Qi Luo has no regrets

I couldn't fall asleep peacefully all night. When I closed my eyes, I felt as if I was in a dark space where I couldn't see any light and kept falling down. My heart was empty, as if I had lost something.

When I woke up the next day, I was so haggard that my concealer barely covered my dark circles.As soon as she sat in the office and hadn't recovered, sister Anna rushed in in a hurry.

"Youran, do you know! There is a big surprise! Our company has developed!!!"

"Li Zeyan added more investment?" I lied on the table and answered weakly.

"No! It's HBS TV station from the United States who came to our company! They are going to make a global indoor adventure variety show, and the first stop is China, and they even named you to be the producer!"

The three letters "HBS" woke me up instantly, and I almost forgot the existence of this TV station.

"Didn't they say why they were looking for me?"

"Hahaha, of course they are interested in your ability. They said that they will come to our company to discuss in-depth cooperation later. You should go and clean up, and you will have to play well later."

"Can I... can I not go?"

"Nervous?"

"No, Sister Anna, think about it. It's not that I look down on our company. Do you think our company has the ability to undertake such a big business? Besides, I'm a little-known producer. What do they think of me?"

"You, you just don't have much confidence in yourself. Since you doubt this, why don't you ask them yourself when they come later?"

I helplessly watched Anna happily share the joy with other colleagues in the company. I am afraid that I will disappoint them later. Where does HBS value my ability? What they value is Queen's ability. It must be rejected. I don't want to help Li Zeyan block the lightning, but it's not kind to watch him being struck by lightning, so not participating is the best choice.

At noon, the person in charge of HBS arrived as scheduled. She was a capable woman in her 30s. Without too many pleasantries, she directly cut into the topic with me.

"Miss Youran, I have seen your "Discovery of Miracles", which is very good. And after background and market research, we believe that your company is capable enough to become our partner in opening up the Chinese market."

"Thank you for your recognition of our company." I replied to her with a smile.

"We also hope that you can agree to one request for this cooperation. We need your company to finalize the guests for the first episode of the show, how about it?"

"By virtue of your company's reputation, it's much easier for you to go directly to determine the effect of the guests than our company." I tapped my fingers on the table unconsciously, but found that this action was very familiar. After staying with the old fox for a long time, I was nervous I will deliberately imitate him, it seems that this can make my brain turn faster.

"Why don't you take a look at our guests for the first episode before making a decision?" The person in charge pushed the document in front of me, "We will entrust you to help us finalize the guests for the first episode. higher."

I opened the folder, and what I expected was a photo of Li Zeyan. In the photo, his lips were tightly pursed, and his whole body was like a sword about to be unsheathed.

"As far as I know, my investor doesn't know the type of show, let alone a variety show. Why do you want to choose him as the guest of the first episode? Please use Li Zeyan's budget. Showbiz can find better and more experienced stars, can't it?"

I looked up at the person in charge, her expression remained calm.

"Because after research, Mr. Li is the most suitable candidate for the first episode of the program."

"Is your first program going to do financial analysis? An adventure variety show that relies on investment and financial management? Monopoly?" I closed the file and laughed.Anna kicked my foot under the table suspiciously, and I reached under the table and patted her leg, implying that she was relieved.

"Actually, we've already finished the program plan for the first episode, which revolves around Mr. Li. If you can't invite Mr. Li, Ms. Youran, the plan for this episode will have to be redone."

"To be honest, I really have no way to invite Mr. Li. Since you have investigated it, it should be very clear that we and Li Zeyan are only in the relationship between investing and being invested. If we do not do well, we may even be withdrawn. In this case , I don’t think our company has the capital to talk to Li Zeyan about the guests.”

The person in charge's expression became serious, obviously my refusal was beyond her expectation, I stopped to think for a while, and said something to her meaningfully, "Man, you have self-knowledge, I am still very clear about my situation of."

I thought that the person in charge would stop this cooperation, but she unexpectedly pushed the closed document on the table to me again.

"Our HBS has always been very cautious. We will make at least two sets of proposals for each episode, and one of them will be used as a backup. If it is really impossible to invite Mr. Li, Ms. You Ran may wish to take a look at the guests of our second plan."

There is also a second set of plans that really exceeded my expectations. I opened the folder and turned down a page. A smile like an angel appeared in front of me, and I felt my breathing stagnate for a moment. , Trying to control the hand holding the file not to tremble.

"This person must be familiar to Miss Youran, no, it should be said that no one is unfamiliar with him, the popular superstar Zhou Qiluo."

I tried to be as calm as possible, and looked at her expressionlessly, "So do we need to invite Zhou Qiluo? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. I was rejected by his manager not long ago."

