Chapter 42 Chapter 42 I'm here to get my things back
Xia Nuan picked up her phone and opened the image search app, aiming at the apricot umbrella, and the result quickly popped up.
The brand of the umbrella is engraved at the bottom of the umbrella handle, and this type of umbrella first appeared fifteen years ago, when she had just entered high school.
So that boy who was soaked in the rain and looked so pitiful at that time was Ye Li?!
She actually never forgot this incident. After all, she recorded it in her diary. And every time she thought of her kind act, Xia Nuan couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.
During the National Day holiday that year, the teacher assigned us to write an essay about a story that happened to us. Xia Nuan still remembered giving an umbrella to a strange boy in the rain, and she wrote about it in her essay.
But it was not until just now that she realized that the man was Ye Li. But it was not Xia Nuan's fault that she did not associate the boy with Ye Li. It was raining so hard at the time that she did not even look at the boy's face. She stuffed the umbrella into his hand and left to find her parents.
The corners of Xia Nuan's lips twitched. So, this was some kind of bloody plot from the novel "Bai Yueguang". Ye Li's personality was extreme, no wonder he was still so obsessed with her.
However, the umbrella has been replaced, which means that Ye Li has let it go.
Thinking of the look in his eyes before he left a few days ago, Xia Nuan felt she had guessed the truth. She breathed a sigh of relief, her cheeks relaxing, a faint smile in her eyes as she put the umbrella in her locker.
Two days later, at 8:30 in the morning, in the CCTV interview recording hall.
Lin Dayong dropped the person off, exchanged a few words with the staff, and then left. Because Xiao Wang was on vacation, the person with Xia Nuan was Xiao Li, who had twisted his foot and was unable to drive due to swelling.
It is said that he himself said that the doctor who treated him was very skilled. In less than three days, his ankle, which had been swollen like a big white radish, instantly returned to normal.
After hearing his explanation, Xia Nuan stared at him for a while with a half-smile on her face, until Xiao Li's scalp went numb. Then she slowly looked away, indicating that she believed his explanation.
This time, she was interviewed by an old acquaintance of Xia Nuan's, the highly intelligent and intelligent host Zhan Ping. She remained elegant, calm, graceful, and approachable. However, this time, she wasn't wearing her typical pink suit, but a simple white cardigan and black trousers.
The interview lasted about an hour, but the final film was probably only about forty minutes long.
It is indeed comfortable to talk to people with high emotional intelligence. After the interview, Xia Nuan couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of her heart again.
Before leaving, Zhan Ping stopped Xia Nuan and said, "Teacher Xia, can you sign an autograph for me? My brother and I like you very much."
Xia Nuan stopped and said, "Of course."
Xia Nuan took the pen and photos handed to her by Zhan Ping with both hands. There were at least five or six photos, and none of them were photos she had ever seen before. A hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
From these photos, it seems that Zhan Ping’s younger brother likes her very much. I wonder how old he is. If he is not in college yet, the blessing message I write to him can be about his studies.
Xia Nuan thought so and looked at Zhan Ping, "What's your brother's name?"
When Zhan Ping said this, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "He Jian, you should have seen him."
That name surprised Xia Nuan. She did know He Jian. She had worked with this boy, who was four or five years younger than her, on a TV series a few years ago.
The two didn't have much contact after that, but I didn't expect that this was Zhan Ping's younger brother.
As if noticing Xia Nuan's surprise, Zhan Ping explained, "This is my cousin. He heard the day before yesterday that Teacher Xia, you were going to participate in my talk show, so he specifically asked me for this. He even personally ran to my house to deliver these photos. These are all his treasures. He really likes Teacher Xia."
Zhan Ping said a few good words for her cousin.
After signing, Xia Nuan handed the photo to Zhan Ping with both hands, "Thank you for his love for it, I'm very happy. I hope I'll have the opportunity to work with He Jian again in the future. I remember he is a very talented actor."
For Xia Nuan, this incident was just a small episode in life, but it was different for He Jian.
That night, when Zhan Ping handed Xia Nuan's autograph to He Jian, his excitement and excitement almost overflowed from his eyes.
"Sister, did Xia Nuan really say that? Oh my god, I didn't expect that she really still remembered me."
Zhan Ping looked at him with disdain, his excitement nearly reaching the top of the wall, and couldn't help but hold her forehead. As far as she knew, Xia Nuan had always been very supportive of the younger generation and had a high emotional intelligence. However, to avoid disturbing her cousin's interest, Zhan Ping didn't say these words out loud.
Zhan Ping knew that He Jian liked Xia Nuan. At first, she thought that He Jian's love was just the kind of love that ordinary idols have for their idols.
But something that happened a while ago changed her mind. She realized just how obsessed this guy was with Xia Nuan. Her aunt had always been very controlling. He Jian had a fight with her a while ago and had been traveling around the world for months. Her aunt kept calling and texting, but this guy simply turned off his phone and changed to a new number. If he hadn't regularly reported back home, her aunt would have definitely called the police and reported him missing.
That is, last week, the news of Xia Nuan winning the award came out, and the next day this guy ran to Hong Kong. At that time, he excitedly posted photos on his circle of friends, but the photos directly exposed his whereabouts, and he was immediately found and arrested by his aunt.
It was also on that day that Zhan Ping suddenly discovered that the places her cousin traveled to were all attractions that Xia Nuan had photographed or had visited herself.
