Chapter 21 Good night

Living in someone’s house, talking bad things about them behind their backs, and the most important thing is that they were overheard… Really, it’s a shame to throw it at home, so embarrassing that I can dig out a manor with my toes.

How can we embarrass and politely turn this over?

Su Yan instantly started brainstorming, and three seconds later, she made a decision: Repay! Must be delinquent! Death can’t admit it!

Silly Baitian’s voice kept coming from the phone, but Su Yan didn’t hear a word. She took a deep breath and said without changing her face, “I have something else to do. I’ll hang up first.” Then she hung up decisively. On the phone, he smiled calmly at Bai Xingfan, “No, how can you say it’s you, you misunderstood.” Then, preemptively, “When did you come out? Why is there no movement at all?”

The implication: eavesdropping is not good.

Bai Xingfan didn’t say much, just replied: “The tea is cold.”

Only then did Su Yan notice that the cup of tea in front of him was no longer smoking, and there were no fog beads on the edge of the cup’s mouth. She came early.

Su Yan was annoyed: why did she forget that Bai Xingfan’s bedroom was next door? At least take a look back before entering the balcony!

She was a little stupid by herself, and the more she thought about it, the more ashamed she became, and she was angry and angry with herself.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, her fair cheeks were getting redder and redder, and she didn’t know whether it was reddened by the golden-red afterglow, or blushed.

From Bai Xingfan’s point of view, her whole body is covered with a hazy light and shadow, which looks bright and moving, like a girl who jumped out of a classical oil painting.

“How has your work been recently?” Seeing that her cheeks were turning red to the point of bleeding, he stopped teasing her and changed the subject on his own initiative.

“It’s alright.” Su Yan was also happy to go down this stage, “Anyway, the manuscript has been handed in, and it’s the company’s business whether you are satisfied or not.”

Bai Xingfan: “Which company did you sign with?”

Su Yan: “Hongying Media.”

Bai Xingfan: “Not bad.”

“That sounds good.” Su Yan sat sideways, leaning on the back of the chair with one hand and putting one hand on her lap, sighed, “Companies have great competition, and other investors also want to make money, so we Books written by small screenwriters rarely have the opportunity to be made into high-cost star dramas, and it is fortunate that they can be made into low-cost online dramas; only those big screenwriters who are already famous or those who have their own capital. , to be eligible for the opportunity of a big production.”

Bai Xingfan asked with great interest, “What is Miss Su’s goal?”

Su Yan thought for a while and said, “The short-term goal is to have a star drama.”

Bai Xingfan: “What about the long-term goal?”

Su Yan: “Everyone is a star.” She explained, “Only a star drama is eligible to be shortlisted for the three awards. Only by winning the award can you have more say. The screenwriter’s status in the crew is very low. Not only do the main actors, directors and producers have the right to ask you to revise the completed script, but even the supporting actors who have entered the group can change the script without authorization. Some more domineering actors even bring their own screenwriters into the group. This is not equivalent to fighting. The editor’s face?”

Bai Xingfan frowned slightly: “Have you ever encountered such a situation?”

Su Yan shook her head: “I’m relatively lucky, I haven’t met such a particularly domineering one, but I’ve met a director who has a lot of troubles, one idea a day, and sometimes I even want to throw the book on his face and let him write it himself. Go, I won’t serve you anymore!”

Bai Xingfan couldn’t help laughing, and his tone was leisurely: “A director who can make a gentle bunny like Miss Su rush is really stupid.”

Su Yan: “…”

Gentle bunny?

Why do I think you’re making fun of me?

Bai Xingfan said again, “When will Miss Su join the group next time?”

Su Yan picked up the phone and looked at the date: “Almost three weeks later.”

Bai Xingfan: “Where?”

Su Yan replied: “The original film and television city in Tang City is a costume drama, but the editor-in-chief is not me. I was only responsible for writing a few episodes, but the editor-in-chief gave me the task of following the group.” She explained in detail, “In the process of filming a TV series, various unexpected situations will always occur, and the script needs to be moved randomly.”

