Fu Shanhai hung up the phone, and the first sentence was:

"Can you go back tomorrow?"

Yu He was taken aback, quickly calculated the remaining workload, and frowned: "...if we can finish the two orders today, it should be about the same."

Fu Shanhai got up immediately: "Let's go."

……

Here, Fu Shanhai quickly speeded up his work progress, and finished a day's work in one night.

Over there, Jiang He has been studying the script for two days.

He saw Zhou Xia's script yesterday and recited it after reading it once. He felt that he was too bad in comparison, so he decided to recite the lines as well.

……

Then he discovered that his few roles were all ancient dramas.

The dialogue is all in classical Chinese!

Jiang He tried his best to identify various uncommon words in it, stumbled and recited it for a while, feeling...

Forget it.

too difficult.

"How did brother Zhou Xia do it..." Jiang He leaned on the sofa, wondering, "Why can't I recite it?"

……

At this time, the landline in the living room suddenly rang.

The sound startled Jiang He.

Since he moved in, counting the previous three years, it has been almost four years, and he has never heard this landline ring.

I always thought that was bad.

It turns out...it's not broken?

The landline rang persistently, Jiang He put down the script, ran to the landline in two steps, and glanced at the caller ID on the small screen.

A string of numbers seems to be a fixed number.

……who is it?

Jiang He hesitated, or did he pick it up?

"Hello? Are you?"

"Hello, is this Jiang He? I'm the security room downstairs." A middle-aged man's voice came through the phone, "Someone is looking for you."

Jiang He was taken aback: "... who?"

The phone seemed to be picked up by another person: "Jiang He!"

……

Jiang He's pupils shrank, and he knew who he was in an instant.

On the other end of the phone, the man smiled politely and hypocritically: "Haha, do you know who I am? Long time no see, how are you now?"

"..." Jiang He used it for a long time before he said the next sentence, "...you are looking for me?"

"You child," the man said with a bit of reproach in his tone, "you recognized me, why didn't you call me?"

……

Jiang He took a deep breath and spoke slowly, with a trembling voice: "...Uncle."

……

On the other end of the phone, Sun Jianshe smiled with satisfaction: "Hey!"

He turned his head and immediately became proud: "Look, I told you, I am really Jiang He's uncle, you still don't believe me!"

The middle-aged man in the security room was a little embarrassed: "...you didn't make an appointment in advance..."

"What's the appointment?" Sun Jianshe hung up the phone with raised eyebrows, "I'm coming to see my nephew, do I still need to make an appointment! By the way, which room does my nephew live in?"

……

……

Fu Shanhai came back from the morning plane, and it was almost noon when he landed.

He rushed back to the company, and Yu He followed behind in a hurry.

Just as the two got into the car, Fu Shanhai's phone rang again.

Fu Shanhai picked it up, and after hearing a few sentences, his brows frowned.

"Is there a problem with the contract?"

The other party explained a few words, and Fu Shanhai asked: "...how much is the liquidated damages?"

……

"Got it, I'm going now."

Yu He was taken aback when he heard his last sentence: "Aren't you going back to the company?"

"Let's go to Liuyue Group first," Fu Shanhai said, "There is something wrong with Ye Lele and her agency."

Yu He was taken aback for a moment: "Ye Lele?

Fu Shanhai said: "She contacted me before and said that she intends to sign with Shanhai Xingguang, but the company won't let her go."

"Now that the contract has expired, Liuyue Group has found an excuse and is unwilling to terminate the contract. There is already a mess over there."

Fu Shanhai's face was not very good-looking.

He rushed back with the stars and the moon, just to see Jiang He, but he had to deal with these things when he came back.

Ye Lele had only signed an actor contract with Shanhai Xingguang before, and her own agency contract was still with Liuyue Group, but Liuyue Group never let anyone go. After Ye Lele became popular, they even overbearingly asked her to directly renew the contract for ten years , otherwise her follow-up resources will be cut off.

Ye Lele was unwilling to renew the contract, so she approached Shanhai Xingguang at that time, and the two parties agreed that Shanhai Xingguang would sign her when Ye Lele's term expired.

But now that there is a problem with the contract, Fu Shanhai has to solve it himself.

He sighed. Ye Lele is Jiang He's friend and someone he cares about very much. Jiang He probably doesn't want her to encounter such a thing.

Forget it, let's come back to Jiang He after it's settled.

When Fu Shanhai arrived at the gate of Liuyue Group, he suddenly turned around and said to Yu He, "Go back to the company first."

