As they looked at each other, Ji Ning felt his ears starting to get hot again.
The dazzling sunlight shone directly in, making the man's eyes filled with fine honey.
Ji Shiyan narrowed his eyes almost imperceptibly and said, "You can..."
He had just said three words when Ji Ning remembered that he didn't like a too bright environment when catching up on sleep, so he immediately turned around and pulled down the sunshade.
Her reaction was so quick that even she was stunned for a few seconds. She didn't know how to explain it, so she had to turn her back to him and act like an ostrich.
Ji Shiyan was obviously paused for a moment. He didn't expect that this passerby actually had some tacit understanding with him. He looked at her back for a few seconds before thanking her in a clear voice.
She buried her head and nodded desperately, but she didn't know if he saw it.
After a long time, she felt that the person next to her was breathing evenly, and then she slowly turned her head.
Perhaps he was really tiring from work, as he reclined his chair and fell into a light sleep.
It is really an exciting thing to have the person you think about day and night lying next to you.
The man's fingers were thin and slender, with distinct joints. He had a silver pinky ring on his little finger, which he had not taken off for many years.
There have always been many different gossips about the pinky ring. Some say it is to commemorate relatives, some say it is a lucky charm, and some say it is a couple's pair with a girlfriend outside the circle.
But she would rather believe it was a lucky charm.
She took off the same ring from the necklace around her neck. It was only after she put it on that she got her first starring role, which was of great significance to her.
She put the ring on her little finger, then gently moved closer to his finger and took a photo while holding her breath.
The plane arrived in City Y an hour later. When Ji Shiyan woke up, he found that the person next to him was looking for something in his bag. He couldn't see his face clearly, but he didn't care and got off the plane.
The RV for rest was already waiting at the intersection. Ji Shiyan got on the RV surrounded by fans and heard his agent gossiping: "You and Ji Ning are on the hot search."
Although the name was unfamiliar, Ji Shiyan still tilted his head and asked, "Is it strange?"
"It's not surprising that you're on the hot search list. She's just innocent," Jiang Sheng sighed. "You just helped her up, and she was scolded like crazy."
"The one on the red carpet?" Ji Shiyan finally realized who he was and asked, "Did my fans scold me?"
"Of course not. Other teams are jealous of her resources and bought her black fans. Nowadays, passers-by are too easily influenced by rumors. After reading some fabricated negative information, they believe it without a doubt and pick up their keyboards to 'enforce justice on behalf of heaven.'"
Ji Shiyan was not interested in the gossip. He drank a sip of tea and started reading the news.
Seeing that he didn't stop, Jiang Sheng spoke out, "That girl, her ears turn red whenever she's acting with a male actor, so she's nicknamed Little Ear. She became famous a while ago with the movie Feng Nan. She's 20 years old, smart, and good at acting, so she's very likable."
"It looked like the momentum was strong, but it turned out to be a poor victim of capitalism."
"You know Sun He, right? She's signed to a company. In fact, Sun He is the boss's illegitimate daughter. She has amazing resources, but she just can't be popular. After a year of hard promotion, she just started to improve a little bit, but she was photographed checking into a hotel with her sex partner late at night - she has a pure image, isn't she finished if this is exposed?"
Ji Shiyan ignored it, remembering that he hadn't finished reading the things on the plane, so he took out the market report and the shortlist for "First Kiss Diary" and continued reading.
Jiang Sheng was immersed in his own world: "That group of photos only showed the back, and Sun He and Ji Ning look a bit alike. The company must have protected the boss's daughter first, so they pushed Ji Ning out. The public is not very tolerant of female stars, and the criticisms were very vicious. That girl really likes filming, and there is no way she would confront the company at this critical moment. She can only resist."
"But her acting skills are really quite talented, and she has a good reputation in the industry. It is not impossible for her to find the right time to turn the tide..."
Hearing this, Ji Shiyan finally couldn't help but put down the tablet, frowned and asked: "Are you free today?"
"I'm exchanging top-secret gossip with you, but you're so old-fashioned, how come you're not interested at all?" Jiang Sheng shook his head helplessly, "Didn't you think so when you saw her last time? She looks so young, with a face full of collagen."
Ji Shiyan didn't say anything and naturally recalled the scene of that day.
She seemed to have taken a look when she got off the car, but didn't pay much attention to it. When I helped her along the red carpet, I only saw her red ears, which looked like blood would ooze out if I pinched them.
"Hey, someone else said she was on the same flight with you today. Did you see her?"
