once i loved you

Chapter 8

The political events in Thailand did not have any impact on the flight, the plane took off normally, and Cen Xiao arrived at the Capital Airport on time as expected.

On the way home by taxi, she changed her phone card back and called Shu Lian to report her safety.

Shu Lian learned that Cen Xiao was not missing an arm or a leg, and was able to come back alive and kicked. After holding back for a long time, she burst out of breath and choked Cen Xiao for a while. Tianye Chengjin was also looking for her.

Hearing the three words Ye Chengjin, she immediately felt bad.

In Thailand these past few days, although there was a shining man dangling in front of her eyes, which distracted a lot of her attention, Ye Chengjin, after all, had lived in her heart for almost four years. It is really not an easy task to pull this person out of my heart.

"Did he say what's the matter?" Cen Xiao suppressed his emotions and asked in a normal tone.

"No." Shu Lian paused, "The first time he called was the day you boarded the plane. I was worried about you, and I was in a bad mood, so I scolded the heartbroken man, saying that if it wasn't because he broke your love , you will not go to Thailand to relax without any problems. As a result, when he heard that he was angry with me, he asked me why I didn’t stop you? You think this person is interesting or not! He is happy to marry another woman , what qualifications do you have to control where you go? Besides, you are not..."

"Maybe something fell on me." Cen Xiao made an excuse, and quickly interrupted Shu Lian, her hand holding the microphone trembled, and said, "I'll send a message later and ask him."

"Okay, you ask! Clarify everything that needs to be clarified and explained, and don't contact me if you can't contact me in the future."

Cen Xiao agreed to her, and chatted with Shu Lian about traveling in Thailand, and the two disconnected.

Looking at the bare trees passing by all the way, Cen Xiao was stunned for a while, until she suppressed the turbulent emotions, she slowly took out her mobile phone.

She opened WeChat, found Ye Chengjin's avatar, unconsciously stroked it from left to right, clicked on it, and typed in a tone that could not be seen as hot or cold: I heard you were looking for me?something?
Hit the send button.

After Ye Chengjin was transferred abroad, he was busy with work and it was inconvenient to answer the phone, so he asked Cen Xiao to send him a message if he had something to do, and said that he would see it when he was not busy.

But Cen Xiao felt that the feeling of holding the phone and waiting for the other party's reply was really difficult.While she was waiting for his reply, she would always feel the notification sound of her mobile phone, repeating this several times, and finally waited for him to reply, she opened it happily, and what caught her eyes was often deserted and deserted. word reply.This feeling of disappointing expectations is too much like being poured with a basin of ice water on a cold day, it is the cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow.

In the past, whenever this happened, Cen Xiao would use her Ah Q spirit to comfort herself with the reason that "Ye Chengjin is in the rising stage of his career, he is so busy, and he is working hard for their future", and told himself not to be careless because of this. suspicion.

However, what is ridiculous is that before she reached the point where she could "be no longer able to bear it", he easily sentenced their relationship to death with just a phone call and a few text messages.

Cen Xiao took the suitcase out of the taxi, pulled out the handle, and was about to carry it away when the mobile phone in her coat suddenly trembled with joy. She took out the mobile phone, glanced at the name on the screen, was stunned for a moment, and switched on. , "..."

"Hello?" The coldness in Ye Chengjin's voice was comparable to the polar weather of tens of degrees below zero, as if he could freeze you as long as you exhaled, "Are you finally willing to come back?"

"..." Cen Xiao took a deep breath while holding the phone, thinking that whether I come back or not has something to do with you?Why do you still talk to me in a boyfriend's disciplinary tone like before?

"Cen Xiao, talk!" Ye Chengjin was quite gentle most of the time, but when he got angry, he became fierce, cold and even mean.

Cen Xiao used to think that he was so manly, but now he really dislikes him from the bottom of his heart.

This was the first time he had contacted her since he called her in the fishing village to break up with him.Facing his voice, she admitted that she was still very uneasy.However, some things are different after all.

"I heard from Shu Lian that you came to me. Please tell me quickly if you have anything to do. I'm very busy." She pulled the suitcase and walked forward, listening to the noise made by the wheels of the trolley suitcase rubbing against the ground, she felt a lot better. .

No matter how harsh the noise was, it couldn't be more harsh than Ye Chengjin's voice.

"Are you so impatient to talk to me?" Ye Chengjin sneered on the phone, "Cen Xiao, tell the truth, if you didn't miss me, why would you go to Thailand to relax?"

Cen Xiao almost wanted to swear when he heard it. After a long time, Ye Chengjin's heart has changed!But how could his arrogant self-importance stand up to the passing of time?

"Boss Ye, I would like to advise you. Don't feel too good about yourself!" Cen Xiao was annoyed.

Ye Chengjin seemed to have been hit hard on the back of the head by his words.

He didn't expect that Cen Xiao, who was always docile and docile in front of him, would talk to him in such a tone one day.

After a long time, Ye Chengjin spoke again, but this time, his voice was surprisingly softer, "Xiaoxiao, I still owe you an explanation. Look, I'm on a business trip in Beijing now. If it's convenient for you, we can come together Let's have a meal, I want to explain to you clearly what happened to me. Maybe we can still be friends in the future. "

to be friends?
Maybe there are many people who can be friends after breaking up, but Cen Xiao thinks that at least this will not happen to her.

