Chapter 69
Ranlong and Yuan Chengyin were both angry with each other for some unknown reason, and neither of them wanted to be the first to say the answer that was about to come out.
Yao Ling lost her patience and spoke first: "Is it her past? Not only you, but even her fans can't dig it out."
Ranlong rolled her eyes at Yuan Chengyin, then turned to Yao Ling and nodded, "Yes. What she's always avoided talking about is her past, the environment she grew up in, and her family. In short, it's about the time before she appeared in the public eye."
It is actually not common to find young people who come to Beijing to act in movies who are so poor that they can’t even afford a down jacket for the winter.
Most people are simply too embarrassed to tell their families that they are having a hard time, or their families do not support them in taking this path.
I was really starving because I couldn't make ends meet. I would make a phone call home and ask for some money, or find a way out that I had no choice but to accept.
As for Qiu An, there was nothing behind her.
I don’t even have a home to go back to for the New Year.
After the three of them discussed it for a while, Yao Ling suddenly patted Ran Long's shoulder and suggested, "How about this? I'll send you to get Qiu An drunk. I'll make her tell the truth and then we can get some information out of her."
Ranlong and Yaoling agreed immediately: "Good idea!"
Only Yuan Chengyin asked worriedly, "Can you drink as much as she can?"
“Hmm…”
Although Ranlong often entertained guests at social events after returning to Beiji and was known for his drinking capacity, it was clear that he probably could not drink as much as Qiu An, who was doing well in the circle and had become a boss.
But she still had confidence: "Who says I can't drink her down just because I can't beat her? If I can't resist her head-on, can't I outsmart her?"
This was the only way out, so Yuan Chengyin had no choice but to nod. "That's true. Do you need me to help you set up a party? Just find Sister Wang and her group of people who love to drink. When they try to get you drunk, Qiu An will definitely help you block the drink. Just let her drink."
After making a plan, Yuan Chengyin first contacted Qiu An to discuss the schedule, but as expected, Qiu An refused.
"Oh, I forgot to mention that Xiaoran will be here too."
"Okay, I'll go then."
Yuan Chengyin rolled his eyes and called Sister Wang and the others, and quickly set up a trap for Ranlong.
Sister Wang really thought that they were in the mood for a party, and even Qiu An, who rarely showed up after they got to know each other, wanted to come. She happily took them to a private entertainment club and enthusiastically opened a few bottles of her private collection of fine wines.
In order to stay sober and avoid being forced to drink, Yuan Chengyin stood up everyone on the pretext of a last-minute deadline, but in fact he was anxiously waiting at home.
Because her daughter Yao Ling was worried that Ran Long couldn't handle it alone, she went along with him.
As it turned out, Yao Ling's worries were not unnecessary.
Near midnight, Yuan Chengyin's cell phone finally rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Qiu An's number. Her eyes suddenly darkened.
"crooked……"
"You're still awake, right? Come down and pick up Yao Ling."
Yuan Chengyin rushed downstairs without even changing his slippers, and sure enough, he saw two drunkards in the back seat, who were unconscious and whispering to each other with their arms around each other's shoulders. One was Yao Ling, and the other was of course Ran Long.
Qiu An's face looked bad.
It seemed like she was possessive, and she felt unhappy because someone was too close to her.
There was a slight smell of alcohol on Qiu An, but he didn't seem drunk yet.
The plan of these two people to make Qiu An "tell the truth after drinking" has most likely failed.
Under Qiu Ansusu's fierce gaze, Yuan Chengyin did not dare to delay. She leaned half of her body into the car and tried several times but failed to pull the two drunkards apart.
Yuan Chengyin had no choice but to change his approach and coax her gently: "Yao Ling, Yao Ling, we're home. Come down and come home with me, okay?"
Ran Long saw an uninvited guest trying to take Yao Ling away, so he pushed the person's face and said drunkenly, "Huh? Who are you? Why do you want my good wingman to go home with you?"
Yuan Chengyin:?
"Shh!" Yao Ling suddenly covered Ran Long's mouth, "Be quiet, Qiu An is still here."
"Oh, hey, Qiu An is still here."
Yuan Chengyin: ...
After coaxing Yao Ling for a while, she finally let go of Ran Long's hand. Her little hand waved in the air as if it couldn't find a fulcrum. Yuan Chengyin guided her and let her hang on his waist.
Seeing that Yao Ling was quite drunk, Yuan Chengyin felt a little distressed and planned to cancel the mission tonight. At worst, he could just find a different way to find out next time.
Just as he was about to take Yao Ling with him to say goodbye to Qiu An, Yao Ling, who was on his waist, suddenly raised her voice and said, "It's so late. Your home is not close to here, right? I wonder where the driver sister lives? It will be dawn when she gets home from get off work, right?"
"Hey! I'm old and less sleepy, so don't worry about me!" The driver was so happy when she was called "sister" that she shouted loudly, her tone sounding like floating on the clouds.
Yao Ling said again: "Oh, this won't do. You have to rest when you need to. Qiu An'an, why don't you stay with me at A Yin's house tonight? Her house is quite big..."
"Why are you calling me that? You're not allowed to call me Qiu Anan! You're not allowed to call me that!"
