Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 425 orz-7
"Get up, get up!"

At five o'clock in the morning, Li Qin pushed Meng Bai beside her and called softly.

"What time is it? Why are you getting up so early?"

Meng Bai didn't even open his eyes, he muttered something casually, and then directly pulled the girl next to him into his arms: "It's not like we're getting married, let's go to sleep."

Li Qin's lips curved up, but she still suppressed her joy, leaning on his chest and whispering, "I have to put on makeup later. There are a lot of procedures for the wedding today. If you are slow, you will be late. Hurry up and get up."

"Oh, go ahead then." Meng Bai opened his eyes a little, "I'll sleep a little longer and come find you guys later."

"Aren't you going to put on makeup?"

"Girl, your man is already very eye-catching. If you dress him up a little more, I'm afraid people will misunderstand who the protagonist is today."

Li Qin rolled her eyes, but it was hard to refute. Even from an outsider's point of view, the groomsmen, including Zhang Ruoyun, were inferior to this guy in terms of appearance.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile. She leaned over and kissed the man on the face, then stood up and said, "Then I'll go put on makeup first, don't oversleep later."

"Go ahead." Meng Bai had already closed his eyes again and waved his hand in the air, "You don't get enough sleep every day, you deserve to have to put on makeup."

"..."

Li Qin: Sometimes I really hate this guy for having a mouth.

Because she was delayed for a while, when she arrived at the dressing room, Tang Yixin and the others were already there. Several makeup artists specially invited from China were busy, and several bridesmaids were also packing up on the other side.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Qinqin~~"

"What's the big deal? My best friend is only getting married once, so I have to make good arrangements for you."

"Hehe, I knew you were the best."

Tang Yixin held Li Qin's hand and smiled sweetly. She looked around and whispered, "Where's Teacher Meng? Is he up?"

"No, he's still sleeping." Li Qin's voice remained unchanged, not afraid of being heard at all, "He said he would not wear makeup, so as not to steal your man's limelight."

"Ha—no way!" Tang Yixin pouted.

"Yes, yes, your teacher Zhang looks the most handsome today." Li Qin said against her will, agreeing with her best friend.

Sure enough, Tang Yixin immediately became happy after hearing this, and pulled her to discuss her makeup.

They were busy until around seven o'clock, and the bridesmaids had already finished their makeup. Tang Yixin's makeup was more complicated, so it would take some time. Seeing that the girlfriends were still hungry, she told them to go eat something first.

Li Qin was a little worried that the guy hadn't woken up yet, so she took out her phone and sent a WeChat message.

Fortunately, the other party responded after a while.

Meng Bai: [I'm in the restaurant on the second floor. The bread and bacon here are pretty good. Come and try it.]

Humph, I was busy all morning with an empty stomach, but this guy was enjoying his breakfast leisurely.

Adele Manor used to be a castle, but now it has been transformed into a hotel. The second floor is a spacious restaurant with an extra-long dining table in the middle, similar to the one in Hogwarts in Harry Potter, and a circle of independent small tables around it. Various art paintings are hung on the walls on both sides, and on the other side there are tall and bright floor-to-ceiling windows.

Compared to a regular hotel restaurant, this place is more like an art gallery.

"Hmm, look over there...is that Mr. Meng? So handsome!"

Li Qin was looking at the scenery in the restaurant and searching for Meng Bai. Suddenly, she heard Shen Mengchen beside her exclaim in a low voice. She looked in the direction indicated by the other party and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Meng Bai was sitting at a small square table under the tall French windows at the edge of the restaurant not far away. He was wearing a well-cut black suit with a silver chain decoration on his chest, which eased the overall seriousness. He was wearing a pair of dark gold retro glasses, which matched the newspaper in front of him, making him look like a British gentleman.

Looking at Meng Bai, whose temperament was completely different from usual, Li Qin's heart couldn't help but tremble, and her face flushed a little.

Humph, this damn man looks pretty good after dressing up...

"Hello, Teacher Meng!"

Meng Bai looked up when he heard the voice and smiled at Song Qian and Shen Mengchen in front of him. Then, he saw Li Qin following behind him and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Teacher Li." He waved his hand.

