Rival In Business - Chapter 90
01
Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan spent the Spring Festival in S city in the first year after marriage.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the atmosphere of the new year on the street is getting stronger and stronger. There are stalls selling New Year pictures and writing Spring Festival couplets in the alleys. Children in new clothes throw cannons into the snow, cover their ears and run away shouting, “Bang! “With a sound, the cannon exploded in the snow.
Lin Yifei went to City B to record a certain party, and hurriedly arrived in City S on the morning of New Year’s Eve.
It’s Chinese New Year, but there are still only a few fans at the airport. She walked through the normal channel, chatted with the fans who came to the airport for a while, and signed the photos they handed over.
“Happy New Years Baby!”
“…You are not as old as me, little sister!”
“Happy New Year Wife!”
“Be careful and don’t let Xu Shuyan hear you.”
“Have you received the New Year’s money, baby?”
“Wait for Xu Shuyan to give it to me.”
“How come the three sentences are not separated from Xu Shuyan!”
“She is my wife!”
Fan Wei: “Ah, it hurts my heart! But the female goose is really cute! Xu Shuyan seems to be able to bring happiness to the female goose, woo woo woo, the female goose is even more beautiful when bathed in love!”
Until a certain CP fan boldly handed over a photo of the two of them: “Xiaoyi! I wish you and Yanyan a happy new year!”
Lin Yi took the photo and looked up.
Eyes bent: “Thank you.”
The tip of the pen touched Xu Shuyan’s clothes in the photo, like a stamp, she signed her name on it, drew a smiling face, and returned to CP fans: “You are too, happy and happy!”
After going out from the airport and taking the car sent by the company, Lin Yi saw the message Xu Shuyan sent her: “When will you get home? All the flowers I’ve been waiting for are gone.”
Lin Yi returned a kissing expression: “Thank you, show me?”
Xu Shuyan probably was really idle and bored, staring at the dialog box all the time, seeing Lin Yi’s message and immediately replied: “You only care about this! You don’t care about me QAQ”
Lin Yi: “…Don’t do this.”
Xu Shuyan: “Huh?”
Lin Yi: “Have you chopped the dumpling stuffing?”
Xu Shuyan made a proud expression: “Of course. Can I not complete the task you assigned me? It’s just that the voice is a bit loud, and Zhou Shichen thought I was destroying the corpse…”
“Listen to her nonsense!” Lin Yi was filled with indignation: “Anyway, her wife can’t chop dumpling stuffing! Be jealous!”
Xu Shuyan: “Hmm!”
Xu Shuyan: “They can only eat quick-frozen dumplings, so pitiful!”
Xu Shuyan: “But I heard from Shichen that they have places to eat dumplings, but they don’t know where to go to eat and drink.”
Lin Yi: “…”
Lin Yi reminded him friendly: “Is there a possibility that you come to our house to eat?”
Xu Shuyan: “…?”
Xu Shuyan: “Go and change the combination lock immediately.”
Lin Yi couldn’t help laughing, looking at the passing years outside the window, everywhere was booming, everyone was welcoming the new year with joy, and the vehicles were rushing towards a place called home.
Xu Shuyan is waiting for her.
This knowledge satisfied Lin Yi’s heart like never before. She held her face in her hands and couldn’t wait to run to Xu Shuyan’s side. But I don’t want the more anxious I am, the more things will backfire-the traffic jam.
“It’s almost here and there’s a traffic jam.” The driver looked at the long convoy in front of him: “I don’t know how long the traffic jam will end.”
Lin Yi was also anxious: “Or I’ll get off from here.”
The driver let out an ah.
“You just take me there, I’ll just walk over this way.” Lin Yi said, she came and went in a hurry when she went to record the show this time, she didn’t bring much luggage at all, only a single shoulder bag solved everything, She rolled up her scarf, opened the car door, and said, “I’m sorry, happy new year!”
After she closed the door, the driver came to his senses and shouted, “Happy New Year, Teacher Lin!”
