Chapter 23

Lin Jinse dragged her luggage and walked out of the villa, just as Song Qiaoyan arrived by car.

Song Qiaoyan stopped the car and saw that Lin Jinse came out so early, he was happy, and a smile like a spring breeze appeared on his face, "Didn't you tell me to wait for my call, why did you come out so early and wait? Aren't you the most afraid of the cold??"

Putting aside those annoying melancholy, Lin Jinse also smiled slightly: "I knew you were coming, so I came out. It's not just right now, it's cold somewhere."

Song Qiaoyan opened the car door, got out of the car, and said with a smile: "This is the so-called tacit understanding."

Lin Jinse smiled without answering, and pushed the luggage to him.

Song Qiaoyan didn't pick up the luggage, but grabbed Lin Jinse's hand, put it under his mouth, and breathed out at her, "He said it wasn't cold, but his little hands were cold."

Lin Jinse was a little shy, and worried that Jian Yishi would go crazy and run out to catch her back. She quickly withdrew her hand and said, "Brother Qiao Yan, let's go, it won't be cold when we get in the car."

Song Qiaoyan smiled and said, "Okay, it won't be cold when you get in the car."

Song Qiaoyan put the luggage into the trunk, opened the passenger door, raised his hand to the door frame, and said to her, "Be careful."

Lin Jinse sat in and smiled at him.

Song Qiaoyan started the car, Lin Jinse turned to look at his profile.

The swelling where he was beaten has subsided, but if you look closely, you can still see a little bruise.

"I'm sorry, Brother Qiao Yan, does the injury still hurt? Will it affect your acting?" Lin Jinse was full of guilt, couldn't help reaching out to touch his cheek lightly, and scolded Jian Yishi several times in her heart.

Song Qiaoyan grabbed her hand and held it, "It hurts a bit, why don't you help me?"

Lin Jinse remembers that summer, she was 9 years old and Song Qiaoyan was 11 years old. She had a quarrel with Jinnian that evening, and her grandfather was on Jinnian's side again, telling her to be an older sister not to haggle over every detail with her younger brother. She ran away in angerGoing out of the house, ran into Song Qiaoyan who was crying secretly in the grove behind the house.

Only then did she know that he was beaten by the drunk Uncle Song.

Uncle Song was originally a doctor in the Cardiovascular Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanxi Medical University. He was already the deputy chief physician before he was 40 years old. He has superb medical skills and is well received by patients. The future is bright.

Song Qiaoyan's childhood ideal was to become an excellent surgeon like his father.

However, due to a medical accident, Uncle Song had a conflict with the patient's family and was injured by the patient's family. He injured his finger. Since then, he could no longer pick up a scalpel and had to transfer to a teaching position.

This is a huge blow to a surgeon.Uncle Song failed to get out of this disappointment and began to drink alcohol to paralyze himself.

Song Qiaoyan was very disappointed with such a father. Every time his father drank, he would quarrel with him, and the result was that he would inevitably be beaten.

Seeing the bruises on Song Qiaoyan's hands and legs, Lin Jinse didn't know what to do. She only knew that when she was injured, her mother would help her "huhu", so she squatted beside him and said: "Brother Qiao Yan, let me help you Huhu, Huhu won't hurt anymore, stop crying if it doesn't hurt, okay?"

Later, every time Song Qiaoyan was injured, he would ask Lin Jinse to "huhu".

The last time I helped him Huhu was when he was 15 years old. Later, he grew up and was able to protect himself, so he was rarely injured.

Lin Jinse blushed, leaned close to his cheek, and blew gently.

Song Qiaoyan was driving the car when he suddenly felt the girl next to him exhale like blue on his face, and immediately trembled all over, almost losing his grip on the steering wheel.

When he turned his head, he saw Lin Jinse's quiet and beautiful side face with a rosy glow, the pink face was full of spring, extremely charming and charming, he couldn't help but feel a wave of excitement in his heart.

When she arrived at Song Minjun's house, Lin Jinse found that she was not at home.

"Where's Miss Minjun?" Lin Jinse asked.

Song Qiaoyan pushed her suitcase into the guest room, "She is a workaholic. She said that the company has something to deal with, so she went out early in the morning. She should be back at noon."

Lin Jinse nodded and walked around Song Minjun's house.

This is a house with two bedrooms and one living room. The environment of the community is quiet, and it is located on the edge of the first ring road.

"Miss Minjun is amazing. She bought a house after only five years of work." Lin Jinse stood in front of the French window in the living room, looking at the green plants in the community covered by snow.

Song Qiaoyan came over and wrapped her arms around her waist, "My cousin and grandma passed away, and I left her the house in her hometown. She didn't plan to go back, so she sold the house, plus the savings from working for several years, and paid for it.down payment."

