Chapter 30 New Year's Eve in the Capital
Days passed by, and filming quickly progressed to December 31st. Tomorrow is January 1st.
Because filming has been progressing smoothly recently, the director gave the actors and crew a day off. After filming wrapped up on the morning of the 31st, everyone took a break in the afternoon.
Therefore, Xu Ying decided to return to the capital to give his junior sister a surprise.
He first went to a nearby shopping mall and bought a lot of snacks that Jing Tian liked, filling the entire trunk of the car.
Then, he drove towards the capital.
Around the same time as last time, an hour and a half later, Xu Ying arrived at the residential area where Jing Tian lived.
Xu Ying had just parked the car when the phone rang. It was Jing Tian calling.
He answered the phone and heard Jing Tian's slightly excited voice: "Senior brother, guess where I am?"
That voice sounds so happy, could it be that they went to the film set?
Xu Ying asked with some surprise, "Junior Sister, you didn't go to Zhuozhou, did you?"
"Yes, yes!" Jing Tian said happily, "Senior brother, you guessed it! Come down quickly, let's go celebrate the New Year together."
Xu Ying sighed and said, "Then do you want to guess where I am right now?"
The phone suddenly fell silent.
A few seconds later, Jing Tian's incredulous voice came from the other end of the phone: "Senior brother, you're not in my neighborhood, are you?"
"Yes, just wait for me in Zhuozhou, I'll come pick you up."
Immediately afterward, Jing Tian quickly said, "No need, just wait for me downstairs, I'll be back soon."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Ying sent Jing Tian a message.
[Xu Ying: I wanted to surprise you, but it's such a coincidence.]
Jing Tian: It's okay, senior brother, we're just too in sync.
On the other side, Jing Tian, although she did not see Xu Ying immediately, did not lose any of her excitement.
After telling the driver that she was returning to her residence, she stood on tiptoe, humming a song, and said to Chai Biyun, "My senior brother actually went to our neighborhood! Indeed, love requires a two-way exchange. What my senior brother said is so true."
Chai Biyun put a hand to her forehead, looking quite helpless, and said to Jing Tian, "Sweetie, you're really hopeless."
Jing Tian tossed her head and snorted, "I don't need anyone to save me. It's clearly me who's here to save my senior brother. Let's go, let's go back to the capital now."
Xu Ying certainly wouldn't foolishly wait outside Jing Tian's house.
After learning that Chai Biyun was also with Jing Tian, Xu Yingxian went to the flower shop outside the community and ordered an extra bouquet of flowers.
Then we went to Jing Tian's favorite hot pot restaurant, ordered hot pot, and took it away.
By the time Jing Tian returned from Zhuozhou, he was almost starving.
December in the capital city is really unusually cold. After leaving the hot pot restaurant, Xu Ying carried his things to the downstairs of Jing Tian's house.
Not long after, Jing Tian and Chai Biyun arrived in a hurry.
Xu Ying noticed that Jing Tian was carrying a bag, but couldn't tell what it was.
Xu Ying smiled and waved the hot pot in his hand at Jing Tian.
Because there were many things, he placed the flowers on a nearby chair.
Jing Tian ran over with eyes full of surprise. She said timidly, "Senior brother, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Today she wore a beige short fleece jacket, fluffy and light, and straight-leg jeans that accentuated her figure.
The bulky look commonly seen in winter has vanished from her body.
"Wow, so many snacks!" Jing Tian made no attempt to hide her joy. "Isn't this going to make me gain weight?"
Chai Biyun took the initiative to pick up the snacks, saying, "If you can't finish them, I'll help you share the load, Tiantian."
"These were all bought for both of you, so there's a share for each of you."
"And here are the flowers I prepared for you two. May you be as beautiful as flowers in the new year. And these snacks too."
Jing Tian smiled brightly and said, "Thank you, senior brother."
"Thank you, senior brother." Chai Biyun was pleasantly surprised to receive flowers. She whispered to Jing Tian, "Senior brother is indeed different from others."
Jing Tian revealed a satisfied look, proudly raising her chin, "Of course~"
"Senior, let's go upstairs. This is a gift for you. You can open it later."
Jing Tian held the flowers in one hand and naturally took Xu Ying's arm with the other.
Seeing this, Xu Ying was somewhat surprised. Had this young lady recovered?
When they arrived at her doorstep, Jing Tian said shyly, "Senior brother, please wait a moment at the door while we check the cleanliness of the house."
"Yunyun often stays at my place, so I need to check carefully!"
After saying that, Jing Tian quietly nudged Chai Biyun.
Chai Biyun quickly replied, "Yes, I've made a huge mess at home, so I need to tidy it up. Please wait a moment, Senior Brother."
"Senior, take a look at the gift first~ We'll be done right away~"
"OK."
As Xu Ying received the gift from Jing Tian, he seemed to see a pink and tender interior through the gap in the door that had just closed.
Yes, it's definitely a girl's house; it's just different.
Xu Ying opened the gift; it was a watch.
The Cartier Ballon Bleu, Xu Ying couldn't remember if it cost 40,000 or 50,000. This watch has a classic and stylish design, and he had bought one for himself before.
Wow, no wonder she's a rich girl, she's so generous.
Xu Ying took out the watch and put it on his wrist; it really suited his current state.
He didn't have to wait long. The door opened, and there was Chai Biyun. Jing Tian had gone to take a shower.
"Senior brother, these are your slippers. Tian Tian prepared them a long time ago," Chai Biyun said softly.
Xu Ying looked at her in confusion. "You betrayed your best friend so easily?"
"Oh dear, didn't my senior brother give me flowers?" Chai Biyun understood Xu Ying's look and said shyly.
"I'll keep it a secret, Junior Sister Yun."
"I'll go prepare the hot pot. Please make yourself at home."
Xu Ying changed into slippers and walked into the living room, just like the ones she had glimpsed earlier.
The whole room was decorated in pink and pastel colors, with pink sofas, pink curtains, and various bright decorations in macaron colors.
I never would have guessed that my junior sister likes these bright colors; it's quite different from her usual style.
It's clear that most of these pieces of furniture are quite expensive; money really can buy anything.
Xu Ying walked towards the study, which was a bit messy, showing the panic she had just caused while tidying up.
The bookshelf was piled high with books, and there were many pearl ornaments on the table, which looked like they had just been bought and temporarily placed there.
There are many photos, including pictures of Jing Tian when she was a child, as well as some of her photos from dance competitions.
Xu Ying then remembered that Jing Tian seemed to have graduated from the Beijing Dance Academy, but chose to apply to the Beijing Film Academy instead.
The photo shows Jing Tian as a tiny version of herself now, very cute, and she smiles brightly in the award photo.
The room was filled with the atmosphere of a young girl.
While waiting, Xu Ying didn't feel bored and picked up a book to start reading.
Girls tend to be more meticulous when bathing than boys, and this must be understood.
They also want to show you their best side. Xu Ying has always been patient when it comes to girls.
