"Can I really go?" After dinner, Liu Qianxiu stood by the sink, listening to the confirmation from the woman next to him. She was like a child who was allowed to go out to play by her parents before finishing her homework during the holidays, excited and uncertain.
"Yeah." Liu Qianxiu finished washing a bowl.
When she was sure, she laughed, leaned against the kitchen counter, tilted her head and asked him, "Is Taoism far away?"
"Far."
"Then shall we go by train?"
"drive to."
"Self-driving." She elongated her tone, and her tone was filled with joy, "Are there many Taoist friends in the Taoist temple?"
"No, the master is going out, and only my senior brother is in the Taoist temple."
"Ah?" Mu Wan was startled. But after being surprised, she quickly thought about it. Liu Qianxiu likes to be quiet and quiet, so he doesn't like the kind of incense-filled Taoism. The Taoist temple he chose should be inaccessible.
While she was thinking, Liu Qianxiu cleaned the last bowl, turned off the faucet, took out a paper towel to wipe off the water stains on his hands, glanced at the time, and asked, "You don't need to film today?"
The search in Mu Wan's eyes disappeared, she returned to her senses, and after turning her attention to herself, she put her hands on the kitchen counter and looked out the window, and said, "I don't have a show today, nor tomorrow, nor the day after tomorrow. No."
From this point of view, it is also thanks to Mu Qing who cut all the tricks for her, otherwise she would not have time to follow Liu Qianxiu to the Taoist temple. How can we know that it is not a blessing if it is a blessing in disguise.
While she was talking, Liu Qianxiu kept looking at her. Mu Wan turned her head, met his eyes, and rubbed her nose.
"It's not that I'm not doing my job properly. I used to have a lot of acting these days, but I was..." Before she could finish speaking, Mu Wan closed her mouth and laughed. She and Liu Qianxiu can't talk about this, she just wants to go to the Taoist temple with him this week to have fun.
The light in her eyes jumped again, sweeping away the haze caused by the words just now, she raised the corners of her eyes, cautious and happy, and asked, "Why did you take me to the Taoist temple?"
The woman's voice is clear and sweet, with the sweetness of the lotus leaves in the morning after the rain. Liu Qianxiu looked at her and asked, "Are you happy?"
"Happy." The answer was simply affirmative.
The man stopped talking, as if this was the answer, raised his wrist to check the time, and said, "I'm going to work."
Liu Qianxiu went to work, and Mu Wan went home to pack his luggage. Depart on Thursday and stay until next Monday, a total of four days. Xia Tian's luggage was thin, and it was not easy for Mu Wan to pack it.
All the clothes in the closet were scattered on the bed, and the cool wind from the air conditioner blew up a corner of the tulle. Mu Wan looked at the hill-shaped clothes, and only two pieces were picked out to put in the suitcase.
At the end of the selection, Mu Wan simply didn't choose any more, and lay down on the bed all at once. The woman's soft body sank into the pile of soft clothes, and after a while, a low laugh came from inside.
She turned over, with a smile on her face, raised her phone in front of her eyes, and called Lin Wei.
Lin Wei was drawing the design drawings. After receiving a call from Mu Wan, she called Mu Wan and went to the tea room to get coffee. I stayed up all night drawing, and I haven't finished work yet, so I'm a little tired.
Although Lin Wei is a rich second generation who plays around with the world, her work ability and level are unquestionable, and she also really likes interior design, staying up late is a common thing.
"Stayed up late?" Mu Wan could hear the exhaustion in her voice.
"Yeah." After taking a sip of bitter coffee to continue her life, Lin Wei let out a bitter "ouch" and asked, "Why didn't you go to filming today?"
Mentioning this, Mu Wan smiled, got up from the pile of clothes, and sat cross-legged.
"I haven't filmed a movie this week, what the hell did Mu Qing do, she wants me to beg her."
"Don't go." Lin Wei said.
Hearing what she said, Mu Wan was delighted, and said, "Of course, I won't starve to death without filming."
This is her confidence, which was given to her by Lin Wei. The two have been in love for many years, and it goes without saying how deep it is.
There was a smile in Mu Wan's words, obviously not just because of the joke she just made, Lin Wei narrowed her eyes and said, "So happy? What's the good thing?"
Unable to hide it from her, Mu Wan lay back, her long black and thick hair spread out in the colorful clothes, like black gems that fell apart, still shining.
"I'm going to the Taoist temple."
After taking a sip of espresso, Lin Wei coughed twice, put down the cup, and said in disbelief, "Why are you going to the Taoist temple? You love houses and crows, and you practice Taoism for love?"
"Go with Daoist Liu." Mu Wan said with a smile.
"Damn it?" Lin Wei was startled, "He asked you to accompany him? What's the relationship between the two of you now?"
"It's still the same relationship as before." Mu Wan said, her neck was pressed against the clothes, and her cool skin brushed against the cool tulle, with a delicate matte feeling, she confirmed: "But I feel that he treats me are different."
