Chapter 64 I realized it silently...
Meng Qingyan had no time for the whole night as he was busy with welcoming and seeing off guests.
It wasn't until everything was over and he was in the car that he unlocked his phone and checked the densely packed congratulatory messages on the screen.
Except for his parents and a few close friends, Meng Qingyan did not respond to anyone else. He just lowered his eyes and edited a circle of friends to express his gratitude, and then closed his eyes to rest all the way.
The car drove fast and steadily, but when we got home, it was already past midnight.
In social software, except for the small group of friends where messages would occasionally pop up, everyone else had gone quiet, leaving only countless comments and likes in the Moments.
Meng Qingyan clicked it and scanned the densely packed like icons, but didn't see the avatar he wanted.
The elevator arrived at the station and the beep sounded. He turned off the screen and did not feel surprised.
Yonghua Mansion has one apartment per elevator. When the elevator door is opened, there is a space of about 20 square meters.
On one side is a semi-circular elliptical glass floor-to-ceiling window, which can be made into a small reception room. Many neighbors deliberately incorporate this space into their own residences, and the elevator serves as a direct entrance to the home.
But Meng Qingyan didn't like this kind of transformation.
Although it is just a psychological effect, this kind of transformation always gives people a feeling of lack of privacy.
Therefore, there were no curtains on the floor-to-ceiling windows. Now that the door was opened, the crescent moon in the distant sky came into view obliquely.
Meng Qingyan first saw the crescent moon, and then his gaze was attracted by something and slowly turned to his door.
The bouquet of flowers was fixed to the handrail near the door frame with a pink ribbon. The flower stems were straight, giving a feeling of heroism.
Meng Qingyan paused slightly, and in an instant it seemed as if all the alcohol in his body was steaming up.
He walked over slowly, as if there was not a bouquet of flowers on the door, but a butterfly that had just landed and would fly away immediately if he increased his pace a little.
The flowers on the door will not fly away; on the contrary, they are firmly fixed.
Meng Qingyan leaned forward and bent over slightly, stroking the soft and slightly cool petals of the sunflower with his fingertips, and then moving down to the tender green bamboo leaves.
When he was about to untie the ribbon, he suddenly paused, took out his cell phone, and carefully found the angle to take a picture.
Afterwards, he carefully untied the ribbon and held the flower in his arms.
Meng Qingyan is busy and rarely takes care of the flowers and plants.
But at this moment, when he held the small bouquet in his arms, there was uncontrollable joy in his eyes.
Meng Qingyan opened the door and turned on the light in the living room.
Perhaps affected by the light, Xiaoliang sleepily stretched out one of his front paws, then buried his head again and began to snore.
But Meng Qingyan wouldn't let it sleep. He bent down and poked Xiaoliang with his fingers to wake him up, then carried him to the sofa and positioned him.
Ignoring Xiaoliang's sleepy eyes, he stuffed the flowers into Xiaoliang's arms.
Xiaoliang was not very active to begin with, not to mention that he was still half asleep and half awake. He leaned on the sofa and forgot to resist for a moment, and was frozen in the camera with a click.
Meng Qingyan looked at the photo on the screen with satisfaction, then clicked on Bai You's dialog box and sent the photo.
Then he took the flowers back from Xiaoliang's arms and found two antique vases.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered Bai You pruning the branches and putting the flowers into the vase.
I silently realized those things that are so precious.
After trimming the branches and putting the flowers in a vase, he turned on his phone again to take pictures, opened Weibo, uploaded three photos of inside and outside the door, and edited the text: I received the best gift today.
After a moment's silence, he raised his hand again and deleted the word "today" on the screen.
To say “today” is not accurate.
Because this bouquet of flowers was not for today, but was the best gift he had received in many years.
Meng Qingyan's popularity is extremely high, so high that it even exceeds most people's imagination.
Even though it was already early in the morning, this Weibo post immediately caused a huge sensation.
Netizens who had been sending their blessings elsewhere quickly gathered together.
