After Exchanging Shadows - Chapter 170

Chapter One Hundred and Seventy-Lifting the Bar

The recording time of the variety show was short, only two days. Ruan Yesheng lived in Xi Mo’s house before going to Sichuan, and when he came back, he was as familiar with the road as he was back home.

When they got home, it was late at night, and Zhou Wenxu and another helper helped them send their luggage into the main building. Usually Xi Mo only eats dishes made by Aunt Lan at home. Now Aunt Lan hasn’t come back, and Xi Mo didn’t eat much on the way back. Ruan Yesheng opened the refrigerator and made a low-calorie supper for the two.

The cold wind roared outside, and the weather forecast said it would snow, but there was no sign of snow. The weather was cold and wet. Xi Mo was sitting at the table, eating the supper prepared by Ruan Yesheng for her, but he was very warm.

When she used to live at home, Aunt Lan accompanied her. Now Aunt Lan is absent and replaced by Ruan Yesheng. This feeling is new to Xi Mo.

Jian Xian passed away when she was very young. She regarded Aunt Lan as half of her mother. Aunt Lan gave her more of her motherly affection.

But Ruan Yesheng is different.

Now living with Ruan Yesheng, Xi Mo feels that the atmosphere at home has changed. It is like holding a cup of hot milk in winter and drinking iced honey lemonade in summer. Everything seems to come from Comfortable and invigorating pores.

Whether Xi Mo sits, stands, walks at home, reads a book, or exercises, he can feel that even the particles floating in the air seem to have a pleasant breath.

“There are still a few days to go to Beijing. Just stay with me before that, don’t go home.” Xi Mo took a bite and said.

Of course, Ruan Yesheng was secretively happy, but he still said: “I haven’t been back for a long time. I can’t live anymore. The house has mushrooms.”

“Just live for a few days.” Xi Mo frowned: “What mushrooms can grow.”

Ruan Yesheng laughed.

“I am safe here, there are walls, surveillance, and security.” Xi Mo said: “Even if Yang Zhen and Ding Qihong are staring at us, they can’t get close. There are cameras outside, and they will be scrupulous.”

Ruan Yesheng knew that Xi Mo was thinking about her own safety, so she was worried that she would go back to live. But she was still a little greedy. If Xi Mo didn’t keep her for this reason, but simply wanted to stay with her for a few days, that would be great.

Even she was not satisfied for a few days.

Also want…more.

“Well, do you want to take time to go to the nursing home these days? Once the next movie is filmed, there won’t be so much time.” Ruan Yesheng understands Xi Mo’s obsession, which was vaguely seen from Zhang Dongyang’s painting before. There are actually two people on the truck. If you don’t figure it out, Xi Mo can’t make it through.

“Yes.” Xi Mo nodded, but worried: “It’s easy to go to the nursing home, but Zhang Dongyang has always been guarded by my dad’s people, so we can’t find a chance to get close. I used to be a cleaner pretending to be a ward. , Go in and take a peek. We have to ask questions this time. It doesn’t work. And the risk of pretending to be a cleaner is too great. I just happened to be undetected at that time.”

“Why are you afraid of being discovered?” Ruan Yesheng asked her softly.

Xi Mo was taken aback.

She was suddenly stopped by this question.

Yes, why should she be afraid of being discovered? It was her father Xi Ji who guarded Zhang Dongyang, and Xi Ji never said that she was not allowed to visit him, but she went secretly at that time.

“Xi Mo.” Ruan Yesheng’s eyes were gentle, she was like the hand that untied Xi Mo’s heart knot, and gently pulled with her fingertips, loosening the knot in Xi Mo’s heart that had been tightened over the years. : “You are too far away from your father. But have you ever thought that he actually doesn’t want you to be so far away, he just doesn’t know the way.”

Xi Mo was silent.

Ruan Yesheng said: “At that time, we exchanged bodies. I was in contact with your father as you. I can feel his care for you, but he is not good at words and expressions. As you grow up , And demanding too much of you, making you too in awe of him. And you communicate with him like me, don’t you feel that he is actually a very gentle person?”

“…I know.” For a long time, Xi Mo said, “I just haven’t gotten used to it yet.”

“I believe in Uncle Xi.” Ruan Yesheng thought of the two books Xi Ji had put in the greenhouse, and wanted to laugh: “One would quietly watch “How to Become a Kind Father” and “How to Communicate Normally with Children” Even if he is not a good dad to you, he will never blame you because you are going to the nursing home to find Zhang Dongyang to investigate the truth. You don’t have to be so nervous and will be discovered. Maybe you can directly and honestly with him Speak clearly and say you are going to ask Zhang Dongyang. We walked into the ward in a fair manner. What do you think?”

