Looking at the name on the caller ID, Li Tang hesitated for a moment, cleared his throat, and answered the call:
"Hello!"
"Brother Li, how are you doing?"
It's still that soft and gentle voice.
"Ah, that's good."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then he said with a slightly resentful tone: "Brother Li, is it true that if I don't call, you won't take the initiative to contact me?"
"Uh... no, haven't you been busy lately?"
"I heard that you were filming in Shanghai recently?"
"yes."
"Are you busy today?"
"I'm not busy. I just finished filming in the afternoon. I'm at home now."
"Huh? That's great!"
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became excited, and then immediately said: "Originally, I was thinking about coming over to visit a class, so let's get together!"
"Hey, you are in Shanghai?" Li Tang couldn't help but asked in surprise.
"Yes, I arrived yesterday. I came to Shanghai with Brother Youpeng and Sister Jingwen to record a talk show. "The Story of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" will be broadcast on Shanghai TV this weekend." Gao Yuanyuan said on the phone.
What a coincidence.
Li Tang had no choice but to find something to say: "Did the recording of the program go smoothly?"
"Well, it went pretty well. I just arrived at the hotel now... Well, I thought I haven't contacted you for a long time. You happen to be in Shanghai too, so I just gave you a call."
"Yes, we haven't contacted each other for a long time. So, are you still with Brother Youpeng and Jingwen?"
Li Tang thought that since Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen were both here, they could arrange to have a meal together to show their friendship as landlords and at the same time satisfy Gao Yuanyuan's request for a get-together.
"I'm in my room. Brother Youpeng and Sister Jingwen are packing their luggage. They have to catch a flight soon."
"how about you?"
"Me, I originally wanted to spend a few days in Shanghai. Brother Li, is it inconvenient for you here? If it's not convenient, then forget it."
Gao Yuanyuan heard his vague words, obviously unwilling, and her tone inevitably became a little frustrated at the end.
Li Tang felt that the biggest change after time travel compared to his previous life was that his heart was too soft. This may be due to the emotional fusion with the original memory, including his previous relationship with his ex-girlfriend. In a word: he was always too soft-hearted.
At this time, he clearly felt that the previous scandal had just passed, and it was best for the two of them to keep a certain distance from each other during this period, so as not to be photographed again, and they might be so full of words that they could not explain clearly.
But when he heard Gao Yuanyuan's frustrated tone, he blurted out without even thinking about it: "No, it's not inconvenient. Then... then I'll treat you to dinner."
"OK!"
Gao Yuanyuan's delighted voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone.
"Then where do you live? I'll come to pick you up later."
"I live in room 2608, Xinjinjiang."
"My place is very close to your place. It will take at least seven or eight minutes to get here. I will give you a call when I leave later. I will wait for you at the door of the hotel."
After saying that, Li Tang specifically asked: "Oh, by the way, wear more clothes and don't wear a skirt."
"Ah, why?"
"I drive a motorcycle."
Li Tang would not be so low-spirited as to drive Teacher Jiang's new car to pick up other women. Right now, his only means of transportation is a motorcycle. But he just ignored the lethality of motorcycles to girls. In the environment where motorcycles are restricted, motorcycles are rarely seen in big cities, especially for people like Gao Yuanyuan, who is also a celebrity and is usually picked up and dropped off by car.
Just imagine, the man you love is driving a motorcycle, and you are sitting on the back... Wow, it's just like the scene in "If the Sky Is Loved", it's so romantic!
In particular, Gao Yuanyuan remembered the scene where Li Tang took her to Dinghai Ancient City on a scooter. Unfortunately, the journey was too short. And it was precisely that time when the two of them happened on the steps of Dinghai Ancient City Tower that something wonderful happened that she could never forget.
At this time, Gao Yuanyuan thought that Li Tang did it on purpose to continue the romance at that time, and immediately said in surprise: "That's true! Okay, I know!"
After hanging up the phone, Gao Yuanyuan looked excited and urged her assistant: "Xiaojuan, bring the suitcase quickly, I want to change clothes."
Xiaojuan had a bitter look on her face. She could clearly hear her just now, and said with a sad face: "Sister, do you really want to go out with Teacher Li?"
"Of course, we just agreed on the phone, and he will drive a motorcycle to pick me up." Gao Yuanyuan said with an infatuated look, and then quickly urged: "Why are you standing there, go get your luggage quickly. Box!"
"Yes, but the company told me last time to keep distance between you and Teacher Li..."
Before Xiaojuan finished her words of persuasion, she was interrupted by Gao Yuanyuan with a wink: "Oh, as long as you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how will the company know?"
"..."
