The natural light outside is intertwined with the lights in the elevator room, giving this area a world-like atmosphere.

Haven't seen each other for many years.

The last time they met was two years ago, when they divorced.

Since then, Cheng Xi has completely cut off contact with Meng Zhijin, as if the stencils on the photos of the two separated them in two worlds.

It is indeed two worlds.

She was about to die, and Meng Zhijin had just won the Golden String Award for Best Actress.

One day at a time, out of reach.

Cheng Xi didn't believe it when she said that she had never fantasized about reuniting with her ex.

The embarrassing reunion emotion just clings to Cheng Xi's heart, pinching her hard.

"Ding dong."

It doesn't matter whether she fled in despair or really didn't want to have any contact with this person, the moment the elevator arrived, Cheng Xi took the first step to withdraw her intertwined gaze with Meng Zhijin.

She didn't seem to notice that the person who was staring at her was the Queen Meng, whom everyone dreamed of currying favor with, so she walked into the elevator without thinking.

The little assistant who was about to walk towards Meng Zhijin seemed to want to say something, but when she saw that the elevator Cheng Xi was riding was about to close, she hurried back.

After all four of them entered, the elevator door slowly closed.

Meng Zhijin's position was a bit of a coincidence, it was right in the middle of the door, and her back inevitably stayed in Cheng Xi's sight for five or six seconds before being completely shut off by the closed door.

This person was dressed simply and neatly, but Cheng Xi recognized at a glance that her skirt was a new summer season new product released by Grandma Xiang last month.

The tube top black and white floral dress had a fork that was neither high nor low above her left leg, revealing her slender and straight leg faintly.

It's just that Cheng Xi's focus seems to be skewed.

She looked at the slightly protruding joints under the man's skirt, and felt that she seemed thinner.

The marketing account advertised that Meng Zhijin’s weight loss of twenty catties for the role of Ah Fang in "Silent" seems not to be an exaggeration. The film has been filmed for so long and has not been raised. It seems that the sudden loss of weight was a ruthless move. .

Now that he has won an honor that is difficult for others to match, he didn't take this opportunity to cultivate himself, and went out for activities as soon as he returned to China.

I really don't know what she is here to talk about today, and I have to work for her, the hot actress, to come here in person.

She won't be in the second season of "Our Romantic World" too, will she?

She also needs to form a cp with someone?Bundle marketing?

Ah.

Cheng Xi laughed in her heart, feeling that she was a bit of an empress in the East Palace baking big cakes.

Does Meng Zhijin need it now?

Cheng Xi has never heard of any actor who will participate in any variety show after winning the actress, let alone this is a romance show that is not a star.

This is undoubtedly a self-deprecating behavior.

The elevator was running smoothly, and the sound of buzzing flies rang in the quiet space.

Cheng Xi looked at the beating floor notification, and asked with unclear words: "What is she doing here?"

Xiao Wu hadn't recovered from Meng Zhijin's huge battle of actresses, she blinked her eyes dully when she heard Cheng Xi's question.

Before she could ask "who", Qi Ming's voice came: "Your cp program group was booked yesterday."

When Cheng Xi heard Qi Ming's words, her gaze stopped on the elevator door.

For a moment, she didn't know what she should be shocked by.

It's the Empress of the Eastern Palace who really knows how to bake big cakes.

Or Meng Zhijin wants to pretend to be a couple with herself in "Our Romantic World".

Even Xiao Wu could notice the eerie quietness.

Qi Ming went on to explain: "It happened suddenly, and I only got the news in the early morning."

"It was only yesterday that we confirmed that Mr. Meng agreed to the program group's invitation. It really happened suddenly." The assistant of the program group on the side nodded in agreement, as if it was not the responsibility of their program group.

"Because the CPs of the other groups have already been finalized, only Ms. Cheng's has not yet been finalized. We want you to meet with Teacher Meng today to discuss the possibility of a partner."

The voice of the little assistant explained was tense, but the hints in it were clearly conveyed.

The program team is determined to let Meng Zhijin participate.

If the result of today's discussion is not satisfactory, the person who will be replaced can only be Cheng Xi, who has already reached a cooperation intention with the program team.

Such an arrangement obviously did not put herself in a very important position, but has she not been taken seriously these years?

Being replaced, changing roles, even being replaced belongs to her awards...

A self-deprecating sarcasm flashed in Cheng Xi's eyes, and he said nothing.

"Ding dong!"

When the elevator reached the designated floor, it gave out a crisp beep.

