put on a show

The spring in the north is bright and short, and when you come to your senses, the trees are already shady, the sun is warm, and it is bustling into midsummer.

The villa area in Beishan is quiet at other times, except in summer, the lush green trees are full of sunlight and cicadas that don't stop singing.

He Xiaobao was anxiously getting angry on the ground floor of Xingpei's big villa. It wasn't enough to breathe in the central air conditioner. He even raised his hands and kept fanning them like elephant ears. The psychological effect probably made him feel cool. point.

After waiting for a long time, he still couldn't see Xing Pei's figure, so he couldn't help it, and broke into Xing Pei's bedroom by himself.

"Ancestor, why are you still asleep? It's almost 01:30 for the plane at three o'clock."

Xing Pei was completely naked, entangled with the quilt and a big yellow plush toy dog ​​regardless of you and me, and muttered: "It's 10 minutes from the airport, let me sleep for another 5 minutes."

"You are... so late, what do you do? Director Jia wants to scold someone again. He has such a big hand, so you have to listen to scolding you. Do you like being scolded so much?"

"A Pei, look, you have been acting for a month and a half, and Director Jia hasn't said yes yet, which means that he hasn't recognized you yet. We can take our time in acting, but let's have a correct attitude first. How can I teach you? Yours? Look at the dishes, you have to watch..."

Xing Pei writhed on the bed several times, and finally sat up, with an exuberant look of getting up, and he was about to yell, so He Xiaobao quickly slipped away.

He found Li Mo who was tidying up in the cloakroom, and accused him: "I told you to call me Xing Pei, and you called me here? With an assistant like you, how many things would he miss?"

Li Mo slandered, Xing Pei said that if he slept for another 5 minutes, he would not keep his promise.

The three came out of the house anxiously, and Xing Pei dozed off again after sitting in the car.

He is the leading actor in Director Jia's movie, this time it was He Xiaobao who led the lead, and he tried his best to try it out.The audition was years ago. At that time, there was still some distance between Yu Yan and Pei Qing. Only when Pei Qing taught him acting, the barrier between the two could be broken.So during that time Xing Pei devoted himself very much. He didn't think he would be able to catch Jia's eyes, but he was selected by accident.

Xing Pei specially made room for this drama, but the company still ignored their wishes and forced Xing Pei to give Xing Pei an advertisement with a lot of money and a bad brand.Xing Pei scolded for a long time, but in the end he couldn't hold back his face and gave Jia Daoqiu a two-day vacation.Xing Pei hardly closed his eyes for the past two days, that's why he was so sleepy today.

It was the hottest time of the day, the air conditioner in the car was not comfortable, it felt hot and stuffy, Xing Pei just dozed off but couldn't really fall asleep, he just looked out the window.

There were few cars on the road, and the sun made the air twist and dance.At this time, a car on the opposite side of the green belt passed by them. Xing Pei suddenly sat up, lay on the rear window and looked at it, shouting: "Li Mo, stop."

Li Mo thought that Xing Pei was motion sick, so he slowed down the speed of the car, and said helplessly: "This is a high speed, I can't stop."

"Where is the next turnaround?"

"There are still two kilometers."

"Hurry up, go to the next intersection and turn to the opposite side to catch up with that car."

He Xiaobao pressed the car window and stretched his head out to look at the car Xing Pei mentioned, a BMW [-] series, a car running all over the street, thinking that Xing Pei had his eyes on some kind of car.

"It's a bad car, why chase it?"

"I seem to have seen Pei Qinghuan in the car." It's a pity that it was too fast, the first glance was unconscious, and the second glance was too late.

He Xiaobao looked incredible: "I can't."

Just at the entrance of a toll booth, Xing Pei asked Li Mo to turn around, but He Xiaobao held down his hand.

"No, Ah Pei, you're in a hurry and it's too late. Besides, it might not be him. If you misread it, it would be a waste of delay."

"I feel like it's him."

"It doesn't matter if you think about it day and night, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, I have searched hard for the past two months but I can't find it, and you just ran into it like a blind cat and a mouse? "

Yes, what a coincidence, Xing Pei slumped powerlessly on the back seat, and complained about He Xiaobao: "If you are uneducated, don't use idioms indiscriminately."

He Xiaobao fell silent.

Xing Pei frowned impatiently: "I said you have some news. After searching for two months, you can't find a living person. Did you do it on purpose?"

"You've wronged me. I've searched all the people surnamed Pei I know, as well as the crew that are currently working. No one knows where he went. What can I do?"

"There's no way, is it? When my film is finished, I'll find it myself, and you can go away."

He Xiaobao was very angry, but he didn't dare to talk back, so he could only hold his mouth and get angry.

Xing Pei couldn't care whether He Xiaobao was angry or not, so he looked back a few more times, although the car had already disappeared from sight.

Last month's Silver Fox Film Awards ceremony, last year's "The Piano Teacher" became a dark horse and won many awards.Among them, Xing Pei was nominated for the best actor for the first time, and without any suspense, Pei Qing also won the best supporting actor.Even that day, he didn't show up, and Xing Pei even went to inquire. It is said that the organizing committee has not been able to contact him. In the end, it was Zhao Yiru who went up to collect the trophy on his behalf.

Xing Pei closed his eyes, frowned, and his heart tightened again and again, where did Pei Qing go, how could he find him, said that he regretted it, apologized to him, and tried to redeem everything he messed up .

