My Young Ning [Rebirth]

After the little ball pine was brought back to the artist's apartment, it was placed on the dining table first.Because the dining table is big enough, and there is a large glass window next to it, which is ventilated and has plenty of sunlight.When there is no announcement, Yan Youning will keep his laptop here to browse the web and play games, or sit here to read books and look up information.However, when it was time to go to bed at night, Yan Youning felt that such a small potted plant was too lonely to be left alone in the empty living room, so he took it back to the bedroom and put it on the bedside table.

The small plants, including the flower pots, are not as tall as his palm, and when they are far away, they can only see a small blur of green.But Yan Youning couldn't help but want to look at it, after changing clothes, or coming out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he would always glance over to make sure it was still there obediently.

Yan Youning himself felt that this kind of childlike mentality was a bit inexplicable, as if it was not a plant but a puppy, and would run away when it turned around.But he would still lean over to take a look if he had nothing to do, to see if the ball of green, fuzzy flower-like pine needles had shrunk due to thirst.In fact, he also knew that the soil in the flower pot was still soft when he brought it back in the afternoon, and the plants don't need much water in winter, so they shouldn't be thirsty so quickly.But this urge to be ready to meet its needs at any time is still incredibly strong.

It's a feeling of being needed by something.It was the first time since Yilian passed away that he felt this kind of feeling of being needed.Even though it is just a small plant, when he thinks that without his care, it will wither and die of thirst, when he thinks that his existence is so important to it, Yan Youning even feels... excited .

"I'm a little nervous." Yan Youning leaned against the head of the bed, and patted his head in frustration, "I must have been hit by Li Ao's crow's mouth. I am young and vigorous, full of vigor, another day I was worried all the time, and I finally got myself nervous."

Xiao Qiusong, bathed in the soft light, quietly listened to his whining.

Yan Youning stretched out his fingers and lightly touched its flower-like ball-shaped pine needles, and sighed softly, "We will depend on each other from now on, Mao Mao." Yan Youning once thought about raising a big dog with the same name. It's all good, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to raise it.The dog name can be temporarily used for the new pet, "Do you like this name? I think it fits your appearance, fluffy, so cute."

Xiao Qiusong was silent.

"Good night. Momo."

The next morning, Yan Youning woke up a bit late, after washing up, he hurriedly took a taxi to school.Get off the car outside the east gate, and trot all the way to the direction of the library.He made an appointment with Xu Xiangbei to borrow his notes to review today, the final exam is about to be due, and he might be in danger if he misses a few more classes.

Half a road away, Yan Youning saw Xu Xiangbei standing on the steps of the library waiting for him.Maybe it's because he hasn't taken too many part-time jobs recently, has a good rest, and is emotionally proud. Xu Xiangbei seems to be in much better spirits than before.In particular, he was wearing a royal blue down jacket, which made him look even more energetic.

Yan Youning was about to trot over there, when two girls came over and blocked his way.Yan Youning felt that they looked very unfamiliar, but he didn't know if they were students of our school.But seeing them holding cameras and autograph books, you can tell that they are fans again.Yan Youning was specially told by Ling Ao that if it wasn't a particularly chaotic situation, he would smile at fans who came up to ask for their autographs and photos.

"Yan Youning?" The girl in the white down jacket shyly handed over the book, "Can I sign it? We all went to see "The Stone Gambler". Your performance is great."

"Thank you." Yan Youning smiled, "Any comments?"

The two girls shook their heads with sparkling eyes, and the girl in the white down jacket asked again, "Will you continue filming?"

"Yes." Yan Youning handed back the signed notebook, and said with a smile, "There may be another play in the near future, but the details haven't been announced yet, so keep it secret."

The two girls hurriedly nodded together, although Yan Youning didn't say anything that needed to be kept secret.

Xu Xiangbei on the steps in the distance looked at Yan Youning's signature, and then smiled and took a photo with the girl, smiling unconsciously.He has seen Yan Youning in the most down-and-out state, and he also had the experience of sharing a bowl of instant noodles with two people in the middle of the night, so seeing Yan Youning's current state is particularly emotional.

Yan Youning said goodbye to the fans friendly, and trotted over.Xu Xiangbei didn't care about greeting him, so he dragged him into the library, sat down in a corner away from people's eyes, and Xu Xiangbei showed him his notes.Yan Youning was busy filming some time ago, and missed a lot of classes. Seeing that the final exam was about to be due, he was somewhat concerned.At this juncture, Xu Xiangbei's practical performance is fully displayed.He memorized the notes in more detail than anyone else, and drew the key points clearly. Yan Youning only needs to make a quick dash according to the review outline he gave.