Lin Jinse was a little uncomfortable with his sudden intimacy, she didn't dare to move, and gave a low "hmm".

Song Qiaoyan let go of her, pulled her shoulders and turned around, looking down at her.

They haven't seen each other for almost a year.

The last time we met was during Chinese New Year last year, and she was always smiling.

And now, although she also smiled faintly, there always seemed to be sadness hidden in her smile.

Song Qiaoyan was very distressed. She didn't know how she got here in the days when she first learned the bad news, and she also regretted not coming to her earlier.

"Xiao Jin, I'm sorry, I'm late." Song Qiaoyan reached out and hugged her into his arms.

Lin Jinse raised her eyes and looked at him, she had waited for him for too long, if she had cried in his arms before, but then she cried so much that her tears almost dried up, she couldn't cry anymoreI don't want to cry anymore.

"I'm fine." Lin Jinse said.

Song Qiaoyan supported her shoulders, looked down at her, she felt much lighter.

It turned out that some baby fat faces became the size of a palm, with a sharp chin, and eyes like a pool of green pools, clear and lively but invisible to the bottom, which made her more calm and melancholy, and also made her unearthly.The fairy spirit has gone up to a higher level.

Song Qiaoyan grew up with her, and he knew from a young age that she was a one-in-a-million beauty, the prettiest girl he had ever known.Now that he has entered the entertainment circle, he sees more beautiful women, but looking at her, he still has to sigh in his heart, her appearance and temperament are among the best even in the entertainment circle.

Song Qiaoyan's throat rolled, and he couldn't help feeling a little emotional, calling her in a low voice, "Xiao Jin."

"Huh?" Lin Jinse raised her head and looked up at him quietly.

Song Qiaoyan looked into her eyes and slowly lowered his head, wanting to kiss her.

Inexplicably, the scene of Jane Yishi kissing her last night flashed in Lin Jinse's mind. She panicked and turned her head away to avoid his kiss.

Song Qiaoyan only kissed her on the cheek.

At that moment, both of them were extremely embarrassed.

Fortunately, Song Qiaoyan's cell phone on the coffee table rang suddenly.

Song Qiaoyan let go, let go of her shoulders, walked to the tea table, picked up the phone, and answered the call.

"Sister Qing." Song Qiaoyan took the phone and went to the balcony to answer the call.

The person on the other end of the phone was Song Qiaoyan's manager, Zhou Qing, who was also his Bole.

"Song Qiaoyan, where are you now?" Zhou Qing said coldly.

Song Qiaoyan panicked, "Yes, in Beiling."

"I know you are in Beiling, where is Beiling?" Zhou Qing still had no good tone.

"At my cousin's house, in Washington, D.C...." Song Qiaoyan reported the address honestly.

"Hmph, you're really talented. You asked the director for leave while I was away. Who do you think you are, a big-name star!..." Zhou Qing scolded the director repeatedly on the phone.

Song Qiaoyan didn't dare to say a word, and waited for her to finish cursing before saying, "I'm sorry, Sister Qing, I know I was wrong."

After hearing his confession, Zhou Qing softened her tone, "You're waiting for me at your cousin's house, I'll come here now."

"When did you come to Beiling?" Song Qiaoyan was surprised.

Zhou Qing: "Just got off the plane."

Song Qiaoyan hung up the phone, came in from the balcony, and said to Lin Jinse, "Xiao Jin, I guess I have to leave tonight, my agent is here."

Lin Jinse heard Song Qiaoyan talk about Zhou Qing, but she had never seen her.

Song Qiaoyan started to work part-time as a graphic model when he was in high school, and thus met Zhou Qing, who is 5 years older than him.

Zhou Qing is a student of Nanxi Opera, but her appearance can only be regarded as delicate in Nanxi Opera where there are so many beauties. She also has a clear and full understanding of her acting talent, and she determined to be an agent early on.

She was very optimistic about Song Qiaoyan. When he was in high school, she introduced some more paid extras and graphic models to him for part-time jobs.

Under the influence of Zhou Qing, Song Qiaoyan decided to study Nanxi Opera, and thus embarked on the path of an actor.

Lin Jinse stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Is something wrong?"

Song Qiaoyan took her hand, went to sit on the sofa, and smiled helplessly, "I just realized now that after entering this industry, I really can't help myself. I asked for leave from the director without telling Sister Qing, and came to Beiling to look for you.”

Lin Jinse felt warm and held his hand tightly, "I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me, just do what you want, I support you."

Song Qiaoyan put his arms around her shoulders, "Xiaojin, Sister Qing will be here soon. If she says something unpleasant, you must bear with it and don't bother with her. She is a bit impatient, but it's all forHello, I have always had a knife mouth and a tofu heart."

