Uneasy

Sanya, the next morning.

At a popular snack bar among tourists and tourists, waves of breakfast patrons streamed in. In a discreet corner, a single figure remained, occasionally looking down at his phone, occasionally glancing toward the door, oblivious to his surroundings. The patrons, even some young women drawn to his impressive height, glimpsed a few times, but none noticed the celebrity hiding beside them.

As a top star who likes to wander around by himself, he has already developed a set of secrets on how to hide himself in the crowd.

First, when it comes to clothing, try to keep it as ordinary as possible, so it doesn't look out of place. Avoid wearing any obvious accessories, especially those that might be worn for camera purposes. Secondly, don't be shy, as if you're afraid others won't recognize you as a celebrity. Look directly into people's eyes. Finally, and most importantly, maintain this belief: I'm just an ordinary person, and others won't easily recognize me. Just be open and honest.

In fact, in real life, apart from young people who are chasing stars, not many people pay attention to the developments in the entertainment industry.

Especially for someone like him who has only a little traffic and almost no national popularity, walking on the street without any concealment, few people will stop to observe and pay attention to whether this person is a star in front of the screen?

So, don't put yourself in too high a position, it will make your life much easier.

And this ordinary person who doesn't consider himself a top male star at all is exactly the one who invited Sugao to breakfast last night.

He has been waiting in the store for more than two hours.

Will my sister keep the appointment?

Judging from the current situation, it is obviously not optimistic.

There was only one hour left before the time he said he would leave automatically at 12 noon.

In the hotel.

Sugao finally fell asleep with a groggy head in the early morning, and when he woke up he found that it was already 11 o'clock.

His chaotic brain was not fully awake yet, but Sugao still remembered Yingran's invitation to him deeply... There was only one hour left until the 12 o'clock he mentioned.

Jianguo couldn't help but open WeChat. Apart from the message of arrival and good night he sent after returning to his hotel from her place last night, there had been no further messages.

He did what he said, not disturbing her rest or putting pressure on her.

Just waiting quietly alone.

Is she going?

Before going to bed, she checked the route and time. It would take about ten minutes to walk from here to that store.

When faced with something that makes her hesitant, Sugao, who is used to making decisions in some way, suddenly stared at the screen of her mobile phone. After the time jumped to 01 minute, she began to silently repeat in her mind, go, not go, go, not go, go... She didn't know how many times she said it. When she unconsciously whispered the word "go", the time instantly jumped to 02 minutes.

The answer came instantly.

Without any hesitation, Sugao immediately got up from the bed, took out some clothes from the suitcase, and walked quickly to the bathroom.

Through the mirror, Jianguo clearly saw himself with an uncontrollable upward smile on his lips.

This is the first bright smile that has appeared on my face in these days.

So, don’t think about why, put down your burdens, and go if you want to.

When Jianguo walked into the store that Yingran mentioned, he immediately saw the familiar figure sitting in the corner.

He lowered his head, staring at his phone, wondering if he was struggling with whether to urge her or if he was afraid of being recognized.

The latter seems unlikely.

Because there were no more than three customers in the entire store, no one paid attention to him.

His drooping shoulders and arched waist clearly revealed his frustration... She actually cared about his emotions.

With an inexplicable feeling, perhaps a little bit of heartache, Sugao strode over.

When she sat down opposite the man, she heard a low and cold reminder: "Sorry, there is someone here."

Someone appeared, but did not look up.

It's like I've lost hope after experiencing too many disappointments.

The slight pain in his heart seemed even more obvious to Sugao, who squeezed out a "hmm" from the depths of his throat with difficulty.

Even such a simple syllable sounded like heavenly music to the man opposite. He suddenly raised his head, his big eyes with distinct black and white widened into a look of unbelievable shock, followed by brilliant surprise.

When she smiles, her eyes are curved like a crescent moon, and her spirited look is like a pearl that pushes aside the darkness of the night, more dazzling than the stars in the sky.

"Sister, you're here."

Suga suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to turn upwards due to the infection, and nodded his chin in a nonchalant manner.

There was no verbal response, just a simple action, but it still fascinated Yingran.

It's not just because he waited for her.

And the moment I saw her, some vulgar thoughts came to my mind.

Sugao, who hurried out, did not put on any makeup, revealing her fair, soft, collagen-filled face.

Her face was naturally beautiful and delicate, her eyes bright and clear. Without any makeup, she truly revealed her true appearance, pure and playful. Her outstanding appearance and ethereal figure seemed to perfectly blend purity and allure. This made him feel as if he had seen a sister who was slightly different from what he had known. Yet, she was still full of charm, and she still easily grabbed everyone's attention. And when such a girl, at this moment, had her eyes fixed solely on him, he felt a hint of vanity.