"You are simply a genius." Yan Youning was elated, "I'll treat you to dinner after I finish my work. What do you want to eat? By the way, bring your dear one with you, is it called Wu Ying?"

Xu Xiangbei didn't twitch with him, took out his mobile phone and started sending text messages to his little lover with a smirk on his face.You came and I went back and forth for a few rounds, and told Yan Youning, "Xiaoying said to eat hot pot."

Yan Youning was happy.On the day of the premiere, it was still "Wu Ying", but now it has become "Xiao Ying", which shows that the progress is rapid.

Wu Ying chose a Sichuan hot pot restaurant not far from the business school. When the two brothers rushed over, Wu Ying had already arrived one step ahead, holding a stack of posters and waiting for Yan Youning to sign.

"So many?!" Xu Xiangbei was startled.

Wu Ying stuck out her tongue embarrassingly, "Big star, don't be surprised, the girls in our department are all your fans. If you don't want to sign too much, let me take a few photos and take them back to give them an eye craving. "

"It's okay." Although it was the first time we met, Yan Youning still had a good impression of Wu Ying, so he smiled and said, "You are not outsiders. I will sign for you later."

Xu Xiangbei flicked her forehead with his finger, "Don't do this kind of physical work for You Ning next time."

Wu Ying stretched out her hand to make an oath, "Promise!"

Yan Youning took out a signature pen from his backpack and teased her with a smile, "Promise to take care of things or promise not to do things?"

"No trouble!" Wu Ying also laughed, "Hey, Yan Youning, I haven't thanked you for the movie ticket yet. It's the first time I've seen a movie premiere when I grow up. There are so many stars, it's really enjoyable .”

Yan Youning lowered his head to sign and said with a smile: "No problem, I will save the premiere tickets for both of you when the new movie is released." He said "you two", if Wu Ying did something, I'm sorry Xu Xiang Bei's matter caused the two to break up. After that, the tickets for the premiere will not matter to her.

Wu Ying naturally heard what he meant, and made a face at Xu Xiangbei, and the two laughed together.

Twenty or so movie posters of "The Gambling Stone" were signed when the white soup in the pot boiled.Wu Ying took the initiative to push the shrimp slippery in front of him, "Xiang Bei said you like this the most, so I specially ordered two dishes."

"Thank you." Yan Youning looked at the red layer of oil in the small pot in front of her, and shrunk his neck involuntarily.He and Xu Xiangbei like to eat hot pot, but neither can eat spicy food.This girl's taste is very sturdy.

"Is there any program the day after tomorrow?" Wu Ying asked him.

"The day after tomorrow?" Yan Youning was puzzled.

"Christmas Eve, big star, you won't even forget this." Wu Ying called out, "Xiang Bei and I also said that we would invite you to the Old West Market Church to watch the New Year's Mass there."

"Christmas Eve..." Yan Youning was dumbfounded.The dim light of the street on a snowy night suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, which made him feel a little lost unconsciously.The fine and flying snowflakes, the Christmas tree with flashing lights in front of the store, and the tall figure quietly waiting for him...

"You Ning?" Xu Xiangbei pushed his arm, slightly worried in his eyes, "What are you thinking?"

"Thinking about Christmas." Yan Youning came back to his senses, and smiled perfunctorily, "You two go to activities by yourself, I won't be a light bulb. It's still such a big wattage."

"It's not just the two of us, there are other people too. It's a festival, it's lively when there are many people." After Wu Ying finished speaking, she remembered Yan Youning's new identity.He is an artist now, the company may have other arrangements.Even if there is no arrangement, it would be very troublesome for him to be recognized by fans in a crowd.

Yan Youning didn't want the topic to revolve around Christmas, so he intentionally changed the subject, "Does Xiangbei continue to work part-time?"

"I won't take up those casual jobs anymore, not to mention earning less, and time is also very troublesome." Xu Xiangbei poured a glass of Coke for Yan Youning, with a little bit of uncontrollable excitement on his face, "I I just had an interview with a trading company the day before yesterday, and the conversation was pretty good at the time, but it’s hard to say what happened in the end.”

"Trading company?" Yan Youning didn't quite understand, "What kind of trading company?"

"Specialized in import and export," Xu Xiangbei tried to recall the company introduction he saw at the time, "The company is headquartered in the United States, and the branch here is mainly responsible for special products near the island city. It is also related to several European countries. We have business contacts, so we have our own translation department.”

When Yan Youning heard the words "headquartered in the United States", his heart couldn't help but move.But then I thought about it, I don't know how many trading companies headquartered in Daocheng in the United States, how could there be such a coincidence?Besides, it's really such a coincidence... There is nothing to make a fuss about, public is public, private is private, and character cannot explain work ability.

"What's the name of the company you're interviewing for?"

"It's called Bohua."

