The sun had already set when the two of them came out of the hidden back door of the cafe. Cheng Xiao was carrying a bag of chestnut pumpkin cheesecake in his left hand. He hugged the arm of the person next to him with his right hand, leaning on the forest with all his weight.
On Qingyuan's face, besides happiness, there is sweetness.渟
"Where do we go next?"
"It's early six o'clock now. Are you going to have dinner?"
"Have you just finished your afternoon tea and are you going to start dinner?"
Cheng Xiao looked up at Lin Qingyuan in surprise, and saw that he was looking at him with a smile, so he buried his head again, laughed and said softly: "Although I was a little fat before because I ate too much, but this time
It doesn’t mean that I have two stomachs, one for dinner and one for dessert, although this is indeed my dream..."
"Actually, you didn't eat much, did you? It seems that you only ordered four cakes in total. Then I finished one piece and you finished the other three?" Lin Qingyuan recalled that today's afternoon tea time was quite leisurely and comfortable.
They just listened to soothing light music, chatted and were alone in the stylish cafe.
Although it's not polite to miss others when you are with Xiao Xiao, she is indeed different from others.渟
Because she was the only one who really ate it and shared what she thought was delicious with him, while the others took photos and let him eliminate high-calorie foods alone.
I can't say who is right or wrong, but perhaps because of the difficult experience of spending more than twenty days together three years ago, he does prefer this feeling of sharing together.
It's just... quite relaxing? Well, that's probably the case.
He is already under a lot of pressure at work, in front of the camera, and amid people's comments, so he needs to release it during his break.
Of course, Lin Qingyuan will not be as crazy as the Grand Slam Best Actor Yoo Ah-in next door. At most, he will look for the most conventional ways within the legal scope.
His sexual threshold is very high, but it is far from reaching the ridiculously high level of Yoo Ah In, which is so abnormal and scary.
"To be precise, I ate 2.5 yuan, and then you probably ate 1.5 yuan." Cheng Xiao tried hard to recall the desserts and drinks they had together in the afternoon, and then asked a rambling question, "By the way, you
Which one do you think is better, chocolate soft silk layer cake or chestnut pumpkin cheesecake? You’ve tried them both.”渟
"Then, which one do you think is better, the mocha or the latte in that store just now? We have tasted each other's coffee, so we should all have feelings." Lin Qingyuan asked.
"You answer my question first, I asked it first!" Cheng Xiao tightened his arms slightly.
"Okay." Lin Qingyuan glanced down at the dessert in Cheng Xiao's hand and said with a smile, "But I think you have already given the answer."
"This is my choice, not yours."
"Your choice is my choice." Lin Qingyuan said seriously: "I don't know much about desserts, so I can only like the same thing as you."
Cheng Xiao lowered her head, only to feel that the familiar sweetness she had tasted this afternoon was lingering in her heart again. She raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Is this the so-called Handan toddler?"
"Hmm... maybe that's what it means..." Lin Qingyuan vaguely felt that this idiom was not used in this way.
Xiao Xiao only used the literal meaning of this word, completely losing the original warning meaning of this idiom, but it is much better than reaching out to catch the turtle.
"In that case, then I also like latte." Cheng Xiao answered the question Lin Qingyuan asked before.
"But didn't you order mocha?"
Cheng Xiao looked up at Lin Qingyuan again, "Just a random comment, because I don't know much about coffee, so I can only like the same thing as you."
Lin Qingyuan burst into laughter. If this is the case, then you should have followed me and ordered a latte from the beginning.
"I think generally only primary school students like to imitate others. Are you a primary school student?"
"Isn't it good to be a cute primary school student? And no one stipulates that there can only be one HD." Cheng Xiao blinked his big eyes, with a natural innocence in his eyes.
Lin Qingyuan was startled for a moment, then asked with a smile: "So HD, where are we going next?"
"I don't know." Cheng Xiao shook his head.
"How about I take you for a drive?" Lin Qingyuan pointed in the direction of the parking lot, "The McLaren I picked up last year is the first time I have driven it out this year."
...
On the main road of Beijing's Fourth Ring Road, the translucent black McLaren 720S was running slowly at a speed of 70km/h like a black beast with its hands and feet restrained.
It was now seven o'clock in the evening, and the sun had already set. Cheng Xiao looked overhead through the busy traffic and high-rise buildings around him. The night sky was dark and unclear.
It is indeed difficult to see beautiful stars in Beijing.渟
The car music was playing Cheng Xiao's playlist. The song that was playing in the car was "Nonsns" by Sabrina Carpntr. The lyrics were a bit explicit...
