Extra 1: Happy opening

    Chi Nuan’s exhibition and her brave speech suddenly went viral on all major platforms on the Internet.

    Not to mention, the direction of public opinion has indeed had a subversive reversal due to her move. In addition to forwarding it from friends, she also received support from high-level officials in other fields, and there was another wave of votes for the “Gay Marriage Law.”

    Although the vote still ended in failure, at least the number of votes in favor was higher than the cumulative number of votes in every previous vote, which is a big step forward for everyone.

    Most people in the circle finally no longer need to be afraid of standing in the sun because of the same gender.

    Apart from the thousands of people who benefited this time, the biggest beneficiary was probably Lin Zi.She returned to the show and shocked the world, regained the covers of major magazines, and dazzled her with brand endorsements one after another.

    In addition, the most important thing is that my girlfriend can be by my side at almost every event.Whenever the staff asked about her, she proudly introduced her to them: “This is my girlfriend, Zhu Shutong.”

    Four months after the exhibition ended, on Chi Nuan’s 26th birthday, Boss Song generously gave her a 300-square-meter shop to use as her studio.

    At first glance, the location, scenery and light are all excellent.

    As for how Song Shixue discovered it, it was all thanks to Chen Zhou’s mouth like a big colander.

    Chen Zhou, who was standing at the exhibition at the time, was completely speechless after hearing Chi Nuan’s bold speech.

    No wonder Song Shixue agreed so readily when the company contacted her, and even asked Chi Nuan to come and shoot, saying she would keep it a secret for her.OK, OK, now it all makes sense!

    Is co-writing with him part of the play between young lovers?!

    Chi Nuan is unkind to me, don’t blame me for being unjust to her!

    Without saying a word, Chen Zhou took out his cell phone and complained to Song Shixue.

    “Teacher Song, do you know about the news that your family, Chi Nuan, resigned from Huashang?”

    “She said she was going to open a studio and work alone. How risky is it to start a business alone now? How about you help me persuade her to come back?”

    These two pieces of news were seen after Song Shixue and Chi Nuan returned home and had a sweet ending.She replied calmly: “Chi Nuan didn’t tell me about her resignation, but if she really wants to open a studio, then I will naturally help her.”

    “As for whether she returns to Huashang or not, that is her own decision, and I have no right to interfere.”

    She directly spoke with a few domineering sentences, which made Chen Zhou speechless.

    It’s so cruel to singles!

    “Xingxing? Why didn’t you tell me about your resignation?” Song Shixue closed her phone and looked down at the red-cheeked puppy nestled in her arms. She even teased one of the red beans dishonestly with her hands.

    Chi Nuan, who had not yet recovered from the peak, felt the sudden stimulation, and his body couldn’t help but tremble, and his tone became delicate: “Forgive me… I, I originally wanted to… tell you this after I have some free time.”

    “Want to open a studio?” She scratched Chi Nuan’s chin.

    “Well…”

    “Well, leave the stars to me, okay?”

    “What do you mean-” Song Shixue pressed Chi Nuan’s fragrant lips, “Well…”

    “Nothing.” Her fingertips slid down. “Stars, let’s do it again.”

    Halfway through the studio decoration process, Chi Nuan and Song Shixue found time to return to Chengdu.

    The two walked to Cheng Xue’s grave.

    “Mom, I’m here to see you. Please don’t blame me for not coming for so long.” A few bunches of dry white roses were scattered beside the tomb. “Xingxing, do you come here often?”

    “No, I just come over to visit my aunt during the holidays.” Chi Nuan would go to Cheng Xue no matter the holidays or whenever she had free time. She would come to Cheng Xue’s grave and give her a bouquet of white roses before chatting with her.Sometimes I would go back to the demolished house. One time I came back and unexpectedly bumped into Concubine Rong’s son. I followed him to visit Concubine Rong. “In a while, let’s go see Concubine Rong too.”

    “Well…”

    Song Shixue learned about the death of Rong Nuan a few days before the exhibition. She called Rong Nuan and planned to bring her to Hangzhou for two days to see the solo exhibition and take this opportunity to re-introduce Chi Nuan’s new identity.

    In the end, a wave of attempts to go out turned out to be empty.

    The bad premonition kept spreading. Chi Nuan couldn’t bear it but still told Song Shi the news that Xuerong had passed away three years ago.

    The car drove all the way to the more remote edge of the city. Chi Nuan finally parked the car on a hillside covered with weeds. The two of them pushed aside the deep grass on both sides along a path. What came into view were two stone tablets that had been damaged by wind and rain, standing upright there.

    The one on the far left is engraved with the tomb of Zhang Guojun, the father of Zhang Yue.

    The one on the far right is engraved with the tomb of Zhang Yue’s mother: Rong Suling.

    “I’m not lying to you, Miss Rong. I told you that I would bring Teacher Song to see you.” Chi Nuan half-crouched and turned to look at Song Shixue, “Hey! I forgot to buy some scented wax paper.”

    She remembered that the last time she came here with Concubine Rong’s son, they were all burned.

    “It’s okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.” Song Shixue also squatted down.

    “Ms. Rong, Uncle Zhang, I haven’t had the chance to visit you all these years because of some things.” She wrinkled her nose as she spoke fluent Chengdu dialect, “Ms. Rong, I also said that I would come back to eat some of the chili sauce and dried radish you made when I have time! It’s good now, I won’t be able to eat them in this life.”

    “Chi Nuan is actually not my friend, she is actually my girlfriend.” Song Shixue’s palm covered the back of Chi Nuan’s hand. “You may feel strange, thinking, why two girls are together? But we really love each other, and you can definitely see it in the sky. The two of us even held an exhibition together some time ago! Don’t worry, there are many people online blessing us!”

    After finishing speaking, a gust of wind blew through the weeds half a person’s height, gently brushing their faces.

    This gust of wind was like a blessing given to them by the two elders.

    ——Children, as long as you are happy.

    Another month has passed and the studio decoration has been completed.The overall style is clean and comfortable, but Chi Nuan retains her care in some details.

    For example, the most conspicuous wall after entering was hung with a photo frame that had been “thrown away” by Chi Nuan. In the center of the lanyard filled with photo paper was a small daisy pendant that belonged to both of them.

    Chi Nuan once asked Song Shixue where she put the pendant he gave her.She said that she kept it under her pillow and slept with her every night.

    When she was in Milan, she thought that Song Shixue would definitely be placed in an important place and would not treat him badly.

    After getting the answer, she thought that Song Shixue really put it in an important place and did not treat it badly.

    All the care and attention in the studio show strong love.Those who know it will think it is a photography studio, and those who don’t know it will think it is some kind of check-in show affection room.

    So much so that on the day of the opening, Chen Zhiyu, Jiang Luohe and the others were shocked one by one by the large love photo frame on the wall that collected various photos of the two of them.

    Oh, and the big logo outside is called Warm and Cold Photography Studio.

    Alas, it’s us insiders who are being abused!

    Several people looked at each other and smiled, and Jiang Luohe took the lead: “Boss Chi, Boss Song, we have been tortured to pieces by the two of you. Are you afraid that you will have to treat us to a big meal?”

    “That’s for sure.” Chi Nuan leaned against Song Shixue and held Shining Shining’s chin, “You have to go to our Boss Jiang’s restaurant to eat! Contribute some performance to our Boss Jiang, right?”

    “Oh, okay, let’s go then!” Jiang Luohe raised his eyebrows.

    Oh, yes, I almost forgot.

    “Wish you a happy opening of Mixed Studio!” they said cheerfully in unison, mixed with the excited roar of Shining.
