"It's so late, why don't you just find a place to have dinner before going back?" Lu Ziqi asked Liu Lian in the car.

Liu Lian was leaning against the car window in a daze, when she heard this she shook her head and said, "No, my parents are still waiting for me at home."

"En." Lu Ziqi responded lightly, and added at the end, "You said, I only give you three days, and I only wait for three days."

"I will definitely give you an answer in three days." Liu Lian said, "If possible, I will try my best to convince my parents."

Lu Ziqi couldn't help laughing out loud, she didn't know whether she wanted to laugh from the bottom of her heart or she was laughing at herself, she said: "Old Liu, I found that you are really timid, once something happens, you will immediately retract your shell Why did you still think about going this way?"

Liu Lian couldn't figure out what Lu Ziqi meant by these words, so she whispered, "I'm sorry..."

"No need to say I'm sorry, I understand you." Lu Ziqi said, "You are different from me. You have family members to consider. I feed the whole family alone and don't feel hungry."

Liu Lian sighed leisurely and did not speak again.

After a while, Lu Ziqi said again: "You know what? Old Liu, this is the second time I've waited for someone. The first time was Lu Dandan, but it's not really waiting for her. It's just that I can't let go of my obsession. Later I met When I saw you, I thought my bachelor career was finally over, but I didn't expect...hehe..." There were a few unexplained laughs behind him.

When Liu Lian thought about what she asked Lu Ziqi to wait for her for three days to think about it, she immediately felt that she was going too far, but a woman as proud as Lu Ziqi agreed without even thinking about it.

In the past year, Lu Ziqi has really changed a lot, maybe she was not such a tricky person before.

"I'm sorry." Liu Lian said again, "If you are angry, don't hold it in your heart, just scold me."

"Calling you? I'm afraid it will only make you more and more angry. Don't worry about me, let me get angry for a while, and the anger will disappear." Lu Ziqi said calmly as he drove the car without squinting.

Unknowingly, time passed quickly, and soon Lu Ziqi parked the car downstairs in Liu Lian's apartment. Liu Lian was a little bit reluctant to part with Lu Ziqi, especially when she thought of Liu's father and Liu mother who were about to face her when she returned home. say goodbye

"Remember, three days." Lu Ziqi didn't seem to have any nostalgia for Liu Lian. She said a word with a cold expression and was about to drive away. Before she left, she looked at Liu Lian and said, "Old Liu, I really hate your indecision."

Liu Lian stood motionless and watched Lu Ziqi's car disappear into the dark night, and then walked towards the entrance of the apartment listlessly.

Liu Lian thought that Liu's father and Liu mother must be asleep. Their work and rest schedules are very regular. They must go to bed before eleven o'clock every night, and they will wake up before seven o'clock the next morning.It's just that when Liu Lian came home, she found that Liu's father and Liu mother were sitting side by side on the sofa watching TV.

After hearing the sound of closing the door, Liu's mother muted the TV and said to Liu Lian, "Hey, where have you been? Mom doesn't answer your calls."

"Oh, it's nothing, I went out to relax." Liu Lian walked towards the bedroom while talking. After walking a few steps, she suddenly remembered that her car was still parked in front of the bar and hadn't come back. Liu Lian checked the time. One o'clock, forget it, wait until tomorrow to get the car back.

Liu Ma followed Liu Lian into the bedroom without saying a word, and seeing Liu Lian pounced on the bed and wrapped herself tightly in the quilt, Liu Ma stepped forward to tear off the quilt with a worried face, and suddenly a smell of alcohol rushed to her face .

"Have you been drinking?" Mama Liu slapped her nose with her hand, and said with a frown, "I was at home with your dad, worried that you would be so worried that you couldn't sleep, but you're better off fooling around outside and getting drunk."

"Mom, don't talk about it, okay?" Liu Lian didn't even bother to open her eyes, she grabbed the lifted quilt and wrapped herself up again, "I beg you to let me rest, I'm very tired." At first When she was with Lu Ziqi, Liu Lian's whole body was in a tense state, but now that she relaxes, she suddenly feels all the exhaustion rushing in. Liu Lian just wants to have a good sleep and put all the troubles behind her.