"I know." Lin Jinse nodded.

Half an hour later, Song Minjun came back first.

Lin Jinse and Song Minjun haven't seen each other for 7 or 8 years. When they met, they hugged and laughed, as if they had returned to their childhood.

Song Minjun heard that his cousin's manager was also coming, and there were enough ingredients in the refrigerator, so he decided to show off his cooking skills.

Lin Jinse went to help in the kitchen.

After another half hour, the doorbell rang.

Song Qiaoyan went to open the door, and Lin Jinse and Song Minjun also came out to look when they heard the doorbell.

A young woman about the same age as Song Minjun came in. She had short, capable hair and heroic features, especially her eyes, which were full of eagerness and eagerness.

"Let me introduce you, this is my manager Zhou Qing." Song Qiaoyan first introduced Song Minjun and Lin Jinse.

"Sister Qing, this is my cousin, Song Minjun." Song Qiaoyan said, and he looked at Lin Jinse again with tender eyes, "Sister Qing, I told you, my childhood sweetheart, Lin Jinse."

Lin Jinse didn't know why he didn't introduce her as his girlfriend, but replaced her with her childhood sweetheart, but she didn't think much about it, and she also thought the introduction was pretty good.

Song Minjun, Lin Jinse and Zhou Qing nodded to each other.

Lin Jinse clearly felt that Zhou Qing's eyes lingered on her for a long time, with surprise, appreciation, and a little bit of unfriendliness.

Lin Jinse has always had a keen sense, and she wonders why Zhou Qing doesn't seem to like her very much.

After greeting Song Minjun, Lin Jinse and Zhou Qing, they went back to the kitchen, leaving Song Qiaoyan and Zhou Qing to talk outside.

"You really disappointed me. Did you forget what you promised me?" Zhou Qing reprimanded with a downcast face as soon as Lin Jinse and Song Minjun entered the kitchen.

Song Qiaoyan didn't speak, and dragged Zhou Qing to the balcony, and closed the French windows of the balcony tightly.

Song Minjun cut a plate of fruit and asked Lin Jinse to take it out for Zhou Qing and the others.

Lin Jinse came to the living room with fruit, and found that they had gone to the balcony, so she walked over with the fruit, intending to tell them that Sister Minjun had prepared fruit for them.

She walked a few steps, looked up to the balcony, and saw Song Qiaoyan and Zhou Qing standing face to face, Zhou Qing stretched out her hand and gently touched Song Qiaoyan's left cheek, as if caring about his injury, her eyes were full of tears.Distressed and tender.

Lin Jinse stopped involuntarily, she suddenly felt that she was a bit redundant and shouldn't bother them.

She turned around silently, put the fruit on the coffee table, and went back to the kitchen to help.

The four of them had a sumptuous lunch together. During the dinner, Zhou Qing said that she had bought a ticket for 4:00 p.m., and she and Song Qiaoyan would leave for the airport at 1:30 p.m.

After dinner, Lin Jinse helped Song Minjun tidy up, but was chased away by her, "You are stupid, Qiao Yan is leaving, what time are you wasting with me, hurry up and talk to him."

At this moment, Song Qiaoyan was standing at the door of the kitchen, beckoning to her with a smile, Lin Jinse blushed and followed him to the study.

"Xiao Jin, I'm leaving later." Song Qiaoyan took Lin Jinse's hand, and the two stood in front of the bookshelf and talked.

Lin Jinse nodded, "Well, work is important. After you played such a trick, you finally have a play worthy of the name. You should pay attention to it."

"Well, in fact, I had some opportunities to take the leading role before, playing the role of the leading actor and the second actor, but Sister Qing insisted that I start as a secondary actor in order to hone my acting skills and learn to observe words and demeanor, so that I can be an actor in this field.Go further on the road. The script of this drama is very good, and the characters are very pleasing, and it suits me very well. Sister Qing attaches great importance to this drama." Song Qiaoyan said while playing with her tender little hands.

Lin Jinse listened to his words about Sister Qing and Sister Qing, and almost regarded Zhou Qing's words as the standard. She felt a little uncomfortable, but she also knew that she was too sensitive, so she forcibly drove away this feeling.

Song Qiaoyan continued: "I told Sister Qing about us being together, but Sister Qing didn't agree, she said that in the entertainment circle, a newcomer like me cannot fall in love, and it's even more taboo to announce the relationship to the public, it will affect career developmentIt was a big blow. So, Xiao Jin, I have to wrong you. I can only announce to the public that I am single. This is also a kind of protection for you."