Although Xiaojuan is the assistant assigned to Gao Yuanyuan by the company, her decision to leave or leave her is a matter of Gao Yuanyuan's words. And everyone who works as an assistant knows how difficult it is to meet a boss who is generous and good-tempered.
Anyway, she had already done what she needed to do, and she had fulfilled the responsibilities assigned to her by the company, but she had no choice but to do it even if her boss didn't listen.
I had no choice but to obediently walk over and drag the suitcase over, squat on the ground and open the suitcase, raised my head and asked, "Sister, what clothes do you want to change into?"
"Did you bring that orange leather jacket?"
"Did not bring!"
"Oh, why didn't you bring it with you..."
She didn't dare to think about the scene in "The Sky Is Love" where Wu Qianlian was wearing a wedding dress and sitting on the back of Andy Lau's motorcycle. In her imagination, a leather knight was the best match for a leather jacket and a motorcycle.
It was a pity that she didn't bring her leather jacket. Regretfully, she knelt down and rummaged through the suitcase by herself.
Although the box is large, I originally brought several sets of clothes when I came out to record the show. In the end, I could only find a light-colored denim jacket, paired with a pair of dark khaki pants, and a black turtleneck sweater underneath. .
She has a long neck, and a turtleneck looks good and keeps her warm. She also let down her hair, which was tied into a ponytail. She felt particularly handsome in the scene in the movie where she takes off her helmet and shakes her head, with her long hair flowing.
Just as I was packing, my phone rang.
"Are you ready? I'm leaving now."
"Okay, okay, I'll go downstairs right away." Gao Yuanyuan said quickly.
Xiaojuan on the side still looked worried and said: "Sister, be careful, don't let reporters take pictures this time."
"Bah, crow's mouth!"
Gao Yuanyuan turned around and pinched Xiaojuan's fat cheek, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's okay! I'll give you a day off today. You can go out for a walk and your expenses will be reimbursed!"
This year Shanghai introduced new regulations. The imported classic car used by Li Tang when filming "Suzhou River" has reached the end of life and can no longer be driven on the road. It can only be used as a collection. Today he could only drive the Xingfu 90. Fortunately, he had already done maintenance on the car in advance when he came back this time.
From the old apartment on Wuyuan Road to Xinjinjiang on Changle Road, it passes through five intersections and is less than two kilometers away. He told Gao Yuanyuan on the phone that it would take seven or eight minutes, but in fact it was only five minutes.
There were people coming and going at the entrance of the five-star hotel, but he didn't dare to take off his helmet. Not long after, Gao Yuanyuan, who had long hair shawl and wore a light-colored coat, walked out of the hotel door. She spotted him waiting on the roadside at a glance, and immediately showed a bright smile and trotted over.
"Brother Li! Wow, what brand of motorcycle do you have?"
"Happiness card, the most common one in Shanghai."
Li Tang said and handed her a helmet.
Speaking of which, this Xingfu 90 is already considered a very bad motorcycle, but as long as you look at the license plate, it is not to be underestimated. Shanghai A yellow card means you can run anywhere in the city except that you can't get on the elevated highway. Moreover, the issuance of this kind of motorcycle license plate has been stopped. In addition, with the introduction of the Shanghai A yellow plate motorcycle-to-car policy in the past two years, the current yellow A license plate is basically the same price as the private car auctioned for taking pictures. In addition, there are also There are rare attributes, and even worse ones.
"okay!"
Li Tang wore a full-face helmet, and Gao Yuanyuan wore a half-helmet. Maybe it was her first time wearing such a half-helmet, and she didn't know how to tie the straps.
Li Tang saw her clumsy look, which was exactly the same as Zhou Xun's movements when filming "Suzhou River", so he had to go over and help her tie the chin strap.
While tying the belt, Gao Yuanyuan kept peeking at his face.
"Why, there are flowers on my face?" Li Tang noticed the look in her eyes and couldn't help but joked with a smile.
"Long time no see, I wanted to see you!"
Since confessing her love, Gao Yuanyuan has become much more courageous than before, and she even dares to act coquettishly with him.
Moreover, her soft and coquettish voice had a different feeling in Li Tang's ears.
But he could only pretend to be stupid. After getting in the car, he told Gao Yuanyuan, who was climbing into the back seat, "Hold on, a motorcycle is no better than a scooter."
"Know it!"
After Gao Yuanyuan got into the car, not only did she tightly hold his waist with her hands, but her entire upper body lay on his back.
Li Tang tried not to feel the softness on his back, and just shouted: "Sit tight!"
Then he started the motorcycle and drove forward.
Go west along Changle Road, turn to Huashan Road, pass Xujiahui, and drive out of the city along Caoxi North Road.