[Ahhhhhhh, I'm tired of saying congratulations, bro, awesome! 】
[It was expected. My brother is my brother.] 】
[Crazy looking forward to Building No. 8~]
Blessings, congratulations...
It was so overwhelming that it took a while for information about the Weibo content to return.
[Wow, is this little bouquet of flowers the best gift I’ve ever received? Qingyan is so easy to satisfy...】
[Putting flowers on the door is such a romantic way to send flowers. I didn’t expect that my brother, who is so cool and aloof, would also be interested in such little things? 】
[Hahahaha, the way the cat Kundudu holds the flowers is so adorable. It must be forced to do business, right? Oh my god, I want a cat like this too. 】
[MiTu, add me.] 】
[And me. And me. I raise a Chinese native cat. 】
【……】
[I’m dying of laughter. This is the first time I see childishness in Qing Yan since his debut at the age of sixteen. Ahhhhh, he’s even more charming, okay? 】
[Oh my god, flowers worth a dozen dollars are actually placed with antiques worth millions? I was shocked. 】
[Ah, is this true?] How many surprises do you rich people have that I don’t know about? 】
[Originally: It turns out that someone as noble as Meng Qingyan can be dealt with by a few flowers like this, now there is a chance; Now: It turns out that I am always the clown! It is extremely harmful and insulting. 】
[Who on earth sent these flowers that Meng Qingyan treasures them so much? Ahhhhhhhhhhh…]
[Let's analyze it. First of all, judging from the pink ribbon, the other party should be a girl. She is close enough to know where Meng Qingyan lives, and may even be able to go in and out of his house directly. The reason why she put it on the door is probably to create a romantic atmosphere...]
[And Meng Qingyan said that this was "the best gift he had ever received". So, it's not that Meng Qingyan is easy to deal with, but the person who sent the flowers has a special status? Is that why Meng Qingyan cherishes it so much that he even uses an antique vase to highlight the preciousness of the bouquet of flowers, and cruelly pulls the cat out of its sleep to serve as a model for the flowers? 】
[Damn, damn, my brother is not really going to look for a sister-in-law, is he? You are only in your early twenties, you are still a college student, STOP. 】
[Damn, is this a slap in the face to those people who supported the Qingbai CP tonight? We haven't even finished eating here, but the couple over there are already showing their true love? 】
[Is it possible? Well, I'm just saying a tiny possibility, please don't scold me. Is it possible that these flowers were sent by Bai You? 】
[Impossible, absolutely impossible, didn’t you see it? That's a pink ribbon? Has Baiyou ever had any other colors on him? Except for those inexpensive trinkets, most of them are in black and white, right? Except for the one at the film festival tonight, of course. 】
【……】
The next morning, Bai You, who had randomly picked a pink ribbon because the clerk said there were only pink ribbons, saw the public opinion fermenting on the Internet and couldn't help but fall silent.
After one night, netizens had almost figured out the so-called complete plot in their minds, and even narrowed the scope to several wealthy daughters in Beijing and Meng Qingyan's classmates.
Even Yu Renzhi in the group was speculating wildly.
Meng Qingyan was too lazy to pay attention to him, but he quickly issued an announcement so as not to implicate others.
However, from beginning to end, he never denied the so-called "scandal".
Almost at the same time, just as Bai You had saved the photo of Xiaoliang holding flowers into the album, Jin Baobao called.
Although it was just a luxury in the beginning, now that Meng Qingyan's true scandal has come out, Jin Baobao still feels a little disappointed.
"I'm in a bad mood," he muttered, "Take me out for something delicious."
"What do you want to eat?" Seeing that the Qingbai CP fans on the Internet were being attacked, Bai You was not surprised by his behavior, so he asked soothingly.
Jin Baobao hadn't thought it through yet. He was quiet for a moment and suddenly remembered something.
"A while ago, Xiaoqiu said that a new restaurant opened near their company. They have limited-edition special dishes. They are very good. Should we go and have a look?" As he spoke, he remembered the colorful dishes that Ye Zhiqiu mentioned, and his mood brightened a little. "It is said that the king crab in the limited-edition dish weighs fifteen or sixteen pounds."
