During the subsequent filming, Shen Shiqing and Xi Chi's relationship remained the same as before, except that Shen Shiqing would secretly keep track of the time.
Xi Chi has far more scenes with Wen Xinran than with Shen Shiqing, and Shen Shiqing has been seeing them acting together quite often lately.
It has to be said that Wen Xinran is indeed very dedicated when filming, but she's a bit too much of a tease.
To be honest, the skill level is a bit low, but it's very useful for some people. However, it's still a bit too inexperienced for her, Shen Shiqing.
It's a bit strange that I haven't heard her say anything sarcastic or witty lately.
Shen Shiqing went to Gu Bai's pet hospital and brought Little Rose back.
After some time apart, Gu Bai had fattened it up, and its wounds had healed.
Shen Shiqing treated Gu Bai to a meal, during which Shen Shiqing also heard many interesting stories about Lu Jingchu's childhood.
When Lu Jingchu returned from filming, Little Rose rushed towards him, drawn by his scent. Lu Jingchu took out his phone and snapped a few photos of him.
After putting her phone away, Lu Jingchu washed her hands and went into the kitchen without being told to.
He hasn't forgotten the cola chicken wings he promised someone last time.
Shen Shiqing lay on the sofa, the TV was on but he wasn't watching it. He was just alone and wanted to add some warmth to the atmosphere.
Since I'm bored anyway, I might as well post on Weibo and interact with my fans.
She flipped through the photo album and found that Shen Shiqing had posted the photos that Lu Jingchu had taken of her in the rose garden last time.
[@Shen Shiqing: A chance encounter with a rose garden]
As soon as the photo was posted, many fans rushed to like, comment, and share it.
In just a few minutes, it received over 10,000 likes.
"No, am I that popular?" Shen Shiqing began to doubt himself.
I opened my profile and found that I already had more than 20 million Weibo followers.
Yeah, I mean, isn't it rising a bit too fast?
Shen Shiqing switched to WeChat and sent a message to Sister Lin.
[Shen Shiqing]: I mean, Sister Lin, maybe we should tone it down a bit? Isn't it too obvious that you're buying followers on Weibo?
[Sister Lin]: Hmm?
[Sister Lin]: Do you know what you're saying?
[Sister Lin]: I haven't bought any powder. You got all this powder yourself. Be confident. You're quite popular now.
[Shen Shiqing]: Okay, I'll reluctantly believe it.
[Shen Shiqing]: How are things at the company?
Shen Shiqing entrusted all the affairs of opening his agency to Sister Lin. She trusted Sister Lin, unlike the people outside.
Previously, Sister Lin only managed one artist, Shen Shiqing. After Shen Shiqing terminated his contract, Sister Lin also resigned from Huaijiang Entertainment.
He went out and started his own business with Shen Shiqing.
She has earned a lot of money over the years, and she has also invested a lot of money in this company, so it's impossible for her not to care.
[Sister Lin]: Don't worry about me getting things done; it'll be settled soon.
[Sister Lin]: My boyfriend is calling me for dinner, I'm leaving now.
[Shen Shiqing]: Forget yourself when you see a beautiful woman!
[Sister Lin]: Same here, you're not bad either.
Shen Shiqing put down her phone, just as Lu Jingchu called her to eat. She was already drawn to the aroma of the food.
Who doesn't have a stay-at-home boyfriend?!
Xing Jianan received the call from Uncle Jiang on set just after filming wrapped up and she returned to her hotel.
He doesn't have any scenes to film tomorrow, so he can rest for a day.
After hanging up the phone with Uncle Jiang, he drove to the town almost immediately. He was so anxious when he went downstairs that he stumbled and almost fell.
On the way, he kept telling himself to calm down, but he couldn't stop recalling what Uncle Jiang had said on the phone.
"Xiao Xing, do you remember I told you last time about a female customer who did an exceptionally good job making silver jewelry on her first try?"
"The most outstanding and exquisite piece in the middle guest exhibition area is hers."