Lin Qingyuan has never heard of this song, but it doesn't matter whether he has or not, because he is seriously experiencing the feeling of driving a McLaren 720S around the city.
Cheng Xiao, on the other hand, nodded his head gently to the rhythm of the music, then took out his mobile phone and started browsing the news.
# Thimble on Japanese TV#
#鲁汉李佳heng is calling for Huang Zitao’s new song#
# MouGirl Liu Haocun’s first seal#
#林清元Unlock a new golf experience#渟
"Didn't you give Huang Zitao a call when his new song was released? I saw that only the names of Lu Han and Li Jiaheng were mentioned in the hot search." She asked while looking at the screen of her mobile phone.
"The three of them were in a group before, and they had a lot of trouble, so this title will have a better effect on attracting traffic from passers-by and netizens." Lin Qingyuan replied.
"There is also Liu Haocun's first seal. I feel like she is going to be praised recently. First she was the opening performer of the Golden Rooster, and then she and Zhou Qiuyu stood next to you as a pseudo-C position. Now she has started to brush the seals again. In addition,
"Little Red Flower" starring you will be released at the end of the year. I feel that her film and fashion will take off simultaneously." Cheng Xiao frowned.
Although she behaved extremely harmlessly in front of Lin Qingyuan, she had long been accustomed to using the greatest malice to speculate on her colleagues in the circle who were competing with her.
After all, this is a cruel entertainment industry, not a friendship circle where everyone is good to each other. As long as there is competition for resources, it will be difficult to ensure that the "friends" who love each other in front of the camera will not suddenly stab you in the back.
"She swiped the cover? Which magazine? She shouldn't have been in the top five just after her debut, right?" Lin Qingyuan asked.
""Marie Marie NOW"."
"That's just so so. "Marie Marie NOW" is Marie Claire's new magazine released this year, and its content is limited."
However, I was able to appear on Marie Claire NOW just a few days after my debut, and the material I released was filmed more than half a month in advance, so the backstage background is a bit hard.
"Then your golf hot search should be fine. Didn't I say I would post on Weibo this morning? Why did you follow up with a post?" Cheng Xiao asked worriedly.
Cheng Xiao: [The road to advancement for golf beginners]
The picture is Lin Qingyuan’s perfect swing shot for her.
Lin Qingyuan: [Looking for childhood memories]
The picture is his bag of golf clubs.渟
The CPs of the first-generation domestic entertainment reality show, who had previously been rumored to have scandals, posted Weibo posts with the same content within less than two hours of each other. Netizens with great savvy found out that both of them are currently in the capital. According to Cheng Xiaona
The background of the photo shows that the location where the photo was taken is the CBD International Golf Course.
Although it was a weekday morning, there were very few people on the golf course at that time, and the coach had signed a confidentiality agreement issued by the club, but someone still recognized Lin Qingyuan and posted a photo of them playing golf online. Soon
This triggered a new round of heated discussions on the Internet.
However, unlike the time at the beginning of the year when the whole country was madly torturing Lin Qingyuan for stepping on several boats, the revelations this time actually attracted a large number of people to watch the lively discussion.
Although many people are still attacking Lin Qingyuan using the black nickname "Zhuazhao", the hostility on the Internet is obviously much less than the situation at that time when everyone was condemning him.
Perhaps this is the cognitive gap between an artist who has developed his popularity to the extreme and a national actor who has broken away from the circle and is widely recognized by the public...
The former is more concerned about his popularity and performance in various aspects, while the latter is more concerned about his works, his professional abilities and his content output to society.
Over the past six months, Lin Qingyuan has initially established an image in the minds of many people as the King of Asia who exports overseas culture.涸
Therefore, although passers-by and netizens will still pay attention to his personal life as before, they will never criticize Ruiping as maliciously as before.
Just kidding, this is a key figure in external output.
Don’t you think there are so many fans in Neon South Korea? Even under his influence, do these fans have a faint urge to become spiritual Chinese?
Moreover, when I interview local young people in the neon streets of South Korea and ask them who is the most famous person in China, they will name Lin Qingyuan 10 times out of 10.
They are quite happy to see this phenomenon.
Although national strength has improved, if national self-confidence is to be improved, it still needs to be recognized by others.
This is also the main reason why so many foreign husbands can make a lot of money by boasting about China.渟
Interestingly, Lin Qingyuan is doing such a thing.
It's just that unlike the Raffs, he prefers to use practical actions to bring the public what they need to see and get, rather than verbally speaking.
The artist itself is a profession that entertains the public. What Lin Qingyuan is doing now is just entertaining the public at the highest level, with the most strategic value and social significance.
