After being forced to do business with my ex-boyfriend, I became popular

【03】

The air in the box froze for a moment.

"That's right, wait for Director Zhang to come back later, and see you guys get drunk, isn't that purely for scolding?" Someone changed the topic with an apologetic smile, and the meeting became heated again, and no one dared to say more.

Xie Shiyu's status in the industry has been stable over the years, and his entertainment company is gradually getting on the right track, and many newcomers are becoming popular.What's more, he has a deep background, and the Xie family behind him has been involved in many industries, not only in Yanning City, but also a business giant in China, so there is no reason to have an unpleasant fight with him because of a small star.

Jiang Ruan looked at Xie Shiyu from the corner of his eye. He was still holding the wine glass with long and strong knuckles.

"...Thank you." Jiang Ruan whispered, rubbing the cigarette case in hand with her fingertips.

Xie Shiyu's face was cold and he ignored him.

Xie Shiyu didn't say a word to him until the opening banquet ended and everyone left.

It seems like it was just a whim.

"That, Xiao Jiang." Director Zhang Shu stopped Jiang Ruan, "There will be a slight change in the scene tomorrow, wait a moment, I will tell you the details first, otherwise it will be too late to memorize the lines tomorrow morning."

Xie Shiyu picked up his coat, got up, passed Jiang Ruan, and walked out of the box.

……

Zhang Shu didn't chat with Jiang Ruan for a long time, the shooting schedule was very tight, the actors needed to rest, so he let Jiang Ruan leave as soon as possible.

He drank too much tonight, he was a little dizzy, his face was flushed, and he was walking towards the elevator with the script in his hands, just in time to meet Xie Shiyu.

Xie Shiyu hadn't gone upstairs yet. His suit jacket was draped between his elbows, and he was only wearing a black shirt. Under the thin material, his muscles were clearly outlined.His face was not very good-looking, his brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were cold, he drank an unlit cigarette, looked back at Zhang Shu, and said expressionlessly: "Senior brother."

"What's the matter?" Zhang Shu smelled of alcohol, and wanted to pat him on the shoulder with a smile, "Are you so upset that I asked you to come to the opening banquet?"

"No." Xie Shiyu avoided his hand.

"All right, all right, if I don't touch you, it's a smelly problem, cleanliness." Zhang Shu laughed and cursed a few words, his eyes were still full of excitement, moist and bright, "But you have helped me a lot this time, if you want It's not that you asked me to go find Jiang Ruan again, I don't know when the filming will start. Besides, if you are willing to come, the brother owes you a big favor."

Xie Shiyu University studied directing abroad. Zhang Shu was at the same school as him with the same tutor, but two years older than him.

As soon as Zhang Shu graduated, he wanted to prepare a work of his own with his classmates. They were not blindly confident, they just went to the film festival.He is the favorite student of the old professor. He has proficient and delicate shooting skills, and he is also very good at storyboarding the script. His debut novel written in his junior year was remade into a movie.

The young man was in high spirits.

As a result, his mother suddenly became seriously ill that year. She was the champion of the Lausanne International Ballet Competition. She was busy practicing dance in her early years and had no time to take care of her body.Zhang Shu gave up the movie and stayed by his mother's side for treatment.It was not until his mother passed away last year that he returned to China and started preparing for his first film.

"No need." Xie Shiyu was completely unreasonable.

Zhang Shu didn't care either.

There are ups and downs in this circle, who is not called brother and brother, but there are very few people who really help.He has no shortage of team and funds, the only thing he lacks is suitable actors, and Xie Shiyu has this trust in him, although...with some additional conditions.

Zhang Shu was very curious and bumped his elbow.

"I haven't bothered to ask you yet, aren't you unfamiliar with Jiang Ruan? Why do you have to find him..." Zhang Shu remembered his inhumanity, and joked, "Is it possible that you two have a relationship?" A paragraph? Don't trick me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran into people from the props team coming from a distance, and wanted to take the elevator. There was a girl holding flowers in her hand, which were unused roses for makeup photos during the day.

Xie Shiyu and Zhang Shu didn't leave for the time being, making way for them.

"With so many flowers, it's a waste of taking one shot, and the funds are in a hurry?" Xie Shiyu said indifferently after the elevator door closed.

Zhang Shu was drunk, so he didn't realize how outrageous his words were, but he heard the aura of finding fault, and instinctively went back: "Hey, let's be reasonable, the suite you live in upstairs is enough for me to buy a whole crew for one night." The flowers of the year are not the same every day."

Xie Shiyu pretended not to hear.

