Yu Xi rested in the apartment for two days after attending the banquet and did not go out. Zhong Chen ran into Jiang Jingbai several times when he came back from shopping. When she opened the door, Jiang Jingbai casually looked in and saw Yu Xi Lying lazily on the sofa, complaining like a cat: "When can I go out?"
Zhong Chen comforted each time: "Hurry up, hurry up, I can go out for filming."
The next words were locked behind the door, and Jiang Jingbai could never hear them again.
After returning to the apartment, she took off her high-heeled shoes, put down her briefcase, and lay on the sofa just like she saw Yu Xi just now. The crystal lamp above her head was flickering, and she suddenly heard a voice in her ears.
"Jingbai, why are you reading again? Look at me. I'm wearing a new dress today. My mother just bought it for me. Does it look good?"
She saw her jumping like an elf in a pink dress, and flowers bloomed when she smiled. Thousands of words came to her mind, but she only said two words clumsily: "It looks good."
"Go to the library again, don't, we agreed to date on the weekend, if you do this again, I will be angry!"
She looked at Yu Xi's swollen face and was in a good mood for no reason. She poked her finger at the corner of her mouth and said, "Then I will accompany you."
Yu Xi's bulging mouth seemed to be leaking, and it disappeared in an instant, and her sweet voice was next to her ear: "That's right! To your loving kiss!"
After she finished speaking, she held her face, closed her eyes and leaned over. Jiang Jing stretched out her white hand in mid-air, the illusion was shattered, her smiling expression froze, she put her hand on her forehead, closed her eyes, and looked tired .
Jiang Jingbai's fingers slowly curled up, her nails sunk deep into her palm, leaving mottled marks.
The phone rang suddenly, and Jiang Jingbai regained consciousness and sat up.
"Hello." The voice was still a little hoarse, and the person on the other end of the phone said respectfully: "Mr. Jiang, Director Zhao contacted me just now. There will be a launching ceremony tomorrow. I want to ask if you are free to attend?"
After finishing speaking, the assistant continued: "I just checked the time, we are going to City H to sign the contract tomorrow morning, maybe not..."
Jiang Jingbai pursed her lips: "The contract will be pushed back."
The assistant was stunned for a moment: "Contract—is it going to be pushed back?"
No wonder he was surprised, because before the contract, Jiang Jingbai made several trips to City H and did it herself. Seeing that the contract was about to be signed, she suddenly changed her mind and postponed it
Jiang Jingbai nodded: "Well, push back one day."
"You say hello to there, just say that I can't leave."
The assistant replied: "Okay, do you have other arrangements for tomorrow?"
Jiang Jingbai thought for a few seconds: "Go to the opening ceremony."
The assistant paused for a few seconds: "OK."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jingbai pushed open the balcony door, and a gust of cold wind blew in. The drizzle has not stopped for the past two days, and there is more humidity and chill in the air.
The sound of sneezing came from the balcony next door.
"Come in Xixi, why are you standing by the window again, don't catch a cold, or else Baijie will scold me again."
Yu Xi's voice was very different from before, a little cold: "Bring me some clothes."
Jiang Jingbai leaned back against the balcony, listening to the occasional chatter around her and drooping her eyes.
A wall separates the two worlds.
Yu Xi rubbed her nose and sneezed again. Seeing Zhong Chen staring at her, she pouted, "Okay, I'm coming in."
She said and closed the glass door on the window sill, and Zhong Chen handed her a cup after entering the living room: "To prevent a cold, drink a cup."
"Rest early tonight, there will be a launching ceremony tomorrow morning."
Yu Xi nodded: "Okay."
"Is Miss Bai coming?"
Zhong Chen hummed: "Come on."
Yu Xi drank the medicine and stretched her waist: "I'm going to sleep first, close the door when you leave."
Zhong Chen cleaned up the script on the coffee table: "Got it."
Soon there was no sound from the next door. Jiang Jingbai counted the time, and it was almost time for Zhong Chen to go back. She opened the door with a garbage bag in her hand, and Zhong Chen just opened the door and came out.
Jiang Jingbai looked inside, but she didn't see Yu Xi, so she looked away and pressed the elevator floor.
Zhong Chen stood beside her, also holding a garbage bag in his hand, bit his lip and thought for a few seconds and said, "Does Jiang always go down to throw out the garbage? Let me take it down for you?"
It's not that she wants to help Jiang Jingbai with something, but rather than staying in the same elevator with her for a few minutes, it's better to take her down, at least, there is no need for a few minutes of embarrassing time.
Jiang Jingbai bowed her head and stretched out her hand: "Then I will trouble you."
Zhong Chen twitched the corner of his mouth: "President Jiang, you're welcome, don't bother."
