One hundred and seventy-four, three three leave
After five full days of counting, San San's warehouse was finally completely emptied.
Guan Miao has almost recovered with the help of special medicine, but her illness has caused a lot of controversy, and appearing in public in just one month is bound to cause unnecessary disputes.
So during this period of time, Guan Miao could only stay at home and be a lazy person.
She looked at San San, who was wagging his tail and in a good mood, and asked, "San San, when are you planning to leave?"
San San stopped shaking his tail and turned to look at her, with seriousness written all over his cute cat face.
[I looked it up and it's three days from now. They say it's a very auspicious day.]
Guan Miao was a little confused when he heard this. "On this auspicious day, should we use your algorithm or ours?"
[That must be our algorithm. Three days from now at nine o'clock in the evening, auspicious.]
"Okay, I'll set an alarm and take you there. But how are you going to get back? Is it going to be like they show on TV, where you just take off in an instant or something?"
San San was speechless. "How can I be like those people? Of course I would just turn into a shooting star and streak across the sky."
"Oh, I see." Guan Miao nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "Can I make a wish to the shooting star you turned into? I've lived for so long and have never seen a shooting star."
Hearing her words, San San rolled his eyes without any hesitation, but An Jing beside him laughed out loud.
"Miaomiao, the direction the meteor streaked across should be different from the direction Sansan left. If you want to see the meteors, we'll go with you next time there's a meteor shower."
"That's fine. The meteor shower should be more spectacular."
The two were chatting happily when San San suddenly said, "An Jing, please go out for a moment. I have something to talk to Miao Miao about alone."
Hearing this, An Jing subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Guan Miao said, "Then An Jing, go and help me see if Sister Yuning needs any help."
Seeing that she said that, An Jing gave up the idea of refusing and said, "Okay, I'll go over and take a look. Do you want me to bring you some snacks?"
“That would be great if there is one!”
After the door was closed, San San jumped in front of her and said, "What will you do after I leave?"
"Me? Of course I'll go to school if I pass the re-examination. If I don't, I'll continue acting and try for the second round."
After she finished speaking, she seemed to have just realized San San's point and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my contract with Sister Deng is still in place. As for Sister Chi Yi and the others, although they are leaving, the resources I can get are still the best in the industry.
Don't worry, even if they do something treacherous, my assets are enough to support me for the rest of my life."
[How much did those items sell for in total?]
"At least eleven figures, and this is tax-free, so don't worry, I'm a wealthy woman now. Even if I retire from the entertainment industry starting today, my quality of life won't decline at all."
After hearing her say this, San San finally felt relieved. [That's good. Are the flowers I gave you yesterday still there?]
"Of course, I took good care of it."
[Since we have known each other for three years, this flower is my last guarantee for you. If you encounter any fatal problems, you can break off the petals, and then I will be able to sense it and come to find you.
But you only have one chance, so think carefully before you make a move.]
After San San finished speaking, he received a grateful look from Guan Miao, "San San, you are so kind. I am so lucky to have found such a great treasure like you."
"Okay, calm down," San San said, pushing her away in disgust. "You're a big star after all, so take care of yourself."
"Hehe, no way. At my age, I should be a grandparent in your eyes, right?"
[Then you call me grandma?]
Instead of waiting for "Grandma", I received her surprise: "Wow, San San, you are a girl!"
[…Your point is truly hard for most people to grasp. Okay, call An Jing in. If we wait any longer, she'll probably start to worry I've kidnapped you.]
"Okay."
An Jing, who was standing guard outside the door, saw Guan Miao open the door and said, "Sister Deng Ling sent you a message just now, but you didn't reply, so she sent it to me. She wanted to tell you that the Silver Tripod Award will be presented tonight, so you should get ready."
"What are you preparing for? What's there to prepare for?" Guan Miao turned around and closed the door nonchalantly. "This award will definitely not fall on me. I was shortlisted just to fill the void for Si Gui."
An Jing asked back, "Are you sure?"
Guan Miao nodded, spread his hands, and said helplessly, "I can't think of any reason why the jury would let me win the award, unless they want to prove that there is really a shady deal going on."
Hearing her so sure, An Jing stopped talking about it and instead asked about her first-class merit commendation ceremony in April.
"Is the time set?"
"Of course, it's on your birthday. I heard the presenter hasn't been decided yet. I don't know who it will be in the end."
"It doesn't matter who it is. Compared to that, I'm more concerned about the trophy. I never thought I could win this trophy before, not even in my dreams."
An Jing patted her gently and said, "Believe in yourself, you can do it."
At seven o'clock in the evening, the Silver Tripod Award ceremony was held as scheduled. Guan Miao turned it on as background music when she had nothing to do. Deng Ling next to her was telling her about the new script she had received recently.
"Your status in the industry has skyrocketed. Many of the veterans who used to think highly of themselves have handed you their books."
Deng Ling explained as she spoke, "After all, with you here, it's a major highlight of the promotion. But my advice is not to waste too much of this first-class achievement. If people see it too much, they will rebel."
Guan Miao nodded. "Sister Deng, I know what you mean. If everything goes well in June, I can take this opportunity to suspend my activities for a while and fade out of the public eye."
"It's good that you understand, but there's something I must tell you. If you suspend your work, I will definitely go and train new people. Otherwise, you can't let me blow the northwest wind all the time, right?
