Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 690 Where the dream begins
"Princess, I know you're thinking about me all the time, but I didn't expect you to spend even this little while reading my novel."

"Why, are you so obsessed with me?"

Quietly walking behind Zhang Jingyi and looking at the "Yunbian Convenience Store" in her hand, Lin Li said in a frivolous tone, pretending to be surprised.

Zhang Jingyi raised the corner of her mouth as she turned her back to Lin Li. He turned around and looked up at him, meeting his gaze with her clear eyes, and the familiar brackets on both sides of her cheeks appeared again.

"Yes, didn't I tell you the first time I met you that I am a fan of your books, but I admire you very much."

"Could it be that our teacher Nanxun is too busy and has forgotten?"

Zhang Jingyi tilted her head slightly and looked at him with a half-smile.

"how come."

Lin Li looked at her with a smile on his face, the love in his eyes seemed real.

"I still remember saying that you have a very recognizable look. When you don't smile, you have a stubborn determination not to look back. If you play a role in some youth pain literature, you will be very good."

"I hope you'll become an excellent actor. Maybe we'll have a chance to work together in the future."

"Now you see, we are cooperating."

"I didn't lie to you, did I, Princess?"

Lin Li stared at her eyes without blinking, which seemed to be able to speak, and repeated word for word what he had said to her at the book signing event.

As he spoke, Zhang Jingyi's eyes, which were originally as calm as a lake, gradually changed. Ripples seemed to appear in them, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly, with a look of surprise surging in them.

With Lin Li's words, the ripples in Zhang Jingyi's eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a thin layer of mist. The mist became thicker and thicker, as if countless small water droplets were swirling in her eye sockets.

Her eyes became soft, like a stream flowing slowly under the warm spring sun, full of emotion.

"Ah."

There were tears in Zhang Jingyi's eyes and she responded in a mosquito-like voice.

"Why are you still crying?"

"This is a public place. If others see it, they will think I bullied you."

Lin Li raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, coaxing her in a gentle voice.

"Of course you bullied me. If I'm not mistaken, you should have started to plot against me and that senior sister Zhou Ye a long time ago, right?"

After Lin Li wiped away her tears, Zhang Jingyi calmed down and looked at him dangerously with narrowed eyes.

Recently, she calmed down and reviewed every time she and Lin Li interacted from the first time they met to the subsequent times.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

She seems to be...

There have always been many routines!
Including the dispute between her and senior sister Cha Cha, it seemed that it was all caused by Lin Li's intentional or unintentional influence.

Today, she wants to confirm it with Lin Li.

"Ah……"

"Okay, let's talk while we walk."

Lin Li lowered his eyes, looked at her obsidian eyes, smiled, and took her right hand.

Their eyes were always in each other's eyes, never parting.

"Okay, I'm very curious."

Zhang Jingyi stood on tiptoe and put her little face close to Lin Li. She glanced at him coquettishly, then held his hand and took the initiative to pull him forward.

Lin Li smiled and let her hold his hand, and then they walked slowly hand in hand in the corridor with rows of bookshelves.

"Princess, do you believe in love at first sight?"

After walking a few steps, Lin Li did not directly answer Zhang Jingyi's question, but held her soft little hand and suddenly said.

"Of course I do, but I don't believe you fell in love with me at first sight."

"I don't feel anything at all."

"I clearly remember that I didn't even put on the simplest light makeup for the book signing that day because I was afraid of missing the time. I didn't look like the kind of beautiful woman who would make people fall in love at first sight."

"Or are you hiding it too well?"

"If that's the case, then you..."

“It tastes quite unique.”

Zhang Jingyi turned her head sideways and looked at Lin Li up and down with a suspicious look, obviously not believing what he said.

"Ah……"

"The princess seems to have no confidence in herself."

Lin Li chuckled and teased.

"I have a good understanding of myself. I was still a child at that time. If you fell in love with me at first sight, then I think your aesthetic taste is really unique."

Zhang Jingyi puffed up her mouth under the mask and said unhappily.

Lin Li looked at the anger in her eyes and his eyebrows curved even deeper.

The outfits they both wore today were actually somewhat similar, and he found it quite interesting when he saw her for the first time.

She had her hair tied in a low ponytail with a few strands of hair casually scattered on both sides of her cheeks. Her forehead was smooth and full, making her look neat and generous.

