Lu Xiao drove her home, like a victorious open-screen peacock along the way, and kept talking to Ningxia about the colorful expressions of those people just now.

Ningxia was silent and uninterested.

There is a thorn in the throat, and I can't swallow it for a long time.

If the speaker has a heart, and the listener has a heart, the matter will naturally become very serious.

Lu Xiao's nerves are not coarse, on the contrary, they are very delicate. She pondered and glanced at her: "Eh, they said that you are like you, I don't remember what Lu Linan looks like, if you really care so much, isn't it easy to get a photo of her to come and see it." ”

It's a breeze, Xiaofan must have a photo of her sister. But she didn't dare.

I don't know why I was suddenly timid, but I said that I would always believe him.

Maybe...... is because the other party is the girl he has silently pretended to be in his heart for so many years, and she has no confidence to compete with her.

What if, really like?

In case of......

Don't dare to think further.

Ningxia buried his head deeply.

The night is colorful, and the lights outside the window are shining.

Lu Xiao has a hard temper and can't get used to her weakness: "Hey, can you be a turtle with a shrunken head for a while?" Even if Ah Xun fell in love with you because of this face—"

Ning Xia glanced at him expressionlessly.

Lu Xiao choked and continued with a flat mouth: "You are colorless. Temptation, two no plastic surgery, you are not at fault, what are you afraid of? ”

Ningxia was silent, and a minute later, she took out her phone.

Don't beat around the bush, it's straightforward: Do you have a clear frontal photo of your cousin, send me one.

Xiaofan was holding up his mobile phone and singing in the bedroom, and replied quickly: Cousin?

Ningxia: The one who got engaged in Vance last year.

Xiaofan: Why do you want my sister's photo?

Ningxia: Don't ask, if you have one, send me.

Xiaofan: Wait, I'll look in the computer album.

As she waited, Ningxia's knuckles tightened a little, and she tried to take two deep breaths.

Lu Xiao said on the side: "What about digging up the truth? ”

It's none of her business, she doesn't worry at all, but she's too curious, if she really looks similar, wouldn't Ningxia become Lu Lin'an's stand-in?

Finally, there is a new movement on the screen.

Xiaofan sent a photo of last year, or a photo of her and Lu Linan in the dressing room before the engagement banquet began: My sister doesn't like to take pictures, let alone take selfies, only this one is the most recent, not this year. Why do you want a picture of her?

Ningxia did not return. She clicked on the photo and enlarged the smiling face.

The face that she didn't pay attention to see clearly at the engagement banquet entered her vision after ten months, and it was a new feeling.

Like? She...... I don't know.

Lu Xiao's eyes were sharp: "Show me." ”

Ningxia ignored her: "Concentrate on driving your car." ”

Lu Xiao: "Just let me take a look." ”

Ningxia held up her phone, and the screen turned to her.

happened to encounter a traffic jam, Lu Xiao grabbed the mobile phone and compared it repeatedly, looking at the photo for a while, staring at her for a while, and Ningxia was even more upset by her.

"Tsk......"

Ningxia's heart sank: "What's wrong?" ”

Lu Xiao shook his head: "Don't say it, it's a bit like." Especially ......"

"What is it?" Ningxia's voice is tense.

The traffic was moving slowly, and the horn was honking behind it. Lu Xiao turned a deaf ear and stared straight at Ningxia: "Your eyes." ”

In the summer night, Ningxia felt cold.

Lu Xiao returned the phone to her, started slowly, and muttered: "What are you urging, it's noisy." ”

Xiaofan asked over and over again, but was baffled by her sudden move, so he almost made a phone call to ask him.

Ningxia typed and replied: Do you think I look quite similar to your sister?

Xiaofan sent a black question mark face.

Ningxia: Take a closer look.

I haven't spoken for a long time, about five or six minutes have passed, Xiaofan laughed and said: I'm face blind, I don't think it looks like it, just my mother came in and I asked her to see it, just look at it It's nothing, compare your photos, my mother said it was like, you and my sister are like sisters.

