Long night streamer

A respectful Filipino maid led Bai Hui to the restaurant on the south side of the mansion.

Zhou Ze always got up late, and it was almost ten o'clock at this time, so he started to eat breakfast.I don't know if it was because of the light, but Bai Hui felt that he was much thinner than when we met in the hospital last time.

On a long table, most of it was exposed to the sunshine after the snow, but Zhou Ze sat in the shadow of the upper seat, slowly peeling a boiled egg.

"Sit." Without raising his eyes, he took off the last piece of eggshell and put the egg in a white porcelain rimmed dish.It seems that there is no plan to eat right away.

Bai Hui sat down as promised, and the servant standing beside him stepped forward and asked, "What would you like to drink, Young Master Bai?"

Bai Hui said, "No need, thank you."

Zhou Ze looked at him across the table, but said to the servant, "Give Young Master Bai a cup of coffee."

As he said that, he smiled coldly, "You young people like coffee more than tea, right?" ——The consultation was fake, anyway, Bai Hui had to drink whatever he asked Bai Hui to drink.

Bai Hui couldn't help thinking in his heart, maybe he should be thankful that Zhou Langye went overseas early and lived freely. If he lived under Zhou Ze's control for many years, it would be such a suffocating thing.

Steaming coffee, a pot of coffee mate, and cookies were brought up together, and placed on Bai Hui's table one by one.

Bai Hui didn't touch the glass, and sat with a cold expression, waiting for Zhou Ze to talk to him.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Ze chatted with him meaninglessly, and even talked about the movies he had made, but he didn't mention anything about the Zhou family and the Bai family.

Full of doubts, Bai Hui sat at the long table for half an hour until Zhou Ze got up first and said, "That's it, thank you for coming to chat with me."

Bai Hui couldn't hide his astonishment now, Zhou Ze walked up to him and said, "The driver is outside, ask him to take you back."

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the restaurant, leaving Bai Hui and the servant who brought him coffee relatively speechless.

The servant was very quick to do things. While Bai Hui was in a daze, he had already taken the down jacket that Bai Hui had just taken off, and stood beside him with a bow, waiting to put it on for Bai Hui.

Bai Hui was depressed by the atmosphere of Zhou's house, stood up, took his clothes, said "thank you", and walked out of the restaurant quickly.

The commercial vehicle had already parked outside the mansion, and before Bai Hui approached, the driver jumped out of the driver's seat and went around the front of the car to open the door for him, looking more attentive than when he left home just now.

Bai Hui was inexplicably angry, and he didn't know who he was angry with, maybe he was angry that he thought things too easily, and Zhou Ze put him on the line again.

If he thought of the phone call Tao Zhi made to him, Bai Hui roughly guessed Zhou Ze's intentions.

Zhou Ze may have also figured out Zhou Langye's way, knowing that he was secretly investigating himself, so he planned to call Bai Hui to Zhou's house, and dragged Bai Hui into the water.Even if Bai Hui was only forced to have a clueless breakfast with him and chat about some irrelevant topics, in the eyes of outsiders, Bai Hui had already become a pawn in Zhou Ze's hands.Whenever Bai Hui and Zhou Langye had a little suspicion, or Zhou Ze made some moves, Zhou Langye could easily be made suspicious of it.

The hard-won relationship between Bai Hui and Zhou Langye could not withstand scrutiny and scrutiny, and it would be broken sooner or later.

Bai Hui didn't know if there was any basis for his guess. After all, he didn't have enough experience to deal with this kind of situation, so he could only deduce based on the existing clues that this might be the reason.

When he arrived at the hospital and waited to get the medicine, Bai Hui fell into a panic that he couldn't help himself.

He used many methods to persuade himself to calm down, and repeatedly recalled the two weeks he spent with Zhou Langye, how gentle and considerate he was and how deeply affectionate he was.But there is always another Bai Hui who jumps out of nowhere and warns him that Zhou Langye is suspicious of him, and he hasn't touched him all this time, maybe because he is worried.

Bai Hui took the medicine and sat in the car back to the villa in a daze.It wasn't until this moment that he realized that he was so vulnerable. He imagined all kinds of worst possibilities, and Bai Hui in every situation had an indisputable ending.

He was tired of this feeling of restlessness, always waiting for the knife to fall, and he didn't dare to think about whether Zhou Langye held him in the arms during those nights when they shared the same bed.

When he returned to the villa, listening to Aunt Qin chattering with him, and just received a call from Zhou Langye saying that he would go home for dinner tonight, Bai Hui suddenly had a ridiculous idea.

He thought, since he couldn't explain it anymore, he might as well just settle the matter.Let Zhou Langye be completely disappointed in himself, Bai Hui can also give up from now on.

