Chapter 399 Only when she's by my side do I feel at peace.
A warm feeling rose in Zhen Zhen's heart upon receiving An Xiaoyue's invitation.
At Xiaoyue's wedding, she met Xiaoyue's entire family.
The father is gentle and refined, and the mother is graceful and intellectual; they are clearly parents who are reasonable and respectful of their children.
Her father's older brother and sister-in-law loved her more than their own son. The love in their eyes was so intense and sincere.
Her cousin was always thinking of her best interests.
A delicious piece of chocolate would be presented to Xiaoyue, and she would be told...
"Xiaoyue, this is your favorite lava chocolate. Only this kind of packaging is it; the others are not. You should choose carefully when you eat it."
It's a childlike act, yet it makes people feel happy and loved.
The two elders in the family are humorous, witty, kind, and compassionate.
She was incredibly envious of that kind of family atmosphere.
She never envied Xiaoyue's intelligence, Xiaoyue's background, or her considerate husband.
However, she envied Xiaoyue's family atmosphere and how Xiaoyue was loved and pampered by so many people.
Zhen Zhen couldn't help but think that traveling with a harmonious and loving family would surely make her beam with happiness.
Since Xiaoyue asked her, it meant she was genuinely inviting her, and it wasn't just a casual inquiry out of social politeness.
Zhenzhen knew that she really wanted to go.
But is it appropriate for her, an outsider, to go along when everyone else is having a family reunion?
She typed carefully: 【Will this be inconvenient?】
An Xiaoyue: [No.]
Zhen Zhen: [Wouldn't it be a hassle to book an extra room?]
An Xiaoyue: [My brother booked a detached house; one more person won't be a problem.]
Zhen Zhen was deeply moved and bit her lip.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she eagerly declared, "I want to go!"
An Xiaoyue smiled and forwarded the travel guide from the family group chat to Zhen Zhen.
[Please read the guide carefully and prepare the items according to the suggestions. There's nothing else you need to prepare. The mountain road is winding and narrow, so you'll be traveling up the mountain in the same car as us.]
She doesn't even have to drive; how wonderful!
Surrounded by happiness, is this Xiaoyue's daily life?
Zhen Zhen: [Understood.]
An Xiaoyue put down her phone and continued working.
Zhen Zhen obediently opened the strategy guide and read it carefully.
The guide is very informative, with daily temperatures, clothing recommendations, photo spots, and tea recommendations all clearly written down.
Such a detailed guide could only be created with care and love.
She was in the RV, looking at travel guides and writing down what she needed to bring in a notebook.
We need gifts for the New Year, yes, we need to prepare gifts for everyone, but what gifts should we buy?
Zhen Zhen felt that time had suddenly become very tight.
There's still one last scene to film, and I need to treat the whole crew to dinner.
She had a lot to take care of, but she was happy and looking forward to the trip.
Liang Chao hadn't been gone long, but she felt exhausted as if she'd walked a long way, and she really wanted to go out for a walk.
But since I was going out alone, it seemed like it didn't matter where I went, so I decided to go to a hot spring with my girlfriends.
She never celebrates holidays and didn't pay attention to the date; unfortunately, it was New Year's Eve.
She was very happy to be able to go out and play with Xiaoyue's family.
Zhen Zhen's new drama has wrapped up filming, and her biggest fans and fan site admins all came to support her.
Zhen Zhen stood facing her fans and apologized to them for her initial avoidance.
"Zhenzhen, there's no need to apologize. Those who understand you will naturally believe you, and we will always support you."
Yes, we will always support you.
Fans echoed this sentiment.
Zhen Zhen was moved, put her hands together, and bowed again to thank everyone.
"DouDou has prepared afternoon tea for everyone. Please share it and go back outside. It's quite cold outside."
"Mmm~ This is really good."
"Yes, I noticed her when she was still an extra. She was hardworking, polite, resilient and tenacious."
