[Star Volunteer] Spare tire love

"Ji Xiang has worked hard."

The last shot of the MV ended, and the director came over to shake hands with him as usual.

"Thank you."

Compared with usual, Ji Xiang's face was not so cold, and he shook hands a little harder.The director couldn't help being a little surprised. This man is notoriously difficult to get along with in the industry. Why is he so easy to talk to today?

Ji Xiang just smiled at him, left the set and looked up at the dark sky - this is his last job, the plane ticket at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning, and he completely cut off all contact with this place from then on.

This is the best ending for him, for everyone.

When I returned to the age of innocence, it was already past 11 o'clock at night.The empty room was dark and silent.I habitually wanted to turn on the headlights, but remembered who said that electricity bills would increase the deficit, so I hesitated again.

There was a soft "pop", and the room was filled with the soft light of the small lamp.Ji Xiang looked at the familiar seat in front of the table, and vaguely saw a girl bent over the desk and buried her head in those accounts. Maybe even he himself didn't know how gentle his eyes were at this moment.

There are more pictures,

The two people who always quarrel, as big as the production of records, as small as whether the color of the cushion can be changed;

The person who always looks at everyone gently, plays the role of the parent of the peacemaker every time, seems to be smiling helplessly, but is always warm.

Yes, warm.

Ji Xiang also doesn't understand why he still wants to come back, why he still misses this place that he didn't care about before.

Yunqian was right, he didn't love her.Then why do I always think of her,

Guilty?responsibility?or something else?

The "complaint wall" is back.

Seeing those notes full of angry and cursing words plastered all over the wall again, Ji Xiang finally couldn't help laughing.

——Du Yunqian, the most domineering girl in the world.

——Yao Ziqi, I wish you could get out of here quickly.

It doesn't matter why you are reluctant to part with the age of innocence.The important thing is that he will always keep this warm feeling in his heart, and in the next few decades of loneliness, it will be a very good memory to bring it up occasionally.

Picking up the pen, pondering for a while, wrote on the blank space on the wall:

Senior, don't pamper the two of them too much.

Ziqi, biting a pencil is not a good habit, even for composing music.

Yunqian, drink less black coffee.

"Can you read the words without turning on the headlights?"

Suddenly I heard someone talking at the door, and then the room was brightly lit, before Ji Xiang put down his hand holding the pen, he saw that Du Yunqian had walked over, looking up at the writing on the wall.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Ji Xiang's silent gaze, Yunqian looked at him and raised her eyebrows, "Don't worry, you don't have to worry about the electricity bill anymore. If you just leave like this, you will pay the liquidated damages of the age of innocence. It's enough for the remaining three people in the company to live comfortably for a while—huh, I almost lost my breath when I said so much in one breath."

Yunqian waved her hand exaggeratedly.

Ji Xiang still just looked at her and didn't speak, his eyes were very complicated, the same as when he first came, and there was no change, and Du Yunqian at this time also made the same choice as before - if he can't understand, he can't understand, I don't even bother to guess.

"Why are you standing there, go make some coffee. Didn't you hear what I said, and your mouth is dry?" The manager and eldest lady's shelf was put out, and she pointed to the tea room as a matter of course.

Ji Xiang, who had been gloomy for an unknown amount of time, finally couldn't help showing a smile, a helpless and innocent smile.Get up and go over, and start making coffee very skillfully.Not far away, Yunqian was still seriously looking at the words he just wrote.

Facing her straightforward and natural expression, he suddenly had an illusion, as if nothing happened, as if he was just an entertainer in the age of innocence, and she was a manager, and they maintained a close but natural relationship with each other.

"I haven't had much coffee recently." After a while, Ji Xiang took the cup, and she took a sip, her eyes still on the "complaining wall." Ji Xiang stood beside him silently, the two of them side by side And stand.

"Because I don't know when I got used to coffee with milk, but other people can't make your taste. Even the seniors can't." She put down the cup and looked at him with a smile.

These words, this smile, made his heart tighten.

"Do you want to leave?" Yunqian glanced at the luggage he left at the door, and simply walked over with her arms around her and kicked the box with her feet.

"I'm leaving, it's good for everyone." Ji Xiang finally spoke and replied in a low voice.

"Be good to everyone..." Yunqian seemed to sneer, raised her head against the wall and repeated his words, "It's no surprise, you only know this trick, don't you?"

Ji Xiang was speechless.

"It was like this when you treated Xiao Xunzi before, and it's the same with me now. You were able to escape to me last time. Now, where are you going to escape to?"

She just looked him in the eyes and questioned him, hardly giving the man any room to dodge.

"Go home? You gave up your inheritance rights, and you are basically homeless. Even if you have a home, you know whether that kind of place can be considered a home. I am also a big lady, curled up in 15 rooms by myself. I know very well that there is only a nanny in my villa. Is your situation better than mine. "

Ji Xiang took a deep breath and clenched his hands on the table.

"Looking for a friend? Yiqing has already sent me an engagement invitation. In this case, a proud peacock man like you would not go to her if you asked me to. As for the others, we have been together for a while. I've never seen you have any other friends."

Ji Xiang turned his head away, pursing the corners of his mouth.

"Actually, you can go to Brother Jin, Xiao Xunzi. I don't understand what's going on between you two, but I know that if you fight against yourself, you won't go to him even if you are killed. Ji Xiang , You said where else do you want to escape to?"

