just like it

Luo Yuchuan got up calmly, took the string of colorful rice dumplings in his hand, nodded to Wu Xia, raised his hand to pat Jiang Miao's shoulder, and said, "I'm going back."

Jiang Miao hurriedly said, "I'll see you off."

Wu Xia stepped aside and waved his hands with a smile: "Come here often."

Luo Yuchuan: "...um."

When they got downstairs, they realized that it was raining.

The rain just started, and the ground was covered with dense marks by the raindrops.It is not convenient to park in the community, Luo Yuchuan's car is still parked on the side of the road outside the community.

Jiang Miao immediately turned back to go upstairs: "I'll get you an umbrella."

Luo Yuchuan held him back: "No need."

Jiang Miao looked at the sky worriedly and said, "You will get wet when you go out."

"It doesn't matter," Luo Yuchuan squeezed his hand, "It's not far away, it'll be fine if you walk quickly."

In front of the door of the unit building, there is only the light of the sensor light from the corridor. Now the sensor light is off, and there are only sporadic lights from the windows of the residents upstairs, dimly illuminating the area in front of the building.

"Why don't you leave later." Jiang Miao suggested.

There is no certainty about the rain in this season. It will come when you say it, and it will go when you say it. Wait a while, maybe it won't stop.

Luo Yuchuan didn't respond, and looked at him silently. In the dim night light, Jiang Miao felt that there seemed to be a little smile in his eyes.

Suddenly, Jiang Miao also realized.If he didn't leave and went upstairs again, Wu Xia had already returned. If he didn't go upstairs, would he just stand here in a daze at the door of the building?

So he changed his mind again and urged: "You better go."

While talking, he also gently pushed Luo Yuchuan.

No push.

Luo Yuchuan stood firmly, but still slightly lowered his head to see his posture.

Jiang Miao also felt something was wrong, isn't he trying to drive people away?

"I'm not...I'm afraid that it will rain heavily later..." Jiang Miao couldn't continue speaking halfway.

After a while, what do you want to do?He was a little annoyed, so he simply closed his mouth and remained silent.

In the darkness, Jiang Miao heard Luo Yuchuan laugh lightly, a figure flickered in front of him, and his face was touched lightly.

Luo Yuchuan raised his head and said, "I'm leaving."

Without waiting for Jiang Miao's response, he buried his head in the rain and strode away.

Jiang Miao raised her hand and opened her mouth. She didn't know whether to say "goodbye" or "be careful on the road". After hesitating, Luo Yuchuan had already turned a corner and was out of sight.

He slowly lowered his hand and touched the place on his face that Luo Yuchuan kissed just now.

Luo Yuchuan's lips were a little cold, and the kiss on the face was less than a second, but it seemed like sparks fell off, and Jiang Miao's face burned up belatedly.

Luo Yuchuan, who ran back to the car, did not start the car in a hurry.

He carefully took out the colorful rice dumplings from his trouser pocket. He was holding them in his hand just now to avoid getting wet, so he stuffed them in his trouser pocket.

The tassels of the little rice dumplings were a bit messy, Luo Yuchuan tidied them up carefully, held them in his hand and looked at them again, and hung the little rice dumplings under the rearview mirror.

When Jiang Miao came back upstairs, Wu Xia had gone to take a shower, and the stack of colorful advertising papers he carried back was spread out on the coffee table.

Jiang Miao sat on the sofa and took a few photos to read.

Almost all of them are training materials, of all kinds, such as taekwondo, flower arranging, painting, pottery, yoga... It seems that Wu Xia's desire to learn something is not a whim.

While watching, the bathroom door opened, Wu Xia took a shower, changed into her pajamas, and came out wiping her hair with a towel.

"Hey, you came up so soon?" Wu Xia was quite surprised.

Jiang Miao didn't answer the question, and raised the advertising paper in his hand: "What do you want to learn?"

"Nope."

Wu Xia sat down on the sofa with a towel on his head, and took a few pieces of advertising paper: "Isn't this slowly finding it? Tsk, there is no need to learn Taekwondo, and there is no need to think about art..."

While talking, he threw these few pages of advertising paper aside, flicked the remaining ones in his hand, shook his head and said mockingly: "The rest of the yoga and so on seem to be of little use after learning."

Jiang Miao said, "It's not necessarily true. If you learn well, you can also take the exam to become a yoga instructor, and then you can lead students."

