Without Yuan Yuyue, the Yuan Mansion family gathering was held as usual, but something was missing.
Weng Huaijing's super topic host Yu Jiahua was whispering happily in the living room. Last weekend, the identity of the masked lady of Professor Weng was exposed, and Super Talk gained a large number of new fans, many of whom came all the way from the United States.
Yuan Yuchun, who had nothing to do, was called to join the chat between Yuan Wangsong and Yuan Yuqiu.
"Chun'er..."
Yuan Wangsong held a cigar in his mouth and asked as gently as possible: "How is the discussion about your movie going?"
"It's okay. The script was officially polished yesterday, and the main actors are almost in talks..."
With a perfunctory smile, Yuan Yuchun replied nonchalantly: "I guess the film will start filming in late October. The investors will assign me a senior assistant director."
After receiving repeated hints from Yuan Wangsong, Yuan Yuqiu said flatteringly: "Sister, you can rest assured and leave it to me to operate the guaranteed issuance!"
"It's really not necessary. I've told you so many times that "Lin Yuan Yu" is just an experimental literary film. I used it to try it out... It's up to two people to decide whether the film will be released in mainstream theaters after it is completed..."
Waving her hand to refuse, Yuan Yuchun thought for a moment and handed the phone to Yuan Yuqiu. She said meaningfully: "I have some news in my hand... You can take a look!"
Taking the phone casually, Yuan Yuqiu looked at the lighted screen, and his originally stretched eyebrows suddenly wrinkled.

Trying to click on the screen to view more information, Yuan Yuqiu found that it was just a screenshot. He squinted his eyes and looked at Yuan Yuchun. He asked tentatively: "Sister, wait a minute, which company are you talking about?"
"Who else could it be? I saw it in the salon yesterday afternoon..."
Dafangfang took out a cigarette from her bag and lit it. Yuan Yuchun blew out the smoke ring and continued slowly: "The parent company of Pearl TV, Shanghai Oriental Culture Media Group Co., Ltd."
"hmg? This is coming to Shanghai, Oriental United Cinemas..."
They are all members of his own family, so Yuan Yuqiu stopped pretending and said in a sinister manner: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Yan Qing is coming in a menacing way?"
After a moment of silence, Yuan Yuchun took two deep puffs of cigarette. She looked at her brother with complex eyes: "Is Yan Qing targeting you? Ah Qiu...can you imagine this world to be a little better?"
Handing the phone back, Yuan Yuqiu rubbed his smooth chin and said with a faint smile: "Sister, this world is far hazy and grayer than you imagine..."
"People's goodwill is conveyed through Yue'er. It's your own business to accept it or not. Anyway, I think Yan Qing is a good person."
After saying a few words, Yuan Yuchun put out the cigarette and glanced at Yuan Yuqiu coldly. She walked towards the living room without looking back.

new day
No. 233, Shibei Hutong, Shichahai, Imperial Capital
…
On the first day of the National Day holiday, in order to respond to Yi Yi's sketch challenge, Yan Qing specially selected three Chinese-language movies with high IMDB scores in the comedy genre. He laughed frequently in the film room.
Yan Qing didn't know whether the movie was good or not, and whether it was funny or not. Today, he didn't have his usual serious attitude towards filming.
"Didi-di-di~di-"
From time to time, three short and one long classic Rocha SMS alerts sounded in the pull-out room, and our Director Yan’s attention was completely focused on his functional machine.
[It’s always others who gossip about us...Gege, why don’t we gossip about them too while no one is around today?]
It was with this starting point that Yan Qing sent the first text message to Weng Huaijing's number.
Weng Huaijing, who knew what he was asking, quickly replied: "Who are you?"
After thinking for a while, Yan Qing followed the strategy given by Lao Zhang and posted another message: [I have some powerful information about them... Well, I am a very proactive person!]
Soon he received a message very characteristic of Professor Weng: [Sit quietly and think about your own mistakes, and don’t talk about others’ faults in small talk.]
Yan Qing was typing very fast, and he continued to pester: [I checked the number carefully and found that I did not send it to the wrong person. Are you Ao Jiao Jing, Professor Ao?]
He waited for a while before replying: [Shao Qing! What else did she say to you!]
Yan Qing felt that he had found the right direction, and he refused to give up: [I heard what we said about gossip, I heard it from Lao Zhang and Li Hanyuan...]
As Zhang Yameng expected, the function machine beeped for a moment: [I also have Shao Qing’s gossip!]
In his mind, he pictured Professor Weng gnashing his teeth, and Yan Qing typed with a smile on his face: "Which of us will come first?"
Professor Weng, who was on vacation, was a bit unethical, so she quickly replied: "Then, let's listen to an old rule first."
"The link is successful, I'm sorry, Lao Zhang."
