Looking back on what happened that day, it was like a dream, and Zhong Li didn't sleep well all night.

Every time he closed his eyes, Rong Ling's face appeared in front of him.

His bottomless pupils, the wide, slender hands he clasped her, the slightly bulging phalanges when he tensed, and the taste on his lips...... The look he looked at her as he left.

In fact, she didn't understand what he meant.

She was so busy with her work that she quickly stopped thinking about it and focused more on her work.

When filming was in early January, her role was finished, and she cleaned up and said goodbye to the crew and went back.

The drama is in the form of filming and broadcasting, and the first season only has 12 episodes, which was released before the New Year's Festival.

Zhong Li plays the role of Bai Yueguang's second female partner this time, although the character design is much better than the vicious female supporting actress before, but in this kind of idol drama, this kind of second female will definitely be scolded.

She didn't expect her reputation to be good, but the response after the broadcast was a bit unexpected to her.

Although some viewers said that they hated her at the beginning, they didn't like to watch a pure love drama and they had to watch the male protagonist have Bai Yueguang, and the fans of the female protagonist scolded her even more ugly, but after the broadcast, they were still praising her for her beauty and good acting skills, and there were also those who said that the male protagonist was blind and fell in love with the female protagonist.

She casually clicked on a fashion exchange platform, and some bloggers posted relevant news:

[My God, this second female is too good-looking, it's the feeling of white moonlight#Spring breeze blows you#Zhong Li]

Three stills are also attached.

Zhong Li realized that he still had an exclusive entry on this platform.

She immediately registered an account and verified it.

There are many fans who pay attention to her one after another. After half a day's effort, it actually broke more than 100,000.

She posted a short video, and there were people saying hello to her one after another, all of them were very friendly, some praised her for her beauty, some said that she had good acting skills, and looked forward to her new drama.

It felt like a dream.

She has opened several fashion communication platforms and social media platforms, whether it is graphic or video APP, without exception, there is no scolding for her, and the brushes are basically praised, even if there is criticism, there is no too fierce rhetoric.

When it was just broadcast, some passers-by edited her cut, saying that this female number two was quite good-looking, but she was scolded by the fans of the heroine Ruan Yuanyao, saying that she wanted to be crazy about being popular.

Ruan Yuanyao is a child star, and she is also a part of this drama, although she is not as popular as those popular flowers, she has been filming for more than ten years, and her popularity has always been good.

During that time, there were no good words about Zhong Li, and the occasional praise was also restricted.

Experienced Yang Jue said that this is explosion-proof, and Ruan Yuanyao's company should have greeted the platform.

Some of these social media platforms, such as a forum, a blog and a station, are directly affiliated with some film and television culture companies, and most of them cooperate with some well-known film and television culture companies.

Ruan Yuanyao is the first female artist signed by Tianyu, and is known as Tianyu's "Shuangyao" along with Ji Xinyao, although resources have declined because of popularity over the years, it is not comparable to an artist like Zhong Li who has no background and no company support.

"There has to be someone behind it, look at it, the number of views of your cut video is about to break 5 million! As a result, he didn't even enter the top 30 on the list, which must have been restricted. Her play is less than 1 million, shouldn't the dark box operation be so obvious! ”

Zhong Li doesn't know much about these data, and she is still very happy that someone cuts her.

Unexpectedly, with the popularity of the show, the wind review was completely reversed.

The popularity of the second female played by Zhong Li completely overshadowed the female one, and she was also edited into various MVs as white moonlight material, and the number of broadcasts remained high.

"Maybe she doesn't have the money to smash it behind her company." Yang Jue commented on potato chips.

Zhong Li still didn't know much about it, but he didn't dig deeper.

For her brain, she can't think of anything too complicated. What algorithm and what recommendation, she doesn't know anything, it's a good thing.

At the same time, a big thing happened in the industry.

Xu Huai, the former CEO of Tanglin Entertainment, jumped to a new company, and established a subsidiary of the whole industry chain integrating artist brokerage management, film and television investment, and marketing and publicity.

This is a new company dedicated to the development and production of head film and television works, which was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in less than half a year after its establishment, and it is said that the background is very amazing, and there is the support of bigwigs behind the scenes.

