"Mr. Zhou, you finally woke up."
A familiar voice sounded. It was the assistant who accompanied him this time.
The young assistant walked to Zhou Yiyang's side, put the specially customized breakfast on the table, and then slowly turned and left.
But before he could leave, Zhou Yiyang stopped him and asked, "Are Director Zhang and Zhang Yiling still there?"
Zhou Yiyang remembered that Zhang Yiling had dropped him off at the hotel last night and then left, because she and Zhang Yingyuan were staying at a relative's house in America.
Zhou Yiyang actually had a lot to say about what happened last night.
However, the assistant shook his head and stood straight, as if answering this question would affect his career.
"Mr. Zhou, Director Zhang and Miss Zhang came over this morning and said they're back in Australia. They told you to be safe and be by yourself."
Zhou Yiyang said "oh", not surprised by this result.
"Well, what about Helian Bei? Does he plan to stay here or go back with me?" Zhou Yiyang asked seriously after changing his clothes.
The assistant immediately said, "Mr. Zhou, Helian Bei just sent a message saying he's going to a friend's house in America. Mr. Zhou, I've already booked first-class tickets for tonight as you requested. Do you need me to make changes?"
"No thanks." Zhou Yiyang stretched. "I have to go back quickly. The concert is coming up soon. I also have to find time to film the drama. I don't have any free time to waste."
When Zhou Yiyang returned to Shencheng, it was already past ten o'clock.
It was still very cold in Shanghai at night in early spring, so Zhou Yiyang had to pull his clothes tighter and get into the car that had been prepared in advance.
The driver nodded respectfully to Zhou Yiyang, and then silently sent Zhou Yiyang back to his residence.
However, as soon as Zhou Yiyang got out of the car, he unexpectedly saw several people walking towards him happily.
After seeing them, Zhou Yiyang's mood unconsciously began to improve.
"You guys weren't just watching upstairs, waiting for me to show up and then run down?"
Su Yin, who was walking in front, chuckled and admitted it clearly from her attitude: "Yes, Brother Yang, didn't you post on your Moments saying you were coming back? That way we could estimate how long it would take you to arrive."
"You guys are amazing," Zhou Yiyang said with a smile. He was still adjusting to the time difference, but suddenly he felt less tired. "I feel bad for welcoming me with such a grand ceremony."
Tang Yue waved a glow stick she'd bought from who knows where, and said with a smile, "How could that be? I thought the show wasn't grand enough! Brother Yang, you've won an Oscar now, you should be even more high-profile! I saw in the group chat yesterday that some fans were planning to go to the airport to organize a welcome party!"
"Guan Fei told me about this," Zhou Yiyang shrugged. "I found it scary when I heard it, so I immediately changed my daytime flight to a nighttime one."
"I knew you wouldn't like this, Brother Yang," Wang Xingrui gently touched Lin Xuan'er beside her with her hand, and then said, "Brother Yang has always been a low-key person."
"I know!" Lin Xuan'er's tone was rather regretful. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have canceled our originally planned welcome ceremony."
"Welcome ceremony?" Zhou Yiyang suddenly became interested and asked curiously, "Why don't you tell me what it's like? It sounds interesting!"
"No!" Su Yin immediately shook her head: "That's too stupid! But we still have a lot of food at home, let's go and try it!"
"That's right," Tang Yue also pushed Zhou Yiyang forward: "We haven't had dinner yet. I don't know how long Xiao Xiao Su has been holding back. I guess she's about to faint from hunger now."
"Okay." Zhou Yiyang nodded and prepared to go upstairs.
Zhou Yiyang glanced at Luo Chen and Ling Hu standing at the edge and said with a smile, "Why are you two here to join in the fun? Lao Bai mentioned to me that you two have been very busy filming movies and commercials lately."
"After all, Brother Yang, you won such an impressive award this time," Luo Chen said seriously, "As employees, we definitely have to come and congratulate you."
Ling Hu nodded beside him: "And Ruirui said that she and Xuan'er would prepare dinner this time, so of course we have to come!"
It would be a lie for Zhou Yiyang to say he wasn't touched. What they did was much better than the behavior of his friends who took the opportunity to build relationships under the pretext of congratulations.
After going upstairs, Zhou Yiyang was the first to smell the fragrance from the kitchen.
At this time, Wang Xingrui quickly ran into the kitchen and continued, "Let me heat it up for a while. By the way, Brother Yang, you can have dessert. This is made by Xuan'er according to Xiao Xiaosu's recipe."
Zhou Yiyang looked at Su Yin in surprise, and she explained, "I was tinkering with these with my mom during the Chinese New Year, and I wrote down all her recipes! But I always fail when I make them myself. Xuan'er is really clever and skillful."
Lin Xuaner smiled and pinched Su Yin's cheek: "You're so sweet to let me cook for you."
Zhou Yiyang immediately tasted the dessert. It was sour and very appetizing.
"Not bad," he glanced at Su Yin and suddenly said, "It's a pity there's too much cream. You should eat less recently!"
Soon the room was filled with Su Yin's wails.
Tang Yue was sitting next to Zhou Yiyang at the moment and asked curiously, "Brother Yang, you met so many international superstars yesterday. Do you think they are very different from our domestic stars?"
Zhou Yiyang thought seriously for a while before answering Tang Yue's question: "I don't think it's a big deal at all. I don't really think that winning an Oscar makes me that great."
"Brother Yang, if you say that, I don't know how many people will be upset." Ling Hu joked, "Other directors may have always wanted to get something but couldn't, but you think it's nothing special."
Luo Chen seemed to be arguing with Ling Hu out of habit, and said with a smile, "You understand now. They think it's nothing, as if they haven't taken it. Brother Yang thinks it's nothing, because he actually took it."
Before they could argue, Wang Xingrui had already walked over to them with the prepared dinner.
Smelling the rich aroma, Zhou Yiyang immediately felt an appetite.
Zhou Yiyang enjoyed the meal very much. It was much more delicious than what he had eaten abroad.
The most important thing is that the people who ate with him were not those with ulterior motives who would try to coax him into cooperation with just a few words.
The purpose of each of them coming here to eat was very simple, which was to celebrate Zhou Yiyang winning the Oscar.
At this time, Zhou Yiyang would be truly grateful for the opportunity to be reborn, otherwise he would not be able to experience such feelings.
At the same time, it also strengthened his belief in letting his artists reach the top and go global.
