Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

After questioning loudly, Zhong Xiaoqin took out her broken cell phone and threw it on the sofa.

Chen Yu glanced at her phone, then frowned and explained: "I didn't know your phone was broken, but although there is a problem with this door lock, didn't I tell you?

You need to be clever to open this door. Just lock it and lift it up. I thought you knew everything, so I didn't change it. Why are you yelling at me?

"You think, you think, everything is just what you think!"

Hearing Chen Yu say this, Zhong Xiaoqin refuted him twice and became even more angry: "Chen Yu, have you ever taken what I said to heart?

Your mind is full of your broken fish. You said you would celebrate my birthday with me today, but I ended up sitting there like a fool waiting for them to close.

You're so good, you don't answer the phone, you don't reply to WeChat, why don't you tell me, what does it mean?"

"I'm busy, right? Something's going on at work, and my supervisor wants to talk to me. Shouldn't I just focus on my work first?"

"What are you busy with? What's so important that you're so busy? You don't care about your brother's affairs, and you don't care about your wife. Didn't the producer tell you not to edit the film? Did your supervisor talk to you about work all day and make you work overtime tonight?"

As Zhong Xiaoqin spoke, she walked towards the shoe rack, ready to change out of her high heels.

However, she accidentally noticed that the door was wide open, and quickly turned around to look at Chen Yu and said, "You didn't close the door?"

Hearing this, Chen Yu turned around to look at Zhong Xiaoqin, walked towards the door and said uncertainly: "No, it should be closed, right?"

"Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu..."

Without having time to pay attention to Chen Yu, Zhong Xiaoqin hurriedly looked for her cat. She called the cat's name while searching frantically. When she couldn't find it in the house, she rushed out.

Seeing this, Chen Yu hurriedly chased after them, but it was raining outside. Although it was much lighter, the two of them still couldn't find them after shouting for a long time, so they had no choice but to return home.

At this moment, looking at Chen Yu who didn't seem to care much, Zhong Xiaoqin collapsed and shouted: "Chen Yu, today is my birthday. I'm celebrating my birthday, why are you doing this to me?"

"What did I do to you? Zhong Xiaoqin, stop being unreasonable. I just didn't notice the door. Is that a big deal?"

"Yes, if you don't pay attention to the door, the cat, or me, what else do you care about in this house? I really don't understand why someone like you would get married."

"Why should I get married?"

Looking at the hysterical Zhong Xiaoqin, Chen Yu said with an annoyed expression: "You asked me why I wanted to get married, then I will tell you, Zhong Xiaoqin, when we first met on a blind date, I thought you were a very gentle and considerate girl. Your family is from here, and you are down-to-earth, unlike our family which is a mess, so I agreed.

To put it bluntly, I got married to have an easy life and be able to live a stable life, but what happens now?

Zhong Xiaoqin felt a chill in her heart when she heard his words. She had never thought that this was the reason why Chen Yu was with her, so she asked with wide eyes:

"Chen Yu, are you marrying me just to have an easy life and worry-free?"

"So what? Is there anything wrong with that? They say marriage is a safe haven. Who doesn't get married and start a family to live a stable life?

Could it be that it's really all for that illusory love? That's all imaginary, just a fantasy of a love-sick brain! "

"Chen Yu, you're talking nonsense. If you all want to take shelter, who's going to be your harbor? You can be proactive at work, and you didn't feel tired even after being stationed in Hoh Xil for two months. You fought bravely for your trouble-making brother, but when you come home to me, you become as stagnant as a pool of water. Why is that?

Ever since the child passed away, I have been suffering from insomnia every day, but you sleep like a dead pig and snore. I can only sleep with earplugs. Have you ever cared about me?

You want to live an easy and stable life. Since we got married, you pushed your younger brother to me, and I didn't get any good results from taking care of him. You do feel relaxed, but I am the one who suffers. Don't I want to live an easy life too?