The elevator door opened slowly, and a smiling face came into view.

It's just not facing Cheng Xi and his party.

Man: "Teacher Meng is here, is the journey going well?"

Meng Zhijin slowly got out of the elevator.

She is famous in the circle and doesn't talk much, so she simply replied: "It's okay."

The man nodded, and wanted to say something, the little assistant who came up with Cheng Xi called him first: "Director Wang, Miss Cheng is here too."

Hearing this, the man turned his head and saw Cheng Xi coming out of the elevator.

The cyan suspender skirt flowed with light and shadow, outlining Cheng Xijiao's good figure without hesitation. No one would have thought that this skirt was just the one she bought from a street stall last week when she was visiting the night market.

The straight collarbone was not concealed, provoking the snow-white and translucent skin, and matched with the red lips that were deliberately painted, the smell of disaster and disaster that hit the face made the man's usually calm eyes enlarge a little bit uncontrollably.

Director Wang has seen too many popular artists with empty skins but no acting skills, so he is really puzzled, how can Cheng Xi, an irreplaceable appearance type in the current market, be reduced to the current no-show role? The point of shooting.

"Now that everyone is here, can we go?"

Director Wang stared at Cheng Xi's gaze for a long time, and before he could figure it out, Meng Zhijin's voice interrupted him.

These words are asking, the calm voice is gentle and gentle, and there is no sullenness or dissatisfaction.

She looked at Director Wang, but Cheng Xi felt that she was also in her sight.

The light that fell in just fell on Meng Zhijin's side face, and Cheng Xi looked at her with the same eyes as when they met for the first time.

Hidden under the just right gentleness and peace is a bottomless pool of water, which is pitch black and mixed with her pupils, making people feel that she has no sense of distance, but at the same time, she cannot really get close to her.

This is the way she looks at strangers she has never met before.

stranger...

……Good.

Cheng Xi raised her chin and slightly bent her eyes.

An indescribable feeling weighed on her exclamation.

Not up or down.

With Meng Zhijin's reminder, Director Wang didn't dare to neglect any longer, and hurriedly invited the group to the reception room.

Cheng Xi's polished contract and Meng Zhijin's contract were handed over to the two brokers respectively, and there was the sound of paper being flipped in the room.

People from two families were sitting on the L-shaped sofa, only Cheng Xi was leaning on the back of the chair.

The slender leg was exposed from the slit skirt, hanging loosely on the other leg, with a lazy look of staying out of it.

She didn't seem to care much about signing the contract.

It reminded me of Meng Zhijin's eyes interlaced with her just now.

Cheng Xi optimistically felt that her new job must be dead.

"There is no problem with the contract. We can sign the contract after a few clauses are revised. It's just about acting as a couple..."

After a while, Su Jing, Meng Zhijin's manager, spoke first.

Cheng Xi listened to this familiar voice, took a sip of water slowly, and waited for the words that she had been waiting for a long time to change herself.

It's just that this clever fox miscalculated this time.

"We still need to discuss this matter with Ms. Cheng. After all, it is the first time to participate in a romance drama. It is better for both parties to discuss and agree on many things in advance."

Ok?

What did Su Jing say just now?

Discuss with Miss Cheng?

Are there any other Miss Cheng here?

Cheng Xi doubted her ears, paused for a moment with the hand holding the glass, and suddenly raised her calmly drooping eyes.

Meng Zhijin sat on the sofa opposite her with her back straight, her calm demeanor indicated that she had no objection to what Su Jing said just now.

"In this way, Miss Cheng can sign the contract." Director Wang was a little happy.After all, after he met Cheng Xi himself just now, he began to regret that if Meng Zhijin didn't agree to cooperate with her, it would be a pity for the camera.

These words sounded like he got what he wanted, and Qi Ming's heart that had been on his mind since this morning was also relieved.

Just a second before she was about to nod, Cheng Xi held her down: "Actually, I don't think we need to sign the contract too quickly. We should discuss it with Teacher Meng and then sign together."

"Anyway, if you want to be a partner on a boat, it would be better to be in step with each other."

The so-called scene is nothing more than that.

The beautiful words of procrastination and polite refusal can be said by anyone in a hurry.

What's more, when Cheng Xi said this, her red lips were beautiful and full of style.

This made Director Wang readily agree without even thinking about it.

The clean tile floor reflects the bright light in the corridor, and the sound of high heels is a little restless.

