we are not friends anymore

Qiao Mingxi stays in the hospital every day waiting for Qiao Mingyue to wake up. The elders of the Qiao family's offshoots will come to make trouble every now and then. When Qiao Mingyue was here, they were afraid of her methods, and now they don't release Qiao Qifeng's lonely son. in the eyes.Qiao Mingxi didn't back down even a single step, she insisted on losing her popularity every time.

He can't say anything out of the ordinary, and he can't be cruel, but he just insists on not letting these uncles who have their own thoughts interfere with him.Since Qiao Mingyue became the head of the family, these collateral families had no real power, and they had no choice but to make trouble.

Qiao Mingxi came out of the attending doctor's office and answered a call from Xie Zhen at the corner of the corridor.

"He is already in country r." Xie Zhen is a man with a fierce aura, and his tone is always a bit cold when he speaks, "No matter what, you should make your own decision."

Qiao Mingxi leaned back against the wall. This hospital is a private one. There are almost no other patients on this floor except Qiao Mingyue. No one moves around in the corridor. He stands here quietly without hearing a sound.

Xie Zhen also waited patiently. After a long time, Qiao Mingxi pursed his lips and tightened his fingers holding the phone. He said slowly, "Let's deal with it according to your ideas..."

He closed his eyes, and Qiao Mingyue's face covered with blood appeared in front of his eyes, which made his eyes hurt intermittently in the cold night rain.

"I have no opinion."

There was still a cold reminder on the phone, Ji Yan hung up the phone, sat in the car for a while, and then got out of the car with an umbrella.

City d becomes a city of rain when it comes to this season. It rains all day long, and the air in the whole city is moist and soft.

He walked through the gate of the hospital and stood by the green belt for a while. Because of the rain, there were few people outside, and the surroundings were quiet, only the windshield brushes falling, mixed with the faint sound of cars passing by in the distance.

Qiao Mingxi stood at the entrance of the building, as if he was waiting for someone. He was wearing a thick coat, but he still looked very thin.

What Yi Huan said that day still echoed in Ji Yan's ears.

"Did you talk to Minci? Talk to him as seriously as you talk to me now?"

Ji Yan stood where he was, Qiao Mingxi couldn't see him in this position, the boy turned his face sideways, his expression a little blurred in the rain curtain.Ji Yan looked at him and walked towards him.

The high-heeled shoes made a crisp sound on the stone slab, and a figure walked past Ji Yan, hurried up the steps and walked to Qiao Mingxi.

Qiao Mingxi smiled at the visitor, the two said a few words, and walked toward the building side by side.

Ji Yan glanced down at the phone screen, stood there for a while, then turned and walked in the direction he came from.

"I can go up by myself, why come out to pick it up." Luna put the umbrella into the basket prepared by the hospital, and followed Qiao Mingxi into the elevator.

Qiao Mingxi smiled slightly: "By the way, come out and get some air."

"How is the third princess?" Luna asked with concern.

Qiao Mingxi didn't speak, but shook his head slightly.

Seeing his gloomy expression, Luna paused, and swallowed her words of comfort.When the two walked outside the ward, Luna looked at Qiao Mingyue, who was still in a coma, and guessed that the situation was still not very good. It seemed that Qiao Mingxi had to miss "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds".

But she still wanted to ask Qiao Mingxi: ""Bright Moon and Dark Clouds" will be launched next month, let me ask for your opinion."

Qiao Mingxi froze for a moment, looked at Qiao Mingyue in the hospital bed, and said in a low voice after a long time: "Push it, I will prepare the liquidated damages."

"This is not a problem." Luna sighed, "Forget it, everything is here now. Don't worry, I will help you deal with it."

Qiao Mingxi nodded when she heard the words, then turned her head and smiled sincerely at Luna: "Thank you, Sister Na."

The hospital and the outside world seem to be divided into two worlds. Qiao Mingxi clumsily handles the big and small affairs of the Qiao family every day, while guarding Qiao Mingyue every step of the way, knowing nothing about the situation on the Internet.

So he didn't know that his fans and Heizi had been arguing on the Internet for the past two days.

Luna had just contacted Huang Yao, and before the two parties had formally finalized, the news was leaked by some uncontrollable staff member.The marketing account on Weibo soon broke the news that Qiao Mingxi had withdrawn from "Mingyue Cangyun" on suspicion of breaking the contract.

