Li Linlin has been exercising all this time. When Chen Yiran arrived, Li Linlin was showing off her muscles to Chen Xi with great interest.
"Your muscles are... very concealed." Chen Xi leaned against Li Linlin's arm, holding a magnifying glass in his hand, "If you don't pay attention, you won't notice it at all."
"..." Li Linlin glanced at the corner of her mouth and put down her rolled up sleeves, intending to show her her abs, "I also practiced my abs and mermaid lines!"
Just as she was about to lift her clothes, Chen Yiran pushed open the door and came in. The two people in the living room and Chen Yiran at the door were stunned. Li Linlin's movements froze in midair, and the clothes slipped from her hands.
"Brother Yiran, are you here?" Chen Xi was the first to regain his senses, stepping on his slippers and walking up, "You even brought us gifts!"
Chen Yiran was carrying a few paper bags in his hand, and at first glance it was a prepared gift.
"Oh, a New Year's gift for you and Linlin." Chen Yiran handed Chen Xi all the paper bags in his hand.
"Thank you, Brother Yiran!" Chen Xi happily ran to the sofa and called out Li Linlin, who was still in a daze, "Linlin is here to open the presents."
"Oh, oh..." Li Linlin brushed the black hair on the side of her ear, and without saying hello to Chen Yiran, she went to Chen Xi's side to look at the gift. Chen Yiran stood there alone, feeling a little at a loss. He coughed lightly and said, "What were you doing just now?"
As Chen Xi opened the gift, he said to him, "Oh, isn't Linlin going to join the group? The role she plays is excellent in sports and all-round, and she has practiced boxing! The director asked her to practice first, so as not to be too weak. chicken."
"Where am I weak, I have developed muscles!" Li Linlin retorted unconvinced.
Chen Xidao: "You are too embarrassed to call that muscle, eh, right, Yiran is always working out, look at what he has on him, and see what muscle is."
"..." Cough, don't say it, she really wanted to see it.
"Is Shanshan here?" Zhen Tian came out of her brewing room, holding a bottle of her new beer in his hand, "Great, everyone can taste my new beer together."
Chen Zui followed her out of the room and closed the door: "Xixi and Linlin are not very good at drinking."
"It's okay, my degree is very low, and it doesn't matter if I'm drunk today, I'm at home anyway."
Chen Yiran looked at them and shouted, "Uncle, aunt."
"Yeah." Chen Zui replied lightly, but Zhen Tian went up to ask him questions enthusiastically.
"I saw Weibo today, and it seems that a paparazzi took a photo of you and Lu Yinghou dating." After Zhen Tian was concerned about Chen Yiran's work and life, he suddenly asked this question.
The atmosphere in the living room changed subtly. Li Linlin and Chen Xi, who had been sitting on the sofa chatting quietly, glanced at them calmly.
"That was a dinner we had with the director, not a date." Chen Yiran explained, "The company has clarified, didn't you see it?"
"I saw it!" Chen Xi raised his hand, "Just now, Lu Yinghou also posted on Weibo, so that everyone should not scribble. Right Linlin?"
Chen Xi bumped Li Linlin with his elbow.
Chen Yiran looked over, Li Linlin sat up subconsciously, and brushed her hair again, pretending to be natural: "Oh, um... It seems so."
"Well then, it seems that the reporters wrote it all." Zhen Tian stood up and smiled at them, "I'll go to the kitchen to see if the dishes are ready, you can pour the wine first."
Chen Xi looked back at her: "Mom, I still want to drink Coke."
"If you want to drink, buy it yourself."
Chen Xi pouted, Chen Yiran laughed, stood up and said, "I'll go buy it for you."
"Wow, Brother Yiran is the best for me!" Chen Xi happily raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Li Linlin next to him, "Linlin, go with him and help me choose some snacks."
Chen Zui looked at her: "You can call Chen Yiran, why even call Linlin?"
Li Linlin said quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here to eat and drink today, I should help Xixi run errands!"
Chen Xi said: "Then you can go, dinner will be ready soon."
There is a 24-hour convenience store in the community where they live. Even today is New Year's Eve, the store is not closed. Li Linlin and Chen Yiran went downstairs together and walked towards the convenience store.
Li Linlin is wearing the dress Chen Xi gave her on her birthday today, with a French round neck and leg of lamb sleeves, which looks retro and elegant. Because Li Linlin likes red, this dress, Chen Xi, is also made in bright red, and the skirt is decorated with an oversized bow of the same color, which is embellished with warm white pearls.
Chen Yiran gave Li Linlin the pair of pearl earrings when he saw the pearls on the bow.
But Li Linlin didn't wear it today.
"Is it cold?" Li Linlin didn't wear a coat when she went out. Seeing her shrinking her arms, Chen Yiran took off her coat and put it on her shoulders, "Don't catch a cold."
The coat still carried Chen Yiran's body temperature, and Li Linlin only felt her shoulders sink, and she was surrounded by a warm current.
Li Linlin pulled the coat on her shoulders, raised her eyes and glanced at Chen Yiran who was walking beside her: "Thank you, brother Yiran."
Only street lamps were turned on in the community, and the orange lamps were cast from overhead, coating Chen Yiran's hair and eyelashes with a layer of soft light. Chen Yiran's angular profile didn't seem as inaccessible as usual at this time.
"It's alright." Chen Yiran's footsteps were unhurried, especially clear in the quiet night, "Xixi just said you were going to join the group?"
"Yeah." Li Linlin nodded, "It will start in early January, but most of the filming locations are in City A."
Chen Yiran nodded thoughtfully: "Is your studio hiring?"
"not yet."
"Then let me find two assistants for you. You are filming in the crew, and there is no one around to take care of you."