Where it is different, she can't jump to conclusions, but it has already manifested. Liu Qianxiu is an expert, and the Taoist temple is the place where he cultivates. He is willing to share that place with her, which means that she has approached him.
From the beginning when she said that she wanted to chase Liu Qianxiu, now that she has made such progress, Lin Wei seems to have finally cleared the game after playing for many years, and she is so happy that she can only say interjections.
"Then are you going to confess?" Lin Wei asked.
Looking up at the ceiling, Mu Wan thought for a while and said, "Let me try a little bit first."
If not, stop the loss in time and continue to boil the frog in warm water. If it works, then take it directly!
After hanging up the phone with Lin Wei, Mu Wan continued to pack her luggage. The small suitcase was full, and Mu Wan looked up at the time, it was already five o'clock. She sat in front of the suitcase and called Liu Qianxiu.
"Liu Qianxiu, what time do you get off work today?"
Mu Wan took a taxi to Tanger Hospital. Liu Qianxiu had a meeting today, and said that she would get off work late, and asked her to go directly to his house later. But it was meaningless for her to stay at home, so she simply went to the hospital to wait for him. After taking a taxi to the hospital, Mu Wan went directly to his office.
In the evening, the weather was still sweltering, but the hospital was always cool and ventilated, and the faint smell of disinfectant water hit the face. Staggering the crowd, Mu Wan took the elevator to the floor where Liu Qianxiu's office was located.
After getting out of the elevator, the setting sun shone into the corridor, and Mu Wan walked to the door of Liu Qianxiu's office amidst the nurses' gazes and soft discussions. As soon as I got to the door, I heard voices and footsteps.
As soon as the door opened, a male doctor wearing glasses came out. His eyes lit up when he saw Mu Wan, and he asked with a smile, "Who are you looking for?"
There were several doctors standing at the door, some men and women, some Mu Wan knew and some Mu Wan didn't know. She crossed the crowd and looked at the tallest one, Liu Qianxiu said lightly.
"Find me."
The doctors looked back and forth, and some looked at Xiao Yun next to him. Since they were here to look for Liu Qianxiu, it would not be appropriate for them to stand in the way. Several people walked out of the office door, and Liu Qianxiu also came out.
"Are you going to a meeting?" Mu Wan stared at several figures in white coats. They were still discussing something, and some male doctors turned their heads to look at her, with surprise and amazement in their eyes.
"Yeah." Liu Qianxiu was still holding the surgery report in his hand.
"Then you go." Mu Wan laughed, pointed to the office and said, "I'll wait for you."
"Okay." Liu Qianxiu responded, got up and walked in the direction of the group of doctors just now. Before turning around, he turned back into his office.
Mu Wan thought he had forgotten something, and walked in together. Liu Qianxiu took something out from the drawer under the desk, but before Mu Wan could see what it was, he had already handed it to her.
A carton of strawberry milk.
"It might be late, drink this first when you're hungry." Liu Qianxiu said.
The pink packaging box doesn't match the cold doctor's temperament, so he probably wouldn't buy this by himself. Mu Wan's heart was sweet at first, and then sour, thinking of Xiao Yun who she saw at the door just now.
"Where is this from?" Mu Wan looked up at him, but didn't answer.
Holding the milk, the man's dark eyes are quiet and patient, and his voice is low and deep.
"I bought it."
The sour mist dissipated, Mu Wan's lips parted slightly, her gaze retracted, and the roots of her ears felt a little hot. She took the milk, removed the straw and inserted it, and said, "You like this flavor, so do I."
In the transparent straw, milk-pink liquid flowed. She drank it a little, and it seemed to suit her taste very well, and the corners of her eyes were full of happiness.
Eyelashes moved slightly, Liu Qianxiu didn't stay any longer, got up and left the office.
Liu Qianxiu's meeting this time was indeed a bit long. After drinking the milk, Mu Wan played two games with her mobile phone. The large group of supporting actors in the photography base has been sending news. Recently, the IP adaptation is very popular, and the dramas are drawn one by one. Even if there are many actors, everyone can guarantee that there will be a play every week.
She can take a break this week, but if she is still cut off next week, then she is going to find Mu Qing. It's a joke to say that Lin Wei is raising her. She comes from a major and can only be an actress. She can't stop doing her own job because of Mu Qing's tricks.
It just so happened that my mother's death day was approaching.
Thinking of Jichen, Mu Wan raised her eyes and looked out the window. On a summer evening, the sun is still high at six o'clock, but it is not as blazing as it was at noon. Looking at the unglamorous sunlight, Mu Wan pursed her lips.
The tenth anniversary of her mother's death is also the tenth anniversary of her father and mother.
Liu Qianxiu stood at the door, looking at the woman in the sun, his eyebrows drooping slightly. After she put away the gloom in her expression, lowered her head and played the game again, Liu Qianxiu pushed the door and walked in.
Mu Wan turned her head, her eyes jumped, she put the phone on the table, looked at him, "Are you done?"
