CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 61: LONGSTANDING AFFECTION (1)

The late autumn morning was shrouded in a thin layer of fog, the air slightly chilly, and the clouds concealed the sunlight, leaving no gaps, making the sky a bit darker.

At six in the morning, after Zhou Huaiyi worked non-stop in front of the computer for five hours, the work was finally completed... one-third of it.

Feeling accomplished, she hit the enter key. Exhausted, Zhou Huaiyi couldn’t get up, lowered her head, and fell asleep on the keyboard.

When she woke up again, it was almost noon. Zhou Huaiyi rubbed her sleepy eyes and after a long while, realized that her door was being knocked.

"Knock knock knock," three knocks every few seconds.

Zhou Huaiyi sprang up from the chair and quickly walked over to open the door.

Xiang Qichen had been knocking at the door for almost five minutes. Seeing she still hadn’t come to open it, he thought she was sleeping deeply and was about to return to his room to get his phone to call her.

Just as he turned around, the door opened.

That handsome face was somewhat pale, with bags under his eyes and faint dark circles, and on the left cheek, there was a red grid-like imprint.

Xiang Qichen frowned, reached out, pinched her chin, and looked left and right: "What happened to your face?"

Zhou Huaiyi yawned half-open-eyed, reached up to touch it, and replied lazily, "Oh, keyboard imprint."

Xiang Qichen let go: "Really didn’t sleep all night?"

"I slept just this morning..." Zhou Huaiyi’s eyes were red and she kept yawning, turning back to lean on the bed, "A cup of coffee in the afternoon will be fine..."

Xiang Qichen closed the door, came in and took a look at her without a word, then walked to the computer to review what she had accomplished overnight, and said: "Finished?"

With her eyes closed, Zhou Huaiyi mumbled: "Not yet, I only edited the film, the post-production sound isn’t done."

Xiang Qichen: "Are you still planning to stay up all night?"

Zhou Huaiyi opened her eyes, took a moment to gather her energy, and got dressed: "If there’s no filming tomorrow morning..."

Hearing this, Xiang Qichen felt slightly guilty.

It seemed like everything was being piled on her now.

Filming, doing assignments.

He furrowed his brows, sat down at the computer: "How do you do it?"

Zhou Huaiyi casually: "Huh?"

"This software..." He pointed to the post-production software on the screen, "How do you use it."

Realizing what he meant, Zhou Huaiyi waved it off casually with a smile: "I’ll handle it myself, the software’s all in professional foreign languages, very complicated."

Xiang Qichen raised an eyebrow, dissatisfied.

Don’t trust him?

"Explain it."

"..."

Zhou Huaiyi scratched her head, pulled on her pants, got out of bed, walked over to him, knowing he wanted to help her, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed: "How about you help me select some material? This software is quite difficult to use, and it takes a while to figure it out. You can help me pick some material from the sound effect library, it’ll save me a lot of time."

Xiang Qichen hesitated for a moment: "Okay."

,

After lunch, Yang Li came to pick him up for the crew, and the door was half open. He pushed it open and saw Zhou Huaiyi sitting openly at Xiang Qichen’s computer, looking stunned, but was already not surprised.

He smiled, walked over, and patted her shoulder: "When did you get here?"

Xiang Qichen was focused on the sound material in the computer, not moving his head: "Last night."

Yang Li was surprised, so impatient, huh...

Just at that moment, Zhou Huaiyi came out of the bathroom, turned her head to see Yang Li and paused: "Hey, you’re here?"

Yang Li turned back: "Ah, it’s about time."

Zhou Huaiyi shook her wet hands, put on a jacket: "Then let’s go, I’m ready."

"Where’s Zhou Huaiyi?" Yang Li pointed to Xiang Qichen at the computer.

"Oh, there’s not much filming today, just follow me," Zhou Huaiyi said casually.

Yang Li’s eyes widened in surprise and his imagination ran wild.

... Could it be that last night was intense?