Yan Qingyun pointed at Rufei: [Trivia, why do almost all of us call Li Hanyuan "Yuan'er", but only Lao Zhang insists on calling her "Hanyuan"?]
Weng Huaijing's thoughts were crystal clear: [She also has an important person named Yuan'er?]
Afraid of touching a minefield, Yan Qing carefully considered her words: "Do you remember the whisper of red roses and white roses that Xiaomiao sent? This is a very sad story. Lao Zhang wanted to tell it several times but failed.
I am too shy to speak out, so I am using my own words to tell everyone...]
[Don’t you have no whispers? I don’t remember.]
Weng Huaijing's words seemed to have the magic power to make Yan Qing see the words as if they were faces, and a beautiful figure who turned his back naturally appeared in front of his eyes.
Yan Qing maintained a super high typing speed: [The subject of Lao Zhang's original text at that time was not actually a man, but Yuan Yuchun. The heroine of the story was called Si Yuan, and she always called her Yuan'er...]
Weng Huaijing guessed more information based on just a few words from Yan Qing: [!Zhang Yameng is actually very good. It turns out that is the reason. No wonder she will join your studio.]
Yan Qing took advantage of the opportunity and asked: [So you were a little worried about her impure intentions at first? Just like I couldn't figure out why Shao Qing was so close to Xiaomiao at first.]
Tsundere: [What else?]
Chu Lianqing: [I thought you were jealous!]
Tsundere: [Haha]
The straight-line distance was only seven kilometers apart, and Yan Qing and Weng Huaijing exchanged text messages for a whole day.
Until the three high-scoring comedy movies were almost finished, Yan Qing didn't laugh a few times because of the plot. Instead, whenever the text message alert sounded, the corners of his mouth would rise faster than he could reach out.
In this way, Yan Qing told Weng Huaijing about the entangled past between Zhang Yameng, Si Yuan and Yuan Yuchun.
And Weng Huaijing also shared with him the detailed story of Shao Qing and Meng Xinyuan.
After finishing the gossip, they also released more content. At this moment, Yan Qing pushed down the slider of his phone again and saw this unread message:
[The only orientation that needs to be cared about in human emotions is the direction of love and sincerity. Lao Zhang is not wrong at all. What is wrong is the stereotypes poisoned by Confucian ethics.]
"Sincerity... Even though I know that buzzing is not what I am referring to, this word is still very irritating... Unfortunately, I cannot be completely sincere to you."
Feeling guilty, Yan Qing wiped the text in the text input box on his mobile phone many times. Finally, he sent a text like this: [The world...for Sister Qing and Lao Zhang...the world is really hard.]
And Weng Huaijing's reply was like a prose poem, decent and appropriate, and also contained some metaphors: "Not every time it rains and the sky clears, there will be a rainbow, just like not every relationship has a beginning and an end."
Yan Qing felt that he was offended, so he blushed and said shamelessly: "So we must cherish the people in front of us..."
This time Weng Huaijing's reply made Yan Qing a little confused: "Do you... know the flower language of kapok?"
Yan Qing confessed frankly: [I don’t know.]
Weng Huaijing's reply had a hint of helplessness: [It's the last five words you just said.]
"Well, it turns out that kapok has another meaning besides hibiscus. It is indeed "I". This is probably why Xiao Miao loves this name. Does Bing Bing think I'm trying to trick Miao Miao?"
While his thoughts were ups and downs, Yan Qing typed at the speed of light, and he immediately explained: [Ah? I really didn't expect this level, I only noticed the hibiscus flower.]
The reply he received immediately made him feel relieved: [Sister Qing and she both support the name of Kapok Pictures, haven't you ever thought about why? This is very unlike you, but it is also very much like you.]
"Unlike me, the "I" who likes metaphors will not miss such details. But like me, I know clearly that I have always regarded Miao Miao as a relative in my heart, and I have always said everything directly.
, I won’t play that kind of twists and turns.”
As if he had a mental connection, Yan Qing quickly figured out the meaning of Weng Huaijing's words.
He simply told Weng Huaijing about Miao Miao's affairs and Lao Zhang's views through several long short messages.
Weng Huaijing didn't mean to refuse: [Lao Zhang's analysis makes sense...it's true that I'm not good at communicating with people, but Xiaomiao is actually a cute and smart girl.]
Yan Qing thought about the previous deadlocks between Weng Huaijing and Miao Miao, and suddenly he decided to give up: [Actually, I originally planned to wait for Xiaomiao to come back and then have a good chat with her.]
Weng Huaijing's reply confused and surprised Yan Qing: [The 21-year-old me is not much different from her now, so I'll do it.]
When he didn't know what to reply, Yan Qing's cell phone rang again.
Not surprisingly, it was a text message from Weng Huaijing: [Have you decided what song to write for Xiao Meow?]
