out of control wildfire

There is a small bell on the collar.

A small copper bell, round and round.

Gu Qingxu was a little at a loss holding the box.

He carefully put the box into the drawer, and when the bell rang slightly, his face burned inexplicably.

It took Zhou Mian almost a week to shoot the short film, leaving it for the team to edit.

After filming a promotional video for Wen's Bank, Wen Wan asked her to have afternoon tea.

When she arrived, she realized that Wen Wan had come prepared. He asked her with excitement, "Do you know Shi Wan?"

She raised her eyebrows: "what?"

Wen Wan was very excited: "The Hong Kong media is overwhelmingly full of news that he spent tens of millions to hold a concert to pursue you. It's so impressive. The prince of Yangliu'an spends half a million to seize a girl before the relationship is confirmed. You Now he is famous in Hong Kong City.”

Zhou Mian smiled in the dim light of the bronze lamp, not interested in this topic: "This cafe doesn't know how to make hand-brewed coffee from Kenyan coffee beans with such high acidity."

Outside the window with white wavy flowers behind her, there are lush green plants, and the drizzle dyes the green deeper. Her light-colored bohemian dress also looks quiet and elegant.

She took a sip, not wanting to get carried away.

Wen Wan did not let her go, and asked excitedly: "What did he study in your school?"

Unfortunately, the other party was Party A. Party A kept asking questions and refused to answer because he couldn't sleep well during the day: "Drama and literature."

Wen Wan nodded: "It matches well."

"How can he be a good match? As the heir, he doesn't study business. How can he be a good match?" Zhou Mian was puzzled.

Wen Wan didn't take it seriously, picked up the coffee and took a sip: "People who have been rich for many generations generally do not study business, because it is too practical and seems cheap. Many young men from aristocratic families study philosophy and literature, which is classical enough and stylish enough."

The class that cannot sleep during the day does not know this. This is the first time I have heard of it.

But when she asked Shiwan the same question that night at the concert, Shiwan didn't show any condescension.

Wen Wan didn't notice her slight hesitation: "Except for people like Gu Qingxu who clearly study law and are suitable for inheritance, there are basically many people who like to study literature. Therefore, young masters from aristocratic families generally prefer girls with style and bookishness."

Wen Guan looked at Zhou Mian with admiration: "A talented girl like you who got into the top university in the country based on your strength and a liberal arts college should be very marketable. Everyone says you rely on your looks to get to the top, but I can see your thoughts and literary style from those videos and short films, and I also know that many rich people are chasing you."

Zhou Mian suddenly smiled: "When you said that, I remembered that I know a rich man who said he always respects women with culture."

Wen Wan Bagua: "How are you doing?"

She tapped her fingers on the wall of the coffee cup: "Very arrogant, very rich, and very stupid."

Wen Wan laughed.

But when she first saw Zhou Mian, she felt that she had a very sexy bookish air, which she couldn't explain clearly, like the wild wind or the continuous flowing dew.When I see her, I will think of the shadows of flowers on the wall moving, and I suspect that it is a beautiful woman coming, rather than those gentle, restrained and innocent sentences.

He wanted her to look at him again.

rarely seen.

Wen Wan sighed: "If I weren't a woman, I would really chase you, and Shi Wan would be in trouble."

"I actually think he should go abroad to study. I don't want to see him in China." Zhou Mian put down the coffee cup.

Wen Wan really didn't expect that Zhou Mian disliked Shi Wang so much, so he decided to say a few words to Shi Wang: "At Shi Wang's level, he probably has little interest abroad. Their company is state-controlled and affiliated with State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, he completed higher education in China and became a good person."

Before Zhou Mian could speak, she asked, "Can I see your school forum?"

Zhou Mian gave her the mobile phone.

Wen Wan directly searched for Shiliang.

"To be honest, I'm quite curious about him. If he wasn't related to you, I probably wouldn't have been able to get in touch with him. Everyone knows that he is very handsome, and he is the only third generation of Yangliu'an. He is so mysterious-"

The words stopped and Wen Wan looked up at Zhou Mian in surprise: "Did you pour coffee over it?"

Zhou Mian said in one stroke: "Yeah."

Wen Wan was shocked: "He's not angry?"

Zhou Mian said calmly: "Not angry."

Wen Wan's jaw dropped: "Are you not angry with you or are you so friendly to everyone?"

"The former." Zhou Mian leaned on the back of the wicker chair with a nonchalant attitude.

He is really not very friendly to other people.

When choosing a man, she definitely doesn't want to become that man's special preference. When love is used as a false mask, the man's true nature will be covered up.

If love disappears one day, she will be just one of those living beings he despises.

But if she chooses someone with excellent character, even if her love fades one day, she will still feel at ease, believing that he will still treat her well because of his sense of responsibility and character.

