Chapter 621: Confusion (28)
In the car.
The assistant sitting next to Yu Zhi looked at the destination on the mobile phone map with concern.
"Joshua, do you really want to go to this place?"
He couldn't figure it out. Joshua had just returned to China, and many paparazzi were staking out his position.
Thinking of filming his firsthand news.
So at this time, it is best to stick to your work schedule and avoid going out at other times. But...
When we were about to get off work today, Yu Zhi suddenly asked to change the route.
Instead, I chose to go to a dessert shop.
You have to know that there are a lot of people there, so it's hard to say whether they will be recognized. If you want to buy dessert, you can just tell the assistant and he will go buy it.
But Yu Zhi said he was going to pick someone up.
Who should I pick up?
The assistant racked his brains to figure it out, and he was worried that the paparazzi would remember their license plate. He was afraid that the paparazzi would follow them and take pictures, and then he would have to deal with these trivial matters privately.
It is inevitable to lose money.
The assistant's anxious questioning brought Yu Zhi back to his senses from where he had been staring out the window. The young man frowned, his tone filled with barely concealed irritation and dissatisfaction.
"Didn't I say I was going to pick someone up?"
He didn't want to say the same thing over and over again.
The assistant was stunned for a moment, then reacted and suddenly realized that he had overstepped the bounds. He was assigned to Yu Zhi by the company to help him.
And handle most of the things.
These were basically just trivial matters of this type. He naturally had no right to ask what Yu Zhi wanted to do.
Who would notice a little assistant?
He just needs to do what he is told, these are not his questions.
Re-recognize your own position.
The assistant fell silent, only nodded silently, then lowered his head slightly and responded, "I understand. I'll get out of the car to meet the other party. For your sake, please stay in the car."
"knew."
Yu Zhi closed his eyes and said no more. Seeing this, the assistant also fell silent.
The vehicle drives to its destination.
Gan Youmeng was waiting alone in front of the dessert shop. She looked at the vehicles coming and going anxiously, hoping in her heart that the person she was waiting for would appear.
Brother Yuzhi is back.
She didn't expect that the other party would return to China at this time. It was a big surprise for her!
She tried to ask for a meeting.
As expected, Brother Yu Zhi did not refuse, but agreed to pick her up after get off work.
This also gave Gan Youmeng some comfort.
Things were not going well between her and Brother Xiangzhu.
She didn't know what to do anymore, because no matter how she begged, Nan Xiangzhu seemed determined not to pay any attention to her.
She had also thought about going to apologize in person.
But after hesitating for a long time, he finally gave up. Gan Youmeng felt that he was too shy to do such a thing.
She has called so many times.
Sent so many messages.
It was clearly Nan Xiangzhu's fault for always ignoring her, so why did she have to take the initiative so many times?
Understand this.
Gan Youmeng felt vaguely relieved.
At first, she would be anxious when Nan Xiangzhu didn't answer her calls or reply to her messages, but now, she has gradually let it go, since Brother Xiangzhu ignores her.
Then she could only put it aside for the time being.
Not only did Brother Yan Liang not apologize to her until now, but he also didn't make any move. What was even more infuriating was that Gan Youmeng discovered that Brother Yan Liang had deleted all her contact information.
It’s not like she hasn’t tried to contact the other party.
But when I call out, it shows that the other party is busy.
However, when she changed the number and called, she was able to get through again. However, Yan Liang had never answered a call from an unfamiliar number, so she could only give up the idea for the time being.
Speaking of which.
And Brother Zhiliao...
Gan Youmeng lowered her head, stared at her toes and sighed. She had it so hard, and she hadn't had time to contact her brother Zhi Liao yet.
Because she had chased Nan Xiangzhu out before.
Zhi Liao was there and watched her chase Nan Xiangzhu out.
Although Gan Youmeng was grateful that Zhi Liao did not catch up at that time, she also knew that this matter must have a result.
That's the problem.
When will Zhi Liao come to ask her?
She was waiting for Zhi Liao to ask her, but she also hoped that Zhi Liao would not ask. If he really didn't ask, the two of them could pretend that nothing had happened, and perhaps their relationship would take a step further.
Thinking of this, Gan Youmeng breathed a sigh of relief.
That's fine.
Up to now, there has been no news from Brother Zhi Liao, maybe he doesn't care, and Brother Zhi Liao will reply to her messages just like before.
Although it took a little longer.
But Gan Youmeng knew that he was very busy, which was understandable.
She tried to dial Nan Xiangzhu's number again, holding the phone close to her ear. The ringing didn't last long. Soon, there was a "beep" sound indicating the call was hung up.
Gan Youmeng gradually became discouraged.
She stood on the busy street with her head hung, looking at the hung-up number on her screen, and pursed her lips unwillingly.
Even if she didn't want to admit it.
But judging from her current situation, Brother Xiangzhu might not be as kind to her as before. Perhaps it was because he had been too kind to her all along, that was why he became like this?
