Chapter 4: A Night Walk
Chapter 4: A Night Walk
Far from the city centre, this area of upscale villas is huge, each with a small garden, a long distance from each villa, and a particularly secluded road. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info walk out of this private villa area from Mo Wanlin's villa, and there is no less than half an hour's walk to the highway where you can take a taxi. People who can afford to live in this kind of villa will naturally travel by car, which is really nothing. But for Gu Lian and Chenxing, who happened to take someone else's car here and couldn't hitchhike back again, this road also became a problem.
Mo Wanlin did not choose a high-end hotel in the city center to host her birthday party, but chose her own private house, not out of privacy, watching many celebrities visit her in person to congratulate, so as to better satisfy the vanity of this Huayue princess. Gu Lian was surprised that he was still in the mood to analyze Mo Wanlin's psychology of choosing the address of the birthday party at this time.
Neither of them came by car, and when they walked out of the gate of the Mo Mansion, a person who looked like a security guard looked at them in surprise.
They walked onto the main road in the villa area. The road is lined with deep and dense French plane trees, and baroque iron-clad street lamps dot the streets, and the lights paint the foliage in a gorgeous visual effect against the backdrop of night.
Gu Lian's hair and the placket on his chest were still wet, and they were shivering from the cold blowing of the night wind. Chenxing walked in front of him, not looking back. As soon as he left the hall, he let go of Gu Lian's hand.
Gu Lian couldn't help but sneez, and the person who had been walking in front seemed to realize that there was another person behind him, looked back, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, when I pulled you away, I forgot that I didn't drive." It looks like we'll have to walk to the highway to get a taxi. ”
The smile that is still as shy as a boy is really the same as before.
Gu Lian stared at the man in front of him, pulled the corners of his mouth, and sneered, "Six years ago, was this how you caused yourself to disappear from the music scene?" ”
Chenxing, who looked cold-faced at Mo Wanlin's party, was like an easy-going big boy at this time, and he didn't show anger at Gu Lian's unfriendly tone, but was a little puzzled, "Willful?" ”
"Of course, there were many rumors that you faded out of the music scene six years ago, and I ate this business again, so I still know a little about you."
Chenxing looked at Gu Lian, carrying the street lamp on his back, and the expression in the backlight made Gu Lian unable to see clearly. "That was a long time ago." Chenxing's tone was calm.
"That's just six years. Yes, for the entertainment industry, six years is enough time for several rounds of upgrading. Gu Lian snorted, "Thank you for helping me out, although it is useless to improve my situation." ”
"You are Dong Tianxue's agent, so you should have participated a lot in his singing career, and you should be very familiar with it...... The process of making music, right? Chenxing didn't care about the thorn in Gu Lian's words, and suddenly asked about this topic, his expression was a little excited.
Gu Lian nodded.
Chenxing's eyes lit up, "Then, if I can, I really want to ......"
Gu Lian realized something vigilantly, and shook his head suddenly, "One thing I must affirm, although I was repaired by Mo Wanlin tonight, it doesn't mean that any artist can let me be his agent." ”
Chenxing lowered his head, and the light that flashed in his eyes just now dimmed. "Oh, it's okay, since you say so, I'll respect your opinion." Chenxing continued to walk forward, without looking back, in a clear tone.
Gu Lian looked at the slender and graceful back in front of him who had been thinking about it countless times, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. She liked him, but since spending a cold night on the streets of Hong Kong with Pei Yueyue six years ago, she had decided to hate him.
"You're so relaxed, you don't seem to care about anything." Stepping on high heels and slowly squirting behind Chenxing, Gu Lian still couldn't help but speak.
"Because it's useless to care, isn't it? It's a long road. But the environment is very good, walk here during the day, the scenery will be beautiful. Chenxing looked around, and from his inexplicable excited tone, Gu Lian could almost imagine his child-like expression of interest with shining-eyed eyes.
"It's useless to care anyway, so it's all abandoned? Whether it's a career, friends, or so many fans who support you? Yes, these are all optional things for you, no matter what, you just have to be happy. As soon as the words were spoken, Gu Lian was shocked to realize that he still had so much resentment. I thought that the feelings that I had let go of a long time ago, as long as I found a breakthrough, it seemed that no matter how long it would take, it would erupt.
Chenxing finally stopped, and looked back at what he thought was a little agent who had inadvertently offended Mo Wanlin, "You ......"