She didn't dare to say that her concept was definitely right, but in this industry she had seen too many lovers turn against each other. They used to be in love and were sweet, but when they broke up, it was so ugly.

It all comes down to the fact that they are not inherently good people.

When you fall in love with someone who is not a good person, you can't even imagine what it would be like to not love you anymore.

How can you feel safe?
"It's really breathtaking, and he lets others discuss it and doesn't mind at all." Wen Wan sighed unconsciously.

The girl opposite just smiled nonchalantly.

The cell phone in Wen Wan's hand suddenly rang, and she handed it to Zhou Mian: "You have a phone number."

Zhou Mian took it and slid her white fingertips to the answer button: "Hello."

Not sure what the other person said, Wen Wan could only hear her calm reply.

"Drinking coffee outside."

"Don't really want to see the bell ringing."

She said a few words and hung up the phone directly.

"Who?" Wen Wan asked casually.

Zi Miao put down the phone unmoved: "Shi Wang."

Unexpectedly, Wen Wan's eyes widened quickly: "Shi Wang?"

"Did he ask you out?"

"Ask me if you want to go to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to see the bell ringing. If your subsidiary is listed, please let me ring it." Zhou Mian explained indifferently.

"He actually asked you to ring the bell when he went public. There must be a lot of media on the scene. He must be too kind to you." Wen Wan was filled with envy.

Zhou Mianpi smiled but said: "What kind of privilege is it for him to take me along with him when he does something he can do every day?"

Surprised by the sobriety and indifference of Day Sleep, Wen Wan secretly clicked his tongue, no wonder he could resist Shi Wan's fierce pursuit.

Zhi Mian's phone buzzed again. She picked it up and read the message, then replied a few words roughly.

While they were chatting about entertainment industry gossip, a thin and tall figure appeared in front of Wen Wan.

Wen Wan saw it from the corner of his eye, raised his head suddenly, and almost screamed.

Shi Wang gave her the power bank, and Zhou Mian took it and charged it.

Shi Wang's voice was as gentle as ever: "Are there any activities at night?"

"Read and memorize the manuscript." Zhou Mian answered him calmly.

"Okay, see you at the news station tomorrow." Shi Wang was implicitly rejected and was not angry.

When he raised his eyes, he smiled politely at Wen Wan who was sitting opposite Zhou Mian.

Wen Wan was so flattered that he almost couldn't sit still.

As soon as Shi Wang left, Wen Wan immediately said, "Gu Qingxu has a strong enemy."

Zhou Mian said nothing and took another sip of the sour hand-brewed coffee.

I won't come next time.

Wen Wan had to lament for his friend: "Shi Wang's wealth is more than ten times that of Gu Qingxu. Gu Qingxu is still at a critical moment of life and death, and I'm afraid he doesn't have even one percent."

Zhou Mian's eyebrows were calm: "The children of Jiangdong are so talented, and there's no telling if they will make a comeback." It's one thing to see it from the news, but it's another thing to see it with your own eyes. Wen Wan sighed: "He has no sense of superiority towards you at all. It’s so rare.”

"Which one are you going to choose?"

Zhou Mian smiled and did not answer.

Wen Wan vowed: "I will not be partial just because I know Gu Qingxu."

She begged: "Tell me."

Zhou Mian was helpless: "I don't plan to choose. Both of them have problems. Shi Wan can at best be friends."

Wen Wan said with a face: "Oh, what a pity. I really want to live your life one day and be chased by two super handsome guys."

"No, there may be more than two."

She rubbed her head and sighed: "Ordinarily, I can only read romance novels. If I am as beautiful as you, all the Hong Kong media reports will be on me, and I will live a life of romance novels every day."

"Not everyone is like you. I was born to be a respected daughter of an international bank. I have a special profession and many people come and go around me, but not many of them are sincere." Zhou Mian said in a normal tone.

Only you can understand everyone's difficulties.

The innocent daughter of a rich family is the envy of many people.

Most of the time, she was just treated as a plaything. Even the debts incurred from the family business were paid off little by little by her.

Wen Wan pulled up the thin blanket covering his legs: "To be honest, Shi Wan smells like he is in love, and the perfume on his body is very ambiguous."

Zhou Mian raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you think of Gu Qingxu?"

Wen Wan let out a sigh: "I remember that he often wears French lover. His perfume has a chic and domineering smell. It's so cold, so indifferent, so ruthless, and he follows the ethics. He feels like a monk who is being stalked by a witch."

Zhou Mian couldn't help lowering her eyelids and smiling.

Wen Wan had a teasing look on her face and deliberately lengthened her voice: "I like it~"

Picking up a long and thin cake fork, Zhou Mian inserted a piece of black forest into it and teased: "Party A, why do you have such a rich imagination?"

"I love reading romance novels. If the character fits the character, I love to take on the role."

"Then you called me out just to ask me which one to choose?" Zhou Mian was curious.

