I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 590: Eat, Sleep, and Watch the Waking of Zhe

"At 18:00 today, the Central Meteorological Observatory officially issued a blue warning for high winds, and the Maritime Search and Rescue Center reminded ships sailing and operating in waters affected by high winds to pay attention to navigation safety.

Pedestrians and vehicles should avoid staying under tall buildings, temporary structures such as billboards, or trees."

The radio in the living room was broadcasting today's weather forecast live. Su Chengyi leaned on the sink with both hands and looked at himself in the mirror.

The buttons at the collar of his shirt were tightly buttoned, and he had shaved his beard carefully this morning. His hair fell straight down his forehead, slightly blocking his pair of clear black and white eyes.

It seems to be in normal condition.

Su Chengyi commented on himself today.

In fact, all his facial features except his eyes were inherited from Yang Liu, and at first glance he looks delicate and non-aggressive.

Just don't pay too much attention to his scary dark pupils, otherwise he'll look very oppressive if he frowns a little.

It has been a while since he last returned to his hometown in Tang'an City. Compared to the house that Miss Chu bought for him, this place feels more like home.

Although the yellowed walls and peeling tiles show the traces of time, the furniture is even more outdated, and some are even older than Su Chengyi himself.

Starting some time ago, Yang Liu came over almost every week to clean the house for him so that he wouldn't be inconvenienced when he suddenly returned home.

However, although she was the one who came to clean, the main person who did the work was probably Lin Zhiwan, who was always very meticulous.

Therefore, the bed sheets and other items are all brand new and there is not much dust in the house.

As soon as Su Chengyi got home after getting off the plane last night, he went to sleep.

This time I slept from around 2 a.m. until the next afternoon, for more than ten hours. When I woke up, I felt as if I was in another world. In a daze, I thought I had returned to the first day of my rebirth.

Thanks to this very comfortable sleep, the fatigue from the previous period seemed to have been "recharged", so the person in the mirror looked in pretty good condition.

The purpose of returning to Tang'an City this time is very clear, to attend a banquet, a family banquet of the Chu family.

Although Chu Qingmian told him that there was no need to rush this matter and she could postpone the date for a while.

But in Su Chengyi's original plan, the best time to attend the banquet was after the annual game awards ceremony. He wanted to take advantage of the east wind to burn Chibi, and there was no reason to postpone it because of cowardice.

Therefore, he gave the eldest lady a positive and clear answer.

Just today.

When it comes to the appointment I’m going to keep today, the first thing I have to remember is four important words: keep a low profile and be humble.

With the emergency vaccination Han Bing gave him last time, although Su Chengyi did not get any encouragement or comfort from it, it did deepen his stereotype of most people in the Chu family.

All in all, this is the most rude and arrogant capitalist you can imagine. The inspiration for the TV series really comes from reality.

As Miss Chu's chosen boyfriend, Su Chengyi is now attending the banquet in a lavishly dressed up outfit, and he is sure to be the focus of the banquet.

In this case, there will definitely be many people who are good at doing things and will not let him go easily. They will have all kinds of deadly moves waiting for them, so it can be said that they are sharpening their knives.

However, Miss Chu repeatedly promised that she would protect him, and also emphasized:

"If someone makes you feel uncomfortable, don't be patient, just speak up! No matter who it is, I will handle it for you. Believe me, Su Chengyi."

Chu Qingmian’s words were certainly convincing enough. Besides, the young lady now was no longer the young and immature young lady of the past.

After officially confirming his identity as the heir and standing on the stage, King Mian now has plenty of strength and means.

In addition, the most difficult and mean opponent, Wei Peilan, is not an opponent this time but a half-teammate.

Wei Peilan should know that now that Chu Qingmian's attitude is fully understood, it will not do her any good to embarrass him in front of everyone, so logically speaking, there is no need to be too nervous.

However, the arrow is on the string.

Su Chengyi turned on the faucet. Just as the sound of running water interrupted the radio broadcast, the cell phone in his trouser pocket began to vibrate.

Su Chengyi did not answer the phone immediately, but looked down at his watch.

Every second counts.

He turned off the faucet, walked out of the bathroom, put on the suit jacket hanging on the back of the sofa, and walked to the window sill.