She flatly rejected his suggestion and hung up the phone quickly.

In her impression, Ye Chengjin is not a procrastination person.She didn't know why he insisted on explaining to her, even if he really had a great reason, so what?The matter has come to this point, there is really nothing to talk about between them.

That day when she and Lao Wang were interviewing in the fishing village, Ye Chengjin called suddenly, and he told her on the phone that there was a woman who was pregnant with his child, and when he decided to be responsible for her and marry her...

She ran outside the venue of the Cultural Festival, and after hearing what he said, she didn't say a word for a long time, surprised, angry, unwilling, sad... Cen Xiao was extremely confused and embarrassed at that time.

They had quarreled before, but the nature was completely different from this time.

During the year when Ye Chengjin was transferred abroad, no matter whether he was really busy or pretended to be perfunctory, it is a fact that his indifference to her wiped out their relationship. A deadly sword.

Cen Xiao was silent on the phone for about ten minutes.

But in the end, she suppressed the choking in her throat, and told him firmly in a very calm voice that she agreed to break up with him!

When she hung up the phone, she was heartbroken, but she also knew that many years later, she would definitely applaud her chicness when she turned around.

Because, even though she lost this battle, she was not embarrassed at all.

After a few days of debugging, Cen Xiao started looking for a job.

It was a coincidence that she started working in photography at the beginning, but after she joined the magazine, she learned a little bit from her master, and finally fell in love with photography.So this time she has a clear goal, and all she is looking for is photography work.

In a week, she interviewed about four or five companies and studios, but after the interview, either she felt that the other party was not suitable, or the other party thought that she was not suitable enough. In short, the two sides could not see each other.

On this day, she had just quit an interview when she suddenly received a call from her mentor, Lao Wang, who was brought to her by the magazine she used to work for.

Lao Wang said that a friend's studio just happened to be recruiting photographers.He recommended her there and asked Cen Xiao to go over there for another interview.Cen Xiao thought to himself, since an acquaintance introduced him, the chances of success might be higher, so he agreed.

Beforehand, out of trust in Lao Wang, she didn't ask what studio it was.However, according to the address provided by Lao Wang, she arrived in front of the LOFT door where the studio to be interviewed was located. After seeing the simple signboard hanging on the left side of the door, Cen Xiaodeng was a little dumbfounded.

Macro white image.

The well-known Hongbai Video Studio is almost unknown to everyone in the domestic photography circle.

It is not a profit-making organization that mainly takes photo shoots. It was established by Mr. Mu Hongbai. It not only provides opportunities for qualified young photographers to learn and exercise free of charge, but also recommends their works during this study to All major authoritative print media and online media published to help them gain popularity.But in return, Hongbai Image will ask them to sign a three-year contract with the studio.

Mu Hongbai is a businessman as well as a cultural person.Although he has his own business plans, he is by no means a profiteer who simply relies on exploitation for profit.

A three-year contract will assign these new photographers to a sub-brand photography agency under Hongbai Studio.Then, according to the specific strength of each of them, they will be rewarded for their labor with a lot of money.This mode of operation is a win-win situation for both parties.

However, although the opportunity is good, it is also rare.It is said that Hongbai Image is very cautious in selecting talents, sometimes accepting three to five people every year, and sometimes not accepting any suitable ones at all.

Cen Xiao murmured in her heart, she wondered how Lao Wang helped her find such a good opportunity?But after another thought, Lao Wang is a senior after all, he has been in the industry for a long time, and he knows a lot of people in the circle. Since he found this opportunity for herself, she should not think about it, but cherish it.

At the front desk of Hongbai Video is a girl in her twenties wearing a navy blue suit. She is tall and slender, has graceful eyebrows and eyes, and has a pleasant voice.She received Cen Xiao gently and patiently, and after understanding her reason for coming, she led her to the lounge.

After a while, the delicate girl at the front desk led a handsome middle-aged man in.After the man nodded his head to the girl at the front desk, the latter retreated outside and closed the door gently.

"Hi, my name is Mu Ziyue."

The man named Mu Ziyue is Mu Hongbai's only son, and Cen Xiao has seen his works before.Seeing him in person today, I feel that his works and people are quite in line with each other. Both are like a trickling stream, elegant and unstained.

Cen Xiao shook hands with the man, and said politely, "Mr. Mu, hello, my name is Cen Xiao."

Mu Ziyue smiled and nodded, as a response, "Miss Cen, don't be reserved, sit down quickly."

"Although someone recommended Miss Cen to Hongbai Video, even if there are acquaintances, our studio will not accept people if they are not good enough." Mu Ziyue emphasized that he lacked confidence in himself. Cen Xiao raised his heart all of a sudden, "But I have seen Miss Cen's works, and I think you still have great potential, so I decided to keep you."

Cen Xiao's eyes lit up with joy, "Thank you, Mr. Mu, for your compliment. I'm just a beginner. If I can really stay, I will work very hard."

"Yeah." Mu Ziyue smiled meaningfully, "You are the person specially recommended by my junior brother. In this regard, I believe you."
