After talking with Jing Liang at 9:00, before going home, Xingchen Qi was ready to go see Xuan Tao.

The number of family members visiting patients in the corridor gradually increased, he was afraid of being recognized, pulled up the collar of the sweater, covering half of the face. With a woolen cap, only a pair of slinky eyes are exposed outside.

When he walked into the ward, Xuan Tao was eating with the help of the nurses before it was time for the examination. When he saw Xingchen Qi enter, he put down his spoon and shouted happily, "Brother Xing Xing!"

"Huh," Xingchen Qi pulled down the collar, "I covered up like this, you can recognize me?"

"Your eyes are different from others, darker and brighter," Xuan Tao was probably tired, propping his elbows on the tabletop and resting his cheeks, "and no one can visit me but you and Ze Jia."

Every time I hear this kind of words, Xingchen Qi's heart is uncomfortable to die. At such a young age, she had to endure the death of her parents, serious illness, discrimination, suspension from school, being in a hospital room all day like a prison, and having an infusion needle buried in her hand all the time ......

Frankly speaking, Xuan Tao is much braver than the average child, to have persevered until now.

Xingchen Qi reached out and rubbed his little head, "We are enough, Ze Jia is so noisy, how can you stand another one?"

Xuan Tao's face immediately emerged with an inexplicable expression, seems to have suffered from it, just opened his mouth ready to complain -

The line of sight suddenly swept to a slim and slender figure.

The words came to his mouth and swallowed back into his stomach, Xuan Tao put down his hand on his cheek and sat up straight, "Sister."

Sister ......

Tao Tao is here?

Xingchen Qi back reflex-like stiffened, but only for a moment, then returned to a natural and relaxed state, back to the head.

Sure enough, Tao Tao was standing in the doorway wearing a simple coat and jeans with a plain face.

" Sister Tao Tao," Xingchen Qi made a surprised expression, "You're here, long time no see!"

Tao Tao's eyes widened slightly, seemingly also very surprised, " Xing Xing, long time no see. I heard from Professor Liang that you've been filming in J City recently, so I was planning to visit you sometime."

When she mentioned Jing Liang, her tone was quite normal, as if she was just an ordinary doctor-patient relationship or friend. Xingchen Qi didn't expect her to be this deep, raised her guard and replied with a smile, "The snow scene in J City is beautiful, if you come, I will take you to enjoy it."

Tao Tao exchanged a few pleasantries with him, then called the nurse to ask about Xuan Tao's condition. If Xingchen Qi didn't know what was going on, she would have been touched by her spirit of taking time out of her busy schedule to visit her brother.

Xuan Tao is expressionless, can not see happy or unhappy, or another word - numb.

Perhaps having experienced it too many times, he has become numb to it.

Xingchen Qi squeezed Xuan Tao's hand under the table, and Xuan Tao smiled at him reluctantly. He wanted to leave, but when he saw Xuan Tao's smile, he couldn't say the words to leave anyway.

"...... Sister Tao Tao," Xingchen Qi changed her mind, "recently Xuan Xiao is helping my brother with his tutoring, I want to get to know Xuan Xiao, do you mind?"

Tao Tao froze, "I don't mind, you ask. I don't have anything else to do, I just came to see Xuan Xiao."

Hearing that he was staying, Xuan Tao was in a much better mood. Xingchen Qi racked his brain to find a topic, finally after half an hour, Tao Tao did not drag him, picked up his bag and said, "I have activities later, I have to go first."

"Okay," Xingchen Qi said, "be safe."

"It's okay," Tao Tao got up, "By the way Xing Xing, there is something I want to remind you. I heard that you and Night have been hanging out a lot lately, so be careful not to get caught on camera by the paparazzi."

The two men are not close to each other, there are many good brothers in the entertainment industry who mix together every day. But Tao Tao's tone is ambiguous, and he also deliberately added the words "don't be photographed by the paparazzi".

Xingchen Qi even wondered if the hotel room had been monitored and his stay with Ye Bai had been exposed.

He was not sure how much Tao Tao grasped the truth, vaguely said, "Thanks for reminding me, I will pay attention in the future, either the media always say I rubbed the night brother hot, haha."

"Hmm."

Tao Tao responded with a meaningful voice and looked at Xingchen Qi, as if helpless, "I can't help it, the paparazzi are too scary nowadays. Lately I always feel like someone is following me, it's annoying."

Recently, I always feel that someone is following her ...... Xingchen Qi's heart "thumped".