The man turned his watch: "I don't know."
///
Ji Ning's shooting assignment today is a set of Hong Kong-style films. Perhaps because of her excellent temperament, her fashion resources have been very good since her debut.
"This is the last set. Turn your face to the side. Perfect - call it a day!"
Ji Ning supported himself on the edge of the table and moved with difficulty.
Assistant Nuonuo hurried over to help her: "It's over, no need to tiptoe."
"I know," Ning moved his ankle, "but my leg seems to be cramping."
"… "
The wall background was too high, so she needed to stand on tiptoe to coordinate. The floor tiles in the shed were cold, so she put on a pair of slippers instead of being barefoot.
Fortunately, the slippers were not in the picture, and the actress in the photo was still dignified, charming and gorgeous.
When leaving the studio, Nono sighed: "Who would have known that such a cool Hong Kong-style photo was taken by you on tiptoe wearing Pikachu slippers."
"Disillusioned?" Ji Ning laughed. "Last time I was interviewing, I saw the host coming out of the news. He had a suit and tie on top, but underneath he was wearing a pair of beach shorts with prints on them."
Nuonuo was also amused. She looked at her profile for a while, thinking that she had also served several artists, but none of them was as easy to get along with as her.
She is neither arrogant nor a pushover and is very comfortable to get along with. She also treats all the staff as friends, which is rare in the hypocritical entertainment industry.
There was a business dinner before the ribbon-cutting ceremony. During the break, she discovered that #Ji Ning fell into Ji Shiyan's arms# had been the number one trending search for a long time. Someone deliberately picked a GIF with blurred key points. In the picture, she and the actress did not collide, as if she had fallen towards Ji Shiyan in an attempt to scam him.
The comments were already filled with full of malice -
If you can’t walk, don’t wear high heels. Does self-management automatically become invalid once you see the top star
When will Ji Ning disappear from my sight? Those who are trying to take advantage of the low-key handsome guy are all dead.
Ah no, stay away from my brother, you dirty thing! !
When the person in front of her bumped into her, she started to act like a bitch to herself. Why wasn't her acting so superb when she was filming
Stop scolding me, I still need to praise him, at least he didn't have sex last night [狗头保命]
Human nature is always unscrupulous in speculating on human nature with the greatest malice. They take advantage of hiding behind the screen to start attacking wantonly, even if what they see are just pictures deliberately slandered by marketing accounts.
Cyber bullies often think they are on the side of justice and do not take their evil deeds seriously.
No one wants to be put together with the person they like like this. She felt stuffy in her chest and went out to get some fresh air under the pretext of washing her hands.
Nuonuo probably guessed what she was doing and sent her a message: Do you want me to urge the company again
No need. I will go to the company in person to discuss it in a couple of days.
It is urgent to replace the new team. The golden public relations time is getting shorter and shorter with the development of the Internet. Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative.
Ji Ning was thinking about what she said during the negotiation, but she didn't expect to run into a producer with extremely bad character in the backyard. Not only did he try to take advantage of her, but now he couldn't read her expression and kept talking: "My next drama is really good, and I want to show the script to Ji Shiyan. Do you know him?"
She thought he was asking her if she had any contact information and shook her head.
"You don't even know Ji Shiyan?" The other party obviously didn't know about her and Ji Shiyan's red carpet incident, "The one who played in "What to Do"!"
——It turned out that he was asking her if she knew Ji Shiyan.
But Ji Ning didn't want to chat, so he gave an awkward and polite smile, ready to quickly end the topic: "I don't know him very well, I haven't seen him before."
Suddenly, a low cough was heard behind me.
The producer looked over in astonishment: "... Ji Shiyan?"
Ji Ning's body stiffened.
The man's face appeared in the side mirror. Not long ago, when they were sitting next to each other on the plane, she had carefully tried to count the hairs on his cheeks.
He probably stood there for a while.
Ji Ning's cell phone buzzed twice. It was Nuonuo looking for her: Where are you? We are going to cut the ribbon!
She bit her lip, thinking that it was fine if she lied outside that she didn't know him, but how could he find out...
"I, I'll go first." Ji Ning turned around to look at him, but he didn't have the courage. He bowed, lowered his head and hurried out.
As I passed by him, I smelled the crisp scent of amber and ebony again.
Later, she was absent-minded throughout the entire ribbon-cutting ceremony, and didn't know what impression she left on him.
Falling down on the red carpet? Reading minds on the plane? Being arrogant and conceited because of not knowing your seniors
Headache.
