Chapter 54 Suitable for Kissing
The pine aroma in the mouth is strong and hot, while the cedar flavor lingering at the tip of the nose is light and crisp...
The combination of cold and heat, attacking from both inside and outside, made Bai You feel as if his senses were completely out of balance.
He suppressed the panic brought about by this strange feeling, lowered his eyes, slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth, and quietly stepped back a few steps.
The carriage suddenly darkened, and the flickering flame in Meng Qingyan's palm suddenly went out.
Grayish-white smoke escaped from between their lips and teeth, and for a moment, it covered each other's eyes.
So Meng Qingyan fixed his eyes on those beautiful lips.
Bai You's lips are very light in color, but the corners of her lips are slightly upturned, and there is a very small lip bead in the middle, which is especially suitable for kissing.
When filming Building No. 8, he also abused his power for personal gain and wantonly ravaged these lips until they were as red as blood, like the most beautiful rose in bloom.
But it was only in the name of Zhong Ling, not Meng Qingyan.
Meng Qingyan slowly stepped back and leaned back to his own seat, leaving space for Bai You without making a sound.
He glanced sideways and saw Bai You taking another puff.
Bai You looks good in everything he does, even the way he smokes has an indescribable sexiness. Just by looking at him, Meng Qingyan's heart is filled with joy.
"How is it?" he asked.
Before Bai Youdu could fully savor the taste, he took another puff upon hearing this, and only evaluated it seriously after a moment.
"It's different from cigarettes. It's very mellow and has rich layers," Bai You thought for a moment, "It smells like pine and nuts."
As he was talking, he suddenly realized something and asked hurriedly, "How about you? Do you want one too?"
The signboard at the entrance of the community was already in sight. Meng Qingyan smiled and took one for himself, but he did not cut it open or light it. He just held it between his fingers and played with it.
Halfway through smoking a cigar, the car finally stopped in front of the gate.
Bai You was about to get off the car when Meng Qingyan reached out and grabbed his wrist.
Just for a moment, very brief, and it separates in an instant.
"Finish the smoke first," he said.
The entertainment industry is stressful, and there are actually a lot of celebrities who smoke.
However, in order to maintain their image, most people do not show it in public.
Thinking of those dangerous times when he was talking by looking at pictures, Bai You accepted Meng Qingyan's kindness.
After all, he is in his rising period, so it is better to have less trouble than more, so it is better to be more careful.
The carriage was very quiet and neither of them spoke. Bai You leaned back in his seat and slowly smoked the remaining half of his cigar before bending down to get off the car.
As he pushed the car door open, he turned back again.
"There are many cameras at the entrance of the community, so don't come down. I'll send Xiaoliang over later."
"Yeah." Meng Qingyan responded.
Uncle Liu drove a new car to pick him up today. He had not been registered at Baiyou's place, so it was indeed not very convenient to get in and out.
But since they have already walked together, he has nothing to be dissatisfied about.
"I'll leave the other things with you for now. We may need to trouble Teacher Bai again in the future," he smiled. "Just bring Xiaoliang down with you."
An aunt visited Meng Qingyan's home every day, and during the filming in Building No. 8, Xiaoliang was never short of someone to take care of him.
Bai You knew that if Meng Qingyan didn’t want him to, he would not be needed at all.
But inexplicably, he nodded.
On the way upstairs, Bai You held Xiaoliang in his arms and brought him down.
He didn't get in the car. Instead, he bent down beside Meng Qingyan and handed Xiaoliang over.
"Has it gained weight again?" Meng Qingyan couldn't help laughing as soon as he took the cat into his arms. He held Xiaoliang in both hands and weighed him.
"It's my fault that I always like to feed it." Bai You also smiled, his eyes curved, and he reached out to rub Xiaoliang's head again, "Usually it always lies on my legs, and sometimes I can't help it, so I feed it snacks while watching things."
Xiaoliang used to be timid. He would always hide in the cat's nest in the flower bed during the day and never go out. He would only come out at night to bask in the moonlight.
