Yesterday was like Death

When Xi Zonghe was in good health, we flew back to China as soon as we attacked.

The embassy staff escorted us to the airport. On the way, they sighed and said that the local corruption is serious, and there are even precedents of collusion between officials and bandits. They can only try their best to urge the police to solve the case as soon as possible. It will be a while before they make a move.

The subtext probably tells us that this case is likely to end up like this, and we can only admit that we are unlucky.

Xi Zonghe didn't react much when he heard the words. He threw 200 million US dollars into the big hole in Africa without blinking an eye.

"It's okay, just spend 200 million on marketing." He smiled at the staff.

At the beginning, I actually still had some pain in my flesh. After hearing what he said, I thought about it, now that the whole country knows about the movie "Lion", isn't it just a successful promotion?Spending money on advertising seriously may not be able to achieve such an effect.

Holding such a spirit of Ah Q, I suddenly felt that the 200 million flowers were not so wronged.

When the plane landed, a large number of media fans emerged on the scene.Although there was no sound of gongs and drums, the sea of ​​people was really overwhelming, as if there was no end in sight.

The fans screamed the names of me and Xi Zonghe frantically, and when they saw the white bandage exposed under the brim of Xi Zonghe's hat, they cried like they were about to die.

I looked at the "Welcome Home" light board they held up high, and I felt a little warmth in my heart.It’s good to be an idol, no matter how far away you go, there will always be people talking about you, waiting for you to come home.

After we got out of the airport, Xi Zonghe and I got into the nanny cars respectively.Before getting in the car, the two of us turned our heads to look at each other at the same time, and after discovering this tacit action, we smiled at each other at the same time.

There was no crying from the fans, and the car suddenly fell silent, but before I could breathe a sigh of relief, Wenwen rushed forward crying again, expressing her joy and fear for the rest of my life with tears.

"Brother Gu, you can't be busy!" She sniffed, "Otherwise, who will pay us?"

Sang Qing rolled her eyes, and pulled her away by the end of her hair.

"Don't be so hands-on all the time, be careful that Mr. Xi sees you peeled off your skin."

Wenwen rubbed her painful scalp, curled her lips and said, "It's hard to control the situation at the moment, I also saw Brother Gu getting excited."

"If you keep doing this, Mr. Xi will definitely replace you."

"Oh, brother Sang Qing, don't scare me!"

Watching the two of them quarreling and bickering, I actually saw the taste of the quiet time, I shook my head amusedly, and turned my gaze out of the window.

Due to the unexpected cancellation of the location in East Africa, many scenes can only be used in post.Li Xinping calculated that even if he borrowed the shed to set up the scene at the fastest speed, it would take a month to complete it.He held a two-day video conference with Xi Zonghe and the screenwriter, and finally decided to significantly reduce the plot in Africa and increase the location in the United States.The domestic scenes were built first, and it didn't matter if it took a little longer. They went to the United States to shoot the exterior scenes first, and then returned to China to shoot the studio scenes.

Since Xi Zonghe's head injury is not healed, the script is still being revised, and the crew also needs to make preparations for going to the United States. Li Xinping gave everyone a week's rest.

When I was in East Africa, as soon as the news of my kidnapping spread, too many people called to inquire about the situation.Sang Qing couldn't handle it, so she simply turned off the phone.After that, I was fine, so I sent a message in the circle of friends to report that I was safe, and I didn't call back one by one.

However, it was this news that Gu Ni saw on the day I returned to China.

She was always devoted to research and didn't pay much attention to people in the outside world. I don't know how she suddenly wanted to visit my circle of friends.After all, even Xi Zonghe was in a car accident before, and I had to tell her.

This is probably God's will.

"Gu Tang, why didn't you inform me of such a big event? Are you trying to scare me to death!" Gu Ni cried, "Do you know how worried I was when I saw that circle of friends?" you?"

I was a little helpless: "This is not a good thing. Do you want me to make a big fanfare and everyone say it again?"

She might have been really scared, sobbing and crying: "Don't go to that kind of place in the future, it's fine if there are too many parasitic infectious diseases, and it's still like this mess. Filming is too hard, let me support you, even though my The salary is not as much as yours, but you don't have to work hard!"

She has persuaded me countless times over the years, but this time is the most exciting.

I have never felt so clearly for a moment that my sister has grown up, and she is no longer the little girl who cries all day long and falls behind me and calls "brother".

"Don't worry, it's just an accident, it won't happen in the future."

From now on, I can choose Suo Jun's script and Xi Zonghe's resources, so why do I have to risk my life?

In the end, I still didn't tell her that Rong Shen was my biological father. Anyway, I didn't intend to recognize him.

Although Gu Ni has grown up, but out of the mentality of a silly brother, I always want to protect her as much as possible and not let her worry about trivial matters.

The popularity of reality shows has not subsided before, and with this kidnapping incident, Sangqing received invitations to many talk shows as soon as he returned to China.

I chose one of the more established ones to participate, and unexpectedly ran into Chu Yao in the TV station building.

Compared with the way I saw her last winter, she is now thinner and her makeup is more refined.The waist is slender, and she doesn't look like she had a child at all.Followed by assistants and managers, wearing sunglasses, stepping on high heels, walking in front with such an imposing manner that I almost couldn't recognize him.

