Perfumer of the Republic of China

Even though Liu Yanhuan has been blending incense for so many years in modern times, she has never encountered such a strange request.

He rubbed his forehead and said, "I can give it a try, but I don't guarantee it."

Zhou Xuanxuan was already very grateful for such an answer.

She handed over the problem to Liu Yanhuan, and she joined the crew to film.

On the other hand, Qin Feiran's assistant, Guo Bin, suddenly received a request from the third master, asking for tickets to the Lido Cabaret immediately.

The Lido Cabaret is one of the most popular entertainment venues in Ningcheng, because of the presence of "Evening Fragrance" Xu Huanxian.Every time Xu Huanxian performs on stage, Lido tickets are sold out.

And today, it happened to be Xu Huanxian's venue.

In the evening, Liu Yanhuan recorded the final reagent, and just after stretching his muscles, he saw Qin Feiran's car.

Looking from where he was sitting, the old-fashioned general-purpose headlights cast a halo on the window edge, and Liu Yanhuan raised a smile towards the halo that he hadn't even noticed.

It's been a long time since I've had a date after get off work.

Liu Yanhuan recalled that when she went to a nursing home to do volunteer work, she heard an old man recall the past.The old man said that he missed the era without mobile phones, QQ, and WeChat.

Because of that era, time passed very slowly, and every minute and every second is worth recalling.Because couples cannot communicate all the time, they cherish every minute and every second together.

At this moment, Liu Yanhuan suddenly understood what the old man said.

He happily ran to the car and knocked on the window: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

"My heart has been waiting for a long time." Liu Yanhuan heard Qin Feiran say this.

There was an uncontrollable tremor in her heart, and Liu Yanhuan felt that half of her cheeks must be very red.

In this era without any auxiliary props, love words have become a common weapon.

Seeing him getting into the car, Qin Feiran suddenly said the moment he stepped on the clutch: "Actually, I used to think that I don't need to spend time in karaoke halls and dance halls, but now I want to stay with you in those places for a while longer."

Liu Yanhuan blushed and his heart beat fast, he smiled and said, "Me too, as long as I can stay with you, no matter where or what I do, it's fine."

The tenderness and sweetness in the car was so irresistible, Liu Yanhuan took out a small bottle from his bosom.

"Here, I tuned this specially for you."

Qin Feiran looked at the crystal-clear glass bottle, and his heart was agitated: "Did you adjust it specially?"

"Well, although the water of Cologne is also very suitable for you, but when I look at some things, I will think of you unconsciously. For example, during the day, I peeled an orange, and when I peeled it, I thought of you. Looking at the road Someone smokes in Yazi, and I think of you again after looking at it. I really despise myself who is so inattentive to work, so I simply threw everything that reminded me of you into a bottle of incense."

"It's the bottle you see now. I named it Huai Mo."

As soon as Liu Yanhuan finished speaking, her lips and tongue were blocked.

Qin Feiran turned the steering wheel, and the car veered to a stop.

The two kissed like no one else.

In a daze, Liu Yanhuan was still thinking, um, Huaimo's fragrance should also add the fresh mint flavor in the mouth.

Qin Feiran found that once Liu Yanhuan recognized his own intentions, he would become extraordinarily frank and straightforward.

It just so happened that he liked Liu Yanhuan's candid appearance.

At the end of the kiss between the two, Liu Yanhuan glanced at his watch and laughed, "We have to hurry up."

When the car arrived at the entrance of the karaoke hall, Liu Yanhuan couldn't help but look around curiously.

Different from ordinary restaurants and restaurants, there is a very dazzling signboard at the entrance of the karaoke hall, colorful lights are flickering, and men and women walk in the door arm in arm.

When Qin Feiran arrived at the door, the waiter bowed to him: "Third Master, Sister Ye has ordered you to reserve a good seat for you, this way please."

When Liu Yanhuan entered the venue, he realized that the so-called karaoke hall was a spacious hall with seven or eight rows of seats in front and a large open space in the back.

The waiter directly led Qin Feiran and Liu Yanhuan to the center of the first row, and said respectfully, "This is the seat that Sister Ye specially ordered for you."

