Chapter 129: Chapter 129: It’s a Wrap
Ning Xiner rushed to Gu Group, eager to see Gu Chen, but learned that Gu Chen had already gone abroad, without leaving an exact address.
He was disappointed in her…
He would no longer follow her, calling her “sister” with each sweet breath.
Ning Xiner’s eyes moistened, as if she had lost something important, and she returned home in a daze.
Time swiftly moved forward three years. Having let go of her grudges, Ning Xiner calmly attended the engagement ceremony of the leading man and woman. After three rounds of toasts, when the crowd had dispersed, she stood alone in front of the chapel, looking up at the devout cross on the roof, and an involuntary voice from the depths of her heart burst out, “Gu Chen, where exactly are you?”
“Right behind you, sister.”
The clear and bright voice of a young man came from behind, carrying a familiar trace of irreverence.
Ning Xiner thought she was hallucinating and slowly turned around, only to see the youth with picturesque eyebrows and eyes.
He was holding a skateboard, his white shirt gently lifted by the breeze, his black shattered hair slightly messy, and a charming smile lingering at the corner of his mouth; he was handsome and mischievous, just as the young man she had first met.
I love you, so I can walk ninety-nine steps towards you, but if you’re not willing to take even that last step…
Then, I am willing to wait for you to cross that step’s distance.
With Director Li Jiahua’s shout, the set fell into a dead silence.
“That’s a wrap, that’s a wrap, congratulations to Young President Gu on wrapping up!”
Ye Xian was also somewhat happy, but saw the crew members one by one with their heads down, while soft sobs spread sporadically through the crowd.
“Wrapping up the shoot is a good thing, why are you crying?”
“What kind of immortal love is this?”
“So touching, wuu wuu wuu…”
“Damn, my tears are cheap.”
“It’s all because you acted so well, everyone can’t bear to part.” Li Jiahua came over and patted her, “Ye Xian, you’ve wrapped up today, you should treat the crew at Sweeten Taste tonight, I heard they just got some lobsters, really tasty!”
“I’m fine with treating, I just can’t go, lately I can’t eat heavily flavored foods like lobsters.”
“Why? I see you usually eat a lot of heavily flavored foods, you never seem to gain weight.”
“It’s not a matter of being fat or not.” Ye Xian leaned in and murmured into his ear.
Upon hearing this, Li Jiahua was suddenly exhilarated, “Not bad, kid! Silently, you’ve managed to secure our drama’s advertising investor!”
Ye Xian scratched his head and smiled, “Nothing is certain yet, I’m just preparing ahead.”
“Opportunities are always for those who are prepared, and you’re so outstanding, you’ll definitely get it, I’ll let you off for tonight’s lobster feast, take good care of your teeth.”
Ye Xian was talking with Li Jiahua when a crying woman’s voice cut in.
Turning his face, Ye Xian saw Jiang Xin with red-rimmed eyes. Surprised, he hadn’t even had time to ask her what was wrong before she hugged him tightly.
Ye Xian: “… Xiao Xin, what’s wrong with you?”
Ye Xian kept his composure on the surface, but inside, he was panicking.
In public, with a man and a woman hugging, if the unscrupulous paparazzi caught this and posted it online, the CP fans wouldn’t know how to spin it. Previously, he could say it was normal interaction between characters during the filming, but now that everything had wrapped up, there was no excuse.
“I can’t bear to part with Gu Chen, and even more… I can’t bear to part with you.”
Jiang Xin cried in his arms, her feelings revealed nakedly through the wrap-up scene, allowing anyone to see that she liked Ye Xian.
