"Seven times have I despised my own soul."

"The first time was when I saw her pretending to be humble in order to rise."

"The second time, when I saw her limping in front of the crippled."

"The third time, she was asked to choose between easy and difficult, and she chose easy."

A deep male voice sounded steadily and quietly in the empty room. The man sitting on the sofa was backlit, and the light left a bright silhouette around him.

The man lowered his brows and eyes, his eyes focused on the black and white words, his gentle voice covered up the redundant emotions in his tone, and only a line of poetry was spit out rhythmically through the trembling vocal cords:

"...she made a mistake, but comforted herself that others made the same mistake..."

"...She tolerated weakness, and she also regarded this tolerance as strength..."

"...she despised an ugly face, but she didn't know that it was another mask of herself..."

"...she sings carols and thinks it's a virtue..."

He made a mistake, but comforted himself that others made the same mistake.

He tolerated weakness and regarded this tolerance as strength.

Lu Chengyi stared at these few short lines indifferently, and there was silence in his deep black eyes.After a while, he put his hands on the pages of the book, turned his eyes to look at the person on the other side of the sofa.

Lin Luoting lay there lazily, her feet were bare and bare, her calf rested on the man's thigh, her eyelids were half closed, and her eyes fell on Lu Chengyi's Adam's apple rolling up and down.

After the poem, the Adam's apple stopped.

Lin Luoting opened his eyes as if returning to his senses, "Have you finished reading?"

Lu Chengyi: "Yes."

"Seven Times I Despised My Soul by Gibran," he asked interestingly, "Why did you choose this one?"

Lu Chengyi twitched the corners of his mouth mockingly, looked at him coldly, "What do you think?"

"I said," Lin Luoting replied with a pleasant smile, "you made a decision that makes me happy."

It was a normal transaction, where you get what you want and what you want, he really doesn't understand the self-examination of the other party.

Turning around and stretching out his hand to reach the small table not far away, the off-white top was pulled up a bit because of the movement, and the skin underneath was smooth and delicate, a little whiter than the color of the clothes.

Lu Chengyi frowned and looked away uncomfortably.

"Here."

A hand was stretched out in front of him.

The glass was seventy percent full, and it contained the white water that Lin Luoting had decided to give him when he said "no need" earlier.Lu Chengyi paused, and looked at the person delivering the water.The other party looked at him lazily with his chin propped up, and when he met his gaze, he tilted his head strangely, showing a little doubtful expression.

He took the water glass and took a sip, thinking to himself, this person is really not like a self-made company boss, but a pampered and willful young master.

There was another man's foot on his lap, and he held the cup after drinking water, his body posture was a little unnatural.

"I should go." Lu Chengyi said after looking at the wall clock on the wall.

Lin Luoting: "Let's go? Where are you going?" His brows were lightly folded, and even the joy of seeing human beings obediently drinking water just now was a little less.

Lu Chengyi didn't care whether he was happy or not, as if he was reporting work, "I finished trying out the role of a male third character yesterday, and I want to use these few days to go to the company to practice my lines and acting skills."

Lin Luoting pulled himself together, "Fang Yiming's play?"

Lu Chengyi: "Yes."

It turns out that Lu Chengyi hooked up with Fang Yiming yesterday?

In the novel, after the hero Lu Chengyi refused to be offered by the cannon fodder villain and was threatened, he was appreciated by Fang Yiming.

Lin Luoting was not afraid of Lu Chengyi's fire.He holds the opponent's weakness in his hand, and if Lu Chengyi is not recognized by the Lu family, he will hold the bargaining chip for victory.

As for what happened after Lu Chengyi was recognized back... There is still so much time, maybe he will already be tired of it by then.

Lin Luoting: "Have you received the notice?"

Lu Chengyi: "No."

That is to say, Lu Chengyi still doesn't know that he has been selected as the number one male.

Fortunately, he didn't dawdle for long, otherwise when Lu Chengyi received the news, the other party might not have agreed to his conditions so easily.

"You can go to class in the afternoon," Lin Luoting said, retracting the foot resting on the man's lap, putting on the slippers and getting up, "It's time to have lunch with me. After class in the afternoon, bring your luggage here."

The tone was undeniable, and it was obvious that he did not intend to bargain with Lu Chengyi.