--Did Tao Tao find out that she had a detective following her?

.

On the way back to J City, Xingchen Qi kept thinking about this matter.

The detective's professionalism should not be so easy to be found out. And Tao Tao as an actor, or the recent high popularity of the small flower, surrounded by a few waves of paparazzi is normal, there is no reason to suspect him.

Thinking about it, it could only be Tao Tao testing him. Fortunately, he was able to muddle through at that time, if he had messed up himself, he would have been caught by Tao Tao easily.

After arriving at the set, Dao Zhou arranged to shoot a few night scenes in order to catch up on the progress he had taken off. When he returned to the hotel after the scene, it was already more than ten o'clock, he searched carefully again, did not find any camera-like objects, and finally put his mind at ease and called Yunxiao Qi.

It seems that the electrician is the younger brother, Yunxiao Qi, who is ready to sleep, turns on the lamp, " Xing Xing, calling so late, in trouble?"

"No, brother," Xingchen Qi said, "it's because I've been having dreams lately about our family's property going wrong, and I'm not sure about it, so I want to talk to you."

"Nightmares should be caused by nervous exhaustion, tomorrow I will say hello to the director, you come back to rest and rest before going back to shooting."

"No, really not!" Xingchen Qi said urgently, "I always have some bad feeling, either brother you check the company, otherwise I am not sure in my heart."

Xingchen Qi knew the seriousness of the matter, his tone could not help but bring a few pleading. Yunxiao Qi's heart was breaking after hearing this, he immediately responded, "Okay, I will start checking from the head office tomorrow."

"Be careful to watch out for tampering villains, too." Xingchen Qi continued to instruct.

"Okay," Yunxiao Qi tone helpless and spoiled, "I will pay attention, do not worry."

Yunxiao Qi has always believed in the principle of "a promise is a promise", as long as the promise is made, it must be done. Xingchen Qi's shoulders, which had been tense, finally relaxed.

Then he continued to make requests, "Right brother, and Noah side. I remember when you set up a fund to buy Noah, can you give it to me? I want to learn how to invest, in case I don't want to shoot in the future, I can change my career to venture capital."

"You are ......" Yunxiao Qi was made by him do not know what to say, sighed, "you do not work for life I can afford you, do not make yourself so tired, hmm?"

"Brother you believe me, I can reconcile life and work." Xingchen Qi insisted.

"Okay ......"

Yunxiao Qi can only comply with him, "I will take 60% of the equity of Star Asset Management Fund and 40% of Qi's Group, when the integration is completed, I will transfer all shares to your personal name in the name of gift, and let you know after the transfer."

"Got it."

"The fund now holds only forty-five percent of Noah's shares, and the net is not deep enough for you to be careful when you use it."

"Mm-hmm, I will, thank you brother."

Yunxiao Qi told him not to stay up late and to come back to inherit the family property if he couldn't. Xingchen Qi promised again and again. Yunxiao Qi saw that his attitude was not very sincere, and hung up the phone with no choice. Xingchen Qi was very happy to achieve his goal, jumped into the bathtub and took a beautiful bath.

.

The weather is getting colder and colder, accompanied by one heavy snowfall after another, and soon it's December 31st.

On the streets, many young couples dressed up in bright clothes, discussing where to go for New Year's Eve as they walked along. In the village, which is not like the outside, you can also see aunties carrying meat and cooked food walking by from time to time, probably planning to cook a good meal to welcome the new year in the Gregorian calendar.

China people do not see this day as heavily as the Spring Festival, but after all, it is the New Year's Day holiday. After a few scenes in the morning, Dao Zhou raised his walkie-talkie, "Let's take a break and wait for Dajiang to buy something back, let's have hot pot!"

"That's good," Ruonan Yan in a police uniform quickly put on a blanket, "eat a hot pot to warm up to deal with the afternoon scene, I'm afraid my face froze, can not make expressions."

"The afternoon is not shot," Dao Zhou but said, "New Year's Day, the country has a legal holiday, I also give you a day off ...... Of course the main thing is that my girlfriend wants to find me together with the New Year, hehehe."

"Ch~~~"

Originally, when they heard that they were on vacation, they wanted to praise him. When they heard the reason, the set was filled with boos.

Only Xingchen Qi did not follow their "chatter".

Because Dao Zhou's words reminded him.

He hugged the hand warmer and rubbed himself next to Dao Zhou, "Guide, can I not eat the hot pot?"

Dao Zhou is an expert and instantly guessed what he meant, "What's the matter, want to go out?"

