Chapter 725: Farewell

"Are you really going to invest in Ma Ye? That's one million."

Xu Hongdou still feels Wang Yan is brain-damaged. She originally didn't intend to follow Wang Yan out for filming at night, but she came out anyway, wanting to talk. When Ma Qiushan wanted to pull investment before, she mentioned it to Wang Yan, but at that time their relationship hadn't progressed, so it wasn't easy to say much. Now it's different, so naturally, she doesn't hold it in.

Wang Yan holds the camera, filming at the entrance of the village. Now with all kinds of new rural construction, not to mention this place is considered a scenic spot, so there are still lights and such.

He says with a chuckle: "What are you worried about? Afraid he'll run away?"

"It's not that it's impossible. We met by chance, if he takes the money and runs, we can't do anything about it."

"He won't. Didn't you hear him say it himself, he's looking for Xie Zhiyao as a middleman. With a contract signed in black and white, he can run, but can Xie Zhiyao run? This isn't a question of whether he runs or not, it's about whether he has the ability and enough good luck. The development of this kind of milk tea shop is very fast; two shops become four, four can become eight, eight can become eighteen. If it goes smoothly, then it should only take a year or so for one million to become several million. If it doesn't go smoothly, then it's my poor judgment, and losing money is deserved. When it comes to making money, there must always be some risks."

"You are quite open-minded."

"That's not it either. After all, no matter how much money I have, it didn't come from a strong wind. It's just that he looks pretty good, and maybe he can succeed."

Xu Hongdou pouts: "I don't think it's very reliable."

She had tasted the tea drink Ma Qiushan concocted before and had given suggestions, and her words were very affirmative, just like in the original drama. But that had nothing to do with her, and everyone didn't have a deep friendship, so no one would say anything unpleasant. Now that her relationship with Wang Yan is unusual, naturally, she says whatever she thinks.

"Then let's wait and see the result." Wang Yan doesn't say anything more. "You came out with me just for this matter, right? Alright, go back, I can film it myself. It will be quite late before I can go back, so don't feed the mosquitoes with me. If you get covered in bites, it itches on your body, but it hurts in my heart."

Xu Hongdou gives a coquettish roll of her eyes, but says hesitantly: "Then... I'm going back?"

Wang Yan steps forward and looks at her: "I forgot how it felt this afternoon, let's savor it again."

After speaking, without waiting for Hongdou to react, he kisses her directly.

Xu Hongdou closes her eyes, her hands unconsciously wrapping around his neck, very engaged. Practice makes perfect; with the previous time, Xu Hongdou begins to respond somewhat clumsily this time. Kissing is also a technical job; her experience is not rich.

After a long time, their lips part. Perhaps it's the quiet night, Xu Hongdou, panting, blushing, and blinking her large eyes, is particularly alluring.

However, Wang Yan still has this self-control. He reaches out to tuck the stray hair on her forehead behind her head: "Go back. These two days we are filming scenery, and we have to get up early and stay up late to film. In two days, you can join in and play along."

"Hmm, I'm leaving, you take care." Xu Hongdou gives a word of advice and turns to leave. Feeding mosquitoes late at night is indeed not good. Of course, if Wang Yan wanted her to stay, she would actually be willing, but Wang Yan is indeed working.

For this promotional video, the duration wasn't determined, covering scenery, food, humanities, geography, history, etc., a comprehensive introduction. This film, if placed in the whole of Dali, is actually the same, although there are slight differences, but basically it's much the same, it's just specifically filming Yunmiao Village.

With such comprehensive filming, naturally, the filming time is very long, and there are many things to film. So Wang Yan not only has to film at night but even get up early to film, to film the morning light, the rain and dew, the evening glow, the sunset, which is not easy. It's just that time doesn't allow it; if convenient, it would be best to film the scenery of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

This is also Wang Yan truly helping, and Xie Zhiyao is truly not polite. Don't look at it as just a small village; this kind of comprehensive filming can also be made into a documentary of several episodes. If Xie Zhiyao were to spend money to find someone to do it, he couldn't afford it. It's just that Wang Yan is idle and his hands are itchy, so he has nothing to do and finds trouble to film this kind of film for them. After all, he has no assistant, not group filming, from beginning to end it's all him alone, not as easy as he said, it's a very troublesome job.

Just like this, a small village, Wang Yan filmed for more than three days, sometimes controlling the drone, sometimes carrying the camera to film everywhere in the village, every day leaving early and returning very late.