Lin Yi waved his hands without looking back.
After all, I have lived here for many years. Although I may be followed when I go out and go home, the little girl loves to play and often sneaks out, leaving the community to take some night scene photos in the alleys and find some small paths. .
These days the temperature has dropped, and the snow has been falling heavily. The new snow is piled up on the side of the road, and it is dirty from being stepped on by children playing and running past. Lin Yi put on a mask and hat, wrapped tightly It wasn’t abrupt, she walked into the alley while talking on the phone with Xu Shuyan, and when Xu Shuyan answered, she happened to be standing in front of the Spring Festival couplet writing booth.
“Little girl, come for the Spring Festival couplets? It’s free.” The old lady who wrote the Spring Festival couplets had a ruddy complexion. She was wearing a red down jacket and her high ponytail was tied up, looking very young.
“Wow!” Lin Yi was pleasantly surprised: “Auntie is so amazing!”
The old lady was proud: “That is, tell me what you want to write, and I will write a copy for you right now.”
“Then I won’t be polite to auntie.” Lin Yi walked around the table and said, “I want this. Every year is a safe day, and every year is a happy spring. Thank you, auntie.”
The old lady picked up a pen: “Okay!”
The old lady was talkative, chatting with her about everyday things, Xu Shuyan was also listening on the other end, after listening for a while, he said with a smile: “Lin Yi, why don’t you let me listen to people’s chatter with you?”
Lin Yi hummed calmly, and heard the old lady ask: “Is there a partner? No aunt to introduce you!”
Xu Shuyan was anxious: “You have!!”
Lin Yi smiled and said, “Yes, they are already married.”
The old lady was a little regretful: “You little girl, you have a nice voice, big eyes, sweet talk, and temperament. Whoever marries you will be very blessed!”
Lin Yi was so flattered by the praise, she couldn’t help but turned sideways, and whispered to Xu Shuyan, “Whose blessing?”
Xu Shuyan also smiled: “Mine.”
After the Spring Festival couplets were finished, the old lady gave an extra blessing, a bag full of them. Lin Yi felt embarrassed and said, “Auntie, you gave too much, I…”
“It’s okay, it’s New Year’s Eve.” The old lady said with a smile, “I’m going home soon.”
Lin Yi didn’t pretend anymore: “Happy New Year, Auntie!”
The old lady waved her hand: “Happy New Year and Happy New Year!”
Lin Yi exited the alley from another exit. Looking back, she saw someone helping the old lady to clean up the stall. Seeing that she was about the same age as her, they should be the old lady’s children. Lin Yi sighed lightly.
“What’s wrong?” Xu Shuyan asked.
“I’m thinking…” Lin Yi’s boots creaked on the clean snow, she looked at the nearby neighborhood and said, “I’m thinking that if my mother is still alive, she should be about the same age as this aunt, Be a happy and beautiful old lady, go to the square dance, write Spring Festival couplets, play mahjong, and celebrate the New Year.”
She laughed again as she talked: “Maybe you don’t do anything, you just know that you are in love with my dad, huh!”
Xu Shuyan laughed: “Then you are too busy dating me, okay?”
Lin Yi brushed her face and entered the community, her steps briskly said: “Okay.” She had a wonderful idea: “Maybe there really is such a parallel world, my mother is still alive, and my growth trajectory is completely different, but,”
Xu Shuyan: “Huh?”
Lin Yi said seriously: “But you must remember to find me, fall in love with me, and marry me.”
Xu Shuyan deliberately asked: “Why?”
Lin Yi: “Because a little girl like me has a nice voice, big eyes, sweet voice, and temperament. Whoever marries you will be very blessed!”
This is a repetition of what the old lady praised her for.
Xu Shuyan smiled: “It makes sense.”
Lin Yi got on the elevator: “Really?”
Xu Shuyan hummed: “Then I promise you, no matter which parallel world we are in, Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi will be together, celebrating the New Year together, writing Spring Festival couplets together, eating dumplings together, playing mahjong, going to the square to be the best old lady dancing, OK?”
