coronation of stars

Chapter 61
Su Ping and her are not ordinary friends, NG on the set is really more common than eating and drinking.Qiao Yan's apology was considered serious, while Su Ping's teasing was pure gag.The two of you came and I exchanged a few words, the two brothers patted each other's shoulders in a friendly way, then turned around, and started to pack things with the crew in a grand manner.

From the start to the present, the crew has survived the severe wind, snow and cold in January, but in February, the shooting has become even more difficult.Not all the people in the crew started to ignore their work. As the end of the year approached, people with families began to think about going home more or less. The efficiency can't be said to be backward, but it is true that they are not very motivated.

Including Gu Feisheng himself is actually the same. He is old enough. Although his family understands his persistence and love for the film all his life, his body cannot be ignored, especially Gu Feisheng's own physical condition is not optimistic. He was not allowed to continue filming so recklessly.

So as Qiao Yan got stuck in a difficult time that had troubled her for a long time, the production team of "The Emperor's Side" finally ended the staged filming on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. Everyone finally packed up their things and went home to celebrate the New Year.

When Qiao Yan changed her costume and found the makeup artist to remove her makeup, the makeup artist was still a little stunned.Qiao Yan waved his hand in front of her eyes twice, and asked a little funny: "What are you thinking, so engrossed?"

"Ah? Well...it's nothing." The makeup artist came back to her senses, smiled at her embarrassedly, and came over to touch up her makeup.However, judging from the fact that she started to gossip about Qiao Yan when the two met for the second time, she is really not a person who can calm down very much. Sure enough, after a while, she began to quietly approach Qiao Yan, gossiping asked.

"Hey, Qiao Yan." She gently touched Qiao Yan with her elbow, looked around, lowered her voice, and asked excitedly and curiously, "Why is your attitude towards Su Ping so natural?"

"Huh? We are friends." Qiao Yan gave her a blank look, not knowing what she meant by her sudden question.But she is also a person with exquisite seven orifices, and she understood what the makeup artist meant in a blink of an eye, and shook her head with a smile.

"24K pure friendship, don't think too much, come, take off your makeup."

"Oh..." The make-up artist let out a disappointment, looking a little disappointed, but soon regained his energy, and while carefully wiping Qiao Yan's face with makeup remover, asked her half jokingly and half seriously.

"But Su Ping is really handsome... I have read your Baidu Encyclopedia for a long time. Last year, you searched it when you just finished filming "Hong Yan Mou". Now this one is gone.”

"With so much contact, I always swear to the death and life in the drama, wouldn't my heart be really moved in reality?"

"We are actors. Theoretically, we will have a new partner every time we shoot a film. How can we have so much sincerity..." Qiao Yan smiled, slightly closed his eyes and raised his face, letting the makeup artist paint on his face. It's not too fast, it's rare to feel a little bit sentimental, "When filming, substituting a role is only one of the basic skills. Learning to distinguish between acting and reality is actually more important than substituting."

"Like the scene just now, when Xu Wang walked into the wind and snow with an umbrella, the composition and color matching are all exquisite and meticulous. In Jin Lan's position, I was naturally moved, but after the show, I am Qiao Yan and he is Su Ping. No matter how beautiful his back is, it has nothing to do with me..."

"And I like the one who holds the umbrella for me."

The make-up removal was basically finished, Qiao Yan opened his eyes, thanked him, said goodbye to the rest of the crew, and took a step ahead.The makeup artist was still thinking about what Qiao Yan said just now, and she had already left the set at this time, so she subconsciously glanced in the direction of Qiao Yan's departure, but without thinking about it, she just happened to see her walking to a black car parked beside the set. car, bent down and tapped on the window.

The makeup artist couldn't help but pause for a moment, and during this moment of pause, Mu Ting had already opened the car door and got out.His attire is considered low-key, but after being a celebrity for a long time, he will naturally have a special aura, even if he is in the crowd, he will never be mistaken for him.

He couldn't hear what they said in detail, but he could only see Mu Ting wrapping the scarf brought out of the car around Qiao Yan's neck, raising his hand to touch her long hair twice, and brushing away the snowflakes from props that had not been cleaned.Qiao Yan lowered her head cooperatively and let him move. After hearing something, she smiled warmly and brilliantly.

