Open hours

He Dingxi's cell phone was flickering frantically on the bedside table. After the screen turned on and off several times, it finally returned to calm.

Then the doorbell of his house rang like a reminder.

He Dingxi woke up sleepily and opened the door. Seeing the handsome Xie Sizhao standing at the door, he subconsciously closed the door with his backhand.

"Hey, hey, wait, wait." Xie Zhao stuck his foot in the crack of the door and squeezed in with difficulty: "I called you so many times but no one answered, I almost called the police!"

After hearing Xie Sizhao's words, He Dingxi stepped aside, looking as if he was still asleep.

As soon as Xie Sizhao stepped into the door of He Dingxi's house, he couldn't help but frowned.The curtains on all sides of the living room were closed, and the room was dark.

"Why is it so dark? Why are the curtains closed so tightly in broad daylight? You need to open them frequently for ventilation." While speaking, Xie Sizhao pulled the curtains aside.

Cigarette butts fell all over the window sill, Xie Sizhao took a look and said in shock, "Are you smoking?"

He Dingxi didn't answer Xie Sizhao's question, the sunlight came in from the window, and he squinted uncomfortably.I finally spoke my first sentence of the day.

"Why are you here?" He Dingxi asked.

While talking, he left Xie Sizhao and went upstairs to the bathroom by himself, ready to start brushing his teeth.

"Why did I come here?" Xie Sizhao followed up the master bedroom without notice: "Today we made an appointment at the company for a meeting, do you remember? The eight of us waited for you for half an hour."

He Dingxi rinsed his mouth, and said insincerely: "Well, I'm sorry, I overslept."

After hearing this, the expression on Xie Sizhao's face became even more strange. He Dingxi is not someone who would delay work because of oversleeping.

It doesn't matter if you are absent from the meeting, and the company cannot transfer without He Dingxi.It's just that Xie Sizhao called He Dingxi several times in the morning, but He Dingxi didn't answer any of them.He contacted the people around He Dingxi again, but no one could tell where he was.

Xie Sizhao was worried for a while, so he came to have a look.

"Why do you look so bad after sleeping late?" Xie Sizhao glanced at He Dingxi and asked tentatively, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

He Dingxi turned on the toothbrush and began to pretend to be deaf and dumb, obviously unwilling to talk, only the electric toothbrush was buzzing in the air.

Seeing that He Dingxi was not interested in talking to him, Xie Sizhao wandered into the small hall by himself.He wandered around the small hall a few times bored, and saw a racing helmet on the cabinet next to the bookshelf.

"Have you started playing traffic jams recently?" Xie Sizhao picked up the helmet and fiddled with it, saw that there was still a signature on the helmet, so he asked He Dingxi strangely: "Who is Ning Zhiyuan?"

"It's none of your business." He Dingxi just came out of the bathroom, took the helmet from Xie Sizhao, and carefully put it back on the cabinet.

It was the helmet that Ning Jue's father, Ning Zhiyuan, wore in his last match before retiring.The price of this thing is not high, but it is relatively unpopular, and there is relatively little information circulating on the market.In order to buy it, He Dingxi really spent a lot of effort.

He was still in the process of looking for Ning Zhiyuan's helmet, and happened to buy the championship ring that Xiao Keran wanted.

Previously, He Dingxi never found the right time to give this thing to Ning Jue, let alone give it to him in the future.

But none of that matters now.

He Dingxi lacked interest in everything he did today, and Xie Sizhao had no eyesight since he was a child, so he clamored for coffee as soon as he came.He Dingxi was too lazy to wait on the young master, so he found a coffee capsule from the drawer and dealt with it casually.

"What's the matter with you today?" The sound of the coffee machine working, Xie Sizhao stretched his neck, looked at He Dingxi's back, and asked, "Why is it so broken-hearted?"

"Is this the first day you know me?" He Dingxi came out with coffee and put it on the coffee table in front of Xie Sizhao.

"That's right." Xie Sizhao picked up the coffee and took a sip, showing a hard-to-swallow expression: "No one can make you sad."

The two sat on the sofa and talked about work for a while, and the TV happened to be replaying the first episode of the national variety show that Ning Jue had recorded before.He Dingxi had watched this episode when it premiered. He picked up the remote control to switch channels, but Xie Sizhao pressed it down.

