It must be said that Ye Qing's words all spoke to An Zhizhi's heart.

Since the two of them have been together, Shen Yanru has always been planning for her, thinking about everything in front, and there is nothing inappropriate. An knew that he was moved and happy, and he couldn't help but want to do something for Shen Yanru.

And although Shen Yanru usually seems to have a cold temperament and rarely mentions things at home, An knows that she doesn't care about these things at all. It's just that they've always been so estranged from each other, and even if they want to improve their relationship, they don't know where to start, so they've been deadlocked until now.

If he can become this opportunity, An Zhizhi is naturally very happy.

However, for her, in addition to what Ye Qing said, there is a more important reason for her to consider shifting her career focus abroad. That is, the environment abroad is much more open than at home. Although many people in the circle are still secretive about sexuality, it is much better overall. And singers are not like actors, they are more individual, they are more uninhibited, and there are many people who come out of the closet.

An knew that he didn't want to come out, he just hoped that he and Shen Yanru could get along with each other a little more.

In fact, she didn't tell anyone, in fact, when she knew that she was going to visit her family with Shen Yanru, she had already vaguely had such a plan in her heart.

However, at that time, it was not easy for An Zhizhi to take this road, after all, countless seniors fell on this road. So we need to take a long-term view.

But if there is the Shen family to help from it, it will be much easier.

Therefore, Ye Qing was still a little apprehensive when he brought it up, for fear that An Zhi would not be willing to accept this kind of help. After all, everything she gets now is her own, and for young people, she naturally prefers to rely on herself rather than relying on her elders and family background to achieve success.

However, An Zhizhi did not have such thoughts. If you want to say that she has today, An knows that most of the credit is due to Shen Yanru, and she is not relying on herself after all. In this case, there is no need to worry about these things at this time.

Besides, this is actually a way to bring Shen Yanru closer to the Shen family. Otherwise, even if she returns to the United States, the relationship between them will probably still be unfamiliar and polite, and it will be difficult to get close.

So she immediately agreed, which made Ye Qing surprised and delighted.

"Good boy, good boy...... "She took An Xiaoxiao's hand, "I liked you the first time I saw you, you should be a member of our Shen family, what a good boy, with you by Xiaoru's side, we can rest assured in the future." ”

An Zhizhi's heart was inexplicably moved. When Ye Qing is not convulsive, he is still a very reliable elder. Maybe it's because of his seniority, even if he is not very old, but he still looks like that. Speaking and doing things has its own convincing aura.

However, her emotion here only came to her head, and Ye Qing had already put away her emotion over there, and asked with a smile, "To tell me the truth, have you and Xiaoru ever thought about coming out publicly?" ”

"This ......" The topic changed too quickly, and An knew that he couldn't come back to his senses, "There shouldn't be any for the time being, right?" ”

It's really uncomfortable to talk to Ye Qing about this kind of topic.

But she never expected that there would be something even more uncomfortable. Ye Qing nodded and said, "Also, the current environment is not so tolerant, and making it public will also have an impact on your career." But......" she looked at Shen Yanru expectantly, "You two interact more, and it's okay to send some candy to the fans, right?" ”

Send some sugar? What kind of candy is sent? What fans to give candy?

An Zhiran looked at Ye Qing with a smile, and last time she said that she was a CP fan, it was really not a joke, so speaking of which, the CP circle called Tianlan produced a lot of grain...... Could it really be her?!

Although he had guessed this, Ann knew that he sincerely hoped that it was not. However, it now seems that any fluke mentality is just wishful thinking......

Ye Qing patted her shoulder and smiled meaningfully, "I understand." Then he got up and walked away.

It wasn't until Shen Yanru came over with anxiety that An Zhizhi came back to his senses. She suddenly felt a little afraid of her future life in the United States, if Ye Qing had such a convulsion from time to time, she really didn't know how to deal with it!

"What did she say?" Seeing An Zhizhi's sluggish face, Shen Yanru couldn't help but ask.

She thought it shouldn't be a big deal, because she could see that her grandfather and Ye Qing liked An Zhizhi very much. But now it seems that there is still a place where I have imagined?

"Say let me think about it, shift your career focus here, and you can be with your family often." An Zhizhi said.

Shen Yanru paused slightly and asked, "You don't want to?" ”

"Nope." An knew that Shen Yanru had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "Of course I'm very happy, if I don't say anything else, isn't going international what every singer in China is looking forward to?" Since I have this opportunity, of course I will not turn it down. ”

She knew that Shen Yanru would not be persuaded to say anything else, and when she mentioned her star path, she would be extra concerned.

