typical accident

When Chen Qi called, Ji Yuran had just come out of the bathroom. He wiped his hair with a towel, and picked up the phone with one hand: "Brother Chen, what's wrong?"

The other party's voice carried an unconcealable smile: "I have a good news here, and a better news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Ji Yuran probably guessed what he was going to say: "Did I pass the audition?"

"So confident in yourself?" Chen Qi teased with a smile.

Ji Yuran said: "I'm just guessing casually, what other good news can there be?"

"Congratulations, you guessed it right," Chen Qi said, "The director is quite satisfied with you, go up tonight to sign the contract, and have a meal together to prepare."

Ji Yuran went to the audition a week ago. In fact, he didn't have much time to prepare. After the estrus period passed, the audition was less than half a month away.But fortunately, the character is relatively close to his own temperament, coupled with the tireless and serious thinking, the final result is quite satisfactory.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Ji Yuran still couldn't restrain his surprise when he heard the news that he got the role.

"Don't rush to be happy, I have some good news," Chen Qishen said mysteriously.

Ji Yuran quietly listened to him continue.

"Who do you think the other male lead will play?"

Hearing his tone as if some big name was coming, Ji Yuran searched his memory, but did not think of any suitable candidate.

Chen Qi on the other end couldn't help it before he could speak.

"You will never guess," he said, "it's Xie Chu."

These two words hit his forehead like a fixing spell, and Ji Yuran froze in place.

Chen Qi continued to say on the other end of the phone: "Didn't expect it? I was shocked when I found out. But that's right, Xie Chu has sung for so many years, and it's normal to want to transform into an actor. This time we But he picked up a big bargain, and with his popularity, this show will be a hit, Xiao Ran, you have to seize this opportunity..."

It took a while for Ji Yuran to come back to his senses, and he gave a absent-minded "hmm".

"Speaking of which, you also recorded the previous episode with him, right? This is really destined."

It's not just fate, it's simply evil fate.

Ji Yuran still can't help but feel hot when he thinks about that embarrassing experience back then.The role of the temporary mark has passed, and the teeth marks on the neck have almost disappeared. He planned to forget this experience as a dark history, but now he is about to work with the person concerned. He just thinks about it. The picture of getting along is embarrassing.

I really don't know if it's lucky or unlucky.

When he was rummaging in the closet for the clothes to wear for the dinner tonight, he belatedly thought that Xie Chu would also go, right?

The coat and bracelet he left last time are still with me, should I take them?

Ji Yuran's face became hot again when he thought of the messy isolation ring that he had ravaged.

The coat is okay, but the bracelet is fine, let alone that I don't have the shame, even if I really return it, the other party may not want it, after all, it's just a bracelet.

In the evening, Chen Qi led Ji Yuran to formally sign the contract, and then went to the reserved hotel room with the producer and other creative staff.

In the next half hour, people arrived one after another, including the director, assistant director, and several other important supporting roles, and a large table was filled.

Ji Yuran looked around but still didn't see Xie Chu's figure, he was relieved but also a little regretful from nowhere.

Chen Qi couldn't see him being in a daze on such an important occasion, so he hurriedly teased him and motioned him to toast the director.

The director's surname is Zhang, and she is an extremely rare female Alpha. She is around forty years old and has become famous in the industry at a young age. Coupled with her rich family background, she herself is one of the investors in this film and has a very large voice.Ji Yuran was able to act, and finally got the approval of the director.

Director Zhang smiled at him, the smile was very kind, but there was a natural superiority unique to Alpha in his expression, which made Ji Yuran inexplicably feel a strong sense of being oppressed.

He collected himself and raised his glass naturally: "Thank you, Director Zhang, for giving me this opportunity."

Director Zhang drank the wine in his glass very readily: "You don't need to thank me. I wouldn't choose you if you weren't suitable. You performed very well on the audition day. I believe you can become Zhou Shi'an in the script."

