After hanging up the phone, Du Yuanzhe felt lucky that he had escaped a disaster, thanks to Xia Ningmi's well-informed information.
After Xia Ningmi went to work, Du Yuanzhe was the only one left at home. He had nothing else to do, so he continued to study the script.
When it was time for dinner, Du Yuanzhe was too lazy to cook and just ordered some takeout. After dinner, he continued reading the script.
The character of Luo Xun is very complicated. Du Yuanzhe compared the script with the original novel, and gradually enriched the image of Luo Xun in his mind. The original author and screenwriter portrayed the character very well, and he did not want to be a drag.
After reading the script for the whole day, he was brought back to his senses by the pain in his neck. He looked at the phone next to him and found that it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
Du Yuanzhe closed the script, stood up and stretched his body, then called Xia Ningmo and said, "Thanks to President Xia, I was not beaten to death by my brother. I want to personally cook a table of dishes to thank President Xia. I wonder if President Xia will appreciate it?"
It is his principle to repay a favor.
On the other end of the phone, Xia Ningmi was silent for a while before saying, "I'll be home at six."
Du Yuanzhe asked again: "What does President Xia like to eat?"
"casual."
This is the end of this call.
Du Yuanzhe walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. There were a lot of ingredients in it, including various kinds of meat. It seemed that he didn't need to buy any more.
Du Yuanzhe stood in front of the refrigerator and thought for a while. After deciding what dish to make, he started to cook.
5:30 pm, Qianying Entertainment Top Floor
Cheng Yu was sorting out the minutes of the previous meeting. When she looked up, she saw Xia Ningmi coming out. She quickly stood up and said, "President."
Xia Ningmi said calmly, "Tell Lao Huang to wait for me downstairs. When the meeting minutes are sorted out, send them directly to my email."
"......yes."
Seeing Xia Ningmi walk into the elevator, Yueyue asked in surprise: "What is the president going to do?"
Cheng Yu suppressed his excitement and said, "The only time the president doesn't need us to follow him is when he goes home."
She knew that Xia Ningmi was not the only one living in Jincheng Jiayuan.
As expected, falling in love can change a person. She has been with Xia Ningmi for so long, but she has only seen her get off work on time a few times.
Jincheng Garden
Xia Ningmi opened the door and walked in, just in time to see Du Yuanzhe putting a plate of food on the table, still wearing a plaid apron.
Seeing her coming back, Du Yuanzhe smiled and said, "You've come just in time. Let's have dinner."
Xia Ning looked at the dining table for a moment longer, then went back to her room to change her clothes. When she came out, there were already three dishes, a soup, and two bowls of rice on the table.
Du Yuanzhe took off his apron and said, "Since there are only two of us, we didn't cook too many dishes. These are the ones I am good at."
After all, you are inviting people to dinner, so you will be more confident if you cook what you are good at.
The three dishes were sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy chicken and steamed fish. He didn't know Xia Ningmi's taste, so he could only take into account each flavor.
Xia Ningmi pulled out a chair and sat down, then took the first step to pick up a piece of pork ribs and tasted it.
Du Yuanzhe asked with a hint of anticipation: "How does it taste?"
Xia Ningmi tasted the steamed fish again and asked, "Were you a chef before?"
Du Yuanzhe could of course hear the implicit compliment, and the smile on his face deepened. He said, "Cooking is just a hobby. I live alone and have nothing else to do except filming."
Xia Ning suddenly realized: "You are also an actor? No wonder you took the initiative to audition."
Du Yuanzhe nodded: "I love acting. It's more than just a job for me."
The two chatted casually in a harmonious atmosphere. Du Yuanzhe discovered that although Xia Ningmi was indifferent and expressionless, she was not particularly taciturn and would basically respond.
After the meal, Xia Ningmi ate the sweet and sour spare ribs the most. As for the spicy chicken, she didn't touch it at all.
There was a dishwasher in the kitchen, and Du Yuanzhe put the dishes into the dishwasher and left them there.
When he came out after washing his hands, he saw Xia Ningmi sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, which was broadcasting financial news.
With the popularization of electronic products such as mobile phones, Du Yuanzhe has not watched TV for a long time, let alone reading boring things like financial news.
Having just finished his meal, it was too early to go back to his room. Du Yuanzhe sat on the other side of the living room, silently opening his phone to check Weibo.
Just as Liu Xu thought, last night's charity gala was indeed reported by a lot of media, and photos of various celebrities walking the red carpet were reposted crazily.
In addition to celebrity news, many people were curious about the two entertainment moguls, Xia Ningmi and Jiang Chelin. However, photography was not allowed inside the party, and they did not enter and exit through ordinary passages, so the media failed to take photos of the two, which disappointed many netizens.
Du Yuanzhe remembered that he did not enter the inner field through the ordinary passage. Liu Xu was still expecting him to be noticed by the media, but it seemed that he would be disappointed.
Du Yuanzhe searched his own name and found that no one on Weibo mentioned the charity gala. No one knew that he had attended the charity gala.
After all, it's because he's not famous enough and not many people pay attention to him. There were so many people at the charity gala, if he was more famous, there would be news about him.