The makeup artist came back to her senses after being greeted by her companion, and took a last look at the two people who were already sitting in the car not far away, then turned around and waved to her companion: "Here! Lily, let me tell you, after today, I feel that I am really I believe in love again..."

"Why do you really feel like this when watching a filming?" The female companion laughed at her, the makeup artist shook her head, and said silently in her heart——

The person holding the umbrella for you is really worth cherishing.

At this moment in the car, Mu Ting stepped on the accelerator, and the car glides smoothly on the bustling street, blending into the rushing traffic.Qiao Yan leaned on the back of the co-pilot's seat and closed her eyes to rest, and suddenly heard Mu Ting asking her:

"Are you going back there this year?"

Qiao Yan paused, opened his eyes and turned to look at him.Mu Ting knew about her situation. Although she and her parents had never been very close, the blood relationship could not be severed. Every year during the Chinese New Year, Qiao Xue would go back to see her.

However, after graduating from university and entering the entertainment industry, and being able to afford the life of herself and Qiao Xue, she hardly ever went back.Now that Mu Ting specifically mentioned it, it is obvious that he didn't just intend to ask.Qiao Yan didn't answer, Mu Ting raised his hand and touched his nose uncomfortably under her gaze, but continued:

"It doesn't have to be this year's Chinese New Year, but if you plan to go back and have a look..."

"Do you want me to accompany you?"

Although he was active and proactive about meeting his parents, it was the first time he had experienced such a thing. He had always dared to fight hard and felt good about himself like Mu Ting. , the expression on his face was still a little subtly stagnant.

"We..." He coughed twice, and looked at the two sisters who were talking softly beside him, "...that's it?"

"Yeah, after flying for so long, I feel my whole body is stiff." Qiao Xue stretched her waist, leaned on Qiao Yan who was standing beside her like a boneless person, and looked up and down at Mu Ting curiously. , tsk tsk sound in the mouth.

"Oh brother-in-law, don't be so nervous, come and read with me, don't ask me who I am, I am beautiful-"

"Okay Xiaoxue, don't make trouble with him." Qiao Yan laughed and stopped Qiao Xue. The three of them stood at the corner of the airport, surrounded by crowds.As the Spring Festival approached, there were more and more paparazzi at the airport. Although the two were not afraid of going public, it was better to do less than to do more. They dressed very low-key, with big masks covering their faces and black-rimmed glasses covering their eyes. Wearing a baseball cap, it is difficult to recognize at a glance unless you look closely.

"But to be honest, don't be nervous." She looked sideways at Mu Ting, and smiled at him comfortingly, "Actually, it's really just to meet...don't think too much, it's not certain whether you will see it or not. "

"Yeah." Mu Ting nodded sullenly, he had no intention of making jokes at this time.It took a few seconds before I realized the meaning of Qiao Yan's sentence, "...why, maybe I won't see you?"

"Maybe, I don't know..." The driver's phone call came, Qiao Yan shook his head, greeted the two of them, and walked out of the airport first.

"Long time no see them."

They returned to the original residence of Qiao Yan and Qiao Xue. Their parents had already started their own families when Qiao Yan was in high school. After all, it is not easy to find another true love.Qiao Yan, with seven orifices as small as Qiao Yan, naturally couldn't fail to see it. After consulting Qiao Xue, she took the initiative to ask her parents about her idea of ​​living by herself.

She has always been prudent and well-behaved, and her parents were happy to see her so considerate. After a few symbolic words of persuasion, they promised that the child support would be paid on time. They left the original common house to the two sisters, and they each started to look for their own sea and sky. .In the past few years, both of them have married their own families, and the child support has become history two years ago.

"I can't blame them for this." Qiao Yan said, talking about it without much grudges, "Two years ago, Qiao Xue also became an adult, and my parents have made it clear that we don't need us to retire, although if it is true in the future It is impossible not to help when there are difficulties, but this kind of parenting relationship that does not ask for anything in return is well deserved, and it should stop after adulthood."

"I was almost able to support the two of us by then."

They are cleaning their original home at this time. Although they haven't lived in it for a long time, but fortunately they have someone to clean it regularly, so it's not too much trouble to clean it now.Mu Ting stood on a high place to wipe the light tube, and Qiao Yan helped him support the chair below.Mu Ting wiped off the thick layer of dust on the lamp tube, and after hearing Qiao Yan's words, he was distracted and thought about it.

