Chapter 7 Tightrope Walking
Although Lu Qingqing said "Okay", deep in his heart, Lin Lang still felt that Lu Qingqing might want to dote on him again.After all, it has been pigeond twice before.
She even understood Lu Qingqing very well.
Crying so embarrassingly on the plane, the person who saw her crying was still a former partner, and she had been fired for cp for a while—the point is that during the process of firing cp, the two of them had a vigorous exchange of candy.Later, Lu Qingqing's fans anxiously wanted to untie Lin Lang, and they fought with cp fans for a while.Later, Lu Qingqing cooperated with the male star, and Lin Lang was still that 18-line little transparent.Lu Qingqing's fans, or the agency behind Fantou, judged that this pair of Lily CP would no longer be a stain on Lu Qingqing's future career path, so Lin Lang was let go.
From a business cooperation point of view, the two of them should be embarrassed when they meet again.
It's just a professional habit that requires them to smile in front of each other.
Lin Lang compared his heart to his heart, and then happily rested at home for a day.She dug out the films she had made over the years and looked at them one by one.Many of them are typical bad movies with third-rate production and third-rate special effects. Even so, Lin Lang can still say with conscience that she absolutely, absolutely puts her heart into any role she plays.
Even in many cases, the director and screenwriter of the film are also seriously polishing.But sometimes, if you don't put your heart into it, you can shoot good works.
A few years ago, there was a vigorous farce in the circle.The film crew spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build a dreamlike fantasy shooting location.They also invited well-known acting schools to try to create a Chinese version of "Lord of the Rings".But when the film was released, the results were dismal. The audience unanimously said that the so-called venue costing hundreds of millions was too ugly and they were blinded by it.
Later, Lin Lang vaguely heard that the film's investors, director and others lost all their money.
She cut herself a plate of fruit.Now there is no job, and the savings are still abundant, so even time has become worthless.While humming, she patiently cut apples into bunny shapes and put toothpicks on them.Finally, looking at the finished product and thinking about Lu Qingqing on the plane, Lin Lang said in his heart: "I'm really a person who has no pursuit."
But she is content with it.
So Lin Lang took the fruit plate and sat back on the sofa again.She sank into the sofa, looking at herself in the past shots over and over again.The apples are sweet and crunchy, and when you bite into them, you can touch a little splash of juice on the tip of your tongue.
It was getting dark, but Lin Lang didn't turn on the light.She seemed to have fallen into a long silence, a world to herself.
Until the phone rang, Lu Qingqing's voice was full of fatigue, gentleness, expectation, and an imperceptible sweetness, and asked her: "Lang Lang, I'm off work, are you coming to pick me up?"
Lin Lang: "..."
Lin Lang sat up straight from the sofa and glanced at his phone.Sure enough, it was already eight forty.
She asked, "Where's your assistant? Where's the driver?"
Lu Qingqing replied: "Didn't you want to invite me to dinner—" Lu Qingqing's voice was a little lazy, and Lin Lang couldn't help but imagine Lu Qingqing leaning on the back of the chair and looking at her delicately manicured nails.She subconsciously bit her nails and glanced at the fruit bowl.
Lin Lang ate this plate of fruit, and now his stomach is not empty, and he doesn't feel hungry.But when she heard Lu Qingqing's soft voice, she suddenly felt her throat dry.
So Lin Lang stood up.She was barefoot, stepping on the floor.Auntie came to clean the house yesterday, the floor is very clean.Maybe there was a little dust, but Lin Lang didn't care.
The TV emitted fluorescence, and Lin Lang could easily identify where the furniture was placed.She took the cup from the coffee table and poured herself some water.The water was rushing, and the room was too quiet, so Lu Qingqing could easily hear it.
Lu Qingqing was quiet and asked, "Langlang, are you still at home?"
Holding the water glass, Lin Lang responded casually.
The water was slightly hot, and the temperature poured into Lin Lang's palm along the wall of the cup.She began to feel warmer, and walked between the light switches again.
There was a "click", and the room was bright.
