You’re My Belated Happiness

After interrupting the call, Ruan Yu frowned, opened Xu Huaisong's WeChat dialog box, slid back and forth a few times, then put down the phone, and after a while, picked it up again.

Is it simply because there is no electricity, or is it for other reasons?

Xu Huaisong is a person with a history. Most of the days before this trip to the United States, he did not take a good rest due to jet lag. Last night, I had a night snack, and today I have been busy for a day of trial. Will there be anything wrong with his body ?

How about going to bed after six o'clock?

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, and the bottom of her eyes gradually became scorched.

Several other screenwriters in the car asked her if something happened.

Ruan Yu shook his head to indicate no, but he lowered his eyes but felt a sense of powerlessness.

She is so far away from Xu Huaisong and she doesn't know the friends around him, how can we confirm his peace.

She held the phone and flipped through it repeatedly, but her fingertips suddenly stopped on Lu Shenglan's WeChat dialog box.

The intense anxiety made her lose the leeway to hesitate. She highlighted the cursor and typed a line: "Miss Lu, take the liberty to interrupt late at night. I can't contact Huai Song, and I am a little worried about him. I don't know if it is inconvenient for you to help me ask him. 'S roommate, is he in good health?"

The view of the road outside the car window quickly reversed, and Ruan Yu pressed the send button.

However, Lu Shenglan estimated that WeChat is generally not used, so he did not reply for a while.

The car got off the highway and drove into the territory of Suzhou City. After driving until the gate of No. 1 Lieutenant Colonel, Ruan Yu received her message: "Wait a minute, I will contact you."

She let out a sigh of relief, got out of the car, and saw Xu Huaishi standing at the school gate waving at her: "Sister!"

Ruan Yu was stunned, greeted several screenwriters, and then went forward: "It's cold, why are you here?"

"Wait for you!" as he said, looked behind her, "the actors are not with you?"

She smiled helplessly: "The actors will not be here until evening, do you want to keep waiting?"

Xu Huaishi put her arm around her: "No, just follow you, so I won't be afraid to miss the big stars."

Ruan Yu glanced at her, one hand was held by her, and the other hand took out the phone to look through.

"What are you looking at, sister?"

"I can't get in touch with your brother, I don't feel relieved."

"Huh? When did you start not being able to contact?"

"About an hour ago, someone called him and transferred the message mailbox."

"Huh, but I called him two hours ago."

Ruan Yu was taken aback. It should have been not long before Zhou Jun contacted Xu Huaisong.

She asked: "Is anyone else okay?"

Xu Huaishi snorted, "It's okay. It just sounds sleepy. I woke up and had a very bad temper. He said that his phone was running out of power, so he told me to hang up."

Ruan Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

She really fell asleep and ran out of power. She was so concerned that she was confused. What did she make up for? He actually contacted Lu Shenglan.

She was about to send a message, telling her not to contact her, just watch her send a message: "I have asked, his roommate said that he is sleeping in the room, do you want to wake him up for you?"

Ruan Yu quickly replied, "No, let him sleep well. I will trouble you."

The stone in her heart fell to the ground, she immediately relaxed, turned her head to look at Xu Huaishi's knee-length school uniform skirt, and asked, "Isn't it cold to wear such a bit?"

"This is not because the crew is coming to film the scene. The New Year's Day fireworks show at the school is actually filmed. We have no class in the afternoon. I signed up for the evening group performance together with my classmates. Of course, we have to dress nicely."

"The playground with thousands of people is in the middle of the night again, and the fireworks exploded in a mess. Who can recognize who?"

"Then sister, why did you wear short skirts at the fireworks eight years ago?"

Ruan Yu choked. This is the sorrow that every detail of the relationship history is made public.

She sighed: "I knew that even if I was wrapped up as a bear, your brother would like me, so I'm not stupid and cold."

The two talked all the way inside.

Xu Huaishi said enthusiastically: "Sister, are you going to the playground now?"

Ruan Yu nodded.

"Isn't it going to be frozen until night? My brother is heartbroken."

"It's work, I posted a warm baby, it's okay."

"The actors haven't even arrived. Now the staff is still setting up the venue. You are just sitting there. Why don't you go shopping with me? I will ask a few classmates to spend the festival together in the evening, and please have a barbecue!"

