It was not until the fourth day, when Bai Xi's bandages were removed, that Madam Lu allowed him to leave the house.

Only the old man knows how anxious he has been these few days. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as having trouble sleeping and eating. Coupled with Mrs. Lu's harsh words to him from time to time, this kind of life will almost force him to die a second time.

As soon as he went out, he went home directly, and pressed the doorbell with excitement. Since he was a child, he has never realized that he loves this home and his brother so much.

After a long time, the tight iron door remained motionless.

wipe!Is there no one at home! ?

When he started to knock on the door, a security guard came to stop him: "Sir, this family has moved out."

Bai Xi was stunned: "When did you move away?"

The security guard said: "It happened the day before yesterday. The servants have been dismissed. Are you a friend of his family? Didn't you know something happened to his family?"

Bai Xi: "...I know."

The security guard said: "Oh, the reporters have been blocking me for two days, and those reporters are really, his younger brother just died and kept coming to interview. I heard that Mr. Bai was really annoyed and went abroad."

Bai Xi was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Should there be a contact information for the property?"

The security guard said: "I'm not sure about this, you have to ask yourself."

Coming out of the property management office, Bai Xi's mood fell to the bottom.

Bai Kun left very cleanly, threw the house to the property management temporarily, paid three years of management fees, and did not leave any contact information.

Bai Xi stood under the paulownia tree at the door of his house in despair, staring blankly at the empty garden through the fence, where the calendula was still blooming in full bloom, unaware of the cruel reality that he had been left behind by his master.

Needless to say, Bai Kun must have gone to the United States, and his sister-in-law is there.

sister in law?Bai Xi's eyes lit up, he thought of who he could go to!

Stepping into the long-lost Zhou family's gate, Bai Xi had the illusion of a world away.Since his sister-in-law stayed abroad for a long time, he hardly visited Zhou's house again.

But the servants of the Zhou family are familiar with "he" now, and the servant who opened the door was very happy: "Wei Ran is here? Come in quickly, why haven't you come to play recently?"

After experiencing the atmosphere of Lu's family, and Bai Xi's transposition hypothesis guess, Lu Weiran must like Zhou's family very much, and also loves Zhou Xing's house and black?

The scene of meeting Zhou Xing for the last time a few days ago is still vivid in his memory. Zhou Xing, who always looks cool and domineering, has already penetrated into Bai Xi's consciousness.

So when he saw Brother Sharp's version of Zhou Xing walking down the stairs, Bai Xi was shocked.This messy hairstyle, unshaven face, and bloodshot eyes are too cool!Hero, are you too involved in masturbation?

Zhou Xing ignored his dumbfoundedness, took a can of beer from the refrigerator, and asked, "What do you drink? Juice or milk?"

Bai Xi said dryly, "The juice is ready."

Zhou Xing gave him a bottle of juice, and drank half a can of beer himself.

Holding the juice in his hand, Bai Xi didn't know what to say, so it was too strange to rashly ask for his uncle's phone number.

Zhou Xingdao: "I haven't seen you for a while, what have you been playing recently?"

Of course the Lu family will not publicize Lu Weiran's suicide everywhere.

Bai Xi vaguely felt that Zhou Xing treated Lu Weiran like a child, and replied: "I'm a little uncomfortable, I'm resting at home."

Zhou Xing didn't ask any further questions, and said, "Oh, pay attention to your body."

Bai Xi decided to lay the groundwork politely first: "Why didn't you go to work today?"

Zhou Xing took another sip of beer and said indifferently, "I don't want to go."

Bai Xi: "..." How should I continue QAQ?

He quickly changed his tactics, and it was better to go straight to the point: "Actually, I came to you because I want to ask you for help. I want to buy two paintings. I heard that your uncle is a gallery owner. Can you..."

Zhou Xingdao: "I can't."

There was a momentary silence, and Bai Xi wanted to hit the wall in embarrassment. The way the Lord Dark Lord communicates has been the same for ten years, and it was like this ten years ago!Dare you make a difference!dare!

He tried to turn around and said: "It's not that you have to come forward, you can give me his contact information, and I will contact him directly."

Zhou Xing emptied his beer, opened his eyes and said nonsense, "I don't have his contact information."

This is a clear rejection, Bai Xi understands too well.When he was struggling under the shadow of Zhou Xing a few years ago, he had already come to a conclusion: there is nothing Zhou Xing couldn't do in this world, if he refused you, it must be because he didn't want to do it.

At this moment, Bai Xi realized that Zhou Xing was gradually not quite right.

He frowned tightly, pressed one hand on his temple, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his lips were a little pale. Coupled with his own haggard face, he looked extraordinarily creepy.

Bai Xi asked strangely, "What's wrong with you?"

The soda can in Zhou Xing's hand was almost crushed, he pointed to the tea table, and said in a low voice but hastily: "There is a bottle of medicine in the lower drawer, bring it for me."

Bai Xi hurriedly went to get the medicine as he said, and when he handed it to him, he subconsciously glanced at it, and immediately widened his eyes: "This..."

Zhou Xing snatched it with his hands, his hand was a little unsteady when he opened the medicine bottle, he took two pills out but stopped.

Bai Xi looked at it blankly, and asked after a while: "You want to use it to relieve pain? Headache?"

Zhou Xing put the medicine back into the bottle, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, it will be fine soon." This sentence was more like saying to himself.

Bai Xi said: "But..."

Zhou Xing stood up, with a weak expression, and said: "I want to sleep for a while, you go back." After speaking, he ignored him and went upstairs without looking back.