Bai Xingfan listened very seriously: “So it is.”

Su Yan added: “Don’t worry, I will definitely settle my mother before I join the group.”

As long as the May 1st tourist peak period is over, the problem of accommodation will be solved.

Bai Xingfan said, “Just stay at ease. I will go on a business trip tomorrow, and I won’t be back until a month later.”

Su Yan was taken aback: “Why so long? Where are you going on a business trip?”

“America.” Bai Xingfan said, “Go to the branch to investigate for a month.”

It turned out to be so.

Su Yan was still a little embarrassed, thought about it, and said, “Why don’t you do this, I’ll treat you to dinner when you come back.”

Bai Xingfan held his lips and smiled, his expression soft like water: “Okay, I will definitely make the appointment on time.”

Suddenly, a row of swans flew up, and the white wings were covered with golden light by the setting sun. Su Yan suddenly thought of something: “By the way, wait for me.” After speaking, she stood up from the stool and hurried. He ran back to the bedroom, and two minutes later, he returned to the balcony, holding a black wooden box in his hand.

“The wedding gift you gave me.” Su Yan walked to the edge of the balcony on the east side and stood behind the glass fence and said to Bai Xingfan, “It’s better to return the gift to you if the marriage is not completed.”

She has already returned all the money sent by her relatives and friends back intact, except for Bai Xingfan.

Bai Xingfan sat still, the golden sunset light fell on his angular face, and his eyes were black and shining: “Is the wish I made so worthless? Miss Su said she will quit?”

Su Yan was a little embarrassed, and quickly explained: “I didn’t mean that, I…”

“Then put it away.” Bai Xingfan interrupted her without question.

Su Yan was helpless, lowered her head and whispered, “I don’t have any wishes either.”

Bai Xingfan: “Then wait for it to be used.”

Su Yan pursed her lips, raised her eyes and glanced at him, and couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked, “Really anything is possible?”

Bai Xingfan said without hesitation, “Of course.”

Even if you want the stars and the moon, I am willing to pick them for you.

Su Yan didn’t quite believe it: “If I want Xie Yu to reconcile with me, can you do it too?”

Bai Xingfan’s face sank, he got up from the stool, walked into the bedroom without turning his head, and closed the balcony door with force, making a “bang”.

Su Yan: “…”

I am worried that the glass will be shattered.

In fact, she just said it casually and just raised a bar.

She has completely given up on Xie Yu now, not to mention taking the initiative to make Xie Yu reconcile with her, even if Xie Yu knelt in front of her and begged her to reconcile with him, she would not agree.

Sighing, she looked down at the box in her hand again – since Bai Xingfan doesn’t want it, then let’s put it away first.

Early the next morning, Bai Xingfan asked the driver to take him to the airport, and a few hours later, he boarded the flight to New York with his assistant.

When Su Yan woke up, Bai Xingfan was no longer at home, and she didn’t know whether it was because the flight was early or because she was angry with her “wish” yesterday, so he left without saying hello.

However, it’s better not to say hello, otherwise she really doesn’t know what to say.

Since Bai Xingfan left, the permanent residents of this manor have become Su Yan and her mother, which made Su Yan very embarrassed, and once again felt like a dove occupying a magpie’s nest.

In order to move out of this manor as soon as possible, she searches for suitable hotels or short-term rentals online almost every day, but the prices of Dongfu are really not “disappointing” at all. Sources have also become increasingly scarce, and even luxury suites in five-star hotels have become in short supply.

Fortunately, her father did not let her down. One week after the mother and son ran away from home, Comrade Su Jianan finally resolved the problem between his wife and his wife.

That afternoon, Su Yan was sitting cross-legged on the carpet next to the coffee table, holding a computer to write a script, while her mother Liu Xiang was sitting on the sofa holding a tablet to watch the drama. The atmosphere in the living room was quiet and peaceful.

