Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 106 New Year's Eve
Celebrating the New Year in a hotel is the norm for some actors.

Of course, several floors of the hotel were taken over by the crew, to be precise, it was the New Year's Eve with the crew.

However, the crew of "New Police Story" is different, most of the people are from Xiangjiang. Today's New Year's Eve, and the crew has not started work yet, so naturally they go back to their respective homes.

Including Cheng Long, including Chen Musheng and other members of the director team, this is the case.

Perhaps some crew members and actors did not go home and stayed in the hotel, but for the floor where the protagonists such as Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei lived, there were only Chu Xuan, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli.

When the sun sets, only the afterglow remains.

There are couplets pasted on the doors of the suite where Chu Xuan lives and the suite where Concubine Liu Yi lives opposite. According to the words of Xiangjiang people, posting couplets is also called posting Huichun.

On the top of the door, a big red lantern was hung high, and the faint light in the lantern was faint.

This small light is not as good as the dim light in the corridor of the hotel, but it is more festive and can also create a Chinese New Year atmosphere.

In the living room of Concubine Liu Yi's suite, the three looked through the menu and prepared to call to order.

"This [Poon Choi] must be ordered. I heard that every household in Xiangjiang eats it during the Chinese New Year, symbolizing family reunion." Liu Xiaoli pointed.

"[Fat Cai Oyster Sauce], get rich next year." Chu Xuan ordered a dish.

"I want to eat [New Year Cake], which symbolizes my promotion every year." Concubine Liu Yi blinked.

"Eat less, you will get fat easily." Chu Xuan laughed.

Concubine Liu Yi rolled her eyes, and while her mother wasn't paying attention, she stretched out her hand and pinched Chu Xuan.

The three of them then ordered another dish, which was almost done.

After all, there are few people, and it seems that if you order too much, you can't finish it.

It's at the hotel, and if it's not enough, you can add more dishes at any time.

However, before Liu Xiaoli was about to call to order, Chu Xuan glanced at the menu and said, "Auntie, can I have a bottle of white wine?"

Concubine Liu Yi pursed her lips, ready to read a joke.

Liu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Auntie brought four bottles of red wine with her. She said she would treat you to a good drink today. What else would you order?"

Chu Xuan thought for a while, and said, "Auntie, in fact, we don't have to drink during the Chinese New Year. It's good to be happy."

Concubine Liu Yi pursed her lips and smiled happily.

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Chu Xuan and said, "Do you want to be happy without drinking?"

Chu Xuan nodded.

Liu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Then you mean that drinking with auntie makes you unhappy."

Chu Xuan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, as if Liu Xiaoli had killed him with one sentence.

Chu Xuan stood up, waved his hands and said, "Auntie, I didn't mean that."

Concubine Liu Yi watched Chu Xuan quarreling with her mother, she felt extremely amused, the smile on her face never faded from the very beginning.

Liu Xiaoli smiled and said, "Then drink, if you don't want to drink red wine..."

Liu Xiaoli looked down at the wine menu, raised her eyebrows and said to Chu Xuan, "On this menu, except for white wine, you can choose whatever you want."

Chu Xuan was silent for a while, and said, "I still drink red wine."

Seeing Chu Xuan compromise, Concubine Liu Yi couldn't help laughing.

While waiting for the food, the phones of the three people suddenly rang non-stop.

For Liu Xiaoli and Concubine Liu Yi, it was natural that family members called to congratulate each other on the New Year.

For Chu Xuan, only close people in the circle such as Wang Jinhua, Yang Tianzhen, Hu Jun, and Li Yuqiang called to wish him well, and the rest, such as Lin Zhiying, Cheng Hao, Liu Tao, Lin Xinru, etc., just sent a text message.

In the text message content, there is a set of blessing words, and the blessing idioms are not repeated.

It seems so cultured, it looks like a copy and paste group post.

However, being able to send group text messages with him also shows that these people still remember themselves.

In other words, with his current popularity, it is worth sending text messages to get close to them.

After all, all the text messages have been sent, so he naturally has to reply one.

In order to add some fun, Chu Xuan used punctuation marks between the words to create one expression after another, which looks very fashionable in this era and will definitely make people's eyes shine.

Sure enough, a friend wrote.

Lin Xinru: "Chu Xuan, you still know how to play, it's so interesting!"

Liu Tao: "Okay, save it."

Cheng Hao: "My sister copied it."

Jiang Xin: "Wow, you can still play like this!"

Su Chang: "I want to forward it, there is no charge, right?"

Facing the replies from his friends, Chu Xuan also smiled and stopped paying attention.

After processing the text messages, Liu Xiaoli and Concubine Liu Yi also finished their phone calls.

