I really didn't want to be popular [entertainment circle]

"Okay." Shen Youlan seemed really tired and was about to fall asleep at any moment, "Go to sleep."

"Well, good night..." Su Zibo said softly.

After hanging up the phone, Su Zibo collapsed on the sofa, with his head against the back of the sofa, and sighed helplessly.

Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow.

……

The next day, it rained heavily.

Su Zibo was awakened from his sleep by the sound of pouring rain, and found that it was past nine o'clock in the morning.

There was only Chen Jue's information on the phone, and asked him if everything was okay.

Su Zibo replied that he had called the police and told him not to worry.

Su Zibo put down his phone and finished washing, ready to go to online classes.

Auntie didn't come today, so he had to order takeaway by himself. He didn't have time for the lunch meal, so he just fooled around. He was very tired at night, and he couldn't fool him about the afternoon meal, so Su Zibo looked at the takeaway list seriously.

After eating, it was already past seven in the evening.

After yesterday's incident, Su Zibo felt that the backyard was not safe anyway, and he was somewhat distracted, so he didn't dare to go there in the end.

When I was about to go back to the room, I heard someone ring the doorbell.

Ding-dong-

Ding dong————

Su Zibo's heart skipped a beat, and he was almost driven away by the sound.Until he regained his composure, walked to the door and turned on the monitor, and asked, "...who."

In the dark night, in the night vision mode, the camera shows the black and gray exterior street view.

Apparently no one, not even a car.

……nobody? !

While Su Zibo was still thinking about what happened, suddenly a shadow of a hand was caught on the camera, and the whole picture became pitch black in an instant, and he could no longer see it.

"Fuck!" Su Zibo took a big step back, and then someone laughed in the camera.

The laughter was a bit thin, and it was not clear whether it was a man or a woman.

Immediately, his door was slapped twice again, and the door frame vibrated.

No matter how courageous Su Zibo was, he was so frightened that he trembled nervously. He stood behind the door and stared at the door a few times. He didn't walk to the door until the movement ended, and looked into the monitor.

Street View returned to normal, and hands were no longer on the monitor.

Su Zibo stared at the screen with wide eyes, when he wanted to get closer...

"Hi!"

"what----"

He screamed sharply.

"..." The humanity outside the screen said, "Ah, what's your name! What's wrong with you!"

Su Zibo panted heavily, holding on to the wall next to him.

It was clear that the person who came was his neighbor, Jiang Baicheng.

"You..." Su Zibo looked around, "Was it you just now?"

"What?" Jiang Baicheng raised his hand, "I borrowed a few books from Mr. Shen before the festival, and returned them to him after reading them."

"...He's not here." Su Zibo said.

"Oh, I know, he's on a business trip." Jiang Baicheng said, "It's the same for you, open the door for me?"

Su Zibo didn't want to open the door at all: "You leave the door open."

"Oh no." Jiang Baicheng said, "Open the door, Mr. Shen and I have already talked about it."

Su Zibo was depressed, thinking how he even knew about Shen Youlan's business trip.

How close are the two of them usually communicating with each other...

Forget it, after thinking about it, Su Zibo didn't know why there was such a prank, he still opened the door, Jiang Baicheng was standing outside, he put away the umbrella, then handed him a bag: "Thank you."

"Yeah." Su Zibo accepted it and was about to close the door.

"Won't you let me go in and have a sit?" Jiang Baicheng said.

"It's too late." Su Zibo said indifferently.

"Speaking of which, what happened here last night?" Jiang Baicheng approached him and said, "I saw police surrounded outside."

Su Zibo looked at him, and made an excuse casually: "The police won't allow it."

"Ah." Jiang Baicheng opened his mouth wide in surprise, "Is it a serious matter?"

Su Zibo carried his belongings and said, "...I have nothing to do, I'll close the door first."

"Hey, wait, wait, you seem to hate me." Jiang Baicheng pinched the door frame, looked at Su Zibo and said.

"Why do you say that?" Su Zibo raised his eyelids, "Are we familiar?"

"I think it's not bad." Jiang Baicheng said with a smile, "We are neighbors, we will always get acquainted. Mr. Shen and I got acquainted very quickly..."

