Chapter 20 020: Keep the door open

It's nearly eleven o'clock.

The group returned to the hotel lobby.

"We still have filming tomorrow, so we won't send you off."

Jiang Zuping waved her hands and said reluctantly, then she took out a jade pendant from her pocket and handed it to Xu Ning.

"I went to film a few days ago, and I asked for it from the eminent monk in the temple. I gave it to you. I hope you will have a prosperous career in the future, and you will always remember me."

Xu Ning took the jade pendant with a smile: "Thank you Zu Ping, I will teach you Kung Fu next time I go to Baodao."

Jiang Qinqin glared at Xu Ning angrily, and said angrily, "Little pervert, love one when you see one."

But she still smiled on the surface, and took a small box out of her bag.

"I originally wanted to give it to you later, but since Zu Ping gave it to you, I'll give it to you now."

What Jiang Qinqin was holding was an exquisite watch.

Xu Ning didn't do much research on this thing, and didn't know the brand.

Zhao Wenzhuo beside him said in surprise:

"Rolex, Xu Ning, our Qinqin is really good to you."

"Sister Qin, it's too precious."

Xu Ning waved his hand and refused. He had filmed scenes for so many days, and his total salary was just over [-] yuan. It is estimated that he could not even buy half a watch.

Jiang Qinqin didn't have many roles, and probably didn't get much money, and now she gave herself such a valuable thing all at once.

Make him feel like a jerk.

"Take it, take what my sister gives you."

Seeing that Xu Ning refused to accept it, Zhao Wenzhuo came out to smooth things over: "Haha, if you don't accept it, I will take it."

Seeing so many people watching in the hall, it would not be good if the stalemate continued.

He thought about accepting it first and returning it to her later.

"Then thank you, Miss Qin."

"Be polite to me...a little gift."

Jiang Qinqin waved her hand generously, then walked into the elevator with her arms around Jiang Zuping's shoulders.

Xu Ning and Zhao Wenzhuo were left behind.

"I think Qinqin is very interesting to you, what do you think?" Zhao Wenzhuo asked.

I didn't expect Brother Zhuo to be very gossip... He cares so much about Xu Ning and Jiang Qinqin tonight, maybe it has something to do with the relationship he had with a brother and sister when he was developing in Xiangjiang a few years ago.

In 1994, he met Anita Mui under the introduction of Leslie Cheung who was developing in Xiangjiang.

A year later, he fell in love with Anita Mui.

But this sister-brother relationship lasted less than a year, and they broke up because of a misunderstanding.

So when Zhao Wenzhuo saw Jiang Qinqin's admiration for Xu Ning, he couldn't help asking a few more questions while drinking.

"Brother Zhuo, I only see Qinqin as my sister."

"I understand, do as you wish."

"Well, I understand."

Now, this kind of relationship is neither close nor far away, maybe in a few months, Jiang Qinqin will forget what happened in the past few days.

……

Back to hotel room.

After washing up and climbing onto the bed, Xu Ning adjusted his sleeping position.

After a long time, Jiang Qinqin called.

Xu Ning went down and opened the door, leaving a gap as before. Not long after, Jiang Qinqin sneaked in.

It was another night of kung fu sparring, sweating profusely.

the next day,
until the sun rises three poles,

Xu Ning slowly opened his eyes.

He lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, thinking of his wonderful performance last night, and Jiang Qinqin's affectionate and selfless devotion, just by looking at her expression, he could tell that she was flying happily.

I have to say that my sister has a lot of tricks.

The next day.

Get up and take a shower.

At ten o'clock sharp, Xu Ning walked out of the hotel.

After sending a message to director Xu Jinliang, he took a taxi to the station.

Along the way, I saw many extras squatting on the side of the road waiting for the show, and many of them had numb expressions on their faces.

This kind of numbness, Xu Ning understands, is a kind of despair without hope.

Many people have neither professional skills nor college degrees, so they can only wait here day after day to be selected.

