Chapter 595: A Moment and Eternity

The plane landed smoothly!

A cheer rang out in the cabin.

Although everyone already knew that they had escaped danger, the scene at this moment still made many people feel as if they had escaped death.

It's landed, it's great.

Even Shen Yumo, who had a stern face all the way and didn't even dare to look at Cheng Xuyuan, showed a hint of surprise and relaxation on his face.

But little An An, who didn't know what was going on, stretched out his arms sleepily, as if to say, "Don't disturb me."

"Where...where are you going to stay today?" Shen Yumo asked Cheng Xuyuan after getting off the plane.

Cheng Xuyuan looked at Shen Yumo's slightly red face and felt a little hesitant.

But after hesitating for a moment, he said solemnly: "I will leave tomorrow. I want to stay with Xiao An'an for a while longer."

"You still have a room over there, right?"

Upon hearing that Cheng Xuyuan was going to live with him, Shen Yumo couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy on his face.

When she asked the question just now, she was actually full of anxiety.

After all, Cheng Xuyuan had already started living in the guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio in order to avoid suspicion. Now under the circumstances, she had no idea where Cheng Xuyuan would live.

And now, she finally heard Cheng Xuyuan's choice.

This made her feel relieved.

She was a little scared, afraid that Cheng Xuyuan would continue to keep his distance from her after hearing what she said.

"Okay, if I need to explain to Fang Yuqing, I'll call her." Shen Yumo glanced at Cheng Xuyuan, then spoke to himself.

I asked you to explain to Fang Yuqing, I really lost my mind.

Thinking of the secrets of being a scumbag that he had discarded, Cheng Xuyuan's heart was filled with emotion.

Cheng Xuyuan took Xiao An An from Fang Yuqing's hands, and then did not dwell on this issue, but strode out of the airport.

After returning home, Cheng Xuyuan found that the nanny he hired had already tidied the house, and it did not look cold at all as if he had been away for more than ten days.

This made Cheng Xuyuan feel very relieved.

However, Cheng Xuyuan had just sat down and had not had time to pack up his things when he heard a knock on the door.

Who is this? Why is he knocking on the door at this time?

He felt a little dissatisfied, but he didn't need to care about it. Aunt Zhao, the nanny who was chatting with Shen Yumo, had already opened the door.

"Yumo, I heard that the plane was shaking violently when you came back!" Wang Yian quickly came to Shen Yumo and said in a hurried voice.

When Shen Yumo heard Wang Yian's words, a blush appeared on her face.

This blush on her face was certainly not because she was afraid of what happened on the plane. The blush on her face was mainly because she thought about what she had said to Cheng Xuyuan at that time.

The sudden problems with the plane made her feel stressed.

Under the pressure of feeling that if she didn't say it now, she would never have the chance to say it in the future, she told Cheng Xuyuan the secret that had been in her heart for the longest time.

When they divorced, she told Cheng Xuyuan that she just didn't want to owe him anything.

And now, she told Cheng Xuyuan that she liked him.

Although the two already have a child, but...

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Shen Yumo felt ashamed.

Although Cheng Xuyuan didn't say anything at this time, Shen Yumo had a feeling that Cheng Xuyuan's willingness to live here was related to what he said on the plane.

"Yian, the plane encountered some turbulence, which scared me, but fortunately everything is safe." Shen Yumo took a breath and tried to calm himself down.

Wang Yian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm glad you're alright, Yu Mo, you haven't been in the East China Sea these days, I can find someone to play with..."

Looking at the two people talking, Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.

He and Wang Yian are friends. If he doesn't say hello at this time, it would seem that the relationship between the two of them is a bit too cold.

"Happy New Year, Yian."

Wang Yian looked at Cheng Xuyuan who was walking over, and a hint of understanding appeared on his face.

She smiled and said, "Cheng Xuyuan, happy New Year to you too."

Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Yian, you wrote a lot of good works last year."

"I heard it's all ready to be published?"

When talking about his achievements last year, Wang Yian's face suddenly became a little excited.

