Volume 3 Comprehensive Film and Television Chapter 119 Zhong Xiaoqin's Time Magic
In the pouring rain, a black business car sped towards Zhong Xiaoqin's mother's house. Yuan Xudong hung up the phone and stepped on the accelerator to continue accelerating. In order to complete the task before twelve o'clock, he called Gu Jia. On the one hand, he asked where Zhong Xiaoqin's mother lived, and on the other hand, he asked her to notify Zhong's mother to prepare celery dumplings in advance. Every second counts!
By the time he arrived at Zhong Xiaoqin's mother's house, it was already 11:04 p.m., and it took him 52 minutes on the road. If he wanted to get back before 12 o'clock, he would have to spend at most four minutes at Zhong Xiaoqin's mother's house. Thinking of this, he quickly rang the doorbell, and when Zhong's mother opened the door from the inside, Yuan Xudong briefly explained:
"Aunt, I'm Yuan Xudong, Xiaoqin's friend. Today is her 30th birthday, and she wants to eat the celery dumplings you made. I wonder if Gu Jia has called you?"
" You are Yuan Xudong. Gu Jia told me that Xiaoqin is so willful. It's raining so hard outside, how could she let you drive over here to beg for dumplings? I couldn't get through to her on the phone. When she comes back tomorrow, I will definitely give her a good scolding!"
After that, she glanced at the soaked Yuan Xudong and apologized:
"Mr. Yuan, I'm so sorry to ask you to drive here so late. Come in and sit for a while, eat two dumplings, and then go back after the rain stops!"
"No need, auntie!"
Yuan Xudong looked at his watch. There were still two minutes left. He looked at Mother Zhong and explained:
"I promised Xiaoqin that I would rush back before twelve o'clock. Time is running out. Can you give me the dumplings first? I'm sorry to disturb you and uncle's rest so late. I will come back tomorrow to apologize to the two elders. This matter is really important to me. Please!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong's insistence, Mother Zhong looked at Father Zhong in the room and shouted:
"Old man, hurry up and bring the dumplings over. Xiaoqin's friends are coming!"
“Here it comes, here it comes!”
After a while, Mr. Zhong came behind Mrs. Zhong with a thermos bucket and handed the dumplings to her. He looked at Yuan Xudong and said,
"Hello, I'm Xiaoqin's father. Gu Jia has told us that you don't have to rush. Don't worry about that little girl. When she comes back tomorrow, I will definitely teach her a lesson. It's so dangerous to drive on the road at night in such heavy rain!"
"It's okay. Thank you for your concern, uncle. Xiaoqin was joking with me. I was stubborn and insisted on rushing here overnight. I'm sorry to disturb you and aunt so late. I will come to visit you tomorrow. I'm going back now. I'm really sorry!"
Taking the thermos bucket from Mother Zhong, Yuan Xudong bowed and apologized before rushing out. Seeing how anxious he was, Mother Zhong couldn't help but admonish him:
"Mr. Yuan, drive slower when you get back, and remember to ask Xiaoqin to call us back!"
"Got it, Auntie!"
After Yuan Xudong rushed into the car and drove away, Mother Zhong looked at Father Zhong and instructed:
"Call Chen Yu, I'm still a little worried!"
"Why are you worried? Didn't Gu Jia tell you? Xiaoqin played a game with them. If Mr. Yuan lost, he would be asked to come over and ask for dumplings. Don't young people like to play like this? What's it called? Truth or Dare?"
After rolling her eyes at Mr. Zhong, Mrs. Zhong closed the door and said in disbelief:
"A man drove two hours in the night in such heavy rain for your daughter, just to eat a bowl of celery dumplings I made. Aren't you worried at all?"
"What is there to worry about? I know my daughter well. Is she capable of cheating?"
"You old fool, how can you talk about your own daughter like that? Call Chen Yu quickly, I need to get the truth!"
