Dressed in Mary Suvin and forced to pretend to be a straight man

The next day was the first day of the new year, Ji Yansheng and Mrs. Ji got up very early, when Ji Ru came down, he saw them having breakfast in the restaurant.

She yawned and came down slowly: "Dad, Mom, Happy New Year."

Mrs. Ji said with a smile, "oh, our little slob got up early today. Where's Xiao Ran?"

Ji Ru sat down at the dining table: "I don't know about him, maybe he went to bed too late yesterday, and he and I are downstairs watching the New Year's Eve."

While they were talking, the upstairs door opened, and Ji Ran came down wearing home clothes. His hair was neatly done, in stark contrast to Ji Ru's messy chicken nest.

Hearing the excitement below, he smiled: "Happy New Year everyone, what were you talking about just now?"

Mrs. Ji said, "I'm talking about why you haven't gotten up yet."

Ji Ru interrupted: "I'm talking about you lazy bastard."

Mrs. Ji glared at her.

"Really?" Ji Ran sat down in his seat and glanced at Ji Ru, "I don't know who sleeps until noon every day."

Mrs. Ji smiled and clapped her hands in response: "Xiao Ran is right."

Even Ji Yansheng, who is as serious as Ji Yancheng, couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips. The family chatted while eating breakfast, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

After eating, the family drove back to the countryside, where Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji lived.

Ji's family is thin, Mr. Ji has only one brother, who died young because of cancer more than [-] years ago, and has no offspring. In Ji Yansheng's generation, Mrs. Ji is not in good health, so he gave birth to a son. Son, there are no other brothers and sisters, and there are even fewer people.

So during the holidays, unlike other people's family with a large group of relatives, there may be less than ten people in their family.

But in this way, the relationship has become closer. They don't have to run around during the New Year, and it is enough to stay at the grandparents' house with peace of mind.

Mr. Ji was a teacher for a while when he was young. His face looked a little serious. When he was not talking, he had a straight face, with the temperament of an old scholar. Ji Yansheng was taught a lot by his father when he was young, and now he looks like this The son was still a little apprehensive.

But his appearance disappeared when he faced his precious grandchildren. As soon as Ji Yancheng stopped the car, he heard the voice of his own father, full of anger: "Hey, Xiao Ran and Xiao Ru are here Well, I haven't come here for so long, but my grandfather is waiting, his hair is almost gray, and he is already an old bone."

Ji Ran got out of the car first, and walked over to help the old man: "Grandpa, I didn't see what you said. Isn't this still as young as before?"

Ji Ru also bouncing down, supported the old man's other hand, and said with a smile: "Grandpa likes to make fun of us with this, we used to come back every year on vacation, don't we have no time recently, I want to shoot TV, Xiaoran has to go to school again, otherwise we would have come back to accompany you long ago. "

Mr. Ji patted the backs of their hands lightly, and laughed a few times: "My grandchildren are still caring."

Ji Yancheng rubbed his nose, and wanted to go up to talk to him, but the old man had already been helped in by two juniors. Mrs. Ji looked at him with a smile: "What? Are you still afraid of your father?"

Ji Yancheng's lips moved, lacking momentum: "Who's scared..."

Mrs. Ji covered her mouth and laughed, afraid of hurting her husband's self-esteem, she didn't dare to laugh out loud.

Mrs. Ji is a gentle and graceful southern woman with a magical power that can make people calm down. When they first came in, she was coming down from upstairs. After seeing Mr. Ji's current appearance, she smiled softly With a soft voice, "Why did you get someone to help you in?"

Mr. Ji is quite strong in front of his wife, with a slightly unnatural expression on his face: "I don't say use it, they just want to support me. I always say that I'm not so old yet."

Obviously, he has forgotten who the person who said he was old just now is.

Ji Ran and Ji Ru looked at each other, but didn't expose him.

The old lady Ji's hair already had many silver strands, but her face didn't look very old. She ordered the servants to put away the things Ji Yancheng brought, and then called everyone to sit down in the living room.

Everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then talked about Ji Ru's recent TV series. Mr. Ji was a little dissatisfied with this, and snorted coldly: "It's not that the family has no money, so what are you going to do with it? It's not a job."

Ji Ru pursed her lips: "Grandpa, I'm not doing my job properly. It's because I like acting, not because of money."

Ji Ru has a straight temper, and Ji Ran was afraid that she would quarrel with the old man, so he patted her arm to comfort her.

The old lady Ji also glared at the old man, stretched out her hand and pinched him under the table, she was really stupid and liked to say, it's the New Year's Eve, and the good atmosphere ruined his words.

Mr. Ji gasped, pouted his mouth like a child, and looked at his wife with dissatisfaction, but he didn't dare to say anything.

The old lady Ji withdrew her hand and smoothed things over: "Xiao Ru, don't trust your grandpa. He used to watch your TV series every day. He not only watched it by himself, but also recommended it to Lao Li and Lao Zhang who are next door. This was taken by his own granddaughter, don't mention how proud he is."

Ji Ru didn't believe it: "Really?"

Mr. Ji snorted, but did not refute.

The older a person is, the more he looks like a child. Now Ji Ru really believes in this point of view. Not only is he not angry, but he also finds it funny: "Then I will reluctantly forgive Grandpa this time."

The whole family laughed.

After laughing enough, Mrs. Ji asked: "Xiao Ru, what are you going to do this year? Mom is just waiting to watch your TV series. It's really boring at home."

Elder Ji also quietly pricked up his ears, intending to take a small notebook in his heart to write it down.

Anyway, I told my family that there is no need to keep any secrets, Ji Ru thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "This year's schedule is full, but most of them are recording variety shows and shooting commercials, there is only one TV series and one movie .”

"The filming of the TV series will start in June, but it will take a long time for post-production and submission for review. It will not be aired until New Year's Day, but the movie should be released in a month or two. I'm almost finished." Ji Ru said She held her face and said coquettishly, "This is the first movie I participated in, Dad, Mom, grandparents, and Xiaoran, you must remember to watch it!"

Mrs. Ji responded again and again: "Okay, okay, mom will definitely take your dad to go."

Mr. Ji frowned: "Where can I watch this movie? We don't have a movie theater in this small village."

Although there is one in the county town, it is relatively far away, and it takes more than an hour by car. He has no problem, but the old lady is used to living in the country for so many years, and her bones can't stand the torment.

The old lady Ji teased him so that he wouldn't spoil everyone's interest again.

But Ji Ru secretly said: "It's okay, I'll ask the director to send me the source of the film, and let you and grandma watch it at home."

The old lady Ji said with a smile: "Look, old man, your granddaughter is so caring, but you are always..."

They chatted lively here, but Ji Ran was stunned, and he didn't recover for a long time.

first movie...

Isn't that where the plot ends in the original book? It was supposed to be released in October, why is it so fast now?

Before the topic was over, Ji Ran suddenly interjected and asked, "Is this movie called "Nightingale"?"

Everyone stopped, and Ji Ru looked at him, wondering, "How do you know?"

Before Ji Ran could speak, she said again: "Say! Have you peeked at my itinerary?"

Ji Ran helplessly spread his hands: "You think too much." If he had peeked at her itinerary, he wouldn't have found out now, and Ji Ru is almost finished now...

Ji Ru said, "Then why are you paying attention to this?"

Ji Ran: "Just to ask, when did the filming of this movie start?"

Ji Ru: "The filming started in October last year. I couldn't find an investor. The director thought it would take until this year to start filming."

Ji Ran pursed his lips, it was because the plot had changed, and he didn't know if this sudden investor had something to do with his butterfly wings.

"Do you know who the investor is?"

Ji Ru nodded: "Of course I know, it's the Shen Yingdi, Xiao Man's brother."

Ji Ran's heart trembled, he didn't understand what Shen Xiuqi meant, but the Gu family has a big business, and Shen Xiuqi is in the entertainment industry, so it's not uncommon for him to invest in some movies: "When will the movie be released?"