Speaking of which, last year was when she became famous. Since attending the training course at the Literature Institute, her writing skills have improved greatly, and she has written several works that have all been well received.

It can be said that she has already made her mark.

However, Wang Yian could accept such praise from others calmly, but when the person who praised her became Cheng Xuyuan, she felt a little embarrassed.

Because Cheng Xuyuan's achievements are truly unmatched by many people.

Not to mention winning the Goncourt Prize, just the works he wrote last year can be called masterpieces.

"Xuyuan, I am far behind you." Wang Yian said with a smile: "People say that I am just a rising star."

"But you are a teacher who can give us lessons."

As he was talking, Wang Yian suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are you coming back with Yu Mo?"

Cheng Xuyuan was just about to say yes when Shen Yumo quickly said, "Xuyuan is going to the United States to attend the Oscars, and it's a good time to transfer here."

Shen Yumo's words seemed to be a deliberate explanation.

In fact, she didn't need to explain at all.

This is like a guilty conscience.

Facing Shen Yumo's explanation, Cheng Xuyuan remained silent.

When two people compete to talk about this kind of thing, it seems that the more they explain, the worse it gets.

Let Shen Yumo speak. It’s okay for her to say whatever she likes.

"Xuyuan, some time ago I heard someone say that you were going to the United States to receive an Oscar. I thought it was a rumor. I didn't expect it to be true."

“You are really amazing.”

"The novels I write can win awards in the United States."

When Wang Yian said this, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Xuyuan, if you go to the United States, can you bring something for me?"

Cheng Xuyuan never expected that Wang Yian would ask him to bring something.

But then I thought that going abroad is a difficult thing at this time.

Generally speaking, whenever someone goes abroad, they will encounter various relatives asking them to bring things back.

Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is it?"

Wang Yian hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to buy a small tape recorder, about the size of a brick. Can you help me buy it?"

Although Cheng Xuyuan didn't want to have too much luggage, Wang Yian was Shen Yumo's friend after all.

He came to see Shen Yumo in a hurry at this time. If he didn't even agree to such a request, it would feel like he was not giving Shen Yumo face.

What's more, the things Wang Yian asked to buy were not too big.

So Cheng Xuyuan could only say: "I'll look for it for you."

"If I can find it, I'll buy it back for you."

When Wang Yian heard Cheng Xuyuan's agreement, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

Some time ago, she happened to see a friend holding a brick-sized portable radio and wanted to buy one.

But her friend told her that this tape recorder was not available in Donghai and Yanjing.

My friend brought this when his relatives came back from outside.

This made Wang Yian very disappointed. Now that Cheng Xuyuan went to the United States, she couldn't help but ask Cheng Xuyuan for help.

Cheng Xuyuan's agreement undoubtedly brought Wang Yian a little closer to his wish.

"Then I'll go home later and get the money for you. I can't exchange it for US dollars here right now. Do you think I can use it..." Having said this, Wang Yian was a little unable to continue.

Although she doesn't use foreign currency often, she knows the trouble of exchanging foreign currency.

And if you exchange it privately, the exchange rate will be higher.

Cheng Xuyuan looked at Wang Yian, who looked a little embarrassed, and gently waved his hand and said, "Yian, there's no need to be polite between us."

"If I can find it for you, you can pay me for it."

"Don't be surprised if you can't find it."

Seeing Cheng Xuyuan being so generous, Wang Yian felt that it would be petty if he continued to dwell on this matter.

So she smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you the money when I come back."

At this point, Wang Yian suddenly asked: "Cheng Xuyuan, when will you come back?"

"In a few days, the awards for last year's Outstanding Short Story Award and these past three years' Outstanding Novella Award will be presented."

"I heard that several of your works have been selected and will win at least one award."

"Will you be able to claim the prize in time?"

Cheng Xu knew much more about this matter than Wang Yian.

He discussed the matter of receiving the award with Zhang Guangnian, and finally Zhang agreed to let the editor help him receive the award.

