At noon.
"Sorry, Ah Zhi, I'm late!" Mo Ruyu, who was dressed casually and still looked like a big boy, ran to the dining table while panting.
Ruan Zhi arrived earlier than him and quickly poured him a glass of water." It's fine. There's no rush."”
After saying that, she carefully sized up the other party. It was not much different from what she had imagined. Before this, they had also posted photos on Weibo. Therefore, although it was the first time they met in real life, the two of them seemed to be familiar with each other like old friends.
Time always passed very quickly when they were eating while chatting happily. Unknowingly, their meal actually lasted nearly two hours.
"Right, Senior Sister, I'm also preparing to go to Qing Ning to develop myself.”Mo Ruyu giggled as she spoke. She inadvertently glanced at the booth behind her from the corner of her eye and felt a little puzzled.
Not long after they sat down, the man at the table behind them had been sitting there.
The other tables had changed several times, but the man had no intention of leaving.
It was as if she was watching their conversation, making people's hair stand on end.
Ruan Zhi didn't notice his gaze and only smiled as she replied,""If you come to Qing Ning and there's anything I can help you with, just let me know.”
Mo Ruyu retracted her gaze and blinked mischievously.""Alright, then I won't be polite.”
"But why did you suddenly want to develop in Qing Ning? Didn't you say that C City is quite safe?" Ruan Zhi thought of what he had said in their casual conversation a few years ago and couldn't help but feel curious.
At this time, Mo Ruyu kept him in suspense. The corners of her lips curled up into an evil smile."Because…Qing Ning has something I want to fight for.”
"Hmm?"
"Haha." Mo Ruyu smiled and changed the topic." There was a dubbing company that offered me a very high salary. They wanted me to switch to a commercial dubbing company. I felt that it was good, so I agreed."”
"You want to switch to commercial distribution?" Ruan Zhi was a little surprised. She remembered that Mo Ruyu wasn't a professional voice actor. She had only entered the online voice acting industry as a hobby.
Because of his talent and his ever-changing voice, her teacher had wanted to pull him into the commercial matchmaking program, but Mo Ruyu had rejected it outright.
"You…If Old Yan finds out about this, he'll probably be devastated.”Ruan Zhi pretended to feel sorry for him. Old Yan was the teacher who had rejected Jade Rumo many times.
Mo Ruyu smiled." Ah Zhi, is your studio now affiliated with Qitai Culture Company?”
"Yes." Ruan Zhi couldn't help but look worried." I heard that the boss who was originally in contact with our studio was sent to the headquarters in Beijing. A new boss will be coming in soon. I don't know if he can adapt to his management style.”
Mo Ruyu also frowned.”
"I don't know." Ruan Zhi shrugged." In short, our boss said that if we can't adapt, the studio will go back to its previous state of being independent.”
Hearing this, Mo Ruyu laughed heartily.""Alright, if that day really comes, don't worry, I'll definitely support you.”
No one noticed that Qi Zhan, who was sitting behind them, had his eyes darken because of this conversation.
Then, he opened his email with his phone. His fingertips stopped on one of the names for a long time.
After a long time, he opened the message interface and sent a message on the screen. Then, he got up and left the restaurant.
……
Three days later.
After Ruan Zhi sent Ye Taotao and his wife off for their honeymoon, she was ready to return to Qing Ning.
It was the peak tourist season in C City, and the high-speed rail tickets were all sold out. Ruan Zhi had no choice but to buy the last bus ticket back to Qing Ning.
However, she did not expect that she would miss the last bus because of the traffic jam!!
Ruan Zhi dragged her suitcase through the crowded traffic and stood by the roadside in despair.
Since she couldn't make it in time, Ruan Zhi felt that there was no need to force it.
Just as she was about to call her boss to explain the reason, her boss called her-
"Hey, boss, today I…"
"Ah Zhi, when will you arrive in Qing Ning today? I'll send Xiao Qu to pick you up. You're only missing the last episode of the female lead for 'Qingsheng.'”The other party spilled out a long sentence before she could speak.
This made Ruan Zhi swallow the words that she had yet to say. She then replied resentfully,""Tomorrow, tomorrow morning. I might arrive at Qing Ning later tonight.”
"That's fine. You're tired from the car ride back. Go home and rest well tonight. You must report to the company at 7 am tomorrow morning! I want all the dry notes in the afternoon!”The boss once again emphasized the urgency of the matter.
"Ah, okay."
Ruan Zhi wiped away her cold sweat. She would probably need to grow wings to reach Qing Ning, which was 300 kilometers away, by 7 am tomorrow.
Given the current situation, Ruan Zhi could only hope that she would be able to get a ride back to Qing Ning, so she asked in the group chat.
Unfortunately, to her disappointment, there were too few of her high school classmates who wanted to develop their careers in Qing Ning. The few who did not manage to buy tickets were planning to take the bus back the next morning.
Ruan Zhi, why don't you come back with us tomorrow morning?]
[That's right, that's right. Tonight, our old classmates can gather for a mahjong table!]]
……
Ruan Zhi rejected the offer helplessly, indicating that she was really busy with work. Then, she sighed and looked at her wallet. She made her last decision with great heartache-to rent a car back to Qing Ning.
Suddenly, there was a notification on WeChat, and a new message came: [Ruan Zhi, are you hitchhiking back to Qing Ning?]
This message came from a schoolmate she had not contacted for a long time-Zhou Jinwen.
Zhou Jinwen was Qi Zhan's good friend. He was in the same class as Qi Zhan in high school and in the same school as them in university. He was also the only person who knew about the problem between her and Qi Zhan.
After Qi Zhan went abroad, she cut off contact with Zhou Jinwen.
Thus, Ruan Zhi was a little stunned when she saw his sudden greeting.
Before he could reply, the other party sent another message: [I'm going back to Qing Ning tonight too. Do you want to come along?]]
She hesitated for a moment before asking,"Your car?"]
My car! However, Zhong Xin from your class is also on the bus. Can we go together?] Zhou Jinwen's reply was also very quick.
Zhong Xin?
Ruan Zhi recalled what the other party had done at the wedding banquet and paused.[Sure.]
She was upright and had nothing to feel guilty about facing Zhong Xin.
Not long after she told them the location, a commercial vehicle stopped in front of her.
Ruan Zhi looked up and saw Zhou Jinwen sitting in the passenger seat. She frowned slightly.
The smile on her face slowly disappeared. She tilted her head and turned to look at the driver's seat, her expression stunned.
At this moment, Ruan Zhi felt her scalp go numb. Oh my god, wasn't it Zhou Jinwen's car? Why was Qi Zhan driving?!
"I'm sorry, Ruan Zhi. I drank a little tonight, and Ah Zhan happened to be going back to Qing Ning, so I asked him to drive for me!”
Perhaps he saw the shock on her face, Zhou Jinwen leaned against the car window and explained to her with a smile.
However, in Ruan Zhi's eyes, his smile was treacherous!
