Nepotism

"Sorry, I..." The familiar voice remembered.

Qi Lan unconsciously changed her posture to make the person in her arms more comfortable, and then asked without waiting for the other party to finish speaking: "Did you knock somewhere?"

Ning Xuan broke free from Qi Lan's arms, and stood aside by herself, like a child who did something wrong and was just hit by someone.

She hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything, but Qi Lan could see Ning Xuan's red ears.

Ning Xuan is thin and small, except for those big eyes, other facial features are small and delicate, Qi Lan couldn't help touching Ning Xuan's blushing ears, Ning Xuan's body temperature ran down Qi Lan's fingertips It was heard that Qi Lan couldn't put it down because of the soft and boneless touch.

Ning Xuan's ear bones are very soft, Qi Lan thought, such a person must have a good temper.

She is not as sharp-edged as herself, even if she squeezes hard, she will not change the shape easily despite the pain.

Why did you come to my place...

Qi Lan originally wanted to ask this question.

As a result, before the words came out, there was a "bang" outside, and a thunder came from the sky, giving people the illusion that the whole room was vibrating.

Qi Lan was taken aback, and managed to slow down, and saw that Ning Xuan in front of her was already pale, covering her ears.

Qi Lan thinks that she has seen Ning Xuan's appearance different from others, but this is the first time Qi Lan has seen Ning Xuan's frightened appearance, thinking that the other party unexpectedly came to her at night, Qi Lan does not think it is strange up.

Ning Xuan was probably afraid of such a thunderstorm.

Qi Lan didn't think it was funny, she pulled the man back from her front with a serious face, hugged her again, and firmly closed the door that was originally concealed.

As if coordinating with Qi Lan's movements, the thunder outside kept rumbling, and Qi Lan could feel the person in his arms trembling slightly.

Qi Lan patted Ning Xuan's back lightly, as if comforting a baby.

"Okay, okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."

The power of words seems to be limited, and Ning Xuan did not feel relieved by Qi Lan's few actions and words, but she was very dependent on Qi Lan's embrace. The presence of a sense of security.

The two stood against the wall like this, and the entire film and television base was shrouded in lightning and thunder.

It wasn't until the thunderstorm passed and the rain outside gradually subsided that Ning Xuan showed her face from Qi Lan's arms.

After Qi Lan felt the movement of the person in his arms, he slowly loosened his arms around the other person.

Time passed quickly, and it seemed to pass very slowly again. Qi Lan felt that they hugged for a long time, but time seemed to be fleeting, and her embrace was empty. This feeling made Qi Lan feel a little bit lost.

The two stood facing each other, feeling a little awkward with each other.

Ning Xuan didn't know what she wanted to say to Qi Lan, and Qi Lan didn't know what to ask and what not to ask.

Ning Xuan opened her mouth slightly, but she only blurted out the word thank you.

She turned around and walked to the door, turned the handle slightly, Qi Lan was watching her from behind her, and did not stop Ning Xuan from leaving.

However, the weather is not beautiful, as if it was the final end to the thunderstorm just now, another thunderstorm exploded in the ear, Ning Xuan instinctively let go of the hand holding the doorknob, and retracted Qi Lan's hand again. arms.

Qi Lan looked outside, and slightly bent the corners of her mouth where Ning Xuan couldn't notice.

She had to thank the thunder, because based on her understanding of Ning Xuan, she might not be able to leave tonight.

Just as Qi Lan expected, Ning Xuan did not leave that night after all.

After a few days of being alone, the two of them returned to the same roof.

In the morning after the rain, Qi Lan got up early and opened the window to get some fresh air. Surprisingly, Ning Xuan, who had always been unable to wake up, also woke up early today with Qi Lan, and the two stood by the window to greet her. Do stretching exercises with the rising sun.

"Morning." Qi Lan smiled at Ning Xuan sideways.

"Morning." Ning Xuan also responded with a smile.

Together they went downstairs to have breakfast, ready for a new day at work.

Yu Tang, who was already waiting in the restaurant, was a little surprised to see the two walking down talking and laughing.

She barely swallowed the food in her mouth and waved towards them.

Qi Lan and Ning Xuan took the plates and walked towards Yu Tang.

"It's rare, it's a coincidence that the two of you actually met together." Yu Tang laughed.

Of course, they slept together last night, how could they not bump into each other in the morning, Qi Lan thought.

She walked to the dining table first, and pulled away the chair beside her. Ning Xuan sat down beside Qi Lan generously, and the two began to eat breakfast.

Qi Lan put some more vegetables on the plate. She knew that Ning Xuan didn't eat much, and sometimes staying up late to catch up on manuscripts would even turn black and white, so she hoped that Ning Xuan could have a more nutritious breakfast. She looked at Ning Xuan She simply picked up a few pieces of cake for breakfast, Qi Lan shook her head, cut her own fried egg in half, put some vegetables in the past, and put them on Ning Xuan's plate, and in return, Ning Xuan's small cake was also eaten. Qi Lan snatched a piece.

