Lin Yue tidied up the room in person and put on the kettle and toiletries that she brought, but she didn't see Ji Youyan's figure, so she opened the door suspiciously to look for it.
"Miss Ji?"
Ji Youyan was washing cups and utensils in the dining room, she heard the sound, carefully put the washed cups and dishes back in their original positions, and then walked slowly to her bedroom.
"Sister Ji, why do your eyes seem a little red?" Lin Yue looked at Ji Youyan and asked with concern.
Ji Youyan's movement of closing the door froze slightly, then paced around the bedroom environment, and answered her calmly: "Maybe an eyelash just fell into my eye, I rubbed it a few times, and it took a long time to get it out. ."
"Oh." Lin Yue didn't think much about it.
She walked back to the bathroom separated by a glass door, washed the wash basin with hot water, and said intimately, "Sister Ji, I'm going to stay for a long time this time, so I've changed the bedding to my own, if you're tired If so, you can rest assured for a while."
Ji Youyan took off his coat, sat on the edge of the bed, closed his eyes and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work."
Running all the way, forced to smile, she was really tired. Unfortunately, she can only hide here to catch her breath, and soon, she will wear a mask and go out to meet people.
"Sister Ji, Teacher Jing... Was it the same with you before?" Lin Yue was not someone who could hold back her words, so she couldn't help but ask out the doubts that had been lingering in her heart from the beginning.
"Why do you ask that all of a sudden?" Ji Youyan turned her head and asked instead.
Lin Yue washed the washbasin and started to wash the toilet, and said honestly, "I think what Assistant Yao said seems a little false. Teacher Jing opened the door for the first time and the second time, and he wore the same clothes, except for shoes. They're all neat and tidy, and they don't look like they just got up from the bed."
She has followed Ji Youyan for more than a year, and she knows very well that Ji Youyan suffered a lot of slights before winning the White Oak Vision. Things like today are not unheard of. Jingxiu and Yao Xiao sang together, and it seemed that they were deliberately bullying others with their gestures.
She turned to Ji Youyan wholeheartedly, and naturally felt some injustice for Ji Youyan, and reminded: "Sister Ji, do you need to reconsider the relationship between you and Teacher Jing."
Ji Youyan's usual smile gradually disappeared from the corner of his lips. Even if she didn't want to admit it, she had to face it, her lie was ruthlessly exposed.
She lowered her eyes and was silent for a while, then slowly sat up, looked at Lin Yue, and said solemnly, "Yueyue, Teacher Jing is different from others."
"If she has something rude to me, it must be because I have not done well enough in the past or now. You must remember this. I don't want to bring it to her because of me. any bad influence."
Lin Yue froze and was frightened by Ji Youyan's rare seriousness. She pursed her lips, a little aggrieved, and a little sadly agreed: "I know, Sister Ji, I won't talk nonsense outside. I've never... "
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Ji Yuyan touching her hair.
"Of course I know that Yueyue is the most tight-lipped, so I can tell you everything with confidence."
Ji Youyan squatted down beside her, pulled the towel in her hand naturally, helped dry the water marks on the toilet seat, and said gently: "Also, Mr. Jing is only cold-faced and warm-hearted, you contact her You'll know after a while."
As if to be more convincing, Ji Youyan added: "Look, you can't guess. In fact, when you were in the room, Mr. Jing also prepared hot milk tea and cake for me to eat." She put her hands together , showed a playful smile, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Yueyue, I'm eating alone."
Lin Yue was so gently comforted by her, and there was no grievance she could let go. She pursed her lips and smiled, and followed the steps given by Ji Youyan: "What kind of cake, is it delicious?"
"Black Forest Cake, isn't it... delicious." Ji Youyan recalled the bitterness in his mouth just now, and unconsciously frowned.
Lin Yue said "Puchi" and said bluntly, "Don't Teacher Jing know your taste, Sister Ji?"
Ji Youyan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but after realizing it, he became suspicious: Oh yes, what even Yao Xiao remembers, Jingxiu really didn't mean it
But before she had time to think about it, the phone in her bedside purse rang.