Su Yan’s cell phone suddenly vibrated, and she picked it up from the coffee table to see that it was her father’s call, so she immediately turned to look at her mother, and said loudly, “Mom! Mom! My dad’s phone!”

Liu Xiang quickly took off his earphones: “Quickly connect, turn on the speakerphone!”

“Yeah!” Su Yan also put down her mac notebook, pressed the answer button, and turned on the speakerphone, but didn’t speak.

Su Jian’an’s tone became more and more urgent: “Yan Yan, where is your mother?”

Su Yan and her mother looked at each other: “Didn’t I tell you all about it, my mother said that if you don’t solve the problem, she won’t talk to you.”

Su Jianan said hurriedly: “I solved it! Really solved it!”

Su Yan was overjoyed, but she held back her excitement and asked calmly, “How did you solve it?”

Su Jianan sighed: “Your grandma won’t live in our house anymore, she’ll go to your uncle’s house.”

“Really?” Su Yan was overjoyed and forgot to hide her emotions.

Su Jianan was helpless: “Why did I lie to you? Hey, tell me, your grandma raised you so much, you are not filial at all! You are so happy when she went to your uncle’s house?”

Su Yan argued, “Why am I just happy? I was beaten and scolded by her a lot when I was a child!”

Su Jianan: “Then she’s your grandma too! Look at what you said that day, is it appropriate? Grandma almost fainted from anger.”

Su Yan: “My mother almost fainted from grandma’s anger!”

Su Jianan sighed again: “Okay, okay, let’s not talk too much, where’s your mother?”

Su Yan glanced at her mother and held up the phone.

But Liu Xiang didn’t take the phone, nor was he overjoyed like Su Yan, but asked with a straight face, “Did you take the initiative to send our mother here, or did she want to go?”

Su Yan was stunned for a moment and thought to herself: That’s right, why didn’t I think of this?

But it doesn’t matter, anyway, it’s fine if grandma is gone, otherwise the house will be restless!

Su Jianan slapped sloppy eyes: “Oh, my mother is gone, don’t worry about it.”

Liu Xiang scolded the phone: “You don’t want to care about yourself! Tell me, how much will our family give them a month from today?”

Su Yan was stunned again: Yes, why didn’t you think of this?

Su Jian’an: “Not much, after all, it is for the old lady, and as much as it should be.”

Liu Xiang insisted: “How much is not much? Ten thousand or twenty thousand?”

Su Jianan had no choice but to recruit from the truth: “30,000.”

Su Yan and her mother said in unison, “Thirty thousand?!”

Su Jianan: “Look at the two of you, what’s the fuss about? The 30,000 yuan is for the old lady, not for them.”

Liu Xiang was annoyed: “Do you believe this sentence yourself?”

Su Yan echoed: “That’s right, grandma was partial to them, but didn’t the money end up in the pockets of the uncle and aunt?”

It’s almost 400,000 yuan a year, and it’s not ruled out that aunts and uncles ask their family for money in the name of grandma.

The more I think about it, the more embarrassed I feel.

Of course Su Jianan is not stupid, but other than that, he can’t do anything about it: “What else can I do? Your grandma gave me two choices, either divorce your mother or let her go to your uncle’s house for retirement. .”

Su Yan was shocked: “You actually chose my mother?”

In her impression, her father has always been a filial son who “brings him a lot more than the sky”, but he didn’t expect that this time he didn’t choose his wife instead of his wife.

Su Jianan was annoyed: “Listen to what you said? You and your brother are not reliable. I can’t count on anyone in a few years. Only your mother is qualified to pull out my oxygen tube.”

Su Yan was amused, turned her head to look at her mother, and found that her mother laughed too, but her eyes were red.

“Comrade Su,” Su Yan felt that her dad was amazing this time, “You made me so proud this time!”

