After the scumbag awakens
Chapter 69 Starlight
Three years later.
A hotel lounge in the city center.
Zhou Chen leaned back on the sofa, resting his forehead with one hand, and half of his face was covered with his outstretched five fingers. Only his thin lips showed a little trace of fatigue between his fingers.
The night was dark.
Thick darkness spread silently, accompanied by boundless silence, gradually engulfing the empty room.
Zhou Chen hadn't calmed down like this for a long time.
In the past few years, he has been working continuously, and his body is overloaded. It is inevitable that he will be physically and mentally exhausted, but he still dare not let himself stop.
It's empty.
The dark night, the cold pillow, only the temperature of one person... This long and lonely time has no end in sight.
Sometimes, in an unoccupied office, he looks down from the 47-story building, and the lights of thousands of houses outside the window are shining like a galaxy, which will give him a sense of unreality and illusion.
It was as if all this was a dream, and when the nightmare passed, the person who had made an appointment with him would stand in front of him, smile slightly, and gently call him Teacher Zhou.
A familiar cramping pain suddenly appeared in the heart.
Zhou Chen closed his eyes dejectedly, frowning and enduring the pain.
At this time, there was a slight knock at the door.
The man's brows were tightly furrowed. Because of a deep crease between his brows that had been frowning all year round, he was in unbearable pain, and his jaw muscles tensed. "Zhang Zhu, you better have something important to say."
No one responded.
After a moment of silence, slight footsteps stopped in front of him.
It seems that someone stopped.
Zhou Chen was impatient at first, and he was even more displeased at this moment. He was about to reprimand him, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice——
"Teacher Zhou."
Heartbeat stopped suddenly.
Zhou Chen opened his eyes suddenly.
He raised his head anxiously, staring in disbelief at the direction from which the sound came.
In the dim light, the young man standing beside the coffee table was tall and tall, and his complexion was extremely white with a wine red shirt, which seemed to be shining brightly under the moonlight.
He lowered his head slightly, raised his brows lightly, and there seemed to be a smile floating in those twinkling peach eyes.
The heartbeat seemed to burst through the chest.
Zhou Chen gritted his teeth, clenched his hands into fists, and his body began to tremble slightly and uncontrollably.
The man shouted again: "Teacher Zhou."
The slightly rising tail sound carries a bit of familiar wantonness.
But this sound seemed to break the dream.
Zhou Chen stood up abruptly, and ruthlessly swept the objects on the coffee table to the ground, making a loud and ear-piercing crackling sound, "Get lost!"
His eyes were scarlet, his chest heaved and heaved: "Get out!"
The young man was taken aback by his extreme reaction, and the casualness he had pretended to be at first dissipated, and a trace of uneasiness faintly flashed in his eyes, but this time the opportunity was rare, he had been planning for a long time, and he really didn't want to give up just like that.
So the young man softened his tone, and coquettishly wanted to grab the corner of Zhou Chen's clothes, "Teacher Zhou——"
Zhou Chen looked at him coldly, his cold and indifferent gaze made the young man's movements freeze in mid-air, and he didn't dare to get any closer.
His tone was extremely cold, "Can't you understand people's words?"
The man seemed to have regained his composure, but his eyes were terribly dark, "I tell you to get out."
The young man was locked in by such captivating gazes, and a sense of trembling involuntarily rose in his heart.
He squeezed his palms hard to stay rational, his brain turned with difficulty, and tried to recall Qi Ran's posture. After a while, he found the right angle and raised an innocent smile, "Mr. Zhou, I'm your fan and I've admired you for a long time."
"Don't imitate him again," Zhou Chen sneered, and the chill in those dark eyes was heavier than that of Frost Snow, "No matter what your purpose is, I guarantee that you will die an ugly death."
The smile on the young man's face froze slightly, and then his eyes showed a bit of sadness of being wronged by the idol, and he lowered his head in frustration: "President Zhou misunderstood, I just admire you purely, and have no other purpose."
"You are my idol, I joined the circle because of you, my name is Qin Ran, I am..."
Zhou Chen interrupted unceremoniously, raised his hand and pointed out the door, "Don't make me say it a third time, get out."
Qin Ran bit his lower lip in embarrassment, with a weeping look on his face, he said softly, "Mr. Zhou, people always look forward. I know you once had a sweetheart, but he has passed away..."
Zhou Chen slammed the glass on the ground: "Shut up!"
Panting, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "If you don't want to be blocked, immediately disappear before my eyes."
……
Unknown to the two people in the room, this conversation was all heard by the third person outside the door, and accidentally passed through the live broadcast room on his mobile phone, and quickly spread on the Internet.
Weibo suddenly exploded.
Qin Ran is a small star who has recently become popular in the Dangai web drama. Because he has a face that is [-]% similar to Qi Ran, he has been playing the banner of "Little Qi Ran" since his debut, attracting a lot of attention from the outside world .
Especially this time, because the web drama was out of the circle, many "unicorns" who were upset paid attention to him, and injected a lot of emotions from the past as if they had found a substitute.
Most of the love and protection that was too late to give fell on him, as if to make up for something.
What's more, the other party openly expressed admiration and nostalgia for Ran in front of the media, and claimed to be a member of "Kirin", and the persona was a simple and cheerful boy who loves to laugh, which really made many fans feel good.
