“I’ve never seen anyone like it.”
"When he smiles, he looks very... dazzling." Even when sitting on the most relaxing sofa, the man would sit upright with his back straight and every button of his shirt buttoned tightly.
This was the first time Dr. Sun saw light in his eyes. As a doctor, he was happy but also worried. Some of his past patients found their own salvation. They gradually became happy and even found hope to live.
But no one is born to save anyone, and when the day comes that salvation is gone, most patients become worse than before, or even jump into an abyss from which there is no turning back.
Yan Ting only said a few words and fell silent again. This was the most he had ever spoken. Dr. Sun wanted to take the opportunity to establish a conversational relationship with him, so he praised him, "Then he must be an excellent person."
"Laughs a lot." Yan Ting was silent for a moment: "Likes to chatter."
"Am I nagging you?" Doctor Sun sat casually. He wanted the patient to forget his identity as a doctor and talk to him with an open heart.
Yan Ting was silent again. He looked at his wrist and stood up: "Time is almost up."
"Mr. Yan." Doctor Sun stood up and did not stop him from leaving. Instead, he said, "If you want to talk to me about your friend again in the future, I can be your loyal listener."
Yan Ting raised his eyelids and looked at him: "And then let you analyze his personality and mentality?"
Doctor Sun smiled and explained: "Mr. Yan, I am just a listener."
Yan Ting opened the door and walked out, and the bodyguards waiting outside surrounded him.
“Go to Sungei Wang Plaza.”
The lights in Jinhe Plaza were as bright as day, and fans of the drama were sitting under the stage holding light signs. The creative team of "The Boss Girl" was making preparations backstage before going on stage. The lead actress and the third male actor were not present, but everyone seemed to have forgotten the existence of these two people, and no one mentioned them from beginning to end.
"Li Zhao." Song Yu walked towards Li Zhao aggressively. Director Liu rushed up and stopped Song Yu, saying, "Teacher Song, please take your time. We will be on stage soon."
You, my ancestor, please don't stir up trouble at this time. There are rumors outside that the male and female actors are not getting along. Please stop spreading news about the male lead and the second male lead. His old heart can't take it.
"Director Liu was pretty quick today." Song Yu sneered. When he had made things difficult for Li Zhao before, no one in the crew had reacted.
Director Liu smiled awkwardly, but still didn't let Song Yu get close to Li Zhao: "This is all for our crew."
He allowed Li Zhao to be bullied in the past because he knew that he could not afford to offend the actors arranged by the investors. The reason why he doesn't let Song Yu bully Li Zhao now is because he knows that Li Zhao is the most popular actor in the show, and it will be beneficial to the show if Li Zhao cooperates in the promotion.
He is just a director who assesses the situation and does not think he has done anything wrong.
"Brother Song, do you have something to talk to me about?" Li Zhao didn't realize Director Liu's good intentions at all. Not only did he not avoid Song Yu, but he took the initiative to take two steps towards him: "Do you want to treat me to a midnight snack tonight?"
"Eat shit, can't you think of anything else besides eating?" Song Yu pushed Director Liu away and sat down on the chair next to him. His tone was stiff: "I heard that you signed with Strawberry Entertainment?"
When the other people in the room heard the words "Strawberry Entertainment", they pricked up their ears, and several other actors couldn't even help but reveal envy on their faces.
"Yeah." Li Zhao nodded.
Song Yu's expression changed over and over, and finally he said in a choked voice: "You are quite capable, actually being able to get involved with Strawberry Entertainment."
"No, they contacted me and I saw that the conditions were pretty good, so I signed it."
Song Yu: “…”
Others in the room: "..."
This guy was so pretentious that they had nothing to say.
Perhaps choked by Li Zhao's words, Song Yu did not speak again until he went on stage. In the subsequent interactive session, the host mentioned the friendship between Li Zhao and Song Yu.
Song Yu sneered in his heart. There was no friendship between him and Li Zhao.
"We all know that although Zhao Zhao and Xiao Yu'er are rivals in love in the drama, they are good friends in real life. I wonder if you will have the opportunity to work together again in the future?"
Song Yu glanced at Li Zhao. He didn't want to cooperate with Li Zhao again in his life. He was afraid that his heart would be in trouble.
Li Zhao smiled shyly: "Brother Song has always taken good care of me. I hope we will have the opportunity to work together in the future."
This way you can save a lot of money on midnight snacks.
Song Yu: “…”
No, I don’t want to!
Unfortunately, ideals are full, but reality is skinny. When Song Yu woke up the next morning, he received a message from his agent, saying that he had been offered a role in a historical drama with a large investment.
"I originally wanted to help you fight for the ranking with another main male supporting actor, but unfortunately the other team has better means and he is ranked ahead of you." The agent muttered on the other end of the phone: "Play this role well and try to get rid of the label of a pretentious person."
"Who wants to compete with me for a ranking?!" Song Yu was a little unhappy.
"Li Zhao's team." The agent consoled him, "We can't help it. Strawberry Entertainment's PR team is too good. We can't compete with them. But your role is outstanding. If you play it well, you might be able to outdo Li Zhao."
"You think too much." Song Yusheng lay back on the bed with despair. If he had given the role of being scolded in his dream to Li Zhao, he would have become famous, not to mention this well-made historical drama.
Fate, it’s all fate.
