I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 31 031. That’s my dad, do you believe it?

"Dingling bell~~"

"Hello?"

"Is the movie finished?"

"Um...you just saw it?"

Glancing at the 10:15 clock on the wall, Xu Xin put down the book and asked funnyly:

"The message I sent in the afternoon was six or seven hours old, and you only saw it?"

"I just came back, brother."

Through the phone, Xu Xin could feel the way Yang Mi was rolling her eyes.

"I went to my grandma's house today. Didn't I just get home? I looked at the messages in the computer group and saw the message you sent. How was it? Did the photo go well?"

After hearing this, Xu Xin might have praised her greatly in the afternoon.

But by now he had calmed down.

So he laughed and said:

"I think it's pretty good. Just wait and see if it's okay."

"But I want to see it now... Oh, if I had known, I would have gone to see you today!"

The girl was full of regrets.

But the conversation immediately changed:

"Eh? How will you spend your fifteenth day tomorrow?"

"Uh... let's just live like that."

"In Yanjing, right?"

"Otherwise, where can we go? Although we can take a flight back, it would be too much trouble to go back and forth."

"...Then let's make an appointment to meet at the school tomorrow. How about it? I'll tell the instructor and apply for the small hall. You bring the film and I'll go take a look?"

"Don't bother me. I have a set of equipment at home. If you want to watch it, just come to me tomorrow. The definition of the school TV is not as good as the new Sony I bought."

"OK!"

Upon hearing Xu Xin's proposal, the girl readily agreed:

"Then let's put it this way...you will live your life on your own when you are fifteen, right? Do you want to eat Yuanxiao?"

"Eat. Why don't you just buy a pack of glutinous rice balls from the supermarket tomorrow?"

"What are you eating glutinous rice balls?"

The girl’s voice was extremely resistant:

"How about I bring you Yuanxiao? I brought a big bag of Yuanxiao when I came back from my grandma's house. It's delicious! You wait for me at noon tomorrow and I'll bring you some Yuanxiao. Otherwise, it's so big It’s not like you’re fifteen if you don’t eat Yuanxiao. Watch that movie by the way, it’s interesting at least.”

After hearing this, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

"Okay, that means you're coming over for lunch tomorrow, right?"

"Don't you know how to do it? I'm going to your place to watch a movie, and I'll bring you Lantern Festival for a meal."

"terrific!"

"Hey, it's settled then. Just wait until noon tomorrow. I'll hang up first."

"OK Bye Bye."

On the other side of the phone, as soon as Yang Mi hung up the phone, there was a knock on the door.

Yang Chunling, who was applying a facial mask to her face, opened the door with a curious expression:

"Daughter, who should you call at this late hour?"

"Classmate, the one who made the movie a few years ago. Mom, decorate the Lantern Festival for me tomorrow and I'll bring it to my classmates. I won't be eating at home at noon~"

"Okay~"

Yang Chunling nodded, and then said as if asking a casual question:

"Boys and girls?"

"...Female classmate."

The girl smiled with her small white teeth.

"Oh~~"

Yang Chunling nodded, then pointed outside and mouthed:

"Your dad asked me to ask."

But the girl didn't have any surprise, she just rolled her eyes and made an "OK" gesture.

…

The Lantern Festival in 2006 represented the complete end of the Spring Festival.

It ended peacefully.

Last year, in December 2005, Yanjing promulgated new regulations prohibiting the setting off of fireworks.

It means that the days when you can hear the sound of firecrackers during the New Year in Yanjing are gone forever.

In Xu Xin's opinion, this regulation is quite speechless.

In his hometown, how could it be possible without setting off firecrackers during the New Year?

The bigger the gun, the better, and the louder the gun, the better.

Because this represents a prosperous life.

Especially on the 30th, 1st and 15th days of the Lunar New Year, the sound of firecrackers is even more lively from morning to night.

But what about Yanjing?

Quietly...

Can't hear anything.