He is not someone like Jiang Chelin who would contact the media to block the news at any time.
After leaving the square, Du Yuanzhe opened the trending search again and saw that the popularity of an entry was rising rapidly.
#Internationally renowned painter Wang Xianxuan will return to China to hold an exhibition#
Du Yuanzhe's eyes fixed on it and he immediately clicked on it to check. He found that this was just a message from a marketing account with an undetermined time. There was also a photo of Wang Linxuan under the Weibo post. The woman in the photo had an elegant temperament and her looks were not inferior to those of female stars in the entertainment industry.
Looking at the comments below, it turned out that many netizens were paying attention to Wang Lianxuan's appearance, and many people were also collecting information about her. Soon, many netizens knew that Wang Lianxuan was a talented painter with outstanding temperament.
Du Yuanzhe continued to look through and saw several comments that mentioned Jiang Chelin and Wang Linxuan's past relationship. These comments were not very prominent at the moment, but he believed that this comment would soon be pushed up by the navy.
Wang Lianxuan is already building momentum, which means she will be returning to China soon.
It seems that the biggest conflict between the hero and heroine is about to occur. According to the plot of the novel, this conflict almost caused the breakup of the relationship between the hero and heroine. Thanks to the hero realizing that he now likes the heroine and trying his best to win her back, the ending is happy.
Of course, the scene in which the hero almost died trying to save the heroine is indispensable, otherwise the heroine would not have forgiven him so easily.
Although this plot is cliché, it is indeed heart-wrenching that someone is willing to die for you. In addition, the heroine already likes the hero, which makes the impact even greater.
However, Du Yuanzhe was not interested in their love affairs. He just hoped that he would be required to appear less frequently so as not to interfere with his filming.
Du Yuanzhe was immersed in his own emotions and did not notice that Xia Ningmi, who was watching TV next to him, was also distracted.
[When Bai Yueguang returns to China, the relationship between the male and female protagonists will become more rigid, but this is all a routine, and in the end they still have a perfect ending]
[After thinking about it, I am the most pitiful one. They can do whatever they want, but I, a time traveler, have to maintain the development of the plot. I am the one who suffers the most.]
[Why not get rid of Wang Yanxuan in advance? Without her causing trouble, the hero and heroine can be together happily, and I don't have to worry about being suddenly pulled in to be a tool]
[That’s not right. There’s also Xia Ningmi. According to the novel’s setting, she’s a vicious female supporting character. Who knows if she’ll suddenly jump out and cause trouble?]
[It still seems wrong. The way Xia Ningmi confronted the male lead last night didn’t seem like she liked him. It doesn’t match the description in the novel.]
[Oh my god, the more I think about it, the more I feel like the plot is a bit broken]
Xia Ningmi heard Du Yuanzhe's voice becoming increasingly broken, but that was not the point. She also got a lot of information.
It turned out that living with Du Yuanzhe was the right thing to do. Only by staying with him could she get more information.
But what about the vicious female supporting role?
Who wrote this crappy novel? How does she look like a vicious female supporting character?
She even said that she liked Jiang Chelin. That was sheer nonsense. No matter how blind she was, she couldn't possibly like someone who was as arrogant as a rooster every day.
Xia Ning frowned, forcing herself to ignore the settings that made her unhappy, and summed up the information she had obtained.
She has now decided who the male and female protagonists will be, and she also knows that Wang Lianxuan will be the focus next. As long as she sends someone to keep a close eye on Wang Lianxuan, she can control the development of the plot.
She doesn't mind the love triangle between them, but she has to make sure their conflicts don't affect her.
As the president of an entertainment company, she is very familiar with the routines of some TV dramas. No matter what type of TV drama it is, the ending of the vicious female supporting role will not be good. At the very least, she will lose everything she has, and at the worst, she will die.
Thinking of Du Yuanzhe's cautious look at the beginning, Xia Ning felt that she would probably end up in one of the two situations.
But so what!
She has never believed in fate, not to mention that she is now prepared and has the confidence to change her future.
......
the next day
It was already nine o'clock when Du Yuanzhe got up, and Xia Ningmi had already gone to work.
He was not the kind of person who went to bed early and got up early. He had thought that it would be bad to sleep in on the first day of living together. However, this idea was shattered after only one day. Compared to those unnecessary things, he would rather sleep a little longer.
After getting up and drinking a glass of milk for breakfast, Du Yuanzhe continued to study the script.
Gradually, half a month passed, it was August, the weather was hotter, and Du Yuanzhe became a homebody, staying at home as little as possible.
In the past half month, Du Yuanzhe and Xia Ningmi have met very few times, after all, their schedules are completely different.
Xia Ningmi had already gone to work before Du Yuanzhe got up. In the evening, Xia Ningmi would work overtime until very late before coming back. By then, Du Yuanzhe had already finished his shower and was lying on the bed playing with his mobile phone.
The day when Du Yuanzhe cooked dinner was the day the two of them talked the most. Since then, Du Yuanzhe has cooked a few times, but Xia Ningmi never came back to eat. She basically ate at the company.
