Chapter 3896 Let’s Talk if You Can Persist
Julie talked for a long time, and Yan Yan finally figured out the whole story.
In the past two days, a video has become popular all over the Internet. The content is that a woman saves another woman from several men.
What originally moved everyone was this woman's courage.
Later, someone recognized that the woman who rescued people turned out to be the retired actress Yan Yan!
"Sister Yan, haven't you noticed at all that your number of followers on a certain blog has exceeded 10 million!" Julie said excitedly on the other end of the phone.
With more than 10 million fans and no zombie fans, this is enough data to rank among the traffic.
Yan Yan remembered that the video Julie mentioned should be the day she saved Aunt Li at the side entrance of the mall.
She didn't notice at all that someone else took the video.
"Well...it's a little late to gain popularity." Yan Yan smiled. Compared with Julie's excitement, she was much calmer.
"Sister Yan, my phone number is about to explode!" Julie complained happily, "At least twenty media have requested to do exclusive interviews with you, and the film crew is looking for you..."
What Julie meant was that with such a great opportunity, should she consider making a comeback?
Yan Yan was slightly stunned, "I haven't considered this."
Julie wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Yan Yan, "Julie, if the media comes to you again, please reply to me. I don't want to be disturbed, thank you."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
He raised his head and saw Cheng Yiming looking at her thoughtfully.
Meeting her eyes, he looked away.
He must have heard what was going on, but he said nothing more.
Guess he knows what's appropriate.
She thought the incident was over, but two days later in the morning, Julie knocked on her door.
"Sister Yan, look at this, does it look good?" Julie opened a beautifully packaged box and took out a pink fur coat.
"Yesterday, a brand owner brought two pieces over to take pictures. This one is so beautiful. I think it suits you especially." As she said that, Julie wrapped the coat around her body.
It is indeed beautiful, as bright as cherry blossoms.
Yan Yan smiled half-heartedly, her beautiful eyes bright, "You came here to give me a coat, right?"
Then he asked: "Tell me, how many media outlets have called you?"
Julie shook her head violently: "It's really not about the exclusive interview. I helped you push for the interview. I came today because of something big! Something important!"
She took out a beautiful red envelope from her bag and presented it with both hands.
Yan Yan saw the "flying bird" logo on the envelope at a glance.
Soaring Award, the highest domestic film award!
Awards are given every two years!
Yan Yan's heart skipped a beat and she couldn't help but take the envelope and open it to read.
Yes.
She was right.
She was nominated for Best Actress!
It’s the movie I shot before I retired!
After the movie was released, objectively speaking, the box office performance was quite satisfactory.
But her performance was well received by the industry, and some film critics once predicted that her performance would be enough to win a trophy.
Unexpectedly, she was actually nominated!
"...More than a dozen dress brands have already offered sponsorship, as well as jewelry. The one with the highest reputation in the country..."
Yan Yan quietly watched Julie talking excitedly and didn't have the heart to interrupt.
After Julie finished speaking, she said: "Julie, please stop working. I don't want to attend the award ceremony."
Julie's eyes widened in shock.
She never expected that Yan Yan would not go.
How many people have been coveting this ticket!
"Sister Yan, you worked so hard on filming just to have this day?" Julie didn't understand.
Yan Yan couldn't tell Julie that now, she could no longer happily stand on such an occasion and accept everyone's blessings.
She had lost so many precious things, how could she still smile and welcome the gifts life gave her?
"I'm sorry, Julie," she shook her head, "Let the crew handle it."
Julie left, with a sad mood.
Yan Yan stood in front of the window and watched her leave, feeling equally sad.
How things got to this point little by little, Yan Yan didn't understand.
Perhaps, from the moment she fell in love with Cheng Yiming, everything was out of her control.
She bowed her head and walked forward, closing the door gently.
Mom and the nanny have already gone to city A, and Duoduo has been picked up by Aunt Li. She is alone in the huge house.
The extreme silence was like a monster with its mouth wide open, swallowing her up bit by bit.
She lay on the couch, letting herself be swallowed without any struggle.
Perhaps, she would feel at ease only if she spent the rest of her life like this.
The smell of fried steak woke her up from her dream.
She thought she was hungry, so she smelled the aroma of steak in her sleep. However, when she woke up completely, the aroma did not disappear but became stronger.
"Hiss~" followed by another sound of vegetables being put into the frying pan.
Only then did she realize that there was someone in the kitchen.
I ran over and saw that Cheng Yiming was surprisingly busy in the kitchen.
On the cooking table, the steak he had cooked was already placed.
Hearing the footsteps, he turned to look at her casually and said, "Take what's done and put it on the dining table."
The order was taken as a matter of course.
Yan Yan took a deep breath to suppress the rising anger, "No need to ask, it must be the key my mother gave you."
"Give me the key, what's wrong?" He kept flipping the spatula with his hand.
