Cheng Hao still remembered the mutton knife and noodle restaurant in the morning, and the two went there for lunch again. It's just that this lunch was a little late, almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Even He Xin himself was surprised, he hadn't even felt hungry for the story of "The Garden with Divergent Paths" for so long in the bookstore before.

Sometimes books can be eaten as a meal.

After eating, He Xin originally thought that he would go to the nearby Wangfujing for shopping, but Cheng Hao insisted on pulling him to Xidan, saying that there were several new clothing stores there with a lot of styles.

The two walked around and entered a few stores, Cheng Hao picked and chosen, and occasionally tried them on, but they didn't seem to be very satisfied. He Xin had sufficient mental preparation, and his country wife had to spend most of the day shopping in the wholesale market at the east gate of the county to buy a dress.

"How's that broker you talked about last time?"

Once again, they walked out of a women's clothing store empty-handed, and the two chatted casually.

"There's no news yet, but people don't look down on me at all. He Xindao.

He is not in a hurry about the agent at the moment, at least he still has a job to do. I remember the last time I had dinner, Li Mengnan and Hao Rong joked that if he could be crowned the best actor at the Berlin Film Festival, some agents would come to him to sign a contract.

Jokes are jokes, He Xin himself has no hope at all, but he always feels that participating in the Berlin Film Festival is like going out to a big city to see the world, and he will have more confidence when talking.

"What about you, you don't want to find an agent?" He Xin then asked her.

Cheng Hao shook his head and said, "I think it's still early, let's talk about it after graduation." ”

After getting in touch with Cheng Hao, He Xin found that she always had her own clear goals and clear plans. For example, if you do an internship, you should do a good internship, and if you don't think about anything else, you won't be ambitious.

This is another shining point he found in Cheng Hao, he is more confused in this regard, and he always has a feeling of getting by and messing around.

When two people are together, they want to complement each other, and in the future, children's education, going to school, etc., must be up to her......

"Ah, the shop in front is good, let's go inside. ”

Cheng Hao's voice woke him up from his daydream, and he couldn't help but blush, and followed the girl into a clothing store.

When I walked into the store, He Xin found that it was actually a men's clothing store, and I looked at the huge LOG in the store, which was still a famous domestic brand from his hometown in his previous life.

The clothes inside are very expensive, at least a thousand or more suits, and the cheapest shirts are more than a hundred and nearly two hundred. He Xin didn't quite understand why Cheng Hao came in, whether to buy clothes for her father, or to buy them as gifts?

"He Xin!"

I saw Cheng Hao holding a blue-gray suit and beckoning, "Come and try it." ”

"Me?"

He Xin was stunned.

"Come and try on this dress. Cheng Hao urged.

"What are you doing, you want to buy clothes for me?" He Xin walked over.

"You're going to Berlin, and you're going to have to buy a decent outfit. Cheng Hao said.

He Xin usually wears either a jacket or a down sweater, and Cheng Hao has never seen him wear a suit.

"No, not really. ”

He Xin saw that Cheng Hao was really coming, and he was busy refusing to excuse himself, he had already inquired with Wang Xiaoshuai, there are special places abroad to rent dresses, and the price of ordinary points is not expensive, if you need it, just rent a set.

"If you want to try, just try, where is there so much nonsense!" Cheng Hao finally revealed the fierce side of the Qilu woman, glaring.

Seeing this, He Xin had to take off the down jacket on his body, revealing a red sweater inside.

"Wow!"

Cheng Hao looked at it, and immediately said with a look of disgust: "You can't show the effect of wearing it like this." ”

As he spoke, he picked out a white shirt for him, pointed to the locker room, and ordered, "Change them all." ”

"Oh. ”

He Xin went in with a bitter face.

Originally, he thought that if Cheng Hao insisted on helping him buy it, he would pay the money first, but just now he secretly glanced at the tag on the clothes, the price was 1980, and the shirt would cost more than 2,000, so he felt even more unnecessary, but the girl was too strong.

