once i loved you

Chapter 14

Because of the nature of part-time work and part-study, Hongbai Image only requires six hours of work every day.From [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the morning, take a one-hour lunch break, start again at [-]:[-], and leave around [-]:[-] in the afternoon.Time management is very loose, there is no one to supervise, and the time in place is entirely up to the individual.

Studio equipment, rental procedures are cumbersome.Therefore, many former students prefer to come early and leave late, look up professional materials here, or borrow cameras and lenses in the shed and the garden of the atrium to practice shooting.

Currently, Cen Xiao is not qualified to borrow equipment.In the first three days, she just sorted out the materials and entered the content into the computer as required, and at the same time, she also copied the key points and recorded them in the notebook. She would leave at about 04:30.It's not that she doesn't want to stay longer, but that Hongbai's LOFT is far away from her home, and it takes nearly four hours to commute every day.If she wanted to learn more and memorize more, but didn't want to go home late, she could only choose to improve efficiency.

However, it was inevitable that Dong Qianqian, who was sorting out the materials together, would be left out in the cold.She is the type who can't sit still. Almost every half an hour, she can't bear to find someone to talk to.Cen Xiao, who is also a woman and can find common topics more easily, does not have much spare energy to talk to her, so she can only choose to communicate with Xing Rui.Xing Rui's job at hand is not difficult, but extremely tedious.It's good that he likes beautiful women, but being harassed by her like this, he lost his patience.In the end, I had to say that I was busy with work, and locked myself in the office. Except for going to the bathroom, I rarely came out a few times a day.

Dong Qianqian, who had been "disgusted" by both ends for a few days, finally looked forward to her happy new year party.

On this day, not only all Hongbai's photographers in Beijing will be present, but some friends of Mu Lao and Mu Ziyue will also come to join in.

There are only four newcomers this year, and two people are in place, so it is not so much a welcome party, but in fact, it is more like entertaining old friends in the name of celebrating the newcomers.

A few days ago, Cen Xiao had informed Gu Weiye that he had no time.He asked her why, and she told him truthfully and simply.Since then, she has never heard from him even a little bit.

Taking care of Weiye's actions and personality, Cen Xiao didn't feel that he was angry.But since the first phone call between the two of them, he has never stopped contacting him for such a long time for any reason.

She was curious about the reason, and when she was not busy, she felt very empty in her heart, and she was surprised to have this kind of emotion.Cen Xiao didn't intentionally restrain the breeding of emotions, nor did he want to let them continue to develop.However, two hours before the party, she finally couldn't help sending him a message.

The ten slender fingers touch the screen like tapping the keys, and the content of the information has been measured and brewed for a long time in advance, and the content of the information will appear smoothly and naturally on the screen.

When she had typed it all in, she hit send.

There are many celebrities in the industry at the dinner banquet in the evening.

It was just an ordinary gathering, and Hongbai didn't plan to make it too grand.We only prepared exquisite drinks, beautiful music, and an elegant party environment.

At 07:30, the dinner officially started.

Smiling, Cen Xiao and Dong Qianqian held Mu Ziyue's arm, and were formally led into the hall where the party was held.

Dong Qianqian is wearing a bright red knitted dress, her ponytail is combed high to the top of her head, and 12cm high heels of the same color make her look taller, sexy and warmer.

Compared with her, Cen Xiao seemed too low-key.Apart from a pair of blue moonstone studs on her ears, she wore no other accessories.She was wearing a white round-neck sweater with lotus leaf sleeves on her upper body, and a black woolen dress underneath.Lingling's slender ankles only showed some clues from the slit at the bottom of the skirt when she walked slowly.

The styles of the two are completely different, like fire, flamboyant and gorgeous, like water, quiet and graceful, with heavy makeup and light touch, the guests are full of compliments, and they all jokingly say, should Hongbai Studio select this time? It might be intentional to release water, and two beauties were specially selected to come in.

Although it wasn't that his daughter was praised for her beauty, but she was a newcomer photographer under Hongbai's banner after all, Mu Ziyue felt very proud when he heard the compliment.

Next, after introducing a few more important guests to Cen Xiao and Dong Qianqian, he let them move freely.

Cen Xiao is not very good at smiling at strangers against his will. If he smiles for a long time, the muscles at the corners of his mouth will become stiff.Holding a glass of guava juice, she went outside to get some air, but she didn't notice a young man behind her, who came out with her.

It was a man with meticulously groomed hair. He stretched out his hand to Cen Xiao and introduced himself: "Hi, Senior Sister, my name is Chen Xize, and I am your Junior Brother."

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Cen Xiao stretched out his hand to shake him, and said with a smile, "But don't call me Senior Sister, I just came three days earlier than you."