"Oh, let's cook later..." Su Zibo turned his head and was about to close the door, "Good night."

The moment the door was about to close, Jiang Baicheng blocked the door with one hand, half of his face was inside the door frame, and he looked at Su Zibo with a smile, but Su Zibo could feel that his eyes were not really smiling.

"The adults at home are not here at night, so remember to close the doors and windows." Jiang Baicheng paused word by word, procrastinating, "Good night, young master."

When the door was closed, Su Zibo's back felt cold, and the fear just now came again.

He held the bag of books in his hand and put the books on the sofa.

He took a picture with his mobile phone and sent it to Shen Youlan, and sent him a WeChat message: ——The neighbor across the street returned your book to you.

Shen Youlan replied quickly this time:

--it is good.

The word "good" at least shows that Shen Youlan did lend the book to Jiang Baicheng, and he knew about it...

Su Zibo continued to test: ——I said, do you know him well?

Shen Youlan said: - Generally speaking, he is a little familiar.

Su Zibo said: ——Indeed.

Shen Youlan said: ——I still have some things to do.

Su Zibo: - You are busy...

An indescribable feeling.

Fear, fear, and other complicated emotions made him feel a little indescribably tired now.Su Zibo nestled on the sofa for a while, then let out a breath.

"Be patient." Su Zibo encouraged himself, "Sleep..."

On the third day, the police brought in feedback about the incident.

They have checked all the surrounding cameras, and have not found any suspicious persons for the time being, so they can only request to strengthen the security work, and if there is anything else in the future, they will directly report to the police.

And because there was some trouble after reporting the case, Su Zibo was once again on the hot search list.

The reporters who got wind of the news even started to guard the community, calling Li Silu's phone all day long to inquire, while the brokerage company, which was silent to the outside world, only told Su Zibo not to say too much.

The hot search was quickly suppressed by the brokerage company, and it probably stayed on the hot search for 10 to [-] minutes.

Of course Su Zibo wouldn't say much, he really just wanted to study hard, and the mock exam was coming soon!

After all, how many pairs of eyes stared at him, just wanting to see him make mistakes and fail.

So he can't have any place for people to grasp.

After eight o'clock in the evening, Su Zibo was afraid that something would happen again, so he planned to go to the room early to hide.He ran quickly to the small warehouse in the kitchen to get some food and drink and a cup of coffee, but he felt chilly when he walked into the corridor.

Are the kitchen windows open?

Su Zibo walked in, and sure enough, he saw that the kitchen window was open, and it was still raining lightly outside.

The kitchen window cannot be opened from the outside. When Su Zibo thought of this, his back was covered with chill again, and he didn't want to think whether he opened it by himself or...

... There are people in the house.

He quickly returned to the house, ran in and took a look at every room, including under the sofa and even under the bed.He doesn't often enter Shen Youlan's room, the last check, so far, it seems that there is nothing.

Su Zibo stood in the living room, holding his mobile phone and looking in the direction of the door, his whole body was shaking.

After a while, some soft voices came from the phone.

Su Zibo was taken aback, and immediately looked left and right, then lowered his head and realized that he was typing on WeChat for some reason.

The person he called was still Shen Youlan...

"Hey?"

"..."

Su Zibo heard the voice on the receiver, and of course he didn't know why he called him.

It seems to be subconscious, he really wants to hear Shen Youlan's voice.

"What's wrong?" Shen Youlan said, "Speak up, young master."

"..." Su Zibo said, "Don't call me that."

"What's the matter, I'm weak."

Shen Youlan was a little noisy there, he seemed to have changed to a quiet place.

"You're still outside." Su Zibo said.

"Tomorrow's big show, come for a backstage interview." Shen Youlan said, "Maybe I won't be back until late at night."

"Oh." Su Zibo responded.

He thought that Shen Youlan didn't ask him anything, and probably didn't care about what happened outside.

After being silent for a while, Shen Youlan said, "Aren't you sleeping yet?"

"Can't sleep." Su Zibo said.

"Read the book." Shen Youlan said, "I still have something to do."

Su Zibo could only be discouraged: "Then you should be busy."

He hung up the phone and sat on the sofa.

