After a long time, Wen Mubai didn't respond, and the driver in the front seat raised the partition silently, pretending that he didn't exist.

Xu Chacha's nerves were all suspended, nervous about any slight reaction of Wen Mubai.

"How old are you, and you still say such coquettish words." Wen Mubai turned off the lights in the car and leaned back, calmly withdrawing from this silent tug-of-war, "Where are you going back, apartment or home?"

"I'm eighteen." Xu Chacha's chest was heaving, and she was trying her best to suppress the emotions that erupted just now, but the irritability was suppressed, and the feeling of grievance came up again. Her eyes were red, and her voice raised a lot , "I told you not to treat me like a child!"

The car was a bit too quiet, Xu Chacha could hear her own rapid breathing, the fist beside her was trembling, and her eyes were fixed on Wen Mubai's direction.

Even in the dim light, she could only see a rough outline.

"En." In the next second, she saw Wen Mubai raised his hand, wrapped his arms around her shoulders, and patted her on the back, "You have grown up."

Xu Chacha leaned against Wen Mubai's chest, with her ears attached to the sound of her heartbeat. Different from her calm and steady surface, the beating sound of that heart was heavy and chaotic without rhythm, and became more and more chaotic as she approached. quick.

"In the past two years, the film and television industry has been cold, and the income of the Wen family has declined for two years. In the first half of the year, the S+ project, which has the most attention and investment, has seen a dismal number of hits after its launch, and it has not even earned back the promotional fees." Wen Mubai seldom said so much at once. But now, he explained to Xu Chacha in as easy a language as possible, "He arranged for me to go on a blind date, not because he was really worried that I wouldn't find my other half to die alone, but just hoped to take this opportunity to catch up with the Wang family."

Wang's Entertainment is different from Wen's. The latter pays attention to popularity. Over the past few years, it has been keeping up with the pace of the times. Working with tireless machine manufacturers, it has created batch after batch of hits that are extremely popular but have little stamina.

And Wang has always kept a low profile. It may take three or four years for a project to enter the preparatory stage, but almost every time it is shot, the results are extraordinary. Entering the circle, at the age of 40, they can still pull out to compete with young idols. They seem to be interested in investing, but they don't like the dramas that the Wen family came to cooperate with.

"So... did I mess things up?" Xu Chacha began to regret.

Adding up the two [-]-year-olds in the previous life, it is almost forty, and I still can't learn to be prudent in doing things.

What Wen Mubai usually said about her was right, but she just acted rashly and disregarded the consequences.

Just now, he lost his temper at her unknowingly.

"I'm sorry, I don't know, how about I go and apologize to that uncle." Xu Chacha's voice softly leaned against her, with a very sincere attitude of admitting his mistake, "I just don't want you to go on a blind date, I don't want you to marry someone else."

No matter who she looks like, that person can't blame her.

"No, I'll make it clear to him." Wen Mubai hooked her long hair with his fingers, "Why do you think of dressing up like this today?"

"How can you pretend to be tender otherwise." Xu Chacha shook her braid, "Does it look a little silly?"

Wen Mubai laughed lightly, the hot air sprayed on her neck intermittently, making it itchy.

"What did you call me before?"

"Mom, what's the matter." There was no one else here, so Xu Chacha yelled more smoothly than before. She leaned against Wen Mubai's shoulder, purposely narrowed her voice and imitated a child's tone and whispered to her, "Don't talk to those How about a blind date uncle, isn't it enough to have Chacha?"

Wen Mubai tightened his arms around her, lowered his eyes slightly to hide the waves in his eyes, "Stop shouting, there will be no next time."

"I don't think that sounds good either, it calls you old." Xu Chacha put his arm around her neck and shook it slightly, "Auntie promise me, okay?"

"Let go first." Wen Mubai pulled down her arm, his voice sounded hoarse for some reason.

"Why, don't you let me hug you now?" Xu Chacha not only did not let go, but also moved his face closer to her, "Can't you?"

The car just passed a street lamp, and the bright yellow light illuminated the face of Xu Chacha who was only a few inches away from Wen Mubai.

The girl who grew up suddenly in those ten years, exuded the sweet smell of peaches, her slightly parted pink lips did not wear lipstick today, only a light lip gloss, her long eyelashes drooped and her eyes fell on a somewhat ambiguous position.

Before she could respond, Xu Chacha lowered her voice and said, "Wen Mubai, I won't call you aunt from now on, okay?"

"Huh?" Wen Mubai raised his eyebrows, thought for a while and said, "You can call me whatever you want, it's just a title anyway."