Was the blow too great?
But Brother Xiangzhu shouldn't have ignored her explanation.
Gan Youmeng felt a little bewildered. She felt like she was used to this feeling and had never experienced this feeling of being ignored. Was it really because she was too willful?
Or...
Brother Xiangzhu no longer believes in himself?
Gan Youmeng was lost in thought, staring at the road across the street. At this moment, a car suddenly appeared in her sight.
The glaring light shone over.
Gan Youmeng rubbed her eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable. She looked ahead and saw a man in a simple sports shirt getting out of the car.
The man didn't look particularly tall, with a medium build and a thin body. He looked around as if he was looking for someone.
but.
When he noticed Gan Youmeng across the street, he seemed slightly stunned, then quickened his pace and walked over.
Gan Youmeng subconsciously took a step back.
She didn't recognize this person, yet he was coming straight at her. Was he a bad guy? What should she do?
Her heart was pounding wildly and she was on high alert.
When the other person walked up to her and noticed her, he seemed relieved and quickly smiled: "Ms. Gan, Joshua asked me to pick you up. Let's get in the car."
"What?"
When Gan Youmeng heard the familiar name, her surprise quickly turned into joy.
Brother Yuzhi is here!
She followed the assistant, quickly ran over to open the car door, and then impatiently sat in the back seat. As expected, when she turned around, she saw the young man leaning against the car window with his eyes closed.
"Brother Yuzhi--" Gan Youmeng exclaimed in surprise.
Yu Zhi turned around and glanced at her when he heard that. The young man with a delicate face curled his lips slightly: "Long time no see, You Meng."
There was a hint of smile in the gentle voice.
Hearing this, Gan Youmeng blushed and smiled embarrassedly: "Yeah, yes, brother Yu Zhi is getting more and more handsome."
"Yeah?"
Yu Zhi looked at Gan Youmeng with some curiosity: "Why do I feel that your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter?"
"No way! I've always been like this."
Gan Youmeng pouted with some dissatisfaction. She sat over intimately and wanted to hold Yu Zhi's arm and act coquettishly.
only.
As soon as she got closer, she smelled the mature and elegant fragrance on the young man. Gan Youmeng blushed slightly and felt a little shy.
These mood changes.
Naturally, it did not escape Yu Zhi's eyes.
The woman in front of me was wearing a forest-style long dress. There was no trace of makeup on her face, but she had a natural charm.
She is like this.
She is not packaged as charming and beautiful as those stars.
Most of them have the pure feeling of a girl.
Judging from her appearance alone, you can't tell that Gan Youmeng is already 25 years old. Not only does she lack the maturity of an adult, but her eyes are full of innocence.
Such an expression.
Vaguely similar to... Qiao Xi, who hadn't been destroyed before.
When it's not destroyed.
She once had such innocent and beautiful eyes, as clear and lively as spring water.
Full of spirituality and very beautiful.
However, in the subsequent torture, her spirituality was slowly destroyed.
It is also the result of their own creation.
As for the current Qiao Xi, just look at the photo he got that time.
It's like...
A delicate, fragile, empty, soulless doll.
There is a gentle but distant smile on his face, and he has a cold temperament that keeps people at a distance, but he is good at catering to others and playing along.
A puppet with a lost soul.
An imperfect and defective product.
Yet, she is as beautiful and noble as an elegant white rose, dignified and inviolable. Why is this? A doll devoid of spirit, worn down by life.
Can it still shine with such brilliance?
Really want to know.
If time could go back again, would the result be the same?
He wanted to give it a try.
So - we have to find a similar example.
Under the dim light, the indifference in Yu Zhi's eyes was hidden under a smile, and Gan Youmeng failed to notice his subtle alienation and coldness.
The girl still spoke to him with a blushing face, and acted coquettishly in a soft and sweet baby voice.
"Brother Yuzhi, please come and play with me this weekend!"
Gan Youmeng pouted.
Yu Zhi collected his thoughts and smiled: "Well - OK, what place do you like?"
Gan Youmeng became distressed: "There are so many, can't we go one by one?"
Yu Zhi raised his hand and pinched her cheek, saying in a doting tone, "Of course, Mengmeng will accompany you wherever you want to go."
The sudden intimate behavior made Gan Youmeng blush.
"I'm not a child, Brother Yuzhi, don't always treat me like a child!"
"Haha, really? There's no difference."
The two of them were chatting and flirting with each other without paying attention to the people around them, which made the assistant sitting in the front passenger seat feel complicated.
Although……
He knew that he shouldn't interfere with the artist's private life, nor could he say anything about it.
But Joshua was on fire.
The popularity of their boy group's world tour has not yet subsided. Now is the perfect time to take advantage of the high traffic to transform into acting, reap the benefits, and bring in a lot of popularity.
Many people are looking forward to Yu Zhi's new play.