"No need, no need, Wu Hui'er will follow me."
"Just that little girl?" Chen Yiran obviously did not trust Wu Hui's ability to work. "Both of you have no experience. Let me find two qualified assistants for you."
Li Linlin thought about it for a while, she just helped her find two assistants, she didn't need to replace Wu Hui'er as her manager, and it was okay to agree. And the person that Yiran helped her find must be more reliable.
"Okay then, I'm in trouble, brother."
After chatting for a while, the two walked to the convenience store. Chen Yiran helped Chen Xi get a few bottles of Coke, picked out some of her favorite snacks, and went to Li Linlin with a basket: "Linlin, is there anything else you want to eat?"
Li Linlin looked at the clerk who was making milk tea next to her with some greed: "I want to drink milk tea..."
Chen Yiran didn't like this kind of milk tea that was mixed with saccharin, but the little girl seemed to like it very much, so he didn't say more: "Then buy a cup."
Li Linlin struggled for a while, but shook her head and said, "Forget it, Xixi has now been completely bribed by Wu Huier, and she has to monitor what I eat at night. And I'm exercising recently, if the coach knows that I drink milk tea, I'm afraid Pissed off."
Chen Yiran let out a low laugh, walked up and bought a cup of milk tea with the clerk: "Drink here, and go back after drinking."
"..." Li Linlin felt that Chen Yiran was condoning her crime, "Brother Yiran, it's not good for you to do this."
Chen Yiran slightly raised the corner of his mouth and looked at her with a half-smile: "Oh? Then what are you going to do?"
"..." Li Linlin pretended not to hear, and silently took a sip of milk tea.
what! Infuse the soul!
Chen Yiran saw that she took a few sips and put it down again, and asked, "Is it bad?"
"No, but if I gain weight..."
"Don't worry, meat doesn't grow with a cup of milk tea." Chen Yiran said, "Occasionally indulge yourself and treat it as a reward for yourself."
He said this, Li Linlin didn't even have the last struggle, she drank half of the cup of milk tea in one breath: "Brother Yiran."
She called out to Chen Yiran.
Chen Yiran gave her a soft "um" and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Li Linlin looked at him: "Do you have time to indulge yourself?"
"certainly."
Li Linlin blinked twice: "Like buying a house?"
Chen Yiran laughed and said to her, "Occasionally, there are times when I don't want to work."
"Really? I thought you liked work very much." Li Linlin looked at him in surprise, "You are the person I've ever met who likes work the most!"
Chen Yiran lightly knocked on her forehead, and said to her, "Hurry up, let's go back after drinking."
"Oh, do you want a drink?"
"I'm gone."
The two clerks at the cashier stood together and whispered, "Is that Li Linlin?"
"Certainly, she is no different from the picture."
"Is that next to her boyfriend?" the cashier was shocked, "Sister Linlin is still so young, who is so maddened!"
"...Okay, Linlin is 20 years old, don't worry about your mother." But the handsome guy next to him, why does he look so familiar? Is it the one who had an affair with Lu Yinghou today
Chen Yiran and Li Linlin left the convenience store under the eager eyes of the clerk. After returning home, Chen Xi ran up to interrogate them: "You have been buying Coke for so long? Are you doing other things behind my back?"
"What, how can it be." Li Linlin, who stole a cup of milk tea, suddenly felt guilty, "We fed the cat downstairs."
"Oh, hey cat—" Chen Xi said meaningfully.
"Xixi, called Shang Shanshan and Linlin to come over for dinner." Zhen Tian helped bring the dishes to the table, and shouted to the young people in the living room, "Eat first."
"it is good."
A few people gathered around a table, clinking glasses, and then starting to move chopsticks. Chen Xi took a piece of beef for himself, and said to Chen Zui and Zhen Tian: "By the way, while everyone is here today, I will discuss something with you. Isn't this the winter vacation soon? Linlin and I are still there. There is Wu Hui who wants to rent a house together outside and use it as our stronghold."
Chen Zui stopped his chopsticks and looked at them: "Don't you already have a studio?"
Chen Xi said: "The studio can't stay overnight. If we have a house, we sometimes want to live together. It's more convenient."
Chen Zui said: "I think you just don't want to live at home."
"We are also thinking about you." Chen Xi said plausibly, "Look at Uncle Li and Aunt Yu, they have been away for almost three months in order to avoid Linlin and live in the two-person world. Right Linlin? ?"
Li Linlin nodded: "My dad said that he couldn't bear my mother, and my mother said that he couldn't bear my father, so they went there together, and they didn't see anyone wanting me."
Chen Zui: "… "
Chen Xi held Li Linlin's hand and sympathized with her: "I understand, and I often feel that in front of my father and mother, I am a superfluous person."
Chen Zui & Zhen Tian: "… "
Chen Yiran, who was next to him, was thinking seriously about their renting a house. Hearing this, he couldn't help but chuckle: "I used to feel this way too."
Chen Zui & Zhen Tian: "… "
"Chen Yiran, are you also assured that a few of them are renting a house outside?" Chen Zui's eye knife killed him.
When Chen Yiran was a child, he was not afraid of the sky, the only thing he was afraid of was his uncle Chen Zui. Although he is grown up now, it is estimated that Chen Zui can't beat him, but he still dare not be so arrogant in front of Chen Zui: "They want to have a stronghold, it's nothing, anyway, it's not that they want to move out from home. But If I rent a house casually outside, I don’t worry about it.”
He thought about it and said to them, "Well, I'll ask Assistant Wu to sort out my properties in City A, and you can choose the one you like to live in."
The author has something to say: Li Linlin: I also feel the joy of the emperor's flopping. (^_-)