And those lousy fish tanks of yours, they buzz all the time, making such a fuss. I was wondering why you didn't care about my opinion at all. So you married me because my family is stable and it has nothing to do with me, so you don't care, right? "

When Zhong Xiaoqin finished speaking, Chen Yu also realized that he had just said something wrong, so he avoided the emotional matter and changed the subject:

"Zhong Xiaoqin, if this is as serious as you say, you should go see a doctor. Why are you picking on me? I think you're just trying to start a quarrel!"

"I want to quarrel, right? I'm looking for trouble, right? I'm sick, right?"

Hearing Chen Yu say this, Zhong Xiaoqin's emotions completely exploded. She roared and rushed to Chen Yu's favorite fish tank, picked up a small scoop net, scooped out the few fish swimming in it, and threw them on the floor.

Seeing his beloved fish thrown to the floor, Chen Yu angrily pushed Zhong Xiaoqin away and shouted:

"Zhong Xiaoqin, are you crazy? Why are you taking your anger out on the fish?"

Meeting this man before, at this moment, what he cares about most is the fish. Zhong Xiaoqin said disappointedly and disheartenedly:

"Chen Yu, since you never care about me, I can't bear this kind of life anymore. Let's get a divorce!"

After hearing what Zhong Xiaoqin said and looking at the fish in his hand, Chen Yu angrily walked back to the bedroom, then took out the marriage certificate and threw it at her, saying:

"Okay, see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock. Whoever doesn't go is a grandson!"

Looking at Chen Yu with a determined look on his face, Zhong Xiaoqin took one last look at him, turned around and left the house, walking out of the community in the rain.

...............

When Zhong Xiaoqin was quarreling at home, Han Tao's car had just stopped at the gate of the community, and he brought herself and Wang Manni with him to give them gifts.

Originally, Wang Manni planned to deliver it yesterday, but Han Tao was too busy yesterday and didn't make it in time. He only came back today because of Zhu Suosuo's matter, so it was delayed until now.

However, Wang Manni had a thank-you party today, and she was also in the hospital with an injured client. So after knowing that Han Tao had returned to Shanghai, she asked him to come and send her off. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate and impolite to wait until tomorrow's birthday to send her a gift.

But when Han Tao arrived at the door, he found that he couldn't get through to Zhong Xiaoqin on the phone, so he planned to get out of the car and go in. But as soon as he entered the community with an umbrella, he saw a big orange cat hiding under a car and meowing.

Thinking it looked like Zhong Xiaoqin's Pikachu, Han Tao called out "Pikachu" twice. Seeing the orange cat meow in response and run towards him, Han Tao picked it up and held it in his arms to keep it warm.

Thinking of Pikachu running away and the plot of Zhong Xiaoqin's divorce, Han Tao stopped and thought it was not appropriate for him to go up alone at this time, so he returned to the car with Pikachu in his arms.

...............

Chapter 508 Don’t want to go home

Accompanied by lightning and thunder, the rain was getting heavier. Zhong Xiaoqin, who was soaked all over, hugged her arms with her hands and was shivering with cold. However, compared to the cold wind and rain, her heart was even colder.

She had already walked to the gate of the community and onto the street, but Chen Yu did not catch up with her. Now she felt extremely wronged and disappointed, and her last bit of hope was shattered.

The most important thing is that I already have a home and can't go back, my mobile phone was broken, and I didn't take my bag because I was in a hurry, so I didn't even have a bank card, let alone cash.

For a moment, Zhong Xiaoqin didn't know what to do. She didn't know how to explain herself when she returned to her parents' home, and she was also worried that her parents would be worried.

As for her best friends Gu Jia and Wang Manni, she didn't want to go either. She felt it was too much of a failure and too embarrassing, so she walked out of the community in a daze, brushing past the people who were hurrying at the door. Finally, she couldn't help but squatted down and cried.