Sure enough, Shen Yanru nodded and said, "That's true, you think very thoughtfully." "It's not that An knows that there is no way to develop in China now, but because of the limitations of the market and various aspects, whether she is popular or otherwise, I am afraid that she will have to stagnate in her current position for a long time.

This is also very normal, after all, no matter how talented a person is, he always needs a little time to polish himself and polish his work. And prestige is such a thing, the more difficult it is to grow in the end, and it is good to stagnate. But at this time, if you can find another way, you naturally don't have to be confined to a predicament.

Although the Shen family raised this point, it is estimated that it will not be considered in this regard, but since it is beneficial to An Zhizhi, Shen Yanru has no need to object.

"In that case, why are you on this expression?" She reached out and touched An Zhizhi's face, "It's like I've lost my soul." ”

An Zhizhi thought about it, although he felt very embarrassed, he still told Shen Yanru Ye Qing's words, and then said helplessly, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to parry her in the future." ”

"Just ignore it." Shen Yanru seemed very calm, and said, "I guess she is deliberately teasing you, the more you can't let go, the more you care, the more interesting she will be." If you ignore it, she won't find it interesting and won't mention it again. ”

"I'll give it a try." Ann knew that he was not sure.

The point is, how could she not care about this kind of thing?

Ye Qing's movements were very fast, An only agreed when he knew this, and everyone who should know over there knew it.

Xiang Yujie was the first to come to An to know. After crying before, she seemed to have finally found her way, and soon regained her spirits and looked radiant. Her previous temperament was too quiet, and now it is like a pool of water suddenly coming to life, giving people a feeling that is more similar to An Zhizhi.

She came to An to know that she wanted to explain to her the Xiang family's property here. Although she is now the only one left, the Xiang family was once a famous family after all, and when she interacted with a Chinese family like the Shen family and the Xu family, she naturally had a deep heritage. Maybe it's not as good as the two in terms of money, but it has also purchased a lot of properties here. In addition, the various collectibles accumulated by the ancestors of the family can be said to be priceless if they are really sold.

And now, Xiang Yujie is planning to hand over these things to An Zhi. He even brought a lawyer with him when he came to her.

An Zhi was startled and hurriedly excused himself. Although they have already confessed their relatives, they have been separated for many years after all, and what is going on will not be known until the person sent to investigate comes back. At this time, Ann knew that he could not accept these things with peace of mind no matter what.

The temperament of the Xiang family is very stubborn and stubborn, but Xiang Yujie still couldn't screw An Zhi in the end, so he had to say, "Anyway, I left all this to you in my heart." If you don't want it now, I'll take care of it for you for the time being, and the future will always be yours. ”

An knew that she wanted to ask her why she didn't get married and have children, but after thinking about it, she still didn't ask. Since she decided so, it naturally makes sense, maybe she can ask after she gets acquainted with it in the future, but it is not appropriate at this time.

Even blood relatives need time to accumulate feelings.

……

Although it was decided to shift the focus of the career, it was not an overnight thing, at least it was necessary to be prepared, slowly pave the way and publicize, and finally it was best to go abroad as a matter of course. Otherwise, she ran out so headlessly, knowing that she was going to open up foreign markets, and those who didn't know thought she couldn't get along in China.

So after breaking five, An Xiaoxiao and Shen Yanru packed up their things and returned to China.

Although Grandpa Shen wanted to leave the cat owner Dahua in the ancestral house, it was impossible for the whole family to agree, and in the end, An knew that they could only pack it up and bring it back.

When he was in the Shen family, he spent most of his time locked in his room and couldn't go out, and when he got off the plane and came back, he immediately ran away as soon as he entered the community, and he didn't have the meaning of "tiring journey" for half a minute.

Shen Yanru and An knew that they were helpless, so they had to leave it to play outside. Fortunately, the environment here is very familiar, and even a few younger brothers have been accepted here, and the community is strictly managed, and there will be no outsiders coming, so there is nothing to worry about.

After placing the things he brought back, Shen Yanru called Zhou Yu and Xuan Zihang and asked them to come over for a meeting. An Zhixiao is the only artist signed by the studio, if her career is going to develop abroad, then the impact on the studio can also be imagined, how to arrange it next, but she needs to come up with a plan.

Zhou Yu was shocked when he heard that the two had gone home to meet their parents, and they had agreed not to say anything, and even the Shen family supported An Zhizhi to develop there. "You two are really good, and you haven't revealed any information beforehand. If you hadn't decided to go abroad, would you have to continue to hide it? Oh my God, it's just been a year, and you're pretty fast. I can imagine how the fans will react when they find out about it. ”

"It's good to be able to take the international route." In comparison, Xuan Zihang seems to be much more professional.

