Chapter 57 Party - I love you, you know I love you, I know...
Qiao Zhizheng got a golden Pixiu with lifelike fur texture. Although it was the size of a palm, it was carved very vividly.
Qiao Zhizheng put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully. It was shining with golden light and attracted everyone's attention.
"So... is this a pair with your golden Pixiu?"
"Well... you can think so."
"Huh? Isn't that what you originally thought?"
"Didn't you say you would be happy if you got this?"
Qiao Zhizheng was just imitating those people on the internet who were boasting about their work. She hadn't expected Qiao Zheng to take it so seriously. Her heart tingled, and she asked calmly, "Is it that simple?"
Qiao Zheng said calmly, "It's that simple."
This simple sentence was taken seriously to heart. The sudden surge of happiness in Qiao Zhizheng's heart at this moment was indescribable. Qiao Zhizheng looked at Qiao Zheng's profile as she concentrated on driving. The scenery outside the window kept changing. She looked at her with a happy smile, and had an idea that if only this road could be longer, time could be slower, and she and she could stay in this space with only the two of them for a little longer.
The journey will not be shortened because of anyone's ideas. When Qiao Zheng stopped the car, Qiao Zhizheng was unaware of it. His eyes lingered on her face, and his heart was dreaming of beautiful fantasies in the distant and long future. Qiao Zheng unbuckled her seat belt and did not hear any movement from the co-pilot. When she turned her head, she fell into Qiao Zhizheng's tender eyes.
Qiao Zheng's upper body passed over the central armrest, and she was face to face with Qiao Zhizheng. Her strong arms supported her sides, and the heat from her wrists penetrated the fabric of her skirt and touched the skin of Qiao Zhizheng's thigh.
The ambient light in the car faintly reflected the loose hair on Qiao Zhizheng's temples, which were soft and sticky to her temples, looking very cute. Qiao Zheng wanted to kiss her, but when her lips touched hers, she found that the kiss fell on the edge of Qiao Zhizheng's soft lips. Feeling the line of her lips, Qiao Zheng stretched out the tip of her tongue and moistened the lip line.
Qiao Zhizheng opened her eyes wide, with flames burning in them. She passionately hugged Qiao Zheng's head and kissed her deeply in return.
Qiao Zheng didn't know when she sat astride Qiao Zhizheng's legs. The originally spacious seat suddenly became cramped. The two flexible bodies were pressed tightly against each other, and the air was damp and sticky.
The heartbeat from her left heart was transmitted powerfully to her right chest, and her right chest was filled with the words of love spoken by the heartbeat.
After an unknown amount of time, Qiao Zhizheng leaned on Qiao Zheng's chest and calmed his breathing, "What time is it now?"
Qiao Zheng raised her wrist to check the time, "They're almost here."
“…”
Qiao Zheng sensed something was wrong in Qiao Zhizheng's silence. She felt something in her heart and slowly turned around to meet Lou Heng's shocked eyes. Xia Cangshu was pulling her aside as if he was about to leave. After meeting Qiao Zheng's gaze, Xia Cangshu said something with an awkward smile. After he finished speaking, he realized that Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng probably couldn't hear him through the car window, so he pulled Lou Heng, who staggered. Xia Cangshu hurriedly pulled Lou Heng away, as if there was a ghost chasing him from behind.
Qiao Zhizheng had never thought about hiding her relationship with Qiao Zheng, but she felt embarrassed about being caught by an acquaintance.
Qiao Zheng was still quite calm. She loosened Qiao Zhizheng's hair tie and combed her messy hair with her hands. Her soft fingertips stroked her scalp with neither light nor heavy force, giving her just the right amount of comfort. A tingling sensation spread from the top of her head throughout her body. Qiao Zhizheng's embarrassment disappeared, and she just wanted to turn into a pool of spring water and lie in Qiao Zheng's arms.
When getting off the car, Qiao Zhizheng half-hung beside Qiao Zheng, and Qiao Zheng let her cling to her like a koala.