This position is in the middle of the vision, and you can see the whole picture of the stage without any obstructions in front, which can be described as a unique advantage.

"Third Master's social circle, the famous No. [-] evening scent in Ningcheng is also your old acquaintance." Liu Yanhuan stared intently at the radiant stage, seemingly inadvertently mentioned it.

"Ye Lai Xiang is Xu Huanxian's stage name. She has sung on stage in Lido for many years. As you can see, this is not an ordinary karaoke hall, and many parties will use this venue to hold banquets. I have to attend, The more times you come, the more you will naturally get to know each other.”

After saying this, Qin Feiran realized that Liu Yanhuan had been staring at him with a hint of a smile on his lips.

He came back to his senses and touched his nose: "How can I explain this to you?"

The villain in Liu Yanhuan's heart was laughing heartily, but she put on a serious face.

When the show started, the open space behind was already full of people, Liu Yanhuan only felt his eyes dimmed, and the cheers suddenly burst out.

There was only a sound of "唰啦", and in the light, a woman in a short cheongsam and a top hat descended from the sky, and those two big white legs were particularly eye-catching against the white light.

"This is the golden cave, this is the hometown of gentleness, if you come here once, you will never forget to return..." The blunt lyrics were beyond Liu Yanhuan's expectations, but the woman's soft voice seemed to be stained with honey. Little by little, it flows into the hearts of the audience.

"Good! Good!" Liu Yanhuan heard cheers from behind.Just as he was distracted, he suddenly smelled a strong fragrance. The smell of rosemary was arrogant and domineering, which matched the smiling person in front of him very well.

"According to the usual practice, the guest who accepts my flowers must come to the stage."

When the lights came on, Xu Huanxian stared straight at Liu Yanhuan.

Liu Yanhuan looked at the roses in her bosom, got up and went on stage.

Xu Huanxian was smiling one second, then changed his face the next second, pointing at Liu Yanhuan and sobbing: "You, you don't come up to my house every time you pass by my house to take a look at me, tell me, why are you Won't you come and see me?"

Ye Laixiang is obviously good at acting, and she is good at pretending to be wronged and pitiful, but the guests who are invited to the stage often fail to stand up and become the joke of the night. If they are thin-skinned, they may blush on the spot.

However, Liu Yanhuan calmly took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom and handed it to Xu Huanxian: "Everyone says that 'Ningcheng's No. [-] Voice' Ye Laixiang's singing voice is excellent, and if she becomes hoarse from crying, it will ruin her singing." The style of singing."

"Stop crying, wipe."

Xu Huanxian was originally planning to play tricks, but now he was stunned for a moment when he saw someone accompany her in this scene with full affection.

Liu Yanhuan saw that she had taken the handkerchief, and continued to persuade her: "I know, it's my fault not to visit you, but you didn't invite me to your house, I'm afraid it would be abrupt if I went there rashly." Beauty, what do you think?"

Where did Xu Huanxian encounter such iron teeth and copper teeth? He didn't know how to fight back at once, and finally realized that he had been tricked, but felt that the man in front of him was excellent in both demeanor and conversation. up.

With the opening scene, Xu Huanxian sang a few masterpieces in an orderly manner, and did not act like a monster.

During the intermission, she came to Qin Feiran's side, but her eyes stayed on Liu Yanhuan's face: "It turns out that he is a friend of the third master. No wonder he looks good and can speak well. This repertoire has been on stage for so many years. You He was the first person to make me forget what to say."

Xu Huanxian under the stage is not as glamorous as on the stage. On the contrary, she keeps a straight face as if she is used to it, and she is a little lonely when she is not smiling.

She likes to drink foreign wine with ice, Liu Yanhuan watched her pour herself three cups in a row, and finally stopped her when the fourth cup was about to drink.

"Drinking on an empty stomach is the most harmful, so stop drinking."

Xu Huanxian turned his head, the heavy eyeshadow couldn't hide his fatigue: "Don't worry, I drink well, I won't pour a thousand cups."

