All Dongsheng's activities were suspended, and the crew of "Capture the King" was also affected and the filming was suspended. The originally highly anticipated prospect became gloomy.

Dongsheng's senior staff has changed a lot. Except for the old and cunning Liang Jiping, who still sit firmly on the high ground, the president and other personnel have been replaced, and the board of directors has also undergone a major shake-up. Few people survived.

There were many changes at the top, and many artists at the bottom were also implicated. Many old cases were uncovered, entertainment magazines frequently broke news, and Dongsheng's first-line artists were the first to bear the brunt. The entire entertainment circle was violently turbulent.

The troubled film star He Rong was of course among them, and before Li Yibei could teach him a lesson by boiling the frog in warm water, the overwhelming scandal had already left the onlookers dumbfounded.

"Capturing the King" flowed as a matter of course. It was so high that it was boasted before, but now it has fallen so badly.

Not only was the director depressed and angry with no place to vent, but Li Yibei also had nothing to do with it. He had no chance to rectify his name, and he didn't get any money. It was like a sudden disaster.

"Can you give me an explanation? How did the news about He Rong get out? Now the movie is a waste of time, and the things that have been in preparation for more than half a year will be gone if they don't, please give me some comfort, boss." Li Yibei knocked Open Liang Jiping's office, sit down on the white leather sofa, and look at the decoration of the president's office.

Liang Jiping was undoubtedly the biggest winner of this accident. He was not dismissed, and he was promoted to the highest position justifiably.

"I know you put a lot of thought into this movie, and I value it, but you know, a lot of things are out of my control. Where there is competition, there is sacrifice. We are just sacrifices to a certain extent. Compared with those Artists who are directly sentenced to death, we are even luckier. Aim at the direction and get what you want. As long as I am still here, you will not be buried."

"Should I thank myself for meeting a Bole like you? A few words can make me speechless, but you haven't explained why I didn't know any news in advance, otherwise I wouldn't be so at a loss." 》I really expected a lot, so I'm not reconciled to ruining it for no apparent reason. He Rong's commercial value is still very high, wouldn't it be a pity to deal with it like this?"

"I can't answer the specifics. These are decisions made by the higher-ups. He Rong may be a famous figure in the entertainment industry, but to some people, it's just a tool to make money. It's normal to be on the wrong team and be eliminated. "

"OK, I understand, but I hope that next time I won't be the one who is out of the game for no reason. I am very grateful for your support all the way, but I also hope to be trusted."

"Don't worry, in Dongsheng, there is absolutely no one else who makes me pay more attention." Liang Jiping smiled, a little unpredictable, "There will be a press conference on the weekend, and Dongsheng's new behind-the-scenes boss will come to the scene. Your curiosity and doubts may find answers."

"So mysterious? Why do I feel like I've been calculated."

The weekend press conference was held at the resort hotel. Many reporters arrived at the scene early in the morning. Liang Jiping presided over the meeting, but the long-awaited master did not arrive.

Li Yibei was squeezed into a corner by a group of reporters, and he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart, his sloppy expression seemed a little absent-minded, and he was lost in the crowd.

Because the media previously rendered Dongsheng's black-related background too subtle, the press conference was full of vigilance.

When the people who had been waiting for a long time finally came late, Li Yibei could only see clearly the people who walked into the venue from the gaps in the crowd.

Walking in the front is a young man who still has traces of his youth. He is wearing a neat formal attire. His slender and elegant figure comes into view. Before he has to see his face clearly, a name has already popped into his mind——Lan Shu .

Li Yibei bit his knuckles subconsciously, always feeling that something was wrong, and he couldn't explain this abrupt reality.

It just feels absurd.

Li Yibei stared at Lan Shu from a distance across the crowd, his ears ignored the words uttered from his thin lips, and his eyes wandered back and forth on the gentle and smiling gentle features, trying to find out what the blank time of separation was like something happened.

The reporters below were no less surprised than him, because they were too surprised, the previously preset questions were disrupted, and the topic center completely shifted to Lan Shu's mysterious background identity.

Before the show ended, Li Yibei left the seat.

Walking out of the hotel, the cold wind after the winter solstice blows head-on, sweeping away the last bit of temperature from the body, even the beating heart seems to slow down, and the coldness soaks into the bone marrow bit by bit.

He walked for a long time, with his hands in his pockets absent-mindedly, and the slow-moving car beside him honked a few times before he heard it.

"Yi Bei." Lan Shu called him out, with a long-lost intimacy and a handsome face.He was still wearing the same clothes from the venue, but his face changed instantly as if he was familiar with it, a little cold, a little gentle, and an impenetrable depth.

Li Yibei glanced at him, ignored him, and walked straight forward.

"Aren't you happy to see me? Are you still angry?" Lan Shu smiled briskly, and followed him step by step in the car, "Get in the car first, okay? I didn't let you know because I wanted to surprise you. I am very happy to see you, this is from the bottom of my heart.”

"It's fun playing with me?" Li Yibei stopped, turned his head and looked at Lan Shu, he was so awkward that he didn't even want to give him a positive face, "This surprise is too big, I can't bear it."

"Are you really angry?" Lan Shu still laughed, it was rare to see Li Yibei looking angry and awkward, trying to pretend to be serious, but he still couldn't help laughing, looking at him seriously.

"I'm not angry. Why am I angry when you have a bright future and your clothes are back?" Li Yibei said indifferently and self-deprecatingly, but no matter how it sounds, it sounds like willful anger.

