"Now that you know, you still ask me?" Cui Hongmei sneered.
Ning Ning was dizzy for a moment, she closed her eyes, then opened: "Who did she buy the ticket with?"
"How do I know this?" Cui Hongmei put the coffee cup on the table, put a few pieces of sugar in it, and slowly stirred it with a spoon, "She only treats you as a family member, and she doesn't treat me as a family member, so she hides everything. guard me, guard me at all times..."
The stirring movement stopped, and her eyes became lonely for a moment.
But this loneliness only lasted for a few seconds, and she quickly returned to her usual appearance, with a bitter face: "But I have eyes and ears, I can hear and see, she can't hide those things from me."
"What did you hear?" Ning Ning couldn't help but sat up straight and looked at her, "What did you see?"
"Everyone regards me as a bad person and her as a good person." Cui Hongmei said lightly, "How can there be pure bad people and pure good people in this world, miracles in the world, peerless actresses, bright pearls in the crown of art, because of a vampire mother And Xiangxiaoyu's ill-fated beauty... she's not as innocent as you think."
... I'll go, aren't these all the contents of the entertainment newspaper, dare you say that you don't care about others scolding you, but in fact you memorize everything others scold you
Ning Ning complained and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Before Cui Hongmei could answer, her phone suddenly rang.
At first glance, it is the agent's phone number.
"Hello." Ning Ning got up helplessly, went to the bathroom to pick up the phone, "I have something to do right now..."
Li Boyue interrupted her: "What else is more important than work?"
"A little personal matter." Ning Ning said, "I'll call you back later, an hour?"
"Not even for a minute." Li Boyue said, "It's a rare opportunity, come back immediately."
A few minutes later, Ning Ning came back from the bathroom. Before she could speak, Cui Hongmei had already turned her head to look at her with a sneer: "You are more and more like your mother."
Ning Ning was stunned to hear the words.
"Work, work, work." Cui Hongmei slowly repeated the word several times, "There is only work in your life, nothing else."
Ning Ning suddenly blushed, she wanted to refute her, but she didn't know how to refute.
Because she does have to go back to work.
"...I'm in a hurry today." After a long time, she said embarrassedly, "I'll make an appointment with you later."
After Ning Ning paid the money, she walked away with her bag in embarrassment, and only took a few steps when Cui Hongmei's voice suddenly came from behind.
"Oh no." Cui Hongmei smiled at her back, "You call it a dream. For the sake of a dream, it is great to give up everything."
Ning Ning paused and continued to leave.
Raising her hand to stop a taxi, she sat up and reported the name of her company.
The car started, she stared at her reflection on the window, raised her hand to touch her cheek: "Am I more and more like my mother?"
The reflection on the car window is indeed more and more like Ning Yuren, both in appearance and temperament.
Under the polishing of Life Cinema, under the polishing of each movie and each character, the two of them gradually became the same.
"Isn't this exactly my dream?" Ningning murmured, as if questioning himself reflected on the car window, "Isn't my dream to become a person like my mother?"
A miracle in the world, a peerless actress, a dazzling pearl on the crown of art...
The applause of countless people, the approval of countless people, the praise of countless people...
Suddenly, a discordant voice emerged from it.
"Work, work, work! There is only work in your life, nothing else!"
Ning Ning woke up suddenly and shouted, "Stop."
The car stopped.
Ten minutes later, the door of the coffee shop opened.
Cui Hongmei was sitting on the sofa eating. She seemed to have arrived before she had eaten. She was hungry. As soon as Ningning left, she ordered a table of food, most of which were high-sugar creamy desserts.
"At this age, eat less junk food." A hard voice sounded from across from her, "You are not afraid of diabetes."
Cui Hongmei was stunned when she heard the words, and slowly raised her head to look at the man, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "Why are you back?"
Ning Ning stood across from her expressionlessly, the phone kept ringing in her hand.
Cui Hongmei glanced at her cell phone, then looked at her again: "You don't answer the phone?"
Ning Ning took it, but Li Boyue's roar was still rolling in, like a fancy tenor, chanting in her ear: "Are you here! You annoying little thing! Life lies in movement, you Why don't you run quickly? One two three one two three... Why haven't I heard the sound of your running??"
"I'm running! I'm running!" Ningning began to run in place, "Oh, bad, my phone ran out of power after you yelled at me!"
After turning off the phone, she hurriedly stopped and sat down opposite Cui Hongmei.
