Zila.
The door of the room that had been concealed was gently pushed open, and the major general ran in with snow cakes in his mouth.
A cat and a dog obediently lay on the carpet beside the bed, looking at Ji Li eagerly, as if they all longed for the owner's touch.
Ji Li regained consciousness from the news and trending searches, following the pets' little heads with one hand and one hand.
In just four or five seconds, Qin Li, dressed in casual clothes, walked in, "Are you awake?"
Ji Li looked at the approaching lover, his eyes brightened a lot, "Well, where have you been?"
"Take the major general out for a walk, and then go to a nearby supermarket to buy some things." Qin Li explained in a warm voice.
He picked up the thermometer on one side and checked his lover's temperature again.
Fortunately, the fever has subsided.
However, Qin Li still pulled the quilt over Ji Li, "I saw that you were a sound sleeper before, and I couldn't bear to wake you up."
"I originally wanted you to see me at the first sight after waking up, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late."
Ji Li chuckled twice, and handed the message on the phone to the other party to read, "By the way, I was stunned by this trending search right after I woke up."
Obviously Chen Yanjun bumped into it by himself, but in the end, it turned out that he helped the police crack down on the drug stash
"You said, is this a pie in the sky?"
"You are the officially recognized image ambassador of anti-drugs, and the higher authorities probably want to use this opportunity to promote anti-drugs-related content."
Qin Li thinks this is a good thing.
Ji Li's career as an actor is still on the rise, the more positive news the better, maybe it will be a boost for him in the future.
Qin Li asked again, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"good."
Although he had a small fever before going to bed last night, Ji Li was already used to the temperature in Qin Li's embrace, and slept comfortably throughout the night.
Facing the unexpected cohabitation life, Ji Li is not only not nervous, but rather looking forward to it.
He hooked the other party's Adam's apple, with a moving smile, "Qin Li, good morning."
Qin Li took the opportunity to rub against the tip of his nose and kissed him, "Baby, good morning."
In the short response, there is an inextricable pampering.
Qin Li reached for the thick nightgown on one side, "Put it on and wash up, everything in the bathroom is ready for you."
"I bought some simple instant pasta, I'll have this later?"
"it is good."
…
Today's weather is good, the sun shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, making the entire blanket warm.
Ji Li gave Xuebing and the major general each a piece of teething stick, and then they had a simple lunch with Qin Li.
The two randomly found a movie with a high rating and watched it while eating.
Probably because of a common problem as actors, the two of them watched the movie and chatted about their plans for the new year unconsciously.
Ji Li stirred the pasta with a fork, "Qin Li, it's about time for you to pick up a new script? According to Director Cameron, the movie will be released this winter at the earliest."
Moreover, the movie "Long Island Iced Tea" has been kept under wraps, and no actors have been officially announced yet.
For domestic movie fans, Qin Li's last film work was already on New Year's Day last year.
Even counting Xie Chenyuan who played a guest role, the gap period is too long.
Qin Li approached with a smile, "So you want to drive me out to pick up new movies? Afraid I can't support you?"
"Who will depend on you to support me? I don't need money now." Ji Li pushed him away, and dismissed with a snort.
"You haven't received a new film for too long, I feel anxious for your domestic movie fans."
Probably because of Mu Qiang's mentality, Ji Li is still looking forward to witnessing that Qin Li can continue to create box office myths.
Qin Li took a sip of warm water, "Don't worry, the new script has been finalized, and I will join the filming team after this year is over."
When Ji Li heard about this, his curiosity was immediately aroused, "What movie? When was it decided?"
"A suspenseful criminal investigation movie cooperating with director Ke Hei, with double-sided personalities, the main character is a perverted killer, and the secondary personality is a psychological healer."
In a few words, he made it clear how difficult it is to interpret the role.
"It's quite challenging, and it sounds more novel than ordinary double personalities." Ji Li raised his eyebrows.
In the past, the "dual personality" in film and television works basically put the positive personality first. In Qin Li's new script, is it reversed
Qin Li nodded, "These two characters are characters I have never been in contact with before. I have read the complete script, and the reversal of the plot is quite exciting."
