Chapter 48: You Win
He just wanted her to stop, but he couldn't stop like an addiction, and he wanted more and more......
Ji Yufan secretly scolded herself shamelessly in her heart, how could she have evil thoughts when she was most helpless and sad? Isn't this taking advantage of others?
But the feeling she felt in his arms was so good, so steady, he tightened his arms and hugged her tighter, reluctant to let go.
With her in his arms, his heart has never been so stable. At this moment, he was extremely aware that he didn't just like her, he loved her and it was very deep.
Chang Huan had asked him more than once if he was sure of his intentions, not youthful restlessness, not a mother-love complex, not some kind of illusion caused by the day and night?
He himself had hesitated. He had never loved anyone before, he was ignorant of her feelings, he just cared about her every move, someone bullied her, he would be more angry and heartbroken than her, and when he saw other men leaning into her, he was jealous and worried, as if his baby was snatched away.
But now he has figured it all out, it's all because of love, and her every move will affect his heart so much, not restless, not delusional, not a lack of maternal love. That's not how he felt about her. He wanted to protect her, accompany her, stay with her, and feel extremely happy every minute and every second with her.
Seeing her sleeping in his arms, Ji Yufan kissed her forehead tenderly, got up and walked to the balcony outside the living room to make a familiar call.
"Do me one thing......
"I don't want to hear that, I want results!"
……
In the early morning, the fine sunlight shone into the room through the window screen and sprinkled on Ye Yanran's face, she woke up quietly, and when she turned her head, she saw Ji Yufan's sunny and handsome face sleeping next to her pillow.
She rested on his arm, curled up in his mother's arms, and his other arm was naturally around her waist and encircled her.
Ye Yanran subconsciously lowered her head, and the clothes on her body were neat and intact. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and moved slightly to get out of bed. But as soon as she moved, Ji Yufan's hand on her waist suddenly tightened, encircling her back into his arms, and the two were even closer than before.
Her back was pressed against his chest, and his temperature and breath were so clear that her heart beat out of rhythm. She tried to calm her emotions, and gently rubbed to the side of the bed again, Ji Yufan held her very solidly, and it was difficult for her to leave without waking him up.
And every time she just made a little progress, his hand would take her back. She even began to suspect that he was pretending to be asleep!
After her failed action again, they were closer together, and she clearly felt his "Uncle Chen", the sign full of hormones, hard and hot against her, so that her heart instantly missed a few beats.
She got up and got out of bed suddenly, her face red all the way to the base of her ears.
"Are you awake?" Ji Yufan opened his eyes, scratched his head, and stood up.
"I'm going to wash up!" Ye Yanran ran into the bathroom in a hurry and closed the door tightly.
She looked at herself in the mirror, her cheeks were crimson, her lips were slightly swollen, and her heart was full of spring. She rubbed her swollen head vigorously, washed her face with cold water, and suppressed the frenzy in her heart.
"Bah, bah, bah" Ji Yufan knocked on the door outside, "Yanran, I'll go back over there first, and I'll send you over early later." ”
This was followed by the sound of the security door closing.
Ye Yanran took a good bath, she drank a little too much last night, not only her mind was swollen, her body was full of alcohol, but her memory was vague.
She only remembered that Shangguan Yu went home, Ji Yufan went downstairs to send it, and she was drinking upstairs alone. As for when Ji Yufan came back and what happened then, she had no memory at all.
However, it is not difficult to infer that Ji Yufan helped her back to the room to rest, but why did he sleep next to him?
Was he drunk too? Or did he do something shameful again? The second time! This was the second time she had drunk and made a mistake!
Ye Yanran thumped her head hard!
Fortunately, her body did not feel soreness and discomfort, and they should not have had a super-friendly relationship.
This made her breathe a sigh of relief, if she borrowed alcohol to commit murder again, she really didn't know how to end up. It's bad enough to say that you are an ordinary friend, but you have a reverie about him that you shouldn't have, but if you put it into action again, it will be terrible!
Ye Yanran made coffee, sat on the sofa in a daze with a coffee cup, drank the wine, and vented her emotions, but the problem did not disappear.
"Don't drink it! What problem can you solve with that?"