Lin Yi: “Good!”

As expected, Yan Qi and Zhou Shichen came to the house for a meal, they were justifiable, they were upright, they were lawless—
When entering the door, Zhou Shichen was still doing a live broadcast: “Happy Chinese New Year, my family! That’s right! Now that I’ve walked into Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi’s house, I can already smell the smell of dumplings, so virtuous, let’s talk!”
“What are you talking about?” Lin Yi was also busy putting up Spring Festival couplets, punishing Zhou Shichen: “Pay attention to your wording!”
Zhou Shichen shrugged to the fans in the live broadcast room: “Did you see it? This is the girl group!”
Yan Qi unhurriedly followed behind and changed his slippers, walked into the kitchen naturally, rolled up his sleeves: “Is there anything I can do to help?”
Xu Shuyan said: “Put down the dumplings.”
Yan Qi said, “Okay.”
Zhou Shichen held up his mobile phone: “Then what am I doing?”
Lin Yi said: “Feed our dog some food, and bring her to the live broadcast to see if she can become a star dog.”
Her dog is already an adult, and she can’t bear the burden of throwing herself into Zhou Shichen’s arms, but she has a sense of camera, sticking out her tongue and looking at the phone cheerfully: “Wow!”
Lin Yi posted the Spring Festival couplets in the bedroom, and translated: “She said Happy New Year!”
Zhou Shichen: “…”
Gouzi: “Wow!”
Lin Yi: “She said she wished all brothers and sisters a happy and smooth new year!”
Zhou Shichen: “?”
Gouzi: “Wow, woof!”
Lin Yi: “She said that today’s live broadcast will end here, see you next year!”
Zhou Shichen: “I don’t have anything to do with co-authoring?!”
But it did come to the end of the live broadcast. She hugged the dog in her arms and made the closing remarks: “I wish everyone a happy New Year’s Eve. I want to eat dumplings and watch the fireworks. See you next year!”
She stood up, reversed the camera, and pointed at the kitchen: “Two chefs, what do you want to say to the fans?!”
Xu Shuyan compared his heart: “Happy New Year! Continue to like Thenotes in the new year and support us!”
Yan Qi also imitated her hand gestures and said: “Our comeback album is being prepared, and it is expected to be released in August. There will be a physical album and a concert. Let’s look forward to it!”
After speaking, I continued to make dumplings.
Zhou Shichen: “… Is there something you forgot to say?”
Yan Qi was stunned: “?”
Zhou Shichen gritted his teeth: “Happy New Year! Happy New Year!”
Yan Qi snorted, “Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai.”
Zhou Shichen nodded in satisfaction, and turned to walk towards Lin Yi who had just come downstairs. Lin Yi consciously came over and said, “Hi everyone! I’m Lin Yi! I wish you all a happy new year! Make a fortune!”
Zhou Shichen made an OK gesture, and said a few more words to the fans in the live broadcast room before turning off the live broadcast.
Throwing the phone on the sofa: “When will dinner be served!”
04
That night they watched the New Year’s Eve together.
Like every New Year’s Eve in the past, whether they were rushing to travel or idle in the dormitory, they sat on the long sofa, watched the boring Spring Festival Gala, and watched the beautiful and professional host count down the ten seconds.
Fireworks bloomed all over the city.
They have spent a year with each other.
05
In the second year after their marriage, both Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan received invitations to a large-scale live broadcast party, and they flew to City B to prepare for the program when they were young.
Lin Yi sang a song about reunion with Tianhou, while Xu Shuyan and Shen Mandong acted in a skit. Although the two are in the same city, they each have their own rehearsal location. Look.
During this period, there was a heavy snowfall in city B, and there was a lot of noise, and the whole city turned white in a short while.
Tianhou grew up in the south and had never seen snow much. She was surprised when she saw her. She took photos of her daughter during the break, and Lin Yi followed suit. She accidentally saw her and sent it to Xu Shuyan. She was stunned: “Is Xu Shuyan here?” City B?”