Su Jianan was angry and laughed: “No big or small! Quickly call your mother.”

Su Yan stretched out her hand again and blinked her glasses at her mother: “Here, your husband is looking for you.”

Liu Xiang glared at his daughter with a blushing face: “Fuck you!”

Su Yan stuck out her tongue mischievously, gave the phone to her mother, and ran away with her laptop in her arms.

Liu Xiang waited for his daughter to go upstairs before holding the phone to his ear: “Speak.”

Su Jianan smiled ingratiatingly: “Hey, where are you now? I’ll take you home.”

Liu Xiang glanced upstairs again and sighed: “At your future son-in-law’s house.”

Su Jianan was shocked: “What did you say?”

Thirty minutes later, the couple hung up the phone. Thirty minutes later, Su Jianan drove over quickly, but was stopped at the foot of the mountain by the community security. Su Jianan had to call his daughter. After the phone call, Su Yan hurriedly went to the housekeeper again. It was not until the housekeeper communicated with the security guard that Su Jianan was released.

Liu Xiang and Su Yan had already packed their luggage and were waiting for the head of the family to pick them up.

I don’t know how Liu Xiang told Su Jianan on the phone. Anyway, when he came, he didn’t ask his daughter anything. After thanking the two aunties and the housekeeper one by one, he left with their mothers.

But before they left, the skinny aunt brought a Juliet rose, handed it to Liu Xiang, and said with a smile, “Sir knows you like it, so I specially asked me to remove one from the bird cage and give it to Liu Xiang. as a present for you.”

“Oh, really?” Liu Xiang was surprised.

Su Yan was surprised.

Her mother is a flower lover, and the balcony at home is full of her plants.

When she first moved into this manor, her mother was a little overwhelmed by the unfamiliar environment, but she soon fell in love with it, or in other words, the back garden, especially the Juliet rose in the birdcage, and got up on time every morning. Go see Aunt Skinny pruning roses.

Su Yan was afraid that she would be frightened, so she never told her how expensive this kind of rose was.

But what I didn’t expect was that Bai Xingfan actually gave her mother one.

What are you doing? You can’t be so selfish with money! People still can’t afford it!

Su Yan really wanted her mother to reject this gift, but when she saw the surprise on her mother’s face, she couldn’t bear to open her mouth again, and reluctantly watched her mother happily accept the flowers .

The family of three set off to leave.

On the way home, Su Yan was sitting in her dad’s car, staring at the WeChat dialog box displayed on the phone screen for a long time, constantly entering messages in the edit box, deleting them again and again, back and forth. After countless times, he replied, “Thank you.”

It was five o’clock in the morning on the other side of the ocean, and she didn’t expect him to reply the message immediately, so she pressed the screen off after sending it. Who knows that the screen only turned off for three seconds and then turned on again, and a WeChat message popped up one day—

Bai Xingfan: “Thank you for what?”

Su Yan was stunned: “You didn’t sleep?”

Bai Xingfan: “Just finished a meeting with the Chinese headquarters.”

Su Yan thought to herself: I am so lucky.

A little sad, and a little sympathetic.

She originally wanted to tell him that there was no need to be so nice to her in the future, but in this case, she was too embarrassed to say such heartless words to him, so she changed the words to: “Thank you for sending My mother’s flowers, she loves them.”

Bai Xingfan: “No thanks.”

Su Yan sighed lightly and replied, “You should rest early, good night, don’t come back.”

Bai Xingfan replied, “Are you serious about your wish?”

Su Yan: “…”

Why are you still thinking about this?

Bai Xingfan: “It can’t be about Xie Yu.”

Su Yan: “…”

At the beginning of a person, nature is inherently arrogant, although she didn’t mean that, but she still wanted to slap it: “Isn’t it okay for you to say anything?”

Bai Xingfan: “The final interpretation right belongs to the organizer.”

Su Yan: “…”
