The air conditioner in the room was fully turned on, and the arms stretched outside were a bit cold, but the body under the blanket was extremely warm.
Cen Ning was held in his arms, and turned to face him with difficulty.
"I'm getting up."
"Yeah, I heard it." With her eyes closed, Yan Zhizhi's nasal voice fell low on her eardrums, like a feather passing by.
Cen Ning stretched out his hand and pushed him: "Then you still don't let me get up."
Words and deeds slowly opened his eyes, and his chin rested on her forehead: "Sleep for a while."
"No..." Cen Ning struggled, "I want to get up."
Holding her in words and deeds, "Half an hour."
Cen Ning: "No."
"ten minutes."
"I am late."
"five minutes."
"..."
"One minute?"
Cen Ning pursed his lips, couldn't help laughing, looked down at her, and frowned: "Oh, not even for a minute."
Cen Ning: "Haven't you stayed in bed for a long time, soldier, you have strict discipline."
"Soldiers are human too, and there are times when they don't want to obey the rules." As he spoke, Yan Dezhi's hand stroked her waistline, and patted her delicate buttocks.
The crisp sound is quite loud.
Cen Ning snorted, and suddenly lifted the quilt: "I, I won't tell you anymore, let's go!"
Words and deeds propped up his body lazily: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Cen Ning didn't agree either, he walked out of bed and randomly picked up a small blanket beside him, wrapped it around his body and ran out of the room.
In the end, Yan Xingzhi and Cen Ning went to the film festival together. Cen Ning took Yan Xingzhi to watch it around, but later Xing Xingzhi left a little earlier, so Cen Ning went to find Dabei and the others.
A few people are quite free today, chatting and admiring pictures, the time passed quickly.
When the library was about to close, a staff member came over.
"Cen Ning."
"Eh."
"Mr. Yin Li asked you to go there."
"Oh good." Cen Ning asked, "Where is it?"
"Over there in your photo gallery."
"OK."
When Cen Ning walked to her exhibition area, she saw Yin Li was talking to a man, and when she got closer, she heard them talking about her works.
"Hey, Cen Ning, you're here." Yin Li turned around and introduced to the man, "Xiaoquan, this is the author of the work, Cen Ning."
The man was slightly surprised: "I still don't believe you when you say you're a little girl, but now it seems that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead."
Cen Ning said politely, "Hello."
"Hello." The man stretched out his hand, "Duan Xiaoquan."
Cen Ning was stunned for a moment: "My name is Cen Ning."
Duan Xiaoquan... If I remember correctly, Duan Xiaoquan is the winner of this year's Asian Best Photography Awards Macro World Category. I heard that this person was once a top student at the School of Visual Arts in New York, and he is very talented and individual in photography.
It's just that he seems to be very low-key. Although he has won numerous awards, he rarely appears in front of the public, so even a photographer like Cen Ning can't recognize him.
I didn't expect Duan Xiaoquan to be so young, he looks less than thirty.
"Are the photos in this series taken from various places in Tibet?" Duan Xiaoquan asked.
Cen Ning nodded: "Yes, most of them are in a place called Baga Township. That place is very special, with few people and many scenes."
"Your photo is also very special," Duan Xiaoquan smiled faintly, "There is obviously a sense of imbalance visually, but it doesn't feel out of harmony. The sky is vast and cloudy, but looking at it... there is a feeling of loneliness."
Cen Ning: "Teacher Duan thinks looking at space is too lonely?"
Duan Xiaoquan looked at her: "It doesn't look like the work of a little girl your age."
Cen Ning pondered for a moment: "Can I take it as Teacher Duan praising me?"
Duan Xiaoquan smiled loudly: "Of course I'm praising you."
"Thanks."
"Oh, by the way, I don't know which school you are studying in now?"
Cen Ning: "I'm not a photography major, I'm studying English, and I'm in A University."