Li Qin did not avoid being called, but walked over and sat down opposite Meng Bai.

Seeing this, Song and Shen tactfully sat aside. Then they gathered together and whispered, occasionally looking at the couple here.

"Is there any news in the newspaper?" Li Qin sat down and asked while looking at the newspaper in Meng Bai's hand.

"According to a report from Lubianshe on June 6, the famous Chinese film and television actress Ms. Li Qin recently visited Ireland, which aroused widespread discussion among the local people. It is reported that Ms. Li Qin visited the UK to attend her good friend's wedding..."

"W-w-what?"

Li Qin almost choked on the water in his mouth. He coughed and asked in surprise, "Are you sure you are reading the Irish newspaper?"

That’s not right. Even domestic newspapers would not report these things.

She snatched the newspaper from Meng Bai's hand and looked at the front page... Well, although she didn't quite understand it, it definitely had nothing to do with her.

"How would I know what's written?" Meng Bai said leisurely, "My English level is just enough for daily conversation, but who can understand this kind of local news?"

"So you were looking here for so long?"

"Oh, mainly because I think this design looks better."

"..."

Li Qin's breath was stuck in her chest. After a long while, she looked at him and said, "So, you added this pair of glasses today for the sake of styling?"

"Not really. The main reason is that most of the people here today are Xiao Tang's relatives and elders. As the witness, I have to help Lao Zhang to keep things going. Wearing glasses will make me look more stable." Meng Bai said.

Because of Zhang Ruoyun's messy family relationships, no elders came this time. A few groomsmen plus Meng Bai were the only people on his side.

Li Qin naturally knew about the gossip, and she was happy for her best friend in her heart - without her parents-in-law, her married life should be very happy.

Li Qin asked the waiter to order some breakfast and ate her food in small bites. Meng Bai sat opposite her and his eyes subconsciously fell on her.

The bridesmaid dress is a long green tube top dress. Although it is fluffy, it is tailor-made, so it does not feel bloated at all when worn on the body. Instead, it shows the girl's slender waist. The delicate skin looks particularly white against the background of the dress.

After looking it up and down, Meng Bai felt that this outfit was quite beautiful, except that the chest area was a little flat.

"What are you looking at?" Women are extremely sensitive to line of sight. Even though she was eating, Li Qin was able to immediately sense where the man's gaze was resting on her.

"Nothing." Meng Bai said, "This dress suits your skin tone."

"Really?" Li Qin looked down and thought, this guy has good taste.

Meng Bai breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't let the girl know what he was thinking.

Having said that, girls born in the 90s such as Li Qin and Li Yitong are quite average in this regard.

Compared with the elder sisters, she is not as good as Qin Lan and Wang Ou. Compared with the younger sisters, she is not as good as Bai Lu and Yang Chaoyue.

Meng Bai touched his chin. Isn't it said that this thing can be acquired through hard work? It turns out that I haven't developed it enough. I need to work harder in the future.
-
"…I hereby declare that Zhang Ruoyun and Tang Yixin are officially married as of today. I hope you can walk hand in hand and live a carefree life in the future."

In the fairy-tale castle banquet hall, Meng Bai stood on the stage as the witness and read the testimony speech aloud.

After stepping down from the stage, he sat down on a chair and said, "Phew - my work is finally finished."

Li Qin, who was standing by, handed him a bottle of water and said, "I thought you wrote a long article."

"The wedding speech is just a procedure." Meng Bai took a sip of water. "Besides, it's Mr. Zhang's wedding, and I can just play a supporting role. There's no need to make so many expressions."

"That's right." Li Qin nodded, then looked at the two people dancing hand in hand in the center of the stage, and said with longing: "How happy."

Meng Bai raised his eyebrows and pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "It's indeed very happy. I guess it would take them two or three days just to count the gifts."

Li Qin, whose atmosphere was ruined by this sentence, puffed her lips in dissatisfaction and patted him lightly.

Really, I knew this guy would play dumb at a time like this.

Because the wedding was held in a foreign country, not everyone could come even if the expenses were covered, so the scale of Zhang Ruoyun's wedding was not large.

