Apart from "Returning to the Garden", Song Yu has no other work arrangements for the time being.
Although there is no plan to film, as an actor, Song Yu has a high degree of self-consciousness in maintaining his weight and figure. Moreover, exercise and fitness can improve anxiety to a certain extent and help the treatment of depression, so he arranges the rest days very regularly.
Every morning, he would do an hour of aerobic exercise in the gym on the second floor, and then take a shower and go downstairs. At this time, Zhou Yanqing had just made breakfast.
The unhealthy breakfast of a boiled egg and a cup of coffee in the past was replaced by a Chinese and Western breakfast with different patterns. Song Yu also quit coffee and drank healthy drinks such as fruit juice, soy milk, and milk.
After breakfast, the two went to change their clothes, and then set off for the company together.
There is nothing specific to do in the company. Song Yu read the financial statements since the establishment of the studio. Because there is no investment expenditure, the accounts are clear at a glance, and there is no problem.
In the past two days, Meng Shiping came to the company in the morning to stay for a while and then took Gao Lei out, because Song Yu asked him to contact Gao Tong.
The first TV series Song Yu filmed after entering the circle was to collaborate with Gao Tong. At that time, Gao Tong was well-known for his acting skills and was a first-class actor in the circle.
A year ago, Gao Tong's ex-wife posted a post on Weibo to report Gao Tong's marital infidelity and domestic violence. In just one week, the overwhelming public opinion caused Gao Tong's career to plummet, and the brands and producers terminated his contracts one after another. Even though Gaotong Company quickly responded to the matter through the police investigation and released various evidences that the ex-wife’s so-called cheating and domestic violence were rumors and forged, but Gaotong’s career did not cheer up.
It is the common people's favorite drama that a high-ranking person falls into the clouds, so how can he help him up the branch again
When filming back then, Gao Tong gave Song Yu a lot of advice, and Song Yu always treated him as half a teacher.
When Gao Tong was caught in a domestic violence scandal in his previous life, Song Yu didn't have the idea of signing an artist, so he only introduced a few plays to Gao Tong, and later signed Gao Tong after signing Han Jin. In this life, all plans were advanced, Song Yu simply asked Meng Shiping to contact Gao Tong in advance.
At noon, someone knocked on the door of the office, and it was Zhou Yanqing who came to deliver lunch.
The company has meal subsidies, but as long as Song Yu is in the company, Monica will order meals for the employees, and these days are no exception.
Song Yu was used to sitting at the same dining table with Zhou Yanqing to eat, and eating alone made him feel that something was missing. He wanted to ask Zhou Yanqing to stay and eat together, but before he could speak, he closed the door and left.
Song Yu laughed, he pushed open the door of his office to call Zhou Yanqing, but there was no one outside.
Where did you go? Could it be that Zhou Yanqing was eating outside with other people
Song Yu knew that the people in the company were more or less afraid of him, so he seldom walked around the public area in the company. After hesitating for a while, Song Yu opened the door and walked out. In the small cafe, there are several people chatting and eating around the small table, and there are no assistants.
Frowning unconsciously, Song Yu paused and walked towards the front desk.
Sure enough, Song Yu heard Zhou Yanqing's voice across a corner. He stopped, stood behind a row of decorative green plants, and watched from a distance the two people sitting in the front reception area chatting while eating.
Monica forked a piece of avocado and looked at it with disgust: "I eat salad every day, and my face turns green."
Zhou Yanqing pushed the beef stew with potatoes that he hadn't touched in front of Monica: "Then let's change?"
Monica shook her head again and again: "No, I'm just complaining. I managed to lose two catties this month, but I can't gain it back. I'm the face of our company. I really admire Mr. Song. I usually pay so much hard work in filming. You need to go on a diet to maintain your figure. Did you know that when Mr. Song was filming "Second Body", the director asked him to lose another five catties. In the month before the official filming, Mr. Song only ate boiled vegetables every day, and the portion was so small that even I I can’t even get enough to eat. Now Mr. Song eats very little, I suspect it was at that time that he developed a habit.”
Zhou Yan fell silent, and the fragrant potatoes and beef became dull.
Song Yu's appetite is indeed very small, part of the reason is to maintain his figure, and the bigger reason is that he is affected by depression and the side effects of drugs, and he can't arouse any appetite at all.