"Forgive me," Wu Xia leaned her head back against the sofa, "When I become a coach, I don't know when it will be, and I will have to lead students. To be honest, I just want to find someone who doesn't deal with people. Work, you understand? Well, tired."

After looking at the stack of advertisements in his hand, Jiang Miao also put away the advertisement that Wu Xia had thrown aside, and said, "Have you set a goal first? What kind of field do you want to learn? What is your tuition budget?" How much, how much time and energy do you plan to spend, how much will it help you get a job after you finish your studies..."

Wu Xia hurriedly interrupted him: "Hey, wait a minute, why are you talking about helping with employment?"

Jiang Miao glanced at him strangely: "Didn't you just say that yourself?"

"Ah? What did I say?"

"You said you wanted to find a job with less contact with people."

Wu Xia blinked: "I said?"

Jiang Miao was speechless: "It took less than a minute to finish."

After being stunned for a while, Wu Xia finally said, "It seems that I said it."

Then he stretched long, yawned and said, "It seems that I'm really tired, I can't remember what I said."

Jiang Miao glanced at him again: "You can guess it even if you don't say it? If you don't study art, if it takes too long to learn, it must not be a sudden desire to develop a hobby."

Wu Xia reached out and rubbed the back of Jiang Miao's head: "Miaomiao is smart."

Jiang Miao waved his hand away and said seriously: "Whether you are preparing for a job change or not, you should consider what I just said."

"What did you just say...?" Wu Xia half-closed his eyes.

"Set a goal, combine your own actual situation and expected results, think carefully, otherwise you will cast the net blindly, or learn halfway and find that it is not suitable, it will take time and money... Hey?... Get up! Don't be here Sleep, go to bed and sleep."

After the outside shooting came back, the task of editing the film was handed over to Jiang Miao, and Hu Chengjie had already gone to outside shooting at the client's request.

Jiang Miao came to the studio early in the morning, sat in front of the new computer that Hu Chengjie had assigned to him, and started working.

This morning, some customers came to make up early, and the assistants and makeup artists were busy preparing for the shoot.When nine o'clock came, Ma Nian and Sun Qian also arrived.

Jiang Miao went out to pour water, and said hello to Sun Qian by the way.Ma Nianjin put away his bag in the studio, went to the studio to look at the things he had prepared, but still ignored Jiang Miao.

Jiang Miao also roughly understood the business of the studio. Hu Chengjie was basically the one who needed to shoot on location, and Ma Nian was mainly responsible for the shooting in the studio.

In terms of investment, Hu Chengjie is the big boss of the studio, but in front of the employees, his prestige is not as high as Ma Niangao, let alone Sun Qian.After all, Sun Qian presides over the daily work of the studio, and he seldom stays in the studio, and his personality is not suitable for management, so his position in the studio is a bit delicate.

The subtlety is that when Hu Chengjie is in the studio, the employees can remember that there is a boss like him, and when he is not there, they seem to have completely forgotten about him.It is said that once he went out for a long time, and when he came back, the girl at the front desk didn't remember what his name was. She stared at him and opened her mouth to think for a long time, and finally shouted upstairs, "Brother Ma, that... who is back."

Apart from the reason that the little girl at the front desk is lacking in mind, Hu Chengjie's own attitude of being careless and indifferent to the identity of the boss also has to be counted.

Working in the editing room until noon, Jiang Miao saved the work progress and turned off the computer.He Yu asked him to go to Z University today, calculated the time and rushed there now so that we can have lunch together.

Coming out of the retouching room, I saw Sun Qian and the make-up artist standing by the front desk, holding a dress in their hands and comparing them with each other, while chatting happily, it seemed that the courier had just arrived.

Just as Jiang Miao was about to go out, Ma Nian seemed to have finished his work in the morning. He went down the stairs in front of him without noticing him. He went down the stairs and went directly to the front desk.

"What are you looking at?" Ma Nian walked forward with a smile.

Sun Qian compared herself with the dress, and asked him, "Look, how is it?"

Ma Nian raised the skirt and asked, "Your?"

"Don't care who it is, just say it looks good or not?"

Ma Nian smiled: "It's okay if it's Xiaotao's, but it's not okay if I want yours."

Xiaotao is a makeup artist, and she laughed when she heard this: "Why is it mine?"

Ma Nian shook his head and smiled, unwilling to speak.

Sun Qian slapped him on the arm: "Speak, say half and keep the other half, who is hanging?"

"Oh, take it easy," Ma Nian rubbed his arms before smiling, "This skirt is too small, it doesn't fit you..."