In the afternoon, he received a message from Zhou Langye, saying that he had returned to Pingzhou and was going to hold a summary meeting in the company before returning home.But this time Bai Hui asked Zhou Langye the exact time when he arrived home for the first time.

About 10 minutes later, Zhou Langye replied to him, "The meeting ends at about [-] o'clock, and I will be home before [-] o'clock."

Bai Hui intentionally chose the time around Zhou Langye's return to enter the study.

He had never entered this room alone before.He knew that several public spaces in this villa, such as the kitchen and living room, were equipped with surveillance cameras, but not in the study.

So if you want to find out what he did here, it's like going to Zhou's house to chat with Zhou Ze this morning, in short: I don't know.

It gets dark early in the winter afternoon.Just after five o'clock, the sun sank from the mountains and forests.

Bai Hui turned on the light, sat on the sofa and read the script on his mobile phone.He knew every word on it, but he couldn't read all of them together.He couldn't help but think about Zhou Langye's reaction after he knew that he had met Zhou Ze and found out that he had entered the study privately. Being able to put the phone aside and allow myself to fall into a state of overthinking that leaves my mind blank.

After about 10 minutes, he vaguely heard the sound of a car approaching the villa.From the angle of the front door, you should be able to see the lighted windows on the side of the study.Bai Hui stood up nervously, ready to face Zhou Langye face to face.

What he didn't expect was that the car drove away quickly, but no one entered the house for a long time.

Bai Hui waited in the study for almost 10 minutes, but still couldn't hear the door opening downstairs.He began to be a little confused about the situation, so he kept the lights on in the study room, walked to the guest room on the same floor but facing different directions, through the window that could have a panoramic view of the front yard, he saw Zhou Langye holding a The cake box, holding a half cigarette in the other hand, stood by the garage door wearing a coat.

The expression on Zhou Langye's face was calm, a cigarette was almost finished before he slowly raised his head and glanced in the direction of the study, as if he was waiting for something.

Bai Hui had a vague idea in his heart, shining like a beam of warm light on the coldest and darkest angle in his heart, but he couldn't believe it.

It was freezing cold outside, Bai Hui couldn't bear to see Zhou Langye standing outside blowing the air, turned back to the study and turned off the lights, then slowly walked down the stairs and into the kitchen.Sure enough, within a few minutes, there was a knock at the front door.

Zhou Langye carried the cake and followed the sound into the kitchen before taking off his coat.

Bai Hui was fiddling with the bowls and chopsticks. Zhou Langye smiled and put the cake on the counter, saying, "I bought the hazelnut flavor you like, and I queued up for 10 minutes at the entrance of the store."

"Give me a kiss, my wife." The man said again, with a gentle expression on his face, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Bai Hui felt a little throbbing in his heart, feeling that he had made a mistake earlier, a person like Zhou Langye couldn't be satisfied with anything, and there was no point in acting with him here.

But he hadn't recovered from the overly disturbed emotion, so he remained silent, leaned in and kissed Zhou Langye's face, and was immediately picked up by the man and hugged him again.

"Hui Er, you are so warm." Zhou Langye dawdled with him, as if trying to absorb the warmth from his body.

Bai Hui's voice was weak, and he asked him, "Didn't you go home directly after getting out of the car? Why are you so cold?"

Zhou Langye hugged him, Bai Hui couldn't see the expression on the man's face, he only heard him say, "I answered a phone call before entering the door, and I came in after I finished speaking at the door." ——He just calmly defended With Bai Hui's decency, he told a lie.

After hugging for about half a minute, he let go of Bai Hui and suggested cutting a piece of cake first.Bai Hui said he wanted to eat first, so Zhou Langye went to wash his hands, wiped the liquid soap and said, "Yesterday, the heat from the rice cooker hit your hand, let me do it."

Zhou Lang Ye served the rice, and Zhou Lang Ye peeled the shrimp for him.Bai Hui's appetite was not very good, he ate very slowly, and gradually calmed down when he saw the same old man sitting across from him.

After the meal, he said he wanted to try the cake, Zhou Langye got up to unpack the box.

While Zhou Langye was cutting the cake with the knife provided by the store, Bai Hui hugged him from behind.

He buried his face on the man's back, and his voice sounded muffled and soft, "You know all about it... you know that I went to Zhou's house in the morning, you know that I was in the study just now, why have you been holding back?" Do not ask?"

This time, Bai Hui misunderstood Zhou Langye.

Zhou Langye didn't doubt him, didn't guard against him, and didn't mean to make things difficult for him.

Zhou Langye was only worried about Bai Hui's safety, afraid that he would be deceived or hijacked by Zhou Ze, so he secretly intervened in this matter.He didn't dare to ask Bai Hui reluctantly, and he also made plans for Bai Hui to take back the Bai family's property.In short, Zhou Langye's idea is very simple, let Bai Hui do whatever Bai Hui wants to do, even if it is not good for him, Zhou Langye is willing to accept it.

