Chapter 50: Parting Ways (8)
Not long after returning to City B, Qiao Yu won three awards in a row at another music awards ceremony based on netizens' votes, including Best Mainland Male Singer, Best Album, and Best Golden Melody. "Le" Wen "Xiao" said|
Because of Qiao Yu's raised eyebrows, the previous haze was swept away in the office, and everyone smiled, and the previous unpleasantness was just a response to the words of right and wrong.
After Qiao Yu's popularity in the circle was highlighted, there were more endorsements, magazine covers, and interviews that followed, Xu Lan had already said that he would add people, but there was no suitable candidate, but fortunately, Sun Xiaowu and Xiao Liu, Lu Ling, and Wu Shi cooperated very well. Xu Lan has always had a set of training people, and even Lu Ling, who used to be timid and afraid of things, has now begun to take charge of himself.
During this period, Shu Kai went back to City B to participate in the promotion of another hit drama, and before returning to Xiangshan, he specially asked Sun Xiaowu to have dinner together.
When Sun Xiaowu received the call, he heard the other party sign up for himself, and couldn't help but be shocked, "Ha, how can you have my phone?" ”
Shu Kai smiled, "You also underestimate me too much, I not only have your phone, but also your WeChat and Weibo." ”
Since the last time I had a deep conversation in Chongqing, Sun Xiaowu and Shu Kai have become much closer, and their speech is more casual, "I believe in WeChat, but I don't believe in Weibo." ”
Shu Kai laughed again, "Okay, lie to you, Weibo really doesn't have it." ”
Shu Kai then asked: "Are you free tomorrow, let's eat together at noon?" ”
Sun Xiaowu hesitated a little and asked, "Don't you have to be busy?" ”
The person on the other end of the phone was a little unhappy, and said angrily, "There is still time to have a meal with friends." ”
Friend? The other party did say that he wanted to be friends with her before, but Sun Xiaowu originally thought that he was just talking casually. The other party is rarely invited, and Sun Xiaowu knows that his time must be extremely precious, she is not worried about his intentions, for him, she is the most insignificant deposit, what is there to use?
Although Sun Xiaowu still had some concerns, he still couldn't bear to refuse, "Okay, let me ask Qiao Shao for a leave." ”
Sun Xiaowu hung up Shu Kai's phone, and began to think about how to take leave with Qiao Yu, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to speak when he brought him lunch at noon, she said, "I want to take a day off tomorrow?" ”
Qiao Yu was preparing for the content of tomorrow's interview, and did not raise his eyes to look at her, "You don't need to tell me, just hand over to Xiao Liu and them." ”
Sun Xiaowu smiled dismally, "Thank you, Qiao Shao!" ”
^^^^^^^^^
Sun Xiaowu found the latter's apartment downstairs according to the address given by Shu Kai, and then called him.
Shu Kai said on the phone: "I forgot to buy eggs, you go to a nearby convenience store and help me buy beaten eggs, right?" ”
Sun Xiaowu was confused, "What do you want eggs for?" ”
Shu Kai sneered, "I'm going to scramble a tomato scrambled egg, how can I do it without eggs?" ”
Sun Xiaowu almost collapsed to the ground when she heard this, she thought that she had made an appointment to meet in Shu Kai's apartment, just to facilitate the meeting, who expected that the other party would cook by herself, she was still not sure, and couldn't help but ask again: "Are you going to fire yourself, and you cook the dishes yourself?" ”
Shu Kai's voice sounded a little proud, "What? I'm very good at cooking, didn't I tell you? ”
Sun Xiaowu couldn't cry or laugh, went to the convenience store to buy eggs, and then came to Shu Kai's apartment.
Shu Kai came to answer the door, and he was wearing an apron with the xx soy sauce logo, which really looked good. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Sun Xiaowu would never have imagined that the young man on the screen, the sunny and heart-warming boy who doesn't seem to eat fireworks in the world on weekdays, would be so down-to-earth in private that he would even cook in person.
Shu Kai took the slippers from the shoe cabinet and gave them to her, and after a closer look, there was still the logo of xxx hotel printed on them, Sun Xiaowu was shocked again, "This is what you took back from the hotel?" ”
Shu Kai was very proud, "Yes, the quality of these slippers is really good." ”
The slippers of the five-star hotel, even if they are disposable, the quality is still very good, but the other party's habit, Sun Xiaowu really didn't know how to answer the phone, so he could only sigh, "You are too good at living." ”
Shu Kai didn't feel embarrassed, "The problems left when I first debuted were purely habitual later, you have lived with Xiaolan, you should have seen it, and I learned these tricks from her." ”
Yes, Xiaolan has been with Shu Kai for many years, and the two have snuggled up to each other and supported each other for a long period of dark time, and there must be a lot of stories.