She politely took the garbage bag that Jiang Jingbai handed to her, always having the illusion that she was the assistant of two people, Zhong Chen shook her head and got on the elevator, Jiang Jingbai glanced at Yuxi's door after she left, After a few seconds of silence, he returned to his apartment.
The next day was a sunny day. After two days of raining, the rain finally stopped. The scorching sun rose early, and the sun shone through the cracks in the curtains in the room. stick out.
Turn off the alarm clock.
The alarm clock was set by Zhong Chen last night, and there were three. She would not stop until she was woken up. After turning it off, Yu Xi sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. Suddenly she turned her head to look at the window, and saw the sliver of sunlight leaping in. She narrowed her eyes and woke up.
Yu Xi received a call from Zhong Chen after washing up, asking her if she was up, and would come to pick her up in half an hour, Yu Xi slurred with foam in her mouth, "Got it."
After hanging up the phone, she looked left and right at the person in the mirror, and it was okay, the diet a few days ago had an effect, and she looked a little thinner, so it shouldn't be difficult to see on the mirror.
Yu Xi started to brush her teeth, wash her face, change clothes and put on makeup in a happy mood, and ran into Jiang Jingbai as soon as she went out.
Jiang Jingbai stood at the door, looking like she just came out. She was wearing formal clothes, carrying a bag in her hand, and was looking down at her watch. When she heard movement around her, she turned her head and saw Yu Xi coming out wearing a floral skirt up.
It's not the way she was dressed up before. Today, Yu Xizhi is wearing a light-colored floral skirt, the skirt reaches her knees, and she wears a pair of 7-8 cm high heels with wedge heels. There is also a red thread tied on the ankle. Her skin became fairer and more translucent. Yu Xi, who was well-dressed before, gave off a domineering and gorgeous feeling, but now she is dressed lightly, and her temperament has suddenly softened a lot.
Yu Xi nodded slightly, her red lips parted slightly: "Mr. Jiang, good morning."
Jiang Jingbai met her eyes, the inside was clear, all the previous struggles were gone, looking at her was like looking at a stranger, without any waves, Jiang Jingbai tightened her hand carrying the bag, and said: "Morning."
The two walked into the elevator together.
When approaching the first floor, Jiang Jingbai asked, "Are you going to the start-up site?"
Yu Xi thought for a few seconds, then nodded, "Yes, President Jiang is going too?"
"Ok."
Accompanying her voice was the ding of the elevator, and when the first floor arrived, Yu Xi walked out in high heels, turned her head, and smiled lightly: "Boss Jiang, I'll take a step first."
Jiang Jingbai stared at her faintly smiling face for a moment.
This kind of professional smile that treats her like a stranger is more hurtful than the previous indifference. In Jiang Jing's white eyes is the figure that is gradually leaving without looking back.
In a few seconds, she received a message from her assistant.
— Mr. Jiang, the car is here.
Jiang Jingbai bowed her head and left the hall.
Sitting in the car, Yu Xi watched as the figure not far away got into the black car, then the car swerved in front of them, the wheels drew an arc, and left the community in a blink of an eye.
She was leaning against the car window when she heard the sound of the car door being pulled open, and then Zhong Chen said: "Xixi, that store is closed, I bought you two buns to pad your stomach."
Yu Xi took the breakfast she handed over and took two bites, not very hungry.
The opening ceremony was scheduled to be held in a small park near the film and television city. Although Bai Yutang said at the time that he would not invite too many media, but after all, it was going to be a TV series, and it was impossible not to reveal any news, so there were still a few reporters on the scene. .
When Yu Xi arrived, the other actors were almost all there.
Tao Yitong also arrived. She was wearing casual clothes, with a ponytail, and she was full of vigor. Ji Linfeng was sitting beside her. The two of them were laughing happily without knowing what to say. Yu Xi and Director Zhao nodded slightly as a greeting, and stood on one side Luoluoran. Behind him, just as Zhong Chen was about to open the sun umbrella, he saw a petite figure approaching.
"goddess!"
Mo Ninghuan stared at Yu Xi with a look of admiration on her face. She handed the drink: "Goddess, are you hot? This is the cold drink I just bought. By the way, it is your favorite brand. Would you like to have a sip?"
Yu Xi looked at her and smiled slightly. It is not uncommon for people in the circle to be so enthusiastic. The taller you stand, the more flattering people you will find around you. However, Mourning Huan feels differently from others. Very - pure.
It's not the purity of the packaging, but the personality is very simple, with preferences hanging on the face, making it easy for people to see through. If it weren't for this, Yu Xi would not have taken the initiative to say about the group photo yesterday.
Now meeting that pair of extremely worshipful eyes, Yu Xi paused, nodded, and took the drink in her hand: "Thank you."
The red lips are slightly parted, and the voice is clear and shallow. Even if she is wearing casual clothes, she can't hold back the overwhelming arrogance in her bones.
Mourning, who was standing beside her, smirked: "Goddess and I are welcome."