"En." Liu Qianxiu entered the door, put down the documents in his hand, and took off his big white coat. The man was tall and had long legs, and the clothes inside were tailored to fit him. He stood there coldly, more dazzling than the setting sun.
Mu Wan unconsciously looked away, and she didn't come back until Liu Qianxiu walked up to her.
She stood up from her seat. Liu Qianxiu looked at her and said, "I need to take the cat to my friend first. I have an operation tomorrow and I don't have time to go there."
"Is it that friend from last time?" Mu Wan thought of Xu Xingkong, that woman with a gentle temperament and the scent of lavender.
"Um."
"Do you still have strawberry milk?" Mu Wan asked.
Liu Qianxiu didn't answer, he went directly to the desk drawer, took a box and handed it to Mu Wan, saying, "You can't drink too much on an empty stomach."
Shaking the pink box, the sweet and fragrant liquid collided in the box, Mu Wan laughed and said, "I didn't drink it myself."
She wanted to give it to Xu Xingkong, she gave her a very sweet plum last time.
The two went home to pick up the cat first, and they were already used to the car. The three little ones and Zhou Yi were very stable in the cat cage, except for the talkative big head who kept barking.
When we arrived in the southern district, the road was wide open, and the car quickly sped onto the coastal road. The sea level was stained with a layer of golden light by the setting sun, the car window was opened a little, and a gust of sea breeze broke in, making it salty, wet and cold, dispelling the heat of summer.
No wonder everyone buys a house by the sea. In addition to the fresh air, the seaside scenery is also beautiful every evening. The sea level engulfed half of the setting sun, the ripples on the sea surface were covered with golden light, and the waves were layer by layer, like epiphyllum just blooming.
Mu Wan sat in the co-pilot, looking at the sea level through Liu Qianxiu. The sunset is golden, and so is the profile of the man. Smooth forehead, high eyebrows, straight roots, straight nose, and slightly pursed thin lips.
From her point of view, his profile was like a beautiful paper-cut, pasted on the sunset sky, a little untouchable and sacred.
"Would you like to see it?" The sunset is beautiful today. Liu Qianxiu felt that her gaze had been falling outside the window, so he raised his eyes and asked lightly.
When Liu Qianxiu said this, Mu Wan's heart was moved. Even if they pass now, they can only see the last sunset of the sunset. If you send the cat and come back to see it, the sun will have disappeared long ago.
"Okay." Mu Wan agreed with a smile.
Liu Qianxiu parked the car in an open space next to the coastline. It was not the first time he came here, so he knew where the car was parked. After stopping the car, the two got out of the car and walked towards the beach.
Mu Qing doesn't like the sea much. She grew up in Xiacheng, and her mother took her to the seaside when she was a child. The school organized activities, and she often ran to the seaside.
But she has never seen such a sea now, the setting sun enters the sea, and the waves are bursting with red and golden light. The sea breeze blew up the corners of the skirt, and I stepped on the beach with bare feet. The sea water was rolling in, cool and gentle, and the sand leaked from the toes.
Mu Wan's mood was not good in the morning, but after meeting Liu Qianxiu in the afternoon, it became better and better. Whether he agreed that she could go to the Taoist temple, or the strawberry milk he handed her, or he took her to the beach to watch the sunset now...
Anything he does to her, she can be elated, and her happiness is all given by him.
The man walked in front of her. He was tall and slender. The afterglow of the setting sun elongated his shadow and fell on her body. Mu Wan raised her eyes to look at him, as if looking at a god statue that was out of reach.
The two looked at the sky quietly, and there was no communication after getting off the car, until the sunset completely disappeared and the air became cool. Liu Qianxiu stood still, looked back at Mu Wan, and said, "Let's go."
"You are in front of me." After Mu Wan agreed, her body moved away, she took a step back, and stepped into the sea water. The sea water rolled up and submerged her ankles, which was very comfortable.
The woman under the afterglow seemed to have been subjected to a thick filter, and her facial features were much brighter than before. She stood there quietly, looking up at him and smiling, even though her back was against the sky, her eyes were still shining with a dark light.
The sea breeze blows, cool and gentle.
Liu Qianxiu walked forward, stepping on the beach, making a soft sound, but there was nothing else except the sound of him stepping on the beach. Just as he slowed down and was about to turn back, he heard the sound of a woman trotting over from behind.
When you step on the beach with bare feet, the sound of sand grinding sounds much smoother.
"Liu Qianxiu!" She ran behind him, called him, then poked his back with her hand, and said, "Don't look back."
Liu Qianxiu stood still without looking back.
He was thin, but tall and big. Standing behind him, Mu Wan could smell the faint smell of disinfectant on the man's body in the salty sea breeze.
"I have a secret." Mu Wan's heartbeat rose and fell with the waves.
"What?" the man asked.
Mu Wan laughed. Looking at the man's back, she opened and closed her red lips.
Her voice was so low that the wind couldn't hear her, she just spoke with her lips.
"I secretly like you."
Liu Qianxiu turned his head.