Xue Hong asked her privately if she would like to jump ship with her to this new company.

Zhong Li was still hesitating—in fact, confused.

Although she is a little hot now, there is no way to compare with a first- or second-tier actress like Tan Meixi.

She never thought that Xue Hong would dig her when she jumped ship.

Seeing her hesitation, Xue Hong said that she had no future at all in this small company, and she also wanted to praise her, but this company couldn't get any resources at all, and the management still had a series of problems. But the new company is completely different, whether it is capital, management, or development direction, it is not comparable to this kind of small company, what is she to hesitate about.

Zhong Li was actually very impressed, but she thought of her liquidated damages.

After hearing that she was worried about this, Xue Hong smiled directly, saying that only six or seven million is not a matter for Tianyu at all, and she can apply over there.

And most likely, you don't have to pay a dime.

Sure enough, as Xue Hong said, the termination of the contract went very smoothly.

After she changed to Tianyu, she also arranged a new dormitory, which is just behind Yintai and is in good condition.

It's just that she is a little reluctant to her original roommate and hasn't moved in yet.

-

There was a dinner in the evening, and Xue Hong asked Zhong Li to pick out the clothes provided by the brand.

Zhong Li picked out a smoke-pink skirt and regretted it after going out.

Although there was heating on site and in the car, the few minutes after getting off the bus to the hotel really made her shiver.

"You really have to be graceful, not warm." Tan Meixi, who was traveling with her, looked at her twice, and did not forget to pull the thick fox fur on her shoulders.

Zhong Li looked down, she was also wearing a bare-legged artifact.

Zhong Li regretted it and asked her, "Do you still have more socks?" ”

"It's gone." Tan Meixi shook her head.

She doesn't look down on Zhong Li, but she has acted in a few small web dramas.

An actor also brought goods live on a short video platform, and the price really dropped.

Although you can make money in a short time, it has a great impact on word of mouth.

This is a dinner with a brand partner, and the protagonist is Tan Meixi, who has just endorsed a new product of Z's family recently.

Zhong Li was just a special guest, piggybacking, promoting one of the brand's face masks.

During the meal, Tan Meixi and the other party's operations director touted each other throughout the whole process, and Zhong Li was also left far behind.

She was a little absent-minded, and she didn't notice that after the elevator door opened, a group of people came out of it.

The one at the front, dressed in a navy blue suit, is a recent Financial Times regular, the new CEO of Tengen Pictures.

The man beside him was slightly half a head taller than him, with one hand in his pocket, and his expression was indifferent.

As soon as the operation director of this brand saw it, he went up and greeted the other party warmly: "Mr. Xu, I can see you here......

After talking about it, I found that the man next to Xu Huai was a little uncertain.

I don't seem to have this person in my impression, but this person is extraordinary, not like an ordinary person.

Xu Huai whispered something to him, and the expression of the operation director seemed to be stiff for a moment, and he was not as enthusiastic as before, but a little restrained.

The atmosphere has also become a little inexplicably eccentric.

Zhong Li, who was standing not far away, also saw him, but he only watched the others greet him.

She didn't even have the qualifications to squeeze in.

She lowered her head and kicked her shoes, feeling a little bored.

"-5 degrees Celsius, you're wearing that?" A familiar voice came from behind him.

Then her shoulders sank slightly, and a suit with a man's body temperature wrapped her up.

Zhong Li subconsciously grabbed the collar of his suit and looked back.

It was actually Rong Ling, who had already left.

"Aren't you leaving?" She looked at him with surprise and disbelief.

"Let's go." He didn't answer the question, and put his hand on her back slightly.

His palm was broad and powerful, and when he touched her skin, he only held it gently, and he was polite.

But the temperature still remained on her skin like a brand, and Zhong Li was stunned for a moment before trotting to follow.

When the elevator arrived, he raised his hand to block the elevator door and motioned for her to go in first.

Zhong Li raised his eyes to look at him for a while, but did not move.

"I have flowers on my face?" He laughed.

She pursed her lips and shook her head, and slipped into the elevator.