"That's right." Perhaps because of being extremely thin, Chen Xize has high cheekbones and a sharp chin. He looks heroic, but lacks in affinity.Fortunately, he speaks slowly and with a gentle tone, which makes up for a lot of the alienation brought about by his thin appearance.

"Sorry I'm late. Don't know your name yet."

"Cen Xiao." I've always been used to telling strangers my first and last name without going out of my way.However, if the other party asked further, she would not guarantee whether she would still be so generous.

A large part of the reason why Chen Xize came to Hongbai was to avoid inheriting the family business.He raised his glass and touched Cen Xiao, thinking, if in the next year, it would be an unexpected good harvest to have such a girl who sees each other as companions.

After taking a symbolic sip of the juice, Cen Xiao felt a rush of heat surge up her nose. She apologized hurriedly in a vague voice, and sneezed with her head tilted.

"At this time, you shouldn't say sorry." Chen Xize took off his suit jacket, "As a vulnerable group, you should take the initiative to tell men your needs."

He was about to cover her with his own clothes, but another pair of arms rushed ahead of him, gently covering her body with a dark coat.

The sudden clothes were too big and heavy for her, causing her body to shake slightly. Fortunately, at this time, the person who put on the clothes for him was very considerate, stretched out his long arms, and gently hugged her shoulders.

"Cesis, if you take the initiative to wait for the lady to ask for it, won't it be too late?" Besides, not all girls will talk about their needs coquettishly all the time, such as Cen Xiao, Gu Weiye knows she won't.

With one arm around Cen Xiao, he lifted the other arm with ease, unbuttoned the top button of his shirt that made him uncomfortable, and looked at Chen Xize with a relaxed expression.

"Brother Gu! We haven't seen each other for more than a year. I really didn't expect to see you here today!" Chen Xize's unbelievable expression was full of excitement and excitement. If Gu Weiye hadn't hugged Cen Xiao, he would have come up to hug Gu Weiye , "She, is she your girlfriend?" He asked again.

"No."

"Not yet."

Cen Xiao and Gu Weiye denied it with one voice, and the other three people who stood opposite each other had completely different thoughts.

Among them, Gu Weiye was unhappy.

He let go of Cen Xiao, not touching her, but only pulled the lapel of his coat inward, pulling the clothes tighter for her, then put his hands down, turned to Chen Xize and said, "But it should be soon .” The corners of his lips rose, and he deliberately glanced at Cen Xiao.

Cen Xiao remained silent, like a tortoise, with his head so low that he almost shrank into his thick coat, unable to give any appropriate and reasonable response at all.

On the other hand, the stern-looking Chen Xize gave an enthusiastic expression of "I understand you". He looked indifferent, shrugged his shoulders with a smile and said, "Brothers and wives should not be bullied! I still understand this!"

Gu Weiye said: "Xi Ze, Cen Xiao is sick today, and he is not feeling well. There are reporters inside, so it is not convenient for me to go in and explain. You can tell Brother Mu for me, I will take him away first. Let's have a good reunion another day. "

Compared with a woman who has seen it, Chen Xize obviously values ​​the brotherhood he has played with since he was a child.When they were young, they grew up in a large compound. Other children thought he was too young and didn't take him to play. Only Gu Weiye didn't deliberately ask him to play with him, but he didn't object to letting him follow behind him. He will also stand up when someone wants to bully him...

Later, when Gu Weiye was engaged in the performing arts industry, they had fewer chances to meet each other.

Chen Xize knew Gu Weiye's personality very well.Since he was a child, he has been a clean freak. There are not many toys that he can see, but once he likes them, he will never throw them away again.

Chen Xize could see Gu Weiye's enthusiasm for Cen Xiao clearly.He reckoned that seeing Gu Weiye in Hongbai again in the future would not be difficult.So he didn't feel embarrassed, and said with a smile, "The spring night is too short", "Please cherish the predestined ones"... and sent them away.

The heating has been off for a while, Hongbai's LOFT does not have a central air conditioner, and no matter how many air conditioners are turned on, the heating effect is not effective.

As soon as she got into Gu Weiye's warm and comfortable car, the cold air in Cen Xiao's body collided with the heat inside the car, and the discomfort in her nose intensified, and she sneezed twice involuntarily.

"Why did you tell Chen Xize that I was sick just now?" He had been staring at her intently since he got in the car, she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say in the opening remarks, so she had to start with this silly question .

"When I put on your clothes, I touched your earlobe and felt very hot, so," he looked at her helplessly, and said with a smile, "I'm not lying. I have an early morning flight tomorrow, and the time Limited, sending you back too late will affect your rest. So I think, unless you are willing to spend the night with me, then our time may be sufficient..."