Therefore, when the opponent threw out black material, they couldn't help feeling sorry for him, and spontaneously took up arms to protect him, and didn't want this boy who was completely similar to bear such a heavy life.
But this video completely exposed his true face.
No one didn't know that Zhou Chenqi never forgot about Ran.
At the Cannes Gala that year, the organizer bestowed the best actor laurel on a deceased actor for the first time, and when domestic debates were still raging about why Qi Ran was absent from the awards ceremony, the award presenters regretfully revealed the truth.
The whole Weibo vibrated, almost no one believed the news.
Everyone asked for an explanation from Aite Qiran and the studio, but at that time the manager fainted several times in grief, and didn't pay attention at all. At that time of confusion, it was Zhou Shen who made the statement.
His public confession and condolences are still hot on the Internet.
In the past few years, there have been countless explosive dramas, and many CPs have been derived, but the number one CP super talk is still occupied by Jinghao CP, but their super talk profile pictures have been changed to black, and their profiles have also been changed to——
Without you for the rest of my life, how quiet is the time.
At this time, someone stepped on the bones of the dead and wanted to climb up. The "Kirin" who was betrayed without telling the truth couldn't bear it, and CP fans couldn't accept it, and even passers-by felt a little uncomfortable watching it.
Countless people fired at Qin Ran, and his black entries were frequently searched on the wheel.
There was no need for Zhou Chen to do anything else, those fans who had mispaid their true feelings had completely knocked him down.
Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.
Qin Ran didn't expect that he hadn't climbed Zhou Shen, used capital to pave the way for his future, and his star dream had been completely shattered, and he still lost to this group of fans whom he despised and thought he could fool and deceive at will.
Termination of the endorsement contract, termination of the contract by the company, high liquidated damages, friends turning their faces and swearing at each other, one by one, one by one, weighed heavily on Qin Ran.
Only at this time, it was too late to regret.
No one would believe his fake tears anymore.
……
Assistant Zhang followed the trend on the Internet, and when everything was settled, he respectfully reported to Zhou Chen, "Mr. Zhou, the matter has been handled according to your instructions."
Zhou Chen pressed the center of his eyebrows wearily, and nodded slightly.
Assistant Zhang looked at the man above him, and seemed hesitant to speak. After thinking for a moment, he said truthfully: "During this time, it seems that there are three parties who are also paying attention to this matter."
There was no trace of surprise on Zhou Chen's face, he waved his hands expressionlessly: "Well, don't worry about it."
Assistant Zhang nodded, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly when he thought of the forces behind the tripartite forces.

Two weeks later.
H city film and television base.
This period of time is not the peak tourist season, and there is no crew filming in this palace area, only security guards and ticket inspectors are still on duty.
The morning in midsummer was very hot, and it was still seven o'clock in the morning, and the scorching sun had already made people restless.
The ticket inspector was about to take a break in the air-conditioned room while no one was there, when he suddenly saw a man walking straight towards the ticket gate.
The man in black wore a pair of sunglasses, covering most of his face, but he could see a stern aura all over his body.
The ticket inspector felt a little familiar for some reason, and was checking his ticket when he suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Zhou, actor Zhou——"
Zhou Chen glanced sideways at her.
The ticket inspector unconsciously lowered his voice, "Why are you here?"
She said and patted her head: "Ah, by the way, you have filmed here before."
Zhou Chen nodded, didn't say anything, and walked in through the turnstile with a cold expression.
The ticket inspector watched him walk away and couldn't help muttering, "It's strange, today is not a special holiday..."
This sentence drifted into Zhou Chen's ears.
He hooked the corners of his mouth in a self-deprecating manner, accelerated his steps, and passed through the nine-curved corridor.
Today is indeed not a special day.
It was only six years ago, on this same hot morning, he attended the opening ceremony of the crew and met Qi Ran here.
At that time, he was stubborn and refused to admit it, and even laughed at the other party in front of Director Zheng as a vase, picky and embarrassing, and didn't give a good face, but in fact he just didn't want to admit his heartbeat.
"Sorry……"
Zhou Chen smiled wryly, looked down at the empty courtyard in front of him, and couldn't help blushing, "I shouldn't have forced you."
He closed his eyes and raised his palm slightly, as if in this way, he could touch the person he met many years ago across a long time.
In the twilight of the morning, the young man with a handsome face stood under the branch of the peach blossom, and smiled at him, "Teacher Zhou."
Since then, karma is doomed, and he is doomed.
"But……"
He choked up and couldn't speak, the syllables squeezed out of his stinging throat were broken and hoarse, "You promised me, wait for me to come back..."
**
A long, long time ago, when he first heard the bad news in China, he took the plane back to Cannes overnight despite the fact that he had just got off the plane, but he couldn't even see Qi Ran's last side.
Liang Yun's hair turned gray almost overnight, and his whole body seemed to be drained of energy, because he was the last person to see Qi Ran that night.
The last words Qi Ran said to him were——
"After today, I want to stay here."
Liang Yun didn't understand at that time, he just thought he liked the seaside scenery.
But then he said: "Zhou Chen, the moon should hang high in the sky, and we shouldn't restrain him."
The author says:
Alas, this is how the world should end.
The World of Immortal Cultivation is waiting for me to sort out the outline, thank you for your support.
ps: Please understand if there are any imprecise parts related to Cannes, just take it as an overhead