"Which director?"
"Director Ke Hei, screenwriter by Mr. Menglong."
Qin Li's first movie "The Awakened" when he stepped into the circle was the work of director Ke Hei.
It was a great attraction for the two to cooperate again after many years, and the script and schedule were both suitable, so Qin Li readily agreed.
"The filming contract has been signed, and the filming will start on the eighth day of the lunar new year. You have been busy promoting the film some time ago, so I didn't have time to tell you."
Ji Lidang pulled the last bite into his stomach, and nodded in a muffled voice.
Qin Li looked at him, and took the initiative to mention the matter, "Actually, I have always had a movie project in my hand, and the subject matter tends to be about the end of the world."
The Huaguo film and television market has always been relatively weak in terms of 'disaster themes'. In recent years, most of the disaster films that have made the name come from overseas countries.
Qin Li selfishly wants to occupy the bulk of this field.
Oak Star has been preparing for this film project since a year ago. If the filming is officially launched, it is conservatively estimated that the investment will be 500 million.
"The male lead in the script, I always think it suits you very well, but..."
Qin Li paused, and turned to express his concerns, "I can't let you make this movie yet."
"Special Operations" starring Ji Li is a project invested by Lixing, and "Long Island Iced Tea" is a rival play with Qin Li.
Next, there will be no less publicity between the two on the same stage.
If they continue to cooperate in a third play, it will not be suitable for Ji Li's development.
At present, the CP fans of the two are only a small part after all, and outside fans have not yet fully recognized their relationship.
If the two of them are too tightly bound in film and television work right now, it doesn't matter to him, but it is not a good thing to Ji Li.
Although Qin Li is not afraid of rumors from the outside world, she does not want her lover to suffer any undue belittling.
"Well, that's what I thought too." Ji Li nodded calmly.
No matter how popular he is now, there is always a gap between him and Qin Li's status in the circle.
As the side of the 'weak' for the time being, he is destined to bear more unprovoked attacks from Du Wei than Qin Yue.
Qin Li was protecting him, and Ji Li also wanted to prove his ability thoroughly by himself.
When he is strong enough to stand alone, then there is nothing to worry about in the relationship between him and Qin Li.
Qin Li knew that Ji Li's temperament had always been calm, so he would definitely be able to understand his true thoughts tacitly.
The copyright of this original script had already been bought out by Li Xing, and it was Qin Li's decision to shoot early and late.
Anyway, Ji Li is the only male protagonist he has identified, and one day, they will meet on the screen.
"I want to see if there is a suitable variety show invitation after the next year, and relax a little." Ji Li expressed his true thoughts.
Compared with filming and filming, he wants to take on a slow variety show to make his work pace a little slower.
"Variety show?"
Qin Li has rarely been on variety shows since his debut, and the occasional episode is enough for fans to cheer for a long time.
Ji Li expressed his opinion, "If you can find a variety show that suits your image positioning, at least it can maintain continuous exposure for three to four months."
He planned to use this time to recharge and relax while looking for a new round of scripts.
He still has two films in stock, and it is estimated that both will be released this year.
Relying on the continuous exposure of variety shows in the first half of the year, we will continue to join the group in the second half of the year, start a new round of script shooting, and accumulate works again.
Rising actors need sustainable development.
Listening to his lover's plan for nearly a year, Qin Li nodded in support, "Honey, I have a hunch that you will catch up with me soon."
"Of course." Ji Li replied confidently, "Don't stop, I will try my best to catch up with you."
"it is good."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
It is actually quite a pleasant thing to find a partner who is in harmony with each other in career.
…
Taking advantage of the rare vacation, Ji Li stayed at home honestly and experienced a life of "both cats and dogs".
In the blink of an eye, it is the new year.
Ji Li nestled on the sofa with her snow cake in her arms, staring intently at the video playing on the screen.
Qin Li took the dirty major general to the pet shop to take a bath, but he couldn't come back for a while.
— click.
The door opened suddenly.
Ji Li was startled, and slowly picked up the snow cake and walked towards the gate, "Qin Li, did you wash it so quickly today?"
