Siheyuan: Cooking journey

He Yuzhu didn't say much.

Ye Shan glanced at him and knew that he didn't want to talk in detail, so she said directly: "Our Shanhai Gang still has some influence in Japan."

"If you really have any difficulties, we will help you solve the problem."

"thank you for your kindness."

He Yuzhu thanked him politely and said with a smile: "It's time for dinner now, I'll treat you to dinner. Thank you for providing accommodation and these materials."

subconsciously……

Ye Shan originally wanted to refuse.

After guessing what mission He Yuzhu might be carrying out, she couldn't help but want to find out more information to verify her guess.

But if I asked directly, it would be equivalent to revealing that I knew about his other identity.

Because the person who performed this task was another identity, Wang Xuan, not He Yuzhu. The most important thing is that when they were with that other identity, they had a close relationship. If this matter was exposed,

I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to have a normal meeting like now.

She was not worried that He Yuzhu would refuse to meet her out of embarrassment.

But I was afraid that if he really found out, I would feel indescribable awkwardness when facing him, and I wouldn't know how to treat him.

so.

Even though I already knew that He Yuzhu and Wang Xuan were the same person.

Ye Shan also just wanted to keep this matter deep in her heart and never tell it out.

"thank you for your invitation."

Under the mask, Ye Shan bit her lip tightly, and finally suppressed the urge to stay, and said politely: "I still have things to deal with. If you need any help, please contact me."

Finished speaking.

Ye Shan picked up the information, turned around and walked out.

When He Yuzhu sent her to the door, he recalled the news he had just read and said, "I remember that female star Xia Muya is one of yours, right?"

"Correct."

Ye Shan nodded and looked at him doubtfully.

"What's wrong?"

There must be a reason for bringing this up. Ye Shan felt that since He Yuzhu said this, he must have a purpose.

"I saw in the news before that she was going to play the role of Tang Monk in Journey to the West."

"It's best to let her give up this role."

This……

Ye Shan's eyes showed embarrassment and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"Is it difficult to refuse?" He Yuzhu saw her difficulty and asked curiously.

I hope that this so-called "Journey to the West" filming will not tarnish traditional classics. Giving Ye Shan a reminder is the simplest way.

If Xia Muya refuses to act, it would be better if the crew replaced her with a male actor.

But if they insist on having a woman play the role of Tang Monk, it would indicate that there are bad intentions behind this and they intend to further attack the entertainment companies involved.

"It's not that it's hard to refuse..."

Ye Shan sighed, hesitated, and seemed not to know how to start.

"The pay for this role is very high..."

Ye Shan thought about it and said so.

He Yuzhu immediately understood, as he had heard her mention before that she had to take care of many people.

These people were all Japanese who were eliminated, and Yamanaka Yue did not support her, so she did not get any financial help. Xia Muya was one of them, and she was a somewhat famous artist. It was obvious that Ye Shan decided to take this job to make money in order to supplement her life.

This is normal for such a high-paying work. After all, long hair is as important to women as life.

If a female star is asked to cut her hair or even shave her head for a film, no one would be willing to accept this arrangement unless they pay a high price.

Seeing that Ye Shan was in trouble, He Yuzhu said directly: "I will make up for the remuneration. As for your acting career, it doesn't have to be limited to Japan."

"For example, we can consider developing in Hong Kong, which is considered an extension of the Japanese entertainment industry."

"Regarding matters over there, I can help you contact advertising endorsements. Don't worry about the remuneration, it is definitely higher than in Japan. After all, a horse can't run all the time without being fed."

Whether it was finding a place to live or helping to settle Iga Shizue, Ye Shan always assisted with all her heart.

It seems unfair to ask her to give up such an opportunity to make money now, and it is only right to compensate her financially.

“It’s not really about compensation.”

Ye Shan shook her head and sighed hesitantly, "Because I have to play the role of a monk this time, I need to dress up as a man and cut my hair to become a big bald head. That's why I was offered a very high salary. That's why Masako wants to earn this money through this opportunity."

“This is also her intention.”

"Mind?"

He Yuzhu looked at Ye Shan in confusion, not understanding what she was talking about.

"Yeah, it's a thought."

Ye Shan nodded, somewhat unsure whether to continue.

Although he carries a lot of burdens, he always bears them silently and does not easily confide his troubles to others, but he is an exception in front of He Yuzhu.

I told him some of my true feelings last time, even though it feels a little awkward and shy when I think about it.

But after that, I did feel a lot more relaxed.