"What problem can I solve if I don't drink?"
Sporadic words flashed through her mind. Oh my God, she went crazy last night!
The image of their kiss flashed by, and before she could tell whether it was her reverie or the fragments of her memory, it was gone. She must be crazy and has been fantasizing about him more and more lately!
A hurried knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.
The door opened, and Ji Yufan's excited voice rushed to his face, "Look, look! You won, you won!"
Ye Yanran's brain had not yet fully connected to the line, and a "Yaju" magazine fell into her hands.
She stared at the cover of the company's annual magazine in a daze, which was a group photo entitled Ten Years, and the editors of "Yaju" magazine appeared in various postures or standing or sitting against the gray and black background, similar to the design of the poster of this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.
"Look!" Ji Yufan flipped to the second cover and pointed to Ye Yanran, "Your design is all your design." ”
Ji Yufan hugged Ye Yanran and jumped excitedly, "You won! Win! Let Cheng Xin go to hell!"
Life is like this, when you are determined to lose, it will send you a reversal, and when you get carried away, it will give you a basin of cold water.
So even if the results come out, Ye Yanran doesn't dare to be too proud, who can guarantee that after the complacency, there will be no bigger thunder waiting for you?
"Aren't you happy?" Ji Yufan saw that Ye Yanran was not interested.
Ye Yanran flipped through the "Yaju" in her hand, "Actually, it can't be regarded as a win, after all, neither of us is on the cover, let's tie!"
"Who said that? Look at it, isn't it?" Ji Yufan pointed to a few lines of headlines on the cover.
""Blank Space: A New Way to Play Small Apartment Decoration", "Singleness is Not the Original Sin: The Wisdom of a Beautiful Designer", your design and your interview are all on this cover. The whole magazine didn't have anything to do with her Cheng Xin, and took photos for a long time, but none of them were used, to see what face she still had left in Shangcheng. ”
Ji Yufan's statement is really a bit tricky, but he is provocative to Cheng Xin when he has nothing to do, and he has long been annoyed by finding trouble for Ye Yanran, and he can't drive her away from Shangcheng immediately.
But Ye Yanran had her considerations, "You can say these things here, don't say them when you go to the company, you know? Even if there are other people talking about it, you should leave quickly, don't participate." ”
"Why? You still walk around such a good opportunity to beat the water dogs?"
Ye Yanran said lightly: "You just listen to me, that's right." ”
Her idea is that if Cheng Xin resigns by herself and the company approves it, of course it is best, but if one of the two parties does not agree, she will not force it. Although it is quite annoying to have a colleague like Cheng Xin, where do you go to work, can you still meet a few annoying colleagues?
When Cheng Xin is gone, Zhang Xin and Li Xin will naturally appear, no matter how they are all dealt with, why should they care who it is? What's more, after Cheng Xin has survived this blow, even if he stays, he will have to be a man with his tail between his legs for a long time in the future, which is more worry-free than a newcomer.
In fact, if it weren't for Cheng Xin who kept pressing her step by step, she wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to it at all.
"Why?" Ji Yufan couldn't figure out this, so he kept pestering Ye Yanran to ask why.
"Okay, okay, you're almost 100,000 to do!" Ye Yanran put down the magazine in her hand, "Let's go, I'm happy today, I invite you out for morning tea." ”
She chose Fengcheng Restaurant, an old Hong Kong-style restaurant in J City, with retro and nostalgic decoration, old-style tenement buildings, and simple booths, which are completely the appearance of Cantonese teahouses in Hong Kong-made films in the eighties and nineties.
They chose a few Cantonese dim sum recommended by the restaurant, asked for a pot of tea, and calmed down to enjoy a rare leisure.
Ye Yanran touched her lips, which were still slightly swollen, and had some thoughts in her heart, she asked tentatively in a low voice, "Did I go crazy with alcohol last night?"
Ji Yufan was stunned for a moment, "You don't remember?"
Ye Yanran flicked her bangs a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "It's broken!"
Ji Yufan's heart was slightly disappointed, he had been worried about her reaction this morning, he didn't know if she would ignore him again like last time. Later, when I saw that everything was going on with her, I thought maybe she was starting to accept herself. But it turned out that I was thinking too much.