"It's not just a title." The beautiful lips opened and closed, and spit out a few more words, "I won't call you auntie, and you are not allowed to treat me like a child anymore."

"Just because of this?" Wen Mubai tilted his neck back, intentionally increasing the distance between him and Xu Chacha.

She was afraid that if the peach wandered away from her sight again, she couldn't help but reach for it and bite it.

"Yes." Xu Chacha noticed her movement, and stepped back a little consciously, until she could see her entire face clearly, and smiled at her with curled lips.

"You know I like girls, Wen Mubai."

It was Wen Mubai who was wrong, the title had more influence than she imagined.

It has been a long time since she heard someone call her by her name in such a brisk tone. In the company, she is "Editor Wen", and outside she is "Miss Wen's family". Occasionally, she has to continue to be Wen Shiyu's sister and Father Wen's sister when she returns home. daughter.

But with Xu Chacha, she can be nothing, strip away all her titles, leaving only the self that has been suppressed in her heart.

She heard herself responding to Xu Chacha's words pretending to be calm, "I know."

"Then what about you?" Xu Chacha's tone was natural, as if he was just asking for gossip about his little sister.

Wen Mubai raised his eyes to meet Xu Chacha's gaze. Her eyes were always as clear as the lake water, as if she could easily penetrate to the bottom. All the joys, anger, sorrows and joys were superficial, but that straightforwardness always made Wen Mu Bai felt overwhelmed.

She took the blanket next to her and covered Xu Chacha's head. It was much easier for her to reply without looking at those eyes, "I'll look at the face."

……

What happened on the day of the blind date really made Wang Zhi very embarrassed. Of course he knew that Wen Mubai couldn't have such a big daughter, but the other party told him that he couldn't get down in front of him. Can not care about.

Wen Mubai's apology message did not receive a response, which was also expected by her.

Father Wen didn't know what happened, all he knew was that the blind date was a mess, Wang Zhi was unhappy, and his investment would be in vain. After thinking about it, there were only two daughters at home. Try stuffing the small one first.

"I won't go!" It was rare that the whole family was at dinner, Wen Shiyu refused in a shrill voice, "I already have someone I like, why should I be arranged to go on a blind date?"

Wen Mubai lowered his head and picked the chili in the bowl, without saying a word.

"Besides, it wasn't a blind date arranged for me in the first place. Why did you push it to me? The man is almost forty. I can't eat just looking at the photos."

"Yeah, Xiaoyu is still in the circle and has a bright future. Wouldn't it ruin her to go on a blind date and be photographed and gossip?" Wen's mother followed suit.

After Wen Shiyu's debut as a child star, relying on her own resources, the exposure has been very good. In addition, there are few singers whose strength and appearance are online, and they have attracted many diehards. The statistics are very good. It can be said that Wen's half cash cow.

Having said that, Father Wen is a little uncertain, but now Wang Zhi has clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with Wen Mubai, and he also knows that his daughter's character is impossible to be humble and apologize to others, and he may even wish for it to become the situation it is today. .

If he doesn't push Wen Shiyu out, what can he do?

"But if you can't get on this line, the company's capital chain is broken, and follow-up operations will be problematic."

In the eyes of Wen's father, his own company is the most important thing. After Wen Shiyu's scandal breaks out, he can buy the media to delete the black material and market it to whitewash it. But if Wang Zhi's investment is gone, it will be gone.

"I'm not going! If I'm really allowed to go, I'd rather die."

Mother Wen gave Wen Shiyu a slap in the face, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of your father!"

In the feathers all over the place, Wen Mubai was finally willing to speak.

"There is more than one Wang Zhineng investing in the whole world, so you can only focus on City A?"

"Mubai, do you have a solution." Wen's mother changed her face at the speed of light, and put on a good stepmother expression, "Quickly tell me."

"Laiqian." She gave a name, "She wants to make a movie recently."

Lai Qian is an actor she has worked with before, and she has no background, but the financial backer behind her is very powerful, and she loves Lai Qian very much.

Although she has been in the entertainment industry for so long, she has not gained much fame, and is criticized by netizens every day because of her acting skills and outspoken personality, but there are always good resources.

It's just that she suddenly became interested recently, and she wants to calm down and transform. She is currently in contact with the book and the director, meaning that she will spend money to make a good movie of her own. It doesn't need to be a blockbuster, but it must be shot well large and luxurious.

Originally, Laiqian had contacted Mrs. Wang, but she didn't know where there was a mistake and the negotiation failed, which allowed Wen Mubai to find an opportunity.

"The method has already been said, it is up to you to decide what to do."

