That Chu Shanshan was also an acquaintance. She often had nothing to say and wanted to build a relationship with Li Wei, although Li Wei couldn't understand what she wanted to do.
After some exercise, time passed quickly. Soon Li Wei felt empty and hungry. She put on her straw hat and prepared to go back to the hotel for dinner.
Chu Shanshan invited her: "Let's play together again in the afternoon."
Maybe she was the only woman in the crew she was traveling with, so she deliberately wanted to win over Li Wei. Li Wei didn't refuse, nodded and said, "I want to take a nap, let's talk about it after the nap."
Chu Shanshan smiled and said, "Okay, tell me your room number, and I'll call you then."
"You just come to me on the beach."
But Chu Shanshan had sharp eyes, and she saw clearly the number of the room card that Li Wei put in his bag.
Li Wei put on her sun protection shirt and prepared to go back, but she didn't go over to say hello to Zhao Qian.
The meeting here had been going on all morning and finally ended. Li Wei met Li Jianbo in the lobby. Li Jianbo saw her face turned red and smiled: "Are you having fun?"
Li Wei pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It's not bad." The salt in the sea water dried up on her skin and made her very uncomfortable. She wanted to take a shower.
After taking a shower and changing into dry clothes, Li Wei had lunch with Li Jianbo in the room. Li Wei said he was going to bed. Li Jianbo had to attend a meeting in the afternoon, so he went back to his room to take a nap.
Li Wei had just laid down and fell asleep when the phone suddenly rang, and she reached for it.
"Hey, who is it?"
"It's me. I want to treat you to afternoon tea. I wonder if you would like to give me a favor?"
The words on the phone were sincere and the attitude was respectful.
Li Wei said lazily: "I want to sleep, no date."
Seeing that Li Wei refused to agree, Zhao Qian had no choice but to hang up the phone angrily.
Seeing the disappointed look on Zhao Qian's face, Chu Shanshan gave him some advice: "I saw her room number. It's No. 1706 on the floor above us. You can go directly to her door to find her."
"Forget it, why should I ask for trouble?"
From Daqi to here, he and Li Wei crossed life and death, crossed the torrent of history, and met again. However, the distance between him and her still did not advance one foot.
Before, she was the high-ranking queen mother, and he was her courtier. All he could do was to be loyal to her and protect the dynasty for her and the little emperor.
Hundreds of years have passed since the dynasty fell. He is no longer the regent, and she has a new face and a new identity. However, the distance between them has never shortened.
The scene of playing ball on the beach just now replayed in his mind like a movie. He never knew that her smile could be so bright, just like when she was eleven years old, he went to Shangshu Mansion as a guest, and the relationship between them first encounter.
Song Youbin lay down to sleep and saw that Chu Shanshan was still staying in the room and refused to leave. He started to chase people away: "If you two have anything to do, go to other rooms. Don't disturb my sleep."
Chu Shanshan kicked Song Youbin's quilt and cursed, "Let's see if you sleep or not!"
Then Chu Shanshan pulled Zhao Qian out. She opened the door of her room and asked Zhao Qian to come in and sit for a while. Zhao Qian refused her kindness: "Forget it, being seen becomes news again."
"Then go find her upstairs." Chu Shanshan slammed the door.
Zhao Qian wandered to the elevator entrance and pressed the up and down arrows. He hesitated and pressed down.
Li Wei dreamed about what happened when she was a child. She was still in the Shangshu Mansion, following her sisters in mischief. There was a trace of reluctance when I woke up.
After catching up on her sleep, her body became alive again. She walked to the window. The sun was no longer that high. She stretched her arms and yawned.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. Li Wei walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?" A female voice came from the other side of the door and replied, "It's me."
Li Wei opened the door and saw Chu Shanshan standing outside.
"Why did Miss Chu come to the door?" Li Wei did not let Chu Shanshan go into the room to sit down. Chu Shanshan leaned against the door and said delicately: "We agreed to play together in the afternoon, but we haven't seen Li Wei for a long time. The lady came down, so I had to come and invite her."
Chu Shanshan's excessive enthusiasm made Li Wei feel at a loss, so Li Wei had to say: "I just got up, please wait for me for a moment." After speaking, Li Wei closed the door again, leaving Chu Shanshan outside.
Ten minutes later, Li Wei appeared in front of Chu Shanshan again. Chu Shanshan saw that she had changed into a blue and white sportswear, and she looked very energetic. The broken hair around her ears was pinned with clips, and she wore a pair of white sneakers on her feet, looking like a college student.
"OK, let's go." Chu Shanshan walked in front, and she pressed the elevator button for Li Wei.
Chu Shanshan brought Li Wei out. When he got there, Li Wei saw that four people had arrived early, and two of them had already boarded a boat.
Chu Shanshan said: "We are going to go on a night outing, let's go together."
"I..." Li Wei was afraid that Li Jianbo would be worried, so he waved his hands and said, "I'm not going, you can go."
Zhao Qian put his hands in his trouser pockets, but he did not persuade Li Wei. Chu Shanshan was negotiating with Li Wei throughout the whole process.
In the end, Li Wei was taken aboard by Chu Shanshan, and four people rowed in front and behind. At this time, the sun sets in the west, dyeing the sea water red, as if you are in a painting.
Li Wei hasn't spoken much since he got on the boat.
At this time, Director Zhuang suddenly sent an invitation to Li Wei: "I see that Miss Li has a good temperament. There is a role that suits Miss Li very well. Would Miss Li be willing to consider it?"
Li Wei suddenly understood that it was not Chu Shanshan's intention to pull her on board, nor was it Zhao Qian's intention, but the director
Li Wei was vaguely impressed by the director surnamed Zhuang, but she had no interest in acting. Just when she was about to refuse, she heard Zhao Qian negotiating with the director: "Director, she is a host, I'm afraid she doesn't have free time to act."
"Host? That camera must be good. How about it, Ms. Li? The appearance fee and everything else are easily negotiable, which is better than the dead salary you earn. There are also hosts from other TV stations who come out privately to accept commercials and scenes to earn extra money."
Zhao Qian secretly shook Li Wei's hand, as if he wanted to convey some kind of message to her, and heard him say: "Director, I think just forget her. She is not suitable for the role of Liu Rumei."
Director Zhuang became a little unhappy when he saw that Zhao Qian kept talking to stop him. He snorted coldly: "I asked Miss Li what she meant, so don't make the decision for her. Miss Li, I only asked you what you mean."
Li Wei had never thought about acting, but at this moment she asked with interest: "What kind of role is it?"
Seeing that Li Wei seemed to be a little moved, the director quickly introduced her: "She is a chivalrous woman with a clear distinction between love and hate. Her character is very good. As long as she grasps it well, she might become an instant hit."
"Xia Nu? Are there many fighting scenes?"
The director said from the side: "You can use a stand-in for the backs and long shots. Besides, they are all just showy. As long as you pay attention, they won't hurt anyone."
Before Li Wei could answer, Zhao Qian secretly held her hand and tightened it.
