Chapter 52 The Morning Star is Protecting Us
He curved his lips into a smile, then his playful expression vanished, replaced by a serious tone: "I took the wrong one. Just make do with it."
Jiang Luo's gaze shifted downwards, landing on the cylindrical object in He Ziyan's hand.
Perhaps feeling guilty, she hid her slender hand in the corner.
This attempt to hide is too obvious!
Jiang Luo opened her palm. "Since yours isn't open, just hand it over." She added, "You're the one who should be drinking orange juice."
kid.
A smile curved his lips, and He Ziyan shrugged, softly saying, "Okay."
After taking Jiang Luo's orange juice with his free hand, He Ziyan placed it in her palm.
Jiang Luo looked smug, but upon closer inspection, she froze.
Ah... this bright yellow jar.
This is also a can of orange juice!
What's there to hide?
Oops... I think I've been tricked.
She glared fiercely at He Ziyan.
He Ziyan looked completely innocent.
Because of his innocent, puppy-like face, his portrayal of innocence was impeccable, comparable to that of an award-winning actor.
He leaned in an inch closer, spoke, his voice lower, a hint of allure in its cool tone, "I didn't expect... you to be so aggressive."
The pronunciation was tinged with an indescribable ambiguity, subtly penetrating the heart.
The originally cool night breeze suddenly became warmer.
With a sudden buzzing in her mind, Jiang Luo's face flushed red, and goosebumps rose on her arms.
Flirting... what flirting about!
On the other side, Xi He stopped abruptly.
What did he hear?
Is this something he can listen to without paying?
The hand that was about to hand snacks to He Ziyan froze in mid-air.
His expression was varied and ever-changing.
So this is what you're like, Mr. He.
Silently shifting two inches to the side, Xi He turned and stuffed the snacks into Qin Ning's arms, saying, "Eat more."
Qin Ning, bewildered and clueless, thanked them repeatedly: "Ah, since coming here, I feel like I've become the group's darling! I love you all so much!"
Xi He: "..."
"The blanket is here!" Shi Yan and Tao Le returned.
Thank you.
"Thanks."
...
After receiving the blanket, Jiang Luo immediately wrapped herself up from the front and huddled under its cover.
She looks like a female warrior clad in armor.
Ah...it's so warm.
Given that He Ziyan had teased her again and again, she didn't want to pay attention to him and just looked up at the sky silently.
She didn't know how long it had been since she had looked at the stars so peacefully.
When she was able to get acting roles in the past, filming took up most of her time.
When I got home, I just drew the curtains, played games, and went to sleep.
It's been too long since I've properly looked up and gazed at the sky.
The sky is still as beautiful as ever.
Just like when she was a child.
Tao Le suddenly said, "Of all the stars, I like Sirius the most!"
Qin Ning asked, "Why?"
"I know, is it because Sirius is very bright and dazzling?" Shi Yan guessed.
Xi He asked calmly, "Is it because of Sirius Black from Harry Potter?"
"Huh? Are you telling a lame joke?" Qin Ning exclaimed dramatically.
The person involved, however, was like a cat that had been electrocuted, speechless with astonishment, "Yes! How did you know?"
Sirius, a star.
Sirius Black, Harry Potter's godfather.
this……
"Huh?!" Qin Ning and Shi Yan exclaimed in unison.
Xi He calmly replied, "Because your suitcase is covered in Harry Potter stickers, and your apron is also Harry Potter themed. I think you must be a huge Harry Potter fan. And since you mentioned Sirius, I'll just take that guess."
Qin Ning gave a thumbs up: "You're amazing."
When the topic turned to stars, Jiang Luo also had something to say.
"I love the morning star the most." Gazing at the vast sky, her eyes and brows were bathed in the bright silver light, like a little elf descended to earth.
Her favorite star is the morning star.
Because she possesses one.
He Ziyan also looked up and gazed at the vast starry sky with her.
The corner was narrow, with only an inch between shoulders, a close-knit space that resonated with the heart.
It's wonderful to be in the same time and space as Luo Luo.
The idle chatter was aimless, yet seemed to have no end.
Unbeknownst to them, they had exceeded the timeframe for the smoke-spraying plan, but no one mentioned it.
As they chatted, they eventually came to talk about their first impressions of each other.
This seems to be a topic that every new acquaintance will inevitably discuss.
"When I first met Ziyan, I thought, wow, this person is so good-looking, he should be an idol! His face is practically made for idols!" Qin Ning said. "But after talking to him for a couple of minutes, I felt that he was too cold, like he carried an ice cave with him. A cold and aloof god, never smiling."
He took a sip of white peach-flavored fruit wine and continued, "However, after spending these two days together, especially today, I've discovered that Ziyan is actually quite kind. He treated us to a supermarket this morning, a big meal at noon, and even gave us flowers tonight. He's a really good person!"
"I heard that if someone falls in love, no matter how aloof they were before, they will become gentle. Tsk tsk, did President He fall in love after coming here?" Shi Yan teased.
This is clearly a joke.
Qin Ning let out a meaningful laugh.
He exchanged a glance with Shi Yan.
Like-minded people, let's enjoy the sweet moments together!
Shi Yan then offered another way out: "Just kidding. Don't take it seriously."
Throughout the entire process, He Ziyan did not deny anything; he simply smiled and remained silent, letting Shi Yan speak as she pleased.
We chatted and laughed, and time flew by.
It was already 1 a.m. when the event ended.
The night was enchanting, and everyone poured out their hearts to each other, finding endless enjoyment in the experience.
"good evening."
Get some rest.
"See you tomorrow."
...
After walking a few steps, the people living on the second floor all "arrived at their stop".
The two people who lived on the first floor went downstairs together.
Upon arriving at the room, Jiang Luo grasped the doorknob, about to go in, when she suddenly stopped.
I want to say goodnight to He Ziyan.
As she turned around, she heard a whisper, "The morning star is watching over you; sweet dreams."
The man didn't stop; he walked past her, waving his hand with his back to her.
What's with the cool act?
Jiang Luo smiled, opened the door, and went into the room.
Wash up, lie down in bed, turn off the lights, and go to sleep.
Jiang Luo let out a long yawn and then closed her eyes tightly.
Goodnight, little house.
Goodnight, morning star.
-
The consequence of staying up late is that you can't get out of bed.
Jiang Luo tried to get up many times, but was repeatedly defeated by sleepiness.
When she finally opened her eyes, it was already 9:30.
She dragged her weary body, washed up, and left the room.
"Luo Luo, come and have breakfast!" Shi Yan waved to her from the dining table, full of energy.
Jiang Luo walked over and asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to work today?" Then, remembering what Shi Yan had said last night, she added, "Oh right, you started your annual leave yesterday afternoon, right?"
“Yes! I’m a special assistant. I’m usually very busy. When the boss is at work, I’m at work. When the boss is on vacation, I have to be on call at any time. The boss saw that I was working two jobs a day and said that I was working too hard, so he gave me ten days off so that I could do this job properly. Ah…” Shi Yan held a sandwich and looked up. “I’m really a role model for modern working people. I’m taking a vacation to do a second job.”
Jiang Luo laughed.
She admires Shi Yan's optimistic and positive attitude towards life.
Never tired.
"Ding—" The microwave oven beeps.
Shi Yan got up, took out a plate of sandwiches and a fork, and handed them to Jiang Luo.
