Chapter 366: Sit Until Dawn (Subscribe to support!)
…
After hearing Xu Kai's inexplicable words, Li Changyi said in a daze: "I told you not to go back after dinner, just to compensate me for celebrating my birthday, how can my birthday become my death anniversary?"
Only then did Xu Kai realize that he had dirty thoughts.
Xu Kai quickly pulled back the words without blushing or beating his heart, and said: "Sitting for a long time can lead to many diseases. In serious cases, it may even be fatal, so sitting for a long time is not good."
Li Changyi rolled his eyes at Xu Kai and said, "Sit is an adjective, not a verb. I just want you to stay with me after dinner and celebrate my birthday. I didn't ask you to sit with me the whole time. You can stand, lie down, or lie prone. Anyway, you can do whatever makes you comfortable. You don't have to sit the whole time."
Xu Kai heard this and said with a smile: "I misunderstood. Sorry. OK, no problem. I can stay and celebrate your birthday with you."
Then Xu Kai told Li Changyi about the interesting things that happened during his filming, and changed the topic without leaving any trace.
The two chatted and ate for a while, and Li Changyi suddenly realized what Xu Kai meant by those inexplicable words he had just said.
Li Changyi's face immediately turned red: "It turns out that he misunderstood me as the kind of woman who doesn't love herself!"
Li Changyi quickly lowered her head while eating.
But after eating for a while, Li Changyi couldn't help but secretly glance at Xu Kai who was still telling her interesting stories about filming, and thought to herself: "How could he miss me so much?" Then, no matter what Xu Kai said, she couldn't listen.
After a long time, Li Changyi suppressed the random thoughts in her mind and slowly shifted the topic of their conversation from the interesting things that happened during Xu Kai's filming to the starry sky.
What Xu Kaizhen didn't expect was that Li Changyi was also an astronomy enthusiast, and there would be a Leo meteor shower tonight.
According to Li Changyi, this is an astronomical wonder that only occurs once in a century and should not be missed.
The reason why Li Changyi asked Xu Kai to accompany her was mainly because she wanted Xu Kai to watch the meteor shower with her.
Li Changyi had actually planned this matter a long time ago. She had even prepared a place to watch the meteor shower.
This place is in the attic room on the top floor of her house.
The top of this attic room was transformed by Li Changyi into a glass roof with no blind spots.
There are also four of the world's most advanced astronomical telescopes and some other auxiliary equipment.
The most peculiar thing is that there is a big bed in the middle of the room, and you can see the beautiful starry sky when you lie on it.
To be honest, this is indeed an excellent place to watch astronomical wonders.
Xu Kai and Li Changyi sat on the bed and looked up at the starry sky. Xu Kai then realized how vast the universe was and how infinite time and space were. Compared with the endless universe, he was so insignificant, even though he had lived two lives.
Li Changyi said to Xu Kai: "After I fell in love with astronomy, I realized that everything in the world is just ants and dust. Life is only a hundred years. If I can't be with the person I love, what's the point?"
At this point, Li Changyi looked at Xu Kai: "I wanted to ask you this on my birthday, but I can't wait any longer. I like you, but have you ever liked me?"
Hearing Li Changyi's confession, Xu Kai was not surprised, but embarrassed! Xu Kai actually knew that Li Changyi liked him a long time ago, otherwise she would not look for him from time to time, would not be so nice to Dong Ni, Shi Jiahui, Shen Hehe and Si Peizhi, would not help him get a loan from her father Li Yonghong, would not help him contact Playboy's house, and would not bring him here to watch the stars with her and wait for her birthday.
But on the one hand, Xu Kai had too many women, and he really didn't want to add any more; on the other hand, Xu Kai had promised Li Yonghong not to take action against Li Changyi.
The last time Li Yonghong went to the United States to meet Xu Kai, he was talking to Xu Kai about his loan, but he was also trying to stop Xu Kai from being with Li Changyi.
Let me put it this way, first of all, Li Yonghong felt that Xu Kai was too promiscuous and his emotional history was too chaotic, and he didn't want his daughter to be with a man like Xu Kai.
Also, Li Yonghong has actually found a good guy for Li Changyi who is of equal status and willing to "marry into" their Li family.
So, what Li Yonghong meant was that he could lend money to Xu Kai, and Xu Kai could continue to be friends with Li Changyi, but Li Yonghong did not want Xu Kai to date Li Changyi.