Ruan Yu shook his head: "It's fine if you go with your classmates. Our director is a well-known fiend in the industry, so I asked him for leave on the first day, which is not good."

Xu Huaishi was full of disappointment: "But I have praised Haikou to everyone, saying that there is my prospective sister-in-law in the crew..."

She was called out by the three words "quasi-sister-in-law" with a sense of responsibility and mission, and said silently: "Then I will ask.

Ruan Yu turned his head and called the director. Before he could say all his intentions, he listened to the male voice with a smile and said, "Hey, you came so early. Maybe I forgot to notify you. You are ten o'clock in the evening. Just get there."

She choked: "Then I now..."

"Don't come to the playground and get caught in the cold, and wait for the actors to come and let you know."

Ruan Yu hung up the phone and looked at Xu Huaishi with a look of expectation: "How about, can the director speak?"

She nodded blankly.

What a gold medal director, what a fierce spirit, obviously gentle like her father.

In the evening, Ruan Yu, Xu Huaishi and a group of students who participated in the group performance left school and went to a nearby barbecue restaurant.

The simple and plain decoration is permeated with a warm atmosphere. Barbecue, carbonated drinks, babbled students, and naive truth or dare game, all of these add up to fill the void without Xu Huaisong by her side. With the real sense of the festival, even the heart seems to be getting younger.

Following them clamoring until nine o'clock in the evening, she received a message from Xu Huaisong: "I'm awake, what am I doing?"

She completely relieved her heart and spoke to Xu Huaishi next to her, then got up and left the seat, went outside the barbecue restaurant, and dialed his voice call.

The call was connected in seconds, and she shivered in the cold wind, but there was a smile on her face: "I have a barbecue with Huai Shi and her classmates, so young, I want to be seventeen years old."

Xu Huaisong smiled low, his voice was a little hoarse after waking up: "What is good about seventeen is not the legal age."

Ruan Yu was taken aback, just about to ask him what his legal age was, he heard him say: "Lao Baigan can't drink it."

"..." He was also addicted to drinking.

In silence, a whistle sounded on the phone.

Ruan Yu asked in surprise, "Are you outside?"

"Well, drive out for breakfast."

"Then pick up my voice, please drive well and speak later."

"Great."

After hanging up the voice, Ruan Yu glanced at the time and called the students back to school together. The playground has been set up in place, brightly lit on all sides, a few huge cameras are standing on the green field, group performances are sitting in the stands on standby, and the crew of the offstage crew rushes around.

Ruan Yu and Xu Huaishi parted, said hello to the director, walked under the actors' booth, and saw Li Shican and Sun Miaohan wearing the uniforms of Suzhou No. 1 Middle School, holding the script against the play.

She sat down opposite them, and just rubbed her hands, she saw Li Shican handing over a hot water bottle: "Many, here you are."

She thanked her and asked, "How's it right?"

Sun Miaohan patted his chest: "No problem!"

Li Zhican also nodded: "It's okay."

Looking at their overconfidence, Ruan Yu didn't seem to be particularly relieved, and exhorted: "Don't watch this scene with only the six-character line of the male protagonist. In fact, the emotion contained in it is the most abundant in the whole movie. . It’s like the feeling of a fountain pump being pressed to the extreme and suddenly suppressed on the edge of the explosion... Externalization without lines is the most difficult. I wonder why I filmed this paragraph as soon as I turned it on."

Sun Miaohan said hurriedly: "Maybe it is to save money, there are ready-made group performances and atmosphere props."

Ruan Yu nodded, frowned again, and whispered, "But why have to wait for zero?"

Looking at the weather, it’s not bad for a while, isn’t it good to finish the filming earlier and finish work earlier? She still wants to connect with Xu Huaisong.

Sun Miaohan smiled "hehe", scratching his head, unable to answer, and hitting Li Shican with his elbow.

Li Zhican said "Oh" and explained: "Uncle Cen pays more attention to the sense of ritual, and thinks this is a good luck, so he requires the director to take the first scene at zero. I think this has a good meaning, right?"

"Yes, it's good!"

Ruan Yu blinked dryly, picked up his mobile phone and complained to Xu Huaisong: "This crew is amazing. From investors to directors to actors, it seems that it's not normal."

Huai Song: "When you find that the whole world is abnormal, you should reflect on whether it is actually yourself that is abnormal."

Nephrite: "What are you doing, is there a knife in your mouth?"

