The Film Queen’s Little Bunny Wife - Chapter 28
The day her phone was confiscated felt indefinitely far away. Tu Jiaojiao felt like she had returned to the high school days stored in this body’s memory.
However, the persistence in her heart was for the happiness that would follow.
Her sister could take her phone and prevent her from contacting Ling Hanyan, but she couldn’t erase the Ling Hanyan in her heart.
However, Tu Jiaojiao was also self-aware. Because she was planning an investment, she often needed communication equipment to contact the outside world.
She never broke her promise during those times.
At most, she would click on Ling Hanyan’s WeChat, staring blankly at the free swimming whale on her profile picture.
Every time this happened, she would silently think: I don’t want to be a spectator looking up at Ling Hanyan; I want to become the ocean that envelops her, bringing her security and satisfaction.
Since the filming of “Queen He Ling” wrapped, Xiao Liang noticed something was off with her boss.
If she guessed correctly, she must have had a fight with Tu Jiaojiao!
And it was a very serious fight the kind where they blocked and deleted each other and couldn’t even be friends anymore!
She remembered in the past, when their relationship was still good, Sister Yan was very happy every day.
Although she didn’t show it on the surface, having followed her for so many years, how could Xiao Liang not see it?!
Ever since they exchanged contact information, Sister Yan, who hadn’t been particularly interested in electronic devices, started looking at her phone exponentially more often.
Not to mention the countless times she caught her video-calling Tu Jiaojiao!
Even when the makeup artist was applying her makeup, she would set up a phone stand to video call Tu Jiaojiao!
Although they didn’t talk much on the phone, and it was mostly the girl chattering happily, Sister Yan would just listen and occasionally respond.
But could this escape Xiao Liang’s discerning eyes?
Sister Yan’s camera and lighting were specially adjusted just so Tu Jiaojiao could see her best side! And she truly enjoyed the girl’s company!
Mao Jie even said at the time that if she put this effort into live streaming interactions with her fans, her Weibo follower count could increase by another digit.
Not to mention, during the filming of the crane scene, Tu Jiaojiao came every day to check in and bring her bunny cookies.
After dropping them off, she wouldn’t bother anyone. She’d find a small corner, lay out a cushion, sit down, and happily watch Sister Yan film, as if she could never get tired of it.
Xiao Liang was trembling in her heart at the time, even suspecting that she was trying to climb over her to become Sister Yan’s new assistant.
However, one day, when she casually brought it up with Sister Yan, the latter rolled her eyes and directly said: “Jiaojiao isn’t short of money. But if you don’t work hard and take good care of my daily needs, maybe she’ll step in to take the lead.”
The confidence and matter of factness in her eyes at the time!
It made Xiao Liang so mad she wanted to debut on the spot and acquire a loyal fan to deflate her arrogance!
But who would have thought?
Their friendship just scattered!
For a long time, Tu Jiaojiao’s energetic voice hadn’t been heard in the makeup room, and she herself hadn’t appeared for nearly a month.
Sister Yan’s free time gradually shifted from being glued to her phone to becoming a regular at the gym.
She used to work out, but her current amount of exercise was nowhere near what it used to be!
It was truly confusing. Their relationship was clearly so good, how could they just stop contacting each other!
Frankly, Liang He considered her relationship with Ling Hanyan to be long-standing, having elevated from assistant to a friend level.
But compared to the friendship between Tu Jiaojiao and Sister Yan, she was probably just an acquaintance of Sister Yan.
The way Sister Yan sometimes spoke was so hurtful that it made her want to rebel.
There genuinely weren’t many people who could tolerate her “cold shoulder” personality. Tu Jiaojiao’s personality was genuinely good, and genuinely odd.
However, given the situation, according to Xiao Liang’s analysis, Sister Yan must have said something hurtful or done something outrageous that drove Tu Jiaojiao away.
And based on Sister Yan’s personality, she wouldn’t apologize, nor would she chase after her, so now she could only vent her frustration at the gym every day!
No wonder they say ‘BE’ (Bad Ending) candy is the sweetest! Now, thinking about Tu Jiaojiao made her feel heartbroken, as if her own ‘CP’ had been broken up.
Seeing that Sister Yan had finished her stretching and was probably planning to pack up and go home.
Alright, I’ll go off work early today too.
When the boss has no work, the assistant’s job is this easy, hahaha.
Wait, why did she sit down again, and why is she staring at her phone again!
Liang He pondered briefly, deciding not to disturb her.
What if, what if Tu Jiaojiao had a change of heart and was planning to fish Sister Yan out of the garbage can?
She took a detour, pretending to go get water, but her eyes and ears were both turned towards Ling Hanyan.
Sister Yan had been looking at her phone for a very, very long time! Something’s happening!
But why was her expression completely unchanged? That shouldn’t be right!
Sister Yan! Tu Jiaojiao hasn’t talked to you for a month. Shouldn’t you be a little sad? A little happy? A little surprised?
“What’s wrong, Xiao Liang?” A colleague saw her standing by the water dispenser for a long time and walked over to ask, “Is the water dispenser broken?”
“No, no.” Liang He smiled and gave up her spot.
But everywhere else, it wasn’t convenient for her to secretly observe!
So, when Ling Hanyan finished looking at her phone and walked out of the gym, what she saw was this scene.
For some reason, Liang He was stepping on the fire hydrant, peeking and craning her neck at the ventilation window.
“What are you looking at?” She strode over with her long legs and asked.
“Ah! Sister Yan! Why did you come out!” Liang He was startled, gasped, and quickly jumped down.