But Mama Liu is obviously unwilling to let Liu Lian go easily. She and Papa Liu are more conservative in thinking. Liu Lian's behavior of going out drinking and drinking until half the night before coming back has made Mama Liu very upset. She can't let Liu Lian keep this The look continued to be decadent.

Mother Liu thought to herself, Liu Lian is not yet 30 years old, and she will have a long life in the future!She can't ruin the rest of her life just because of Lu Ziqi. If she is determined to be with Lu Ziqi, then she can't have her own child. Maybe Liu Lian doesn't think there is anything now, but when she gets old, she will know about the existence of children. How important it is, how happy it is to have relatives with the same blood in the world after the death of parents.

"Hey, don't go to sleep, Mom wants to talk to you." Seeing Liu Lian wrapped in the quilt and pretending to be dead, Liu Ma lowered her voice and adopted a gentle policy, "Since you graduated from university, our mother and daughter have not Have a good chat, you never tell me what's on your mind, I don't even know what my daughter is thinking, I really failed as a mother."

Liu Lian turned over and covered her ears with her hands even tighter. She really didn't want to listen to Liu Ma's words, she was afraid that it would shake her determination to go on with Lu Ziqi.

Liu Ma said a lot to Liu Lian, from when Liu Lian was a child, until Liu Lian grew up and left home to go to Beijing to find her dream. While talking, Liu Ma's tears suddenly fell, and she wiped her tears with her hands while choking He said: "I'm sorry, we shouldn't have just focused on work and not taken care of you when you were so young. You are our daughter. Both your father and I hope to earn more money to give you the best life, but Ignoring how you feel when you're always home alone."

Liu Lian's head was a little dizzy and swollen. She really wanted to sleep, but Liu Ma's continuous voice made her unable to sleep. Before she knew it, Liu Lian's eyes were also moist. She pulled off the quilt and lay on the quilt Ri's face was drenched with sweat, and his sweat-soaked hair stuck to his forehead.

"If we took more care of you, wouldn't you be what you are now?" Mama Liu said, tears dripping down her face mixed with remorse, "Homosexual, why do you want to be gay? You ...How do you want us to treat you in the future?"

Mama Liu sat sideways on the bed, and at the end she got emotional and suddenly covered her face and burst into tears.Liu Lian stared blankly at Liu Ma's figure, tears kept spilling from between her fingers, dripping on the quilt and blooming into a small flower, Liu Lian opened her mouth, obviously there were many words of protest but choked in her throat at this moment, she I was speechless.

After waiting for a few seconds, Father Liu, who had been waiting anxiously in the living room, rushed in when he heard the sound. His face was sad, and the white hair that suddenly grew out of his hair made him look much older than the last time we met. Liu Seeing this, Dad quickly grabbed Mama Liu who was crying non-stop: "Okay, okay, let's talk about the child tomorrow, let's go to rest."

Mama Liu felt tired after talking so much, so she hummed a few times while wiping away her tears.

Seeing that Liu Ma's mood finally eased up, Liu Lian rubbed her aching head and sat up on the bed: "I'll help you clean up the room." After speaking, Liu Lian got off the bed and walked to the study.

This apartment is relatively narrow, with two bedrooms and one living room. It is just right for Liu Lian to live alone. The remaining one bedroom is useless and used as a study. Fortunately, Liu Lian is afraid that there will be guests and there is no need to sleep. A small bed was placed in the study room, and some sundries were piled up on the small bed.

It took Liu Lian half an hour to tidy up the small bed and lay down the cotton-wool sheets before finishing the work. Liu's father and Liu mother were still sitting on the sofa with a sad look on their faces.

"Dad, Mom, you can sleep in my room, I will sleep in the study." Liu Lian walked over and said.

