Song Nanchuan's itinerary was scheduled for two days later. The day before he left, he dragged Pei Ying and lingered all night.
Pei Ying accompanied him to the airport the next morning, and Song Nanchuan warned her earnestly in the waiting room: "I have set up an international package for your mobile phone, remember to call me every day."
"Oh, what if you're busy?"
"That's also more important to answer your call."
"Pfft." Pei Ying couldn't help laughing out loud, "You are so self-willed as a president."
Song Nanchuan raised his eyebrows and continued, "Remember to think of me three times a day."
Pei Ying blinked: "Can't you do it four times?"
Song Nanchuan raised the corner of his mouth and kissed her: "Of course the more the better."
A young couple was still saying goodbye, and Xiao Zhang came over under the pressure to make the scenery unpleasant: "Mr. Song, it's almost time to board the plane."
Song Nanchuan frowned slightly, and although he was reluctant to part, he let go of Pei Ying: "Then I'm leaving, take care of yourself and remember to eat on time."
Pei Ying said: "You just have to remember to eat well, don't be too busy to ignore it."
Song Nanchuan smiled: "My busiest thing every day is to miss you."
Pei Ying: "..."
Did Song always secretly eat honey this morning? mouth so sweet...
"Okay, I really want to leave, goodbye." Song Nanchuan gave her another goodbyekiss before walking towards the boarding gate with Xiao Zhang.
Pei Ying kept seeing his background disappear, and then went out alone.
When she came, Song Nanchuan's driver brought her here, and the driver was still waiting outside the airport. Seeing Pei Ying coming back, he politely asked, "Miss Pei, where are you going now?"
Pei Ying thought for a while and said, "Send me back to the apartment where I live."
"Okay." The driver replied, the car was bathed in the sun and drove towards the destination unhurriedly.
Pei Ying's cell phone rang suddenly, she took it out and looked, it was Yu Kaize who sent her a WeChat message.
Speaking of Yu Kaize, her feelings are quite complicated. When she first met him on the set of "Liuguang Nishang", she deliberately kept her distance, but Yu Kaize added her WeChat very naturally.
Judging from Yu Kaize's reputation in the circle, his intentional or unintentional showing of affection will inevitably make Pei Ying think more, but he has made the relationship between the two very suitable and will not make people feel uncomfortable.
She opened WeChat and looked at his new message.
Yu Kaize: Huanyu bought the film copyright of "Dancing in the Bright Sunshine", and is currently casting. The heroine has not yet been decided. Are you interested in participating in the audition
Pei Ying was a little surprised. Yu Kaize did say before that he would help her pay attention to the script, but after her relationship with Song Nanchuan was announced, she thought he would not help him anymore, but he didn't expect him to reveal the news to herself at the first time.
Should he be said to be emotionally intelligent, or is he surprisingly a good person
However, the movie "Dancing in the Bright Sunshine" did arouse her interest. Pei Ying doesn't usually read novels, but she has heard the name of this novel.
Nan Fengliang, the original novel of "Dancing in the Bright Sunshine", is a new romance novelist who has become popular in the past two years. She has only two published works, but both books were bestsellers and attracted a large audience.
In terms of current buzzwords, it is a big ip.
This is definitely the best resource Pei Ying has encountered in her acting career. If she can play the heroine of this movie, her fame will rise a lot at once.
She thought about it with her mobile phone, and replied to Yu Kaize: "Thank you very much for telling me this news. I will ask my agent and try my best to fight for this role."
Yu Kaize: Good.
Pei Ying looked at the "good" he sent, and wondered if she was crossing the river and demolishing the bridge by doing so? But what happened next, in every sense, she didn't want to bother him any more.
But even now, she still seems to owe someone a favor.
She thought about it for a while, and then sent a second message: "Next time we have a chance, let's ask Tao Tao to have dinner together, this time I will treat you. ^_^"
Well, although she doesn't like Tao Tao very much, she has to say that she is very useful at times like this.