After changing her clothes, Zhen Zhen went back to the wrap party to cut the cake, and the whole crew had a simple meal together.
After the last scene was filmed, the director, producer, and screenwriter were all present.
The director said to Zhen Zhen, "It was a pleasant filming experience. I hope we can work together again sometime."
Zhen Zhen was flattered and said, "Thank you, Director. I've learned a lot working with you."
The screenwriter happily expressed, "I will tailor the next script to you. I love your relentless and unyielding character, like a phoenix rising from the ashes or a butterfly emerging from its cocoon."
Zhen Zhen reached out and hugged her. "Thank you, Sister Xingzi. I will continue to improve my acting skills and strive to bring the characters you created to life."
The producer clinked glasses with her, saying, "Congratulations on wrapping up filming."
Zhen Zhen was flattered; she had never received such treatment before.
She thought to herself, "Xiaoyue really is Xiaoyue."
When we were having dinner at her house, Xiaoyue said that as long as she covered her ears and stepped over the edge, things would get better.
Now, she felt it.
Her life has indeed improved.
After finishing her work, Zhen Zhen returned to the villa.
After Da Dou and Qiang Ge brought her back, they went home to be with their families.
At this time in the past, she would feel empty inside and would be unhappy because Wang Ying wanted money.
But this time was different. She hummed a little tune as she took a shower, changed into comfortable, fragrant loungewear, and began packing her luggage for tomorrow's trip.
Xiaoyue finished her night shift today. She won't disturb Xiaoyue's rest; she'll just wait for Xiaoyue to wake up and look for her.
She didn't have much stuff; one box contained clothes, and the other box contained New Year's gifts for everyone.
After packing her luggage, Zhen Zhen opened a bottle of wine and sat alone on the balcony, gazing at the winter beach.
Listening to the wind and waves brought her a moment of peace she had never known before.
Nothing matters anymore, nothing matters anymore.
After finishing lunch, An Xiaoyue went back to her room and fell into a deep sleep.
I worked the night shift last night and didn't sleep at all; I was just too tired.
Fu Shengyang was in charge of packing the family's travel luggage. In order not to disturb her rest, he went to Songtao Garden first to pack his grandfather's luggage.
"How about I bring someone up the mountain? That way you can feel more at ease when you go out to play."
Fu Jinyun watched her grandson bustling around.
He is now not only good at managing Changfeng Group, but also adept at handling family affairs.
She is a business leader outside the home, and a good mother and family member at home.
The men that Xiaoyue trained were indeed exceptionally good.
"The whole family is going out to have fun, how can we leave you alone? Besides, the maids are also on holiday to go home for the New Year, who will have time to take care of you?"
Fu Jinyun was rebuffed and said defiantly, "I also want you and Xiaoyue to have fun with Lucky."
Fu Shengyang: "Leaving you there alone while we go out to play, do you think Xiaoyue, with her personality, would do something like this? Do you think she would have fun?"
The grandfather and granddaughter both knew perfectly well that Xiaoyue wouldn't do such a thing.
Fu Jinyun touched his nose. Well, even he has a day when he's being bossed around by his grandson.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. It's just our family, no servants."
Fu Shengyang held his hand, his tone gentle.
"Grandpa, there's nothing inconvenient about it. With Mom, Dad, Uncle, and Aunt here, even if Xiaoyue and I wanted to take care of Xingyun, we might not be able to. You can go out and have fun without worry. As a family, of course we should stay together wherever we go."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Fu Jinyun touched his grandson's face, his eyes moist. "Sheng Yang, I never thought that I would have such a lively day in my lifetime."
The grandfather and grandson, who depended on each other for survival, both wiped their eyes.
"Grandpa, I never thought about it either."
Fu Shengyang smiled; it was a happy smile.
"Therefore, I love her, cherish her, and respect her. Only when she is by my side do I feel at ease."
Fu Jinyun squeezed his hand, "That's right, Xiaoyue, you are destined for love."