At the same time, the waiter also brought the dishes together.

The three sat down at the table, and Liu Xiaoli opened a glass of red wine.

To Chu Xuan's surprise, Concubine Liu Yi also picked up a bottle of wine.

"You drink too?"

"wine."

Concubine Liu Yi blinked at Chu Xuan.

"It's okay to drink something during the Chinese New Year." Liu Xiaoli said.

Chu Xuan nodded, turned around, walked to the TV and turned on the TV, saying: "It's 8 o'clock soon, even if you don't watch the Spring Festival Gala, you can still feel the atmosphere when you listen to the sound."

"Indeed." Liu Xiaoli poured the wine and said, "Come on, let's eat."

Chu Xuan sat back on the chair, seeing Liu Xiaoli preparing to serve the wine, Chu Xuan also reached out to pick up the wine glass.

But Concubine Liu Yi glanced at the TV, smiled and said, "The Spring Festival Gala still has a 2-minute countdown, shall we have a drink together after the countdown is over?"

Chu Xuan and Liu Xiaoli glanced at each other. Naturally, they would not refuse Concubine Liu Yi's proposal.

The countdown in the upper right corner of the TV is slowly decreasing.

When the countdown ended, the TV screen changed, and the cheerful music of the "Spring Festival Overture" symphony sounded, the three of them raised their smiling faces, and at the same time raised their glasses and clinked over the center of the dining table.

"Happy Chinese New Year! Good luck!"

Accompanied by the festive New Year greetings from the four hosts, Ni Ping, Zhu Jun, Zhou Tao, and Li Yong, Liu Xiaoli raised her glass again before Chu Xuan had a good meal, and said, "Chu Xuan, Auntie respects you."

Chu Xuan frowned, and said, "Why does Auntie respect me?"

Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan and said, "Without your advice to Auntie, Sissy would not be able to get this role, so Auntie would like to thank you."

Chu Xuan shook his head and said, "Auntie, we had already had a drink last time, and this matter is over."

Liu Xiaoli raised her eyebrows and said, "Have you passed? Well, Auntie respects you, there is no reason."

Suddenly, Concubine Liu Yi who was eating the food let out a laugh.

Chu Xuan sighed, raised his glass and said, "Auntie, I respect you."

"It's done." Liu Xiaoli said, and drank it all by herself.

Chu Xuan was stunned for a moment, then pouted his mouth bitterly, he had no choice but to be bored.

However, just a few minutes later, Chu Xuan took a few mouthfuls of vegetables to fill his stomach.

Liu Xiaoli picked up the wine glass again, and said with a smile: "Chu Xuan, we are able to come to Xiangjiang together, and you and Qianqian joined the same crew again, this is fate. Come, for fate, let's have a drink."

Chu Xuan put down his chopsticks, helplessly supported his forehead, and said, "Auntie, can you rest for a while?"

Concubine Liu Yi laughed uncontrollably, thinking this scene was too funny.

Liu Xiaoli didn't speak, but kept looking at Chu Xuan with a glass of wine in her eyes with a smile in her eyes.

Chu Xuan had no choice but to raise his wine glass to touch Liu Xiaoli, and then drank it down.

However, only 5 minutes passed.

Liu Xiaoli took a bite of her food, put down her chopsticks on the bowl, picked up her wine glass again, and said, "Chu Xuan, Auntie and Qianqian seldom go out for the New Year. This time, we go out for a new year and spend it with you again. This is really the fate of fate. Come, for the fate of fate, let's have a drink."

Chu Xuan's face froze as he lowered his head to eat the food. He raised his head, unable to laugh or cry, and said, "Auntie, don't be like this. It's only 8:10, can you let me watch "Spring Festival Gala" a few more times?"

After the words fell, Liu Xiaoli and Concubine Liu Yi laughed a few times at the same time.

"Let's talk after drinking this glass of wine." Liu Xiaoli rested her left hand on the palm of the table and propped her chin, and raised her glass with her right hand towards Chu Xuan. Although she had a smile on her face, she looked like she couldn't do without drinking.

Seeing this, Chu Xuan looked like he was about to cry, but he let out a long breath, drank the wine in one gulp, and said, "Auntie, it's fine to drink enough for the Chinese New Year. I don't think it's necessary to get me drunk. not good."

Liu Xiaoli frowned, and said: "Auntie is a small drinker, how could she get you drunk?"

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Yi laughed, overjoyed.

Chu Xuan couldn't help laughing, and lowered his head slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Auntie, I drank too much that day, it's nonsense after drinking."

"No way, the only way to tell the truth is after drinking."

