When the alarm rang the next morning, Ye Fei was still sleeping.
Although he went to bed early last night, he slept very late. After hearing the noise, I reached out my hand from under the quilt in a daze to turn it off, but I pressed the screen for a long time but couldn't get it right.
Ye Fei was a little grumpy after waking up, and frowned in annoyance. Just as he was about to make another effort, something warm touched the back of his hand. The next second, the annoying ringing sound completely disappeared.
Ye Fei's brows gradually relaxed and he wanted to continue sleeping, but he felt something was wrong.
My waist felt heavy and my back was hot, as if I was leaning against a fireplace.
What's going on?
He turned over with great effort and fumbled around with his eyes closed.
The warm and firm feel, slightly hard, a bit like... Ye Fei opened his eyes.
Yan Xiao was lying on his side next to him in his dark blue pajamas, with the buttons neatly buttoned and the sleeves slightly rolled up. And her hand was resting on his well-defined forearm.
Yan Xiao's eyes were clear, as if he had been awake for a long time, but he did not stop Ye Fei's actions.
"You took the initiative." He reached out and touched Ye Fei's face, as if it was intimate, but also as a test.
Ye Fei's mind was still confused. He didn't react for a moment and just stood there in silence.
So, Yan Xiao seemed to be encouraged. His right hand slowly moved down, gently rubbing along the lines of Ye Fei's face.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became subtle.
Yan Xiao held Ye Fei's wrist with one hand and interlocked their fingers. He pressed Ye Fei's shoulders with his other hand and lifted his upper body slightly.
The not-so-strong wooden bed creaked under the weight, like a bolt of thunder, striking Ye Fei's heart hard.
Ye Fei shuddered and woke up completely.
He quickly pushed Yan Xiao away and stood up.
"I have something to do in the morning, so I'll get up and you can continue to sleep."
Yan Xiao didn't say anything. His breathing was slightly heavy, and his heavy gaze fell on Ye Fei like a shadow.
Ye Fei felt a tingling sensation on the back of her neck as he looked at her. She took two gulps of water before she managed to calm down. She said in a nonchalant manner, "Why, you've never seen the morning physiological phenomenon?"
He rummaged through the suitcase, took out two pieces of clean clothes and walked towards the bathroom. When he passed the bed, Yan Xiao suddenly called him.
"Ye Fei," he said, his voice a little hoarse, "Do you mind if I use the restroom first?"
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something. He glanced at Yan Xiao uncontrollably, and instantly turned his head away with a dry mouth: "As you wish."
By the time both of them had packed up, it was already past nine o'clock.
"Boss Ye, Boss Yan," the assistant director ran over happily when he saw them and said to Ye Fei, "I have collected all the requirements. Can I send them to you on WeChat?"
The assistant director is a foodie and cares more about this matter than selecting actors.
"Okay," Ye Fei took out his phone and chuckled, "You arrange a few people to pick up the goods. Wait for me to notify you of the departure time."
The assistant director agreed immediately: "Okay."
Ye Fei clicked on WeChat, looked at the long list of food, and smiled. As expected, these people didn't show any courtesy to Yan Xiao. They provided him with everything from food to drinks. This was a typical example of taking advantage of a wealthy man.
Fortunately, he left the contact information of the restaurant where I had ordered the food, so if we notify him immediately, it should be ready before noon. Otherwise, if you place the order once you get to town, you might have to wait until tomorrow.
Ye Fei avoided the crowd, called the store owner, and came back after arranging everything. She saw Yan Xiao standing outside the door with a suitcase bag.
"Leaving?"
Yan Xiao said "hmm" and told Ye Fei: "The flight is at 3pm, but it's too far from here to the airport, so we need to leave early."
Ye Fei nodded to show that she understood: "Have a safe trip. Let me know when you arrive in Feng City." After hesitating for a moment, she added, "You don't have to worry about me..."
He waved to the staff who passed by and greeted him, and smiled: "I'm the boss, how dare they treat me badly? See, they respect me."
Yan Xiao didn't say yes or no, he just looked at Ye Fei quietly, as if he wanted to take back all those days. After a long while, he asked, "When will you be back?"
"Let's talk about it later," Ye Fei didn't give him a precise answer, and said vaguely, "I still want to play here for a few more days, otherwise it would be a waste of time."
Yan Xiao's phone lit up, and Ye Fei glanced at it casually and happened to see the content on the screen. It was the driver's message, telling Yan Xiao that he had arrived.
"Let's go," Ye Fei felt a little uncomfortable, but still had a nonchalant smile on her face, "I'll take you out."
The two walked out in silence. When they were about to leave the filming base, Yan Xiao suddenly stopped and called Ye Fei's name.
"Ye Fei," he said, "can you tell me when you come back?"
Ye Fei raised her eyes and met Yan Xiao's gaze.
Yan Xiao looked at him with the same tolerance and focus as always. It seemed that no matter how many times Ye Fei rejected him, he would never change.
Ye Fei suddenly didn't know what to do.
All along, he had been desperately pulling at the line between the two of them, trying to keep Yan Xiao away from him, but it was in vain. Every time Ye Fei took a step back, Yan Xiao took two steps forward, but in the end it was all in vain.
