Chapter 54 Gains a Little Fangirl Who Was a Movie Star
Every time Xie Zheng comes back, she stays for two or three days before going out to film again.
So every time she returned to Dongzhou City, she spent half the time at Xie Zheng's house and the other half at her love nest with her fiancé Zhou Yaoguang.
Xie Jian's apartment has four bedrooms.
When Xie Jian was renovating, he had the workers knock down the walls and transform the interior into two bedroom suites that were both private and allowed for mutual visits.
Xie Zheng is a celebrity and has a lot of belongings, so her bedroom was designed as a combination room and walk-in closet.
Xie Jian is a food blogger, and her room is designed as a bedroom plus a small study to facilitate her editing.
Xie Zheng was taking a shower, and Xie Jian consciously helped her sister tidy up her clothes and put them back in their place.
Xie Zheng came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel after taking a shower. Seeing the neatly tidied bedroom, she hugged Xie Jian and shook her vigorously, saying, "Xiao Jian, you are truly my fairy godmother."
Xie Jian frowned, ruthlessly removing her sister's hand, and said coldly, "Don't hug me, I don't like hugs."
"Xiao Jian is not cute at all."
After saying that, Xie Zheng walked to the dressing table and began a whole set of complicated full-body skincare procedures.
Xie Jian leaned against the dressing table and asked her, "How many days do you plan to stay this time?"
Xie Jian thought Xie Zheng would only stay for a few days after returning this time, but Xie Zheng said, "Zhou Yaoguang's mother is seriously ill and probably doesn't have much time left to live."
"I've paused my recent work and plan to stay in Dongzhou City to spend more time with Zhou Yaoguang and his mother."
Hearing this, Xie Jian was taken aback. "Sister, you're not planning to retire from acting, are you?"
Xie Zheng was sitting on a makeup stool, applying hair oil to the ends of her hair. Hearing this, she stopped and looked up at Xie Jian, saying, "In two months, I'll be 35."
Staring at her sister's fair, smooth, and wrinkle-free face, Xie Jian said, "But you are still very young. 35 years old is not old at all."
"Many artists in the industry only start to make it big at 35. Why would you want to retire from acting?"
“I am still young, but I am different from you. Xiaojian, you have no desire to settle down and start a family, but I long for a happy married life.”
Everyone has their own way of living.
Some girls enjoy the carefree and independent life of being single, but Xie Zheng has always loved children.
After her parents divorced, Xie Zheng was awarded to her father by the court. However, when she was 18, her father passed away in an accident.
That summer, on his way home from get off work, my father encountered a heavily pregnant woman jumping into the river.
Without the slightest hesitation, Mr. Xie took off his shoes and jumped into the river, grabbing the woman's arm and struggling to pull her to the shore.
but...
In an attempt to save herself, the woman stepped on Xie's exhausted father's head and climbed ashore.
When Xie's father passed away, her mother had already remarried, making Xie Zheng a de facto orphan.
Xie Zheng longed for family affection and the warmth of home.
Getting married and having children were major events in Xie Zheng's life plan.
Thinking of something, Xie Zheng gently stroked her lower abdomen and said, "Ever since I had a miscarriage three years ago, I have always wanted to have another child with Zhou Yaoguang."
"But the high-intensity work and strict diet control had long since ruined my health. In the past three years, I have not used contraception, but I have never gotten pregnant."
"If I don't retire from acting, get married, and focus on getting pregnant, I'm afraid I'll never be able to have children in my life."
Retiring from acting at 35 sounds like a real pity.
But for Xie Zheng, wasn't this a wise decision?
She has acted in so many dramas over the years that audiences have long been tired of her.
Besides, if you get a few years older, your choice of scripts will be limited.
A 40-year-old woman feels awkward playing a teenage girl, but too young to play a mother...
"I will retire from acting at the height of my fame, so that when my fans think of me in the future, they will only remember my youthful and beautiful self."
"Isn't this good enough?"
Xie Zheng is very open-minded about retiring from acting. "I'll work for another two years at most, then I'll retire from acting."