“Yes.” Lin Yi was embarrassed: “I just got used to it, and I want to show her everything I see.”
Tianhou nodded: “Understood, love is like this.”
She seemed to think of something suddenly, and said, “The road is slippery in snowy weather, and you don’t live close by. Why don’t you come here first today. Tomorrow is the last row, so protect your throat.”
Lin Yi’s eyes brightened: “Can I go now?”
Tianhou smiled: “I can’t wait so much? Are you going to find Xu Shuyan?”
Lin Yi blushed: “… It’s been a long time since I saw her.”
Tian Hou said: “Go, go, wear more, don’t play in the snow, don’t catch cold, drink more hot water.”
Tianhou is older than her, and when the two got to know each other, Tianhou treated her as her own younger sister. She was strict in rehearsals at work, but she was very friendly in private. She liked Lin Yi from the bottom of her heart. After saying a few more words, she reflected: ” Am I being too wordy?”
“No more!” Lin Yi happily picked up the bag: “Sister, then I’m leaving!”
While walking outside, I ordered takeaway, contacted Xu Shuyan’s assistant to ask her to help with it, and then took a taxi to Xu Shuyan’s rehearsal venue. When she arrived, Xu Shuyan was listening to the director’s lecture, and the sketch had high requirements for acting skills, so she had to hold back her smile At the scene, Xu Shuyan listened carefully and attentively.
Lin Yi stood at the door, looking at her through the glass on the door, his longing was surging like a tide, and he couldn’t hold back anymore.
As if feeling something, Xu Shuyan paused, raised his head and looked at her along the air, Lin Yi raised his hand and waved, then pointed to the side, signaling Xu Shuyan that she was waiting for her.
Xu Shuyan opened her mouth. The director opposite her noticed something, and looking back, Lin Yi nodded slightly as a greeting, but she didn’t expect the director’s eyes to light up, and she stood up with a bang.
Xu Shuyan supported his forehead, with a heartbroken expression on his face.
Lin Yi: “??”
In doubt, the director had already walked to the door quickly, opened the door, the heating in the room collided with the cold air outside, blowing Lin Yi into a daze, and the director had already held his hand: “Hello, teacher Lin Right? Please come in, please come in.”
Lin Yi: “…”
She was pulled into the rehearsal room by the director, looked at Xu Shuyan, heard Xu Shuyan’s footsteps approaching in the left ear, and heard the director chanting next to her in the right ear: “I really like listening to you sing, I have bought all your albums, I also went to see your concert in LA, the scene is a god!”
Only then did Lin Yi realize that she had met a fan, and she quickly said, “Thank you for liking, thank you, I also like your drama.”
The director chased after the idol’s death with no regrets: “Really!”
Lin Yi has indeed seen the films directed by him. He is one of the youngest new directors in recent years. The production volume is not large, but all of them are very popular and the box office is very good. At most, it is fun to watch as a popcorn movie. The details Analyzing the plot can also be thought-provoking, and he is an excellent director of trust.
“Are you here to see Teacher Xu?” the director asked.
Lin Yi let out a cry, Xu Shuyan held his left hand, his five fingers intertwined and clasped it, Xu Shuyan drew circles on her palm, Lin Yi distractedly felt it.
Xu Shuyan wrote two words: miss you.
Her heart softened, and she asked the director: “You are busy with your work, I will just wait by the side.”
The director said: “It’s okay, our side is almost over. The last rehearsal will let the actors go back to rest. Tomorrow will be the last rehearsal. We need to rest well and adjust our state.”
Lin Yi smiled: “That’s it, then I’ll wait a little longer.”
The director nodded and said, “That’s right, why don’t you be the first audience to watch our sketches, give us some suggestions, and we can make changes.”
Lin Yi agreed, turned to look at Xu Shuyan, and said, “Go.”
Xu Shuyan shook her hand: “Why are you here?”
Lin Yi said, “I miss you.”
