Chapter 317 Earrings

The style of the film suddenly changes from the sad, dreamy love tragedy of youth to the reality of the world. Even someone like Su Yun, who has experienced the impact of the internet era, was almost led to stumble and fall.

But to be honest, no matter what era it is, if you want to mix in this complex circle, you can't go far as long as you maintain the bottom line of your moral character as a vicious and ambitious person like Zha Lan who can maximize and exploit his own advantages.

The most typical example of this kind is probably Bourne, whose fate was not changed by her: a beauty born in poverty and with no one to rely on will only be let down, and will only miss opportunities again and again because of various rules and unspoken rules, and finally will be gone like a shooting star, leaving those in later generations who were amazed by her and then searched for her to sigh deeply with dissatisfaction.

The next day, when the agreed car arrived outside the iron gate, Su Yun, carrying her luggage, was escorted out the door by a man and a group of dogs.

Originally, Zha Lan wanted to drive her there himself, but Su Yun sternly refused: it was several hours away from here to the airport, and it would take a whole day to go there and back. Zha Lan received a call inviting her to a role last night, and if he asked him to drive her there, he might not have the energy to go to the interview the next day.

Therefore, Su Yun asked him to book a taxi and planned to travel alone - she happened to have something urgent to do and had to stop in New York before returning to Hong Kong.

He waved his hand to drive the group of dogs back, but the silly mixed-breed golden retriever still clung to Su Yun's feet and howled, refusing to leave, as if it knew that Su Yun would be away for a long time, and thus a sense of sadness emanated from its whole body.

Su Yun touched its head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I will definitely come back to see you in the future. Don't be like this, okay?"

The golden retriever whimpered twice again, slowly stood up, took two steps back to Zha Lan's feet, and continued to lie there, as if he had to see Su Yun leave before he could go home.

Dogs are more emotional than humans...

Su Yun raised her head and looked at Zha Lan meaningfully: "Are you sure you don't have anything to say to me?"

Zha Lan looked at her and sighed: "You are much luckier than I was back then, or you may be more unfortunate, but what will happen in the future is entirely in your own hands."

"I just want you to understand that no matter what path you take in the future, try not to make the people who love you cry, and try not to regret it yourself." After he said these words, he lowered his voice again, "Are you sure you really have something to transfer to New York, and are not still thinking about continuing to escape?"

"Of course, I won't run away anymore." Su Yun laughed, then used her hand to smooth her long hair that was messed up by the wind, looked back at him and said, "Of course I want to walk a path that I won't regret, but there are too many temptations in the world, and I haven't analyzed them clearly yet."

"My beautiful lady, you are the one who chooses people." Zha Lan chuckled, "If you can't make a choice for the time being, don't force yourself, just let it go."

“Whether you are walking alone or working with others, you have to remember to follow your own heart and not let yourself suffer any grievances or harm.”

"I hope you can continue on as I hope you can - only in this way will our meeting not be in vain."

Su Yun, who was used to bickering with him, was a little uncomfortable with such clear praise and love: "You suddenly acted like this, and I don't know what to do..."

That's why she likes to be with mature people. When she is with such people who can use their life experience to guide the younger generation and lend a helping hand when the younger generation is confused, no matter how naughty she is, she will be taken care of meticulously and comprehensively.

Especially when the person who takes care of you has a capricious personality, but because of his love for you, he makes everything he does have warmth...which makes people feel infinite warmth in their hearts.

Moreover, you don’t have to witness the tug-of-war, suspicion, and testing that people of the same age have to go through when they get along with each other, nor do you have to compromise yourself to a certain extent in order to achieve a more harmonious situation.

As Su Yun sighed in his heart, he took out a small velvet box and said, "A farewell gift."

"Wow, I'm really a little embarrassed about this..." After eating and drinking for free and even taking advantage of the dog, Zha Lan even prepared a parting gift for him when he was leaving. For a few seconds, Su Yun really felt that he needed to change the attitude between the two of them in the future...

While thinking this, Su Yun opened the box.

What caught her eye was the gold-thread earrings on display in the window of a handmade jewelry store as they walked hand in hand down the street that night.

The reason they were called “display items” was because the earrings actually had a small sign next to them that read “display items, not for sale.” Otherwise, she wouldn’t have just stared at them for so long outside instead of rushing into the store and buying them like she usually did.

The owners of these small handmade shops usually have very strong personalities. They are both difficult to talk to and easy to talk to. However, it would probably take a lot of time and effort to get them to change their original intentions.

At that time, it was inconvenient for her to be taken with Zha Lan, so she thought about waiting until the next time she came here to find a way to get it...

Unexpectedly, Jim's matter only delayed her for a day and a night. When she returned to the shop again, she could no longer see the gold wire earrings that made her fall in love with them at first sight.

I walked in with a glimmer of hope and asked the owner if he hadn't put it on display - unfortunately, the owner, who was working on a handicraft, shook his head and said it had been sold last night.

But she really wanted that earring, so she first asked the owner if he could make a replica. After the owner said that it was a sudden inspiration and could not be reproduced, she continued to ask the owner about the buyer.