Xu Hongdou has already seen how it is filmed, so she doesn't want to follow along boredly. Although the newly established relationship means she can't see him very often, which makes her a little disappointed, it doesn't matter too much.

Although the feeling of love still makes her blush and is still fresh, she is ultimately not a little girl who wants to be entangled all day long.

She stayed in the courtyard for two days, occasionally chatting with the relaxed Da Mai, but more often lying on the small platform on the second floor playing with her phone, looking at the scenery, and daydreaming.

【Novel app that has been running stably for many years, the source-changing app that old readers are using, huanyuanapp.】

When a person is idle, they will let their imagination run wild. She thinks of Chen Nanxing, thinks of her previous work, thinks of her ex-boyfriend, thinks of Wang Yan, thinks of the bits and pieces with Wang Yan. Thinking of Chen Nanxing, she is no longer very sad; more, in fact, is regret. There are still many places they haven't been, many things they haven't eaten, many things they haven't done...

She also thinks about the future, thinks about what she will do after this three-month trip to Dali ends, and also thinks about how she and Wang Yan will develop...

She certainly can't figure it out, and it will definitely get more chaotic the more she thinks, so she doesn't think about it anymore. She runs to the Youfeng Restaurant to work, learns hand-ground coffee from Nana, serves plates and does chores, to pass the time and not let her mind run wild.

During this period, everyone has been in contact morning and evening, and the relationship between Xu Hongdou, Da Mai, and Nana has improved a lot. Women have many complaints, and 'three women make a play' is not a lie. Fortunately, none of the three of them are the kind of people who don't fit in, so they got along as good sisters.

Da Mai's writing level has improved greatly now, and readers are not fools; her improvement in writing ability can be felt. Recent reader evaluations tend to be positive, and at the same time, it has attracted many new readers, which makes Da Mai's mood explode every day, just like her name, every day is a sunny day.

Since she no longer locks herself in the room, she can write anywhere. Staying in the huge courtyard alone is boring and lacks a sense of security, so she also followed them to the Youfeng Restaurant. There are not so many tourists here, and the environment affects people, so it is relatively quiet overall. She drinks the drinks Nana makes, sits in the corner and clatters away, and her writing is not affected.

This day, at five o'clock, Wang Yan is in work clothes, wearing the small vest essential for an old master, wearing a duck-billed cap, carrying photography gear in his hand, looking very professional, swaying into the Youfeng Restaurant.

"Wang Laoshi is busy, are you thirsty? Shall I make you a cup of the fruit juice I just developed?" Nana, who is wiping the counter, speaks.

Xu Hongdou, who is sweeping the floor, also looks up, showing her gums to Wang Yan. This is love, happy to see him. "Are you done? You sit down first, we still need a while to finish cleaning up."

There are not many foreign tourists in Yunmiao Village, and there is no place to stay in the village, so at this time, the tourists who wandered over have left. Any later, there will be no cars, and it will be difficult to leave. And there are no lanterns here at night, and it is not prosperous, but rather there are many mosquitoes and insects, and there is nothing to see.

So they clean up and prepare to leave work. Xie Xiaochun has already picked up her child and gone home, and Nana is the pillar of this shop.

Wang Yan raises his head frivolously at Hongdou and looks at Nana behind the bar: "I am indeed a bit thirsty, bring me a cup of plain water."

As he speaks, he puts everything on the ground and sits on the stool in front of the bar waiting for water. He doesn't forget to turn back and greet Da Mai, who is sitting in the corner clattering away: "Da Mai, haven't you finished writing yet? Stuck in the plot?"

"No, today's task has been completed, I just thought of the following plot and am seizing the inspiration."

Wang Yan doesn't speak again; inspiration has come, so he can't disturb her.

"Wang Laoshi, you are truly dedicated, disappearing every day from morning, and returning in the middle of the night." Nana smiles and puts a cup of plain water in front of Wang Yan. "To tell you the truth, we have missed you these past few days. It's easy to go from frugal to luxurious, but difficult to go from luxurious to frugal. Without your breakfast, we really can't eat well."

"Tomorrow will be fine. These two days I basically finished filming the scenery, just waiting for a light rain. Starting tomorrow, I won't film these things, I'll film tie-dyeing, wood carving, ceramics, etc. Hongdou, do you want to go with me tomorrow?"

Xu Hongdou stops sweeping, puts one hand on her waist: "Will it disturb you?"