Lu Chengyi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment. He had just signed into the company and had no friends. No one would care about his whereabouts.The family doesn't pay attention to the entertainment industry, don't worry for now, the only thing to consider is Zhou Miao.

It was Zhou Miao who gave him a hand when he was desperate for the high cost of treatment. He didn't want Zhou Miao to know about his relationship with Lin Luoting.

After thinking about how to deal with it, Lu Chengyi put down his book and cup and followed the people in front.

During Lin Luoting and Lu Chengyi's "conversation" in the study, Han Meimei has been dutifully waiting at the door of the study, in case the boss suddenly called.

The soundproofing of the study room is very good. Even if Han Meimei held her breath and pricked up her ears, she couldn't hear a word in it. After a long time, she got bored of waiting, so she found something for herself to pass the time.

So when Lin Luoting opened the door, he saw his low-profile housekeeper standing by the wall, holding a notebook and writing vigorously with his head bowed.

The door opened suddenly startled Han Meimei, she looked up at the boss in front of her, her steps were steady, her face was full of spring breeze...

Then look at Lu Chengyi, who was two steps behind, also walking steadily, but with a "depressed and gloomy" expression...

With a "snap", he hugged the notebook tightly against his chest.

The exaggerated reaction caught Lin Luoting's attention, and he glanced at the notebook, Lin Luoting asked casually, "What is it?"

Han Meimei smiled mischievously, but the stiff corners of her mouth did not allow her to make such difficult movements, so she could only shake her head with a stiff face, and changed the subject, "Mr. Lin, lunch is ready."

Based on her recent understanding of the boss, the boss rarely cares about things other than herself.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, the other party left without even pausing.

After Lu Chengyi also passed by, Han Meimei breathed a sigh of relief, put down the notebook, and on the white paper were her achievements just now.

I saw the words on the top of the notebook: The boss and his little lover—oneday

The following is a sketch, the background of the painting is in the study.The villain in the black coat blocked the villain in the off-white top in the corner of the bookshelf, propped up the wall with one hand and raised his chin with the other, making a handsome wall-dong.

Recalling the scene she saw just now, Han Meimei muttered in confusion, "Could it be reversed?"

No, then how can the man of A be a shou!

Checking the watch to confirm the time, she angrily added the last part of the content at the bottom of the paper: study play, which took 1 hour and 05 minutes.

Oh, the time is very long.

"Han Meimei." The person who came to the stairs suddenly stopped.

Han Meimei's heart almost stopped in fright, she raised her head suddenly, "Yes!"

Lin Luoting: "I asked you to revise the contract yesterday, and I'll bring it over after we finish lunch."

Han Meimei: "Okay, Mr. Lin."

After making sure that the other party would not turn around suddenly again, Han Meimei breathed out and touched her heart. The heart beat violently inside, as if it could pop out of her chest.

My little heart, I can't stand it again.

I made three dishes and one soup for lunch today, because I didn't say hello to the cooking uncle in advance, the rice was not cooked enough.

Lin Luoting said to Lu Chengyi: "I'll have someone cook a bowl of noodles for you."

Lu Chengyi shook his head, "No need."

Worried that the other party would have another white water incident, he said a few more words, "If I want to enter the group next, I will control my weight."

In his tone, he was very confident about his joining the group.

But this is indeed a certainty, Lin Luoting no longer insists.

The two turned to the small teahouse for Xiaoshi, and Han Meimei delivered the printed contract in due course.Pushing one of them to Lu Chengyi, Lin Luoting said, "Look."

Two years was almost the time when the Lu family discovered Lu Chengyi's existence.

Lu Chengyi was a little funny, a thing that was not honorable actually made it look like a serious cooperation and had to sign a contract.He flipped through the content, and the points he cared about were clearly marked in it, so he picked up a pen and signed his name.

The handwriting is flamboyant and phoenix dancing, with iron hooks and silver paintings.

Then he closed the pen cap, raised his eyes, and said forcefully, "I'm going to the company."

Present arrangements, not discussions and inquiries.

Lin Luoting met his aggressive gaze, met the man's gaze, only tilted his head and said, "Han Meimei, arrange a car to go to the company."

He took a step back, and the tension in Lu Chengyi's heart loosened a little. Just because he agreed to this contract doesn't mean that he will waste all his time on this person.

A low-key black Maybach soon stopped at the steps of Lin's front yard, and Lu Chengyi left after changing his shoes. He was neither arrogant nor polite from the beginning to the end.

