Recalcitrant

Outside the temporary lounge, Xiao Li hurriedly stopped Xu Luojia.

"Mr. Xu, you can't go in now, Mr. Xu!"

"Where's Mr. Chen?" After Xu Luojia followed Lu Shaoheng, she was now promoted to Concubine Xu. Her status was quite different. She already regarded the production team as her own business, so naturally she wouldn't pay attention to the small scene notes.

He stretched his neck and asked loudly, "I want to see Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen, are you there?"

The field reporter dutifully stopped him: "You can't go in, there is a meeting inside."

"Go away." Xu Luojia pushed away the person in front of him, with all his strength, he rushed into the lounge without hesitation.

Xiao Li didn't prevaricate Xu Luojia. Chen Zhuo was indeed in a meeting. There were several people sitting around a small table. Several key figures from the director's production team and the screenwriting team were present today.

Xu Luojia didn't greet anyone, skipped the director as soon as he entered the door, and asked Chen Zhuo directly: "Mr. Chen, why haven't there been any announcements from me recently?"

"Mr. Xu, your current drama is over." Jiang Xiaobo's expression became subtle when he saw that it was Xu Luojia.

The time limit given by Chen Zhuo to Lu Shaoheng has expired, and Lu Shaoheng did not deal with the romantic debt he had left in the crew. Instead, Xu Luojia relied on his boss's backing to embolden him and domineering in the crew.

Jiang Xiaobo flipped through the two pages of the notice sheet in his hand, and said to Xu Luojia, "Your next scene will be on location in half a month."

"It's not like this in the script. Obviously, I still have a lot of scenes that I haven't filmed." Xu Luojia didn't even look at Jiang Xiaobo, and pointed her eyes at Chen Yao. Director, this is the book made by the boss himself."

"The screenwriter teachers are discussing this matter, so you can just listen to it when you come. Mr. Lu's previous version of the script was very exciting, but there were some plot loopholes, so it was officially invalidated, but the teachers also made some changes to the original script. " Jiang Xiaobo didn't know whether he was pretending to be stupid or really confused, so he explained to Xu Luojia patiently: "The revised script will be sent to you soon, don't worry, there is no change in your role, and there is no need to do anything special You can rest assured and wait for the announcement to make arrangements.”

The implication of Jiang Xiaobo's words is obvious, Xu Luojia's dream of "two male protagonists" was shattered, and he was beaten back to his original form.

The duck in his hand flew away, how could Xu Luojia be reconciled, and continued to argue: "But the boss said..."

Hearing Xu Luojia mentioning Lu Shaoheng again and again, Chen Zhuo finally raised his head from the script.

"What did the boss promise you? It's the boss's business. This is the crew. I'm in charge of everything." He conveniently picked up the flying pages scattered on the desktop, handed them to the assistant behind him to sort out and copy them, and handed one to Xu Luojia along the way. Eyes: "What do you want extra, or hold back, go directly to him to solve it."

After Chen Zhuo spoke like this, Xu Luojia's attitude softened immediately. Besides, everyone knows about the changes that happened in Juxing, and the future is still unknown. He has to prepare for himself.

"Brother Jiang, teachers, can I trouble everyone to avoid it for a while, there are some things I want to talk to Mr. Chen alone." Xu Luojia returned to his humble and harmless appearance before.

Jiang Xiaobo looked at Chen Zhuo, Chen Zhuo nodded, Jiang Xiaobo understood, and led everyone out.

After everyone else in the lounge had left, the corners of Xu Luojia's mouth twitched, and she suddenly became charming.He walked up to Chen Zhuo slowly, spread his legs, and sat on Chen Zhuo's lap without seeing anyone.

Chen Zhuo's eyes moved with his movements, and he didn't refuse.

Xu Luojia looked at Chen Zhuo affectionately, and he was sure of his attitude in his heart.He put his hands around Chen Zhuo's neck, blinked his eyelids, and immediately shed two lines of tears: "Mr. Chen, I have no choice but to follow Mr. Lu. During this time, I miss you every day..."

I have to admit that this Xu Luojia looks really good, and it's even more touching when he's crying like rain.

Chen Yao ambiguously kneaded Xu Luojia's waist with one hand, stroked his cheek with the other hand, gently scratched his skin with his fingertips, and then went all the way down, pinching his small and delicate chin.

"Why, did Lu Shaoheng treat you badly?" Chen Yao asked with concern.

"Who is he good to?" Xu Luojia pursed her mouth, and complained to Chen Zhuo aggrievedly, as if she had suffered all the grievances from Lu Shaoheng: "In his eyes, I am nothing more than a new thing, and he will come when he asks. Swipe away."

