Returning to Beijing (Collect and recommend!)
Winters in Kyoto are dry and cold, exhaling a mouthful of air would produce a puff of white mist. What's even more hateful is that the air is filled with turbid air, taking a breath is like smoking, making one's throat ache.
In such weather, all pedestrians also wore masks and put on thick down jackets, wrapping themselves up like a rice dumpling, as if to hide every bit of flesh and resolutely not expose themselves to the air.
As soon as Ye Sumang and Ning Hao got off the plane at Kyoto International Airport, they both shivered due to the cold air.
For several months, the two had been filming in the south and had almost forgotten the chill of Beijing. Now that they were back home, this familiar bone-piercing sensation suddenly awakened their bodily memories.
Behind them came Liu Yifei and her mother.
As four people living in Kyoto together, they happened to take the same flight.
"Su Mang, just drop me off here, I've been troubling you for a while now, and I'm starting to feel a bit embarrassed." Inside the airport, Liu's mom looked at Ye Su Mang and Ning Hao with some embarrassment.
They were originally empty-handed, but now they were helping Liu's mother and daughter carry several large suitcases.
"Auntie, what's the fuss about? These physically demanding tasks are naturally for us boys to do. Can't we even let Xianxian that little thing lift these things? Wouldn't that be a loss of face for us boys?" Ye Sumang heard Liu Mama's words and intentionally pretended to respond with grievance, while also winking at the quietly standing Liu Yifei on the side.
Seeing Ye Sumang's eyes, Liu Yifei pouted her small mouth and raised her arm to make a "I'm very strong" gesture.
"Hahaha..." The four of them were laughing loudly at the girl's silly expression.
"Alright, our Yifei is not a delicate girl, she's very strong! I remember when she was little, she could carry a big box of books up to the fifth floor all by herself..." Liu Mama stroked her daughter's head, recalling the fun times from her childhood and taking care of her emotions.
Liu Yifei was enjoying her mother's caress while winking at Ye Sumang with a smug look.
The four of them chatted and laughed as they quickly walked out of the airport hall. Since none of them had notified anyone of their return, there was no car to pick them up.
Fortunately, the airport was not short of taxis, and Ning Hao quickly found one. As the taxi stopped steadily, Ye Su Mang did not rush to leave, but instead helped the driver lift the luggage into the trunk of the taxi, and after finishing these tasks, he politely opened the car door for Liu's mother and daughter, until they were seated before closing the door.
"Suman, when you have time, come to Auntie's house and sit down, Auntie will make your favorite dish for you!" Liu Mama sincerely invited Ye Suman as she rolled down the car window.
"Got it, Auntie! When the time comes, I'll go to your place for New Year's greetings. You'd better prepare a bigger red envelope for me!"
Liu Yifei, who was sitting next to her, also secretly made a "phone" gesture towards Ye Sumang, and Ye Sumang nodded knowingly, understanding that the little girl wanted her to contact her by phone.
This is a little secret between Ye Su Mang and Liu Yi Fei.
The two people rarely gather together on the set, but their connection is very close, and the key in between is the phone.
Since that night when the two of them walked together on the soft stone road, Ye Sumang had always been able to receive text messages from the girl. The content was mostly some trivial chatter, sometimes with a little sigh or complaint. The girl seemed to have also regarded Ye Sumang as someone like a "sister who understands her heart", and would tell him one or two things that she couldn't reveal to others.
All Ye Su Mang needs to do is quietly listen, occasionally responding with a few words of comfort, or helping her think of solutions when she's troubled. Gradually, the girl's text messages have also become a habit in his life.
Under Liu's mother's persuasion, Ye Sumang still insisted on paying the fare for them and then turned around to leave with Ning Huan.
Looking at Ye Sumang's back, Liu Mama had a face of appreciation.
"This kid is really good." The car started slowly, and Liu's mother turned back, whispering a sentence to Liu Yifei beside her.
"Mom, you've said that many times." Although she complained with her mouth, Liu Yifei's face was always smiling, and her mood didn't seem bad either.
"It also depends on the person, Su Mang is a child who can't be praised enough..."