Here Luna met with the person in charge of the crew several times to discuss matters related to the breach of contract; the crew over there also had a headache and began to look for new candidates overnight.As soon as the machine was about to be turned on, these things caused the staff below to work overtime, and some impatient people complained a few words, so there were rumors on the Internet that Qiao Mingxi was playing a big role.

Ji Yan opened Qiao Mingxi's Weibo homepage, and the last original Weibo was still on the day he went to record the TV show.

Scrolling down, there are several consecutive articles that are almost all related to "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds".

Qiao Mingxi v:

So why did Mosa say to Heng Shuo that "it's all useless work"?Maybe I'll have to think it over again.

[Picture: Coded script excerpts]

Qiao Mingxi v:

I have received a lot of character analysis from fans, thank you [比心]

……

Luna's work and personal numbers couldn't be reached, Ji Yan hung up the phone without thinking for the first time, and drove to Dongxing by himself.

It has been almost a year since he left Dongxing, and the artists of the same school were a little surprised to see him, and looked at him quietly when they passed by.Without squinting, Ji Yan went straight to Luna's office wearing sunglasses.

When he came in, he walked through the large parking lot of Dongxing, where gossip reporters were often ambushing, but he didn't care whether he was photographed, whether there would be "Ji Yan appeared in Dongxing Entertainment, and the old man" in tomorrow's entertainment news. The relationship between the owner and the owner is suspected to have broken the ice," the report said.

Luna was a little surprised when she saw Ji Yan, and subconsciously looked behind him: "Why are you here?"

Ji Yan took off his sunglasses: "Come and take a look, did I bother you?"

"That's not true." Luna sighed and asked him to come in and sit down.Although he left c.air and Dongxing, Ji Yan has always had a good relationship with the people in the original company. He helped Luna lead the whole c.air well, and Luna trusted him.

"You can't get through on the phone, so I came here to ask." Ji Yan said straight to the point, "Is "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds" pushed?"

Luna was taken aback for a moment, with a strange look on her face: "Yes."

"Don't push." ​​Ji Yan said, "I have a way."

Luna didn't seem to react, she looked at him for a while before saying, "Why are you taking care of this?"

Ji Yan paused for a long time before whispering: "He wants to act."

"No..." Luna organized her words carefully, "Come on, Mingxi doesn't know when she will be able to return to work. If the drama is not postponed, can the crew wait forever? Second... um, why do you care? Qi Mingxi, do you want to act?"

"The first question, you will know in a few days." Ji Yan said, but did not continue.

Luna said: "How many days is it? I can't tell Huang Yao that we're going to perform after you say a word, right?"

"One day at most." Ji Yan got up and said goodbye, "If I don't give you news by tomorrow, you can postpone it any longer."

After leaving Luna's office, Ji Yan sat quietly in the car for a while.In fact, he is not addicted to cigarettes, but at this moment, he feels a little need for nicotine.He reached out and looked inside the overturned car, but found no trace of cigarettes.

With his hands on the steering wheel, he looked at the occasional pedestrians passing by in front of the car, and he was rarely in a daze.

When c.air debuted for two or three years, Luna accepted Qiao Mingxi's first solo TV drama. Before signing the contract, Qiao Mingxi was a little bit resistant, and she pursed her lips and refused to go out.

"Why don't you want to act?" The two crowded in the hallway, Qiao Mingxi sat on the shoe-changing stool, and Ji Yan lowered his head to tie his shoelaces. He didn't get up when he was done, but squatted in front of him and looked into his eyes.

Qiao Mingxi looked at him, and said slowly in a low voice, "I don't like it."

"Don't like this character?" Ji Yan asked, "Then play "Waiting"?"

Qiao Mingxi was silent, but still shook his head.

"Then what do you like?" Ji Yan asked him patiently.

Qiao Mingxi looked at him with dark eyes, and whispered: "I don't want to go alone...A Yan, I want to be with you."

Ji Yan was silent for a while, and said to him: "Ah Xi, you have to make up your own mind."

Qiao Mingxi wanted to lower her head again when she heard the words, but Ji Yan held her face tightly.The other party gently raised his head with him, and the two looked at each other again.