No one would take care of her like this, whether as a child or as she grew up.

Although it sounds a little superficial, and it seems like it is just a gesture to him, but for her, it is really a rare kindness.

Because in the past, she was basically the kind of person who was ignored.

When the elevator reached the first floor, the driver had already pulled the car over and went around to the back seat to open the door for her.

Zhong Li got in.

There was plenty of heating in the car, and for a moment there was an illusion of transition from the cold winter to spring.

She wore 15 centimeters of high heels, and her heels were sore after standing for a long time, and her heels were still a little worn.

She quietly pulled her foot out of her shoe and rested it on the fluffy carpet.

His suit is wide, delicate and structured, and it is comfortable to drape over the body.

Coupled with the heater, she fell asleep unconsciously.

The car stopped halfway, the driver went down, and after a while he came back with two small bags and handed them to Rong Ling.

Zhong Li saw him open one of the bags and dig out a box of band-aids.

I tore one off and stuck it on her heel for her.

In the other bag is a pair of women's slippers.

"Put it on." He placed his shoe at her feet.

“…… Oh. She put her foot in her slipper.

The size is just right and comfortable.

She quietly glanced back at him, his gaze already turned to the window.

The occasional streamer reflected on his face, the silhouette was three-dimensional, handsome and compelling.

It was as if there was a fawn in her heart that kept bumping.

After a while, I realized that this was not the way back to my accommodation: "...... Where is this? ”

"Here we are." Rong Ling smiled and had already stepped forward.

After Zhong Li got out of the car, he looked up at the towering buildings in front of him.

I've been here before, west of Chang'an Street, less than 100 meters in front of the International Trade Bridge, a well-deserved CBD center, but I have never been close to this park, there are people patrolling day and night, and you can't go in and out at will. In addition to some research institutes, there have also been some heavyweight cooperative enterprises settled in the past two years, but they are not open to rent.

The car entered the park and drove around for a while, stopping at the entrance of a gray-blue building.

There was no one in the lobby, the shiny marble floor was as smooth as new, and only two cleaners were mopping the floor with their heads bowed, which seemed extraordinarily quiet.

The receptionist at the front desk saw Rong Lingleng for a moment, but he was obviously well-trained, and he bowed and didn't look at it anymore.

On the top floor, Zhong Li followed him out of the elevator and walked straight to the largest office at the end of the corridor.

This is the first time Zhong Li has come to his office.

Spacious and neat, but it is not the kind of modern business-style decoration she is used to, but it is somewhat retro and heavy, using a large area of Chinese cross-sectional wood lattice and hollow carved design, and high-end hardwood furnishings can be seen everywhere.

The south desk is a semi-curved floor-to-ceiling window, and a pot of North American holly rests in the corner. The black-gray-brown is dotted with red, adding a touch of brightness to the dull and monotonous color.

On the west side is a whole shelf with various books placed in an orderly manner, and at the foot are light brown and white jade patchwork wood grain stones.

"Drink something?" He asked her in the tea boiling area.

Zhong Li: "I don't even know what it is, how to choose?" ”

Rong Ling looked back at her, and there was a smile on the corner of her lips.

Zhong Li looked at him puzzled.

What is he laughing at?

He later made her a cup of tea.

Zhong Li didn't like it very much, she liked to drink coffee and milk, so she took a sip and found that it was not bad: "What kind of tea is this?" It smells so good. ”

The color is dark, the tea soup is clear, and there is no astringency in the mouth.

"Qimen, if you like it, I'll wrap it up for you later."

At that time, she didn't know that the price of this tea was more expensive than gold, whether it was in the market or whether it was given to him by the leader of a prefecture-level city, so she said "um" stupidly.

Actually, she didn't quite understand why he brought her here.

And that kiss without warning.

Zhong Li held the teacup in both hands, and his thoughts flew around.

Rong Ling didn't greet her again, but sat down at the desk to sort out the documents, during which he answered a phone call, and then a secretary came to knock on the door and pick up a document he had signed.

After that, two men who looked like executives came to report to him about the summit forum and the economic development park.