The black Rolls-Royce Phantom downstairs blends well into the darkening night. Although it is very low-key, it still exudes an aura of wealth from the wheels to the taillights.

As if in response to his gaze, the car lights flashed twice briefly.

Su Chengyi understood, turned around, closed the door and went downstairs.

As soon as I went down to the third floor, I ran into my neighbor in the stairwell who was coming back from the vegetable market with a vegetable basket.

"Oh, is this intentional?"

The neighbor first greeted him with a smile, and then noticed his formal attire.

"Hello."

Su Chengyi greeted her politely, but in his heart he thought to himself, "Oh no!" He couldn't remember how to address this aunt. Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to be paying attention to this.

"Ah! Where are you going so late?"

The neighbor asked curiously, taking out an orange from the basket and handing it to him.

"Come and try some oranges that were just picked today. They are so fresh!"

For neighbors in such an old city, there is no sense of boundaries, but this is also why there is a sense of human touch that is hard to find in high-end apartment buildings.

Su Chengyi did not hesitate. He said thank you and took the orange.

"A friend wants to meet up."

"Oh my, young people are full of energy! Go home early and don't hang around outside. It's not safe!"

The aunt who was buying groceries laughed and showed an expression that said "I'm an experienced person" and moved aside to make way for him.

Probably he understood it as some kind of gathering among young people. Su Chengyi guessed most of it, but he was too lazy to explain. He nodded slightly and then hurried downstairs.

The aunt followed his steps out of the apartment building with curious eyes, and saw him walk towards the luxurious-looking car without hesitation.

The passenger door opened and a middle-aged man in a suit and tie got out. As soon as he got out of the car, he bowed respectfully to him and bent down to open the back door for him.

The young man didn't seem surprised by the other party's attitude. He nodded calmly, bent down and got into the car, behaving as calmly as when he had just accepted the oranges she had given him.

The aunt was still holding her basket of vegetables and was a little unaware until the Rolls-Royce engine started and slowly disappeared into the night at the corner of the alley.

After a while, she looked down at the bag of oranges in her basket.

Oops, I should have given two more.

Su Chengyi sat in the back seat, and the first thing he did was to look up and admire the starry sky ceiling of the Rolls-Royce Phantom.

It’s been a long time since I last rode in Miss Chu’s exclusive car.

The driver was of course Uncle Gao. He was still wearing sunglasses and looked stern, but he seemed a little anxious for some reason. While waiting for the traffic lights, he would repeatedly drag his gloves from time to time, as if it was an unconscious behavior.

Su Chengyi certainly noticed this, but did not ask directly.

The person sitting in the passenger seat was Butler Han, who had just gotten out of the car to pick up Su Chengyi. Normally, he would be very busy as a butler when such a large family banquet was held. Therefore, his appearance here was probably the intention of a certain willful young lady.

From the moment he got in the car, Butler Han had been trying hard to strike up a conversation with Su Chengyi, and his conversation was very deliberately awkward.

Although he didn't know what he intended, Su Chengyi would still nod in response and occasionally give a simple answer.

"Master Su, long time no see!"

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"I watched the live broadcast of the award ceremony a while ago. You performed very well."

"Thank you."

"Tonight's invitation is just to have a simple meal, so don't be nervous."

"Ah."

It was the rush hour after get off work and there was a slight traffic jam on the road, which made Butler Han's awkward chat seem endless.

The back seat of the Rolls-Royce was designed to be very comfortable, and Su Chengyi felt that if he continued like this, he would probably fall asleep.

then.

He took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket and opened a certain Kiwi video app.

The update of "The Awakening" was exactly at six o'clock in the evening, and his watch just vibrated to remind him.

As the opening credits sounded, Butler Han in the front row turned around and looked at him with a little shock. He probably didn't expect that he would so directly show an attitude of "refusing to chat".

Sure enough, the social etiquette of adults is still too much of a burden for young people.
Before Butler Han could adjust his mentality, Su Chengyi raised his eyes and looked at the front mirror, then said:

"There seems to be a traffic jam, so I'm killing time. The new movie "The Awakening" was recently released and it's very popular. Does Butler Han know anything about it?"

