Chapter 242: The call of the Lantern Festival (there will be three more for the public and the enemy later)
"It's only now that I think about winning over people, it's too late, right?" finally sent Andy Lau away, Jin Zhongming muttered in his heart and put this matter down, as long as he does things right, can the other party still blame himself, even if he really offends people, he doesn't care, the ghost knows if he can still cooperate with you in the second half of his life?
The next day, during the Lantern Festival holiday, Kim Jong-ming did not go out or return to South Korea, but just held a copy of "The Appearance of Officialdom" and put a chair in the courtyard rented by the crew, and then looked at it all day, making the staff who came and go stupid. And in the evening, he usually participated in the Lantern Festival dinner, eating and drinking is also a very effective way to connect feelings, in fact, after this meal, several young actors have called him Brother Zhong Ming.
After dinner, for the next day's shooting, Kim Jong-ming returned to the room early, called his family, sent a message of blessing to his friends, and then cleaned up and prepared to rest. However, at about eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, when Jin Zhongming was already asleep, the mobile phone rang.
In the haze, Jin Zhongming didn't look at the words on it, he directly pressed the phone and put it to his ear, and in order to save trouble, he also lay down on his side and put the phone directly on his face.
"Youbothio. ”
"Youbo Xiyou~"
This is a little girl's voice, a little familiar, Jin Zhongming couldn't think clearly for a while, but he also knew that it should be an acquaintance who did know, and the negative emotions in the voice were obvious, I am afraid that there was really something to say. So he immediately rolled over and sat up, and at the same time the sleepiness disappeared without a trace. glanced at the caller ID on it, it was Zheng Endi.
"Grace. Is there something going on?"
"Nothing. I just want to talk to you. Have you already slept? I'm going to say a lot. If you don't want to hear it, hang up!" Zheng Endi's voice was full of grievances and anger.
"Oh!" Jin Zhongming replied, and then hung up the phone.
Zheng Endi on the other side of the phone cried at that time. Today, she is full of grievances and dissatisfaction and just wants to find someone to talk to, but two people in a row hung up her phone, how can she be embarrassed?
"Whatever kind of relatives, whatever you can find me if you have something, it's all a lie!" Zheng Endi held her mobile phone and ran directly to the outside of the yard of her house and shouted at the night sky, she didn't dare to shout in the house and yard, for fear of alarming her sleeping mother and brother. After all, my mother has to work hard tomorrow, and my younger brother is about to start school, of course, whether I have to go to class tomorrow is another matter.
However, just as the cold wind was blowing in the tears of the little Kanban Niang's house, the mobile phone in her hand suddenly rang, which startled her.
"It must have been Kim Jong-myung calling!" Jung thought so trying not to look at his phone.
"What if he really repents?" After five seconds, the little Kanban Niang faltered.
"Or take it, how can I say that I am also at fault for calling in the middle of the night. Ten seconds later, Endi decided to answer the phone directly, but when he looked closely, the caller ID was actually 'ignorant little hairy'.
That's right. It's Krystal.
Jung Eun-di only wondered for five seconds before he thought he understood what was going on, that is, Kim Jong-myung's phone was out of battery. But I shouldn't have slept yet, so I found my sister's mobile phone and called. Well, it seems that I really misunderstood.
"Youbothio. ”
"Youbo Xiyou, dear, if you have anything to say, tell me now. Kim Jong-ming's voice was a little muffled, and some noise was sandwiched in the call.
"Well, why is your voice so noisy?" Endi didn't rush to talk, but asked other questions curiously. "And is Krystal next to you? will she eavesdrop?"
"Well, I'm afraid so. Jin Zhongming thought for a moment and gave a helpless answer.
"Then you get rid of this little girl. Endi gave the order without hesitation.
"Hey~, I'm afraid I can't get rid of this. Jin Zhongming replied speechlessly.
"Why?" asked Zheng Endi angrily.
"Because I'm in Hebei, China, she's in Seoul. Jin Zhongming explained helplessly.
"The more I listened, the more confused I became. Zheng Endi couldn't figure it out at all.
"That's right, didn't you just ask me why I have so much noise?
"Hmm. ”
"Because I didn't call you directly, I called Sika in Seoul in China, and then Krystal called you in Busan, and then I connected Sika, who was also at home in Seoul, to Krystal's mobile phone upside down. Jin Zhongming explained awkwardly. "That's why there's so much noise, and why I can't get rid of Krystal who might be eavesdropping. ”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then the voice of the little Kanban Niang rang again.