When He Yuzhu asked,

Ye Shan explained in a low voice with a little hesitation: "They are all very good. Even though they were forgotten by the world, they never gave up the life they loved. Over the years, they have helped each other and grown together. They have already become the most important existence to each other."

"Everyone knows how to cherish the peaceful and comfortable life they have now and work hard for it. And Masako is the best among them."

"She originally planned to pursue further studies and become an office worker, and then go to work in a certain unit according to the company's transfer. But unexpectedly, she suddenly chose to drop out of school to act and make money, rather than being a consumer. What's more surprising is that she became famous just by this work and became a popular celebrity in the film and television industry. This completely changed the original plan."

"According to the new plan, she will shuttle between different families as an artist to obtain information. When necessary, she can also serve as a caged bird for certain powerful people. If nothing unexpected happens, this is probably her future path."

"I didn't expect it to happen again. The Red Country signed a peace agreement with Japan."

"Now that we have no direction to move forward, what's the point of doing all this?"

“All arrangements came to a halt.”

"If that's all, it might be a good thing. Masako is no longer treated as a tool."

"But fate played another joke on her. She got sick."

"leukemia……"

Ye Shan's voice was trembling. "The examination showed that the disease was in the late stage. Chemotherapy is the only way to maintain life. There is no way to cure it completely. In other words, whether it is treated or not, the final result is the same."

Ye Shan's eyes sparkled, and she said bitterly, "Why is fate so unfair to her? She is so young and should have a brilliant life, but she got this disease. Not only is the cost of treatment high, but she also has to endure the pain of hair loss during each chemotherapy. She can only live a few more months at most. But we didn't give up. Even if it was only the last bit of time, we wanted to accompany her the rest of the way."

"But she took the initiative to let go. At the end of her life, she even wanted to exchange her beauty for some money. To this end, she accepted many jobs in the filming of restricted films and found a so-called sponsor."

"Fortunately I discovered it early, otherwise she would really do such a thing."

"She always thinks about the good things about others, but never thinks about who would be willing to spend the money she earns."

"We all hope that her departure will be pure and clean, as beautiful and pure as a clear stream."

"She took on this film after careful selection, thinking it would be a way to earn a good salary and be recognized by everyone. She didn't care much about cutting off her long hair. When life has come to an end, how many things in the world are worth worrying about?"

"The only thing she couldn't let go of was the sun that rose and set every day, giving her warmth and vitality."

"Although there are many beautiful things in this world that she is attached to, the world does not seem to care much about the existence of a small person like her."

"Even when she was facing separation, she was still so positive, always thinking about leaving something for everyone as a memory, or creating a new image to live forever in everyone's hearts."

Ye Shan's eyes sparkled with crystal light, and she looked particularly sad.

He Yuzhu looked at her and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He had doubted her when she said she was poor.

It was not until today that I realized that what she said was absolutely right. Every penny is spent to gain something more precious.

The world always has two sides: one side is bright sunshine, and the other side is dark and gloomy.

It is precisely because of the contrast that the sunlight appears more brilliant and dazzling, and so invaluable.

"Western medicine can't cure this disease. Have you tried traditional Chinese medicine?"

He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't know much about medicine."

"However, it is always good to think of more ways to try when you encounter a problem. Western medicine is direct and effective, but Chinese medicine also has its own unique features. I happen to know a good Chinese medicine expert, I can introduce him to you and ask him to treat Xia Muya. Even if the situation is very serious, it is much better than leaving it alone, right? Maybe a miracle will happen!"

Although he was confident in the treatment, He Yuzhu did not give a 100% commitment.

After all, he will be involved in another identity at that time.

If you make exaggerated promises at this time, such as saying that the disease can be cured, it will be embarrassing if the effect is not good.

So he couldn't make such a boast.

"Just relax. I can't guarantee that Xia Muya will recover, but at least I can alleviate her condition. There is still great hope that I can help her live another three to five years..."

"really?"

Ye Shan's eyes sparkled with excitement, and she looked at him anxiously: "Where is that person? Is he in the Red Country? I'll go back and tell Masako right away..."

"Don't worry..."

He Yuzhu comforted her in a gentle voice, then pretended to just remember and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, you know this person."

"Some time ago, someone asked me to help find someone."

"I thought you could help, so I gave them your contact information..."

Listen to him say this.

Ye Shan was slightly stunned and immediately thought of a name.

Then, she became even more certain in her heart that the person He Yuzhu was talking about was Wang Xuan.

Or rather, it was simply himself.

But Ye Shan knew that He Yuzhu still didn't know that he was Wang Xuan.

Therefore,

Ye Shan was determined not to let He Yuzhu know the truth, otherwise things would get out of control.