In Liu Mama's eyes, Ye Sumang is not only excellent in appearance, but also calm and capable at work, and privately, she is also approachable and polite to everyone. "Beautiful inside and out" is the evaluation that Liu Mama secretly gives to Ye Sumang in her heart, this kind of character also wins her favor and trust.
So on the set, as long as she was preparing some nutritious food for Yifei, she would also bring a portion to Yesu Mang at the same time. Whenever there were any problems, she would also find Yesu Mang first and ask him to think of ways to help solve them.
After bidding farewell to Liu's mother and daughter, Ye Sumang and Ning Hao took another taxi, heading towards the Kyoto Film Studio. Ning Hao was returning to his dormitory, while Ye Sumang was rushing towards her long-separated home.
At the gate of Kyoto Film Studio, Ye Sumang got off the car and bid farewell to Ning Hao. He hurriedly ran towards home, four months had passed, he especially missed the taste of his home now.
It was still the same old-fashioned quadrangle courtyard, but at this moment, in Ye Sumang's eyes, it was more beautiful than any villa or high-rise building. Breathing in the familiar scent of the air, Ye Sumang excitedly stepped through the gate and shouted loudly: "Grandpa, I'm back!"
"Su Mang?" At this time, Old Master Ye was sitting in the rocking chair in the house listening to the radio, suddenly heard a familiar voice, his heart skipped a beat, hastily put on his old glasses and looked out the window.
A black velvet windbreaker, a tall stature, and that familiar pretty face - wasn't the boy standing in the courtyard his dear grandson Ye Sumang?
"Su Mang, come in quickly! How could you come back without telling us a word!" Ye Lao Ye was overjoyed. This morning he was still looking forward to his grandson's return, but unexpectedly he appeared right before him so suddenly.
"I didn't want to surprise you!" Ye Sumeng smiled coquettishly and handed over a large bag she was carrying, saying: "This time when we were shooting on the grasslands, I heard that wolf skin blankets are particularly warm and good for old cold legs, so I bought one for you. Try it out later."
"Alright, alright..." Grandpa smiled and took over the bag, pulling out the wolf skin from inside.
It's about one meter eight in length, and the leather treatment is also very good, with no strange smell. The fur feels very soft to the touch, and I'm sure it would be very comfortable to lie on. Old Master Ye had long heard that this thing was good for old cold legs, but unfortunately, he had never found a place to buy it, and didn't expect his grandson to bring one back for him when he went out to work.
What touches him even more is that his own children have finally grown up and started showing their gratitude and respect for him.
"Su Mang, you go back to your room and take a nap first. Today, Grandpa will cook in the kitchen and make something delicious for you." After putting away the wolf skin, Ye Lao Yezi smiled and put on his coat, preparing to go out and buy some of Su Mang's favorite foods to come back and personally cook.
Ye Sumang felt tired after being on the plane for a long time and nodded before heading to his own room.
Ye Sumang's own room was not big, but he felt it was more comfortable than any star-rated hotel he had stayed in outside. As the saying goes, 'A golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as one's own doghouse.' Although his home was small, it still had the flavor of home. Lying on his spotless little bed, enjoying the warmth of home, Ye Sumang soon fell into a dreamland...
In the following three days, apart from accompanying his grandfather at home, Ye Sumang also made time to return to the company and comfort Huang Bo, who had been staying in Kyoto all along.
Actually, since filming started, Ye Sumang had often heard Huang Bo's complaints that he and Ning Hao were not close enough, abandoning his brothers to find happiness on their own. As for this point, Ye Sumang also felt very wronged - who made Huang Bo have a face that was not pleasing to the eye? This kind of youth idol drama really didn't have a place for him.
Here is the translation:
Along with Huang Bo and Ning Hao, the three of them ate and drank for several days. Ye Su Mang received another call from Xie Fei, who clearly told him that he must return to school within the next two days...
Ye Sumang thought for a moment, and indeed since the start of school, he hadn't been to the Film Academy. This was not very proper. To think that Xie Fei had sincerely invited him to be the freshman representative speaker, but due to work reasons, Ye Sumang had declined. At this point, the first half of the semester was about to end, and Ye Sumang felt he should go to the academy to show his face.
However, Ye Su-mang was not the only one who received such a notice. In a high-end apartment not far from Ye Su-mang, Liu Yi-fei also received a notification from the Film Academy...