At this time, the door of a car parked in front of her opened. Zhong Xiaoqin looked up blankly, the rain wet her eyes. A blurry figure got out of the car, then held up an umbrella and came to her side, blocking all the rain outside.

"Xiaoqin, what's wrong with you?"

As Han Tao spoke, he squatted down, took off his jacket and put it on her, saying:

"It's raining so hard, why don't you go home and get wet at the door? And the phone keeps getting disconnected?"

"Han Tao, why are you here?"

It seems that the person is Han Tao, Zhong Xiaoqin asked in confusion.

Seeing Zhong Xiaoqin in such a state of disarray and shivering, Han Tao pulled her up and said, "Xiaoqin, if you have anything to say, I'll take you home and we'll talk later. Otherwise, you'll be soaked through, and it would be bad if you get frozen!"

"No, Han Tao, I won't go back. I don't have a home anymore!"

Hearing the word "go home", Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head immediately, and then tears flowed down again uncontrollably.

Seeing her big reaction, Han Tao pulled her to the side of the car, opened the door, and continued:

"Then I'll take you back to your parents. You can't just sit out in the rain like this!"

Zhong Xiaoqin shook her head again: "No, I won't go back to my parents either. My father has always had a bad heart. If he saw me like this, he would be worried."

"I've just taken over two new apartments in the nearby Riverside Building. One of them is still vacant, and I recently hired someone to clean it out. It's fully stocked. Since you don't want to go home, why don't you stay there for the night?"

After saying that, Han Tao pushed Zhong Xiaoqin into the car, then got in as well and told the driver to drive to the Riverside Building.

Zhong Xiaoqin was a little reluctant at first, but when she saw the big orange cat in the car, she picked it up and checked it out, saying, "Pikachu, it's Pikachu!"

"I saw it at the entrance of your community, soaking wet, so I took it into the car to dry it off. I was planning to take it back to you, but before I could get there, I saw you coming out in the rain."

Han Tao looked at Zhong Xiaoqin who gradually calmed down, handed her a tissue, and explained gently.

"Thanks……"

Seeing Zhong Xiaoqin murmuring her thanks, Han Tao didn't say anything else. Instead, he turned up the air conditioner and silently accompanied her to the Riverside Building.

There were two properties that the system rewarded when Yuan Yuan's fate was changed. Both were on the fourth floor of the Riverside Building, one of which was 85 square meters and the other was 129 square meters.

Yuan Yuan lived in the 85-square-meter apartment for a while when she moved out of Binjiang Yipin. Later, after she left her job to study, it became vacant.

However, Han Tao didn't need the rent, so no one had lived there. However, both houses were cleaned regularly, and now they came in handy.

Soon the car stopped downstairs. Han Tao took Zhong Xiaoqin straight to the fourth floor, then opened a door, turned on the light and went in.

Seeing her standing in the living room in a daze, Han Tao took Pikachu and put it on the balcony, then went to the bathroom to get a bath towel and handed it to her.

"Xiaoqin, go take a hot bath first to avoid catching a cold. I'm going downstairs to get some clothes and will be back soon. Got it?"

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded blankly, Han Tao reluctantly sent her to the bathroom, turned on the hot water and backed out.

He went downstairs to get clothes. Although he didn't have any underwear, he had a skirt that Wang Manni gave her, which she could change into tomorrow.

In addition, Han Tao also bought some things at the supermarket downstairs. When he returned to the house, Zhong Xiaoqin had not finished washing. Knowing that she had been caught in the rain, Han Tao put the clothes away and walked towards the kitchen.

………………

Time passed, and when Han Tao finished cooking the ginger soup and two plates of celery dumplings, Zhong Xiaoqin called out in the bathroom in a somewhat awkward voice:

"Han Tao, are you back?"

"came back!"

Knowing that Zhong Xiaoqin was embarrassed to come out wrapped in a towel after taking a shower, he went back to the bedroom to get a white bathrobe, walked to the bathroom door, knocked twice and said:

"Xiaoqin, open the door for a moment. I'll hand you the clothes!"

