It's a rare occasion for them to meet, but Mu Siran just happened to mention Hua Meimei.
Luo Jiuyu's mood was a little complicated: "She won't mind."
The carefree Hua Meimei probably had no improper thoughts about him. Except for that time when she forcefully kissed him while drunk… that was mainly the alcohol's fault, and he was a man of great integrity who forgave the little guy's mistakes.
"You seem to mind Blossomberry?"
Compared to Hua Meimei's indifferent attitude, Luo Jiuyu felt that Mu Siran seemed to mind Hua Meimei's existence more.
Mu Siran hurriedly explained: "I didn't..."
"Hello, the seafood porridge is here."
The waiter brought a bowl of seafood porridge. Luo Jiuyu indicated that ladies should be given priority and placed it in front of Mu Siran first.
Then, the waiter brought the second serving of seafood porridge.
Only after the waiter left did Mu Siran dare to take off his mask.
It turned out that she didn't take off her mask to prevent the waiter from recognizing her.
He smiled. "How does it feel to be a celebrity?"
"It's nice to be admired by everyone, but it's also true that I don't have the freedom to go anywhere. You can see it all. I have to be secretive even when having dinner with friends."
Mu Siran grabbed the spoon and slowly stirred the porridge. It was too hot.
"I particularly like the porridge in this restaurant. I used to come here often with my classmates, but after it became famous, I don't have time to come anymore," she added.
It's not just because I don't have time.
After becoming famous, she is recognized everywhere and has been offered many acting roles. In her spare time, she usually rests at home or travels abroad.
"I remember this store. It's been there since I was in high school." He had an impression.
This shop is called Sanmei Congee Shop, a time-honored porridge shop in Tiancheng. The owner is a woman in her forties, the third child in her family, and people call her Sanmei.
After so many years, the store has been renovated and a beautiful and elegant plaque has been made on the doorplate.
But the porridge still tastes familiar to me. The things they sell are more varied than before.
"Would you like some pickles?" She was adding shredded pickled mustard greens to her seafood porridge.
He shook his head, "No."
There was a message on his phone, so he picked it up and took a look.
It turned out to be a WeChat message from Hua Meimei.
[I forgive you (right humming)] The text is accompanied by a right humming expression.
The reason why he apologized to her before leaving was because he swore not to talk to her tomorrow, otherwise he would be a dog.
After apologizing, I felt uncomfortable again.
There are not many people who can make him bow his head, and Hua Meimei is one of them.
She would just let it go in one ear and out the other, and not say anything, so as not to embarrass him.
After a while, I suddenly sent him a message saying that I proudly accepted his apology, but he blushed instead.
"What's wrong?" Mu Siran asked with concern when he saw his expression suddenly change.
"Nothing." He put down his phone and ate his porridge.
"This beef pie is pretty good, try it." Mu Siran picked up a piece, tasted two bites, and then put it aside.
He wondered, "If it tastes good, why don't you eat more?"
She finished filming the commercial so late, she must be starving.
"You forgot, I'm a female star and I have to maintain my figure. I dare not eat too much." Mu Siran smiled, covering her mouth.
I went out to have supper with him tonight, which was the first time ever, because I wanted to meet him.
"Everything I do is restricted. Being a female celebrity is tough."
"Don't talk about me. Tell me about yourself. How have you been doing these years since leaving the Luo family? What have you been busy with recently?"
Luo Jiuyu took a sip of porridge and looked up at Mu Siran. Under the light, her eyebrows and eyes were as delicate as a painting, but fatigue was also quietly hidden in her eyes.
"My life is dull and boring..." He paused, "I work in an office building, from nine to six, and occasionally work overtime."
This is true, but he is a boss in a high position, not an employee.
All the socializing was left to Amo, who was primarily responsible for technical and financial management, as well as company-level decision-making.
"Oh...that's good too." Mu Siran seemed dissatisfied with the answer and lowered his eyes silently.
He thought it was because she noticed that he was not being honest enough.
"Have you taken on any new roles recently?" he asked softly, trying to break the slightly awkward atmosphere.
Mu Siran nodded and said, "I will join the group tomorrow."
"What play?" It turns out she is so busy.
"It's an ancient costume drama about an emperor, and I play the queen." She drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and put the spoon down again.
Then, take the wipes and wipe the corners of your mouth.
He frowned, "Why don't you eat?"
"Eating too much late-night snack will make you fat. I can't eat too many carbohydrates."
Although I know that female celebrities can go a whole day without eating any carbohydrates to maintain their figure, after actually experiencing it, I feel that such restraint is somewhat cruel to the human body.
"Life would be much less fun if we couldn't even eat what we wanted." He looked at her with only heartache in his eyes.
"Yeah." She propped up her cheek with one hand and her eyes began to wander wantonly on his face.
"Xiaojiu, you've been handsome since you were a child. After not seeing you for so many years, you look even more manly. There must be a lot of girls who like you, right?"
His appearance is his least noteworthy quality. He never uses his looks as an asset to attract girls.
He didn't say anything, but just looked at her quietly, with something different in his eyes.
"You said you and your wife have no feelings for each other and want a divorce next year. Oh no, I should say this year. But how can she control herself and not fall in love with you?" She smiled and shook her head. "It's very difficult for an ordinary woman to do this."
"You don't know Blossomberry. She's not an ordinary woman," he said.