The girl in the props group accidentally dropped a flower on the ground. Xie Shiyu leaned over to pick it up. The petals were still soft and moist to the touch. The thin branch was gorgeous and deserted. He suddenly remembered the flower that he accidentally encountered in the corridor during the day. Face.

Xie Shiyu is a sophomore transfer student.

He was forced to transfer to a key high school with the highest enrollment rate in the city, and he was also put into a key class. In this old school with a strong and upright style of study, he was completely out of place.

No one in the class troubled him, at most they were curious.

He degenerates quickly, catches up on sleep in class, does not write a single word in his homework, and even gets only a dozen or so points in the first quiz, which is almost full in English, and those options are blindfolded.The teachers all knew that he didn't come to study at all, they couldn't control him, and they couldn't control him, anyway, his grades were not included in the class average.

The homeroom teacher has a terrible headache, just like this student, his studies are a mess, but he is good enough, so it is a big trouble to put him in the class.

But there was no other way, so I still found someone to collect his homework every day.

"Where are your papers?" Jiang Ruan, holding a stack of thick chemistry exercise books, stopped beside Xie Shiyu and looked down at him.

Xie Shiyu had just finished answering the phone at home, holding back his anger, tapped his beautiful slender fingers on the table a few times, raised his head and smiled at Jiang Ruan. Ah, good student. I'll hand it in after you write it."

Jiang Ruan pursed her lips and glanced at him, but said nothing.

Xie Shiyu was urged by him for more than a month, and he repeated the same conversation every day. He had never seen such a person who listened to the teacher's words, and it was terribly annoying.

But when Jiang Ruan left, he calmed down, and felt that he was really angry just now. He is not the kind of person who is used to angering others. Small cafeteria.Just in autumn, there are often spicy crabs in the window, the crab paste is golden, fat but not greasy.

Xie Shiyu didn't know what Jiang Ruan liked to eat, so he bought a box of small crabs, and bought a lot of miscellaneous things to apologize to him.

As a result, Jiang Ruan was indifferent, and after a few minutes, he said lightly, "Okay."

Xie Shiyu didn't understand.

After Jiang Ruan finished speaking, she stretched her fair and beautiful hand to the side, got up and took away his blank paper.

Xie Shiyu was startled again.

When he was called to the office at night, he saw his own paper on the chemistry teacher's desk, with only his name and student number written on it, and the teacher hit a few huge question marks with a red pen that pierced through the back of the paper.

Xie Shiyu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing.

He didn't expect Jiang Ruan to write for him like this.

Because he was suspected of laughing at the teacher on the spot and being too arrogant, he was fined a hundred times for copying the balance equation. When he returned to the classroom, it was dark and he was about to go to evening self-study.

"Xie Shiyu, Brother Xie! What did the old class ask you for just now?" A group of boys in the class gathered around his desk, laughing and booing, mysteriously blocking his seat.

Jiang Ruan was his deskmate, squeezed into a corner by those people, concentrating on writing the paper, as if no matter how chaotic the surroundings were, it had nothing to do with him.

He lowered his head, and Xie Shiyu vaguely saw the piece of red rope around his neck, and a small piece of white jade underneath, which fell out of the loose collar of his school uniform.

It's like the older generation begging for longevity for their children.

But it was the first time Xie Shiyu saw someone wearing it so obediently every day.

Xie Shiyu took the stack of copied equations, walked back to his seat, raised his eyebrows and asked the group of boys: "What's wrong? Why don't I go to the office for a day trip?"

When they got together to disperse, Xie Shiyu realized that several exquisitely wrapped gifts, love letters, and even... a large bunch of roses were placed on his desk, and they were pushed onto Jiang Ruan's desk. , dripping water wetly.

"Is it from the girls in the next class? Many people saw it just now. Isn't one of them the school belle?" Not only the boys were pushing and shoving, but many girls also joined in the fun and looked back, covering their faces and smiling, " There is also a man! He looks pretty good! I didn’t notice whether it was a flower or a letter, it was a gift from a boy!”

Xie Shiyu frowned and reached out to remove the pile of things, then handed Jiang Ruan a paper towel to wipe the table.

"Brother Xie, what do you like?" A boy couldn't help it, and asked him, scratching his heart and lungs with curiosity.

After all, Xie Shiyu ignored so many people who came to confess their love during this period of time.

"I like it..." Xie Shiyu said lazily, and glanced aside from the corner of his eye.

Jiang Ruan was still flipping through chemistry books, a small section of red string was exposed on the back of his white neck, and his hair was hanging limply, but for some reason, the tips of his ears were bleeding red, and the sides of his face and the ends of his eyes were also red. , More beautiful than the flowers next to it.

