On the plane, Jingxiu clasped his hands tightly in front of him.
That was her unconscious action when she was nervous. Yao Xiao felt distressed for her: "Mr. Jing, sleep for a while. Jiren has a natural look, and Mr. Lin will be fine."
In order to meet Ji Youyan, Jingxiu has been traveling to several cities at home and abroad for the past few days almost non-stop, giving himself no time to rest at all. She ran around with Jingxiu, and she was exhausted. Yesterday, she slept in the dark before feeling like she was alive. But as soon as she saw Jingxiu today and heard her hoarse voice, she knew that Sister Ji must have been beastly again last night! I definitely didn't let Mr. Jing rest well.
Jingxiu forcefully pulled the corners of his lips towards Yao Xiao, "En."
She leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, her thoughts were confused.
This should not have happened. My grandfather had been seriously ill a few years ago, so he paid special attention to health preservation, guarded against impatience and anger, and has always been well controlled. Although Tao Xingruo didn't make it clear on the phone, she could still hear that the reason for the quarrel between her grandfather and her uncle had something to do with her previous grievances with Xiao Die.
How big a tornado does the flapping of a butterfly's wings bring about? Jingxiu was flustered, and she was the one who implicated the old man.
After arriving in Beicheng, she contacted Tao Xingruo to ask for the latest situation after getting off the plane. Tao Xingruo said that she was waiting for her outside the airport, and reassured her that Lin Zhaoyuan sent her to the doctor in time, and her blood pressure and angina were relieved. The doctor said that there is a sign of a stroke, and he needs to be hospitalized and recuperated.
Jingxiu breathed a sigh of relief and went out of the airport to take Tao Xingruo's car directly to the hospital.
"What's wrong with your voice?" Tao Xingruo wanted to ask on the phone.
Jingxiu cleared his throat unnaturally, and said lightly, "Maybe I have a cold."
Tao Xingruo didn't suspect him, but just wanted to care about her, when he turned his head and suddenly found an ambiguous red mark behind her ear that was hard to detect. She thought to herself, "You came from Cal City?"
"Um."
"Yu Yan seems to be over there too?" She raised her eyebrows and deceived Jingxiu.
Jingxiu bit her lip and didn't answer immediately, Tao Xingruo knew it. She teased in a brisk tone: "Is it the cold that Yu Yan passed on to you?"
Jingxiu's ears began to turn red visibly. She changed the subject and said, "You didn't make it clear on the phone just now, what happened?"
When Tao Xingruo talked about business, his mood sank again. "I heard that my grandfather has been arranging for Xiao Di to take the bait all this time, and he will close the net soon. It turns out that the uncle Yang Fengyin violated the rules and pierced the net first."
"After my grandfather found out, he called my uncle to the study. I didn't know what the uncle said, and the father and son started quarreling. Then the grandfather was so angry that he threw the teacup on the uncle, and the uncle also got angry and turned to leave. Before leaving the door, my grandfather collapsed while clutching his heart."
Jingxiu pursed her lips, full of self-blame.
Tao Xingruo saw her thoughts and comforted her: "Don't think too much, it has nothing to do with you. Grandpa and uncle have accumulated a lot of conflicts over the past few years, especially in the past six months, uncle has seen the family neglected. , I began to have the idea of opening a new door and leaving a retreat. The matter of Xiao Die can only be regarded as a fuse. "
"Xiuxiu, the Lin family..." Before she could finish her sentence, she said euphemistically, "I heard Yizhen's feedback during this period, and I feel that it is not as convenient for Jiang Chun to handle things as before. You should prepare yourself mentally."
Jingxiu closed his eyes slightly, and gave an almost inaudible "um". She also noticed some of these things during this time.
It was late at night when we got to the hospital. It was quiet in the corridor, and a middle-aged man leaned on the seat and was half asleep.
Hearing footsteps, the man followed the sound and looked over. Seeing that it was Tao Xingruo and Jingxiu, he frowned.