Lu Qingqing said softly: "I'm here at Beijing University, and today's show was filmed here."
Lin Lang thought to himself: "There are many students in Beijing University, and the students always like to surround the stars. You let the assistant go, are you alone now?" She was a little worried about Lu Qingqing, and said, "Okay, I'll pick you up, what do you want? Think about what to eat tonight."
There was a bit of grievance in Lu Qingqing's voice, and she said, "Ah, do you want me to order?"
Lin Lang somehow felt that Lu Qingqing was blaming her.
Sure enough, the other party said in the next sentence, "I thought you had already done it, Langlang." The voice was very soft, and the ending floated, as if it was about to melt into the night wind.
Lin Lang glanced at the empty dining table and said, "No, I'll wait for you."
Lu Qingqing seemed to smile and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you too."
After the call ended, Lu Qingqing sat up straight and said to the assistant and driver in the nanny's car: "Wait another 10 minutes, and you will be paid overtime."
The assistant giggled and said, "No need, when will we not work overtime? That's how wages are calculated."
Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "That's fine."
She flicked her phone.After running all day today, she is really tired.Fortunately, she is considered popular now, and the director of "Running" doesn't make it difficult for her. The focus of the game's tricks falls on another male star.Lu Qingqing could even imagine how the other party would become popular after the show was broadcast.Of course, if Sister Zhang likes to create topics so much, she must be sent up too.
But Lu Qingqing got used to it.
She waited another 10 minutes and even took a nap during that time.It's just that this sleep was really too short, she woke up soon and saw Lin Lang calling herself.
So she gestured to the assistant, got out of the car by herself, and looked at the surrounding landmarks.The assistant closed the car door behind her and reported to the agent: "Sister Qingqing and Lin Lang have an appointment for dinner. Yes, um, I saw her get into Lin Lang's car, safe."
In the car, Lin Lang's first sentence was: "You are a bit self-conscious about being a popular actress, okay? If someone finds you here alone, it's fine to be crowded out by people who want to sign autographs. A few years ago, someone went to an event When I was directly crushed to the ground and kissed by fans, what would you do in such a situation? There were security guards at the time, and they couldn’t pull people away, look at your thin arms and legs.”
She spoke quickly, and after a while, seeing the tired look on Lu Qingqing's face, she softened her voice and said, "It's too late, are you hungry? I made soup before going out, and I'll drink some when I get home. Appetizer. I will cook for you later, soon, I have already figured out the recipe, so I don’t have to wait long.”
Lu Qingqing bent her lips and said, "Okay." She didn't answer the previous words at all.
Lin Lang said: "By the way, if your assistant is gone..." Where do you sleep at night?
She didn't say a word for the second half, but Lu Qingqing had already answered: "I told the driver, I will go downstairs to pick me up at your house tomorrow morning."
Lin Lang paused for a moment with his hands holding the steering wheel, but didn't say much.
She bought a house at the time, a three-bedroom apartment, and thought that she would become famous in the future, and she could bring her parents to live in her, and the remaining room would be used as a guest room, so she could sleep for a night when friends came occasionally.
Later, my parents stayed in my hometown all the time, and felt that there were more friends in my hometown, so Lin Lang didn't mention this anymore.
Speaking of which, during the time when their business was the busiest, Lu Qingqing also slept in her house.
Lu Qingqing leaned against the car window in a daze, and after a while, looking at the neon lights on the side of the road, "Your neighborhood was photographed a few days ago, saying who is cheating on you."
Lin Lang: "That's right, but one of the parties should have asked someone to take the picture, since the gate control is usually very strict."
Lu Qingqing smiled, her voice sweetened again.But probably because he was too tired, even the sweetness in his voice was compromised.She sat crookedly, very unseemly, but also very relaxed, and said, "I thought about it before, when I buy a house, I will also buy it from you."
Lin Lang's heart moved, and he said, "What do you think of my house?"
Lu Qingqing was startled.