Yu Xi smiled, nodded slightly, and walked through her. Director Zhao was talking to the on-site staff. She walked over and said politely, "Director Zhao."
Director Zhao turned his head: "Yu Xi is here."
"Go over there and sit for a while, it's quite hot today."
It is indeed a bit hot. Yesterday was still cold and windy and drizzled. Today, the sun is shining brightly, and people seem to be peeling off their skin. Yu Xi followed Director Zhao's eyes and saw the rest shed not far away. Several people were already seated.
Ji Linfeng was waving at her: "Sister Xi!"
Just as Yu Xi was about to walk over, there was commotion not far away. She didn't need to look to know that Jiang Jingbai was coming.
Sure enough, when he bowed his head, there were whispers of discussions around him.
"Boss Jiang is here."
"Let's go and have a look."
"Don't go, Xiao Ai was told yesterday that you forgot to ask, how embarrassing."
"That's okay, anyway, it's familiar, it's not wrong to hang out in front of her more often."
"makes sense."
Yu Xi saw the two girls around her leaving the shed together, she walked over, sat down with Zhong Chen, Ji Linfeng leaned on the table, resting his chin on his hands, looked at the person not far away and said, "Mr. Jiang is really young. promising."
The girl sitting next to him murmured softly, "Not only is she young and promising, she's also pretty and has a good temperament."
"I heard that Jin'ou's last boss had something to do with her, so I recommended her to Jin'ou."
Ji Linfeng turned to look at Tao Yitong when he heard this, and smiled: "Yitong, didn't you sign in with Mr. Jiang when he first joined the company? Did you know Mr. Jiang?"
He had the posture of chatting, but when he asked, he was very private, which was very taboo in the circle, but Ji Linfeng was straightforward when he was outside, so everyone didn't think much about it, and they all looked at Tao Yitong.
Tao Yitong smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter, it's just an old classmate."
Everyone sitting in the shed was surprised: "Old classmate?"
"So you and Jiang are always classmates, no, isn't President Jiang studying abroad?"
Tao Yitong still smiled: "High school classmate."
Ji Linfeng answered: "A high school classmate will sign with my company as soon as they return to China. It seems that the relationship is unusual."
Tao Yitong lowered her head, her face flushed slightly, but she didn't correct his remarks, Yu Xi lowered her eyes, Zhong Chen couldn't hold back and said, "There's something unusual, it's just that the old classmate saw that the former classmate was having a bad time and just helped them along the way."
"After all, some people have been in the industry for so many years, and they haven't even acted as a heroine."
Zhong Chen's words chilled the entire shed. If she was an assistant of ordinary people, she would have been torn to pieces long ago, but she was Yu Xi's assistant, and no one dared to touch her.
Not even one to talk back.
Yu Xi burst out laughing, and coughed lightly, "Zhong Chen, what are you talking about, and apologize to Miss Tao."
Zhong Chenmu nodded: "Oh."
"I'm sorry, Miss Tao."
"I just said the wrong thing."
Tao Yitong still had a slight smile on her face, she didn't seem to take Zhong Chen's words to heart, and shook her head generously: "It doesn't matter, what you said is also the truth."
"So I have to hold this thigh tightly."
When everyone heard her half-joking words, they began to joke again. Yu Xi sat on the chair with an indifferent expression all the time, and had no other expression except for talking to her just now. Tao Yitong glanced at her several times from the corner of her eye.
A few minutes later, Director Zhao called everyone over to take pictures.
Positioning has always been a matter of particularity. Generally, the protagonist is reserved for the protagonist, followed by the director and assistant director. If there is an investor, arrangements must be made, so Jiang Jingbai stands next to Yu Xi.
Jiang Jingbai originally didn't intend to take part in the photoshoot, but when Director Zhao saw her standing on the side, he greeted: "Boss Jiang, this way."
The eyes of the others were also filled with anticipation, and Yu Xi also raised her eyes to look over. Jiang Jingbai met her clear eyes, refused to swallow, and nodded: "Okay."
She walked to Yuxi's side.
Director Zhao was on Yu Xi's right and squeezed Tao Yitong, who was standing next to Yu Xi, to the side.
It's hot, everyone is not standing very close, and there is still some distance between them. The camera brother is sweating anxiously: "Come closer."
"Be more natural."
Everyone moved their bodies cooperatively, and the camera brother looked at the two indifferent expressions in the camera and took a breath: "Let's make a gesture, this."
"I'll count one, two, three later, let's do it together."
He said and raised his hands: "One, two, three!"
Everyone raised their hands slightly, and Yu Xi's and Jiang Jingbai's backs were scratched. She retracted subconsciously, turned her head, and looked at Jiang Jingbai beside her. It happened that Jiang Jingbai was also looking at her, and her eyes met. Wipe it.
The capture was just right.
