Eh, what time is it?"

Ai Xin listened to Wang Yu talking about his family affairs, and was listening to it intoxicated, when he suddenly saw him look at his watch, and suddenly remembered that he still had something to do today. Sure enough, other people's stories are more attractive.

"It's almost time, I'm done with this plate and I'm going to drive. ”

Wang Yu pointed to the German garlic sausage and bacon on his plate, revealing a shy smile.

Ai Xin didn't understand, Wang Yu could eat such a greasy thing when he got up in the morning, and he couldn't digest the fried oysters. But think about it, I am also a person who eats steak fries on an empty stomach at six or seven o'clock in the morning, and I don't seem to be qualified to talk about others.

She still remembers that when her stomach problems were not so bad before, the most exaggerated time, she was hungry all night, got up at six o'clock in the morning, and ate a whole whole three catties of pork knuckle in sauce by herself. Of course, the price is nausea for the whole day.

"You eat, don't worry, I'll go early and wait. ”

Ai Xin nodded, took out his mobile phone, and began to think about how to reply to Tong Yu's WeChat message last night.

Even if it is such an ordinary message, she has to think of an almost perfect reply, which is her attitude towards Tong Yu all along. Although, Tong Yu seems to prefer the real her. But only she knows that under the truth, there will be imperfection.

"Sister Xin, I'm done, let's go drive first, you can go to the door in a few minutes. ”

Wang Yu ate quickly, picked up the paper towel on the table and wiped his mouth, folded the paper towel into a square and put it on the plate, then stood up and took out the car keys from his pocket.

"Just go together, there can be less formalism. ”

Ai Xin lowered his head and smiled, Wang Yu learned the fastest, it should be how to train Ai Xin to be a boss. These days, I'm almost spoiled for myself.

"Good. ”

Wang Yu looked at her with a grin, nodded, and turned around with the key. At that moment, Ai Xin remembered that Wang Yu was just a teenager in his twenties.

This road is very smooth, there is not much traffic jam in T City, and the time is still early, Ai Xin and Wang Yu arrived at the "Lover's Bay" in less than half an hour.

Ai Xin has been to T City many times, and has learned a lot about the customs of T City before, which is a small city by the sea, and the economy is not very developed. Compared to Beijing, the pace of life here is very slow, there are fewer steel beasts on four wheels, but there are many teenagers and girls riding little sheep through the streets.

When she was here, she occasionally remembered her hometown, which was also a city with a very slow pace of life. People there, in their spare time, spend a whole afternoon sitting by the river, drinking tea, chatting and playing cards. People who have a slow pace of life will always make people feel ...... Some are unambitious.

This is one of Ai Jinling's favorite words to say Fang Jun in the past, and he has no ambitions.

Ai thought to himself that everyone's pursuit is different, maybe some people are troubled by their families and cannot pursue their careers, and maybe some people are successful in their careers but are unhappy and just want a complete and happy family.

In the past, Ai Xin felt that Fang Jun should be such a person. Although his career is not very successful, he just honestly gets a salary and decent benefits, but he devotes himself to his family and is also a very handsome man role model.

Even if Ai Xin later found out that this was not the case at all, however, Fang Jun really had nothing to do with his ambition.

"Sister. Wang Yu parked the car and glanced at her through the rearview mirror, "Do you want to get out of the car now?"

"There's no hurry. Ai Xin shook her head, took out her phone, put on her headphones, and closed her eyes.

Really...... Wang Yu looked at her slightly tired appearance, and he found out when he went to pick her up in the room in the morning. Although it is not a very strange thing for Ai Xin to wake up early, she seemed to be in a bad state yesterday and most likely did not have a good rest at night. If you can take a shower, put on makeup, and change clothes so early in the morning, it's likely that you haven't slept much at all.

Wang Yu used to read on the Internet and said that successful people sleep less than ordinary people, and many of them only sleep four hours a day. He thought that if he was a big boss, he would be able to be very idle every day, and it didn't seem to be such an easy job.

Ai Xin rested for more than half an hour, and Wang Yu had just finished playing a game when he heard the sound of Suo Suo from the back seat.

"I'm asleep?"

Ai Xin's voice carried a hint of dazedness and tiredness, which was rare, Wang Yu nodded and looked at her quietly.