Xu Kai had no shortage of women and didn't have many feelings for Li Changyi, so he readily agreed to Li Yonghong.
Xu Kai is a man who always keeps his promises and will not go back on his word easily.
Therefore, facing Li Changyi's confession, Xu Kai actually wanted to refuse.
However, who would have thought that as soon as Xu Kai said the word "I...", the surroundings suddenly shook.
"earthquake?"
Xu Kai realized what had happened and quickly pulled Li Changyi to turn off the power in the room immediately to prevent a fire. Then he hid in a corner that looked very sturdy.
As soon as the two of them hid in the corner, Xu Kai felt Li Changyi trembling all over.
Xu Kai hugged Li Changyi in his arms and said softly, "It's okay, I'm here."
"Hmm." Li Changyi subconsciously made a nasal sound, her pretty face leaning against Xu Kai's strong chest, her weak body also hugged by Xu Kai's strong arms. She immediately felt very safe, and the trembling of her body gradually disappeared.
Because Xu Kai turned off the power, Xu Kai and Li Changyi, who were in the corner, saw nothing but darkness in front of them.
In the darkness, Li Changyi said worriedly: "Brother Kai, what should we do? It seems to have stopped shaking. Should we escape?"
Xu Kai said calmly: "When encountering an earthquake, you must stay calm and don't run around in a crowd, because you can't outrun the earthquake at all."
Xu Kai calmly analyzed, "There has never been a major earthquake in Kyoto. This place is not in an earthquake-prone area, so you don't have to worry. I think the event just now was an aftershock of an earthquake somewhere."
In fact, Xu Kai was lying to Li Changyi.
——On July 28, the 18th year of Emperor Kangxi’s reign in the Qing Dynasty (September 2, 1679), an earthquake occurred in Sanhe and Pinggu. This was the largest earthquake in history near Kyoto, with an estimated magnitude of 8. The area of destruction was 500 kilometers long. The area near Kyoto suffered a very severe earthquake disaster, and the imperial palace was damaged in many places at that time. According to the "Annals of Sanhe County in the Qianlong Period", "The earthquake occurred at the time of Si, from the northwest to the southeast, like a small boat encountering wind and waves, people could not stand up, there were not many city walls and houses left, the ground cracked on all sides, black water gushed out, and it took more than a month to stop, and many people were crushed to death in the area. According to statistics, 2,677 people died in the earthquake in Sanhe County and more than 10,000 people died in Pinggu County. The damage and impact of this earthquake were very extensive, and within one month after the earthquake, there were more than 10 aftershocks.
Therefore, Xu Kai really didn’t know whether this was a small earthquake, a warning before a major earthquake, or the aftermath of a major earthquake that occurred somewhere.
Li Changyi hugged Xu Kai's waist and said, "Brother Kai, I'm so scared. Maybe what you said before is right. This day next year will be the anniversary of my death."
"It's okay, Xiaoyi." Xu Kai hugged Li Changyi a little tighter and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"
Xu Kai's responsible behavior immediately made Li Changyi's shyness, which she had suppressed with great difficulty, resurface.
Li Changyi suddenly thought: "It would be nice if I could die with him like this."
Li Changyi thought again: "Although he has many women, I am the only one who can die with him. I am such a lucky woman."
Thinking of this, Li Changyi suddenly began to look forward to the arrival of the earthquake.
Xu Kai kept comforting Li Changyi in his arms, and their bodies were getting closer and closer.
After more than an hour, there was no more earthquake.
Xu Kai was roughly certain that this was either a small earthquake or an aftershock of a large earthquake somewhere, and there should be no danger today.
Xu Kai wanted to go out and take a look, or turn on the power and find his cell phone to check where the earthquake came from.
But then Xu Kai realized that Li Changyi was hugging his waist tightly, and even her buttocks were sitting on his legs. The posture of the two was really too intimate.
Just now when Xu Kai wanted to reject Li Changyi's words, he was stopped by God.
A promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Nothing is greater than God.
Xu Kaizhen was afraid that he would be punished by God if he didn't want Li Changyi.
And Li Changyi just wanted to stay with Xu Kai like this until the end of time.
Gradually, both of them were sure that the earthquake was over, and then the ambiguity between them continued to escalate.
After a while, Xu Kai, who had the beauty in his arms, could no longer bear it. He helped Li Changyi sit up straight, lowered his head and looked into Li Changyi's eyes affectionately, and said softly: "Xiaoyi, you are so beautiful."
In the dim room, Xu Kai's eyes looked so bright that Li Changyi felt flustered. Xu Kai's face gradually lowered and Li Changyi didn't know how to dodge.
Xu Kai's kissing skills are great, and soon Li Changyi is addicted to the passionate kiss...
Before she knew it, Li Changyi was carried by Xu Kai to the big bed under the starry sky...
It seems that God is really helping Xu Kai and Li Changyi to be together.
——Just when Xu Kai and Li Changyi fell on the bed, a dazzling meteor shower suddenly fell from the sky. They just passed over the heads of the two people on the bed, witnessing the couple being together...
…
The next day, Xu Kai and Li Changyi were awakened early by the dazzling sunlight.
Xu Kai finally realized what was wrong with Li Changyi's observation deck.
The two of them ran to Li Changyi's bedroom and "slept" for another night.
It was not until noon that Xu Kai and Li Changyi officially got up.
After washing up, Li Changyi called Li Yonghong and lied to him that she was going to the United States to study for another year. Without waiting for Li Yonghong's consent, she hung up the phone and followed Xu Kaifei to the United States with a suitcase.
This is exactly in line with the saying that a girl should not be kept when she grows up, otherwise she will create enemies.
After Li Changyi and Xu Kai arrived in the United States, they immediately helped Xu Kai negotiate with Hugh Hefner about the purchase of No. 1 Beishan.
With the help of Li Changyi's connections and mediation, Xu Kai finally bought No. 1 Beishan from Hugh Hefner.
After moving into No. 1 Beishan, Xu Kai finally understood why this place was called the paradise that all men yearn for.
I won’t go into details about the details, but Xu Kai and his group of women had a happy and joyful time here.
Maybe it’s because the feng shui of No. 1 Beishan is really different.
Here, Yang Xinchun and Yang Xindong, who had been unable to conceive, finally succeeded in conceiving Xu Kai's child.
Not only that, a large number of women including Zhu Bing also became pregnant with their second children here.
The most excited one is Dong Ye, who is pregnant with Xu Kai's third child.
In this regard, Xu Kai can only say that the environment has a great impact on people.
…
The box office performance of "Detective Chinatown 2" is legendary.
Since its release, "Detective Chinatown 2" has been performing at the box office fiercely. The industry has also made various predictions about the film's box office, from the very beginning that it would not exceed 4 billion, 4.5 billion at most, and 5 billion was hopeless. Those who were pessimistic about "Detective Chinatown 2" have been slapped in the face again and again.
As of the Chinese New Year, "Detective Chinatown 2" has proved its strength with its breakthroughs time and time again. Those statements of great confidence in "Detective Chinatown 2" have been recognized by more and more people. Now it is certain that the 5 billion mark can no longer stop "Detective Chinatown 2".
Moreover, because Xu Kai has no comedy films released during this year's Spring Festival, "Detective Chinatown 2" can be postponed, and in theory it can even be postponed to May Day next year.
Of course, this is only a theoretical statement. In fact, near the end of the year, the box office of "Detective Chinatown 2" had already begun to drop sharply.
According to conservative estimates, the total box office of "Detective Chinatown 2" is only around 5.5 billion.
Judging from the box office trend of "Detective Chinatown 2", it is not difficult to see that it is obviously impossible to expect "Detective Chinatown 2" to dominate the Spring Festival box office again.
Seeing this, the film producers who had made huge profits from Xu Kai's films came to Xu Kai again, wanting him to come up with another film to compete in the Spring Festival period.
This really made it difficult for Xu Kai.
You know, recently Xu Kai has been filming in the United States, and he is filming several movies at the same time. No matter how energetic he is, it is impossible for him to return to China in such a short period of time to film a movie to compete in the Spring Festival.
but--
These film producers, who have made a lot of money from Xu Kai, don't want to lose the opportunity to continue making money.
So, when they saw that it was no longer realistic for Xu Kai to make a new movie, they turned their attention to "Farewell My Concubine".
Xu Kai said, there is no problem for me to star in "Farewell My Concubine", the key is whether you can ask the relevant departments to lift the ban on "Farewell My Concubine"?
What Xu Kai never expected was that these film producers were actually quite powerful.
——Xu Kai, who was in the United States, didn’t know how they operated. Anyway, seven days before the Chinese New Year (that is, before the Spring Festival), Xu Kai suddenly received a call from the relevant department, saying that "Farewell My Concubine" could be released in China...