"Why don't you eat?" Monica asked.
Zhou Yan forced a smile: "I'm eating."
Monica chewed on the tasteless leaves of grass, lowered her voice and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Zhou, aren't you afraid of taking Mr. Song to and from get off work every day?"
Two days ago, Monica witnessed the scene where he and Song Yu went to work together. Zhou Yanqing didn't tell her the truth, but only said that he would pick up Song Yu to and from get off work every day.
After Monica learned about this, she would ask some things about Song Yu whenever she had the opportunity to chat, such as "Will Teacher Song doze off in the car", "Will Teacher Song chat with you in the car", all of which are For some irrelevant matters, Zhou Yanqing will answer truthfully as long as it does not involve privacy.
"Why are you afraid? Teacher Song is a very gentle person." Zhou Yan smiled lightly.
Monica sighed: "You don't understand, the warmer the surface, the harder the inside may be. Anyway, Teacher Song gave me the feeling that there is thousands of years of ice under the soft snow."
Zhou Yanqing felt that Monica's metaphor was inappropriate, but he did not refute it.
Song Yu, who was standing behind the green plant, had a smile on his lips, and began to reflect on whether he was too indifferent or too repulsive in his daily life.
He didn't put on the airs of a boss to deliberately distance himself from the people below, but he was quite conscious of being a boss. He believes that all employees should not like the boss hanging around under their noses, even the best-tempered boss will make the people below feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, he thinks he is not good at words, and he is not a good business operator, while Meng Shiping is very good at it, so in his previous life he trusted him so much and gave him the full power of the company.
Song Yu glanced at Zhou Yanqing thoughtfully, then turned and went back to her office.
Zhou Yanqing glanced at the location of the green plants as if feeling something, and a piece of black cloth flashed past his sight. He squinted his eyes to try to see more clearly, but there was nothing. Could it be that he was dazzled just now
After lunch, Zhou Yanqing didn't stay at the front desk any longer, that piece of clothing was always on his mind. Meng Shiping and Gao Lei were not in the company these two days, which made him a little happy, and he walked much more briskly.
Pushing open the office door, Zhou Yan was slightly stunned, because Song Yu's office door was wide open.
Forgot to close the door
Zhou Yan walked to the door lightly, stretched out his upper body and looked inside.
There was a book on Song Yu's lap, and he was leaning on the sofa to read seriously. The midday sun penetrated the glass and shone on Song Yu's body, casting a swaying halo on him.
Zhou Yanqing was about to walk away quietly, when Song Yu suddenly raised his head, and the eyes of the two lightly touched each other.
"What's wrong?" Song Yu asked.
Zhou Yanqing's cheeks were hot, he pretended to be calm and walked in, and asked, "Mr. Song, do you want something to drink? I'll make it for you."
His eyes paused for a moment on Song Yu's black knitted cardigan.
Song Yu turned the page of the book in his hand. This page just happened to say that the protagonist walked into a coffee shop and ordered a cup of hot mocha. He blurted out, "Coffee."
Zhou Yan pursed his lips and struggled for a while before saying "OK".
Ten minutes later, he brought a cup of drink with a special ratio. He didn't know whether to call it milk or coffee. Song Yu smiled silently and said thank you.
Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Song, then I'll go out first."
"Wait a minute." Song Yu called Zhou Yanqing to stop again, and he closed the book with imperceptible embarrassment in his eyes. After hesitating for a while, he asked uncertainly, "Do you...do you usually get together with your classmates?"
Zhou Yanqing's eyes widened subconsciously to express his astonishment, and it took him a second to confirm that Song Yu was really serious in asking the question, before he replied: "We will meet up when there is a holiday or someone's birthday."
Song Yu nodded clearly, and then asked, "What do you usually play at the party?"
Zhou Yanqing seriously recalled her college career: "Eating hot pot, playing basketball, watching movies, and going on a trip together during the long vacation."
"Okay." Song Yu raised her eyebrows and said as if she had made a lot of determination, "Then ask Monica to inform you that everyone in our company will leave work an hour early today. I invite everyone to eat hot pot. As for where to eat, you can discuss it." Let's decide together."