"I called, but no one answered. Just don't worry about it. It's because you like to meddle in other people's business that Chen Yu doesn't want you to go over and take care of Xiaoqin!"
"Okay, I get it. Go to bed quickly. I'm waiting for Xiaoqin's call!"
"I can't sleep, so I'll wait with you. My daughter's birthday is my mother's suffering day. Honey, thank you for your hard work!"
"Don't try to trick me. You just want some pocket money, right? I'm telling you, no way. I want to save it for my future grandchildren!"
"I'm going to bed, good night!"
"roll!"
…
After driving past a cake shop, Yuan Xudong hesitated for a moment, then rushed in and bought a box of birthday cake. After he returned to the car with the birthday cake, he continued to accelerate towards his rental house. As long as he drove faster, he could still get back before twelve o'clock. The mission worth tens of billions was worth his hard driving.
In Yuan Xudong's rental house, time passed by minute by minute. When the clock on the wall passed twelve o'clock in the morning, Yuan Xudong did not come back as he said. Zhong Xiaoqin was a little disappointed, but also felt it was natural.
When the clock passed one in the morning, she began to get restless. Looking at the drizzle outside, she decided to wait a little longer. If Yuan Xudong didn't come back, she would go out and find a phone to call Yuan Xudong. Today had been bad enough, and she didn't want anything bad to happen again.
Just as Zhong Xiaoqin was praying in secret, the dejected Yuan Xudong opened the door and walked in. Hearing the sound of the door opening, Zhong Xiaoqin hurried over and saw Yuan Xudong wilting like an eggplant hit by frost, holding a thermos cup and a half-deflated birthday cake gift box in his hands. She was slightly stunned, then walked over to him and said with concern:
"Crow Spirit, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, these are the celery dumplings you requested, I hope you like them!"
Yuan Xudong shook his head and forced a smile. He put the thermos bucket on the table and opened it. The dumplings inside were still hot. After taking a look at the birthday cake in Yuan Xudong's hand, Zhong Xiaoqin asked knowingly:
"Yuan Xudong, is this the birthday cake you bought for me?"
Looking at the birthday cake that was half deflated, Yuan Xudong said with an annoyed look:
"I originally planned to rush back before twelve o'clock, just in time to celebrate your birthday, but I didn't expect an accident on the way, and most of the cake was broken. Fortunately, the celery dumplings were fine, but I was more than an hour late. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Your 30th birthday has passed, and it's too late to say anything now. All I can say is that man proposes, God disposes!"
"Yuan Xudong, what happened to you?"
Zhong Xiaoqin felt around Yuan Xudong's body . Apart from his soaked clothes, everything else was fine. She breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily:
"I was just saying it casually. Who told you to go out in such heavy rain to look for dumplings?"
After saying that, she couldn't help but glance at the thermos bucket on the table, then said belatedly:
"This thermos looks familiar. Where did you buy it?"
"This is the thermos your mother gave me. I didn't buy it."
After taking a look at Zhong Xiaoqin, Yuan Xudong put the birthday cake on the table. Thinking of Zhong's mother's instructions, he handed his cell phone to Zhong Xiaoqin and said:
"By the way, your mother couldn't get through to you on the phone , so she asked you to call her back!"
"You went to my mother's house?"
Taking Yuan Xudong's phone, Zhong Xiaoqin opened her eyes slightly and said in disbelief:
"Yuan Xudong, are you crazy? It was raining so hard, and you ran back and forth in such a short time. Are you trying to save your life?"
"Don't you want to eat the celery dumplings your mother made?"
Giving Zhong Xiaoqin a blank look, Yuan Xudong waved his hands in frustration and said:
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with you. I'm going to take a shower. You can eat the dumplings while they're hot. This bowl of dumplings is not cheap. I just want to find a place to cry now!"