The shop owner had a typical craftsman-like alternative personality. Not only did he not reveal any information about the buyer, he also kept the transaction method secret, leaving Su Yun no chance to take advantage of any loopholes.

If it weren't for the gentle words of comfort from the handsome young man Jim, and the mysteries in her heart, Su Yun would probably have been depressed for a while.

What was surprising was that after searching around for so long, the thing she had been longing for actually appeared before her so cleverly.

"It seems that you really like it." Seeing Su Yun's surprised expression, Zha Lan nodded somewhat proudly.

"Thank you!" Su Yun thanked him excitedly, and then couldn't help asking, "How could you ..."

"I saw you looking at it for a long time that night...it's rare." Zha Lan said thoughtfully.

Most beauties need to accessorize themselves to reach the next level, and this is the case with her: her home is filled with hair accessories, earrings, tie buckles, brooches, watches and other accessories, not to mention the meticulous makeup she maintains all the time.

As for Su Yun, she is aware of this when filming a movie, and she is also conscious of wearing light makeup in her daily life.

But the problem is, when it comes to accessories, she is simply driving people crazy!

Apart from the odd accessories she wore when filming Leon: The Professional, she has been very plain in her appearance since then, unless she attends any formal events. This is because Su Yun always seems to forget that she is actually a pretty girl who looks extremely gentle. She rolls up her sleeves and joins the workers. She is more skilled than many veteran workers in using various tools...

With a wrench in the left hand and a screwdriver in the right hand, and the clinking of tools being changed from time to time, and a whirring fan fighting three hundred rounds of years of dust, even the most durable ornaments are not made in this way.

The only piece of jewelry that Su Yun has been seen wearing on a daily basis is probably the handmade ring given to her by that silly-looking boy named Tom. I don’t know if Su Yun truly loves him, or if she doesn’t mind if this ugly thing gets bumped and broken.

However, to his surprise, Su Yun did not like the hair accessories, necklaces or bracelets that most people like, but fell in love at first sight with the earrings that passed by her.

Zha Lan, who occasionally pays attention to Su Yun's affairs, also knows that Su Yun only had her ears pierced when she was filming the movie "The Lost Tomb" and had to do the complicated and gorgeous Chinese ancient costume styling.

In the past, Su Yun basically filmed modern dramas, so she didn't need to wear earrings. However, the miscellaneous earrings in "Leon: The Professional" were decorative and clip-on types.

I don't know why she suddenly fell in love with earrings, whether it was because she thought it would be pointless not to wear them since she had pierced ears, or whether it was just her personal preference.

"I don't really like earrings..." Su Yun shook her head, "They are not like necklaces, bracelets or rings, which are harmless decorations to the human body."

"On the contrary, if you want to wear earrings, you have to endure the pain of piercing your flesh and blood." Thinking of the pain when getting your ears pierced, although it is within the normal tolerance of adults, Su Yun still doesn't like this kind of special jewelry that requires causing damage to oneself.

"When pain makes people more beautiful, many people will choose to accept it." Zha Lan said softly.

"A helpless choice." Su Yun sighed, and then carefully put the small box containing the earrings into the buckle pocket of her windbreaker.

"No matter what, I'm still happy that you have the ability to become obsessed with jewelry." Seeing Su Yun carefully placing the box close to her body, Zha Lan couldn't help but show a gratified expression on her face, "You and I are both miracles of genetic lottery, please don't waste the gift of God to you."

It could be heard that Zha Lan's hidden meaning was that she should not always be so rough with all kinds of tools and become a workaholic who wasted resources...So, Su Yun's cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked quite shy like a young girl who had just developed a sense of beauty and was taught by her elders how to dress up.

"I had dinner with the shop owner to get the qualification to buy..." Sometimes, some people have already got full marks, but they still want to take one more step into the door of failure. "Let me tell you, although the French don't like me very much, they still can't resist my charm."

Shocked by Zha Lan's smug narcissism, Su Yun suddenly felt that all her previous emotions and anxieties had disappeared at this moment.

"Goodbye." After finally recovering, Su Yunchong waved to him as a final farewell.

He didn't reply, but just waved gently at Su Yun.

The car started up and then started driving backwards, taking the scenery behind with it. When Su Yun looked back, the figure of the mottled dog lying at her feet made her feel suddenly lonely amidst the lush and vibrant green.

It was as if all the warm sunshine and warmth in the world had forgotten his existence, leaving him alone behind in the time of sudden change from warm to cold.

After confirming that she would never see Zha Lan again, Su Yun quickly took out her mobile phone and called Steve Gary Wozniak, who was currently in charge of research and development at Apple: "Hello, Steve? It's me, Mary. I finally thought of a way to wrap the wires for a handheld computer. This method should be able to control the size to the maximum extent. Yes, I'll fly over with a reference sample right away..."

That’s right, what attracted her was not the earrings’ meaning as jewelry, but the ingenious way the wire was wound around them!

With her knowledge that transcends her time as a foundation, the development of computer technology in this world seems to have taken fewer detours than the original world. Overall, it is at least five or six years ahead of the original world...

"I want to see the birth of a handheld computer before the end of next year!"

“This will be a revolutionary change!”

Compared to complicated and confusing emotions, it is indeed more interesting to build a career and make money...
