Recalcitrant

In the past few days, Qiao Yue can be said to be in high spirits and proud of the spring breeze. He even walks with the wind. The whole team is guessing whether he has obtained some excellent resources and is about to ascend from the ground.

In fact, nothing happy happened, but Qiao Yue found that the director's attitude towards him had changed subtly. Not only did he look a lot more pleasant, he even praised him for his talent today.

Chen Zhuo's affirmation greatly boosted Qiao Yue's confidence. He believed that in time, he would make a difference in the film industry.

After lunch, Qiao Yue excitedly went to look for Lu Shaoheng. As soon as he walked around the central garden, he saw Jiajia squatting on the steps of the small building, poking the ant nest for fun.

Seeing the girl here alone, Qiao Yue stepped forward, wondering: "It's noon, why are you basking in the sun here?

Jiajia's reaction was a little cold. She looked up at him and ignored him.

"Where's my Brother Lu?" Qiao Yue asked again.

This time, Jiajia finally had some reaction. She pointed to the top of her head and said sullenly, "It's on top."

As soon as Qiao Yue heard this, he raised his legs and was about to go upstairs, but was stopped by Jia Jia: "I advise you not to go up."

"What's the matter?" Qiao Yue stopped and asked puzzledly.

Jiajia wanted to say something, but finally opened her mouth and said dryly, "Forget it, it's nothing."

"What happened?" Seeing that Jiajia was in a bad mood, as if she was sulking with someone, Qiao Yue temporarily put Lu Shaoheng aside, came to Jiajia and squatted down, pretending to be a close brother: "Come on, tell me, and let the big star solve your problems."

Seeing his serious appearance, Jiajia was amused for some reason, and smiled with her lips pursed.She thought about it carefully, and said in a roundabout way: "If, I mean, if, if you find that someone you particularly respect may be cheated of your feelings, what will you do?"

"Uh." Brother Zhixin was at a loss for words for a while, and couldn't answer. In their gutter-like entertainment industry, there are many dirty things, and trivial things like cheating other people's feelings are not enough to make people think.

Qiao Yue's ambiguous attitude made Jiajia a little angry.She didn't bother to cover up, and asked directly: "Let me ask you, it is said on the Internet that Chen Yao is married, is it true?"

Before Qiao Yue could answer, she continued to fire with righteous indignation: "If he is already married and falls in love with someone else, is he cheating? Is he cheating on other people's feelings!" The more Jia Jia spoke, the more excited she became, and she cursed: "Bah , Shameless, scumbag!"

Hearing Jiajia scolded Chen Yao blatantly, Qiao Yue was at a loss: "Wait a minute, who did he marry? Whose feelings did he cheat on?"

"Zhang Luyu." Angrily, Jiajia threw the branch in her hand to the ground and said, "Didn't everyone on Weibo say that they were secretly married? The wedding scene was photographed, and Zhang Luyu was pregnant! A few days ago Today she brought her daughter to visit the class with her big belly, did you see it too?"

It turned out to be Zhang Luyu, that is indeed what he saw, Qiao Yue opened his mouth, hesitant to speak.

As an insider, Qiao Yue naturally knows some inside information. This is not a secret in the industry. Besides, he and one of the protagonists of this gossip are somewhat related. It is this person who made it possible for him to join Chen Zhuo's crew. Yes, even Chen Zhuo's project was able to be approved, and his credit is behind it.

In principle, he shouldn't tell the director's right and wrong, but seeing Jiajia so angry, Qiao Yue couldn't bear it, and made an exception to explain the ins and outs to her.

"I'm telling you something, you must not tell others." Qiao Yue moved to Jiajia's side, and said in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "Actually, this matter..."

After hearing Qiao Yue share the first-hand gossip in the industry, Jiajia's eyes widened: "So Zhang Luyu has indeed remarried, but her partner is not Chen Zhuo, but someone else?"

Qiao Yue glanced left and right, and quickly reminded her: "Keep down, where's the little broadcast?"

Jiajia covered her mouth.

"That's how things are." Qiao Yue shrugged and continued: "Anyway, it's been about two years. Zhang Luyu just returned to China, and was photographed by the media going to buy a wedding ring with a man. Chen exported to block the gun. Think about it, the friendship between the two of them for decades, there are still as many photos and videos in the same frame. I don't know."

Two years ago, it was the time when Chen Zhuo separated from Lu Shaoheng because of Ling Xiao's relationship. It was also the time when the rumors of Chen Zhuo's marriage were the most turbulent, and even attended the awarding ceremony of the Flying Eagle Award.Chen Zhuo didn't clarify this rumor in time, on the one hand, he wanted to understand Zhang Luyu's urgent need, and on the other hand, he was probably angry with Lu Shaoheng.