"I'm full." Wen Mubai put down his chopsticks and the untouched rice bowl and stood up, and glanced at Wen's mother from the corner of his eye, "Next time, ask the kitchen to put less spicy food, so that you will get angry when you eat."

……

2602

In recent months, Xu Chacha's behavior has become very strange. She wakes up at six o'clock in the morning and sits at the desk to do makeup for more than an hour.

This kind of behavior is not uncommon among freshmen, but Xu Chacha is different. You must know that she used to get up 10 minutes before class, wash up, put on her lips, hug her book and head straight to the classroom.

Zhu Zhu, another professional early riser, couldn't help gossiping, "Baby, have you been in a good mood lately? You wake up earlier than me every day."

Xu Chacha was drawing eyeliner, and she didn't dare to breathe. Fortunately, her hands were still fresh, so the upturned eyeliner was drawn very smoothly.

After finishing the painting, she replied to Zhu Zhu, "I just think I'm too sloppy when I go out."

"Are you sloppy?" Zhu Zhu opened his eyes angrily, "You are so beautiful that you can't give up on yourself. If I look like you, I won't bother to put on makeup when I go out."

"That's different." Xu Chacha curled up her eyelashes patiently, "I'm not good-looking enough yet."

"Help, help." Zhu Zhu rubbed his heart, "I'm going to be so mad at this child, where did she learn Versailles, Su Qing, Jiang Shu, someone, help me beat her hard!"

"Shh." Xu Chacha covered her mouth, "I'm serious."

Wen Mubai has written scripts and also worked as the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine. She has never seen any kind of celebrity, beauty, and pretty model in the circle. Her beauty is really not enough to compare with.

When I asked Wen Mubai last time, she said she wanted to make money first, and this time she said she wanted to look good. Xu Chacha made a comprehensive analysis and decided that Wen Mubai's ideal type is a good-looking rich woman.

With the good luck of wearing books, Xu Chacha now occupies half of it, but the matter of good-looking is quite ambiguous, in Wen Mubai's eyes, she is not sure what is considered good-looking.

"Does it look good?" After tidying herself up, Xu Chacha put down the mirror and asked.

Her makeup has always been very light, and she pays attention to her strengths and avoids her weaknesses. She doesn't add any more color. The eye shadow is just a light sweep of shadow to deepen the outline, and some deepened in the folds of the double eyelids. The pearls in the eyes, coupled with curled eyelashes, look like The force is not obvious, but it has a lot of energy.

The matte brick red on the lips is thinly applied, and the gradient that slowly fades from the lips looks very good in texture and white.

Zhu Zhu collected his saliva, "Looks good, if I were a man, I would marry you home now."

"Well, that's it for today."

"You're dressed so nicely today, where are you going?" Zhu Zhu asked curiously, "Isn't there no class in the afternoon?"

"Go find aunt...Wen Mubai." Xu Chacha almost called out by mistake.

"Oh~ let's go then." Zhu Zhu giggled, "Isn't it coming back that night?"

"Fuck you." Xu Chacha threw a ball of tissues at her, took the key and put it in the bag, "Let's go, don't think about me."

Xu Chacha hailed a car in advance on her mobile phone, and when she arrived at the school gate, she just sat in it. After closing the car door, she sent a text message to Wen Mubai, telling her that she had already left.

Wen Mubai, who hadn't written a script for a long time, recently took another job, and he was paired with Laiqian, an acting talent.

Xu Chacha was a little curious, so he wanted to visit the class even if he didn't say anything. Wen Mubai thought whose fan she was, so he told her the address.

She wasn't a screenwriter, but Xu Chacha had better be led by someone when she was going, so now Xu Chacha wanted to take a taxi to her studio, and the two met up and set off together.

What Wen Mubai didn't know was that Xu Chacha was not interested in any actor at all, but simply wanted to ask her out to meet. She was so busy that she couldn't even reply to a few text messages, Xu Chacha was almost bored by herself Gray out.

The two of them arrived at the set together. Today's unlucky filming was on the outset, and the wind was so strong that it made people shiver.

The heroine, Lai Qian, is wearing a thin suspender dress, sitting on a bench by the lake in the park, facing the lake while performing a crying scene while reciting lines that are so long that the screenwriter himself may not be able to remember them.

Xu Chacha thought it was quite fresh, but he didn't expect that Lai Qian, an actress who was rumored to have a backer who won big water awards, was quite dedicated, and the director didn't even complain if he came back again.

But at the beginning, when she put so much effort into planning to make this movie, Xu Chacha felt quite shocked.