He sandwiched the table knife between two pieces of cake, and then felt that Bai Hui's arm was trembling, so he said to him, "The password of the study safe is 072526. I don't have anything to ask you, but you can Come and ask me anytime."

The air was quiet for a few seconds, and then Bai Hui said slowly with a nasal voice, "You are stupid... I sat in the study and read the script for half an hour."

Zhou Langye wasn't the only one who was stupid, Bai Hui wasn't that smart either.

Zhou Langye froze for a moment, quickly figured out the whole thing, and turned to face Bai Hui.

Bai Hui's eye sockets were a little red, and the day-long cranky thoughts messed up his mind.He said incoherently, "I was forcibly taken to Zhou's house by the driver..."

"Uncle Zhou and I chatted a bunch of meaningless things, and then I guessed what he wanted to do."

"I was afraid that you wouldn't believe me, so I went into the study with broken jars..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Langye would not let him finish, so he leaned over and kissed him.

The two of them leaned against the dining table and kissed for a long time amidst the aroma of the hazelnut cake.When Zhou Langye moved away from Bai Hui's lips a little bit, said to him, "I will not, never doubt you", then held his face in his hands, and kissed him deeply again, Bai Hui was so clear for the first time. Feel the persistence from the other side.

In the intertwined atmosphere, he thought of the figure standing under the eaves smoking a cigarette—carrying a fresh cake, calmly lighting a cigarette, and waiting outside the door without making a sound.Waiting for a lover who doesn't know what to do, but still decides to smile and enter the house to meet him.

It turns out that Zhou Langye, like Bai Hui, wants to inject more courage into this love that is always on thin ice and trembling, and believes that it can love to the end from now on.

The efficiency of Zhou Ze's implementation of the plan was so fast that not only Bai Hui was unprepared, but even Zhou Langye was unexpected.

Since Bai Hui only has the last day of vacation left, he will have a road show following the release of the new movie.Zhou Langye originally planned to wait for Bai Hui to start work, and then slowly mediate with Zhou Ze.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, Bai Hui, who was packing his luggage, received a call from his mother, Tong Xin.

Since Zhou Langye was injured and admitted to the hospital, Bai Hui never went back to Bai's house.He had already decided not to use Zhou Ze's tricks, and he had no intention of asking Zhou Langye for shares in the Bai family. When he answered his mother's phone call, he felt a little guilty.

Tong Xin's voice sounded normal. First, she told Bai Hui that she had just sent Bai Ling and Wan Bide to the airport in the morning—even though the wedding was canceled for some reason, Bai Ling decided to complete the honeymoon trip as usual.Then he asked Bai Hui what was his plan for the evening.

Bai Hui himself had nothing important to do, and hearing what Tong Xin meant, he wanted him to go home for a meal, so he went along with the flow and said that he was free at night.

Tong Xin's tone immediately seemed to be a little happier, and she really asked him to go home to accompany his parents.

This time, Bai Hui and Zhou Langye were going to reconcile, and they lived in the villa in the middle of the mountain for two weeks, but they didn't hear any objection from their parents.

After hanging up on Tong Xin's phone, Bai Hui called Zhou Langye again, explaining that he wanted to have dinner with his parents.

Zhou Langye originally planned to only work until noon this day and leave work early, and he had already booked a movie and a hotel, and was just waiting to bring Bai Hui for a serious date.

But when Bai Hui said that he wanted to go back to Bai's house, Zhou Langye couldn't find any reason to object. He took the phone and thought about it, and told Bai Hui that there are a lot of famous wines and luxury goods in the basement of the villa, so you can choose some Take it home as a gift.

Bai Hui's light laughter came to Zhou Langye's ears through the radio waves, "Oh, I won't be afraid of embarrassing you if you say it. Aunt Qin told me almost the same thing just now."

The atmosphere was very good, the day was long, and they did not miss the half-day parting. They chatted a few more words through the mobile phone, and finally agreed that Zhou Lang would send a car to pick Bai Hui home at night.Before hanging up the phone, Zhou Langye thought that the night's date was gone, and he still felt a little regretful, so he said to Bai Hui, "Come back early at night, and give me more time."

——The appearance of the playboy in the past is gone, and his most cherished lover is on the tip of his heart.

Eight years ago, it was Bai Hui who begged Zhou Langye outside Zhou's house to watch another movie before parting.Now that their identities have been switched, Zhou Langye hopes that Bai Hui won't be home too late, and that he still has time to watch movies together.

Bai Hui went to the city early in the afternoon, and Tong Xin proposed to have afternoon tea in a newly opened restaurant, and then go home for dinner together.Bai Hui had no objection and arrived at the agreed place on time.

