It was close to eleven o'clock.

The group returned to the hotel lobby.

"We still have filming tomorrow, so I won't send you."

Jiang Zuping waved her hand and said reluctantly, and then she took out a jade pendant from her pocket and handed it to Xu Ning.

"I went to film a few days ago, and I asked for it from the senior monk in the temple and gave it to you, I hope you will have a prosperous career in the future and always remember me."

Xu Ning smiled and took the jade pendant: "Thank you, Zuping, next time I go to Treasure Island to teach you kung fu." ”

Jiang Qinqin glared at Xu Ning angrily, and her heart was puffing up: "Little pervert, see one and love another." ”

But she was still smiling on the surface, and took a small box out of her bag.

"I originally wanted to give it to you later, but since Zu Ping sent it, then I'll give it to you now."

Jiang Qinqin was holding a beautiful watch in her hand.

Xu Ning didn't have much research on this thing, and he didn't know the brand.

Zhao Wenzhuo next to him said in surprise:

"Rolex, Xu Ning, our piano is really good."

"Sister Qin, it's too precious."

Xu Ning waved his hand and refused, he had filmed for so many days, and with a total salary of more than 10,000 yuan, it is estimated that he could not buy half a watch.

Jiang Qinqin doesn't have many scenes, and it is estimated that she doesn't take much money, but now she gives herself such a valuable thing all at once.

Let him feel like he is doing a little white face.

"Take it, and keep what my sister gave you."

Seeing that Xu Ning refused to accept it, Zhao Wenzhuo came out to play a round: "Haha, if you don't accept me, you can ask for it." ”

Seeing so many people in the hall watching, if it continues like this, the impact will not be good.

He thought about taking it first and returning it to her later.

"Then thank you, Sister Qin."

"You're kind to me...... Small gifts. ”

Jiang Qinqin waved her hand generously, and then walked into the elevator with her arm around Jiang Zuping's shoulder.

Xu Ning and Zhao Wenzhuo were left behind.

"I think Qinqin is very interesting to you, what do you think?" Zhao Wenzhuo asked.

I didn't expect Brother Zhuo to be gossipy...... He cared so much about Xu Ning and Jiang Qinqin tonight, maybe it was related to the fact that he had a sister-brother relationship when he was developing in Xiangjiang a few years ago.

In 1994, he met Anita Mui under the introduction of Leslie Cheung.

A year later, he fell in love with Anita Mui.

But this sister-brother relationship lasted less than a year before they broke up due to a misunderstanding.

Therefore, when Zhao Wenzhuo saw Jiang Qinqin's admiration for Xu Ning, he couldn't help but ask a few more words while he was drinking.

"Brother Zhuo, I only treat Qinqin as a sister."

"I see, come as you wish."

"yes, I understand."

Now, this relationship is not close or far, maybe in a few months, Jiang Qinqin will forget what happened in the past few days.

……

Back to your hotel room.

After washing and climbing into bed, Xu Ning adjusted his sleeping position.

After a long time, Jiang Qinqin made a phone call.

Xu Ning slipped down and opened the door, leaving a crack as before, and it didn't take long for Jiang Qinqin to sneak in.

Another night of hard work, sweating profusely.

The next day,

Until the sun rises three poles,

Xu Ning slowly opened his eyes.

He lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, thinking of his wonderful performance last night, and Jiang Qinqin's affectionate and selfless devotion, just by looking at her expression, he knew that she was flying happily.

I have to say that my sister has a lot of tricks.

Following.

Get up and wash up.

At ten o'clock, Xu Ning walked out of the door of the hotel.

sent a message to director Xu Jinliang, and he got into a taxi to the station.

Along the way, I saw many group performers squatting on the side of the road and waiting for the scene, and many people had a trace of numbness on their faces.

This kind of numbness Xu Ning understands that it is a kind of despair that cannot see hope.

Many people have neither a skill nor a university degree, so they can only wait here day after day to be selected.