Lin Lang was very distracted, but he was really selling. He said, "The floors and lighting are pretty good, and the location is not bad. Besides, I have lived here for many years, and I have dealt with neighbors, and they are very easy to get along with."
There is not much space in the car, and Lu Qingqing seems to be able to hear her own heartbeat.There was chaos in her heart, and she always felt that she had misunderstood Lin Lang's meaning, but the other party said it so clearly, how could she misunderstand.
She turned her face slowly, wanting to see Lin Lang's expression.He just turned halfway, stopped again, and realized: "No way, if I look at Langlang, she will also see me." It's too early to reveal the hole card.
Lu Qingqing wanted more security.
She leaned back.Lin Lang suspected that she wanted to take off her shoes.If it was his cousin doing this in the car, Lin Lang would probably complain directly, but he felt that his cousin usually worked very hard, even if he took off his shoes in the car, he must be too tired, so let politeness go to hell.
But what if it was Lu Qingqing?
She used to feel that Lu Qingqing was a little too familiar with her.
Lin Lang said: "That's right, the seat covers on my car are in the same style as those on the sofa at home. I suddenly wanted to change them a short time ago, and felt that the color of the seat covers before was too dark and looked uncomfortable. Later, I picked them out and took a look. I just fell in love with this. I thought it was very kind at the time, but when I got home, I saw the sofa."
Lu Qingqing smiled cooperatively and said, "Have you heard that story? I have been on blind date thirty times, and I finally fell in love with the last person at first sight. I felt that there was an appointment in the previous life. After getting married, the father-in-law and mother-in-law said, 'You two had a blind date for the first time back then. If you see right from time to time, how can there be so many times later'."
Lin Lang also laughed, and said, "Yes, I have."
Lu Qingqing's voice became softer, and she said, "You've heard it all, let me say it again..."
She felt that such a conversation was really boring, but it was full of fireworks, so she couldn't help but want to continue talking.
The two chatted all the way.
When getting on the elevator, Lu Qingqing's heartbeat still didn't slow down.
She followed Lin Lang all the way upstairs.During the period, someone got on and off the elevator, glanced at Lu Qingqing who was wearing a mask, and then turned his gaze indifferently.There are many celebrities in this community, and other residents are also celebrities from all walks of life.Seeing Lu Qingqing's appearance, he already had a plan in his heart.
Lu Qingqing didn't care about the visitor.She turned her head sideways to see her reflection in the mirror.After recording a program for a day, I only rested in the car for a while.She was palpitating, tired, and felt that her heart didn't belong to her anymore.
But Lin Lang——Why didn't he continue what Lang Lang said just now?
The elevator stops and someone goes down.Gradually, only Lin Lang and Lu Qingqing were left in the metal cage.
Lu Qingqing heard Lin Lang speak as she wished, and said, "Look at this orientation, it's warm in winter and cool in summer. Yes, the heating in winter is also very good." As she spoke, she took out her keys and made a series of jingling bells. movement.Lu Qingqing stood half a meter behind her, looking at her back, with a fire burning in her heart.
She thought about her bank account, about her agent, about her contract with the company.Thinking of Weibo, thinking of the Haijiao community, thinking of her fans on countless platforms on the Internet, those who like her, and those who are willing to work hard day and night to help her rank in the rankings.
Sometimes, Lu Qingqing would be at a loss.It should be very common to like someone and be willing to spend time for the other person.But when the people who like her are a huge group, each "individual" in it is simplified into a trivial number, an ID that can be forgotten after seeing it.She often thinks: "Why do they like me? Why don't they like Langlang?"
But Lu Qingqing was never able to tell others about her troubles.Others will only think she is hypocritical after listening to it.
There is a small balcony next to the door of Lin Lang's house. When waiting for Lin Lang to open the door, Lu Qingqing turned her head and could see the lights of Wanjia outside.
Her heartbeat finally slowed down.
When she first joined the crew of "Twins", then she signed a contract with a brokerage company, and then went all out to advertise and shoot TV dramas. Isn't what she did was popular, traffic, or making money?
