Chapter 1616 This Life
The evening passed in silence.
After dinner, Shen Pianxian went to analyze the script and memorize the lines.
Because time was too tight, she still had a lot to do, and after Mr. Cheng cleaned up the kitchen, he went into the study to work.
It was not until after twelve o'clock and when it was pitch dark that Cheng Zhiyuan glanced at his watch, took off his glasses, turned his neck and leaned back in the leather chair.
He stared at the girl with a sunny smile in the photo frame on the desktop. After a long while, he sighed, stood up and walked towards Shen Pianpian's bedroom.
The door was half-open, and warm yellow light shone from inside.
He pushed the door open and took a look inside. The girl, whom he thought was still awake, was lying on the furry carpet with her legs spread out, a blanket draped over her stomach, and a messy script and a pen that had rolled away at her sides.
She was sleeping very soundly, even snoring quietly, and seemed really tired.
Cheng Zhiyuan pursed his lips and walked in with a stern face. His footsteps were silent until he got closer. He bent down and picked up the script next to the girl. There were dense notes between the lines, all of which contained her own analysis.
Cheng Zhiyuan took a quick look and found that in many places, even the character's psychological activities took up a whole page, and some parts had obviously been revised many times, which must be the result of indecisive consideration.
She works really seriously and hard.
Cheng Zhiyuan couldn't help but look down, and at that glance he saw a bit of shiny saliva about to overflow from the girl's mouth.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, but he quickly tightened his lips.
He half-knelt and picked up the girl with big movements, but she didn't wake up. She just hummed and moved deeper into his arms.
Cheng Zhiyuan carried her to the bed and put her down. She rolled into the quilt very consciously, revealing only half of her face. Her eyelashes were very long, and there was a small shadow under her eyes, making her look very soft.
Not knowing what she dreamed about, Shen Pianxian smacked her lips, frowned and said unhappily,
"You're not allowed to go."
She hummed and mumbled,
"You can only take me to play."
Cheng Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment and looked down at her, but the girl just frowned and stopped talking in her sleep.
He looked at the slight frown between her brows, which represented a sign of unhappiness, and his heart, which had been trying hard to remain calm, finally softened completely.
Sighing softly, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, whispering,
"I'll only play with you, no one else, for the rest of my life."
"But when can you play with me?"
Cheng Zhiyuan reached out and gently touched her black hair, and asked softly,
"When can we be together every day without being apart for even a single day?"
Of course Shen Pianpian couldn't hear what he said, and her frown was gently smoothed by the man's warm fingertips.
The cold wind outside the window was probably biting, but through the glass, the darkness of the winter night seemed quiet and gentle.

The next day there was nothing unusual.
All the unpleasantness from last night seemed to have disappeared.
Cheng Zhiyuan still prepared a scarf, hat and mask for her, poured her milk during breakfast, and reminded her not to catch a cold in the studio.
The attitude was so normal and nice that Shen Pianpian felt a little embarrassed.
She agreed to all of Mr. Cheng's requests very obediently, and ate up the toast and eggs that Mr. Cheng prepared for her. Then she waved goodbye and walked out under the focused gaze behind her.
I feel a little strange, a little embarrassed and a little soft.
She kept giggling for a long time in the car, and only became serious when they got to the studio.