Xie Sizhao happily watched TV for a while, and was amused by the plot designed in the program. He smiled and said to He Dingxi: "Your partner has been very aggressive recently."

The "object" Xie Sizhao mentioned is of course not the love object, but He Dingxi's "business CP object".But hearing the word "object", He Dingxi's heart was still stabbed severely.

Xie Sizhao seems unreliable, but his industry sense is still very keen.Ning Jue's recent momentum is indeed very strong.The variety show he participated in got a good response once it was aired. Because of his participation, the ratings and network data have reached new highs.

Ning Jue's personality in this show is very pleasing, coupled with his boldness, carefulness, and fun, he showed his strengths at the right time, and many viewers saw that he is not an idol star. They all expressed their affection for him.

Capital is always chasing the heat, and has already started contacting Ning Jue for new projects. Xie Sizhao alone knows a lot.

At this time, on the TV, the resident guest Zheng Zeguang was teasing Ning Jue: "If Ning Jue gets married and finds a partner in the future, what kind of person would he like?"

Idol artists usually avoid answering questions about marriage and love, but Ning Jue doesn't mind. He looked at the camera and said openly: "I like whoever he is."

When he said this, his eyes were very focused, as if he was looking affectionately at the person in front of the TV.

He Dingxi stared at the TV screen, seemingly unable to recover.

Zheng Zeguang gave a meaningful "Oh" and asked, "Ning Jue, have you met this person?"

Ning Jue was silent for a moment, probably for the effect of the program, he didn't say yes or no, but smiled ambiguously and said: "The fate has not yet come."

The program group intends to fire the CP in their program, so as soon as Ning Jue finished speaking, the camera cut to the face of another resident guest, Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan bowed her head and brushed her hair, smiling shyly and gently.

Ning Jue went to bed without drying her hair last night, and her hair style was really horrible when she woke up in the morning.As soon as he washed his hair hastily by the sink, Yang Mei led the staff to block the door.

Today Ning Jue participated in the opening event of a luxury brand flagship store, which is the endorsement he just won.

At the event site, Ning Jue happened to meet Fang Xian.During the waiting room, Fang Xuan stood beside Ning Jue, and the two chatted casually.Ning Jue and Fang Yuan were recording the same program recently, and the topics between them naturally revolved around this program.

Fang Yuan tugged at Ning Jue's sleeve, and asked casually, "During the last recording, I saw that the wristband you wore looked good. What brand is it? I'm going to buy one too."

"Yes..." Ning Jue paused, pulled out his sleeves calmly, and said, "It's a gift from a friend."

"What kind of friend is so caring?" Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Girlfriend?"

Ning Jue looked at Fang Yuan, smiled politely and said, "It's not friendly to ask an idol artist such a question."

Fang Yuan looked away, pretending to be angry and said, "Let's talk in private, what's the matter?"

At this time, a VIP customer of a brand came to ask for an autograph with their own children. Ning Jue patiently signed several copies for the little girl and her sisters, and even took a group photo with the little girl.

After the client took the little girl away, Fang Yuan asked Ning Jue, "Dining together after the event?"

"There is still a schedule for a while." Ning Jue waved back to the little girl from a distance, and said, "There will be a chance in the future."

When leaving the venue, Ning Jue saw the huge advertisement of He Dingxi in the mall.He still remembered that He Dingxi had a cold on the day of commercial shooting, so when this group of photos was taken, his eyes were a little red.

Seeing Ning Jue staring at He Dingxi's photo in a daze, Fang Xian walked up to Ning Jue and said, "This was your endorsement before."

Only then did Ning Jue remember, it seemed that there was such a thing.

Fang Yuan remembered the rumors in the circle that Ning Jue and He Dingxi were at odds, so he went on to say: "I heard that this endorsement was taken from you by him to talk to the brand himself, and to lower his value."

Hearing what Fang Yuan said, Ning Jue couldn't help but laugh. He had heard countless versions of this matter from different people.

Ning Jue thought that what they said was wrong, He Dingxi was a very good person.

This is the person he glanced at from an insurmountable distance, and has been remembered in his heart for so many years.
