Chapter 779 Call!
Looking at the vibrating cell phone, Chi Jingyuan retracted the foot that was about to step on the makeup car, turned around and winked at Park Jae-hyun, then looked left and right, walked a few steps to the right, stood on the empty and deserted curb, and answered the phone.
"Mina? What's wrong?"
After Chi Jingyuan answered the call, he asked directly, with a questioning tone,
"..."
On the other side, on the balcony of Twice's dormitory, Ming Jingnan, who was in a state of confusion, suddenly became nervous for some reason after hearing a familiar voice.
Because Ming Jingnan knew that Chi Jingyuan had been filming at night recently, she would not disturb him much at night during this period. Moreover, when the two of them contacted each other, they usually sent text messages first. If they called directly, it was usually because there was something going on.
He paused for a second, his breath lingering around the microphone, then he pursed his lips to make himself more natural, and said softly, "What are you doing?"
"Well……"
Chi Jingyuan probably just thought it was a girl's concern, and didn't think much about it. He spoke without hesitation, "Were you practicing my subway song with them this afternoon? We'll have dinner together afterwards... Wasn't Jeongyeon there too? Is she home now?"
“Yes, Jeongyeon-unnie is back.”
"Oh... I'm already on the set. I just talked to the director and am about to put on makeup and change clothes... What a coincidence. If you had called a few minutes later, I would have already been putting on makeup and I probably wouldn't have been able to answer the call."
"Oh……"
Mingjingnan responded softly.
Chi Jingyuan seemed very normal, but she was a little unnatural... In the past, when they called, she had endless things to say no matter what, and she found even extremely boring topics very interesting, but now she was suddenly at a loss for words... She wanted to ask the questions she wanted to know most, but she didn't know how to start, and she didn't know how to make herself look more natural.
"what happened?"
Chi Jingyuan sensed something was wrong and asked softly, "You sound a little tired?"
"No la……"
Mingjing Nan denied in a low voice, her voice sounded very small, with a little rustling feeling in the empty background: "It's just that I miss you a little bit."
Even she rarely said such straightforward words of love, usually only when she was emotional she couldn't help herself...
Hearing what Ming Jingnan said, Chi Jingyuan, who was standing on the curb and kicking the sand on the road out of boredom, paused for a moment, as if he was calculating something. A few seconds later, he said, "Today's scene will definitely take all night. If everything goes well, we'll probably have to shoot until tomorrow afternoon... I'll call you then. If you're free, we can meet and have dinner together."
He did not respond directly to the other party, but directly talked about the meeting...
But for Mingjing Nan, this was already the best response. However, she did not agree directly. Instead, she began to blame him: "You have to shoot all night again, and until the afternoon... You are so tired, why do you come out instead of taking a good rest..."
"Because I miss you, too."
A gentle voice with a hint of smile passed through the receiver and entered Ming Jingnan's ears. The casual reply made her stunned after hearing it. The negative emotions such as chaos and irritability in her heart suddenly eased a lot, and the expression on her face relaxed unconsciously.
Although Chi Jingyuan couldn't see it, Ming Jingnan on the balcony still shook his head and refused stubbornly. His voice seemed to become a little lighter as he spoke: "No, rather than meeting in this situation... I hope you can have a good rest!"
Chi Jingyuan smiled: "Are you sure? Tomorrow afternoon should be the only time I have time recently. I have to fly to Italy the day after tomorrow. I guess I will be busy until the end of the month."
"Yes! Confirmed! Confirmed! Confirmed!"
Without giving it much thought, Ming Jingnan said it very firmly, and as if she was angry, she repeated it several times in a decisive manner. But her voice was still a baby voice, and her tone and voice sounded quite contrasting. Besides being adorable, it made Chi Jingyuan feel numb for some reason.
After that, the girl added in a commanding tone: "After you finish filming tomorrow, go to bed and have a good rest. As for meeting..."
At this point, her voice softened again: "Let's talk about it when you're done with this and have some free time."
"Good! Good! Good!"
Chi Jingyuan imitated the way Ming Jingnan spoke just now, as if he was replying to an order from his superior: "I'm listening to you!"
"Don't learn from me!"
She said something coquettishly at first, then caught the key point of Chi Jingyuan's words just now, and asked curiously: "Are we going to Italy the day after tomorrow?"
Ming Jingnan felt that her mood was starting to change from what it was before she made the call. She was no longer in a hurry to ask anything, but instead slowly became more talkative as usual.