As soon as he turned the corner of the entrance, the smile on his lips froze.
The person standing at the door was not Qin Li, but an elegantly dressed lady.
The other party wears exquisite makeup and luxurious clothes. At first glance, she looks like a rich lady who has lived in a wealthy environment all year round.
She took off her scarf and gloves, and looked at Ji Li who was in a daze at the moment with interest.
"It seems that my surprise inspection came at the right time. It's rare for Xiaoli to take someone home?"
"Meow ~"
Snow Cake's tail hair rubbed against the back of Ji Li's hand, and the slight tingling sensation brought him back from his thoughts.
Small oak
Who else knows the door code
Ji Li thought of something, and unconsciously tightened his body, "Hi, it's the first time we meet, I'm Ji Li."
"I've seen your film and television works, Zhao'er in "Under Heaven"? And Xie Yan? They all acted well."
The lady announced the names of the two characters, and then introduced herself calmly, "Hello, I am Qin Li's mother, Gu Wen."
"..."
The guess in my heart was suddenly verified.
Ji Li has lived for so many years, and for the first time, he felt a sense of tension from head to toe—
Haven't waited for Qin Li to bring him to meet his parents
The parent came to the door by himself.
It was too sudden!
Ji Li wasn't sure about Gu Wen's attitude, so he could only vaguely give the reason first, "Hi Ma'am, I'm Qin Li's friend, come and stay here for a few days."
"Stay for a few days? It seems that Xiaoli's ability is not very good, and he can't keep people." Gu Wen joked.
Her eyes fell on Ji Li, and she showed a clear smile, "I bought this nightgown on you for Xiaoli myself, and he gave you all his personal underwear. Ordinary friends?"
Ji Li followed the other party's line of sight, and immediately blushed so much that he could bleed.
Probably because of the snow cake in his arms, the neckline of his nightgown was half open, and mottled ambiguous red marks were faintly visible on his collarbone.
"..."
Gu Wen was so cute by the reaction of the young man in front of her, she covered her mouth and laughed twice.
"Sorry, I was rude." Ji Li quickly put the snow cake back on the ground, straightened the collar of her clothes, and bowed to Gu Wen.
"Please go ahead, I'll go change my clothes first."
After speaking, he hurried back to the room.
Gu Wen stared at Ji Li's flustered and cute back, and didn't think it was impolite for him to flee temporarily. After all, she was the one who went back to China temporarily without telling her son.
Now it seems that she has received a nice surprise
"This kid is promising once." Gu Wen secretly sighed.
Since Qin Li confessed his sexual orientation to her, he has never brought a boyfriend home in these years.
To be honest, Gu Wen secretly worried a few years ago—
Is my son not working there? Only then did she intentionally fabricate an excuse of being 'same sex' to avoid her 'to urge marriage'.
But now it seems that his son is not only capable, but also has a good eye for picking people.
…
Ji Li changed into clean and tidy clothes and went downstairs quickly.
He glanced at the mobile phone on the coffee table and sighed secretly—
Thinking of taking the opportunity of changing clothes, he sent Qin Li a 'distress message', but hurried back to the room, only to find that he didn't bring his phone upstairs at all.
At this moment, it is definitely not good for him to send text messages in front of Gu Wen, so he can only endure the embarrassment and wait for Qin Li to come back.
Gu Wen was sitting on the sofa, playing with a cat teaser and snow cakes.
She caught a glimpse of Ji Li and said calmly, "Come here and sit down. In this house, you are the host and I am the guest."
Ji Li met Gu Wen with a kind smile, and offered to pour her a glass of warm water, "Ma'am, I'm sorry, I just showed you a joke."
"Thank you." Gu Wen took the water glass and asked, "You don't need to call me auntie, Ma'am."
She stopped the topic and hid the unfinished words in her stomach—
If you want, it is not impossible to just call 'Mom' to listen.
Ji Li would be uncertain about Gu Wen's attitude for a while, and also afraid that what he said would be wrong.
After all, not all parents can accept that their son has a gay person.