When Wang Yian asked him about it now, he smiled and said, "I probably won't be able to claim the award in time."

"But if there is an award, I'll ask the magazine to help me collect it."

Seeing Cheng Xuyuan speaking so easily, a thought suddenly came to Wang Yian's mind, that is, Cheng Xuyuan no longer cared too much about this kind of award.

It is precisely because of this indifference that what he said was so natural.

Cheng Xuyuan seems to be still working hard for this award that he no longer cares about.

After chatting for a while, Wang Yian and Shen Yumo went to the room to chat, while Cheng Xuyuan returned to his temporary bedroom to read.

"Yu Mo, are you and Cheng Xuyuan going to reconcile?" Wang Yian's face was full of curiosity.

Shen Yumo shook his head and said, "Yian, didn't I tell you that Cheng Xuyuan is going to the United States, so he will come with us to Donghai for a transfer."

"As for why he lives here, it's naturally because he wants to spend more time with his son."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"You, please stop helping me to have wild thoughts."

Hearing Shen Yumo say this, a hint of regret flashed across Wang Yian's eyes.

As a friend, she really hopes that Shen Yumo can be happy.

But now it seems that this is still a luxury.

After hesitating for a while, she still said to Shen Yumo: "Yumo, I think it's not a big deal for you to take care of Xiao An'an by yourself."

"if……"

Shen Yumo interrupted softly, "Yian, let's not talk about my business."

"It's the same old story after all the talk."

"I heard that you are going to..."

Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to set. After chatting a lot of nonsense, Shen Yumo and Wang Yian walked out of the room in a very happy mood and saw Cheng Xuyuan standing in the yard holding little An An.

Little An An is looking at a flower that has just bloomed.

Cheng Xuyuan pointed at the flowers, as if he was talking about something tirelessly.

Under the light of the setting sun, the two people give people a feeling that they are both shining.

Looking at this situation, Shen Yumo couldn't bear to blink.

Wang Yian, who was standing next to her, said softly, "Yu Mo, I think you should want to see more scenes like this."

"I think you should make this scene last longer."

Shen Yumo hesitated for a moment and didn't say anything.

Just as she was immersed in this painting-like scene, a knock on the door broke this extremely warm scene.

"Why are you knocking on the door at this time?" Wang Yian was a little annoyed by the person knocking on the door.

However, as Aunt Zhao opened the door, Wang Yian suddenly stopped talking.

Because the person who came was Xie Jin! Cheng Xuyuan held Xiao An'an in his arms and greeted Xie Jin, "Director Xie, why are you here?"

When Xie Jin saw Cheng Xuyuan, he frowned and said, "Xuyuan, you are so mean. You came to Donghai without even asking to see me."

"If I hadn't known a few people at the Yanjing Film Association, I wouldn't have known you had come to the East China Sea."

"Tell me, what should I do when you come here without saying hello?"

Cheng Xuyuan looked at Xie Jin who was in a rage and said with a smile: "Director Xie, I'm leaving tomorrow, right? The time is too short, it's not worth bothering you."

"I plan to have a good drink with you after I come back."

"By the way, I'll discuss with him the movie that Lao Mi recently made."

Xie Jin looked at Cheng Xuyuan, who looked honest. Although he was a little skeptical, he also felt that it was difficult for him to dwell on this matter.

After a slight hesitation, he said to Cheng Xuyuan: "Xuyuan, it's a rare visit for you."

"Besides, it's just the New Year, and I've made plans with two friends. Why don't we go out for a drink?"

Cheng Xuyuan was not very interested in Xie Jin's proposal.

His flight is tomorrow, so at this moment, he would rather spend a good day with Xiao An An.

But Xie Jin is an old friend, and since he is here, if he refuses so harshly, it will be awkward when they meet in the future.

So after hesitating for a moment, Cheng Xuyuan still smiled and said, "Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."

"But let's make it clear, I have a plane to catch tomorrow, so I can't drink too much."

Xie Jin smiled and said, "Xuyuan, don't worry, I will definitely not let you drink too much this time."