Yu He raised his head: "Aren't you waiting?"

"No, you go back to the company," Fu Shanhai said, "Go and see Jiang He, and see if he has had a good meal recently."

Yu He couldn't help laughing, and replied, "Okay."

Sure enough, the boss still misses Jiang He, and he doesn't even want to wait for such a short time, wanting to know his news immediately.

……

……

On the other end, Jiang He stood in the room in a daze, listening to the continuous "beep beep" on the phone, and didn't recover for a long time.

Sun Jianshe...how did he come?

He hadn't seen Sun Jianshe for many years.

Ever since he left home and came to City A, his uncle's family has completely lost contact.

When he became popular because of foodies and became very controversial, he didn't see any news from his uncle and the others.

Why... come now suddenly?

Before Jiang He could clear his mind, the doorbell rang suddenly.

Startled, he stared at the door for a few seconds before walking over to open it.

Sun Jianshe and Wang Aimei stood at the door, smiling very happily.

Wang Aimei looked at Jiang He excitedly as she entered the door: "Hey, I haven't seen you for a year, and our Xiaohe has grown up!"

Sun Jianshe also followed in: "Jiang He, you are a big star now, and those relatives in the family are very happy, asking us about you all day long."

Jiang He forced a smile twice: "...uncle, aunt."

Wang Aimei suddenly yelled out the door: "Why don't you come in! Are you polite!"

Jiang He was taken aback, then turned to look at the door.

There was a young man standing outside the door, slightly younger than Jiang He, with dyed yellow hair, standing at the door reluctantly and kicking the wall, as if he didn't want to come in.

The second Jiang He and he looked at each other, he clearly saw the surprise, hesitation, and fleeting disdain in the other's eyes.

"Sun Hao, come in!" Sun Jianshe yelled at him, his voice a little louder.

Sun Hao finally entered the door, went straight to the sofa, sat down and took out his mobile phone, ignoring them.

Sun Jianshe looked at Jiang He with a little embarrassment: "This kid has been like this since he was a child, and you know it, don't mind."

Jiang He glanced at Sun Hao and said nothing.

Yes, he has indeed been like this since he was a child. He is indifferent and stubborn in front of outsiders, but in fact he loves to tease people.

The few times Jiang He went to his uncle's house, he suffered from him, and then he was unwilling to go again.

Sun Jianshe and Wang Aimei didn't know the reason, and said that Jiang He was ignorant, and they had to trouble them to come and see Jiang He in person.

Jiang He never explained this, because he knew that in the eyes of Sun Jianshe and Wang Aimei, their children were well-behaved and cute, and they would never do anything that hurt others.

Hearing them talking about him, Sun Hao glared at them impatiently, and then saw the snacks and fruit plate on the coffee table, his eyes lit up instantly, and he picked them up and started eating.

……

Sun Jianshe sat down, rubbed his hands, and looked at Jiang He: "Jiang He, I haven't seen you for a year. I didn't expect you to become a star now."

Jiang He nodded: "Well, are you here... for something?"

What he said was very straightforward. Wang Aimei was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Hey, it's okay. It's been a long time since I saw you. I want to come and see you."

"Did you come to see me specifically? Thank you." Jiang He said.

Sun Jianshe glanced at her, then coughed twice: "Well... Actually..."

Wang Aimei elbowed Sun Jianshe suddenly, and Sun Jianshe immediately fell silent.

Sun Hao ate half of the blueberries, and suddenly stood up: "I want to go to the toilet."

Sun Jianshe then stood up, with an angry expression on his face: "You are so troublesome, if you don't go outside, you have to go to the toilet in someone else's house!"

Sun Hao was impatient for a moment: "Why, his house is so expensive, I can't even go to the toilet?"

Sun Jianshe became angry: "How do you talk, you can see for yourself, Jiang He had the same grades as you back then, how much better he is now than you!"

Not to be outdone, Sun Hao retorted: "That's because he didn't go to college. If I didn't go to college and went to work directly, I still earn a lot of money now!"

"Fart!" Sun Jianshe glared at him fiercely, "If you don't go to college, you can earn ass money, which company doesn't look at diplomas when recruiting people now!"

Sun Hao wanted to retort, but Wang Aimei had already grabbed him: "What are you arguing about! How ugly, isn't it just a toilet!"

She looked at Jiang He and smiled as if showing weakness: "Xiao He, where is the toilet in your house?"

Jiang He looked down at the ground, raised his hand slightly, and pointed to the compartment next to the door.