Xie Shiyu supported the back of Jiang Ruan's chair with one hand, and leaned over to take the bouquet of roses.

Jiang Ruan felt moist and soft petals accidentally rubbing against her cheek, and when she raised her head, it bumped into Xie Shiyu's shoulder. The young man's voice was low and smiling:

"I like to be nice."

Xie Shiyu looked cold, he threw the rose into the trash can, and then got on the elevator with Zhang Shu.

Zhang Shu didn't live on the same floor as him, sobered up a little, turned to Xie Shiyu and said, "Xiao Xie, anyway, you said you didn't know Jiang Ruan well, so during this period of time, you should find him to play more or something to get acquainted. Although this drama is not only a relationship line, but the role of the two of you is definitely the most important. Why do I think he is a little afraid of you?"

"Okay." Xie Shiyu agreed casually.

When Jiang Ruan returned to the room, he remembered that the room card was still at Xu Xiaozhou's side. He waited for Xu Xiaozhou to send it to him, and then answered a phone call.

"You joined the group? How is it?" The voice on the other end of the phone was muffled, as if he hadn't woken up.

"What's the matter...it's really unlucky." Jiang Ruan was tense all day, but after receiving the call, she relaxed, leaning against the wall, with a smile in her eyes, "It's not that you haven't seen me filming, Besides, today is just the start.”

"Then I miss you?"

Jiang Ruan was nauseated, "The filming will be finished in a few months, and the crew will be transferred to the city after a while."

"That's how life feels like years!"

Jiang Ruan didn't appreciate it, "You just save it. By the way, don't forget to feed me..."

"I know," the other party said reluctantly, "As for what, you tell me eight hundred times a day. What a treasure, you eat better than me."

Jiang Ruan lowered his eyes and smiled.

He was about to speak, but when he looked up, he saw Xie Shiyu who had just come out of the elevator, and froze in place again.

"Hello? Why didn't you talk?" The other end of the phone urged him, "I fed you that ancestor, you can come back quickly, it scolds me all the time, I don't know who it learned from, it's annoying."

"...Well, let's do this first." Jiang Ruan responded casually and hung up the phone.

There was a sudden silence in the corridor.

Xie Shiyu walked towards Jiang Ruan and asked him, "What's the phone number at home?"

"...Hmm." Jiang Ruan didn't know what to say.

He thought that he would keep a proper distance from Xie Shiyu for the rest of his life. He rejected all the variety shows with Xie Shiyu on the same stage, did not participate in the dramas in which he starred, and even shunned all the dinner salons. He was still so caught off guard. up.

How much guilty.

"Is it your boyfriend?" Xie Shiyu took out his room card and suddenly smiled at him, "The one from before, is it still a replacement?"

Jiang Ruan leaned against the door on his side, and laughed, "It's still the same as before."

"I didn't see it," Xie Shiyu became a little interested, turned around, and greeted him like an old friend reunited, "Then you are quite in love."

Jiang Ruan suspected that he heard a little sarcasm, and said coldly: "It may be that I just met the right person."

Xie Shiyu fell silent.

It took a while before he spoke again, "Director Zhang has a good vision."

"?"

Jiang Ruan didn't understand what he meant.

With Xie Shiyu in his pocket, he raised his eyebrows casually, and his eyes fell on the script in his arms, "Is it especially suitable for you? Act in your true colors."

Jiang Ruan was a little top-heavy.

He stood still for a few seconds before he suddenly remembered that he had just read the script of the first twenty episodes, and the character he was going to play was a deceitful scumbag.At that time, Jiang Ruan spent one night watching it, and he had already imagined how fancy he would be scolded after the broadcast started.

"To each other." Jiang Ruan was slightly taken aback, her tone was very cold, and she refused to budge.

Zhang Shu got dizzy after being drunk, and accidentally went to the wrong floor. When he came up, he found that his two male protagonists were up in the middle of the night, talking in the corridor, and blinked in confusion: "You... this is?"

Jiang Ruan hadn't reacted yet.

Xie Shiyu grabbed his shoulder casually and pulled him towards him. Jiang Ruan bumped into his shoulder unexpectedly, and then heard him say lightly: "Didn't you let us get acquainted in advance? Teacher Jiang thought so too. He came here specially to play against me, it was very hard."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

"Oh, that's good." Zhang Shu always felt that something was wrong, but it was not good to dampen the actors' enthusiasm for shooting, so he tried his best to say sincerely: "Dedication is a good thing."

Jiang Ruan: "......???"