"Well, can you get in the car first? I will give you answers to all your questions. We have time to talk slowly."

Lan Shu opened the car door and asked him to get in the car with a very low posture.

Li Yibei resisted Lan Shu's persistence, got into the car and put on his seat belt before asking, "The press conference is over so soon?"

"It wasn't a matter for me to appear on stage. Liang Jiping will take care of everything. Do you still live in the old place? I'll send you back first."

"No, I changed to a bigger house."

"Well, I kind of miss the old days."

Lan Shu still had a smiling expression, he smiled a lot today, and the sense of disobedience brought about by the change of identities after the two met again was almost non-existent.

When they got to the bottom of the apartment, Lan Shu naturally followed Li Yibei upstairs.

After Lan Shu entered the door, he only casually looked around and keenly found traces of other people in the room, "Is there anyone else living here?"

"Well, you know him too, Shao Yi, he lives with me."

Li Yibei greeted Lan Shu to sit down, took off his coat and felt a lot more relaxed, "Your second brother brought you back, didn't you make things difficult for you?"

"Fortunately, he was entrusted by my father to take care of me. Even if he just wanted to use me, he would do it very well. Besides, his opponent has always been Lancheng. Now that Lancheng is dead, he doesn't want to give anyone a reason to talk, so he just put me on the table. It came out. I don’t count as anything in the Lan family, and I’m not as glamorous as you see.” Lan Shu explained sincerely and straightforwardly, with a relaxed expression, “I’ve said that I’ll explain all my questions. Do you have any other questions? Do you want to ask?"

"I trust you, so you only need to answer one question. Is it because of you that Liang Jiping takes care of me?"

Lan Shu deliberately teased him, and asked, "You care?"

"Yes, I really care. I hate other people interfering in my affairs." Li Yibei held the water glass and stroked the cold glass with his fingertips, his tone serious.

"It is indeed an accident that I met you today. Liang Jiping is very capable and has his own opinions. If he values ​​you unconditionally, it only means that he really appreciates you, so you don't have to think so much."

"Then what have you been up to for more than a year? Why haven't I heard from you at all?"

"I'm not busy with anything. My two elder brothers fought fiercely. Many businesses in the family were left unattended. Lan Ze forced me to learn management. I am usually very strict. Dongsheng is an industry under the name of Lancheng. Once he dies, those shareholders will take care of him." I started to move around, and if it wasn’t for Lan’s aggressive methods, I might not even have the chance to come to Beijing. Now Dongsheng is in a mess, there are many difficult problems, and I can’t recover all of a sudden, and I will have a headache in the future.”

Li Yibei smiled helplessly, "Your second brother is not too mean, but too vicious. It is not easy for many artists. Even as a pawn, this ending is too miserable."

"You like working in this circle very much?" Lan Shu asked him.In his impression Li Yibei is not a very emotional person, he cares more about his own senses and interests, he is even a little selfish.

It's not quite his character to say such things.

"I don't particularly like it. I just want to do what I can, not to mention making money. It would be great. If it weren't for this kind of accident, the movie "Capturing the King" should make a lot of money. After all, I was also attracted by your family." One from Doukeng."

"Sorry, maybe I can make it up to you later."

Lan Shu cooperated with Li Yibei to make jokes, and the atmosphere in this casual conversation turned into the once-familiar no-scrupulousness.

In the evening when Li Yibei was cooking, Lan Shu chatted with him and helped him.

Shao Yi came back a bit late, before he entered the door, he heard the sound of talking and laughing, and then he saw Lan Shu at the dining table.

"Just waiting for you to serve dinner, the food is almost cold." Li Yibei called Shao Yi to come over for dinner.

"Long time no see, Shao Yi." Lan Shu greeted with a polite smile.

Shao Yi froze for a few seconds before forcing a smile, "Hello."

He had passed the age of pretending to be fearless, learning to replace the mask of indifference with a more effective smile.

But no matter what kind of mask, there is real fear hidden inside.

The dishes on the dinner table were too much for the three of them. Shao Yi ate with his head down all the time, hardly saying a word. Every time Lan Shu opened his mouth, he would nervously worry about hearing the name "Cao Chen".

He discovered a strange fact that time did not dilute the influence Cao Chen left on him, and even became a brand in another more profound form due to the accumulation and growth of years.

Unforgettable, more terrifying than pure hatred.

The meal was a bit dull because of Shao Yi's abnormality.

Li Yibei sent Lan Shu downstairs, and when he was about to board the car, Lan Shu asked, "Have you been taking care of Shao Yi?"

"It may be more accurate to say that he takes care of me. He is very mature and sensible, but he can't deal with emotional problems. Why, do you have other things?"

"Cao Chen completed four years of courses ahead of schedule and fulfilled the agreement with his father. It is estimated that he will be able to return to China this winter vacation. You may not be able to imagine how much he cares about Shao Yi. I know Cao Chen's character very well, and he is very possessive. , has a paranoid and violent personality, and can easily hurt others, so you should be careful when you don't get along with Shao Yi."

"It's exactly the same as Li Yuege's tone," Li Yibei raised his eyebrows indifferently, "I've heard this many times, Shao Yi is not just a friend to me, I can also treat him Paranoid and caring, why alienate him just because of a Cao Chen? Shao Yi also needs more friends."

Lan Shu comforted him, "I don't care about their affairs, I just don't want you to be hurt."

Li Yibei smiled, "I'm not fragile, not that fragile."