She thought standing high would give her a better view, but her height wasn’t enough! Standing up there was useless!
Under Ling Hanyan’s skeptical gaze, she prevaricated, “I forgot where Sister Mao hid the access card. I only remember it being on some window ledge!”
“It definitely won’t be on the gym window ledge; the flow of people here is second only to the main entrance.”
Ling Hanyan made a cutting remark and walked straight ahead.
“Let’s go, we have work. We’re attending the press conference for Dirty Cat and No Money tomorrow. Let’s see what we need to prepare in advance.”
After staying in the clan for a full month, Tu Jiaojiao felt like she had gained a layer of soft fat.
But she finally passed the heart-cultivation test, and her sister lifted the restriction, hahaha!!
The heart cultivation was indeed effective, successfully making her realize that before giving all her love to Ling Hanyan, she must first love herself.
So, the first call she made was to Bai Wanyue.
“Sister Wanyue, you’ve worked hard! Thank you for arranging the investment work so perfectly while I was away, hehehe.”
“Hello, Little CEO Tu, it’s been a while.” Bai Wanyue’s voice sounded a bit weary. “You’re calling to ask about the investment again, aren’t you? It’s all settled.”
“Then I’m relieved! Thank you, Sister Wanyue.”
Just as Tu Jiaojiao was about to hang up, the other side said, “Little CEO Tu, wait a moment. They’re planning to hold a press conference. Are you going?”
“Hmm… I’ll think about it. Send me the time and location.” No matter what, Tu Jiaojiao privately wanted to see Ling Hanyan and talk to her to recharge a bit!
Switching to WeChat, the long-missed chat box came into view, with their last conversation still there.
【Yan Yan! Sister says the situation this time is much more serious than before. I might have to go into seclusion for a while, and I’m not sure how long it will take. But I can’t contact the outside world during this time, so don’t forget me, woo woo woo!】
【Mm, waiting for you.】
She sent a long paragraph, but Yan Yan only replied with three words.
Three simple, ordinary words.
But in Tu Jiaojiao’s eyes, she could instantly imagine her voice and expression.
Ling Hanyan would surely look at her condescendingly and seriously, filling her dark eyes with Tu Jiaojiao.
Then, she would slightly nod, purse her lips a little in thought, before finally speaking the sentence in her usual tone.
Every word she spoke had power. In Tu Jiaojiao’s eyes, this kind of tranquility could only be given to her by Yan Yan.
Finally, she could contact her again and enjoy the happiness of having her thoughts intersect with hers!
Tu Jiaojiao first calmed her heart, then quietly typed.
【Yan Yan, my seclusion is over! Do you have time to come out recently?】
She didn’t mention how much she had missed her during those thirty days and nights, nor did she mention how much effort she had made to see her again.
But Tu Jiaojiao knew that Yan Yan would understand.
After sending the message, she didn’t guard her phone waiting for Ling Hanyan’s reply as she used to.
She chose to focus on the matter at hand, picking up Marshmallow with one hand and grabbing her suitcase with the other, marching home proudly!
Thanks to the housekeeper’s help, the house was spotless and unchanged from when she left.
Marshmallow ran off as soon as it hit the ground.
Tu Jiaojiao heard its inner thoughts quietly muttering: “Oh no, I’ve been away for so long. Is the fresh grass I hid still edible?”
She hurried after it and scolded, “Marshmallow, have I ever starved you or made you cold! I told you not to hide things. You can just ask me for whatever you want!”
Fortunately, their housekeeper was incredibly diligent!
She had cleaned Marshmallow’s little room, making it dry and tidy. She even disassembled and washed its nest, and the heavily gnawed teething stone had been replaced with a new one.
Marshmallow started cooing, sounding like it was doubting life.
“Wuwuwu, it’s all gone. There’s nothing left! This isn’t my nest, and this isn’t my teething stone!”
“Although it looks exactly the same, it has none of my scent. Did Jiaojiao get a new rabbit!”
Knowing it couldn’t cause any trouble, Tu Jiaojiao rubbed it a few times and laughed before leaving.
Lying on the bed, she was happily surprised to find that Ling Hanyan had already replied: 【Congratulations, Jiaojiao. I have an event tomorrow, which will probably end at five o’clock. The rest of the time is free.】
Having long understood Ling Hanyan’s thought process, her meaning was that they could meet after five!
Tu Jiaojiao excitedly rolled around on the bed. She could finally see Yan Yan again!
After a moment of excitement, she sat up straight and began to take deep breaths.
Last time, she was so stimulated that her rabbit ears popped out. This time, she absolutely would not let that happen again!
She was a Moon Rabbit who passed the heart-cultivation test!
However…
Thinking about the content of the heart cultivation test, her cheeks couldn’t help but feel hot again.
First, she had to watch many kissing scenes, and then imagine herself and her beloved with their lips and tongues intertwined…
She couldn’t help but turn into a rabbit several times just at that step.
But she was too young at the time and didn’t know that was just the appetizer…
After her endurance improved, her sister and Mu Si successively played scenes of intimacy below the neck… and educational materials about those shy things!
And that wasn’t all! She also had to fantasize! Fantasize! That she and Yan Yan had reached that step!
It was too, too, too much for a rabbit to handle!
But she passed the test, hehehe!
Having digested the blush-inducing moments in her mind, Tu Jiaojiao shifted her attention back to the time and location of the press conference that Bai Wanyue had just sent.
The time on it conveniently allowed her to finish before Yan Yan, ending around four-thirty.
She silently calculated in her heart. She couldn’t see Yan Yan until five tomorrow. Since she was free before then, why not go attend the press conference?