Xu Shuyan’s eyes lighted up slightly, shining like stars, she knew that Lin Yi had felt the miss she had written in her palm, and felt comforted, so she continued to shake her hand: “Then wait for me a little longer, let’s go see the snow.”
Lin Yi said, “Okay.”
She coaxed Xu Shu: “Good acting, I’ll buy you candied haws.”
Xu Shuyan snorted: “You treat me like a child!”
06
Wait until rehearsal is over.
Xu Shuyan walked up to Lin Yi with a proud face: “How about it? I want candied haws and strawberries!”
07
It was snowing heavily, and when Xu Shuyan and Lin Yi went out, they had no intention of stopping. Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan sneaked out from behind. It was already late, and this side was also far away. There were few pedestrians, and only a few shops were lit. Light up.
It is also the specialty candied haws in city B, and there happens to be a candied haws shop.
Lin Yi asked, “How many skewers do you want?”
Xu Shuyan’s long eyelashes were covered with frost. She blinked and said, “One string is enough! Don’t treat me like a child! I’m not that greedy!”
Lin Yi deliberately coaxed her in a coaxing tone: “Well, eating too much will cause tooth decay, right?”
Xu Shuyan: “?”
What if my wife treats me like a child? urgent! Wait online!
Although he was reluctant, but really wanted to eat candied haws, he stood there and hesitated for a while, pushed Lin Yi, and said fiercely on purpose, “Hurry up and buy it!”
Lin Yi saluted her: “Good wife!”
In the end, I bought two bunches of candied haws, one made of traditional hawthorn and one made of strawberries. She said that she was afraid that Xu Shuyan would get tired of eating half of it and wanted to change the taste. Xu Shuyan pinched her face: “My wife is so caring?”
Lin Yi bent her eyes and smiled at her: “That is, reward me!”
Xu Shuyan said, “Come here.”
Lin Yi approached.
Xu Shuyan: “Come here again.”
Lin Yi approached again.
She didn’t understand why: “Why Xu Shuyan, this posture won’t change—”
Xu Shuyan chirped her.
Strawberry.
08
Performing on the largest stage in the country on New Year’s Eve, it would be a lie to say that I am not nervous. Lin Yi was so close to the daffodil for the first time, and poked Xu Shuyan who was watching the show next to him: “Do you think I should take a photo and send it to my dad to show off?” show off?”
Xu Shuyan also whispered: “I have already sent it to our family group.”
Lin Yi gave her a thumbs up.
Xu Shuyan reached out to grab her thumb, pressed it back under the table, sat upright reservedly, and moved his lips: “I will go up to perform a sketch later, if someone scolds me for my poor acting skills, please remember to empty the bottle for me.”
Lin Yi suppressed a smile and scratched her palm: “The empty bottle set has been prepared, let me see who dares to scold my wife?”
It happened that the sketch on the stage came to the point of laughter, and the audience burst into laughter. Xu Shuyan couldn’t bear it, grinned, and began to draw again in Lin Yi’s palm.
“When it’s over, let’s go out and watch the fireworks,” Xu Shuyan wrote.
Lin Yi blinked slowly and acquiesced.
Xu Shuyan wrote: “Don’t be nervous, all my applause is because of you.”
Lin Yi smiled, held Xu Shuyan’s hand behind her back, spread her palm on her lap, and drew one stroke at a time: “Lin Yi, love, Xu Shuyan. Forever.”
Then gently closed Xu Shuyan’s palms, lowered his head, and kissed.

Unexpectedly, this scene happened to be broadcast live, and the audience watching the party in front of the TV: “???”
[Damn it, Yanzhi intends to fall in love and talked about it in front of the national audience! 】
[Give me dog food on New Year’s Eve, right? 】

Lin Yi held Xu Shuyan’s hand a little harder, and she raised her voice: “Xu Shuyan!”

Lin Yi shouted: “Happy New Year! Now you can start making wishes!”
Xu Shuyan smiled: “Happy New Year.”