"The female customer said that if it was meant to be, the person she liked would come to collect it; if he didn't come, it meant they weren't meant to be."
"I found a photo while I was tidying up these past two days. It was left by that female guest, and the person she was taking a picture with looks like you."
"He looks surprisingly young, like he was in school."
...
Based on those descriptions, Xing Jianan was almost certain that the person in the photo was him.
"Uncle Jiang, could you wait a moment? I'll be right there."
"Oh, no rush, no rush. I've been in the store the whole time. How about this, you come over now, I'll go buy some groceries, and we can have a meal together later."
“Okay.” Xing Jianan rushed into the supermarket and bought a bunch of fruit as fast as he could. At five o’clock in the afternoon, Xing Jianan arrived at Uncle Jiang’s shop.
Uncle Jiang was busy in the kitchen in the backyard when he heard the noise and came out.
"Here's the photo, and there's something written on the back. You can take a look." Uncle Jiang compared it to the photo. "Is this really you?"
"Yes, it's me." Xing Jianan's throat felt incredibly sore as she said this.
"That's good. Oh, by the way, she also left a letter, which looks like it was for you too. You can keep an eye on it for now. I'm going inside to get busy."
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Jiang."
Uncle Jiang went into the backyard, leaving Xing Jianan alone outside looking at the photos and envelopes.
The photo definitely shows him and her. Xing Jianan remembers that day; they were holding hands under the sunlight, and she was smiling happily.
There are also words on the back of the photo.
[Taken on June 8, 2017 at our alma mater, we graduated!!!]
This is what she wrote.
I won't say who's laughing like a fool.
This sentence was written by Xing Jianan, who still remembers how he wrote it down word by word.
Saying one thing and meaning another.
He himself was laughing like a fool.
He suddenly realized that he could only laugh so heartily when he was with her.
This photo is exactly the same as the one Wen Xinran tore up back then.
Xing Jianan recalled that they each kept one as a souvenir, but unexpectedly, their own copy was lost, and they found another one in this place.
Fate is truly a wondrous thing.
Xing Jianan's fingertips caressed the face of the person in the photo. It turned out that they had known each other for so many years.
After carefully putting the photos away, Xing Jianan mentally prepared himself before opening the letter.
Yes, Xing Jianan recognized her handwriting at just one glance.
[To Anan:]
Seeing these words is like seeing the person in person.
Of course, if you happen to walk into this store and see this letter.
I went to see the sunrise; it was beautiful. It's a pity I couldn't go with you.
It's okay, just remember to watch my sunset too.
Cangqiong Mountain is beautiful. I really want to see it with you if I have the chance.
Uncle Jiang is a really nice person. I learn very quickly. He even said he wanted to take me on as his apprentice, but I didn't agree.
I can't stay here forever, can I?
Oh, by the way, I made you a ring. You didn't expect that, did you?
I actually made it for you first! I don't even know if you can see it.
I'm afraid that by the time you see it, the ring will be oxidized.
So don't keep my ring waiting too long.
Even if it's oxidized, don't complain about it. I've been working on it for a long time!
As I write this letter, I wonder if you will come looking for me if you see this.
Maybe yes, maybe no.
But what brought you into this store? Did you bring someone else with you?
I don't know either.
But why think so much?
Perhaps one day you will be confused, feel strange, and suddenly realize something?
Why is there something that is out of control?
Why did you hurt me? Why did we end up like this? Why was I so stubborn? Why did I ignore and not defend myself when others insulted me like that?
But these are all procedures I have to go through. Once she finishes what she needs to do in that world, I think she should come back then, right?
Then I should go to the next place.
Where to go? I don't know. I'll just drift around.
I don't know how to explain it to you, and I don't know if you would believe me.
Because of me,
It doesn't belong here at all.
I don't know if you really love me.
But I have to tell you in the end.
I love you.
I, who don't belong here, have fallen in love with you, who belong to this world.
But I don't regret it.