Zhong Li didn't understand, and he didn't dare to make a sound, so he silently nestled in the sofa and drank tea.

They would also show surprise when they saw her, but they all withdrew their gaze after just one glance, never looked more, asked more, and did not forget to close the door when they went out, as if she was just an invisible person.

Zhong Li was a little uncomfortable and couldn't help but look around.

"Waiting?" He walked over, took off his tie, and loosened the neckline.

He was very skillful in unbuttoning with one hand, and opened two at once.

She casually raised her eyes and caught a glimpse of his open neckline and exposed collarbone, and lowered her head silently: "It's okay." ”

"Aren't you busy?"

"It's nothing." He sat down in the empty seat beside her.

He was tall, and the couch was visibly sunk down.

This made Zhong Li also feel a little like she was falling, and the string in her heart didn't feel tight.

When she was nervous, she would play with her fingers, and her index finger would spin and turn over there, and Rong Ling would laugh: "Are you nervous?" ”

Then he asked her, "Nervous about staying with me?" ”

Unexpectedly, she was quite sincere, nodded her head and said, "A little." ”

"Why? I'm fierce? ”

She shook her head, cautiously spiking on his look.

He was really handsome, mature, restrained, with gentle eyes, and her appearance was clearly reflected under his dark eyes.

It was the deep sea, as if it were going to be drowned in it willingly.

Sober and sunk, unable to break free.

Zhong Li didn't answer the question, and instead told him some trivial things about himself.

At first, I was worried that he would be impatient, but later I found that he was very patient and seemed quite interested.

Although I don't know if I'm really interested or pretending, at least, I don't see any impatience on the surface.

Speaking of her changing her contract to Tianyu, he just nodded, and there was no surprise on his face.

Although this seemed to be a very important thing to her, to him, it seemed to be a trivial matter.

That's right, those top and first-line actresses are just a little more advanced singing in front of him.

Zhong Li said in his heart.

"You're from a good family, aren't you? I've heard them say it in private, but I don't really understand it. ”

"What do you say in private?" He took a sip of his tea, seemingly a little interested.

"I said, I don't understand very well, anyway, it's just that rich."

He just smiled silently.

Zhong Li didn't quite understand the meaning of his smile, and looked up at him.

But he didn't mean to explain either.

His eyes are clear and clear, but they seem to be stained by the dark night outside the window, bottomless and elusive.

Zhong Li had no reason and was a little restrained.

She was too busy to divert the topic and didn't dare to ask more about his family.

She says something of her own.

"My family is in a small mountain village in the south, my father passed away when I was a child, and my mother never came back after she went to the city, I was brought up by my grandmother, who was very kind to me. However, when I was 7 years old, my grandmother passed away, and I was taken to live with my uncle and aunt. They had a small shop in the town at that time, and they also had a younger brother, because there was not enough room, I lived in the kitchen, and there would be a lot of rats burrowing around in the summer, and I was often bit......ten at that time."

After Rong Ling listened, he didn't speak for a long time.

"Makes you laugh." She hung her head.

She didn't want to talk to him about it, no girl would show her embarrassing side in front of someone she liked.

But if he didn't say it, he would know sooner or later, so it was better to tell him himself.

and—

"I didn't go to college."

She later explained her recent troubles: "Sometimes I always feel like I can't read the script. ”

She has also auditioned for some roles as a director, even if it is some eighteenth-line supporting roles.

But the dramas directed by the director, without exception, the scripts are relatively solid, and the characters created will not be very flat characters, which is sometimes a little difficult to understand.

It was the first time she had told him about her level of education, and there was a sense of shame that she was exposed in broad daylight.

His expression was the same as usual, and there was no surprise.

Just asked her, "Do you plan to continue your studies?" ”

"If I have the opportunity in the future, I will try my best to further my education. However, at this stage, I still want to make more money. She smiled shyly, revealing two small tiger teeth.

For a moment, Rong Ling even felt that she would bite someone when she was angry.

Like that kind of feline creature with a particularly big temper.

When you are tame, you are very tame, and when you are angry, you can lift the table and lift the tiles.

The thought made him laugh unconsciously and curled the corners of his lower lip.