"You don't have to be too restrained. In fact, Xiao Li confessed his sexual orientation to me a long time ago."
Gu Wen seemed to see Ji Li's latent concerns, so she confessed.
"If you are his boyfriend, then I like you very much."
Although she doesn't know Ji Li well, as a mother, she believes in, supports and respects every choice of her child.
Ji Li didn't expect Gu Wen to be so open-minded, and was flattered for a while.
"How long have you been with Xiaoli? Does he treat you well?"
"… pretty good."
"That's good. If he bullies you, you can tell me anytime. Auntie will make the decision for you."
Getting used to seeing her son's face, Gu Wen liked Ji Li more and more the more she looked at her.
Good looking and a good actor.
It is really good to have an extra son for no reason, and to be a mother without pain.
After all, Ji Li is someone who is used to big scenes. Seeing that Gu Wen accepted his relationship with Qin Li well, he soon relaxed.
The two slowly opened up the topic, and Ji Li discovered that Gu Wen knew a lot about filming.
Excellent directors and films at home and abroad, the other party knows more details than him.
Come to think of it, Qin Li must have followed his mother when he was first enlightened in the film and television industry.
Just as Ji Li was thinking, he heard Gu Wen and sighed.
"Speaking of which, Xiaoli entered this circle because of my unfulfilled wish."
Ji Li's eyes flickered slightly, and he was just about to continue to ask questions along the topic, but the next second, the sound of the electronic door opening rang again.
Xuebing moved her ears, and ran out with four pads.
The major general rushed in like a gust of wind, stopped abruptly in front of Xuebing, and his tail flew up.
"Baby, is someone here?" Qin Li walked in quickly, holding a packaged hot meal and milk tea in his hand.
When he saw Gu Wen sitting on the sofa, he raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, "Mom, why are you here?"
While Qin Li was asking, he approached Ji Li, his body language showed subconscious support.
Gu Wen saw his actions clearly, and smiled, "It's a big Chinese New Year, you don't want to go back to the United States, so I came to you."
"Where's my dad? He's here too?"
When Gu Wen heard this question, her expression turned awkward for a moment, "What are you talking about him for?"
It seems that there is another quarrel.
Qin Li decided on the answer in his heart, and simply flipped through the page, "How long have you been here? Why didn't you send me a text message?"
After speaking, he turned his gaze to Ji Li with silent concern.
-Are you ok
Ji Li hooked his lips, and responded with his eyes.
-fine.
Seeing the eye contact between the two, Gu Wen was happy in her heart, but she pretended to be angry on the surface, "Come on, can I still bully him?"
Seeing this, Qin Li simply took Ji Li's hand and formally introduced, "Mom, this is my lover, Ji Li."
Ji Li felt the strength of his palm and subconsciously gripped back tightly.
"I've seen it a long time ago." Gu Wen's formal attitude towards her son was very helpful.
"Let's go, I'll take you out to eat." Qin Li glanced at the time and offered to propose.
"No need, you little lovers stay at home and eat slowly." Gu Wen waved her hands, obviously not planning to stay longer, "I booked a hotel and made an appointment with old friends tonight."
Gu Wen took a step forward and looked at Qin Lizai carefully, "A few days ago you said you were celebrating the New Year in the Imperial Capital, so I just came to see you."
"Just see it now, the driver is still waiting at the gate of the villa area."
Gu Wen is a person with strong mobility. The things she planned do not need to be disturbed by others.
Qin Li knew his mother's temperament and didn't stop her, "Then I'll see you again in two days."
"Okay." Gu Wen responded, and then remembered another thing.
She looked at Ji Li again, as kind as ever, "The meeting was too sudden this time, and Auntie didn't prepare any gifts for you."
Halfway through speaking, she took out a traditional red envelope from her pocket and stuffed it in Ji Li's hand.
"This is the red envelope I prepare for Qin Li every year, but he didn't like to accept it when he was a child. This time, take it as a little gift from me."
Just as Ji Li was about to shirk, Qin Li agreed for him, "Thank you, Mom."
