Not long after Tang Miao returned to the chess and card room, Ji Junlin also walked in. He handed the water to Ke Yi, who raised her hand to take it and said something.
After Ke Yi finished speaking, Ji Junlin said, "There is no hot water, so I boiled it now."
The water purifier and water heater store water. If the hot water runs out, the water purifier needs to be reheated, and it takes some time. After Ji Junlin said this, Ke Yi didn't say anything, but took the cup and drank the water.
Both of them came back and the mahjong game continued.
After Tang Miao came back, her luck seemed to be better than before. In addition to her luck, her skills were also more sophisticated than before. He Xiao was playing cards here, and occasionally he would tell her some tricks on the mahjong table when he saw what cards she had played. Tang Miao learned and applied them on the spot, and was able to win one or two games by herself.
After drinking some water, Ke Yi at the table seemed to be less irritable, her grandmother was still happy, and Tang Miao gradually found the tricks and fun of mahjong. The atmosphere of the new game was even more intense than the previous games.
Another round was played here, and grandma won the game. She was happily talking to Uncle Zhou behind her about how well she played the game. Tang Miao was listening and laughing, and even got in a few words when grandma was talking about her cards.
He Xiao sat aside, watching the two people's harmonious exchange. After watching for a while, his phone on the card table suddenly vibrated.
He Xiao's phone vibrated, and Tang Miao, who was talking to his grandmother, turned around to take a look. He Xiao's phone was placed directly on the card table, so after taking a look, Tang Miao saw Qi Yuan's name jumping on the screen.
"Qi Yuan." Tang Miao said to the grandmother beside him.
After Tang Miao finished speaking, grandma looked at He Xiao and said, "Then go and answer it quickly. It should be a work matter."
After hearing what his grandmother said, He Xiao, who was holding the mobile phone, responded. He glanced at Tang Miao, and after Tang Miao smiled at him, He Xiao got up and left the card table.
After leaving the card table, He Xiao went out the door. Before closing the door, the people in the chess and card room heard his "Hello" before answering the phone.
Because He Xiao went out to make a phone call, the next round of mahjong was interrupted.
Because of He Xiao's sudden departure, the table seemed to have run out of topics and fell silent. Grandma came to her senses first and said to Ji Junlin.
Tonight, He Xiao and the others were playing mahjong, and Ji Junlin was watching from behind Ke Yi. Although watching them play mahjong was fun, it was much more fun not to join in the fun.
After grandma asked this, Ji Junlin glanced at her grandmother and then looked at Tang Miao who was sitting next to her.
Tang Miao was fiddling with mahjong with her head down. When Ji Junlin looked over, she seemed to notice his gaze and looked up at him.
Tang Miao raised his head and met Ji Junlin's gaze. Their eyes met and a faint smile and inquiry appeared in Tang Miao's eyes.
After all, the two of them were not very familiar with each other. After grandma asked this question, Ji Junlin suddenly looked at her, and she would normally feel a little strange.
When Tang Miao looked up, Ke Yi also noticed Tang Miao's gaze, and she glanced at Tang Miao first. Tang Miao lowered his gaze, and after meeting her gaze, he looked away without making a sound. Ke Yi watched her lower her head again, and her originally calmed emotions became faint again. She glanced sideways at Ji Junlin beside her, and Ji Junlin's gaze had already turned away and looked at the old lady when she looked at Tang Miao.
"No." Ji Junlin answered the old lady's question, "He Xiao should be back soon."
Ji Junlin said this, and the old lady said, "Come back if you want, just beat him up, don't worry about him."
The old lady was very particular about treating everyone equally. Although Ji Junlin was only her grandson-in-law, in her opinion, he was almost the same as her own child.
There is no reason to ignore one child while the other three children are playing.
Even though she said that, Ji Junlin still smiled at the old lady and said, "I'm not very good at fighting, so let He Xiao do it."
Ji Junlin refused twice, and the old lady knew that he really didn't want to fight anymore, so she didn't insist any more. After talking to Ji Junlin, the old lady went to talk to Tang Miao again.
The old lady was talking to Tang Miao over there. Ji Junlin looked at the old lady and then his eyes fell on Tang Miao. While he was doing this, Ke Yi, who was sitting at the card table, kept looking at him sideways.
As if he had noticed Ke Yi's gaze, Ji Junlin lowered his head and met her eyes.
Their eyes met, a sneer appeared in Ke Yi's eyes, and he retracted his gaze.
A few minutes later, He Xiao hung up the phone and returned to the chess and card room. When he arrived at the chess and card room, He Xiao returned to his seat and sat down. Grandma also stopped talking to Tang Miao and asked He Xiao a question.
After grandma asked this, He Xiao said, "There is a movie and they want me to write an interlude for it."
After He Xiao finished speaking, Ke Yi beside him also became interested and asked, "What movie is it? Which director directed it?"
After Ke Yi asked, He Xiao talked about the director and the movie. Hearing the director's name, Ke Yi was surprised and said, "A famous director!"
Not only is he a famous director, this movie is also an adaptation of a very famous traditional literary novel, an ancient political conspiracy film. Although this movie has not yet started shooting, there have been news leaks and promotions. The producer of the movie is the wife of this famous director. When his wife was soliciting investment, an investor said that he wanted to use the song written by He Xiao, and hoped that He Xiaoer would sing it.