From the script to the costume and even the director, she and the benefactor behind her spent a lot of money on one piece. With the usual configuration and a different actor, at least two nominations can be made.

The outsiders couldn't understand Lai Qian's operation, and the insiders also saw it in a daze, thinking that she was tired of being a canary and wanted to try the taste of taking money for nothing.

"Come on!" As soon as the director called out, the assistant wrapped Lai Qian in a blanket, and she was holding a pink warm water bag, shivering from the cold, "Director, can you make me cry again?" In a few games, my tears were about to freeze with the lake water."

Director: "It depends on your standard, if it is..."

"Success! You can hold back your words." Lai Qian blocked his mouth, "I want to hear a 'OK' from you, that is harder than going to heaven."

Probably seeing Wen Mubai, Lai Qian walked here with a cup of hot tea, stood in front of Xu Chacha and looked at her up and down, "Yo, this little girl looks really iconic."

Xu Chacha didn't expect her to look so ladylike and speak so down-to-earth, so she tilted her head and smiled softly.

"It's a big girl." Wen Mubai put his hands on Xu Chacha's head, "But it's true that she grew up from a small sign."

"This feels like tsk tsk tsk." Lai Qian really didn't admit that he was born, and he pinched Xu Chacha's face with his hands, "My skin was similar to yours when I was young, I miss it so much."

Xu Chacha smiled, "You're still young now, and you look so good with such haggard makeup, your foundation is really good, I'm so envious."

"Hey!" Lai Qian stared, "I like this little girl, she has a sweet mouth."

"I like you too." Xu Chacha said politely.

"Tell me, is it my little fan, that's why Wen Mubai was brought here to visit the class?" Lai Qian winked at her.

"Forget it." That's all she could say.

"That's a good relationship. Come on, my sister chats with you. You are so popular with my sister. When I go back later, I will have all autographed and group photos."

"Huh? Hahahaha okay."

Xu Chacha didn't expect that he was just looking for an opportunity to meet Wen Mubai, but was dragged away by Lai Qian to chat, and Wen Mubai didn't stand for long before being dragged by the director to discuss the script.

She could only put away her begging eyes, and obediently sit beside Lai Qian and listen to her.

"It's so rare. I can still have fans who come to the scene, and they are female fans." Lai Qian put his arm around Xu Chacha's shoulders, looking like two good brothers.

She was wearing a small floral dress, but her legs were crossed regardless of her image, and she was holding an enamel cup soaked in fat sea in her left hand, blowing and drinking. Her posture was similar to that of an old man at a morning tea stand flipping through newspapers.

"Your drama is very good." It is very good to watch as a comedy.

"You kid." Lai Qian patted Xu Chacha on the back fiercely, "You're talking nonsense, how can you close your eyes and brag like this, let's just talk about it, don't shame yourself online, or people will call you a brainless fan .”

"Pfft—" Xu Chacha covered her mouth, "Miss Qianqian, you are in such a good mood."

"What can I do if I have a bad mentality." Lai Qian took a sip of the hot tea in his hand, "Can you find a second female star in China who has more slander than me? It's old and used, and now you're still criticizing me for not wearing a bra while watering the flowers in the garden of the villa?"

"I've seen this too. Don't you feel troubled? The paparazzi are all squatting at your door." It's too broad.

"What's the matter, I'm a female star, I have to worry when no one wants to take pictures of me." Lai Qian was very thoughtful.

"Then... is it true that you are being fostered?"

"You can also say that, but we can also be regarded as a couple, but she has always been raising me."

"Couple?"

"Tsk, you don't know how good-looking she is. If I hadn't been stalking her, she would still have looked down on me." Lai Qian took a sip from her glass.

"Can it still be like this?" Is this an unpopular version of self-recommendation?

After reading too many plots of novels about forced buying and selling, Xu Chacha suddenly became interested in the story of Lai Qian and her benefactor.

"Yeah, if I were an ordinary person, then I would play the chaste and strong woman. If I were her." Lai Qian laughed loudly, "I'm the one who took advantage."

Xu Chacha was somewhat curious about that person, but at this moment, a strange thought popped into her mind.

"What about me." She pointed to herself, "how about me."

Lai Qian narrowed his eyes, "You are still young, so don't get involved, don't think that all the benefactors are like my family's rich and beautiful old man, and there are too many old men with big belly and bald head."

"That's not what I meant!" Xu Chacha said hastily.

"Oh~" Lai Qian looked at her with a different look.

Indeed, taking a closer look at the accessories and clothes on Xu Chacha's body, they were all expensive.