Ying Ran suppressed the joy in her heart and pushed the menu in front of Jianguo: "Sister, what do you want to eat?"

"It's all fine." Sugao's tone remained indifferent.

Ying Ran suggested, "Then I'll help my sister choose."

Suga simply hummed.

Yingran, who had some understanding of the taste of Sugao, quickly ordered the meal.

After waiting for a while, when all the food was served, Ying Ran's phone on the table began to vibrate violently. Jianguo unconsciously looked over and saw Xiao Gao's name on it.

The vibration of the phone made Ying Ran feel disturbed, his face looked a little bad, and the tone of the person who connected the phone was not very good either.

"What's wrong?"

"Yeah, I know, I know my limits."

"Okay, I told you I have an idea."

When Ying Ran hung up the phone in an extremely perfunctory manner, Jiang Guo inexplicably blurted out: "Is it Xiao Gao who came to urge you to leave?"

Facing Sugao's gaze, Yingran subconsciously didn't dare to lie and nodded softly.

Suga looked at the time and saw that there were only 10 minutes left until 12 o'clock.

The food in this restaurant is popular because it is freshly cooked, so the service takes a little longer.

Jianguo checked the time and without thinking too much, he immediately said to the waiter, "Hello, take away."

"Sister, you," Ying Ran's eyes showed confusion, and she didn't understand what Sugao meant.

Suga explained, "I'm packing some for you to eat on the way."

Instead of rushing a meal in 10 minutes, take it in the car and eat it slowly.

"No need." Ying Ran refused without thinking: "Sister, I'll eat here with you. It's okay to eat later."

Jianguo emphasized: "Don't be willful."

Although the closing ceremony of the film festival is the day after tomorrow, he should be able to make it even if he leaves tomorrow morning, but Xiao Gao is urging him like this, which means he must have other things to do.

Seeing that Sugao had a stern face, Yingran couldn't bring herself to say anything about staying any longer.

When watching Sugao sorting and packing things one by one like a caring girlfriend, her focused look made it impossible to take her eyes off... Yingran's mind suddenly became hot, and he couldn't control his mouth for a moment,

"Sister, how about you come with me to the closing ceremony of the film festival?"

Jianguo paused for a moment while picking up the food. "I wasn't invited, so why should I attend?"

Ying Ran immediately said in a seductive tone, "There are a lot of celebrities at the closing ceremony. You can join in the fun and get autographs or something."

However, Jianguo ruthlessly poured cold water on him: "I'm not interested in celebrities."

"Oh." Ying Ran, who had been acting on impulse, instantly collapsed after being rejected.

But he didn't give up. In less than a second, his eyes lit up again. "Sister, just go. The scenery over there where the closing ceremony is held is nice, and there are a lot of duty-free shops with cheap prices. Don't girls all like shopping?"

Jianguo ignored these tempting reasons and asked nonsensically, "Has Director Dongsheng been invited to the closing ceremony?"

This inexplicable sentence made Ying Ran stunned for a moment. Remembering that Director Dongsheng was indeed on the list of people attending the closing ceremony, he nodded woodenly: "Yeah."

"Then," Sugao's lips curled up slightly with a smile, "I'll go with you. I'll see if the opportunity is right. I have something to ask him."

Does my sister know Director Dongsheng?

"Oh." Ying Ran, looking somewhat dull, nodded: "Okay."

The next second, Ying Ran, who seemed to have just reacted, screamed: "Ah! Sister, you, you agree to go with me?"

Jianguo didn't respond. He just put all the packed things into the cooler bag and said, "Let's go. I have to go back to the hotel to pack my things."

The implication is: Yes, brother, I'm going with you.

Ying Ran, overjoyed at the realization, nodded repeatedly, "Okay."

He immediately called Xiao Gao, his tone unable to conceal his excitement: "Come to XXX Hotel right away, I'll leave from here."

After a hurried packing, Sugao got on the car to the venue for the closing ceremony of the film festival.

A journey that was not planned is about to begin.

After getting on the car that came to pick up Yingran, Jianguo saw Xiaogao, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

When Xiao Gao saw her, he looked as if he had been struck by lightning, but then his eyes turned a bit playful. After Suga glared at him fiercely, he was so scared that he dared not look her in the eye again.

But along the way, Xiao Gao made Sugao laugh.

It allowed her to gradually relax her tense heart and feel a kind of happiness she had never felt before.
