I called, but no one answered.
Seeing Tongtong sitting on the steps looking at the night view pitifully, Ye Wan went over and rubbed her head. "Mom said to come later. Tongtong and sister should go back to the room to play, okay? We will watch Big Bear, Little Bear and Bald Qiang together tonight."
With a pursed mouth and a pitiful look on her face, Tongtong nodded, stood up, took Ye Wan's hand and went back to the hotel.
It was already past 11pm when the doorbell rang.
After opening the door, Yu Xiaoman looked embarrassed, "Sister Wan, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble. Tongtong...is she asleep?"
Ye Wan nodded, and Yu Xiaoman walked in while apologizing repeatedly, went to the bedroom, picked up Tongtong and went to the next room.
After closing the door, Ye Wan stood there alone for a long time.
If she saw it correctly, there was a mark of strangulation on Yu Xiaoman's neck.
The cell phone rang, Ye Wan came back to his senses, walked up to answer the call and chatted with Lu Changchuan for a while.
Knowing that he had met Jerk, he confirmed that he was the person he was looking for.
I also know that he will stay there for the next few days to conduct an expedited interrogation to see if he can find any clues from that year.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Wan fell asleep hugging the quilt.
It was a dreamless night. When the alarm rang, Ye Wan got up, washed up, did a set of Pilates, and then set off for the set.
She thought she arrived early, but unexpectedly, Yu Xiaoman and Tongtong arrived earlier than her.
Today is the day when Tongtong finished filming Liang Gong Ci.
Tongtong was putting on makeup and Yu Xiaoman was sitting on a small stool at her feet.
One hand held her little hand, and the other hand held Tongtong's script.
Yu Xiaoman recited the lines in a soft voice.
After she finished reading, she asked Tongtong to recite it again. If there were any mistakes, she would shake her head and remind her softly.
The mother is gentle and elegant, and the daughter is lively and lovely.
The mother and daughter even look like they were cast in the same mold.
Perhaps because it was the final day of filming, Yu Xiaoman wore a beautiful and fashionable long dress.
His eyes slid across the silk scarf around her neck, and Ye Wan's eyes flashed slightly.
Child stars in film and television studios are almost all like this, except that some of the children come with their parents.
And there is only Yu Xiaoman by Tongtong's side.
I don’t know if it was Ye Wan’s illusion or because Tongtong liked her.
All day long, Tongtong was filming on stage while Yu Xiaoman was waiting in the audience.
When Tongtong was resting, Yu Xiaoman came to her holding her hand, as if she wanted them to get to know each other and become friends.
Sure enough, in just half a day, Tongtong's way of addressing Ye Wan changed from "Sister Ye Wan" when they first met to "Sister".
"Sister Yu..."
While Tongtong was on stage, Ye Wan turned around and looked at Yu Xiaoman, "Have we known each other before?"
Yu Xiaoman was startled and shook her head slowly, "I don't know him."
"But you seem to know me very well and trust me."
Ye Wan smiled and said, "Tongtong said, tell her I will protect her."
"I am the evening breeze."
Yu Xiaoman smiled, as if a little embarrassed, "Sister Wan, although I am a few years older than you, I am considered your oldest fan. Although we have never met, I feel especially safe around you. When Director Dai found me, I thought I was dreaming."
"Sister Wan..."
Yu Xiaoman raised her eyes and looked at Ye Wan, "Thank you for helping me take care of Tongtong yesterday. If the same thing happens again in the future, I hope Sister Wan will help me again because I am a veteran."
It was just an ordinary sentence, but Ye Wan inexplicably heard it as a last will and testament.
It happened that the scene being filmed in the morning was the death of Emperor Liang, and the loyal ministers in the court as well as the concubines in the harem knelt on the ground to listen to his last words.
Thinking that he might be overthinking, Ye Wan nodded, "Okay!"
The filming was completed in the evening and Tongtong officially finished filming.
Yu Xiaoman took Tongtong to thank Director Dai and the crew. Before leaving, she even went to Ye Wan's dressing room to see her.
Embrace.

Until Tongtong skipped away from the set holding Yu Xiaoman's hand, the mark on Yu Xiaoman's neck was still in Ye Wan's mind.
One week later in the evening, Ye Wan received a call from Tongtong.
As soon as the call was connected, a crying voice rang out from the other end, "Sister, save my mother..."