"What's so good about it?" Liu Yan laughed happily, "I can't even get drunk after drinking, and I can't forget the things I want to forget. What a pain."

Xu Huanxian finally turned his head and said seriously, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"I heard that you, as the 'No. [-] Voice in Ningcheng', were the object of competition from major record companies back then. EMI Records once wanted to buy out your management contract at a high price, but you quit at the most glorious time. , it was not re-sung in Lido until many years later, can you tell me the reason?"

Xu Huanxian frowned slightly: "Third Master, you just let him play my tricks."

Qin Feiran was noncommittal.

Xu Huanxian looked at him for a while, and saw that he didn't come forward to stop him, so he could only snort and say, "The reason is very simple. There are beasts in every circle, and what they value is not my voice, but my body. I don't care. If I wanted to, they would block me indefinitely, suspend my work, and cut off my source of income. In this circle, not everyone can have Zhou Xuanxuan's capital, and most people are just begging for life in the cracks. Who is noble."

"Then what kind of person is Zhou Xuanxuan in your eyes?"

"You're the first man I've ever seen, staring at me and mentioning other women."

Liu Yanhuan smiled indifferently, leaned over and kissed Qin Feiran's cheek.

Xu Huanxian's eyes widened in the kiss like a dragonfly's touch of water.

She heard Liu Yanhuan say: "It's not that you are not charming enough, but that I am just like the third master."

Xu Huanxian's three views were refreshed, especially when he saw Qin Feiran hugging Liu Yanhuan's waist without hesitation, he was convinced in his heart: In this terrible world, women have nothing to do with men flirting.

Xu Huanxian took a sip of wine to suppress his shock, and the topic returned to Zhou Xuanxuan.

"What kind of person is Zhou Xuanxuan?" Xu Huanxian turned the wine glass, "You really stumped me with this question."

"Actually, don't think that we used to be colleagues. With our identities, we also have self-knowledge. It's easy not to get close to Zhou Xuanxuan, so she is actually quite lonely in the circle and has no friends. But she is very nice. Never put on airs."

"Everyone in this industry knows that you have to find a personal design to package yourself up. Whether you are a perfect goddess or a bad girl, you must have an image that is presented in front of people. You also know that Zhou Xuanxuan's image is a harmless person. The perfect goddess, so many times, I am not sure whether it is her fulfilling her personality or her nature."

"However, I don't know what other people think. I don't envy her at all. Don't look at Lido as a mixed bag. I want to shout here. A bunch of people stand up to help me seek justice. I can't live the hypocritical life behind the screen."

"You men are so superficial. When you see the goddess of perfection, you want to praise her to the sky. In fact, there is no perfect person in this world."

As Xu Huanxian said, he drank the wine in the glass, pointed to the glass in front of Qin and Liu, and said with a smile, "I'll pay for your drinks."

The knowledgeable and interesting woman left, leaving behind Liu Yanhuan and Qin Feiran.

Liu Yanhuan let out a soft sigh: "My client Zhou Xuanxuan posed a difficult problem for me. How to adjust the fragrance that crosses the ages is the artistic conception she is satisfied with. I haven't been exposed to such a difficult challenge for a long time."

Qin Feiran took out a document and spread it out in front of Liu Yanhuan: "After reading this, you may find it more challenging."

Liu Yanhuan looked down, it turned out to be the restructuring plan of Shaohua Xiangfang.

"The stock exchange in Ningcheng was established recently, and all the businessmen are gearing up to support their own industry financing. Shaohua Xiangfang also wants to get a piece of the pie."

Liu Yanhuan picked up the plan and looked at it carefully.

"Taihe Bank has received the entrustment from Shaohua Xiangfang, and is about to issue 300 million yuan of corporate bonds with an annual interest rate of [-]%. I am afraid you should pay attention to the distribution of shares."

"I see." Liu Yanhuan agreed, but her heart sank.

The Wen family's upcoming reorganization was kept a secret, and Liu Yanhuan hadn't heard anything about it for so many days.

"Looking at the current situation, they seem to want to turn Shaohua Xiangfang into a family business. As the shopkeeper of the branch, you are also related to the Wen family. At the current stage, I suggest you still hold shares."