Tong Xin booked a small box near the indoor garden, and was happily talking on a video call with a friend.Bai Hui had already walked behind her, and she only realized her son's presence through the camera, so she hurriedly ended the call and called Bai Lirui who was strolling in the garden.

Bai Hui and his parents sat down around the round table, the waiter brought hot tea and snacks, and they started chatting.

First I talked about Bai Ling and Wan Bide's marriage, and then Tong Xin mentioned that since Bai Hui went to the capital, he has lost contact with his parents, and he is not the caring child he was back then.

Tong Xin didn't mention those past events at all, and they didn't seem to know about the crimes that Bai Hui suffered at the hands of Zhou Langye back then.

Bai Hui did not refute, but only promised to contact his family more in the future.Then they talked about Bai Hui's career development. Tong Xin told Bai Hui that a boss with strong financial resources wanted to sign Bai Hui recently, and he was also a friend they knew, so he urged Bai Hui to consider it.

As he spoke, he took out a business card with "Qimai Entertainment" printed on it in bronzing fonts, and below it was a two-character name: Cao Xun.

Bai Hui did have a little impression of the name Cao Xun. It seemed that he was one of the executive producers of a movie he had acted in.

Bai Hui smiled helplessly, and asked Tong Xin, how could he befriend such a person whose age and industry were far from theirs.

Bai Lirui said from the side that they are all natives of Pingzhou and have mutual friends.

The topic then turned to the matter of Cao Xun wanting to sign Bai Hui.Bai Hui seldom talked about his acting career with his parents, so he could only patiently explain that at present, he already had a contract with Qiao Zhen's studio, so he couldn't sign another one.

When Tong Xin heard this, she couldn't help feeling a little anxious, saying that she had previously accepted Cao Xun's invitation instead of Bai Hui, but now she suddenly regretted saying no, which would hurt the friendship among friends too much.

Bai Hui heard that there was something in her words, put the cup in his hand aside, and asked her, "Mom, what do you want me to do, why don't you just say it."

Bai Hui is transparent in his work. Now that he has met parents like Tong Xin and Bai Lirui, he doesn't have much hope. However, if they are not at the worst level, he thinks it's okay to help.

So Tong Xin called Cao Xun in front of him, turned on the release button, and put the phone between herself and Bai Hui.Bai Hui politely called Cao Xun "Brother Cao" on the phone, and then listened to Cao Xun pouring a lot of confusion into him, saying that Bai Hui's acting skills were unmatched among the post-95 niche students , He also said that he had wanted to sign him for a long time, but suffered from no way out.

Anyway, in the end Bai Hui had no choice but to stop him, and asked him politely and rationally, "Brother Cao, my manager is Qiao Zhen, you should have known it earlier, right?"

When Cao Xun was blocked, he took a step back and said, "Xiaobai, when will you be free? I have a script for investment here, and I want to meet and chat with you."

Before Bai Hui said anything, Tong Xin said first, "Xiao Hui is free now, Mr. Cao is not off work yet, right?"

Things were going too fast, and Bai Hui was a little confused. He wanted to talk about it another day, but he didn't expect that Cao Xun's side would respond quickly, and said, "Of course it's okay, we'll see you now."

Cao Xun's Qimai Entertainment is headquartered in the capital, and there is a branch in Pingzhou. He is in Pingzhou this week.The company's address is very close to the hotel where Bai Hui is located. Surrounding the viaduct of the CBD in the urban area, it is divided into east and west exits, and the drive takes only ten minutes.

It was not yet five o'clock in the afternoon, and Tong Xin looked very considerate of Bai Hui, "Mom has met Mr. Cao before, and he has courage in doing things. If you chat with him, it's like broadening your career in the showbiz. After the chat, it's just right." Go home and eat."

Bai Hui was a little helpless, and couldn't resist his parents' advice, so he put on his coat and left the hotel restaurant, took a taxi and drove to the business building where Qimai Entertainment was located.

The staff at the front desk had probably already been instructed. As soon as Bai Hui reported Cao Xun's name, one of them led Bai Hui to take the elevator up to the [-]th floor graciously.As soon as the elevator door opened, Cao Xun was already standing outside, shook hands with Bai Hui, and led him to the office.

When entering the door, Bai Hui raised his eyes and glanced at the door plate, which said "President's Office" engraved on it.In a flash, he recalled that business card. Cao Xun's position should be vice president. When he was wondering, Cao Xun had already grabbed his shoulders and led him into the room.

The door closed behind him, and Cao Xun said with a smile, "Bai Hui, let me introduce you to our Qimai boss, Zhou Weichen."

That never-ending nightmare walked up to Bai Hui, his tall figure blocking the sinking sky outside.

Zhou Weichen sneered at Bai Hui and said, "Long time no see, big star."