The mask covered most of her face, revealing only a pair of clear, bright eyes with a bright smile in her eyes.

A knee-length coat is draped neatly on the body, and the camel color shows elegance and texture.

Under the coat, the off-white sweater is soft and close-fitting, outlining her slender waist.

The black leather skirt she matched with the lower body had a delicate texture and the hem of the skirt was slightly flared, swaying gracefully as she walked.

The long boots wrapped around her legs made her look fashionable yet gentle.

"Um……"

"Ok."

"To be honest, it really wasn't love at first sight."

Lin Li shrugged and told the truth.

"I knew it." Zhang Jingyi looked at him sideways with a look that showed as if she knew it.

“But it’s not much different.”

Lin Li added with a smile.

"Ok?"

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Jingyi frowned slightly, revealing a puzzled look.

"That's probably it. When we first met, I had a feeling that we would meet again in the future."

"So, when I saw you again in Yubang for the second time, I felt indescribably touched."

"And the third time I saw you at Beijing Film Academy, it was both accidental and deliberate."

"It was unexpected because I was indeed invited by Beijing Film Academy."

"I did it on purpose because I know you are there."

"And it was because you were there that I activated the Wind Dog."

"It's because you and Ye Zi don't get along that I started to think about it."

"At that time, I was already with Dudu Xiaotian and the others, but I was greedy and didn't want to let you go."

"I also know that if you knew about my relationship with Dudu and the others, you would definitely stay away from me."

"The same goes for Ye Zi."

"So I want to use the reluctance between the two of you to form a bond between the three of us, until..."

"None of you can leave me."

After saying this in one breath, Lin Li stopped and turned to look at Zhang Jingyi's eyes which were already wide open and full of smiles.

She tilted her little face up, the whites of her eyes clearly visible, her eyes full of disbelief, as if the person before her had overturned her cognition.

His originally lively eyes seemed to be fixed, staring blankly at Lin Li, his eyebrows unconsciously raised, and a shallow wrinkle appeared between his eyebrows.

The long eyelashes kept trembling, like two frightened butterflies flapping their wings.

The shock in his eyes was like a calm lake being hit by a huge rock, causing huge waves that took a long time to calm down.

"Why, were you scared by me?"

Lin Li smiled and waved his hand in front of her eyes, speaking in a gentle voice.

"There is one thing, but I didn't expect that you had been trying to trick me so long ago."

"You are such a bad guy."

Zhang Jingyi quickly calmed herself down, then frowned and scolded Lin Li.

"I can't help it. I'm doing this for you."

"Without these means, what will happen if you leave me?"

Lin Li looked at her innocently and defended himself.

"Tsk, you're such a person, I have to think twice before saying anything in the future, you're not honest at all."

Zhang Jingyi glanced at him and spoke in a vigilant voice.

However, after calming down, she felt a little sweet and proud in her heart.

It turns out that she wasn't always in love with him.

It turns out that Lin Li has liked me so early.

It turns out he had made so many preparations for me.

It turns out that he would also worry about gains and losses for me...

"Everything happens for a reason. Long live understanding."

"Princess, look there."

"do you remember?"

Lin Li smiled and turned a blind eye, then raised his hand and pointed forward and asked her.

Zhang Jingyi looked in the direction of his finger, her expression froze for a moment, then slowly softened.

That was where Lin Li signed his autographs during the book signing event.

"of course I remember."

"There……"

“This is where the dream begins.”

Zhang Jingyi turned around and looked at him, her eyes filled with smiles.

"The place where dreams begin..."

“That sounds quite fitting.”

Lin Li chewed on her words, his eyes becoming brighter and brighter.

Zhang Jingyi didn't say anything, but just looked up at him with her eyes flashing.

Lin Li also looked at her and took her hands.

Their eyes met, and time seemed to stand still.

Lin Li's eyes were focused, his gaze locked on her, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows softened, filled with smiles.

Zhang Jingyi raised her head slightly, her eyes sparkling and full of nostalgia, like stars twinkling in the night sky.

The two of them just stared at each other quietly, their eyes moving as if conveying thousands of words. The memories of the past, the joy of the moment and the expectations for the future were all revealed in this gaze.

No words are needed, their hearts are already closer to each other.

We returned to where the dream began, and it turns out that dreams can really become reality.

——Zhang Jingyi