Then, he comforted himself and said that at least he didn't have to worry about her ignoring him!
Ye Yanran saw that he had been silent and didn't speak, and buried her head in her palm in annoyance, "I knew that I must be crazy with alcohol, otherwise I don't know how to hit my mouth and swell?"
Ji Yufan wanted to tell her that her mouth was not swollen by a bump, but swollen by his kiss.
Ye Yanran quietly observed his reaction from between her fingers, and after finding nothing unusual, she raised her head and looked at him hopefully, "Can you delete my bad appearance last night in your mind? ”
Ji Yufan smiled bitterly: "Why do you like to ask people to delete their memories so much, and treat it as if it didn't happen?"
Ye Yanran's face turned red all of a sudden, yes, it seems that her black history is getting more and more.
Seeing that she was embarrassed, he couldn't bear it anymore, "You went to bed after drinking last night, and you didn't look bad at all." If it's bad, it's that the place where you sleep is a little bad. You're sitting on the carpet and leaning on the couch, and you're asleep, with an empty bottle in your hand, and I really wanted to take a picture of you. ”
"You won't really shoot it, will you?" Ye Yanran saw that he seemed to be like him, and she was convinced. It seems that those passionate pictures are all fantasized by herself, alas, why is she so lustful now!
"Nope. ”
"No, you show me your phone. Ye Yanran stretched out her hand uncomfortably and asked Ji Yufan for her mobile phone.
Ji Yufan handed her the phone, "Look at it yourself, there really isn't." ”
Ye Yanran opened the photo album on her mobile phone, there was nothing in it except for their group photo, she looked at the group photo, and said sincerely: "This one is really good." ”
"Well, I want to wash it out and put it in a picture frame, how about one for each of us?"
"Yes. Ye Yanran touched her lips again, she was swollen like this, and she always felt a little awkward when eating.
"Don't touch it! I don't know how you got drunk! When I send Shangguan back, your mouth will swell like this. Eighty percent of you accidentally hit the bottle mouth while drinking! It's okay, I've been in this situation too, and I'll be fine in a while. ”
Ye Yanran touched her lips and wanted to ask him how they slept together, but the situation in the morning was too difficult to describe, so don't mention it!
"What are your plans for the next few days of vacation?" asked Ji Yufan. This is the first vacation they have spent together! He has already decided that Ye Yanran is his girlfriend in his heart, so every bit of time they spend together is meaningful.
Ye Yanran took a sip of tea and said, "I want to go to work tomorrow." ”
"What?" Ji Yufan's eyes widened.
Don't forget that the company's stores are not closed, and doing our business is the same as shopping malls and restaurants, and the more public holidays, the more customers. I'll take a look, there's nothing else to do anyway. ”
Ji Yufan was really defeated by her, except for work, it seems that she has no other hobbies.
"What about today? It's not going to go back to work preparations, is it?"
"Today, I remember there was a movie show at Broadway Studios, and I wanted to go see it. What about you?"
"Then I'm going to see a movie show too. ”
"Hurry up and eat, I remember the first one was at 10 a.m. ”
On the way, Su Yan and others sent congratulatory messages one after another, everyone was happy for Ye Yanran, she needed good news so much recently.
"Thank you, put on heavy makeup at eight o'clock in the evening, let's have a good get-together, I'm in for a treat." Call all of you members of the Vengeance Pack, and thank you all for helping me during this time. Ye Yanran said on the phone.
Hanging up the phone, she looked at Ji Yufan, who was peeking at her while driving, "If you want, let's be with you at night! ”
Originally, even if Ye Yanran didn't invite him, Ji Yufan planned to follow quietly, if nothing else, as long as he thought that there were two threats in their group, Shao Jie and A Monster, he had to keep an eye on it.
Broadway Studios is a stylish cinema. It stands next to the water, and in addition to selling tickets and some essential snacks for watching movies, the first floor also has many movie-related books. The second and third floors are the screening halls, and there is a large rest area outside the screening hall, and posters of various styles of movies of various eras are hung at the same time.
Ye Yanran looked at the introduction and poster of the films screened this time on the first floor, thinking about how to arrange them to see the most of their favorite films in a day.