"Ah, ah, ah? Didn't you ever think of covering it up?"
Meng Hanyan asked curiously about their relationship.
In the box, Qiao Zheng sat under the golden light, looking down at the bright and eye-catching geometric patterned carpet, waiting for Qiao Zhizheng's answer.
Qiao Zhizheng's answer was as sincere as ever. "We are in love, not planning to do anything bad together. What is there to hide?"
"You..." Lou Heng sat opposite them, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He opened his mouth, then closed it again as if he had thought of something.
Qiao Zheng raised her eyes and looked at her, "Qiao Zhizheng's contract does not restrict her love life."
Lou Heng coughed and said, "You misunderstood. That's not what I meant."
Liu Yu and Zhang Yu looked at the boss Qiao Zhizheng, whom they had only heard of and met for the first time, and were a little curious about her next answer.
Lou Heng glanced at Xia Cangshu, who was still immersed in the embarrassment of catching people being intimate, and ignored Lou Heng's gaze.
Lou Heng said, "What I'm going to say next might be a bit presumptuous."
Except for Xia Cangshu and Qiao Zheng, everyone else was wondering how presumptuous it could be.
Lou Heng asked rather presumptuously, "When you two kiss, do you feel a familiar feeling, like your left hand touching your right hand?"
Li Tianyi couldn't help but say, "...It's quite presumptuous."
Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng looked at Li Tianyi at the same time. Li Tianyi had come after all. In her words, "Keeping secrets all the time will only make them suspicious. If I come out occasionally to make my presence felt, they might feel more at ease."
Li Tianyi blinked, touched his nose, and continued, "But I'm also curious, aren't you two embarrassed when you kiss?"
Qiao Zheng: "With my looks, who is worthy of me?"
Qiao Zhizheng continued her proud style and tilted her head slightly, "Can't you see that we're a perfect match?"
“…”
“…That makes sense.”
Not only did they think it made sense, the paparazzi did too. Flipping through the photos of Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng together, paparazzi A asked awkwardly, "Are you sure you want to use these photos to ask Hengxing Entertainment for money? These two look quite similar, are they really not sisters?"
Paparazzi B rolled his eyes. "Whose sisters kiss passionately in a car in public?"
Paparazzi C asked, "So are we still going to ask Hengxing for money?"
Paparazzi B: “Of course!”
Paparazzi A: "I have a bad feeling."
Paparazzi B: "Aren't we doing this just for money?"
Qiao Zhizheng received a call from Ding Qian and listened to her talk about the photo. "...I wonder what Mr. Lou and Director Xia think about it. Will it have any impact?"
After all, one is the boss and the other is a big director. Ding Qian's worries are understandable. The bosses of entertainment companies are both lenient and strict about their artists revealing their love lives. Ding Qian can't guess Lou Heng's attitude.
"Another Me in the World" is about to go on roadshow. At this time, the two leading actors were exposed to be in a relationship. The direction of public opinion is unclear. Ding Qian is worried that Xia Cangshu will have a bad impression of Qiao Zhizheng because of this.
Ding Qian said, "...I tried my best to contact them, but I couldn't get through to them."
Qiao Zhizheng stood on the terrace, looking back at the scene inside the house behind the glass door. Under the flowing colorful lights, Meng Hanyan and Lou Heng, two microphone masters, sang louder and louder. Qiao Zhizheng thought that in such a noisy environment, it would be difficult to hear clearly if two people were talking face to face without microphones.
Qiao Zhizheng reassured Ding Qian, "Boss Lou and Director Xia are both with me. I'll ask them."
Qiao Zhizheng walked in just as they finished a song. Taking advantage of the rare quiet moment when the song was changing, Qiao Zhizheng told Xia Cangshu and Lou Heng that the paparazzi had taken photos of Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng kissing.
Lou Heng put down the phone with regret, "I understand? So what?"
