At the beginning of July, Zhou Xuan and Chloe Moretz returned to China together.

Hollywood is paying more and more attention to the Chinese film market, and big-name stars are frequently coming to China to interact with fans, and Robert Downey Jr. went to China last year to promote "Iron Man 3".

Zhou Xuan was more popular, and in order to ensure safety, a large number of armed police were dispatched to open the way, and it looked like a national leader going out on patrol. Zhou Xuan signed for fans with a sour hand, too many people wanted to get his autograph, and getting the signed postcard could not satisfy everyone.

Zhou Xuan did several sports program interviews, instructed young players to play basketball in youth basketball training camps, and moved to many cities. Before returning to China, he also hired five bodyguards to accompany him, and he was surrounded by people everywhere he went, which was really prescient.

This time in China, Zhou Xuan will also serve as the image ambassador of Chinese basketball. There is speculation that the cost of endorsement is certainly not low. Earlier, "Los Angeles Sports" reported that Zhou Xuan's endorsement fee for 5 years reached 50 million US dollars, and then the Basketball Association refuted rumors that Zhou Xuan had zero endorsements, that is, he did not take a penny. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Hope Project in Poverty-stricken Areas, as well as the Youth Basketball Camp.

Kolo Moretz accompanied the whole process, making people speculate more about the relationship between the two.

Two weeks later, Zhou Xuan and Kolo flew back to Jinan on a special plane arranged by the Basketball Association, Zhou Xuan didn't come back for a long time, and when he met some relatives, everyone sighed that he had changed a lot, he was calmer than before, and he was also handsome. If a person has the ability, even if he looks average, some people will think that he is handsome.

Zhou Xuan bought a lot of gifts, and invited everyone to the best restaurant for dinner. The family didn't feel strange about the "foreign daughter-in-law" he brought back.

Two weeks later, when he was about to leave Jinan, Zhou Xuan received a call that he hadn't contacted for a long time. Liu Yang, an international student I met in Auckland in the past.

"Handsome guy, remember me?"

"Of course I remember, it's been a long time, Liu Yang, how is it in China?" Zhou Xuan asked with a smile.

"My family helped me arrange a job, but it's not easy to mix in China, civil servants don't make much money, and insurance may be merged, my dad is worried about selling the house, saying that the real estate is ready to be registered in a unified manner, which is so troublesome."

"Huh?" Zhou Xuan didn't know how to pick up the stubble, the word "civil servant" felt great before he went abroad, and now it is a bit far away for him.

He often pays attention to domestic news, and after the new boss comes to power, he cracks down on corrupt officials, and people fall every day. It is said that being an official is already a high-risk profession, and now officials do not dare to eat and drink at public expense. In addition, naked officials are also investigated, which are the kind of people who send their families abroad and happily "work" in China. In the past, anti-corruption was a joke, but now it's a real thing. Nie Yuyan's father was one of the ones who was hit......

In recent years, Zhou Xuan has stopped asking for news of Nie Yuyan, but he didn't expect that some people would appear on their own without thinking about it. Liu Yang told Zhou Xuan that she had contacted Nie Yuyan. Ask him if he wants to see each other?

Zhou Xuan thought about it for five seconds and sighed: "I want to meet her, you call me, it seems that she is not far from me, right?" ”

"Well, she's in Jinan. Over there she had a house and went with her mother. Liu Yang paused for a moment and instructed: "Don't say that I sued you, just run into it by chance." ”

"Could it be such an accident?"

Liu Yang said Nie Yuyan's address, she now works in a famous hotel in Jinan, can cook foreign food, Western food, and domestic cuisine, is a very famous beauty chef, and she also won an award in the competition last year.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Xuan told Kolo about the situation. Kolo still remembered Nie Yuyan and did not object. "Go, I'll wait for you at home."

"You're not going along?"

"I'm not familiar with her, what are I going to do?" Chloe laughed.

"Your expression doesn't look like jealousy, don't you feel awkward when I go to see my ex-girlfriend?"

"No, because I know you can't be with her anymore. She left you behind for years, you just want to talk and make a break. I think you'll be relieved to see that she's doing well. Maybe you want to hear her say in person that it's not your fault that she's leaving. Chloe smiled.

Zhou Xuan kissed Kelo and nodded, "Sure enough, you know me best." ”

Zhou Xuan is not worried that Nie Yuyan has no feelings for him, only Koreans will obviously love him but not contact him for many years. According to Liu Yang, she came out early.

Zhou Xuan went to eat at noon the next day, and on Tuesday, there were fewer guests than holidays, so it was less likely that he would be watched. He went late, and when he got out of the car, he was escorted by a few foreign bodyguards, which still attracted some onlookers from eating.

Zhou Xuan asked for a private room, the clerk didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and the general manager in his forties came out to talk to Zhou Xuan and ask for a group photo, which could be hung on the wall to attract customers in the future.

Zhou Xuan ordered the food he liked, Nie Yuyan was good at cooking, ate for a while, and called the waiter, but the general manager ran over in person.