A few days ago, when He Jian came to give her a photo and asked her to sign it, Zhan Ping specifically asked him about this. "You are an actor in the industry yourself. If you wanted to, you should have more opportunities to interact with Xia Nuan than me. Why don't you take the initiative to ask her for an autograph?"
He Jian didn't answer. Xia Nuan was a triple-Award-winning actress, while he was just a nobody. Although they had worked together before, the gap between them now was as vast as the difference between heaven and earth.
Although it's not nice to say this, my cousin has been in the entertainment industry for four years. Apart from the TV series he collaborated with Xia Nuan that made him a little famous, I don't know what happened afterwards, he just seemed to be idling around. He would take on scripts and roles he liked, and travel if there were no scripts. In recent years, he has traveled all over the world.
However, perhaps because of his attitude of just getting by, his agent doesn't seem to care much about him, and many scripts are left over by others and then given to him to read.
"I heard from my aunt that she seems to be planning to let you go abroad to get a master's degree in finance."
He Jian carefully put the photos into his clothes and waved his hand. "Sister Ping, please stop talking. I don't plan to study in the United States. Don't listen to my mom's nonsense. I won't go."
Zhan Ping smiled but said nothing. "If you don't make a name for yourself in this circle, your aunt will definitely do that. You know her personality."
He Jian curled his lips and said nothing. In high school, he had ignored his family's arrangements and insisted on getting into the film academy. He was admitted, and he studied hard for four years. After graduation, he even signed with a good company and received some good resources at the beginning.
But later on, his interest in acting faded a lot. Now thinking about it, the drama he filmed with Xia Nuan in his senior year was the year when he was most passionate about acting.
He is different from those who truly love acting. He Jian thought of the light in Xia Nuan's eyes when she talked to him about acting, and he felt more and more that the profession of actor was not suitable for him.
——
After Xia Nuan knew that He Jian was Zhan Ping's cousin, she searched for the name as soon as she got home.
She still remembered He Jian. At that time, He Jian seemed to be a senior in college. He acted with her in a modern workplace drama for women. Although he was the male lead, he had fewer scenes than the fourth female lead. Therefore, not many male actors were willing to take the role, and it finally fell to He Jian.
However, Xia Nuan remembered that although He Jian's acting skills were immature at the beginning, they were constantly improving. There was actually a huge gap between the first scene and the last one.
Xia Nuan stared at the introduction of He Jian on Baidu Encyclopedia. In the past three years, he had only filmed three scripts, and all of them were supporting roles. Xia Nuan raised an eyebrow and clicked on the most recent drama that He Jian had aired.
The acting is not bad.
Xia Nuan and He Jian have acted in a movie together, so they naturally know what he actually looks like. He has excellent bone structure, clean and neat looks, and is very handsome. He is the type of young actor that is rare nowadays.
This superiority is naturally reflected in the drama he starred in, and He Jian's acting skills are not bad.
Xia Nuan's eyes lit up, maybe she could recruit him to her own personal studio.
The ringing of the phone suddenly interrupted Xia Nuan's thoughts. She glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Ye Li.
Xia Nuan looked at the phone hesitantly, then pressed the answer button.
"I hope I didn't disturb you by calling you suddenly." Ye Li's voice on the other end of the phone was low and mellow with a slight smile, and Xia Nuan's ears felt a little numb.
She held the phone away from her ear and turned on speakerphone. "No, that's not the case. Is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"Are you home now?"
Xia Nuan tilted her head hesitantly, her brows slightly furrowed. "That's right, but what exactly is going on?"
Her tone was obviously a little worse than at the beginning, but she still maintained the necessary politeness.
Ye Li tapped the steering wheel with his left hand and looked at a corner of the underground parking lot where Xia Nuan's car was parked.
He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes narrowed in pleasure, "I'm here to get my things back."
What? This person is now speaking half-words and unclearly. Xia Nuan's temper is obviously a little bit irritated. When facing Ye Li, she is always easily aroused by bad emotions.
Xia Nuan's brain was confused for a moment, perhaps less than a second, and she instantly understood what Ye Li was talking about.
"That umbrella?" "My umbrella."
Speaking out and being silent at the same time.
Xia Nuan coughed lightly, breaking the sudden silence. "I'm at home now, but I might not be home soon. How about this, you send me your address and I'll rush it to your city."
"Maybe it doesn't have to be so troublesome. I'm in the basement parking lot of your community right now." Ye Li said this very calmly, but the slightly rising ending tone revealed his mood at the moment.
After the incident a few days ago, the community where Xia Nuan lived implemented a stricter entry and exit management system.
So when Xia Nuan heard Ye Li's whereabouts, her first reaction was that it was impossible. Then, thinking of this person's identity, she snorted coldly and realized that nothing was impossible.
In this case, Xia Nuan thought about sending the umbrella down directly, but considering that the last time the paparazzi took pictures was in the basement, Xia Nuan gave up the idea.
"Then come up, take the umbrella and leave." After saying this, Xia Nuan hung up the phone.
As for whether Ye Li knew the exact location of her home, God, could he not know? How could it be possible!
Sure enough, ten minutes later, a familiar face appeared on the surveillance camera.

The author has something to say: I wonder if anyone still remembers He Jian. Here’s a reminder: He first appeared in Chapter 28.