"It's okay, you can sleep in your bed by yourself, and your mother and I can squeeze into the cot." Dad Liu said, "Do you have any toiletries? We rushed here without bringing them."

"You don't have to be polite with me, I'm just fine sleeping in a small bed alone." Liu Lian forced a smile and said, "I'll get you clothes and toiletries, please wait."

The next time we got along was quite peaceful. Although Mama Liu wanted to do some ideological work for Liu Lian, Mama Liu was distressed by Liu Lian's nonchalant attitude that the world's affairs had nothing to do with her. Can't listen.In the end, Mama Liu had no choice but to give up today's communication. Anyway, she and Papa Liu had already taken leave of absence and planned to live in Beijing for a while, and there was still a lot of time to persuade Liu Lian in the future.

After taking a shower, Liu Lian wrapped herself in a nightgown and sat in front of the computer to start working. Xia Yan's arrival added a lot of workload to her. Liu Lian had to teach her what she didn't understand, and Xia Yan's work arrangement before signing the contract was very chaotic, and Liu Lian needed to tidy it up.

Liu Lian worked until three o'clock in the morning, and the sleepy Liu Lian took off her clothes and went to bed, and had to get up again at six o'clock the next day.Since the car was still parked in front of the bar I went to yesterday, Liu Lian had to take a taxi to the bar to get the car and then drive to the company. Liu Lian, the manager, should be present at the first event after Xia Yan signed with Huazhong Company.

After signing a batch of new artists, Zhou Xue began to recruit assistants on a large scale. He arranged three assistants for Xia Yan and five assistants for Lu Ziqi. They were basically running errands and doing chores. Zhou Xue planned to train first Follow them, and if these people do well, then consider further training.

Zhou Xue bought a nanny car for Xia Yan again, and hired a driver specially. The salary was better than that of Lu Ziqi. Liu Lian was very surprised when she heard the news when she arrived at the company, but she didn't dare to face Zhou Xue. ask something.

Xia Yan changed her clothes in the nanny's car under the care of her assistants. A white tight fishtail skirt set off her fair skin, her dyed chestnut hair was loosely draped behind her shoulders, and she had light makeup on her face. , sitting on the seat with Erlang legs crossed, graceful and charming.

"Sister Liu Lian, you're here." When Liu Lian opened the car door, Xia Yan in the back seat greeted her with a smile.

Liu Lian gave a cold hum, and was about to sit in the co-pilot.

"Sister Liu Lian, please sit here." Xia Yan's attitude towards Liu Lian at this time is completely different from before. She patted the empty seat beside her and said to Liu Lian, "That's the right place. It's the bathroom, I'll be back in a while."

Liu Lian smiled distantly: "No need, I'll sit in the front." As the voice fell, Liu Lian had already sat in the passenger seat and closed the car door.

"But only Dangdang knows the way to the exhibition hall." Xia Yan said again.

Liu Lian became a little impatient: "Don't tell me the driver doesn't know the route?"

The uncle driver next to him scratched his hair in embarrassment, and said with a naive smile: "Sorry, Ms. Liu, I just came to the company not long ago, and I used to run taxis. If I were in the city, I could find them with my eyes closed. But the suburbs are…”

Liu Lian was speechless: "Isn't there car navigation?"

The driver smiled even more embarrassingly: "The navigation was broken the day before yesterday, and I haven't had time to repair it..."

"Okay." Liu Lian got out of the car helplessly, opened the rear door and sat in. The other four assistants sat quietly in their respective seats, and there was only the empty seat next to Xia Yan left behind. Liu Lian could only resign herself to her fate. Go to Xia Yan's side.

The driver didn't start the engine until the male assistant called Dangdang went to the bathroom and came back.

It still takes a certain amount of time to get from the company to the exhibition hall. In addition, there is a traffic jam on the road, and the destination has not been reached after more than two hours of driving and stopping.

