You’re My Belated Happiness
Chapter 22:
Ruan Yu asked more: "Are you just going back?"
"Ok."
"Then you have dinner?"
"I'll talk when it comes." Xu Huaisong started the car and asked silently, "Or do you want to eat now?"
She shook her head: "I had afternoon tea in the mall and I am not hungry." She took out her mobile phone and refunded the high-speed rail ticket.
The sky is completely dark. The street lights on both sides of the road were shining bright yellow, red, green and green traffic lights were projected on the windshield, reflecting the light and shadow inside the car.
The heavy rain was pouring, and the wipers repeated the mechanical action back and forth, setting off the atmosphere between the two people more quietly, so quiet that sleepiness began to grow and spread.
Ruan Yu, who was faintly dozing off, suddenly took a breath of air until he drove away from the feasting city center, breaking the peace.
Xu Huaisong tilted his head to look at her: "What?"
"Are you driving without a license?"
Seeing her clutching the seat belt in front of her, as if her personal safety was seriously threatened, Xu Huaisong seemed to smile: "I just thought about it now, it's too late."
It's really late. Ruan Yu also caught a glimpse of the car in front with a "Novice on the road" icon, and remembered that Xu Huaisong had asked Liu Mao to send him to the hotel because he did not have a driver's license.
She turned her head stiffly to look at him: "Long distance... is this bad?"
Xu Huaisong sighed: "I took the test." Seeing her questioning eyes, she explained, "Holding an American driver's license, you only need to pass the test once, and you don't need a road test."
Oh, no wonder it's so fast.
Ruan Yu relaxed, only then realized that Xu Huaisong was kidding her just now? The joke of Kaolin Flower?
She quietly glanced at him from the corner of the light, unable to distinguish the true emotions in his eyes behind those gold-rimmed glasses. But it seems to be in a good mood.
She instead told him: "Then don't go on the high speed." She remembered that the domestic driver's license must be held in her hand for a year to get on the high speed.
Xu Huaisong gave an "um" and noticed that she was yawning, but she kept her eyelids on the road and said, "I have been driving in the United States for eight years."
"Huh?" Ruan Yu turned his head inexplicably.
"So don't think that if you close your eyes now, you won't have a chance to open them."
"..."
She first gave a dry laugh, feeling that it was not enough to get rid of the embarrassment in the air, so she gave another dry laugh.
It was so miserable to be Xu Huai Songpai. How does Liu Mao endure this day by day?
But Ruan Yu couldn't sleep anymore at this time. Close her eyelids as soon as her life safety is guaranteed, can she not settle her previous suspicions of him?
So she took out her phone to relieve her sleepiness, thought about it, and sent a flattering circle of friends to make up for her mistake: "The rain is ruthless, the world is affectionate, and salute all the heroes who are helpful! [hold boxing]"
The attached picture is a screenshot of a still from "Meteor Garden": After Daoming Temple left Shancai, it stood pitifully in the heavy rain, drenching it alive into a scene of "sweet noodles".
A reply is skipped in the next second. It's Li Chican. After the Oolong incident last time, he re-added her WeChat account, but he hasn't actively contacted her for a while.
Looking at the phrase "Who was stuck by you again", Ruan Yu choked at the bottom of his throat. Are big stars so idle?
She didn't know what to reply, and sent an emoticon. After she quit Moments, she saw a new message in the message bar.
From the film and television editor: "Wen Xiang, do you really plan to give up this book? Huan Vision has offered a new price, and is willing to buy the currently unfinished version. Please continue writing by the professional screenwriter. You don't need to worry about it later.
She glanced at Xu Huaisong next to her and typed silently: "Sorry, I really don't want to sell this IP."
The other party quickly replied: "Are you not going to hear about the new price?"
Nephrite: "How much?"
A series of numbers popped up on the screen.
A string of numbers with many zeros.
Ruan Yu nearly knocked his chin on the phone.
Xu Huaisong glanced at her and said nothing.
She turned her head and sent the screenshot to Shen Mingying, and got a reply like this: "This is not for sale, your brain is flooded? Even if it's not for money, you have to think about your future. Can the online literary circle let you mix for a lifetime? Sooner or later, we have to go out and target more groups, or transform into a screenwriter. Isn’t it more interesting to run on the studio and go deep into the entertainment industry?"
Ruan Yu had to admit that she was a little moved.
She is also a layman and cares about money. I gave up the serialization before and have already lost a lot of income, and because I broke the contract with the publishing company and paid a lot of liquidated damages, how could it be painless?
Moreover, it is indeed impossible for her to be a net writer for a lifetime.
The opportunity to break free of the bottleneck is already here.
Holding her cell phone, she looked at Xu Huaisong: "Lawyer Xu, please tell you something."