Yu Kaize still only returned her one.
I didn't speculate on this young master's mind any more. Anyway, she said please have dinner and just pay back the favor. She quit WeChat and made a call to Chen Sheng.
The phone was quickly connected, and Chen Sheng asked, "Xiao Pei, what's the matter?"
Pei Ying said, "Mr. Chen, I heard that "Dancing in the Bright Sunshine" is casting a heroine. Can I participate in the audition?"
Chen Sheng was stunned for a while. The news of Huanyu's purchase of the film copyright has not been announced, and the casting is also in secret. It is planned to be announced together with the news of the filming of the novel. Where did Pei Ying hear about it
However, this line of people has personal connections. If she can get the news, she can only say that her relationship is in place... Could it be that Song Nanchuan told her? The more Chen Sheng thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and he didn't ask any more questions: "Is there such a thing, I just received the news, but Tao Tao also plans to participate in the audition for the heroine."
Pei Ying's eyes moved slightly, and Mr. Chen really only informed Tao Tao. Although she is now more famous than before, Chen Sheng is still more partial to Tao Tao.
Tao Tao is more popular than her. Chen Sheng behaved like this, but she didn't feel how unbalanced her heart was. She still asked as usual, "Can only one artist participate in the audition for a company?"
"That's not true..." Chen Sheng thought for a while, then said to her, "I heard rumors that Li Sisi would also participate in the heroine's audition. You also know that this is a big IP, and the competition is fierce... Well, I will put you and Tao Tao's information has been sent, it can be regarded as a double insurance, maybe either of you will pk Li Sisi."
"Okay, thank you Mr. Chen."
"No thanks, no thanks, the studio will screen the information first, and only after passing the interview will the time and place of the audition be notified. You wait for my news."
"Okay." After Pei Ying hung up the phone, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why she said it was a little bit was because she learned that Li Sisi would also participate in the audition. Li Sisi is a first-line actress in China, and she is also known as a goddess and goddess in the rivers and lakes. She has tens of millions of fans on Weibo.
Pei Ying felt that she could beat Li Sisi completely if she tried her best, but in terms of popularity, she was completely killed by Li Sisi.
With a light sigh, she decided not to think about it so much, and it was serious business to read the original work of "Dancing in the Bright Sunshine".
It took her two days to read the novel, and Chen Sheng also informed her at this time that she and Tao Tao had both passed the screening and could prepare for the audition.
The audition was five days later, at the Universal Building. Because the heroine of the original book is a dancer, there will inevitably be scenes of dancing in the movie.
"The director said that there will be no substitutes for the whole movie, and the actors will perform the dance scenes, so the audition in five days will let you do a dance." Chen Sheng talked to Pei Ying on the phone and sent the video to She emailed, "I have already sent you the dance you want to dance. It was made up by the dance teacher. You will all dance this section when the time comes."
"Okay." Pei Ying was also sitting in front of the computer. After receiving Chen Sheng's email, she opened it immediately. The dancing video is only a minute and a half, but it's still a challenge for someone who wasn't born a dancer.
Pei Ying glanced roughly. The dance teacher should have taken into account that most of them don't know how to dance, so the choreography is mainly based on basic movements, but the interspersed movements in circles are still quite difficult.
"The director of this film is Yi Feiyue. He is a famous turtle in the circle. You have to learn this dance carefully, and it will definitely serve as an important reference."
"Okay, I will." Pei Ying, the famous name of Yi Feiyue and Yi Dao, has long heard of it, because he is demanding about his work, and it can even be said to be a little harsh. Some people jokingly call him Qiao Yichen in the film industry.
"Well, your MV just finished filming, so let's focus on learning dance these few days. I found a dance teacher, and someone can teach you faster."
"Ah, then thank you, Mr. Chen."
"The dance teacher is here these days. You and Tao Tao will come over when you have time."
"Oh well."
Here, Pei Ying is in full swing preparing for the audition for the new film. Song Nanchuan, who is far abroad, is also progressing step by step.