"Wow! There are also classic films like "Moonlight Treasure Box". "Ji Yufan is like discovering a new continent.
"This is a film exhibition jointly organized by the Cultural Affairs Bureau of Hong Kong and J City, so the arrangements are all classic Hong Kong films. Ye Yanran pointed to the poster of "Moonlight Treasure Box", "Are you sure you want to see this?"
Ji Yufan nodded, "Cantonese version! I can hear Xing Ye's original voice!"
"Okay, I'll go buy a ticket, you can go over there and buy something to eat. ”
Ye Yanran and Ji Yufan Bing bought what they wanted to buy in two ways.
Ji Yufan followed Ye Yanran to the screening room on the second floor by escalator, Ye Yanran turned around and said, "You go up one floor, Hall 5." ”
"What?" Ji Yufan was stunned.
"Your Moonlight Treasure Box is in Hall 5 on the third floor. Ye Yanran pointed to the ticket in Ji Yufan's hand.
"Don't you see it?" Ji Yufan still didn't figure out the situation.
"I watch "Crazy Robbery", a New Wave film, not for you. Ye Yanran pushed him, "Go ahead! The movie is about to start." ”
Ji Yufan looked at Ye Yanran's hurried back, still confused in his heart, there are still people who watch movies with others like this?
"Crazy Robbery" is Ann Hui's debut novel, and together with Tsui Hark's "Butterfly Change" and Zhang Guoming's "Pointing Soldiers", it marks the official birth of the Hong Kong New Wave.
Although the film is of far-reaching significance, there are very few people who will actually go to the theater and give Ann Hua a movie ticket. The screening room was empty with only a few people.
Although there are few people watching the movie, as with all movie-watching experiences, there are still people talking, some people being late, and some people calling.
The lights in the screening room dimmed, and a person sat next to Ye Yanran with his mobile phone to light the way, and pushed the popcorn in his hand into her arms, "Here." ”
Ye Yanran was shocked to realize that this late person was Ji Yufan!
"I'll take a look at what the new wave is so awesome. He lowered his voice and whispered in her ear.
90 minutes later, Ji Yufan rubbed his sleepy eyes and came out of the screening hall with Ye Yanran.
Ye Yanran was angry and funny about his performance, and if she didn't watch her favorite movie, she wanted to force herself to come over and suffer, which was equivalent to wasting two movie tickets in vain.
"What are we going to do next?" Ji Yufan regained his excitement.
Ye Yanran looked at the sea report on the first floor: "I plan to watch "The True Story of A Fei" at 12 o'clock, "Running to the Angry Sea" at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and "Lover" at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. ”
"You're going to stay here for a day?"
"It's rare to have a film festival, so just watch a few more. What about you? What's next?"
Ji Yufan put his hand on Ye Yanran's shoulder, "I'm with you, where you go, where I'll go." ”
"I'm not a child, so I don't need you to accompany me. Go play with your little friends!"
"You're my little friend, and I just want to play with you. ”
"Okay then!" Ye Yanran glanced at the screening arrangement on the display board again and said, "There is still "Moonlight Treasure Box" at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, you can go and watch it." ”
"No, I'm going to be with you. Ji Yufan just wanted to stay by Ye Yanran's side, he didn't understand why he always wanted to be close to her before, but now that he understands, he is even more reluctant to leave.
"Running to the Angry Sea is a New Wave movie, it's not for you, you can choose what you like to watch! I don't want you to sleep next to me again. ”
"Then will you accompany me to watch "Moonlight Treasure Box", Ji Yufan pulled Ye Yanran's sleeve and was coquettish and cute, "That's also classic, very good-looking, you can't look down on comedy, okay?"
Ye Yanran was so entangled by him that she had no choice but to agree, Ji Yufan was so happy that she rushed to buy a ticket, lest she regret it again.
He didn't know how to pursue a girl, and it was those girls who took the initiative to come over to him before, and he was annoyed to death. Ye Yanran was the first girl he really wanted to pursue, and Chang Huan said that he was like a difficult challenge. Challenge it!
Although he still came up with some great way to chase her down at once. However, isn't there a word called long-term love, and it is always wrong to increase the time spent together and cultivate common hobbies.
