After solving the case of the Snow Woman's Corpse, I spent a very harmonious December.

I went to class two days a week, drank milk tea with classmate Le, exchanged feelings (classmate Li never paid attention to her again, thank God), went home to write, walked the dog in the evening, and had a midnight snack.

By Christmas, the first chapter of Devil 3 had been written.

The Knight gained two kilograms and became more and more majestic.

The movie version of "Rose Gold" was being edited quickly, intending to catch up with Valentine's Day in 22 years, and the TV series "Devil Doctor 2" had been sent for review and was also ready to be released during the Spring Festival.

During this period, I went with Jiang Baiyan to watch the movie he had shot in Ice City before.

The scenery is extremely beautiful in the snow and ice. It is about a pair of forest rangers, father and son. He plays the son. The whole dialogue is no more than 50 lines, and most of the dialogue is through eye contact and facial expressions.

The idea is very profound, the shots are beautiful, but it looks too boring.

She fell asleep while watching it.

After the screening, Jiang Baiyan woke her up and stared at her silently. Jian

Jing was a little embarrassed and looked around: "It's over?"

There was no one around.

He was listless: "Half an hour after the opening, half of them left. After another half an hour, only five or six left. The rest fell asleep like you."

Jian Jing: "..." Landscape documentaries at least have narration, this is really boring.

She picked up the Coke and organized her words: "The film is still very good, but it's too profound."

Jiang Baiyan groaned, his head sank, and leaned on her shoulder: "I filmed for three months."

His tone was extremely sad.

"The acting is very good." Jian Jing praised from the bottom of her heart.

Although she fell asleep halfway, there were several shots that left a deep impression on her. The pine trees covered with ice and snow, the clear blue sky, and his pure and flawless face perfectly interpreted the heart of a child.

It is hard to imagine that the person with innocent eyes in the camera has a maze-like intestines in reality.

From this point of view, his acting skills are outstanding.

Jiang Baiyan said dryly, "Thank you." Jian Jing

quickly ended the topic: "Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal as a thank you for treating me to the movie."

"Actually, you're thinking that I should treat you." He muttered, "You wasted two hours for nothing." Jian

Jing said hypocritically, "That's not the case."

Jiang Baiyan's face was full of "I don't believe it."

However, although the movie was a bit boring and not to the public's taste, the ratings soared all the way, and it was even taken to foreign film festivals.

Many colleagues made sarcastic remarks, but Jiang Baiyan didn't take it to heart. He told Jian Jing, "It won't win an award. The emotional expression is too subtle, and it's hard for foreigners to understand."

In this regard, Jian Jing believed in his intuition and couldn't help but wonder, "What about Rose Gold?"

"I haven't seen the finished film yet." He winked slyly, "But I signed a profit-sharing contract."

When he mentioned it, Jian Jing remembered that when planning to shoot this movie, Jinwu's cash flow was very tight (at that time, President Kang was determined to win the Dream Building), and she didn't ask for copyright fees.

"Great, if this movie fails, you, me, and President Kang will lose money together." She said.

Jiang Baiyan made a face: "Maybe you can get a lot of money."

"You seem very confident." Jian Jing glanced at him and asked casually, "So, what do you think after starring in this movie?"

Jiang Baiyan blinked and said with a smile: "Let's wait until we finish watching the movie."

Jian Jing looked at him and didn't ask any more questions.

Then, Christmas and New Year's Day passed in sunny weather.

Jian Jing received the New Year's Eve gift package from Jinwu - award-winning books of several major literary awards this year, a mini Christmas tree and a dozen Christmas socks, and a very beautiful snowflake crystal ball.

She put the glass ball on the desk, the Christmas tree on the windowsill, and then put the socks around the knight's neck, pretending it was a bow tie.

Knight: "Woof?"

"Cute." She rubbed the dog's head affectionately.

The Knight lay down with his head resting on the paws.

She took a selfie and uploaded it to Weibo, wishing readers a happy Christmas.

Then she received hundreds of requests for updates...

[My wife is writing, don't play with the dog, we are starving]

[Hungry, food]

[When will Devil 3 come out? ? ]

[When will Rose Gold be released? Don't make random adaptations, I'm so worried]

[Devil 2's plot will be out soon]

[I'm so worried that Teacher Jian will make enough money to stop writing QAQ]

[Buy a few more haute couture pieces and I'll have motivation! ]

Jian Jing silently closed the interface.

2021 has passed and entered 2022.

On the first day of the New Year, I slept in, played games, and walked the dog.

On the second day of the New Year, I slept in, watched TV series, and walked the dog.

On the third day of the New Year, I slept in, left the dog at my boss's house, and packed my luggage.

The wedding was held in a small town in Eastern Europe called Bana, which means "ice and snow disaster" in the local language.

Jane Jing checked the local weather and it was... snow, heavy snow, and blizzards.

She was completely dumbfounded.

Holding a wedding in the middle of winter, I thought it was some warm place like spring. Is there something wrong with the host family to hold a wedding in heavy snow? But on second thought, some places in Switzerland have snow all year round, but the scenery is unique. Maybe it's the same here.

I'd better pack more clothes to avoid freezing.

This time, it's another long-distance flight.

What was worse than the trip to Paris was that there was no airport near the town. They had to fly to the capital of the country first, and then transfer to the nearest airport. It must be said that the airport was extremely small, and a row of bungalows was considered an airport.

But that was not the end.

After more than ten hours of flight (another call for help), they met up with the groom's friend, who drove them to the town of Bana.

When we came out of the airport, the weather was fine, but the wind was a bit strong, blowing over us like slaps in the face.

Jian Jing was full of emotion, and she was shivering in her scarf.

