Green tea with green plum

At eight o'clock in the evening, it began to drizzle lightly, Ji Yaoyao put on a long down jacket and went out in snow boots.

On this cold day, a group of reporters were still guarding the gate of the community, just to capture how she, the director, reacted after the thunderstorm of the second male lead.

Ji Yaoyao had no choice but to go to the underground parking lot. She put on sunglasses and a mask, and sat in the back seat, trying to hide herself in the dark as much as possible.

The car drove out of the exit smoothly. This Geely car, less than [-] yuan, did not attract the attention of the reporters.

After the car drove out of the community for a certain distance, Ji Yaoyao confirmed that there was no one following, and then reported the address to the assistant Xiaoyuan in the driver's seat.

The destination is a luxurious mansion in this city, Gu Yun's private residence, where she is waiting for Ji Yaoyao.

It seems that getting married really changes a lot, Gu Yun doesn't like to stay in the company anymore, Ji Yaoyao lay in the car, thinking lazily.

Worrying about Sun Mao's affairs all day long, Ji Yaoyao was so sleepy that she couldn't bear it anymore, her eyelids were fighting up and down, and she fell asleep in the car with the heater on.

When the car stopped, she automatically opened her eyes.

Gu Yun's butler opened the car door and said respectfully, "Miss Gu, please come with me."

He led the way ahead, Ji Yaoyao followed obliquely behind, under the dim street lights, the mansion could be seen in full view, in the refreshing cold wind, the pines and cypresses in the garden were still green, and under the lights, small slanted shadows rustled down, accumulating on the branches of the trees head.

Ji Yaoyao was stunned for several seconds before realizing that it was snowing, and this was the first time she saw snow this year.

It's just that she didn't have the heart to appreciate the snow scene at the moment, and let the bodyguard behind her open the black umbrella and walked towards the gate.

The housekeeper held the copper handle and pushed the door open: "Miss Ji, please come in."

"Thank you." Ji Yaoyao thanked him for his meticulous care, and walked into the mansion.

Different from the freezing weather outside, the room was so warm that one could feel that one was in a heater, and the crystal lamp was dazzlingly bright, melting the snow particles on Ji Yaoyao's eyelashes.

As soon as Ji Yaoyao walked in, she was so hot that she took off her scarf

She looked around, and when she was about to find Gu Yun, she came out of the kitchen with a plate.

"Have you had dinner?" Gu Yun asked, "Would you like to come over and have some first?"

Putting down the dinner plate, she walked towards the door, took the scarf from Ji Yaoyao's hand, and hung it on the door shelf.

Following her movements, Ji Yaoyao inadvertently noticed the layout of the entrance, which were all women's shoes and bags, and Gu Yun should be the only one living there.

For some reason, realizing this, Ji Yaoyao relaxed a little, put on her slippers, and followed Gu Yun to the restaurant.

It's true that she didn't have dinner, but at this time, Ji Yaoyao didn't have much appetite: "No need..."

Before she finished speaking, Gu Yun said again: "Knowing that you are coming, I specially fried the steak, which is medium rare according to your taste."

After all, there is a need for others, Ji Yaoyao is not good at showing her favor, she pulls out the chair and sits down at the dining table.

The smell of steak pierced into the tip of her nose, Ji Yaoyao was really hungry at the moment, Gu Yun took another bottle of red wine, poured it into a goblet, and handed one of the glasses to Ji Yaoyao.

Although she had already quit drinking, but at this time it was snowing outside, sitting indoors eating meat and drinking some wine would be more atmospheric, Ji Yaoyao did not refuse.

She really didn't know what to say to Gu Yun, so she just ate meat in silence. In the huge restaurant, there were occasional crisp sounds of knives and forks hitting porcelain plates. The two sat face to face, but neither made a sound.

The steak was almost finished, Ji Yaoyao couldn't sit still anymore, she put down the knife and fork, and wiped her lips: "It's getting late, Mr. Gu, can you tell me your solution?"

"Don't eat?"

Gu Yun didn't answer her question, but asked first.

Ji Yaoyao shook her head.

Gu Yun tilted her head slightly, as if to see Ji Yaoyao's appearance more clearly.

Her eyes are deep, and Ji Yaoyao's reflection under the lamp is reflected in her dark pupils—it's still as good-looking as before, with long curly hair and fluffy hair, like a lively deer running out of the forest, her eyes are also big and round, shining brightly, no matter what she looks at Everyone looks affectionate.

Always so alive and full of energy.