Looking at Qin Feiran's concerned eyes, Liu Yanhuan's heart warmed, he nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will make an appointment with them."

"Would you like me to go with you?"

"Sitting there with your big Buddha, no one else has the heart to talk about it." Liu Yanhuan leaned into Qin Feiran's arms, "Don't worry, I have my sense of proportion."

Liu Yanhuan really has a sense of proportion in his heart, he likes to prioritize when things happen, and the most urgent thing is to make the perfume entrusted by Zhou Xuanxuan.

Liu Yanhuan decided to reduce the sweetness this time. The top note is the prominent peach fragrance, and then uses the aroma of apricot as a foreshadowing. The freshness of the apricot well neutralizes the sweetness of the peach fragrance.

Liu Yanhuan repeatedly adjusted the ratio, and when everything was in full swing, Zhou Xuanxuan officially joined the crew.

In order to empathize with the character, she moved to the former residence of Li Xiangjun.

Li Xiangjun's former residence was built along the water, and a special water gate was set up to facilitate Li Xiangjun's access to the boat.

Zhou Xuanxuan cleaned up the wing room of her former residence, and moved in with her own belongings.

In the stories passed down by later generations, it is the place where she spent happy time with her lover.After Hou Fangyu left, Li Xiangjun dressed in the mirror during the day, leaned on the railing to look at it, and went out of the water gate to the painting boat at night, absent-mindedly playing for the powerful.

Zhou Xuanxuan was experiencing Li Xiangjun's life. During the day, she locked herself in the house and did not take a step. At night, she stood on the barren painting boat, which lasted most of the night.

That night, she stood on the painting boat as usual, gazing at the bright moonlight in the sky, but in the silence, she heard footsteps behind her.

Before Zhou Xuanxuan turned her head, Zheng Huai's gentle voice came from behind.

"I've been out for so long, and I don't know what to wear."

A windbreaker was draped over Zhou Xuanxuan's shoulders.

Zhou Xuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Zheng, thank you."

The person who came was Zheng Huai, the actor who played Hou Fangyu in this play.

"Xuanxuan, do you know, just now I saw your lonely and independent back from behind, and suddenly felt that Li Xiangjun in the play really came outside."

This sentence gave Zhou Xuanxuan great motivation, and they stood side by side on the painting boat and chatted for a long time.

It turns out that they have many similar interests and hobbies. For example, Zhou Xuanxuan likes to play chess, and Zheng Huai is also proficient in the game. For example, they both like literary and lyrical movies.

This reminded Zhou Xuanxuan of the scene where she and Qin Feihong went to the theater to watch a literary and lyrical film.

It was a youthful love story between a college man and a woman, and the acting skills of the actors were also excellent. When the film reached its climax, Zhou Xuanxuan heard Qin Feihong's characteristic snoring amidst the faint sobs.

Afterwards, Qin Feihong explained that he was too tired, with good reasons for his explanation, and a sincere attitude of admitting his mistakes.

But Zhou Xuanxuan, who was full of expectations, was still a little disappointed.

Seeing Zhou Xuanxuan's suddenly lonely expression, Zheng Huai imitated the lines in the play and said, "Why is the lady frowning? You must know that if you frown too much, you will leave lines on your forehead." The vivid tone made Zhou Xuanxuan laugh out loud. sound.

"Senior Brother Zheng, thank you."

"I don't want your thanks. I just hope that when you encounter problems, I can be the person you rely on wholeheartedly." This is already a naked confession. Zhou Xuanxuan is not a fool, so she can naturally understand Zheng Huai's meaning.

But she couldn't give it, and she didn't want to give Zheng Huai a response.

She tried her best to smile, turned around and left Zheng Huai with a back view.

No one thought that this scene would be recorded by the camera and published in the weekly gossip magazine the next day.

The words "Red Apricot Gets Out of the Wall" were brightly printed on the yellow paper.

When Liu Yanhuan heard the news, he was bottling the finished product, and suddenly saw the waiter rushing in the door with a mournful expression on his face.

"Shopkeeper, something happened to Miss Zhou."