He said respectfully: "Mr. Zhou, may I have any questions?" ”

"I'm very satisfied, so I want to meet the chef and talk to her, and I can also say in an interview that the food in this hotel is good and the chef is superb, is that okay?" Zhou Xuan said without hurry.

"Of course, thank you so much." The general manager said excitedly. As long as the MVP casually says a few kind words, the hotel will be on fire.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Call her, there aren't many guests at this time, right?" If it affects the business, I can compensate for the loss. ”

The general manager swallowed and foamed at the mouth after going out, and ordered someone to find Nie Yuyan, and she didn't have to worry about someone ordering food next. He suddenly remembered the rumors in the hotel. Nie Yuyan has a lot of photos on the Internet, and when she first came to apply, some people said that she looked like the girlfriend of the "mage". Now Zhou Xuan came to the door and asked to see her by name, it didn't seem like an accident. Then the rumors are likely to be true.

Even if it's an ex-girlfriend, the two have a relationship. The general manager thought that she would have to cover Nie Yuyan in the future, and any employees who were not long-sighted would help her block it, if she accidentally offended Zhou Xuan, it would be bad. He heard that Zhou Xuan could directly contact the mayor with a phone call, because the mayor was his fan.

He thought of the head chef of the hotel again, and he had trained Nie Yuyan a few times, which was not a good thing. He was ready to take the chance, and if the two did know each other, he would have to give the chef a lecture. If the two talk for a long time and prove that the relationship is very good, then just change the chef and let the beauty go up.

After a while, Nie Yuyan, who was wearing a chef's uniform, entered the private room, and the bodyguards were waiting outside, and the two met alone. She had just heard that Zhou Xuan had come to the hotel for dinner, but she didn't expect that he was here to find herself, and her expression was very exciting.

Zhou Xuan took a deep breath, his excitement gradually calmed down, and said with a smile: "Long time no see, you haven't changed at all, come and sit?" ”

"How did you find me? Liu Yang sued you, right? Nie Yuyan smiled bitterly.

"I didn't say it, you guessed it, and she said let me pretend to meet by chance." Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"There are not many people I know who can talk to you, and she is the only one who will contact you." Nie Yuyan sat beside Zhou Xuan calmly, without the joy of reuniting after a long absence, nor the embarrassment of breaking up as a couple.

Both of them felt that the atmosphere was flat and a little strange.

Zhou Xuan asked: "I haven't been in touch for a few years, how are you doing lately?" ”

Nie Yuyan smiled: "It's not bad, the hardest time has come, you know that my dad has an accident, right?" I won't go into details. ”

"Well, I know a little bit." Zhou Xuan nodded.

Nie Yuyan sighed: "Although he went in, our family still has a lot of money, and we don't have to worry about food and clothing." My mom and I wanted to change the environment, so we came to Jinan. That way, no one related to my dad will bother. I'm a master chef now, and I've had a fulfilling life. ”

"You should know all about me in the past few years." Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

"Hmm. You're a legend...... In the few months we have been together, I have actually always had a feeling that we will not be people of the same world in the future, you are too powerful, so breaking up, my dad's accident is only one aspect. Then I calmed down, you were already with Hermione, I didn't think I should have disturbed your life, so I didn't call you again. I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, now Hermione has broken up because she has too little time to see me, and I'm not a qualified boyfriend." Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly: "Do you have a boyfriend now?" ”

"Hmm." Nie Yuyan nodded, a little embarrassed and said, "I met him when I was in the chef competition, and he lost to me, and he was four years older than me. ”

"Do you work here too?"

"No, a competitor's restaurant, but that's okay." Nie Yuyan sighed: "Do you know? I used to think that if you weren't an NBA star and you were a chef, maybe we would be together...... I'll go back to Jinan and I'll definitely be in the competition with your cooking skills, and then we'll meet at that time, not in Auckland. ”

"Listen to what you say, it's really that guy who jumped off the building to smash my life off track, if it weren't for him, I would have to be a chef in Jinan." Zhou Xuan shivered and got goosebumps.

Because the butterfly effect is not only Zhou Xuan himself, but also the people in the entire alliance have changed because of him, and many businesses have also changed their fate.

The two chatted for a long time, like friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. Nie Yuyan told Zhou Xuan all her thoughts, she just wanted to live an ordinary life, a warm petty bourgeois feeling, go to work, go home, get married and have children, no pressure, no pursuit of power and glory.

Zhou Xuan will not be willing to be bland, he thinks that his glorious years have just begun, and he will set more records, make more money, and achieve legends in the future. Nie Yuyan also asked Zhou Xuan personal questions, she suspected that Zhou Xuan and Kolo were a couple, and Zhou Xuan did not hide her.

The two left each other's phone numbers, and they will contact and be friends in the future. If he is in trouble, Nie Yuyan can ask Zhou Xuan for help, he is a national treasure in China, and he has unimaginable energy.

chatted until the afternoon, and Zhou Xuan didn't leave until it was dinner time. No regrets, no regrets.

Some things have more results than the process, such as competitions; Some things have more process than result, such as love.