"... Hahahahaha!!" She didn't know where to poke Cui Hongmei's laugh, she laughed so hard that she almost squirted out a mouthful of dentures! She wiped her tears and said, "For the sake of making me laugh, you can ask me three questions today, and if I know the answer, I'll answer you."
Ning Ning thought for a while and asked, "Do you know what the ticket is for?"
"I don't know." Cui Hongmei replied, "I only know that Jade Man has been changing since she bought tickets. These changes are good and bad, but outsiders only see her acting is getting better."
"What's the bad side?" Ningning asked.
"More." Cui Hongmei smiled.
This answer was too general, Ning Ning asked further: "For example?"
"For example..." Cui Hongmei thought for a while, "In 1997, you got lost once, guess how she reacted?"
Ning Ning was stunned for a moment and replied, "Of course he came to find me."
"No." Cui Hongmei laughed, "She didn't look for you. During the month you were lost, she stayed at home calmly, eating, sleeping, and acting, as if there was no such thing as you. daughter."
"It's impossible!" Ningning stood up suddenly, sat back again under the watchful eyes of others, and said to Cui Hongmei in a low voice, "You lied to me!"
"I didn't lie to you, if it wasn't for a pair of young girls who picked you up and the weather was freezing cold, you'd be dead, so what are they called?" Cui Hongmei thought for a while, "The man seems to be called Wen... Hey, I'm old, I can't remember clearly."
"... Then what?" Ning Ning stared at her through gritted teeth, already a little suspicious that she was talking, because her mother couldn't climb out of the coffin to refute, so she was here to blackmail her.
"Then?" Cui Hongmei smiled happily, as if remembering something interesting, "A month later, she suddenly became a different person, looking for you everywhere like crazy, and even lost her temper with me, questioning her. I'm surprised why I didn't think highly of you, if she was really so nervous about you, what would she have done earlier?"
This kind of behavior is indeed strange, and for a while, Ning Ning could not find a reasonable explanation.
On the other hand, Cui Hongmei came up with a barely reasonable explanation: "I then thought about it carefully and realized that your mother initially wanted to throw you away, but after a month, she regretted it, and when she couldn't find anyone, she began to face her. I lost my temper. But if you were lucky, that pair of teenagers sent you home. Your mother treated you very well after the fight, so she wanted to tie you to her waistband. Haha, that's how she is. It is always the time when you make a mistake that you start to make amends.”
"My mother is not such a person." Ning Ning said firmly.
"Okay, okay, your mother is a good person, I'm a liar, don't believe what you just said, it's all a lie." Cui Hongmei waved her hand indifferently, "Okay, I've answered the three questions, what else do I need to say? Tell me?"
The two fell silent together.
Although they are relatives, they have little affection between them, and there is no memory of living together. If you put aside the topic of Ning Yuren, the two of them don't have any common language... They even have different tastes in chasing dramas! Ning Ning likes to follow idol dramas, and Cui Hongmei, she is a drama lover...
"It seems that there is nothing to say." Cui Hongmei smiled and got up and said, "I'm going to blow my hair, you... You should go back to work, make good money, and take good care of me."
Half an hour later, the taxi stopped at the door of Ningning Company.
After she got out of the car, she trotted all the way to find Li Boyue, panting and said, "Life lies in sports, I ran all the way, what's the matter?"
Li Boyue glanced at his watch and sighed: "I don't know if I can catch up. Forget it, try it."
He pushed his hand behind Ning Ning and walked out of the office with her.
"Quick, get rid of the oil on your nose." Li Boyue said as he walked.
Ning Ning hurriedly took out the powder box from her bag, slapped her face hard, and asked, "What are we going to do now?"
"The company is about to make a documentary. The prototype of the documentary is a singer who is very famous all over the world. Now she has come to the company." Li Boyue said, "This person is not simple, famous, rich, and She is keen on public welfare and has a very good reputation... Of course, the most important thing is that the investors are her husband and students, and she has to choose the heroine of this film herself."
"What's her name?" Ning Ning, after finishing her makeup, stuffed the powder box back into her bag.
Li Boyue stood in front of a gate, knocked three times, and the person inside said, "Please come in."
The door opened, and several pairs of eyes looked at Ning Ning together, one of them was old and gentle.
It was a gray-haired but elegant old woman. She sat on the sofa and smiled at Ningning. The smile was so peaceful and gentle that it could heal even the deepest pain.
"Let me introduce you." Li Boyue came to the old woman and introduced Ning Ning, "This is a well-known singer in our country - Yan Qing, Ms. Yan."