Ningxia sat stiffly, dissipating all his strength for a while.

Xiaofan: My mother said that there is a place where you two are most similar, and because there is a similarity, □□ is also similar.

Ningxia's fingers coldly typed two words: eyes?

Xiaofan: Yes, eyes, you are all phoenix eyes. My mom said that phoenix eyes represent intelligence.

Deep breathing also doesn't control the air flow in your chest that is slowly tumbling. Relatives and friends can have this discovery, let alone Ye Nanxun?

How to explain it?

Love the house, and Wu?

Lu Xiao insisted on driving downstairs into the apartment, his eyes kept looking up through the windshield, and asked, "Do you really need me to accompany you up?" In case you coax, with me, I can still remind you to be tougher. ”

Ningxia thanked Bumin: "I know why you and those people can play together, you all watch the excitement is not a big deal." ”

After saying it with a cold face, she opened the door directly and got out of the car.

In my ears, it was my own chaotic heartbeat.

I know that I shouldn't think about it too much, he is so good, he spoils her so much, every bit and every bit of their time together is really reassuring, but she just feels very wronged, and if she is anyone, she must not want to look like her boyfriend's ex-girlfriend, right?

What is this?

The sense of security established in front of her was like clearing everything to zero, and she once again fell into a whirlpool called "Ye Nanxun's past".

When Ye Nanxun came back, he saw Ningxia cowering in the sofa, like a poor little shrimp, looking at him vigilantly and blankly.

He stepped forward a few steps, knelt on one knee on the carpet, half-crouched in front of her, his left hand lightly resting on her soft hair.

"What happened today?" His voice was deep and his expression was serious.

Ningxia hugged his knees and did not move, only raised his eyes, and looked at him in silence. The hair on his forehead was messy and wet with sweat.

He brushed it for her, stopped talking, just looked at her, and waited for her to say.

What to say? Ningxia opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

It's too strange, this feeling is too strange, does she have to pretend to ask him casually like she asked Xiaofan: Do you think I look quite similar to your sister?

Completely...... I can't say it.

She looked at him with pure eyes, her mouth slightly open, revealing a small row of white teeth underneath.

He leaned up, pressed his forehead to it, and smiled down: "Why don't you drink something first and talk slowly?" ”

Such Ye Nanxun, such a he, somehow made her eyes sour.

The eyes were moist and damp.

"Someone used Lu Xiao's mobile phone to text me today and tricked me into going to their party."

Ye Nanxun retreated, vaguely gloomy.

Ningxia looked at him without blinking for a moment: "They said that I look like a person." ”

Like who, needless to say, he must understand.

Ningxia didn't let go of a trace of his expression, but he was too calm and didn't reveal much change, just frowned slightly.

"Sad because of this?"

Ningxia reached out and grabbed his arm, he was still wearing a suit, aqua blue, but it was not suffocating in the summer night, but refreshing.

"Shouldn't I be upset?" With a slight blink of the eyelashes, tears fall.

Ye Nanxun sighed lightly, his long fingers swept over the corners of her eyes, wiped away the moisture, and looked into her gradually sad eyes: "I told you that my world has never been able to accommodate a second person. ”

Yes, but maybe it's still a person.

As if he understood the meaning in her eyes, Ye Nanxun's next words were more solemn and deeper: "If I still remember her, I won't start with you." ”

He's really serious, like a teacher who doesn't smile and is educating his students.

Ningxia couldn't hold back, and tears fell down.

"But why is it so coincidental that I look like her?"

"Not really."

Ning Xia just lowered his eyelids and raised them suddenly, and his hazy eyes were confused.

"You're you, she's her, and you're not like each other at all."

Ye Nanxun turned sideways, took out two tissues from the top of the coffee table, and silently wiped her tears.

Ningxia let him move, and even his body and heart seemed to be still.

After wiping it off, he lifted his eyes slightly and looked at her calmly: "Didn't you say that you were speechless at first and thought I was strange?" ”

Ningxia didn't nod or shake her head, she remembered that she had said it, and more than once, he had apologized to her.