"Uncle." Jingxiu nodded and greeted politely and distantly.
Lin Wenxun nodded back to her, opened his mouth to say something, but held back. He gestured to smoke, got up and left.
Tao Xingruo said that his grandfather refused to see him after he woke up, so he could only stay outside the ward. She pushed open the door of the ward and saw that there was only a small lamp by the bedside in the ward. The old man was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
The two were hesitating whether to go in or not, when the old man suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the door.
"Xiuxiu, are you here?" The old man said weakly, raising his arms as if to get up.
Jingxiu and Tao Xingruo hurriedly stepped forward, one supported the old man to half sit up, and the other adjusted the angle of the hospital bed so that the old man could lie down comfortably. Tao Xingruo went out to call her mother to report her safety, Jingxiu sat on the edge of the old man's bed, and asked in a soft voice, "Grandpa, are you still feeling bad?"
Lin Zhaoyuan said indifferently: "It's all right, it's all an old problem."
"I'm sorry, I made my grandfather tired." She said guiltily.
Lin Zhaoyuan's calloused hand patted Jingxiu's, shook his head and said, "What nonsense." After speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and sighed a long time, "It's my grandfather who is old..."
"It's old, it's useless..." People said that the tree fell and the hozen was scattered, but he didn't expect that even his own son would do the same.
This is the first time Jingxiu has seen Lin Zhaoyuan showing such a frustrated old state. She was sad and shook her head and said, "Wherever it is, it is said that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure. Grandpa, you just need to rest."
Lin Zhaoyuan smiled and said, "Our Xiuxiu Chinese is getting more and more authentic." After laughing, he sank his eyes again, and said in a low voice, "Xiuxiu, what Grandpa promised you, I missed the appointment." After planning for a long time, he realized It turned out that he had been kept in the dark by his son. Lin Wenxiang has no backbone, and he doesn't want to offend the Xiao family at all, and he doesn't want to make trouble again. He said that the Lin family is not as good as it used to be, and there is a line of human affection, and it will be easy to see each other in the future. It's time to make plans for the future. He is more than enough now.
Jingxiu couldn't see the embarrassment of the old man when he said that he was going to miss the appointment, and said sensible: "Nothing. Grandpa, I am very satisfied that Xiao Die can get the punishment now."
She gave an example: "Grandpa, do you remember? Five years ago, it was also during the same period of canvassing for same-sex unions. Xiao Die stood on the opponent's side and fought with me for several times in the open and secret, and he got angry with me several times. But this time , you can see that he doesn't dare to make a sound at all, saving me a lot of energy."
The old man was coaxed into his heart by her, and he nodded her nose lovingly and said, "You..."
He has always been paying attention to Jingxiu's voice, and praised: "Your uncles are timid and do not know who they are. You have a temperament like your mother, and you are resolute and determined." Although Jing Shurong and He doesn't kiss, but because he owes Jing Shurong and her mother, and because Jing Shurong has the most similar character to him, he has always preferred this daughter the most in his heart. He loves Wu and Wu, and among his grandchildren, he also loves Jingxiu the most.
But he changed his words and said earnestly: "But Xiuxiu, there is nothing wrong with being brave, but you must also remember to protect yourself. Grandpa is reluctant to let you be wronged."
Jingxiu widened the old man's heart and said, "Grandpa, I'm not wronged. It's impossible to be perfect in life. I can get the one I want the most, and I'm already content."
Gains and losses are up to others, joys and sorrows are up to oneself.
Lin Zhaoyuan was both admiring and helpless: "Just like people so much? Is it worth it?"
Suddenly being pierced, Jingxiu's eyes twitched, and a look of shame appeared on his face.
Lin Zhaoyuan said lovingly, "Okay, if you feel happy yourself, Grandpa is happy for you too."