"So?" Chen Zhuo smiled softly.

Xu Luojia snuggled into Chen Zhuo's arms and murmured, "So, Teacher Chen, I want to come back to you, is that okay?"

Chen Zhuo didn't agree immediately, but raised his hand to caress the back of Xu Luojia's neck, making him look up at him.

"But you've already slept in Lu Shaoheng's bed." He leaned forward and approached Xu Luojia, almost touching his lips: "Why do you think I still want you?"

Xu Luojia was stunned for a moment, Chen Zhuo's voice was as warm and charming as the sunshine in spring, but his eyes were as cold as ice floes in a cold pool, making him feel cold all over his body.

"Things in this world are often a gamble." Chen Yao continued to say unhurriedly: "Since you have made a choice, you have to bear the consequences."

Xu Luojia stared blankly at Chen Zhuo for a while, then laughed abruptly, and tore off the mask layer by layer: "Look at the time when Juxing has an accident, don't take Lu Shaoheng seriously , You are really kind and righteous, Mr. Chen."

Faced with Xu Luojiabiao's sudden change of face, Chen Yao seemed to have expected it a long time ago. He was not angry or surprised, but just looked at him quietly.

"What's so great about you?" At this point, Xu Luojia didn't want to pretend any more, and showed his true face: "Do you think you can get where you are today because of your good filming or acting? ? Go to the rental house near the Film Academy and see how many people are more talented than you, which one is not unknown."

"That's a good point, continue." Chen Zhuo nodded deeply.

"If you didn't have such a good birth, if you didn't have the father of a famous director, if you didn't have the capital to support you, what's the difference between you and a cat or dog like us?" The expression on Xu Luojia's face gradually became ferocious.

"However, I heard something very interesting recently." Xu Luojia laughed sinisterly: "Mr. Chen, you retired at the peak of your career, did you really retire unintentionally? Could it be because of Bai..."

"Yo, today is very lively?"

Before Xu Luojia finished speaking, he was interrupted by a male voice, and the precarious colored steel door was pushed away, and Lu Shaoheng appeared outside the door leisurely.

Xu Luojia seemed to be stuck, his face was blank for a while, but he soon came back to his senses.

His acting skills throughout his life had been brought to the extreme at this moment, he struggled out of Chen Zhuo's arms with a chaste and strong attitude, and rushed towards Lu Shaoheng like a gust of wind.

"Boss Lu, Boss Lu, it's a good thing you're here." Xu Luojia threw herself into Lu Shaoheng's arms, crying so hard that she couldn't even finish her sentence: "I've already said that I don't want to, but Boss Chen insists, insists..."

"What's wrong with being so good?" Lu Shaoheng glanced at Chen Yao, embraced Xu Luojia, hugged Xu Luojia in his arms, and comforted him carefully: "Okay, okay, don't cry, it doesn't look good if your eyes are swollen from crying."

Lu Shaoheng's coming to the crew was already eye-catching, and the staff who came and went stopped when they heard the movement, and looked inside curiously.

Seeing people watching, Xu Luojia cried harder.Chen Zhuo was still sitting in the position just now, watching the big scene in front of him, indifferent.

Xu Luojia twitched and lay in Lu Shaoheng's arms for 10 minutes, and finally calmed down. Then Lu Shaoheng stroked his hair and said, "I surprised you today, leave the rest to me."

Xu Luojia's eyes were red, and he sobbed: "Mr. Lu, you have to make the decision for me."

"Don't worry, it will." Lu Shaoheng looked at the person in his arms dotingly, and said softly, "I'll ask Ling Xiao to take you back. Starting tomorrow, you don't have to come again."

When Xu Luojia heard that the topic was not right, she couldn't continue the crying scene, so she suddenly raised her head to look at Lu Shaoheng, her eyes widened: "Boss..."

"As an actor, since you want to act, you have to act to the end. Only when you believe in the act can the audience enter the play." Lu Shaoheng let go of the hand around his waist, patted his arm earnestly, and said : "Luo Jia, if you are as restless as you are, you need to practice a lot."

Xu Luojia was completely dumbfounded: "Boss Lu..."

"Luo Jia, the most indispensable thing in this industry is talented and smart people. Not everyone can succeed." Ling Xiao's figure appeared outside the door, and Lu Shaoheng waved his hand a little tiredly, and said, "Go."

Naturally, Xu Luojia refused to give up, cried, made trouble, and hanged himself outside the door, spattered for a while, and was finally dragged away by Ling Xiao and several field staff.