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi looked at each other, one was helpless, the other was full of smiles.

"Auntie, even if you get me drunk today, you can't take revenge, and you can't win."

Hearing what Chu Xuan said, Liu Xiaoli couldn't help raising her eyebrows, and Concubine Liu Yi also looked at Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan blinked his eyes and said, "Even if I'm drunk, I won't cry."

Liu Xiaoli was startled.

Concubine Liu Yi smiled and patted the table, then pointed at Chu Xuan, and said with a smile on her face, "Mom, get him!"

Chu Xuan suppressed a smile.

Liu Xiaoli didn't respond to her demeanor, she wiped her mouth gracefully with a tissue, then raised her wine glass with a smile on her face, and said softly: "There's nothing to say, drink."

Chu Xuan picked up the wine glass and touched it, and said: "Auntie, I also gave up resisting today, and I will get drunk when I get drunk. But I have a merciless request. There will be fireworks at 12 o'clock tonight, so can you let me drink again after 12 o'clock?" Drunk? Otherwise, my years will be wasted."

Liu Xiaoli didn't tense up, the corner of her mouth curled up, her face was calm.

Concubine Liu Yi felt so amused, she also raised her glass and said, "Come, let's have a drink together."

The three of them clink their glasses and drank it all in one go.

Perhaps Chu Xuan's request was accepted by Liu Xiaoli. In the next moment, Liu Xiaoli stopped drinking so fast, but slowed down.

Chu Xuan heaved a sigh of relief, he could finally eat and talk normally, and watch the Spring Festival Gala from time to time.

The current Spring Festival Gala is still pretty good. Whether it’s the crosstalk by artists like Hou Yaohua and Feng Gong, or the sketches by Guo Donglin and Cai Ming, or some grand songs and dances, they are all worth seeing. They don’t have the flashy feeling of the traffic era, and they are all festive , cheerful and down to earth.

Just like that, when it was close to 12 o'clock in the evening, even if the drinking speed slowed down, Chu Xuan's face was already slightly drunk, and his eyes were slightly dazed.

"Drunk?" Liu Yifei asked Chu Xuan.

"It's almost there." Chu Xuan said truthfully.

After finishing speaking, Chu Xuan looked at Concubine Liu Yi in surprise, and said, "You can. Although it's fruit wine, it has a higher alcohol content than some beers. Are you fine?"

Concubine Liu Yi wrinkled her nose, and let out a "hmm", a little arrogant.

Liu Xiaoli smiled, and said with a slightly drunken face: "Both her father and I drink, it's probably hereditary."

As soon as the voice fell, the midnight bell had come.

Suddenly, fireworks rose outside the window, colorful and gorgeous.

On the TV, the prelude to "Unforgettable Tonight" sounded.

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan and said, "Chu Xuan, does your room face the sea?"

Chu Xuan nodded slightly, "Mmm".

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli raised her glass and said, "Come on, finish this glass and go to the window of Chu Xuan's room to watch the fireworks."

Hearing this, Chu Xuan took a deep breath, raised his glass to finish the last glass of wine, and then went out with Liu Xiaoli and Concubine Liu Yi to his room.

—by the window.

Liu Xiaoli opened all the windows, and in the direction of Victoria Harbor not far away, countless fireworks rose from the ground.

The lights on the other side of the harbor were bright, and the jubilant crowd of people was faintly visible.

As the fireworks rose, the sky above the sea was dotted with stars, and then exploded like catkins, colorful and filled the sky.

The three of them looked up at the starry sky and watched this scene quietly.

Suddenly, maybe there was a party somewhere, and a burst of singing came.

[The small river bends and flows southward.

Flow to Xiangjiang, take a look.

The Pearl of the Orient, my love.

Whether your style is romantic or not. 】

The singing sounded in her ears, Liu Xiaoli looked up at the starry sky with a smile, and murmured: "Qiqian, that year, your grandma cried to death, do you remember?"

Concubine Liu Yi regained her senses from the beautiful scenery of the fireworks, and thought about the scene when her grandma saw the news on TV and burst into tears. Divorced this year, and still fighting for my custody, if my father refuses, you..."

Concubine Liu Yi suddenly shut up.

Liu Xiaoli was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said softly: "I will force you to die."

Chu Xuan's heart was also shocked, because the conversation between Concubine Liu Yi and Liu Xiaoli made him a little sober from alcohol.

After Liu Xiaoli said a word, she was speechless for a long time, perhaps thinking of some bad memories, tears flickered in her eyes.

Concubine Liu Yi might be a little drunk, she suddenly said this sentence, the next moment she realized, although she didn't say the words, it made her feel nervous, but seeing her mother was speechless for a while, she could only remain silent.