"However, grandpa wants to vaccinate you. Even if the draft is passed, there is still a long way to go before the overall concept of society will change. So this road is difficult to walk, not to mention that you are standing like this with her. In a conspicuous position, you have to bear more than others. You have to be really prepared, weigh the pros and cons, and think more about yourself and her in the future. You are not wronged, and you must not let her be wronged. "
"If possible, Grandpa hopes that he can help you pave the way, but Grandpa may..." Before he finished speaking, Tao Xingruo came back from the phone call, and Lin Zhaoyuan stopped his depression.
The grandfather and grandson talked for a while, it was getting late, Lin Zhaoyuan should rest, Tao Xingruo and Jingxiu left.
On the way back, Jingxiu was silent. She understood what Grandpa had not said.
The loss of the Lin family and the opposition of Ji Youyan's parents made her more and more aware of how embarrassed and sad Ji Youyan was in the past.
"Tao, you said, I will no longer renew the contract with Guangyu, is it feasible to bring Jiang Chun out to set up a studio?" Jingxiu said softly.
Tao Xingruo said in surprise, "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
"Because I have to leave a way out." Jingxiu's face was faint and firm in the moving light and shadow. She can ignore herself, but she can't ignore Ji Yuyan.
Tao Xingruo was moved. She knew that Jingxiu's original intention was purely to make a good show. This was what she liked and it was also her artistic pursuit. Even a pure idealist like Jingxiu has begun to learn to compromise with reality.
"It's feasible." With the contacts Jiang Chun and Jingxiu have accumulated in the circle over the years, Jiang Chun's execution ability, Jingxiu's vision and reputation, whether it is signing new people, making films or investing in films, the prospects are very promising.
"However, after setting up a studio, you don't just need to film." Tao Xingruo reminded her.
"I know." Jingxiu said calmly. This plan has been under consideration since she met Ji Yuyan's parents. If one day she and Ji Youyan make public what they must endure, then she can at least make up for Ji Youyan's career loss and win more opportunities for her when she turns behind the scenes.
A pop-up window popped up on the phone, it was Ji Youyan's WeChat message after the night show.
She wrote poetry artistically: If I had not seen the sun, I could have endured the darkness.
When Jingxiu saw her news, his expression softened.
She returned a string of ellipses coldly.
Ji Youyan replied in seconds: If I hadn't hugged Xiuxiu, I could have put up with pandas.
The attached picture is a "desolate.jpg" with a dog wrapped in a quilt.
"I can't sleep alone." Ji You said pitifully.
The corners of Jingxiu's lips suddenly overflowed with a smile.
Tao Xingruo said clearly: "Yu Yan is looking for you?"
"Um."
Seeing her sincerely happy appearance, Tao Xingruo dissipated all his dissatisfaction with Ji Youyan and revealed, "Speaking of the studio, Yizhen also tested my tone a few days ago."
Hearing Wei Yizhen's name, Jingxiu paid some attention to Tao Xingruo's words.
"Yi Zhen is not very satisfied that Yu Yan regards you as more important than her career, but she appreciates Yu Yan as a person, so after weighing, she hopes to carry out a new form of in-depth cooperation with Ran Wen, and wants to establish a partnership with Yu Yan. Studio, and then signed a contract with Ran Wen in the form of an artist studio. In this way, we can share resources, and as a partner, Yizhen can continue to lead Yu Yan, and at the same time, he can also lead other artists.”
"It can make Yizhen worry so much about her love brain, this time I see Yu Yan's sincerity towards you." Tao Xingruo joked.
"She's not a love brain." Jingxiu couldn't help but defend sweetly. "She just takes care of her career and life."
She listened to Tao Xingruo's affirmation of Ji Youyan, and watched Ji Youyan's coquettish and cute message on WeChat last year, and she felt an unprecedented sense of solidity in her heart.
Yanyan no longer allows her to fight alone in her wishful thinking as before.
She fought side by side with her, working with her for their future.