Sun Hao went to the bathroom, and the living room became quiet.

Wang Aimei sat a little closer to Jiang He.

"Xiaohe, the house you live in now belongs to the company, right?"

"……Um."

"Then... is the rent expensive?"

"...The company's house does not require rent."

"No rent?" Wang Aimei's eyes lit up a little, and then she looked sad again, "But you live alone in City A, so you must have a house."

"I heard that houses in City A are very expensive. We have a big house there, and you can't even buy a suburban toilet in City A!"

Wang Aimei looked at Jiang He: "Where are you going to buy a house in the future? Let me tell you, if you save money, it would be great to buy a house in our hometown. The scenery is good and it is quiet."

"..." Jiang He said in a low voice, "I don't have any plans for now."

"Oh...don't buy it for the time being..." Wang Aimei sighed, "Actually, it's better to buy the house as soon as possible. Do you know that your uncle bought the house last year, fortunately he bought it early! This year the house price has risen, and the price has risen evenly. 2000 yuan! How scary!"

"..." Jiang He's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he suddenly thought that the new house was bought with a mortgage on his parents' old house.

"But we bought a house, and the funds are still tight. You know, your uncle started a small business a few years ago and lost a lot of money. In this world, people's hearts are broken..."

"Aunt," Jiang He seemed to have finally lost his patience, and interrupted her chattering.

"Come here, do you need me?"

"..." Wang Aimei's face was a little embarrassed for a moment, she didn't expect Jiang He to be so direct, which was very different from the Jiang He she had imagined before.

Sun Jianshe finally couldn't sit still.

"Jiang He, to be honest, we do have something to ask you for."

"Last year, a friend of mine had some financial problems. I lent him money, but his business went from bad to worse, and the money didn't come back..."

Sun Jianshe seemed to be a little angry when he mentioned this matter, and his face was ugly.

Wang Aimei glared at him, and he eased his expression and returned to his smile: "But this mortgage... the bank's reminders are getting tighter every day, and we dare not delay..."

"We know that it is not easy for you to make money, but there is really no one to find uncle, see if you can..."

"You are looking for me..." Jiang He's voice changed a bit, "Is it for borrowing money?"

Wang Aimei hurriedly smoothed things over: "Hey, Xiaohe, you see, we have taken care of you for so many years, and now your uncle really has no money."

"I know that you are celebrities and earn a lot of money. It is said that you can get tens of millions for a movie! Let's see... can you help your uncle... It doesn't need too much, we will borrow... "

She hesitated for a moment, and stretched out her hand to compare the number, "120 million, that's all I borrowed. Don't worry, we will definitely pay it back, and I won't ask you for nothing."

120 million, which happened to be the price of the new house they bought, and there was even a lot left.

……

Jiang He became completely quiet, neither agreeing nor objecting, just sat so quietly with no expression on his face.

Sun Jianshe and Wang Aimei looked at each other, not understanding what Jiang He meant.

After a while, Sun Jianshe couldn't help interrupting the calm: "...Jiang He?"

"..." Jiang He finally had a reaction. He slowly raised his head and looked directly at Sun Jianshe, "I..."

There was a little hesitation and sadness in Jiang He's eyes, and Wang Aimei was suddenly happy.

In the past, when Jiang He showed this expression, it was a joke.

Their little nephew has always been soft-tempered. Even if he doesn't want to, he won't embarrass him too much.

Jiang He's tone was a little trembling, but he finished the sentence firmly.

"I don't borrow it."

……

……

There was a sudden silence in the room for a few seconds.

Wang Aimei suspected for a moment that she had heard it wrong: "...what?"

Sun Jianshe's expression changed: "Why?"

Jiang He shook his head slowly: "I don't have that much money."

Sun Jianshe's expression was obviously disbelieving, but he thought that there was still room for relaxation, so he prepared to continue talking.

But Jiang He said: "Even if there is... I won't borrow it."

……

This is a bit ugly, Wang Aimei stared at him blankly: "Xiaohe, what are you talking about?"

Jiang He's voice was very low: "...I thought that my house was the last thing you would ask me for."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two people in the room changed.

Sun Jianshe's face was very ugly. He glanced at Wang Aimei and said angrily, "Look, I just said it. It's nothing to come!"

Wang Aimei hurriedly tugged at his sleeves, tried to maintain a smiling face, and looked at Jiang He: "Xiao He, what you said is a bit hurtful, how can you say you want it?"

