Daily life of outdated stars

After the wedding, Xu Jia and Bai Lu rested for seven days. They left the villa on the eighth day and drove to the crew of "Ginkgo Blossoms 2" to take makeup photos.

He hadn't joined the film crew yet, but he met many reporters squatting around. A group of people came together and asked Xu Jia why he didn't go on honeymoon. Xu Jia replied very calmly: "I just came back from Sanya and I have to rest for a while. Play again."

"Ginkgo Blossom 2" basically called back the original crew. When taking makeup photos, Xu Jia met many old acquaintances, and everyone chatted intimately, as if they had never been unfamiliar.

After taking photos, there is nothing to do today. The start-up date is set for three days later, and Xu Jia still has three days off, so he can continue to go back and spend time with Bailu.

Instead of getting into the driver's car, he took the subway after a long absence—because he wore a mask on his face and his clothes were not conspicuous, he was not recognized by fans along the way.

——Xu Jia wanted to go to the coffee shop he used to go to. He remembered that the desserts there were delicious, so he planned to take a few boxes home.

Next to the coffee shop is a flower shop. He ordered a bouquet of flowers in advance and prepared to take them back to give to Bailu—even though the room will be replaced with fresh flowers every day, and they even have many beautiful gardens, Xu Jia still I want to buy it in person and send a bouquet of flowers to his newlywed wife-this may be a pure sense of ceremony.

When Xu Jia arrived at the coffee shop, there were not many customers there. He just wanted to take off his mask when he heard the boss say, "Don't take it off, I recognize you, Xiao Xu."

Xu Jia smiled, gave up taking off the mask, and said softly, "The boss's business is doing well recently?"

"Of course." The boss looked very relaxed, "A lot of people from our neighborhood came to film, and celebrity support came to me, so I recruited two more people."

"That's not bad," Xu Jia looked at the menu, and began to order skillfully, "Bring me one of the new products, and the others as before. Can you add more dry ice? I'll take it with me later. go home."

"Okay, no problem." The boss finished typing the order neatly, handed the receipt to Xu Jia, and called the other employees to go to work, then turned to look at Xu Jia, and asked him, "I've moved in to live with your husband What about the house here? Let’s leave it empty first?”

"Just leave it alone," Xu Jia yawned, "That's all for now."

The two chatted for a while, the desserts were packed, Xu Jia was about to leave with the desserts, but someone stopped her.

The man called him, "Jiajia."

Few people would call him that. Xu Jia turned his head, looked at the acquaintance, and said, "Long time no see, Zhou Mingyu."

"Are you in a hurry to go home? Do you want to chat?"

"I'm in a hurry, I don't really want to chat with you, but people have bumped into it, so it seems inappropriate to leave directly."

Carrying the bag, Xu Jia walked to Zhou Mingyu's side, sat opposite him, took out her phone frankly, and sent a message to Bailu.

"I met Zhou Mingyu when I was shopping for dessert, let's chat for a while, don't worry."

Bai Lu was probably busy, so he didn't reply immediately, and Xu Jia didn't mind either. He put his phone directly on the dining table and said, "Perhaps I should wish you a happy divorce?"

"It's not happy, it's a little more relaxed than before." Zhou Mingyu didn't help Xu Jia order a drink, he knew that the other party wouldn't be able to stay for a few minutes, "I wish you a happy wedding, Xu Jia."

"Director Hu said she gave you an invitation." Xu Jia thought he would see Zhou Mingyu at the wedding, but Zhou Mingyu didn't come after accepting the invitation, but it wasn't a matter of regret.

"It was not suitable for me to go that day, and I was afraid that the media would write about it."

The deeper reason, Zhou Mingyu didn't say, was that he planned to rot in his stomach for the rest of his life.

"Writing nonsense, the fans are making fun of it, it's nothing at all."

Regarding those pasts, Xu Jia had already turned the page. For the sake of being friends, Xu Jia didn't want Zhou Mingyu to still be stuck in the past and make a gesture of "I can't get out".

"I haven't said sorry to you in person, but I'll make it up this time."

"It was your ex-wife who did it. The choice is my own. What can you apologize for?"

Zhou Mingyu smiled and changed the subject: "When did you find out that you like men?"

"When I met the White Deer." When Xu Jia thought of the White Deer, his brows and eyes would smile. "He is on my aesthetic line."

"He is indeed very beautiful," Zhou Mingyu echoed, "Your relationship is also very good, I have watched your live broadcast."

"During the live broadcast, we restrained ourselves. I don't know what's going on recently. It seems that every day, I like him more than the day before."

"I never knew before that you would show affection and spread dog food."

"That proves that we haven't been in touch for too long, and we don't understand each other's personalities at all."

Zhou Mingyu still had a smile on his face, as if he couldn't understand the meaning behind Xu Jia's words. He stared at Xu Jia, as if he was sure that he would rarely have the opportunity to look at him like this in the future.

"I have a lot to say to you, but I don't know whether to say it or not."

"You shouldn't talk about it when you're hesitating." Xu Jia paused just right, "Some old things, if you miss the time point, bringing them up again will be harmful and useless."

"Xu Jia," Zhou Mingyu pressed his fingers on the dining table, trembling slightly, "I'm really glad to meet you. No one has ever matched me so well in certain aspects."

"Really?" Xu Jia was ruthless, and it was not as difficult as imagined to say something, "I forgot how we got along at that time."

Zhou Mingyu was still smiling, he said: "I will try to forget too."

"It's best like this." Xu Jia stood up straight, he didn't want to continue chatting with Zhou Mingyu, "I should go home, see you later."

"Goodbye, Xu Jia." Zhou Mingyu withdrew his gaze and stared at the water glass in front of him, "I wish you happiness."

"Will do."

Xu Jia left the coffee shop with the desserts. He left in a hurry, not because he was afraid that he would get emotional, but because he could see that Zhou Mingyu was about to cry.

Zhou Mingyu was indeed not very up-to-date, as soon as Xu Jia turned his back, he cried.

Maybe musicians are always so emotional, even when they are old, they still look like children.

Zhou Mingyu wanted to say a lot of things to Xu Jia, for example, he really liked him back then, for example, he really thought that Xu Jia had abandoned him, for example, he had been competing with each other all the time, and wanted Xu Jia to admit that without Xu Jia Well, he, Zhou Mingyu, is still living very well...but he didn't say anything because it was unnecessary.

Sometimes, a simple choice dooms them to walk on completely different paths, and they are no longer the same way.

But to meet again today, Zhou Mingyu forced him.

Zhou Mingyu settled the bill and greeted the boss, saying that he would not come again in the future.

The boss was also very interesting. He gave him a stack of postcards, asked him to sign them, and said, "Big star, write more good songs in the future, and your postcards will increase in value."

Zhou Mingyu was so angry that he didn't even want to sign.

Xu Jia returned home with delicate roses in his hands. He didn't pay much attention to the episode in the coffee shop. He never cared about people who had nothing to do with him.

But today, Bai Lu was not at home, and there was a note left by Bai Lu on the cabinet near the bed, which said: "Something happened at home, I may be back a few hours late, don't wait for me, go to bed early."

Xu Jia directly dialed Bailu's number, but the other party didn't hang up, but there was no answer either. Xu Jia heard the noisy discussion of many people, thought for a while, and hung up the phone voluntarily.

After another ten minutes, Xu Jia received a text message from Bailu, saying, "Some troubles, I may not be able to go back tonight."

Xu Jia quickly replied: "Take care of yourself, and call me if you have any questions."