Gu Lianzheng didn't know how to respond next, and the phone rang in time. Hurriedly picked up the phone, and when he saw that it was Yu Youjia calling, he couldn't help but hesitate.
She looked very embarrassed now, for fear that Yu Youjia would hear something, so she hesitated to answer. After changing her usual life, she couldn't wait to pick up her phone.
As the mobile phone rang continuously, a silver-white car slowly drove from behind Gu Lian.
The phone ringing stopped.
Gu Lian suddenly turned around, and when she saw the car, her face changed greatly, and she jumped behind Chenxing, wanting to hide somewhere, hoping that a hole would appear in the ground for her to get into.
Chenxing wondered how she reacted.
The silver-white car slowly drove away, and Chenxing only felt the clothes behind him being pulled tighter and tighter.
Gu Lian wanted to run away, unwilling to let anyone see her appearance, but she couldn't do the act of running away in front of him, so she could only lean on Chenxing's back and unconsciously pull his clothes, so frustrated that she wanted to curse herself.
The car finally came to Gu Lian's side and stopped, rolled down the window, and Yu Youjia smiled at ease, "Why don't you answer the phone?" I'm glad I ran into you. ”
Gu Lian closed his eyes, his heart was horizontal, and he smiled at Yu Youjia casually, the embarrassment was real, the chagrin was real, but the joy was also sincere. "Where did you come from, and you went to Mo Wanlin's house? Why didn't I see you? ”
The street lamp shone brightly, Yu Youjia clearly saw Gu Lian's wet appearance, and the hair was still dripping with rare liquid, he was stunned for a second, and immediately looked as usual, didn't say anything, only urged, "Get in the car, there is still a lot of distance from here to the road." Raising his eyes, he found that Gu Lian was followed by a person, who seemed to be someone Gu Lian knew, and asked casually, "Are you Gu Lian's friend, come up with you." ”
Gu Lian turned his head and saw Chenxing's somewhat hesitant look, thinking that he couldn't say anything about leaving him like this, he took his hand and got into Yu Youjia's car.
Chenxing didn't expect Gu Lian to suddenly come to such a hand, but he didn't expect to refuse, so he had already got in the car, and seeing that Yu Youjia was so polite, he didn't say anything more.
"I also just arrived at Mo Wanlin's house, only to find out that you were gone, and then chased you out to have a look. I actually ran into it, and it seems that I had good luck today. I guess when I arrived at the parking lot of Mozhai, you just walked out of the gate. Yu Youjia saw that although Gu Lian got into the car and wanted to try her best to maintain her demeanor, her clenched and tangled hands betrayed her emotions. There was silence in the car, he deliberately picked a topic, and his tone was relaxed, wanting Gu Lian to relax.
"I heard that you have a good relationship with Mo Wanlin, you will leave when you come, there will be no problems, right?" Gu Lian understood Yu Youjia's intentions, and the chill on his body had dissipated a lot. She wiped her hair with the face towel that Youjia handed her, and opened her mouth to respond to the rhetorical question. In fact, what she wanted to ask more was, why did Yu Youjia come to the Mo family, did she only come for herself?
"It's okay, that little girl has already accepted my gift, and she won't lose her temper. I'm worried about you, I'm relieved to see you're okay. Yu Youjia's Mandarin has a faint Hong Kong and Taiwan accent, which makes people not bored but feels unusually soft and gratifying. When he said the tone words, the deliberately upturned tail tone seemed a little playful, which greatly reduced his impression of calm and indifferent in the past.
Yu Youjia was born in Hong Kong, lived in the mainland in primary and junior high school, went to school in Hong Kong, and took the college entrance examination in the mainland. When Yu Youjia talked about Xiao Nizi, the words were too round, and the expression of gritting teeth made Gu Lian laugh. The CEO of Runmei Company, an upstart in the domestic public relations industry, is also the vice president of Huayue Group, a predator in the entertainment industry, and he looks so cute when he learns to speak Beijing.
Gu Lian was really attracted by Yu Youjia's rare playful appearance, and pretended to comment, "Show off the new vocabulary you learned again, well, the pronunciation is okay, but the tone is a little weird." ”
Looking at Gu Lian in the mirror, Yu Youjia also smiled, "Mo Wanlin's temperament is like that, if she has any inappropriate behavior, don't take it to heart." ”
I'm worried about you, I'm relieved to see you're okay. Gu Lian kept thinking about this sentence in his mind. I don't even mind the embarrassment tonight. What's more, he was so gentle and bothered to tease her at this time.