Bai You: “…”
I have a feeling that I'm about to bleed profusely.
But he has always doted on Jin Baobao, so he just smiled and said, "You go and decide."
It was a deal, and Jin Baobao called immediately.
It was early in the morning and there were still some private rooms in the store, but the limited edition "Emperor's Azure Dragon Golden Armor" had already been sold out.
Jin Baobao was in a bad mood again, but there were other good dishes in the restaurant, so he finally booked a private room.
It was the weekend, and Jin Baobao arrived at Baiyou's residence at around nine o'clock. He also brought a lot of food from home to fill Baiyou's refrigerator.
"When will you join the group?" asked Jin Baobao.
Bai You was bending over to put dumplings and wontons, as well as sausages made by Bai Xiuxi, into the refrigerator. Hearing this, he calculated in his mind: "Another week."
"We have to shoot outside this time," Jin Baobao was very reluctant to leave. He went over to hug Bai You and almost knocked Bai You to stumble. "I can't bear to leave you."
"It's just a two-hour drive." Bai You laughed and raised his hand to ruffle Jin Baobao's hair.
Jin Baobao looked at Bai You and suddenly felt a little dazed.
It was obvious that the two of them did not miss each other's growth, but how come his Youyou suddenly became so powerful?
But he almost won the Best Actor award.
Jin Baobao was a little confused, but he puffed out his chest a little proudly.
After everything was packed up, Jin Baobao wanted to drink the coffee made by Bai You again.
It was still early, so while Bai You was brewing coffee, she also made some fruit tea and put it into the thermos to prevent Jin Baobao from coming back and ordering unhealthy fruit juice drinks.
After a long time of dithering, the two finally arrived at the restaurant just in time for dinner.
The restaurant was bustling with people coming and going. Jin Baobao went to the front desk to confirm his private room, while Bai You sat in a corner of the waiting area and waited quietly.
He was wearing a baseball cap. Although the brim was pulled down so low that his eyes were almost invisible, many people still looked over at him.
Bai You took out his cell phone and was about to bury his face in it when he suddenly heard the restaurant manager's respectful greeting from the door.
"Mr. Meng, Mrs. Meng," the other person bent his straight back slightly, with a humble look, "please come this way."
Bai You raised her eyes and saw Shen Yueting coming in with Meng Shizhao's arm around her. She smiled gently, "Just go about your business and let the young people lead the way."
Shen Yueting rarely appears in public, and although Meng Shizhao appears more often, he is mostly on economic channels.
For a moment, although everyone felt that the couple had noble temperament and strong aura, no one recognized their identities quickly.
But Bai You is different.
Although I didn't expect to meet him by such a coincidence, since we met, as a junior, there is no reason for me not to go over and say hello.
Especially Shen Yueting has always been very polite to him.
The most important thing is that the other party is Meng Qingyan’s parents.
He stood up and was about to go forward when Jin Baobao came over.
"Youyou." he shouted.
As soon as a voice came out, several young people nearby who were originally wondering if they had recognized the wrong person immediately confirmed Bai You's identity and immediately surrounded him.
Everyone was well-mannered and spoke in low voices.
"Baiyou, I like you so much."
"Baiyou, could you please sign an autograph for me?"
"Baiyou, is it convenient for us to take a photo together?"
“…”
Bai You agreed one by one and smiled again: "Can you wait a moment? I may need to say hello to my friends first."
As everyone gathered around, Shen Yueting had already noticed Bai You. She did not come over to disturb him, but just stopped and looked over with a slight smile.
Seeing Bai You coming over, she smiled and said, "Teacher Xiao Bai is coming to eat too."
"With friends." Jin Baobao next to him had realized his mistake and was much quieter now, but as a die-hard fan of Meng Qingyan, he recognized Meng Shizhao at a glance.