Ji Yuran was about to say something to express his gratitude again, when Director Zhang continued: "It's a pity that Xie Chu didn't come, otherwise you two can use this day to communicate and exchange feelings, after all, you want to play brothers. He has never acted before, and he will I don’t know if it will work, maybe you have to take him with you.”

He automatically ignored the second half of the sentence, and subconsciously asked: "Is he not coming because of something?"

"His agent called and said that he might not be able to make it." Director Chen looked a little helpless and dissatisfied, "Big star, please be busy."

After Ji Yuran heard this, before he had time to feel it, the door of the box was suddenly opened, and a waiter walked in leading the people behind him.

"Hey, Cao Cao Cao Cao is here."

The arrival of Xie Chu caught the attention of the whole table. He was still wearing a low-key sportswear today, with a peaked cap on his head, which was almost exactly the same as what he wore on the day of recording the show. He almost suspected that it was the same clothes.

"The big name is finally here? I thought I couldn't wait for your visit today." Director Zhang teased him in a drawn-out tone.

Xie Chu took off his hat and sat down, revealing a handsome face that did not hide his exhaustion. He took the wine glass handed over by someone else, poured a full glass, and straightened his head to drink.

"The plane is late. I have been late for such a long time. I would like to apologize to everyone." Xie Chu said, picking up the wine bottle on the side and filling another glass for himself.

The bystanders present were stunned for a long time, and they quickly realized this, and stepped forward to persuade them.

Seeing this, Director Zhang's expression softened a lot, and he raised his glass to thank Chu, saying, "Xiao Xie, I wish us a happy cooperation."

The two drank the wine in their glasses, as if they had kicked off something, and the atmosphere of the scene became more and more happy.

Director Zhang introduced the two very familiarly, "Xiao Ji, Xiao Xie, you two don't know each other yet, do you? We will be brothers in the future, so come say hello."

Ji Yuran forced himself to look directly at each other calmly, Xie Chu also looked at him, there was no extra emotion in his eyes, as if the two had never met before.

After toasting without embarrassment, Ji Yuran lowered his head and pretended not to be familiar with it. Fortunately, Director Zhang didn't say anything, and started chatting with the producer instead.

More than half an hour later, the banquet was almost over, Ji Yuran leaned on the chair a little drunk, saw Xie Chu get up and go out, the hat was still on the seat, probably going to the toilet.He didn't know why his brain got hot, he stood up and followed out.

The air outside is much fresher than the stale gas mixed with alcohol and cold air in the box.Ji Yuran stopped by the front desk to pick up things, and when he walked to the door of the toilet, he became sober, he couldn't help hesitating, and felt that it seemed too reckless for him to follow.

Before deciding whether to go back now or not, a person suddenly came out from the corridor on the other side of the toilet, with his head down and half a cigarette in his mouth.

Ji Yuran's footsteps paused, and he froze in place with some surprise. He thought that Xie Chu came out to go to the bathroom, but he didn't expect that he came to smoke.

Xie Chu was obviously taken aback when he looked up and saw him. He took out his cigarette and put it on the trash can next to the toilet. He looked at him expressionlessly for a while, as if he was waiting for him to explain why he came.

Ji Yuran saw that there was no way to escape the current situation, so he simply said everything he wanted to say. After all, he still had to cooperate in the future, so he couldn't keep being so awkward.

He took a step forward, considered for two seconds and said, "Thank you for your help that day, and I'm sorry for causing you trouble. You haven't been affected, have you?"

Xie Chu shook his head when he heard this, and turned his gaze to look at his neck.

Ji Yuran was stunned for a moment, and when he realized what he was looking at, he became embarrassed. Although the other person's eyes did not have any meaning, the part that had been bitten could not help but feel faintly hot.

He quickly changed the subject, handed the bag he had just brought back from the front desk forward, and said, "This is your coat, I washed it clean."

Xie Chu took the bag, opened it and took a look inside, then stretched out his hand to look through it.

Ji Yuran didn't understand what he was checking, and consciously completed the task. He was about to say goodbye and leave when he saw the person on the opposite side raised his head after flipping through, and asked very seriously, "Where's my bracelet?"