"Ok."
"Huanshi intends to buy my ip, do you think I should agree?"
Xu Huaisong was silent for a while, and asked instead, "Is there any reason for not agreeing?"
Ruan Yu choked.
The only reason is not to scruple him. But think about it, until now, he hasn't noticed anything. Does making a book into a movie will make him "restore his memory"?
Besides, when the movie is released, they have already become strangers who have no intersection, it doesn't matter.
Ruan Yu nodded and made up his mind: "Oh, then sell it."
After returning to the news, she seldom heard Xu Huaisong take the initiative to ask: "If it is adapted into a movie, what will be the ending?"
Ruan Yuxin said that she didn't know that, and said with a smile: "Nowadays, many adaptations don't respect the original work, and I don't necessarily have the right to decide."
"According to the original?"
Ruan Yu fell silent.
According to her original idea, at the end of the story, two liberal arts brothers meet for a graduation trip. The heroine carefully planned a confession, intending to explain her heart to the hero during the journey. But when she repeatedly confirmed to the organizer that the "male protagonist will come", he still missed the appointment.
It's exactly the same as reality.
It’s just that in the novel, the actor’s missed appointment will be given some reason, but in reality, Ruan Yu thinks, Xu Huaisong’s refusal to attend the appointment is because he has no nostalgia for the No.
She talked about the ending and asked: "Is it a bit abusive?"
Xu Huaisong's hands on the steering wheel slowly tightened, opened his mouth and closed it, and finally gave an "um".
Ruan Yu laughed very relievedly: "But it's actually a Happy Ending."
"How to say?"
"Because the heroine will let go of the actor."
The hardest thing to cure in the world is never "broken love" but "secret love." Because in the "secret love", you have not worked hard, have not been hurt by that person, and everything you see and hear is his beautiful appearance, so you will always be bound by yourself.
But once you pluck up all the courage to try and are completely defeated, then this "secret love" that is difficult to get better will become a "broken love" that can be cured.
The world is very big and the years are very long. The heroine will let go of the hero.
Xu Huaisong didn't breathe for more than ten seconds.
The speed of the car exceeded a hundred yards.
He suddenly remembered what he had seen before, a writer's evaluation of Ruan Yu's text: In a few words, he digs out corruption from romance, and finally turns corruption into splendor. The little girl's words are too clear.
Yes, she lives too well.
It seems timid, but knowing that he is going to study in the United States, he doesn't think that is an insurmountable obstacle.
It seems nostalgic, but I haven't really regretted everything in the past.
"You are speeding, Lawyer Xu!" Ruan Yu's loud reminder interrupted his thoughts.
He slowed down with a "Oh", and said after a long time, "The producer will not accept this ending."
Ruan Yu didn't understand that he meant something, and nodded in agreement: "I think too."
When Ruan Yu opened his eyes again, the outside world was calm. It didn't rain in Hangzhou, and the car stopped downstairs in her apartment.
She rubbed her eyes in a daze and realized that she was asleep, but Xu Huai Songan sat quietly in the driver's seat and did not wake her up.
She was surprised and asked: "How long did I sleep? Why don't you wake me up?"
"Just stepped on the brakes and prepared to call you."
She glanced at her phone suspiciously and found that it was already very late, far more than the journey needed.
Xu Huaisong glanced at her and explained: "There is a traffic jam on the road."
Oh, I see.
She loosened the seat belt, pulled the door and said, "Thank you, Attorney Xu, then I will go up first. You must be safe on the way back."
Xu Huaisong didn't answer, and he paused and said, "I'm hungry."
Ruan Yu stepped on a crooked foot and looked back in surprise.
This sentence "I'm hungry", how did she forcibly hear the smell of "I'm hurt"?
She reacted: "Oh, I slept confused and forgot that you haven't eaten yet... Then, do you want to go up there and eat something?"
Xu Huaisong nodded and got out of the car with her.
When I was about to enter the door of the apartment, a group of aunts who had just returned from the square dance passed by the road. Xu Huaisong suddenly moved from her right hand to the left, and made a gesture of raising her hand, pressing her temple.
Ruan Yu was confused, glanced at the group of aunts who were going by the wind, and said, "What's the matter?"
"It's okay."
He couldn't say that he was just covering his face, lest he be recognized as the drunk that day.
As the saying goes, once he was born and twice familiar, Ruan Yu was less restrained this time. After he came in, he even opened the shoe cabinet very smoothly and took out a pair of slippers for him.
Since Li Shican and Xu Huaisong came here one after another before the fight, she went to the supermarket one time and bought men's slippers to be prepared.
A smile appeared in Xu Huaisong's eyes, and when she turned her head into the kitchen, she said, "First go and change clothes."