He remembered a sentence he had read, that there is only one criterion for judging whether the feelings he experienced are love, and that is whether you will feel pain for it, and true love always makes people feel pain.Xing Pei scoffed at this, but now, looking back, he and Pei Qing were throbbing with ecstasy and heartbeats accompanied by jealousy, uneasiness, grievance and pain.

However, it is only today that he understands that the real pain is not conflicts, quarrels and cold wars, nor is it finding out that the other party once had someone he liked and loved less, but that this person has really disappeared and cannot be found.Thinking of losing Pei Qinghuan completely and never seeing him again, Xing Pei felt a little breathless.

He quickly put an end to this thought, no, he will find it.

Xing Pei turned to ask: "When will the court start?"

Xing Pei found someone to find out the fans who went to Pei Qing's house to throw paint and smash cars. It's not just one person, they also have a dedicated group.Judging from the information fed back by the undercover agents who sneaked into this group, each of the hundreds of people in this group has several Xing Pei's fan groups, and they are all Xing Pei's fanatical fans, and no one is allowed to discredit their idols. If anyone speaks ill of Xing Pei, they will unite and attack.Some time ago, Xing Pei had a public relations crisis because of Pei Qing. In their eyes, Pei Qing was still the embodiment of evil and should be apologetic with death.

Seeing this information made Xing Pei's back feel cold. Without too much trouble, professionals found out the people who splashed paint and smashed cars. Xing Pei directly sued these people without saying a word, and issued a public statement to severely criticize this behavior.

"Next week, what's the matter?"

"I want to go and see."

"Are you crazy." He Xiaobao raised his eyebrows, "The lawyer told me that you have little chance of winning the lawsuit for infringing on the right of reputation. The person who smashed the car and splashed the paint must be sued by the person himself, so don't get involved. , so as not to be caught again.”

"Let's forget it like that? If I recruited gangsters so much, I can't get away from these stupid bastards."

"I'm your fan after all, so don't be too extreme." He Xiaobao was still a little worried, "I think you've overdone what happened this time, so just issue a statement and condemn it, so that individual fans should not be so extreme. Why do you still have to sue, you don’t know that the sunspots are so happy to watch us fight in the nest.”

"You're farting. Some single-celled organisms just want to find a way to release their malice. Let these idiots continue to do this. One day, if I am kidnapped as a cult leader and blocked by the entire network, you will be happy .”

He Xiaobao glared at Xing Pei: "Bah, bah, what nonsense are you talking about. Your fans are extreme, and you are also extreme, why do you think so badly about people. I think those little girls just like you too much, but they are just ignorant That's all."

"My lord, I've reached the powder washing stage too. Don't ask for ignorant, stupid, or foolish people. Really, such things as traffic stars are too empty. Sooner or later, I will be caught by these people." It’s hard to get up. Entering the stage of transformation, we need to be more down-to-earth, take less fancy announcements, pay more attention to good works, and you have to hold on to the company.”

He Xiaobao nodded, and looked at Xing Pei with relief: "Carry it, let me carry it, and I have to carry it for you even if I bite my teeth."

What he thought in his heart was that the little wolf cub he brought had finally grown up and became a more ambitious alpha wolf.The seemingly courageous decision to give up is actually because of a greater appetite.This is what He Xiaobao has always admired about Xing Pei. He sees his future very clearly, chooses well, is decisive, and never procrastinates or hesitates.

Of course, for Xing Pei, these high-sounding words were just for He Xiaobao, and for He Xiaobao to persuade the company's senior management, and he just couldn't swallow this breath, and couldn't swallow Pei Qing because of the hurt and grievance he had suffered.

Xing Pei went back to the original topic: "Master Bao, please take the trouble to find Pei Qing for me."

He Xiaobao looked at Xing Pei with helplessness and concern for a while, and finally sighed: "I will try my best."

"Thank you."

He Xiaobao was also very sad.Although he was reluctant, seeing Xing Pei's distraught appearance some time ago was even more unbearable, and he also asked everywhere, but there was no news of this person.He also found that Pei Qing didn't really have any close friends, and those who seemed to know him well didn't speak very well of him, it was just that he was stubborn and lofty and not easy to associate with.Who knew that only Xing Pei was the bastard who had eaten the weight, and he was determined to have such a person.He couldn't find it, and He Xiaobao didn't recruit, so he could only find a friend to check it through some illegal means.

"Ah Pei, let me remind you again. You are right to break up with Pei Qing. This is the best choice for your future. What others see is glamorous, but I see it a little bit." You have suffered a lot to come to this day. You and Pei have caused so many troubles. If there are any more revelations, it will have a great impact on you. Tianbao can't hold back these negative news If not, they may choose to give up on you."

Xing Pei's eyes darkened: "Wouldn't it be better not to be exposed again?"

"That's what I said, but the paper can't contain the fire. There will always be a day when the public finds out." He Xiaobao resolutely went all out to make it clear, "Ah Pei, think about it. You just turned 25 years old. You are so young. Standing in this position, your future is limitless. Besides, people will grow and mature slowly, and their feelings will also change accordingly. If you are dying now, you may regret it when you think about it later. I can’t say which is more important. But you have to weigh yourself carefully."

Xing Pei didn't answer for a while, He Xiaobao thought he had listened, so he added another sentence: "If you want me to say, stop here."

"If I tell you to look for it, then you can look for it for me. Don't be so fucking babbling, it's so annoying."