Liu Yanhuan looked at the extremely blurry figure in the gossip weekly, and lamented that he might not have the spirit of gossip, and he couldn't tell that the person in the photo was Zhou Xuanxuan.

However, Zhou Xuanxuan's fans were unanimous in saying that Zhou Xuanxuan's image as a beautiful woman was completely ruined.

The newspapers were full of gossip and negative reports about her. In the end, the Zhou family couldn't stand it anymore and used their connections to suppress public opinion.It's a pity that the public opinion was suppressed, but the public's anger at being cheated could not be suppressed. The film crew filmed by Zhou Xuanxuan had emotional fans throwing rotten eggs every day.

Liu Yanhuan sat in the public area of ​​the inner hall of Shede Teahouse, flipping through the full-page "Details of the love and hatred of the crew of "Li Xiangjun", why the wealthy daughter and the national girl's love and hatred are out of the wall?"

Liu Yanhuan asked Qin Feiran: "The daughter of the Zhou family regards money as dung, pursues the most noble love in the world, and ruthlessly dumps the young master of the Qin family. What does the third master think of this article?"

"The novelty hunt satisfies the curiosity of the audience, and the truth is no longer important."

Liu Yanhuan nodded, and suddenly saw a familiar figure coming in through the gap in the newspaper.

He pulled the newspaper "swish", covered his face and Qin Feiran's face, and made a silent gesture to Qin Feiran.

It was none other than Qin Feihong, another protagonist of the incident just now.

What made Liu Yanhuan almost laugh out loud was that Qin Feihong was followed by a man, wearing a black trench coat, a tall felt hat, holding a cane in his hand, with two mustaches sticking to his lips, and a pipe dangling from his mouth.

"Pfft." Liu Yanhuan laughed very shamelessly.

"Holmes?" Qin Feiran also felt that he couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's because I'm afraid that others won't know that I'm a detective." Liu Yanhuan supported his forehead, "But this kind of attire also shows that this person has no real material."

I saw Qin Feihong and the strange detective sitting obliquely in front of them, waiting for a pot of tea to boil, Qin Feihong opened the chatterbox.

Liu Yanhuan looked at the two people who were talking, and couldn't help frowning: "It's too far away, I can't hear what they are saying."

Qin Feiran glanced at the two of them, and said, "Is there any clue to what you were asked to investigate that day?"

"Huh?" Liu Yanhuan looked at Qin Feiran inexplicably, and it took a few seconds to realize that Qin Feiran was translating their conversation.

He looked at Qin Feiran in surprise: "Do you understand lip language?"

There was a smile on Qin Feiran's lips: "This is an essential skill for a private detective."

Only then did Liu Yanhuan remember that at first she really thought that the writer of detective novels was Qin Feiran's job.

Suddenly, "Sherlock Holmes" in front of him took something out of his pocket and handed it to Qin Feihong.

"Mr. Qin, we took these photos on the set. She has a close relationship with the actor surnamed Zheng. There are also rumors in the crew that they had a relationship long ago..."

Listening to Qin Feiran's translation, Liu Yanhuan frowned.

No man can bear such a huge green hat, let alone a son like Qin Feihong who holds a lot of power and was born with a golden key in his mouth.

I saw him clenching his fists tightly, his eyes were cracked, and he was breathing heavily through his nose.

Seeing this, Liu Yanhuan knew that Qin Feihong believed the detective.

Sure enough, Qin Feihong rushed to the counter of the teahouse, picked up the phone and dialed.

It should be Zhou Xuanxuan's assistant who answered the phone.

Because Qin Feiran's translation is: "Tell Zhou Xuanxuan that because of her, Taihe Bank's stock price has hit a new low since its listing, and now I have to be pointed out whenever I go out. Since she doesn't listen to the advice and cut her own way, then Let her fend for herself, don't drag me to be buried with her!"

After speaking, he hung up the phone without hesitation.

Turning around, I saw the heads of the two people were hiding behind the newspaper, and there was a rustling sound, which seemed to be kissing.

Qin Feihong was so angry that he kicked over the stool in front of him, slammed the door and left.