Huai Song: "To make a girlfriend angry, and then coax it well, is a joy of life."

Nephrite: "You don't seem to be right, maybe it's me who is abnormal..."

Ruan Yu put down the phone and waited sadly for zero.

Until 11:30, thousands of group performers were finally called to the playground by the director, and immediately after 11:50, the two protagonists also walked into the green field.

The staff went back and forth to confirm the position of the lights and fireworks. At 55 minutes, someone called Ruan Yu's name: "Sister Ruan, please take a look at the viewing angle."

Ruan Yuzheng wanted to join Xu Huaisong for New Year's Eve. He put down his mobile phone and got up in confusion.

Why should she look at the viewing angle? She is not "Guard Ruan".

Ruan Yu was led to the center of the playground by the staff, and listened to the lecture on technical terms that she didn't understand, and finally understood the sentence: "Xiao Ruan, don't shoot the leading role in the first act, take the big shot, you just stand here to feel The following scenes do not match the original work."

"..."

Although you haven't made a movie, why do you think this mode is weird? Ruan Yu asked cautiously: "Director, this is the center point under my feet, won't you be photographed standing here?"

The director said "no" and explained a bunch of technical terms to her.

She was stunned for a while, and when she reacted, it was fifty-nine points.

The director slapped his thigh with "Oh", holding the horn and shouting: "Prepare for the countdown." After speaking, he solemnly confessed to her, "Be sure to stand on this point, raise your head, and feel it with your heart!"

"..."

Ruan Yu began to wonder if she had encountered some weird paddling crew.

Under the direction of the director, a group of actors surrounded her in a circle, and she stood at the center of the entire playground, looking towards the deep blue sky, as if being driven by a duck.

The Milky Way is spread over the head, and the stars are shining in the sky.

The countdown started on all four sides: "Five, four, three, two..."

The word "one" fell, the fireworks exploded, and the trees and silver flowers of the fire tree rose into the sky suddenly, and the colorful lights fell in the sky.

At the same moment, one hand held Ruan Yu.

She almost screamed, "Ah" overflowed to her lips, but first turned her head to see the master of the hand.

In the fading light and shadow, she saw this person wearing a full-length suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking down at her with a smile.

Xu Huai Song.

At this moment, Xu Huaisong should be more than 10,000 kilometers away.

Ruan Yu opened his mouth slightly, shocked beyond words, turned his head stiffly, looked at everyone who was looking at them with smiles, and reacted.

The movie was not made like this at all.

There have never been any magical crews, and some are just the hearts of the people who have been bought. Thousands of hearts were bought.

She stared at Xu Huaisong, banging quickly with hindsight, and it exploded into a frequency with the fireworks above her head.

But this time, until the fireworks burned out, he didn't let her go.

Ruan Yu seemed to have a premonition of what would happen next, so Ruan Yu swallowed nervously.

There were thousands of people around, but none of them made a sound. Everyone was waiting for Xu Huaisong to speak.

Then, they saw him holding his heroine's hand under the bright lights and said: "On this day eight years ago, I lied here and lied to the girl I like. Eight years later On this day, I lied to her again and let more than a thousand people lie with me for a day. So many lies, to explain the first one, to tell her that I had a mouthful of lies, but there was only one from beginning to end. I like her heart."

Xu Huaisong smiled when he said that, took out a dark blue ring box, opened it, and knelt down on one knee facing her.

Everyone on all sides couldn't help but exclaim and cheer.

Ruan Yu's nose was sorrowful, and his eyes flickered. The diamond ring and him reflected in his eyes seemed to be more dazzling than the stars in the sky.

Xu Huaisong looked up at her and continued: "It took me eight years to go back and forth to this day. I came to her again and wanted to tell her that in the next eight years, eighteen years, eight For ten years, I don’t want to go away with her again. Ruan Yu, would you marry me?"

—— Ruan Yu, would you marry me?

When this moment did not happen, she thought that as a romance writer, she should have many ingenious answers to this sentence.

Romantic, special, unconventional.

But when this moment really came, she lost all the ability to think in the silence of the world.

Just like the one who can respond to "I love you", it seems that there is only "I love you too", and she can't say anything unique.

Ordinary and small, when they met love, they finally fell into a cliché ending.

And she, like all the loved girls in the world, burst into tears at this moment, and focused on the person staring at her, telling him: "I do."