Shu Kai's apartment, just like himself, is introverted but not exposed, not as big as Qiao Yu's apartment, nor as luxurious as the other party's decoration, but it is simple and warm, with a unique style and taste. Sun Xiaowu came to the kitchen while taking a brief tour, and there were all kinds of ingredients waiting to be processed on the counter, looking very serious, and couldn't help asking: "Do you really know how to cook?" ”
Shu Kai was so happy to see Sun Xiaowu's shocked appearance, and said with a smile, "I was very poor for a while, and as a star, I would be laughed at if I went out to eat too badly, so I had to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables and cook by myself." ”
Sun Xiaowu asked in surprise: "Did you go to the supermarket?" ”
Shu Kai shook his head, "I want to, but I still don't have the guts, so I asked the assistant to send it." ”
Sun Xiaowu is always very sensitive to the word assistant, and can't help but say, "Why is it so troublesome, I knew this earlier, I just bought it?" ”
Shu Kai raised his eyebrows and looked at Sun Xiaowu obliquely, "How can I trouble you, you are not my assistant?" ”
Sun Xiaowu immediately stopped talking.
Shu Kai didn't mean to provoke her, but he couldn't help but ask, "What, is it still undecided?" ”
Sun Xiaowu sighed and replied for a long time: "I don't know either." ”
Sun Xiaowu knew very well in his heart that with Qiao Yu's stubborn character, the contradictions between the two would inevitably be irreconcilable, and they were reluctant to work together, each other was very uncomfortable, and leaving by himself was the best choice, but when he really had to make a decision, he could not make that determination.
They are people of two worlds, and parting at this time is almost the same as parting forever.
^^^^^^^^^
It's a pity that although Shu Kai has a posture, he hasn't practiced it for many years, and the previous technology has long been put down, and the amount of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar has to be asked to Sun Xiaowu one by one, and then Sun Xiaowu really can't stand it, and finally she is still in charge of it, stir-fry a few dishes, and finally fool the lunch.
After the meal, Shu Kai insisted on washing the dishes by himself, how could Sun Xiaowu dare to let the big star do such a thing, but the other party repeatedly asked, Sun Xiaowu had no choice but to help on the side.
Shu Kai asked Sun Xiaowu while washing the dishes: "Do you still have to go to work in the afternoon?" ”
Sun Xiaowu shook his head, "I took a day off." ”
Shu Kai was very happy after hearing this, "It's okay that afternoon, you can help me correct the lines, Xiaolan has no time to care about me now, let me fend for myself." ”
Xiaolan was completely transferred to Director Lu as an apprentice, and the company sent another assistant to Shu Kai, which is estimated to be still in the run-in period, and it is not easy to use. Anyway, Sun Xiaowu has nothing to do, thinking that it is also a very enjoyable thing to be able to enjoy the acting of big stars, so he readily agreed.
Shu Kai is different from Qiao Yu, he works very seriously, Sun Xiaowu is influenced by him, so he doesn't dare to be too sloppy, and he is even more straightforward about his lines.
Sun Xiaowu helped Shu Kai play for an afternoon, physically and mentally exhausted, and when the other party proposed to invite her to dinner as a thank you, she did not refuse, "I'll go to the refrigerator to see what else there are dishes, but I'm not good at cooking, it's okay to eat occasionally, and I guess you're a little choking after eating two meals in a row." ”
Sun Xiaowu was about to get up and go to the kitchen as he spoke, but as soon as he started, he was pulled by Shu Kai, who looked at her with a speechless face, "How can I still let you cook, I'll take you out to eat!" Then he added, "Director Lu is a foodie, and he recommended a good restaurant, just go and try it." ”
Sun Xiaowu was a little worried, "What if I am recognized?" ”
Shu Kai looked teasing, "I took my assistant out to eat, what does it matter if I am recognized?" ”
Sun Xiaowu was stunned when she heard it, and once she encountered this topic, she automatically skipped it.