"It's just eating, drinking, and having fun, what's there to disturb? After filming tie-dyeing, we'll go film the Eight Great Bowls, film braised chicken, after filming carving, we'll film flower cakes, film milk fans, film rice noodles, film mushrooms. It's all arranged by Boss Xie, paid for by Boss Xie, how good is that."

"As long as it doesn't disturb, then I'll accompany you tomorrow."

"Hey, I say you two, you can't show off your affection like this, and it's still public-funded dating, I criticize you."

These past few days, even if Wang Yan didn't show his face many times, Xu Hongdou worked here, or stayed in the courtyard. As the relationship became closer, they always talked about this kind of thing. After all, Wang Yan has money, Xu Hongdou is beautiful, both are single, and they are so fated to come together. The two of them are a pair, and in the eyes of outsiders, they should be dating. Pure friendship does exist between men and women, but anyone who believes it is a fool. When women gossip and chat together, how can they resist not asking.

This kind of thing is not a secret, and there is nothing that cannot be said, so Xu Hongdou also generously admitted it. She certainly has some small thoughts, such as the foolish Da Mai.

At that time, when she said it, she paid special attention to Da Mai's reaction...

Xu Hongdou smiles: "I don't accept criticism."

Wang Yan also smiles: "Alright, single dogs envy sweet love, which is understandable. Hurry up and work, I see Ma Ye is urging in the group."

Nana takes out her phone and looks at the group chat of Youfeng Xiaoyuan, sighs and says: "Hey, Ma Ye says one thing during the day and another at night, says one thing and does another, he can be considered the happy fruit of our courtyard. When I came, he was already here, and now he is suddenly leaving, I really feel a bit uncomfortable. I don't know if he can make a comeback this time. I'm worried about your one million. Ma Ye doesn't look reliable on weekdays, you are really big-hearted."

"Don't doubt the person you use, don't use the person you doubt. Investment is the same. Alright, alright, hurry up and act, do you need my help?"

"No need, you hurry up and rest for a while. Looking at you day and night these past two days, I see you have lost some weight, are you tired?" Xu Hongdou's concern kicks in.

Wang Yan shakes his head amusedly. His weight is now stable at over 210 jin. If he eats and drinks too much, he gains two jin, if he doesn't eat well, he loses two jin, very strong. Let alone this level of workload, even if he didn't sleep for these few days and worked at high intensity, he would still be about this weight.

He says: "It's alright. How about you, have you been tired working here for free these past two days?"

Showing off affection at such close range, Nana feels a chill, and can't help but speed up her movements. Finish early, that is early liberation...

Because Ma Qiushan found a new direction and funds, and made preparations, he is going out of the mountains to start a business again. Today is his farewell banquet. After eating this meal, who knows when he will return.

In the Youfeng Xiaoyuan, it is already joyful now. They are all acquaintances, Xie Zhiyao must come, Xie Xiaochun naturally cannot be left behind. Xie Xiaochun came, then her daughter Little Hulu must be crying and making trouble to join in the fun. Little Hulu came, she shares happiness, and has long used her phone watch to contact other good friends to come over.

So in the courtyard, four children are screaming, playing very lively. The two little cats, Jiahui and Xiao Hei, who used to fight to the death, are now hiding in the corner, leaning tightly against each other to keep warm, feeling very helpless...

When Wang Yan and the others entered, the first thing they saw was a group of mischievous children jumping around, Xie Xiaochun sitting on the side chatting with Huang Xinxin.

It's not that Xie Xiaochun doesn't care, it's just that the children's noise is within her acceptable range. For children, Xie Xiaochun doesn't manage them very strictly. On one hand, because as a single mother, she feels indebted, and on the other hand, her educational philosophy is not the usual one that puts great pressure on children.

Little Hulu was the first to discover Wang Yan. She already knew Wang Yan was a photographer, and had ideas in her heart, so she trotted over, looking up at Wang Yan: "Hello, Uncle Wang."

"Hello to you too, Little Hulu." Wang Yan smiles and bends down, touching her little head.

Seeing Wang Yan's kind attitude, the three little ones behind also came up, calling 'Uncle Wang' one by one, very sweetly.

Children are relatively direct. Little Hulu asks straight: "Uncle Wang, Mom said you are a very amazing photographer, can you take beautiful photos of me and my friends?"

"Of course you can, take them now, and let your mom show you tonight."

Children who are polite, how could Uncle Wang refuse... ===== CHAPTER 726 =====
