17. Leave home after the holiday
Mr. Xu's sudden bow scared the two of them. Chi Yi hurriedly reached out to help him but Mr. Xu dodged him.
Five seconds later, Mr. Xu slowly raised his head and smiled at Guan Miao's head: "Why are you bowing?"
Guan Miao finally dared to slowly look up, and when he saw him standing straight, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Mr. Xu, I was really frightened by your sudden action. Tell me, aren't you embarrassing me? How can I bear your bow?"
Just thinking about it makes me feel like my life will be shortened.
Mr. Xu smiled at her, and his wrinkled face radiated a different kind of glow at this moment.
"Can I call you Xiaoguan?"
Guan Miao nodded hurriedly, "Of course, you can call me anything you want."
"Xiao Guan, that bow just now was my way of expressing my gratitude to you on behalf of the other people in the Natural Environment Bureau. Thank you for your willingness to hand over such a precious system to the country, and thank you for allowing us to exchange it."
“So that’s why.”
After learning the whole story, she felt relieved, "Mr. Xu, my father is a scientific research confidentiality officer, and my mother is a university professor.
Through their words and deeds, I always remember that national interests always come first. So, Mr. Xu, don't do this; this is what I should do."
Hearing her say this, Mr. Xu nodded approvingly, "I am very happy and relieved that you think so.
It would be great if all the people in our country could think like you."
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I'm overthinking it. It's getting late, so I'll go back first. If you need any help in the future, just come to me."
"Well, don't worry, Mr. Xu. If that day ever comes, I will definitely not be polite."
After the two of them helped Mr. Xu get into the car, they waited there for An Jing to drive over.
"The last fifty points, apart from the crew's love for you, were mostly earned because you posted photos with other actors online.
Simply put, it is to take advantage of other people's popularity. They can guess that you are not ordinary, so they are willing to cooperate with you.
What are your plans for the next 100 points?"
"For now, we can only wait until the show is released and see how it's received."
"You don't have a partner in the drama. It will be difficult for you to attract a large number of fans after the drama becomes a hit." Chi Yi pointed out her biggest flaw in the drama.
"so……"
"So, after the show comes out, I will hype up your CP."
Without waiting for Guan Miao to speak, Chi Yi quickly finished the rest of his words, "The fact that you and Xu Ruoming are sisters has long been spread, and the photos of the two of you together have also been the most popular during this period.
And you two happen to be mother and daughter in the drama, so it's suitable to promote your relationship as a couple, and you don't have to worry too much about purification issues in the later stage.
There must be a lot of fans for official pairings like the male and female leads. Qiao Lu and Ran Yunhua both have huge traffic, and if the post-production purification is not done well, it will be very ugly. "
After hearing that it was Teacher Xu who was going to be a couple, Guan Miao became more cheerful. "Then you can discuss it with Teacher Xu. If she's willing, I have no problem with that."
"Okay, I'll tell you when I'm sure. Actually, you and Shen Yujun can also be hyped up as a couple, but the other party will definitely not let go of the official pairing and then turn around and hype up this weird couple with you."
As they were talking, An Jing drove the car and stopped in front of them, "Get in."
After getting in the car, Guan Miao continued to ask: "If I become the female lead in the future and have an official partner, will I also have to go through a purification process?"
"Not necessarily. If your drama isn't popular or the production team hasn't arranged to hype up a real-life couple, and it's just the audience spontaneously wanting to do it, I won't make a move."
"I see."
…
They have to go back to the crew tomorrow afternoon. Guan Miao insisted on sleeping with Guan's mother. An Jing and Guan Yu couldn't persuade her, so they just let her go.
Guan Miao, who had succeeded, smiled like a little mouse who had stolen something he loved, and was almost showing off to the sky.
On the bed, Guan Miao finished washing up and jumped into the soft quilt. The faint scent of laundry detergent on the quilt filled her nose.
She lowered her head and took a deep breath, her face full of satisfaction, "Ah, this is the smell, the smell of my mother."
The next second, Guan's mother mercilessly punctured her fantasy, "Go away, what's the smell on my body? It's obviously the smell of laundry detergent, nonsense.
I think you've been filming so much every day that your nose is broken."
"Mom, my dear mom, how did you know that our group burns incense every day? It makes me look like a Taoist nun. It must be because of this that my nose is damaged."
Mother Guan, who was taking care of her skin at the dressing table, rolled her eyes ungracefully, “Nonsense, even though she’s quiet, she’s still with you on the set, and she’s not doing well.
By the way, I made some pickled cucumbers a couple of days ago. Take two jars back with you tomorrow when you leave. This way, if you think your fat-reducing meal is bland, you can pair it with two pickled cucumbers, and it will definitely go well with rice."
"Oh! Really? Thank you so much, my dear mother."
"loquacious."
Although Guan's mother expressed disdain on the surface, she could not hide the love in her eyes.
After the skin care, Guan Miao hugged his mother and talked about the various things that happened on the set.
"By the way, Mom, I remember you seemed to like Teacher Qiao Lu very much. Do you want me to help you get a few autographed photos?"
"No need, just focus on filming."
Guan's mother clapped her hands, but she was thinking that although an autographed photo was a small thing, it was still a favor. Miaomiao had just entered the entertainment industry, and it was not a good thing to owe favors everywhere.
Guan Miao didn't think too much about it, just thought that his mother thought this thing was useless. "Okay, then next time you have time, come to Q City to see me, and I will introduce you to each other in person."
"good."
The mother and daughter talked until almost eleven o'clock. Guan Miao was not sleepy at all, but seeing that her mother's eyes were hazy, she stopped talking with her head nodding.
"Mom, I want to eat shengjianbao tomorrow morning."
"Okay, go to sleep."
"Um."
Amidst the familiar scent of laundry detergent, night owl Guan Miao finally went to bed early one day.
The next morning, she ate the pan-fried buns she had been craving, while Guan's parents kept putting things into the trunk of the car.
"The weather will gradually get colder when you go back this time. I found some thick clothes in your room yesterday. Wear them as a warm blanket when the temperature drops. I'll buy more if you run out."
"Your mother made some pickled cucumbers and chili sauce. Don't eat too much at once. Let An Jing watch over you."
"knew--."
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chi Yi and Chai Yue showed up at Guan's house on time. "Uncle and aunt, we will be back by the end of the year at the latest. We will tell you if anything happens. Don't worry."
"Yes, and Mom and Dad, you're welcome to come visit me in Q City when you're free."
Guan's parents nodded repeatedly, and Guan Yu's voice was a little low, "Let's go quickly, otherwise the highway will be congested and it will be bad if we arrive at the crew late."
Guan Miao nodded, and sitting in the car holding San San, he waved to them, "Mom and Dad, wait for me to come back."
"Okay. You all need to take care of yourselves."
"Um."
Only after the car was out of sight did Guan Yu pat his mother's shoulder and say, "Let's go back too. Don't let Miaomiao worry."
Guan's mother wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and walked into the house with Guan's father.
The house, which was bustling for a while because of Guan Miao's return, will be quiet for a long time again.