She doesn't know why those people like her, are willing to spend money for herself, and buy hundreds of her EPs at once-this year, which traffic Xiaohua has not developed in an all-round way, of course Lu Qingqing has also released EPs, singing It is the theme song of a TV series, and there are several other love songs with a similar style. Among them, the tuner has contributed a lot - but the manager, Sister Zhang, once said that she will be responsible for these. Lu Qingqing doesn't need to understand, she just needs to be under the spotlight It is enough to glow and heat.
She has a delicate face bestowed by God.
Lin Lang finally opened the door.
She looked sideways at Lu Qingqing and smiled: "Okay, come in."
Lu Qingqing responded and stepped into the door.
She smelled the fresh aroma of soup.
It's obviously a very light smell, but Lu Qingqing has been hungry for a long time, and now the aroma enters her nostrils, and her stomach makes a "gurgling" sound.She covered her face, as if embarrassed, and said: "I haven't eaten much at noon, I felt too hungry, but I don't feel it anymore." She explained in a low voice.
Lin Lang smiled understandingly, and said, "Okay, you can sit at the dining table, and I'll bring you soup." I left in a hurry before, but luckily there were prepared dishes in the refrigerator, and my aunt had already washed, After cutting, Lin Lang only needs to put all the ingredients into the pot.
She went to work in the kitchen, and Lu Qingqing was sitting at the dining table, holding her chin, looking at Lin Lang's back.
"Langlang." Lu Qingqing lazily called out.
Lin Lang turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lu Qingqing's heart was suddenly hit.
Lin Lang was clearly standing there, but she felt that Lin Lang was right in front of her.She reached out a little, and she was able to touch each other.
The aroma of soup filled the room, and there was a person who served her soup.
This is "home".
Lu Qingqing lowered her head, pointed her fingers at the screen of her mobile phone, and asked in a natural and steady voice, "What's the password for your Wi-Fi?"
Lin Lang reported a series of numbers, while Lu Qingqing stared at the "Connected" on the phone in a daze.She really wanted to say: "Langlang, you haven't changed your password for so many years, do you know how insecure you are?" But it couldn't explain her question just now.
Lu Qingqing chose to keep silent.
She thought again: "Whose birthday does this string of numbers look like?" Could it be Lang Lang's parents?she does not know.
Lin Lang quickly brought over the soup.Very ordinary chicken stew with mushrooms and corn.It smells fresh, and tastes it, it is full of fragrance.
Ripples appeared in Lu Qingqing's heart that had barely calmed down.
Lin Lang said: "You drink a little first, to fill your stomach, it's also an appetizer."
Lu Qingqing agreed: "Okay."
She held the bowl very seriously and drank the soup slowly.
Lu Qingqing used to cook by herself.Parents were unreliable in the kitchen, and she learned to be self-sufficient at an early age, and she was reasonably good at it.In the years when she was in college, she went to the homes of local classmates and occasionally showed her skills.
Later, after she entered the entertainment industry and signed a contract with a brokerage company, she was so busy that she often caught a plane in the middle of the night, turned day and night upside down, and even made do with various meals.It’s not that the food is not good. In many cases, the lunch box contains nutritious meals that the company invites experts to formulate.But speaking of it, it has been several months since the last time she ate such a home-cooked meal.
At first, the meal appointment with Lin Lang was just a joke.
In the end, although Lu Qingqing regretted that she always had something to do and missed it all the time, she also felt that there was not much regret.She thought she just missed the time to talk to Lin Lang in the hotel box.
Now, she was suddenly glad that she met Lin Lang on the plane yesterday.
Lu Qingqing shouted: "Lang Lang!"
Lin Lang didn't look back this time, and asked directly with his back turned: "What's wrong?"
Lu Qingqing said, "Why were you on the plane yesterday?"
Lin Lang said: "Didn't I go home before?"
Lu Qingqing was silent for a moment, then quietly said: "And then until now?"
Lin Lang said: "Yes."
Lu Qingqing sighed, a little envious, a little jealous, and a little inconceivable.She wanted to ask Lin Lang: "I've been digging my feet at home for so long, dear, are you planning to quit the circle?" But this kind of words are a bit hard to ask.