In fact, among these group performances, there are very few who can stand out.

Even becoming a special actor is a luxury for many people.

But who doesn't have a dream?

Many people think that they will be the one favored by God.

But it won't be long before reality hits the face hard.

In his previous life, Xu Ning also went to the capital with the mentality of becoming famous, became a glorious North drifter, and then returned home within a year.

For so many years,

Among so many ensemble performances,

Except Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Liying became big stars.

Everyone else becomes a stepping stone.

After leaving the Hengdian scenic spot, I came to the bus station, bought a bus ticket to Hangzhou for a few dollars, and arrived at the station with bumps and bumps along the way.

After arriving at Hangzhou Railway Station, I took the green leather train going north again.

It was not until the afternoon that Xu Ning arrived at Jinling Station by Xuanwu Lake.

As soon as you arrive in Jinling, you will feel a strong sense of history.

The tree is a plane tree, and the city is Jinling City.

The autumn in Jinling is very beautiful, perhaps because of the company of plane trees, or perhaps because of the confidence brought to her by the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

The sun is now setting.

On the golden phoenix tree avenue in the distance, there are pedestrians in twos and threes.

Without the bleakness of autumn, there is a kind of warm beauty instead.

Xu Ning stood in the square in front of the train station and looked at the golden Xuanwu Lake.

On a whim, he crossed Longpan Road and walked several hundred meters along Huanhu Road.

Feel the scenery of Xuanwu Lake at the end of 2001.

After walking for a while, he hailed a taxi on the side of the road and went straight to Jinling Normal University.

When he came to the bank near the school gate, Xu Ning took out 2000 yuan to give to his elder sister Xu Xinyan.

I remember the Spring Festival of the second year when my eldest sister graduated from my previous life.

The six members of Xu Ning's family sat in front of the TV and watched the Spring Festival Gala. During the chat, the eldest sister suddenly revealed a secret that the whole family did not know.

It turned out that Xu Xinyan had been preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination since the second semester of her junior year.

And at the beginning of 2002, she passed the re-examination of Jinling University.

But that year when Xu Ning worked as a group performer in the capital, not only did he not earn a penny, but he asked his family to give him money.

Families that were not well-to-do got worse.

If it is for myself to go to graduate school, the family simply cannot afford the money.

Therefore, Xu Xinyan considered again and again, but gave up this opportunity and chose to sign a work contract with a financial company.

This has also become a regret for the elder sister Xu Xinyan.

If he had studied as a graduate student at Jinling University back then, he would have had a different life after he came out.

This time, Xu Xinyan will have no regrets.

Now Xu Ning has become an [-]th-line actor. Although he is not well-known yet, it is no problem to earn money for his eldest sister to finish her graduate studies.

Just as he was passing by a small restaurant, he spotted a familiar figure.

"Miss?"

Xu Ning stood at the door and shouted happily.

Xu Xinyan, who was eating, didn't realize that someone was calling him, and was still eating rice noodles with her head down.

"Xu Xinyan."

Xu Ning called her name, and now not only Xu Xinyan looked over, but the three roommates who had dinner with her all looked at the door.

"Ah...Xiao Ning, why are you here?"

Xu Xinyan put down her chopsticks excitedly and ran out, took Xu Ning's hand and blamed:
"Why didn't you tell me in advance when you came to Jinling?"

Before Xu Ning could speak, Xu Xinyan said happily again:

"Have you figured it out and don't go to the capital to be an actor? It would be nice to go back to Jinling."

"Have you eaten yet? Come in quickly and have dinner with your sister."

"Sister, I haven't eaten yet."

Xu Ning grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

Xu Xinyan heard that he hadn't eaten yet, so she dragged him to the store.

This is a small shop specializing in casserole rice noodles. At this time, it is full of college students who come to eat.

"Xinyan, is this your brother?"

A tall and beautiful girl asked with a smile.

 Ask for recommendation, follow-up, and collection.