Ning Xuan curled her lips, letting Qi Lan do whatever she wanted, without saying anything.

The two smiled at each other tacitly and started to move.

But Yu Tang watched from the side, and his senses were a little subtle.

The milk she just picked up and handed to her mouth almost spilled on her body, but fortunately she avoided it in time with quick eyesight and quick hands.

The movement on Yu Tang's side naturally alarmed the two people at the opposite table.

Ning Xuan took something and came over to help Yu Tang wipe the milk stains on the table.

Qi Lan seemed to be watching a good show, while eating, she looked at Yu Tang and laughed and said, "Are you a child, so careless, it seems that I will find you a little scarf to wear, you know, it's the baby The one you wear, the kind that hangs on your chest."

Probably because the verbal squeeze was not enough, Qi Lan put down the knife and fork in his hand, and began to make gestures.

Ning Xuan snickered while helping

On the other hand, Yu Tang glared at Qi Lan angrily, "Is Ning Xuan a child? I think you are going to be fed to her. I said that you are also a good friend. You treat her as well as me. How could there be so much difference?"

Well, the retribution came too fast, and Qi Lan's hand stopped in the air in an instant.

Qi Lan was stabbed in the chest unintentionally by Yu Tang, and she froze in a distant place.

Is it that obvious?

Qi Lan almost asked this question directly.

Fortunately, Ning Xuan took over the conversation in time, which avoided Qi Lan's embarrassment.

"Because I'm cute." Ning Xuan made a cute expression of holding her face.

Yu Tang was also very cooperative with her, holding his heart and shouting: "Okay, okay, you won."

When Ning Xuan helped Yu Tang clean up the mess and returned to Qi Lan, she was still a little dazed.

Ning Xuan shook her hand in front of Qi Lan, "I'm back to my senses."

Only then did Qi Lan come to her senses, "Don't pay attention to her, eat well."

Ning Xuan seemed to be in a good mood today. She nodded and stuffed the fried egg that Qi Lan had cut in half into her mouth.

The busy shooting schedule has started, and Qi Lan and Yu Tang are almost in a row these days. The reason is well known.

But the troublemaker didn't care about all this at all. Not only did he not show up according to the schedule, but the cast and crew waited for him for a long time.

People have tempers. Even though you have a backing, people dare not offend you, but when people's anger accumulates to a certain stage, it is completely impossible to rationally analyze the pros and cons of gains and losses.

Director Song is now at such a critical point, and He Dong's indifferent attitude is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Director Song knew that many actors looked down on idol dramas, so he naturally didn't think highly of him, a director who is famous for his idol dramas. He didn't force everyone to respect him, but he just hoped that everyone could at least show a professional attitude.

In fact, this is because Director Song is too self-effacing. Without certain experience and level, it is impossible for China Film to hand over to him an idol drama that he invested heavily in this year. Red newcomers are very good at this aspect, plus Song Dao's unique sense of camera and rhythm, he has a very good reputation in the industry.

But even such a self-effacing and kind-hearted Director Song could no longer bear He Dong's high profile.

He stopped all the shooting in the studio when He Dong went out to answer the phone again.

"Everyone has worked hard these days, but I, the director, didn't do a good job." Director Song said loudly to everyone in the audience.

Qi Lan is a half-hearted actor with no experience, so she was often scolded on the set, but similarly, Director Song also gave Qi Lan the most patient guidance, and helped her think of many crooked ways to make up for her lack of experience. I never thought that I would develop in the direction of an actor in the future, but Qi Lan appreciates it in her heart. Seeing that Director Song, who is usually energetic and vigorous, is now showing fatigue, Qi Lan feels a little sorry.

She felt a fire in her heart and wanted to say something, but Yu Tang had already rushed ahead of her.

"Director Song, you are a very good director."

"Yes, Director Song."

"Director Song has worked hard."

"You've done a good job."

After Yu Tang's voice, comforting voices on the set suddenly came and went.

Director Song nodded towards the surroundings, "So I decided to give everyone and myself a half-day off today."

As soon as this remark came out, there were cheers.

Ever since He Dong came back from City S and He Dong asked to adjust the schedule, everyone hadn't rested much. Naturally, they cheered when they heard the news suddenly.

But some people have to think carefully.

He Dong's manager saw the out-of-control scene in front of them, and hurriedly came to Director Song. For them, they naturally hoped to get the most weight in the limited time, and then they would retire from the crew and switch directly. go to the next one.

But what's the situation now?

He Dong went out to answer a phone call, and the set was in the rhythm of quitting.

This made He Dong's team, which has been regarded as the core these days and the entire crew has served, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