Ji Youyan got up and went out to answer the phone. After saying a few words, he agreed and opened the closet.
Seeing this, Lin Yue tacitly helped her close the curtain of the glass door and retreated to the bathroom.
Sure enough, after hanging up the phone, Ji Youyan picked out a long skirt and windbreaker that the stylist had already helped her put together, and went into the bathroom. While changing her clothes, she vented with Lin Yue: "Yueyue, I'll go down with Sister Wei and the others to continue what they just didn't say, and have dinner with the director and investors in the evening. After you're done, you can have a good meal in the evening. Go for a walk, I'm fine here."
Lin Yue asked worriedly, "Don't I need to pick you up?" She thought of Ji Youyan's appearance when she was drinking at a dinner party before, as if she was facing a great enemy.
"No, with Sister Wei here, don't worry." Ji Youyan said confidently. Moreover, her eyes became softer and softer: "Mr. Jing is also here."
Lin Yue had no worries, nodded and accepted the arrangement. It wasn't until long after Ji Youyan left that she remembered that she forgot to tell Sister Ji not to be in a hurry to drink, and to eat something to pamper her stomach first.
She took out her mobile phone and wanted to send a message to Ji Youyan, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came: Teacher Jing, it seems that she has already helped her with her stomach, eh
Is it a coincidence
Lin Yue touched her nose and put down her phone with suspicion.
Ji Youyan left the bedroom, looked at the door on the opposite side that was still closed, hesitated for a moment, and went straight out.
Let Axiu take a break for a while, socializing at dinner is boring enough.
Back in the conference hall again, the other two mentors, Su Lihang and Liang Zhen, have also arrived. Seeing that the situation was inconvenient, Ji Youyan was afraid that it would make Jingxiu more and more dark, so he did not specifically explain it to Chen Desheng, and a few people turned to the discussion of the tutor's script and other related processes at the opening.
After a while, the sky was completely dark outside the bright glass window. Chen Desheng answered the phone and greeted him sophistically: "Look, I almost forgot the time when I was busy. Lao Zhou has arranged it, come here, these are not in a hurry, it's important to pick up the wind and wash the dust for a few teachers, we Let's go eat first."
So everyone tacitly said a few polite words and then moved their positions.
The restaurant is located in a well-known private restaurant in the circle. It is about a ten-minute drive from the hotel, which is very elegant and secluded. When Ji Youyan and his party arrived, there were already a few men in suits and leather shoes and two young men and women who were chatting and laughing with the men beside them.
Ji Youyan glanced at them and recognized that the two were two of the last six people left on the show in the previous life.
It's no wonder that these two were able to hold on to the group ridicule until the end. Ji Yuyan laughed in his heart.
She has been in the circle for many years, and she is no longer the cynical little girl who just came out of the ivory tower. She began to take it easy on these pickled things in the circle.
Obviously, everyone around him is so numb. Everyone pretended to exchange a few words and took their seats one by one.
Ji Youyan didn't see Jingxiu.
Just when Ji Youyan was guessing whether Jingxiu would not come to the dinner, Jingxiu finally came late with Yao Xiao.
She walked in dragging her long skirt, and took a seat in the vacant seat next to Ji Yuyan on the chair that the waiter helped her pull away.
"I'm sorry, I'm late." Jingxiu brushed the broken hair next to her ear, revealing the slender earrings, elegant and calm.
However, she said sorry words, but there was no sincere apology on her face. Before he even smiled, he had already made Liu Gong Fendai colorless. Ji Youyan was inexplicably pleased with Jingxiu's calmness and arrogance, and couldn't help but secretly glanced at it and then glanced at it again.
"It's the evening rush hour now, and traffic jams are common. Xiaoxiu, are you walking from the viaduct?" In the stagnant atmosphere, Chen Fei, who was sitting in the main seat and represented the main investor Xinhu Technology, spoke, and consciously helped Jingxiu Make up for the reason for being late.
Jingxiu smiled lightly. Yao Xiao, who was sitting beside her, flattered her in a sensible way: "Mr. Chen's expectations are as good as God, we set off early, but I didn't expect to be blocked there for a long time."