The cat didn't leave the room tonight, so he could only sit here alone.There was a blanket on the sofa, although Shen Youlan didn't say it clearly, but it was obviously put there specially for fear that he would be cold.Su Zibo picked it up, wrapped it around his body, and sniffed it... There was also a faint smell of perfume from Shen Youlan's body.

……

"Lance—"

Shen Youlan turned her head and saw Penny holding the recorder and clothes in her hands: "I'm all looking for you, why are you missing?"

"Sorry." Shen Youlan said, "What's wrong."

"When will Teacher Jian Ning be free for an interview? The next dozen or so media outlets are waiting." Penny said, "You know him well, can you communicate with him?"

Shen Youlan took a breath, looked at her mobile phone, sent a few words and said: "It's not a question of familiarity."

He took a long leg and stepped into the corridor: "Tomorrow's big show will only focus on him. According to the past, he may not have time to accept interviews before the show."

Penny said: "But there are many media outlets waiting outside, and our editor has also prepared an interview draft. If you miss it this time..."

"Come with me." Shen Youlan said, "I sent him a message."

Penny couldn't help complaining from the side: "I only invited [-] socialmedia companies, how could there be so many people! The backstage of this show is really a mess, a mess! If there is an invitation letter for a press card, the security will put it inside." ...Many of them are Internet anchors and Internet celebrities who come to gain popularity, and these people can actually be included...I am really convinced...Hey, hello?"

"Huh?" Shen Youlan looked up from the phone again.

"Did we go the wrong way?" Penny asked, "We're almost at the safe exit."

"It seems to be." Shen Youlan said.

He turned his head and walked back, Penny gave him a hand: "Wrong again! Here, here, here..."

At this time, a message flashed on Shen Youlan's cell phone, and it was Jian Ning who replied to him: ——Come directly to the lounge.

Shen Youlan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go." Shen Youlan said, "Jian Ning promised us to go to the lounge for an interview, but time is tight and we need to hurry up."

Penny slapped the wind beside the guide: "No problem!"

Penny and he arrived at the preparation backstage, and heard Jian Ning's assistant shouting hoarsely outside the door: "Mr. Jian is not accepting interviews for the time being!! Everyone please come back!! Teacher Jian is not accepting interviews now! Don't be crowded in the corridor !! Thank you for your cooperation!"

Shen Youlan was standing tall on the outside, and when she wanted to squeeze in, she saw the backstage door was opened, and other people rushed up when they saw it, shouting: "Mr. Jian!" "Teacher Jian!" and shouted at him.

Rows of coat racks came out first from the backstage, and the sound quickly drowned out the sound of wheels rolling on the floor. Afterwards, Jian Ning, the designer of the big show, came out from inside, his long hair tied high behind his head, wearing a A pair of brown sunglasses, wearing a white pearl shirt, although half of his handsome face was covered, the impatience on that face was clearly written.

After a long time, Jian Ning is still the same as he remembered, arrogant and indifferent, but he doesn't hate it.

The designer probably has such a temper, which is why he has a legend of being alienated from the world. Jian Ning is young, so of course she has the qualifications.

Jian Ning squeezed through the crowd surrounded by noisy voices, and when she saw the tall Shen Youlan standing outside, his expression relaxed slightly: "Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the lounge?"

"I'm afraid your people won't let me in." Shen Youlan shrugged.

Jian Ning stopped chatting with him and walked in front of him.

Shen Youlan followed behind, motioned for the editors she had brought to follow him, and swaggered into Jian Ning's temporary lounge under the envious eyes of others.

Jian Ning's lounge is probably the largest in the entire venue. It is said to be a lounge, but it is more like a preparation room or a dressing room.The inside is like a small warehouse, with all kinds of sewing machines and mannequin tables, as well as a small dressing table.

The clothes hanging on the stage, Shen Youlan recognized that they were the finale of tomorrow's big show.The rest are also pretty fantastic styles, some of the fabrics have been each other on the sofa, or even on the floor.

"A bunch of trash." Before Jian Ning could go in, the scolding came first, "The model is not coming on time, can't you rush me, and you want me to wait here?! When will I wait?!"

"Teacher Jane is like this..." Someone wanted to explain.