I had a meeting with my partner in the morning, and it didn't end until 1:00 in the afternoon. Song Nanchuan came out of the conference room and asked Xiao Zhang to sort out all the minutes of the meeting just now, and he still had to study it.
Xiao Zhang knew that he was working so hard on all the time because he wanted to finish things as soon as possible and return to China to see Pei Ying as soon as possible. But working without eating or drinking like this, my body can't stand it.
Since the cause was Pei Ying, he could only sacrifice Pei Ying to suppress him: "Mr. Song, Miss Pei specifically told you to eat well when you were leaving."
Song Nanchuan: "..."
He lowered his eyes and smiled, looked at Xiao Zhang and asked, "If I don't eat, are you still going to make a snitch with her?"
"Don't dare." Xiao Zhang lowered his head and acted obediently.
Song Nanchuan still smiled and walked towards the elevator: "Come on, let's have lunch, the restaurant should not be closed yet."
He and Xiao Zhang went to a western restaurant that they used to go to. At this time, it was almost closed. Because Song Nanchuan and the boss were old acquaintances, the kitchen continued to serve him.
"Today's main dish is lobster with American sauce." Song Nanchuan's dish was served by the chef himself. He and Song Nanchuan have known each other for many years, and he is also Song Nanchuan's favorite chef.
"Thank you." Song Nanchuan took a knife and fork and took a sip, his eyes suddenly changed, "As expected of the ace main dish among lobsters, Yingying..."
He raised his head subconsciously, wanting Pei Ying to have a quick taste, but suddenly found that there was no one on the opposite side.
Xiao Zhang pretended that he didn't hear anything, and continued to sit quietly beside him, as if he didn't exist.
After Song Nanchuan realized that he was abroad, his eyes gradually dimmed, and even the lobster on the plate seemed to have no appetite.
The chef stood aside for unknown reasons and saw that he suddenly stopped, thinking that there was something wrong with his dish: "Mr. Song, is there something wrong with the lobster?"
Song Nanchuan looked up and smiled at him: "No, it's delicious."
It was so delicious that he wanted to share it with Pei Ying.
He took a photo and sent it to Pei Ying: "The lobster I ate at noon today tasted very good. Next time I bring you to eat it, you will definitely like it."
When Pei Ying got up at 7:30 in the morning, she realized that Song Nanchuan had sent herself a photo of a lobster just after one o'clock in the morning.
Pei Ying: "..."
Newspapers early in the morning.
But this lobster looks really good.
The day Song Nanchuan left, she added the time in New York to the world clock on her phone. Seeing that it was just after seven o'clock in the afternoon in New York, she made a phone call with confidence.
The phone rang, and Song Nanchuan picked it up: "Yingying, do you miss me?"
Pei Ying wrinkled her nose and said, "I saw your lobster when I woke up early in the morning. I really miss you so much."
Song Nanchuan laughed twice: "Next time, I'll bring you to eat together and play around by the way."
"… Humph."
"It's only after seven o'clock in the morning on your side. You got up so early? Is there a new job?"
"Yeah." Speaking of this, Pei Ying became energized. "There is a movie with a big IP, and the heroine is being selected. I am going to participate in the audition. I will go to the company for a dance class this morning."
"dancing class?"
"Well, this heroine is a dancer, and the director wants to test us to dance."
"I see."
Pei Ying sat up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom: "Then I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to the company for class."
"Okay, remember to have breakfast." Song Nanchuan said, and kissed the phone again.
When Pei Ying heard the "chirp" coming from there, her whole face suddenly flushed red.
After having breakfast and going downstairs to feed the cat, Pei Ying took a taxi to the studio as always.
The morning class actually didn't start until nine o'clock. After she arrived at the dance studio ahead of time, she first warmed up and tried to dance with the video.
When it was almost nine o'clock, Tao Tao also came. Pei Ying nodded to her as a greeting, and continued to stretch her muscles and bones.