Xi Mo looked at Ruan Yesheng.

This feeling is like she is walking alone on the road, stumbled from a young age to now cautiously. But Ruan Yesheng walked towards her midway, holding her hand and walking with her.

She realized that she was lonely only because she was in the dark before, thinking that there was no one around. And Ruan Yesheng’s colleagues brought light to her, illuminating a corner around her.

Xi Mo finally saw clearly that this road was actually not alone, there were still many people.

There are secretly protected by Yan Tinghuan, as well as Cui Jiayu, Lin Tingyu, Lin Tingshuang and other Shanghai sisters who are in love with each other. She went to Heizhugou, Sichuan. She even changed her mind about Shen Qing, and now she even Shen Qing. He and Yu An are in the ranks of “Shanghai’s sisters who love each other.”

All this is changing subtly, and when Xi Mo is really aware of it, he suddenly realizes that this road is already so lively.

She even saw her father Xi Ji, who was actually on this road. It’s just that there was no light before. She was blinded by the darkness. Now that the gentle and bright light shines, she can see clearly.

The haze that Xi Mo had deposited for many years seemed to have dissipated a lot, and she felt a kind of relaxation like a whole body wash: “I will talk to my dad and tell her the clues I found.”

“It’s so late, he should have fallen asleep long ago.” Ruan Yesheng was sincerely happy for Xi Mo: “You call him tomorrow.”

“Good.” Xi Mo nodded.

In order to keep in shape, she hardly eats midnight snacks, even if they eat low-calorie snacks, it is not really good, but now this midnight snack, she tastes it with relish.

Early the next morning, both of them went to the gym to exercise, sweating all over, and only had breakfast after the morning bath.

Gu Ru’s script was sent to them every day, and it was always in the middle of the night. Ruan Yesheng couldn’t wait to open Gu Ru’s news every morning, just like watching the update serial, and he was so anxious. Because she wanted to watch the follow-up, but was appetized by Gu Ru, she had to read the script part of the day repeatedly. As a result, the script quickly became overwhelming in her heart, and the impression was more profound than the previous one at a time.

In the morning, Xi Mo called Xi Ji.

After the call was connected, the other party had no voice, and Xi Mo was a little nervous subconsciously, and took a deep breath before saying, “Dad.”

“Yeah.” Xi Ji answered very calmly, “Lu Qingming said you are back from Sichuan.”

“Yes, I arrived in the middle of the night.” Xi Mo tried to chat with Xi Ji, but he was still a little uncomfortable: “Are you busy today?”

“Not very busy.” Xi Ji said, “I grow flowers in the greenhouse.”

“What do you think of the seeds that Ye Sheng gave you last time?” Xi Mo was really speechless and reluctantly turned the topic to Ruan Yesheng.

“The seeds Xiao Ruan gave are very good. If she is free, you can invite her to the manor for dinner.”

“…Okay.” Xi Mo glanced at Ruan Yesheng next to him: “I will tell her.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Xi Mo didn’t know how to talk, so he mustered up the courage to get straight to the point: “Dad, I have something to discuss with you.”

“what?”

Xi Mo usually resembles the flower of kaolin, in front of Xi Ji, it is just like a small flower in Xi Ji’s greenhouse, a little flinching: “When I was in college, I actually went to a nursing home quietly, and then I asked the driver Zhang I found a painting in Dongyang. This time I found that the painting has clues. I want to… tell you.”

There was a complete silence on the other end of the phone.

After a while, Xi Ji said, “I know you have been there. At the time, my people told me that they saw a strange cleaner entering the room and behaving incorrectly, so I asked them to check it and found that it was you.”

“You…know?” Xi Mo was stunned: “Aren’t you scolding me then?”

“Why reprimand?” Xi Ji didn’t have any extra explanation, just said.

Xi Mo was a little moved. It turned out that Xi Ji knew about it, but he didn’t blame her, and never even mentioned that in the face of such a father, she had no reason to go to the nursing home to ask Zhang Dongyang as a tricky thing. .

As Ruan Yesheng said, she just had to walk in naturally.

No one will stop her.

“I looked at the painting in a different way and found that Zhang Dongyang seemed to have painted two people on the truck.” Xi Mo had no worries and said: “There was probably one person on the truck at the time, but No one knows the trace of that person. I want to go to the nursing home and ask Zhang Dongyang to see if he responds. If there is really another person, that person is still there and is sober. After I find him, can I investigate What happened?”