Compared with Ji Yaoyao, Gu Yun felt that she was withering day by day. She was like a tree that was nailed in place and could not move. The vines devoured.

"Mr. Gu?" Seeing that she was silent, Ji Yaoyao reminded her.

Gu Yun lowered his eyelids to cover the dim light in his eyes: "The solution is very simple, just change to a well-known artist and replace Sun Mao's role in the reshoot."

"So that's how it is..." Ji Yaoyao rested her chin with one hand and let out a long sigh. It's not like she hadn't thought about this method, but it's so easy to find someone who fits the role. She spent a lot of effort in the beginning Only then did I find Sun Mao, unless it was Guan Yi, a popular niche who was more suitable than Sun Mao, but he is a movie star, how could he condescend to play her second male lead in a low-budget online drama?

Just when Ji Yaoyao was thinking about it, Gu Yun said, "What do you think of Guan Yi?"

"Of course." Ji Yaoyao said, "But..."

"Or who else do you think is more suitable? Qin Feng, Liu Yan, or Bai Hubin?"

Gu Yun uttered a long list of names of the popular little fresh meats, just like reporting the names of dishes.

Ji Yaoyao suddenly realized that the person in front of her was the omnipotent Gu Yun, even though she had already retreated behind the scenes, she was still not something these actors could afford to refuse.

Seeing that she was silent with her mouth open, Gu Yun habitually tapped the marble table with her fingertips: "Then I decided to change my official position and act."

"Wait!" Ji Yaoyao was about to nod her head, but rationality told her to rein in the precipice, "We don't have that much salary."

In Gu Yun's eyes, money has never been a problem: "He can act as a friend, or I can invest in the salary."

Ji Yaoyao vaguely felt something was wrong, it was just a low-budget film, did Gu Yun need to be so concerned?

Ji Yaoyao is not a child, she has long understood the truth of the adult world - there is no free dinner in the world, if you want one thing, you have to exchange it for another.

For a moment, the bright lights in the room, the bright red wine in the glass, and the warm scent of aromatherapy all became hints.

"Mr. Gu...you don't need to spend so much time thinking about this drama."

Ji Yaoyao thought about it.

Maybe she's just thinking too much...

"Why not?" Gu Yun looked at her with a puzzled face, "You really hope that this show will be popular, don't you?"

That's right, but——

Ji Yaoyao stood up abruptly, she didn't look directly into Gu Yun's eyes: "Sorry, I still have to take a step ahead."

Gu Yun looked at her back as she turned around and was about to leave, and suddenly said, "Yaoyao."

Ji Yaoyao paused, and she turned her head: "What purpose does Mr. Gu have, why don't you just tell me."

"No purpose, I just want you to be happy."

"Really?"

Ji Yaoyao is skeptical.

"By the way—"

Gu Yun tilted her head, her eyes were as cold as a letter spit out by a snake, "I hope you can break up with her."

Sure enough, the sword of Damocles hanging above his head finally fell down.

It is self-evident who she is referring to. Gu Yun is showing her true face at this moment. Her paranoia and desire to control are all superior.

Ji Yaoyao was trembling all over, she just felt that the trust he had in her before was ridiculous.

Why did Gu Yun think that as long as she grasped her handle, she would definitely give in to her?

She looked at Gu Yun fiercely, and said decisively: "absolutely, no, yes, yes."

"Gu Yun, what do you think you are, why can you blackmail me like this?"

After saying this, Ji Yaoyao didn't look at Gu Yun's expression, she quickly ran out towards the door, and escaped from this seemingly warm but actually cold room.

The snow outside has already accumulated a thin layer, and the slippers under Ji Yaoyao's feet are not easy to walk, every step makes a rattle on the snow.

Her teeth were chattering against the freezing wind, and at last she walked through the garden and the avenue with the fountain to the front of the car.

The moment her fingertips were about to touch the handle of the car, a figure hurriedly chasing after her stepped on her footsteps and embraced her tightly.

Gu Yun's hands were also trembling, and her voice was also trembling: "It doesn't matter if you don't break up, as long as you are happy, everything is fine."

"I only have one request, Yaoyao, stay by my side and don't leave me."

Ji Yaoyao froze, she didn't care about the posture of being held in Gu Yun's arms, she turned her head: "Gu Yun, what are you talking about?"

"I said, as long as you are happy, it doesn't matter who you are with, it doesn't matter whether she is Xia You or someone else. I just hope you don't leave me."

Gu Yun's eyes were red, and the blood on her face was gone. Her strategizing was useless, and all she could do was plead in a low voice: "Yaoyao, can't even this be allowed?"
