Chapter 16 Cellophane Night 2
He is not the refined male entertainer or elegant successful person that Chen Xi has been used to seeing these years.Even Jiang Haishu complained, saying that he asked Wei Jia two days ago if he had men's moisturizing essence that he could borrow, and if not, water and lotion would be fine.As a result, Wei Jia handed him a hand cream.He asked Wei Jia, "Do you usually put this on your face?" Wei Jia said, "I only put it on in the dry winter."

So his hands are also rough.Calluses on the palms and burrs on the fingers are tiny and pleasantly painful when they rub against the skin.These hands are now at a distance where she can touch them at any time, as are his people, and she can still smell the fresh soap on his body.Chen Xi blinked, all she had to do was abandon the past and the future, all the memories of comfort in her subconscious were still there.

She suddenly settled down.

"I hate you especially when I'm not going well. The time when I fell off the horse in a costume drama and was changed roles; the guy who was slandered for taking drugs and spreading rumors received a lawyer's letter from me and apologized publicly. It was also the time when someone was eccentric; there was another time Sun Jianchuan's idiot powder blocked my door and threw coffee on my face. I was stunned at that moment, and thought she was throwing sulfuric acid. Although I have a thick skin, I can't stand the corrosion of sulfuric acid...I will be silent in my heart at these times I thought: Wei Jia, you bastard, why don't you die!"

"You didn't think about it 'silently' either. You didn't get the best actress in the last film festival, and you got drunk and called me for three hours in the middle of the night."

Chen Xi scratched her head. The last time she was nominated for Best Actress was four years ago. At that time, she was already married to Jiang Tao. She was newlywed, and it was considered the best time.

"Am I so shameless? I forgot." She decisively lost her memory, and looked at Wei Jia after a while and asked, "Was I very annoying back then."

Wei Jia said, "No. During that time, You Qingfen was in very bad condition. I needed to keep vigil in the hospital, and I couldn't sleep at all."

"Although I am the one who left, you don't want me first. You have to bear more."

"Ah."

"That's good! Several films that Jiang Tao and I invested in were restricted from release. I blame you for the failure of the gambling agreement; I also blame you for the bankruptcy; my husband died, and I was run over by his ex-wife. I can't even get on the plane. Everything is wrong." I blame you... now I can't get the whitening injection, and it's all your fault to become a nigga! I'm going to die, and you made me gain three catties a week!" Chen Xi said it very smoothly.

Wei Jia couldn't help laughing: "This is a bit too much... What is it for today?"

"It's nothing...the lawyer representing Jiang Tao's ex-wife and son called me this afternoon, and wanted me to reach a consensus with them on the division of the estate. They also made a lot of concessions. This matter has dragged on for long enough , after the inheritance is cleared, my financial situation will improve."

"You didn't agree, because..." Wei Jia didn't call the name, but turned his head slightly towards the direction of the room.

Chen Xi was not surprised that he could think of this level.As long as he is willing, he has been extremely transparent.

"His mother's identity is unclear, but he is indeed Jiang Tao's son. I can't do such a thing by selling his interests to protect myself." Chen Xi took another sip, "Although I Would love to do that."

"It's fine if you can't do it."

"It's easy to say. The school is about to start soon, and it turns out that the private school that is so expensive can't go back. He refused to listen to me and went to join Jiang Tao's uncles and brothers, and he couldn't throw him to his countrymen. Uncle, high school is still a year away, and he insists on following me, who doesn't know where he's going tomorrow, what's the matter?"

"Have you talked to him?"

"He said he liked the weather here, and he also said that I would find him a random school to study for a year. Big kid, what does he know!"

"So you're making decisions for him now?"

"I'm doing it for his own good..."

Chen Xi suddenly felt that these words sounded familiar, and then realized that she had fallen into his trap.Isn't this what she always used to complain about Wei Jia?People often stick to what they think is right and do cold things with a soft heart.Which hurts more, falling into a pit or being whipped away from danger?Most people will remember the latter.Because what was in the pit is unknown, and the whip actually fell on the body.

"I think he knows a lot. You may not be more mature than him at his age."

"It doesn't matter, he just follows me in a muddle-headed way." Chen Xi said angry words, but his heart was no longer so messed up.Wei Jia was right, she was much more unreliable than Jiang Haishu when she was 17 years old, and she is still living well now.

"Stop this bottle." Wei Jia finished his can of beer and refused to let Chen Xi open it again.

Chen Xi took two gulps like a demonstration.She loves to drink, but when she drinks too much, she tends to break down easily.Going out alone must learn to protect herself, so she is more cautious about alcohol and rarely allows herself to get drunk.In the past two years, she had almost quit, when suddenly she drank three cans of beer, her consciousness gradually became dull, but her mood became very light.The alcohol in her stomach seemed to turn into a pair of warm hands to hold her up. She flew very high without fear of falling.

"I finally smelled the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus downstairs." Her own voice seemed to be floating in the air.

"I have a perfume called 'Cellophane Night'. Jiang Haishu said that the smell is a bit vulgar, but I like it very much. I spray it on my pillow when I can't sleep. Aren't you curious what it smells like? Hmm...it It’s sweet-scented osmanthus at night, sweet and sticky, you smell the aroma, but you can’t find the kind of tree. It may be mixed with other flowers that bloom at night, pears that have been bitten, a little bit of earthy smell, freshly washed in summer Bathed flesh...wine and sweat."

"Why such a strange name?"

"I guess someone is trying to wrap the night in a transparent candy wrapper...I think I saw a firefly just now."

"You drank too much, where did the fireflies come from?"

"Nonsense, of course you didn't drink enough."

"Don't lie down here. Chen Xi, go back to your room and sleep!"

Chen Ximi stared blankly and felt something shaking her, but she still stayed in the night sky wrapped in glass candy wrappers. This sweet and mediocre taste made her easily satisfied.

"Actually, I didn't hate you at those times, but I just blamed you for not being here?"

……

Then the shaking stopped.The firefly lightly landed on top of her head, then flew away in an instant.

Chen Xi always carried that perfume with her wherever she went, on set, in hotels, in residences, from one bed to another.Only this time she forgot to go out.

Why would you forget?She thought, maybe it was the same reason as Wei Jia's reason for drinking tonight—maybe!