"Whew...... Okay, it's almost time, I'll go up and say hello first. ”

"Well, am I waiting for you here?"

"Yes, that's it. It's okay to go out and about, don't go too far, I'll call you anytime. ”

"Good. Wang Yu nodded honestly, put out the fire, and glanced at his phone again.

Ai Xin didn't look at him, just glanced at his watch again, got out of the car by himself, and walked out.

Fortunately, if you just go to the waiting room, you don't need to take the scary sightseeing elevator of "Lover's Eye", you just need to take the ordinary elevator to go up.

Ai Xin breathed a sigh of relief and walked out, only to find that only the staff were arranging the camera and lights, and no one he knew seemed to be there.

"Hello......" Ai Xin found a staff member who looked a little kinder, said hello and began to ask where he should go, "Well, I'm going to participate in the shooting later...... It's not started yet, have you, I'd like to ask where I'm going to wait?"

"The powder room. The man glanced at Ai Xin, he was not a star he knew, he thought it should be the amateur who cooperated with the shooting, but his tone was quite friendly, "You go forward, there is a word on the door." ”

"Okay, thank you. ”

Ai Xin nodded, continued to look forward, and finally found the dressing room with an A4 paper on the door.

When she came here yesterday, because the main coffee didn't come, and because Li Man and Ye Ye were there, she was able to share a dressing room with Tong Yu. Today's official shooting, I'm afraid she can only stay in this simple make-up and rest room.

Pushing open the door, there was no one inside, and there were no makeup supplies, it seemed that the makeup artist had not yet arrived.

But think about it, the main coffee and Tong Yu were filming in the morning, presumably they had already put on makeup elsewhere, and the most they could do here was to make up their makeup. And I guess I won't ask someone to do the makeup.

Ai Xin was very satisfied with her decision to put on makeup in advance, and there was no one in the house anyway, so she sat on the sofa casually, clicked on a movie on her phone, and watched it.

It was "I, Queen of Flowers" starring Margot Robbie, Ai Xin had a good impression of this actress, and after watching "Suicide Squad" starring her, she couldn't help but fall in love with the Harley Quinn style in it.

She is already quite obsessed with superpowers, and all super hero movies, TV series, and comics will not be missed, plus the sadistic and sweet emotional line in it, even if the movie story is average, it does not affect Ai Xin's liking of the characters in it.

But this movie, although the name has the word "queen", the heroine has grown from a miserable child to a big one, and Ai Xin feels that she really shouldn't watch this movie when she is waiting for the scene now.

Not long after seeing the heroine's mother appear, Ai Xin couldn't help but turn off the movie, put her phone aside, and all kinds of pictures came to mind.

She is afraid of heights, which has been a problem since she was a child, and has nothing to do with the so-called acquired growth environment and psychological shadow. Probably because the brain is too developed, although she has shown to be more agile than her peers since she was a child, correspondingly, Ai Xin's cerebellum does not seem to be "sound".

The word "sound" is not very "sound" is said by Tao Li, she used to only think that she was just underdeveloped cerebellum.

In addition to her fear of heights, Ai Xin's balance is also extremely poor. Not to mention the difficult events such as walking on the balance beam and straight lines, even if she walks on flat ground, Ai Xin sometimes falls inexplicably.

In the past, when she was in college, every time she wrestled, Tao Li would squat on the side and laugh for a long time before pulling her up, and she had to think for a long time about what Ai Xin lacked to look so stupid.

Ai Xin's limbs are also very uncoordinated, dancing or something is not at all, even the most basic tests and course content in physical education class, Ai Xin is difficult to complete, thanks to Tao Li's punctuation in school.

But compared with these other innocuous little things, fear of heights has the greatest impact on Ai Xin's life, and when it is serious, Ai Xin can't even do it on the overpass on the road, the escalator in the mall, or even climbing the table.

When I was a child, my family had money, and I was picked up and sent by car wherever I went, and Ai Xin was a girl, so it was rare for her to go to a high place, and it wasn't until she was older that Ai Xin discovered this problem.

That's when Ai Jinling took her to the mall. Usually, things are bought directly from home, but Ai Xin is old, and many clothes have to be tried on the spot, so Ai Jin took her out when she was free.