"Brother Li, where are we going?" Gao Yuanyuan asked, lying on Li Tang's shoulder.
"Take you to eat something delicious."
Just kidding, since he was secretly photographed last time, Li Tang now dares to take Gao Yuanyuan to eat in the city so arrogantly, he can only run in a remote direction.
At first, Gao Yuanyuan didn't notice anything strange. When she passed by Chedun Film and Television City, she saw several representative high-rise buildings standing in the distance. She even said excitedly: "That's the film and television city over there, how can we get here?" coming?"
Li Tang just said vaguely: "It's almost there."
After the film and television city disappeared from sight, and after driving along the highway for a while, the motorcycle turned into a secluded small road. There was a big river on the right side of this small road, and fields on the left. There were no other houses around.
Seeing that the road was getting more and more desolate, although Gao Yuanyuan was not nervous, she still couldn't hide her surprise and said: "Brother Li, where are we going to eat?"
As the destination was approaching, Li Tang slowed down and said with a smile, "If I said I tricked you into selling you today, would you believe it?"
"Do not believe!"
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and said, "If you said you were going to be a bandit and steal me to be the wife of the stronghold, maybe I would still believe it."
"..."
There was no way to continue the conversation. At this moment, a houseboat appeared on the river. Li Tang quickly pointed at it and said: "We're here, we're here, let's eat here."
This big river is a tributary of the Huangpu River, and further out is the estuary where it meets the Huangpu River. When he was filming at Chedun Film and Television City before, the assistant director of the crew took him here for a meal.
This boathouse restaurant called "Shuangrenjia" specializes in river seafood and local chicken. It coincides with the beginning of spring, which is the most plump season of river seafood. Li Tang tasted it once and thought it tasted good, so he even brought a business card. Today, he asked Gao Yuanyuan to have dinner together. He immediately thought of coming here and called in advance to reserve a small private room.
This houseboat is built on two side-by-side cement boats, divided into seven or eight private rooms. Although it is located in a remote location, the business is good, and several cars have been parked on the roadside, all coming here to eat.
Parking the motorcycle on the side of the road, Gao Yuanyuan was particularly surprised: "You can actually find a place like this?"
"I had it last time and it tasted good. The most important thing is safety!" Li Tang said cheerfully.
Hearing the word "safety", Gao Yuanyuan's expression froze slightly, but she immediately returned to normal and said, "Let's go and have a taste."
The last time the scandal broke out between the two, Gao Yuanyuan had always been indifferent in her heart, and even secretly rejoiced. She was eager to make their relationship public.
But after all, her arms couldn't hold her thighs. She signed a contract with the company, and the company spent so much effort to let her play the second female lead in "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", which was completely praised. At this time, the scandal between her and Li Tang may increase the popularity, but it is detrimental to her long-term development. The company made a decision, and Li Tang was also eager to refute the rumors, so she could only cooperate and try not to contact Li Tang during this period according to the company's decision.
Today, Li Tang asked her to go out for dinner. Although she said it well to her assistant Xiaojuan verbally, in fact, she was secretly hoping that she would be secretly photographed again. In this case, there would be no way to refute the rumors. can create a fait accompli.
But she didn't expect that Li Tang would drag her to a place like this. Well, it was indeed safe enough.
The space in the houseboat is limited, and there is only a small table for four in the small private room. After sitting down, Li Tang handed over the menu: "What would you like to eat?"
Inviting female celebrities to dinner is a very troublesome thing, because they always put maintaining their figure first. If they don't eat this, they won't eat that. Even if they want to eat, they will only eat a little bit like a kitten.
Gao Yuanyuan is okay. She prefers to eat, but she can also control her food intake. She wants to eat but dare not eat more.
"Since you said it's delicious here, you can order it, as long as it's delicious."
When Li Tang orders dishes, he must order the local chicken pot; there are also saltwater river prawns. The spring river prawns are seeded and especially fresh; the screws before the Qingming Festival are the most plump; and a steamed white water fish will be OK.
"Would you like some coconut milk for the drink? Warm it a little, it tastes good." Li Tang suggested.
The Li Tang family owns a restaurant, and the drinks in restaurants often have one type of drink that is popular for a period of time. For example, Sprite and Coke were first popular, and later orange juice and yogurt became popular. Recently, coconut milk has become popular, and it must be the coconut brand.
"OK!"
Gao Yuanyuan looked like it was all up to you.
Li Tang glanced at her chest subconsciously, took off his denim jacket, and the black sweater outlined his good figure.
Well, there are benefits to drinking more coconut milk!
I'll just do one update today if I'm lazy, and I'll try my best to do two updates tomorrow.