"There's no reason, just post it if you want." Lin Qingyuan fiddled with the steering wheel. The four-ring road is 65 kilometers long and can't be completed in an hour. It's perfect for driving and chatting.
"Is it really okay?" Cheng Xiao was still a little worried, "What you are doing now has never been done before, at least not in the traffic era."
"Indeed, no, but correspondingly, no one has achieved what I have achieved before." Lin Qingyuan smiled easily, "I have to say that the editor-in-chief of Zhizu understands me very well. You can't create history by following the rules."
When he lowered the high demands he had set on himself and relieved the pressure and burden he had always felt in his heart, he felt that the whole person and the world became a lot more excited.
It was as if he got off the original high-speed train and boarded the green train full of the flavor of the times on the next platform and headed towards the unknown place ahead.
Although the interior decoration and train speed have dropped significantly, and it will take longer to get to the next station, what does it matter?
At least he now has time to appreciate the beautiful scenery along the way. For him, both the scenery outside the car and the scenery inside the car are a new experience.
"The shackles I am now subject to are much less than those before last year. As long as I do not blatantly provoke social order and moral norms, under normal circumstances, I will be fine."
"Also, I now find that I used to be too straightforward. After this job is over, it will be the next job. After this announcement is filmed, it will be the next announcement. I work purely for the sake of popularity and work for the sake of work. Many times I finish one
After the activity, I didn’t even know what I had just done..."
"Although I can't change the existing rules and can only follow the softest and smoothest way of doing things and join in with them, when I have the conditions and ability, why don't I try to do something...well...what they did before
No one has done it or dare not do it. What might seem to them like something deviant?”
"Lay's new song describes himself as a lotus that is free from mud. I'm not as shameless as him, so how about the black lotus that is stained with mud and joins in the filth? It sounds pretty cool, and it sounds much better than the white lotus."
Cheng Xiao quietly stared at Lin Qingyuan, who was obviously talking a lot more than usual, with a soft and delicate light shining in his eyes, and a gentle smile from the heart on his lips.
When they met, one was 18 and the other was 19. They were still in their youth, and their personalities were not complete, and there were still many possibilities for the future.
After getting along with each other for nearly four years, she found that Lin Qingyuan had been changing. Although she had not personally experienced the exact same situation and situation as Lin Qingyuan, she could not understand some of the changes, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed that
They are all positive changes...at least they are not developing in a bad direction.
Therefore, should we say that he is truly the King Lin who is unprecedented, unprecedented, and unique among fans?
Thinking about it this way, Heilian and him are a good match.
However, compared to the Hei Lian who was stained with mud and complicit with them, she felt that the Hei Lian who was untainted by the mud might be more in line with the Lin Qingyuan of the past and present.
He himself is black, so naturally he will not be stained with blackness that does not belong to him by the black mud in the pond.
"Hey, you weren't playing with your phone just now and didn't listen to me..." Lin Qingyuan talked to himself for a long time without waiting for Cheng Xiao next to him to talk and reply.
He turned to look at the co-pilot in confusion, but as soon as he saw Cheng Xiao's gentle smiling face, a white hand pinched his face and pushed him back to his original position.
Immediately afterwards, the girl couldn't hide her smile and sounded a cheerful reminder: "Look at the road while driving, don't look at me! I don't want you to be caught by the traffic police for driving illegally, causing us to make headlines in such a negative way."
Lin Qingyuan was somewhat inexplicably speechless, "The co-pilot's duty is to help observe the road conditions."
Cheng Xiao looked at Lin Qingyuan's beautiful profile and said, "Well, you are right, I agree very much."
"Then what were you doing just now and now?"
"Looking at the road ahead of me!"
...
Around nine o'clock, Cheng Xiao got hungry.
So Lin Qingyuan drove straight to an old community where the elderly were the main residents, then got out of the car and took her hand to a deep alley.
Both of them are familiar with this place.
But for Lin Qingyuan, this place is a memory of childhood playfulness; while for Cheng Xiao, this place is a beautiful encounter worth cherishing memories.
"If I weren't worried about disturbing the peaceful life of the old people and grandmothers here, I would really like to shoot a vlog here and post it online to commemorate my childhood."
"It is recommended not to do this, because your fans will definitely trample this place to pieces." Cheng Xiao walked cheerfully, looking for Lin Qingyuan's shadow on the stone road.
Noticing Cheng Xiao's childish behavior, Lin Qingyuan thought about it and thought she was childlike and cute, "So I just thought about it."
The two of them soon arrived at their destination.
Lin Qingyuan used the light in the store to straighten his hair on the phone screen, and then strode in holding hands with Cheng Xiao, who was also straightening his hair.
Fortunately, there are still familiar people and familiar things.