When the farce was over, the crowd who watched the excitement also dispersed. Not long ago, the lounge was not crowded, and now only Chen Zhuo and Lu Shaoheng were left.

Chen Zhuo didn't mention what happened just now, but asked Lu Shaoheng as if nothing happened, "Is the company busy recently?"

"What can happen to me?" Lu Shaoheng closed the door behind him, and leaned leisurely on the door frame: "If you hit Juxing, you should have this calamity."

"That's right." Chen Zhuo said with a smile: "However, there are many capable people in your company, and when Mr. Lu is gone, there will naturally be someone to take over. A little wind and waves can't overturn this big ship."

But after the big ship changed hands, it is hard to say whether he would like to give this "young owner" a ride.

"Chen Zhuo, that's why I came here today." Lu Shaoheng suddenly turned serious, and said to Chen Zhuo: "I want you to do me a favor."

"Oh?" Lu Shaoheng didn't explicitly ask Chen Yao to help him, but Chen Yao seemed to have known that Lu Shaoheng would come, and he also knew that he would say this: "This is not the attitude of asking for help."

There was a knowing smile on Lu Shaoheng's face, he walked up to Chen Yao, and suddenly asked without end: "Did he kiss you just now?"

Chen Zhuo asked back, "What do you think?"

Lu Shaoheng bent down, did not speak, his eyes lingered on Chen Zhuo's face first, then rubbed his thumb on Chen Zhuo's lips, lowered his head and bit it hard, and his tongue broke into his mouth unceremoniously .

Chen Zhuo leaned back, wrapped his arms around his waist, and let Lu Shaoheng indulge himself.

This kiss was particularly provocative. Lu Shaoheng licked and bit aggressively, rampaging in Chen Yao's mouth. It didn't take much effort, and both of them were out of breath.

Just when Chen Yao thought that he was going to do it to the end here, Lu Shaoheng raised his head, moved back a little, and distanced himself from Chen Yao: "This is the deposit."

He looked into Chen Zhuo's eyes, and said with a smile, "As for the rest... I'll pay you after it's done."

***

One month after Lu Heping fell ill, Juxing's board of directors suddenly announced a resolution - Lu Shaoheng would continue to serve as the deputy general manager of Juxing Film and Television, and temporarily entrust Lu Heping's rights.

This result was beyond everyone's expectations, because the board of directors on that day originally planned to appoint An Ran, the current wife of Mr. Lu, as the new president.

An Ran is a very capable woman. Although she has not formally served in Starstar, she has been behind many major decisions within the company over the years, and has many supporters.

On the day of the board of directors, all processes were going on as usual, but no one expected that Lu Shaoheng, who usually had no interest in his career, would intervene and suddenly appear on the scene in the middle of the meeting.

There were many coveters for the vacated position of president, and several internal forces fought to the death in private, but ignored Lu Shaoheng, who was more qualified than any of them, and allowed him to enter the finals safely.

However, everyone can see Lu Shaoheng's usual style, so when he proposed to take over his father's power, the directors present at the meeting and the senior executives present disagreed.

After all these years, Lu Shaoheng had a negative attitude towards company affairs, and no one knew what made him suddenly change his mind.

Later, it was Chen Guangyu who spoke, and An Ran mediated from the sidelines and voluntarily gave up taking over as the president. A few days ago, a consensus was reached: the appointment and dismissal of the new president will be postponed, and Lu Shaoheng will keep his original position and take charge of the company as an acting agent.

In the evening, when Lu Shaoheng came out of the company, the board of directors had already announced the latest personnel resolution to the whole company.

Ignoring the different gazes around him, he stood alone on the side of the road, waiting for Ling Xiao to drive the car up from the underground garage.

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and a drop of rain fell on Lu Shaoheng's forehead. When he raised his head, he happened to see the huge signboard of Gathering Stars on the top floor of the building. Under the cover of thick fog, only a halo of light remained.

The heavy rain fell quickly, and Ling Xiao just arrived by car.At the same time, the screen of Lu Shaoheng's mobile phone lit up, and it was Chen Zhuo who sent a message.

Lu Shaoheng looked at the address on the message, with an unclear smile on his face.As expected, Chen Zhuo didn't do business that lost money, and just after the matter was completed, he urged the "final payment" to come.

He put away his mobile phone, bent down and got into the car, and said to Ling Xiao, "Go to the Peninsula Hotel."

The author says:

*Nothing happened in Peninsula Hotel, don't expect it.

*Chen Guangyu is Chen Zhuo's father, as mentioned earlier.

*Xiao Lu is not a male classmate without a story.