She doesn't have the self-awareness that an adopted little lover should have.

Han Meimei watched the boss's reaction nervously.

Lin Luoting changed his shoes slowly, and said leisurely before going out, "Good-looking people always have some privileges, right?"

You are the boss and you are right.

The weather in early April was not too hot, Han Meimei didn't accompany him to the company, Lin Luoting stepped out in the sunshine, and when he walked to the parking place, he happened to see Lu Chengyi getting out of the car.

Well, Lu Chengyi realized that he was going to follow him to the company.

With a smile on her lips, Lin Luoting said, "Get in the car."

Lu Chengyi gave him a cold look.

The two sat side by side in the back seat, and the front baffle was raised to hide what was going on behind them.

Resting his head on the man's shoulder, Lin Luoting closed his eyes sleepily, and smelled a mixture of fir, rosin and a touch of rum in his breath.

The drowsiness became more and more drowsy.

The body under the ear was stretched like a rock, he patted the man's leg lightly, and said dissatisfiedly, "It's too hard, it's uncomfortable."

When did Lu Chengyi relax, Lin Luoting didn't know, he fell asleep after saying that.

When he woke up again, he heard a cautious male voice mixed with flattery, "Boss Lin, we're here."

Lin Luoting frowned and opened his eyes.He was the only one in the spacious back seat, leaning against the soft back of the seat, and the man next to him who was supposed to be a pillow was gone.

Rubbing his stiff neck, he reached out and pressed the button of the control panel.

The driver was sitting in the driver's seat, Lin Luoting said, "How long has he been walking?"

The driver replied cautiously, "About two to three minutes." After speaking, he glanced quickly from the rearview mirror, "He asked me to wake you up when he left."

What's going on here?

Lin Luoting nodded casually, and told the driver to pick him up after get off work, then get off and go to the company.

Secretary Lu Heng received the news and took the elevator down to pick him up, seeing Lin Luoting's current state, he couldn't help being stunned.

Mr. Lin has not been to the company since he fainted last week and returned home. This is the first time Lu Heng has seen him.

Mr. Lin has changed a lot, the most obvious is that he is younger and better-looking, he is dressed casually, and his appearance is not much different from some of the artists in the company who rely on their appearance for a living.

It's just that Mr. Lin is not a person who relies on his face to make a living. His comparison like this is to underestimate the other party.

Entering the president's office, Secretary Lu Heng, dressed as an abstinent elite, pushed his glasses, "Mr. Lin, there is a cooperation with Golden Scale Films that you need to see in person."

What kind of magic tricks did Boss Lin practice at home this week?I couldn't control my thoughts to diverge.

"Golden Scale Films?" It seemed familiar, Lin Luoting tapped on the table, "Let's not talk about that, go and adjust your personal contract and show me."

Secretary Lu: "What's your name?"

Lin Luoting: "Lu Chengyi, the manager is Zhou Miao."

Secretary Lu, who has a strong professional ability, quickly found the information Lin Luoting wanted, and stood in front of the desk, "Lu Chengyi, 20 years old, just signed in this month, a C-type contract, oh, he is still a high-achieving student in a T university, and his education is OK." Do it."

He subconsciously analyzed.

Lin Luoting: "Prepare an A sign for him."

"Boss Lin?" Secretary Lu was surprised.

He carefully looked at the materials in his hand, and there was not a single work, except for his face, what is so special about this Lu Chengyi that makes Mr. Lin look at him differently?

What he didn't know was that Lin Luoting had his eyes on Lu Chengyi's face.

On the computer screen was Lu Chengyi's clean passport photo. Lin Luoting: "He tried Fang Yiming's new play before, and if there is no accident, he will play the leading role. I will give him the contract when the news comes out."

Secretary Lu suddenly realized that he was interested in "potential", "Okay, Mr. Lin."

Then he quickly put a pile of piles of documents in front of Lin Luoting, raised his lips slightly, and Secretary Lu smiled kindly, "Mr. Lin, these are the documents that need your approval."

Lin Luoting: "..." Even the ID photo couldn't save him from his bad mood.

I can think about it myself.

However, Lu Chengyi was in class downstairs at this time, wishing not to see him forever.

Working in the office all afternoon with a low pressure, Lin Luoting felt better when he was about to get off work. He pushed aside his work and got up briskly. He was going to take his human home to warm the bed~