She paused for a moment, stood up and poured the wine for everyone at the table, and then smiled: "I'm sorry I chose the wrong route for everyone to wait for a long time, our sister Jing has a bad stomach and is inconvenient to drink, so let me replace her. I'll punish everyone by myself, and apologize to everyone." After speaking, she raised her glass and drank it.
There are two slightly younger investors who have not dealt with this circle for a long time, and only know that Jingxiu is a young actress who has become famous in recent years. They thought that Jingxiu's late arrival was just because the actor took Qiao to raise his price, but after watching the new and mutual Chen Fei's attitude, they quietly changed their minds - it seems that this woman can't be easily molested.
Fortunately, Jingxiu also gave them face on the surface. They couldn't figure out the truth of Jingxiu, and they wanted to sell Fade Chen's face, so they didn't dare to ask Jingxiu to apologize. Seeing that Yao Xiao punished himself for a cup, one of the investors went down the slope and called out "Okay", slick and embarrassed: "This little girl is bold, but everyone said, is a cup enough?"
"Not enough, why do you want three cups?" Another potbellied man next to him agreed.
"President Pan, you're bullying the little girl. People haven't eaten anything yet, so take pity on her." Wei Yizhen personally helped Ji Youyan adjust the tableware, and then jokingly helped Yao Xiao out of the siege.
"Yes, Lao Pan, you are bullying people. Well, if you want to see the little girl drinking, I will ask Xiaoliu to offer you a few more drinks." The man near Lao Pan patted the young girl beside him , the girl immediately cooperated and squeezed out a soft and charming smile.
Chen Fei raised his chopsticks and greeted: "Okay, let's eat while we talk, the dishes are getting cold. Try this boss's craftsmanship, he doesn't cook easily, but it took me a lot of effort. Please move."
"Oh? Then I'll have to try it out." Someone complied.
Talking, laughing, eating and drinking, the fact that Jingxiu was late was over. During the banquet, Chen Fei toasted, Jingxiu replaced the wine with tea, and the others were all human beings. Seeing that Chen Fei did not force it, no one dared to ask Jingxiu to drink.
After a dinner party, most of the topics related to and unrelated to the show were centered on Ji Youyan and the other two mentors. At the whole table, Jingxiu was the most isolated and most comfortable eating.
Ji Youyan drank the bitter wine in his mouth again, feeling a little warm.
Although Wei Yizhen helped her block a lot, Ji Youyan took care of her friendship with Wei Yizhen in the previous life, and was embarrassed to see her working hard to socialize alone, but she still took a lot of them in person.
The stomach seems to have some discomfort. Ji Youyan found an excuse and ducked out to take a breath.
Standing in the bathroom stall, she couldn't help but sigh, fortunately their Jingxiu was good enough and confident enough to not have to endure these bad habits she's had enough of.
In the last life, why didn't she know how to think from a different angle? Or, once changed, but then forgot
She froze in place for a moment, sighed deeply, and pushed away the partition.
Unexpectedly, when she looked up after going out, she saw Jingxiu with his back to her next to the sink, washing his hands slowly.
Hearing the voice from behind, Jingxiu paused, raised his eyes slightly, and looked at Ji Youyan indifferently through the mirror.
Ji Youyan couldn't help showing genuine tenderness, stepped forward and stood beside Jingxiu, and said softly, "Are you coming out to take a breath too?"
In the mirror, Jingxiu looked away and withdrew his hand from under the faucet. She took out a tissue to wipe her hands, then lifted it aside to dry, never uttering a word.
Just when Ji Youyan embarrassedly thought that Jingxiu would not answer, Jingxiu suddenly turned his head to the side again, and the corners of his lips raised a somewhat mocking arc.
"I've often heard that Teacher Ji is good at dancing with long sleeves and is not drunk with a thousand cups, but today he really lives up to his reputation." Jingxiu said lukewarmly.
Ji Youyan's smile froze immediately.
The author has something to say: the water in Jijie's brain in the last life will become the tears shed by her chasing wife in this life.
Ji Youyan asked for help online: Who will help me translate what Axiu means? o(╥﹏╥)o