Tao Tao, like Pei Ying today, wore a sports vest and sweatpants. She walked to Pei Ying's side and stretched her muscles like her: "Pei Pei, did you President Song go abroad recently?"
Pei Ying's eyes flashed, and she said calmly, "Well, he said that he has something to deal with abroad."
"Oh." Tao Tao responded and turned to look at her, "Song is always the major shareholder of Huanyu, have you heard anything from him?"
"What wind?"
"For example, has the heroine of "Dancing" already decided on Li Sisi?"
Pei Ying changed one foot and stretched, looking up at her. What she wanted to ask was not only whether Li Sisi was appointed by default, but also whether she was also appointed by Song Nanchuan
She smiled at Tao Tao and said, "Although Song Nanchuan is a major shareholder of Huanyu, he still has his own company, and he basically doesn't have time to ask about Huanyu."
What she said was not false at all, Song Nanchuan's own company's affairs were enough for him to be busy, and he threw 2 billion from Huanyu's side, and seldom intervened.
"Oh, that's it." Tao Tao responded, not knowing how much she believed.
Soon the dance teacher came. After she got the video yesterday, she worked overtime to learn it. Today, she split it up to explain it to Pei Ying and Tao Tao.
Having a teacher to teach is indeed much faster than learning from the video. Pei Ying danced with the video for one night yesterday, and didn't even finish the first 30 seconds of the movements. Today, I learned from the teacher and went through all the movements in an hour. .
"This dance is not very difficult, but it is not easy for people without dance skills. The key is to practice more, increase familiarity and pay attention to details." The teacher explained while correcting Pei Ying and Tao Tao. Actions.
After a day's class, Pei Ying could barely memorize all the movements, but to dance well, she had to practice as the teacher said.
Tao Tao had other work in the afternoon, so she left after three o'clock. After Pei Ying finished her class, she had dinner and rested for a while, then went to the dance studio to continue her practice.
She danced in front of the mirror several times, but occasionally she would forget a few movements, and she had to watch the video again to remember it. But this is not the hardest part. The hardest part is the circles in the dance. She can't turn at all right now.
She intends to challenge this project again after she has practiced other movements proficiently.
Before I knew it, I practiced until nine o'clock, and the street lights outside were all turned on. Pei Ying packed her things and went out to take a taxi home.
The taxi still put her down on the side of the road. Pei Ying got out of the car and walked a few steps towards the gate of the community. In a trance, she saw a man standing under the tree.
She frowned inadvertently, and tried her best to walk to a place with brighter lights. When she passed the tree, she took a special look, and there was indeed a strange man standing under the tree. He was not tall and wore a black coat and white sneakers.
She quickened her pace and walked past the tree, only to find that the man seemed to be following behind her.
The community she lives in is considered a semi-open community. Although there are guards at the entrance, they are usually mainly responsible for collecting express delivery, and they will not register people entering and leaving.
Pei Ying heard the footsteps closely behind her, and couldn't help but walk faster. The man followed until the downstairs of the unit where she lived, and then stopped.
Pei Ying rushed upstairs almost in one breath.
After locking the door, she still had some lingering fears. Was that person following her just now? Or is she thinking too much? The news of single white-collar women being followed by perverts came to mind one by one, and Pei Ying scared herself a lot.
She took a sip of water and was startled, then went to the windows and locked them all.
The night passed without any danger, and the next day she still went to the dance studio early in the morning to practice dancing.
Because the man under the tree yesterday left her a psychological shadow, she left early today, and it was almost eight o'clock when she got home.
But last night the man was still standing under the tree.
Pei Ying's vigilance was suddenly raised to the highest level. There are several kinds of makeup sprays in her bag, and she recalled where they were stored, thinking about taking them out and spraying them in each other's eyes in an emergency.
She lowered her head slightly and tried not to make eye contact with the other person, but when she passed by the tree, she heard the man suddenly giggling twice.