Yu Youjia's smile and words have a kind of magic power for her that can soothe all tired pain. Although she also noticed Yu Youjia's last explanation - Yu Youjia knew that Mo Wanlin might be embarrassed and rushed over.
Yu Youjia is so gentle to the people around him, she already knows it very well in her heart, isn't it? He was worried that he would be embarrassed by Mo Wanlin, if the situation reversed and she was in Mo Wanlin's net worth status, then Yu Youjia would be worried about Mo Wanlin.
"Ah, I know, it's fine. It's too late for President Yu of Huayue Group to be so concerned. After thinking about it, Gu Lian raised his head and smiled at Youjia.
In any case, he should be very content if he can show such tenderness to himself. Thinking so much is just asking for trouble.
"Then do I have the honor to send you home in person tonight, Miss Gu?" Yu Youjia answered casually, feeling that his words had an effect on Gu Lian's mood, and he seemed to be more energetic.
"It's an honor." Gu Lian agreed with a smile.
Chenxing, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, silently looked at the two people in front of him who were talking and laughing, with a little inquiring smile on his face, and did not say a word.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the night is like condensation.
"I see. Xiao Lin did a little too much this time, and the little festival she had with Gu Lian in the past has not been discouraged yet. Yu Youjia handed Yin Rongyu a glass of red wine, sat on the sofa, and sighed slightly.
Yin Rongyu took the wine, saw Yu Youjia wearing only a thin gray sweater, put the wine on the coffee table, and threw a fluffy blanket to him first. Although the house uses a geothermal heating system, which is as warm as spring, Yin Rongyu always feels uneasy when she sees Yu Youjia's thin clothes.
Yu Youjia smiled and put on the blanket.
Yin Rongyu shook the wine glass lightly and said slowly, "I don't know very well, but we have all learned what kind ......of temper Mo Wanlin is, Gu Lian is just like this" Yin Rongyu compared the top half of her little finger, "Didn't she kick a certain crew member who didn't recognize her and almost lost her life." Hey, you even sent that star home? Why are you so wronged to be a driver? The words were full of resentment.
。
"No, he also went down himself after Gu Lian got out of the car. This guy feels pretty good to me. Yu Youjia held the hot tea, recalled Chenxing's polite attitude, and said sincerely.
Yin Rongyu made a speechless posture and looked at the sky, "You, everyone has a good impression." Don't talk about this, give. He took out a card-like thing and put a few keys in front of Yu Youjia.
Yu Youjia took it in his hand and looked at it, looked at Yin Rongyu, and his eyes were full of inquiry.
"I've got another house, and I'm going to make it our secret nest in the future." Yin Rongyu approached Youjia, put his hand on his shoulder, and said mysteriously.
"Isn't your house meant to be used as an investment for your beautiful beauties?" Yu Youjia raised his eyebrows.
"So, you and I need a space to be alone so that we can communicate and friendship. Let's just talk about your mother, I only dare to come to you when she is not at home, you are too clean to go to my house, this house, I promise to be clean, and I will never bring a woman here. You can rest assured. ”
"Aren't you afraid that your eldest brother will misunderstand you?"
"He wants to know that I am hiding a proud son like you, and he will probably encourage me to continue hiding. Hey, don't hit me in the face with something, even the blanket is very rough and easy to hurt the skin, okay? Yin Rongyu took what Yu Youjia frowned and threw over, "Okay, to be serious, it's not that your mother is too nervous about you, you are so old that she doesn't even agree to make a house outside." Yin Rongyu took a sip of wine, "That's it." Check it out when you have time, I've decorated it all to your liking. Seeing Yu Youjia's still doubtful expression, Yin Rongyu's expression also became serious, "Recently, my aunt has seen that you have become more and more tight, and there must be a place to breathe." It's better to come to my place than for her to say a little more after she knows you've got a house for yourself. Recently, she seems to have noticed that you have been looking for the Hong Kong woman who was related to your kidnapping case more than ten years ago, are you okay? ”
Yu Youjia leaned his head back on the sofa, remembering the past many years ago, and gradually showed a trace of tiredness in his expression, "I'm fine." "But I'll find her." ”
Yin Rongyu looked at him with some sorrow, "Your mother's worries are not unreasonable." She's the one on the way, and you'd better mess less. ”
Yu Youjia just smiled faintly and stopped talking.
Yin Rongyu knew that this friend of more than ten years had made up his mind that it would be impossible to change, so he drank all the wine in a sullen gulp and sighed heavily.