Zhou Yu rolled his eyes, "Of course it's a good thing, haven't you seen so many people who want to leave but can't go?" The problem is that these two people, who didn't reveal anything beforehand, are now asking me to clean up the mess, do you think it's right? ”

An Zhizhi and Shen Yanru had no choice but to give her the gifts they brought back in advance, and said a basket of good things, which made Zhou Yu turn to joy, "For the sake of the gift, I forgive you this time." By the way, after the two of you go abroad, will you consider getting a certificate? ”

Shen Yanru and An Zhi glanced at each other and said, "If you have such a plan at that time, you must be the first to tell you." ”

"That's pretty much it."

After the joke was over, Zhou Yu also got to the point, "It's easy to solve this matter, it's nothing more than publicity in place, and it can even raise An Zhi's status in the circle a lot in one fell swoop, which is very good for her career." At least the endorsement fee will go up a lot. The key is whether the studio should also move in with it. ”

It stands to reason that there are so many people in the studio, and the work revolves around An Zhixiao, so they should go to the United States with them. However, they have a lot of investment projects here, and they also need to be watched. Besides, An Zhixiao and Shen Yanru will not come back if they don't go, the international market must be seized, and the domestic ones cannot be let go. - Now that foreign stars are looking forward to entering China, this kind of home advantage naturally cannot be lost.

Xuan Zihang thought for a while and said, "The studio should stay and deal with domestic affairs." Knowing that you can sign another company over there, it is more conducive to development. ”

This situation is not unprecedented, anyway, there is no conflict between the domestic market and the international market, so artists who are developing on both sides can sign a double contract, which is equivalent to handing over the overseas part of the work to the company over there, and the domestic studio is still responsible for it.

"In that case, the studio would be an empty shelf." Zhou Yu said, "In fact, you can consider signing a few newcomers, and take advantage of An Zhizhi's limelight to cultivate them well, and the prospects are considerable." There have been quite a few people who have come to ask about this recently, so you two can think about it. ”

An Zhizhi looked at Shen Yanru.

In fact, the reason why Shen Yanru decided to sign only An Zhizhi one person, and only wrote lyrics and music for An Zhizhi one person, was because the two people were not in this relationship at that time, and they were in a hazy period when their relationship had just been held, because they didn't know how to be good to An, so they simply decided to make her the "unique", so that the two people were tied together, and no one could do without each other.

However, time has passed, and now the two have long been inseparable, and there is no need to restrict them with this form of things. And if the newcomer is signed, it is also more in line with Shen Yanru's idea of erasing the special relationship between the two in front of the media.

So Shen Yanru hesitated, then nodded and agreed, "Yes, you can be responsible for this matter, and then bring it to me to choose after you determine the candidate." ”

"I can also recommend a few people." Ann raised his hand.

Among the newcomers who were brought out by Shen Yanru in their previous life, there are also a few worthy of training. And the conduct is also good, many years later, I still remember that it was Shen Yanru who introduced them to the door, and I am very grateful. Although the meaning of putting on a show in front of the media is not ruled out, at least they are willing to say it.

"If that's the case, I hope to slow down the matter of going abroad to develop." Zhou Yu said, "Let An know that staying in China with newcomers can save a lot of effort." Otherwise, if you go abroad, you won't be able to borrow it even if you want to. ”

"How long?" Shen Yanru asked.

Zhou Yu thought for a while, "One year is enough." In fact, it means to bring in the door, with the name of "An knows the same brother/sister", and it is almost the same to attend the event together. As for whether he can come out or not, in the final analysis, he still has to return to his own works.

A year is not a long time, and An Zhixiao and Shen Yanru themselves also have a lot of things to arrange, such as An Zhizhi's endorsement contract, and for example, Shen Yanru's "Music Dream Stage", I didn't expect to leave before, so when I invited her in the second season, Shen Yanru agreed very simply.

In addition to that, fans need a little time to buffer as well.

After reaching this agreement, the rest of the matter is much simpler, and after a few people discuss it for a while, they will arrange it properly.

Because there is not much time, it is inevitable that mistakes will be made halfway, and it is not suitable for Ann to take on the kind of work that takes too long but does not have high exposure, such as film and television music. And last year there was a concert, and there were no plans to release an album this year. As for endorsements, Zhou Yu thinks it's better to talk about them when she has gained a firm foothold abroad. At that time, she will only be worth more.