"Yes, want to cross the New Year with friends."

"...... Friends or objects ah?" Dao Zhou smiled ambiguously, "Okay, go ahead and come back early tomorrow."

Xingchen Qi was hot-faced by his words, and after promising to return on time, he hurriedly left.

Dao Zhou is right, he is indeed going to see the object.

Ye Bai was invited to participate in a certain station's New Year's Eve party, and he had to shoot a movie on his side, so he wasn't even thinking about the New Year's Eve. Now suddenly there is a holiday, do not take advantage of the loss.

And for every memorable day, he especially wants to spend it with Ye Bai.

During the holiday season, it is difficult to buy tickets, but the good thing is that Ye Bai's city is not far from J City. He finally asked Anran to find a car rental company and rented a 4WD SUV and prepared to drive there himself.

Anran worried not, after persuading several times did not persuade, can only choose to spread his hands with him happy.

So at two o'clock in the afternoon, Xingchen Qi ate something, with the sky snowflakes on the highway. The snowy highway traffic is slow, occasionally encounter a crash or broken down, to block a long period.

By the time we get to our destination, it's dark.

The New Year's Eve party was held at the city's stadium, and parking his car behind the stadium, he asked Lun A by phone, "Do you have an employee card?"

Lun A looked confused, "Where do you want the employee card?"

Xingchen Qi said the name of the party, Lun A froze for a few seconds, "Crap, crap, crap, crap, crap, crap, Xing Xing you're not coming, right?

"I'm here, outside the stadium now," Xingchen Qi whispered, "Don't tell your boss, I want to surprise him."

In the past, Lun A would have had to sell Xingchen Qi. After knowing their relationship, Lun A understands all kinds of small interests and secretly asked for Man Xiao's employee card to pick him up according to the location Xingchen Qi sent.

Participating in the station's party live stars super, in order not to be recognized, the two walked carefully, trembling.

Lun A was relieved to get to Ye Bai's lounge and pushed Xingchen Qi inside.

"Hey, you fuck-"

Before Lun A was finished, Xingchen Qi turned his head and saw a room full of frozen people and Ye Bai who was doing her hair makeup.

Ye Bai is singing a song from her new album today, and her style is on the trap side, so her makeup is very clean and she mainly relies on clothes and accessories to highlight her look.

But this man is a kind of magic, as long as he put on stage makeup, must be different from the usual two, from head to toe are emitting a strong control.

One cannot help but worship and submit.

Xingchen Qi swallowed back the rest of the words, eyes only him.

Ye Bai's surprise was no less than the staff's, reaching out to Man Xiao to stop for a moment and striding up to him, " Dao Zhou gave you guys a break?"

"Hmm."

"How did you get here, why didn't you tell me before you came."

"I drove here by myself. Dao Zhou announced the vacation announcement so suddenly that I didn't have time to tell you."

After saying that, Xingchen Qi lowered his eyes and waited for Ye Bai to lecture him. As a result, after waiting for more than ten seconds, no sound was heard.

When I looked upwards, I saw Ye Bai's serious expression, but his eyes were full of tenderness.

Ye Bai is not unaware of the journey from J City to this side, and is equally aware of how long it takes for a small fan to drive under a snowy sky to get there.

The company has made such a great effort just to cross the New Year with him, blame words, he could not say in any case.

"Lun A, go out and buy some hot drinks," Ye Bai instructed Lun A, then turned to Xingchen Qi, "Wait for me, I'm almost done."

"It's okay, you draw your own, I'll stay next to you." Xingchen Qi obediently sat beside him.

As Man Xiao continued her work, Xingchen Qi was particularly interested in everything about Ye Bai, watching Man Xiao's makeup and looking around.

Coldly, he noticed a box of cold medicine in the clutter and wondered, "Who has a cold?"

"Boss." Man Xiao answered immediately.

Ye Bai yelled, "Man Xiao!"

"Huh? Can't you say it?" Man Xiao immediately apologized, "I'll cut off the part just now, thanks."

Unfortunately, this is not a recording show, Xingchen Qi heard it word for word, two eyebrows suddenly gathered together, "When did you catch a cold."

Ye Bai did not say anything.

"The weather is cold and hot, freezing?" Xingchen Qi asks a follow-up question.

The first time I saw him, Ye Bai could only lower her voice, "I was infected by you the day before yesterday."

Recently, because of Tao Tao, Xingchen Qi has put this matter to the back of his mind. At this time was mentioned, he was ashamed, his ears suddenly reddened a large half.

