Chapter 21 Night
After dinner, Chen Mo sent Jiang Congwen and Xu Hongdou to the downstairs of the community and drove away.
However, when Chen Mo saw Jiang Congwen and Xu Hongdou entering the residential area together, he always felt something strange, as if he was an outsider. It was obvious that he was the first to know the two of them, and then Xu Hongdou got to know Jiang Congwen.
It's like, two of my friends met through me, and then they became good friends?
Of course, Chen Mo knew that this illusion only came from seeing Xu Hongdou and Jiang Congwen returning to the same neighborhood.
No, it seems like they are still on the same floor of the same building.
Chen Mo shook his head and suppressed the strange feeling in his heart. Somehow, he suddenly wanted to move here as soon as possible.
Chen Mo didn't know why he had such thoughts. It seemed that it would be fine even if Jiang Congwen and Xu Hongdou became good friends.
When Jiang Congwen and Li Jinting first started dating, they were very much in love. Jiang Congwen had no time to pay attention to Chen Mo, and Chen Mo didn't think there was anything wrong.
Chen Mo thought about it carefully and felt that it might be because the sour plum juice he drank while eating hot pot just now was a bit intoxicating.
However, when Chen Mo thought of the song he just heard in his mind, he put this strange emotion behind him. The arrangement of this song is really awesome.
Chen Mo hummed a song, his fingers on the steering wheel couldn't help but dance lightly, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
Her eyelashes, curved mouth corners, smiled at me without warning.
Of course, Chen Mo didn't dare to tremble, he was driving and was afraid of accidents, he didn't even have a girlfriend!
As soon as he got home, Chen Mo saw his parents sitting on the sofa watching TV and chatting.
"Dad, mom."
"You're back. Have you eaten?" Fang Shuyun asked.
"I have eaten. I just ate outside with Congwen." Chen Mo said.
"What's the matter? Why are you so happy today?" Fang Shuyun asked curiously when she saw the smile on Chen Mo's face.
"Hmm? Is there?" Chen Mo was a little confused and touched his face with his hand.
"Of course. I heard you humming when you came in just now."
"Oh, by the way, I just got inspired and thought of a good melody. I have to record it down now."
"Dad, Mom, I'm going back to my room first." Chen Mo said hurriedly.
"Go ahead." Chen Huaisong waved his hand and said.
Looking at Chen Mo returning to the room, Fang Shuyun looked a little confused.
"Something's wrong!" Fang Shuyun said.
"What's wrong?" Chen Huaisong asked curiously.
"There's something wrong with my son." Fang Shuyun said with certainty.
"What's wrong? This is quite normal. Didn't he just suddenly get an inspiration a few days ago and then hurried back to his room?" Chen Huaisong said disapprovingly.
"You don't understand. As a mother and a teacher, how can I not know my own son?"
"I've seen that kind of ecstatic expression on his face many times in school," Fang Shuyun said confidently.
"Are you saying that your son is in love?" Chen Huaisong reacted and said.
"It's very likely. That makes sense why he suddenly wants to move out." Fang Shuyun felt that she had seen through the truth.
"My son wants to move out. Isn't it because you nag him all the time that he wants to move out because he is fed up with you?" Chen Huaisong couldn't help but laugh.
"What did you say?" Fang Shuyun frowned.
"I mean, my son is most likely in love." Chen Huaisong immediately changed his words.
"Wife, you have a pair of sharp eyes, and you have gained thirty years of experience in the industry. At a glance, nothing can be hidden from your eyes. Nothing can escape your eyes."
Chen Huaisong's family status was also exposed at this moment.
"Humph, if I hadn't urged you to do that, I wonder how long my son would have remained single."
"Yes, yes, yes. That's why our family can't live without you for a moment. Thank you for your hard work, my dear." Chen Huaisong nodded repeatedly.
"But isn't it a good thing for your son to be in love? You were always worried about him before, but you don't have to worry about him now, right?"
"Before, I was worried that he would know all the shit in the entertainment industry since he was young. Our son has been smart since he was young, and I was afraid that he would see too much and no longer believe in love between men and women." Fang Shuyun got angry when talking about this.
"It's you who said you wanted to cultivate his vision in advance and let him understand the ugly side of human nature."
"If he didn't know so much, would he have not talked about love until now?"
"Didn't you agree with it at the beginning? You said that there are so many beautiful girls and temptations in the entertainment industry, and you were afraid that he would be deceived. It would be good if he could see through this earlier." Chen Huaisong hadn't finished his words.
"Huh?!" Fang Shuyun interrupted with a frown.
"I mean, it's all my fault." Chen Huaisong changed the subject and summarized the final conclusion.
In the end, it was the man who took on everything, and Chen Huaisong sighed in his heart at his own greatness.
Chen Huaisong knew that even though Fang Shuyun was eager for Chen Mo to go out and have fun, if Chen Mo really dared to be a playboy who changed his girlfriend every month, Fang Shuyun would be the first to break Chen Mo's legs.
So men should just listen to what women say, but they should know what is going on.