Ji Ru pouted: "You are so strange today, why did you ask in such detail. I don't know when the movie will be released, and it will be submitted for review after the post-production is finished. I guess the premiere should be in mid-March, just before your school starts. In about a month or so."

Ji Ran nodded and fell silent.

Mrs. Ji looked at this and then at that, not knowing who the siblings were talking about.

When they were talking here, Mr. Ji had already turned the conversation to his son. Facing Ji Yansheng, he was not so good-tempered, and his tone was serious: "How is the company's situation?"

Ji Yansheng sat up straight silently: "This year's financial report shows..."

They were discussing business here, so Mrs. Ji went to the kitchen, planning to cut some more plates of fruit for them.

Ji Ru just finished talking with her younger brother, and she wanted to come over to help, but she refused: "It's hard for you to come here, grandma will do these things, you go play first."

Once Mrs. Ji got tough, she was even more stubborn than Mr. Ji, so Ji Ru had no choice but to go back to the living room.

When she passed by, it happened that Ji Ran turned her head and walked out, so she asked casually, "Where are you going?"

Ji Ran shook the phone, his face looked a little bad: "Call."

"Oh." Ji Ru watched his back disappear at the door, feeling a little strange in her heart, Ji Ran rarely asked about her itinerary.

the other side.

As soon as Ji Ran walked into the yard, the phone was connected.

Su Bairui's side is very lively, the background sound is very noisy, and there are children's voices in it.

Ji Ran coughed lightly: "Sorry, did I bother you?"

Su Bairui walked to a quieter place and said with a smile: "No, I'm just playing with the children."

She and her younger brother came out of the orphanage, and they would go back during the holidays. They used to have no money to buy things, but this year they can finally bring something, which can be regarded as a little repayment of kindness.

Just as Ji Ran was about to say something, Su Baiyu suddenly came over and shouted into the microphone: "Brother Ran, Happy New Year!"

Su Bairui pushed his head with a smile: "Why are you shouting so loudly?"

Ji Ran was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Happy New Year to you too."

Su Bairui bent her lips: "Happy New Year."

She felt that Ji Ran must have something to say when he called, so she coaxed Su Baiyu away, and when she watched him go away, she whispered to the other end of the phone: "Brother Ran, what happened?" Do you need me to make a trip, I can book tickets now..."

Ji Ran interrupted her, a little dumbfounded: "I haven't said it yet, don't be so anxious, it's actually a trivial matter."

Su Bairui said, "What's wrong?"

Ji Ran's tone was serious: "My contract with you may end early, and I will tell you when the time comes, and Xiaoyu, don't worry, I will help him to go to school, don't put too much pressure on him, concentrate on Read good books and don't keep doing some time-wasting part-time jobs."

Su Bairui was stunned by this string of words: "Brother Ji Ran, this is not good, I can actually do it myself..."

Ji Ran interrupted her: "Did you forget, I'm not free, you have to pay it back when you go out to work in the future, so don't be so anxious to refuse, it's quite an investment I made in you, you Don't let me down."

"Thank you, I will work hard!" Su Bairui felt warm in her heart, and the corners of her lips were still smiling after hanging up the phone.

She looked at her younger brother who was playing games not far away, and thought to herself, they had suffered for the first half of their lives, but thanks to meeting Ji Ran, they had a turning point. He was not only their great benefactor, but also their lucky star.

Pressing the call end button, Ji Ran breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Su Bairui didn't ask him why he terminated the contract early, otherwise he really didn't want to make up another lie.

He was not very good at lying, especially in front of Qi Ye.

Thinking of this, he accidentally opened the WeChat interface, and Qi Ye sent him a new message in the early morning, which seemed to be not long after their meeting.

[y: Sorry, I said something wrong. 】

[y: Can you just take care of me?I'm really having a hard time. 】

[y: I will never do this again, but, Xiaoran. 】

The conversation ended here, Ji Ran hesitated for a while, but still didn't reply.

His feelings towards Qi Ye are very complicated now, especially when he knows that there are less than two months left before the end of the plot.