I don't know what happened to Xia Yan, since Liu Lian sat next to her, she has been babbling non-stop in Liu Lian's ear, even if Liu Lian ignored her, she didn't seem to notice It seemed as if he kept sticking his hot face to Liu Lian's cold buttocks.The other assistants couldn't help but see a flash of disdain in their eyes. Xia Yan's attitude towards these little assistants was as arrogant as she was, but she seemed to be a different person towards Liu Lian, hugging her thigh was too obvious up.

"Sister Liu Lian, have you had breakfast?" Just as Liu Lian was holding the Ipad and watching intently, Xia Yan squeezed over with a box of sushi, "Dangdang bought this by the way just now, do you want to try it?"

"Sister Xiaoyan, I should mainly go shopping for you, and I'll go to the bathroom by the way." Dangdang turned his head and said to Xia Yan with a playful smile.

"Dangdang, how can you hug Miss Xiaoyan's thigh like this!" A female assistant also said happily,

"That's right." Another female assistant echoed with a smile.

Xia Yan didn't seem to hear what the assistants said, she didn't even give them a look, she picked up a piece of sushi with chopsticks and handed it to Liu Lian's mouth.

"Sister Liu Lian, since your hands are empty, I'll feed you." Xia Yan held the sushi with chopsticks in one hand, and put the other hand under the sushi to prevent the sushi from falling, "Ah——"

Liu Lian was almost annoyed by Xia Yan, why didn't she think that Xia Yan had such a pestering side before?It should be said that Xia Yan in the past didn't bother to pester Liu Lian at all. In her eyes, Liu Lian's manager still needed to rely on her for food. It was really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, and Fengshui took turns.

For the sushi that Xia Yan sent over, Liu Lian just turned her head to avoid it, stared at the Ipad screen intently, and then said coldly: "Eat it, I already had breakfast when I came."

"What are you eating?" Xia Yan's voice was soft, ignoring the fact that the assistants were still watching, her expression was so gentle that it dripped water, as if she was talking to her lover, "You always buy something casually for breakfast. How can you fill your stomach when you can handle things? Let’s have some sushi.”

The assistants clearly sensed the difference in Xia Yan's words, but they all wisely chose to do their own things and dared not discuss Xia Yan's words and deeds.

"No need, I'm full and not hungry." Liu Lian waved her hand and said, "Eat quickly, there are other things to do when you get to the exhibition hall."

Seeing that Liu Lian didn't even look at her, Xia Yan's words were full of alienation and resistance to her, Xia Yan couldn't help curling her lips, and sat on the side eating sushi in small bites, but didn't eat She put the sushi box on the small table again, and looked at Liu Lian, who was still concentrating on her iPad, with her chin propped on her hands.

Finally, the car finally arrived at the exhibition hall amid Liu Lian's long-awaited calls. Liu Lian, who was watched/raped by Xia Yan all the way, said that this journey was too sad.

Before the car drove into the parking lot of the exhibition hall, there was a small group of fans standing guard at the entrance of the parking lot. Although the number was far less than Lu Ziqi's fans, the madness was even worse. The car came up like a radar, stuck to the window and shouted Xia Yan's name frantically.

Xia Yan's assistants are all newcomers who have just graduated from college. Seeing this scene, they clenched their fists and looked very excited. Dangdang turned his head and asked Liu Lian: "Sister Liu Lian, are we going to get off the bus?" Xia Yan's words would be automatically blocked by her arrogant, so the assistants quickly agreed to only look for Liu Lian when they had something to do. Liu Lian is the manager of the famous star Lu Ziqi, and her status must be higher than Xia Yan.

"Wait a while." Liu Lian said while putting the Ipad back in her backpack, "We will get out of the car after the security guards stop the fans."

A minute later, several vicious looking security guards aggressively separated a path from the fan group, and the fans were stopped on both sides and kept pushing forward, shouting Xia Yan's name loudly.

Liu Lian took five assistants and quickly got out of the car with Xia Yan in between. After seeing Xia Yan in person, the fans yelled harder like they had taken a stimulant. Even the security guards on both sides couldn't hold it anymore. Can push fans back vigorously, but can't use too much force to avoid hurting people.