Compared to Song Yu, who felt hopeless about life, Li Zhao was very happy. He seemed to see a bright future of eating and drinking for free. However, thinking that he had won an important role without an audition, Li Zhao asked Luo Rong, the executive agent of Strawberry Entertainment: "Brother Luo, don't I need to audition?"
"The company has already sent your personal information to the crew. The crew is very satisfied with you. You can act with peace of mind after joining the crew." Luo Ronggang had only been Li Zhao's executive agent for a few days. He and Zhang Xiaoyuan were in charge of different work content and had a better understanding of the company's internal resources.
"Our company is one of the investors in the drama Tian Ge. It may be broadcast on the national TV station after it is finished. You have great acting skills, so don't feel pressured." Luo Rong said calmly, as if the role in this drama was easy to get. "It doesn't matter even if this drama fails. The company will start filming an ancient idol drama in three months. I will help you decide on the male lead first to ensure your subsequent popularity."
Here in Strawberry, Li Zhao finally realized what it meant to be wealthy and have abundant resources. You can get roles in major historical dramas at will, and you can give the leading role in fantasy and ancient costume dramas at will.
Is this the happiness of marrying into a wealthy family?
After ending the call with Luo Rong, Li Zhao quickly opened the script of "Tian Ge" and made a character understanding map. At noon, the chef prepared lunch for him. He sat at the table and suddenly thought of Yan Ting who worked in the company. He took out his mobile phone and sent him a message.
[Zhao Zhao wishes you good luck: Tingting, it’s noon now, have you eaten? 】
[Zhao Zhao wishes you good luck: You have just recovered from your cold, so don’t eat too greasy food. If you think porridge has no taste, you can eat casserole rice. 】
In the office, Yan Ting took the medicine prescribed by the doctor, took the nutrient solution handed to him by Assistant Qin, and was about to drink it when the screen of his mobile phone lit up.
"Sir?" Assistant Qin saw Yan Ting put the nutrient solution aside and thought he was not satisfied with it: "If you are not satisfied with the taste, I will change it for you."
After a moment of silence, Yan Ting said, "No, prepare a casserole rice for me."
"Okay!" Assistant Qin was delighted and arranged for someone to order a clay pot rice for her husband without thinking. After arranging all this, he leaned against the wall and breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s a good thing that you are still willing to eat, it’s a good thing.
Half an hour later, Li Zhao received a photo sent by Yan Ting. A casserole full of rice was placed on the table, still steaming.
【Yanting: I ate it.】 】
Short and direct, without even a single extra punctuation mark.
[Zhao Zhao wishes you good luck: I will be joining a new crew tomorrow and will be back less often. I will cook for you in the evening. 】
The casserole rice was very hot. Yan Ting put down his chopsticks when he saw the message from Li Zhaoxin.
"Sir?" Assistant Qin saw Yan Ting stop eating after only two spoonfuls, and asked hurriedly: "Is the food in this restaurant not to your liking?"
Quickly wiping the corners of his mouth, Yan Ting stood up and picked up the coat next to him: "Go home."
"Yes, sir."
The streets are so congested that vehicles can hardly move. Yan Ting looked at the endless flow of traffic in front of him, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
"Sir, there seems to be a car accident ahead." Assistant Qin took out his phone and checked the traffic conditions: "It will probably take a while before the traffic is clear again."
Yan Ting opened his eyes and looked out the window. On the sidewalk, a couple was walking hand in hand in the cold wind. The girl put her cold hands into the boy's neck. The boy shivered from the cold, but did not push the girl away. The two of them talked and laughed as they slowly walked away.
What's the meaning of this kind of relationship where you're extremely passionate when you're close, but wish the other person would die when you're apart? He couldn't understand, nor did he want to understand. A relationship that is destined to end, is like the sun that rises in the morning, which will eventually set and turn the world into darkness.
The phone screen lit up again.
[Zhao Zhao wishes you good luck: Tingting, I made some soup for you, it’s just right for you to drink when you come back.] By the way, I bought two kilograms of oranges on the way back. The oranges taste just right in this season. 】
The owner of the fruit shop was concentrating on watching "Sweet Love of a Domineering Female Boss" on her mobile phone. Two or three o'clock in the afternoon is the busiest time for the fruit shop, and she usually kills time by watching the drama.
When she saw the male protagonist bending down and carrying the female boss who had taken off her high heels, she couldn't help but smile sweetly, and didn't even notice that a customer had come into the store. When she looked up, the other party had already walked to the counter.
"Hello, what kind of fruit would you like to buy?"
"orange."
"We have different varieties of oranges in our store. Which one do you like?"
“The best.”
The fruit shop owner glanced at the person who came and took a breath of cold air.
Oh my god, where did this extremely handsome man come from?
After her introduction, the handsome guest bought several different kinds of oranges and left. Although his expression did not change from beginning to end and he did not say anything, she still felt that he was a man with a story.
Carrying a bag of green and yellow oranges, Yan Ting just walked to the door of Li Zhao's house and smelled a faint smell of broth.
The door slowly opened, and Li Zhao poked his head out: "Tingting, why are you back so early? The meal is not ready yet."
That's the flavor of the broth.
It's not disgusting, but has a light fragrance.
He walked into the room, put the oranges on the table, and took off his coat and put it on the armrest of the sofa.
"This orange is so sweet." Li Zhao peeled a slice of the orange and put it in his mouth. He chewed it and peeled another slice and handed it to Yan Ting: "Come, try it too."
Looking at the orange slice in front of him, Yan Ting smelled the fragrance of orange peel.
Is this the taste of... winter?