If you can't grasp the scale a little bit, it's like showing off again.
So Lu Qingqing chose to continue drinking the soup.
While drinking, I thought: "That's also a coincidence. There are so many flights and so many people, and we just met." With such thoughts, I couldn't stop the brakes.
She seemed to be walking on a tightrope.
On the one hand, there is a bright future, and on the other hand, there is a gentle figure serving her soup.
Lu Qingqing took a bite of the mushroom viciously, thinking: "Children make choices, I'm an adult, I..."
Still can't have it all.
The aroma of food soon came from the kitchen.
Lin Lang considered Lu Qingqing's taste, and also thought that Lu Qingqing was going to sleep after a busy day, and he probably didn't want to eat too greasy dishes, so the dishes that were served at the end didn't have strong colors.Lu Qingqing tasted them one by one, and fainted from happiness.
Lu Qingqing chirped: "It's so delicious!"
Lin Lang smiled and said, "Do you want to take a shower or take a bath later?"
With tears in her eyes, Lu Qingqing said, "Wow, can I still choose? By the way, I just came here, and I didn't bring a change of clothes..." She was suddenly embarrassed.
Lin Lang said: "There are disposable washing tools in the guest room, and there are new pajamas. You can use mine for skin care products. For tomorrow," she hesitated, "Just wear what you are wearing today. After washing, I can do it."
Lu Qingqing sighed sincerely: "Lang Lang, you are so kind."
Lin Lang said, "Well, let's eat quickly."
Usually, she is used to eating quickly in the nanny's car, but now at the dining table, Lu Qingqing intentionally ate slowly.After all, she is greedy, and she is reluctant to bear the lights.
Lin Lang didn't urge her, but asked, "Have you chosen? Take a bath or shower."
Lu Qingqing struggled: "I want to take a bath, but I also want to sleep more."
Lin Lang sighed, "Why are you like a child?"
Lu Qingqing muttered: "I'm not a child." Although the fans made a bunch of emoticons of "Qingqing was wrong" and "Mom forgive me", they put Lu Qingqing's face on the children's bodies.Lu Qingqing saw it for the first time and thought it was quite amusing.After seeing a lot later, I felt that fans really included all kinds of beings, a group of little girls who might not be her age, and wanted to be her mother.
Lin Lang said, "What time do you get up tomorrow morning?"
Lu Qingqing replied: "They will pick me up at eight o'clock." Tomorrow, I will be shooting the inside page of a magazine, and I still have half a day to be interviewed.If she lives in her own house, the time to get up may have to be pushed back an hour.The office of that magazine was too far away from her home, but it was close to Lin Lang's.
Lin Lang glanced at the time: "It's 10:30 now, you can soak for half an hour and apply a mask while soaking. I'll get you some water."
Lu Qingqing: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolanglanglanglangyou're so kind!"
Lin Lang smiled: "The bathtub has a massage function, you can experience it."
Lu Qingqing nodded, her heart pounding.
Under the warm light, Lin Lang looked at Lu Qingqing with gentle eyes.At this moment, Lu Qingqing thought of when they were on the crew of "Twins".It's the same kind of lighting, and it's also the kind of gentle eyes, Lang Lang——
Lin Lang said: "If you buy a house in the future, you can consider my place."
Lin Lang was indeed not in a hurry to sell the house, but the location is good, and Lu Qingqing would not suffer a lot if he rented it.Of course, it might not be appropriate to directly talk about renting. Lu Qingqing now lives in a place rented by a brokerage company for artists.
She chose curves to save the country, first let Lu Qingqing feel how comfortable it is to live here.
Lu Qingqing blinked twice: "...Langlang, are you selling?"
Lin Lang considered these two words and nodded hesitantly.
Lu Qingqing felt like crying again.

I love you (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～
Last night, my roommate went to bed early, and the sound of typing on the keyboard was a bit loud, which would disturb her, so I have a free day, sorry.