"They really have nothing in private?" Jia Jia didn't believe it, "Then why didn't he clarify?"

Qiao Yue looked puzzled: "Haven't their studio issued several statements?"

"The statement from your star studio is just a piece of waste paper, it's too hard to wipe your ass." Jiajia laughed mockingly, and said: "Besides, he has been photographed with Zhang Luyu so many times. "

"Sister, be reasonable." Qiao Yue said helplessly: "Should we public figures cut off contact with our relatives and friends because of these gossips? Personally, I am not an idol star who will be killed when he falls in love, so I will pass on my love."

When Jiajia heard it, she felt that it made sense, and she had an idea, and came up with another idea: "It's actually very easy to clarify the scandal, just let Zhang Luyu's husband come out and take a few steps."

Qiao Yue coughed lightly and said, "That person, it's not convenient to show up."

"Who is so mysterious?" Hearing what Qiao Yue said, Zhang Luyu's new husband seemed to have a lot of background, Jiajia asked curiously, "Who is Zhang Luyu's real partner?"

"I can't tell you that. That person's identity is sensitive." Qiao Yue pointed at the top of his head in a deceptive manner, "You can't tell the background. When the time comes in the future, it will be announced to the public." Qiao Yue told Jiajia again: "Yourself It’s good to know, but you can’t talk nonsense on the Internet, blowing up your account is still a trivial matter, beware of being invited to drink tea.”

Jia Jia made a zip gesture to her mouth, which made Joe feel more at ease.

The doubts in her heart were lifted, Jiajia was relieved, she didn't even care about the relationship problems of the respected person, she happily left Qiao Yue, and was going to have lunch.

Qiao Yue didn't take Jiajia's advice before he left, either. As soon as Jiajia left, he turned around and went upstairs.

The door on the second floor was not closed. Qiao Yue stepped on the last flight of stairs and saw two people on the bamboo couch under the window.

It was lunch break time, Lu Shaoheng was lying lazily on his side, his calves were bent out of shape, and he was taking a nap as usual, but his head was resting on another person's lap.

There was also a man sitting next to him. One hand of that man was casually wrapped around Lu Shaoheng's chest, while the other was holding a book and reading. The sunlight came in from the latticed window, making it difficult to see his face clearly. .

Two big men stay together, this posture is too ambiguous, no matter how you look at it, there is a problem, Qiao Yue suddenly regained his energy, and was about to find out, when he saw the sitting man put down his book and leaned over , kissed Lu Shaoheng on the mouth.

It was originally a kiss that could be split at the first touch, but Lu Shaoheng didn't let him go, but raised his chin and hooked him to kiss.

Qiao Yue blushed immediately, and he didn't want to leave or stay for a while.However, the more embarrassing thing was still behind, when the man raised his head, he suddenly saw Chen Zhuo's face!

Qiao Yue outside the door felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Looking back, he finally understood Jia Jia's "advice", and he was not the first victim.Watching the director fall in love will not help his career. Qiao Yue didn't care whether the people in the door would notice him, so he turned around and went downstairs.

The sound insulation of the small building is not very good. Just as Qiao Yue walked down the steps, Lu Shaoheng's voice faintly sounded upstairs: "Is someone here?"

Qiao Yue staggered on the soles of his feet.

Then he heard a voice that was always cold in his impression, and sometimes even stern, saying softly: "No one, but you should get up too, and you will get a headache if you take a long nap."

"I told you last night that you have old arms and legs, so take it easy." Lu Shaoheng complained angrily.

"Really? How did I remember that you didn't say that?" Chen Yan said with a smile at the end: "It's just right, I brought your little assistant back to squeeze your legs."

"Hey, it's starting to dig up old accounts again." Lu Shaoheng rolled over and sat up from the collapse, "I told you about the case last night. I really never liked Ling Xiao."

Qiao Yue covered his ears, took three steps at a time, and rushed down the steps quickly. His eyes were already useless, and if he continued to listen like this, he might lose his ears.

In the next few days, when Qiao Yue met Chen Zhuo and Lu Shaoheng together on the set, he always felt something was wrong.

Although he had already noticed that the two of them might be a bit tricky, and teased Lu Shaoheng from time to time, but seeing it with his own eyes, the shock in his heart was still different.

But soon, Qiao Yue didn't have many chances to witness such a scene.The scene in the hotel ended smoothly, and the crew moved to outside the town to shoot exterior scenes as planned.