"You are not in City A, and we are in a hurry to use the money. The house is still unoccupied, so we will use it as a mortgage for a while."

She didn't say she would pay it back this time, but Jiang He didn't refute it either.

He has long been used to their greed, but he didn't expect that they would chase here.

Really didn't want to continue the conversation, Jiang He got up and said, "I still have to go to class, if you are free, go back to the hotel and rest."

Wang Aimei hurriedly stood up, but smiled awkwardly: "We came in a hurry, and we haven't booked a hotel yet... Is there any better hotel nearby?"

Jiang He shook his head: "I don't know, you should look it up yourself."

Sun Jianshe was completely annoyed by his attitude of going out and asking a few people to go by himself.

"Jiang He, we came all the way to City A just to see you! Why do you have such an attitude!"

Jiang He didn't speak, just looked down at a bracelet on his wrist, which was engraved with the mascot logo of City A.

It was a souvenir that almost everyone would buy when they came to city A for a trip.

They obviously came to Jiang He after wandering around in City A for a few times.

Jiang He's attitude was cold, and he didn't have much reaction to Sun Jianshe's words. On the contrary, Sun Jianshe and the two had no choice but to force Jiang He to give money, so they could only go back and find a solution.

Wang Aimei stood up, forced a smile and said: "Then Xiaohe, you go to class first, we will come to see you tomorrow."

Jiang He glanced at her and didn't reply.

Wang Aimei pulled Sun Jianshe to the door, and gave winks as she walked: "What's the rush, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"

The two walked to the door, only to find that Sun Hao hadn't come out after going to the bathroom.

Sun Jianshe scratched his neck and shouted, "What are you doing in the toilet!"

"Crack!" With a sound, the door of the cloakroom suddenly opened.

Sun Hao came out from inside, with an impatient expression on his face: "Why are you urging, this is not here."

Wang Aimei was taken aback: "Why did you go to that room?"

Sun Hao shrugged: "I'm bored, just wander around."

Sun Jianshe looked at him reproachfully: "Who told you to break into other people's houses!"

Sun Hao gave him a white look: "It's not his bedroom, it's the cloakroom."

"What time?" Wang Aimei asked.

Sun Hao looked at her with contempt: "The cloakroom is dedicated to storing clothes! He is a big star, and he can't fit in a room with too many clothes!"

Wang Aimei gave a "tsk", and the way she looked at Jiang He changed slightly.

Sun Jianshe scolded again at the door: "You can't go yet, wait for someone to chase you away!"

……

The three of them went out, still arguing endlessly.

Jiang He can even hear from their words, "What's so great, I don't even know who I am after making money", "What kind of star, I really think of myself as an emperor", "It's such a big house, and the decoration is so good." Okay, I also said that I have no money, pretending to be true"...

He closed the door expressionlessly and stood there for a long time without moving.

Looking back at the living room, it was already a mess, with messy footprints on the wooden floor, a lot of drinks in the half-open refrigerator, and a messy cloakroom that could be seen from the door.

……

It's hard for Jiang He to describe his emotions, he can't even spare the energy to feel angry or sad.

He just quietly picked up his mobile phone and called the hotel next to the company.

"Book a room, I'll come over later, book... I don't know how many days I will stay, so let's live in it first."

……

Putting down the phone, Jiang He went to pack his things.

In fact, there is nothing to clean up. He always has few things, so he can just take two changes of clothes.

Before going out, Jiang He suddenly remembered his script.

He immediately looked at the coffee table in front of the sofa, but he didn't see the script.

Jiang He was taken aback, walked over and looked through carefully.

Under a pile of melon seed skins and fruit pomace, he finally found it.

There was a large piece of dirt on the cover of the script. It was all oil from someone who didn't know where it came from, covering the words "Changshengzhan".

The dark yellow oil stains were like a banner showing off its power, clearly telling him that in the eyes of others, his so-called dream was only worth using to hold garbage.

……

At that moment, all Jiang He's emotions exploded.

I have endured many years of grievances, anger with nowhere to complain, and the despair that the last bit of affection for my uncle's family has been cut off.

He was so trembling that he could hardly stand up, he squatted down little by little, propped his hands on the ground, and managed to keep himself from falling.

There was a blur in front of his eyes, Jiang He didn't know whether he was crying or laughing, he only knew his current appearance, he must be very ugly.

"Don't cry..." Jiang He whispered to himself in a trembling, sobbing voice.

"Don't cry, they're not worth it, don't cry..."