The two watched another six hours of movies in one go, and simply bought a sandwich at the commissary at noon to satisfy their hunger.
In the evening, Ji Yufan leaned against Ye Yanran and came out of the theater, and said coquettishly: "My legs are so sore!"
"You walk well!"
"But I can't straighten my legs now, and I need support. "He didn't want to miss such a good opportunity to stick to her!
"I said I wanted you to play by yourself, but you preferred to stay, and now you're shouting tired and cheating. I'm too tired to support you!"
As soon as Ji Yufan heard Ye Yanran say that he was tired, he immediately stood up straight and asked, "Are you tired?" The seat design of the theater is unreasonable, the line spacing is too small, and the feet can't be straightened, can you not be tired? Come, I'll carry you." ”
"I don't need you to carry it, you just need to walk well, let's hurry up and eat now, and we have to put on heavy makeup at night!"
Ji Yufan tilted his head and looked at Ye Yanran, "Why do you take a break from work, it's like a war, and the schedule is so full?"
"Is there one?" Ye Yanran thought for a while, "I slept lazily this morning, drank morning tea, watched my favorite movie again, and arranged a party with friends in the evening, isn't this enough rest?"
"Except for sleeping, any one or two other things are done in one day, which is considered rest, but if you are all lined up in one day, and the schedule is as intensive as you usually go to work, it is not counted. ”
"Haven't you heard of an inch of time and an inch of gold, I don't want to spend a lot of money, I'm a very frugal person. ”
Ji Yufan, who was starting the car, laughed out loud when he heard Ye Yanran's theory of cherishing time, "Okay! Miss Thrifty, where are we going to eat?"
"Let's cup Moting! I have been saying that I want to treat you to a good meal since I met you, but I haven't invited you until now, so I will make it up for you today. ”
Ji Yufan whistled, "Miss Thrifty, not thrifty!"
Cup Moting is the highest standard Japanese restaurant in J City, and the price of a meal is expensive, but this is not enough to make Ji Yufan happy, he is happy because of this location, it is more like a couple dating.
However, how can a couple date get his girlfriend to settle the bill? So, at the end of dinner, he took the opportunity to go to the bathroom and quietly settled the bill.
"It's so expensive here, let's run away!" he deliberately muttered in Ye Yanran's ear after he came back.
"How do you escape?"
Ji Yufan didn't think about this problem seriously, he said with a grin: "Just run directly! As long as the speed is fast enough, it's fine, what kind of technical content does this need." ”
Ye Yanran squinted and said, "You just settled the account?"
Ji Yufan flattened his mouth and said: "You hate it, why are you so smart, it's not fun at all!"
"It's because you have a low IQ and play such a low-end trick! How much is the total amount of money, I will transfer it to you on WeChat. Ye Yanran said and took out her mobile phone to prepare to transfer.
"Don't. How can there be a reason to come out to eat and let the girl settle the bill. ”
Ye Yanran glanced at him, "I didn't see that you are young and have straight male cancer." ”
"I'm demeanor, demeanor, do you understand?"
"You have to show your demeanor and go down, this meal is a thanksgiving feast, and I should invite it. ”
"Your thank-you feast is wearing heavy makeup tonight, and you can't treat it differently. "He doesn't want such a distinction!
Ye Yanran didn't resist him in the end, so she had to compromise. She is usually not a person who is easy to compromise, on the contrary, she is very stubborn and insistent on her own opinions, but when she meets Ji Yufan, she always gives in easily.
Just like watching a movie today and giving up "Running to the Angry Sea", she doesn't know if she will have the opportunity to see this work in the cinema in her life. But because of Ji Yufan, she had no principled compromise. And it doesn't feel like a loss.
She turned her head sideways and looked at Ji Yufan, who was concentrating on driving, he was really a handsome boy, with just the right facial lines, evenly colored eyebrows, a high nose bridge, plump and ruddy lips, handsome as a work of art.
However, what she likes most is the sunny breath on his body, which always brings her back to life when she is low.
Her gaze inadvertently fell on his lips, and the beautiful image flashed in her mind, and she hurriedly withdrew her gaze, her palms sweating slightly.