His tone was casual, and it sounded like he was just talking about something casually.

Butler Han was slightly stunned, and then his professional ethics reminded him to quickly answer:

"Ah, of course I have! This is the hottest TV series recently, haha. It's director Caroline's transformation work. The Rainy Season she directed is my top 1 movie in life! Every time the rainy season comes, I can't help but take it out and rewatch it. It's really great.

By the way, has the updated episode of "The Awakening" been released today? Ah, yesterday I saw the little fat boy in the protagonist group enter the desert without permission."

Although his original intention was not to let the other person's words fall on the ground, when talking about the plot, Butler Han's tone became excited unconsciously. When he was about to lose control and brag about the subsequent development of the plot, Uncle Gao in the driver's seat suddenly coughed.

"cough."

It was quite abrupt, but it also successfully reminded Butler Han that now was not the time to discuss the plot with friends.

Su Chengyi in the back seat seemed unaware of the secret communication between the two and was watching the video on his mobile phone.

After the car became quiet again, Su Chengyi continued to tell the story slowly, not knowing whether it was intentional or accidental.

"Yes, it seems that today's episode will explain the distribution of forces in the desert map."

"Is it!"

Hearing him say this, Butler Han's emotions, which had just been suppressed, suddenly became excited again, and he slapped his thigh nervously.

Caroline's worldview has always been mysterious, and the map and worldview are improved step by step according to the protagonist's route. The sense of immersion is very strong, and every foreshadowing makes people feel anxious.

"Cough cough."

Uncle Gao stroked the steering wheel with his fingers and coughed again to remind him.

"There will probably be some new clues to the mystery of Georgia's origins. There was such a clue in the last issue's Easter egg."

Su Chengyi pretended not to hear and continued speaking.

"Really?! In this episode, Georgia has a lot of scenes? In the last episode, she only had a scene during the Easter egg scene."

Butler Han had turned 180 degrees, stretching his neck to try to see his screen, his tone very urgent.

Su Chengyi glanced at the front row at the right time. Even though Uncle Gao in the driver's seat was wearing sunglasses, one could still tell that he looked helpless at the moment.

Su Chengyi found it quite funny for a moment.

But this cannot be blamed on Butler Han. If anything, it is to blame the fact that the drama "The Awakening" is too addictive.

According to the shooting format of American TV series, the whole series has only twelve episodes, each episode is about an hour long, and the sixth episode has been broadcast now.

Almost all viewers who follow the drama in real time have the same mentality as Butler Han.

Too hasty, everyone is so anxious for the king.

The plot rhythm of "The Awakening" is extremely compact and exciting. There is no water in the one-hour length, and every shot has its reason for existence.

Therefore, while waiting for updates, many viewers will choose to re-watch the previous plots.

"Eat, sleep, and watch "The Awakening."

This has become the norm for most viewers, while a small number of people are gritting their teeth and holding on, waiting until the end to feast their eyes.

Su Chengyi pulled the progress bar and roughly judged the content of this episode by the thumbnails below.

That was the case on the surface, but in fact, his real purpose was mainly to see if there were any shots of Georgia, also known as Miss Chen Jinzhi, in this episode.

Sure enough, it really exists.

When the progress bar was halfway through, a close-up shot of Chen Jinzhi flashed by. Although most of her face was blocked by the scarf, her peach blossom eyes were very lively, like a cunning and cute little fox.

Then this episode should be more popular than the previous one.

Thinking of this, Su Chengyi tentatively clicked on the barrage. Sure enough, just a few minutes after going online, the barrage had already flooded the page.

“Front row photo!!!”

"Good evening, everyone."

"Milk tea, warm bed, bath finished, "The Awakening" update, who knows?!"

"Ahhh I finally saw baby Iris ahhhh I missed you so much!!"

"Georgia, Georgia, Georgia~"

"What should I do? I haven't even started watching it yet and I'm already worried about what I'm going to do after I finish. Help."

"Don't go ahead, I've already rewatched the first five episodes three times!"

"I'm here to see Jinzhi on time! Why are there so many rivals in love in the barrage?! Draw your swords, gentlemen!"

It’s so lively.

Su Chengyi couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.