"Go and act." Ji Yan whispered, "I'll be with you."

Later, Qiao Mingxi joined the crew, and Ji Yan spent more than half of his time in the crew with him, just like Qiao Mingxi followed him every step of the way.

The whole crew said that c.air's group soul is really strong, and the relationship between the members is really good.

Later, Qiao Mingxi won the first Best Supporting Actor in his life for that drama.

He finished his thank you speech in a state of fugue, and walked off the stage slowly, looking at Ji Yan without blinking, Ji Yan smiled at him, stood up and gave him a hug.

It was just a very common part of the two of them in the past eight years. In fact, every role Qiao Mingxi took and every song he chose were mixed with Ji Yan's opinion.

Ji Yan asked him, do you want to act?what do you want to singHe just looked at Ji Yan with dark eyes, as if he could only make a decision if Ji Yan gave his opinion.

He never took the initiative to fight for it, never took the initiative to say, I want to play this role, I want to sing this song.

So now watching him share the content of "Bright Moon Cangyun" one after another on Weibo, even if he didn't say it, Ji Yan knew it.

Qiao Mingxi wanted to play Mosa.

Just start here.

Ji Yan closed his eyes and thought.

He sat in the car for a long time before he opened his eyes, picked up the mobile phone beside him and flipped through the communication for a while, and dialed a series of numbers that he hadn't called for a long time.

"Where?" he asked, "out for a drink."

The flickering lights and loud music in the bar made it a headache, Ji Yan lowered the brim of his hat, walked sideways through the crowd, and walked straight in.

"Handsome guy, would you like a drink?" The long-haired woman turned to him, and Ji Yan raised her hand to stop the wine glass she handed over.

"You look like a star." The woman chuckled.

Ji Yan ignored her, went up to the second floor in front of the stairs, walked all the way to the innermost place where there were fewer and fewer people, and stopped in front of a box.

He pushed the door open, and the opened door immediately let out the originally blocked singing.

"White moonlight—on both ends of the horizon—"

The only person in the box was singing mesmerizingly, Ji Yan closed the door, bent down and pressed the pause button on the display screen, the music stopped abruptly, only the deep male voice was still singing.

"In my heart—but not—what are you doing?" The man suddenly lost his accompaniment, and turned his head to look at Ji Yan dissatisfied.

Ji Yan sat down on the sofa next to him: "Stop singing, not a single word is in tune."

"I can't compare with you singers." The man himself pressed the play button to sing again.

Ji Yan simply put away your microphone: "Let go of my ears, be quiet like your name."

An Jin shrugged, not annoyed, picked up the wine list on the table and threw it to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan reached out to take it, but without looking at the wine list, he picked up the unfinished wine on the table and poured it into an empty glass.

"Why, I have to share all this wine with me?" An Jin said, "You are the one who asked me to come out for a drink, is it just for justice?"

Ji Yan ignored him, drank all the wine in the glass, and said: "I just realized that you have returned to China after seeing the investment in the company's new drama. Are you upholding justice?"

"I'm busy recently." An Jin stretched out his hand and rang the bell to call the waiter, "Okay, you're more righteous than me, and you still think of calling me out for a drink."

"Don't rush to say this." Ji Yan leaned back on the sofa back, "I'm here to ask you for help."

An Jin looked at him, "hissed": "If I remember correctly, you still owe me a favor and haven't paid it back."

"There are too many debts." Ji Yan smiled leisurely, "Speaking directly, Huang Yao's upcoming filming of "Bright Moon and Dark Clouds" is your investment?"

"That's right." An Jin said, "You want to play the leading role? Didn't you recommend other movies for the National Teacher's movie?"

"I'm not acting." Ji Yan said, "I want to ask your help to delay the start-up."

An Jin glanced at him up and down: "Why?"

Ji Yan didn't answer, An Jin looked at him for a while, and suddenly realized: "Ah, I remembered, Dongxing breached the contract, you want me to wait for Qiao Mingxi?"

Ji Yan raised his eyes and glanced at him, An Jin frowned and looked at him again: "No, I don't understand it... What do you care about him? Don't you share with him..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Ji Yan looking at him with a half-smile in the dim light of the box, and swallowed the last few words.