"That's not necessary. We have been cooperating with Zhou Qiluo's agency for a long time. If we use the second plan, HBS will come forward to invite Zhou Qiluo, but..." The person in charge paused. From being a celebrity, Ms. Youran would prefer Mr. Li's challenging plan."

I suddenly realized that this was an obvious threat, and remembered Xu Mo's circle of friends last night, "Passing by a field of sunflowers, only one is growing in the completely opposite direction."

Is this talking about me, or Zhou Qiluo?

After all, we who are each other's light will only strive to grow in the direction of each other.

Putting down the file, I leaned back on the chair, crossed my fingers on my belly, and watched that the person in charge didn't speak, because I didn't know what to say, my mind was messed up, and I couldn't make up my mind.

The person in charge looked at me with a smile, and didn't urge me to make a decision, but Anna seemed to feel the weird atmosphere between us, and looked at me worriedly.I never thought that one day Zhou Qiluo would become the most vulnerable weakness in me.

"To be honest," I finally found my voice after a long silence, "From this conversation with your company, I didn't feel any sincerity at all."

"What does Miss Youran think is sincerity?"

"Your company kept saying that they wanted me to cooperate because they liked my ability as a producer, but you have already planned the program. The only thing I need to do is to help you invite Li Zeyan as a guest?" I mocked Raise the corners of your mouth.

She frowned, "Perhaps you can understand that we need your company's influence in the domestic market to help us gain a foothold."

"Isn't Love Talk TV a better partner?"

"According to our research and research, it is true that Lianyu Satellite TV is the best partner at present, but in terms of prospects, your company is better." I have no way to deny this sentence, after all, it is aimed at the two-year agreement with Li Zeyan. I also have to work hard to run this company. The prospects are far from unlimited, and certainly not too bad.

"...Inviting Li Zeyan is not an easy task. I need some time to communicate with him. Why don't you give me some time first, and wait until the results of the communication with Li Zeyan come out, and then we will talk about the next cooperation."

The person in charge smiled, and seemed to be very satisfied with the result, "Yes, but Miss Youran needs to be as soon as possible, and there is not much time before the first episode we originally planned to broadcast."

I looked at the smile on her face, and compared to anger and anxiety, I was more powerless in my heart.

After seeing off the person in charge of HBS, I spread out on a chair in the meeting room, and Anna came over and patted me on the shoulder.

"Sister Anna, I'm sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry about."

"Obviously everyone was looking forward to this cooperation so much, but I messed up."

"Youran, I believe you have your reasons, and the attitude of HBS also makes me feel a little uneasy, what are you going to do now, Mr. Li..."

"Let's talk about it, Li Zeyan refuses, I can't tie him up and take him to the recording site. Besides, I have to be able to beat him." I laughed at Anna self-deprecatingly.

"Oh—it's hard for you."

"Sister Anna, I want to be alone for a while."

Sister Anna didn't say anything, she just left silently, and then locked the door of the meeting room for me.

I sat by the floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room and watched the traffic rush downstairs.The phone vibrated, it was a text message from Zhou Qiluo.

"Ashu, I'm about to board the plane, don't be afraid, I'll be back soon."

I typed and deleted in the dialog box, deleted and lost again. At this moment, I suddenly don’t want him to return to this dangerous love city. My premonition is right, the danger has already begun to spread...

I didn't want them to hurt Zhou Qiluo, and I didn't want Li Zeyan to take risks. I was caught in a dilemma. Before I thought of a solution, I planned to delay the show for as long as I could.

No one mentioned this incident to me until the end of get off work. I think Anna gave the order, so although everyone was curious, no one came to ask me anything, which made me breathe a sigh of relief, because I really don't know how Facing their expectant eyes, I couldn't say "I'm sorry, I don't want to accept this cooperation".

He dragged his exhausted body back home, lay on the bed and didn't want to do anything, but thought that Zhou Qiluo was coming back, so he struggled to get up and take a shower.

After tossing and turning on the bed for a long time, always worried about what to do if the doorbell could not be heard, I simply ran to the sofa in the living room with a small blanket in my arms.After thinking about it, I also took out the alarm clock in the bedroom and put it on the coffee table. In the quiet room, I could only hear the second hand "tattling" and walking rhythmically. Every time I walked, I felt that today's clock was moving very slowly.

It turns out that the real life is not when I can't see you, but when I am waiting for you.

The clock has also gone by several frames, I fell asleep while waiting, the phone suddenly rang crazily in my ears, I jumped up from the sofa, and ran to the door while answering the phone.