The wind blew, and tiny grains of sand hit Yan Xiao's well-made suit, making a slight noise.
He should have stayed in a clean and bright office, but now he has run to the mountains and valleys to deal with the wind and sand for his own sake.
Ye Fei closed her eyes and said, "Okay."
For the first time in his life, the idea of handing the thread to Yan Xiao came to his mind. It was up to him whether to advance or retreat, and Ye Fei accepted it all unconditionally.
Think again, let him think again.
Yan Xiao was very satisfied after getting a positive answer and did not make any more requests to Ye Fei. After getting into the car, he watched Ye Fei's figure go away before telling the driver to drive.
Although he had only been out for two days, he had a lot of work to do. Yan Xiao unlocked his phone and checked the messages he had received while it was on silent mode, and then he found that Cheng Minghao had called him a total of fifteen times.
Just as I was about to call back, Cheng Minghao called.
Yan Xiao clicked to accept.
"You finally answered." Cheng Minghao breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone.
Yan Xiao asked him: "What's the matter?"
"It's a big deal," Cheng Minghao crossed his legs, deliberately teasing Yan Xiao's appetite, "If you promise to give me double the year-end bonus this year, I will tell you."
"Cheng Minghao," Yan Xiao called his name and said in a calm tone, "The amount of the year-end bonus depends on your contribution."
Cheng Minghao didn't feel guilty at all. He snorted and laughed and said, "Don't even mention double. I can even take ten times."
Yan Xiao waited quietly for his next words.
"I'll send you a video of the parking lot," Cheng Minghao reduced the call, clicked into WeChat, and sent the video to Yan Xiao. "You'll know when you see it. Remember to give me a big gift. I won't do it without one."
She complained again, "I used to think you were miserable, but now I realize I'm the worst. I'm single but I'm worried about married people. I'm probably the only one in the world like that."
Yan Xiao didn't understand what he was up to, so he simply hung up the phone and clicked on the new message.
Then, Yan Xiao saw the most unforgettable scene in his life.
In the parking lot of Feixiao Technology, Ye Fei stood leaning against a pillar, looking towards the entrance, as if waiting for something. A few minutes later, his car drove in.
Because he was facing away from the surveillance camera, Yan Xiao couldn't see the expression on Ye Fei's face. But he could see that Ye Fei's eyes were following him. From getting off the car to entering the elevator, he never left.
The time in the upper right corner shows the day when the accident happened.
——
If he really cared about you, he would come in person instead of just calling.
Cheng Minghao's words kept echoing in his mind. Yan Xiao held his phone tightly and watched the surveillance video over and over again.
It was not an illusion or imagination, Ye Fei really was here.
"Turn around," Yan Xiao raised his eyes and ordered the driver, "Go back."
The driver thought he had misheard and did not react.
Yan Xiao looked at the driver in the rearview mirror: "Any questions?"
"Oh, okay." The driver came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream and started to turn.
At the filming base of "Time and Space Rescue", after Yan Xiao left, Ye Fei lost interest in doing anything. After sending the meal pick-up time to the assistant director, she sat on the bed in a daze.
I don’t know where Yan Xiao is, and whether the plane will be delayed... He is already busy, and if it is really delayed, won’t it delay things?
Ye Fei rubbed his forehead to stop himself from thinking about it anymore. I took out my phone and was about to search for a silly video when I heard a knock on the door.
He thought it was the crew who wanted to talk to him about something, so he didn't pay much attention to it. He walked over and opened the door while checking his phone: "What's up - Yan Xiao?"
Just like he suddenly appeared the day before, Yan Xiao was standing outside the door, looking at him quietly.
Ye Fei calmed down the turbulent emotions in her heart, tried to mobilize her few rational thoughts, and asked him: "Did you leave something behind?"
Yan Xiao didn't say anything. He took a step forward and reached out to gently stroke Ye Fei's cheek.
"you……"
"Ye Fei," Yan Xiao interrupted him and said, "I saw the parking lot surveillance."
Ye Fei was stunned and didn't understand: "What?"
"On the day I had the accident," Yan Xiao stared into Ye Fei's eyes and asked him, "Why did you come?"
Ye Fei was silent.
Yan Xiao has always been indulgent towards Ye Fei, but this time, he did not tolerate Ye Fei's silence.
"Why did you come?" Yan Xiao asked again.
Ye Fei broke free from Yan Xiao's hand and took out cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket.
Yan Xiao noticed that the lighter was brought back from Jiangcheng by himself.
Ye Fei bit the cigarette holder lightly, lowered her eyes and lit the cigarette. From Yan Xiao's perspective, he could see his thick eyelashes and high nose bridge.
The rising white smoke circles hovered around his face, making it impossible for Yan Xiao to discern his expression.
So Yan Xiao held Ye Fei's shoulder and reached out to take his cigarette.
"How harsh," Ye Fei chuckled, leaning against the wall and staring out the window. After a while, he said, "Don't you know why I came here?"
Yan Xiao said: "I don't know."
"Yan Xiao," Ye Fei looked at him, as if she had unloaded a heavy burden, and as if she had abandoned everything, "I don't want to be with you, not because I don't like you, but because I have a genetic disease."