"Anywhere is fine. I can do it myself. I don't have to go to someone." He turned his gaze to stare at her, and said word by word.

"Fool." Yun Qian smiled, went to the table and took a sip of the coffee she picked up, "It's so bitter. Why is milk coffee so bitter."

"It's cold, let's have a drink—"

"I said so much, don't you understand, Ji Xiang, you have nowhere to go, since you have nowhere to go, why don't you stay in the age of innocence?"

This sentence successfully made Ji Xiang, who turned around to change coffee, stop all his movements.

"The Age of Innocence treats you well. They give you a salary, let you win big prizes, and have paid vacations every year. Do you feel your conscience and say that my manager has ever abused you?"

Her earnest and off-line attitude caused so much shock and disbelief in his eyes when he turned around.

"Although liquidated damages are a lot of money, if you can stay, the value you will create for the company in the next two years will be several times that—"

"Yunqian." He said, if he didn't interrupt her, he didn't know how long she would chatter.

"Do you know what you're talking about?" he exhaled.Those are not the core of the problem at all, they are fringe words.The real core is——

"Of course I know." She answered quickly, never avoiding Du Yunqian, who met their gazes, and Ji Xiang's eyes reminded Ji Xiang of the starlight in September.

"Isn't it just that I want to keep a man who doesn't love me and continue to work for me. Right?"

Ji Xiang's eyebrows twitched.You can vaguely see him gritting his teeth, trying to control some turbulent emotions.

"Yunqian, I don't understand you."

After a while, he whispered.

"That's because you don't love me, so you don't understand me." She smiled, and her answer was still so straightforward, so frank, so straightforward that Ji Xiang couldn't restrain the waves in his heart.

"However, I don't understand you, even though I love you." Yunqian sighed and turned around, "Actually, it's nothing, I just spread out the things you don't want to say clearly. I love you, But you don't love me, so I'm broken. You are a good employee, and I want to stay and continue to work for me. These principles are too simple. You don't need to make them complicated." She closed her eyes He exhaled and smiled at him again, "Ji Xiang, why don't you try a simple life."

"Because I know that behind all the simple things there is often a painful struggle." He took the first two steps, "You are fine, have always been fine, and have been fine to me... and I will only continue to hurt you if I stay .”

For the first time, it was the first time that he directly expressed his feelings to people like this.

"Then I want to advise you, don't take yourself too seriously." Yun Qian raised her eyebrows, "How I treat you is my own business. I can't deny that I have indeed been hurt by this. It also hurt the seniors, Good friends like Ziqi, and the entire Age of Innocence."

Since crying in the arms of her senior, she has thought a lot these two days.In any case, those past days were indeed too undeserved——

"Now I have decided that I will not go on like that anymore. Even if some feelings are not just accept or end, but at least I hope you understand, Ji Xiang, now you have no right to hurt me."

With a soft "pop", the lights in the room were suddenly extinguished, leaving a silent darkness.

"Maybe it's a trip, I'll go and see—"

"Ji Xiang, I will cherish the feelings I have for you. The good things will not be thrown away like this. But they are only in the memory of each other. I hope you are too. If you have such a Enlightenment, why do you have to leave."

In the darkness, her voice was so clear, so clear and touching.

With a sound of "cha", Yunqian lit a match, the kind of long-stem match used for lighting cigars, to illuminate each other's faces.

"At least, we can still be good partners at work," she held out her hand to him. "How about it, partner?"

The match was about to burn out, but there was still that hesitant face in the blur.

"Hey!! Ji Xiang, do you know what is good or bad? I, a gold medal manager, have been talking all night and you still don't nod?! With this time, I have already signed Li Hua. How can I be so arrogant? What do you want me to do? Please--"

"Please advise."

Before she finished speaking, she felt someone holding her hand, which was still cold, as if no one was hurting her.

The match went out, so I couldn't see each other's expressions clearly.

"Don't worry, there are many places for advice, report on Monday, don't be late,"

Hold hands firmly.

"Okay, why are you still standing there, go check the switch. Could it be that my manager is also allowed to be the boss?" Immediately, Miss Du roared again.

Ji Xiang obediently walked away.

"Don't go home until it's fixed." She said to him who was busy in front of the electric box before entering the elevator, "I'll go first." , She suddenly felt a little exhausted.

Leaning on the back seat of the car, Yunqian closed his eyes. The advantage of Zhongxuan is that he will never say a word when he should not speak.Yes, now she doesn't even have the strength to say a word.

My mind was in a mess, I couldn't think of anything clearly.But at least one thing is clear, she is definitely not as chic and indifferent as she just said.

When she told her brother her decision, his expression undoubtedly said: You are crazy.

Some things cannot be hidden from that shrewd brother, she still chose to tell the truth, especially when Du Sichen asked why Ji Xiang was kept.

Yes, he doesn't understand, it's understandable that Du Yunqian is reluctant to part with the age of innocence, he also knows that Du Yunqian doesn't want to marry casually,

Why, why did he insist on keeping this Ji Xiang under such circumstances.Wouldn't it be easier, cleaner, and more definitive to let him go?

—I'm afraid he'll be alone.

This is Du Yunqian's answer.

Yes, like she said, he has nowhere to go.

at least,

She doesn't want him to be alone.

It's that simple.