Leaving Zhou's house in a daze, Bai Xi was a little worried about Zhou Xing, the medicine bottle was clearly labeled "Martin Lidol".

He knew what it was, having co-directed an anti-drug public service film when he was still in film school.Methidine lidol, commonly known as pethidine, is usually used in clinical anesthesia and pain relief, and long-term use is easy to form dependence.In other words, improper use will approximate drugs.

What happened to Zhou Xing?Actually need to use pethidine for pain relief?

Soon, Lu Jinrong fulfilled his promise and took Bai Xi to Rongyi Film Company to let him meet the teacher.

Bai Xi never expected that Gao Siyuan would be the teacher Lu Jinrong found for him.

Gao Siyuan himself is the director of the legendary "Yeluzi". When he was young, he wrote poetry and prose for more than ten years, but when he was [-] years old, he suddenly switched careers to eat movies.

Bai Xi is different, he can be regarded as a well-known family, his teacher is a well-deserved master in the domestic film industry, and has made many works that have won awards at international film festivals.The academic Bai Xi has always been very contemptuous of this director Gao Siyuan who is more than ten years older than him.

In addition, Gao Siyuan was shortlisted for best director with him at this year's Kimber Awards, and finally won this award.On top of his contempt, he added a bit of jealousy that he didn't want to admit.

In short, he was quite dissatisfied with the teacher Lu Jinrong had chosen for him.

But it seems that Gao Siyuan is even more dissatisfied that the newly released best director came to teach him this real "wild way" who can only draw a few cartoons.

After Lu Jinrong handed him over to Gao Siyuan, Director Gao threw him out in a blink of an eye: "Comics are just talk on paper, but movies are real. Young Master Lu, go and learn the basics of photography for a few days."

The prickly-haired young man who was cleaning the lens looked surprised: "Huh? Let me teach you photography?"

Bai Xi grimaced, and the director Gao's assistant who sent him here ran to the young man with prickly head, muttered something, and the young man nodded reluctantly.

The assistant smiled at Bai Xi, "He's Zuo Jie, you may have heard his name before."

Bai Xi's expression softened, and he said, "I know, he was shortlisted for the Golden Cypress Award this year." But he didn't win the award.

After the assistant left, Zuo Jie scratched his head and said, "I really don't know how to teach you."

Bai Xi smiled and said, "You don't need to teach me specially, just take me with you when you work, and I can learn while watching."

Zuo Jie immediately relaxed: "That's fine, what should I call you? Young Master Lu?"

Bai Xi said: "Lu Weiran, you can call me Weiran."

He has seen the shortlisted works of this photographer, and he is skilled and has his own ideas. He is a very good representative of young photographers.

Moreover, Zuo Jie's shooting style was also very to his liking. At that time, Bai Xi even had the idea of ​​looking for Zuo Jie to cooperate.

But it was the first time we met.

Bai Xi is the darling of the media. He studied under a master and debuted as a teenager. He has an outstanding appearance, but his sexuality is a mystery. His whole body is full of hot spots.

Moreover, the director is inherently more influential than the cameraman, so even if he has the same experience of being shortlisted for the Kimber Award and then failed, Zuo Jie and Bai Xi can be regarded as grassroots.

After making arrangements here, Bai Xi went back to Lu Jinrong to report the situation, and when he entered the office, he was surprised to find that Zhou Xing was actually there.

Lu Jinrong saw him come in, and motioned him to sit down beside him and wait.

Zhou Xing's appearance was much better than when he saw him that day, at least he was clean-shaven, but the haggardness caused by lack of sleep could still be seen between his eyebrows and eyes.

Lu Jinrong sighed: "After all, it's just friends. It's natural for you to feel sad when something like this happens, but you still have to look forward. The dead are gone, so mourning is the best thing to do."

Zhou Xing: "Yes, I know."

Bai Xi blinked quickly, besides him, are there other deceased people recently?

Lu Jinrong: "I think your condition is still not very good. If you are really uncomfortable, don't hold on. You can let work go first. Your body is the most important thing."

Zhou Xing: "It's much better, the chairman is worried."

Lu Jinrong: "In addition, if you have any ideas, you should communicate with me in time. You have been doing very well in the past six months since you came to EM. I like you very much. Do you understand what I mean?"

Zhou Xing nodded expressionlessly.

Lu Jinrong: "It's nothing else, next Tuesday's board meeting, I hope to see you back to your best condition."

Bai Xi looked at Zhou Xing's back as he opened the door and went out, but when he turned his head, he saw Lu Jinrong's unclear gaze.His heart skipped a beat, Lu Jinrong probably already knew that Lu Weiran committed suicide by cutting his wrists for Zhou Xing.

Lu Jinrong asked, "How did you go with the teacher?"

Bai Xi said: "Fortunately, Director Gao asked me to learn basic photography first."

Lu Jinrong paused and said, "Wei Ran, Zhou Xing is not suitable for you."

Bai Xi: "..." So direct!

Lu Jinrong said: "He is too stubborn, he can't get out. I know you think he is very good. It's not that grandpa wants to pour cold water on you. No matter how much you do for him, it won't be of much use."

Bai Xi said calmly, "Grandpa, I don't like him anymore."

Lu Jinrong glanced at him calmly, and Bai Xi felt that he didn't believe his words at all.

"I won't ask any more about your juniors." Lu Jinrong laughed, "But as I said earlier, no matter who you like, grandpa will support you."

Bai Xi was a little surprised, and a warm feeling rose in his heart. Lu Jinrong's love and protection for his grandson were somewhat sincere.