Without waiting for Zhong Xiaoqin's response, Yuan Xudong ran into the bedroom and got some clean clothes, then went into the bathroom to wash. Zhong Xiaoqin used his cell phone to call her mother, saying that her phone was broken and she couldn't get through, and that she would go back for lunch tomorrow, etc. Without waiting for her mother to continue asking questions, she made a few prevarications and hung up the phone, fearing that if she said too much, she would be exposed and make the two old people worry.
Placing the cell phone in the middle of the table, Zhong Xiaoqin sat at the table and started eating the celery dumplings her mother had made. While eating, her eyes turned red and tears flowed down her eyes into the hot soup, and she finally drank it all up without leaving a drop.
After finishing the dumplings and putting down the thermos in her hand, Zhong Xiaoqin glanced at the birthday cake on the table. After hesitating for a while, she took out the half-broken birthday cake, put a candle on it and lit it, then turned off the crystal chandelier in the room, celebrated her birthday by herself, and made a wish with her eyes closed:
“I hope every day from now on will be better than today!”
Yuan Xudong walked out of the bathroom and happened to see Zhong Xiaoqin making a wish with her eyes closed under the candlelight. Seeing her smiling face, his mood also improved a lot. He no longer entangled in the failed task. If I succeed, I am lucky. If I lose, I am doomed. I will fight for what is inevitable and let nature take its course. He silently recited his favorite motto in his heart. He walked to Zhong Xiaoqin and blessed her:
"Xiaoqin, even though it's already past twelve o'clock, I still want to wish you a happy birthday. I wish you a happy day every day in the future!"
Opening her eyes, Zhong Xiaoqin looked at Yuan Xudong and thanked him sincerely:
"Yuan Xudong, thank you, thank you for the celery dumplings and birthday cake you prepared for me. This is the best birthday gift I have received today. Before you blow out the candles, I allow you to make a wish. As long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you!"
After taking a look at Zhong Xiaoqin who looked serious, Yuan Xudong deliberately smiled evilly:
"Can I really wish for anything?"
After that, he deliberately glanced at Zhong Xiaoqin's chest and thighs, and only stopped when Zhong Xiaoqin glared at him with a blushing face. He clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and made a wish:
"I hope time can go back, so I can give the celery dumplings to the most beautiful Miss Zhong Xiaoqin before twelve o'clock. I also hope that every day of Miss Zhong Xiaoqin's future will be better than today. If I make Miss Zhong Xiaoqin angry, she can forgive me once and stop calling me the nickname of Crow Spirit. This name is really ugly. I also want..."
"Why do you have so many wishes?"
After giving Yuan Xudong a blank look, Zhong Xiaoqin quickly blew out the candle and said:
"You are so greedy. I can only grant you one wish!"
Opening his eyes, Yuan Xudong looked at Zhong Xiaoqin in the darkness and said with a smile:
"Ms. Zhong Xiaoqin, what wish can you fulfill for me?"
Giving Yuan Xudong a blank look, Zhong Xiaoqin turned on the crystal chandelier in the room, and then ran to the clock hanging on the wall. She stood on tiptoe to take down the clock and fiddled with it for a while, then stood on tiptoe again to hang it up again, and then turned to look at the stunned Yuan Xudong and smiled:
"Yuan Xudong, it's 11:45 now, and there are still 15 minutes until 12 o'clock. I will help you fulfill your wish!"

Seeing Yuan Xudong's dazed expression, Zhong Xiaoqin walked up to him, bent down slightly, waved her right hand in front of his eyes and said:
"Yuan Xudong, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing Zhong Xiaoqin's voice, Yuan Xudong came back to his senses. The mission worth tens of billions was recovered. His excitement can be imagined. Looking at Zhong Xiaoqin in front of him, with a pair of white jade-like long legs and the alluring scenery inside the collar, he stood up and hugged Zhong Xiaoqin and kissed her twice, and said excitedly:
"Xiaoqin, from today on, you are my goddess of time!"
