Forever, beauty bone

Chapter 10 The Old Song of the Dust Year (1)
The guests lightly patted behind Shi Yi with their hands.

She suddenly said: "Thank you. Thank you everyone."

She took the Yubai Pagoda, because she was standing in the brightest part of the stage, and everyone could only see a silhouette. She saw that Zhou Shengchen gently put his right leg on his left leg, and adjusted his sitting posture.

"I'm not very good at words," Shi Yi said modestly, "So, I just thought of saying thank you. I hope my voice can always dub for every movie, TV series, documentary, and translation of yours."

So simple, so simple, everyone thought she hadn't finished.

So, they are still waiting quietly.

Shi Yi was silent for a while, and had to raise the corners of his mouth to say thank you again.

Then Wei Wei raised the tower-shaped trophy in her hand.The moon-blue floor-length dress was supposed to be full of spring, but she insisted on choosing a retro style from the cuffs to the elbows. There was only one accessory on her body, which was the jadeite necklace that Zhou Shengchen gave her when she met Zhou Shengchen's mother that day. The emerald green seems to be able to drip water.

There was no deliberately generous and natural smile, and there was even a feeling that she couldn't wait to leave.

Everyone, only then did she realize that she had really finished speaking.

In the belated applause, she left the stage, holding the long skirt, and came down from the brightest place.There are already popular artists on the stage behind them, performing under the constant spray of dry ice.

Shi Yi quietly walked to him from the darkness under the stage.

Seeing that she was wearing high heels, Zhou Shengchen reached out, gently held her hand, and led him to sit by his side.

"Why are you sitting here?" She just sat down and asked softly into his ear.

He pondered for a while, and felt that the position he made was too eye-catching: "I just told them that I want to surprise you, and sit where I can see you clearly. This is Uncle Lin's arrangement."

She was dumb, and laughed softly: "Do you know where you are sitting?"

"I probably guessed it." He looked a little helpless.

"Then... shall we leave now?"

"You don't need to wait until the end?"

"No need," she shook her head, "I don't care."

Only he, an outsider, felt uncomfortable for him in this noisy place.

Zhou Shengchen turned his head and glanced at her.

She looked at him puzzled.

"Today, my mother asked me why I wanted to be engaged to you."

She hummed.

"I said, you are very suitable for me."

Because of the noise here, the two of them were almost whispering in order to hear each other clearly.

When he said this, his voice was right next to Shi Yi's ear, and he could even feel a faint warm breath.Some of her ears were hot, and gradually her face was also hot.Unable to sit still, he gently moved his hand.

Since sitting down just now, he has been holding her hand unrelentingly.

She moved, Zhou Shengchen naturally felt it, he smiled to himself, got up and led her, and walked towards the side door quietly.The eye-catching position, and Shi Yi, the most stunning beauty tonight, are enough to attract attention.Shi Yi felt that many people were looking at this place, and looking at him, Zhou Shengchen looked calm and breezy.

They left the hall, and there were even discussions.

Especially those sitting in the first row did not expect that such a mysterious guest was just for a voice actor.But thinking about it again, with the appearance of the time, this is not too much.Neither delicate nor glamorous, neither vulgar nor arrogant, she should go to the fairy heroine in the costume movie, someone asked softly: "One of the four major female voices in mainland China, I didn't expect to be so beautiful, who is her manager?"

"Meilin from Dongshi," the latter laughed, "I can't believe that she has such a trump card in her hand, and she hasn't won it yet, and I don't know what she is waiting for."

"What are you waiting for?" The man shook his head, "You are ignorant. The string of old-fashioned emeralds around her neck tonight is enough to make another golden armour. I guess it's because she doesn't want to come out."

The latter was stunned: "No wonder, a gold medal manager like Meilin can bear it and not praise her."

Shi Yi didn't know that Zhou Shengchen's sudden appearance made her a hot topic at the celebration banquet.

Someone privately revealed that the person sitting in that position was surnamed Zhou.

Going deeper, no one is familiar with his background.

It was less than nine o'clock when they came out.

The car drove out of the garage, and there were many people waiting at the entrance of the Grand Theater.The lights are bright and the cars are coming and going.

Uncle Lin asked if he wanted to try on a dress, but Zhou Shengchen was noncommittal.