Zhou Yan was stunned. Could it be that he was dazzled when he saw the corner of the clothes just now, but really Song Yu? Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Song Yu suddenly invited everyone to eat hot pot. Did Song Yu hear what he said just now and think that everyone treats him like Monica, so he wants to use this method to change his image in the hearts of the employees
Zhou Yan bit the tip of her tongue lightly, deeply regretting that she didn't defend Song Yu after what Monica said just now.
"What's the matter?" Seeing that Zhou Yan was silent, Song Yu asked.
Zhou Yanqing came back to his senses, he swallowed to explain what Monica said just now, but he didn't know how to speak.
Song Yu looked at Zhou Yanqing seriously, as if he had seen through his mind, and added with a smile: "Our company has team building once or twice a month, which used to be organized by Brother Meng. He is not here these days Just let me organize it, you don't want to go?"
"No, it's not." Zhou Yanqing couldn't see any flaws on Song Yu's face, and he began to wonder if he had read it wrong just now, so he stopped entangled, "Then I will inform Monica now."
When Monica learned that Song Yu was going to treat her, she first suspected that Zhou Yan had cheated on her, and after confirming again and again, she unbelievably made an appointment for a hot pot restaurant with the best comprehensive evaluation, and reserved a private room.
There were no more than ten people in the studio including the cleaning aunt. Song Yu originally thought that the meal would be reserved and embarrassing, so he had already planned to sit down for a while and leave early, so that others could have a meal with peace of mind. But the result was beyond his expectation. The gurgling hot pot soup was steaming, and everyone sat around and ate happily.
Monica has a lively personality and is good at mobilizing the atmosphere. She urged Song Yu to tell everyone about the interesting things she encountered during filming.
Song Yu racked his brains to think of two anecdotes that he encountered in the crew. He didn't think it was funny, but everyone present laughed very heartily. If it weren't for the honest and simple cleaning auntie who was wiping away tears with a smile, Song Yu would almost have thought that everyone present was trying to cheer him up.
When the dinner was about to end, Song Yu went to the bathroom, and Zhou Yanqing approached Monica and asked, "Monica, didn't you say that you are afraid of Teacher Song? I don't think you are that afraid."
Monica shyly pushed Zhou Yan lightly, lowered her head and whispered: "Hey, actually, what I described is not quite right. To be precise, we are not afraid but timid. Let's not talk about talking to Mr. Song at ordinary times. In a company There are very few chances to meet each other, and Mr. Song is the male god in the hearts of thousands of men and women. How can we not be timid? Seeing such a down-to-earth Mr. Song today, I guess everyone is happy Hua. Let me tell you quietly, we are really afraid of Brother Meng. We are so happy that he is not in the company these days~"
Zhou Yan laughed softly, seeing that everyone's attitude towards Song Yu changed after a meal of hot pot, he was happier than Song Yu himself. Just like what Monica said, everyone is not afraid of Song Yu, but rather daunting. Once they have the opportunity to see the gentle and gentle Song Yu clearly through the appearance, no one will dislike him.
On the way back, the corners of Song Yu's raised mouth never drooped.
The meal time allowed him to understand the completely different faces of the employees in private. It turns out that Monica is actually a good drinker, and the accountant Zhang is actually very talkative.
It turns out that walking into the crowd is actually quite interesting.
Song Yu opened the car window a crack, and the cool wind in the late autumn night made him feel refreshed.
The colorful lights outside the car windows sweep the prosperity of the entire city, and clusters of brilliant lights illuminate the gloom of countless people's lives.
Zhou Yan glanced lightly at Song Yu's angular profile, and then quickly looked away.
At the same time, Song Yu withdrew his gaze and closed the car window. He said softly, "Let Monica choose a suitable place next time and take you to play."
Zhou Yan smiled gently: "Okay."
The next time, for ordinary people, is a verbal plan to be completed, but for Song Yu, it is the fire that keeps life burning.
Two days later, the signing of Gao Tong was already in the works. Meng Shiping didn't have to run around anymore, and the filming schedule for the second phase of "Returning to the Garden" also arrived. This time the program team selected a village on an island in Haibin City.
On the day when he landed on the island, in the wet and salty sea breeze, in the afterglow of the setting sun, Song Yu unexpectedly saw Han Jin.
