    Chapter 91 Blooming Nebula

    Xia Xiqing never expected that Zhou Ziheng would return this painting to him on his twenty-sixth birthday.Looking at his name on the nameplate of the picture frame, his eyes became slightly astringent.This painting has disappeared for many years, and he almost has an escape mentality, not looking for it, not thinking about it, as if as long as it doesn’t exist, he has never cared about the so-called family love, and has never been hurt.

    But escape is escape after all. He cannot deny that this painting contains too many complex and unspeakable emotions, and this emotion includes love.Zhou Ziheng understands this, so he will help him get it back and repair his incomplete heart.

    Zhou Ziheng can always find he’s weak spot with great accuracy, and then protect it with his warm palms, regardless of whether he is willing or not, he always works as idealistically.But he has to admit that he hits the red heart every time.

    Seeing the event begin to proceed in an orderly manner, Xia Xiqing’s originally nervous heart relaxed a lot. There were many media from the literary and artistic circles among the guests who reported on the event, and Xia Xiqing also accepted an interview accordingly.

    “How did you embark on the path of artistic creation?”

    This question is not well asked.Xia Xiqing smiled at the female reporter who asked the question, “I’m impressed by it.”

    “So what you’re saying is that your family is also in this profession?”

    “I think the activities of this art museum have little to do with my family.” Xia Xiqing began to doubt the purpose of this female reporter. He tried to escape from it, but found that he was surrounded by another group of media.

    “How did you join the crew of “Stalking”?”

    “There are rumors that you brought money into the production. Can you please explain the relationship between the investors of the “Tracking” crew and you?”

    It turns out it was for the movie.Xia Xiqing should have thought that the huge response after the release of the film’s trailer would sooner or later make some people jealous. It seems that he felt that he could not find a breakthrough from Zhou Ziheng and the director, so he had to start from himself.Although Xia Xiqing is not a person in the entertainment industry, he has been splashed with dirty water so many times and is already very familiar with the routines of this industry.

    After the assistant’s timely response, security personnel came to control the scene.

    “Sorry, please leave the exhibition hall.”

    “We are invited media, how can you just expel us?”

    Xia Xiqing kept a smile on his face and held down the arm of the security guard beside him, “It’s okay.” he showed a professional fake smile to these reporters, “As long as you don’t ask about anything unrelated to this event, of course you won’t be expelled. Anyway, we also have video records here. If there is a discrepancy between your report and the scene, we will of course pursue legal responsibility according to the law.” After that, heAs if joking, he added, “I believe everyone knows how much I spend my money.”

    Seeing the expressions on the reporters’ faces becoming embarrassed, Xia Xiqing smiled innocently and said, “Aren’t we going to do an interview? Should we talk about the dark colors of El Greco first? Or the flowing light in William Turner’s paintings?”

    After dismissing the headless entertainment reporters, Xia Xiqing went to the second floor and poured a glass of champagne down, calming down. He felt that this matter was not that simple. Just now those entertainment reporters kept talking about the investment in “Tracking”. Could it be that competitors saw that the investors had not been disclosed, so they took advantage of it and took advantage of it, claiming that they had invested in the group themselves?

    He wanted to directly bring capital into the group, but he didn’t give him this opportunity.

    He tried to dial Jiang Yin’s number, but the line was busy. Xia Xiqing thought for a while. He originally wanted to call Zhou Ziheng but gave up in the end. He said before that he was filming a perfume commercial, and it shouldn’t be over yet.

    In order to understand the situation, Xia Xiqing checked the Internet. There were no hot searches about “Tracking” investment on the hot search list for the time being. However, when he clicked on the hot search about “Tracking”, there were already some marketing accounts in it that were looking for investors.Zhou Zijing’s previous investment was done in the name of a media subsidiary he acquired, and he signed a confidentiality agreement, so netizens could not see the disclosure of this part of the investment.

    There were similar comments on the Weibo accounts of several marketing accounts. One wave said there was something fishy about this kind of semi-anonymous investment, and the other wave pointed the finger directly at Xia Xiqing himself.

    [@吃 Melon Crowd No. 1: How come Xia Xiqing has melons?Xia Xiqing is truly a “treasure boy”.]

    [@Waiting for You333: I think this kind of thing is all related to bringing money into the group. Xia Xiqing, who studied painting, can now act. What about those actors who have a professional background but have no roles to act in? It’s really ironic.]

    Such comments abound, and the purpose of rhythm is obvious.But what surprised Xia Xiqing was that this time the film crew’s response was astonishingly fast. He just refreshed the homepage and saw the clarification issued by the film’s official Weibo.

    [@ Film Tracking Official Weibo: The recent speculations on the Internet about the investment in “Tracking” are all untrue. The following is the investment agreement.We will definitely investigate those who spread rumors.]

    The important parts of this investment agreement have been coded, but the amount of 85 million and the full name of the investor Xingye Media have been retained.In addition to this one, it also includes investment agreements from the director himself and producer Jiang Yin.

