Fan Cheng couldn't answer this, he said everything that needed to be said. Nodding, "I understand, President."
He exits the office.
Ji Zhixiu lowered his eyelashes slightly and his eyes fell on the pot of mimosa on the desk. In the pure white wavy flower pot, the mimosa blooms happily.
This is a gift from a little girl, who said that more green plants in the office are good for the eyes.
Used to remind him to remember to relax after work.
Ji Zhixiu picked up the cell phone on the table and dialed Jiang Mian.
After a few sounds, the little girl's soft voice came from the other end, "Axiu."
Ji Zhixiu hummed, "Are you at home?"
Jiang Mian, “Yes, but I have a work schedule later and I have to go to Linhai. I just wanted to tell you about my flight in the afternoon."
Jiang Mian was packing her things at home. Recently, Suoxin reported that Linhai TV had invited their crew to record a program.
The invitation came suddenly, and Jiang Mian started to prepare as soon as he received the news.
Ji Zhixiu put one hand on his forehead and his tone became gentle unconsciously, "Send me a message when you get there."
Jiang Mian nodded subconsciously. After nodding, he realized that the person was invisible again.
She responded with a heavy hum, "I know!"
While bending down, I packed some cosmetic samples and stuffed them into my suitcase.
"By the way, when will I be able to see the finished film of this collaboration with Ji?" she asked.
Ji Zhixiu's eyes dimmed, but his tone did not change, “Mianmian."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"I've already seen it."
"So, are you satisfied?" There was a hint of unnoticeable nervousness in her tone.
Even his movements slowed down.
"I'm satisfied, but I had the extra scenes deleted, and I've asked the department to re-produce them."
Jiang Mian knew what Ji Zhixiu was talking about. He was quiet for two seconds and then responded, "I know, I'm running out of time. I have to pack my luggage."
After that, Jiang Mian hung up the phone.
Ji Zhixiu looked at the hung up phone screen, frowning slightly, feeling a little irritated for no reason.
He pulled at his tie and struck again.
Jiang Mian glanced at the caller ID, pursed her lips, and answered the call without saying a word.
"Mianmian."
Jiang Mian's tone was as usual, "You tell me."
"When are you coming back?"
He wanted to wait for the little girl to come back and have a good talk.
"It shouldn't take long, two or three days." She thought for a while before answering.
"Okay, then wait until you come back."
Linhai is not far from Kyoto, just over two hours by plane.
In addition, the plane was delayed for a while, and the sky was just darkening when Jiang Mian and Li Zhuyi arrived in Linhai.
The two took a taxi to the hotel they had booked early.
Jiang Mian put down his things and spread out on the big bed.
Li Zhuyi said cautiously, “Sister, are you in a bad mood?"
Jiang Mian paused, "Why do you say that?"
"I don't think you're happy."
After spending time with Jiang Mian for a long time, Li Zhuyi knew something about her.
Jiang Mian raised his hand to cover his eyes, not knowing what to say.
"Are you having trouble with Mr. Ji?"
"No."
She was just plain unhappy.
Scenes were deleted without even seeing the finished film.
She took a long time to shoot, and the director seemed very satisfied.
Only Ji Zhixiu...was not satisfied.
Jiang Mian sat up from the bed and looked at her seriously, "He deleted a scene from the commercial."
"What shot?"
"The one the director asked for extra filming."
Li Zhuyi knew which one she was talking about, after all, she was with him the whole time that day.
Wen Yan dragged a chair over and sat down across it. The two faced each other and analyzed, “Sister, Mr. Ji must be jealous. He doesn't want others to see this kind of scene."
As a woman, she was shamefully moved by Sister Mian's beauty. Let alone others.
"But this is just work." Jiang Mian frowned. She has always been soft-spoken rather than tough-minded.
He decides everything with one sentence, although he has the right.
"Forget it," Jiang Mian pouted, relaxed his shoulders, and muttered in a low voice, "This is my Party A's father."
Li Zhuyi was amused by her, "If you are unhappy, just talk to Mr. Ji and discuss it."
"Don't tell me." She said simply.
"Then it's okay for you to be angry alone."
"I'm not angry." Jiang Mian denied. He couldn't talk about being angry, nor was he happy.
Seeing that she was not very interested, Li Zhuyi took out his mobile phone and searched, "Let's go out for a walk, sister. Linhai cuisine is very famous. I checked and found that the hotel I booked is not only close to the TV station, but also there are two universities nearby. The city has a food street. It looks like there’s a lot to eat!”
