"Sister Bingbing, congratulations, you have become an international movie queen."
To be honest, it was a bit embarrassing to see his ex-girlfriend again. Li Tang tried to ease the embarrassment with a joking tone.
My ex-girlfriend still drives the red Toyota Corolla. It seems that her driving skills have improved a lot. At least she is pretty good at pulling over. She was quite surprised when she saw her sister and Li Tang walking out of the airport lobby together.
"Congratulations to you too, you have become the number one drama actor on CCTV."
The ex-girlfriend also smiled and said again: "I met Bingbing some time ago."
Obviously, the news about him starring in Linghu Chong came from Xiao Bingbing. As for what the two talked about, Li Tang had no way of knowing, because Fan Xiaopang never mentioned it to him on the phone.
After helping Li Xiuxiu move the two big boxes into the trunk of the car, Li Tang stood aside and was about to say goodbye to them. His ex-girlfriend, who was about to get in the car, held the car door and shouted to him: "Why are you still standing there?" Get in the car!"
Li Xiuxiu was very smart. When she heard what her sister had said, she quickly ran over and took Li Tang's arm. "Brother, my sister is going to help me pick up the wind today. She must have made something delicious. Hurry up."
This scene seems to have returned to three years ago, triggering the original memory. The original person's feelings for his ex-girlfriend are obviously sincere, after all, it is his first love!
Li Tang glanced at the taxi waiting in line next to him, sighed secretly, and had no choice but to get in the car with Li Xiuxiu's pull.
Although Li Tang and his ex-girlfriend had officially broken up for nearly three years, he still felt a little guilty and guilty at this time. They have been together for three years and separated for three years, but the distance between the two has always been negative. After all, people have feelings, and it is impossible for him to be ruthless to his ex-girlfriend.
Maybe she felt that the atmosphere in the car was a little awkward. Li Xiuxiu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, took the initiative to stir up the atmosphere and turned around and asked Li Tang: "Brother, do you have anything to do when you come to the capital this time?"
"Come to participate in an event." Li Tang said vaguely.
My ex-girlfriend, who had been driving silently, suddenly said: "You are attending the closing ceremony of the College Student Film Festival, right?"
"Uh, yes."
"Congratulations on winning another award."
Li Tang seemed to hear a hint of sarcasm in his ex-girlfriend's congratulatory tone. He sighed secretly, shook his head and said, "Not necessarily."
Li Tang didn't want to get entangled with her on this topic, so he changed the subject and said, "Has the filming of the movie you collaborated with Brother Jie and Boss Ren finished?"
"It was completed last month."
Li Tang glanced at Li Xiuxiu who was sitting in the passenger seat and said, "Then you must be very busy this year, right?"
"It's not bad. I still have two dramas on hand, which will start shooting next month."
"Are you still cheating?" Li Tang couldn't help but asked in surprise.
However, the ex-girlfriend said with an indifferent expression: "I have no choice, I have already signed it, so I have to work harder on my own."
Li Tang couldn't help but shook his head secretly. For an aspiring actor, it's a big taboo for him to play a role, because you can't portray two different characters at the same time unless you don't care.
After hearing this, Li Tang lost interest in continuing the awkward conversation and sat in the back row with his eyes closed to relax.
His ex-girlfriend glanced at him in the rearview mirror and curled her lips in disdain. Li Xiuxiu, who had been pricking her ears, looked at the two of them with a worried look on her face. She opened her mouth but hesitated to speak.
When he arrived at the downstairs of his ex-girlfriend's house, Li Tang didn't want to go upstairs, but he couldn't stand Li Xiuxiu's troubles, so he had to follow her upstairs.
"handwashing!"
Follow the old rules as soon as you enter.
The ex-girlfriend washed her hands first, went into the room and changed into home clothes, then put on the kitchen apron and said, "I just need to copy two more dishes."
Li Tang was sitting on the sofa. Everything here was originally very familiar, but now he felt a little restless.
Li Xiuxiu made him a cup of tea, sat across from him, looked at the kitchen door, and lowered her voice: "Brother, what's going on between you and my sister?"
Li Xiuxiu has always had a very good impression of Li Tang, her former brother-in-law. In the past, when Li Tang and her sister were getting along, she felt that Li Tang was from Shanghai, had a house, and had good family conditions, and was a good match for her sister. At that time, their ideal was to get out of the small county town of their hometown by studying and settle down in a big city.
Later, the situation changed, but Li Tang's development was also very good, and she had always wanted to bring them back together.
She also knew very well that although the two had broken up in name, they still often sneaked together. In her opinion, the two of them obviously still love each other, so why can't they get back together?
But today she discovered a problem. The two seemed to have not been in contact for a long time, and she was inevitably a little anxious.
Li Tang hesitated for a moment and said, "I probably... uh, I have a girlfriend."
The reason why I say hesitant is not that it is difficult for him to speak up, but that he has been interested in Fan Xiaopang from the very beginning. It is not the so-called love yet, so he is just taking it slowly.
"You have a girlfriend now?"
Although she had some speculation in her mind, Li Xiuxiu was still surprised. She subconsciously looked in the direction of the kitchen and couldn't help but feel sorry for her sister.
She was very smart and immediately thought of some previous things and said, "Brother, could your girlfriend be that Bingbing?"