After the eighth day of the Lunar New Year was added, the city's rhythm returned to normal again, so much so that it even lost the feeling of the New Year.

But there is nothing we can do. Just bear with it.

Wash your face, brush your teeth, go for a morning run, and have breakfast.

Living an extremely healthy life, he even made a special trip to the vegetable market. When he came back, he was holding half a lamb chop in his hand.

Although he can't cook, he can still cook mutton.

Just wash the mutton, throw it into a pot and boil it in water, then dip it in the seasoning and eat it.

After finishing the work, the time came to around 9 o'clock.

He didn't ask when the girl would come over, he just tidied up the house. When people from the province came to visit, they looked at it in a mess.

And by the time he finished wiping it off for the first time, he was so tired that he was sweating.

It had been a long time since I had cleaned the house myself. I felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden work.

At this moment, his phone rang.

Pick it up and take a look and connect directly to:

"Hey, Dad."

"Making sawa?"

"sweep the floor."

"Oh, sweep...sa!?"

Xu Daqiang's voice was full of surprise.

My son is sweeping the floor?

The sun comes out in the west?

Xu Xin was also speechless, wondering why you, old man, are making such a fuss.

So he asked directly:

"What's wrong, Dad, are you causing trouble?"

"Hey hey hey~"

Unexpectedly, Xu Daqiang suddenly laughed:

"Here, baby, guess where dad is?"

Xu Xinxin said what are you guessing about, and said speechlessly:

"Home? Or a bathhouse?"

"Hehe, they don't look alike. We just passed Tianmen Square. This one... is called... Chang'an Avenue Guidengshikou~ This is the way to our house, right?"

"...????"

Xu Xin was stunned:

"where?"

"We have arrived at the entrance of Guaidian Market. Oops, is the place where we live called Shen Hutong? Laosi Hutong? Is it called Shenhua?"

I didn’t complain that Xu Daqiang had forgotten where the courtyard he bought was.

Xu Xin asked speechlessly:

"You came to Yanjing? Where is my brother?"

"That's right. It's the Lantern Festival. I'm begging you. Er Dafei said that the baby was pitiful in Yanjing alone. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to eat well, so I killed a sheep and brought it to you. Please don't let me go through the security check at the airport. I came on a chartered flight. Wow. Your brother didn't come, so he went to Xi'an and went home with Qianqian. Oh~ I remembered it, Shijia Hutong! Yes, yes, Xiao Li, it's just like this...you go out, here you go! Where is our home? ?”

"..."

Xu Xin held up the phone and walked toward the door silently.

As soon as I walked out the door, I looked to the right and saw a Mercedes-Benz business car heading this way with double flashes.

He quickly waved, but then he suddenly found a man wearing a cotton hat waving to him next to the commercial vehicle.

Xu Xin was stunned for a moment...the next second he suddenly saw the person waving clearly.

Isn’t that Yang Mi?

She also had a phone in her hand and a plastic bag in her hand. After waving to herself, she lowered her head and ran this way...

Why is she here too?

Before Xu Xin had time to react, he suddenly heard Xu Daqiang's voice coming from the phone:

"Hey, this woman is so cute. Who is she waving to...huh???"

"..."

Xu Xin was holding the phone and was a little confused, but Yang Mi had already ran over, wheezing:

"Why can't you get through on the phone?...How did you know I was here?"

"..."

Xu Xin hasn't spoken yet.

Because Xu Daqiang on the phone said:

"Isn't it the right time for dad to come?"

"..."

"Why don't you talk?"

The girl holding a bag of Yuanxiao was speechless.

But Xu Xin was even more speechless.

He looked at Yang Mi...and then at the commercial vehicle parked on the side of the road...

For a moment, I didn't even know what to say.

"What are you looking at?"

Yang Mi turned her head subconsciously, and after seeing a commercial car parked on the side of the road, she asked in confusion:

"What's the matter?"

"...I said it was my dad in the car, do you believe it?"

"?"