While talking, he glanced up and down at Sun Qian's chest, Xiaotao and the girl at the front desk immediately let out an "ouch" and laughed.

Sun Qian slapped Ma Nian's arm again, and said with a smile, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

When Jiang Miao saw Ma Nian coming down the stairs just now, he stopped and saw that they were chatting and laughing at the front desk, as if no one had noticed him.After standing for a while, Jiang Miao called "Sister Qian" before walking over.

The people at the front desk seemed to be stunned, and turned to look at Jiang Miao.

A look of surprise flashed across Sun Qian's face, and she immediately smiled and said, "Why are you going out now? It's lunch time soon, and I'm planning to order food."

Jiang Miao smiled slightly and said, "No, I have an appointment with a classmate."

"Is that so..."

Ma Nian knocked on the glass countertop at the front desk and said, "Call me a pickled fish, I haven't eaten there for a long time."

He didn't call anyone, and he didn't know who he was talking to.

But Sun Qian turned her head and replied: "Then order another serving of boiled beef and cumin ribs. These two dishes are quite popular, and you can figure out what else you want."

She looked back at Jiang Miao again: "You really don't want to eat here?"

"No, I'm leaving, Sister Qian." Jiang Miao said and turned to leave. After thinking about it, she turned around again, "I'll come back in the afternoon, I haven't finished the repair yet."

Sun Qian froze for a moment, and said, "Oh, good."

As a non-staff member of the studio, Jiang Miao does not need to clock in and out of get off work. Even Sun Qian and the others are not strict with employees' attendance. It doesn't matter whether Jiang Miao will come in the afternoon or not. .

He came to edit the film early this morning and didn't mention it in advance.

But at this moment, he felt that he should say something. He couldn't explain why, but he made a subconscious decision.

I thought that meeting He Yu would be enough to have a meal in the dining hall of Z University, but He Yu asked him to go to a western restaurant outside the campus.

Jiang Miao still has an impression of this western restaurant. The price is medium to high, and the taste is medium to low. It is a restaurant with a clear positioning for the student consumer group.

However, the environment and service are not bad, and the students of Z University are quite fond of visiting, especially some couples, Jiang Miao and He Yu rarely come.

I don't know why He Yu made an appointment here today.

Jiang Miao entered the western restaurant with doubts, and was looking for someone, when he heard He Yu's voice calling him, following the sound, he understood why he chose the western restaurant.

In the booth by the window, opposite He Yu who was waving warmly, sat two pretty girls.

When Jiang Miao walked over, He Yu stood up and took his backpack, put his hand on his shoulder, and introduced with some pride: "This is Jiang Miao, my good buddy."

He pointed to the long-haired girl: "This is Zhao Yiran, from the Department of Chinese, the same class as us."

Pointing to the short-haired girl next to her, "This is her roommate, a good best friend, from the French department, named Tong Tong."

Both girls smiled and shook hands at Jiang Miao.

Jiang Miao greeted him politely, and was pulled to sit down by He Yu. He was a little at a loss, not knowing what He Yu was doing.

While waiting for the meal, the four chatted casually, all young people, and He Yu would tell a joke from time to time to adjust the atmosphere, and Jiang Miao gradually relaxed.

Zhao Yiran smiled and said, "We don't go around in circles anymore. He Yu said that classmate Jiang is an expert in our Z University Photography Club. This time, I asked him to help us set up a set of photos. "

Jiang Miao was stunned, then turned to look at He Yu: "Why are you bragging?"

He Yu clicked his tongue: "How can it be bragging? I am always seeking truth from facts."

Tong Tong also smiled and said, "He really doesn't brag about it. Yi Yi and I went to the photography club's exhibition during the school celebration and saw Jiang's work."

Hearing this, Jiang Miao felt relieved.He was really afraid that He Yu would blow him up and make the girls have too high expectations.

"Even you know that we students have limited financial ability, so, in terms of fees, can you please be more convenient and offer a discount?" Zhao still said apologetically.

It was only then that Jiang Miao realized that this was the "business" He Yu gave him.

Zhao Yiran joined the Hanfu Club of Z University, and wanted to take a photo of Hanfu with his girlfriends as a commemoration before graduation.The girls are responsible for the costumes and make-up, and the location is also decided by them. Jiang Miao only needs to finish the shooting.

It was much easier for Jiang Miao.

Now that the final exams are approaching, there is no time. Fortunately, Zhao Yiran and Tong Tong are both from the city, so they agreed to shoot again during the summer vacation.