Lou Heng didn't think this matter had any impact, as long as it didn't hinder Qiao Zhizheng from making money for her. Instead, she felt that Qiao Zhizheng's current state was perfect. She used to be content with a miserable life, but now that she was in a relationship, she had a goal in life, and her whole spirit was different. She worked hard to live and make money - and at the same time, she was also working hard to make money for Lou Heng. Lou Heng was very satisfied with this.
Xia Cangshu's attitude was indifferent. "Let them release it. Just consider it as free publicity for the movie."
With the assurance from these two, Ding Qian felt relieved. After rejecting the paparazzi, she stayed in the public relations department, always paying attention to the direction of public opinion on the Internet, and tried her best to steer the public opinion in a direction that would be favorable to Qiao Zhizheng after the photos were exposed.
Lou Heng picked up the microphone and handed it to Qiao Zheng. He was very happy to see Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng so sweet and happy. "Young couple, why don't you sing a little love song?"
Li Tianyi urged from the side, "Hurry up, hurry up, I haven't heard you two sing yet."
Meng Hanyan, who was always very warm and friendly whenever she wasn't on set, joined in the fun. "There are two big directors here. Director Xia and I should listen to your songs. We can't sing, but we've heard a lot of good ones. Let's listen and make our own judgment. Hey, maybe you can even make a career in the music industry in the future."
Qiao Zheng is very self-aware. Her singing skills are good enough for her to perform at a local TV station's gala, but she is absolutely not qualified to be a professional singer and release an album. She cannot harm her fans who truly love her.
Qiao Zhizheng was also very self-aware. Her eyes were full of expectation, and Qiao Zheng understood her expectation. She knew that Qiao Zhizheng was looking forward to singing a song with Qiao Zheng, and that was all.
Qiao Zheng nodded, "Okay, then I'll show you my ugliness."
The song was chosen by Qiao Zhizheng - "On the Other Side of the Water" by Teresa Teng.
As she sang, Qiao Zheng realized that Qiao Zhizheng had made the right choice of song. The more she sang, the more she felt that it was the story of herself and Qiao Zhizheng.
“…
I would like to go upstream and snuggle up to her.
Unfortunately, there are dangerous rapids ahead and the road is long and far.
I would like to go downstream and find her direction.
But she seemed vaguely in the middle of the water.
I would like to go upstream and speak softly to her.
Unfortunately, there are dangerous rapids ahead and the road is endlessly winding.
I would like to go downstream and look for her footprints.
But I seemed to be vaguely seeing her standing in the water.
..."①
After the song ended, Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng held hands and listened to the enthusiastic applause from the crowd.
"Seeing how hesitant you were just now, I thought you couldn't sing. Now, don't you sing quite well?"
"Are you two really not considering releasing a singing album?"
Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng both shook their heads, "No."
The two of them turned their heads to look at each other and smiled.
The timbre was good, the singing was in tune, and the singing was pleasant, but that was all. Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng knew very well that they were not cut out to be professional singers.
If everyone says that the song we sang today is good, it is only because the song just perfectly captures the moods of Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng. They express their feelings, which cannot be fully expressed in words, to each other through the song.
——I love you, you know I love you, I know you know I love you.
-----------------------
The author has something to say: ① The original version of Teresa Teng's "On the Other Side of the Water" is very nice and classic, but the first version I listened to was sung by Bucai Dada. I listened to her songs, and then listened to her other songs, and then I knew "On the Other Side of the Water". If you like to listen to ancient style songs, you should know her.
Here are the full lyrics:
Green grass and white fog
There is a beautiful woman on the other side of the water
Lush green grass and misty white fog
There is a beautiful woman living by the water
I want to go against the current
Snuggle up to her
Unfortunately, there are dangerous rapids ahead
The road is long and far
I want to go downstream
Find her direction
But I vaguely seem
She is in the middle of the water
I want to go against the current
Talk to her softly
Unfortunately, there are dangerous rapids ahead
The road is full of twists and turns
I want to go downstream
Find her footsteps
But I seem to vaguely
She stood in the water
Green grass and white fog
There is a beautiful woman on the other side of the water