A few people quickly walked into the dressing room at the backstage of the exhibition hall, and the makeup artist who had been waiting there immediately dragged Xia Yan over to start work.When Xia Yan was putting on makeup, Liu Lian stood by her side. She didn't go there voluntarily, but Xia Yan called Liu Lian who was waiting on the sofa from time to time. In the end, Liu Lian simply didn't leave until Xia Yan finished putting on makeup.

"Is the picture ready? Make sure to take a beautiful picture." Xia Yan, who tried her best to widen her eyes and slightly pursed her lips, said, "Let me see when the picture is finished."

Liu Lian took a lot of pictures in a row, and then handed the phone to Xia Yan: "Okay, you can choose yourself, and you can delete the ones that don't look good."

Xia Yan was in a good mood, and took the phone happily. She didn't know what she was doing, but she just fiddled with the phone for a while. After putting down the phone, she said to Liu Lian, "Go and check Weibo."

Liu Lian hummed. Originally, she was just perfunctory and didn't intend to take out her mobile phone to open Weibo. As a result, Xia Yan just looked at her with bright eyes. Liu Lian had no choice but to take out her mobile phone from her backpack.

After entering Weibo, there are many Aite messages and the number of comments displayed. Liu Lian didn’t bother to look through those messages, and directly clicked into Xia Yan’s Weibo. The first Weibo was posted 1 minute ago, and a few pictures were attached. The photo that Liu Lian took of Xia Yan just now is divided into two points. The first is that she has started to work officially after signing with Huazhong Company. The second is that she has a very, very good relationship with her manager Liu Lian. There is love, and in the end Aite loves Liu Lian.

Neuropathy!

Liu Lian scolded in her heart, it was hard for her not to feel that Xia Yan was trying to please her for another purpose, either because she had already signed with Huazhong Company and was her manager, or because she wanted to get to know Lu Ziqi through Liu Lian, anyway Regardless of the purpose, Liu Lian couldn't digest it.

When Xia Yan came on stage to interact with the host, Liu Lian sat alone in the lounge and closed her eyes to rest. The five assistants had never seen such a fresh scene, and they had already formed a group to watch Xia Yan's performance backstage.The lounge with no one else was so quiet that the footsteps of people passing by could be clearly heard outside the door.

At this moment, the mobile phone rang melodiously. Liu Lian took out the mobile phone and looked at the screen of the mobile phone. She was in a daze for a while, and it turned out that it was Lu Ziqi who called.

After calming down, Liu Lian answered the phone and said lightly, "Hello."

"Old Liu." Lu Ziqi's voice came from the receiver. Her voice was not as sharp as other women's, but calm and hoarse, and the voice exuded a mature woman's flavor, which was particularly nice, "With Xia Yan?"

"Well, she's gone to the stage." Liu Lian poked the floor with her feet. Except for the one month she had only been with Lu Ziqi, Liu Lian had never felt that talking to Lu Ziqi was such a stressful thing.

"How is work? Are you still used to getting along with Xia Yan?" Lu Ziqi asked again, and then she asked herself and answered, "Oh, that's right, you two are old lovers, and you will never forget those good memories when you are no longer in a relationship." , presumably once the previous work mode is restored, it will immediately become popular again."

Liu Lian was a little dazed, but at the same time felt angry, she couldn't help but raised her voice and said, "You called to tell me these things? Then let me tell you exactly, I don't even have time to hide from her now."

Lu Ziqi smiled lightly over there, and the melodious laughter was heard in Liu Lian's ears, but it was very harsh: "So you think so, but Xia Yan may not be so, she just became your artist. Can't wait to post on Weibo to announce this relationship, to see how anxious she is."

Liu Lian said coldly: "That's her business, it has nothing to do with me."

"Okay then, let's talk about something related to you." Lu Ziqi immediately changed the subject, "How do you think about the things you said you want to consider? Can I understand the progress?"