Lin Jinse also thought about this question, she didn't feel wronged, and said, "It's okay, anyway, falling in love is a matter between the two of us."

Song Qiaoyan held her hand tightly, thinking that we were going to part soon, and he didn't know when the next meeting would be, so he couldn't help but look down at her deeply, from her eyebrows and eyes all the way down to her lips and stop.

Her lips are pink and shiny, like a seductive peach.

He couldn't hold back, and slowly approached her with his head lowered.

Lin Jinse's shoulders tightened all of a sudden, and the hands hanging by her side were clenched unconsciously. The cold and handsome face of Jian Yi and the madness and heat when he kissed her came back to her mind.Just as he subconsciously tried to escape, there was a knock on the door and Zhou Qing's voice: "Qiao Yan, it's time to go, don't miss the flight."

Song Qiaoyan froze immediately, and had no choice but to respond: "Okay, I got it."

Lin Jinse also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

After Song Qiaoyan left, Song Minjun pulled Lin Jinse and said some personal words.

"Xiao Jin, Qiao Yan is really not easy, you must be more considerate of him in the future..."

Lin Jinse nodded meekly, she naturally knew that it was difficult for him.

The two of them are family friends. Both Song Qiaoyan's grandfather and her grandfather are professors at Nantah University.His parents are both doctors. He grew up in a wealthy family and was loved by his family.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long. After Uncle Song was injured in an accident and could no longer be on the operating table, his temperament changed drastically, he began to drink and gamble, and owed huge gambling debts.

Misfortunes never come singly, Song Qiaoyan's mother was diagnosed with leukemia again, and the treatment cost was high.

The family had to sell the house and spent all their savings to barely support the family.

So Song Qiaoyan has been doing various part-time jobs since high school, and he finally chose to step into the entertainment circle to make more money and give his parents a better life.

As the evening approached, Lin Jinse began to fidget. She was still thinking about her pear blossoms, and she was afraid that Jane would really go crazy and throw away the pear blossoms. In the end, she dragged her suitcase and returned to Jane's house.

Seeing her coming back, Zhang Qianhua asked in surprise, "Xiao Jin, why are you back again?"

Naturally, Lin Jinse would not say that it was because of Jian Yishi's threat, but only said: "Sister Minjun is too busy, I was afraid of disturbing her, so I came back anyway."

"Is that so." Zhang Qianhua didn't ask much, and went upstairs with her.

Lin Jinse followed Zhang Qianhua back to the room, glanced at the door of Jian Yishi's room, and asked a little unnaturally, "Auntie, has Ah Shi returned to the team?"

Zhang Qianhua said: "I'm not sure. I heard from Aunt Chen that Ah Shi's coach called and scolded him, saying that he left the team without authorization and told him to go back immediately. He must have gone back."

Lin Jinse suddenly remembered something, what about the pear blossoms, maybe they were really thrown out by Jian Yishi.

She ran out in a panic, Zhang Qianhua shouted from behind: "Xiao Jin, why are you going in such a panic?"

"No, it's nothing, I'll go to Aunt Chen's place." Lin Jinse replied to her.

Lin Jinse ran downstairs, out of the villa, and ran to the small building next to her. On the way, she tripped over a vine in the courtyard and almost fell.

Seeing Lin Jinse running in a hurry, Uncle Wang greeted him and asked, "Miss Lin, what's the matter? What happened?"

Panting, Lin Jinse shook her head, "It's all right." Then she asked, "Where's my pear blossom?"

Uncle Wang said: "I saw Master Ah Shi carried out in the afternoon, and I haven't seen him again."

Lin Jinse was startled, "What? Did he really take it out?"

Uncle Wang nodded and said affirmatively, "Yeah, I'm still persuading him, isn't he allergic to cats?"

Lin Jinse's heart suddenly turned cold, and she scolded Jian Yi for being ill.

She thanked Uncle Wang in despair, turned around and walked to the garden behind, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she wanted to make a phone call to scold Jian Yi, but found that she didn't bring her mobile phone.

When she walked to the corner of the South Garden, not far from the old pear tree, she saw a figure sitting on a stone chair under the tree, and she immediately recognized that person as Jian Yishi.

At this time, the sky was already dark and the snow had melted, but the sky was covered with fine snowflakes again. A dim yellow street lamp was propped up beside the old pear tree, casting warm yellow light on the young man, outlining his vivid image.Jun silhouette.

He sat there quietly, his back was inexplicably lonely.

Lin Jinse looked at her, her heart twisted slightly, and most of her anger towards him dissipated.

She is always soft-hearted, especially when facing Jian Yi, she is more likely to be soft-hearted.

She approached quietly, only then did she see a cat box beside him, and Lihua was in the box.