Now that he has been raised at home for a while, he has no worries about food and clothing, and his weight has soared, so he is even more reluctant to move.
Repeat this cycle and you will get fatter and fatter.
Bai You rubbed it twice before reluctantly taking his hand away and closing the car door for Meng Qingyan.
The car window was rolled down, and Meng Qingyan's dark eyes were filled with a faint smile, and the moonlight made them look a little gentler.
"Goodbye, Mr. Bai," he said. "Good night."
"Goodbye." Bai You took two steps back and watched the car back up, turn around, and finally drive into the avenue, disappearing from sight little by little.
On the way back again, Bai You's steps were much more leisurely.
Walking on the moonlight step by step.
Autumn came early this year. The roses by the wall have withered. A crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and the night wind has become chilly.
The lights were on in the house. When I opened the door, I could see Xiaoliang's mobile cat bed, litter box, and half a bag of leftover cat food.
Bai You didn't want to think deeply about why he left these things behind.
Although he kept using the excuse of "I didn't know Meng Qingyan was coming back, so I didn't have time to pack up" to convince himself, in fact, he knew in his heart that it would not take long to pack up all these.
Meng Qingyan could wait for him downstairs in the hotel for more than half an hour and would not mind waiting for a few more minutes.
But he finally listened to him and kept these things.
Like a bait, at this moment, even Bai You himself began to lose track of who was the one holding the rod.
The music box of the kissing man was placed on the sideboard. Bai You specially put it there after the filming of Building No. 8 was completed.
Having not been touched for a long time, a thin layer of dust had already fallen on the little figure in white clothes who was slightly looking up.
Bai You raised his hand, took down the music box, took out a wet wipe, and wiped it bit by bit.
When he touched the top of his head, the switch of the music box was accidentally touched. With a click, a familiar melody rang in his ears, and the little man danced happily in his palm.
The name of the song is "Secretly Enchanted". Meng Qingyan played it himself, and it sounds a little more cheerful than the original song.
And at this moment, half a year later, Bai You finally understood the song.
I finally understood that when Meng Qingyan played the song for this music box, he must have been really happy, so even the rhythm became cheerful.
He wiped the music box clean and put it back on the sideboard, then took out the script he had just received tonight and opened it from the beginning.
At the same time, Meng Qingyan had just carried Xiaoliang home.
After staying in Baiyou's small house for a while, Xiaoliang returned to the large flat. He was extremely excited and jumped onto the sofa with a meow.
Meng Qingyan bent down and refilled Xiaoliang's glass of fresh water before taking out the cigar.
He found the cigar cutter, cut open the cigar cap, lowered his eyes, lit the cigar foot evenly little by little, and bit it between his teeth.
Bai You usually smokes cheap cigarettes, so for him, this cigar feels very good, not strong or choking, and has rich layers.
But Meng Qingyan felt a strong astringency after just one sip, realizing that it was not fermented enough.
But this cigar smelled the same as Bai You's at the moment, so he still stood by the window and smoked it slowly.
-
The days when I was immersed in the script passed by exceptionally quickly.
In early September, "Fireworks" officially began casting, and the entertainment industry, which had been quiet for a while, became lively again.
At the same time, the set of jewelry that Bai You ordered for Qiu Wan was finally completed.
The shooting of Building No. 8 was very intense before, and Wang Zhen personally delivered the initial design draft and prototype to the hotel for him to confirm.
Although I have been in touch with the designer online, I have never met him in person.
Originally, this set of accessories could be placed at the nearest counter so that customers could pick them up at any time, or they could arrange for door-to-door delivery.
But Bai You had always wanted to thank the designer in person, and now he finally had enough time, so he finally went to Meng's in person.
Meng’s Jewelry covers a large area, with several office buildings scattered in front and back, and a clear artificial lake in the middle.
When Bai You arrived, it was not far from the noon hour when get off work was over. The park was quiet. After entering the design department building, he saw the busy figures of Meng's employees.