Gu Wen was looking forward to Ji Li's reaction when she opened the red envelope, and urged, "Do you want to open it and have a look?"
"This..." Ji Li lowered his eyes, feeling embarrassed.
"You've met your parents, and it's normal to accept my mother's red envelope." Qin Li persuaded with a smile, "Open it up and have a look? My mother, a wealthy wife, has always been generous."
Gu Wen clicked her son's tongue and continued to stare at Ji Li expectantly.
Take it apart and take a look, shall we? At worst, I will return it to Qin Li later.
Ji Li thought silently, he couldn't directly reject Gu Wen's wishes, so he carefully opened the red envelope.
He originally thought that the red envelope contained some cash, for good luck during the festival, but unexpectedly, a black gold card landed in his palm unexpectedly.
"The card number and password are Qin Li's birthday, and the credit is 50 million, just swipe it casually."
"If it's maxed out, I'll give you another one when I meet Auntie next time!"
Gu Wen was very happy. After all these years, finally someone from the younger generation was willing to accept her red envelopes.
"..."
Ji Li didn't show it on the surface, but he was already stunned in his heart.
He knew that Qin Li's family background should be good, but he didn't expect it to be exaggerated to this extent.
Fifty million pocket money
Just because of the status of Qin Li's boyfriend, did you give it all to him
Could this be the ostentation of the legendary giants? I can't stand it, I really can't stand it.
Seeing Ji Li's shock hidden under the calm appearance, Qin Li couldn't help laughing.
He approached his lover's ear and joked, "Do you want to try to get into a wealthy family?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Ji Li replied in a low voice.
He looked at the cheerful Gu Wen, "Auntie, this red envelope is too big, I..."
"The one given to you is yours, Ji Li, see you next time." Gu Wen replied bluntly, picked up her brand-name bag and went out.
Qin Li patted his lover's shoulder, and then followed, "Mom, I'll see you off."
"it is good."
…
It took more than ten minutes for Ji Li to barely recover from the shock of the huge red envelope.
Qin Li laid out the bought meals one by one, and asked with a smile, "Are you scared by my mother?"
"I was not scared by my aunt, but by her red envelope." Ji Li said truthfully.
Good guy.
A single card is almost worth half of a young actor's salary for a lifetime.
No wonder there are so many female celebrities in the entertainment industry who want to marry into a wealthy family? This is much faster than filming a drama.
Ji Li thought silently, and didn't intend to really use the money.
"Just leave it for now, it doesn't matter if you don't want to use it." Qin Li obviously understood his character very well.
Ji Li nodded, still a little curious in his heart, "Qin Li, Auntie said, did you enter the entertainment industry to fulfill her wish?"
"Probably." Qin Li had no intention of hiding it from him, "My mother was also an actress before, and she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress."
"When she was on the rise in her career, she met my father."
Speaking of it, it's the "actress married into a wealthy family for love" part.
"After she married my father, she realized that life was not as beautiful as she imagined."
After Gu Wen gave birth to Qin Li, she gradually lost the idea of coming back, but she still had a little regret in her heart.
She always wonders, if she had persisted in her career, would her life be brighter now
"My interest in filming was indeed sparked by her, but it was my own choice to enter this circle at the beginning."
Qin Li looked at Ji Li, and threw out another truth, "Now, I am willing to stay in this circle after the summit because of you."
Ji Li was surprised, "Because of me?"
Qin Li's eyes flashed a glimmer, "I just want to stay in this circle, use every convenience to get close to you, accompany you, and watch you go to a high position."
At the beginning, as soon as this idea came to the fore, Qin Li took practical actions.
Those seemingly difficult coincidences in the past were actually deliberate and premeditated.
There was a hint of affection on Ji Lixin's pointed tip. He was just about to speak when his phone vibrated one after another.
Ji Li stopped the topic, picked it up casually, and found that it was Ji Yunqi's complaint on WeChat group——
"Ah, brothers!"
"I'm going to be disgusted by Shen Yanda and go crazy!"
"Does he understand what fair competition in the TV drama industry is?"
"To actually buy a navy to lower my TV rating, does he have any shame?!"