Jiang Mian has never had trouble with eating. Airplane food is really terrible.
She stood up, "Get ready to go."
The climate near the sea is cool, which is exactly the opposite of the season in Kyoto.
Jiang Mian changed into a cream-white baby-collar dress and a knitted vest. She looked sweet and cute, and carried a small bag of the same color.
The two people put on masks and took a taxi downstairs of the hotel.
Driver, “Where are you two going?"
Jiang Mian, “Linhai University Town."
"You also went to the night market," the driver glanced at her in the rearview mirror, turned the steering wheel, and muttered inwardly, "Why does the little girl look familiar?"
He's so good, and he's still wearing a mask.
He suddenly had an idea, "You're not a star, are you?"
Jiang Mian, “Why do you say that?"
"We are near the sea, and celebrities often come to record programs. This hotel is close to the TV station, and many celebrities live here."
The driver opened the storage box and showed it to them, with a proud tone, "I have several autographed photos of big stars. I'm lucky, they all asked me to zip them up."
"Little girl, what's your name? Maybe I've watched your TV series?" The driver had already determined that this must be the star of a program that came to Hailu.
Jiang Mian smiled and said, "Really? I have a hit drama recently called The Legend of Locked Heart. Big brother can support it."
"The Legend of Lock Heart, I know this! My wife is so cute watching this." He took advantage of the red light to turn around and take a look.
Jiang Mian simply took off his mask.
"Oh, you're the one! Le Bin! My wife said you did a great job! You look great together with Chang Min." He patted his head.
If he could recognize it, it was thanks to his wife whispering it in his ears every day.
Jiang Mian smiled cutely, "Thank you for your support, brother and family."
When getting off the bus, Li Zhuyi gave the prepared signed photo to the driver.
The driver kept asking them not to pay for the ride, but Jiang Mian quickly scanned the QR code and paid.
The driver was so happy that he couldn't help but say, "Thank you so much!"
My wife will definitely be very happy to take it back to her.
Linhai University Town.
Li Zhuyi stood still and sighed, "To say it's a food street is putting it mildly, it's just like a food court."
Jiang Mian only saw a lot of people.
The two blended into the crowd.
Li Zhuyi followed her closely and looked around, "Sister! This, this, this! Pineapple beer!"
“Charcoal grilled lamb kebabs!”
“Roasted sweet potato skin!”
Jiang Mian squeezed in and said, "Two portions, please."
Li Zhuyi couldn't help but laugh and said, “If Sister Ning knew that I brought you to eat these junk foods, she would definitely scold me."
Jiang Mian's eyebrows arched, "It's okay, I usually eat less."
This reminded her of how she was like this when she was in school, running outside with her roommates when she had free time.
Not only must she eat, but she must also take pictures so that she can have something to post on Weibo.
Because of the spread of the lock heart rumor, Jiang Mian has become a lot more diligent in his daily life recently.
This caused fans to call him Modo Modo.
"Is this Jiang Mian? Can we take a photo with her?" A young couple came up to say hello to her.
Jiang Mian was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Okay!"
The boy stood farther away and took pictures of the two of them.
Jiang Mian then realized that she had forgotten to put her mask back on after taking it off in the car. No wonder she would be recognized.
The girl was probably a college student nearby. She was very shy and noticed the snacks in the hands of Jiang Mian and Li Zhuyi.
He whispered, “There is a store here with delicious food. Do you want to try it? Don't worry, I am your fan! I remember you like to eat lotus root balls."
Jiang Mian nodded. She did like it and posted it on Weibo.
"Okay," she agreed.
"Come on recording tomorrow!" As a fan, we are all aware of Jiang Mian's work schedule.
It was an unexpected surprise to meet her here.
The fan was very measured. She took Jiang Mian to a place and went out to the night market with her boyfriend.
The two of them sat down to rest and ordered two portions of lotus root dumplings.
Jiang Mian took out her phone and discovered that Ye Yi had sent her a message half an hour ago, asking where she was.
Jiang Mian: [Where else could I be but in Linhai. 】
Ye Yi: [I asked for the specific location]
Jiang Mian: [The university town of Linhai University. 】
Ye Yi: [Wait for me right away]
Jiang Mian frowned. There were so many people here, so much so that when she just bought snacks, there was basically a long queue.