But don't worry, whenever you say you want to come back, I will definitely put you first."
"Don't worry, Sister Deng. I understand. We've been through so much together, how could I not worry about you?"
The two looked at each other and laughed, "Okay, don't worry, I'm only 28 this year. Even if I really don't film in the future, I still have a lot of things to do. My life has just begun."
The award ceremony was already showing clips of the nominees for Best Supporting Actress. "Next up is Best Supporting Actress. Who do you think will win?"
"I think Lin Zhi deserves this award. She acted so well. I couldn't help crying when I saw her death the third time I watched it."
"I think it might be Qin Xue. Her acting is pretty good, and the subject matter of 'Dark Fire' is rather obscure. Maybe the judges will give the award to her because they want to inspire a niche audience."
Guan Miao thought for a moment and said, "'Dark Fire' seems to have won the Best Screenplay Award. If it encourages niche works, I think it's enough."
"Then we'll see the results."
Just as the two of them finished their discussion, the presenter opened his cue card and, after a few fake gestures, announced, "The winner of this year's Silver Tripod Award for Best Supporting Actress is Qin Xue."
Qin Xue's face appeared on the big screen at the right time, and the golden light illuminated her path.
"Let's invite Qin Xue to the stage to receive the award."
When he saw Qin Xue going on stage to give her acceptance speech, Guan Miao seemed to come back to his senses, with a look of regret on his face, "What a pity, I'm just a runner-up."
Deng Ling smiled and said to her, "It's not a pity. The nomination is a recognition, and there's only one trophy, so there will always be someone to run with you. Well, the award ceremony is over, so I'll be leaving now. I still have to go and appease your fans."
"Well, please trouble Sister Deng Ling."
Although Guan Miao's fans were a little disappointed, Deng Ling had already revealed in the fan group that Guan Miao would not win the award, so everyone's emotions were still under control.
Two days later, at around 8:40 in the evening, Guan Miao and San San were the only ones left in the bright room.
[I'll be leaving soon.]
Guan Miao nodded without saying anything.
[Is there anything else you want to tell me?]
Still shaking his head.
Time passed minute by minute, and Guan Miao remained silent.
After the last five minutes, she suddenly asked, "San San, when you go back, will you still remember me?"
[Will you remember me?]
"Of course," she said without hesitation, "The honor and wealth I have now are basically all because of you. You are the greatest benefactor in my life. I will always remember you."
Listening to her somewhat childish words, San San chuckled and said, "I see. I'll remember you too. If I have the chance in the future, I'll come to see you."
"good."
But both of them knew that this day might never come.
"bite."
The alarm clock rang, and San San nimbly jumped onto the windowsill. "Guan Miao, I'm leaving."
Guan Miao had a smile on his face, not looking sad at all. "I understand. Be careful on the road. Don't get lost again like last time. It's not always possible to meet someone as kind-hearted as me."
[I see, you are becoming more and more narcissistic.]
"I have the capital to be narcissistic."
After the man and the cat chatted and laughed for a while, three minutes had passed.
San San put away his smile and said, "Okay, I really should go."
"Well, I'll watch you go, and I'll see the world for you."
[Guan Miao, goodbye.]
"goodbye."
As soon as she finished speaking, San San jumped off the windowsill and turned into a ray of light and flew straight into the sky.
In the dark starry sky, no lights of various colors can conceal its brilliance, and this light gradually dims with distance until no trace can be seen anymore.
"The first one left."
Guan Miao regained his composure and slowly closed the window, but his gaze fell on the holy wood flowers by the window. The soft petals brushed against the back of his hand very gently.
"I'm fine," she said, lightly touching the emerald green branches with her index finger. "After signing the contract, I knew San San wouldn't be able to stay with me forever. Although it was a little beyond my expectations, I wasn't completely unprepared.
Besides, you are here, I will take good care of you."
After closing the window, she walked to the door and opened it. Sure enough, An Jing and others were still guarding. "San San has left. Everyone should go back."
An Jing stepped forward and said, "It's still early, do you want me to play games with you?"
"OK."
Although she is not alone, she still feels a little disappointed. It may not be a bad thing to have someone accompany her at this time.
Chi Yi and others were relieved to see that Guan Miao's emotions were still under control, and they all found excuses to leave.
After they left, An Jing said, "Sister Chi Yi and Sister Yu Ning are actually very worried about you."
"I know, but I'm really fine. Sansan wasn't from this world to begin with, and he'll be gone sooner or later. I was just wondering what to do with the cat stuff he left behind. It would be a shame to throw it away, but it's not very convenient to give it away."
"Do you want to get another one?"
Guan Miao took out a game console from under the TV cabinet and said, "I don't know, but if I were to raise one, I would definitely raise a golden tabby."
"Don't you want to raise a white cat that looks like San San?"
"Of course not," Guan Miao found the cassette and put it into the machine and said, "San San is San San, and the kitten is the kitten. Every kitten is unique. I miss San San now, so I found a cat that looks very similar to it to play the role.
What if I don't like San San anymore in the future? I wonder if the cat will get angry? The kitten is innocent. If I want to raise a cat, of course I want to raise one I like."
"Okay, then would you like me to keep an eye out for cats that need adoption?"
She nodded, "Sure. Come on, the games are all set."