Now is the time to think about the script and put in some effort to understand the character, right?
It doesn’t mean that you can’t have your own rest time.
That's it... like this, meeting a woman right away, and even joking around about where to go, isn't that a bit inappropriate? He just returned to China not long ago, and his new drama just started filming.
As soon as I returned home, I started dating someone I suspected was my lover...
Is this really okay?
The assistant was in a complicated mood, not knowing whether to report the matter to his superiors. For a super popular star like Yu Zhi, the contract clearly forbids him from having a romantic relationship.
Although I don’t know where this Miss Gan comes from.
But he felt...
It is still necessary to mention it to the company.
After silently making up his mind, the assistant began to carefully choose his words and sent a message to his boss on his mobile phone to report.
Yu Zhi sent Gan Youmeng home.
Qiao Xi, who had had dinner with Yan Liang, found an excuse to leave before Yan Liang asked her to stay overnight.
She politely declined Yan Liang's request to send her off.
If you continue to share the same space with this person, it is hard to guarantee that nothing strange will develop.
She refused persistently.
Yan Liang didn't want to push her too hard, causing Qiao Xi to disappear from his sight again, so he simply didn't insist.
The night wind was chilly.
The cold and lonely moonlight poured down, covering the entire city. Qiao Xi walked under the city shrouded in darkness, feeling the rare tranquility.
As it approached ten o'clock, there were fewer people coming and going.
She was walking down the street and suddenly stopped when she passed a dessert shop.
It’s not closed yet.
Do you want to buy something to eat?
Qiao Xi fell into a brief moment of thought. Eating desserts at night would undoubtedly make her fat, but eating them once in a while wouldn't be a big deal.
The Little White Cat System poked its head into the space and took a look.
[Gan Youmeng just waited for Yuzhi here]
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xi stopped.
[Just cross the intersection and turn a corner, and you’ll find Gan Youmeng’s home. It’s the villa you thought looked pretty from afar.]
The Little White Cat System added.
After parting with Yan Liang, Qiao Xi asked Yan Liang to take her to her own company. After finishing some work, she walked away from the company.
Because they are all located in the economically prosperous center.
So her company is not particularly far from Gan Youmeng's home. After all, her entertainment agency is quite large, occupies one of the best locations, and is located in the most prosperous urban area.
Gan Youmeng's home.
Naturally, it is also in the wealthy area of the bustling city.
Qiao Xi didn't have a house in that area. Her family owned a manor in this city, which was also her own residence. After Xi's father hosted a banquet for her there, he left and returned to their manor abroad.
Qiao Xi drove back to her home in the manor from the city by herself.
It takes about forty minutes.
Xi's father left her with a cleaner and a trustworthy secretary to help manage the business, so it was okay for her not to go back.
not to mention.
Because of the watch, she is now destined to be by Zhi Liao's side every night.
[Has Yu Zhi already started contacting Gan Youmeng? ]
【yes】
While Qiao Xi was chatting with the little white cat system in her mind, she pushed open the door of the dessert shop and bought two puddings.
She planned to call Zhi Liao.
She could only wait for the other party to pick her up.
After all, even when that person sent her out, he blindfolded her and did not reveal the location of the villa. However, judging from the surrounding environment, it was also a remote place.
“Beep—”
The phone rang twice and was quickly connected.
There was a noisy sound coming from somewhere, including men cheering excitedly and women cheering and clapping.
From the scattered words, one can hear the call for another round.
Some people were also shouting and placing bets.
Is it in a casino?
"What's wrong?" The voice from the other end of the phone was steady and magnetic. There was no trace of passion for indulging in fun in the man's flat voice, but he was too calm.
Qiao Xi looked at the road sign beside her.
She held the phone and whispered, "Come pick me up, it's cold. Time to go home."
Zhi Liao on the other end of the phone seemed silent.
She couldn't hear the other person's breathing, and the noisy voices around her had drowned out everything. But even so, through the phone, Qiao Xi could imagine the other person's silent expression.
For a long while.
It was so long that Qiao Xi almost thought Zhi Liao had hung up when she finally heard the other party's voice.
"Where is it?"
It was still just two simple syllables, and the calm and cold voice came without any emotion.
It seemed as if the bustle around him had nothing to do with him.
"I'll wait for you at the dessert shop on XX Road." Qiao Xi looked down at the bag in her hand, and tightened the knitted scarf around her neck.
"knew."
After Zhi Liao replied, he hung up the phone.
The noisy sound faded away in an instant, and Qiao Xi put down her phone, looking at the screen showing that the conversation between the two people had not even lasted for a minute.
The communication between her and Zhi Liao.
That’s about it.
There is no warmth, and it is hard to say what emotions there are towards each other. The intimacy is also the most unfamiliar sense of alienation.
but……
Qiao Xi was a little curious about Zhi Liao's attitude towards Gan Youmeng. Since they separated, it seemed that he had not contacted Gan Youmeng.
