Chapter 1983 Waiting for You for Half an Hour

Hour 1

Jing Xiaocha looked at Wen Jin sitting in the driver's seat and suddenly felt troubled.

This was her first real meeting with Wen Jin after returning to China. Wen Jin drove her back again and drove her all the way back in person.

Logically speaking, Jing Xiaocha should invite Wen Jin up for a cup of tea.

But with their current relationship, if she invites him to drink tea, will it make him have bad thoughts and think that she...

"Any thing else?"

Wen Jin looked at the environment of the apartment outside the car window. After waiting for two minutes, he didn't hear Jing Xiaocha get off the car. When he turned around, he saw her looking at him with a troubled face.

A flash of astonishment flashed in his dark jade eyes.

Jing Xiaocha immediately shook his head, "No, it's okay. Brother Wen, thank you for sending me home."

After saying that, she immediately turned around, opened the door and got out of the car.

Wen Jin didn't answer, watching Jing Xiaocha get out of the car, closing the car door and waving to him, then turned and walked into the apartment.

He started the engine and drove away.

When Jing Xiaocha returned home, he took a nap first. After getting up, he poured himself a glass of water, sat on the sofa with his notebook in his arms, turned on the phone, drank water, and woke up.

The mobile phone on the coffee table vibrated. Jing Xiaocha put down his notebook and picked up the phone to answer the call.

"Xiaocha, it's me."

Jin Zheyu's voice came over the phone.

Jing Xiaocha leaned into the sofa and said, "I'm working on a manuscript, what can I do?"

"I heard from my dad that you rejected Xingxia Film and Television's attempt to buy the film and television adaptation rights of your novel?"

The reason why Jing Xiaocha had just woken up from a nap was that his brain reaction was a little slow, and he didn't understand what Jin Zheyu said for a while, "Your dad?"

"Yes, I just came home and listened to what my dad said. He said that Li Minxu replied to him, saying that you refused to adapt your novel into a TV series. Xiaocha, this is a rare opportunity..."

"Wait a moment."

Jing Xiaocha raised her hand and stroked her forehead, interrupting Jin Zheyu's anxious persuasion on the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong?"

Jin Zheyu asked concernedly on the other end of the phone.

Jing Xiaocha recalled the phone call that Editor Li received from Yipinxuan at noon, and what he said on the phone.

Of course she knew that Xingxia Film and Television was owned by Jin Zheyu's family. Jin Zheyu had told her before that he could make the novel she wrote into a TV series.

But Jing Xiaocha refused.

She and Jin Zheyu are just ordinary friends, and she doesn't want Jin Zheyu to do anything for her, let alone let him fund a TV series for her novel.

"How do you know about this? Could it be that you and your father recommended it?"

"Xiaocha, I just recommended your novel and nothing else. There is absolutely no need for you to reject it for this reason."

"I don't want to make it into a TV series. Most of the current novels made into TV series are changed beyond recognition. I don't want to change the story I wrote into a mess."

Jing Xiaocha was silent for a moment, looking for a relatively suitable reason.

She didn't want to tell Jin Zheyu that his father's request was not only to change her novel beyond recognition, but also to add some plots that she couldn't accept.

Even if he said it, Jin Zheyu's answer would definitely be the same as Editor Li's. He would find various reasons and excuses. If a newcomer has no influence, he must have something to win the audience's attention...

"Why are the changes so messy? Xiaocha, even if it is changed to a TV series, you will still be the screenwriter. I can completely write it according to your ideas and ideas, and make it as consistent as possible with the original work."

"Let's talk about this later. Editor Li asked me to hand in the remaining manuscripts within half a month. I'm really busy now and have no time to think about other things."

"Okay then, you write the manuscript first."

After hanging up the phone, Jing Xiaocha hugged the notebook again. First, he opened the webpage and read the novel serialized on the website. After rechecking the manuscripts in the draft box for typos, he set a time limit for a week.

Then I opened the document and started working on it.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone in from the floor-to-ceiling window and hit her black hair, as if it had been coated with a light sheen.

With her slender white index finger jumping on the keyboard, her delicate eyebrows and focused expression, Jing Xiaocha is more calm and graceful than usual.

In more than a year, she has transformed a lot.

The young girl who used to be stubborn and not calm enough has lost her youthfulness and become more gentle.

Just like Wen Ran teased her, there is no lack of growth in the places where flesh should be gained. Today, she is no longer as green as a minor, but a truly playful and beautiful woman in the prime of her youth.

After writing intently for an hour, Jing Xiaocha put down his notebook and raised his hands to press his sore neck.

He stood up and walked around the living room twice, stretching his muscles and bones, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Then continue.

The days of writing are boring and lonely.

For dinner, Jing Xiaocha just ordered a takeaway. After eating and taking a shower, he sat on the bed with his notebook in his hand and worked on the manuscript.

When the phone rang again, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number. Jing Xiaocha's eyes flashed with confusion. He stared at the number for a few seconds before pressing the answer button with delicate fingers.

"Jing Xiaocha, I am Zheyu's sister. Come out and I have something to talk to you about."

Jing Xiaocha frowned slightly, Jin Fengjiao was looking for her?

"I'm sorry, Miss Jin, I'm going to bed now. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

"Don't lie to me. Why are you sleeping so early? Don't you want to adapt your novel into a TV series? Don't you want to be a screenwriter or be successful?"

Jin Fengjiao asked several questions on the phone, with disdain in her tone.

Before Jing Xiaocha could refuse, Jin Fengjiao gave another address, "...I'll wait for you here. Come over within half an hour. I know you live very close to here."

It seems that I must see her tonight.

Jing Xiaocha said calmly, "I really don't have the habit of going out at night. If Miss Jin has anything to say, why not say it on the phone."

She had been working on the manuscript for several hours, and now she was very sleepy and tired. She didn't want to go out anymore. She just wanted to practice yoga for a while and then go to bed.

"Anyway, I'm waiting for you here."

Asking Jin Fengjiao, a rich lady, to wait for a wild girl like Jing Xiaocha is already giving her a lot of face.

After saying that, Jin Fengjiao hung up the phone.

Jing Xiaocha looked at the hung up call and rolled her eyes unhappily, but thought that Jin Fengjiao was Jin Zheyu's sister. Jin Zheyu had helped her many times when she was abroad, and she did owe Jin Zheyu.

Although he was reluctant to see her, he still looked at Jin Zheyu's face, got out of bed, changed clothes, and went to see Jin Fengjiao.

The place Jin Fengjiao mentioned was not very far from where Jing Xiaocha lived, only about ten minutes' walk away.

Only twenty minutes passed between the time Jing Xiaocha answered the phone and rushed to the coffee shop.

As soon as he entered the coffee shop, he saw Jin Fengjiao sitting by the window.