Pei Ying was so frightened that her heart almost jumped out, she ran forward quickly, and went straight to the gate guard pavilion of the community. There was only a middle-aged woman in the guard booth. She was watching TV. Seeing Pei Ying coming in, she looked at her unhappily: "What are you doing? Are you taking a courier?"
"No." Pei Ying took a breath and glanced outside. The man was still standing under the tree, looking in her direction. Pei Ying quickly looked back and said to the middle-aged woman, "I don't know the man under the tree. He seems to be following me. Don't let him in."
"Following you?" The middle-aged woman glanced under the tree, then turned to Pei Ying and said, "That person was standing there a long time ago, he was waiting for someone."
"No..." Pei Ying pursed her lips, and after meeting her impatient eyes, she swallowed all the unspoken words.
Forget it, if this person is still there tomorrow, she will go to the police directly.
She returned home and locked the doors and windows as carefully as yesterday. Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the phone rang suddenly.
Pei Ying was so frightened that she almost called out. She hurriedly took out her mobile phone and saw that it was Song Nanchuan's call.
She stabilized her mind and answered the phone: "Chuanchuan."
Song Nanchuan on the other end of the phone was silent for a second, then asked, "What happened to you? Why does your voice sound a bit wrong?"
Pei Ying was about to blurt out that a strange man was following her, but when the words came to her lips, she held back. Song Nanchuan is now abroad and can't come back right away. She told him this, only to make him worry. And he should be very busy with work, and she didn't want to burden him any more.
She smiled and said, "I've been practicing dance for the past two days, and I'm very tired."
Song Nanchuan said solemnly, "You don't have to work so hard. You are the president's woman. I said I will support you."
Pei Ying was amused by his words: "You speak like a CEO now."
Song Nanchuan laughed twice: "Are you happier now?"
"Um!"
"But it's true that I support you, don't toss yourself too tired, you know?"
"Know it."
"I should be back in two days. I'll bring you back any gift you want."
"Well..." Pei Ying thought for a while, "What's there?"
Song Nanchuan said: "All kinds of brand-name bags, brand-name clothes and brand-name shoes, do I have a set for you?"
"Hahahaha good." Pei Ying couldn't help laughing, it sounded so cool.
Song Nanchuan followed her and laughed: "Okay, since you're tired, go to bed earlier and have a good dream." At the end, he added, "It's better to have me."
Pei Ying smiled and said, "Okay, good night, Chuanchuan. Hey, no, I should say good morning to you at your time."
Song Nanchuan chuckled: "Okay, go to sleep, baby Yingying."
"Okay, baby Chuanchuan." Pei Ying hung up the phone, and all the anxiety and apprehension disappeared.
On the third day of practicing dance, Song Nanchuan walked on the fifth day.
After repeated practice for the first two days, Pei Ying was already familiar with the dance moves. Although there were still some movements that were not well done, she still had to start to challenge the movement in circles.
Today, the teacher also mainly talked to her about some tricks of turning circles, and has been pointing her by the side.
Tao Tao came only in the afternoon today and left after dancing for two hours. Pei Ying didn't care about her either, and continued to rotate in front of the mirror.
Originally, she felt that she had slowly found the feeling, but it may be that the long-term practice made her legs weaker, and she was bruised a little inadvertently.
"Hi." Pei Ying let out a pained cry and walked slowly to the wall to sit down. The ankle is a little red and swollen, and I don't feel anything when I don't move, but as long as I exert force, I feel a dull pain.
Seeing that her foot was injured, the teacher helped her check it: "Fortunately, the injury is not serious, and it should be fine with an ice compress."
"Yeah." Pei Ying tried to move a bit, worried about whether she would be able to dance the day after tomorrow.
"Go back to rest today. It should be better tomorrow. Don't dance again today."
"Okay." Pei Ying got up slowly, packed her things and left. In order to ensure that she can dance the day after tomorrow, she still went to the hospital for a look before taking a taxi home.
What she didn't expect was that even though it was still dark, the strange man was standing under the tree.