Hua again? !China Airlines, Huayi, and now Bohua... Could it be that there is a relationship between them?When Yan Youning heard this word, he felt disgusted.Having said that, in the following time, Yan Youning was always thinking about this matter consciously or unconsciously.It is unnecessary to ask Ming Feng directly. If there is a chance, maybe I can see that shrewd special assistant again.Yan Youning thought, when the time comes, it's always okay to inquire around the bush.

Well, when the time comes, you must pretend not to care and inquire.

Two days passed without any disturbance, and it was Christmas in a blink of an eye.

Young people are always looking forward to this kind of festival to express their feelings. It is obviously several hours before dark, and everyone is dressed up and can't wait to go to the festival.Xu Xiangbei was one of the group of flirtatious fans who disappeared after two audio-visual classes.According to Yan Youning's estimation, he must have gone straight to the business school to report.

Yan Youning was a little bored.Since Yilian left, he felt bored whenever there was a holiday.Even during the years in the Guan family, it was still the same.Aristocratic families always get together in the old house during the New Year and holidays. People who are usually out of touch will also show up, eat and drink, those who play soy sauce find friends with real power, those who give red envelopes give red envelopes, and those who receive red envelopes receive red envelopes. The excitement is over. They left in a rush, feeling lonelier than before the party.

Both tired and lonely.

After going around such a big circle, Yan Youning actually had the opportunity to celebrate the festival by himself. Although it is still inevitable that he will be lonely, but no matter what, it is better to lie in his own hot bed and play games than to stand among a group of half-baked people to observe their words and fawn on them. Flatter.

When Yan Youning walked out of the teaching building, he roughly planned his holiday plan in his mind: go to the supermarket first, stock up on some food, then go home to take a shower, change into his nightgown and sit on the bed to play games, If you are hungry, cook hot pot for yourself, and then continue playing the game.

At noon this holiday season, though, the classic theory was proven once again: The so-called plan, it just isn't changing fast.

Yan Youning went to the supermarket according to his own plan, and brought back a large bag of food, both raw and cooked.Then I took a taxi home, took a shower and changed into a nightgown, poured water on Maomao, and was about to put on the computer table and enter the bed to play games when the phone rang.

It's an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" Yan Youning clamped the phone between his ears and neck, and reached out to get the duck neck and beer from the refrigerator.Well, it’s better not to put it in the refrigerator just now, do you want to heat it up before eating?

A familiar man's voice on the phone asked naturally, "Have you had lunch yet?"

"No, I'm planning to eat." Yan Youning followed his questions before realizing that the voice was...

"Have you ever eaten farm food? The kind of stewed meat in a big pot." Ming Feng's voice is very calm, just like the feeling of ordinary friends chatting, which naturally makes people not feel guarded, and the topic he is talking about is also very different. Very effective in deepening this effect.As expected, Yan Youning's train of thought was taken away by the cauldron of stewed meat.

"Is there a big pot of stewed meat?" Yan Youning searched in his memory, "No. One year my mother took me to a resort in the suburbs to go fishing, where I ate fish boiled in a big pot and chicken stewed with mountain mushrooms."

"Almost." Ming Feng's voice revealed a little laughter, "Do you know that there is a Madian Village in the southern suburbs? They have a famous farm banquet there. After eating there, you can visit the greenhouse in the village. Big shed."

"Great shed?" Yan Youning was surprised, "What do you grow? Vegetables?"

"No, it's planting flowers." Ming Feng was amused by his tone, "It's a flower shed, flowers, bonsai, and some pets. Are you interested in taking a look?"

Yan Youning's heart moved slightly, "Is it the same bonsai as Mao Mao?"

"Maomao?" Ming Feng was confused, did he say a person's name?

"It's just..." Yan Youning suddenly realized who he was chatting with, and suddenly felt a little annoyed that he had let down his vigilance, and his tone became less friendly, "It's Xiaoqiu Song."

Ming Feng didn't notice the change in his tone, and said to himself: "Yes, the little ball pine was bought in their shed, and there are many flowers and plants that are rarely seen outside, all very beautiful .”

There are also many flowers and plants that are rarely seen outside...

Yan Youning glanced at the furry branches on the bedside table basking in the sun, and felt a slight itch in his heart.

Ming Feng's tone became more and more kind, "Actually, I want to ask you for a favor. I have a client here, who is French. I don't know where I heard about this place, and I want to visit it. Her interpreter is here temporarily. No. So..." After a pause, Ming Feng continued: "It's only noon now, if all goes well, I'll be back before dinner. I wonder if it will be too much trouble for you?"

If you can help, you can consider it.Yan Youning glanced at Mao Mao again, thinking that it would be good to take this opportunity to repay the favor——