In fact, among these group performances, there are very few who can get out of the way.

Even if you become a special actor, it is a luxury for many people.

But who doesn't have a dream?

Many people think that they will be the one who is favored by the heavens.

But it won't be long before reality slaps you in the face.

In his previous life, Xu Ning also went to the capital with the mentality of becoming famous, became a glorious Beipiao, and then returned home in less than a year.

So many years

In so many group performances,

In addition to Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Liying becoming big stars.

Everyone else became a stepping stone.

I went out of the Hengdian scenic spot to the bus station, spent a few yuan to buy a bus ticket to Hangzhou, and swayed to the station along the way.

After arriving at the Hangzhou Railway Station, I took the green train to the north.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Xu Ning arrived at Jinling Station, which is located on the edge of Xuanwu Lake.

As soon as I arrived in Jinling, I felt a strong historical atmosphere.

The tree is a plane tree, and the city is Jinling City.

The autumn in Jinling is very beautiful, perhaps because of the company of the plane tree, or perhaps because of the confidence brought to her by the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

The sun is setting.

On the golden Wutong Avenue in the distance, pedestrians are in twos and threes.

There is no bleakness of autumn, but a warm beauty.

Xu Ning stood in the square in front of the railway station and looked at the Xuanwu Lake dressed in gold.

On a whim, he crossed Longpan Road and walked a few hundred meters along Huanhu Road.

Feel the scenery of Xuanwu Lake at the end of 2001.

After walking for a while, he flagged down a taxi on the side of the road and went straight to Jinling Normal University.

When he came to the bank near the school gate, Xu Ning took out 2,000 yuan and prepared it for his eldest sister Xu Xinyan.

I remember the Spring Festival of the second year after my eldest sister graduated in my previous life.

Xu Ning's family of six sat in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala, and during the chat, the eldest sister suddenly said a secret that the whole family didn't know.

It turned out that Xu Xinyan had been preparing for the graduate school entrance examination since the second semester of her junior year.

And at the beginning of 2002, she passed the re-examination of Jinling University.

But that year, Xu Ning was a group performer in the capital, not only did he not earn a penny, but also asked his family to pay him.

Families who are not wealthy are even worse.

If you support yourself for graduate school, your family can't afford to pay for it.

Therefore, Xu Xinyan thought twice and gave up this opportunity and chose to sign a work contract with a financial company.

This has also become a regret for the eldest sister Xu Xinyan.

If he had studied as a graduate student at Jinling University back then, he would definitely have a different life after he came out.

This time, Xu Xinyan will have no more regrets.

Today's Xu Ning has become an eighteenth-tier actor, although he is not yet famous, but there is no problem in earning money for his eldest sister to finish graduate school.

Just as he passed by a small restaurant, he found a familiar figure.

"Big sister?"

Xu Ning stood at the door and shouted happily.

Xu Xinyan, who was eating, didn't realize that someone was calling him, and was still eating rice noodles with her head down.

"Xu Xinyan."

Xu Ning called her name, and now not only Xu Xinyan looked over, but the three roommates who had eaten with her all looked at the door.

"Ah...... Xiao Ning, why are you here? ”

Xu Xinyan excitedly put down her chopsticks and ran out, took Xu Ning's hand and reproached:

"Why didn't you tell me in advance when you came to Jinling."

Without waiting for Xu Ning to speak, Xu Xinyan said with relief:

"Have you figured out that you won't go to the capital to be an actor? How nice it is to go back to Jinling. ”

"Have you eaten? Hurry up and come in and have dinner with my sister. ”

"Sister, I haven't eaten yet."

Xu Ning grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.

Xu Xinyan heard that he hadn't eaten yet, so she pulled him and walked to the store.

It's a small shop that specializes in rice noodles in casseroles, and it's full of college students who come to eat.

"Xinyan, is this your brother?"

A tall, beautiful girl asked with a grin.