Following Bai You, he quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, but his eyes suddenly widened.
Shen Yueting and Meng Shizhao's attention was on Bai You and they didn't notice Jin Baobao's startled movements.
It was not until Bai You's gaze shifted to Jin Baobao that their gaze shifted over.
"Is this Teacher Xiaobai's friend?" Shen Yueting asked with a smile, "The private room we booked is big, do you want to join us?"
Although Meng Shizhao next to him was more serious, he did not object.
Jin Baobao didn't say anything, but glanced sideways at Bai You.
"No, I won't." Bai You was always polite. "This kid is a little shy."
He pointed to the golden baby next to him.
Jin Baobao: “…”
No one in the world is as outgoing as me, okay?
However, he naturally couldn't expose Bai You. He just looked at Shen Yueting with kindness and smile at Bai You, and said in an intimate tone: "You are still a child yourself."
Bai You felt it was not good to refuse every time, and he had made up his mind that if there was a suitable opportunity in the future, he would definitely invite Shen Yueting to have dinner together.
After seeing Shen Yueting being taken upstairs, he turned around and went over to meet the requests of those young men.
Then he went upstairs with Jin Baobao.
Upstairs, at the door of the box, Shen Yueting stopped and thanked the waiter who showed her to the seat.
He also asked Bai You's private room whether they had ordered the restaurant's limited edition dishes.
Although this restaurant has a high positioning, most of the customers who come here to dine here are for the limited edition signature dish "Emperor Azure Dragon Golden Armor".
Shen Yueting had heard about it from someone else, so she specially arranged for Meng Shizhao to accompany her over on the weekend.
The waiter immediately checked the box that Bai You and his friends were in and told them the truth: "The person who ordered the meal was Mr. Jin. They came a little late and were unable to make a reservation."
"Tell the kitchen staff to prepare one for theirs as well. The price is fine," Meng Shizhao rarely spoke. "Theirs will be charged to my account."
The ingredients are limited, but the kitchen will usually keep one or two extra portions, one to deal with emergencies, and the other in case more distinguished guests come.
Hearing this, the waiter immediately responded.
In the private room, the first dish served was mango salmon.
After taking the first bite, Jin Baobao couldn't help but exclaimed: "So fresh and sweet, better than the restaurants I've eaten at before. It's hard to imagine how much of their limited edition dish I can eat. Ahhhh, next time I'm going to go to Cai Xiaoqiu."
He picked up some food for Bai You and asked for information: "You actually know Meng Qingyan's father and mother?"
"Mrs. Meng went to visit Teacher Meng's class when we were filming Building No. 8," said Bai You.
"Oh~" Jin Baobao suppressed the doubts in his heart and poured fruit tea from the thermos cup.
Just as he was about to speak, the door of the box was knocked again, and a waiter came in with a huge tray, and on the tray was the "Emperor's Golden Armor of the Azure Dragon" that Jin Baobao had been longing for.
Both of them were stunned for a moment. Jin Baobao looked at the large golden plate and swallowed silently.
It was Bai who reacted first. Seeing the waiter bending over to place the dishes on the table, he hurriedly said, "Maybe they served the wrong dish? We didn't order this dish."
The waiter was quietly counting Bai You's money. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng arranged this for you."
Bai You was stunned for a moment, then asked hurriedly, "Do they have any more over there?"
"Yes," said the waiter.
Bai You didn't ask any more questions.
He thought for a moment, asked the Meng couple's box number, and then called a nearby health porridge shop.
Shen Yueting seemed to be afraid of the cold and had already put on a cotton coat.
It is impolite not to reciprocate. Bai You can't just let Shen Yueting take care of her every time.
He ordered a health-preserving soup pot and had it delivered to the Meng couple's box urgently.
After finishing his work and putting down his phone, Jin Baobao finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Youyou," he wondered if there was any gossip, with a little flame in his eyes, "Why are the Meng family so nice to you, especially Mrs. Meng? I wanted to ask you just now, why does he look at you like his daughter-in-law?"