The moment the door was opened, a voice came from the phone at the same time as in front of my eyes, "Ah Tu."

The bravery of the day was exhausted at this moment, tears flowed out uncontrollably, I rushed forward, Zhou Qiluo was hit by me and couldn't stand still, took a step back before catching me, until the moment I hugged him tightly, I couldn't hold back. It felt like he was really back.

"My Ashu still loves to cry so much."

He patted my back lightly, which was obviously a soothing gesture, but it made me feel even more wronged and cried harder.While sobbing and crying, I heard him sigh softly.

Zhou Qiluo suddenly picked me up and put my legs around his waist, then supported me with one hand and pulled the suitcase with the other, and entered the room.

At this moment, crying in the dark, I finally realized that this posture is a bit shameful, "This posture...is used for hugging children."

"Isn't Ashu crying like a brat now?"

Throwing the luggage in the living room, Zhou Qiluo carried me into the bathroom and put me on the washstand, skillfully took the towel and wet it, then wiped my face.

"Why does this scene look so familiar..."

"Ah Tu, if you cry like this a few more times, it will become more familiar." He smiled and pinched my nose.

I was a little embarrassed and wanted to jump off the sink, but he stopped me.

"You are not allowed to run around without shoes on, I will carry you back." He said and opened a big embrace to me.

I hung back on him like a koala, resting my chin on the crest of his neck, my heart was so soft.

"Lolo."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to call you."

"Ah."

"Lolo."

"Ah."

"Lolo."

"Yeah." I rubbed my head against his neck.

Walking to the side of the bed, Zhou Qiluo put me down, squatted on the ground and looked up at me, his eyes shone like they had been washed, and they were full of me.

"Ashu, I'm back." His fingers brushed across my eyes, "With such heavy dark circles, is it because Miss Potato Chips missed me so much that she didn't sleep well?" With an incomparably gentle tone, I confirmed once again that my Lolo is really back.

"Hmm..." I pressed my cheek against his palm and rubbed it a few times, "I can't sleep well without you here."

Zhou Qiluo stood up and took off his coat, threw aside his body pillow on the bed, then lay on the bed and opened his arms towards me.

"Then tonight, the live-action Zhou Qiluo pillow is only provided for Ashu. I don't know if Ashu needs it. There is only one copy in the world. It is said that sleeping with you can not only sleep peacefully but also Have a nice dream."

Seeing him trying hard to sell himself, I couldn't help laughing, I crawled over to find a comfortable position in his arms, Zhou Qiluo pulled the quilt to cover both of us, and turned off the light in the bedroom.There was a pleasant smell from his body, and his body temperature was as warm as sunlight.

"Zhou Qiluo, you haven't taken a shower yet."

"Well, I'll go when you fall asleep."

"I prepared a new toothbrush and new bath towel for you, but I have to use my shower gel, do you mind?"

"Using Ashu's shower gel will definitely be as fragrant and sweet as Ashu."

"You are always sweet and fragrant."

"Say it as if you've tasted it before." His chuckling voice came from the darkness, and I suddenly didn't know where the courage came from, so I leaned forward and kissed his lips.A faint stubble had already appeared around his lips, which tickled me slightly.

"I've tasted it now...it's really fragrant and sweet." I said pretending to be calm, but fortunately he couldn't see my expression clearly in the dark, otherwise he would definitely see my face flushed.

Zhou Qiluo didn't speak, but in the darkness I felt his breathing getting closer and closer, which made my heart more and more tense.

There was something warm and moist on his lips, and he just pecked lightly and left.

"I still think Ashu is sweeter." He whispered in my ear, his voice was soft, every word penetrated into my heart.

It was very late at night, and the room was dark, but I seemed to be embracing the light of the whole world. The warmth penetrated from my body to my heart, and I was so comfortable that my consciousness began to blur.

Dimly, I heard Zhou Qiluo whispering to me about daily trivial matters.

"Ashu, what do you want to eat tomorrow morning?"

"...um... you cooked... porridge."

"Aren't you tired of eating porridge all the time?"

"...want to eat... forever..."

I heard a deep chuckle, like someone slowly plucking the strings of a cello.

That day, I dreamed that I was running in a sea of ​​sunflowers, and suddenly an unsocial sunflower appeared in front of me, persistently blooming in the opposite direction to everyone, and this direction was where I was.

I couldn't help stretching out my hand to touch it. The moment I touched it, a gust of wind raised a large piece of golden petals, which confused my sight. I saw a slender flower protruding from the golden petals. His hand held mine tightly, and the owner of that hand, with a bright smile and a nice voice, called me, "A potato."