"Actually, I think you may be overthinking it. It is said that parents are the best role models for their children. Our relationship has remained the same for thirty years. I have always been loyal to you. How could our son not believe in love?" Chen Huaisong put his arm around Fang Shuyun's shoulders and said softly.
"Don't flatter yourself." Fang Shuyun rolled his eyes.
"With a wife like me who is so beautiful, generous, gentle, considerate and understanding, how could you have any other thoughts?" Fang Shuyun asked back.
"That's absolutely impossible." Chen Huaisong immediately patted his chest and guaranteed.
Although Chen Huaisong felt that these words seemed to be only reflected in Fang Shuyun when he and Fang Shuyun had just started dating and were still in their honeymoon period.
As for after that period of infatuation, it becomes a matter of opinion.
"Okay, since your son has shown this sign, you should give him some time and don't do anything counterproductive." Chen Huaisong said softly.
"I know." Fang Shuyun nodded.
Just like she said before, she didn't want Chen Mo to get married and have children right away, she just wanted Chen Mo to take this life process seriously and not act as if it was dispensable.
On the other side, after returning home, Xu Hongdou removed her makeup, took a shower, changed into comfortable pajamas, and lay lazily on the bed. Her pair of white and slender legs were exposed to the air, which had a dizzying effect. Her calves were shaking gently up and down.
Unfortunately, no one has been able to enjoy this beautiful scenery in her boudoir.
Oh, no, Chen Nanxing, who occasionally comes here to stay for a night, might be able to enjoy this beautiful scenery.
At this time, Xu Hongdou was also sharing today's news with her best friend Chen Nanxing.
Xu Hongdou took a photo of Lin Nanxi's autographed photo album and sent it to Chen Nanxing.
Chen Nanxing: Ahhhh!
Chen Nanxing: Tell me quickly, how did you get it?
Xu Hongdou: Didn’t you ask for it from someone in the group yesterday? I just happened to meet him today and he gave it to me.
Chen Nanxing: Did your new neighbor give it to you?
Xu Hongdou: Chen Mo gave it to me, but he hasn’t moved in yet. My current neighbor is still Jiang Congwen.
Chen Nanxing: Haha, exactly the same.
Chen Nanxing: I just said it casually, I didn’t expect him to take it so seriously. Our Hongdou is really charming!
Xu Hongdou: Didn’t you ask for it from others? Why am I the only one who is attractive?
Chen Nanxing: What I asked for was one card, but what I gave was a set!
Chen Nanxing: And you just asked for it yesterday, and they gave it to you today.
Xu Hongdou:? ? ?
Xu Hongdou: How do you know that they are not in a hurry to give it to you?
Chen Nanxing: Don’t play dumb.
Chen Nanxing: If it’s me who is in a hurry to give the money, they will ask me for my address and send it to me first.
Chen Nanxing: Some of the more sincere ones would even drive the car to deliver it to me personally.
Chen Nanxing: Instead of giving it to me through you.
Chen Nanxing: Also, yesterday I said in the group that I wanted an autographed photo, and people just said yes.
Chen Nanxing: As soon as you asked for it, they immediately said it was no problem.
Chen Nanxing: Let me tell you, there is a huge difference.
Xu Hongdou: It’s not as complicated as you think.
Xu Hongdou: [shakes head]
Xu Hongdou: Chen Mo said that, it was just that he happened to meet Lin Nanxi in the company today, and she didn’t have any ready-made ones, so he just gave her two sets of signed photos.
Xu Hongdou: Besides, I just happened to meet them on the road today, otherwise they wouldn’t have given it to me so quickly.
Chen Nanxing: [Suspicion]
Xu Hongdou: It’s impossible that someone deliberately waited for me to get off work and send me off, right?
Chen Nanxing: How is that impossible? Xu Hongdou: They didn’t even know where I worked before.
Xu Hongdou: Also, you know that my working time is not fixed. It depends on the weekly schedule.
Chen Nanxing: Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.
Xu Hongdou: Okay, okay, you’re getting more and more outrageous.
Xu Hongdou: [rolling eyes]
Xu Hongdou: By the way, I have good news for you.
Xu Hongdou: I have a ticket to Lin Nanxi’s concert.
Chen Nanxing: What!!
Chen Nanxing: Did you get the ticket?!
Xu Hongdou: Two.
Chen Nanxing: Ahhhh!
Chen Nanxing: This is impossible!
Chen Nanxing: Did you buy it from a scalper?
Xu Hongdou: No, I just happened to meet Chen Mo and Jiang Congwen today, and they wanted to ask me for a favor.
Xu Hongdou: He said that as a thank you gift, he would give me two front-row tickets to Lin Nanxi’s concert.
Xu Hongdou: I see they are from the same company as Lin Nanxi. They gave me the autographed photo as soon as they said they would. They shouldn’t be the ones to cheat me.
Chen Nanxing: How can I help you?
Xu Hongdou: They wanted to shoot a 3 or 4 minute video to promote the new song, similar to a MV.
Chen Nanxing: Are you asked to play the female lead?
Xu Hongdou: Yes.