There had been scandals between Li Tang and Fan Xiaopang, so he was not surprised by Li Xiuxiu's revelation. He nodded and said, "Yes, it's her."
Li Xiuxiu was a little unwilling. After all, when the scandal between Li Tang and Xiao Bingbing spread, he was still with his sister.
So his tone was inevitably harsh: "You guys have been fine for a long time?"
"No, it was at the beginning of last month that the relationship was officially established." Li Tang said calmly.
Li Xiuxiu once worked as a reporter. What reporters are best at is picking words and capturing valuable things from a few words. She keenly caught the key word "almost" from Li Tang's words, which showed that the relationship between the two was not stable, or that they were in trouble. Li Tang subconsciously did not regard Xiao Bingbing as his real girlfriend.
She looked at Li Tang without showing any emotion and said, "Brother, then you and my sister have completely broken up?"
"..."
Li Tang didn't know how to answer for a moment. Although his ex-girlfriend was not as beautiful as Fan Xiaopang, and her figure was not as good as Fan Xiaopang's, she still had a basis for feelings.
It's like you have a mobile phone that you have used for a long time, and now a new model is released. You buy a new one, but will you throw away the replaced mobile phone? Maybe you will keep it so that if the new phone breaks down, you can still take out the old phone and use it.
He could only say helplessly: "This situation between your sister and I will not last forever, but we can still become very good friends, or..."
He paused for a moment and then said slowly: "Maybe they are relatives."
Calling friends may be a bit hypocritical, but only family members are the most accurate expression.
Li Xiuxiu did not hide the light in her eyes. It seemed that there was still hope for her sister and him. When she opened her mouth to make some insinuating remarks, Li Binbin walked out of the kitchen with the dishes.
"It's time to eat, Xiuxiu, help me get the dishes and chopsticks."
Li Xiuxiu could only close her mouth with regret. While getting up, she still said enthusiastically: "Brother, let's have two drinks together tonight."
"No……"
Just when Li Tang was about to say no, Li Xiuxiu had already run to the kitchen with joy, giving him no chance to refuse.
Today, my ex-girlfriend cooked a table of Northeastern dishes, including pot-roasted pork, braised white meat with pickled cabbage, chicken stewed with mushrooms, black and white vegetables, ground three delicacies, dried tofu with hot peppers, and big ramen.
Li Tang looked at it and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Can you two sisters eat so much?"
"Isn't it you?"
His ex-girlfriend rolled her eyes at him, turned around and took out a bottle of white wine from the dining room cabinet door.
Li Xiuxiu said with a smile: "Haha, they are all my favorite food. My sister loves me the most."
Without saying a word, the ex-girlfriend took three glasses and a bottle of liquor and divided them equally between the three of them.
"As promised, this is the bottle."
Li Tang didn't dare to make excuses in the face of these two sisters, but he kept his composure even after a bottle of white wine.
As a result, Li Xiuxiu was not happy when she heard it, and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, why are you so bitchy now? It's rare for the three of us to get together today, so we must drink well."
With that, he raised his cup and said, "Come on, brother, long time no see, let's go first."
Are you kidding me? One cup, two or three.
Li Tang hurriedly said: "Whatever, whatever."
"No, at least half."
"one third."
"Brother, why don't you have any sincerity at all? You only do half what you promised."
Li Xiuxiu's attitude was very firm.
Li Tang could only look at his ex-girlfriend with eyes asking for help, but the girl acted as if she hadn't seen him and didn't pick up on him. Instead, she took out a bottle of wine.
In desperation, he had no choice but to raise his glass and said, "Okay, let's drink half of it."
As a result, he had just finished half of the drink. Before he could put down the cup, Li Xiuxiu shouted again: "Brother, my sister finally won the Best Actress Award at the Li Jiapo Film Festival. You should give her a toast too!"
Li Tang looked at his ex-girlfriend and saw that she was smiling but not smiling. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sister Bingbing, congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
My ex-girlfriend was very straightforward. She picked up the glass of wine in front of her and downed it in one gulp!
It's really three, two, three, one gulp.
Li Tang had no choice but to toast.
Well, I didn’t eat a bite of the food, but drank a glass of it in two mouthfuls.
In fact, when it comes to drinking capacity, he is really not as good as these two sisters.
He quickly picked up a piece of food and stuffed it into his mouth while drinking wine.
Before he could swallow the food in his mouth, he saw his ex-girlfriend opened another bottle and refilled his glass.
The ex-girlfriend talked very little today, but Li Xiuxiu kept talking with her little mouth, and recalled the past events, such as when Li Tang accompanied his sister to Hangzhou to give her things, and often secretly stuffed her with money.
Of course, Li Tang would not say that half of his sister-in-law is his brother-in-law. After all, these are all the great achievements of the original person. But he also saw that Li Xiuxiu was deliberately mentioning the past, and he could only respond with an awkward smile.
It's just that this former sister-in-law wanted to target him specifically today. Sometimes she said, "Brother, I wish you to become the male lead in a CCTV drama.", and sometimes she said, "Brother, I wish you will win an award at this college student film festival."
In short, they are trying to make him drink in a different way.
Li Tang struggled a little at first, but after a few glasses of wine, he simply lay down and refused to accept anyone who came.
First update! I have a headache this morning, so the update is a bit late, sorry. The second update is expected at 9 or 10 pm.