"You don't pay much attention to face in this business, look at this." Lai Qian rubbed his fingers together like counting money.

"I have a little bit of this too."

The assistant next to him came to Lai Qian's side at the right time and explained Xu Chacha's identity.

"Okay, this is still a fan of rich women. If you say it, you will have a face." Lai Qian patted his thigh and asked Xu Chacha excitedly: "Which one do you like?"

Xu Chacha wasn't used to her speaking like this, she didn't even think about going there, she just started chatting with Lai Qian and asked a question.

Let her say it now, how dare she speak up.

But who is Laiqian? She's been in the circle for so long, and she's become half-human. Ever since she came in, she noticed that Xu Chacha's eyes were flicking at Wen Mubai, and each glance was more affectionate and sticky. She didn't want this kind of gaze. too familiar.

Laiqian is the one in her family who looks at her like this every day.

"If it's Wen Mubai, I advise you to hurry up and sneak in during this time."

"Wh-no no." Xu Chacha quickly waved his hands, seeing that Wen Mubai was still chatting with the director vigorously and didn't have time to pay attention, then leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What do you say?"

"The Wen family seems to be in a bit of trouble recently, losing several projects in a row. More recently, the drama that hit the street a while ago was also owned by their family. They originally expected it to come back, but the male lead broke out in domestic violence. The cheating scandal was boycotted by the audience, and more than a billion dollars were wasted." Lai Qian was excited when he talked about the gossip, "I almost lost my underwear, otherwise why would I push my daughter out on a blind date?"

Speaking of the blind date, Xu Chacha's expression darkened.

If she hadn't screwed up the blind date, the Wen family wouldn't have gotten so stiff with the Wang family, and now Wen Mubai's production team ran to both ends of the studio, and was so busy that he had to be reminded after every meal.

Xu Chacha watched anxiously from the side, and wanted to help her, but she really seemed to have nothing but money.

Xu Chacha thought that if he had been more diligent these years, he would not be still unknown, and his contacts in the circle could be counted on one hand. At least that way, he might be able to help Wen Mubai something.

Thinking about it, Xu Chacha clenched her fists unconsciously. She felt that it was time for her to wake up her damn careerism. As long as she wasn't exhausted to the point of sudden death, wouldn't it be better to earn as much money as possible!

It's really been spoiled by Xu's father and Xu's mother for a long time, and he is about to become a little useless pig who can only stretch out his clothes and open his mouth.

Xu Chacha raised his hand and patted his face, wake up, Xu Chacha, you have to raise a wife!What kind of salted fish, get up and make money!

But at the moment she has to solve Wen Mubai's urgent need first. Two days ago Xu Chacha saw Jiang Panpan crying poor in Moments. She and Wen Mubai are partners. If she is poor, Wen Mubai will definitely not be much better off.

Xu Chacha looked at Wen Mubai's back, and a few yellow leaves blown by the north wind just landed on her feet, and that long and thin figure immediately felt a bit bleak.

Xu Chacha covered her mouth in distress, trying not to let herself sob out: "My poor aunt, life is going to be so hard tomorrow, why are you still holding on to it?"

That night Xu Yanshu received a call from the white-eyed wolf sister. She was working overtime in the laboratory at the time, exhausted all over, but she answered it in a good voice.

"Is the living expenses not enough? I'll call you now."

"No, no." Xu Chacha said quickly, "I want to ask you, if I have a sum of money..."

"Save it up and buy yourself delicious food." Xu Yanshu didn't even want to say it.

"How old are you still buying delicious food, I want to invest!"

Through the phone, Xu Yanshu could even imagine Xu Chacha's chest puffed up, replying confidently even if she couldn't be right.

She lowered her head and laughed, and said to the other person, "If you want to manage money, I'll help you buy a few funds, which are safer than stock trading. If you are simply short of money, just ask me."

"It's been said that I'm not short of money, I just want to invest in a movie."

"Show?" Xu Yanshu frowned, "Why are you suddenly interested in this?"

"Anyway, help me." Xu Chacha softened her voice and acted like a baby with Xu Yanshu, "My sister is the best for me, isn't she?"

Xu Yanshu now has some resistance to her sugar-coated bullets, because this fact is too wrong, revealing weirdness everywhere.

You have to know that in the past, the things that allowed Xu Chacha to control her acting like a baby and begging for conditions were usually related to that person...

As if awakened suddenly, thinking of Wen Mubai's recent situation, she asked the person on the other end of the phone in a deep voice, "Don't tell me, you are trying to send money to Wen Mubai's play in a hurry."

Do you know how much it costs to write a script? Can you be short of your small copper coins?