Wen Wanhehe: "You have seen through it. I love to watch it. I really love to watch it. I think whichever one you choose is good."

Her tone was too exaggerated, and Zhou Mian finally understood why she used a lot of exaggerated adjectives. At first, she thought Wen Wan was interested in Shi Wan, but she didn't expect that he was interested in romance novels.

No wonder I watched her secret love short film series in the first place.

Wen Wan made a big promise: "You can always claim my name when you go out. Even if your new series of short films hits the streets this time, I will protect you."

Zhou Mian felt that as long as Wen Wan could always get it, she would be able to flood herself with resources.

Many people cannot force such a life if they are careless and have simple hobbies.

She raised the corners of her lips: "Okay, cover me."

Wen Wan was always in a state of excitement, and it was obvious that he came to get close to Zi Miao in the name of endorsement. When he left, he took a selfie with her and asked her to sign the Polaroid, just like a fan.

She also had to write a signature.

Zhou Mian understood that Wen Wan was a star chaser, that's why he was so interested in her affairs and her works.

She has seen many star-chasers, but this is the first time she has seen this kind of day sleep.

like a friend.

After saying goodbye, it wasn't long before she received a business message from her agent.

It was a level of advertising that she could not receive before.

Zhou Mian knew well that it was probably Wen Wan's favor.

Isn't it because Mr. Chen was so kind to her at that time because of Wen's Bank's endorsement?

The next day, she packed up and went to the National University News Station. As soon as she entered, she saw Shi Wan discussing something with other seniors, and even had some arguments.

Probably because of the news broadcast, the original director wanted Zi Mian to broadcast a whole issue directly, and when the time came, the news of Zi Mian's arrival would be placed on the front page of the National University News Network.

Shi Wang argued hard to refuse, saying that NUS news should not be entertainment.

The whole place was full of people, and Zhou Mian suddenly stood behind the director and made a series of sign language gestures to Shi.

(I don’t agree with his opinion, so I must reject it and say I don’t have enough experience.)
No one could understand except Shi Wan, who was suddenly startled.

She stood in the dark, with only the studio lantern in profile. She wore a crisp white shirt, and her long hair, specially dyed black, was draped gently and demurely on the back of her head.

His heart beat violently.

What else did the director want to say, but Shi Wang said directly: "But now it is the first time for Zhou Mian to broadcast news, and she is very inexperienced. If the progress is delayed, she cannot bear the responsibility."

Everyone was surprised that he directly said that he lacked experience in day sleep.

After all, sleeping during the day is more photogenic than eating. Wouldn't this be a bit arbitrary?

But looking back at Zi Mian, Zi Mian was just like a normal person, not angry at all and still eating breakfast.

The director choked up.

It doesn't seem to be very reliable.

"Zi Mian, you go in and try out a section first."

Zhou Mian put down the bread, took a sip of water, and walked into the studio.

Shi Wang signaled the lighting engineer to adjust the light, and with little changes, Zhou Mian's face went from round and overexposed to thin and three-dimensional.

45-degree beauty light is usually used in movies.

Zhou Mian only told the lighting engineer of his team once, and Shi Wan remembered it.

The light loves her, and so does Shiwan.

Zhou Mian wore a headset and said with a smile: "Good morning everyone, this is National University News..."

"On November 20, the Ministry of Personnel held the No. [-] Academic Salon for Guoyun University Teachers. The impact of artificial intelligence technology progress on the social economy... Nobel Prize winner Professor Konstantin visited the School of Materials Science and Engineering and conducted a comprehensive scientific research Lou held academic exchanges with representatives of teachers and students of the college..."

Shi Wan looked at her, love flowing in his eyes.

She smiled, and her unscripted broadcast was confident and neat, without her usual laziness. Her words were clear and her eyes were clear.

He suddenly felt that this was what day sleep should be like.

When that little girl with a round face told him that she wanted to make news about herself for everyone to see, the bigger dream she didn't dare to express might be to become a truly dazzling news person.

It's not careless, it's not like it doesn't matter.

The day sleep he first met was a hot person.

There was heat in his eyes.

He found her too late.

But he wasn't sure whether she would still like him.

The senior next to Shi Wang smiled and gestured: "Okay, very good, I will do the same later."

Shi Wang also sat down to rest.

Zhou Mian nodded, she got up and wanted to move, but she saw the equipment on Shi Wang's side tipped over, and it was about to hit Shi Wang's right ear.

Without thinking, Zhou Mian rushed forward and blocked Shi Wang from the headlight that was about to hit his right ear.

The lamp hit her arm with an obvious click. Zhou Mian's face turned pale in pain, but her first reaction was to look at Shi Wan's ears.

Shi Wang was shocked and immediately pulled up the equipment that was pressing on her hand to support her.

Everyone in the studio was stunned.
