Loveless Marriage: Wen Shaotang is Addictive

"How could it be?" Leng Yan was really worried for them, "James is duplicity, you can't see it?"

Xiao Xing's character is very rigid, and he won't easily show his inner softness, "You didn't see his unfeeling towards me with your own eyes. I really didn't see his duplicity, but I really felt it."

Leng Yan was stunned and didn't know what to say.As an outsider, she really shouldn't interfere with other people's feelings, but as a friend, she couldn't bear to see a pair of lovers become strangers.

Not wanting the atmosphere to become awkward, Xiao Xing changed the subject, "Sister Yan, let's not talk about him. When I see Director Zhang later, he will ask you some questions about your understanding of the script and similar issues. You should think about it carefully." how to answer."

"Okay." Leng Yan liked this story very much, so she read the original book on purpose, her tone was full of confidence, "Don't worry, it's okay."

……

"Hello Director Zhang," Leng Yan smiled politely when she saw the tall, thin, bookish middle-aged man in front of her, "I'm Leng Yan."

Director Zhang stretched out his hand, and shook her gentlemanly, "Hello, please sit down."

Leng Yan sat down gracefully, Xiaoxing sat beside her, and there were some staff from the main creative party on the table.

After the two parties were polite, Director Zhang said straightforwardly, "In the past two years, you don't seem to have any film and television works."

Sighing in her heart, Leng Yan acted very calmly, "Indeed. I retired for three years due to personal reasons. After my comeback, I participated in the filming of a youth idol drama, but due to some external factors, it didn't go well. Finished."

"The director of that play...is Chen Shen?"

Hearing this name, Leng Yan frowned subconsciously.

That scumbag is a stain in her memory, if it wasn't mentioned at this moment, Leng Yan would like to delete him permanently.

But in front of Director Zhang, she couldn't show anything, "Yes."

After thinking for a while, Leng Yan asked curiously, "You and him... are friends?"

"Not really friends," Director Zhang said implicitly, "We are college classmates, but we don't usually have any contact. I also heard about him from others..."

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together.If the other party's answer was yes just now, Leng Yan would definitely consider rejecting this drama.Because she really didn't want that horrible and disgusting thing to happen again.

"Oh," Leng Yan nodded politely, and echoed, "It's like this..."

"It is said that he has settled abroad for a long time, and there will be no more works," Director Zhang shook his head, "I always feel that he must have experienced something, otherwise he would not have made this decision. Although our friendship is average, but He's undeniably talented."

After a lot of foreshadowing, the man finally got to the point, "Why didn't you finish that play?"

"This..." I didn't expect him to be so direct, Leng Yan was about to prevaricate, her tone was full of helplessness, "There are many reasons, but it's been a long time, and I don't really remember the specific reasons..."

Director Zhang is a shrewd person, and from the attitude of the other party, he can be sure that there must be something ulterior.

"Oh..." Zhang Minhan raised his teacup and took a sip, "It's okay, I'm just curious, just ask, don't take it to heart."

Leng Yan bent her lower lip and asked tentatively, "Director Zhang is interested in this matter?"

The man's eyes moved slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "To be honest, I like the book "You, Once Amazed My Time", and I also fought for the copyright, but Chen Shen took the lead."

Leng Yan suddenly nodded, "It turns out that there is still such a relationship. Now that I think about it, will Director Zhang feel a little pity?"

Zhang Minhan smiled calmly, "It's okay to think about it. This kind of thing is normal in the circle, and competition is inevitable. However, it is a pity that such a good story cannot be presented to the audience in the end."

"It's quite a pity," Leng Yan couldn't help feeling emotional, "The original author of this book is a good friend of mine. When she learned that the play died, she was sad for a long time."

Originally, I wanted to inquire about some news in the industry through Leng Yan, but I didn't expect it to surprise him, "So you know the author of the original work. I like her writing style very much. Let's meet and communicate with each other when we have a chance. And, I'm very interested in buying the remaining rights to that book."

It sounded like a good thing, Leng Yan readily agreed, "Okay, don't worry, I will mention it to her."

After chatting for a long time, it seems that it has nothing to do with today's topic.The producer on the side saw it, and was extremely anxious, "Ah... well, don't just talk too much, the dishes are ready, we can officially start the meal."

Understanding what the producer meant, Zhang Minhan followed his words and continued, "Yes, let's eat first. We should focus on our own movies. We can talk about other things later..."

The whole meal had a good atmosphere, and everyone talked about the script very positively.

None of the people present tried to persuade them to drink, and they all acted on the principle of voluntary drinking or not.