However, having fewer people has its advantages. First, there is a need for so many red tape. Second, there are more friends of the same age, and the fun is more in line with the style of young people.

The main ceremony at noon was attended by elders, so the atmosphere was a bit serious. After everyone rested for an afternoon to recover, the atmosphere immediately became lively during the dinner and the dance party afterwards.

The noise lasted until after eleven o'clock in the evening, until everyone was exhausted and finally went home.

After returning to the room, Meng Bai waited for Li Qin to remove her makeup and clean up, and then he went to wash up. When he came out of the bathroom, he didn't see anyone in the room at first glance. He looked around and found that Li Qin was standing on the terrace of the room, looking at the night outside.

"What's wrong?" Meng Bai walked over and put his arm around her shoulders. "It's not even 12 o'clock yet, why are you being so emo?"

"Nothing." Li Qin shook her head and leaned on him, "I just suddenly felt empty."

"Ah, it's normal, post-party syndrome." Meng Bai looked at her puzzled look and explained, "Many people always feel lonely after attending a particularly lively party or event. It's called post-party syndrome."

Li Qin thought for a moment and said, "That's part of the reason. The other half is that after watching Yi Xin get married today, I suddenly felt that I might not be able to hang out with her all the time in the future."

"What's the logic?" Meng Bai raised his eyebrows. "Old Zhang wouldn't lock her up at home. Just look for her if you need to."

"That's different." Li Qin shook her head. "It was okay to go out and play before, but I have a lot of concerns in the future. How should I put it? I feel that she will definitely focus more on the family in the future. By the way, did you know that Yi Xin is pregnant?"

"Really?" Meng Bai really didn't know. "Wow, Lao Zhang is really efficient."

Well, I have to continue to strengthen my safety measures in the future. If someone dies, it will be troublesome.

Li Qin naturally didn't know about the man's divergent thinking and thought he was surprised: "Yes, she just found out these few days. Now that we have a family and a child, it feels like we will be further and further apart in the future."

"So this is what you're sad about."

Meng Bai took a step back and hugged Li Qin from behind: "Teacher Li, do you know the distance between our earth and the moon?"

Li Qin looked up at the moon in the sky and shook her head: "I don't know, it must be several hundred thousand meters."

"According to the average value, it is about 46 kilometers." He then asked, "Do you know the distance between the Earth and the Moon when it was just formed billion years ago?"

"I don't know, probably about the same."

"It's half less than it is now, about 100,000 kilometers." Meng Bai said: "Because of the tidal effect, the rotation of the earth has been slowing down, and the gravitational force between the earth and the moon is also decreasing, and the distance is constantly increasing. According to current calculations, the moon moves away from the earth by an average of four centimeters every year."

"In other words, we have already embarked on a long and distant separation since 46 billion years ago."

Li Qin listened to Meng Bai's words behind her and said slowly: "What about us? Will we be separated one day?"

"Of course, but it doesn't matter."

Meng Bai's tone was deep and long: "In fact, separation is not that scary. After 750,000 hours, we will be oxidized into wind, and become two adjacent hops on the same glass of beer, or two grains of dust cuddling under a street lamp."

"On the scale of the universe, we are actually very close. The atoms on Earth will not annihilate, and we will eventually meet again."

"..."

Li Qin listened quietly, feeling the peaceful atmosphere.

After a long while, she sniffed and turned to look at Meng Bai: "Okay, Mr. Meng, this "The Wandering Earth" was really worth filming. Now, when we talk about love, it has risen to the scale of the universe."

"After you've solved the problem of food and clothing, you should always look up at the starry sky." Meng Bai smiled, "Okay, girl, you're done being emo, come in quickly, you won't feel cold either."

Meng Bai embraced Li Qin into the house and immediately saw the gift box of souvenirs on the table in the room.

"I suddenly remembered..." Meng Bai grinned, "Do you know the name of the bottle of perfume that Lao Zhang and his friends gave as a gift?"

"I forgot to ask." Li Qin was curious, "What's your name?"

"Morning After, which can be translated into Chinese as 'the morning after'."

"This……"

It sounds like something pornographic.

"Yes, that's what you mean. They've said so, so we can't let them down."

"Um……"