"I don't want to hear an explanation, so hurry up and hurry up." Jian Ning pointed to her diamond strap watch, "If I can't see them before ten o'clock, we won't open tomorrow's show, and they will be responsible for all the losses."

Shen Youlan waited for him to finish the training, saw him drinking water angrily with a thermos cup, and said: "...I've grown my temper recently."

"The first day you met me?" Jian Ning put the cup down after finishing her drink, and said irritably, "If you want to ask any questions, I'll give you 10 minutes."

Shen Youlan put her hands in her pockets and said, "It's mainly about the design concepts of the autumn and winter new products of the brand on the catwalk tomorrow, and you can say something about ZPaii."

Hearing "ZPaii", Jian Ning obviously paused.

"Why?" he asked.

"This is the brand you supervised. You have never supervised the design of fashion brands before." Shen Youlan turned her head slightly.

"I'm just the supervisor of the design, and this is not my brand." Jian Ning squinted at him, "Why, why are you interested in it?"

"The main reason is that this year's brand is very popular, with a high degree of topicality, and Su Zibo was invited to endorse it." Penny added, "Zhou Zhitan and Peng Xi co-founded, and invited popular traffic from the same company to endorse. Everyone is interested in this brand. It’s huge, and there’s a lot of demand from readers who want to know more.”

Jian Ning narrowed her eyes slightly, and switched legs to one side.

"Evaluate him from the perspective of your professional designer?" Penny said, "How did you think of choosing him?"

Jian Ning smiled: "I didn't think about him at first, but later it was a coincidence, someone recommended..."

Jian Ning's eyes slanted to Shen Youlan's side, but Shen Youlan didn't look at him, he put his hands in his pockets and looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Of course, the main thing is that the two principals are satisfied." Jian Ning spread her hands, "I have no objection either."

Shen Youlan didn't say anything, and changed her posture with her arms folded.

However, Shen Youlan's mind was still on the interview, but when it came to the topic of Su Zibo, Shen Youlan couldn't help but think of the phone call just now.

"Lance? Lance...!"

Shen Youlan came back to her senses, and found that she was in a daze for a long time, Jian Ning had already gone to talk to others, and Penny stood beside him and complained: "Why have you been absent-minded since you finished answering the phone just now?"

"What?" Shen Youlan said.

"That call just now!" Penny said, "Did something happen?"

"No." Shen Youlan shook her head, avoiding the topic, "Have you finished the interview?"

"Mr. Jian has something to do, let's talk about it later." Penny shook the recording pen in her hand.

"Then I'll go out to smoke." Shen Youlan said.

"Hey!--"

Shen Youlan was upset and ignored her, he walked out the door sideways, walked through the corridor, and arrived at the entrance of the stadium.

At night, under the big searchlights, the staff is nervously arranging the big curtain and adjusting the lights, as well as the red carpet laid under the feet. Tomorrow, there will be shining stars here, starting a new trend of this autumn and winter.

However, Shen Youlan seemed to have lost interest in these things all of a sudden. Holding the electronic cigarette in one hand, he looked down at the phone in the white mist.

The news about Shen Youlan and him still stopped at asking Su Zibo: ——Is it really all right?

Su Zibo did not reply to his message.

Shen Youlan took another sip, and called Su Zibo directly. It took a long time for Su Zibo to get through, and his voice was a little confused: "Um...huh?"

"What are you doing?" Shen Youlan said.

"Sleep..." Su Zibo said.

"Woke you up?" Shen Youlan asked, "You called me just now, what's the matter?"

"No." Su Zibo said, "Did you bring someone to the show tomorrow?"

"En." Shen Youlan responded.

"Okay, I wish you success." Su Zibo said, "I... I will continue to sleep."

"Okay." Shen Youlan said.

He hangs up.

Always feel wrong?

I don't know why, maybe it's because Su Zibo is not like this usually.These days, he is so busy that he does not touch the ground. During the day, he has to review the manuscripts of all related media, and make sure that their online media platform synchronizes all inquiries during the fashion week.In the evening, I have to socialize with other celebrities and brands, and I almost fall asleep when I get back to the hotel.

She has been focusing on this matter for several days, and has no mind to care about other things at all, but now before the show, she is a little worried about Su Zibo's situation.

The author has something to say:
