Li Yaolin saw Zheng Xuan again after a day of operation on Xingzhou Island.
There were only two staff members from the wedding photography studio beside Zheng Xuan. Li Yaolin asked, "Where is Brother Sun?"
"He is not feeling well and is sleeping in the room."
"Not feeling well? The doctors are off work. Is he okay? Or should I arrange a passenger boat to take him to the other side and take a bus to the hospital?"
"He is having a seizure. Don't worry about him."
"It's more important to take him seriously when he is having a seizure, right?" Li Yaolin didn't want anyone to die on Xingzhou Island.
But I haven't heard that Sun Fu had any disease before?
Zheng Xuan's originally serious face couldn't hold back her laughter and she burst into laughter. She pointed to her head and said, "There is a hole in his brain and he is seriously ill."
Li Yaolin: "..."
She saw that the couple probably had a quarrel.
Then he asked, "How will he solve the problem of dinner?"
"Let him cook instant noodles!" Zheng Xuan changed the subject, "I'm so hungry, if you need any help, I'll do it!"
Li Yaolin ended the topic, took out the ingredients for the hot pot, asked them to wash them, and killed the fish, peeled the shrimps and made shrimp balls.
After eating and drinking, everyone cleaned up the table and kitchen waste. The people in the wedding studio were not familiar with Li Yaolin, so they went back to rest first, and Zheng Xuan followed Li Yaolin to the island for a walk to digest the food.
Looking at the bright lights on the opposite bank, Zheng Xuan asked Li Yaolin: "At night, you are the only one on the island, won't you be afraid?"
"There's nothing to be afraid of. It's very safe here, and there are security guards on night shift, and there are also security guards in the protection area."
"Oh~" Zheng Xuan suddenly asked, "Sanniang, actually you are the owner of Xingzhou Island, the boss that the ticket seller mentioned, right?"
The sea breeze was a little strong at night, and Zheng Xuan's hair was messed up. She raised her hand to tuck her hair behind her ears, and then looked at Li Yaolin quietly.
Li Yaolin didn't expect her to ask so directly. She smiled and gave an affirmative answer: "Yes."
Zheng Xuan pursed his lips, digesting the news for a while, and then said: "I was a little suspicious when I got the ticket, but I thought the answer was a bit absurd, so I didn't think much about it. Later, I checked on the Internet, and searched for 'owner of Xingzhou Island' but didn't find any results, but searched for the Poseidon Holiday Company that operates Xingzhou Island, and found the name of the owner."
Li Yaolin smiled and said: "Brother Xuan is still smart. Qitong didn't dare to guess it from me!"
Zheng Xuan said helplessly: "Who would think of this if they know you!"
"That's right." Li Yaolin nodded, "You have to keep it a secret for me!"
"Then you have to tell me first, how did you suddenly become the island owner? Were you tricked into being the legal representative or something? Or are you just a second-generation rich man who has been hiding your background since college?" "
I signed a confidentiality agreement, so there are some things I can't tell you. I can only say that I'm also working for someone else."
Zheng Xuan didn't really want to get to the bottom of it. Knowing that she was in trouble, he stopped asking and took the initiative to change the subject: "It's really beautiful here!"
Li Yaolin asked: "How did the wedding photos go?"
"We took a set in the afternoon." Zheng Xuan sighed, "It's nice to take wedding photos here, but..."
Li Yaolin heard what she had not finished saying: "But you are not happy?"
"I'm having a lot of fun here, but recently I've been increasingly doubting whether my decision to marry him was the right one."
From the moment she knew she was pregnant until now, how many struggles had she put in her heart? Every time she struggled, she was bound by an invisible yoke.
——"Sun Fen is 25 years old. You can't put off getting married and having children any longer."
——"After you give birth, go back to work at the company. Then you can focus on your work and don't have to worry about having a child during your career boom."
——"Your uterus is thin. If you have an abortion, it will be hard to have children in the future."
——"You have been together for so many years. Are you willing to separate so easily?"
——"Sun Fen is working hard to give you and your child better living conditions. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
——"When the time comes, your parents-in-law will take care of your child. What are you afraid of?"
...
The shackles on her are getting more and more. Today, Sun Fen repeatedly jumped on her bottom line, making her tired and breathless.
"You are very anxious." Li Yaolin said.
Zheng Xuan came back to his senses and sighed: "I had passed the interview of a Fortune 500 foreign company, but as soon as the pre-employment physical examination report came out, I lost the job. I have been sending out resumes recently, but which company will hire a pregnant woman?
"Without a job and no income, clothes and cosmetics will have to give way to future milk powder and diapers. Sun Fen's parents said nice things and let me go to work after the confinement period. They would help me take care of the child, but they kept talking about giving birth to a boy. I can imagine that if I couldn't give birth to a boy, they would definitely leave the child to me to take care of by myself.
"Also, his parents said that the betrothal gift is 38,000 yuan. When we go back to the village to hold a wedding banquet, we can take the 38,000 yuan back..."
Li Yaolin knew that Sun Fen was from Conghua District, Yangshi City, and his family had a lychee orchard. He was the only son in the family, so his family was inevitably biased towards boys.
Zheng Xuan had never told the people in the dormitory about these things before. First, like Li Yaolin, she was not the kind of person who would easily tell others about her secrets. Second, these things were not glorious. It would be embarrassing to tell them out, and it would be easy for people to point fingers at them.
But now she just needed an opportunity to confide and vent. She knew Li Yaolin's secret (the identity of the island owner), so she could tell Li Yaolin the secret and her worries without any psychological burden.
Suddenly, Li Yaolin asked her, "Are you still making handicrafts now?"
The topic changed so quickly that Zheng Xuan almost didn't react: "Ah? No, I don't have time recently, and my parents won't let me."
Zheng Xuan has a hobby, which is to make some handicrafts in her spare time. She played origami in high school and mixed in the "doll circle" in college.
She didn't have money to buy clothes for dolls, so she made them herself. Later, the clothes and accessories she made for dolls were unexpectedly popular, so she changed to making handmade accessories, and she even earned back the money she spent on dolls.
Later, she started making figures... until she graduated from college.
Her skills in this area are better than her major, and she can be regarded as a model of "not doing her job properly."
Li Yaolin said, "Do you plan to continue doing this? Why don't you come to work here and be responsible for the design and production of cultural and creative products?"
Zheng Xuan: "..."
Should I say it or not, is she really a hard worker? She can talk about work at this critical moment.
She was just sentimental about her gloomy and confused life, but Li Yaolin's words made her corrupted by money, and her mind was full of beautiful pictures of the surrounding big sellers!
Although Li Yaolin seemed indifferent to her emotional life and situation, they had lived together for four years after all. She knew Li Yaolin's character. She didn't say it, but she actually wanted to express her care and support for her in her own way.
As Zheng Xuan thought, Li Yaolin did want to divert her attention appropriately, so that she wouldn't think more and more, become more anxious, and eventually fall into a state of depression and anxiety.
However, Li Yaolin is also seriously considering making cultural and creative products.
Turtles have been very popular recently, and many tourists come here for them, but they are disappointed that they cannot get close to them. So some tourists left messages saying that they want a model of the turtle and asked when Xingzhou Island would release peripheral products. The
name collection activity happened to be coming to an end, and Li Yaolin was thinking that after the name of the turtle was decided, he would start to design and produce cultural and creative products.
Cultural and creative products can not only make money, but also deepen the connection between tourists and Xingzhou Island, and enhance the reputation of Xingzhou Island and the impression of tourists.
It is also a symbol of a brand. Since Xingzhou Island wants to create a unique tourism brand, models, souvenirs, etc. must also keep up!
Unfortunately, she didn't know much about this business, and the only person she could think of was Zheng Xuan.
"Sanniang, you really..." Zheng Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After a while, tears welled up in her eyes. "I want to sleep with you tonight!"
Li Yaolin pretended to be shy: "Ah, it's not good. I heard that it's not suitable for the first three months of pregnancy..."
Before she finished her words, Zheng Xuan rushed over and hit her: "Get lost, I want to sleep with you, not be slept with by you."
After such a fight, Zheng Xuan felt much more relieved and was not as depressed as before.
"Are you feeling better?" Li Yaolin asked her, "If not, I'll show you something else." The
"I'm fine" that was on the tip of her tongue was swallowed back by Zheng Xuan.
Li Yaolin took her to the fishing platform. The tide was high at this time, and many reefs were submerged under the tide. If the fishing platform was lower, it would probably be submerged by the tide.
"What are you doing here?" Zheng Xuan walked very carefully, fearing that the wood under her feet would suddenly break and she would fall into the dark and deep sea.
"Wait." Li Yaolin said.
After five minutes, Zheng Xuan was bored and a little sleepy. She planned to call Li Yaolin back, but when she opened her eyes, a burst of colorful starlight suddenly appeared on the sea surface below the fishing platform. It rose and fell with the waves, like a flowing galaxy.
She thought she was sleepy and rubbed her eyes uncertainly.
The light did not dissipate, but became brighter.
Slowly, the whole sea surface lit up. Zheng Xuan seemed to be in the starlight, and instantly forgot all the troubles in the world. All she could see were the brilliant stars and the charming sea.
Zheng Xuan grabbed Li Yaolin's arm and asked incoherently: "What kind of light is this? Sanniang, what is the effect?"
Li Yaolin explained seriously: "This is called sea fire, a phenomenon of seawater luminescence, emitted by luminous plankton."
She was not lying, but ordinary "sea fire" did not have this effect.
Zheng Xuan was so excited that she screamed: "Ah, it's so beautiful!"
She hurriedly took out her mobile phone to take pictures, and Sun Fen happened to call her. She hung up without thinking, for fear that Sun Fen's call would delay her taking pictures.
After a while, the light faded, and slowly, the sea returned to its depths.
Zheng Xuan said to Li Yaolin with great regret: "No? I still want you to take some photos for me!"
Li Yaolin smiled slightly: "You can still see it again if you have the chance. Well, it's a bit windy here, don't catch a cold, let's go back!"
Zheng Xuan took her arm and said sadly: "You did it on purpose, didn't you? You deliberately tempted me to stay and help you with the periphery."
Li Yaolin turned her face away, lowered her head slightly and looked at her, with a smile on her lips: "Well, I did it on purpose. Are you tempted by my proposal?"
The pressure was returned to Zheng Xuan.
Zheng Xuan touched her belly, which was not very obvious, and didn't know how to answer.
If she had not been pregnant and had not married Sun Fen, Li Yaolin's proposal would have been very tempting.
However, without this premise, she would have already worked in that Fortune 500 foreign company, and Li Yaolin might not have looked for her, right?
After walking back, neither of them discussed topics related to their love lives. Zheng Xuan was like a curious baby, asking about the "unsolved mysteries" of Xingzhou Island. She also said, "It's all because of that magazine. It wrote the first part but not the second part, which made me anxious. Fortunately, you are here. You can tell me anything I want to know."
"What magazine?"
"It seems to be called "Departure·Our Journey", a travel magazine. The cover of this issue is Xingzhou Island. Didn't you know?"
"Oh, I know, but I didn't expect you to see that magazine." Li Yaolin smiled slyly, "If that's the case, for the sake of next month's magazine sales, I won't tell you the answer."
Zheng Xuan accused, "How could you do that? It's too much."
...
That night, Zheng Xuan had a rare good sleep and had a wonderful dream.
The next morning, when Li Yaolin got up, Zheng Xuan also got up. Because she got up early, she was lucky enough to see a green sea turtle that had climbed onto the beach to rest last night and had not had time to return to the sea.
Seeing a group of seabirds going out to sea to forage with the morning sun, Zheng Xuan couldn't help but recall last night's dream. That dream was very long and beautiful, but Sun Fen was not in that dream.
"Do you want to go in and see the turtle eggs?" Li Yaolin asked Zheng Xuan.
Zheng Xuan immediately perked up: "Is it okay?"
Li Yaolin took her outside the incubator. She looked left and right but didn't see any turtle eggs: "Where are they?"
"Buried in the sand waiting to hatch!"
Zheng Xuan: "..."
Then why did you ask me to come over to see? What the hell!
Li Yaolin laughed and pointed to the photos on the blackboard and said: "Look here!"
These photos were taken when Long Feng and others took out the turtle eggs and moved them.
Zheng Xuan looked at the photo, but in her mind she had already sketched out a picture of her modeling a sea turtle laying eggs. Her heart suddenly surged with excitement, and she asked, "Sanniang, are you serious about cultural and creative things?"
Li Yaolin knew that she had an idea in her mind, so she said, "I never joke about work."
"Then I want to give it a try." Zheng Xuan's eyes were firm.
She had never thought that a hobby could become a career. After all, she used to do handicrafts just for fun in her spare time. Even Sun Fen, who knew that she had always had this hobby, did not think that this could become a serious job.
But when she faced the things she loved, she could not deceive herself by the reaction in her mind to make a model of it.
It just so happened that she also understood the production process of cultural and creative products. Although she was not very professional, it was also a brand new attempt!
Suddenly, she said with some embarrassment: "But Sanniang, I don't know much about Youshi, and I don't know if there are any factories here that can process. Most of the people I know are in Yangshi."
Li Yaolin understood what she meant and said, "Then choose to cooperate with the manufacturers you think are reliable. It doesn't matter where they are. As for your place of work... This is not a position where you have to stay in the office every day. It is more convenient for you to communicate and accept with the manufacturers in Yangshi. However, to deepen the communication in development and design, you have to come back here often, which will be very hard."
"I..."
"It's okay, take your time to think about it. If it really doesn't work, you can just pull a development team in Yang City, register it as a studio, be your own boss, I'll give you the authorization, and then we'll split the profits in proportion."
Zheng Xuan nodded: "I'll give you an answer as soon as possible."
The author has something to say:
Island owner: Let's make money together, sisters!
(u1s1, the island owner is trying to poach people, and so far, except for Lin Qitong, there is no one he hasn't poached successfully! Hahahaha...
Lin Qitong is very proud.)