"Trying on a dress?" Shi Yi was a little strange.

He took her detailed measurements and sent all kinds of dresses, even retro styles that were not too revealing, similar to her taste.So much, it's really enough to get engaged ten times, but you still have to try on the dress?
"I saw you wearing this dress tonight, and thought it looked good," he said frankly, "so I made a temporary appointment with the tailor of this dress, and wanted to make you a new one."

"Is this one bad?"

"Very good," he laughed, "just, when I suddenly want you to get engaged, wear new ones."

She was stunned.

It wasn't until the car drove out of Shanghai that she began to wonder if he wanted to take her back to Zhenjiang.Fortunately, she recognized the road to Zhenjiang, but it was not in that direction, but to an unknown town.

This place is not like a big city, which is brightly lit at night, and there are only one family with its own lights on.

Shi Yi was wearing a dress and Zhou Shengchen's suit jacket, got out of the car and walked for a while, and arrived in front of a small house.Looks like a resident rather than a gown sewing shop.She looked around suspiciously, and Zhou Shengchen finally explained: "This family has been tailors for more than a dozen generations, and it is the same for the younger generation."

Shi Yi thought for a while: "Don't tell me, there are some hidden international designers here."

"That's not true," he laughed, "their family background is also very rich, and they no longer need to sew clothes for others. It's just that the ancestors can't lose the family's handicrafts. The younger generation likes these things, they will go to study abroad, and then come back to inherit the family Industry."

"So, Chinese and Western are perfect." Shi Yi looked down at his dress, "No wonder, all the clothes you sent are very special, but also exquisite and scary, unlike ordinary dresses."

Not long after Uncle Lin knocked on the door, someone opened the door.

Seeing that it was Uncle Lin, they all called out respectfully, but they didn't recognize Zhou Shengchen.

They followed into the courtyard, which was not very big.Bluestone ground carvings, stone gate towers, and low floors are all hidden in the trees.Fortunately, the lanterns had already been replaced with retro wall lamps, otherwise Shi Yi would have suspected that a woman in red would walk out somewhere.

Shi Yi said softly: "A yard like this is still like an old house in the south of the Yangtze River."

Zhou Shengchen said, "You mean, my ancestral house doesn't look like it?"

Shi Yi shook his head: "Your house is so big, I can't even count how many people entered it."

He nodded: "Sounds like an upstart?"

She shook her head and said solemnly: "It's not an upstart, it's like a Hong Kong movie ghost movie shooting location."

He shook his head and laughed: "There are no permanent residents there, only when people go back to worship ancestors."

"Is there usually someone watching?"

"Every generation will have one, and basically the oldest housekeeper will take care of them for the elderly," he said. : "Mr. Lin, sit here first, I'll call my wife." Uncle Lin nodded: "Tell my wife, the Lord is coming today, and I have to choose the clothes myself."

The old mother responded and went, and soon someone brought tea.

Just as Shi Yi and Zhou Shengchen picked up the teacups, before they had time to take a sip, they saw two men and two women coming, except for an elderly mother-in-law, the other three were all young people.There were two men, one was wearing a robe, the other was in a suit and leather shoes. Those who didn't know it thought they were on the set of a Republic of China movie.On the other hand, it was a girl, wearing a simple t-shirt dress and holding a picture album in her hand, which was quite normal.

It was only in that era that we could see such a mixture of Chinese and Western clothes.

Shi Yi was a little stunned, the eyes of the robed man swept away and landed on Shi Yi: "I guess, this must be Miss Shi Yi." The girl laughed: "Nonsense, only this is a girl, of course it is her. Here, second brother, she is dressed like you, this time second brother won."

"You three," the old woman smiled and waved her hands, "you must respect the guests."

The old lady came over and saw Uncle Lin standing on one side, so she probably understood Zhou Shengchen's identity, she nodded with a smile, "Master, I met you when you were four years old. Over the years, I have made a lot of clothes for you , but I haven’t seen anyone, I didn’t expect to see you again, and I brought a bride.”

Zhou Shengchen wanted to get up, but the old woman took her seat first: "Grandma, I have bad legs and feet, so I have no rules and sit down."