She walked past me from a distance, and the two of us didn't meet each other, and naturally we didn't say hello.

"She has good resources now. It is said that she has signed several big IPs. If this momentum continues, she should be popular." Sang Qing said following my gaze.

"That's not necessarily true." I withdrew my distant gaze.

If Rong Ruyu wanted to tear her apart, it would be a matter of minutes.

During the interview, the host naturally asked about the recent hot news, some details about the kidnapping.

"Were you scared at the time?" the hostess asked me.

"Not scared at first, but a little bit later."

The other party was surprised: "Why are you afraid in the back? Why are you against others."

I explained: "In the beginning I was locked up with Xi Zonghe, and I wasn't afraid, but later he left first, and I was naturally afraid when I was alone."

The audience burst into thunderous applause and laughter, and the host asked with a smile, "Why did he leave first? Did the kidnappers let him go?"

"It's not so fast to raise money. When the first million was raised, the kidnapper said that he could release someone first. Xiaohe was injured and still had a fever. Of course I let him go first." I smiled lightly, "They're just asking for money and I know I'll be fine."

Xi Zonghe will not let me have trouble.

Back in the car after the interview, Sang Qing checked the itinerary with me with an iPad.Ma Dao's "The Wind and Cranes" has been finalized, and the trailers are being released one after another recently for publicity. He asked me if I want to go to Weibo to warm up.

Ever since I was ruined by the whole network, I haven't logged in to my Weibo account. I leave it to Sang Qing to take care of it. If I want to use it, I use the small account.

"No, you should help me take care of it." I thought about it.

For me, the large size seems to be useless except for work promotion, and it is not as useful as the small size.Xi Zonghe's own Weibo is also managed by Tang Li. It is well-organized and has his own characteristics. He usually posts wine or calligraphy and paintings.

"Okay, then I will continue to take care of it for you." Sang Qing didn't force me, and bowed his head to type on the iPad after getting a reply.

I went to Weibo to check out the official preview of "The Crane in the Wind". It has been forwarded tens of thousands, and the comments are all crying with real emotion, saying that the official wedding candy has been released.

I was still wondering what this "happy candy" meant, and the phone screen switched to the incoming call mode.

"Xiaohe..."

Seeing that it was Xi Zonghe, I quickly picked up the phone, and was interrupted by him after only two words.

"You come to Hengyue Mountain Villa immediately." He paused, "You are alone."

He was mysterious and didn't say anything.

Originally, I was going back to my own residence, but I was interrupted by him, so I had to turn around and drive to the suburbs again.

Hengyue Mountain Villa is quite far from the urban area, and it took more than an hour to drive there.

The car stopped at the gate, I got out of the car and entered the community, and let Sang Qing and the others go back.

Tonight is a fine day with a bright moon and few stars. The night wind blows on the cheeks, neither hot nor cold, and the temperature is suitable.

Walking slowly along the path, I couldn't help guessing why Xi Zonghe was in such a hurry for me to come here. After thinking about it, my phone vibrated and a text message came.

"Come to the courtyard?" I whispered, and when I looked up, I could see the villa in front of me, and the courtyard door was indeed open.

The surroundings are not very bright, the tall tree crowns are surrounded by each other, and the leaves rustle when the wind blows, which looks a bit gloomy at night.

The lights in the yard were not turned on, so I turned around and reached the other side of the house, but I still couldn't find Xi Zonghe.

"Little Crane? Are you there?" I looked around with my head full of doubts.

With a "bang", I was unprepared and was taken aback by the fireworks exploding in the night sky.

One after another fireworks rose to the sky, bloomed, and turned into golden rain of stars and fell one after another.

I stood there in a daze, staring intently.

The fireworks show was still going on, and all the lights in the courtyard were suddenly lit up.I heard footsteps, looked back, and Xi Zonghe happened to be looking at each other.

He walked to an arm's length away from me, and took the hand that had been behind his back to the front, holding a delicate red leather ring box in his hand, and opened it towards me.

"Gu Tang, are you willing to be with me?" He didn't know whether it was awkward or nervous, and he stopped looking at me after saying this.

On the deep red velvet cushion is a rose gold plain ring, without any extra lines, very simple and generous.

Holding my breath, I took the ring box from him and asked, "Where's yours?"

He raised his eyes, stretched out his right hand and showed me the back of his hand, his ring finger was shining brightly.

My eyes felt hot for a moment, I took out the ring from the box and put it on my hand with a chuckle, and held it up for him to see.

"I am willing."

After experiencing such an innocent disaster, I understand the truth of cherishing the present moment and leaving no regrets.

Everything must be alive, and so is the lover.

Hearing my answer, Xi Zonghe's facial features, which had been a little stiff from the beginning, suddenly relaxed, and the corners of his lips raised slightly unconsciously.

He stretched his arms around me and held me tightly in his arms.

"Thank you, Gu Tang." He pressed his lips against my temples, asked me endlessly if I blamed him, and thanked me endlessly.

However, he does have a lot to thank me for.

I hugged him back, leaning against his body.The fireworks are beautiful and the wind is very comfortable. I close my eyes and my heart is full of emotions.

Such a scene, I never dared to dream about.

"You're welcome." I said with a smile.