Before going out, Shu Kai glanced at Sun Xiaowu's clothes, and couldn't help but say: "The place I took you to should be very high-end, do you want to send you back to change your clothes and go again?" ”
Sun Xiaowu glanced at the sweatshirt and jeans on his body, and couldn't help but smile and said: "I am dressed like this, and others will think that I am your assistant at first glance, so they will not be misunderstood." Then he winked at Shu Kai, "You won't be ashamed, will you?" ”
Shu Kai pursed his mouth, "Okay, whatever you want, as long as it's not perfunctory to me!" ”
^^^^^^^^^
Lu Dao loves Chinese food, and recommends a suburban local restaurant, with old Chinese decoration, elegant environment with mountains and rivers, but there are not many boxes, and you need to book in advance, but Shu Kai is not an ordinary person after all, the boss heard that the big star came to the door, not only rushed to the front desk to greet him, but also helped him arrange a box with an excellent location.
The waiters in the store are all well-trained, and they will not crowd up to ask for a group photo, and no one will secretly take pictures, which alone is very popular with Shu Kai.
When ordering, Shu Kai asked Sun Xiaowu's opinion, Sun Xiaowu said that he was not a picky eater, and ordered a few signature dishes in the store at will, with meat and vegetarian combinations, which were very pleasing to the eye and even more delicious to eat.
The box they were in was facing the water pavilion in the backyard, there was no wind at night but it was still a little cold, but the two of them still had the window open, chatting while eating, which was very comfortable. Shu Kai is easy-going and unpretentious, and he acts very cheerfully and directly, Sun Xiaowu feels more and more that it is a very comfortable thing to be with him.
After the meal, Shu Kai packed the leftovers and handed them to Sun Xiaowu, while saying, "I'll leave early tomorrow morning, you have to eat by yourself." ”
Sun Xiaowu smiled, "How long will you be there?" ”
Shu Kai let out a long breath, looking overwhelmed, "At least 1 month." ”
Sun Xiaowu nodded, not wanting to be too sad, and said: "It is estimated that there will be a lot of guests in the hall, I will go to the backyard to have a look, if there is no one there, we will go around to the parking lot from there." "I'm at the waterwheel, and when there's no one, I'll wave to you, and you'll come out again?" ”
Shu Kai smiled and nodded in agreement.
Sun Xiaowu came to the backyard, there was really no one here, she stood next to the waterwheel and waved at Shu Kai, and shouted in a low voice: "Shu Shao, there is no one here, come here!" ”
Shu Kai stood at the window, smiling and making an OK gesture at her.
It was dark and empty, Sun Xiaowu had a feeling of being a thief, clenched his fists to give himself courage, patted his chest with his hand, pressed his restless heartbeat, and suddenly heard a voice, and said coldly: "Are you asking for leave just to be with him?" ”
Looking back, it turned out to be Qiao Yu.
^^^^^^^^^
Sun Xiaowu was startled by the sudden sound, instinctively took two steps back, stepped on the slippery moss, and unexpectedly sat on the stone next to the pond with an unstable center of gravity, grinning in pain, and the packed lunch boxes were scattered all over the ground. It was also thanks to her quick eyes and hands that she pulled the wooden seat on the side in time, otherwise it would not be a joke to fall into the pond in this weather.
Qiao Yu didn't mean to support at all, Sun Xiaowu could only support himself and get up, his heart still palpitating, and asked timidly: "Why are you here?" ”
The other party's voice was full of chill and disdain, "If you can come, can't I come?" ”
Sun Xiaowu had already learned his choking skills, and he didn't want to be like him, let alone have a conflict with Shu Kai, so he said, "Have you eaten?" We've already eaten, so let's go first. ”
Sun Xiaowu was about to turn around and leave as he spoke, but he heard the creaking sound of high heels stepping on the gravel road not far away, and then someone asked, "Xiaochen, where are you?" ”
It's Liao Shiyu! Sun Xiaowu couldn't help but be stunned: he dared to act alone with Liao Shiyu, he was really carried away by love, and he didn't even want a future!
Qiao Yu shouted in the direction of Liao Shiyu: "I'm coming, the road is slippery here, don't come here!" ”
Qiao Yu said, turned around and was about to leave, before leaving, he glanced at Sun Xiaowu coldly and said, "Are you so anxious to find yourself a home?" Don't forget your contract with me, you can't resign yourself unless I dismiss you. ”
She has been with him for so long, and she has no credit and hard work, so she only left this sentence? She is a living person, not a thing, how can she be bound by a contract?
Sun Xiaowu's heart was sour and unpredictable for a while, and he couldn't help but reply: "What if there is a contract, it's a big deal to live in the company's dormitory!" ”
Qiao Yu stopped and didn't look back, "Do you want to go back to live in your broken attic?" So whatever you want! ”