Duan Xiaoquan was a little surprised: "I don't know if you want to go to further study in the future?"
Cen Ning froze for a moment: "Huh?"
"You must have thought about it, right?" Duan Xiaoquan said, "I think you can consider New York Vision."
After hearing this, Yin Li laughed and said, "Xiaoquan, you are recruiting talents for your alma mater."
Duan Xiaoquan: "Haha, Teacher Yin discovered all of this."
Yin Li had a look of "I don't understand you yet": "New York Vision is a good place, Cen Ning, you can choose to go to further study after college, your qualifications can't be wasted, go outside and learn more useful things .”
Going abroad... for further study
Cen Ning envied the people who studied photography in those places in the past, but before that, she never thought that she could go there one day.
For some reason, seeing people like Duan Xiaoquan and Yin Li, and hearing their words of encouragement and support, her heart suddenly felt like it was about to move. Maybe one day... She can really learn what she wants to learn, do what she wants to do, and walk to the position she wants, as she imagined in her fantasy.
**
After the film festival ended, Cen Ning came to pick him up with word and deed, but he didn't drive to the apartment.
"where are we going?"
Looking at the front, he said, "Tang Zheng suddenly said that he would invite everyone to have a meal together. Why, didn't Zhang Ziyi send you a message?"
Cen Ning frowned, took out his phone and looked at it.
Ah... there really are.
"Never looked at it."
"It's okay, just go straight, everyone is here."
"Um."
Today is not a special day, but Tang Zheng suddenly organized a game to bring everyone together.
Words and deeds and Cen Ning arrived at the place, and sure enough, they saw a lot of familiar faces.
"Brother Yan, Cen Ning, you are here!" Tang Zheng booked the top floor of the hotel, as if celebrating a birthday.
After looking around in words and deeds, he asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
Tang Zheng coughed lightly and scratched his head: "I just... have something important to say."
"Tang Zheng, please don't be a jerk!" Someone shouted from behind, "Gather all of us together, what do you want to say?"
"Why are you in a hurry!" Tang Zheng pulled Cen Ning into words and deeds, "The people are all here now, so of course I will talk about it right away."
When Cen Ning walked in, he saw Zhang Ziyi, and she naturally sat next to her, but Tang Zheng pulled her up as soon as she sat down: "Hey little girl, give me this seat today, go and sit next to Brother Yan Play."
Cen Ning blinked his eyes, looked at Tang Zheng, who had an unnatural expression, and Zhang Ziyi, who was silent and shy for no reason...
A thought flashed by, but before it had time to catch it, it was led by words and deeds.
"Sit here."
When everyone was seated, Tang Zheng cleared his throat and stood up from his seat.
"Actually, I have nothing serious."
Xin Zechuan: "Say something quickly."
Tang Zheng: "Uh... I just want to inform everyone today, after all, this is also my happy event..."
"Tang Zheng! You fart, hurry up, what are you doing with so much foreshadowing?!"
"That's right, are you going to come out?"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha-"
"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble!" Tang Zheng rolled his eyes, "I just want to say, I'm with Zhang Ziyi."
"???"
"..."
Tang Zheng: "So don't fucking introduce me to someone in the future, it's really annoying."
This "I'm bored to death" is two parts distasteful and eight parts hypocritical, and it really sounds like "I have a date and it's awesome".
Everyone was silent for a moment, looking at each other.
"Tang Zheng, what the hell are you attacking the little sister in our courtyard?" One person broke the silence first, "What is this called? Did the rabbit eat the grass beside the nest?"
"That's right, and why didn't we get together early because we liked each other so early, we only got together after a long time, oh! Did you bully our Ziyi!"
Tang Zheng: "Bah, bah, bah! What are you thinking, and what's the matter with me eating grass beside the nest? Shouldn't you talk about Brother Yan first, why are you only attacking me?"
The eyes of words and deeds shot innocently were raised, and he said coldly: "She is the grass in my nest, not the edge of the nest."