Ai Xin had never taken an escalator before, and she took a straight elevator directly to the floor where she ate or played. But this time it was Ai Jinling who took it, and Ai Jinling would also buy some things for herself by the way, so she took Ai Xin to walk around floor by floor.

She still remembers that the mall was very deserted, there were not many people, but the area was very large. When I grew up, I realized that the mall was full of luxury goods.

There are advantages and disadvantages to a large area, for Ai Xin, she can only see the disadvantages, that is, the escalator is quite wide, and both sides are suspended, unlike many escalators that are interactive, with counters on both sides, and the two sides of the escalator are completely empty, and it looks like she is in the air at a glance.

I don't know why, Ai Xin just didn't dare to step on the escalator, stood in front of the escalator, touched the handrail next to him, and let the handrail run up a lot, Ai Xin couldn't take a step, stepping on the steps of the escalator.

"What are you doing?"

Ai Jinling was an impatient person, and when she saw Ai Xin holding the handrail in front of the escalator but not going up, she thought she was joking, and her brows furrowed.

"I, I...... I don't dare...... Mom, I can't get up. ”

Ai Xin looked at Ai Jinling timidly, she didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just didn't dare to go up, looking at the long hanging escalator, as if this was a passage to hell.

“...... What's the, hurry up!"

Ai Jinling frowned, she had better save face, there were already a few passers-by around her who were staring at Ai Xin, if it continued like this, she couldn't afford to lose this person.

"Mom, I'...... Can I go take the elevator?"

"Less nonsense!"

Before Ai Xin could continue to beg for mercy, he was grabbed by Ai Jinling and pushed directly onto the escalator.

"Ahh

Ai Xin screamed in surprise, and had no time to react, so he could only hold on to the handrail on the side tightly, trembling all over but not daring to move, he could only look at the rising stairs in front of him, praying that he could reach his destination quickly.

That was the first time Ai Xin felt panic since she was a child, and it is no exaggeration to say that if the elevator was longer, she might have peed her pants in public.

There is no empathy in the so-called world, and people like Ai Jinling who are not afraid of heights are completely unable to understand Ai Xin's fear, and it was not until he saw that Ai Xin's body also reacted that he understood it a little.

It's just that he took the escalator up one floor, Ai Xin's face was already covered with sweat, his face was pale, his lips and body were trembling, but he didn't dare to explain his fear to Ai Jinling.

Although after that, Ai Jinling basically avoided letting Ai Xin go to high places, that experience still left a very deep trace in Ai Xin's childhood memories.

When she grew up, she never went to the kind of shopping mall where she could buy clothes, shoes and bags on the first floor, and she would never go to the mall above the second floor to buy women's clothing.

When she graduated from college, she and Tao left them on a trip to Shanghai, and they clamored to see the Jin Mao Tower in Shanghai. Faced with the rare experience of "walking in the clouds", which was just launched at that time, Ai Xin could only sit and drink coffee in the underground restaurant, and did not even have the courage to take the elevator up.

She doesn't know why she thinks of this, in fact, she has eased a lot over the years, maybe she doesn't go to high places much, maybe she has grown up and understands Ai Jinling's so-called "saving face". As an adult, I really can't show panic because of this kind of thing many times outside.

But when she is alone, she will still try to avoid it, and occasionally there are unavoidable circumstances, she can also feel her heart beating and sweating for a long time.

Ai Xin glanced at the phone screen, the time was not early, but he hadn't heard any movement outside, that is, the shooting force had not yet arrived. She sent a message to Li Man, opened the music software, clicked on a random playlist, and lay down on the sofa.

Those memories, she knew, would never fade away...... The only way to get rid of those memories is to accept them. As long as you are resistant, those things will always be a wound.

She thought about it countless times and wanted to tell Tong Yu, but she was worried that Tong Yu would see all this as a show of weakness and a means to win sympathy. After all, he is in Tong Yu's place, and there is not much trust left.

She was more worried about whether Tong Yu could accept all this.

Tong Yu grew up with his mother since he was a child, and his emphasis on family affection is almost beyond everything. She wasn't sure if Tong Yu could understand the side effects of her experiences, or if she would just see herself as an outlier in need of help, like everyone else, like the student union at the university.