"Mother-in-law, please go ahead," he didn't care much, "Sorry for coming so late."

"It doesn't matter, you are a busy person, scientist," the old lady looked at him admiringly, and said with a smile, "As for the Zhou family, they are much smarter. So are the older generation, and so are the younger generation."

They chatted for a while, and the old woman began to look at Shi Yi seriously.

Although Zhou Shengchen had given some measurements earlier, it was nothing compared to seeing a real person. Clothes must match the person after all, not only the size, but even the appearance and temperament.Having been making clothes for a lifetime, it's really rare to meet Shi Yi with such a good figure and appearance, so she is naturally happy, not only the old lady, but also those grandchildren, who look at Shi Yi as if they are looking at treasures.

I re-measured the size, because Shi Yi was a girl, so naturally the girl in casual clothes got close to her, whispered to her about the details of the clothes, and even brought various materials to comment on suggestions one by one.

"Shi Yi, your legs are so long," the girl said with emotion, "I remember, I have a cousin who was admitted to a dance school and required that her legs be 14 centimeters longer than her upper body. You probably exceeded the standard by 2 centimeters."

She smiled.

From the beginning to the end, except for the mother-in-law who has inconvenient legs and feet, no one really sat down.

It seemed that they all respected Zhou Shengchen.

During the whole process, Zhou Shengchen sat quietly at the side.

Be very patient.He didn't read the book, and occasionally talked a few words with the old lady, and expressed his opinions in the inquiries of several young designers.It was already two hours later when we left.

This place is not far from Zhenjiang, Shi Yi thought that she would probably stay in Zhenjiang for one night.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shengchen insisted on sending her back to Shanghai.

After seeing the lights in her room come on, he sat back in the car.

If it wasn't an extraordinary time, he wouldn't want to travel such a long distance to send her back.

He suddenly said, "I hope that she will be safe all the time."

Uncle Lin nodded: "Eldest young master, don't worry, everyone in Zhou Sheng's family is waiting for the engagement day. Before that, nothing will happen to Miss Shi Yi, otherwise, everyone will suspect Zhou Shengxing, and he will not make such a bad plan."

Zhou Shengxing has been in power for more than [-] years, and he is thoughtful and scheming.

He really wouldn't do that.

Zhou Shengchen waited until the lights in her bathroom went out and the lights in the bedroom came on, then habitually glanced at her watch.

This time it took 38 minutes.So... the time she is used to should be between 25-38 minutes.

Uncle Lin continued: "Zhou Sheng's family rules are strict and no one dares to break them. Don't worry, young master, Zhou Shengxing dare not give up power."

He put his hand on the edge of the car window and said, "Let's go."

There are no lights in the car, only moonlight shines in through the windows.

very quiet.

Uncle Lin drove the car on the road and drove steadily, "Why does the young master suddenly want to turn the situation around? To attract capital against the market and support Jiangnan's economy." Zhou Shengchen spoke slowly because he was tired, "In five to ten years, China no longer has the cheapest labor in the world, and inland manufacturing factories are closing one after another. Made in China will become made in Cambodia, made in Vietnam. The huge unemployed population will cause a huge impact, and we must buffer it in advance.”

Uncle Lin was silent.

This young master is different from others.

Since he entered university at the age of 14, he was destined to be different from others. 5-10 years of adverse market investment requires a huge network of people and capital.Now it is only a foreign surname and a group of staff who are acting on behalf of Zhou Shengchen, but such a long-term project must require his real support, and this move will inevitably violate Zhou Sheng's family rule that he is not allowed to engage in business.

If there is no such uncle as Zhou Shengxing, perhaps, it would be simpler.

Shi Yi originally thought that he would return to Zhenjiang during the day and come back late at night as before.Unexpectedly, the next morning, when she came back from the hotel gym near the apartment, Zhou Shengchen was already waiting downstairs.She was a little surprised, but he said, "I'll accompany you to have breakfast." At seven o'clock in the morning, a person suddenly appeared and said he wanted to accompany you to have breakfast.

She suddenly felt that this scene was very similar to those young men and women who appeared downstairs in the dormitory and beside the school cafeteria when they were studying.

Unfortunately, unfortunately, she has already eaten.

But he was still hungry.

