li"
Liu Yifei shook her head and smiled. Before she could finish speaking the word "guide", her lips were sealed by someone.
The scene immediately burst into applause, and Yang Mi sighed: "Sure enough, the senior's favorite gift is always from Sissi."
"We fought and fought in vain."
Everyone laughed and tried to coax Yang Mi to wake up.
Chen Ting became jealous next to Lao Mouzi: "Look at Director Li and Yifei, this is called going back and forth."
"It's not like you are an idiot, all you want to do is make movies!"
Lao Mouzi laughed and didn't reply. He didn't know whether he understood his wife's complaint or not.
In the banquet hall, the birthday song sounded.
Liu Xiaoli hugged her grandson, and the three people beside her slowly walked out of the elevator pushing the birthday cake.
Yang Siwei took a photo of Li Chen and Liu Yifei kissing with a camera from a distance.
Behind him is the eye-catching birthday cake, as well as celebrities such as Maggie Cheung and Liu Dehua, as well as all the artists including Rong Chen.