Qi Ming followed Cheng Xi who came out of the reception room, chased her and asked, "Xiao Xi, what are you thinking?"

"What else can I think? That's Meng Zhijin." Cheng Xi turned her head and smiled at Qi Ming incomprehensibly.

The only person around Cheng Xi who knew about her and Meng Zhijin was Qi Ming.

This sentence sounds like it represents longing, but after adding the two red certificates with steel seals, it sounds particularly ferocious.

The separation between the two was not pleasant at the beginning, Qi Ming knew it.

But this opportunity is really rare, she wanted to persuade Cheng Xi again, but this man stopped.

Cheng Xi didn't follow the routine, and pointed at the sign above her head with a mischievous smile: "Sister Ming, there are three urgencies. I drank too much coffee just now, you go to the car first, and let me go to the toilet, okay?"

Qi Ming also knew that this was not a place to discuss things, and Cheng Xi's words were not absolute, and there was still a chance for her to change her mind, so she suppressed her helplessness and agreed to her request.

"Okay, then hurry up."

"Okay." Cheng Xi responded.

The shadow is held in place by the light.

Cheng Xi looked at Qi Ming's receding back, with that mischievous smile on his face, and completely disappeared after Qi Ming walked into the elevator.

It is false to say that people have three urgencies.

The faucet sensed that someone's palm stopped under it, and the water was released enthusiastically.

The cold water swallowed the warmth of Cheng Xi's fingertips, but she let it wash away as if she had never felt it.

The thorn lying in her heart stabbed Cheng Xi, a rotten snail, and made her slip back into her paralyzed shell.

Whether it is love or hate, the bond that has already been established will never be indelible. It is so ridiculous to be strangers after having had each other so passionately.

Cheng Xi really didn't know what Meng Zhijin was thinking.

Why do you want to be on the romance show?

Why did he choose to cooperate with his "stranger" ex-wife in the last romance?

What is she drawing?

Figure that they were really together before, is it convenient to form a CP?

Or do you want to pretend that your acting skills are not bad, and that you can confuse the fake with the real one when you go to Lian Zong Zong?

Or is it because he wants to know her well enough to keep her from getting out of bed every time?

Unable to restrain herself, Cheng Xi gritted her teeth and said, "Fuck."

"This is a public place, have you forgotten?"

The fingers shifted from the sensor of the faucet, and the water stopped abruptly.

The compartment door was pushed open from the inside, and there was a slight creak.

The familiar tone is distant and true, floating over from three years, tainted with the coldness of time.

Cheng Xiwu was stunned for a moment, and when she raised her eyes, she saw in the mirror that familiar and expensive black floral dress limited by Grandma Xiang.

The four-stage ruffles undulated with her steps, and Meng Zhijin pushed the door and walked out from the toilet cubicle.

Then, under Cheng Xi's gaze, she walked unhurriedly to the sink, her drooping eyelashes filled with aloofness full of distance.

Cheng Xi still doesn't like Meng Zhijin's look like she did in the past.

She raised her head and looked at Meng Zhijin in the mirror with the same strange attitude.The previous address was turned around and changed to "Mr. Meng": "Mr. Meng, I have a question that I don't understand. Why did you participate in such a program after you won the actress. This is really not good. Give us fools a way out."

"It's better not to demean yourself," Meng Zhijin said.

She put her hand under the faucet, and explained calmly amidst the sound of running water: "Such a program can broaden communication, and also get to know actors who may cooperate in the future."

The sound of running water made the human voice weak, and the red lips evoked a dazzling smile in the extraordinarily bright world in the mirror.

Cheng Xi turned her head to look at the real Meng Zhijin, and said stingingly, "But as far as I know, no one who participates in such a program is qualified to cooperate with Teacher Meng."

Meng Zhijin's movements stopped, and the sound of running water stopped abruptly.

Cheng Xi looked at Meng Zhijin's pause, which was contrary to her calmness in the camera, and felt a little pleased.

It's just that her pleasure didn't last long, and a shadow fell from her head.

The distance between the two is not too far, Meng Zhijin can meet Cheng Xi just by turning around.

What's more, she took another step towards Cheng Xi.

The social distance has been shortened suddenly.

There is only one wall behind Cheng Xi, neither advancing nor retreating.

Time seems to have stopped for a long time, or only a few seconds passed.

Meng Zhijin raised her eyelashes towards Cheng Xi bit by bit, her eyes were deep, and she paused every word.

"Why do you seem to be very clear about me now?"