After a pause, he said again: "When do you want me to wait?"

This time Changing Yan was silent for a while: "I don't know."

"I don't know?!" An Jin looked at him amusedly, "Brother Yan, you've been acting in dramas for so many years, you know how much it costs the crew to delay a day? You mean to let the whole crew wait for him now one person?"

Ji Yan didn't speak, just took out something from his coat pocket and put it in front of An Jin, An Jin took a closer look, it was a bank | bank | card.

He smiled mysteriously: "It's the first time in my life that someone slapped me with money."

"It's a day to wait." Ji Yan said, "You snatched the painting from me at the auction the year before last, and now you can go back with me to get it."

Now An Jin's expression became even more mysterious. He looked at it for a long time, and suddenly rushed over and grabbed the back of Ji Yan's head: "Who are you? What are you doing pretending to be old Ji? Tear off your penis and let me see it." true colors……"

"Get out." Ji Yan kicked him away, "Can you?"

"It's okay, actually, I don't care about the money." An Jin said, "Back then when He Xingzhou's house caught fire and his whole body was burned, didn't his crew also wait for him for two years, what's so difficult about it."

As he spoke, he touched his chin: "Take back your card, and I'll go back with you to get the painting later."

Ji Yan smiled lightly when he heard the words: "Have you become a big boss after taking power? Back then, when you wanted to meet your little boyfriend, you would cry and beg me for help."

"Fuck you." An Jin kicked him, "I have to correct you, first, I have always been a boss; second, he is not my boyfriend..."

He stopped suddenly and sighed.

Ji Yan didn't speak, and An Jing reached for the wine bottle, but found that it was empty, reached out and pressed the call bell.

"Really, old Ji." An Jin said, "You don't have to talk about money with me. You want to help Qiao Mingxi. It's nothing to me. I will definitely help. I was kicked by the old man Going abroad, life is aggrieved, this circle is so complicated, I couldn’t help you before. Now that I’m back, you can speak up if you have anything to do, let alone going up the mountain of swords and going down into the sea of ​​fire, just handing a love letter to a little boy. I will help you too!"

The corners of Ji Yan's mouth twitched when he heard this: "You'd better be quiet."

When Qiao Mingxi received Luna's call, she was standing in front of the vending machine in the stairwell, staring at the stuck hot coffee in a daze.

"It should be considered good news." Luna said with a smile, "Huang Yao said that we can wait, and we don't have to break the contract."

Qiao Mingxi was stunned: "Wait... wait for me?"

"Why don't you wait for me?" Luna smiled, "The big boss at the investor's side may have had his head smashed. He insisted on waiting for you to play Mosa, and said that he could wait until you can come back to play."

Qiao Mingxi opened his mouth and said slowly: "But, but the other leading actors..."

"The other side said we don't need to worry about it." Luna said, "I just want to tell you, I know you like this role, and it's always a good thing to be able to play it. Don't think about it here, and deal with family affairs with peace of mind. "

"... Mmm." After a long time, Qiao Mingxi responded softly.

After Luna said a few more words, she hung up the phone. Qiao Mingxi put away her mobile phone, squatted down and looked at the pick-up opening, and then looked up at the stuck coffee, frowning with a troubled look on her face.

While he was in a daze, the phone rang again. He picked it up and saw Xue Qiao's name appeared on the screen.

"Hello." He answered the phone.

There was a moment of silence over there, and then came Xue Qiao's voice with a smile: "How have you been lately?"

Qiao Mingxi just said "um", "Is there something wrong?"

"I heard about you playing Mosa." Xue Qiao said, "It's actually like this. Didn't I push Feng Qizhen before? The company suddenly asked me in the morning if I would play Heng Shuo. I asked and found out it was If I have to wait for you to delay the start, Xiao Su can't act anymore. I just remembered to call you, it's okay, just ask how you are recently."

"...Thank you." Qiao Mingxi paused and whispered, "I'm fine."

"That's good." Xue Qiao said with a smile in his voice, "I'll take Heng Shuo, then see you later on the set."

Qiao Mingxi opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly there was a sound of footsteps in the distance, and he ran from outside the stairwell, and ran back a few seconds later, a nurse with a familiar face leaned in and said with a smile:

"Mr. Qiao, your sister is awake!"
