Chapter 169: Rain falls in the old hometown, and the grass and trees are lush
. "Click."
With the crisp sound of a switch, the room was instantly bright.
Meng Bai stood at the door and looked around the furnishings of the small house, and a familiar feeling arose spontaneously.
The pillows on the small sofa, the green plants on the windowsill, the express boxes piled in the corner... almost nothing has changed since he left.
"Go in." Song Zhi pushed him from behind, closed the apartment door, and took out a pair of slippers one size larger from the shoe cabinet beside him: "Wear these."
Meng Bai looked down at the slippers whose color and pattern were somewhat familiar: "Is this what I left when I left?"
"It seems so, I also found it when I was cleaning the house a few days ago." Song Zhi pretended to be casual.
In fact, she bought the slippers specially a few days ago, just waiting to use them at this time.
After changing her shoes and entering the house, Song Zhi tried to keep a calm tone: "I'll clean up first, you can sit anywhere. Anything you want to drink is in the refrigerator, and you are familiar with the seats."
After speaking, she seemed to have made up her mind and walked a few steps quickly into the bedroom.
Meng Bai sat on the sofa. The familiar environment activated the memories that had been stored in the corner of his mind.
Looking at the pillow with a white cat pattern next to him, he took it and held it with both hands, stroking it gently with his fingers.
The pillows were originally a pair, and the pattern on the other one was a black cat.
At that time, Meng Bai and Song Zhi often leaned on this sofa, each holding a pillow in their arms, watching TV series and movies together.
After watching, Meng Bai began to complain about how bad the plot and the screenwriter were, while Song Zhi tilted his head and listened to his bragging quietly.
"Hehe."
Meng Bai smiled and shook his head, thinking about how stupid he was when he was young!
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard the sound of heels stepping on the floor behind him. Then, he heard Song Zhi's soft voice: "Huh? What are you doing sitting there?"
Meng Bai turned around and looked at Song Zhi who had just walked out of the bedroom, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
The woman's shoulder-length hair was now tied up behind her head, revealing her jade-white neck. She was wearing a plain white slim-fitting cheongsam, outlining her slightly raised breasts and slender waist.
The slits at the bottom of her dress extended from the ankles to the upper knees, revealing her slender and slightly fleshy calves. She wore a pair of pink and white sling high heels on her feet, and her cute round toes were curled up tightly, revealing the nervousness and panic of her owner.
Seeing Meng Bai's eyes fixed on him, Song Zhi pursed his lips and couldn't help feeling proud.
Humph, when I went to audition for "The Pretender", I found that this guy seemed to like the way I looked in cheongsam, so I specially prepared this outfit.
Now it seems that my preparations were not in vain.
Song Zhi twisted her waist and walked to Meng Bai's side. She casually smoothed the strands of hair on her forehead and looked at him and said, "Why didn't you pour some water?"
"Oh." Meng Bai closed his eyelids and said calmly, "I didn't find the cup."
Song Zhi believed it and turned to the cabinet in the small restaurant next to her: "Cup, I remember it seems to be here...ah!"
Before she bent down to take it, she suddenly felt someone leaning over from behind and holding her waist.
Smelling the familiar breath, she couldn't help but look happy, but still symbolically struggled twice: "You, what are you doing?"
It was said to be struggling, but the strength was so small that it was almost negligible.
Meng Bai didn't say anything, raised his hand to pull the thin shoulders and turned the woman around.
At this time, any words were superfluous. Meng Bai lowered his head and kissed her without hesitation.
"Well-"
Song Zhi snorted softly, and reached out to hug Meng Bai's neck and slowly closed his eyes.
It started raining outside the window at some point, and the water drops falling from the sky hit the window with a crackling sound.
This seemed to be the first rain in Beijing this year, announcing the arrival of spring.
Meng Bai bent down and picked up Song Zhi horizontally.
"Wait, clothes..."
"That's it, the cheongsam is what I want."
(400 words deleted) -
The next day.
The sun shone on his face through the gap in the curtains, and Song Zhi slowly woke up.
He subconsciously glanced at his side and found that there was no one. What happened last night was like a dream.
However, the aches all over her body reminded her that it was not a dream, but reality.
The bedroom door was closed, and the faint voices coming from the living room indicated the whereabouts of the person next to her.