"Hi!" A burly man in a bear shape strode forward and asked in not very standard English, "Are you Kang?"

Kang Mucheng nodded and shook hands with him.

The two sides introduced themselves to each other. Big Bear called himself "George", a very common foreign male name. He was a local in Bana Town and was employed by the Winter Castle. This time, he was responsible for picking up and dropping off the guests attending the wedding.

English is not the official language here, but George speaks it well, at least people can understand him: "Although Bana is a small place, the scenery is very, very, very beautiful. You won't regret coming here."

His big tongue and "very-very-very" tone are very funny, and Jian Jing can't help laughing.

But at this time, she still didn't take this unknown town of Bana seriously.

It's a European town, exotic and beautiful, so it should be pretty, but to say "very-very-very" is probably just self-praise.

She was very interested in the Winter Castle and asked, "You just said castle, is that kind of castle?"

"Oh-yeah-yeah," Xiong Ge answered in English with a strange accent, "It's that kind of castle, a place you girls would like. Speaking of which, Leo inherited his father's noble title, but unfortunately he is getting married soon."

He squinted at Jian Jing with a look of embarrassment.

Thanks to the movie "Love in Paris" (a love work produced by Morning Star, a story of Versailles between a Chinese woman and a European nobleman), Jian Jing was not interested in the nobles and even had a little disgust.

Therefore, her reaction was a bit lukewarm: "I don't need a prince to save me."

But Brother Xiong laughed and made a face: "Yes, beautiful lady, you have two." After a pause, he changed his words, "No, now it's three."

Such a compliment, Jian Jing couldn't help laughing.

Brother Xiong added: "But Leo is a good boy, really, I like him very much, he can be happy, I am really happy for him."

He was talkative and soon told the family background of the groom one by one.

Leo's last name is a bit difficult to pronounce, and the phonetic translation is Salviklutz. Because it is too difficult to remember, let's call it the Sal family.

They have a history of more than 300 years in the local area. They are earls who were once granted by the royal family of the country and own a large territory. But with the changes of history, the royal family that held real power became a vase royal family of constitutional monarchy, and the title only had symbolic meaning.

The territory was naturally gone.

Several decades ago, Leo's grandfather made a lot of money in business. He not only renovated the castle, but also bought a large piece of land, becoming the largest local real estate developer.

It is said that one-third of the land in Bana Town belongs to the Sar family, who are extremely rich.

The hospital, shopping malls, and nursing homes in the town were all funded and built by the Sar family, who can be called the uncrowned king of Bana Town.

Brother Xiong is good at chatting. After driving for four hours, Kang Mucheng and Si Yingjie couldn't stand the fatigue of the journey and fell asleep. However, Jian Jing became more and more energetic as he talked, and he completely took it as a source of material.

She supported him, and Brother Bear became even more excited. He originally planned to take them directly to Winter Castle, but changed his mind after they arrived in the town and strongly recommended them to try the best pizza there.

The plane arrived at about eight in the morning, and after several hours of driving, everyone was very hungry and agreed.

From the outside, the pizza shop was somewhat disappointing. The red tiles had faded and the sign was dull, but as soon as the thick door was opened, an amazing aroma came out.

Sausage, cheese, vegetables, and bread, the wonderful taste immediately awakened the taste buds of the three people.

Si Yingjie boasted: "I can eat one by myself."

Jian Jing immediately ordered: "I want a giant pizza."

"You must try the grape lemon wine that the boss personally mixed." Brother Xiong strongly recommended it.

Jian Jing followed suit: "Okay, three more glasses of lemon wine."

"It's great to be young. I can't wait to finish eating and go to sleep." Si Yingjie's back ached and he couldn't lift his spirits. "Mucheng, our old bones are really not going to work."

Kang Mucheng didn't say anything, picked up a glass of lemon wine sent by the boss, took a sip, and the cold air rushed to his head, and he finally sobered up a little.

At this time, the hot pizza was also freshly baked.

The four of them took a piece each and took a bite. The taste of cheese, side dishes and bread mixed in their mouths was fragrant and spicy, and their tongues suddenly felt hot.

"Cough." Kang Mucheng didn't eat spicy food, and he coughed non-stop after being bitten.

Jian Jing chuckled and quickly handed him water and tissues, asking, "Is there anything that's not spicy? Anything."

The boss poked his head out and asked, "Chicken noodles?"

"No spicy," Jian Jing emphasized.

The boss shook his head and went into the kitchen.

Kang Mucheng drank a few sips of ice water and finally suppressed the spicy taste. He said to Jian Jing, "You should eat less, it's too spicy."

"I'm fine." She took a big bite and even enjoyed the pain of the chili. Paired with cool and refreshing grape lemon wine, it is sweet and sour and delicious.

Enjoy.

"Ding Dong", the bell at the door rang, and three tightly wrapped people entered the store.

"Big Mac with extra cheese." The young man in the lead ordered the order familiarly, turned around, wiped his nose, "Uncle George, are you here too?"

"Luka." Brother Xiong greeted enthusiastically, "Why are you later than me? I remember your place is closer."

Luka said angrily: "Don't mention it, this lady insisted on going to the city to buy things, what can I do?"

"Smelly boy, this place is so remote, what's wrong with preparing more things?" The blonde woman who was traveling with him put her hands on her hips, full of momentum.

Luka was very angry and ignored her. He just asked Brother Bear: "Uncle George, is there room for more people in your car?"

"There are still two seats." Brother Bear asked, "What's wrong?"

A trace of gloom flashed across Luka's face: "The castle... I don't like that place, you know, it makes me feel uncomfortable."

The room suddenly became silent.