    The purpose of disclosing the investors is to stop rumors claiming “black water investment,” but to be honest, it does not prove Xia Xiqing’s innocence.He knows very well that these marketing accounts can completely link their names to any of these investors. Whether it is Xing Ye who accounts for the majority, Zhou Zijing behind it, the director, or even Jiang Yin, they can all become he’s financial backers.This is the trickiest thing.

    Jiang Yin’s call suddenly came in, and Xia Xiqing quickly answered it. The other person sounded calm, but seemed to be looking for a solution.

    “Xi Qing, you should have been harassed by reporters over there.”

    “Yeah. A group of people just came and I drove them away. Have you found out who stabbed them in the back?”

    Jiang Yin spoke angrily, “After tracking the postponement of the release, I bumped into a big-budget movie with two male protagonists, but it couldn’t catch up with the popularity, so I wanted to ruin the reputation before it was released so that people wouldn’t watch it.”

    Just know.Xia Xiqing held her cell phone and stood in front of a window in the corner of the second floor, meditating.

    There was no other way, even though Xia Xiqing had never wanted to do this.

    “How about this, Sister Yin, you should have some marketing accounts under your control? Pretend to find out my origins. I will give you the information and you won’t be able to find out.”

    I only celebrate my birthday once a year, and I have to reveal my family background for the movie.The self-destructive player is something that I will never be able to get rid of for the rest of my life.

    Three hours later, a video was wildly forwarded on the Internet. It was the funeral of Xi Hewei, a leading figure in domestic sculpture. The person standing at the front carrying Mr. Xi’s coffin was none other than Xia Xiqing, a popular painter who is in the spotlight every day.

    [@Gossip: Some netizens revealed the funeral of Mr. Xi, the master of sculpture. Isn’t the little brother who carried the coffin Xia Xiqing?In addition, someone also found Media Asia International’s shareholding on the Internet (the authenticity needs to be verified). Media Asia’s boss is Xia Yunkai. If you think about Xia Xiqing’s name again, damn, you don’t dare to write a wealth novel like this…]

    [@The person I like is a little painter: My ID name should be changed [Kneel down] Happy birthday Xi Qing!]

    [@小仙女 passing by: So Xia Xiqing is the Crown Prince of Media Asia?His mother’s family is the descendant of a leading artist. Damn it, why doesn’t he like women?]

    [@12345 Go up the mountain to fight tigers: …I said before that those who support me are all fools.Media Asia, it’s too late to ask for help.]

    [@SSS warning: I now suspect that Xia Xiqing really brought capital into the group, hahaha, brought his own capital.]

    [@My son is the cutest: No, Media Asia did not invest in this movie. The largest investor is Xingye. Go and find out who Xingye was acquired by the company the year before last. They will come back to thank me.]

    [@ The one I push is your tower replied @ My son is the cutest: Damn, I just checked, it’s Jing Ming!Isn’t Jingming’s major shareholder his brother?The person I rely on to really bring in money is not the second male lead, but the first male lead.]

    [@ My son is the cutest replied @ The one who pushed is your tower: The male one cannot be said, and his background is not something you can discuss, so just shut up and shut up.]

    [@自Study Girl Cute: Happy birthday to Xi Qing!Damn it, what kind of fairy CP am I really interested in??[PS vaguely smells the smell of self-destruction…]

    [@夏Xiqing1221Happy birthday: Wait for me if you blow yourself up!Xi Qing: If you spread rumors again, I will blow it up!]

    Now the people’s focus is on Xia Xiqing’s net worth. All kinds of jokes are flying all over the place. A lot of helpless sisters even started shouting about Xia Xiqing’s husband on Weibo, almost occupying his Weibo, making Xia Xiqing dumbfounded.

    When refreshing again, Xia Xiqing saw a Weibo post from Zhou Ziheng.

    [@actorzhouziheng: For you.]

    This Weibo has two pictures, each holding a bottle of perfume.The bottles have a very simple prismatic design. The perfume liquid in the first bottle is deep black, mixed with a little blue quicksand, which makes people think of the vast universe and the twinkling but tiny stardust in it at first glance.

    The liquid in the other bottle is transparent and also contains quicksand, but it is a rich crimson color. The design inside the bottle is very special. The quicksand is fixed in the center of the bottle, and a small eternal red rose is hidden inside.

    Xia Xiqing almost immediately recognized that the hand holding the perfume bottle belonged to Zhou Ziheng. Not only was he familiar with it, but also the small rose tattoo on the inside of the ring finger revealed behind the translucent bottle.

    In the repost is the official blog of the high-end luxury brand for this collaboration.

    [These two perfumes will be sold globally as our Christmas limited editions, and @actorzhouziheng participated in the entire process of fragrance creation and concept design.The main fragrance of rose mixed with pink pepper, supplemented by the pure desire of white musk, presents the ultimate romance of starry sky and roses.The name of the perfume will be announced at 23:59 tonight.]