Zhong Xiaoqin inside heard the answer and said embarrassedly: "Then...then turn your head away!"

"I've hung the bathrobe by the door. Now go to the kitchen and get it yourself."

"Okay, thank you!"

Zhong Xiaoqin secretly opened a gap and took a look. Seeing Han Tao walking away with his back to her, she breathed a sigh of relief, then leaned out half of her body to pick up the bathrobe at the door, and then shrank back like a frightened deer.

Han Tao smiled and brought out the ginger soup and dumplings from the kitchen one after another and placed them on the table in the dining room. Then he laid out the bowls, chopsticks and newly bought vinegar.

When Zhong Xiaoqin came out wearing a bathrobe, Han Tao looked up at her. He was surprised to see that she had a nice figure and her skin was even better.

I don’t know if it’s because she just took a shower, but her exposed neck and collarbone looked white and tender, and half of her long, snow-white, straight and taut legs were also exposed to the air.

Seeing Han Tao looking at her, Zhong Xiaoqin pressed her exposed legs together tightly, grabbed her collar with one hand, and pulled the hem of her bathrobe with the other, blushing as she said:

"Han Tao, do you have pajamas here? The kind with separate pants and tops?"

"No, I don't live here. I have basic things like bathrobes, but no pajamas or anything like that."

After saying that, Han Tao glanced at the shy Zhong Xiaoqin and stood up, saying, "Come and have something to eat first. I'll be leaving soon. Don't worry or feel embarrassed."

"Ok!"

Zhong Xiaoqin nodded and walked to the dining table. However, seeing that Han Tao not only cooked her favorite dumplings but also made ginger soup for her, her soft heart was touched. So she suddenly hugged Han Tao and choked up, "Han Tao...you...I...wuwuwu..."

When a billionaire does this, most girls probably can't resist it, let alone Zhong Xiaoqin. She is at her weakest right now and needs care and comfort the most.

But when she cried, Han Tao didn't know what to say for a while. The main reason was that she cried too suddenly, so he could only lend her his shoulder, and then reached out and patted her on the back lightly, letting Zhong Xiaoqin hold her in his arms. burst into tears.

…………

Chapter 509: Zhong Xiaoqin's Touch

After Zhong Xiaoqin finished telling about her bad experiences of the day while crying, she finally felt much better and her emotions gradually stabilized.

Seeing this, Han Tao patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, Xiaoqin, it's all in the past. Life always has its ups and downs, but after the storm comes a rainbow!"

Only then did Zhong Xiaoqin realize that she was in Han Tao's arms, so she took a step back with a flushed face and kept some distance.

Seeing that she didn't dare to look him in the eye, Han Tao reached out and pulled her to sit on the chair, then pointed at something on the table and said:

"Sit down and have something to eat. Manny said you love dumplings the most, but we're running out of time and the only ones left at the supermarket are celery-filled ones. I don't know if you like them.

Drink some of this ginger soup while it's still hot. You've been caught in the rain for most of the night, so you need to get rid of the cold. Otherwise, you'll easily catch a cold!"

"Um...thank you..."

Looking at the dumplings and ginger soup on the table, Zhong Xiaoqin nodded vigorously, then picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

But while eating, she was moved to tears. The tears dripped from the corners of her eyes into the hot soup, and finally she drank it all up.

Speaking of which, Zhong Xiaoqin didn't eat lunch or dinner either, so she was already starving, so she ate with great relish.

But thinking that today was her birthday, after eating a few bites, she couldn't help but look up at the clock in the living room. It was eleven fifteen, not yet twelve o'clock.

Seeing her unintentional action, Han Tao remembered that in the original plot, Zhong Xiaoqin seemed to have bought herself a small piece of cake, and then lit candles and made a wish.

So Han Tao immediately realized that Zhong Xiaoqin attached great importance to her 30th birthday, especially under today's circumstances.