Man Xiao close to the two, heard the conversation confused, " Xing Xing infected? Is to go to J City that time boss ...... No, how can you two be infected?"

Xingchen Qi thought: we two kissed mouth kissed countless times, not infectious only strange.

But he didn't dare say that, and muddled through, "Probably used the wrong water glass."

"Well," Ye Bai glanced at him, "the wrong toothbrush barrel, to be exact."

When he got the answer, Man Xiao was even more confused, wondering why those two had to use a toothbrush barrel when one was richer than the other.

And Xingchen Qi recalls the scene, shyly, rubbing her hands on her thighs.

Ye Bai was in an extremely happy mood and admired his shy little face for a while. Then his eyes slid down to see if his little fan had lost weight in the past two days.

Inadvertently, I saw that the two legs of the little fan were shaking in a small way.

This symptom Ye Bai have seen - novice driving for too long, two feet have been in a state of tension on the gas pedal and brake, and then relaxed, may be nervous shaking.

...... The feet are also swollen, Ye Bai sighed and leaned down to feel Xingchen Qi's ankles.

Sure enough, it's swollen.

His movement was so sudden that Xingchen Qi didn't have time to react before he was already up. Xingchen Qi's right foot rubbed the ground and admonished with his mouth: "Don't move your hands in front of everyone."

Ye Bai : "......"

Ye Bai ignored him.

At this time, Man Xiao finished his makeup, put down his brush and crossed his arms in satisfaction, "Night, go change your performance clothes."

Ye Bai "hmm", pointed to Xingchen Qi, "I need a helper, you come with me."

In order not to spoil the look, usually change clothes and then do hair, Xingchen Qi hurriedly followed him and went to the dressing room.

His heart is clear, Ye Bai actually do not need help. Ask him to go together, probably want to ...... The opportunity to make out and make out.

Xingchen Qi scratched his neck and had a billion itches.

As expected, once inside the dressing room, Ye Bai locked the door and ordered, "Sit."

Xingchen Qi obediently sat on the chair.

Ye Bai then ordered, "Take off your shoes."

"......" Xingchen Qi was shocked, "No, no, there are too many people here!"

People? More?

Ye Bai looked around, "Where are the people, there are only two of us."

"I really can't!" Xingchen Qi was anxious, "If someone hears the sound, we will be finished!"

Ye Bai reacted for a few seconds before reacting to what the little fan meant.

-- he thought he was going to do that to him, in the dressing room.

Ye Bai laughed, and especially wanted to explore the little fan's brain circuit. The lounge is a public place and there is no way he would do anything to Xingchen Qi in a public place.

He couldn't let go.

Not to mention ...... How long does it take to change clothes, there is simply not enough to do.

Not so much time to explain, Ye Bai directly squatted down and went to take off Xingchen Qi's shoes by himself.

To keep warm during the shooting, Xingchen Qi wore a pair of short military boots. The boots were so loose that Ye Bai pulled them off with a gentle tug.

Xingchen Qi is even more anxious: "I really can't, either, or I'll use my hands to get it out for you first."

"...... What do you take me for," Ye Bai took off his socks expressionlessly, "I just want to see your feet."

...... look at ....... Feet ......

Ye Bai has such a fetish!

Xingchen Qi Qi was shocked for a moment, embarrassed to slurp: "OK, OK, then I, then I give you footcross."

"......" Ye Bai, completely speechless, ripped off the other party's socks in three tries.

The first thing you need to do is to get in touch with the air and get a cool feeling on your feet. Xingchen Qi lowered her head and tried to think about the steps of footcrossing.

In the past, in the acrobatic troupe, a group of bloodthirsty young boys often get together to observe the various teachers selflessly dedicated to the video. He was busy with his studies and rarely participated, occasionally sweeping a glance or two.

I've really scanned the content.

Just thinking about it made his face burn.

At this moment, his socks were gone and he was waiting for Ye Bai to take off his pants. He told himself in his mind: Calm down, calm down.

The next moment, what was placed on his feet was not what he thought it was, and two large warm hands.

Xingchen Qi raised his head and saw Ye Bai holding his feet, so he retracted his legs in fear: "I haven't washed my feet, they're dirty, let go of me!

Unfortunately, he could not resist the other party's strength. Ye Bai grabbed his snow-white ankle with one hand, and slowly kneaded the arch of his foot with the other slightly rusty, "Don't move, your foot is swollen, I will knead it for you."