Ruan Yu was taken aback, and looked down at his muddy skirt.
Yes, it is not very hygienic.
She said "Oh" and told him to sit in the living room for a while, then turned to enter the bedroom. The moment I closed the door, I suddenly realized that my heart was a little big.
Such a big man is just outside the door, where is she changing clothes carefree?
Thinking about this, she deliberately made the sound of continuous coughing, and then secretly locked the door behind the noise.
But Xu Huaisong outside the door still heard a slight "click". He was stunned, laughed angrily, got up and left the sofa.
When Ruan Yu came out, the living room was empty and Xu Huaisong was washing the dishes in front of the kitchen sink.
It was the dishes that she didn't have time to wash after breakfast today.
A strong sense of guilt arose spontaneously. Look, people are obviously such a gentleman who can learn from the sun and the moon!
She hurried forward: "What kind of dishes are you washing?"
Xu Huaisong put a few sets of clean dishes, dried his hands, and said, "Meal expenses."
In response to his attitude of not eating free food, Ruan Yu made a bowl of noodle soup, shredded pork with vegetables, shrimp and egg skin. This color combination is more sincere than traffic lights.
After Xu Huaisong had finished eating, she was going to wash the dishes again, but she stopped him: "Your hands are too expensive, so I will come."
"Exquisite?" he asked rhetorically.
"Isn't it often said in idol dramas that the hands of the piano cannot be injured?"
"..."
Xu Huaisong didn't ask her how he knew he could play the piano. Don't ask, you know, there must be reports on the Internet.
Ruan Yu took the bowls and chopsticks and went to the kitchen. He sat in the living room thoughtfully and sent a message to Chen Hui on his mobile phone: "Help me prepare a piano."
Chen Hui: "Wow Song, you can still play the piano? It's so versatile."
Xu Huaisong did not answer, leaning back in his chair and sighed.
I can't play anymore. I haven't touched it for eight years. I don't even know how to recognize the staff. After finishing the driver’s license test, it’s time to get back to the “Huaze” line of business, and then study and brush up the questions while preparing to participate in the domestic judicial examination in September.
Which hero in her novel, lives as grounded as him?
Seeing the time, he got up and walked to the kitchen, knocked on the door panel: "I'm going back."
Ruan Yu was washing the dishes, turned his head and glanced at him, washed his hands, and said, "Oh, okay, I'll take you downstairs."
"..."
She really didn't list him on the "boyfriend" reserve at all, so she was polite.
He refused the VIP treatment: "No." After speaking in silence, he asked, "The court will be held the day after tomorrow."
"Well, yes."
"I also had a trial in San Francisco that day."
Ruan Yu felt that he talked a little bit today, and after thinking about it, he understood the meaning of the twists and turns.
He was saying that he could not attend her trial.
But what is there? Even if he did, he didn't have a domestic lawyer's qualification certificate, so he couldn't stand on the lawyer's bench.
She said, "It doesn't matter, there is Lawyer Liu."
Xu Huaisong said "um", turned his head and changed his shoes to go out, and went downstairs.
Ruan Yu stood in front of the sink and continued to wash the dishes. Hearing the sound of the car starting, he looked down and saw the Cayenne slowly driving out of the street of the community, condensed into a small spot in the night, and finally disappeared completely.
In her mind, a poem by Zheng Chouyu suddenly appeared-"I walked through Jiangnan, and the face that waits in the season is like a lotus blooming and falling... My Dada's horseshoes are beautiful mistakes, I am not a man. It's a passer-by."
Ruan Yu glanced down at the bowl in his hand, and then realized that Xu Huaisong was going back to the United States. Then, is this their last side?
She put away the clean bowls and chopsticks, turned her head and lay down on the sofa, smelling a trace of masculine breath, quickly got up and waved, trying to disperse it.
Finally, she slid her phone and saw that the lingering Xu Huaisong praised her circle of friends today. There was something like "I accepted your flattery". It was a minute ago.
A minute ago?
She was taken aback, returned to the message box, and sent a message: "Lawyer Xu, don't play with your mobile phone when you drive. Right now, domestic arrests are very strict."
Xu Huaisong: "I see."
Nephrite: "Then why are you still playing?"
Xu Huaisong: "Your first message."
Nephrite: "You don't need to go back."
Xu Huaisong really didn't reply.
Ruan Yu scratched his hair.
The feeling of not getting a reply to the message seems to be really not so good...
She turned to go to the bathroom to take a bath, after washing it out, she glanced at the phone again.
There is a red "1" on the WeChat icon.
After clicking on, Xu Huaisong said, "I'm at the hotel."
She clicked the cursor on the typing box, pondered for a long time, and finally only uttered one word: "Okay."