Cen Ning: "..."
Xin Zechuan: "They have been unmarried since they were young, who dares to say anything, but you two, why suddenly..."
"Together is to be together, there are so many reasons." Zhang Ziyi, who has been silent for a long time, rarely blushes, but even if she blushes, she is bluffing, "Anyway, I just treat you to a joint meal. , You're welcome, eat wantonly, Tang Zheng treats you."
The antonym of breaking up became hand in hand, which is what Zhang Ziyi can say.
However, everyone enjoyed the meal. After all, they are sincere friends, and if the other party has something happy, it is naturally a blessing.
But Cen Ning was a little dazed, she didn't know why people who were noisy one second were together the next, and Zhang Ziyi was still yelling at Tang Zheng in front of her two days ago for not being human...
"Ning Ning! Come! I'll have a drink with you." Zhang Ziyi and Tang Zheng's meal was like a wedding banquet, they paid respects one after another, and everyone was in a daze.
Cen Ning looked at her with a smile: "Don't drink too much."
Zhang Ziyi: "No, I just want to drink more today, let's drink."
Cen Ning was so troubled that he had no choice but to reach for the wine glass on the table, but she was taken away by words and deeds before she touched it.
"I'll drink it for her."
Zhang Ziyi blinked her big eyes, watching her words and deeds drank it all down: "Um..."
Words and deeds: "She has serious business tomorrow, so she can't drink."
Zhang Ziyi: "Ah! It's a film festival, isn't it!"
Cen Ning: "It's actually fine, I'm free."
As he spoke, he poured another glass and drank it regardless of the disapproving eyes.
Zhang Ziyi smiled very proudly: "Sure enough, she is a good sister!"
It was already completely dark after the dinner, so Yan Xingzhi took Cen Ning downstairs, ready to pick up the car.
"Let's go for a walk by the river, shall we?" Cen Ning put his arms around his arms, with a small face stuck to his clothes, looking up at him.
Words and deeds couldn't help reaching out and pinching her face: "Walking, now? Are you sure?"
Cen Ning hiccupped: "I smell like alcohol! I want to have a haircut, I don't want to go home."
He also pampered her in words and deeds, "Okay, let's go home after a while."
"Um!"
They said it was a walk, and they said it was a short walk, but within a few steps, Cen Ning leaned against him weakly.
From her words and deeds, she knew that she would be limp after drinking too much, so she said helplessly, "Don't go, go back."
"No, I want to blow dry."
After thinking about his words and deeds, he bent down in front of her: "Okay, I'll carry you on my back."
Cen Ning looked at the back in front of him, swayed and didn't dare to go up.
Seeing that the people behind were silent for a long time, he turned his head and said: "What are you doing in a daze, I will take you back if you don't come up."
"Don't… "
Cen Ning was anxious and rushed up.
The ease of words and deeds lifted her up, and Cen Ning leaned on his shoulder, feeling extremely happy in his heart, and boldly pinched his face.
He froze for a moment: "Let go."
"Not loose."
"Hiss... you're still in good spirits."
Cen Ning giggled, and suddenly put his mouth close to his face: "Brother Xingzhi, kiss me, once you kiss me, I will let go."
The brows raised in words and deeds, it really is courageous after drinking.
He suppressed a little smile on his lips, and said seriously: "Come here."
"oh!"
On the sidewalk by the river, several people were walking shoulder to shoulder.
"Hey, let me tell you, why are you walking along the riverside like other young couples?"
"It's boring, come over when Brother Yan is here."
"He has a little wife with him, what do you have?"
"Depend on… "
"Speaking of which, I always feel that Brother Yan has changed after Cen Ning."
"Yes, I think so too, but this is pretty good, it's more humane."
"But don't you think Brother Yan spoils this little girl too much? Fortunately, this girl has a gentle personality, and someone who is a little domineering will surely go to heaven."