When he squirmed and came out of the fitting room, Cheng Hao and the waiter next to him obviously brightened their eyes. I have to say, don't look at this thing, he is usually wrapped in a black down jacket, which is dirty, but at this time, he changed into this suit, which fits very well, just like growing on him, and this temperament has changed dramatically.

Cheng Hao nodded again and again, "This set is good! This set is good! Oh, by the way, you have to wear a tie." ”

As he spoke, there were words in his mouth: "A blue-gray suit and a white shirt should be matched...... Yes, black, black tie. ”

"Not ......"

While the waiter went to get the tie, He Xin hurriedly pulled her aside and whispered: "I said eldest sister, it's too expensive here, it's not affordable at all, let's find two more to see?"

Cheng Hao was still fiddling with his clothes, looked left and right, and said with a satisfied face: "Don't look at it, that's it, I think you are particularly suitable for dressing." ”

"Hey......"

"Don't hey, look at you like that, I will give you, you don't have to pay for it!"

"I mean, it's not necessary. He Xin still insisted in a low voice.

"Is it necessary?" Then you came to Suzhou last time and took care of me for two days, and I said it was not necessary?" Cheng Hao raised his chin and said.

"Uh......"

Dare to be affectionate, this is a return of favor! Girl, don't be so sensible, okay? He Xin was depressed.

The suit, shirt, and tie add up to more than 2,300 in total, and the girl's card, when she paid the money, faced the stunned gaze of the waiter, making him feel as if he was eating soft rice. So much so that when I went out with a bag, I was still a little sullen.

"Not happy?"

"No, thank you!" He Xin smiled reluctantly.

Cheng glanced at him, pursed his lips and said, "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else." ”

"I know ......"

He Xin wanted to say a few more polite words, but he noticed a slightly embarrassed expression on Cheng Hao's face, and suddenly realized that he was so stupid! The girl was kind enough to buy you clothes, what are you still pretending to?

Subconsciously blurted out: "Okay, I'm sorry, I was wrong just now!"

Hey, the nickname that was originally hidden in my heart and mobile phone was actually said like this.

Cheng Hao was also obviously stunned for a moment.

Her nickname is not good, this is the nickname that her classmates gave her after going to the middle school drama, not only female classmates, but even the male classmates in the class also call her that. And at this time, it came out of He Xin's mouth for the first time, and I don't know why, it just felt weird.

"Oh, let's go, then. She whispered, but was too embarrassed to look at the other person.

......

Five days later, He Xin, Wang Xiaoshuai, Li Bing, Li Huatong, and Niu Le stepped on the plane to Berlin. The representative of the producer over there, Sister Jiao Xiongpin, has already gone there in advance.

It turned out that He Xin planned to carry a bag and set off, but for the sake of that "expensive" suit, he not only bought a large suitcase for clothes, but also specially matched a pair of leather shoes with more than 300 yuan. When he was shopping for clothes that day, he was embarrassed to tell Cheng Hao that he didn't even have a decent pair of leather shoes.

Since getting on the plane, Wang Xiaoshuai seems to have fallen into an abnormal excitement, chatting with Li Huatong and Niu Le.

In fact, it is no wonder that although several of his previous works have won awards in Europe and are participating in the Berlin Film Festival for the second time, it is the first time that he has been shortlisted for the main competition unit. And he will also become the third director shortlisted for the main competition unit of the three major European film festivals among the so-called "sixth generation" directors in China after Jiang Wen and Zhang Yuan.

He Xin, who was sitting in the back row, and Li Bing exchanged a few words of greeting, then fell into an awkward silence. When He Xin took out the book "The Garden with Diverging Paths" to read, Li Bing leaned over and asked him what book he was reading.

He Xin showed him the cover, briefly talked about the contents of the book, and then asked him if he would read it, but he shook his head like a rattle, obviously not interested in such esoteric foreign novels.

This made He Xin secretly sigh that the two really had no common language, and at the same time, a vain sense of superiority arose. Even today, he still hasn't understood what the story "The Garden with Diverging Paths" is about.