    This wave of publicity has been done really hard.

    While I was complaining about the advertising ambassador, I received the other person’s WeChat message.

    [Renaissance: Is it over?I’ll wait for you at your house.]

    Xia Xiqing actually didn’t have much expectations for the so-called birthday surprise, because the previous painting was of great significance to him.But after seeing the news about Zhou Ziheng, he couldn’t help but feel a desire.I want to go back early, want to see him, and want to celebrate the day of my birth with him.

    There is nothing to celebrate when he comes to this world. What is worth celebrating is that he. Fortunately, he came to this world and did not miss Zhou Ziheng.

    When leaving the art museum, many fans saw he was about to leave, and finally couldn’t help calling his name in a low voice. Xia Xiqing arranged his coat and walked out, saying goodbye to them with a smile.

    “Happy birthday Xi Qing.”

    “Happy birthday!” one of the girls asked, holding a flower in her hand, “Brother Xi Qing, why did you buy pink roses?”

    Xia Xiqing turned around to face them, took two steps backwards, smiled softly, “Pink roses are a girl’s best accessory.”

    After getting out of the elevator in the apartment, Xia Xiqing walked straight to the door of his house.But the moment he opened the door, he couldn’t help but feel a little confused. It was pitch dark inside with not a single light left.

    This is not like Zhou Ziheng’s style. If he is at home, he will definitely leave the entrance light for himself, or simply turn on every light.

    Is it possible that you haven’t replied yet?

    Although he now dares to recall the past, his fear of the dark has almost become a physiological reaction.Xia Xiqing stretched out his hand, fumbled for the light switch in the living room at the door, and pressed it with a snap.

    Strange, the touch of this switch is different from before…

    There was no time to check carefully, no time to even realize that the light in the living room was not turned on at all, Xia Xiqing just froze on the spot.

    The empty cold darkness in the living room was suddenly rubbed into countless tiny dazzling stardust, floating in the vast universe.It was so quiet at this moment, as quiet as a vacuum, but he could hear his own heartbeat, beating at an ever-accelerating frequency, reaching his eardrums, like a lonely radio frequency emitted in the quiet universe.

    Taking a step closer, Xia Xiqing tried to call out his name, like a teleportation from light years away.

    “Ziheng?”

    The moment he opened his mouth, an extremely bright point of light suddenly erupted from the center of the quiet sea of stars in front of him, as if signaling the arrival of a young star. The colorful stellar wind in the darkness distorted and compressed everything. The beautiful floating light points in the field of vision were annihilated and reborn, gradually gathering into a red nebula, slowly unfolding.

    Like a blooming rose.

    He cannot describe what he sees in front of him. This great shock seems to come from the primitive awe and longing of small humans for the boundless starry sky.

    Zhou Ziheng finally appeared on the other side of the Rose Nebula, with a gentle and calm smile on his face and a small controller in his hand.

    “Someone once asked me, there are so many beautiful things in this world. If you were asked to choose one to give to the most precious person, what would you choose?” He showed a slightly embarrassed look, “Before I met you, I felt that the most macroscopic beauty in the world is the universe. In essence, there is no difference between us and these stardust. We are all children of stars and children of the universe.”

    he lowered his head and smiled, “But after meeting you, I discovered that a rose stained with soil is also beautiful. The microscopic beauty is also shocking.”

    he’s gentle gaze traveled through the entire nebula and reached Xia Xiqing’s starry eyes.

    “When I finally waited for this day, I started to struggle, because whether it is the universe or the rose, I want to give it to you. So,” he stretched out his hand, “please allow me to introduce to you, this is NGC 2237 nebula. Or we can call her, the Rose Nebula.” Zhou Ziheng stepped on the stardust, passed through the magnificent star cluster, walked to Xia Xiqing, and hugged him.

    “It took me half a month to photograph it.” Zhou Ziheng took out a photo and put it on Xia Xiqing’s hand. “Then I asked Zhixu to model it together and make a hologram, and that’s what you see now.” He smiled and kissed Xia Xiqing’s forehead, his voice gentler than the universe.

    “Happy birthday. Thank you for coming to me.”

    Xia Xiqing finally understood why Zhou Ziheng was hiding on the rooftop with a lot of astronomical photography equipment.But what he didn’t expect was that he could actually bring the nebula hundreds of millions of light years away in front of him, so that he could feel everything solemn and romantic with his own eyes.

    he finally understood what the two perfumes designed by Zhou Ziheng personally represented.The combination of black quicksand and everlasting roses is all there is to see.

    He held the photo and raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ziheng. Behind him was a magnificent crimson nebula.

    I want to speak, I want to express, but all the signals that he can send out have been plundered and mixed into another heartbeat just a few feet away.

    This most beautiful rose in the world is made of stardust and nourished by the Milky Way.It will never wither, and will always bloom in the quiet universe.

    “This is what I want to give you, a romance on a cosmic level.”