As for the family affairs of the mother and daughter, Chu Xuan naturally would not speak out.

Just like that, the atmosphere by the window fell into complete silence.

After a while, Liu Xiaoli was still looking up at the fireworks in the sky, but she asked Chu Xuan, "Chu Xuan, what Qianqian said...do you think Auntie did something wrong?"

Concubine Liu Yi's heart skipped a beat, she didn't expect her mother to ask Chu Xuan such a question.

Chu Xuan was also stunned, he didn't expect Liu Xiaoli to ask such a question.

Chu Xuan opened his mouth, at first he didn't know what to say, and the alcohol in his head also made his thoughts a little confused. After about ten seconds passed, he whispered: "Auntie, you are right if you think it is right, you are Qian Qian Mom, if a mother thinks it is good for her children, then whatever she does is right, no one else has a say. At least, without you, Sissy would not be a star; at least, Sissy is happy with you now."

Concubine Liu Yi blinked and said to her mother, "Yes, Mom, I am very happy now."

Liu Xiaoli turned her head to look at her daughter, and they looked at each other, one with doting eyes and the other with a soft face.

Liu Xiaoli stretched out her right hand to grab her daughter's shoulder, but at the next moment, Liu Xiaoli stretched out her left hand to grab Chu Xuan's shoulder for no reason.

Chu Xuan drank too much, he could feel Liu Xiaoli's movements, but his confused thoughts and dizziness left him with no energy and space to think.

But Concubine Liu Yi saw her mother picking her and Chu Xuan from one side to the other. Seeing this scene, she blinked and a deep smile appeared on her face.

In this way, an elder led two younger generations, in a quiet and warm atmosphere, admiring the beauty outside the window.

……

late at night.

The bustle outside is still there, but the people in the room have dispersed.

Chu Xuan was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, the slight sound of snoring and the smell of alcohol in the air expressed his fatigue.

Concubine Liu Yi took a towel and wiped Chu Xuan's face while sleeping unconscious, and seeing Chu Xuan's sound sleep, she pursed her lips and smiled, then stretched out her hands and pulled the quilt to cover Chu Xuan more tightly.

Concubine Liu Yi went to the bathroom to wash the towels again with hot water, and then hung them on the wall. Finally, she came to the door and looked at Chu Xuan again. When the lights were dimmed and the door was closed, she quietly left, ready to go back to her room to rest.

What she didn't expect was that, in the darkness, suddenly came the mother's singing.

【Dont let Tears be my company through dark night,
Don't let your kisses linger,

I forgot who I once loved,
Gradually get used to loneliness. 】

"Mother."

Concubine Liu Yi shouted, and stood in front of her mother's bed in the dark, with a faint melancholy lingering in her heart.

She knew that what she said suddenly must have made her mother feel bad.

Once my mother drank and was in a bad mood, she would sing some very sad songs.

She knows mom well.

"Talking too much." Concubine Liu Yi blamed herself.

Hearing her daughter's call, Liu Xiaoli's face could not be seen clearly in the dark, and she only heard her say casually: "Chu Xuan is asleep?"

Concubine Liu Yi changed into her pajamas and went to another bed, folded the quilt and said, "Brother Xuan fell asleep in seconds."

Liu Xiaoli muttered, "Small drink."

Hearing her mother mocking Chu Xuan, Concubine Liu Yi smiled softly.

The next moment, Concubine Liu Yi changed the subject in order to stop her mother from thinking about being in a bad mood, but said, "Mom, but you haven't succeeded in taking revenge. You cried last time, but brother Xuan didn't cry this time."

Liu Xiaoli turned over and turned her back to Concubine Liu Yi, perhaps because she was getting more sleepy, she said in a soft voice: "One day I will make him cry."

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Yi smiled, lay down on the bed, covered her with the quilt, and said, "Good night, Mom."

However, Liu Xiaoli had no echo, only the faint sound of breathing echoed in the room.

Concubine Liu Yi turned sideways, and in the darkness she vaguely saw that her mother was already fast asleep, she whispered: "Mom, just sleep and you'll be fine."

After finishing speaking, she couldn't help but recall everything that happened today.

Going shopping with Chu Xuan, holding hands with Chu Xuan in the crowd, celebrating the New Year with Chu Xuan for the first time, Chu Xuan and his mother playfully bickering, Chu Xuan and his mother fight wine, and she is also with Chu Xuan and his mother After drinking, and watching the fireworks together at the end, my mother even put her and Chu Xuan's shoulders on the shoulders at the same time.

Scene after scene of memories made Concubine Liu Yi feel warm and beautiful. She smiled sweetly, then closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep.