Because of this, Leng Yan took the initiative to toast two glasses of wine, leaving a friendly and generous impression on everyone.

Leng Yan was overwhelmed with alcohol, after only two or three cups, her cheeks turned red.

After the dinner was over, she and Xiao Xing walked out of the restaurant.

"Sister Yan," Xiaoxing looked at the people beside him with surprise in his eyes, "I didn't expect that you would take the initiative to drink today."

"They are all the main creators of the crew, I should toast," Leng Yan's head felt a little dizzy, and her feet seemed to be on cotton, "Since returning to China, I have not completed a work, and even variety shows have stopped. Yes. I really cherish this opportunity, I don’t want a big hit, I just want to finish the filming smoothly.”

"I understand your feelings," Xiaoxing naturally understood her personality after being with Leng Yan for so long, "Don't worry, the bad things have passed, and the rest must be all good days."

Leng Yan covered her mouth and laughed twice, because of the effect of alcohol, she was much more lively than usual, "I hope what you said is true... Good luck, come quickly, whatever you want can come true..."

Humming a song, Leng Yan walked out of the gate, but when she was going down the stairs, her center of gravity was unstable, and her body tilted out to the outside.

Originally, Xiaoxing had been supporting her all the time, but just at this moment, a call came in from her mobile phone.Just as she was looking for her phone in her bag, something happened.

It was too late for Xiaoxing to react, but fortunately, a man rushed over and caught Leng Yan firmly.

Originally, Leng Yan thought that this fall would definitely not escape, but she didn't expect to fall into a hard embrace.

Leng Yan stood firm and looked up. The face in front of her didn't leave a deep impression on her, but the man's fake right eye, which could be seen at a glance, reminded her of him instantly.

"Boss," Meng Sheng's eyes flashed something unknown, "Are you alright?"

"It's okay." Leng Yan took two steps back, keeping a certain distance from him, "Thank you."

"Oh my god, I'm scared to death," Xiaoxing grabbed Leng Yan's arms, looked her up and down, with a worried expression on his face, "Did you twist your foot or something?"

Leng Yan pulled her arm out and said with a smile, "No, don't be nervous, thanks to him."

Only then did Xiaoxing look at Meng Sheng, and nodded approvingly, "You came in time and did a good job."

Meng Sheng lowered his head and bowed his waist, looking very humble, "I rushed over immediately after receiving your message. What happened just now is just a coincidence, as long as the boss is fine."

Although this person's speech and behavior are very decent, but Leng Yan always feels that there is something strange about him.But if asked the reason, Leng Yan couldn't tell.

It's just a feeling, and this feeling... seems familiar...

"I'm fine," Leng Yan repeated, as if it was a kind of confirmation, "I'm fine, don't worry any more."

After returning home safely, Leng Yan lay down on the sofa in the living room regardless.

In her opinion, eating and socializing is more difficult than catching up with announcements.

Work just makes her physically tired, but dealing with people makes her heart tired.

"came back?"

A man's voice sounded above her head, and Leng Yan was startled with goosebumps all over her body, she opened her eyes immediately, "What are you doing? You scared me!"

"I still asked what are you doing, why are you lying here?" Wen Yuanchen sat on the sofa, but frowned, "Have you been drinking?"

"How do you know?" Leng Yan rounded her beautiful eyes, but her eyes were confused, with a drunken obsequiousness, "I only drank a little...hehe..."

"A little bit?" Wen Yuanchen's expression looked serious, "Judging from the smell of alcohol on your body, it must not be a little bit."

Leng Yan raised her arm, leaned close to her nose and sniffed, "It's okay, why is your sense of smell so sensitive, like a dog...hehe..."

The woman's smile seemed to bring him back to their first meeting.

That time at Nishang, she drank a lot, and crashed into her arms just like that, and it was this kind of provocative, unconscious, and even silly smile that captured Wen Yuanchen's heart.

"Why drink?" Wen Yuanchen asked again.

"Didn't I tell you? I went out to eat with the main creative staff." Leng Yan rubbed her painful forehead, "It's normal to eat and drink, why make such a fuss."

I learned from Yao Yunyi how to count a woman's dangerous period. On such an important day, how could Wen Yuanchen let alcohol ruin his man-making plan!
"It's not that you're not allowed to drink, but not during this period of time." Wen Yuanchen knew her amount, and asked her to drink openly, but she couldn't drink much, so naturally she wouldn't be strictly controlled.

"During this period?" Although confused, Leng Yan still grasped the point, "What happened during this period?"

"During this period... your body is relatively weak," Wen Yuanchen made up a reason casually, and smiled charmingly, "However, I have a way to help you recuperate..."