He went upstairs with the staff, met the designer in the reception room, and saw the final product.
It looks much better than in the photos.
The white gold is inlaid with diamonds and embellished with emeralds and rubies. The whole set of jewelry sparkles brightly under the light, noble yet not gaudy, and especially suitable for Qiu Wan.
When I thanked the designer and left, it was exactly 11:30 in the morning, time for Meng’s Jewelry to have a lunch break.
Walking around the artificial lake, Bai You lowered his head to hail a taxi while walking towards the gate of the park.
It was not until a car stopped diagonally beside him that he raised his eyes belatedly.
The car window slowly lowered, revealing Shen Yueting's face full of joy.
"Teacher Xiaobai," she asked, "are you here to pick up that set of accessories?"
Bai You bowed slightly and greeted her politely, "Mrs. Meng."
He smiled again: "Yes."
"Are you satisfied?" Shen Yueting got out of the car, his smiling eyes full of kindness, as if he was looking at his own child.
After meeting several times, Bai You had a good impression of Shen Yueting.
She is extremely beautiful and her temperament is noble and elegant, but she is not arrogant at all and is very approachable.
He is much easier to get along with than Meng Qingyan.
Hearing this, Bai You nodded immediately, but couldn't help but feel a little curious about how Shen Yueting knew about this.
Meng's company is so big that a small order flying in is like a snowflake in the sky. To Shen Yueting, it should have no sense of existence.
"Qing Yan mentioned this to me before," Shen Yueting smiled, as if seeing through his doubts, "I went to see the finished product the day before yesterday, and Xiao Wei said that your creativity was also included in it. Teacher Xiao Bai is really excellent."
Bai You: “…”
He just wanted Qiu Wan to be happy forever, so he mentioned in the initial communication with the designer that he hoped that the set of accessories could have four-leaf clover elements representing luck and rose elements representing love.
Even if it is just a suggestion in a broad sense, it has nothing to do with design.
Bai You seriously suspected that Meng Qingyan had grown up with praise from Shen Yueting, which was why he was so confident and arbitrary in every aspect.
He was about to explain, but Shen Yueting had already invited him enthusiastically: "I'm about to go out for dinner, Teacher Xiaobai, come with me."
Bai You was a little overwhelmed by Shen Yueting's enthusiasm.
But he knew that if he was photographed having dinner with Meng Qingyan's mother, what kind of rumors would spread.
Bai You has always been straightforward and seldom lies. Even after entering the entertainment industry, some of his personality edges remain.
But at this moment, he couldn't help making up a lie.
"Thank you, Mrs. Meng," Bai You said, "but today is a bit unfortunate. I have an appointment with a friend."
Hearing this, Shen Yueting felt a little regretful.
"Then when you are free, let Qingyan bring you home to play," she tempted, "My aunt is a good cook."
Bai You maintained a proper smile and responded in a low voice.
Only after seeing Shen Yueting get in the car and leave did he breathe a sigh of relief and feel very remorseful.
In the car, Shen Yueting tilted his head to look at Meng Shizhao on the other side and asked with a smile: "Is the child okay?"
"As long as Meng Qingyan likes it." Meng Shizhao said coldly.
A family like theirs does not need to rely on marriage to consolidate its status.
He also has enough ability to lift Baiyou up, so he doesn't care about his background at all.
As long as they are good people and the two children like each other, that's enough.
"That's right," Shen Yueting raised his hand and rubbed his brow, "I just feel that this kid doesn't seem to have any interest in Yanyan at all."
She used her finger to measure the distance, which was less than a millimeter, and said with a sad face: "It seems that there is not even this much."
Last time he was still gloating over someone else's misfortune, but this time seeing Shen Yueting speak so seriously, Meng Shizhao couldn't sit still for a moment.
"Why? He's so useless?" Meng Shizhao said seriously, "Does it mean that he needs his parents to personally help him find a partner?"