Before Yao Ling finished her words, Ranlong rushed out of the car, looking like he was ready to fight her.
Yuan Chengyin was startled and turned sideways to protect Yao Ling; Qiu An grabbed Ran Long, who was about to hit the ground with her head, and pulled her into his arms.
The two sober people looked at each other and smiled.
Just when she was feeling helpless, someone suddenly pinched the flesh on Yuan Chengyin's waist. The pinch was not gentle or hard, and she gasped in pain.
She found the source of the power and discovered that the one causing trouble was Yao Ling who was hugging her.
Yuan Chengyin lowered her head and met a sly smile. She then realized that Yao Ling was pretending to be drunk and was reminding her not to miss this opportunity.
"Well... Yao Ling is right. It's not safe for you to be outside this late. You should stay at my house for one night. There's room for everyone."
Qiu An was persuaded. Just when she was about to nod in agreement, Ranlong in her arms suddenly came back to life and shouted, "No! I want to go home, take a shower, and sleep! I'm in my own bed!"
Yuan Chengyin and Yao Ling's veins bulged and their fists became stiff.
Qiu An said softly, "Then let's do as Xiao Ran says."
Fortunately, Ranlong found a way out: "But the car ride back was so uncomfortable. I felt like vomiting."
Seeing this opportunity coming up, Yuan Chengyin quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, it's been a bumpy ride and it's been tough. You should stay here with me."
Ranlong was still hesitant when Yuan Chengyin leaned over to warn her, "Wake up! When did you...become so particular about your bed?!"
Ranlong suddenly realized, and said with a chuckle: "That's right, I don't recognize my bed."
Everyone: ...
The driver lady refused to go upstairs no matter what, so Qiu An had to let her go home first.
The four of them walked upstairs. Yao Ling was clearly pretending to be drunk, but she was playing tricks by putting all her weight on Yuan Chengyin. Yuan Chengyin didn't dare to confront her, so he just had to endure it. Even without having to climb the stairs, she was already sweating from exhaustion.
Turning around, she saw Qiu An carrying Ran Long, who was a little bigger than her and was so drunk that he could hardly stand. He remained calm and collected.
Feeling Yuan Chengyin's gaze, Qiu An glanced over and said with disdain, "Director Yuan is not feeling well."
Yuan Chengyin was stifled and didn't want to respond, but Yao Ling on her waist suddenly trembled slightly, obviously hearing Qiu An's words mocking her.
She defended herself: "I think it's okay..."
He took three breaths to finish this short sentence, and Qiu An and Yao Ling laughed even more happily.
Yuan Chengyin fell silent, breathing heavily. She decided not to argue with the two of them, and weighed the weight of the person hanging on her waist. This heavy weight was trust, and she was so happy that she refused to let go, no matter how tired she was.
The four of them entered the house and the sensor light in the entrance came on. Qiu An looked at Ran Long, who had her eyes closed, in the light and decided to let her go to bed first.
"Where is the guest room? I'll take Xiao Ran to sleep."
"It's the room on the far right. The sheets and quilt... Yao Ling has slept in it before, do you mind?"
Qiu An looked at the two of them meaningfully, shook his head, turned around and walked inside with Ranlong.
The arm around her waist tightened a little. Yao Ling raised her head, and Yuan Chengyin saw that her eyes were hazy and her cheeks were flushed. It seemed that she had drunk a lot, but not to the point of forgetting her business.
Yao Ling asked her quietly, "Hasn't she been to your house? Do you know where the guest room is?"
Yuan Chengyin shook his head: "No..."
"Or has she never slept in the guest room since she came here?"
"What are you talking about?"
Yuan Chengyin knew she was joking with him, and pinched her face lovingly.
She noticed that Yao Ling's eyes were different from before, as if she had shown some signs of relaxation. Her lips parted slightly, and she looked up at her, her eyes filled with admiration and a hint of expectation.
Her throat was pounding. Yuan Chengyin straightened her body and lowered his head.
"It's still early! I don't want to sleep! I still have things to do! Very important things!"
Ranlong's howl was like an arrow shot from a full bow, piercing through the space between the two of them with a few swishes.
Yao Ling blinked his eyes and looked away like a lost lamb that was suddenly awakened.
From then on, Yuan Chengyin and Ranlong became sworn enemies.
It turned out that Ranlong was still thinking about Qiu An. Although she couldn't remember the details, she remembered it was very important. No matter how Qiu An tried to coax her, she refused to go to bed until the task was completed.
Yuan Chengyin put Yao Ling on the sofa and called Qiu An over: "Come sit with us. When she's tired and has had enough fun, she'll fall asleep on her own."
"You are the puppy, humph!"
Hearing the hidden meaning in Yuan Chengyin's words, Ranlong bit his upper lip with his lower teeth, made a face and glared at Yuan Chengyin angrily.
Yuan Chengyin was not happy with this. Thinking of the kiss he had just missed, he became furious and glared back at her without giving in.
Qiu An looked at the two people who were on edge and couldn't help laughing. He scratched Ran Long's nose and said, "Okay, I didn't treat you like a puppy. Don't be angry."
"Um……"
After listening to Qiu An's words, Ranlong pretended to think about it. After a while, he leaned close to her ear and whispered:
"But if it's you, I can, I can be your puppy."