Shi Yi tentatively asked him if he wanted to go upstairs, so she could make him some casual breakfast?Zhou Shengchen did not refuse. After she took him upstairs, she belatedly realized that there was only milk and some fruits in the house.On the shelf in the kitchen, there was Nestle's custard star. He poured out half a bowl, poured the milk, cut up a plate of fruit, and served it to him.

Sitting at the table in the restaurant, he looked down at the lovely stars in his milk, feeling a little dazed.

"I don't know, are you used to eating this?" Shi Yi was a little embarrassed, sticking out his tongue lightly, "It's delicious."

"Get used to it." He couldn't help laughing.

She was afraid that he would not have enough to eat, so she took out the box specially.

Zhou Shengchen deliberately glanced at the instructions above: 6-12 years old edible.

He laughed, lowered his head, scooped up milk and stars, and started to eat.

She accompanied patiently.

If you look carefully, you can see the faint tiredness between his brows, and his face is also pale.Shi Yi couldn't help stretching out his hand, wanting to touch his forehead, but he noticed it, and raised his eyes slightly to look at her.

Brief silence.

She didn't know whether to withdraw her hand, or to test the temperature of his forehead calmly.

Just when she was wandering awkwardly, Zhou Shengchen approached lightly, and in cooperation, pressed her hand.

She touched his forehead.Sure enough, it was hot.

"It's a low-grade fever," he said.

She hums.

They held hands, all in public.

At this moment, in the bright and quiet restaurant, she suddenly touched his skin, and her hands trembled uncontrollably.Fortunately, he left quickly, and he didn't notice: "Have you not retreated, or have you caught the cold again?"

"Never back." He put down his spoon.

She pondered for a few seconds.

He looked at her funny: "You want to make me a medicine bag again?"

"It doesn't work now," she looked at him regretfully, "That's perilla leaves, soaked in water to drink can dispel the cold. But now you are no longer simply cold and hot, you should finish drinking last time and sleep here for a night Khan, it will be over soon." After Shi Yi finished speaking, he reflected that his wording was very ambiguous, although he was going to be engaged, but it seemed that he and him had more relationship than friends just now.

If it is staying overnight...

Zhou Shengchen didn't seem to notice the difference, and continued to eat fruit, moving slowly: "Sleep for one night? Maybe I won't have such a full time to sleep."

"What about now?" She asked suddenly.

"Now?"

"Well," she said, "you just ate something, and in twenty minutes, I'll give you some medicine to reduce fever, sleep in the guest room, and the fever will subside." Her eyes looked at him, but serious.

Zhou Shengchen was a little surprised, but quickly nodded: "Alright, I haven't slept well for about a few months."

Shi Yi's proposal was really for his sake.

So I didn't feel anything, I just vacated the guest room quickly, changed him into a clean bedding, and talked to him without saying a word.When he had taken his medicine and was in bed, she would come out of the room and clear away the dishes for breakfast.

In the cool water, she slowly washed the dishes.

It still seems to be his appearance.His eyebrows are delicate, his facial features are not deep, only the bridge of his nose is straight, and he was very quiet when he was lying on the bed, as if he had just closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.So calm, you can even feel his complete trust.

Just when she put away the washed dishes, she remembered that he would definitely sweat after taking the medicine.

What to do when you wake up.

Do you still have to wear sweaty underwear?

As soon as she thought, she heard someone knocking on the door.When he opened it, it was Uncle Lin, and he didn't say too much, he just said that he sent the clean clothes that the young master always prepared.Shi Yi felt relieved, and admired his rigor even more, he was well-prepared for everything, and he did everything impeccably.She put the clothes into a clean rattan basket, pushed open the door of the room, and put them in.

This apartment is very well designed, both the master bedroom and the guest room have their own toilet and bathroom.

She thought, without reminding herself, Zhou Shengchen would definitely take a shower when she woke up.

Throughout the morning, because Zhou Shengchen fell asleep in the guest room, her heart seemed to be floating, unable to settle down, so she simply took a box of DVDs and started watching TV dramas.Her work is busy and tight, and she can't be like her mother. She sits in front of the TV on time every day and catches up with TV series. She can only rest, find some interesting movies, and watch them from the beginning to the end, so as not to worry about them.