Chen Nanxing: Who will play the male lead?
Xu Hongdou: Chen Mo.
Chen Nanxing: Look, look! ! !
Chen Nanxing: I told you that she was interested in you, but you didn’t believe it!!
Chen Nanxing: Isn’t this obvious enough? !
Xu Hongdou: You are here again
Xu Hongdou: [Speechless]
Chen Nanxing: Really, please believe me. Based on my many years of experience as your best friend, I am absolutely right.
Chen Nanxing: When I was in school, all the guys who wanted to pursue you bribed me.
Chen Nanxing: I have received so many small favors because of this.
Chen Nanxing: [Proud]
Xu Hongdou: How dare you say that!
Chen Nanxing: Hey! Don’t wrongly accuse me. I drank the milk tea they gave me and accepted the benefits, but I didn’t do anything for them!
Chen Nanxing: We are close friends, how can you buy me off with that little stuff?!
Xu Hongdou: At least you have a conscience.
Chen Nanxing: You have to pay more!
Xu Hongdou:
Chen Nanxing: Just relying on autographed photos is definitely not enough like now.
Chen Nanxing: But if I want to add concert tickets to the price, I’ll have to think carefully about it.
Xu Hongdou: Concert tickets are the reward for my hard work!!
Xu Hongdou: It’s not for free!!
Xu Hongdou: [Angry to death]
Chen Nanxing: Oh, yes!
Chen Nanxing: Then I can’t consider it.
Chen Nanxing: They have to pay more!
Xu Hongdou:
Chen Nanxing: Hongdou, thank you for your hard work. In order to fulfill our promise, you have to sacrifice your looks.
Xu Hongdou: Chen Nanxing!!
Xu Hongdou: It seems I have to reconsider who should accompany me to the concert.
Chen Nanxing: No, you won’t. I’m your only friend, who else can you look for?
Xu Hongdou:
Xu Hongdou: Then I’ll go and see it myself, and sell the other one for money.
Chen Nanxing: No, no, no, my dear Hongdou, I was wrong, I was wrong.
Chen Nanxing: I shouldn’t let you down.
Xu Hongdou: It’s a good intention!
Xu Hongdou: What kind of words are you using?
Chen Nanxing: Such lewd and ferocious words.
Chen Nanxing: [Innocence]
Xu Hongdou:
Chen Nanxing: Okay, okay, no more joking.
Chen Nanxing: So, is your MV serious?
Xu Hongdou:
Xu Hongdou: I will spray you to death with a mouthful of salt soda!
Chen Nanxing: Hey, seriously, what do you think of Chen Mo?
Xu Hongdou: What?
Chen Nanxing: Are you pretending to be stupid in front of me?
Chen Nanxing: Of course we are a couple.
Xu Hongdou: Please, we have only met a few times.
Chen Nanxing: We are both grown up, so when we meet the right person, we have to seize the opportunity.
Chen Nanxing: Chen Mo is a good choice, he’s handsome, and if he moves next door to you, you two will be close to each other, so you can really consider it.
Xu Hongdou: Let’s talk about it later. We still don’t understand.
Chen Nanxing: Then you just observe it for a while.
Chen Nanxing: If you really think it’s suitable, just take it.
Xu Hongdou: Let’s wait and see.
Chen Nanxing: Let me tell you, don’t just rely on your beauty and wait for others to take the initiative.
Chen Nanxing: Happiness cannot be waited for, you have to actively strive for it.
Xu Hongdou: I know~~
Chen Nanxing: When will you shoot?
Xu Hongdou: The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow I will rest.
Chen Nanxing: It’s a rare day off for you, so forget it if it’s too tiring.
Chen Nanxing: We don’t have to go to the concert.
Xu Hongdou: Don’t worry, I know what to do.
Chen Nanxing: Okay, then you should go to bed early.
Xu Hongdou: You too, good night.
"Okay, that's all for today. Have a great night, everyone. See you tomorrow."
In 1102 next door, Jiang Congwen just finished today’s live broadcast.
"Huh~~" Jiang Congwen let out a long breath and patted his face which was a little stiff from smiling.
After the bustle of the night, the backlash of loneliness always comes particularly suddenly and fiercely. Jiang Congwen sits alone in front of the computer quietly, always feeling empty in his heart.
The night spent alone will inevitably feel long, especially when you are used to being with someone else.
Normally, someone would get him his clothes at this time and urge him to take a shower quickly.
Then she would ask him if he was hungry and wanted to eat something.
Finally, she reminded him to remember to brush his teeth before going to bed.
She was like an old woman, even though she was obviously a few years younger than him. Thinking of this, Jiang Congwen couldn't help laughing, but after laughing for a while, he couldn't laugh anymore.
Jiang Congwen dragged his tired body to take a shower. After coming out of the shower, he wanted to eat something. As soon as he tore open the transparent package of instant noodles, he felt that he had no appetite, even though he was obviously very hungry.
In the end, Jiang Congwen still didn't eat anything. He fell on the bed in the room and fell into a drowsy sleep.
He still forgot to brush his teeth.