"Just when you entered the entertainment industry?" He asked.

"Yeah, it's hard to find a part-time job with a higher salary for my major, so I went to the set to play tricks by accident." Qiao Yan admitted with a smile, raised her hand and lightly tapped the chair Mu Ting was stepping on, "Hurry up after wiping it off." Come down, it's dangerous to stand so high."

Well, here we go.Mu Ting responded honestly, seized the time to clean up, and jumped off the chair nimbly.Qiao Xue had already wiped off the floating dust on the furniture, Qiao Yan swept the floor, and the house was almost restored to a livable state.

Qiao Xue went out to buy food for the three of them in the past few days, while Qiao Yan received a video conference invitation from Kaixing, and returned to the room with a notebook in hand to participate.So for the time being, only Mu Ting was left with nothing to do in this family. Fortunately, he had a strong interest in this place and kept wandering around in each room.

Qiao Yan held a video conference in Qiao Xue's room, and Mu Ting poked his head in to look at Qiao Yan several times. After confirming that she would not end the meeting in a short time, he took out the photo album that Qiao Yan just dug out by accident, and sat in the living room. sitting on the sofa, watching with great interest.

There are not many photos in this album. Qiao Yan still doesn’t like taking pictures very much. Apart from work, he rarely fiddles with the camera. open.This photo album is only half full, and most of it is the photos from childhood - Mu Ting looked left and right at the photos, and felt an unspeakable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

My daughter-in-law!Good looking since childhood!He thought secretly.

In this photo album, the characters of the sisters have already emerged.Qiao Xue has always been an emoticon king since she was a child. When she was a child, she cried so much that her facial features crowded together in every photo. When she was a little older, she laughed so hard that her teeth could not be seen. Whether she was crying or smiling, the grinning mouth in each photo could be half the size of her face. big.

Qiao Yan, on the other hand, was much quieter. In most of the photos, she pursed her lips slightly and faced the camera with a smile. Only when she was being hugged would she show a big smile similar to Qiao Xue's, showing a cute dimple on one side.

But it didn't seem that she was picked up very often. Mu Ting searched through the whole photo album and couldn't find a few, but he finally saw the true faces of Qiao Yan's parents.

To be able to give birth to a pair of beautiful sisters, Qiao Yan and Qiao Xue, the parents are naturally very good-looking. Mu Ting turned a few pages, and the people in the photos are all smiling like flowers, and it is not at all obvious how close each other was in that real time. .

Mu Ting turned the album to the last page, and his hands paused slightly.

The background of the photo is the fabric sofa under him. It is rare for a family of four to appear in the photo.Qiao Yan and Qiao Xue stood side by side behind their parents, looking like teenage girls.The two adults had no other expressions on their faces, but Qiao Xue's eyes were red, obviously she had cried hard.

As for Qiao Yan like this... Mu Ting moved his finger to Qiao Yan's face, and slowly stroked it.

She is the only person in the photo who is still smiling. Unlike her parents, who are calm and breezy, and Qiao Xue, who is sad and sad, she looks normal, in good spirits, and stands upright with a strength that does not need comfort from others. Where.

Perhaps only Mu Ting, who is rubbing this photo after several years, understands the sadness that is so secret and unwilling to reveal.

When there was a knock on the door, Mu Ting came back to his senses, remembered Qiao Xue's going out to buy vegetables, and quickly stood up to open the door for Qiao Xue.After the door was opened, the people inside and outside the door met each other, but at the same time they were stunned for a moment.

"...Mu Ting?" The middle-aged woman with exquisite makeup blurted out his name, looked at him for a while, then leaned over to look inside the door, "Qiao Yan...is back?"

"Ah... um." Mu Ting opened his mouth, and made way sideways to let the woman whom he had just seen in the photo come in, "She is busy with work inside, Auntie, you can sit wherever you want."

When Mu Ting rummaged through the box and took out the tea set and half a can of tea from the kitchen and brought them to the living room, the embarrassment between the two of them finally eased with the mist of tea.Mu Ting drank tea mechanically, and was on high alert in his heart. He was obviously not prepared for the sudden face-to-face meeting with his mother-in-law.