I accidentally got separated from Li Zhuyi once, to the extent that if I didn't pay attention, I wouldn't be able to see him.
She didn't even know how Yeyi was going to find her in this vast crowd of unfamiliar people.
She called back, but no one answered.
Jiang Mian waited absentmindedly in the store.
Then, she suddenly realized that she didn't say anything to Ji Zhixiu when she got off the plane.
As for Ji Zhixiu, he hasn't sent her a message yet.
She stared at the session window for a long moment.
The dialogue window between the two was still two days ago.
Jiang Mian: [Are you coming back for dinner tonight?]
Xiu: [Go back, wait for me. 】
She exits the interface.
He called Yeyi again, and this time he answered quickly.
Jiang Mian, “Where are you? I'm going to find you. There are many people here."
"How much is a lot?"
"Don't be poor, tell me where you are and I'll find you."
Jiang Mian's voice grew louder, obviously unhappy.
She didn't want to waste time here, not to mention there was so much food.
When it cools down, it loses its flavor.
Yeyi chuckled softly, not impatiently, "Do you believe it or not, I can find you?"
"How did you find me? Do you know how many people are here?" She stood up from the chair, this time she was really angry.
Qi Nightwing's attitude doesn't matter the occasion.
She might not recognize this road even if she went back the way she came, not to mention she only told Ye Yi that she was in University Town, not which store.
How could he find her?
Nightwing slowly exhaled, with a smile on his lips. The voice was exceptionally clear in the night, extremely natural, and extremely serious, “I can appear as long as you want."
"Okay, I want you to show up now, so show up!"
After the words came out of her mouth, Jiang Mian realized that she was really stunned by Ye Yi's anger.
Her original intention was just that she didn't want the two of them to miss each other and find no one here. She didn't want to quarrel.
The phone was silent for a few seconds before Jiang Mian said, "No..."
"Look back." Yeyi raised his lips, interrupting what she had not finished. The smile was evil and contented, and the eyes were astonishingly bright.
The word "turn back" hit Jiang Mian's ears clearly and forcefully.
She turned her head in confusion.
This is a private dessert and snack shop.
Behind the transparent glass windows is a night market with people coming and going.
She saw Nightwing standing on the steps at a glance.
Behind them are people coming and going, young couples being the most common ones.
The two people were either whispering or feeding each other intimately.
But Jiang Mian didn't see or hear anything.
She only saw Nightwing.
He was wearing a very simple, ordinary short-sleeved black letter top. On this day, he looked out of place with others. He wore a chain of bones around his neck.
One hand was behind his back, and the other was holding the phone to his ear.
His expression was a bit rogue and scoundrel, and a bit proud of himself waiting to be praised.
The eyebrows were raised slightly, and the smile in his eyes was bright, even brighter than the lights.
Then Jiang Mian saw him say something to the phone.
This sentence was clearly transmitted to her ears through the mobile phone.
He said, "You are so happy to see me that you are speechless? Come out."
Jiang Mian couldn't help but smile on her lips.
She hung up the phone and walked out. The two stood opposite each other across a step, but their eyes were still level.
She wanted to ask, why are you coming to Laihai too?
I also want to ask, how did you find me?
I also want to ask, aren't you cold in what you wear?
But Yeyi didn't give her a chance. His right hand came out from behind and handed the "surprise" to her eyes, with the words "praise me now" written all over his face.
"Eat it while it's hot."
Jiang Mian lowered his eyes and said, "Roasted chestnuts with sugar!"
Her heart inevitably moved.
Yeyi raised his head proudly, "How is it?"
Jiang Mian also saw this just now, but she gave up because there were too many people in line.
She took the brown paper bag, her palms feeling warm.
Then he raised his eyes, very happy and excited, with shining eyes, "Thank you."
Yeyi raised her lips and responded, and the sound entered her ears along with the cool breeze, "Mianmian."
"Yes." She nodded, not knowing what he asked her to do.
"Tell me, are we destined to be together?"
Otherwise, why, when he went to Shen's house, he saw her and Shen Tingyu pulling their hair.
If you haven't encountered it, you won't pay attention.
If you don't pay attention, you won't like it.
He said he was coming to the sea too, and Ye San scolded him for being too busy.
But Ye Yi knew that he was not idle, he was so busy.
There are endless things to do and endless games to play every day.
When I came to the sea, I just wanted to take a second look at her, without Ji Zhixiu being an eyesore.
How wonderful.