Knowing that her sister had made up her mind, Xie Jian felt regretful but still respected her sister's choice.
Xie Jian squatted down next to the dressing stool, put her arm around her sister's waist, and said, "Sister, you are my only family. As long as you are happy, I will support you in whatever you do."
“You’ve been dating Zhou Yaoguang for eight years, it’s time to get married.”
Dating, dating.
The longer you talk, the weaker your feelings become.
The difference between talking and being indifferent is only one stroke, but the changes between them are as vast as an insurmountable chasm.
Xie Zheng gently stroked her younger sister's head, feeling a pang of sadness as she thought of what her sister had gone through. "Xiao Jian, what about you? Aren't you really planning to try dating someone?"
Xie Jian shook her head immediately, "No. I want to be my sister's little shadow for the rest of my life."
The two sisters simply lay down on the same bed and whispered to each other.
As Xie Jian was falling asleep, she remembered Li Xi's instructions.
"By the way, sis, my new friend is your fan. Remember to sign an autograph for me tomorrow." Xie Jian yawned and said, "Just sign it on the baseball cap her boyfriend gave her."
When Coach Gu was mentioned, Xie Jian couldn't help but complain: "I forgot to mention, her boyfriend quit his job as a professor at a medical university to become our driving instructor and teach her to drive in order to pursue her."
"He also said that teaching a girl he likes to drive and accompanying her to take her driving test and get her license is a very romantic thing."
"I've never seen such a slutty and shameless man in my life, and the thing is, Li Xi is totally into this kind of thing!"
"I'm in the same car with them every day, and the goosebumps on my skin never go away..."
Xie Zheng burst into laughter, "Really? I bet your Coach Gu must be a real heartthrob!"
Xie Jian: "...How so?"
Xie Zheng hit the nail on the head: "You've always been very tolerant of good-looking people. You called him a slut and a slut, but you never called him ugly. You're even willing to sit in the car as a third wheel. You must be quite happy shipping couples, right?"
Xie Jian was speechless.
After a moment, she said, "By the way, Li Xi asked me to ask you if you're interested in participating in the film and television adaptation of 'Seven Days of Nightmare.' If you're interested, you can contact her."
Xie Zheng was already half asleep.
Upon hearing this, she sat bolt upright, excitedly kicking her drowsy younger sister awake. "Seven-day nightmare?"
"Does Li Xi know Yun Ge?"
"I don't know." Xie Jian rubbed his kicked butt and yawned, "I'll give you her WeChat contact card, you can chat with her yourself."
After sharing Li Xi's business card with Xie Zheng, Xie Jian turned over and went to sleep.
Xie Zheng was wide awake and immediately added Li Xi on WeChat.
It's already 2:30 in the morning.
Xie Zheng thought Li Xi had already fallen asleep, and was just about to put down the hypnosis and go to sleep when she received a notification that her friend request had been accepted.
Li Xi's profile picture is a pure white and beautiful butterfly carp, like one wearing a wedding dress.
My WeChat name is: 【hehe.】
Xie Zheng added Li Xi on WeChat using her personal account. Li Xi's profile picture was a photo of herself, and her name was XZ.
Xie Zheng tentatively sent a meme of a dancing bear greeting someone, followed by a text message: 【Miss Li Xi, still awake?】
Li Xi quickly replied: 【Not yet, still drawing.】
She's bursting with inspiration tonight and is working on character designs for the male and female leads of her new work, "Mr. 2301".
Upon seeing the word 'painting', Xie Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
She excitedly typed out a message: "Xiao Jian told me that 'Seven Days of Nightmare' is about to be adapted into a film and television series. Is Miss Li Xi the project manager who bought the film and television rights, or...?"
Or are you Yun Ge?
Before Xie Zheng could finish typing the last sentence, she received a reply from Li Xixin: "[Let's get to know each other formally, Miss Xie. I'm Yun Ge, the original comic artist of 'Seven Days of Nightmare'.]"
Yun Ge, the great artist!
Xie Zheng was fully awake.
Okay, I won't be able to sleep tonight.
She wanted to have a long talk with her beloved Yun Ge all night long!