That way, there's not much proper work left other than posting a single or two.

In the end, Zhou Yu suggested that she take on a variety show. Now to build momentum for going abroad, there is no better way to expose than this. After all, TV shows are indeed unique in terms of gathering popularity. An knows that he is a singer, and he is destined to not have as much exposure as an actor, so he can coordinate this issue well by participating in the show.

"Can I go to Music Dream Stage?" She asked.

Two or three years ago, she was still a little unconfident and felt that she was not qualified to be a guest on such a show, but now it is different. Moreover, because he knew that Shen Yanru wanted to get rid of himself, An knew that he wanted to participate in the same show with her.

"It's a blasting idea." Zhou Yu glanced at Shen Yanru, "What do you think?" ”

Shen Yanru naturally understood what An Zhi meant, she was a little helpless and a little funny. But she persevered and rejected the offer, "No." Although this is interesting, it will never be the direction we want. ”

Their purpose is to gather popularity for An Ming, but if they are with Shen Yanru, because of the relationship between the two, the effect will not be so good, and whether it is the media or fans, they will definitely pay more attention to the relationship between the two.

An looked at Shen Yanru with pleading, and Shen Yanru turned his eyes with difficulty, unmoved.

At this moment, Zhou Yu has found a more suitable program. It is said that one of the guests withdrew from the national TV program for some reason this year, and they are looking for someone to take over.

"Let's try it first, people don't necessarily like you yet." She said to Ann.

However, An Xiaoxiao's luck is good, because the national station has already found several veteran singers before, but they have not been able to reach cooperation due to various problems, so as soon as I asked here, the other party immediately agreed.

Ann knew that there was some resentment about this.

She wished that she didn't want any program, and in the end, Shen Yanru couldn't refuse her to join "Music Dream Channel".

In fact, Ann knew that he was just going to try it out, and he didn't have much obsession. However, after this sentence was said, she found that she was full of expectations, and she especially wanted to appear in this show with Shen Yanru. As a result, he was rejected by Shen Yanru neatly, which was too sad.

So for several days, An Zhizhi looked sad, and he didn't want to pay attention to Shen Yanru.

In fact, she herself sometimes calms down and thinks about it, and she also thinks that this may be the so-called "spoiled and spoiled", Shen Yanru's approach is not wrong, but she is a little too capricious. But An knows that he just doesn't want to change.

When she called Xiang Yujie, she was seen by the other party that she was not in good spirits, and An Zhizhi had to vaguely reveal a little meaning - she was never used to discussing her relationship problems with her elders, or she was not used to discussing any issues, because An Zhizhi had never gotten along with her elders, so she didn't know what to do at all, and she always had a bit of a misunderstanding.

However, she really likes Xiang Yujie's cousin very much-there are Shen family and Xu family, and the matter has been clarified during this time, and the aunt of Xiang Yujie is Ann's grandmother.

Because her mother died after giving birth to herself, compared to her father, who was drunk and gambled absurdly, An knew that her mother, who had never met or had any impression, had always had a very simple yearning.

can be Xiang family's time may have been doomed to a bumpy fate, grandparents died early, and my mother didn't even have a relative. Even if Ann knew that he wanted to remember and reminisce from them, he couldn't get it.

So now that she finally has a relative, An Zhizhi naturally wants to get close to her, so she hesitated to say it in the end.

Xiang Yujie had already known about her relationship with Shen Yanru before she saw An Zhizhi, and she lived in Vienna, a music mecca where artists frequented all year round, so she was also calm about this kind of thing. In addition, he knew that there was no position to accuse An of knowing the emotional problems now, so he behaved very calmly.

At this time, I heard An Zhizhi's complaint, and couldn't help but say, "She really took good care of you." ”

They haven't been together for a long time, so many things can only be seen on the surface, but Xiang Yujie has been keenly aware that An knows that in front of Shen Yanru, in front of others, it is simply two different things. Although she has never been married, she knows a little bit about this kind of thing, so she sincerely feels happy for Ann to know.

An knew that she was a little embarrassed, "She treats me very well." ”

Although Xiang Yujie didn't say anything, An knew that after making this call, it was like someone had connected to Ren Du's second vein, and suddenly he wanted to open it.

So that night, Shen Yanru, who had already figured out how to coax people after returning home, came back and was greeted by An Zhizhi with a smile on his face. She wore a bear print apron and took over what she was carrying for Shen Yanru, "Are you back?" Wait a while, and you will be ready to eat right away. ”

Shen Yanru stood alone at the entrance for a moment, savoring the sudden change, and then smiled slowly.
