The sky began to get dark as the hazy lights and shadows swept across the car window, reflecting Ye Zhi’s side profile. Amidst the setting half filled with both light and darkness, Ye Zhi’s eyelids began to feel heavy.
The constant and intense frequencies of filming made Ye Zhi very tired. Now that she started to relax, her exhaustion gradually hit her with full force. She wanted to say something, but she couldn’t resist the drowsiness and closed her eyes.
Seeing this, Nie Jiqing shook her head helplessly. In the next second, the car turned around and drove straight to the Sheng mansion.
Ye Zhi stayed at Sheng house for one night. The next day, she got up early and rushed to the set for a shooting. Ye Zhi was busy on the set all day and Gu Ren was also scampering around at home all day. During noon, he called Ye Zhi.
Gu Ren had a clear understanding of Ye Zhi’s filming schedule. She didn’t have a night show today and would end work in the afternoon.When the call came, Ye Zhi was finishing her lunch. In order to maintain her weight, she did not eat boxed meals prepared for the crew as each meal of hers was a weight loss meal prepared by the studio.
Seeing two words that made up a certain name displayed on the screen, Ye Zhi found a place with no one and answered the phone. Gu Ren’s clear voice came from the other end, “Are you coming home today?”
“I’ll finish work by five o’clock,” Ye Zhi lowered her eyes and thought for a while, “I have the time to go home.”
Gu Ren let out a sigh of relief as if he had something on his mind. The line over his side was quiet for a moment before he asked tentatively, “Should I go over to pick you up?”
“I think I’ll drive back myself,” Ye Zhi replied quickly.
Gu Ren visited her set twice before, which had caused an uproar. If he was photographed picking her up from the set again, it would cause a lot of discussion.
Gu Ren didn’t object to it and he just chuckled, “Okay.”Because of Nie Jiqing’s help, Ye Zhi still didn’t know anything about what happened at home. She thought that today was, at most, an ordinary night.
After Ye Zhi finished work, she drove away from the studio. She went to the brokerage company’s parking lot and changed her car. After making sure there were no paparazzi in sight, she went home.
After several turns, it was already night time when Ye Zhi arrived home.
On a spring night, the temperature was fairly moderate, mixed with a slight warmth and a little chilly night wind. For some reason, the closer she got to home, the more strange Ye Zhi felt.
From a distance, the lights of the family mansion were on and it seemed to harbour no difference from how it usually looked like. Her car drove into the garden, but there was no one around. This night was extraordinarily quiet, as if everything was blocked by the night wind.
Ye Zhi got out of the car. In spring, the garden at home was well taken care of and the rose bushes scattered along the way were exquisite and beautiful. The street lights on both sides were on as the gentle light slanted down and landed on the ground, making the pavement appear to be an even lighter shade of white.
Ye Zhi walked all the way in and a cold sensation came across her cheek. She stopped abruptly and looked up before she found herself frozen in place.
In the night sky that was as quiet as snow, there were actual snowflakes falling. The pure white snow covered the skies and the ground, emitting a small wave of coldness in the air.
It was clearly spring, but it was suddenly snowing?