“No need to ask Zhang Dongyang.” Xi Ji said.

Xi Mo didn’t say a word, trying to figure out Xi Ji’s mood at the moment.

However, Xi Ji said: “I have already asked, and there is indeed one person. Zhang Dongyang often draws pictures, and I have carefully read each one. He often drew abstract representations of two people in a truck. I tried too much later. Then, when I asked if there was another person, he reacted a lot. He kept shouting that it was not him but that person.”

Xi Mo was completely stunned.

It turned out that Xi Ji already knew all the clues she had finally found.

In fact, as long as she was willing to communicate with Xi Ji before, she could get a lot of news from Xi Ji, but she didn’t do that, but chose to check it secretly. Looking back now, how naive the previous self was.

“Then have you found some clues about that person?” Xi Mo asked hurriedly.

Yi Xiji’s character, after learning that there were indeed two people in the truck cab back then, would definitely investigate further.

“I’m still investigating.” Xi Ji’s words sounded a little tired, as if investigating the person had already consumed too much effort for him.

Xi Mo knew that her father’s methods had allowed Xi Ji to find nothing. Who was the other person on the truck back then, and why he could hide so well, leaving no clues.

Xi Ji said: “In the future, you can ask Zhang Dongyang what you want to ask. You can also call the caretaker of the ward and ask him to start the video. You don’t have to go in person because you don’t have to go in person. .”

Xi Mo’s mood is extremely complicated now, he is a little lighthearted, like being rewarded by his parents for a good test score, and a little ashamed, ashamed that he had too many misunderstandings about Xi Ji before.

Her father was not as cold and harsh as she thought.

But I really just don’t know how to communicate with her or say anything. It is true that Xi Ji’s communication is problematic, but it is not that his method is improper.

“Thank you Dad.” There was a smile in Xi Mo’s eyes.

Ruan Yesheng saw the smile in her eyes on the side, and smiled.

“Hmm.” Xi Ji simply responded.

“I can also… ask you in the future?” Xi Mo said carefully.

Xi Ji was silent again before saying, “Yes.”

“I will go to the manor to eat with Ye Sheng tonight.” Xi Mo offered.

She suddenly wanted to have dinner with Xi Ji and look at her father. In addition, most of the letters and gifts Ruan Yesheng gave her were still in the manor, and she wanted to go back and find them.

“Good.” Xi Ji just said.

Xi Mo and Xi Ji said a few more words before ending the call.

“How is it?” Ruan Yesheng looked at Ximo with a daze, and said, “I said that your father loves you very much.”

Xi Mo’s lips tickled, and he told Ruan Yesheng what she had heard from Xi Ji. Ruan Yesheng could hear a lot from the side just now, and now he got a more detailed explanation. Also dignified.

“Zhang Dongyang doesn’t seem to be important, that talent is the key.” Ruan Yesheng said, “How do you find him? Your father has been looking for him for so long, and he didn’t even have a slight brow.”

“I don’t know either.” Xi Mo frowned.

“Let Uncle Xi investigate first. He has a wide range of knowledge and must be better than us.” Ruan Yesheng comforted her: “You can ask Uncle Xi later, if you find anything, you can also tell Uncle Xi, don’t be as restrained as before. .”

“…Um.” Xi Mo also answered vaguely.

In this regard, she and Xi Ji did have a temper.

“Tell me back to the manor in the afternoon. I told my father.” Xi Mo put down a stone in his heart, feeling a lot easier: “What do you want to eat, I tell Aunt Zhou, let her prepare.”

“By the way, you bring a change of clothes. We live there tonight.” Xi Mo turned around and added: “I want to find… the letters and gifts you gave me.”

“Then what if I still can’t find it this time?” Ruan Yesheng was bright in his heart, but his face was aggrieved.

“…That can only be lost.” Xi Mo’s eyes floated.

Ruan Yesheng looked at her and smiled.

At noon, there was another meal for two people. It was simple and simple. The dishes made by Ruan Yesheng fit Xi Mo’s appetite and are relatively healthy, making it suitable for actors like them.

However, Ruan Yesheng sighed as he ate, “I really want to eat the knuckle with sauce, but this year’s portion has been prepaid.”

Xi Mo lowered his head, with a smile in his eyes.

The two were eating lunch, but the door of the main building opened, and a person came in through the door. The man changed his shoes at the door and felt that the heating was on at home, so he leaned forward and said, “Xi Mo, why don’t you tell me why you are coming back.”

“Aunt Lan.” Xi Mo hurriedly stood up and walked over.

Ruan Yesheng also put down the tableware and kept up.

Although Aunt Lan is not young anymore, she has exquisite makeup on her face, and she can fully see the charm of her back then, and her figure is also very good. She caught a glimpse of Ruan Yesheng with surprise in her eyes, and quickly walked to Ruan Yesheng: “Miss Ruan Ruan, it’s been a long time since I saw you. I didn’t expect to see you here.”

When Aunt Lan was speaking, there were some Shanghainese particle endings in Mandarin, which had a small taste of Wu Nong’s soft language.

“Hello Aunt Lan.” Ruan Yesheng smiled softly: “It’s been a long time since I saw you. Have you had lunch?”

“I haven’t eaten yet.” Aunt Lan saw Ruan Yesheng, as if she had seen a friend who had reunited after a long time, and smiled and pulled her to sit aside: “You are getting more and more beautiful.”

“Thank you Aunt Lan.” Ruan Yesheng lowered his head and smiled, “You are still as beautiful as when I met you in college, you haven’t changed much.”

Aunt Lan waved her hand very self-knowingly, listening to this sweet and coaxing remark, but exuberantly: “I’m almost old.”

“I heard that you are back in filming. I also saw you participating in a variety show in the hot search of Xi Mo’s sweaters. I am happy for you. You are so talented, how can you not make a film? Red.”

Aunt Lan said, staring at Xi Mo again: “Why are you going to get a sweater? If you want a sweater, tell me, I’ll call you.”

Xi Mo: “…”

“What kind of sweater do you want?” Aunt Lan asked her.

Xi Mo: “…”

“You child, I won’t talk when I go home.” Aunt Lan frowned, and put her hand on Ruan Yesheng’s shoulder: “Look at Miss Ruan Ruan, how good you are, it’s not like you are stubborn all day long. You don’t laugh so much, you have to learn more from Miss Ruan Ruan.”

“Auntie Lan, I…” Xi Mo stopped talking.

When Aunt Lan was here before, I didn’t see any harm to her like this. When Ruan Yesheng came, Aunt Lan saw that Ruan Yesheng was better. I don’t know how close Aunt Lan and Ruan Yesheng were before, but I can see that Aunt Lan likes Ruan Yesheng very much.

“I’m telling you, you can’t bully Miss Ruan Ruan in the future.” Aunt Lan saw Ruan Yesheng, probably thinking of the past, and said to Xi Mo seriously: “When you were in college, you always bullied her. I’m filming together now, friends, I can’t do that anymore, or I’ll blackmail you for a few days.”

“I…I didn’t bully her.” Xi Mo was dumbfounded.

“Why didn’t you bully her?” Aunt Lan was upset: “If you ignore her, you are bullying her. Miss Ruan Ruan is such a lovely person who sent you so many letters and gifts. Fans’ gifts are mixed together. How are you like this? How can Miss Ruan’s letters and gifts be put together with fans’. It’s okay. I think Miss Ruan cried that time because of you.”

“How do you know the letter and the gift?” Xi Mo said hurriedly.

“Why don’t I know.” Aunt Lan said: “Ms. Ruan Ruan knew me very well at the time. She once asked me what gifts you like, so I just said, I should go shopping with Miss Ruan Ruan. You picked it.”

“Ye Sheng?” Xi Mo was stunned, looking at Ruan Ye Sheng.

Ruan Yesheng smiled and nodded: “…I told you everything, I used to know Aunt Lan. She and Uncle Ding are very good to me.”

Aunt Lan thought of something, and she blamed him: “Ms. Ruan Ruan often went with me when she was in college, and I even made dumplings for her. But Miss Ruan visited me less often, just calling me on New Year’s holidays. Call, send me a gift, I thought about it later, you must have bullied her, she knows that I want to take care of you, it is not convenient to come to me.”

Xi Mo: “…”

“Aunt Lan, sorry.” Ruan Yesheng apologized hurriedly.

“Nothing to be embarrassed. You young people have young people’s ideas, and your career and life are getting busier and busier. It’s normal not to see each other. How can it always be like when you are studying.” Aunt Lan looked at Ruan Yesheng The more I like it, even though I haven’t met many times over the years, Ruan Yesheng is very polite, and every year he will give her and her brother Ding Ru gifts, as well as phone calls and news.

Xi Mo still felt weird: “How do you know that Ye Sheng’s gifts and letters are mixed with fans’ gifts? I didn’t know it was from Ye Sheng, and I have never seen it before. Have you read it? “

“Of course I have seen them. I recognize Miss Ruan Ruan’s gifts and letters. She has a special mark.” Aunt Lan glared at him, “I did you clean up those gifts and letters. How can you mix them up?” “

“Did you clean it up?” Xi Mo shivered.

Ruan Yesheng was also stunned.

“Yes, on the day you moved from the Xi’s manor, I helped you stare.” Aunt Lan said: “You asked those fans to box away the gifts and letters, and I saw one of Miss Ruan Ruan’s The gift box has a mark on it. Just let those people search through the things that belonged to Miss Ruan Ruan to see if there are any other omissions. As a result, it turned out a lot. I was very angry at the time. You don’t cherish it. “

Aunt Lan was indeed there when she moved.

“Where are those gifts and letters?” Xi Mo asked hurriedly.

“Of course I have asked people to help you put them in a box. Miss Ruan Ruan’s gifts and letters must be put in a special place.” Aunt Lan said: “I was going to teach you a few words at the time, otherwise you will not be long. Memorable, but that day your mother’s relics were exposed, and you were not happy sitting there, and I can’t tell you, just help you fix it.”

Only then did Xi Mo understand.

No wonder she didn’t see any of Ruan Yesheng’s gifts and letters at home. Even if she didn’t know the situation back then, she mixed them all together. When she moved, it was because her mother Jane’s relics were also being exposed. It’s the same, but it may happen that the wrong move occurs, and it is impossible to miss all of them, because the gifts and letters are scattered, and even if several boxes are mixed, only a part of them may be lost from the probability.

Unless those gifts and letters have been specially selected and combined in a box.

Then this box was confused with the box containing Jane’s relic that day, and was sent back to the room where the relic was kept by the family.

Otherwise, Xi Mo could not find a more reasonable explanation.

The more she analyzes this way, the more her mood becomes more vigorous, which means that Ruan Yesheng’s gifts and letters will basically not be lost. She only needs to search for her mother Jian Yu’s relic room.

Such a large box will not be lost.

“I will remember it later.” Xi Mo said frankly, “I won’t be mixed up again, especially in one place.”

Ruan Yesheng knew that his gifts and letters were probably not lost, and he was very happy. The light in his eyes was sweet when he looked at Xi Mo.

“Aunt Lan, are you hungry? I will cook and we will eat together.” Ruan Yesheng stood up and invited.

“Then I want to try your craft, Miss Ruan Ruan.” Aunt Lan followed her to the dining table and said with a smile: “You used to cook well in college.”

Ruan Yesheng served Aunt Lan a meal, and the three of them sat down at the table.

Aunt Lan was eating and chatting with Ruan Yesheng with a smile. Xi Mo didn’t say much when eating, and didn’t dare to speak at the side. She was afraid that Aunt Lan would be very faceless if she attacked her in front of Ruan Yesheng.

“Miss Ruan Ruan, have you talked about your boyfriend yet?” Aunt Lan asked with a smile.

The rice in Xi Mo’s mouth almost blocked his throat: “…”

Why is she panicking.

Aunt Lan even let Lu Qingming go on a blind date. Before Lu Qingming ran to the female side and said that he had no plans in this regard, and said that the woman was crying, Aunt Lan blacked Lu Qingming for half a month.

“No.” Ruan Yesheng smiled.

“You are so beautiful, you must be chased by many people.” Aunt Lan is very enthusiastic: “Then you have to be more careful. My brother also invested in entertainment companies. Some female stars are attracted by rich second-generation or rich people. It’s not good for the other party to have some personality. Miss Ruan Ruan, if you meet someone like that pursues you, tell me and I will help you touch the other party’s bottom.”

“Who said Ye Sheng must fall in love with the rich second generation or the rich?” Xi Mo said unhappily.

“The male stars in that circle should be cautious.” Aunt Lan said contemptuously: “This year, it’s not all hot searches that cheat by so or so. Some people really suck.”

“She might not be with a male star.” Xi Mo said coldly.

“The amateurs should also pay attention.” Aunt Lan said.

“She may not be with an amateur.”

Ruan Yesheng tried to suffocate a smile, what exactly was Xi Mo doing.

“Xi Mo, what’s the matter with you today?” Aunt Lan glared at Xi Mo: “You and I always scold you, don’t you think I won’t scold you? Look at Miss Ruan Ruan, it’s different from you .”

Xi Mo: “…”

You will not scold me.

You just frustrated me.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Xi Mo: Ye Sheng wants to fall in love, but also to fall in love with female stars.

Ruan Ruan: Which female star?

Which female celebrity could it be, that’s the one who drove up!