"When you thought me was weird, seeing you always made me think of her."

Ningxia's mouth puffed, and his index finger pressed along the middle: "Listen to me first." ”

A warm touch of strength was attached to his lips, and the corners of Ningxia's eyes widened slightly.

"Only when people understand can they lift the veil and see the essence clearly." The long finger was not withdrawn, Ye Nanxun approached her, and the distance between her eyes and her eyes was only an inch, "You are two different people." I know very well who the people who live in my heart are. ”

The breath is staggered, and the breath that belongs to him is close at hand.

"Believe me?" He asked.

Ningxia bit her lip and kept hinting that she should not drill the tip of the horns, it was meaningless, and it would only increase her troubles. He took the initiative to be open and honest, and he had already said this, and it would be a bit dull to think about it again.

Opened his lips, and his teeth tapped on his index finger: "Hmm." ”

Then, she saw him smile slowly, and the smile that had dispersed from the clouds spread to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

He kissed her on the forehead.

"Good girl." The three words, which were extremely light, barely forced, floated low to her ear, as if they were not for her, but for himself.

***

The next day, Ningxia's first semi-final performance was stable, Xu Siqi's performance was worse, and the crane tail squeezed into the top five. One of the contestants at the biggest rival, Tao Restaurant, was eliminated.

For Wan Sinian, Ningxia and Xu Siqi's results are deserved, after all, Xu Zhengze's name is there, as his apprentice, losing to others is smashing his golden signboard. It's just that he himself doesn't feel about it, and he is used to it, and he doesn't have this cognition.

Everything is developing in a good direction, and whether Jian En successfully buys off the judges has become a mystery in Ningxia's mind.

What she didn't know was that Xu Zhengze and Jiang Yiran had already teamed up with Ning Yunsheng to settle this matter privately, and the reason why one of Jian'en's Tao restaurants would be eliminated fairly was because the buyout was unsuccessful.

Who knew that within two days, a marketing account broke out the so-called shady scene on the Internet, bluntly exposing the fraud of the judges of a popular variety show, and a certain popular contestant was actually father and daughter.

The topic only needs to be stirred up slightly, and netizens can find clues in seconds.

There are only a few popular contestants, even if they are recorded first and then broadcast, they are famous from beginning to end, and there are only three judges, it is easy to judge from the surname alone, Ningxia and Ning Yunsheng, Ningxia is the daughter of the well-known gourmand and producer Ning Yunsheng.

There was an uproar on the Internet.

Immediately, an anonymous insider came out to testify, telling one or two things that seemed to be true or false about the Ning family's housework, for a while, it no longer matters whether it is true or false, the authenticity of the variety show has been widely questioned by the public, and the program team urgently called Ning Yunsheng to seek the truth, Ning Yunsheng did not say a word, and was willing to withdraw from the subsequent program recording.

The two parties have signed a contract, and his unilateral concealment has brought an unprecedented bad impact on the show, even if the chief producer of the variety show and he have been friends for many years, they can only negotiate as much as possible within the appropriate range. Accountability is inevitable, and Ning Yunsheng is very likely to need to compensate for liquidated damages.

Subsequently, Ning Yunsheng issued an apology statement on his personal Weibo for the incident.

The statement made it clear that he and his daughter joined the show separately without the knowledge of both parties, and he did not have any personal fraud after that, if you don't believe it, you can look back at his evaluation and rating of Ningxia desserts in each episode.

But he failed to make the right choice in time to quit the judging job after knowing that his daughter was participating in the competition, which is the most undeserved. This is his fault, and it has nothing to do with the program team, nor does it have anything to do with his daughter. It is he who has betrayed the trust of the audience and his partners, and he is willing to take all the responsibility for the problems he has caused.

But this matter is still not over, Ningxia has become the target of public criticism, and even Xu Siqi, who passively formed a "chess couple" with her, was also affected.

Ningxia and Xu Siqi are both from Vance Year, and the reputation of Vance Year Hotel on the Internet has become extremely poor.

The trick behind the scenes, killing three birds with one stone. 166 Reading Network