"Thank you, dear. ”
"I'm not that. The other party's thanks made Kim Jong-ming even more embarrassed. "It's too expensive for you to call an international call from South Korea, I'm not"
"I'm not a kid anymore, I don't have to take care of my self-esteem, thank you so much for thinking of me. Endi's calm voice came clearly. "It really hurts my self-esteem, but an international call will really cost me a lot of pocket money, I've called"
"Hah!" of course Jin Zhongming knew what the other party was talking about. "You secretly called your father?"
"Hmm. The other side answered softly.
"Did you call today?" Jin Zhongming remembered the aggrieved voice in the little girl's first phone call, and considering that there were probably few things that could make the always strong little Kanban Niang so sad, he basically guessed the reason why Endi called today.
You're still as smart as you were last summer, and you can guess without saying anything. At this moment, Eundi, who was in Busan, probably felt a little cold outside, so he walked back to his yard, closed the door, and then leaned against the door panel and said. "In the evening, when my father was in Saudi Arabia at noon, he called to wish us a happy Lantern Festival. Mom asked him when he would come back, but he said he wasn't going to come back for a whole year."
"And then you got angry, and called him yourself?" asked Kim Jong-ming with a smile.
"I'm not angry that he won't come!" Endi's voice was visibly high-pitched. "I'm angry that he didn't keep his agreement! If he doesn't come back, he won't come back, but he clearly said that he would come back for the New Year, and I made a lot of preparations with Minji."
"And he didn't come?"
"Well, it's the New Year, and I called to say that there are few people during the New Year, and those who are willing to work overtime will receive double wages this month. I wasn't incomprehensible, and although I was angry, I agreed. But he comforted me at the time, saying that he would try to come back if he had the opportunity to come back for the Lantern Festival. ”
"Then didn't come?" Jin Zhongming actually wanted to say, after half a month of time and your mouth's relay, my father's words still sound perfunctory, don't you understand such a smart person? It's just that he suddenly thought that Endi and other people's fathers are father and daughter, and the relationship is there, even if it is perfunctory, it has weight, so he swallowed the words that had already reached his mouth again.
"Well, I didn't come again!" Endi's voice suddenly cried, no matter how strong a person is, he has weaknesses, not to mention that Endi is actually just a little girl. "He said he would come as much as he could, but now he told me he wouldn't be back for a whole year, so I was so angry that I called him. But he told him to hang up when he was busy with work!"
Kim Jong-ming was silent, what could he say? Accuse other people of their father's hard work of trying to make money and pay off their debts? Or accuse Eundi, a little girl who is only a teenager who has to go to school, look after a shop, and take care of her younger brother, for wanting to see her father? Both behaviors are taken for granted, but the roles are different and the focus is different. Now Endi is not angry at all but sad, all he can do is listen to the little girl's cry quietly from a distance of thousands of miles.
Eun Di was sobbing and saying something illogical, intermittently talking about the birth of Minji to the fight between her and Krystal, in short, it was completely venting, while Kim Jong Ming was listening quietly, comforting from time to time.
At the same time, on the sofa at Sika's house in the Donghu neighborhood of Seoul, Sika was holding Krystal's head and trying to get a good position to hear more clearly, but Krystal, who was no worse than his sister in height and physical strength, resolutely refused to let go in a non-violent and non-cooperative posture, and the two eavesdropped on other people's phone calls in such a strange posture. Well, it's actually their own phone numbers.
Endi's narration continued from more than eleven o'clock to half past twelve, and she slowly stopped crying and thanked Jin Zhongming.
"Thank you for listening to me ramble for so long. ”
"Don't worry, we're close to each other! If you have something to worry about, just call me, this is what I told you before. ”
"Then I'm hanging!"
"Good!" Kim Jong Ming promised. "You hang first. ”
Immediately, there was silence on the other side of the phone, but the noise was still there, Jin Zhongming was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the other party had actually hung up, but his call with Sika was still there.
"You two go to bed early, you have to start school tomorrow, right?" said Jin Zhongming to the two eavesdroppers on the other end of the arc.
"Wood, if I'm bullied like Min-ki, do you want Jung Eun-di to come over and stand up for me like that Busan aunt?" Krystal asked a question she had wanted to ask since she heard Eun-di's story.
"I'll go!" replied Sika. "You don't want to ask Wood such a boring question. ”
Jin Zhongming was stunned for a moment, then laughed and pressed the phone.