"Grandpa Su, it's winter, why don't you close the shop so late?" Lin Qingyuan smiled from the bottom of his heart, "Yo! I'm knitting a sweater!"
"Hey! Xiao Lin, why are you here!" Grandpa Su's tone of voice was almost exactly the same as Lin Qingyuan's. In fact, this was exactly the effect Lin Qingyuan deliberately imitated.
Grandpa Su quickly put down the needlework and semi-finished sweater in his hand, stood up in surprise and walked quickly over to greet Lin Qingyuan and the man next to him... He frowned and thought for a while, then showed a happy but embarrassed smile, "
Girl, I think I’ve seen you before, but I can’t remember your name for a while..."
"Grandpa Su, my name is Xiao Cheng. Lin Qingyuan and I came to your place three years ago. The braised pork you cooked is particularly delicious!" Cheng Xiao tried his best to blend in with the Beijing dialect.
"We haven't eaten yet tonight, and she really wants to eat the braised pork you made, so she just came over to see you." Lin Qingyuan took over the topic.
"Okay! Then you guys will help me tonight to see if my craftsmanship has deteriorated in the past three years!" Grandpa Su said with a smile on his gorge-filled face.
"You will only make progress and never regress." Lin Qing wanted to help Grandpa Su, but he stopped him.
Grandpa Su said that they were rare guests and needed to be well entertained. Lin Qingyuan had no choice but to take Cheng Xiao to the table closest to him and sit down for dinner.
"Xiao Lin, you have graduated now, how are you? Is your work going well?" Grandpa Su asked.
"It went well. It can be considered a small achievement now." Lin Qingyuan replied with a smile. In fact, it was not very smooth, otherwise he would have achieved a grand slam now.
"Have you become successful?" Grandpa Su turned around.
"Compared with three years ago..." Lin Qingyuan nodded, "I think I am getting ahead now."
Grandpa Su smiled with satisfaction, but still gave a few warnings out of habit: "It doesn't count if you think you are getting ahead. You have to let others recognize you, and then you can really get ahead. I know times have changed, and young people now
The pace of life is very fast and there is a lot of pressure on you. Xiaolin, you are also under a lot of pressure."
"That's right. The work pressure in the past few years was really high, but now the pressure is much less." After Lin Qingyuan finished speaking, he turned and looked at Cheng Xiao, and both of them laughed in unison.
"It's a good thing to have less pressure, but why has it become less?" Grandpa Su started chatting, curiously absorbing and accepting everything about modern young people.
"Because I figured out something."
Grandpa Su nodded, "It's a good thing to learn to think at your age. You should always reflect and examine yourself. When I was young, I wasn't as quick-thinking as you."
Lin Qingyuan nodded seriously.
"By the way, didn't you say you were an actor in a TV series before? How are you doing now? Have you produced any good works that are recognized by the audience and society?"
"Um..." Lin Qingyuan thought about it briefly. Although he has made extraordinary achievements in movies, in TV dramas he seems to be just a modern idol that caters to young people. He is far from being out of the industry in the true sense.
So I felt a little embarrassed at this moment, so I could only say in an uncertain tone: "There are still a few of them..."
"You are obviously not very confident! It seems that you have to work harder in the future and continue to work hard!"
"Hey, yes!" Lin Qingyuan nodded helplessly.
Cheng Xiao covered his mouth and snickered. It was quite interesting to see the usually omnipotent Lin Qingyuan being deflated here.
After chatting for a while, Grandpa Su brought two bowls of specially made extra-large braised stew filled with various ingredients to the two of them, "Xiao Lin Xiaocheng, hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
"I can't eat it while it's hot. It's so hot...how can I eat it in my mouth?" Lin Qingyuan complained with a smile.
"You have to eat hot food in winter." Grandpa Su said.
"It won't work if it's too hot."
Grandpa Su glared at Lin Qingyuan with feigned anger, "A girl like Xiao Cheng, who has thin skin, tender flesh, and fair skin, didn't say anything, why are you the one doing so much trouble?!"
"Yes, yes, it's me who has a lot of trouble..." Lin Qingyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and could only nod in agreement.
Cheng Xiao couldn't help but snicker. Although she couldn't get in the conversation, it was quite interesting to watch the two chatting quietly like this. It was quite interesting to watch Lin Qingyuan being criticized by Grandpa Su.
Lin Qingyuan glanced at her, also pretending to be angry: "Why are you laughing? Why don't you eat it while it's hot?"
"Yeah, I'll eat it right away."
Cheng Xiao took out his mobile phone and took a group photo.
In the photo, she is smiling, while Lin Qingprin, who only shows his side face, is blowing on the stew.