This time the location is a forest at the foot of Xueshan Mountain. There is a freshwater lake hidden in the forest and a large meadow on the shore.When the weather is fine, the snow-capped mountains are reflected on the lake, like a mirror inlaid on the plateau.

It's just that the altitude here is high, there is no road, and the nearest villages are several miles away. There are many difficulties in shooting, and even electricity needs to be pulled up by a small three-wheeled generator.

An actor like Qiao Yue who doesn't have a heavy role in the role can say that after the day's role is over, he can go down the mountain and go back to the hotel in the town to rest.But it is impossible for Chen Zhuo and other staff members to spend a lot of time going back and forth every day, so they have to spend the night in the local village and come back after the filming is over.

After sending Chen Zhuo away, a thick pile of information has been accumulated on those who intend to take over the hotel. Lu Shaoheng can finally spare time to deal with this matter. Recently, he has been hanging out with Chen Zhuo all day long. It can be said that he has no intention of government affairs. Abandoned business.

It was not an easy task to transfer such a large hotel out. Lu Shaoheng met with several interested customers in a row, but in the end he failed to reach a cooperation.

Just when Lu Shaoheng's patience was exhausted, Jiajia said that there were two sincere bosses from H city, who were said to be developing real estate, and the business was quite big, and wanted to ask him to meet at the coffee shop opposite the hotel.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try one last time, Lu Shaoheng agreed.

When Lu Shaoheng arrived at the coffee shop on time, the other party was already drinking coffee on the seat in front of the window. Although they were real estate owners, these two people were very young, so they could be regarded as young and promising.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries for a short while, without much politeness, and officially entered the topic.

Lu Shaoheng is a person who does things as he pleases, and he doesn't care too much about gains and losses when he meets people who are pleasing to the eye.The personalities and ways of dealing with the two people on the opposite side were very suitable for him. Before finishing a cup of coffee, they had roughly finalized the hotel affairs.

There were a few middle school students sitting at the next table. They got together to do their homework and chatter about Chen Zhuo coming to the town to film.

I heard that in a few days, the crew will go to their school to shoot scenes, and the students are very excited.

Hearing them talking about Chen Zhuo, Lu Shaoheng took out his phone and took a look.Their last conversation was at noon today, when Chen Zhuo sent him a photo of wild flowers by the lake.

It's really evil, Lu Shaoheng thought, obviously only a few days apart, and he started to miss him a little bit again.

"Boss Lu also chases stars?" Seeing that Lu Shaoheng was absent-minded, his thoughts flew to the next table, and the person sitting opposite him joked.

"Yeah, that's all it is." Lu Shaoheng generously admitted, put away his phone, smiled apologetically and said, "What did we talk about just now?"

Lu Shaoheng was not the only one who was interested in the topics of the students, the owner of the coffee shop also joined in enthusiastically after hearing that they were chatting enthusiastically.

"What's so great about taking a scene, I'll tell you in secret that in the past year or so, Chen Zhuo has come to my store almost every month." The boss pouted, raised his chin and nodded in Lu Shaoheng's direction, saying: "Here , I sit by the window every time, usually for a whole day, did I use the loudspeaker to publicize it? Look at your layout."

"Are you bragging?" The students obviously didn't believe it. When the boss was talking nonsense, since the crew came to the town to film, every store said that he had a celebrity patronized: "He is a big star, and he comes to your store every month to sit and sit. What are you doing? Could it be that I have taken a fancy to you?"

After finishing speaking, they looked around the boss's face without concealment, and felt that it was unlikely.

"What are you lying to, I have photos to prove it." The boss leaned out from behind the bar and opened his cell phone unconvinced.

The students gathered around one after another, seeing that the photo of the boss and Chen Zhuo was really on the screen, they chattered together: "Hey, it's really Chen Zhuo."

"What is he doing here?"

"Boss, do you know something inside?"

……

The discussion among the students at this end was in full swing, when Lu Shaoheng at the other end suddenly put the coffee cup on the table and stood up abruptly.

On the sofa in Dr. Zhong's office, Mr. Wang, who lent him a large sum of money, appeared like rain in time. Chen Zhuo was very familiar with Qi Baizhen... The boss' words were like a thread, and all the details in his mind They were all connected together to form a complete clue, which made him eager to see Chen Zhuo immediately.

"Boss Lu, what's the matter?" The person opposite opened his eyelids and glanced at him.

"Mr. Yu, Mr. Jiang, I'm really sorry. I'll be here today, and I'll contact you later." Lu Shaoheng came back to his senses, took out two hundred-yuan notes from his wallet in an old-fashioned way, pressed them under the cup, and said to the two : "I have something to go first."