She found her cell phone at the bedside and looked at the time. It was already past two in the afternoon.
She had actually slept for most of the day!
Song Zhi lifted the quilt and sat up with gritted teeth. As soon as her feet touched the ground, before she could stand up, she felt her legs soften and sat back down again.
"Hmm!"
Song Zhi groaned and couldn't help frowning.
That bastard, I don't know where he got such good physical strength, he is much better than before.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but blushing.
In fact, she was not much better than him last night, but later she couldn't keep up with the physical strength, so she fell behind.
After all, she had endured for so long since they broke up, it was inevitable that she was a little greedy.
After sitting by the bed for a while, feeling that her body had recovered a little strength, Song Zhi slowly stood up.
She picked up a random piece of clothing from the cabinet nearby and put it on. As for the cheongsam that she bought last night, it was now tattered and in a pile in the corner under the bed.
Walking into the bathroom, Song Zhi looked at herself in the mirror. From her chest to her collarbone to her neck, all kinds of marks showed the intensity of the battle last night.
After a quick wash and tidying up, she opened the bedroom door. Meng Bai was sitting on the sofa, talking on the phone with someone.
"...No, you also know that the drama "Forensic Qin Ming" is about to start filming... I'm so busy recently, I really can't get through it."
Meng Bai was halfway through speaking when he suddenly heard a slight noise behind him.
He turned his head and saw Song Zhi wearing a white off-shoulder shirt and standing barefoot at the door of the bedroom.
Meng Bai pointed to his mobile phone and silently said "wait a minute" with his lips.
Song Zhi nodded and made a gesture that he would be quiet.
Seeing that she was waiting there obediently, Meng Bai turned his attention back to his phone, while at the same time changing his tone of voice without making any expression.
"... Don't worry, I remember. I'll definitely tell you when I get to your place... Okay, someone wants to see me here, I'm busy now, I'll contact you later."
After hanging up the phone, Meng Bai smiled and looked at Song Zhi who was waiting on the side: "Are you awake so early? I thought you were going to sleep for a while."
"I was woken up by the sunlight." Song Zhi asked curiously: "Whose call is it?"
"Oh, Director Li Xue." Meng Bai said naturally, and deleted the call record marked with "Teacher Li". "He said the crew has wrapped up and asked if I wanted to go back and take a look."
Song Zhi didn't doubt it, walked over and sat in Meng Bai's arms, and said with some surprise: "It's over so soon, I thought it would take until the middle of the month."
"The fewer actors you play opposite, the more tacit the cooperation, so it will naturally be faster." Meng Bai said: "And counting from the start of filming, it has been two and a half months, and it's almost time to wrap up."
The filming of "The Pretender" can be said to be full of disasters. First, the actors were injured, and then they were replaced. The filming of the drama, which was originally planned to be completed in 50 days, unexpectedly took more than half a month longer.
Of course, compared with the previous "Nirvana in Fire" produced by Noon Sunshine, this time is nothing compared to the big one.
It has been a year since the filming of that drama was completed, and it has not been broadcast yet. However, Hou Hongliang said that it seems that Beijing North Satellite TV has recently expressed its intention to purchase the film. If it can be successful, combined with the previous Shanghai Satellite TV, the revenue can be almost recovered.
In comparison, spy war dramas will be easier to sell. Especially the final version of "The Pretender" has a strong cast of actors, and it is estimated that it will not be as long as "Nirvana in Fire".
However, this is all about Noon Sunshine. Although Arc Light is now one of the investors of this drama, it does not have any channels and connections on the TV station side.
I wonder if it can be connected with Mango TV after the variety show "Celebrity Detective" is launched.
Just as Song Zhi was thinking about this, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Knowing that she was not able to move easily, Meng Bai carried her to the sofa next to her and sat her down, and then took the phone over.
After the call was connected, the girl responded a few times, then her expression gradually became surprised, and finally she thanked him repeatedly before hanging up the phone.
"What are you so happy about?" Meng Bai asked casually when he saw her happy face.
"It's the crew of "Gardenia Blossoms" that I auditioned for yesterday. I thought there was no hope, but I didn't expect them to call and say that I was selected." Song Zhi said happily.
After that, she looked at Meng Bai and said, "Did you recommend it for me?"