Yan Yan couldn't help but be speechless. She impulsively wanted to turn around and leave, but then she thought, this is her home, and even if someone wants to leave, it won't be her!
Dinner was put on the table one plate after another.
Cheng Yiming sat down and picked up the knife and fork, but saw Yan Yan staring at him with beautiful eyes.
He suddenly came closer and smiled with thin lips: "You look at me like this, are you dissatisfied with me eating the steak first?"
The joke in his smile was undisguised, "If you're not satisfied, I can eat you first."
"Cheng Yiming!" Yan Yan's pretty face flushed with anger, "Stop playing rogue with me!"
He clearly knew why she was angry!
"Give me the key, and don't come in on your own initiative next time!" She simply requested directly.
Cheng Yiming disagreed, "My woman lives here, isn't it normal for me to have the key here?"
Then he said: "Don't deny it, or I can prove it to you now."
"You..." Why hadn't she noticed that he was such a gangster before?
He continued to eat, his smiling eyes never moving away from her face.
Her face, which turns red due to anger, is also so beautiful, perfect for accompaniment to a meal.
Yan Yan was angry for a while, and gradually stopped being angry. Anyway, being angry was of no use to his shamelessness. Instead, it made her wrinkled with anger.
"Cheng Yiming, are you here to cook for me?" she asked.
Cheng Yiming nodded.
She picked up her knife and fork and began to eat the food on her plate.
"It tastes good," she nodded midway through the meal, "Come and cook me dinner every day starting tomorrow."
Cheng Yiming was stunned.
"What?" She raised her eyebrows, "You took the key just to cook me a meal?"
She was provoking and challenging him, deliberately giving him problems.
If he couldn't do that, she'd find a reason to shut him out.
And he had the opportunity to see her every day, why would he refuse?
"I'll come here every afternoon starting tomorrow," he looked at her, "but what's my reward?"
"We'll talk if you can hold on." Yan Yan looked away angrily.
She didn't expect that he actually agreed.
Let's wait and see how many days this young master of the Cheng family can last as a cook!
As it turned out, the situation was beyond her expectations.
For a week, he really came here every afternoon...and every time he came, he would park his car outside the hospital, get out of the car and enter the hospital with a bag of ingredients.
That day, the neighbor next door saw her out for a walk and asked gossipingly: "Miss Yan, why don't you invite us to a wedding banquet?"
"Wedding wine?"
"Stop pretending, we have all seen it. You have found a good man who wears a suit to work and carries a grocery basket to get off work. Such a man is hard to find." The neighbor covered his mouth and laughed, "And he is so handsome."
Yan Yan wiped her sweat. She originally wanted to make things difficult for Cheng Yiming, but instead she helped him become a good man!
She smiled perfunctorily and ran away towards the sea.
After running around the coastline, she felt much better and decided to continue fighting with him.
It doesn't matter what others say, what matters is that she has to persist until he can't bear it anymore.
She walked back slowly, and when she was about a hundred meters away from home, she saw a man looking furtively outside the courtyard.
As I got closer, I saw that the man was holding a camera.
Entertainment reporter?
Just in time, she walked to the door of the next door neighbor's house.
She knocked on the door and approached her neighbor's yard.
After a while, the neighbor came out and walked towards the reporter.
This female neighbor is in her fifties. She dresses very much like a square dance lady. She is enthusiastic and gossipy at first glance.
She stepped forward, talked to the reporter for about ten minutes, and returned to the courtyard with a hearty laugh.
After closing the courtyard door, she immediately changed her expression and suppressed her laughter.
"Miss Yan, that's a paparazzi!" She said to Yan Yan mysteriously: "He knew that we were neighbors and asked me a lot of questions about your private life."
Yan Yan has a headache. Can't she stay here?
"By the way, does your man own a company?" asked the neighbor's eldest sister.
Yan Yan was confused, why did she talk about this?
"He also asked me if I would endorse the products of your man's company?" said the neighbor's eldest sister. "I said you were no longer a star. He said you were famous again and many companies wanted to hire you to endorse. What else could he say about you? The commercial value is higher than before, and I don’t quite understand it..."
But Yan Yan understood, and her heart gradually sank.
During dinner that night, she asked Cheng Yiming: "Has your company developed any new products?"
"Why do you ask this suddenly?" Cheng Yiming was confused.
"I heard from Yuan'er that your company has started a jewelry business."
Cheng Yiming nodded calmly: "I dig diamond mines here and sell finished jewelry here to maximize profits."
"How about I endorse your jewelry?" she said.
Cheng Yiming was stunned for a moment, and then a heartfelt smile appeared in his handsome eyes: "Are you willing? Of course that's good..."
But she saw her face suddenly darken: "Have you been waiting for my words for several days?"
Then he said: "A week ago, when you stepped into this door, it was for this sentence, right?"
"Yan Yan..."
"You don't have to explain anything!" She sneered: "I should be grateful that you think highly of me. I was just nominated for a film award, but you deliberately wanted to ask me to be your spokesperson."