……

……

It was already twelve o'clock when Yu He arrived at the gate of Shanhai Xingguang.

He rubbed his belly, feeling a little hungry too.

I don't know if Jiang He has eaten, if not, take him out to eat.

He parked the car, and when he was entering the gate of Shanhai Xingguang, he suddenly heard a few people swearing and talking, the voice was very loud, causing many people around him to look sideways.

"Come here for nothing... This kid is really..."

"It's not in vain..."

"It's unlucky, tomorrow...Jiang He..."

Suddenly hearing the word "Jiang He", Yu He paused and looked over there.

It looked like a family of three, a couple in their 40s and a young man were walking out.

None of their faces were very good-looking, and the middle-aged man in the lead had a hostile expression on his face, swearing non-stop.

The three walked out of the company, but Yu He frowned deeply.

what happened?

He strode towards the security room.

"Mr. Yu, you are back from a business trip." The security guard in the security room stood up respectfully.

"Those three people," Yu He pointed to the three people who had gone far away, leaving only a faint back, "what are they doing?"

The security guard glanced at them: "Oh, they are Jiang He's relatives, they came to look for him."

Yu He's expression changed: "What?!"

Seeing that Yu He didn't seem to understand, the security guard explained again: "That man said he was Jiang He's uncle, and he came to see Jiang He."

Yu He's eyes widened suddenly: "You let them in?!"

"Yes, yes..." The security guard was frightened by his appearance and stumbled, "I called Jiang He's room, Jiang He answered, and called the man's uncle."

Yu He gritted his teeth: "So you let them go up?!"

The security guard was still confused: "What's wrong?"

Yu He's expression changed completely: "Let me ask you, did Jiang He tell them to go up?"

"..." The security guard suddenly understood, and his face turned pale.

Yu He panted heavily: "You really did a good job!"

He didn't bother to talk about security, turned around and strode towards the elevator.

Running outside Jiang He's room, Yu He took a breath and reached out to knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong."

There was no response at all.

Yu He's heart lifted instantly: "Jiang He? Are you okay?"

"... Jiang He?"

……

Seeing that no one responded, Yu He called the company's security office again: "Check the surveillance to see if Jiang He is still in the room."

After a while, the security office replied: "There is no picture of Mr. Jiang He going out in the surveillance with the door open."

"..." Yu He became anxious again in an instant, and continued to knock on the door, "Jiang He! It's me! Yu He!"

……

After a while, someone at the door finally answered him.

"...Brother Yu He, do you have anything to do with me?"

Hearing Jiang He's voice, Yu He breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, I just came to see you."

"Well," the voice in the door was so small that it was almost impossible to hear what he was saying unless you listened carefully, "Brother Yu He, I'm a little tired today and want to rest."

Jiang He's tone was polite and flat, but Yu He's intuition was wrong: "Jiang He, can you open the door first?"

"..." Jiang He didn't speak.

Yu He was sweating anxiously. He clenched his fists and thought for a long time before turning around and calling Fu Shanhai.

……

Fu Shanhai dealt with Ye Lele's contract issues as quickly as possible, not even in the mood to bargain with the other party for the penalty, and went straight to the car after leaving the door.

When passing a traffic light, Fu Shanhai turned his head to look at the storefront next to him.

It was a very conspicuous pink storefront.

It seems to be a cake shop that Jiang He likes very much.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Fu Shanhai stopped the car and went to the store to buy a freshly made red velvet cake.

At this point in time, Jiang He should have had lunch, so let's treat it as dessert.

Just as Fu Shanhai got the cake, his cell phone rang suddenly.

He turned and walked outside the door, and picked up the phone.

"Yu He, what's the matter? Where's Jiang He?"

……

Fu Shanhai's hand that pushed the store door stopped suddenly: "What did you say?"

……

As Yu He said more and more details on the phone, Fu Shanhai's face darkened almost instantly.

There is also a hint of anger and distress.

... That family, that family that he had already investigated the situation, but hadn't figured out how to deal with it, dared to come to Jiang He's trouble.

The dark clouds in Fu Shanhai's eyes quickly gathered, and when he heard Yu He say that Jiang He was hiding in the room and didn't want to come out, his breath suddenly suffocated again.

Just thinking of Jiang He's possible picture now, he couldn't bear it

"..." Fu Shanhai took a deep breath and said quickly, "Always pay attention to Jiang He's situation, I'll be right over."

After hanging up the phone, Fu Shanhai slammed open the store door and strode towards the parking lot.