Yan Qing described the song he had prepared to Weng Huaijing in detail through text.
The new message seems to have profound meaning and a bit of ridicule: [It is quite suitable for her. Li Wei's "Ambiguous", coupled with this song, I found that you now understand the feelings of girls very well.]
Yan Qing was a little confused when he saw the latest unread messages, so he could only use the magical skill of changing the topic: [How about we also write a song for Sister Qing and Lao Zhang.]
Weng Huaijing did not continue to dwell on the previous topic, but directly considered the theme of the song: "Is it painful to write about the world?"
Yan Qing probably had some direction in his mind, and he made some modifications to Weng Huaijing's reply: "Sorrows and joys in the world, I like that sentence very much: Not every time it rains and the sky clears, there will be a rainbow, just like not
Every relationship has a beginning and an end.]
Weng Huaijing replied worriedly: [Self-promotion? But wouldn’t such words be too pessimistic?]
Yan Qing sent two messages in succession:
[So we will explore the unique shining points of some characters. For example, Lao Zhang’s smile is really deceiving. No one knows that she hides so many secrets in her heart!]
[Shao Qing is usually such a free and easy woman, I never thought she would shed tears secretly...]
Weng Huaijing's replies came one after another, and Yan Qing could clearly capture her shallow and beautiful smile from her words:
[Zhang Yameng’s smile is beautiful and innocent. I felt that way at first sight: Three Hundred Poems, in one word, thinking innocently.]
[With Sister Qing by your side, there will definitely be excitement. Tears are a very luxurious thing for her... She really deserves to be treasured, but it's a pity that she fell in love with the wrong person when she was young...]
After coughing a few times in embarrassment, Yan Qing found the most suitable point to cut in: [Lao Zhang’s innocent face does not mean that she is ignorant. For Sister Qing, falling in love with the wrong person will inevitably lead to pain.]
Professor Weng’s reply was filled with satisfaction and a bit of entanglement: [It really makes the world miserable...]
Yan Qingxin pinched it: [Add some messages, I hope all their dreams will come true in the future, and every tear will be pityed by people.]
As the two texted back and forth, they gradually pieced together a whole poem.
Yan Qing accidentally typed the wrong title in his excitement: [Buzz, buzz, wait a minute, I'll go to the practice room to find the melody.]
[What? Um...]
Without even noticing this, Yan Qing took advantage of the opportunity and went straight to the practice room on the second floor. After several auditions, he directly dialed Weng Huaijing's phone number.
The phone rang many times before it was answered.
Professor Weng's voice was a little cold: "Why did you call me? I'm making dinner..."
"What to do, salad?"
Yan Qingfu was in his heart, he pretended to be pitiful and said: "I'm so envious, I don't even have dinner."
"sandwich…"
Weng Huaijing on the phone said rudely: "Don't you know how to order takeout by yourself?"
Yan Qing said shamelessly: "I don't have a smartphone..."
"What does that have to do with me..."
Professor Weng said angrily: "Don't be so shameless and talk about business."
In front of the upright piano, Yan Qing adjusted his sitting posture: "The demo is ready, I will sing it to you."
Weng Huaijing was slightly surprised: "So fast."
Yan Qing explained: "I will put the phone away for a while, then turn on the recorder. After I finish it, I will try to send it to you using Xiaomiao's email address."
Without thinking much, Weng Huaijing replied calmly: "Okay."
Yan Qing attached his cell phone to the speaker panel of the upright piano, turned on the recorder, and began his interpretation of "Human World".
…
"Heaven and Earth"
If it's really worth praising
It's also because of you
That’s when it became noisy”
"This sentence is singing about Sister Qing."
…
"The sky is big and the earth is big
The world is better than you
hazy in imagination
"This sentence probably refers to Lao Zhang. She is used to measuring everything with precise data at work, and her attitude towards life may be very simple and direct."
…
"I can't bear to deceive you anymore
I hope you understand
I hope you will understand
Where to go?"
…
Weng Huaijing instinctively interpreted the meaning of Yan Qing's lyrics line by line, but he failed to convey the meaning again: "Who does he want to sing this line to... deceive, little meow?"
After thinking about it for a while and waiting for Yan Qing to finish singing the demo, Weng Huaijing suddenly said to him: "It's better to just use the network disk in my email address."
…
After hanging up the phone, Yan Qing used the email address provided by Weng Huaijing to upload the music score and lyrics along with the demo recording file to the network disk. After doing this, he was about to go downstairs, and his phone buzzed.
A text message came to me: [I ordered a takeaway for you and will pick it up at the front door in twenty minutes.]
Yan Qing was very excited. Although the Mapo Tofu delivered from takeaway was super spicy and numb, he was extremely happy eating it.
