Chapter 435 Want to see?
Not wanting to cause trouble for Yu Tian, nor wanting to make the other two worry, Wen Yang finally agreed to Fang Li's proposal and went back to the villa halfway up the mountain with her.
That night, after the Xingli Film and Television dinner ended, Yu Tian drove the two of them home.
"Although this isn't my first time here, every time I come here I can't help but complain, money feels so damn good!"
Wen Yang leaned on the car window, looking at the manor that would take several minutes to drive from the gate to the doorstep, his eyes full of envious stars.
"No wonder you feel lonely when Mr. Han is away. I'd be scared to death if I had to live alone in such a big place."
The three of them went home and had the most relaxing dinner ever.
With Wen Yang around, there's no need to worry about the atmosphere being depressing.
Even Yu Tian, who usually eats quickly and always puts down his bowl and chopsticks early, ate a little slower today and even ate half a bowl of rice more.
After dinner, Yu Tian returned to his small building.
Fang Li asked Aunt Rong to prepare some fruits and side dishes, and went to the audio-visual room with Wen Yang.
"I haven't felt this way in a long time."
The lighting in the audio-visual room was dim. There was a small table between the two of them, on which were placed a few side dishes, fruits, and a few bottles of wine.
The two of them clinked lips and chatted while watching a movie.
"The filming period for Divine Emperor Way is about three months. If the crew for the short drama is nearly ready, the first batch will be online soon."
Wen Yang suddenly leaned closer to Fang Li and said, "Lizi, I heard that Xingyao and Yu's movie is already halfway through. When are you planning to sue?"
"So soon?"
"With the Yu Group providing financial support and the Star Glory production team, this movie would have been quite interesting if nothing unexpected had happened. What a shame."
Why did he copy Li Zi's work when there were so many other people he could copy?
Wen Yang could imagine how those people would react when the film "Bright Star" was about to be completed but was sued for plagiarism.
A movie that makes me a little tipsy.
After all, they still have to go to work tomorrow. It would not be good to be late on the first day of Xingli’s establishment. After the movie ended, the two of them went back to their rooms.
Xu Fangli simply washed up, went to bed, buried her face in the pillow, and took a deep breath.
The scent of Han Xi was almost imperceptible, with a faint hint of pine resin lingering in the fabric fibers.
Fang Li thought that since they had been together for so long, she wouldn't feel anything after being apart for a few days. However, after only eighteen hours of separation, she had already started counting the minutes waiting for him to come back.
She didn't pay any attention to the movie she and Wen Yang watched in the audio-visual room tonight, but she did drink a lot of beer.
At this moment, the alcohol was beating gently in the blood vessels, giving the temples a comfortable numbness.
The electronic clock on the bedside table shows 23:17, which should be the same time in Singapore.
Is Han Xi's meeting over?
Did he check into the hotel?
Do you... miss her?
Fang Li turned over and grabbed her cell phone.
Her fingertips hovered over Han Xi's number and hesitated for a few seconds. Just as she was about to press it, the screen suddenly jumped to a video call invitation - from "Mr. Han".
Her heart skipped a beat, and her fingers pressed the answer button faster than her brain could.
"Still asleep?"
Han Xi's face appeared on the screen, with the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel suite as the background, and the night view of Singapore flashing behind him.
Fang Li held her phone, her eyes misty and hazy: "I just finished watching a movie with Wen Yang."
She tried not to sound too excited. "Are you done with the meeting?"
Han Xi loosened his tie, and this casual action made Fang Li's throat tighten.
He looked tired but surprisingly handsome, with a sharpness from the business negotiations still remaining between his brows, but the look he gave her was as soft as the sea under the moonlight.
"It ends at nine."
He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, revealing his collarbone. "Just got back to the hotel after dinner."
He raised an eyebrow. "Did you miss me?"
Fang Li's heart sank, and she buried her burning face in the quilt: "You've only been gone for a day, how could you..."
She herself didn't realize that there was a hint of coquettishness in her tone.
Han Xi chuckled, the camera shook, and he lay down on the bed.
This angle allowed Fang Li to see his open collar and a small part of his chest, his collarbone rising and falling with his breathing.
"I miss you."
Fang Li was silent.
He stared at her and suddenly asked, "Have you been drinking?"
Fang Li touched her burning cheeks and said, "A little bit...I drank it with Wen Yang."
"I'll accompany you next time."
Han Xi's eyes were deep, "What kind of wine are you drinking?"
"A few beers..."
Fang Li admitted quietly, "I controlled the amount and didn't drink too much."
Han Xi's voice deepened, carrying a familiar warning signal, "Put your phone away. I want to see you."
Fang Li paused slightly, then bit her lip and held the phone away so that he could see herself lying on the bed in her pajamas.
The neckline of the dress was too large, exposing one shoulder and collarbone.
Han Xi's breathing obviously stagnated for a moment: "Did you do it on purpose?"
"What?"
In the video, Han Xi's gaze shifted sideways and fell on her bare shoulders.
Fang Li realized it later and quickly pulled up her collar, but a hint of teasing flashed in her eyes, "Boss Han is still talking about me, could it be that you did it on purpose?"
"Um?"
Han Xi raised his eyebrows, and followed her gaze to the slightly open collar of his shirt. His eyes darkened and he deliberately tugged at his collar again, "Want to see?"
He suddenly began to unbutton his shirt with one hand, "I'm not stingy like Mrs. Han, you can look as much as you want."
This unexpected answer made Fang Li's heart tremble.
She thought about how crazy they were last night, right here on the bed, and her cheeks turned red.
The smell of alcohol suddenly rose in my head, as if some emotions were out of my control.
"Who wants to see it?"
She said suddenly, her voice softer than expected.
Han Xi smiled, but stopped unbuttoning his shirt. However, even so, most of his firm chest was exposed.
Fang Li avoided looking but couldn't help but peek.
Han Xi found it quite funny, then he turned the camera and pointed it at the headboard of the hotel bed, where there was a photo. It was a photo of the two of them taken at the vegetable market yesterday.
Fang Li was wearing a tweed windbreaker, and Han Xi held her in his arms. One of them looked at her in surprise, while the other was smiling.
"Mrs. Han, shouldn't you praise me?"
Han Xi turned the camera back, "Facing the bed."
Fang Li laughed, and her eyes suddenly felt a little hot.
She curled up in the quilt, revealing only a pair of eyes: "Han Xi..."
"Um?"
"When will you be back?"
Han Xi's eyes softened: "Originally scheduled for three days."
He paused. "But if the negotiations go well tomorrow, maybe we can squeeze it into two days."
He didn't say how long it would be delayed if things didn't go well, and he didn't want her to worry even if it was uncertain.
Fang Li felt a little relieved, but then she felt that two days seemed very long.
She buried her face in the pillow and muttered, "Don't worry...work is more important."
"Nothing is more important than you."
He said word by word, "Never."