She walked towards the dressing room in a daze and didn't notice the two girls guarding the door, and the two girls didn't notice her either. She walked to the end and pulled open the curtain, and the man's wonderful broad shoulders and narrow waist came into view, although only for a moment.
Ji Shiyan stretched out his arms and was putting on his shirt when he suddenly heard the sound of buttons falling. He turned his back to the door and turned around.
Ji Ning felt a buzzing in his ears, and his first reaction was to apologize, then close the curtain and leave quickly.
As a result, the hands, feet and mouth sent out commands at the same time, and the brain ran out of memory, so it got stuck for a while.
Her leg, which had not yet fully healed, began to cramp again, and she found herself unable to move.
… …
If the pain hadn't been so real at the moment, she would have thought she was filming an idol drama.
Ji Ning, who had lost all hope, tried to make up for it. He covered his eyes and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here..."
The man's voice was a little deeper. He calmly buttoned the last button and pointedly reminded: "Rather than turning around and covering your eyes, you should just leave directly."
Who do they think she is? If she could leave, she would have left long ago!
Her face was burning with anger, but she was too embarrassed to say that she had cramps, so she managed to utter, "Can you please..."
The man said calmly, "I haven't changed my pants yet."
Ji Ning's mind exploded and he tried to turn sideways with difficulty to move out, but his heel seemed to be nailed to the spot and began to feel numb and sore whenever he moved.
Why did she have to come here to change clothes? Was she crazy? Why didn't she change in the car
She couldn't turn left, she couldn't turn right, and she couldn't even turn 180 degrees. For a moment, she felt inexplicably anxious.
Ji Shiyan had no idea what was going on. He saw that her earlobes were red and moving around in a way that went against common sense, like glutinous rice balls in boiling water and a broken pointer.
He crossed his arms and chuckled for no apparent reason.
When he smiled, Ji Ning became even more panicked: "Don't laugh."
He was so weak just now, but now he feels confident for no reason, as if he shouldn't have laughed in the first place.
Ji Shiyan smiled, raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Okay, sorry."
Finally, it was Nuo Nuo who received the call and came to help her out.
It's really funny that her legs, which couldn't move when she saw Ji Shiyan, were able to walk briskly again after leaving the lounge.
After getting on the RV, Ji Ning went straight to the small bed and covered himself with a pillow, leaving only a faint scream like a rabbit being plucked.
Nuo Nuo went out for a while, and when he came back, he obviously knew the whole story.
"It's okay, it's all a misunderstanding. Ji Shiyan had an event behind you, there was only one changing room, and the girl at the door forgot to tell you, it's not your fault. I know Brother Jiang Sheng, get up quickly, I'll ask him to introduce you to Ji Shiyan."
How to introduce
――Hello, I am Ji Shiyan.
--Hello, I am Ji Ning, who has not obtained the official authorization but still insists that I am your legal wife. You can call me Mrs. Ji. Although I said today that I don't know you, I saw you put on clothes and almost saw you change your pants.
Then her acting career might end here.
Ji Ning was temporarily ashamed to face her husband, so she refused sullenly, "No need."
Nuonuo respected her decision, and took the trouble to run to Ji Shiyan: "I'm sorry, my artist is quite timid."
Ji Shiyan's eyebrows twitched and he looked towards the RV not far away.
Timid? Not necessarily.
When she said before that she had never seen or knew him, he thought she was quite brave.
///
After the event ended, Ji Shiyan also got into the RV while chatting with Jiang Sheng.
He was involved in the behind-the-scenes and investment of the show "Diary of First Kiss". There was a major investor who had never invested in a dating show before and was willing to invest only if he participated.
He thought about it for a few days and felt that it was nothing more than a dating variety show, similar to filming a drama. It just so happened that his new drama had been postponed, so it would be fine for him to go traveling under the guise of recording the show.
So he asked Jiang Sheng: "Who are you going to pair me with?"
"There are three female artists in total, Shen Xin, Li Yujia, and Ji Ning. Li Yujia has more experience, so I plan to pair you two up."
Even he had heard of the name Li Yujia, the queen of hype who was always attractive to both men and women, and he hated being tied into hype the most in his life.
Ji Shiyan frowned and said, "You can join us, but we can change someone else."
"There aren't many options. If you don't want Li Yujia, who else can you replace her with?"
The man scanned the list and looked at a name meaningfully.
He tapped the edge of the table and said thoughtfully, "Ji Ning."
You still said you didn’t know him this afternoon
Then let her get to know him properly...