For the producer, the investor's request is basically compliant. After the investor stated the request, the producer contacted Huang Zhi through many people, and Huang Zhi contacted Qi Yuan.
Ke Yi sat in the passenger seat and observed all of Ji Junlin's actions.
No one knew what the two were talking about, but they both had smiles on their faces.
The two of them drove Ji Junlin's car this afternoon. When the four of them left, the driver had already driven Ji Junlin's car over.
In this way, Tang Miao wouldn't be too sad staying at home.
She saw Ji Junlin glance at the front mirror before starting the car. After seeing him glance at the front mirror and then look away, Ke Yi did not hide her emotions.
"Let's go home." Ke Yi said this. After that, Ke Yi retracted his gaze, leaned against the car window and said.
After He Xiao finished speaking, Tang Miao looked at him, smiled and said, "Then let's go out together in the morning to play the attractions we have decided on today. After that, we will go to the hotel together. You can eat and talk about things there, and I will drive home. When you are almost done in the afternoon, tell me and I will drive to pick you up."
"I'm at home with my grandma."
He didn't say anything, and Ke Yi didn't care whether he said anything or not. Anyway, now, none of them had any way out.
"I'm sleepy."
She can drive. So the two of them can play as they want tomorrow morning. That is, during the afternoon and afternoon, He Xiao will be busy with work, and she will not have work, so she can take on the role of driver.
Seeing Tang Miao say this, He Xiao didn't say anything more, just said: "I'll talk to Qi Yuan after we finish playing cards."
When Tang Miao held her grandmother's hand, the old lady also held her hand lovingly, and she looked at Tang Miao with undisguised affection. Although the two had only known each other for two days, whether it was Tang Miao's personal charm or the old lady's love for him, the relationship between the two was not particularly restrained, but rather very comfortable.
The old lady said this jokingly, and after she finished speaking, everyone in the chess and card room burst into laughter.
He Xiao told him the address, Tang Miao thought for a moment and said, "What time is it tomorrow?"
After Tang Miao made these arrangements, He Xiao looked at her and asked, "Are you home alone?"
-
The two got in the car and closed the door, blocking out the noise and night wind outside. Ji Junlin sat in the driver's seat and glanced at the front mirror. In the front mirror, Tang Miao and He Xiao did not go back immediately, but stood in the yard looking at their car, ready to see them off.
Since I agreed, I will just write it when I get back. I don't know why he suddenly called me today.
When the two of them left, the old lady was not there, so He Xiao and Tang Miao went to the door to see them off.
He Xiao told Tang Miao what Qi Yuan had said on the phone. After he finished speaking, Tang Miao smiled and asked.
"At noon and in the afternoon." He Xiao said, "We'll eat together at noon and talk about things in the afternoon."
Tang Miao knew that place. It was the most high-end hotel in South City, and many government activities were held there. Although the director and producer were both from the entertainment industry, it felt more like a serious drama, so it was not surprising that they would be set there.
Tang Miao also laughed. She looked at her grandmother, held her hand, and turned back to talk to He Xiao.
Ji Junlin glanced at the rear mirror, then looked away and started the car.
"Where is it?"
Tang Miao arranged the itinerary for tomorrow.
After He Xiao finished speaking, Tang Miao smiled at him, and his hand dropped down from the table, pulling He Xiao's fingers across the table.
When Qi Yuan heard that it was that director and that it was a movie adapted from that novel, he immediately became interested. He didn't care that He Xiao was visiting relatives in South City these days. He had been calling non-stop since yesterday, hoping that he could take the next step.
After the car drove over, a few people said goodbye briefly, and then Ji Junlin and Ke Yi got into the car one after another.
"They said the investors and director are in South City, and they hope I can meet with them tomorrow." He Xiao said.
His movements were not big, but the carriage was so small, quiet and dark, that she could catch every glance and every subtle movement of his.
She looked at Ji Junlin, sneered, and said, "Did you see it?"
Although the two came to see them off, they looked more like a couple standing casually at the door. It was a bit cold, and when Tang Miao came out, she put on a coat and put it on her shoulders. She looked over here and looked up to talk to He Xiao.
It was almost ten o'clock, and Uncle Zhou reminded the old lady that it was time to rest. The old lady listened to Uncle Zhou and played a few more rounds on the mahjong table. When it was really ten o'clock, she left the mahjong table.
Qi Yuan contacted He Xiao yesterday about the movie theme song, and He Xiao told her a rough outline. At that time, He Xiao agreed, after all, Qi Yuan liked it so much.
After she finished speaking, Ji Junlin didn't say anything.
After the old lady left the mahjong table, the younger generation stood up and saw her off. The old lady left the mahjong room and went back to her room. After she returned to her room, it was almost time for Ke Yi and Ji Junlin to leave.
If he is not here tomorrow, Tang Miao will indeed have to stay in the villa alone.
The old lady was in a good mood today and played mahjong until after nine o'clock in the evening.
After Ke Yi finished speaking, Tang Miao looked at He Xiao and asked, "Is there something that Qi Yuan wants to talk about?"
After He Xiao finished speaking, the grandmother who was listening beside him said unhappily: "What are you talking about? Am I not a human being?"