"Well, because there were a lot of things to do, I went there two days in advance. The company's team had to go there earlier, so I flew over today."
Mingjing Nan hummed, then asked: "As a spokesperson, you have a lot of things to do. When will you be back?"
GUCCI endorsement is different from ordinary advertising. It is a very important thing for any idol, and of course it is impossible for Mingjing Nan to know about this kind of thing in the news...
Chi Jingyuan mentioned this when they were chatting a few days ago, and Ming Jingnan has calmed down after the initial shock. He did not think that there was a "big gap". Instead, he felt proud and was very happy for Chi Jingyuan.
"I will probably stay in Milan for three or four days. In addition to watching the fashion shows, I also have some schedules arranged by some brands. After I come back, I will have some promotional activities. I think I will be busy until the end of the month. Sigh..."
Chi Jingyuan did not hide his emotions from Ming Jingnan, and finally sighed with some complaints. However, before the little baby voice could comfort him, his tone changed and became a little expectant, and then he said: "But I found out when I went to Fashion Week a few times before that many of the latest items of GUCCI in Milan are not available here on the Peninsula, and there are also many seasonal items of other brands... Come to think of it, I haven't given you anything yet, so this time I can buy you some gifts to bring back."
At the end, he started talking to himself, as if he was considering what to buy for Ming Jingnan: "...How about bags and clothes? Hmm... forget it, it's easy to be seen. Let's buy perfume or jewelry. I saw a crystal hairpin in the album that Brother Xian gave me yesterday. It looks pretty..."
Mingjing Nan smiled and did not interrupt him. He listened carefully and finally said hesitantly in a low voice: "Actually, you don't have to buy expensive things..."
But before she finished, she was interrupted by Chi Jingyuan, who pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Why, you are the only one allowed to give me a gift, but I am not allowed to give you a gift... so selfish?"
"Hey hey hey..."
The blaming voice made Ming Jingnan laugh with satisfaction, as if she felt Chi Jingyuan's intentions. She said no more, but a strong expectation was brewing in her heart.
She herself didn't seem to notice that as the phone call went on, her mood became better and better without her noticing, and she seemed to be about to forget the original reason for making this call.
But after all, it's something that's stuck in her chest and is very important to her. Even though she's in a much better mood now, she still feels like something is stuck in her throat if she doesn't figure it out.
...Although after the conversation just now, Ming Jingnan felt something from Chi Jingyuan's tone and attitude, she herself did not realize that her previous desire to ask about this topic gradually faded.
Just as Ming Jingnan was thinking about how to change the topic, Chi Jingyuan's voice suddenly came to his ears:
"By the way, speaking of gifts..."
A few field staff members were walking by not far away. Chi Jingyuan, who was on the phone, saw them from afar and waved to them with a smile. Then he suddenly remembered something, stretched out his left hand in front of him, and looked at the platinum ring on his finger that was reflecting the light:
"I've been wearing the ring you gave me last time these days. Many of my friends have been asking me why I'm wearing a ring all of a sudden. I'm getting annoyed by their questions."
"I've worn it for a few days, and although it looks pretty... I'm still not used to wearing this kind of jewelry. Every time I wear it, I feel like there's something extra on my finger, and it always feels awkward and uncomfortable."
"..."
She was originally quite happy when she heard Chi Jingyuan say that he wore it every day, but the subsequent complaints made her happiness disappear completely, and she also felt a little aggrieved in her heart.
Ming Jingnan on the balcony couldn't help but purse his lips. After a while, he tried to look calm, but his voice became low: "If you really don't like it...if you're not used to it, then don't wear it for now...it's okay."
Although she said it was okay, she couldn't help but pinch her right hand, raised it to her mouth, and placed the ring on her index finger under her lips.
The index finger that had been twirling her hair and seemed very agile while she was listening to the story just now now seemed a little stiff.
But Chi Jingyuan's slightly complaining voice came from the phone: "How can it be so simple... If it were in the past, or if someone else gave it to me, I would have taken it off and thrown it in the closet."
"Alas... Now, every time I want to take it off, I feel reluctant..."
At this point, under the interweaving of moonlight and lights, Chi Jingyuan, who was sitting on the curb, turned his left hand back and forth in front of him, looking at the ring in his hand from different angles, with a bright smile in his eyes, and it seemed that he quite liked the ring.
But on the phone he sighed deeply, his voice sounding extremely helpless:
"Who made your name engraved on it?"