"Let's go. During this Chinese New Year, a friend gave me two bottles of good wine, but I have been reluctant to drink them."

Since Cheng Xuyuan was going to leave, he naturally had to talk to Shen Yumo about it.

He asked Xie Jin to wait for a moment, then walked towards Shen Yumo holding Xiao An An in his arms.

"Yu Mo, Director Xie and I are going to have a meal and may not come back." Although Cheng Xuyuan decided not to drink too much, there are some things that cannot be achieved as he wishes.

After all, many times, people get drunk while drinking.

Shen Yumo felt a little reluctant when Cheng Xuyuan was asked to leave by Xie Jin.

She didn’t know if it was because of what she said on the plane today, but she hoped that Cheng Xuyuan could have a meal at home before leaving.

Moreover, she was ready to cook, but she didn't expect Xie Jin to come.

However, Shen Yumo understood this situation.

Xie Jin and Cheng Xuyuan are good friends. Normally speaking, Director Xie is still the elder.

He came here in person, and if Cheng Xuyuan didn't leave, it would be too disrespectful.

Many times, it’s all about face.

"Okay, then I won't cook for you."

After saying this, Shen Yumo looked at Cheng Xuyuan who was about to leave and couldn't help but said, "Come back if you can."

“A hotel is not as comfortable as staying at home.”

There was an obvious pause of more than ten seconds between the latter sentence and the previous one.

It's like a special explanation of the previous sentence.

Cheng Xuyuan was stunned for a moment after hearing what Shen Yumo said, and finally smiled at Shen Yumo and said, "I will try not to get drunk."

"dad……"

Xiao Anan looked at Cheng Xuyuan who was about to leave and waved quickly.

Cheng Xuyuan looked at Xiao An'an and felt reluctant to leave. He stretched out his hand and pinched Xiao An'an's face, then walked out the door with Xie Jin.

"This Director Xie really doesn't understand romance."

After Wang Yian and the other two people left, he said, "Cheng Xuyuan stayed in Donghai for one night, and then he ran over."

"He really is a bit of a spoiler!"

Shen Yumo looked at his friend who was grumbling, and said with a smile: "Yian, they are friends hanging out, so don't mess around..."

Wang Yian sighed and said, "Okay, I won't say anything more."

"I was planning to go home for dinner today, but I won't be going back."

"I'd better eat with you."

Shen Yumo looked at his friend's carefree demeanor, smiled and said, "Okay, let's have something good today."

Cheng Xuyuan also knew the people Xie Jin had an appointment with this time. One was Chen Dinglei, who was currently in charge of content at the Shanghai Film Studio, and the other was Ma Xiaochuan, who was the cinematographer for Xie Jin.

Since everyone was familiar with each other and the place for dinner was still the guesthouse of Shanghai Film Studio, the atmosphere of the meal was very warm from the beginning.

And Xie Jin didn't ask Cheng Xuyuan to come over this time to discuss business.

His purpose was to have a few drinks with Cheng Xuyuan and then see Cheng Xuyuan off.

After all, Cheng Xuyuan asked the United States to participate in the Oscar awards ceremony.

"Xuyuan, this is my toast to you, I wish you in advance to win the Best Screenwriter award." Xie Jin raised his glass and said to Cheng Xuyuan with a smile.

Cheng Xuyuan felt a headache when he saw Xie Jin's wine.

Although he had always tried not to drink too much, he drank quite a bit now.

Seeing Xie Jin's wine glass, he smiled and said, "Director Xie, I may not win the award."

"Why don't I drink this cup after I win the award?"

Xie Jin smiled and said, "Xuyuan, I think you will definitely win the prize."

"I've seen The Shawshank Redemption. How could it not win an award? Come on, cheers."

With no other options, Cheng Xuyuan could only drink the glass of wine.

Chen Dinglei and the other man sitting on both sides were drinking at this time, but they both had one thought in their minds, that is, is it really possible for Cheng Xuyuan to win the award? After all, that is an Oscar!