After a meal, the "business" was easily finalized, and He Yu, the "hero", was quite proud.

While the two girls were going to touch up their makeup, he asked Jiang Miao for credit: "How is it? I'm not talking nonsense when I said I'm going to do business for you, right? Brother, how is your efficiency?"

Jiang Miao gave a thumbs up: "Bull."

"That's right." He Yu waved triumphantly, "Waiter, pay the bill."

As he said that, he poked Jiang Miao's shoulder again: "I said this meal should be invited by you."

Jiang Miao shook her head: "No, it's up to you."

"Eh?"

Jiang Miao glanced at him: "Take me to curry favor with your goddess, pretend I can't see it?"

He Yu was stunned for a moment, and his face blushed quickly: "You, did you see it?"

"I have very good eyesight."

He Yu clearly showed enthusiasm and concern for Zhao Yiran, and Jiang Miao could see it if he paid a little attention, and He Yu was quite happy in his heart.

It can be seen that both Zhao Yiran and Tong Tong are well-educated girls with good looks and brains.

When Jiang Miao told the truth, He Yu didn't hesitate. He hooked Jiang Miao's neck and said, "Then, for my sake, consider it a friendship price."

The two had separated from Zhao Yiran and the others at the moment, and were walking towards the bus station. Jiang Miao felt awkward being hooked by his neck, so she broke away and said, "Don't pay the friendly price, it's free."

He Yu chased after him and hooked his neck again: "How can I do that, you need to make money from this now."

Jiang Miao struggled again: "Really, they handle the costumes and make-up by themselves, and I don't provide the venue, so I will provide some technology. Besides, what kind of friendship are we? It's completely okay for free. I say you let me go first."

He Yu was naturally very moved, but he still firmly refused: "No, this is the first business you have received by yourself. It can't be free, you have to get off to a good start, you know? You have to charge as much as you want."

Hearing what he said, Jiang Miao couldn't hold on any longer, so she could only say, "All right, all right, you have to chase after her. I'll take the wedding photos when you're done."

He Yu was stunned, and excitedly hooked Jiang Miao's neck: "That must be done!"

Jiang Miao was so strangled that he could hardly breathe, and he stabbed He Yu's stomach hard with his elbow: "Do you have points in your hand?!"

He Yu let go, laughed twice, and shook his head aggrievedly: "Miao, you've changed, we two brothers used to be so affectionate, but now you don't like hooking your neck, do you have it?" Then what senior Luo, you don't want me?"

Jiang Miao rubbed her neck and raised her knee to press He Yu's butt: "Get lost."

On the way back to the studio by bus, Jiang Miao sent Luo Yuchuan a WeChat message.

Talking about taking photos with He Yu and the others, he remembered taking "work photos" for Luo Yuchuan.

In fact, he has been thinking about it all the time, he is afraid that Luo Yuchuan will be reprimanded by Yuan Kuohai for this matter, and he is looking forward to taking pictures of Luo Yuchuan again.

After a while, Luo Yuchuan's message came back: "Weekend."

Looking at the two short words on the phone, Jiang Miao was inexplicably excited.

He thought about it, and sent another message to Luo Yuchuan: "Where are you going?"

Soon Luo Yuchuan came back, still two words: "Secret."

Taking advantage of today's rest, Wu Xia simply picked a few training courses that he felt a little interested in, and went to the field for a field trip.

The actual situation did not satisfy him.

If it wasn't that the place was too far away, if it wasn't that the learning content was too different from what he had imagined.

And his most promising cooking training class is mainly for full-time housewives, and it also teaches some so-called creative cooking that is more inclined to "look pretty".

He was led by the reception staff of the training class to watch how to pickle radishes with lemons next to a dozen housewives in their 30s and [-]s, and then retreated silently.

He knew that not all cooking classes were like this, but he also realized that he didn't have the talent in this area.

It's not that he didn't hear what Jiang Miao said to him.

Your actual situation, expected results, how much time and energy you plan to spend...

He understands the truth, but he is indeed still in a dazed state.

Want to change, but don't know where to change.

But there is no rush.

Wu Xia decided to watch it slowly first, or find some training class first, try it first, maybe try it, and then you will know exactly what you want to learn.

The phone rang, it was a text message prompt, Wu Xia took out the phone, and saw an unfamiliar phone number displayed, he just thought it was some kind of spam advertisement, and was about to move his fingers to delete it, but the content of the text message made him stop down.

—"Ten o'clock tonight, City Channel, evening news."

Wu Xia was stunned.
